Thick black mist and death aura lingered, and a huge white city surrounded by blood stood in front of it.
On the battlefield where magic artillery fire roared, Lei Xiao's nervous expression was palpable when he heard the responses from Xiaojing and Xiaojie.
Since the breath of the [God Stone] suddenly came from under the ground, it can only mean one thing, that is, something must have happened under the ground, which caused the weak stone elf to wake up.
After all, if they are in a weak state of complete sleep, even the sixth-level Xiaojing and Xiaojie will have difficulty sensing the aura of the weak stone elf.
In this way, coupled with what I just speculated, the other party may have other means to deal with us, and the situation becomes obvious.
Although I don’t know what the specific method is, the danger is likely to come from below the ground!
"Your Majesty, what's wrong?"
Noticing Lei Xiao's abnormality, Loris and Xina cast doubtful glances over him.
"You two, suspend the attack. Let's leave this area first."
Lei Xiao had no time to explain and immediately nodded to the two of them.
"Understood!"
Hearing the sound, although the two of them looked puzzled, they immediately conveyed Lei Xiao's order.
After receiving the order, the roar of our magic cannon had just stopped, and before the military formation had time to retreat, the ground beneath our feet suddenly shook violently, making it difficult for many strong men to stand firm and began to sway back and forth.
Fortunately, Lei Xiao had already notified the possible abnormal situation underground in time, so the experts did not panic too much. They quickly adjusted their pace and quickly flew towards the rear.
In the blink of an eye, after our military formation had moved hundreds of meters, a sudden change occurred.
As the tremors intensified, the entire ground suddenly collapsed and began to fall downwards at a rapid speed.
The area of this collapse is extremely vast, covering the entire area where our military formation is located. It is undoubtedly a huge change.
Faced with the sudden step on the ground, before anyone could react, an irresistible heavy pressure suddenly fell from the sky, like an invisible giant hand that slapped hard on the bodies of all the strong men on our side.
Caught off guard, not only the physically strong ones, but also the magic strong ones and the fairies, dragonborn and other soldiers who could fly had their wings and membranes stiffened, unable to flap even a single centimeter.
"It's the suppression of the gravity array!"
As soon as Xina's surprised words fell, our entire military formation was already falling downwards at a rapid speed along with the falling ground.
Fortunately, our side is full of powerful people after all, including almost all our wisest magisters and great magisters, and all kinds of tongue-twisting chants started to sound.
"Group Levitation Technique!"
"Anti-gravity shield wall!"
"Sylph's asylum!"
"The light wind!"
…
Buffered by a series of high-level group spells, our falling speed obviously slowed down, and the unstoppable gravity suppression also weakened.
"The soft giant tree grows!"
"Magic Giant Bed Mushroom Swarm!"
"Bounce Magic Garden!"
"A wide-area vine network!"
"Hands of the forest!"
…
Then, with the combined efforts of Shuerte and other strong men from the tree people, Mandela, wood, and flower fairy tribes who were good at plant spells, they created a soft, strange magical forest directly at the end of the fall as a buffer zone.
Not long after, Lei Xiao felt like he had landed on an extremely soft and thick cushion, and jumped off a giant magic mushroom.
Looking around, the nearby strong men on our side also landed safely under the continuous magic buffer, but the gravel and dust that also fell from the sky stirred up dust all over the sky.
As for the black fog above our heads, it has obviously become more distant, which undoubtedly means that our group has arrived in an underground space.
Seeing this scene, Lei Xiao was frightened in his heart and couldn't help but take a deep breath slowly.
Although this place is not very far from the ground, under the violent suppression of the sudden gravity magic, even this distance is enough to make an unprepared fifth-level strong man fall into a pulp.
Fortunately, all the powerful people on our side showed their talents and used multiple buffering and protection measures in succession, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
"What a sinister trick!"
Loris jumped down from a magic vine net in disgrace. While shaking the thick mane on his neck, he spat and said angrily: "No wonder you didn't see the opponent's magic trap along the way. It turns out that those cunning people
The bastard has a big dick in here!"
