Chapter 940 Unexpected Confinement

Galloping along the gorgeously decorated castle corridor, Lei Xiao noticed.

Just as the elders such as Keane and Ivan said, the interior of this castle is indeed extremely complicated, like a maze that can change at any time.

The spacious corridor I just walked through looked back, but it had already turned into a thick wall, or a spiral staircase, which suddenly broke off halfway, blocking the road ahead.

However, Lei Xiao and his team quickly discovered the clues.

The reason for all this is not because this castle has the ability to transform, but because a rather subtle illusion has been imposed here.

The illusion and the structure of the castle itself complement each other, and the two are both true and false, which creates the illusion of unpredictable changes in the owner's castle.

"This well-designed castle illusion is enough to make ordinary fifth-level powerhouses sink into it, and it can easily make Keen and others with fourth-level strength dizzy, but it doesn't work for me."

Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows, turned his head to look at Xiao Huan who was sitting on his shoulder dangling his legs.

With the [Stone of God] opening the way, Lei Xiao and his party will naturally not be affected by the illusion, and soon they will see the blue sky through the clouds and mist, tearing away the true face of the Patriarch's castle.

The real structure of the castle is actually not complicated, on the contrary, it is extremely simple, even simpler and clearer than other city lord mansions that Lei Xiao has seen.

In many parts of the castle, except for the long or short corridors, there are mostly empty halls one after another.

"The castle itself is like a frame, and the illusion is the blood and flesh in it? In this way, the owner's castle that others see is changing."

"I have to say, this is really a brain-opening design."

As Lei Xiao thought about it, he continued to explore in the empty castle.

During this process, Han Shui's furious cursing never stopped, but Lei Xiao continued to ignore it, and discovered another unexpected thing.

That is because the entire castle is covered with a subtle illusion, so that Xiao Huan can only temporarily remove the influence of the illusion, but cannot also use the illusion to deter the opponent.

At least not until Xiao Huan fully understands this illusion.

In addition, Lei Xiao and his team also discovered many other deadly traps, including not only powerful spells and puppet soldiers summoning circles, but also physical facilities such as exquisitely designed back arrows and suddenly falling floors.

It is no exaggeration to say that these endless deadly traps are enough to easily destroy an elite army that rushed in blindly, without even leaving a trace.

But for Lei Xiao, it was not a trouble.

Under the escort of three fifth-tier powerhouses, Lei Xiao walked forward with almost no obstacles, and soon came to a thick metal door.

"My lord, this must be the hiding place of Han Shui."

Jiang Li bowed to Lei Xiao, stroked his chest, and reported respectfully: "Although the opponent designed the magic circuit quite concealed, after inspection by his subordinates, most of the magic circles are connected here, so the answer is self-evident. Metaphor."

"In other words, is this the control center of the entire castle? Then it can't be wrong."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly, nodded to Jiang Li and Hong Ye, and ordered: "Open it."

As soon as Lei Xiao's voice fell, before the two fifth-level magic masters under his command could make a move, the door suddenly opened in front of the group of people, as if they were welcoming Lei Xiao and his group.

With the thick metal double doors slowly opening to both sides, the scene inside the door came into Lei Xiao's eyes.

This is a magnificent and luxurious castle hall, under the reflection of the dazzling crystal fringed chandeliers, it is filled with noble golden tones and elegant white tones.

The main component of the golden tone comes from a large number of gorgeous textures such as the hollowed-out scroll pattern, scopolamine leaf decoration, and scallop flower decoration embedded on the wall. These pure gold decorations are undoubtedly an absolute symbol of status and wealth.

The elegant white tone mainly comes from the two rows of towering giant stone pillars standing on the left and right sides of the hall.

The surfaces of these towering stone pillars are all engraved with exquisite stone carvings. There are all kinds of extravagant scenes such as killing battlefields, high mountains, wine ponds and meat forests.

The lifelike scene seems to jump out of the sculpture in the next second, which undoubtedly shows that everything is from the hands of famous craftsmen, and it perfectly demonstrates the taste and style of the owner.

In the middle part of the hall, a red luxurious carpet exuding magical fluorescence runs through it, extending from the gate to the golden throne on the high platform at the end.

"Such gorgeous decorations are almost comparable to the royal family."

Seeing this scene, Ariel beside Lei Xiao blinked her starry eyes and couldn't help but exclaim.

