Chapter 883: endless shackles
Lei Xiao, who was hovering in mid-air, noticed after riding Hongye into the fog.
There are still two moons in the sky here, but the billowing smoke and screams on the battlefield no longer exist.
Instead, there is a vast expanse of quiet wooden land that looks smooth and wet.
I saw this weird wooden land, every other distance, the color changed slightly.
And the changes are extremely sudden, with a full sense of fragmentation, as if it is spliced by pieces of wooden boards that are hundreds of meters long.
And in the farther place, there are square and huge mountain peaks standing upright. Under the hazy night, people can't see clearly.
After all, Lei Xiao, who has been fighting at low altitude just now, is only tens of meters away from the ground, his field of vision is relatively limited, and his visibility at night is far worse than during the day.
But these are not the most eye-catching.
What is even more eye-catching is that in the distance of this wooden land, three tall towers can be vaguely seen standing one after another.
Every tall tower goes straight into the sky, at least several thousand meters upward, and it is impossible to measure the exact height.
"Strange wooden ground, square and square peaks, three tall and slender towers soaring into the sky... What kind of weird place is this?"
While puzzled in his heart, Lei Xiao made further discoveries.
The originally strong smell of blood and scorched lake in the surrounding area has long since dissipated.
On the contrary, a faint salty smell poured into his nostrils, which is the smell that can only be found by the sea.
All in all, the weird scene in front of me is completely different from the scorching battlefield just now, and people can't help but be amazed.
"Sure enough, it's another strange illusion."
Lei Xiao concentrated his mind, trying to see some clues, but it didn't work at all.
"My lord, this is indeed an extremely exquisite fifth-order illusion, and even the subordinates can't see any flaws."
Even though he was still in the form of a dragon, Hong Ye's sassy and clear voice still entered Lei Xiao's mind.
"Red Night, take a look in the sky."
Lei Xiao pondered for a moment, then patted the thick dragon scales in front of him lightly.
"Obey, my lord."
Having received Lei Xiao's instructions, Hong Ye flapped her giant wings and began to soar into the sky at high speed.
Feeling the increasingly bitter wind in the sky, Lei Xiao looked down, his face suddenly full of surprise.
As the field of vision became wider and wider, Lei Xiao found out.
This is not a quiet wooden land at all, but an unbelievably large three-masted sailing ship, sailing on the endless calm sea!
This unimaginable three-masted sailing ship is even bigger than the entire Wangxing City. Those square objects are not mountains at all, but giant wooden boxes piled on the hull.
As for the three tall towers, needless to say, they are exactly three slender masts that are so tall that the tops cannot be seen!
For a moment, this huge island-like hull was extremely shocking,
"Dude, I feel like an ant."
Surprised, Lei Xiao just wanted to order Hong Ye to try to fly out of the illusion, but found that he seemed to be shifting, and instantly moved from the port side of the huge hull to the starboard side.
"Lord, it seems that although we are flying upwards, we are not actually walking in a straight line, but have completely lost our direction, as if we have entered a maze."
Hong Ye's somewhat helpless rustling sound rang in Lei Xiao's ears again: "Your subordinate will try to fly straight to the end."
After finishing speaking, Hong Ye's giant dragon wings vibrated, like a flaming meteor, shooting straight towards the boundless sea.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Lei Xiao and Hong Ye to reappear on top of the giant hull, as if they had circled around in a big circle.
"It seems that the reason why the opponent used this hole card is obviously to delay time and try to regroup."
Lei Xiao frowned, nodded to Hong Ye and said: "Forget it, this illusion may cover the entire area of our side including Wangxing City, so let's go down first, Xiao Huan and Ersha are also Here, we will definitely find a way to leave."
At the same time, Lei Xiao and Hong Ye, who were high in the sky, were trying to leave the illusion to no avail.
Jiang Li, Wu, and Teresa who were on the hull also failed to find a way to leave after a lot of trying.
"I didn't expect that No. 3 actually had such a hole card hidden!"
Jiang Li's pointed ears were shaking slightly because of her eagerness, and her fair face was full of helplessness.
Just now is the best time to pursue the opponent's remnant soldiers and defeated generals. If you delay here for too long, the advantage that the lord has gained with all his efforts will disappear again.
