Chapter 1560: The End of the Fierce Battle and Return
"You are just a tiny ant. Bluffing will not achieve any result!"
In the dangerous underground space, the eerie voice became even colder and more unscrupulously agitated: "All of you, turn into bait for fear!"
Along with the opponent's arrogant and contemptuous voices, those leaping earth dragons covered the sky and the sun. Their claws and fangs wrapped in energy were only one step away from our absolute defense barrier with many cracks!
For a moment, the parasitic earth dragons, whose foreheads were strangely gleaming with black crystals, had ferocious faces, all filled with contempt and disdain, and pointed their bloody mouths, which were constantly drooling, at every one of us, as if they were ready to kill.
Seeing this scene, Lila and Kayla's fair faces did not fluctuate, but their throats rolled and they swallowed saliva involuntarily.
You know, these earth dragons can bite through even the armor made by the dwarf forging masters in one bite. After being blessed by "Eclipse", their terrifying level has increased greatly. Even the most powerful energy barrier can hardly withstand the opponent's crazy offensive!
Once the absolute defense barrier is broken, we will undoubtedly be instantly submerged by the earth dragons and "eclipses" rushing in from the surroundings!
Just when the stone giant sisters were feeling discouraged, Lei Xiao, who was not far away, turned over his palm, and an ancient magic scroll emerged and was directly activated.
The moment Lei Xiao activated the scroll, an imperceptible wave of golden energy suddenly surged out.
Wherever the energy waves reached, no matter whether it was the earth dragons swooping down from mid-air or the earth dragons attacking madly on the ground, they all screamed as if they had been hit head-on by a heavy punch.
During this process, a large number of fifth-order earth dragons and even ordinary sixth-order earth dragons were caught off guard and the black crystals on their foreheads were shattered. Their heads and bodies covered with black scales were directly torn into pieces in mid-air, turning into black mud that emitted a foul smell all over the sky, and then scattered to the ground with a crackling sound.
Although the stronger parasitic earth dragons were not killed instantly, they fell to the ground with painful expressions on their faces. Their huge bodies kept twisting and rolling on the ground, and some even turned upside down and could not turn over, causing sharp and piercing screams to be heard one after another.
For a moment, the group of earth dragons that were full of murderous intent not long ago almost collapsed instantly, completely losing their previous ferocity and wantonness.
As for the "Eclipses" following behind, they collapsed at the first touch and exploded one after another, leaving only a pile of black muddy substance on the ground, which soon evaporated.
"What happened?!"
Seeing this, Lila and Keira were shocked and opened their eyes wide with expressions of disbelief.
In that moment just now, the pair of stone giant sisters only noticed that Lei Xiao was holding an object similar to a scroll in his hand, and then an unexpected scene suddenly happened.
Thinking back carefully, the sudden wave of unknown energy was indeed stirred up from the scroll, but they had never heard of a scroll that could cause damage to "Eclipse"!
What surprised and shocked them even more was that the effect of this scroll was simply terrifying!
In addition to being shocked, Lila and Keira's unbelievable faces also showed a hint of excitement after surviving a disaster. Although they didn't know what exactly happened, the human king did resolve the fatal crisis for our side once again with his own hands!
While the stone giant sisters were focusing on it, Lei Xiao's gaze fell on another golden barrier that had just appeared outside our absolute defense barrier.
The new golden barrier almost covered half of the underground space. It was precisely because of the suppression of this golden barrier that the parasitic earth dragons and "Eclipse" suffered sudden and severe damage.
At this point, the origin of the barrier is naturally self-evident. It is the scroll of [Eclipse Annihilation Array] that Lei Xiao obtained from Old Booker.
At the beginning, the main reason why Lei Xiao chatted with the other party for a few more words was to buy time to deploy the extinction formation.
After the battle in Guanwang City, Lei Xiao was already capable of quietly deploying this special barrier, and the extinction array scroll that was activated at the end was the core of the array.
Therefore, the moment the last scroll was activated, the entire extinction array was also activated at the same time.
