Chapter 838 Sudden Test
Looking at Erza's frightened and nervous white face, Lei Xiao couldn't help but froze, and began to look at each other with Ariel beside him.
This sudden situation of being unable to return to reality was obviously beyond Lei Xiao's expectation.
After all, the group did not encounter any obstacles when they left here for the first time.
While surprised, Lei Xiao understood clearly.
In reality, he, Ariel and four other subordinates were not in a life support box like Vader, but just sitting on the sofa. If they were trapped here all the time, the consequences could be imagined.
The most important thing is that in two days' time, the murderous army of the two princes will approach the city.
At this critical juncture, not only did I not successfully find the [God Stone] that increased my chances of winning, but I was also inexplicably trapped in this illusion, which was simply suffocating.
This undoubtedly means that he is already racing against death.
Thinking of this, a drop of cold sweat slipped quietly from Lei Xiao's forehead.
"Since I traveled here, my pace has never stopped, and no one can surpass me, not even the God of Death."
Lei Xiao wiped off the cold sweat on his head, forced himself to calm down, and then raised his eyebrows at the petite dark elf illusionist and asked: "Erza, don't panic, what is going on?"
"Back to the lord, if this train realm can be compared to a closed room, then the reason why we are here is because my subordinates forcibly opened a back door of the illusion and pulled the lord in."< br>
Hearing Lei Xiao's calm voice, Erza, who was a little panicked, obviously calmed down a lot, and began to describe the current situation using words that Lei Xiao could understand.
"Similarly, if we need to return to reality, we also need to leave through the back door of this illusion."
When Erza said this, her eyebrows were already twisted into a knot: "And now, there is an unknown powerful mysterious force that forcibly sealed the back door of the illusion left by my subordinates, which forced us to stay in This illusion.”
"Is there any possibility of finding another way and opening another door?"
Lei Xiao pondered for a moment, then continued to ask with raised eyebrows.
"Back to my lord, under normal circumstances, my subordinates can do it."
Erza lowered her eyebrows and shook her head, and responded: "But the current situation is that while that powerful mysterious force sealed the entrance to the illusion surgery reserved by the subordinates, it also built an indestructible wall on the outside. The entire train realm is completely closed.”
After a pause, Erza added: "Lord, the only way for us to leave here now is to find the source of this mysterious power."
"I understand, the situation seems a bit complicated."
Lei Xiao pondered and nodded, then looked at the dwarf prince who was also confused, and asked: "Your Excellency, conductor, do you have any clues about this?"
"To be honest with you, I am also confused right now."
The puzzled look on Wade's resolute face became more and more obvious.
"I have carefully sensed it just now. There is no problem with the train realm itself. It is still very stable and there are no traces of tampering."
"But the situation is indeed just like what the dark elf lady said. There is a powerful unknown mysterious force that is actively intervening in this illusion, which makes it impossible for you to leave normally."
When he said this, the crow's feet at the corners of Vader's eyes deepened a bit, and he frowned and said: "But who is this unknown power? You know, this has never happened before."
"So, besides us and the elves, is there an unknown and powerful mysterious force in this illusion?"
Lei Xiao frowned even more and began to re-examine the current situation.
Since entering the "Wandering Gate", although they have passed through strange places such as the mirror space and the white corridor, the actions of my group have always been very cautious, and there should be no chance of being followed.
This undoubtedly means that this mysterious force is almost impossible to come from the outside world.
Apart from the dwarves, there are no other existences in the barrier. Otherwise, Vader and others who have lived here for so long would never be unaware of it.
Since Vader and the others inside the door knew nothing, there was no evidence or sign of those following them outside the door.
So, where did this mysterious power come from? And why did he deliberately trap his group in this illusion?
Confused, Lei Xiao looked at Jiang Li, Hong Ye, Erza and Ariel beside him, and found that his subordinates all had solemn and confused expressions, looking around cautiously.
As for the dwarf prince Vader, he was contemplating, trying to find some possible clues from his already vague memories.
"No, I must have overlooked something else."
Lei Xiao withdrew his gaze and went through the series of matters entering here again in his mind.
This time, Lei Xiao suddenly gained something new. His dark eyes lit up and he said, "I think I know what all this is about."
After hearing Lei Xiao's voice, the subordinates who were still confused, as well as the dwarf prince Vader, immediately cast their gazes over with curious expressions on their faces.
"Remember what old Roy and Sarah said?"
Lei Xiao nodded to his subordinates and said, "If you want to successfully obtain the [God's Stone], you must pass a certain test within the sect, just like what the ancestors of the Loren royal family experienced back then. ”
"Lord, are you saying that we are now in this test of a near-death experience?"
Ariel reacted immediately and blurted out.
"Yes, this is the only reasonable explanation."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly and began to encourage the morale of his subordinates: "Everyone, please work harder. If everything goes well, as long as we pass this test, not only can we leave here, but we can also obtain the [God's Stone] here. A small end to this wonderful journey.”
After receiving Lei Xiao's encouragement, the subordinates were all gearing up, and even Wade nodded along.
"But Lord, my subordinates still have something unknown."
While Erza felt excited, she frowned and said, "Why were the first batch of dwarves who came here not put to the test, but we were put into a test as soon as we arrived?"
Hearing the question from the petite dark elf, Lei Xiao, who had his arms crossed, just frowned and fell into thought.
Ariel jumped forward, blinked her starry eyes playfully and said, "I know! The thing is actually very simple, because only the two "Keys of Truth" required for the "Wandering Gate" can be opened. The final test! ”
"In this way, things can be explained..."
