Chapter 1173: Stepping Deep Underground

"I didn't expect that mysterious existence to have such ulterior motives!"

Catherine's eyes became more and more red, and she clenched her fists tightly.

You know, among the elite troops that disappeared, most of the blood clan's assets were included. Not only the Prince of the Spirit Staff, Vilentin, but also several other princes and dukes of the blood clan disappeared.

"These damn guys! This lady will never let them go!"

Louise also showed her little tiger teeth again, and a strong black and red aura filled her body.

"Calm down. We haven't explored this underground city completely yet, and we haven't found any way out. I'm afraid trapping us here is also part of the other party's plan."

Lei Xiao took a deep breath and nodded to everyone, saying, "In this way, the other party will have no obstacles to implement the plan until everything is completed."

"Your Highness is right. We are the last hope. We must not let the other party succeed!"

Feeling the amazing vampire aura emanating from Catherine and Louise, although old White seemed trembling, he still mustered up the courage to express his agreement.

Looking at the firmness on White's old face, Lei Xiao nodded slightly.

Although our side is in a disadvantageous position in this battle, with the addition of White and others, at least the remaining forces of the Kingdom of Grim have been assigned to our own command, which is a little comfort.

"Now that the new king Hall has died, and with the power of Lawrence, the entire Kingdom of Grim is essentially part of my territory."

"Let Lawrence ascend the throne as soon as possible. Although the other party's manipulation methods are still not to be underestimated, at least for the deeply poisoned Kingdom of Grim, it is undoubtedly a new beginning."

Thinking so, Lei Xiao nodded to Catherine and said, "There is no time to lose, let's continue."

"Your Highness, please follow me. We have just found another passage."

Catherine understood and flew to the other side of the door.

Under the guidance of Catherine and others, Lei Xiao, who came to the new area inside the door, noticed.

This is a very large underground square, which is almost endless and extremely empty.

As far as the eye can see, you can occasionally see a few dried fountains and broken sculptures scattered on the ground, covered with dust and vicissitudes.

In addition, just as Catherine and others said, the stone ground here is full of fresh footprints. Lei Xiao is not unfamiliar with most of the boots patterns, which come from the massive equipment he upgraded.

"Your Highness, we were transferred to this empty square area at the beginning."

Catherine's solemn voice once again reached Lei Xiao's ears: "After discovering that Your Highness was not among them, we immediately started searching with concern, and found two closed doors here in total."

"But because the absolute defense barrier on the door is too hard, we have been unable to do anything until Your Highness opened the door from the other side."

After Catherine finished speaking, Jiang Xi and the other three main subordinates nodded with lingering fear, obviously very worried about Lei Xiao's disappearance just now.

"I've already said it before. With the cards your master has, even I can't do anything to him if he goes crazy. Nothing will happen easily."

Louise shrugged and raised her eyebrows and said, "Now you know, right?"

After that, Louise looked at Lei Xiao with curiosity and asked, "Prince of the human race, how did you fight against 300,000 troops alone?"

"It's just a trick, not worth mentioning."

Looking at the heartless blood clan ancestor in front of him, Lei Xiao smiled helplessly and responded, "If Miss Louise was here, she would have escaped unscathed."

"That's true, but it's a pity that those guys in Vilendin are not up to the task. I'm so angry."

Louise stamped her feet and then frowned again.

"Don't worry, as long as we haven't fallen, the pace of pursuing hope will never stop."

Lei Xiao's steady voice echoed back and forth in the empty underground space, easing everyone's nervousness.

"By the way, Prince of the Other World, why can you easily remove the defensive barrier that even I can't open?"

Louise's puzzled voice reached Lei Xiao's ears again.

"I mentioned it just now. It's naturally because of our new comrade Xiaojie."

Lei Xiao just answered here, and a trace of doubt surged on his face.

Although the absolute defensive barrier on the door is extremely hard, even several fifth-level masters can hardly break it.

But Catherine, Louise, and Tiger Stick, the overall strength of the three people is infinitely close to the real sixth-level masters, but even so, they still can't shake it at all, which is indeed a bit surprising.

After all, Xiaojie is only at the fifth level, and she can easily break it.

"Xiao Jie and Wu just mentioned that these defensive barriers are exactly the same as the secret technique used by Xiao Jie, but they were not set up by Xiao Jie herself. Is it because of this that only the fifth-level Xiao Jie can break it?"

"But why does this seemingly true situation occur? If it's not Xiao Jie, then who set up these barriers?"

Just when Lei Xiao was full of questions, a gust of wind swept past, and the group had already arrived at the other end of the empty square.

Under the reflection of the magic light ball, a mottled metal door that was no different from the previous one stood in front, exuding an ancient and unshakable smell.

"Your Highness, this is it."

Catherine stopped and spoke to Lei Xiao.

And Lei Xiao immediately nodded to Xiao Jie, indicating that he should open the door.

"Yes, sir."

Xiao Jie stepped forward quickly and placed her slender hand flat on the door.

For a moment, Xiao Jie, who was slender, undoubtedly formed a sharp contrast with the ancient giant door, and looked extremely small and thin.

But this seemingly fragile thin body suddenly burst out with an extremely powerful energy wave, causing the whistling wind, and the door opened in response.

Seeing this scene, Lei Xiao and the stone elves were naturally no longer surprised, while Catherine, Louise and others all let out low exclamations and could not help but feel a little excited.

This undoubtedly means that we have another powerful general who cannot be underestimated.

As the door slowly opened, everyone noticed.

This time, what appeared in front of them was not a vast space, but a deep tunnel.

I saw gusts of cold wind in the tunnel, constantly exuding a chilling murderous intent.

"It's the breath of a magic trap, be careful."

