Noticing the changes in front, Lei Xiao and others in the center and rear of the team immediately tensed up their nerves and tightened their grip on the weapons in their hands.
Judging from the nervous expressions of everyone, it was obvious that they had not yet fully recovered from the shocking scene in the mirage just now.
Feeling awe-struck in his heart, Lei Xiao stabilized his mind and looked toward the front of the team.
In a corner of the mine, I saw a group of trembling strange figures huddled up. Judging from their clothing, they were exactly the same as those in the mirage just now.
"Why are there still illusions? Are we still in a mirage?"
Broy's eyes widened, with a look of confusion and nervousness on his face.
"No, there are no illusion energy fluctuations. This is not an illusion."
Xiao Huan followed closely beside Lei Xiao and denied: "They definitely did not appear here through mirage."
"If it's not a mirage, then why can we still see these images?"
Fanny also looked like she didn't dare to be careless at all. The top of the staff in her hand was filled with faint magical power, and she was obviously ready to attack at any time.
As Fanny finished speaking, the faces of others on our team became even more confused, and beads of sweat even began to appear on their foreheads.
It has to be said that after experiencing the unforgettable mirage just now, such a vision really makes people dare not be careless at all.
Just when everyone still didn't understand what happened, those figures obviously noticed the presence of everyone on our side. They slowly raised their heads, revealing pale faces and pairs of bloodshot eyes.
's scarlet eyes.
It is not difficult to tell from the faces and features of these strange figures that they are all dark elf miners.
"We are just a group of pathetic people abandoned by God, why are we being driven out and killed?!"
The leader of the dark elf miners roared angrily, then raised the war hammer in his hand and attacked and killed everyone on our side.
Surrounding the leader of the dark elf miners, other dark elves also had ferocious faces, and they all made the same attack movements, and all fired towards us.
Suddenly, a corner of the mine that was originally calm as water was filled with murderous aura and became turbulent.
Faced with such a sudden attack, although the hearts of everyone on our side were full of questions, they did not panic at all, and they all lowered their bodies and prepared for the response.
I felt an inexplicable murderous aura coming towards me, especially the bright half-elves who were leading the battle. They were obviously extremely well-trained. The dazzling magic power and sharp blades immediately formed an airtight and deadly net towards the opponent.
Welcoming him.
However, at the moment when the several light half-elf physical powerhouses headed by Myron were about to come into contact with each other, the dark elf miners with ferocious faces and crazy attacks disappeared one after another, as if they had never appeared.
With the disappearance of the dark elf miners, the entire environment suddenly became quiet again, leaving only our people who were still raising their weapons and looking at each other with confused expressions.
"Why did they suddenly disappear again? Where did they go?"
Broy carefully controlled two sixth-level alchemy puppets to stand guard beside him, still looking like he didn't dare to relax.
"It is still unknown, but judging from the fact that the other party can react to us and even release murderous intent, it is indeed completely different from the illusion in the mirage just now. After all, the mirage just now is just a recording type of illusion.
There is no way they will react to us."
Ruth also did not dare to be careless at all. While staring closely at the surroundings, she responded: "I think these dark elves should be entities, but they disappeared for some reason."
"But it was more than three thousand years ago. Why are they still exactly the same as they were then?"
Fanny frowned and said with confusion on her face: "I have never encountered such an incredible thing."
"It is indeed puzzling, but what is more concerning is the words of the leading dark elf."
Chris took over the conversation and said thoughtfully: "They call themselves people abandoned by God. What does this mean?"
"I think this is not difficult to explain."
Lei Xiao pondered for a moment and responded: "Based on the analysis of the scene in the mirage just now, we have reached a consensus on several points. One of them is that there was a god-level attack here, so that the dark elves at that time had no chance to fight back.
power."
"What is certain is that the dark elves at that time must have been favored by some gods, but at least judging from the scenes in the mirage, no other gods came to save the dark elves, so that most of the dark elves just
Praying in vain."
Lei Xiao's words ended here and he concluded: "At this point, the answer is self-evident."
"In other words, do these dark elves think that they have been abandoned by the gods? That's why they call themselves people abandoned by the gods."
Ruth gently rubbed her white chin, and then said: "It makes sense to think about it this way, but then again, why did the gods of the dark elves watch the people they favored being attacked? This does not make sense.
After all, the gods are omnipotent beings, and logically speaking, they will never sit idly by."
"This is the mystery of the Blank Age. Maybe these gods were also attacked. Maybe these gods were the attackers themselves. Maybe the gods no longer favored this land at that time."
Lei Xiao shrugged and responded: "As long as we understand the truth about the blank era, all this will naturally be solved."
"As for the dark elves that attacked us just now, although we don't know how they appeared, judging from the current situation, they are not a big threat. You can just deal with them with caution."
After hearing Lei Xiao's words, everyone's confused expressions gradually disappeared, and they all gathered their minds again and focused on the surrounding scene.
"Your Majesty the Human Race, speaking of which, could the abnormal energy fluctuation we felt at the beginning be the dark elves that attacked us just now?"
Broy tried his best to suppress his nervousness and asked Lei Xiao again.
"The energy fluctuations of those dark elves just now were full of violence, without any cover-up. They were obviously completely different from the obscure energy fluctuations at the beginning."
Lei Xiao carefully recalled what he saw and heard in his mind, and responded: "The difference between the two is still obvious."
"I agree with His Majesty the Human Race's view."
Ruth nodded and agreed: "In those dark elves just now, I felt a paradoxical power of vitality, which is indeed completely different from the obscure power of vitality at the beginning."
"Your Excellency Ruth, what does the paradoxical power of vitality mean?"
