Chapter 1424: The Lord's Thoughts
In the deepest part of the Lion King Palace, hearing Xiao Jing's worry, the other strong men on our side also frowned, and the vigilance in their eyes became even more intense.
"Don't worry, if this guy is still connected to the 'Guixu', then wouldn't he have been found by other 'Eclipses' a thousand years ago?"
"No, to be more precise, from the very beginning, even if this guy hid on the White Knight's body, he would be discovered by the "Returner" in the first place. How could he escape the pursuit?"
Lei Xiao had obviously considered this a long time ago, and said calmly: "It is not difficult to see from this that when this guy decided to escape from the depths of the earth veins, he had already found a way to cut off the connection with the "Returner". "
"Master of the human race, you are indeed quite clever."
After a while, the White Knight slowly said, "Yes, although it cost me a lot, I finally succeeded in cutting off contact with the Guixu One and will never be found by him again."
"Thank you for your compliment, Excellency."
Lei Xiao smiled slightly and asked, "We have been chatting for such a long time, I wonder how I should address you, sir?"
"Master of the human race, you don't have to try to get closer to me."
The White Knight remained expressionless and responded, "I just said it before, the Cataclysm will definitely happen, and you and I will never have any intersection. Although I have left my kind, I am still Eclipse, and this will never change."
"Sir, I think you got one thing wrong. From the very beginning, I never thought of becoming friends with you."
Lei Xiao still maintained a faint smile and said, "But you just said that we are on the same journey, both pursuing the truth that has been hidden in this world for a long time. Since we are destined to be companions on this rugged road, isn't it natural to ask each other's name?"
"Okay, but I don't have a name. Under the coordination of "Guixuzhe", "Eclipse" doesn't need a name and can perform its duties."
The White Knight frowned and thought for a moment, then finally said, "But you can call me the Seeker."
"A seeker? The road ahead is long and arduous, which is indeed very consistent with our current situation."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly, and then said: "Then Seeker, since you can see the memories of the White Knight, you must have heard about the Battle of the Dragon's Lair. At that time, your kind became the minions of a certain dragon clan, and parasitized many giant dragons. It seems that some "erosion" may not be as transcendent as you said."
"I think you have made a mistake. We Eclipses will never be manipulated by anyone, especially those Purple Eclipses. They are the most cunning ones."
The Seeker looked calm and said calmly, "Although I didn't see it with my own eyes, it's not hard to guess that they only allowed the giant dragon to temporarily gain a small part of the power of the "Guixu", that's all. As for what kind of cooperation they reached with the mastermind behind the giant dragon, that's unknown."
"So the ability of 'Guixu' can be shared?"
Hearing this, both Lei Xiao and the other strong men present couldn't help but frown.
This undoubtedly means that the mastermind behind Boruso is obviously closely related to these "Purple Eclipses".
"I hope Hong Ye will not be troubled by the mastermind for the time being. After all, I cannot reach the depths of the outer domain where the Red Dragon Territory is located, and I cannot even reach Ice Stone City."
Lei Xiao took a deep breath and thought to himself.
"Even if they obtain the power of the 'Guixu', it is only a small part of it, because no powerful person of the Ten Thousand Races can bear or touch the consciousness of the 'Guixu'. Once they try to usurp the power, the best outcome is to fall into madness like that unfortunate old bard."
The Seeker crossed his arms and added.
"But why would those Eclipses choose to cooperate with the mastermind? The goal of the Eclipse is to destroy everything. Isn't this a contradiction?"
Xiao Jing tilted her head, her fair face full of confusion.
"This is not a contradiction. You can destroy your opponent from the front, and you can also destroy your opponent from the back. It's just that the means to achieve the goal are different."
The Seeker glanced at Xiao Jing and responded expressionlessly: "As the supreme consciousness, the Guixu will naturally explore any possibility to ensure the successful completion of the mission."