"This illusion is extremely exquisite, and the weaving is impeccable. I am afraid that even the fifth-order peak powerhouses will find it difficult to escape."
Teresa's willow eyebrows were tightly frowned, and she muttered: "The brotherhood strongman has used the extremely rare fifth-order illusion scroll several times, which undoubtedly means that there is a high possibility of a peak-level fifth-order illusion master in the opponent's camp. , that must be an extremely difficult object.
"At least the other party is not here, otherwise No. 3 would not use the illusion scroll."
Wu's voice was obviously much calmer. He nodded to Jiang Li and Teresa and said, "The most urgent thing is to quickly find a way to get out of here."
"Mr. Wu is right. The environment here is oppressive and chaotic. Those who are stronger than Tier 3 can do their job with ease, but other ordinary soldiers will definitely faint if they stay here for a long time, which will greatly reduce our strength."
The three fifth-tier powerhouses had just said this, and Lei Xiao's gentle voice rang out.
Hearing Lei Xiao's voice, the three of them followed the prestige.
I saw Lei Xiao, Ariel, and Xiao Huan dressed as a young magician walking over from a giant wooden box.
"The old minister has seen Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Wu first saluted Ai Lier, then nodded to Lei Xiao and said, "As expected of Your Excellency Ke Qing, this time Your Excellency Ke Qing really turned the tide."
"Mr. Wu has won the award. If there is no help from everyone, how can I turn the tide? I should thank you all."
Lei Xiao smiled, nodded slightly, and said, "But it's not time to celebrate. If we are trapped for too long, we will definitely give the other party a chance to breathe. By then, it will be too late."
"Your Majesty's words are very true."
Looking at Lei Xiao's face, Teresa frowned slightly imperceptibly.
Although I don't know why Lei Xiao did this, the Holy Maiden of the Moon Palace has already noticed the true identity of "Lei Xiao" in front of her right away.
That's right, it was not the real Lei Xiao who appeared in front of everyone with Ariel and Xiao Huan, but Erza who had transformed into Lei Xiao.
After Lei Xiao upgraded all Ersha's equipment to Tier 5.
Coupled with the ancestral illusion ring that has returned to the sixth level, Ersha's best illusion ability is enough to make any fifth-level powerhouse unable to see the flaws.
As for why Lei Xiao asked Erusa to pretend to be himself, it was naturally to conceal that he was the "Black Flame Knight".
Lei Xiao clearly understands that at this stage, it cannot be ruled out whether there is still the other party's eyeliner in this sudden illusion.
Once Hong Ye was discovered by the opponent's eyeliner during the transformation, and then informed the No. 3 black-robed man and the Black Duke, the situation would undoubtedly be extremely troublesome.
So, just to be on the safe side.
Lei Xiao chose to continue to stay in the illusion as the "Black Flame Knight", and controlled Erza's actions through words.
And even though Ersha could hide it, Lei Xiao was not very familiar with her yet.
But she couldn't hide it from Teresa, who was her younger sister. After all, there was a special bloodline connection between the dark elf twin sisters, which obviously couldn't be concealed by illusion.
"Then, may I ask your Excellency Ke Qing, what can you do to get out of here?"
Looking at Lei Xiao, who was disguised by Ersha, Teresa's tone was obviously less polite and respectful, and she asked with her mouth curled up.
"Of course there is nothing I can do, but in my camp, there is one person who can help."
"Lei Xiao" obviously also discovered Teresa's discovery, and quickly pushed Xiao Huan out who had been waiting in the back row.
As soon as Xiao Huan appeared, he was stunned for a moment, and then asked for the first time: "Your Majesty, who is this?"
Although in this special illusion, the perception of even the powerhouse of the fifth rank would be greatly restricted, but Xiao Huan, who was hopelessly bouncing around, seemed to be aware of something.
So much so that even he, who had been calm all this time, couldn't help being stunned.
"To be honest, Mister Wu, this is my subordinate, who is quite proficient in illusion."
According to Lei Xiao's instructions, "Lei Xiao" explained lightly: "Let her explain."
"Time is urgent, let's talk as we walk."
The image conjured up by Xiao Huan, although short in stature, looks extremely sophisticated, while taking steps, he began to explain: "As far as the little girl knows, this is an ancient illusion called "Endless Shackles". "
"Although the scenes of each "Endless Shackle" are different, their functions are exactly the same, that is, to trap the target. "
"At the same time, phantoms of the trapped people will be randomly generated in the phantom to prevent the target from advancing. The longer the target is trapped in the phantom, the more frequently phantoms will appear."
