Chapter 1387 A Familiar Area

Following the sound, Lei Xiao discovered that the visitor was none other than Ruth and other bright half-elves.

"Sorry, Your Majesty the Human Race, our race is currently facing an unprecedented major crisis. We are on pins and needles. Can you please let us go get the crystal ball now?"

Ruth's fair face showed a trace of eagerness, and she said: "Your Majesty, I know that the fierce battle has just ended, and your Majesty must have many things to deal with, but we really don't have much time left."

"Understood, let's set off immediately."

Lei Xiao did not hesitate, nodded to Ruth and other bright half-elves and said: "With the help of Jace and others, the road to the ancient mine will be smooth."

"Thank you for your support, His Majesty the Human Race!"

Upon hearing this, Ruth's delicate face was filled with joy and she quickly expressed her gratitude. Myron and other bright half-elves also had the same expression.

"You don't have to be polite. Don't forget that we are Paoze who fought side by side and are friends who have lived together through life and death."

Lei Xiao walked towards the outside of the command hall and said with a smile: "You have assisted the human race and fought for the human race. The human race will never forget this friendship."

"We will never forget His Majesty the human race's friendship for the light half-elves!"

Ruth nodded solemnly, and then followed closely beside Lei Xiao.

It didn't take long for Lei Xiao and Ruth to arrive at the area where the black crystal balls were stored in the ancient mine.

At the entrance of this area, there are still two rows of neat and tidy dark elf knight statues standing around, which look full of ancient and mysterious atmosphere.

"According to Xiaojing, this is the only place that the ancient dark elves remembered to clean. It seems that there is indeed something special about it."

Just as Lei Xiao stopped in front of the statue, the figures of Jace and Liana flashed out.

"Your Majesty the Human Race, most of the magic traps here have been lifted, and some are still being lifted."

Jace nodded stiffly to Lei Xiao, and immediately guided him from the front: "Please follow me, come this way."

"Thank you for your hard work, we only take the black crystal ball and will never touch other things inside at will."

Lei Xiao maintained due respect for the dark elf general who had just assisted him in leveraging the scale of victory, and nodded slightly.

After that, under the guidance of Jace and Liana, the group took their steps again.

After passing through the long and neat ancient passage, the group arrived at a rather spacious ancient hall.

Looking around, Lei Xiao noticed that apart from being clean and tidy, the layout here was not fundamentally different from the previous management area, except that there was a new passage at the end of the hall.

Directly above the passage, several ancient elven characters are painted with flying dragons and phoenixes, which look vigorous and powerful.

"I seem to have seen these words somewhere."

Lei Xiao looked at the ancient words with unknown meanings, and a hint of deep thought passed through his eyes.

"Lord, that is exactly what "temple" means. "

Jiang Li approached Lei Xiao and whispered.

"No wonder it looks so familiar."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly and reacted immediately.

At that time, when I was in the dungeon of the ruins of the Bright Elves next to Shen Banxia's territory, I did see the same words.

"It turns out that there is a temple at the end of the passage. No wonder the ancient dark elves still remember this place. Although they call themselves people abandoned by the gods, they still have not forgotten this place deep in their hearts. It is really amazing."

Lei Xiao thought this, with a hint of confusion in his eyes.

"I remember that what was placed in the temple of the ancient light elves' ruins was actually a statue of the goddess of the dark elves. This is undoubtedly extremely inconsistent, and the secret has not been revealed until now."

"I wonder if something strange will happen here?"

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao began to walk towards the temple passage.

Beside Lei Xiao, Ruth obviously recognized the words of the temple, and a touch of sublimity flashed across her fair face involuntarily.

After Jace's guidance, he passed through the passage engraved with exquisite wall carvings. When Lei Xiao's eyes suddenly opened up again, he was already standing at the gate of a temple.

The area here is quite similar to that of the Bright Elf Clan's temple, with a total area of ​​five to six hundred square meters and a height of about ten meters.

