Feeling the murderous aura rushing towards them, Lei Xiao, Hu Zhang and other subordinates also clenched their weapons, standing back to back and preparing for the final battle.
The air became thicker and heavier, almost suffocating.
The beads of sweat dripping from his forehead reflected the stern and determined faces.
Just when the two sides were about to engage in hand-to-hand combat, Lei Xiao was stunned for a moment, then realized something and suddenly said: "Everyone, the situation is a bit strange. The enemies we are facing seem to be different!"
After hearing Lei Xiao's words, the four subordinates around them all froze, and they all obviously reacted.
As a magician, Chaoyan blinked his clear starry eyes and suddenly realized: "I know, this is a fearful illusion!"
"Everyone just needs to tell the enemy they see and let others hear it, and they can automatically crack it!"
Except for the last barely audible mosquito sound, everyone shouted loudly.
Lei Xiao was surprised to find that the movements of all the orc soldiers in front of him suddenly froze, and the shouts of killing stopped abruptly.
The ugly faces filled with murderous intent were all frozen in mid-air, and you could even see the spitting stars flying out when the orcs shouted from their mouths full of sallow teeth.
The entire scene instantly changed from extreme movement to extreme stillness, as if the pause button had been suddenly pressed.
However, what frightened Lei Xiao the most.
It was a flying arrow, only a few centimeters away from the tip of his nose.
The sharp and shiny metal arrow even reflected his stunned expression.
Looking at the arrow tip so close at hand, Lei Xiao's goosebumps instantly fell to the ground, and he shuddered unconsciously.
Not long after, in addition to the subordinates who were still tightly surrounding him, Lei Xiao noticed further.
Everything in front of him gradually began to blur.
Unknowingly, a film of looming shadows slowly emerged, interspersed among the orc army that had become translucent.
This magical scene is like several completely different worlds overlapping together.
The first thing that appeared was a dozen purple-winged black dragons the size of airliners hovering in mid-air.
These huge dragons covered the sky and were full of ferocity. The rough dragon faces, which were several times larger than a locomotive, were like demons. Lei Xiao felt a huge sense of oppression that he had never experienced before, and he was instantly sweating.
It rains.
With such a doomsday scene, it’s no wonder that a fifth-level super-powerful person like Huzhang would also show an expression of resignation.
Next, giant red king crabs appeared all over the mountains and plains. Each one was at least as big as a car. At first glance, it was jaw-dropping.
Although the crab legs that are comparable to telephone poles, the extremely sharp crab claws, and the armor-like crab shell are indeed very scary.
But for some reason, Lei Xiao still swallowed in disappointment when looking at the alluring color.
What finally appeared was densely packed slimes.
These are blue jelly-like creatures that are slightly larger than a fist.
In addition to being covered in aloe juice-like mucus, he actually looks quite cute. It can be said that his style is completely different from the previous one, and he doesn't look threatening at all.
Through Chao Yan's explanation, which was all red, Lei Xiao learned.
It turns out that what just happened before my eyes was just an illusion.
Just as Lei Xiao guessed, the opponents everyone saw were exactly the same.
The initiator of all this was the fearful illusion that Chaoyan shouted out before.
This illusion is an automatic protection mechanism within the barrier area. It will be automatically triggered after entering, and can materialize the most fearful thing in the intruder's heart.
The more fearful the intruder is, the stronger the opponent will be, until the intruder dies from fear and exhaustion.
"So that's it."
Lei Xiao, who knew that he was on the line between life and death, breathed a long sigh of relief and felt an unstoppable chill down his spine.
I didn't expect that there were such incredible things in this different world, and I almost stumbled here.
No wonder everyone's behavior was a bit inexplicable at the beginning.
It turns out that a group of people facing different opponents have been having a cross-server chat.
"Since I have only been in this world for a short time, the enemy I fear most at this stage is indeed this army of orcs."
"As a fifth-level strongman, Tiger Stick is afraid of the sixth-level magic dragon. As a third-level strongman, Nanxing Nanyue is afraid of the fourth-level king crab. These are all within the reasonable range."
"But Chaoyan, who is also a third-level expert, is most afraid of first-level water slimes that are harmless to humans and animals. What the hell is this? It makes people unable to even complain..."
Looking at Chao Yan, whose face was full of embarrassment due to shame, Lei Xiao smiled helplessly, not only without a trace of blame, but with a look of relief on his face.
It was precisely because of this that he was able to successfully find the flaw in the illusion before this deadly battle began.
In addition, although this guy only has 85 points of loyalty, he still decides to fight to the death for himself, which is indeed a bit surprising.
Lei Xiao thought this while noticing.
At this time, the various terrifying illusions in front of him had almost become completely transparent.
Without warning, with a flash of bright light, everything changed again.
Lei Xiao found himself and four subordinates in front of a burning village.
The burning breath rushed towards him, and the pungent burnt smell instantly filled his nostrils.
What was even more frightening were the fallen corpses of orc soldiers all around.
Corpses were strewn all around the group of people, and there were as many as a thousand of them scattered about.
I saw that most of the orc soldiers' battle helmets were thrown aside, and their rough and ugly faces were full of disbelief and fear. It was difficult to imagine what they saw before they died.
But what is certain is that they obviously died in the illusion of fear.
For an ordinary person like Lei Xiao, who had just traveled through time, the impact of such a scene littered with corpses was so powerful that it could be said to go straight to the sky, and even his body began to tremble unconsciously.
"Lord Qi, my subordinates have carefully detected it. This is the real inside of the barrier area!"
I saw Chao Yan holding a red magic book and her ponytail tied behind her head without any wind. She first touched her chest and reported the report.
After her embarrassing poor performance just now, she was afraid of being looked down upon by the lord, but now she is full of energy.
"That's right, Lord. My subordinates also sensed the aura of the third-level orc shaman in the village ahead."
The eyes of Huzhang, who was holding a sword with one hand, flashed and he nodded.
"It seems that we have indeed successfully reached the interior of the barrier area."
Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes, tried his best to look calm, and nodded: "The burning village in front must be the base camp of another force in this barrier."
"No matter what the true face of this force is, judging from the fact that its hometown was burned down by the orc army, the strength of the two should be between equals, or it may be weaker than the orcs."
"The most important thing is that, as I speculated at the beginning, both of them are now at the end of their crossbow."
Lei Xiao's eyes were piercing, and he waved his hand and said: "Next, let's draw a final break for this battle."
"As you command, Lord Lord!"
The four surrounding subordinates all spoke in unison, stroking their chests and saluting.