Speaking of this, Xiao Huan's tone became more serious: "So, this endless shackle will not only trap the target, but may also become the target's guillotine."
"Xiao Huan, besides us, there should be a large number of our ordinary soldiers trapped in the illusion, right? So, everyone here will be in danger?"
Jiang Li's willow eyebrows were twisted into twists, and she hurriedly asked.
"Don't worry, only moving targets will be attacked by phantoms. The lord has ordered our soldiers who are trapped to stand by."
Xiao Huan nodded to Jiang Li, and continued: "The only way to release the "endless shackles" is also very simple, and it is to break the formation here. "
"But the eyes of the illusion are often hidden very deeply, right?"
Teresa also stared at Liu Mei, and asked: "Then how do we find the eye?"
"Don't worry about this, because the one standing in front of you is a real master of illusion."
Xiao Huan crossed his hips, raised his chin and said: "The little girl will lead you to the formation as quickly as possible."
"So, as long as the eyes of the array are broken, it's all right?"
Accompanied by a gust of wind, the real Lei Xiao and Hong Ye also appeared above the heads of the crowd, and said: "Then please lead the way as soon as possible."
"No problem, the Lord... wish us all the best, please follow the little girl."
Xiao Huan coughed lightly, then quickened his pace.
Seeing the appearance of Lei Xiao riding on the giant dragon, Wu and Teresa both nodded their heads in salute, obviously maintaining considerable respect for this "Knight of Black Flame".
And Lei Xiao also politely returned the gift, nodding to the two of them.
Before Lei Xiao joined the team, he had already arranged everything through words.
Just as Xiao Huan said, the 50,000 elite pursuit troops led by Orr and others, as well as all our defenders in the city, are already on standby.
In the entire illusion, only the knotweed and the white knight are still fighting fiercely with the thorny giant sandworm.
As for the reconnaissance subordinates such as Curio who are in the imaginary realm, Lei Xiao has also ordered the former to carefully investigate the movement of the opponent's retreating army, in case of emergency.
"Everything has been arranged properly, and with Xiao Huan, who is comparable to a fifth-level illusionist, leading the way, things will be much simpler."
Lei Xiao, who was condescending, looked at the back of Xiao Huan bouncing and leading the way, and nodded in satisfaction.
Although this guy doesn't look very reliable, there is still no problem with his strength.
When I was on the space train before, I had already seen it.
Not long after the group left, accompanied by a few unfamiliar dragon roars, two giant red dragons, exactly the same as Hong Ye, descended from the sky and landed in front of everyone with a roar.
While causing the wooden ground under his feet to tremble, the majestic momentum can be described as astonishing.
From its half-solid, half-illusory appearance, it can be clearly seen that it is the illusion produced by the illusion.
Seeing the phantoms of two giant dragons appear, the group couldn't help but clenched their weapons tightly, not daring to be careless in the slightest.
The physical phantoms produced by this level of illusion are already comparable to the real dragons, which can be seen.
"You don't have to worry."
While the tense atmosphere was spreading, Xiao Huan in front of the team smiled and walked quickly towards the two red dragons.
For a moment, Xiao Huan, who was petite and exquisite, undoubtedly formed a sharp contrast with the two red dragons that were like hills, and looked extremely small.
When he got close, before the phantom appeared, Xiao Huan waved his hand casually, and the two huge red dragons instantly ~ as if they had never appeared before.
"Okay, let's move on."
Xiao Huan clapped his hands lightly, and walked in the front again.
"Have you avoided a fierce battle? This has saved a lot of trouble."
Seeing this scene, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows.
Fortunately, before the war started, I opened the "Wandering Gate" in time and found Xiao Huan, the "Stone of God", otherwise things might not have gone so smoothly.
After all, Erza's strength is still at the fourth-order level, and she still feels powerless to deal with this fifth-order illusion.
Then, a group of people went all the way on this giant wooden boat.
After Xiao Huan broke through several powerful illusions blocking the way, he soon came to an extremely huge hatch.
However, at this moment, the surroundings of the group of people were suddenly surrounded by black mist, and it became turbulent.
