Chapter 1473 Twists and turns
"Oh? Please go ahead and tell me, sir!"
Lei Xiao's dark eyes lit up and he spoke quickly.
“This method is useful, but it requires a high-purity barrier crystal, which is extremely expensive!”
The pink hooded man rubbed his fingers very skillfully towards Lei Xiao, and then made a gesture of tossing a gold coin, and said: "Human kid, do you understand what I mean? Although I am willing to help, it does not mean that I have to take the consumed items myself!"
"Don't worry, you can use whatever means you want, and I will bear all the expenses."
Lei Xiao immediately understood what the other party meant and smiled helplessly.
I didn't expect that this guy was so familiar with the human race's action of throwing gold coins. It seemed that he had been traveling in this land for a long time. After all, foreign forces used magic crystals or simply traded with equipment. These precious things would not be thrown around casually.
"From your looks, you must be a wealthy person. As promised, don't forget my precious carpet!"
The pink hooded man nodded with satisfaction, and then with a wave of his hand, a barrier crystal as big as the cabin appeared. The square, perfectly polished crystal looked crystal clear, with deep and complex magic patterns engraved on the surface. The size of the crystal was larger than Lei Xiao had ever seen before.
"Hey, you've learned a lot, right? This is what I exchanged for five sixth-level equipment from a birdman. It took me more than a month to seal the magic inside!"
Noticing Lei Xiao's surprised look, the man in the pink hood put his hands on his hips, looking extremely proud.
After that, the pink hooded man looked Lei Xiao up and down again and asked, "Human boy, are you sure you can take out five pieces of sixth-level equipment?"
"Your Excellency, the Lord is the Emperor of the Human Race, so it is easy for him to take it out!"
Xiao Jing also put her hands on her hips and said proudly, "Not only that, even many third-rate forces in the outer domain respect you, Lord!"
"Oh? Is that amazing?"
The pink hooded man spoke calmly and looked at Lei Xiao again.
"I can't say I'm amazing, but I can still keep my word."
Lei Xiao nodded to the pink hooded man and said with a smile: "Sir, time is running out, so please tell me your plan."
"Then I will trust you once again. As for the plan, it is actually very simple. It is to activate the space disruption method that I have sealed in the crystal of the barrier and destroy all the space traps here!"
The pink hooded man gently patted the barrier crystal and introduced: "As long as all the space traps here are ineffective, you just need to regroup."
"So, you are sure you can break all the space traps here in one fell swoop?"
Lei Xiao nodded with sudden enlightenment and asked again.
This move is of great importance. Although Lei Xiao is extremely anxious, he still has to be sure of the other party's methods.
"Yes, these space traps are indeed very difficult for ordinary space masters, and with the blessing of the power of the evil devil, it further increases the difficulty of cracking them."
The pink hooded man stood with his hands behind his back, nodded and said, "But my space magic comes from the ancient forest..."
As if he realized that his identity would be exposed, the pink hooded man changed the subject and said, "Anyway, it is very powerful. As long as the disruption is combined with the disruption, any space trap will be destroyed. Of course, the cooperation of your divine power is also required."
"That's fine. The city has a space-folding area, which is extremely vast. Can your spell cover such a vast area in one fell swoop?"
Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully and asked the last question in his mind.
"Indeed, there is still a shortfall, so I asked you to be responsible for the consumption of the barrier crystals."
The pink hooded man raised his chin from under the hood and responded, "Under normal circumstances, activating the magic array in the barrier crystal seal will not cause it to be damaged. In order to increase the coverage area, the power of the magic array must be increased until it exceeds the limit that the barrier crystal can withstand. At that time, the crystal will naturally be damaged because it cannot support the magic array."
"I understand completely. Let's get started now."
Lei Xiao first told the news to other subordinates in the city through telepathy, and then nodded to the man in the pink hood.
The subordinates following Lei Xiao all master magic communications and various communication scrolls, and are scattered throughout the city. Many of them are also with other strong men on our side, capable of passing on the news to others.
Because of the disturbance of space, the magic communication in the city was greatly interfered, but it was not impossible to communicate. After all, those present were all powerful people above level five.
"I can't wait any longer. Let us show this disgusting dead place some color!"
The pink hooded man first quickly built an energy-supplying magic circle in front of Lei Xiao, then lightly touched the barrier crystal with his staff, and a giant gray magic circle at least half the size of a castle instantly condensed in mid-air.
With the infusion of Lei Xiao's divine power, the surface of the giant gray magic circle not only rippled with golden light, but also began to expand rapidly around it, like a huge clock face.
Not only that, thousands of gray magic circles of various sizes and shapes also took shape around the giant magic circle and began to slowly rotate.
For a moment, these large and small gray magic arrays covered the sky and the sun, which was extremely shocking.
Looking at this amazing scene in the air, Lei Xiao continued to inject divine power and nodded slightly.
Such a huge array would undoubtedly take a long time to complete without the help of barrier crystals.
"Human boy, supply everything you can, the fun is about to begin!"
The pink hooded man flashed and was already standing on the crystal of the barrier, and the staff in his hand drew a series of complex and varied magic patterns.
As the pink hooded man waved his staff, the giant gray magic circle suddenly glowed with golden light, and a rich energy wave of gold and gray surged out and spread in all directions.
Wherever the energy waves visible to the naked eye went, those originally undetectable space traps all took shape in an instant, and then fell apart in an instant, completely dissipating into the air.
Not only that, affected by the disturbance of space, the scene around Lei Xiao also changed. Nanxing and Nanyue were randomly teleported to another place again, and Loris, Xina and others who looked surprised appeared next to Lei Xiao.
