Chapter 577: Outside the city wall is a devastated battlefield
Next, after some increasingly skillful operations, Lei Xiao easily gained control of the other nineteen alchemy puppets.
"Two teams of third-level peak divine arm archers? In terms of combat power alone, these are undoubtedly equal to two teams of ordinary first-level archers, or two long-range fourth-level senior experts!"
"The most important thing is that it can be carried with me and deployed at any time. In this way, not only will the tactical application on the future battlefield be more flexible, but my own safety will also be further consolidated!"
Nodding happily, Lei Xiao waved his hand, and the two rows of alchemy puppets standing neatly in front of him were all included in the space bracelet.
"Currently, I have a total of 24 Earth Guardians, 2 Sky Guardians, 18 Ice Knights, plus the newly acquired 20 Divine Arm Archers?"
"These 64 puppets, whose strength is above the level of third-level senior experts, if taken into consideration, are at least equivalent to the combat power of more than half of an ordinary organized legion. Being able to carry the combat power of more than half of a legion with them is not too much.
Perfect!"
"I have to say that I am already looking forward to the large-scale battle that will begin soon."
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this with excitement.
On the other side, Lian took a step forward and said with the same excitement: "I know that the Lord will successfully conquer these alchemy puppets!"
I saw Lian pondering for a moment, and then added: "Lord, the strength of these alchemy puppets was originally at the fourth level. Due to neglect of maintenance, it has suddenly dropped to the third level. If we can find the corresponding
With the maintenance method, you can still return to the fourth level!"
"Very good, let's go back and let our own alchemist check it first."
Nodding slightly, Lei Xiao smiled faintly at the goddess in front of him and said: "Okay, Lian, pack up the important things at home. We are ready to leave here. From now on, the territory will be your home."
"As you command! Lord!"
Hearing the sound, Lian's fair face couldn't help but show a look of excitement, and he trotted out of the room.
Next, the group rested on the soft sofa in the living room for a short time.
With a breeze passing by, Lian reappeared in front of Lei Xiao.
"Lord, all your subordinates have been sorted out!"
I saw that Lian was still dressed in a pure white cloth robe, but the outline of his figure was obviously much slimmer. It seemed that he had taken off his armor and put on casual clothes that were more convenient for movement.
Moreover, there was no baggage on her body, and she looked much lighter overall than before.
"I originally wanted to give Lian a storage ring just now, but this girl ran too fast. Where were all the things on her body and her gifts?"
Looking at Lian's appearance of traveling lightly, Lei Xiao couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart.
Lei Xiao had already noticed it through previous observations.
Lian didn't wear any jewelry on her body, and it didn't look like she had any storage space.
Immediately afterwards, Lei Xiao expressed his doubts.
"My Lord, I don't know. As a battle doll created by God, my subordinate has 100 cubic meters of storage space, which is more than enough to store gifts and equipment."
After hearing Lei Xiao's question, Lian bowed slightly and explained with a smile.
"So it is like this. It is indeed a divine creation."
Raising his eyebrows in surprise, Lei Xiao stood up from the soft and comfortable sofa, and then said to the subordinates: "Okay, let's leave here first."
After leaving Lian's residence, Lei Xiao did not go directly back to the medical center where Hod's family of three was staying. Instead, he ordered Lian to guide the group to check out the battlefield.
In this way, we walked forward on the empty street in the direction of the two suns, one big and one small.
Looking past the pure white building roofs at the end, an extremely tall and majestic pure white city wall in the distance came into Lei Xiao's eyes.
"Good guy, when you look at it from the central square of the city, it doesn't feel so tall. Compared with it, the walls of the mountain fortress pale into insignificance."
Looking at the giant city wall that was roughly estimated to be at least thirty meters high, Lei Xiao couldn't help but admire it secretly.
The subordinates around him also had expressions of surprise.
"Lord, the passage to climb the city wall is right next to the city gate. It's not far from here."
