Chapter 1466: Encircled

As soon as Lei Xiao said this, there was a sudden silence around him. Almost everyone present, including Loris and Sina, looked more solemn or frowned.

According to the description of the surviving alliance general, although the outline and image of the giant statue standing deep in the ruins could not be seen clearly, and no one knew what it was, since there were a series of demon statues and liches in groups, the answer was obvious.

According to the records of ancient documents, since the winter war in the Sun Era, that is, after the gods defeated the evil gods, although all the evil gods died, there would still be residual demons or the sons of the evil gods from time to time, trying to continue the destruction and death, and secretly established many evil god temples and demon temples.

Since the Silver Moon Era, the sons of the gods of all races, and even the gods themselves, have fought against these remnants head-on, and eliminated all the demons and sons of the evil gods they saw. The documents also recorded that the evil flames had been completely extinguished.

But from the current situation, whether it is the son of the evil god that Lei Xiao encountered in the human territory, or the current lich, they are obviously the remnants of those years.

And the ancient ruins discovered by Old Gary are probably an evil god temple or a demon temple, and the true face of the unknown statue must be the minions and servants of the evil god, or even the evil god himself.

"Your Majesty, do you mean that the unknown giant statue bewitched Waters?"

Loris took a deep breath and asked.

"This is the only reasonable answer."

Lei Xiao affirmed Loris's opinion and continued: "Perhaps it is not a statue at all, but like the lich, it is in a deep sleep, but although the statue has not yet reached the level of awakening, it is enough to bewitch people."

"That makes sense. So, the opponent we are facing from the beginning is not just the lich, but also the true face of the giant statue?"

Xina frowned and nodded thoughtfully.

"Do you remember what we have been speculating about the backer behind the lich?"

Lei Xiao gently stroked his chin and continued, "Perhaps that backer is not a second-rate force at all."

"Could it be that the true face of the giant statue is the real backer of the lich?"

Loris took over the conversation and said suddenly, "In this way, everything makes sense! After all, those nearby second-rate forces are currently guarding against each other, and they have no manpower and energy to take care of our side!"

After saying that, Loris also frowned tightly.

This undoubtedly means that our real opponent is obviously much more difficult than a second-rate force that cannot take care of this place.

Hearing this, the other people on our side also looked solemn, and subconsciously tightened their weapons in their hands.

If that is an evil god temple, then don't we have to compete with the evil god? That is an existence that even gods cannot despise.

"Don't worry, it shouldn't be the real evil god. Otherwise, with the power of the evil god to deceive all races, it would have swept across the entire plate. How could the lich stay here all the time?"

Lei Xiao saw what everyone was thinking and added: "So, the answer is self-evident."

As soon as Lei Xiao said this, the extremely tense atmosphere eased a lot, and almost everyone was secretly relieved.

The human emperor is right. If the opponent is extremely powerful, it is impossible to sit still and not even offend the second-rate forces.

If it is not the evil god but the devil, maybe we will still have the strength to fight.

"But your Majesty, we have never encountered any other terrible existence since the beginning of the battle with the lich."

Old Gary's voice was also much more solemn, and he said, "Could it be that the situation is not that bad?"

"Old leader, no matter what, we have to make the worst plan and mental preparation. The reason why the backer behind the lich did not show up back then was probably because his strength had not recovered yet."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly and responded, "And now, a long time has passed. Even if his strength has not fully recovered, he will still be a terrible force. Otherwise, he would never try to get involved in the Desert Alliance, the Rainforest Fortress Alliance, and my territory at the same time."

"Your Majesty is right. If our Broken Valley Alliance had won that year, there would not be such a disaster!"

Old Gary slapped his hand bones on the wall and sighed heavily, while Loris and Sina also looked helpless.

If their alliance had sent troops to help at that time, perhaps they could have strangled the evil in the cradle, but unfortunately, there is no if in history.

"But even if we have never noticed the existence of the backers behind the lich, and even the nearby second-rate forces have not noticed it, don't the first-rate forces at the top of the myriad races notice it?"

A trace of doubt emerged on Lannis's resolute face, and he couldn't help but blurt out: "If they noticed it, why didn't they take action to destroy the lich? After all, in the first two eras, it was the enemy of all races."

"Catman Chief, this question is actually not difficult to understand. Maybe they really didn't notice it."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly and responded: "Or, they have already noticed it, but it doesn't mean they will take action. After all, this place is far away from their territory."

"Although they have enough ability, as long as their interests are not touched and they are not threatened, they will naturally not act."

"The gods are gone, and now is not the Sun Era and the Silver Moon Era. Everything is different now."

Lei Xiao smiled helplessly and said, "Otherwise, if those forces standing at the top of the myriad races really have such a responsibility, they would have put aside their prejudices and united all forces to prepare for the catastrophe. How could they choose to be alone and regard the weak forces as a burden?"

After hearing Lei Xiao's words, Loris and Sina also nodded in agreement.

His Majesty the Human Race is right. The myriad races did go through a glorious period of time together, but now the gods are gone, and the blank era is full of mysteries. Everything is different now.

The whole world seems to be shrouded in a deep fog and may fall into the abyss at any time, but no one knows the real root cause.

For a moment, the atmosphere around became extremely dull again. Everyone was silent and sighed in their hearts.

"Everyone, fortunately we still have a chance to change all this, and this is what I have been doing all along."