"Fortunately, His Majesty the Human Race noticed the danger coming from below the ground in time, so the soldiers were well prepared, otherwise the consequences would have been worse."
Xina was obviously much more calm. She swam gracefully with her snake tail twisted, looked at Lei Xiao and said, "This time, it's thanks to His Majesty the Human Race."
"Chief Huangsha is so polite. It's all because you all showed your talents and used buffering measures one after another, so that we can be safe and sound."
Lei Xiao smiled lightly, then thought of something again, and blurted out: "Have you two discovered something?"
"I found out, that means the lich must die!"
Loris' anger obviously had not dissipated, and he spat again.
"Your Majesty, you want to say that the opponent's gravity circle seems to have dissipated, right?"
Xina rolled her eyes at Loris and immediately responded: "In this way, it will be easy for us to return to the ground."
Before Xina could finish her words, a series of deafening magic explosions suddenly sounded not far away, causing a violent wave of energy.
Upon hearing the sound, Lei Xiao and the two leaders looked stern and immediately rushed towards the location of the incident.
When he got closer, Lei Xiao noticed that a deep pit had been blasted out of the ground, with some blackened limbs and broken arms scattered around, and thick smoke still rising.
Seeing Lei Xiao and others coming, a swamp murloc elder came to Xina and quickly reported: "I'm sorry, sir, it was the old man's poor command that caused the two tribesmen to step on each other's magic trap.
!”
"It's not your fault. Everyone, stand still and don't move. It seems like this place is still full of fatal dangers!"
Xina waved her hand and raised her eyebrows as a reminder.
Lei Xiao immediately took out a bunch of sixth-level detection scrolls and ordered the surrounding experts to activate them and check them.
Sure enough, as waves of energy surged, the outlines of a large number of magic traps emerged, densely distributed in every location around us.
During this process, Lei Xiao further noticed.
As the dust gradually fell, the appearance of this underground space was also revealed.
I saw that the ground here was laid with neat bricks, and the same was true for the walls. It was obviously not a natural formation, but an underground city that exuded an ancient and vicissitudes of life.
Moreover, it is not difficult to tell from the patterns engraved on the walls that these are not ancient ruins from before the Blank Age, but are from the same alliance force that was destroyed by the Lich.
"Your Majesty, the human race, there are many traps here, we must return to the ground first!"
Xina's awe-inspiring voice sounded, and Loris also echoed: "Yes, as long as you build a magic staircase, it is not difficult to return to the ground!"
"That's right, we will take action immediately."
Lei Xiao waved his big hand, and the earth-attribute powerhouses led by Chris and Fanny chanted, and a spacious and thick magic staircase quickly condensed into shape and stretched rapidly toward the ground.
However, just as the magic staircase reached the halfway point, it suddenly stopped, causing Chris and others who were casting the spell to look at each other in confusion.
"Your Majesty, there is an invisible barrier blocking the casting of spells. We will go over and take a look."
Chris caressed her chest and saluted Lei Xiao, then she and Fanny flapped their wings and flew straight towards where the stairs stopped.
But just as they approached there, a look of pain appeared on the white faces of Chris and Fanny, and even the frequency of flapping their wings became slower and slower. When the two lowered their flying altitude and left that position, this
Only then did things return to normal.
"Your Majesty, the gravity circle has not dissipated, but is suspended in mid-air, making it impossible for us to move forward one step further."
Fanny landed in front of Lei Xiao again, frowning and saying: "It was the gravity circle that prevented the formation of the magic staircase!"
"It turns out that the invisible barrier is the sudden gravity formation. The opponent is really good at calculating."
Loris snorted coldly and said, "It seems that if we want to return to the ground, we have to find a way to break the gravity circle first."
"But this gravity formation is so powerful and covers such a wide area. The source will never be here. The other party must have been prepared for a long time."
Xina gently rubbed her white chin and thought: "In this case, it will be very difficult for us to locate and destroy the formation."
