"Is this what this place really looked like back then?"

Lei Xiao and the strong men stood on the edge of the vast main mining area, and they all opened their eyes involuntarily.

After being completely covered by the sudden mirage, the place has completely changed its appearance. It is no longer lifeless and mottled, but a busy and orderly scene everywhere.

Thousands of mine carts loaded with resources were seen moving automatically on shining tracks, like intricate roots, spreading across every corner of the mining area.

In the mining areas that are being mined, there are clearly groups of busy figures wielding tools for mining.

These figures are all wearing the same style of black and brown colorful equipment. Some are similar to a combination of leather armor and cloth armor. They look very suitable. Judging from the magic lines covered on the surface of the equipment, it obviously provides the wearer with abilities. of bonus.

As for the levels, they are all above level five, and they are only the basic standard equipment here. There are many figures who look extremely skilled and are obviously equipped with more advanced equipment and mining tools.

"Even some mining tools are forged according to the standards of high-end weapons. They are worthy of the ancient dark elves who stood at the top of all races."

Broy's eyes moved back and forth, because the scene in front of him was so dazzling and shocking that he simply didn't know where to look first.

"Not only that, the strength of most of these miners is probably above the fifth level, and the fourth level only accounts for a part. Otherwise, they would never be able to use these high-level tools so skillfully."

Chrissy looked at the sturdy figures wildly waving the colorful pickaxes and colorful hammers, with the same dizzying look.

As for the rest of our party, their expressions are exactly the same as those of Broy and Chris, and they are obviously also immersed in the rare ancient scene brought by the mirage.

Among them, especially Erza and Teresa, they were so excited that they almost shed tears.

You know, this was the scene when the dark elves were at their peak. Even ordinary miners were mostly in the fifth level. How powerful and prosperous was this?

But today's dark elves, after experiencing three thousand years of ups and downs, are increasingly declining under the influence of war and various unfavorable factors, and have even gradually lost their status as a peak power. With such an obvious gap, how can we not Give them mixed feelings?

At the center of the crowd, Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, still looking at this rare sight.

What's also eye-catching is that these busy figures are not only dark elves with bodies that are almost the same as humans, with gray-white skin and long ears, but there are also many figures who are obviously from other ethnic groups.

For example, there are stone men who are obviously larger and burlier, and there are even giants that are quite similar to the Titans, etc.

"Lord, these are all affiliated forces of the dark elves. I have only seen them in ancient documents, because many of them no longer exist after the blank era."

Erza moved a little closer to Lei Xiao and explained in a whisper.

"So that's it."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly and continued to observe.

In addition, you can sometimes see groups of heavily armed dark elf soldiers patrolling, including many soldiers from affiliated forces.

Judging from the brilliance of the equipment, even the most ordinary soldiers have a full set of sixth-level equipment, and even have deep brilliance that Lei Xiao has never seen before. According to Bing Lao, there are many demigod-level experts among them. figure.

Despite their astonishing strength, the patrolling soldiers were obviously very familiar with the miners, chatting and laughing with each other.

All in all, the whole scene looked peaceful and nothing out of the ordinary.

However, because the illusion is too old, no specific conversation sounds can be heard. Only the crackling sounds of mining and the friction of the mine carts against the tracks can be heard, rippling back and forth in the huge space.

At the same time, Lei Xiao further noticed that the footprints here were also very dense. Many miners and patrols left obvious footprints in the mine on the sandy ground, and they did not disappear.

"Your Majesty the Human Race, judging from the location of the miners and the scale of the mining area, the current scene is almost the same as that of the ancient mine. This undoubtedly means that what this mirage records is exactly this ancient dark elf. The final moments of the mine.”

Ruth's fair face was full of solemnity, and she nodded heavily to Lei Xiao.

"So, we might actually see what happens to the people here in the end?"

Broy's eyes lit up, and a look of expectation appeared on his face involuntarily.

Just like what he just said, this is undoubtedly the best opportunity to understand the truth of the Blank Era. Even if it cannot clarify everything, it will still be an extremely important reference.

In the strong team led by Chris and Fanny, there are already several gray-haired old wood fairies and flower fairies who have taken out various tools and begun to record everything here.

"It does seem so, but we must not be careless. Don't forget that the owner of the unknown energy fluctuation is still in this ancient mine."

While Lei Xiao was pacing slowly surrounded by everyone, he reminded: "The other party is probably observing us in the dark right now."

"His Majesty the Human Race is right. With the sudden arrival of the mirage, the energy fluctuations here have become extremely chaotic, making it even more difficult for us to find the other party's traces."

Ruth calmed down her mind and said solemnly on her fair face: "Some powerful people should be kept on guard at all times, try to avoid the impact of mirages, and protect other people who are immersed in mirages."

"Just what I wanted."

Lei Xiao nodded slightly and immediately began to deploy.

Since Xiaohuan and Erza in our team are both strong in the illusion system, and our strong ones have been blessed with various resistance potions and magic scrolls in advance, we quickly arranged a few Sixth-level experts were guarding him.

On Ruth's side, several strong men headed by Myron were deployed with full momentum to resist the influence of the mirage to the greatest extent possible.

With the protection of a group of powerful people, Lei Xiao and others can naturally further relax their minds and feel everything brought by the mirage to the maximum extent, including the impact of vision, hearing, smell, and even other senses.

"Your Majesty, the human race, this place looks too normal, there is no scene before the mutation."

Not far from the phantom of a group of dark elf miners who were resting, Fanny, with her colorful wings flapping, looked left and right in mid-air and blurted out involuntarily: "These miners even leisurely took out their lunch boxes and prepared to eat. ”

"Indeed, it is simply unimaginable what happened after that to lead to the chaotic scene we saw at the beginning."

