Chapter 1501: Repulsion and Doubt

"Your Majesty the City Lord, what happened?"

Noticing the sudden change in Old Booker's expression, Lei Xiao immediately asked.

"Your Excellency Brave, the underground fortress guarding Guanwang City is under attack from "Eclipse"! "

Old Booker waved his hand, and a large map appeared. What was depicted on it was the topographic map of Guanwang City.

It can be seen from the map that there is a quite large fortress near Guangwang City. The two are at the horns of each other, and the distance is not far away.

"Without further delay, let's set out to rush for help now, and ask the old city lord to lead the way."

Lei Xiao did not hesitate and stood up from his seat.

Lei Xiao clearly understood that although the prompt did not indicate the punishment for failure to defend the city, since this was an isolated city waiting for help, the result was very obvious.

Once the city is breached by "Eclipse", it will naturally be difficult for us to escape the fate of being destroyed.

"Excuse me, Hero, the teleportation array leading to the fortress is not far outside the Great Temple!"

Old Booker nodded to Lei Xiao, then took the brunt of the attack and guided everyone to rush outside the temple.

It didn't take long for the group of people to arrive in front of another large teleportation array in the city. There was already a long queue here, and many well-armed elite soldiers were filing into the teleportation array. The whole scene was He looked nervous and solemn.

"Lord City Lord, except for the Divine Stone General who is guarding the city, the other two have already arrived at the fortress!"

The middle-aged general named Curry came up and reported to Old Booker.

"Very good, you stay here as well, and I will lead the heroes to help!"

Booker nodded to Curry and ordered: "The opponent is extremely cunning, and we cannot rule out the possibility of the opponent attacking in the east and west."

"Got the order!"

Curry stroked his chest and saluted, and then ordered the soldiers standing in the front row of the teleportation array to get out of the way.

Hearing that Lei Xiao and others, who were brave men, came to help, all the soldiers were excited and looked at Lei Xiao and his group with respect.

But Lei Xiao keenly noticed that there was not only respect and excitement in these eyes, but also a hint of sadness and helplessness.

"It's no wonder. "Eclipse" is too terrifying after all. It's not surprising that ordinary soldiers would have such expressions. "

Lei Xiao didn't think much, and led our strong men into the teleportation array under the guidance of Old Booker.

The familiar feeling of lightness flashed past, and when Lei Xiao's vision became clear again, he had already arrived at a school field with longing figures.

The human soldiers who had just come to the rescue were quickly lining up and marching towards the towering fortress wall. In addition, Lei Xiao actually saw some dwarf soldiers and alchemy puppets.

Although the strength of these soldiers is above level four and they appear to be well-trained, an obvious feeling of uneasiness still fills the air quickly.

"Your Majesty the Brave, please follow me this way!"

Booker clenched the sacred stone staff in his hand and began to lead the way forward again.

After another burst of wind and lightning, Lei Xiao and his group of more than a hundred people quickly climbed onto the wall of the fortress.

Through the gaps in the towering battlements, when Lei Xiao and others saw clearly the enemies outside the fortress, they couldn't help but open their eyes wide.

I saw densely packed "eclipses" of different colors all suspended in the mid-air very close to me, constantly using those slender roots to attack the fortress's absolute defensive barrier crazily.

With every touch of those slender roots, the barrier wall will make an extremely dull sound, like a death knell that echoes in the ears, constantly vibrating in everyone's heart.

Not only that, the fear brought about by the "eclipse" also followed him like a shadow, causing everyone to feel a chill rising.

For a time, countless giant eyeball-like "eclipse" roots danced wildly in the air, and it was impossible to see the end at a glance. Although there was no cry of killing, it was extremely shocking.

Fortunately, most of the people Lei Xiao brought were sixth-level powerhouses. As for fourth-level Carol, Calvin, Old Nick and others, they were all placed in the temple, so as long as they mobilized the energy in their bodies to deal with it, they would be enough to avoid the opponent. The influence of fear.

In addition, the golden brilliance of the fortress's absolute defense barrier was also dim visible to the naked eye, and cracks began to appear faintly.

"Your Majesty the Brave, this is the opponent's main attack direction. Other directions are guarded by other divine stone generals. Leave it to me to wait here!"

