Chapter 1371 Purpose and Changes

"To be honest with you, Your Majesty, we have come here for two reasons. Obtaining high-quality magic crystals is only a secondary matter, and the most important thing is to find the black crystal ball that this lady just mentioned!"

Ruth took a deep breath slowly, and said solemnly on her fair face: "This is extremely important to the light half-elf clan, and the series of actions I have taken are just to obtain this thing in the shortest time and with the greatest hope, otherwise my clan will fall into an irretrievable situation!"

"Miss Bright, you really concealed it very deeply, and you simply fooled us around."

Fanny continued to call Xiaojing, and said with her arms around her brows: "This black crystal ball you are looking for, can't it be a terrible weapon?"

It is not difficult to see from the attitude of the flower fairy queen who still has a grudge that she is obviously still brooding over the previous things.

"Your Majesty, the Flower Fairy, you are too kind. We are just trying to survive. As for what your Majesty is worried about, I can assure you and everyone else that the black crystal ball is just a special token. It may not even be worth anything to you, but it is extremely important to us."

Ruth's fair face became more serious, and she said solemnly, "This will never hurt you in the slightest."

"Having said that, the actions of the light half-elves are a little puzzling, right?"

Broy stroked his chin gently and questioned, "After all, this is the mine of the ancient dark elves, and the tokens stored here must be related to the dark elves. Why do you, who are hostile to the dark elves, come here to look for tokens?"

After Broy finished speaking, Erza and Theresa, who were dark elves, also frowned tightly.

The dwarf elf king was right. This was indeed a little difficult to explain. The most important thing was whether this would have any impact on the current dark elf kingdom.

At the center of the crowd, Lei Xiao was waiting for Ruth's explanation with great interest.

Lei Xiao had naturally anticipated these details.

Just as Broy said, it was a very contradictory thing for Ruth and other light half-elves to look for what they were looking for in the ancient dark elf mine.

Feeling the questioning eyes of Lei Xiao and the others, Ruth opened her mouth, but finally stopped talking.

On the other hand, the old man Mellen beside him had a solemn face and stood up and said, "Your Majesty, everyone, this is indeed a little difficult to understand, but this matter concerns the life and death of the entire light half-elves. Please forgive us for having something difficult to say and cannot answer your question."

After Mellen finished speaking, the other light half-elves also nodded solemnly.

"Just based on this, you want to take away something of unknown origin right under our noses. Isn't this a bit too whimsical?"

Fanny still frowned and insisted: "Don't forget that according to our agreement, all the gains of this mine are occupied by us and the human king, including the resources in the mine, and naturally the black crystal ball."

"Your Majesty the Flower Fairy, please don't go too far. At that time, our agreement only targeted the resources in the mine, but did not cover other things!"

Myron's wrinkled old face also showed a trace of dissatisfaction, and he refuted.

"Elder Myron, we are asking for help now, so be careful with your words."

Ruth stepped forward, waved her hand to signal the old half-elf to step back, and then nodded to Fanny and said, "Your Majesty the Flower Fairy, I know your concerns. Although I cannot tell you the reason for looking for the black crystal ball, I can assure you that we will never do anything that is detrimental to any force."

After saying that, Ruth turned her white palm up, and an extremely delicate light golden badge emerged.

On the delicate palm-sized badge, an ancient lantern was engraved, emitting a shining light.

"Your Majesty the Human Race, everyone, I swear by this badge that everything we do is just for the survival of our people, and there is no other intention!"

Ruth's starry eyes were full of determination, and she nodded heavily to Lei Xiao.

"Is this a token that only the chief of the Light Half-Elves can hold?"

Chris's starry eyes were full of surprise, and she blurted out.

You know, although the Light Half-Elves are attached to the Light Elves, they are also a genuine second-rate force, with considerable status and voice in the Outer Realm, so many things are still known to everyone, including this chief badge engraved with the lantern emblem.

After Chris said this, the other people on our side couldn't help but open their eyes wide. This chief badge represents the supreme power of the Light Half-Elves, which can mobilize all the legions and strong men of the Light Half-Elves.

And the foundation of a second-rate force is probably difficult for ten third-rate forces to compete with, which can be seen from this.

"Yes, this is the emblem of the leader of the light half-elf. Now you should believe it, right? This represents the glory and reputation of our race. No light half-elf will do anything to disgrace this emblem, even if it costs his life."

The golden magic powder on Ruth's fair face shone brightly, and her voice was full of nobility.

After that, Ruth smiled helplessly at Lei Xiao again, and added: "Your Majesty, I know you must be very curious about my identity, but I can't reveal this either. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

"Since Lord Ruth has said this, we will naturally have no other opinions."

Lei Xiao first looked at each other with Fanny, Broy and Chris, and then nodded slightly.

The reason why Fanny showed a reluctance just now was mainly to find out more information. This was also something that Lei Xiao had discussed with everyone before entering the mine.

Now, since the other party is being honest to the maximum extent, we might as well sell the other party a favor. After all, the other party is a genuine second-rate force.

On this point, Lei Xiao has already reached a consensus with Broy, Fanny, Chris and others.

Furthermore, there is another thing that Lei Xiao is extremely concerned about, that is, as an affiliated force protected by the light elves, the light half-elves are currently encountering a crisis that can affect the life and death of the entire group.

But even so, the light elves as protectors did not participate, which was obviously unreasonable.

Even if the light elves and dark elves are currently at war with each other, the main forces of the two cannot leave, and they won't send just ten people like Ruth to solve the crisis, right?

To take a step back, the strength of a first-class force like the Light Elves, which stands at the pinnacle of all races, is enough to solve any crisis faced by the Light Half-elves.