Broy thought of the messy scene with broken tools scattered everywhere, and swallowed subconsciously.

“Unexpected crises often happen when people are unprepared.”

When Lei Xiao heard the sound, he still looked calm and nodded slightly.

Just as Lei Xiao finished speaking, the dark elf phantoms who were sitting in groups and resting suddenly sensed something and looked towards the huge hollow area that ran through all the strata of the main mining area.

In the next second, the expressions on the faces of the phantoms instantly changed from confusion to surprise, and then to fear. Apparently they saw something that they did not expect.

For a moment, the lunch boxes and tableware that had just been taken out fell to the ground one after another, while the owners were trembling all over and their faces became increasingly pale.

This sudden scene not only happened to the phantoms around us, but also to all the phantoms in the entire mirage. The densely packed pale and frightened faces could not be seen to the end at a glance, and there were enough to count. One hundred thousand.

"They, what did they see?"

Broy was surprised and immediately looked along the vision of the phantom.

In the hollow area of ​​​​the main mining area, an extremely large black outline has appeared, hundreds of meters high, and it looks extremely tall.

The space where the black outline is located is completely distorted, and it looks like a reflection in the water. It is even unclear whether it is a mud-like entity or a shadow cast by a transcendent existence. It is impossible to see. True.

But what is certain is that the twisted giant black shadow is clearly reflected in the eyes of every phantom around, and uncontrollable fear is also reflected on the pale faces.

Among the panicked and stunned crowd, not only the large number of miners, but also the patrolling soldiers had the same appearance. Some soldiers' weapons and staffs even fell to the ground. The panic They looked helpless, as if they didn't even have the courage to contend, including those demigod-level warriors who were commanders.

However, in the eyes of everyone on our side, the blurry giant shadow that looked like chaos was strange and shocking at best, but it did not make people feel too frightened.

"What exactly is that giant black shadow?"

Although he knew it was just an illusion, Knar still subconsciously pulled out the long sword at his waist, with a solemn look on the dragon's face.

"It's still unknown, but what is certain is that the existence of this thing itself is like a huge source of interference, even affecting the mirage itself."

Ruth's delicate face was full of solemnity, trying to calm down her mood with deep breathing.

"Lord Ruth, are you saying that the giant black shadow interfered with the mirage, so that the phantom we see now is not its true appearance at that time?"

Lei Xiao reacted quickly and asked with raised eyebrows.

"That's right, Your Majesty the Human Race. Although this sounds incredible, the ancestors of the bright half-elves have done a lot of research on mirages. All the situations here are consistent with the interference of mirages."

Ruth nodded heavily, and the other strong light half-elves around her all agreed, obviously agreeing with the former's view.

"It's simply incredible that there is some kind of existence itself that can interfere with naturally occurring mirages."

Broy heard this and said with disbelief: "Even the most powerful illusion master can't do this, right?"

After hearing Broy's words, Xiao Huan and Erza couldn't help but look at each other, and then nodded affirmatively to Lei Xiao.

The dwarf king is right. In the final analysis, mirage is a naturally occurring magical phenomenon. It is formed extremely randomly. There are no signs before it appears, so naturally there is no possibility of early interference.

"No, according to the records in the ancient books of the bright half-elves, there is a powerful and transcendent existence that can interfere with mirages."

Ruth’s fair face became even more solemn, and she continued to add: “That is the omnipotent god, or even the projection and clone of the god.”

“So, what we saw was actually a certain god or the clone and projection of the god?”

Fanny looked up at the still distorted giant black shadow, frowned and said: “But according to ancient documents, on the eve of the blank era, during the Silver Moon Era when all races were at their peak, the relationship between the gods and all races was extremely close, and the statues and paintings of the gods were extremely common. Even if ordinary people have not seen the original body, they would not be afraid of it. Why do they show such panic and fear? "

"That makes sense. It should be an expression of worship and awe, which is consistent with the description of the scene of the gods' arrival in some ancient murals. "

Chris rested her chin on one hand and said thoughtfully: "What is going on?"

"Maybe they didn't see friendly gods, but evil gods."

Broy gently stroked his chin and said thoughtfully: "This seems to be the only reasonable explanation."

"Evil gods?"

After hearing the words of everyone, Lei Xiao also frowned and thought.

According to his conversation with the Queen of the Phantom Spirit Clan, it is indeed impossible to completely rule out the truth of the blank era. In fact, there was a war in which the evil gods returned.

If the truth is true, it is not surprising that the evil gods or their clones appeared here and caused fear.

But this will lead to a series of unanswered questions, such as the answers to various mysterious effects, the gods' no longer favoring, the reasons for the arrival of one billion lords, etc.

After all, if the evil god had won, this world would have ceased to exist long ago, so how could the orphans of all races be allowed to develop peacefully?

And the Queen of the Phantom Spirits has also confirmed that the power to activate the talents of the lords of the other world is the true sacred power of the gods, which is definitely not the power possessed by the evil god. The "divine revelation" that was still echoing in my ears not long ago can also prove that the gods have obviously not completely given up this world.

"But if the evil god is not the final answer, then who is the true face of this giant shadow? Is it my other guess that it is a god who is hostile to the dark elves?"

"But whether it is a war between gods and evil gods, or a war between gods, if the arrival of the lords of the other world is actively summoned by one side in order to win, then why didn't the other side stop it? What is the hidden story? Or have I not touched the real answer at all?"

Just when Lei Xiao frowned and thought of this, the illusion around him changed again in an unexpected way. (End of this chapter)