Lei Xiao immediately took out a bunch of magic scrolls, first blessing himself and everyone with a set of wisdom eye spells to increase the efficiency of seeing through magic traps, and then took out a few manifestation scrolls given by Theresa, and then took his own steps under the cover of Xiaohuan's illusion.

With the cautious footsteps of a group of people, Lei Xiao noticed further after walking in this winding passage for a while.

The space here became narrower and narrower. I saw turbid water droplets seeping out from the top of the cave, dripping down from the slippery stone walls covered with magic moss, and finally gathered on the bumpy ground to form muddy potholes.

The turbid ripples reflected the cautious figures of the group of people, and also reflected a dark, cramped and rough environment.

In the process of moving forward, the group found out as expected.

This place is indeed full of extremely dangerous magic traps, enough to kill the fifth-level strongman who was caught off guard on the spot.

However, under the protection of the wisdom eye spell and the manifestation scroll, especially the manifestation scroll that can identify the weaknesses of the magic trap within a certain period of time like a radar scan, the speed of our team to crack the trap has increased by more than several times.

In the waves of looming magic power, these deadly traps were quickly restored to harmless energy particles silently.

Finally, at the end of this narrow tunnel, a faint light appeared, which was the exit of the tunnel.

After confirming that all the magic traps were broken, the group quickened their pace, and soon the view in front of them became clear.

This is another extremely vast underground space.

I saw three or five extremely dim magic light balls floating on the top of the cave, and the faint light appeared and disappeared from time to time, reflecting rows and rows of vague building outlines.

This is obviously also a residential area.

Because the terrain where the group is located is higher, the layout of the entire residential area is in full view.

The layout here is extremely strange, and the periphery is all double-story houses that are neatly arranged and have exactly the same appearance.

There is no gap between these houses at all, and they are almost completely close together. It looks extremely crowded, which is undoubtedly very different from the layout of ordinary residential areas.

Lei Xiao looked at those identical double houses and couldn't help but widen his eyes.

He was very familiar with this kind of building, it was the 5th-level lord's mansion!

"What is this...?"

Surprised, Lei Xiao looked at at least a thousand level 5 lord mansions crowded together, and immediately thought of his previous speculation.

"Could this be the place where the other party used the alien lords to speed up the "Reverse Time Ceremony"? I didn't expect that the other party would actually use such a heinous and despicable means. "

Lei Xiao's eyes were gloomy, and he looked at the open space in the center of the residential area.

There were many people there, and it seemed that something was going on.

Seeing this, Lei Xiao didn't have time to think about anything else, and immediately nodded to the strong men beside him.

Accompanied by gusts of wind, the group disappeared instantly.

At the same time, the dark square in the core of the residential area was filled with blood and a disgusting smell was everywhere.

Driven by several teams of black-robed brotherhood strongmen with murderous auras all over their bodies, groups of trembling alien lords were constantly moving towards the center of the square.

In front of them, there were flesh-colored objects covered with dense black blood vessels, which were slowly wriggling!

The closer they got to those flesh-colored objects that looked like strange pupae, the more intense the stench that made people's stomachs churn, causing many lords to retch and even spit out a lot of bitter water.

Under the feet of the lords, a huge blood-colored magic circle was rotating.

The deep and complex magic patterns in the flashing blood-red magic light would make people dizzy and almost breathless at a glance.

"Lord No. 19, I don't have much time to wait!"

A black-robed man came to the side of the black-robed man No. 19, who was leading the group, and said, "Just now, Lord First Shura sent a message that the scum from the other world interrupted the transmission of the fools, and they are probably very close to here."

"Don't worry, don't forget that dozens of high-level magic traps have been activated in the passage. Even those despicable aliens and vampires can never get here so quickly!"

The skeleton staff in the hands of the black-robed man No. 19 flashed with a dark green light, and he said leisurely, "These pupae are about to break out of their cocoons. Isn't it a pity to destroy them directly according to the order of Lord First Shura?"

"I will use the flesh and blood of these wastes as the final catalyst to perfectly hatch this group of "rebels", which is much more effective than killing them directly."

"By then, Lord Supreme will definitely reward us well, hehe. "

After that, the black-robed man No. 19 raised his staff with an evil smile, causing the blood-red magic circle to rotate faster.

Above the blood-red magic circle, although the lords of the other world did not know what the other party was going to do, an extremely uneasy atmosphere soon spread among the crowd.

"Brother Li, are we going to die soon?"

Among the lords, the thin female lord looked pale and looked at Li Fan on the side, trembling and said: "Are they going to attack us?"

"Don't worry, we will be fine."

Although Li Fan's legs were so weak that he could hardly stand, he still gritted his teeth and said firmly: "Don't forget that the brave god boss will come to save us!"

"He won't come! How can such a high-ranking big man care about our life or death? Besides, the brave god boss couldn't possibly know that we would be here, right? "

Another terrified skinny lord's eyes were full of despair and fear. He was obviously on the verge of collapse. He said hysterically: "Give up, no one will come to save us!"

After hearing the words of the skinny lord, the other lords also looked dim and lowered their heads in despair.

"A bunch of trash, they are about to die and still thinking about the despicable alien? This is no wonder, after all, they are all despicable guys from the same place, hahaha."

Seeing this scene, the surrounding brotherhood strongmen all showed playful smiles, and they looked like they were ready to watch the show.

"Hehehe, the magic circle is finally completed!"

The skeleton staff in the hands of the black-robed man No. 19 suddenly flashed green light, and then quickly turned into a shocking blood red.

His face hidden behind the mask was full of viciousness, and he laughed grimly: "You bunch of alien trash, all struggle to die under my sacrifice technique! "

After saying that, just as the black-robed man No. 19 was preparing to cast a spell with an evil smile, a tall figure emerged from behind him, with lightning surging in his palm.
