Chapter 1277: Unexpected Things and the Market Gate

Displayed on the wooden platform was an oval object the size of a palm.

The oval object was bright silver throughout, with a frosted surface, surrounded by regular and complex golden stripes, just like deep magic lines.

What was even more eye-catching was that the oval object also emitted a faint silver glow, which was extremely conspicuous in the dark wooden house.

"Is this an egg?"

Louise's starry eyes were full of surprise, and she blurted out: "What an unexpected discovery."

"To be precise, it's a mysterious monster egg."

The gray old man narrowed his eyes slightly, and his voice was also full of surprise: "A glowing monster egg, and the surface is so deep, it's simply unheard of."

After hearing the words of the gray old man, Lei Xiao's surprised eyes became more curious.

You know, as the president of the mercenary guild, Gray Old has a wide range of knowledge, and his understanding of various magical beasts is unmatched in the human world. Since even he can't figure out the origin of this egg, it is indeed mysterious.

"Lord, is it possible that the reason why the door opens automatically is to let us see this egg?"

Qiduo stroked her fair chin and pondered: "Otherwise, when the barrier attached to the surface of the wooden house fails, this egg will be torn into pieces by the gravity wind along with the wooden house."

"Your Majesty, I agree. Although this wooden house is still standing here, the gravity barrier is actually crumbling."

Yonier nodded to Lei Xiao and echoed: "If we hadn't come here by chance, I'm afraid these will soon be gone. It no longer exists. It must be that the owner of the house knew that he might not be able to return, so he applied an automatic opening induction array to the door before leaving. "

"What are you waiting for? The lord cares about everything, so he will naturally not watch this monster egg being crushed in the violent energy gale. "

Louise looked eager to try, nodded to Lei Xiao and said, "I will go and get the egg back now!"

After getting Lei Xiao's permission, Louise's body was suddenly covered by a rich blood-colored energy barrier, and she flew straight to the wooden house.

Not long after, when she returned to Lei Xiao, she had already held the mysterious monster egg in her hands.

"It is really magical."

Lei Xiao took the monster egg emitting a faint silver glow, and a warm feeling spread from his palm.

Feeling the warmth full of life, Lei Xiao tried to open the attribute bar of the egg, but it only showed "? ? ? Egg" on it.

"My Lord, the wooden platform where this egg is stored is covered with a simple hatching array. I have written it all down, including the specific hatching temperature."

Louise patted her chest and laughed.

"You did a good job. I'll leave it to you to hatch it."

Lei Xiao handed the egg back to Louise and nodded slightly, saying, "I'll let Chao Yan and Hong Ye, who are good at controlling the temperature, assist you later."

Lei Xiao clearly understood that although this girl usually looked unreliable, she was still meticulous when doing things seriously, which could be seen from the previous command of the huge fortress.

"As you command, I will do my best!"

Louise carefully took back the monster egg, and said with an eager look: "Please rest assured, Lord, such a strange monster egg will definitely hatch a powerful guy, and will definitely become your new helper!"

"Come on, I will reward you with a feast of feasts."

Lei Xiao habitually touched the other's head, and then refocused his attention on the cabin in front of him, and immediately ordered: "Since this place may be destroyed at any time, let's go in and explore it carefully."

After receiving Lei Xiao's order, Gray Old and Joniel immediately took the brunt and walked straight into the house.

However, after a careful inspection, except for an ordinary wooden water cup engraved with strange patterns, there was no other gain.

Just when the group had just left the location of the cabin, the change happened.

Without any warning, a crisp breaking sound rang out, and the purple barrier covering the surface of the cabin had already collapsed, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

The next second, the wooden house without the protection of the barrier was instantly torn into pieces by the strong wind, as if it had never existed.

"Fortunately, we arrived in time."

Louise held the monster egg in her arms, and a trace of doubt appeared on her delicate face. She asked puzzledly: "Lord, where did the owner of the house go?"