Old Booker was the first to bear the brunt. As he waved his staff, a giant golden beam of light fell from the sky and hit the nearest "Eclipse".

Wherever the golden beam of light covered the area, all the "Eclipses" seemed to have been hit hard and were knocked to the ground one after another. The dozen or so in the center disappeared instantly, leaving only a pile of mucus scattered on the ground. , evaporated quickly.

At the same time, the bodies of the soldiers around Old Booker also flashed with a golden brilliance, and they shot arrows one after another, knocking down some of the "Eclipses" to the ground. It often took several arrows to explode one. This was obviously It's just that he got to share the power of the stars from Old Booker.

However, in the face of tens of thousands of "eclipses", such an attack was obviously insignificant. It only caused the opponent's offensive to stagnate a little, and did not play a decisive role.

"It's time for me to show up."

Lei Xiao waved his big hand, and Xiaojie, Xiaojing and Xuanji appeared at the same time. The power of the gods followed them like a shadow, and directly activated the power of the stars of the three stone elves.

With the dual blessing of the power of God and the power of the stars, plus the power of the silver moon that the stone elves usually use, the three stone elves instantly completed the power stimulation and gave back more powerful power to Lei Xiao.

After receiving this special power that combines the power of God, the power of the silver moon and the power of the stars, Lei Xiao also shared it with our powerful men, making them shine with a more dazzling golden light, obviously gaining the power to fight against the "eclipse".

For a moment, our powerful men who had been ready to go attacked overwhelmingly and roared towards the "eclipse" army in front of them.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

After a series of deafening explosions, the "eclipse" near the fortress wall was almost cleared out, and the effect was extremely significant.

Seeing this scene, Lei Xiao nodded with satisfaction.

After the stone elves have completed the power stimulation, the holder of the [God's Stone] can also share the power to fight against the "eclipse" with the surrounding strongmen, which is what Xuanji told herself.

"Your Excellency the Brave is mighty!"

Seeing the might of our strongmen led by Lei Xiao, Old Booker and the soldiers defending the city were also very excited.

However, before everyone could get excited for long, more "eclipses" had already surged up, densely packed, and continued to attack the crumbling barrier wall.

"Thunder arc burst!"

Lei Xiao's body was full of purple light, and his staff pointed directly at the most densely populated "eclipse" in front.

Wherever the dazzling lightning went, all the "eclipses" were instantly blasted into a pile of slime, and even the surrounding "eclipses" were blasted. As the core of the power of the three stone elves, Lei Xiao's power to fight against the "eclipse" is far beyond the ordinary strongmen. Coupled with Xuanji's enhancement, he is undoubtedly the most dazzling existence in the team.

As for the other strong men on our side, including Jasmine, although they can only wipe out the "eclipse" within the attack range, they are much stronger than the attacks of Old Booker and others.

In our camp, there are several strong men who are also very critical, that is naturally Sarah, Erza, Ye Cang, Nanxing, and Nanyue.

As the holders of the [God's Stone], the five subordinates also completed the power stimulation for Xiao Zhao, Xiao Huan, Da Zhuang, Xiao Xing and Xiao Yue with the help of the divine power shared by Lei Xiao, further enhancing our power to resist the "eclipse".

So far, although the offensive of "eclipse" is extremely fierce, with the efforts of Lei Xiao and his party and Old Booker and others, it finally retreated like a tide and soon disappeared in the depths of the underground space.

"Did we finally repel them?"

Lei Xiao wiped the sweat from his forehead and couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

It must be said that while mobilizing energy to resist the fear brought by "eclipse", while casting spells with all his strength, the consumption of magic power is much more than that of ordinary battles.

After heaving a sigh of relief, Lei Xiao looked at the powerful men around him. They were all panting, even the stone elves.

"Thank you for your hard work, Your Excellency the Brave!"

Old Booker came up with excitement and said to Lei Xiao gratefully: "Thanks to Your Excellency the Brave this time."

After Old Booker finished speaking, the other generals who were accompanying him to defend the city also nodded in thanks, all with a look of respect.

"Your Excellency the City Lord is too polite. I have already said that we will help you hold out until the reinforcements arrive."