Since it only took a blink of an eye from the time the magic circle was activated to now, when the cracking sound of the barrier crystal was heard, the pink hooded man had already jumped down from it and stood in front of Lei Xiao again.
"Alright, human boy, the opponent's space traps have all been broken. Judging from the energy fluctuations fed back, they have indeed covered every corner of the city."
The pink hooded man patted the dust off his hands and said to Lei Xiao calmly, "Don't forget your promise. I will ask you to reimburse me when the time comes."
As soon as the pink hooded man finished speaking, the crystal shattered and scattered all over the ground.
"No problem, thank you for your hard work, sir."
Lei Xiao smiled faintly, then looked at Loris and Xina one after another, and said, "My Lords, this is what happened. Send a signal and tell the soldiers to regroup."
"Understood!"
After being stunned for a moment, the two nodded repeatedly and quickly sent out magic flares to assemble.
"Your Excellency the Human Race, who is this?"
After everything was deployed, Loris's lion eyes looked at the pink hooded man, and for the first time, a hint of caution appeared on his rough face.
He was able to tell from his breath that the pink hooded man in front of him, who looked short, was actually extremely powerful.
And Xina looked the same, even the indifference and arrogance that had always been on her fair face were restrained a little.
"Two leaders, this is me..."
Lei Xiao looked at the two people's puzzled expressions and was about to explain the whole story, but he saw the man in the pink hood coughed lightly and interrupted his words.
Lei Xiao heard the voice and reacted immediately.
After all, this guy was trapped in the cracks of space for decades, which was obviously not something worth bragging about. It seemed that he reminded himself of this just to save his face.
"I am the helper invited by this human boy, that's all."
The pink hooded man walked forward slowly with his hands behind his back and said to Loris and Sina: "Little lion, little python, do you have any other questions?"
"No, we just want to thank you for helping us out. We have no intention of delving into your identity."
Sina quickly waved her hand with a look of respect on her face, and Loris did the same, nodding continuously.
Although the opponent's tone was extremely contemptuous, their strength was amazing after all. They could even kill them easily in seconds, not to mention helping us out.
Although the two leaders were noble, they dared not neglect such a mysterious and powerful man in the slightest.
While their hearts were full of respect, Xina and Loris's gazes involuntarily moved to Lei Xiao, and the same color appeared in their eyes.
From the moment they met in the Land of God's Favor, this young human emperor had shocked and surprised them time and again. Now with such a strong man as his helper, perhaps this was truly unfathomable.
Noticing the gazes from the two leaders, Lei Xiao simply smiled in response. This pink hooded man deepened his sense of mystery from the side, which could be considered an unexpected gain.
While several people were talking, gusts of strong wind swept by, and our strong men who were scattered around quickly gathered together. The crowd soon became large again, including the strong men of the Broken Valley Alliance.
Seeing these powerful warriors of the Broken Valley Alliance with only their skeletons left, the man in the pink hood was speechless for a moment. Although he had guessed something when observing the outside world in the cracks in space, such a scene still made him sigh and he didn't know what to say.
"Your Majesty, the soldiers have all assembled!"
Soon, commanders such as Xina and Loris came over one after another and nodded to Lei Xiao.
"We'll set off immediately."
Lei Xiao nodded, and then led the team to continue rushing towards the direction of the rising black smoke column.
However, not long after the group walked away, a strong wind suddenly began to howl around them, and a black fog visible to the naked eye began to quietly spread in this dead land.
This sudden change immediately attracted everyone's attention. After all, there was no black fog here before this.
"Oh no! This is a forbidden spell cast by those liches!"
The pink hooded man was the first to react, and a low voice that did not match his figure rang out: "This move is extremely vicious. If I am not mistaken, once the spell is completed, everyone present will be corroded by this forbidden black mist!"
"Your Excellency is right. The black fog is filled with hostility and murderous intent. Such vicious necromancy is simply unprecedented."
Fleming's solemn voice also sounded, echoing: "Don't even mention me waiting, even an elite army of a million will be destroyed in an instant."
"what?!"
After hearing what the pink hooded man and Fleming said, everyone on our side was shocked and looked at each other in bewilderment.
You know, I just walked out of the shadow of the space trap, but I didn’t expect to encounter another fatal crisis.
"No wonder even after we broke the opponent's space trap, the opponent still didn't react. It turns out that he had already prepared a backup plan!"
Loris clenched his fists until they crackled, but finally he had no choice but to loosen them, and subconsciously looked at Lei Xiao again. The others looked the same, and cast inquiring glances at him.
"Sir, old man, is there any way to break this spell?"
Lei Xiao asked the pink hooded man and Fleming without hesitation.
"This black fog is pouring in from outside the city. If I am not mistaken, the core of this vicious magic circle must be set outside the city."
The pink hooded man responded with his voice becoming more serious.
After the pink hooded man finished speaking, Fleming quickly nodded, obviously agreeing with the former's opinion.
"But the whole city is surrounded by a confinement barrier. We can't get out at all!"
Loris' lion eyes widened and he blurted out.
Hearing this, the others nodded solemnly, their faces filled with anxiety.
Everyone had witnessed the strength of the absolute confinement barrier before. It was almost impossible to break it. Besides, we didn't have that much time.
Even as everyone was talking, the surrounding black fog had become thicker, causing black smoke to come out of the energy barriers of many of our strong men. This was clearly a sign that they were being corroded by magic.
For a moment, the high-spirited atmosphere of the entire team was once again shrouded in the shadow of death. Everyone knew that we had entered the final countdown to destruction.
What is even more despairing is that, judging from the current situation, there is no way to stop this. (End of this chapter)