Immediately afterwards, Lian's crisp voice reached Lei Xiao's ears.
"Let's go up and have a look."
Nodding slightly, Lei Xiao looked serious and quickened his pace.
After walking forward for a while, after turning the last corner, a huge city gate appeared in everyone's sight.
This gate, also made of pure white stone, is at least fifteen meters high and nearly ten meters wide. It looks extremely spectacular.
"It seems that the function of this door is not just to accommodate ordinary races passing by, right?"
Seeing this, Lei Xiao looked thoughtful.
"What the lord said is absolutely true, because the main space passage leading to this land of divine scrolls is outside the city, and the reason why the city gate is built so huge is to take care of the pilgrims of the Titan tribe."
I saw Lian walking at the front, walking towards the horse path next to the giant city gate, while explaining: "As for the accommodation and prayer halls and other facilities for the Titan pilgrims, they are all dedicated and located underground in the city.
Location."
"I see."
Looking at the giant city gate, Lei Xiao's mind already had a spectacular picture of the ten-meter-tall Titans passing through the city gate together with other races.
Next, follow the stairs in the middle of the horse path on the side of the city wall and climb all the way up.
In a moment, Lei Xiao and his group, who were walking vigorously, were already standing on the towering city wall.
At the same time, a heroic feeling of being the best came to Lei Xiao's mind.
From this location, looking into the city, one can clearly see the crisscrossing streets and layout of the entire city.
Although this place is already an empty city, it can still remind people of the prosperous scene back then. The pure white and delicate tones of the entire city, as well as each temple-shaped building that is comparable to a work of art, are even more impressive.
And looking out of the city along the notch on the battlement, wherever you look, you see a completely different scene.
At a glance, outside the city, there was a dark, scorched earth with hundreds of large and small potholes all over it.
According to Lei Xiao's estimation, the smallest one is at least several hundred square meters and has a depth of dozens of meters, while the largest one is as if a bottomless abyss has been blasted out of the flat ground.
.
The most important thing is that the battlefield is so large that even from such a height, you can't even see the end.
"Good guy, this is just like being hit by a meteorite rain, no, it's just like a nuclear bomb blasting site."
Seeing this extremely desolate scene, Lei Xiao couldn't help but sigh to himself.
There is no doubt that compared with the ruins of the Light Elves and the Dwarf Hearth Castle, the battlefield in the Land of Divine Scrolls before us is obviously much larger in terms of scale and brutality.
Shocking.
At the same time, all the subordinates beside Lei Xiao also looked shocked and exclaimed in surprise.
Among them, especially Bert and Ju Bai, these two had fought for Leng Yan in all directions and had seen countless generals of the kingdom who died and died. They were stunned. Even they had only seen such a purgatory scene in their lives.
"Lord, this is where my subordinate woke up."
Lian stretched out his slender finger and pointed at the edge of a giant pothole not far from the city wall, still looking thoughtful.
"Lian, I have to say, it's really a miracle that you survived."
Taking a deep breath of the unusually sharp air, Lei Xiao couldn't help but frown.
Such a scene is really shocking, and it really makes people wonder about the origin of the terrible opponent that Lian faced back then.
"Lian, remember you said at the beginning that when you woke up, you would be the only one left in this huge battlefield, right?"
Slowly moving his gaze away from the barren battlefield under the city wall, Lei Xiao refocused his eyes on the goddess attendant beside him.
"Back to Lord, that's exactly what it is."
Nodding respectfully to Lei Xiao, Lian Qiangqiang cheered up.
Then responded: "When I woke up at that time, I was really confused and shocked for a long time. It was not until I spent nearly a month carefully exploring every corner of the battlefield that I confirmed this."
After a pause, Lian looked solemn and continued: "In this vast battlefield, there is indeed only one subordinate left. Not only can there be no body or limbs, there is not even a drop of blood or a fragment of equipment.
Discover."
"There are such weird things."