Although the light inside the temple is relatively dim, instead of making people feel depressed, it is filled with an inexplicable sense of holiness.

In this temple, there are also several rows of towering giant stone pillars.

These giant stone pillars are neat and uniform, and their surfaces are all engraved with extremely complex and exquisite hollow carvings, depicting the scene of the elves making sacrifices or worshiping. They look grand and extraordinary.

At a glance, it looks like a piece of finely crafted work of art, silently telling the brilliance and splendor of the dark elf civilization in the Silver Moon Era.

Not only that, but the same is true on the ground and surrounding walls. There are numerous wall sculptures everywhere. Those lines intertwine and converge with each other, easily outlining everything in the world. It is breathtaking and full of the extremely high artistic attainments of the elves.

"This place is not only very similar to that god, it is simply carved from the same mold."

Surrounded by everyone, Lei Xiao calmly walked down the stone steps connecting the corridor and the temple, and couldn't help but marvel in his heart.

"Your Majesty, have you ever seen a similar temple?"

Seeing Lei Xiao's familiar appearance, Ruth's fair face suddenly burst into curiosity.

"I just feel extremely safe surrounded by you all."

Lei Xiao smiled slightly, but did not reveal any details about the ruins of the ancient light elves.

Lei Xiao clearly understood that although he had already made good friends with Ruth and other light half-elves, they had not yet reached the point where they could express their feelings to each other. After all, the other party's old employer was the light elves. Even if Ruth could keep the secret, he could still keep secrets. Don't forget there are other light half-elves here.

If he revealed some clues and the news leaked out, the light elves would undoubtedly be able to easily deduce that the ruins must be in the human realm, which would probably be detrimental to their hometown.

The most important thing is that the secret deep in the ancient light elves' dungeon has not yet been revealed, and he will never let other forces interfere.

"By the way, Your Excellency Ruth, there is one more thing that I am very curious about, and I would like to ask you to clarify it."

Lei Xiao changed the topic and asked curiously: "How did you know that there was an ancient mine thousands of miles away and that there was a black crystal ball stored in it?"

"this……"

After hearing Lei Xiao's inquiry, Ruth couldn't help but became speechless again.

She and Myron looked at each other, and they both saw a trace of hesitation in each other's eyes, obviously not knowing whether to tell the answer.

Noticing the expressions of the two bright half-elves, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly with an expected expression.

I have already analyzed it before. For any force, this detection method is indeed a top secret.

However, he also guessed the answer to the matter.

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao simply said the answer in his heart: "Your Excellency Ruth, you must also know that my other identity is an alien lord who came to this world, and I will tell you about the mine and the crystal ball. The person there is also a lord from another world, right?"

Hearing the sound, the expressions of Ruth, Myron and other bright half-elves obviously became a little weird, as if their pointed ears that were not slender were pinched by Lei Xiao.

"His Majesty the Human Race is really good at predicting things."

After a while, Ruth finally lowered her psychological defense and affirmed: "Yes, it is another alien lord who revealed all this to us!"

"Is that true?"

After getting the affirmative answer, a flash of surprise flashed across Lei Xiao's eyes, and he nodded thoughtfully.

Although I had already guessed this possibility, I was still a little surprised when I got the confirmation from Ruth.

After all, I have never received any news about the foreign lords from the outer world, which undoubtedly means that there are indeed foreign lords from the outer world who have successfully survived, and can even come into contact with powerful people like Ruth.

"It seems that the manager is right. The reason why these foreign lords from outside the world can survive must be protected by certain forces. But the manager also said that these forces' views on the alien lords are not so much Not as a friend, but as a guardian of rare magical beasts."

Thinking of this in his mind, Lei Xiao followed the clues and said: "Your Excellency Ruth, can you tell me about the alien lord in detail?"

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, human race. I just met her by some chance and got this crucial information. I didn't know much about her. To be more precise, I didn't know her at all. Chance."

