Chapter 1451: Telling and Returning

"Are you asking who I am?"

After hearing Lei Xiao's question, the old man in sand robe couldn't help but have a trace of doubt on his deeply wrinkled face. His face was full of vicissitudes of life, and he began to mutter to himself: "Three thousand years ago, this is also a question I have been wondering about. Unfortunately, I Even if I rack my brain, I can’t remember any useful information.”

"I seem to be just a speck of dust among thousands, not knowing where I came from or where I am going."

"Who am I? Who am I? Why did I die here? Who buried me here? Who did I bury back then?"

After saying that, the old man in sand robes shook his head helplessly at Lei Xiao and responded: "Boy, you are the second person in the past three thousand years to ask me this question, but unfortunately, I still cannot answer your question now. Because I have forgotten too many things, everything about me is already incomplete.”

"Have you also forgotten everything? It's really a familiar answer. It seems that this guy must have experienced the blank era, or even died in the blank era."

"But neither Bing Lao, Shirley, Shuang, nor other blank era survivors I met, or even some remaining ancient books mentioned that there was such a huge and terrifying existence in the Silver Moon Era. Although I don't know What is the structure of its body? But it must be at least several thousand meters, or even tens of thousands of meters long, right?"

"It is absolutely impossible for such a conspicuous existence to remain unknown. Perhaps Bing Lao and others have also forgotten this existence?"

"Or is it a powerful existence that only appeared in the blank era, such as a pet kept in captivity by a certain god, a weapon created by a certain god, or even a certain god himself? Because he is usually in the God's Domain, he will naturally not be attacked by everything. The clan is familiar with it.”

"Furthermore, he is obviously afraid of the power of the gods, which seems to confirm the above conjecture to a considerable extent."

"But it seems to have some potential connection with "eclipse", so what's going on? "

"But what is certain is that this guy must have a certain, or even extremely close connection with the Blank Era."

Lei Xiao, who knew that he had insufficient information at present, did not continue to think, but asked: "Sir, you said that I am the second person in three thousand years, then who is the first person?"

"The first person's appearance is not the same as yours, but he is very similar to the one next to him."

The old man in sand robe pointed at Xina and said, "The only difference is that the first person's snake tail is blue."

"Blue snake tail?"

Xina's beautiful eyes lit up, and she obviously thought of something, and blurted out to Lei Xiao: "Your Majesty the human race, the person this old man is talking about is most likely the ancestor of the Nu family, and he is also the first person after the blank era. A Gorgon Queen!"

"According to the royal chronicles, that ancestor is the Blue Snake Tail. It is precisely because that ancestor reached an agreement with an unfathomable existence that when the queen is crowned in the future, I will be able to activate the magic stone tablet, and then From it, you can obtain the magic skills left by your ancestors! As for why you can improve your strength, it’s because of that unfathomable gift!”

"It is precisely for this reason that our ancestors regarded this place as a sacred place for us. Although in the next three thousand years, the unfathomable existence never appeared, so that later queens even thought it was just It’s a legend, but the ritual of activating the stone tablet has been completely preserved to this day.”

Xina looked at the old man in sand robes in disbelief, and said: "It seems that this old gentleman must be the inexplicable existence recorded in the chronicles!"

After saying that, another look of disbelief appeared on Xina's fair face.

Before entering this magical space, even she herself did not believe the content in the records, and she did not expect that the special white space that her family had always regarded as a confidential place would actually be the inside of a skeleton that could not be understood.

"Is there an incomprehensible existence? It turns out that that person described me like this, and it's appropriate. After all, even I don't know what I am."

The old man in sand robe nodded slightly and affirmed: "I did reach an agreement with that person back then. That person tried his best to find my identity, and I helped that person's successor pass on some of his good skills. As for improving his strength , that’s just a by-product of inheritance. After all, inheritance requires a little bit of my power, even if it’s so weak that it can be ignored.”

"If it's so weak that it can be ignored, can it significantly increase the strength of a sixth-level powerhouse? It's really a breathtaking statement."

Lei Xiao smiled helplessly, and soon his expression became solemn again, and continued to ask: "Are those countless fist-sized white eyeball-shaped objects outside also part of you?"

"You mean those Devouring Guards? They are indeed a part of me."

The old man in sand robe responded with a matter-of-fact look: "Since they have appeared, it means that someone is trying to forcibly activate the stone tablet. After all, the stone tablet is my skeleton and is connected to the origin of my life. Forcibly activating the stone tablet is tantamount to If they threaten me to some extent, it’s not surprising that they appear automatically and then attack.”

"Of course, this may be extremely difficult for you to understand, but it is just a part of my body mechanism. In addition, the image you see is naturally not my original appearance, but I have transformed into something you can understand. It’s just the appearance.”

Hearing this, Belinda, who had been cast a silence spell and a variety of restraint spells, looked regretful and furious. In a rage, she spit out a large mouthful of blood, and then fainted.

"Phagocytic guards? Automatically attack after sensing a threat? They are almost the same as immune cells. If you think about it carefully, the shape of those phagocytic guards is indeed very similar to cells."

Lei Xiao naturally ignored Belinda, but immediately grasped the key point of the other party's words, and suddenly said: "So, they regard us and those Gorgons as intruders who have entered your body. , then took the initiative to attack?”

"Yes, they are just a part of my body. Even though I have died, as long as the origin of my life has not completely disappeared, they will still faithfully perform their mission."

The old man in sand robe still looked like it was natural and nodded.

Hearing what the other party said, although it was indeed a bit unbelievable, Lei Xiao reacted quickly.