Just as everyone was thinking about the next countermeasures, countless bone spears and bone arrows suddenly fell from the sky, coming towards us overwhelmingly with overwhelming killing intent.
Especially when passing through the gravity circle, the speed of those bone spears and bone arrows has been further improved. In almost the blink of an eye, they are very close to us!
However, the strong men on our side counterattacked subconsciously, but just like the magic ladder just now, they were easily blocked by the gravity barrier and could not touch the opponent at all.
For a moment, the boiling murderous intent and the rich death aura stirred back and forth, shaking the hearts of every strong person on our side.
It is not difficult to see from the fierce energy fluctuations that the opponent's attacks are all at level five or above, which is enough to pose a fatal threat to us!
"The lord's protection!"
At Lei Xiao's signal, Xiaojie immediately launched an absolute defensive barrier. The powerful people on our side who cooperated closely also immediately supplied energy to the barrier, and then barely blocked the opponent's fierce attack.
Looking up, I saw that the ground was already surrounded by an army of lich and undead, causing dense rains of bone spears and arrows to come one after another, roaring toward our people crazily.
"The road we came from has been completely blocked."
Lei Xiao looked at the dim light of our absolute defense barrier above his head, then looked into the dark depths of the underground city, and said, "It seems that we only have one option left: heading towards the unknown."
After hearing Lei Xiao's words, Xina and Loris also nodded.
Whether it's the gravity circle or the lich and undead surrounding them on the ground, the opponent's purpose couldn't be more obvious.
That is to drive us to the depths of the underground city, where a dragnet may have been set up.
But now we are on the verge of life and death. If we don't continue to advance, when the absolute defense barrier collapses, the only result is that the entire army will be annihilated.
Therefore, although the road ahead is bleak, we are left with only this option.
"These damn bastards!"
Loris clenched his fists loudly, but finally had no choice but to let go. Xina also looked the same, and began to assist us in dispelling the magic trap ahead under Lei Xiao's command.
Unlike the two leaders, Lei Xiao's eyes were still as firm as iron.
There is another extremely important reason why I chose to go deep into this strange dungeon, and that is to look for the weak [Stone of God].
From the current situation, it is not difficult to see that the [God's Stone] must have accidentally awakened during the opponent's activation of the gravity circle, and it may be able to provide us with some help.
Since we have no choice, we might as well create a brand new option.
It didn't take long, with the concerted efforts of our strong men and the help of high-level detection scrolls, all the magic traps in the way were quickly eliminated, and we were out of the opponent's attack range.
Facing our departure, the lich and undead people surrounding the ground had no other reaction and just looked at everything coldly. This further proved that the other party had already made plans for the next step.
After completely entering this strange dungeon, Lei Xiao noticed.
The space here is extremely huge, and every passage is so spacious that our army formation of ten thousand people does not seem crowded at all. If it were not for the fact that the sculptures engraved on the walls are the same size as normal, Lei Xiao would even think that this is a Titan.
A masterpiece of the family.
Although this place is extremely old, there are a lot of cracks in the stone walls and the ground, and the construction technology is somewhat inferior, but in terms of scale, it is not inferior to the ancient ruins of the blank era.
"Your Majesty the Human Race, if I remember correctly, back then, this capital area was the last place where the Lich conquered. After taking this place into its possession, the Lich completely destroyed the city on the ground. Unexpectedly, there was actually a huge underground city.
There is such a huge building hidden inside.”
Xina's beautiful eyes were full of surprise, and she said with admiration: "Back then, this alliance force was the overlord of all third-rate forces. If it still existed, I'm afraid it would have grown into a behemoth."
"It's a pity that they don't know why they were targeted by the lich."
Loris shrugged and said: "There are even records in ancient books that it was precisely because they were greedy for strength and awakened the sleeping lich that they finally reaped the consequences. After all, in the more than a thousand years before that and the blank era,
Liches almost never appear."
"It seems that there is an unknown story here."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly and looked into the depths of the passage ahead.
