Chapter 1201: Deep in the Palace

Feeling the increasingly strong stench, Lei Xiao held Rolandel tightly and looked at the hall that was not far away.

The huge hall was as big as four Lion Castles. It was so huge that it stood in front of the group like an unshakable giant peak.

What was even more suffocating was that the giant peak was completely covered with shocking dark and bloody colors, and its original appearance could not be seen at all.

Countless dark red roots were crawling all over the surface of the hall. They looked densely packed, just like countless giant earthworms stacked on top of each other, wriggling their slender bodies wantonly.

There were even many slender dark red roots extending from the edges of the building, twisting wildly in the air, exuding a weird and rhythmic rhythm.

"This is simply the arrival of President Ke."

Lei Xiao looked at the indescribable weird scene in front of him, and his palm holding the long sword became paler.

It must be said that this suffocating dark scene alone is enough to scare ordinary strong men away.

"I didn't expect that the most sacred prayer hall would become like this."

Lorenz's eyes were full of sorrow, and his skinny old body couldn't stop trembling.

As the guardian of the Temple of Light, this was undoubtedly the scene he least wanted to see.

What's more, this place, which was once the core of human hope and carried countless prayers and holiness, has become a dark hotbed that attempts to destroy everything. It is simply a great irony and sadness.

"Don't worry, old man, we will put an end to all this, let the dawn come here, and spread to the entire human world."

Lei Xiao gently patted the old bishop's trembling thin shoulders, and said resolutely: "We have no way to retreat. We can only tear open the curtain of darkness with all our strength to see a ray of dawn."

After that, Lei Xiao waved his hand and continued: "Everything ahead is unknown, so be careful."

After hearing Lei Xiao's instructions, everyone did not hesitate at all, and continued to fly towards the entrance of the hall.

On the way, everyone did not encounter any magic traps until they arrived at the main entrance of the hall.

The giant door at the entrance of the hall was not closed, but was completely open, as if it was silently welcoming Lei Xiao and his party.

However, the dense dark red roots on the giant door and the interior space covered with dark red showed that the end of this road was obviously not a hospitable host.

"Human prince, the bloody smell here is so strong."

Louise frowned, a rare solemnity appeared on her face, and she moved closer to Lei Xiao involuntarily, saying: "This lady can clearly sense that there are many different smells, mixed with disgusting inexplicable forbidden power, which is simply outrageous."

"Every dark red root here is the product of the forbidden power mixed with different smells."

After saying that, Louise suddenly felt nauseous and began to retch. As a vampire, she obviously has a more sensitive sense of smell than others.

Everyone present already knows about Louise's extraordinary identity. Seeing that the true ancestor of the vampire clan has such an expression, whether it is Gray Old Man or Joniel, they can't help but expose the veins on their foreheads while looking at each other.

In the past hundred years, they naturally knew about the large number of disappearances in the Kingdom of Grimm. Although they had investigated many times, they all ended in failure under the strong interference of the Temple of Light.

After all, the Kingdom of Grimm was deeply influenced by the Temple of Light and was under the protection of the Temple of Light.

According to the Temple of Light itself, since they are investigating with all their strength, it is obviously a bit of a dog catching a rat if the Mercenary Guild and the Alchemist Guild forcefully participate.

And now, connecting everything together, the source of these events is naturally self-evident.

"Let's keep moving forward. Even if this place becomes a scorched earth, there will be new buds breaking out of the ground and blooming in the sun. What we have to do is to break through the obstructing clouds and welcome the arrival of the scorching sun."

Lei Xiao also quickly connected everything together and patted Louise's shoulder gently.

Lei Xiao clearly understood that, as he had said before, the things before the arrival of these lords were over, and he naturally could not participate.

Now, he not only shoulders his own life, but also the lives of nearly 4,000 subordinates, including Ariel, and more loyal soldiers and followers, as well as the lords of the Warrior God Group.

For himself, for the territory, and for the homes and loved ones of his subordinates, he must go all out, and there is no way back.

As for saving the human world, it is just a matter of convenience, no big deal.

"Your Highness is right, that mysterious existence must die."

There seemed to be a raging fire burning in the old eyes of the gray old man, and he nodded heavily.

After that, the group entered the gate of the temple and moved forward in the dark and lifeless hall.

As far as the sight can be seen, except for the rows of giant stone pillars covered with dark red roots, there is only the pungent smell of fishy smell lingering around everyone.

Lei Xiao's steps are steady, stepping on the dark red sticky floor tiles, looking around.

As the group went deeper, the slender dark red roots became thicker and the faint blood-red light on them became more dazzling. The blood-red light that flickered everywhere in the darkness even dimmed our guide light ball.

"Sir, we are getting closer and closer to the "source" of these dark red roots."

Bing Lao's sharp eyes were also scanning around, and he frowned at Lei Xiao and said, "And the progress of the other party's plan is also accelerating rapidly. Some of these dark red roots have begun to be eager to try us. "

After Bing Lao finished speaking, Lei Xiao immediately shifted his gaze to the nearest dark red root.

This root was so thick that it was difficult to wrap his arms around it. It was indeed following our group. In other directions around, there were many thick roots of the same size that were eager to try, exuding a bloodthirsty and greedy breath, obviously treating us as nutrients.

Seeing this scene, not only Lei Xiao, but also Hui Lao and others frowned more and more.

Before this, everyone had tried it. These dark red roots could not be destroyed even by the attacks of sixth-level strongmen, and they would recover almost instantly.

Once that mysterious existence really began to absorb nutrients, I am afraid that before we see it, If we are not in the same direction, we will be tied up tightly and drowned in these countless weird things that are constantly wriggling.