"The answer is already very obvious."

Lei Xiao's sight fell on the giant abyss mouth not far away again, and he said thoughtfully: "It seems that even a gravity-type strongman at the peak of the sixth level and who is compatible with the attributes here will find it difficult to walk out of the abyss. I have to say that it is really more and more curious about what is in the abyss."

After hearing Lei Xiao's words, all the strong men looked at the abyss mouth where gravity strong winds were constantly gushing out, and they all looked stern.

After a while, Joniel said: "Your Majesty, could this be the crack of the catastrophe?"

Hearing the voice, a trace of solemnity appeared on the faces of the strong men again.

Even the peak sixth-order powerhouses of the gravity system have gone there without returning. If an energy gale of this magnitude were to sweep across the human world, the result would naturally be self-evident.

"I have just considered this issue, but according to the Hero King, the Cataclysm Rift is located in a corner of the human world, and this place is obviously far beyond the designated range."

Lei Xiao frowned and pondered for a moment, and responded: "But even if this is not a Cataclysm Rift, it must not be ignored. One day we will have to figure out the truth here ourselves."

Lei Xiao clearly understood that for the "Fortress", this bottomless canyon is undoubtedly like a cracked floor tile that is constantly filled with wind, full of mystery and unknown.

Therefore, if he really controls this "Fortress", or even if he only controls a part of it, as long as he has enough ability, it is a problem that must be faced, otherwise the "Fortress" is obviously not as solid as a rock.

"Okay, now is not the time to think about these things, let's focus on the "test" given to us by the Shadow Market. "

Lei Xiao gathered his thoughts and pointed to another shadow not far away. He saw a glittering crystal in the sand and stone, which was obviously a few gravity prisms.

In the end, Lei Xiao and his party found a total of 15 gravity prisms, and then returned to the original route. They soon left the weightless area covered by the Upside-Down Canyon and returned to the entrance of the canyon.

Just when Lei Xiao and others appeared, the huge Shadow Market immediately emerged out of thin air and opened the city gate immediately. It was obvious that they had been waiting for a long time.

"These guys are really eager for gravity prisms."

Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, first summoned the subordinates who stayed behind, and then walked straight towards the city gate.

When they approached the giant city gate, the manager led a group of market guards and had been waiting for a long time.

"Nothing is more exciting than seeing His Majesty return. "

A low and hoarse voice sounded, and the manager came forward, but finally stood firm at the border between the city gate and the outside world.

"I have lived up to your expectations and finally found the gravity prism successfully."

Lei Xiao's palm turned up, and several crystal clear brown crystals emerged. Although this thing can automatically float in the air, it is obviously easy for Lei Xiao to suppress it in his palm with energy.

"It is indeed a gravity prism filled with energy!"

The manager's voice revealed a hint of excitement, and he stretched out his hand to take it.

But Lei Xiao took a step back and smiled: "Your Excellency the Manager, before this, may I ask if the human race has completed the trial of the Shadow Market?"

"Your Majesty has indeed completed the trial I set. "

The manager, who knew that he had lost his composure just now, returned to his calm state at the beginning and nodded, saying: "However, I still need to confirm the quality of the gravity prism. Your Majesty, please give me all the harvest for me to check."

After that, the manager stretched out his hand again, and Lei Xiao did not say anything else, and made the gesture of handing it to the other party again.

But just when Lei Xiao's palm was about to approach the border of the city gate, he seemed to remember something and pulled his palm back.

"What does your majesty mean?"

Seeing that the cooked duck flew out again, this time, the manager's tone clearly brought a hint of anxiety.

Seeing this scene, the strong men gathered around Lei Xiao were all excited.

Just as the lord said, after getting the gravity prism that the other party needed, the initiative was indeed in our hands.

"Your Excellency the manager is really a noble man who forgets things."