Hearing Ariel's clear voice, just when Lei Xiao said this, his words stopped abruptly.
Lei Xiao's dark eyes were full of warning. He took a step back and asked Ariel in a deep voice: "Who are you? Where did you take Ariel?"
Seeing Lei Xiao's abnormal behavior, other subordinates and Wade began to look at each other, obviously not reacting yet.
"Lord, what are you talking about? I am Ariel."
Ariel tilted her head and said with confusion on her face: "Lord, are you too nervous?"
"You are not Ariel. Ariel will not know the information just now."
Lei Xiao's eyes were still gloomy, and he said coldly: "Although Ariel still needs to be tempered, she has begun to have the intellectual stability of a leader, and she will never be so lively and playful."
"The most important thing is that Ariel, who received a traditional elite education since childhood, has always called herself "I", not "I". ”
Lei Xiao's voice became colder and colder, and he asked: "I ask again, who are you? What did you do to the real Ariel?"
"Hehe, you are worthy of being a human race that can collect two "Keys of Truth" and then open the "Door of Wandering". It is indeed extraordinary. ”
"Ariel" smiled sweetly, raised her eyebrows and said, "It seems that the relationship between you is closer than the little girl imagined."
"As for your little girlfriend, she is naturally very safe. Although the little woman can easily destroy her will, there is no need to do so. And the little woman's identity..."
"Ariel" deliberately prolonged the last note and smiled at Lei Xiao with great interest: "How about you guess again?"
Hearing the sound, Lei Xiao remained sullen and did not answer. Eight invincible guardian puppets appeared out of thin air, and under Lei Xiao's control, they quickly surrounded the opponent from all directions.
Judging from the sharp movements of those guardian puppets, Lei Xiao obviously had no intention of holding back and was preparing to defeat the enemy with one move.
There is only one reason why Lei Xiao does this, and that is to test the opponent's strength.
If you can subdue the opponent directly, that would be great. If you can't, you have to show that you are never easy to mess with.
"Be ruthless and decisive, never sloppy. The little lady is becoming more and more fond of you. You know, from the moment you entered the "Wandering Gate", the little lady has been secretly paying attention to you. ”
Facing the invincible guardian who was attacking from nowhere, the smile on "Ariel's" white face became even bigger. She had no intention of evading, but still stood there leisurely.
The next second, the sixteen iron arms of the eight guardians roared over, forming a dragnet, intending to capture "Ariel" on the spot and make her suffer.
However, what was unexpected was.
The figure of "Ariel" was as if it came from another dimension and could not be touched at all, causing the guardians to bump into each other heavily, just like the scene when Lei Xiao and others attacked the guardians before.
This wasn't over yet. Under Lei Xiao's signal, Jiang Lei and Hong Ye also showed off their magical powers and attacked each other fiercely, but still had no effect.
"Your Excellency, the situation has changed."
A solemn-looking Vader came to Lei Xiao's side, stood on tiptoe and said, "I just discovered that this mysterious guy actually changed the rules of the Train Realm in an instant, not only making himself invincible, but also By the way, the invincibility effect of the guardians is lifted!”
"Things are getting a little tricky."
Lei Xiao's brows were already twisted into knots, and he was looking straight ahead at "Ariel" who was pretending to be cute.
From this point, it is not difficult to see that the other party's illusion level is obviously much higher than Erza's.
"If this is the test of the [God's Stone], then what is the origin of this guy?"
"Old Roy and Sarah never mentioned that they would encounter such a troublesome existence."
While feeling confused, Lei Xiao began to think secretly in his heart.
After some testing just now, I already understood.
At least in this illusion, he can't defeat the opponent yet.
However, fortunately, the other party has no plans to be cruel, and Ariel will not be in danger for the time being.
After fully understanding the current situation, Lei Xiao frowned and asked: "So, you are the tester of the [God's Stone]?"
"Yes, in fact, you have passed the first test, even faster than the little girl imagined."
"Ariel" shrugged, curled her lips and said regretfully: "Originally, I thought I could tease you as your little girlfriend."
After finishing speaking, "Ariel" waved her hand, and the real Ariel appeared in the corner, falling asleep.
"Before the next test begins, please tell me your identity."
Seeing this, Lei Xiao's expression softened a little, and he nodded slightly while signaling Hongye to help Ariel back.
"Your Excellency already has a [God's Stone], but you still don't know the identity of the little girl? It seems that the guy in the [God's Stone] is not good at words."
"Ariel" raised her eyebrows, smiled and said, "The little girl is the [Stone of God] in the Wandering Gate!" ”
"What?"
After hearing this unexpected answer, Lei Xiao and his subordinates couldn't help but look at each other in surprise.
It turns out that the [God's Stone] is not just an ordinary piece of divine creation, but is actually a divinely created life form just like Lian!
"You don't have to be surprised. To be precise, the little girl is the stone elf in the [God's Stone]. She is indeed a special kind of divine creation."
"Ariel" put her hands behind her back and began to pace slowly in front of Lei Xiao playfully.
"If you hadn't opened the "Wandering Gate" to wake up the little girl, I'm afraid the little girl would still be sleeping until now. ”
At this point, "Ariel" glanced at the dwarf prince again and curled her lips.
"The only thing that surprises the little girl is that there are actually a group of smart guys who have forced their way in here a long time ago. They are just asking for trouble. Is the [Stone of God] something that can be obtained by trickery?"
When "Ariel" said this, Wade's pointed ears immediately drooped, and he couldn't help but sigh.
"Okay, let's get back to the topic."
Lei Xiao slowly took a deep breath and frowned at "Ariel": "What is the next test?" (End of Chapter)