Hearing this, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.
"Lord, if you think about it carefully, why do my subordinates feel that this strange situation seems to be exactly the same as those "lost ruins" that were also destroyed in the blank era?"
On the other side, Hong Ye's eyebrows furrowed and she spoke in a deep voice.
"I noticed that too."
Caressing the pure white battlements in front of him, Lei Xiao felt the smoothness and vicissitudes of time on them, while he nodded and said: "Remove the seeming, this battlefield is indeed a special "lost ruins", or in other words
The "Lost Ruins Effect" is happening here."
"The "Lost Ruins Effect"?"
Hearing the sound, Lian blinked his starry eyes and asked with confusion: "Lord, what is the "Lost Ruins Effect"?"
"The so-called "lost ruins effect" is that among all the ancient ruins from the blank era three thousand years ago, no matter what race they are, there is not a single ancient corpse that was left out at that time."
Nodding towards Lian, Lei Xiao began to explain: "This, like the 'displaced object' or the 'dislocated object effect', is one of the mysterious effects caused by the blank era. In other words, the
It would be more appropriate to call it an unsolved mystery.
The word "lost" naturally refers to these ancient corpses that disappeared en masse for unknown reasons."
"My subordinates seem to understand somewhat."
Dai Mei frowned slightly and pondered for a while, and then opened her lips slightly and said: "In other words, this kind of situation where all the dead people on both sides of the enemy and ours disappeared inexplicably on the battlefield three thousand years ago, not only happened here, but
The same thing happened all over the world?!"
"Exactly."
Nodding slightly, Lei Xiao patted the floating dust from the battlements on his hands and responded.
"I understand, Lord Lord, then what are the "Blank Era" and the "Displaced Object Effect"?"
On the other side, Lian smiled sheepishly and asked again: "Can I talk to my subordinates?"
"No problem, I just ignored it a little. For you who have been living here and have no contact with the outside world, you really don't know these things."
Smiling slightly, Lei Xiao described the "blank era", "displaced objects", and the disappearance of the chosen son to Lian in detail.
"So it turns out that three thousand years ago, there were also wars in various parts of the world? There were also terrible disasters..."
After listening to Lei Xiao's description, Lian was stunned for a while, and then murmured to himself: "And it's not just the subordinate himself who has forgotten everything about the war.
Even the various races in the outside world have no records of that period of time three thousand years ago. Is this why it is called the mysterious "Blank Age"? It is indeed very appropriate."
"What my subordinates didn't expect is that among the countless glorious civilizations that disappeared in the blank era, there was actually the Chosen Son of God..."
As her long eyelashes flickered, Lian sighed softly and said, "You know, he is the proud son of all races who has been favored by a certain god. His transcendent status is comparable to that of the royal family."
"So, we have come to the conclusion that the gods no longer care about this world."
With a slight snap of his fingers, Lei Xiao further deduced the hypothesis that the gods were divided into two factions after arriving here, and described it to Lian.
"What the lord said is absolutely true. I have thought about this issue countless times. No matter how I think about it, the only ones who can easily defeat us are the warriors of other gods."
Nodding with dark eyes, Lian shook his head helplessly and said: "Unfortunately, my subordinates have no memory of everything about the opponent. The only thing that still remains in the memory is the blazing flames in the sky, and the divine attendant beside me.
The screams of the robes and the severed limbs flying wantonly..."
After a pause, Lian added: "What I can't figure out is that in my memory, the relationship between the gods and all races has always been very harmonious, so how could such a crisis that swept the entire world suddenly happen?
A brutal war?”
"There must be a hidden secret in this that we don't know yet."
With a dull smile, Lei Xiao said with piercing eyes: "As we continue to move forward, the many incredible and unsolved mysteries hidden in this world will surely be revealed through the clouds and the blue sky."
Lei Xiao kept smiling and continued to the goddess attendant in front of him: "I believe that day is getting closer to us."
