Chapter 457 The Lost Ruins

Coming to the mottled magic furnace, Lei Xiao nodded in satisfaction after a careful inspection.

This huge metal furnace, which is almost as large as a truck, has not suffered any damage.

Under the light of the light spar, the whole body of the magic furnace exudes a jet-black matte metal luster, which makes a vicissitudes of life and simplicity come to the face immediately.

On the pitch-black surface of the magic furnace, there are a lot of strange magic lines engraved, and many strange lines with faint fluorescent lights are intertwined, like a deep maze, forming a large number of obtuse angle structures.

"I seem to have seen this kind of magic line somewhere before."

While rubbing his chin, Lei Xiao pondered and nodded.

After contemplating for a moment, Lei Xiao suddenly realized.

With a sudden movement of his mind, a large, crystal-clear crystal stone, one meter square, appeared next to the giant furnace.

"This enchantment crystal of an unknown race that stores an unknown magic enchantment was also found in another lair in the old mining area of ​​Songlin City, where Su Ru and others dug obsidian and black magic crystals. Only Only the strong of the corresponding race can activate the magic enchantment stored in it."

Lei Xiao muttered to himself while comparing the enchantment crystal with the magic pattern on the giant furnace.

"The magic pattern structure between the two is almost exactly the same, and the location where the two were discovered is within the scope of the old mining area of ​​Songlin City. From this, it is not difficult to judge the race of this enchantment crystal. , which is also the dwarves."

"It seems that I have solved another little mystery."

Lei Xiao smiled faintly, put away the enchantment crystal, and refocused his gaze on the giant metal furnace in front of him.

After some further inspection, Lei Xiao found out.

Although this magic furnace can open the attribute interface, except for the name [Immortal Furnace], there is only "???" displayed below.

"Sure enough, you still can't find clues from the notes?"

After closing the attribute bar, Lei Xiao looked at the huge monster in front of him, frowning and continued to observe.

"Among the ruins of this castle, only this object has been preserved intact, while the other magical melting furnaces around them have varying degrees of damage, and most of them have traces of corrosion."

"It is not difficult to see from this that this [Immortal Furnace] is very different from its appearance, texture, and huge size. It belongs to the existence that stands out from the crowd. It is the best and most special in this former dwarf city. magic furnace."

"So, what is the purpose of the mysterious organization trying so hard to find this thing?"

A pensive look appeared on Lei Xiao's face.

"Is it for forging high-level equipment? After all, this magic furnace comes from the dwarves who are the best at forging."

"No, it's highly unlikely."

Lei Xiao immediately denied his thoughts and shook his head slightly.

"In addition to the blacksmith's own strength and technology, although an excellent magic furnace can improve the success rate and quality of forging equipment to a considerable extent, there is a huge limitation in it."

"According to the information I learned from Fang Hai before, the magic furnaces of different races correspond to their respective melting magic circles and forging magic circles."

"Although the methods of use are similar, there are often huge differences in the mastery of the fire. This undoubtedly means that blindly using the magic furnace of other races may not be able to achieve satisfactory results."

Lei Xiao murmured to himself while slowly pacing around the metal furnace.

"It can be seen from this that the mysterious organization has worked so hard and sent such a strong lineup to find this [Immortal Forge], it is definitely not for forging equipment!"

"So back to the question just now, what exactly does the other party want to do?"

"Will it be related to the other party's previous series of actions? After all, this dwarf city was also destroyed in the blank era three thousand years ago."

Just when Lei Xiao frowned and thought of this, a gust of wind swept past his eyes.

The five people including Hu Zhang, Hong Ye who were chasing after him, and Ye Cang and Chao Yan, who were ambushing outside the cave before, landed in front of him one after another.

"I have seen the lord!"

All the subordinates saluted together and lowered their heads in front of Lei Xiao.

"Don't be too polite, what's the situation outside?"

Lei Xiao waved his hand slightly, then asked.

"My lord, with the help of Senior Hu Zhang and Senior Hong Ye, all the strong men from the mysterious organization who escaped were intercepted by the subordinates and others except for No. 7 black-robed man and No. 23 black-robed man kill."

