Chapter 1384 A long-lost scene
Noticing the figure in front of him, Lei Xiao looked up and met Xiao Jing's starry eyes full of expectation.
"Your Excellency seems to have forgotten one thing."
Xiao Jing blinked her long eyelashes, smiled at Lei Xiao and said, "My true form is the [God's Stone]. Only after I sign the exclusive master-servant contract of the [God's Stone] can I exert my true strength and better assist you!"
"I almost forgot about it."
Lei Xiao touched Xiaojing's head habitually and smiled slightly.
As a physical stone elf, Xiao Jing was already extremely powerful before she recognized her master. If she was also equipped with the secret method of formation, she would indeed be even more powerful.
So, there is only one question left.
[God's Stone] is of great importance. Only by letting oneself or direct subordinates serve as the master can it be safe. Only in this way can oneself indirectly become the master of all [God's Stone].
I have already signed a master-servant contract with Xiaojie, and the main subordinates Nanxing and Nanyue, who have similar specialties to Xiaojing, have also signed a contract. So, which main subordinate should I choose to become Xiaojing's master?
Just as Lei Xiao frowned in thought, Xiao Jing obviously saw through Lei Xiao's thoughts and quickly said, "Sir, you don't want someone else to be my master, do you? But I only want to be your stone elf!"
"Xiao Jing, I am already the holder of the [God's Stone]."
Lei Xiao smiled helplessly, shook his head and said, "You should also know that the master-servant contract of [God's Stone] is extremely special. It is different from other types of master-servant contracts. It cannot be overlapped or covered. This is a well-known fact."
"what?"
Hearing the voice, not only Xiaojing, but even Xiaojie who was standing beside them had puzzled expressions on their faces.
Xiao Jie stepped forward and said to Lei Xiao, "Lord, what you said is correct, but as long as the additional conditions allow, both the [God's Stone] and the master will no longer be bound by this rule."
"Oh? There are additional conditions?"
After hearing Xiao Jie's words, Lei Xiao couldn't help but be stunned.
"That's right, Lord. When I signed the master-servant contract of the God's Stone with my subordinate, God should have told you about it."
Xiaojie nodded seriously and responded.
“It seems that there is such a rule.”
A trace of confusion flashed across Lei Xiao's eyes, and he began to recall the details of the divine revelation at that time.
First of all, it goes without saying that the [God's Stone], the [Key of Truth], and the [Gate of Truth] are explained.
Secondly, there is a series of areas and names that I am not familiar with or even completely unfamiliar with.
This is where some of the "Keys to Truth" are buried, and the holders of other parts of the "God's Stones" can only hear exclusive divine revelations after collecting a certain number of "God's Stones".
Finally, some details about Xiao Jie were added. This was also a divine revelation that ordinary [God's Stone] holders could not hear. After all, Xiao Jie's class was level six, which was higher than the ordinary level five [God's Stone].
Among these, two points are the most important.
The first is that the sixth-level [God's Stone] can constitute two secret techniques.
Secondly, the holder of the [God's Stone] who meets two additional conditions can hold multiple [God's Stones].
One of the conditions is that the class of the [God's Stone] itself must be at level six.
The second condition is that the holder of the [God's Stone] must be the chosen son of God who has been recognized by the gods and can use the power of God's favor!
"So that's how it is. At the time, I was in a life-and-death battle with the Evil God's Chosen Son, and my mind was extremely confused. Even the two secret techniques were told to me by Xiao Jie. Now that I recall this, everything is clear to me."
Lei Xiao took a deep breath and suddenly his mind became clear.
In this way, Xiao Jing, who is a sixth-level [God's Stone], and who is also the current God's chosen son who can use the power of God's favor, has indeed met the conditions to possess multiple [God's Stones].
"I see. If that's the case, then let's sign the master-servant contract right away."
Lei Xiao nodded at Xiao Jing and smiled.
"Great! I thought Your Excellency was unwilling to be my master!"