Lei Xiao's tenacious and powerful voice sounded again, reaching the ears of everyone present: "At least we can still walk side by side, we have not given up hope, as long as we are still standing here, holding each other's hands, hope will never be annihilated."

As Lei Xiao's voice fell, everyone nodded and became excited again.

Even the strong men of the Broken Valley Alliance, such as Old Gary, cast respectful eyes. At the beginning, when they realized that it was this young human emperor who was in control of the overall situation, they were secretly surprised. After all, the weakness of the human race is well known, and it is even far from the ability to set foot in the outside world.

And now it seems that the human race is no longer what it used to be, and this young human emperor is also standing at the top of the crowd as expected by everyone.

With this human emperor in front, maybe they can really succeed in revenge, even if they face the demons in the shadows and the lich who defeated them once.

"Your Majesty, look, Fleming has cracked part of the barrier!"

Soon, Joniel's excited voice sounded and reached Lei Xiao's ears: "We can leave here!"

"There is no time to lose, let's act immediately."

Hearing the voice, Lei Xiao nodded to the three leaders, and then continued to rush forward to the front of the passage under the guidance of Old Gary and other strong men of the Broken Valley Alliance.

Soon, with the sudden enlightenment in front of them, the surroundings were filled with thick black fog again, and Lei Xiao and his party had returned to the ground again.

Not far away, the giant white city of the lich was still looming, which undoubtedly meant that we were not far from the place where the sudden change just happened.

"Your Majesty, everyone has regrouped. Only some of the seriously injured warriors have been left in the hidden place of the dungeon for treatment."

Loris nodded to Lei Xiao and reported.

"Your Majesty, we are also ready and are ready to be dispatched by your Majesty at any time."

Old Gary also stepped forward and handed over the command to Lei Xiao.

"I understand. Then please be prepared. Next, we will continue to break the absolute defense barrier of the opponent's main city."

Lei Xiao held Rolandel tightly, his voice sonorous and powerful.

In the previous fierce battle in the dungeon, although some of our warriors were injured or killed, due to the addition of Old Gary and others, our strength has increased by a lot, which will make our pace of advancement smoother.

However, as soon as Lei Xiao's voice fell, dense rain of arrows suddenly covered from all directions, accompanied by overwhelming bone spears and other necromancy spells, setting off waves of murderous winds.

Although we have supported the absolute defense barrier in the first time through Xiao Jie's secret method, and the energy supply is sufficient to avoid immediate fatal attacks, the dense arrows and spells whistling overhead still startled everyone.

"What's going on? Our position is clearly beyond the range of the opponent's main city. Did the opponent leave the city?"

Xi Na frowned, her fair face full of awe.

"I'm afraid it's not that the opponent has left the city. Look around carefully."

Lei Xiao directed more of our strong men to supply energy to the barrier while pointing to the depths of the black fog.

Through the direction of Lei Xiao's finger, everyone noticed that there were dense white figures in the depths of the fog, and a strong sense of hostility was coming towards them.

I saw that all around our army, there were dense armies of undead, and they were still advancing towards our position.

Compared with our army formation of nearly two legions, the enemy's number is probably at least ten times ours, and they have surrounded us.

"Lord, judging from the aura, there are at least 20 or more fourth-level undead legions on the opposite side."

After concentrating for a while, Xiao Jing, who has superb perception, reported to Lei Xiao: "Moreover, there are still a steady stream of undead armies rapidly approaching this direction, and there are dozens of legions."

"That's right, judging from the footsteps, there are about a million people quickly surrounding us here."

Loris lay on the ground and listened for a moment, then stood up and confirmed.

"Have the undead armies in other skeleton fortresses arrived so quickly? It seems that the speed of their actions is faster than we expected."

Xina crossed her arms and frowned more tightly, saying, "It's really like one wave has just subsided, and another wave has risen."

"Not only did the speed of their actions exceed our expectations, but we also wasted too much time in the dungeon."

After observing the undead army that was quickly surrounding them, Lei Xiao took a deep breath slowly.

Xina was right, the problems did come one after another.

And now, facing the undead army that surrounded them, we are undoubtedly in a dilemma again.

Our strength is only two fifth-level legions, and the combat power can only be equal to the 20 fourth-level undead legions that are currently surrounding us.

In this case, even if we try our best to wipe out these 20 undead legions, we will not be able to attack the city again, let alone the other undead legions that will be surrounding us later.

Just as Lei Xiao was thinking about what to do next, a lich with a withered face covered with black magic patterns appeared on the towering wall of the undead main city, looking down at our surrounded party from a high position. It was the lich leader from before.

On the face of the lich leader, which looked like a mummy, there was a trace of disdain and contempt, and the grim voice resounded through the world.

"Human Emperor, I didn't expect you to escape from the underground city. This is really surprising to me, but that's all. You will definitely die today!"

After saying this, the blood-red eyes of the lich leader fell on Old Gary and other strong men of the Broken Valley Alliance again, and his voice became more murderous.

"You bastards are really lingering. You actually choose to continue to compete with me in such a ridiculous way. It's really disgusting and ridiculous."

"Do you think you can really shake me? I was able to wipe you all out once and destroy you all. Today I can wipe you out again for the second time!"

After saying this, the lich leader waved his dry arm and ordered the undead army under the city: "Kill these ants who overestimate their own strength!"

As the lich leader's grim voice fell, the murderous intent around us surged, and countless fierce attacks cut through the sky and roared again from all directions. (End of this chapter)