"After all, it is the Shanglu family, one of the three giants, and all this is reasonable."

Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, and his gaze began to slowly move up towards the throne at the end of the hall.

On the left and right sides of the throne, stood two golden stags with their front legs raised. The antlers spread out like tree roots, which looked full of strength and deterrence.

And on the throne, sat a middle-aged man with a ferocious face.

He was wearing a set of light gold and milky white thick knight armor, and a crimson velvet cloak that symbolized his status. In the Kingdom of Cold Flame, except for members of the royal family, only the three grand dukes were eligible to wear it.

On the chest of the middle-aged man's armor, in addition to the engraved stag family coat of arms, there is also a long golden bar and eight golden balls engraved on it. This is the only noble symbol of the Lengyan Kingdom, which further proves that The identity of the young man is none other than Hanshui, the current head of the Shanglu family!

Lei Xiao shifted his gaze and noticed further.

Around the cold water, there is a row of small magic facilities like a podium. It seems that those are the magic consoles that control many castle organs.

In addition, Lei Xiao can also vaguely detect it.

On the high platform where Hanshui is located, there are sometimes faint magical streamers flashing around, which undoubtedly means that it is covered with a solid defensive barrier.

"You despicable people from another world, Princess Ariel, I never thought you would actually be able to come before the head of this family."

The gloomy words sounded, eyes filled with cold murderous intent stared at Lei Xiao and Ariel, and said solemnly: "But don't think that you have already won, the dead end has just begun, and the Patriarch will welcome you with death! "

"Don't be ashamed there, your nonsense along the way made my ears callous."

Surrounded by his subordinates, Lei Xiao said indifferently: "Han Shui, are you going to step down from the throne and catch him without a fight? Or should I go up and drag you down?"

"He is really an extremely arrogant alien bastard."

Han Shui's eyes became more gloomy, and he said coldly: "My Patriarch is here, and if you want to pull this Patriarch from the throne, I'm afraid you don't have the ability!"

While Han Shui was speaking, Lei Xiao and his subordinates had already stepped into the hall of this magnificent castle.

Lei Xiao clearly understood that this hall was Hanshui's last bastion, and it was bound to be full of murderous threats.

But he has come to this point, and he has no way to turn back. Even if there is a sea of ​​swords and flames ahead, he still has to lead his subordinates to make a dash.

"Just like what I said at the beginning, only Han Shui and I can leave this Lion Heart City this time."

After stepping into the hall, Lei Xiao nodded to his subordinates without hesitation.

If it is possible to preemptively take down Hanshui with a thunderbolt, that is naturally the safest way.

After receiving Lei Xiao's order, the knotweed and Hong Ye in the front row of the team immediately turned into a phantom, attacking the throne where Han Shui was with a stormy momentum.

At the same time, Jiang Li also activated the space tearing, trying to break the defensive barrier around the cold water. As for Ariel and Lian, they were full of awe, ready to deal with emergencies at any time.

"Despicable outsider, my Patriarch said just now that if you want to pull this Patriarch from the throne, I'm afraid you don't have the ability!"

Facing the siege of our three fifth-tier powerhouses, there was no wave on Hanshui Senran's face, and he said coldly: "Don't forget, this is the territory of the Patriarch!"

As soon as Han Shui's voice fell, the knotweed holding the dragon-slaying sword and the red night with crimson claws were already like two giant peaks, one left and one right covering the head and face of Han Shui, attacking Han Shui.

The buzzing sound of the giant blade cutting through the air and the whistling sound of the sharp claws stirring the air followed one after another, and they smashed hard at the absolute defensive barrier covering the cold water.

boom!

There was only a loud bang, and while the whole hall was trembling, gusts of wind were generated by energy collisions, making it difficult for Lei Xiao and others behind to open their eyes.

This is not over yet, after the attack by the knotweed and the red night, the violent space tearing of the gracilaria followed, causing another violent wave of energy.

When the wind gradually eased, Lei Xiao noticed.

Under the joint attack of our three fifth-tier powerhouses, the absolute defensive barrier protecting Hanshui was unscathed, not even a single crack appeared.

"Really a tough guy."

Seeing that our attack had no effect, Lei Xiao frowned slightly.

"Hahaha, the scum of the alien world who is overwhelmed!"