No wonder those Devouring Guards regarded Xina as a kindred spirit. When Xina was crowned, she had accepted the opponent's power and her strength greatly increased. There must still be traces of the opponent's power in her body. This situation is not enough. No surprise.

"Old sir, we don't mean any offense. The culprit who forcibly activated the stone tablet has been captured and will be punished with the most severe punishment. Please allow us to leave for the sake of reaching an agreement with our ancestors." Here it is!”

Xina's fair face was filled with eagerness, and she quickly saluted the old man in sand robe while caressing his chest.

"It doesn't matter. Although you attacked the stone tablet just now, it only woke me up from my sleep. I won't argue with you."

The sand-robed old man shrugged, and then said: "But unfortunately, except for this spiritual space and a small area near the stone monument, I can no longer control other things in the outside world, including those Devouring Guards. "

As soon as the sand-robed old man said these words, everyone who was originally in joy suddenly froze down again. Lannis and other strong cat people even had their ears drooped and their faces were at a loss.

It has to be said that since entering this sacred place of the Gorgon, everything has been too bizarre and far beyond their imagination.

"Even if you can't directly control the Devouring Guards in the outside world, you should know other ways to leave here, right?"

Just when the morale of the team was getting lower and lower, Lei Xiao's calm voice sounded, and he said to the old man in sand robes: "Please give me some advice."

"There is indeed a way to leave here, and that is for me to forcefully send a signal and proactively inform the Devouring Guards that the crisis has been resolved, and they will naturally disappear and reintegrate into my body."

The old man in sand robe nodded calmly and said: "Forcing this signal to send out will greatly consume my already extremely weak life source. Why should I help you? Why don't you all stay with me here? Wouldn't everyone be happy? ? This is a space created by my spiritual power. I believe you will fall in love with it soon. ”

"Unfortunately, we appreciate your kindness, but we still have unfinished missions."

Lei Xiao decisively rejected the other party's proposal and said: "If I am not wrong, you must be extremely interested in my life experience, otherwise you would not have reached an agreement with the ancestor of the Gorgon."

"But it's a pity that even though three thousand years have passed, you still haven't found anything, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't still know who you are."

After having the experience of cooperating with Jess and others, Lei Xiao was obviously already comfortable with such incidents, and continued: "My purpose all along is to find out the truth that has been forgotten by this world, including Your Excellency. Those things you want to know most, why don’t you give yourself a little more hope?”

"You didn't lie to me, and you have a special and long-lost power in you, which even makes me feel a little afraid. Although my current strength has almost reached the point of being negligible, even the number one at the peak of the sixth level Personally, I have never felt this way, you are indeed a bit unusual.”

After pondering for a moment, the old man in sand robe nodded to Lei Xiao and said, "But how can you prove that you will come back?"

"It's very simple, because there must be something that I'm interested in hidden in you. It's just that you and I don't know the connection now. And this so-called connection is the truth that you and I are longing for."

Lei Xiao smiled lightly and responded: "If I find the truth, I will naturally return here again."

"I understand. The reason why I am still lingering is to learn everything that is covered in dust."

The old man in sand robe narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Lei Xiao for a long time, then nodded and said: "That's all, let me see you off."

As the old man in sand robe finished speaking, a sandstorm suddenly arose. Countless sand grains quickly retreated and disappeared, and soon returned to the pure white space that was extremely empty at the beginning, and the old man in sand robe himself had long since disappeared.

Amidst the howling wind, the scene of countless sand grains scattering was extremely shocking, and everyone could not help but widen their eyes.

Immediately afterwards, the old man's old and slightly weak voice came to everyone's ears: "Okay, I have sent a signal to the Devouring Guards, you are free to leave my body, boy, don't forget you commitment.”

"This vast desert is my incarnation. It was formed under the influence of my corpse. I hope that when you see this desert, you will remember your promise."

The moment the old voice sounded, the scene in front of our group suddenly changed, and we were back in front of the magic stone tablet on the altar.

"Lord, that weird old man did not lie. We did return to the real space from his spiritual space!"

Xiao Jing's starry eyes lit up and blurted out. As a stone elf who is good at perception and concealment, she undoubtedly has a very keen insight into the outside world.

Looking around, I saw that the Devouring Guards who were crowded just now were quickly merging into the surrounding white structure. The walls that could not be broken were also melting the ice and snow, making the entire space finally become spacious.

"Very good, time is running out, let's go!"

Seeing this, Lei Xiao didn't have time to say anything else. He and Xi Na, Lannis and other strong men immediately flew out and rushed towards the entrance of the secret passage when they came.

After that, the group's actions went smoothly and they soon returned to the ground.

At this time, the catmen were still fighting fiercely with their opponents, but the opponents were obviously at a disadvantage and their momentum was sluggish.

"Belinda has been defeated, why don't you surrender immediately?"

Sheena had obviously cast some kind of mirror spell, magnifying her body dozens of times and reflecting it in the air, and her voice resounded throughout the battlefield.

Hearing Sheena's stern voice, the Gorgons, whose morale was already very low, had no intention of resisting stubbornly. They immediately put down their weapons and knelt down to Sheena, trying to get the Queen's forgiveness.

The remaining liches and undead were soon wiped out, and there was no sound anymore.

"Your Majesty, we should go to the Desolate Fortress without delay. It is time to make Lucas and the liches pay the price!"

When the cat army regrouped, Xi Na nodded to Lei Xiao and said seriously.

"Yes, they will pay an unbearable price for this."

Lei Xiao said so, and took his first step, and the group rushed towards the Ice Stone City. (End of this chapter)