"After all, the rest of us 'Eclipses' can only arrive here in small numbers through the explosion of magical veins, and cannot appear on a large scale. Didn't you guess this? Otherwise, the catastrophe would have come long ago, and all races would have ceased to exist long ago."
Hearing this, all of our warriors were filled with awe and at the same time, they all thought of the same question.
Ariel didn't hesitate and expressed the confusion in everyone's mind: "Sir Seeker, why can't all of you come here from the depths of the magical earth veins now?"
"Isn't this obvious? Because there is an extremely powerful magic restriction that separates us from here, deep in the magic veins, like an insurmountable mountain. We have tried every possible means for thousands of years, but we can only get here through the explosion of the magic veins."
The Seeker snorted and responded, "We call this huge magical barrier covering the entire plate the Magic Barrier, because it is so fine that even magic particles have difficulty passing through it."
Hearing this, all the strong men present were excited in their hearts.
Although most people had more or less thought of this before, there must be something that trapped the "Eclipse" for three thousand years. It seems that there really is such a heaven-defying magical restriction, and it covers the entire earth!
Lei Xiao, who was surrounded by many powerful men, had a frown on his face and his brain was working fast.
This undoubtedly proves another thing, that is, the catastrophe was probably arranged long ago, and the root of all this is naturally the heaven-defying existence that cast this magical ban.
Judging from the information he had currently obtained, there was only one possible possibility for the true identity of this heaven-defying existence, and that was that it was undoubtedly the "reminder" of a god.
This can be proved by the fact that the "prompt sound" created a series of events such as Xiao Jing's [God's Stone], and gave the stone elves the power to fight against "Eclipse".
"So, could it be that all of this was carefully planned by the "Reminder"? But as a god, why would he do this and watch the inevitable final battle between the myriad races and the "Eclipse" begin?"
"No, that's not entirely true. Could it be that the arrival of the Billion Lords is also to fight against the Eclipse? What about the Plate War? What is the purpose of the Prompt Voice?"
Thinking of this in his heart, Lei Xiao took a deep breath slowly.
Although he knew the truth about the Cataclysm, he was still clearly some distance away from the truth of this world.
"According to my previous thoughts, all this must be related to the blank period. There is no doubt about that."
"Besides that, there is one thing that cannot be ignored, and that is the heaven-defying magic restriction that the other party mentioned. I'm afraid there is another mystery in it."
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao pulled his thoughts back to reality and asked the Seeker, "Sir, the function of the demon-blocking wall you just mentioned is not just to prevent you from coming here, right?"
"Oh?"
The seeker also tilted his head like Xiao Jing and continued to listen to Lei Xiao's words.
But compared with Xiaojing's playful and cute movements, the other party's crooked head is no different from that of a zombie.
"If this magic restriction only serves as a barrier, and you were able to bypass it through the loophole of the magic leyline explosion, then the catastrophe would have already begun."
Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes and said, "Just take the time when you escaped from the depths of the magic earth veins in the capital of Loren. The explosion of the magic earth veins was not formed naturally. Instead, the allied forces took the initiative to destroy the absolute defense barrier connecting the capital of Loren to the earth veins."
"Your Majesty is right. Since Eclipse has already reached a cooperation with the mastermind behind Boruso, it is not difficult to follow suit, and even complete this kind of outbreak in batches."
Gray Elder obviously thought of this as well. He stroked his gray beard and said, "It's not hard to see from this that the reason you didn't do this is because you are still subject to some kind of restriction. The function of the Demon-Blocking Wall is definitely not just a barrier."
"If my guess is correct, the Demon Barrier is probably the absolute nemesis of the Eclipse. Even if it comes into contact with it, the Eclipse will be reduced to ashes. However, the temporary passage established by the explosion of the magic earth veins is extremely unstable and can easily touch the Demon Barrier. This is the real reason why the Eclipse has not appeared in large numbers.