Thinking of this, the speed of the crowd has reached the extreme, and they continue to fly towards the depths of the hall.

Darkness, blood, roots, corridors, halls, statues, halls... shocking and mottled scenes passed by the sight of the group one after another,

Accompanied by the sound of the people's rapid speed, although this once sacred hall has been completely changed, under the guidance of the old bishop, everyone still follows the shortest route and continues to move towards the destination.

"Please be careful, sir, the deepest prayer hall is within reach, and there must be the location of the mysterious existence."

After passing through a long and hidden secret passage, Lei Xiao's eyes just opened up, and Lorenz's old voice rang in his ears: "At the end of the corner ahead is a very wide hall, which is the last door to the prayer hall! "

"So, there are probably a lot of obstacles there?"

Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes and said to everyone: "Be alert, no matter what appears ahead, it can't stop us. "

Hearing the voice, our strong men were surrounded by a vast aura and nodded heavily.

Just as the old bishop said, when the group turned around a corridor, an area with a wide view came into everyone's sight.

But when everyone's eyes were focused on the center of the area, they couldn't help but show surprise.

There was indeed a giant door there, but the door itself and the surrounding walls were already riddled with holes, and the ground was covered with gravel and dust, looking messy.

I saw countless giant dark red branches that had already broken through the door and the wall, standing on the wall like countless deer antlers, like an extremely lush dark red forest.

On the edge of the dark red branches, bright red new buds were growing rapidly.

And it can be clearly seen that these dark red branches are translucent, and dark red energy is constantly flowing in them, transporting to the edge, which looks almost suffocating.

"Is this part of the dark red root mother body? "

Seeing this, Louise's fair face was full of surprise, and she blurted out: "Has the other party begun to absorb nutrients?"

"Don't forget that we are closest to the root position. If the other party has begun to absorb nutrients, we must be the first to be attacked by the dark red roots."

Lei Xiao pondered for a moment, and then denied: "This should be just a precursor to absorbing nutrients."

"Your Highness is right. At present, the energy flow of these branches is extremely limited. They must still be in the growth stage and have not yet reached the point of controlling everything."

Gray Old Man frowned and sensed for a moment, and agreed: "But if it reaches the stage of flowering and fruiting, I am afraid that nightmares and destruction will officially begin."

"I agree, too. After all, those dark maniacs regard themselves as the fruits of this evil tree."

Yoniel's old face was full of disgust, and he snorted: "What a bloodthirsty group of guys."

"If I attack these branches, can we further delay the other party's plan? "

Louise's eyes lit up, and she blurted out again.

"From the perspective of energy fluctuations, this is only a small part of the branches. The real "root" is not here. Don't forget that the roots before could not be eliminated, and these branches are probably the same. "

Bing Lao shook his head and responded: "Besides, even if we do our best to break up these branches, we can't hurt the "root" at all, and it will only waste our energy in vain. "

"That's right, only by defeating the mysterious existence that is the culprit can we completely end all this. "

Lei Xiao's eyes fell on the giant door, and he nodded to everyone and said: "The other party is curled up behind the door. It's time to eradicate this source of evil. "

However, as soon as Lei Xiao's voice fell, hundreds of golden summoning arrays with great momentum appeared again out of thin air, and the burly figures of a large number of holy light sword holders and holy light chanters soon appeared around everyone.

For a moment, the sacred golden light and the deep blood-red strange light shone in this vast space, and a dangerous and sharp smell swept over.

For such a scene, everyone expected it. Seeing that no more powerful Holy Light Judge appeared, Lei Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, and then waved his hand, and 8 dark guardians and 18 metal dragons emerged.

This is not over yet. Lei Xiao summoned 50 earth guardians and sky guardians in one breath, formed a battle formation, and launched an offensive against the surrounding enemies.

And Joniel also made the same move. Not only did he wave his robe and summon 10 silver humanoid fifth-level alchemical puppets that had appeared before, but he also summoned hundreds of fourth-level copper alchemical puppets in one breath, and also began to fight against the opponent's golem puppets.

After the summoning was completed, the old alchemist couldn't help but cast an awkward smile to Lei Xiao.

Before this, seeing Lei Xiao summon 20 alchemy puppet dragons in one breath, Joniel's eyes almost popped out.

After all, the entire Alchemist Guild can only take out 20 or so fifth-level alchemy puppets, and 10 of them are in a state of damage that cannot be repaired temporarily due to the scarcity of materials, and have been unusable for a long time.

As for the fourth-level alchemy puppets, they can take out a lot, but compared with the fifth-level alchemy puppets, they are undoubtedly stretched.

It is not difficult to see from this that Lei Xiao's big move has obviously surpassed the entire Alchemist Guild to some extent.

Noticing the awkward smile of the old alchemist, Lei Xiao also smiled back and didn't take it to heart.

As long as he can get through this difficult time, it won't take long for him to take the alchemy technology and production capacity of the human world to a whole new level.

While Lei Xiao and Jonil responded immediately, Bing Lao and Hui Lao also showed their abilities, summoning the previous fifth-level golem puppets and fifth-level phantoms, and shot directly at the summoned opponents.

Everyone knew clearly that the decisive battle was imminent, and naturally they would not let these summons slow down our pace.

"Charge into the hall!"

Then, Lei Xiao held the long sword horizontally, and flew directly towards the giant door with thousands of holes.

When they got close, the group easily smashed the shaky door.

With countless broken stones from the broken door falling to the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust, the mysterious hall with hidden roots finally appeared in front of everyone.