Lei Xiao waved his hand slightly, then frowned and asked: "Is every attack of the enemy of this scale?"

"At the beginning of the siege, the enemy's offensive was far from being so fierce, but in the past few days, it has all been of this scale."

Old Booker sighed and responded: "Fortunately, the brave gentlemen arrived in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."

After hearing Old Booker's words, everyone on our side breathed a sigh of relief. If they were summoned when the city was broken, the situation would undoubtedly be even worse.

From this point of view, although our mission this time is extremely abrupt and extremely dangerous, it is at least a good start.

Among the crowd, only Lei Xiao himself was still frowning, and continued to ask: "Old City Lord, is there anything important you haven't told us?"

"Ah? Why do you say that, Mr. Brave?"

Booker's wrinkled old face was full of confusion, and he obviously didn't understand what Lei Xiao meant.

"Then I'll just be more straightforward. If this time we were lucky to arrive in time to resolve this crisis, then how did you resist the attacks of "Eclipse" in the previous times? "

Lei Xiao folded his arms and spoke again.

As soon as Lei Xiao said this, all our strong men reacted immediately.

The Lord is right. The battle just now was not easy. We fought hard to repel the enemy. According to the old city lord, the scale has been like this in the past few days. How did the old city lord and his men repel the enemy in the previous attacks?

"This..."

Old Booker and the other generals defending the city soon understood the meaning of Lei Xiao's words and were speechless for a while.

After a while, Old Booker wiped the sweat from his forehead and responded: "To be honest with you, Mr. Brave, before this, two groups of brave men have been summoned here. "

"Is it really so?"

Lei Xiao looked as if he was expecting it, and immediately asked: "Then how are they doing now?"

"Your Majesty, please come with me."

Old Booker nodded to Lei Xiao and began to lead the way again.

After returning to the center of the city through the teleportation array, Lei Xiao and his party finally stopped in front of a sleeping place near the Great Temple.

I saw Old Booker pointing to the brand-new group of tombstones at the front, and said: "They are all here. Of course, their bones have long been gone, and the [Stones of God] have all disappeared. They are probably "corroded" "Took it away, the opponent also knows that [God's Stone] is their nemesis, so they will focus on dealing with it. "

"No wonder the soldiers looked at us with complex meanings such as sadness and helplessness. It turns out that two groups of lords have already fallen here with their strong men."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly and frowned even more.

This is still at the current stage. What is certain is that as time goes by, the attacks of "Eclipse" must become more and more fierce.

With awe in his heart, Lei Xiao asked again: "Then how were they defeated by "Eclipse"? "

"Returning to your Excellency the Brave Lord, after repelling the attack of "Eclipse", the first group of braves chose to leave the city to pursue, but they never came back. "

Old Booker did not hide anything anymore and said truthfully: "The second batch was the "Eclipse" who sneaked into the city. They first parasitized and then used a beauty trap to separate the leader of the brave man from the [God's Stone], and then took advantage of their unpreparedness. At that time, it was completely devoured, and the [Stone of God] disappeared. "

"Isn't there an absolute defensive barrier here? The other party can actually sneak into the city?"

Lei Xiao's brows furrowed even more and he asked.

"They sneaked in before the siege, and there were a lot of them. Although I led people to conduct thorough investigations many times, there were still fish that slipped through the net."

Old Booker shook his head helplessly and responded.

"After being parasitized by Eclipse, the person being parasitized should have obvious characteristics. How could he not be able to tell the difference and still fall victim to the attack? "

Jasmine curled her lips and asked with furrowed eyebrows.

"Because in the early stages of being parasitized, the characteristics are not obvious and can be easily obscured. Especially when the host's consciousness has not been completely erased and the host's body has not been completely controlled, it is even difficult for the host himself to detect it."

Booker's old face was even more helpless, and he responded: "So, although we have many means of tracking and identifying eclipses, there will still be some mistakes. "

Hearing this, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.

The other party is right, the white knight is the best example. At the beginning, the crystal on the white knight's forehead was indeed only a small piece.

"By the way, Your Majesty the Brave, there is one more thing."

Old Booker seemed to remember something and looked at Lei Xiao again. (End of chapter)