Nar's dragon face was still confused, and he asked: "Are the dark elves who attacked us just now not real life forms? Then what are they?"
"This is what puzzles me. They seem to be something between living things and non-living things."
A trace of confusion also appeared on Ruth's face, and she smiled helplessly and said: "It's not just you, I have never encountered this kind of situation."
"First there was the obscure power of vitality, then there was the sudden mirage, and now it is a specious life form? It seems that the harvest of this ancient mine is more than we imagined."
Lei Xiao clapped his hands gently, motioning for everyone to continue exploring, and said: "Let us take a closer look at what kind of secrets are hidden in this ancient mine."
After saying that, Lei Xiao gave Ruth another meaningful look.
The secret that Lei Xiao was referring to naturally also included what was speculated at the beginning about what Ruth and other bright half-elves really wanted in this ancient mine.
"His Majesty the Human Race is right, we must not let these restrict our steps."
Ruth didn't seem to notice Lei Xiao's intention, and quickly reorganized the light half-elf's exploration formation, once again walking at the front of the team.
After that, the group of people discovered several groups of dark elf miners similar to the ones before. Apart from the differences in number and appearance, there were almost no other differences.
Most of them suddenly disappeared during the attack on us. Only a few chose to escape after seeing us, and soon disappeared from our sight.
I have to say that although these specious life forms did not have a real contest with us, the sudden appearance of a group of strangers at the corner and the sudden murderous sight still made our group feel awe-inspiring.
Don't dare to slack off at all.
Unknowingly, a strange atmosphere began to quietly permeate our team.
"Your Majesty, the human race, the management area of this nearby area should be ahead."
In front of a passage exuding a deep atmosphere, Ruth nodded to Lei Xiao and said: "The management area is the core of the entire mining area. It is located in the most conspicuous locations throughout the mine. Generally, it is the mine
The place where the leader of the field works and stores precious resources has the most rigorous magic traps deployed, and it may even be the location of the self-destruction circle, so please wait a moment and let us clean it up first."
"I understand, then I'll help you all."
Lei Xiao heard the sound and led all the strong men on our side to take a few steps back.
"Your Majesty, you are welcome. I will come as soon as I can."
Ruth slowly took a deep breath, and then led a group of bright half-elves into the passage, and soon disappeared around the corner of the passage.
At the entrance of the passage, Lei Xiao looked like his eyes were slightly narrowed.
Although Ruth's face was solemn just now, there was a little excitement in her words. From this, it is not difficult to see that what the other party really wants is likely to be in a certain management area of this ancient mine.
But at present, this ancient mine is treacherous and full of agencies. It is not easy to find what you need. Therefore, Lei Xiao is not worried that the other party will gain something so quickly. Instead, he can follow the other party's footprints
, to determine the approximate location of the thing you really want.
The reason why Lei Xiao is so concerned about what the light half-elf really needs is mainly out of curiosity.
Firstly, they were curious about what they really wanted, and secondly, the light half-elves did not hesitate to lower themselves to find the reason behind it. After all, a group of light half-elves traveled across mountains and rivers to search in the ruins of the ancient mines of the dark elves.
Something in itself is something of great interest.
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this, a burst of extremely violent energy fluctuations suddenly came from the corner of the passage ahead, and then, waves of unfamiliar vast aura suddenly swept out, exuding a strong murderous aura.
"Your Majesty the human race, it is the energy fluctuation of the summoning magic circle. It seems that Sir Ruth and the others accidentally triggered the magic trap!"
I saw Nar's dragon face guarding the door full of solemnity and nervousness, and he quickly said to Lei Xiao: "What should we do?"
"Of course we can't sit idly by and ignore it."
Lei Xiao turned his palm up, and several sixth-level detection scrolls immediately appeared.
I saw him activating into the passage and saying, "Let's go and take a look."
After that, a group of our strong men flew out in formation under the command of Lei Xiao and galloped towards the passage.
As a group of people moved forward, after passing the corner of the passage, our group of people quickly came to an extremely spacious hall.
In the center of the hall, ten bright half-elves including Ruth were tightly surrounded by more than twice the number of black stone golem puppets. Judging from the energy fluctuations, it was clear that the opponents were all at the sixth level.
At the same time that everyone on our side appeared, the golden magic lines covering the black stone men were in full bloom, and they rose into the air one by one, swinging giant fists from all directions, aiming directly at Ruth and others in the center.
For a time, the attacks of more than 20 sixth-level powerhouses were overwhelming, and the cold energy fluctuations stirred up the space, blowing the thick dust covered in the entire hall into wind and sand.
"Fortress of Light!"
Ruth and others also reacted very quickly. Thick magical walls composed of light curtains quickly condensed in an attempt to slow down the opponent's offensive.
The thick black fist smashed the magic wall, making a crisp sound of glass breaking. In front of the demon puppets who were obviously more powerful, the defensive spells cast by Ruth and other sixth-level magic-type powerhouses were obviously worthless.
carry.
But at this moment, our strong men and dragon-born strong men led by Lei Xiao had already arrived one after another, and they were fighting in a melee with each other.
Among them, especially the flower and wood goblin warriors led by Fanny and Chris, they also summoned more than a dozen sixth-order golem puppets of different shapes, instantly wiping out the opponent's
Strength advantage.
After Lei Xiao and others joined the battle, the hall, which was already filled with murderous aura, suddenly became violent. One after another majestic momentum collided with each other in mid-air, causing continuous strong winds to stir everywhere.
But while our strong men were having a fierce battle with the sudden demon puppets, no one noticed that a mysterious black figure quietly poked his head out and was silently watching all this from the shadows at the corner of the passage. ()