Ruth shook her head helplessly, and simply told everything: "To be honest with your Majesty, the alien lord is not under our protection, and we are not protecting any alien lord, but under the protection of the light elves. Next, they don’t allow us to have free contact with the alien lords they protect.”

"Then can you tell me how the lords of other worlds who are protected by the light elves are doing?"

Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully and asked.

"They...at least have been guaranteed safety and enough to have enough food and clothing."

Ruth was obviously considering her words, and she responded with lowered eyebrows: "As for the others, I don't have a deep understanding of them. After all, we are also under the protection of the light elves, and we are often unable to control ourselves. "

After saying that, Ruth couldn't help but sigh, feeling quite sympathetic.

As a light half-elf, she clearly understands that there is no essential difference between the light half-elves, who are also controlled by the light elves, and the lords of other worlds. They are all just pawns.

"I understand, I understand your difficulties."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly and did not continue to ask.

Naturally, Lei Xiao was very clear about the meaning revealed in Ruth's words.

Although the light half-elves and the light elves are in the same camp, they are obviously not in an equal relationship.

It's no wonder, after all, in this different world where strength is respected, power is only in the hands of the strong.

"In addition, as I thought before, there is one more thing that is obvious, that is, at least for now, the relationship between the light elves and the light half-elves is not so harmonious."

"Otherwise, since there is some kind of major crisis in the light half-elf clan, the light elves won't just sit back and watch. Even if they are currently confronting the dark elves, they won't be unable to send out a strong person, right?"

"This can be seen from Ruth's feeble response just now."

Lei Xiao had just thought of this in his mind, and the group had already passed through the front and middle section of the temple extended by giant stone pillars and arrived at the end of the temple.

What appeared in front of everyone was a giant statue of nearly ten meters. The statue was so tall that it almost hit the ceiling of the temple.

Looking up, it was an image of an elf woman, wearing a tight outfit, with graceful curves, arms hanging naturally, holding a short blade in one hand and a longbow in the other. She looked elegant and majestic, and even her starry eyes revealed a sense of killing.

Needless to say, the long pointed ears and unusually beautiful face that represent the elves are more eye-catching. What is more eye-catching is that the goddess statue exudes a sacred breath throughout the body, which undoubtedly forms a sharp contrast with the killing in the eyes, giving people an inexplicable feeling of worship.

"It is exactly the same as the goddess statue in the underground temple of the light elves."

A touch of surprise flashed across Lei Xiao's eyes, and finally his sight fell on the feet of the goddess statue.

There stood a stone altar, and on the altar was a pitch-black crystal ball, faintly emitting a mysterious and profound atmosphere.

The crystal ball was embedded in the groove of the altar. Although it had been wiped, it also revealed an ancient and mottled smell, and it had undoubtedly been stored there for a long time.

Around the altar, there were dozens of ancient dark elf magicians concentrating on casting spells. Judging from the breath, they were obviously removing the last magic trap here.

"That's it!"

Seeing this scene, Ruth's starry eyes lit up immediately, and she blurted out excitedly: "That's what we need!"

After saying that, Ruth, who felt a little out of control, gathered her mind and smiled embarrassedly at Lei Xiao.

"General Jess, we will take this thing away in a while."

Lei Xiao nodded to Ruth first, and then turned to the ancient dark elf general.

"Your Majesty, please do as you please. We have already reached a consensus."

Jace nodded woodenly and said affirmatively: "This thing has long lost its original function. We have long forgotten its function."

As Jace's voice fell, the crisp sound of broken chains rang out, and a violent energy surged out around the altar, and then quickly dissipated. It was obvious that the last magic trap was successfully broken.

"Your Majesty, you can take it down now."

Jace first commanded other ancient dark elf magicians to stand by, and then nodded to Lei Xiao.

"I understand, then let me see what is so magical about this black crystal ball."

Lei Xiao took a deep breath slowly, and then walked towards the ancient altar surrounded by Xiao Jie and Xiao Jing.