"I just used up a total of 10 extinction array scrolls to expand the barrier to this extent. As for why I activated it at the last moment, it was naturally to allow more parasitic earth dragons and "Eclipse" to enter the range covered by the barrier."
Lei Xiao's eyes moved, commanding the strong men to beat the fallen dog while continuing to observe the surrounding scene.
As far as the sight went, even the group of half-step seventh-order earth dragons that had been showing their fangs and claws just now were unable to turn over for a moment and continued to howl wildly.
It must be said that the suppressing effect of the Extinction Array Scroll is even stronger than he had imagined. If it was placed on the land of Guanwang City, it would never be so effective.
This is not surprising. After all, the "Eclipse" on that land has been fighting against the Extinction Array for a long time and has developed resistance to it to a considerable extent. However, the "Eclipse" here has probably never seen the Extinction Array, so it is not surprising that this situation has occurred.
"Through Old Booker's introduction, I've learned that Eclipse does have a considerable amount of room for growth, and there may even be unexpected species with some special and terrifying abilities."
"Therefore, as the source of the disaster, it is by no means as simple as it appears on the surface. This is its truly terrifying aspect. Of course, there is also the 'Guixu' who controls everything."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly and continued to command the strong men to eliminate the enemies around them.
Under the effect of the Extinction Array, the strength of all the earth dragons, including those half-step seventh-level earth dragons, was greatly suppressed, which enabled us to quickly regain the initiative on the battlefield.
Accompanied by one earth-shaking energy collision sound after another, even though the parasitic earth dragons had thick skin and flesh, their energy barriers were still shattered one after another by the blast from a group of powerful warriors, and their black scales were sunken and even torn apart.
Although we were quickly tipping the scales towards victory, Lei Xiao's gaze became more solemn.
You know, the scrolls of the Extinction Array in his hand are extremely limited after all. There are only dozens of them left, which can't support a few battles at all. If he faces this situation more often, they will be exhausted soon.
After the contact in Guanwang City, although the strong men under his command learned the specific techniques from Old Booker, it would probably take a lot of time to fully display them and then seal them into simple and easy-to-deploy scrolls.
"We must speed up the production of the Scroll of Extinction. According to the time of the explosion of the magic veins and the number of abnormal "eclipses" that appeared, although the magic barrier is still in place, its effect is probably far less than before."
"In other words, we are getting closer to the time when the magic barrier will fail."
With this in mind, Lei Xiao's lightning and Xuan Ji's elemental bombs shot out together, accompanied by an earth-shattering explosion, directly blasting a still roaring half-step seventh-order earth dragon into pieces.
As for whether his use of the Extinction Array would be noticed by those "Erosion" seekers, Lei Xiao was not worried.
After all, this is deep underground in the miracle building, with the double barriers of the external defense barrier and the fortress's absolute defense barrier. It is different from the outside world just now. Even if those "Eclipse" destroyers have great magical powers, it will be difficult for them to reach here for a while.
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this, our strong men were advancing like a hot knife through butter, and soon wiped out most of those parasitic earth dragons, leaving only patches of muddy dirt still bubbling, which soon evaporated, and those ordinary "erosions" were instantly reduced to ashes when the extinction formation appeared.
All this happened in a matter of seconds, accompanied by dazzling magical lights that illuminated the entire underground space. It didn't take long before I had wiped out several times the number of parasitic earth dragons like chopping melons and vegetables.
"This is impossible! What on earth is that barrier that emits a disgusting smell?!"
In the shadows in the corner of the underground space, the deep, hoarse and eerie voice no longer had the recklessness and arrogance from before, and was only filled with tremors and hysteria.
"It looks like that's the end of it. I told you, you're just digging your own grave."
With a flash of purple light, Lei Xiao and his men had already arrived close to the enemy.
Under the illumination of the magic ball of light, a face of the possessed being covered with black crystal clusters and with hollow eyeballs came into view of everyone.
The other party's twisted face was covered with untidy beard, and black veins were exposed everywhere, mixed with dense black crystal clusters, looking particularly hideous and terrifying. His thick and obviously shorter limbs looked extremely powerful, with bulging muscles all over his body. His strength was obviously at the half-step seventh level.