Xiaojing jumped up excitedly, her face full of excitement.
Then, without any hesitation, her whole body was suddenly filled with golden light, and she turned into a fist-sized crystal clear gem, floating in front of Lei Xiao.
Compared with the colorless and transparent body of Xiaojie [God's Stone], the interior of Xiaojing [God's Stone] is rippling with a deep blue, dotted with stars, just like the vast starry sky at night.
"Then let me feel God's revelation again."
Lei Xiao stretched out his hand and tightly grasped the flawless gem in front of him.
The moment Lei Xiao touched the surface of the gem, an even more dazzling golden light shone out, completely enveloping both of them.
The next second, the scene in front of Lei Xiao suddenly changed, and he appeared in a dimly lit, closed room.
"This time it's not a vast magical world with tall buildings and jade palaces."
A hint of surprise flashed across Lei Xiao's eyes and he looked around.
This room, which is only about 20 square meters in size, is empty and has no doors or windows.
There was just an antique stone chair placed in the middle of the room, which looked quite abrupt.
What was even more striking was that the walls and ceiling around the room were covered with deep and mysterious magical patterns.
All kinds of lines and runes crisscrossed each other, just like a huge precision machine, emitting a faint light blue light, and looked quite similar to the hall of the Guardian's defense agency.
But what is obvious is that both the complexity and density of the magic patterns here are more than one level higher than the guardian's defense mechanism. Even at first glance, there is a unique beauty that is refreshing and pleasant. This is a visual experience that Lei Xiao has never had before.
“Is it more advanced than the miraculous building that can be regarded as the crystallization of supreme wisdom? It’s really unbelievable.”
While being amazed, Lei Xiao began to pace slowly in the room tentatively.
Accompanied by the sound of light footsteps, Lei Xiao walked around the room and couldn't help but frowned slightly.
These profound magic patterns were far beyond his comprehension. Unless hundreds of the most knowledgeable magic masters from all races were gathered together to conduct in-depth research for hundreds or thousands of years, perhaps they would be able to get a glimpse of the tip of the iceberg. It was definitely not something that could be accomplished overnight.
So the question is, what is the purpose of the gods showing him this small room of unknown purpose?
After all, the magical world that he had seen before could still make him clearly feel the sacredness and sublimity, feel the mission he was shouldering, and feel that the answer must be ahead, silently waiting for his arrival.
“Although the magic patterns here are refreshing, that’s all.”
Lei Xiao curled his lips slightly, and finally set his gaze on the quaint stone chair in the center of the room, and nodded thoughtfully.
"Come to think of it, this chair is somewhat similar to the operating chairs in the command halls of Ice Stone City and Crystal Blue City. Do you want me to sit on it?"
Thinking of this in his mind, Lei Xiao immediately walked towards the stone chair.
When he got closer, Lei Xiao sat on it without hesitation.
This is the process of signing a contract with Xiaojing, so there is no need to worry about whether it will be a trap or something like that.
The moment his body touched the stone chair, Lei Xiao immediately opened his eyes wide with a look of surprise on his face.
After sitting firmly on the stone chair, the entire stone chair began to slowly tilt backwards and become soft, eventually forming an extremely comfortable viewing angle.
At the same time, the walls and ceiling of the room were rapidly blurring and becoming more transparent. In the blink of an eye, they completely disappeared.
Without the obstruction of walls and ceiling, what appeared before Lei Xiao was a vast and boundless scene of the universe.
"Wow, the universe is just outside the room. It's like being in a spaceship."
"No, perhaps this room itself is a different kind of magical spaceship, or a magical facility similar to a space station."
Looking at the shocking sight before him, Lei Xiao couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
In a trance, I felt as if I was sitting among the stars in the universe. Such a dazzling and stunningly deep picture was even more visually impactful than that magical world.
While being amazed, Lei Xiao calmed his mind and began to observe this area of the universe carefully.