Han Shui sat leisurely on the throne, looked down at Lei Xiao and his party, and said with contempt: "Since the deployment of this absolute defensive barrier six hundred years ago, it has been strengthened and trained by eight fifth-level magic powerhouses." Maintenance can be said to be a fusion of hundreds of directors."

"In other words, not to mention the three fifth-tier powerhouses, even if five fifth-tier powerhouses attack together, it will not be able to do anything to the head of the family!"

In Han Shui's tone, there was suddenly a bit more fierceness and viciousness, and he said with murderous intent: "Next, let you intruders who are overwhelmed by your own capabilities, have a good look at the history of the Shanglu family for more than 600 years. The real bottom line!"

"Let's feel the unstoppable confinement of our Patriarch first!"

As soon as Han Shui's words fell, the originally open door suddenly closed.

Immediately afterwards, a powerful force descended from the sky and pressed down on Lei Xiao's tall and straight body.

Caught off guard, Lei Xiao intuited that his back was as if a mountain was pressing down on him, and he couldn't stand still at all, so he had to lean back and sit on the corner of the wall, which made him feel a lot more relaxed.

"Because it's not a fatal attack, the effect of "Star Guardian" didn't activate? "

Lei Xiao gritted his teeth and looked around, only to see Ariel and Lian beside him leaning against the corner of the wall, unable to straighten up due to the overwhelming and inexplicable force.

As for Jiang Li, Polygonum cuspidatum, and Hong Ye, the suppression they received was obviously more serious, and they all squatted down on the ground, unable to lift their waists at all.

"My lord, this is the Gravity Imprisonment Circle!"

Jiang Gracilaria, who was closest to Lei Xiao, was panting heavily, and tried his best to introduce: "From the perspective of overwhelming strength, its original builder is probably at least a fifth-order peak who has stepped into the sixth-order with one and a half feet. Only the Gravity Magister can do it!"

After finishing speaking, the solemnity on Jiang Li's fair face was beyond words.

Gravity-type powerhouses are rare, able to restrain one of the natural enemies of the space-type.

This hall has been completely covered by the gravity circle, and the door that was closed just now has also been covered by the anti-transportation magic prohibition, making it impossible to escape to the outside world.

This undoubtedly meant that his space magic completely lost its due effect.

After all, no matter which family is sent to the hall, it cannot escape the confinement of the gravity circle.

"Gravity Magister?"

Hearing Jiang Li's words, Lei Xiao's face also became more serious.

Strong magicians of the gravity system are extremely rare, comparable to the space system, so much so that I have never met them before.

But what is certain is that the strength of the gravity magic powerhouse is beyond doubt, as long as it is within the effective range of the spell, it is enough to crush all ordinary powerhouses of the same strength.

"Hehe, this is indeed a gravitational confinement circle called "Invisible Prison". "

Seeing that Lei Xiao and his party lost their ability to resist in an instant, Han Shui looked extremely proud, and said leisurely: "And the original builder is indeed a gravity system that has stepped into the sixth level with half a foot. Strong."

"I might as well tell you that this gravity expert is not from the human race, but from the mysterious winged human race."

"Back then, His Majesty the King of Heroes used to have some connections with a certain branch of the Winged Human Race. After obtaining the King's permission, the first patriarch of our Shanglu family spent a lot of money to ask the strong Winged Human Race to build this gravity confinement circle." .”

"This extremely powerful magic circle was enough to easily imprison five fifth-tier powerhouses at its peak. Although it has declined a bit now, it is still more than enough to imprison you few!"

When Han Shui said this, Lei Xiao pouted helplessly.

I remember that when I communicated with Wang Xi, the other party did mention the Winged Human Race. Even the place where the ancestors slept in the underground of Luolong City was built with the help of the strong Winged Human Race.

"Wang Xi, Wang Xi, you have done me a disservice now. If you didn't agree back then, wouldn't this confinement circle cease to exist?"

Lei Xiao just came here helplessly in his heart.

Han Shui's murderous voice rang out, "So, despicable guest from another world, are you ready to die now?"

As Han Shui's voice fell, hundreds of sharp ice spears exuding a piercing aura condensed into shape and floated above Lei Xiao's head.

All of a sudden, countless gunpoints pointed directly at Lei Xiao, making the scene suddenly fatal.