"It turns out to be a scruffy bearded parasite."
Jasmine's brows were knitted tightly together, and the staff in her hand was already emitting fierce energy fluctuations.
"You insignificant human race, I will never let you go!"
The opponent suddenly jumped up, swung the heavy axe in his hand violently, and chopped towards Lei Xiao's head!
"Triple Space Strangulation!"
"Silver Lightning!"
"A hundred thunder stars fall!"
The reactions of our strong men were obviously faster. Sharp rays of magical light shot out and completely devoured the opponent.
When the dazzling lights gradually faded, the opponent had already fallen to the ground, with thick black smoke all around him.
"Ants, don't think this is the end. The Demon-Blocking Wall is on the verge of breaking. Your good days are coming to an end. The terrible shadow of death and domination is about to fall on each and every one of you!"
The other party slowly raised his head, and his hideous face covered with crystal clusters became more distorted. He began to laugh sinisterly again: "This has just begun. The prelude to destruction has been opened. What you are about to face will be unexpected despair and pain. Hahahaha..."
Before the opponent's twisted and sinister laughter could completely fade away, another overwhelming wave of magic roared in, and when the light gradually faded, the opponent had become a pool of black mud, with only a battle axe and a broken armor that emitted a foul smell remaining in its place.
"Tsk, you are still talking nonsense! As long as His Majesty is still standing here, you will never be able to make trouble!"
Jasmine crossed her arms, as if she had completely considered herself a part of our side.
At this point, the entire battle came to an end.
"As expected of Your Majesty!"
It was not until the huge underground space became quiet again that Lila and Keira finally recovered from the series of surprises that had just occurred.
You know, just now they were still trapped in the grief of a life-and-death battle, but in the blink of an eye, we had turned the tide and cast the weight of victory on the scales of the battlefield!
The root of all this is precisely because of your Majesty's calmness and composure in the face of danger! Of course, there is also the unfathomable background and surprising trump card!
As they thought of this in their hearts, Lila and Keira's eyes were filled with irrepressible respect and admiration.
"The battle is not over yet, let's go back now."
At the core of the team, after confirming that the enemy had been completely eliminated, Lei Xiao nodded to the powerful men.
After hearing Lei Xiao's words, all the strong men took orders in unison and turned back along the way they came.
As he moved forward, Lei Xiao couldn't help but frowned slightly.
What the other party said just now might not be just nonsense. Combined with my own speculation, the catastrophe is indeed getting closer.
From this period of time on, I am afraid that the eruptions of magical veins in various places will become more frequent, and the number of "eclipses" will increase. These are all precursors to destruction.
In addition, based on the situation in the Dragon's Lair Battle, it is not difficult to see that "Eclipse" has already affected and even controlled certain races, including the Dragon Race, to a considerable extent, which undoubtedly makes things more complicated.
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this, the group had already returned to the interior of Graythorn Castle.
I saw that many of the magic patterns on the walls that were originally completely destroyed were reappearing, and the corroded walls were also being filled up again, which undoubtedly meant that the miracle building was automatically repairing itself.
Lei Xiao was not surprised about this. As long as the miracle building was not damaged to the point of serious damage, it still had a considerable degree of automatic repair capability.
Of course, if the damage is too severe, it can only be repaired manually using materials, just like the Light Chaser Castle before.
After returning to Greythorn Castle, the group did not stop, but flew out of the city. The "Eclipse" there was probably the last part, and only when everything there was cleaned up, the battle could be considered to have come to an end.
Not long after Lei Xiao and his group left, in the underground space where the fierce battle had just taken place, a group of strange figures like ghosts suddenly emerged and began to look around the surrounding environment.
Judging from the special emblem on the chest of their hoods, they are a group of extremely mysterious "Eclipse" destroyers.
"That weak human emperor is really capable. He managed to deal with so many of them. It really saved us a lot of trouble."
A slightly surprised hoarse female voice sounded, and she said leisurely: "This is not something that everyone can do."
After saying that, the other party took off his hood, revealing a white face covered with crystal clusters. (End of this chapter)