I saw Ye Cang stepping forward, patting his chest and saluting: "However, when the other party escaped from the cave in a panic, No. 135 and No. 203 black-robed men who were guarding the door immediately escaped using teleportation magic scrolls, so In total, four people managed to escape the scene."

After Ye Cang finished speaking, all the subordinates, including Nan Xing Nanyue who had just rushed over, knelt down on one knee again, and said in unison to Lei Xiao: "The subordinates did not wipe out the opponent completely, and they failed the Lord Lord's expectations. Please also ask the Lord Your Excellency will punish you!"

"Get up, everyone, you have performed very well today."

Lei Xiao helped all the subordinates up one by one, then smiled and said: "This time, the opponent dispatched a total of 13 experts, including 2 fifth-tier experts, 3 fourth-tier experts, and 7 third-tier peak experts. and a Tier 3 senior expert."

"And we killed one fifth-tier powerhouse, two fourth-tier powerhouses, and six third-tier peak powerhouses with almost no loss. This is already a very proud record."

Lei Xiao patted Ye Cang's generous shoulder lightly, nodded and said: "The most important thing is that our goal this time has been perfectly achieved, that is, not only took the magic furnace from the hands of the mysterious organization, but also made the mysterious The organization's important plans fell through again."

"These cruel guys who wantonly killed and despised the lords of other worlds have been punished by me for the first time, but this is by no means the last time."

"They look down on us, the alien lords who came suddenly, and they treat us like ants and step on them at will, so I just want to hit them in the face hard."

Lei Xiao glanced over the subordinates with a rather sharp gaze, and continued to speak: "Among the 4 escaped, needless to say the 3 insignificant mysterious organization powerhouses, let No. 7 black-robed man once again Escaping, for us, might not be a good thing."

"Huh? Why is it a good thing?"

Chaoyan blinked her big shiny eyes, and said with a puzzled expression.

"My lord, this subordinate understands what you mean."

Ye Cang pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and thoughtfully said: "The No. 7 black-robed man has already become your defeat twice, so he must be somewhat afraid of you, and you claim to be cold A member of the Flame Royal Family."

"Unless we can find our whereabouts, the other party will naturally focus on the Lengyan royal family and start investigating."

"In this way, it is undoubtedly equivalent to completely diverting the other party's attention, allowing the territory to have a certain amount of time to develop again."

In Ye Cang's lens, a cold light flashed: "And if he is killed, the mysterious organization will definitely send a new fifth-level powerhouse to sit in the Lengyan branch."

"At that time, how the new fifth-order powerhouse will act is beyond our estimation. Once the successor is stronger, it will not be conducive to the next action."

"Therefore, it's better to take advantage of the period when the other party is investigating the Lengyan royal family, and the territory will continue to develop insignificantly, and continue to strengthen its own strength."

Ye Cang smiled gracefully, and concluded: "At that time, even if there are new powerful fifth-level experts coming to support you, Lord Lord, you will be able to deal with it more easily."

"That's right."

Lei Xiao nodded and said affirmatively: "During this period of time, we still have two things to do, one is to find a way to subdue Ariel, who is Leng Yan's fifth princess, as soon as possible, and the other is to continue to strengthen the territory and The strength of each territory, after all, the strengthening of city defense, training and conscription in various places are all proceeding in an orderly manner."

"As expected of the lord!"

Chao Yan nodded her head thoughtfully, and said in confusion again: "My lord, there is still one thing I don't know about my subordinates. Now we can confirm that one of the three princes who are fighting for the throne in the capital has secretly joined into the camp of the mysterious organization."

"If the mysterious organization goes all out to help the other party seize the throne, wouldn't we be facing the mysterious organization and the Lengyan royal family at the same time, these two extremely powerful forces?"

Speaking of this, Chao Yan couldn't help but frowned and said: "This is definitely not a good thing."

"I didn't expect you, girl, to think of this level."

Lei Xiao put his hands behind his back, walked slowly, raised his eyebrows and said: "Yes, this is indeed the worst case, but through chatting with Bert, Jubai, and Ed, we I have already learned about the general situation of the battle for the king's capital."