Against the black background of shining stars, the first things that catch your eye are two extremely dazzling orange-red stars, one large and one small, emitting lasting brilliance.
These two most conspicuous stars are located in the central area of the universe. Around the two stars, there are more than ten planets of various sizes, which are slowly rotating around the former.
These planets have different colors, including khaki, dark blue, gray, etc. Some are surrounded by planetary rings, and their rotation speeds and rotations are also different, which is dazzling to look at.
"Double star system. I seem to have seen this picture somewhere before."
Lei Xiao pondered for a moment, then quickly reacted.
At that time, in the City of Light, the first divinely favored place where Lian met, I also saw this scene, but compared with the scene at that time, this time it was obviously more shocking and immersive.
"Is this the scene of the galaxy where this other world is located?"
Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully, and his eyes began to wander among the planets.
It didn't take long to find a deep blue planet without any rings but surrounded by an atmosphere.
Around this deep blue planet, there are two gray-white satellites of similar size, slowly rotating around it. This is the world where Lei Xiao is currently located.
"It's exactly the same as what I saw in the City of Light."
Lei Xiao opened his eyes wide and looked at the planet carefully.
Lei Xiao still clearly remembered that when he saw it in the City of Light before, the entire planet was in an inexplicable haze. It was impossible to see any area or the distribution of plates clearly.
At that time, after careful observation, Lei Xiao further noticed that it was not the result of blocking by the atmosphere, but that the entire planet was in a state of illusion.
However, when Lei Xiao looked carefully again this time, he saw exactly the same picture. The entire planet was like a reflection in the water. It was not real at all and was all blurry.
"What on earth is going on? When I was in the City of Light, I thought this was probably just a blurry model, or because it was so long ago, it didn't look real. I didn't expect it to be so blurry here too."
Lei Xiao frowned slightly, and his eyes began to wander back and forth among the other planets around him.
All the planets, including the two suns and two moons, could be seen clearly, but only the world he lived in had this astonishing sight.
"It seems that this is obviously not a simple coincidence. The world I live in is indeed different."
Lei Xiao's brows furrowed even more, and he began to think secretly in his heart.
"But why does this blurry situation appear? Is it a huge absolute defense barrier? Is there a god silently protecting this planet?"
"Or is there some unknown disorder on this planet? Is it related to the blank era?"
"Or maybe the above speculations are all inaccurate or even completely contrary to the truth."
Lei Xiao, who was sitting on a stone chair, thought so while leaning forward without blinking, trying to get some clues, but still got nothing.
Come to think of it, even if I were really in this magical space station, it would be impossible for me to find the source of the problem just by sight.
"Anyway, through what I saw this time, I can confirm that this alien world is indeed extremely unusual."
"I think I understand the purpose of showing me this picture. If I know the truth of the world, all these problems will naturally be solved. It seems that this picture is also motivating me to keep moving forward."
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this, a golden light suddenly flashed before his eyes.
When he came to his senses, Lei Xiao found himself standing in front of Xiao Jing, surrounded by endless golden light shining.
Xiao Jing's fair and delicate face was full of solemnity, and her starry eyes looked over firmly. Although her dark elf appearance was completely different from Xiao Jie's, the solemnity was exactly the same.
Lei Xiao looked directly into the other person's starry eyes. He could clearly feel that he had created a magical resonance with the other person. He could also feel that although the other person did not speak, he was chanting a vow in another form.
"...The earth is collapsing, the people are weeping, the cracks are hard to mend, everything in the past is gone, I pray for the earth to revive, the broken mirror cannot be mended, courage will never fade, all laws will prevail, all things will revive... Let me sign a sacred contract with you, I will dedicate my power to you, and help you pursue the truth, the truth is eternal!"
When Xiao Jing finished reciting her firm and powerful vow, a new divine revelation followed like a shadow, flooding into Lei Xiao's mind like a raging wave. (End of this chapter)