"It seems that I have underestimated you again."
The Seeker heard this and showed a bit of helplessness in his eyes. He then said calmly: "But you are only half right. If that were the case, perhaps the "Returners" would also bring all the "Erosions" here at all costs. After all, our reproduction speed is not inferior to yours."
"But the reality is that after countless attempts, the 'Returners' discovered that when a certain number of 'Eclipses' arrive here, the effectiveness of the magic barrier will be greatly enhanced, and even the explosion of the magic veins will no longer be able to find a loophole. The 'Eclipses' that come here through the loopholes are extremely limited and cannot cause substantial damage to the myriad races."
"After all, the owners of the God Stone are not rare among first-rate forces, or even second-rate forces. Many forces also know of Yu Deng's existence, and have even fought against him many times."
The Seeker shrugged and continued, "To sum up, this is the key reason why Eclipse is still unable to fully arrive here."
"This is a rather magical mechanism. Could it be that this was also arranged in advance by the "prompt sound"? In order to let all races know in advance how to fight against "Eclipse"? "
Lei Xiao nodded slightly, and his brain started working rapidly again.
"No, on the contrary, perhaps it is to allow Eclipse to adapt to the environment here in advance, and prepare for sweeping across the world."
While Lei Xiao was thinking, our powerful men looked very excited.
When everyone first realized that there was a hole in the Demon-Barrier, they were all worried. They didn't expect that there was such a powerful defensive measure!
"I advise you not to be happy too soon."
Feeling the excitement of our people, the Seeker frowned slightly and said, "When I passed through the Demon Barrier, it had already loosened up. I'm afraid it is in a precarious state now. It may collapse at any time. Then it will be the day of your destruction."
At this point, the Seeker shook his head helplessly and added: "Of course, I can't escape the judgment of the 'Returner', but before that, I'm sure you won't let me go, right?"
The Seeker looked directly into Lei Xiao's dark eyes and said calmly: "Master of the Human Race, since you are capable of protecting the White Knight, you can attack me. I admit that I am no match for you."
"Your Excellency, what are you talking about? You and I are on the same path. How could I attack you?"
Lei Xiao shrugged and said with a smile.
"Master of the human race, are you serious?"
The seeker's eyes widened, and he said in amazement, "I am Eclipse!"
"I know, but you are also a seeker, aren't you? Besides, no matter what the reason is, it is a fact that you saved the White Knight in the first place."
Lei Xiao finished his words, immediately stopped smiling, and said, "These two points at least give me no reason to eliminate you right now, but please remember one thing, if you try to play some tricks, I will never let you go."
There is actually another reason why Lei Xiao said this.
That is, the other party is the only "Eclipse" we can communicate with at present, and it is certain that there is obviously a lot of information about the other party that has not yet been discovered, and these may become the key to our future.
"In that case, I am also tired and hope to never see you again."
Hearing this, the seeker didn't say anything else but just stood there stiffly.
After a moment, the White Knight collapsed on the ground again. When he stood up again, covering his head, his dazed eyes gradually turned back into the long-lost gentleness.
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I'm sorry to cause you trouble!"
After completely coming to his senses, the White Knight covered his splitting headache and knelt down before Lei Xiao.
"Please stand up quickly. Far from causing me any trouble, you have actually done a great service. You have given us a lot of new insights into the Eclipse and its current status."
Lei Xiao bent down and helped the White Knight up, smiling and said, "It's just that the situation is special, and your actions will be restricted recently."
"Your Majesty, please just give me your orders. I will fight for your Majesty without blinking an eye, so why would I care about these things?"
The White Knight put on the mask again and nodded heavily at Lei Xiao.
"White Knight, then you will wait outside the palace. I will decide where you will go in a moment."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly, and then ordered Chris and others to escort the other party away.
When the hall was quiet again, Gray Old Man stepped forward, his wrinkled face full of solemnity. (End of this chapter)