"That is, in the royal capital, only the eldest prince faction has a fifth-level strongman nicknamed [White Knight] who is loyal to him, while the other fifth-level strongman who is the chief kingdom general is still the same. Allegiance to the old king, the two already belong to two completely different forces."

"At this stage, although I am still not sure which prince has thrown himself into the embrace of the mysterious organization, even if the eldest prince has the loyalty of a fifth-order powerhouse and is a member of the mysterious organization, if he wants to completely control the Lengyan royal family , will also conflict with another fifth-order powerhouse."

"As a result, the struggle between the two is still inevitable, and one side will inevitably suffer serious damage."

Reaching this point, Lei Xiao smiled lightly and said, "Do you understand now?"

"I fully understand. No wonder the mysterious organization still sits and watches the three princes come and go. It turns out that they have some scruples!"

While the slender eyelashes flickered, on the delicate face of the face, there was a look of sudden enlightenment.

"Okay, let's continue to clean the battlefield, and see if we can find other items here."

Lei Xiao waved his hand and nodded to the subordinates beside him.

Under Lei Xiao's command, the subordinates of the main force were immediately divided into several small teams, and began to clean the battlefield and explore around in the ruins.

And Nanxing Nanyue went to the hidden place outside the entrance of the cave to prevent anyone from disturbing her.

Not long after, accompanied by the sound of glass shattering from the huge metal furnace next to it, Hong Ye's crisp voice came over: "My lord, the anti-space magic on the magic furnace has been released."

"very good."

Lei Xiao came to the huge metal furnace, and conveniently put the [Immortal Furnace] into his space bracelet.

"Hong Ye, walk with me."

After that, Lei Xiao started to walk among the ruins of the castle, followed by the dragon woman.

Stepping on the somewhat rough ground, Lei Xiao looked at the devastated walls and ruins all around him, and he couldn't help but ponder on his face.

Lei Xiao looked around carefully first, then frowned at the dragon woman beside him and said, "Hong Ye, have you noticed anything strange?"

"Strange thing?"

Hong Ye's fair and translucent face was full of puzzlement, and he bowed and asked, "My lord, what are you referring to?"

"In this huge dwarf ruins, there is not even a dwarf corpse."

Lei Xiao took a breath, and said slowly with a dignified expression: "From the scene I saw in the illusion before the beginning, it can be clearly inferred that this place was obviously a very prosperous city three thousand years ago, but after being destroyed, unexpectedly There is not even a single body left, which is obviously unreasonable."

"It turned out to be this matter."

Hong Ye smiled. Judging from his expression, he obviously knew something.

I saw Hong Ye nodded to Lei Xiao, and began to explain: "My lord, you may not know something, as far as my subordinates know, among all the ancient ruins from the blank era, no matter what race they are, there is indeed no The existence of ancient corpses."

"This point, like the misplaced things mentioned before, is also one of the mysterious effects caused by the blank era, or it is more appropriate to call it an unsolved mystery."

Hong Ye looked solemn, and continued: "These relics from the blank era are also called lost relics. The meaning of the word "lost" naturally refers to these ancient relics that disappeared collectively without knowing why. dead body. "

"A lost ruin? I didn't expect such incredible things to exist in this world."

Surprised, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.

Thinking about it carefully, among the many blank age relics that have been explored, except for the entire petrified winged human barrier area.

Whether it is the ruins of the light elves next to Shen Banxia's territory, or the ruins of the unknown race of the [Eternal Night Magic Box] found next to the temple of the Titans.

Even the ancient ship as a misplaced thing, and the remains of an ancient battlefield with nothing, it is true that no ancient corpse of any race has ever been found.

"I originally thought that the strange and mysterious phenomenon of misplaced objects was incredible enough, but compared with misplaced objects, these corpses that disappeared collectively are undoubtedly even more strange."

The bewildered expression on Lei Xiao's face became more intense, and he muttered to himself.

"What happened in that mysterious and unpredictable blank age back then to cause such a puzzling situation?"