It is not difficult to see from this that perhaps there is some kind of gap between the light half-elves and the light elves. This action is just a private act of the light half-elves, and they don't even want the light elves to know. This is only reasonable.

Of course, Lei Xiao will not express these inferences directly, but it is enough as a reference.

In this case, it is not surprising that the other party hesitates and hesitates.

As for Ruth's true identity, since the other party took out the clan leader's badge, and Myron and other bright half-elves respected her very much, she must have a very important position in the clan, and it was enough to know this.

In addition, the prerequisite for selling the other party's favor is that the black crystal ball really has no effect or danger on us.

In order to achieve this, we naturally have to do some testing first, including checking the attribute column of the crystal ball.

Thinking of this in his mind, Lei Xiao added bluntly: "Your Excellency Ruth, we are willing to cooperate with you to find the crystal ball, but the premise is that you must also fulfill your commitments and remove the self-destruction circle and power of this mine. Magic trap, and the crystal ball needs to be examined by us first."

"I understand, I agree to the conditions put forward by His Majesty the Human Race!"

Ruth nodded without hesitation, then saluted Lei Xiao and said excitedly, "Thank you for your help, His Majesty the Human Race!"

After Ruth said this, other bright half-elves, including Myron, also made the same move.

Among them, Lei Xiao even saw a few young fifth-level half-elves with glistening eyes, and they were so excited that they started to sob faintly.

"Okay, let's get on with it."

Lei Xiao waved his hand, and everyone immediately tightened their nerves again and began to perform their duties while moving forward.

This time, with Xiaojing's assistance, our pace of exploration has accelerated a lot.

Although this ancient mine is extremely large, there are no magic traps set up in the main mining area and various sub-mining areas that need to be mined, so under the premise of being targeted, everything went extremely smoothly.

Especially under the reminder of Xiao Jing Qingqingqingqingqingrulu, those magic traps hidden in the dark have nowhere to hide. Lei Xiao simply changed his strategy and commanded all the magic-type experts present to join the team that broke the magic circle. , assisting the actions of the light half-elves to the greatest extent possible.

"Your Majesty the Human Race, the core of the self-destruction array in the mine has been completely lifted!"

At the entrance of a management area that was obviously larger, Ruth wiped the sweat from her forehead and said with an excited look: "Next, we only need to dismantle some of the auxiliary magic circles, and there will be no destruction here. It’s dangerous!”

"Thank you for your hard work."

Lei Xiao nodded to Ruth and asked, "Do you need to rest for a while?"

"Thank you for your kindness, His Majesty the Human Race. This is nothing to us."

Ruth responded with a smile and waved her hand.

At this moment, fierce shouts of killing suddenly rang out from outside the mine, followed immediately by the bombardment of neat magic cannons that shook the earth and even caused the entire mine to tremble slightly.

Although our group has gone deep into the depths of the mine, these sounds are still obvious and sound extremely intense.

"Sir, what's going on?"

Xiaojing had obviously never encountered such a situation before. In addition to being surprised, a trace of panic suddenly appeared on her fair face.

"Is it finally starting?"

Hearing the sound, Lei Xiao and the others looked at each other and smiled.

This is naturally a duel between the dragonborn army and the troll army or the tauren army. Of course, there are also flowers, wood elves, tree people, dwarfs, humans and other soldiers on our side to assist.

Before that, Lei Xiao, our group and Prince Zhanyi Davis had already arranged everything, just waiting for the other party to run into the trap, so there was nothing to worry about, and Lei Xiao did not even need to come forward in person.

"It doesn't matter, this is just a small confrontation."

Lei Xiao patted Xiao Jing's shoulder lightly, and then ordered: "Let's continue, just leave the above matters to Shuerte, Cornette, Prince Zhanyi Davis and others to handle."

"I understand. I'll follow your instructions."

Xiao Jing nodded obediently, and then said to Lei Xiao: "Sir, the next management area is where the black crystal ball is stored!"

"Great, it seems we need to speed up!"

Ruth's face lit up, and she turned around and devoted herself to the final cleanup of this area.

Not long after, the group had cleaned up all the magic traps here and began to move towards the next management area.

During this process, Lei Xiao also received news from Shult and his subordinate generals that the Tauren and the Troll Army had all crashed into the trap, while our side and the Dragonborn Army were preparing to close the net.

As long as these two uncertain troubles are solved, everything will naturally be solved.

"Sir, the management area where the crystal ball is stored is in front!"

Xiao Jing jumped around Lei Xiao and introduced: "But this place is special. It is not only the largest area, but also looks extremely luxurious!"

As Xiao Jing's voice fell, Lei Xiao really noticed it.

In front of the current mining area, a new passage appeared, which was obviously much wider than other passages.

At the main entrance of the passage, there were two rows of statues of dark elf knights. Although they were covered with traces of time, they were not covered with dust and looked very neat.

This undoubtedly surprised everyone, after all, the previous area was covered with thick dust.

"This was cleaned by the dark elves at the beginning, and it was the only area they remembered to clean."

Xiao Jing shrugged and introduced: "Of course, since they would not leave any traces, the cleaning was also very slow, so I did it for them later."

"So that's the case. It seems that this place must be very important to them. It is indeed a special area."

Hearing this, Lei Xiao's face could not help but show a hint of curiosity.

But just when Lei Xiao was about to command everyone to enter this passage, the urgent reminder of the voice suddenly sounded.

After the connection, the voice of Sean, the captain of the pterosaur knights who was responsible for scouting the battlefield, came out immediately.

"Your Excellency, the situation on the battlefield is a little strange. A large number of unidentified enemy reinforcements suddenly appeared outside our encirclement!"