Lei Xiao smiled faintly and said: "Do you remember the question I asked at that time? The manager promised that he would give the answer after passing the trial. "

"So that's why."

The manager was obviously well prepared and responded immediately: "Your Majesty's first question is, after the human race passes the trial, when will the real Shadow Market be held and whether other races have been invited, right?"

"To be honest with you, according to the rules of the Shadow Market, both official invitations and personal invitations must be sent to a specified number before the market can be held."

"Among them, the official invitation is easier to say, because the strength range of the races is mostly fixed, and it is easy to send, while the whereabouts of the recipients of the personal invitation are mostly not fixed, and it takes a little longer."

The manager's introduction seemed very professional and well-organized: "So please be patient, Your Majesty, I will send you a new invitation in a while, and once the market is about to be held, I will notify Your Majesty as soon as possible. ”

At this point, the manager added: "The reputation of the Misty Shadow Market is well-known in the outer domain, and even those peak races will not neglect it. Your Majesty, just wait patiently."

"So, the date of the market is not fixed at present?"

Lei Xiao's face did not show any ripples, and he raised his eyebrows slightly and said: "Please answer the second question, Mr. Manager. Does every force that is officially invited need to complete the trial?"

"If the answer is yes, why does Mr. Manager issue normal invitation letters to the human race instead of special letters for trials?"

Hearing this, the manager was still calm and responded: "Your Majesty's questions are always so sharp. To answer your majesty, whether to have a trial or not is not a hard rule of the Misty Shadow Market, but the manager decides it according to the situation of the participants, so there is no trial letter dedicated to the Misty Shadow Market. Please don't blame your majesty."

"Thank you for your answer, Mr. Manager, I suddenly understand a lot. "

Although he knew that these were not all the other party's true feelings, Lei Xiao obviously understood something from them and did not continue to ask.

Lei Xiao still maintained a faint smile, shrugged and said: "Then, please take the gravity prism away, Mr. Manager."

After that, Lei Xiao stretched out his palm with the crystal again, but this time he did not hold it close to the boundary inside the door, but stepped back a distance.

So far, the meaning of Lei Xiao's expression is obvious. If the other party needs gravity prisms, they can go out of the city to get them.

Seeing this scene, our strong men reacted one after another. The lord was obviously confirming his guess to see if the other party would really weaken after leaving the city.

The manager obviously noticed something and waved his hand helplessly, saying, "Your Majesty, please complete the handover at the city gate."

"We went deep into the dangerous area to obtain the items. Don't you want to take even two steps?"

Lei Xiao still stood there and asked, "Or is it that the manager can't leave the city for some personal reasons? For example, if you leave the city, your own strength will be greatly reduced, and you can't get the energy blessing of the market?"

"This..."

Hearing Lei Xiao's question, the manager was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly explained, "Your Majesty misunderstood, but according to the rules of the market, no one, including me, can leave the market at will. 's gate. "

"Mr. Manager, according to what you said, you are the highest manager of the Miying Market, but you are still bound by one market rule after another, and you keep talking about the rules. "

Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes and smiled and said, "Could it be that there is not only one Miying Market, but a certain form of force. As a member of this force, Mr. Manager has to be bound by the rules?"

"What? It turns out that there is more than one Miying Market?"

Hearing this, not only the managers and market guards were stunned, but even our strong men looked at each other. Lei Xiao's words were obviously beyond everyone's expectations.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor of the Human Race, please do not make groundless speculations."

After a moment of silence, the administrator spoke again: "Otherwise, I will deprive the human race of the qualification to attend the meeting."

"A market that doesn't even have a confirmed time, do you think I would be interested?"

Lei Xiao ignored the other party's threat, but turned around and made a gesture of leaving to the powerful people around him, saying lightly: "Since Your Excellency the Administrator is unwilling to be honest, the human race will not lack such a friend, but I will take all the gravity prisms away."

After that, Lei Xiao took a step and left without looking back.
