Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong

Capítulo 2720: Chapter 1494: Dialogue and Doubts

As the familiar feeling of weightlessness flashed past, when Leo Ray’s vision cleared again, he found himself having passed through the Teleportation Gate and arrived in an extremely spacious and damp underground space.

“Guiding Light!”

Accompanied by Little Jie, in the form of a little elf, releasing a row of illuminating magic spheres, Leo Ray further took notice.

This place is exactly the same as Old Nick described; the space can be described as extremely vast, even if Little Jie’s row of magic spheres instantly flew several hundred meters in a fan shape, they still couldn’t completely illuminate the surrounding area, the space overhead was indeed exaggerated, at least four to five hundred meters high.

“Is it really located deep underground?”

Leo Ray’s eyes narrowed slightly, listening to the distant sound of the underground river while looking towards the depths of the space.

In the reflection of the magic spheres, a gigantic ancient city gradually revealed its iceberg-like tip, the ancient mottled stone walls faintly reflected the light of the spheres, and outlines of buildings intertwined with light and shadow were everywhere.

“Sheila, did you find any traces of ‘Corrosion’?”

Leo Ray composed himself and immediately inquired of another little elf form stone spirit on him.

“My Lord, there’s no discovery at the moment.”

Sheila closed her eyes for a moment and then shook her head: “There’s no sign of life here either, it seems to have been a long time since anyone came.”

Hearing Sheila’s words, Leo Ray nodded slightly.

She was right, back then, although Old Nick and his party visited here, they were soon devoured by the sudden ‘Corrosion’, leaving only Old Nick to escape this place.

Compared to such a vast space, the vitality brought by Old Nick and his party had long since vanished.

While Leo Ray was observing, companions Moli, Kara, and Old Nick, as well as other main strength experts, followed along; more magic spheres flew out swiftly, soon illuminating the surrounding area brightly.

Even so, several hundred meters away, it still remained pitch black everywhere, unable to see the end of the space.

“Look after them.”

Leo Ray nodded to the group of Tier 6 experts, and they immediately guarded Kara and the others in the middle of the team.

The reason Leo Ray brought them here was, firstly, to protect Kara and others and allow them to further understand the current situation, and secondly, to let Old Nick lead the way and confirm the location of the ‘Corrosion’.

After arranging the team of hundreds of experts, Leo Ray began to step forward.

Just after walking over a hundred meters, Old Nick’s old face turned pale, pointing to a nearby underground river tremblingly: “Your Majesty, that’s the place where the ‘Corrosion’ appeared!”

“Thank you for your hard work, sir.”

Leo Ray gently patted the other’s shoulder, signaling him not to be nervous, then led the strong warriors over.

Once they got closer, Leo Ray looked around, the water here flowed gently, clear to the bottom, exactly the source of the flow sound he heard at the start.

“My Lord, this place indeed permeates with energy waves of earth attribute magical ley lines.”

Crisis folded her wings, after sensing for a moment, she nodded to Leo Ray and said, “The closest magical ley lines are probably a few hundred meters further down the riverbed.”

As an Earth Element Grand Mage specializing in City Building Art, this Wood Fairy Clan Leader was evidently extremely sensitive to energy waves of corresponding attributes.

“My Lord, I sense it too.”

Fanny, also an Earth Element Grand Mage, bowed with hand on chest and agreed: “Furthermore, there are lingering traces of earth attribute magical ley line eruptions here, roughly from around one year ago.”

“That’s exactly when Old Nick and his team came here, everything aligns.”

Leo Ray nodded slightly and then inquired: “Can we predict when the next eruption will be?”

“My Lord, based on the current situation, there’s no sign of an impending eruption, but magical ley lines are highly unstable, so I can’t make an accurate judgment.”

Crisis shook her head helplessly, responding, and Fanny also showed the same expression, clearly sharing the same view.

“Understood, at least no eruption yet.”

Leo Ray didn’t dwell on it and continued leading the group towards the direction of the ancient relics.

“My Lord, one thing perplexes me; since there is no trace of ‘Corrosion’ here, where have they gone?”

The Troll Clan Chief, Han Ershu, who had just been subdued by Leo Ray with [Contract Purple Crystal], bowed with hand on chest, his rough blue face showing a touch of doubt.

“That’s simple. During the eruption of magical ley lines, they can freely move between here and their lair, unaffected by the eruption, which means they might have returned before the eruption ended.”

Moli responded lightly, without any tension, casually.

Then her tone revealed a hint of seriousness, continuing: “Or they might have left the cave without using a Teleportation Array and stealthily infiltrated the Human Clan.”

“Such occurrences aren’t rare; sightings of ‘Corrosion’ occasionally appear around my hometown, but they’re quickly eradicated, as the God’s Stone is extremely effective against these bizarre creatures. And even if parasitic upon someone, their appearance usually changes significantly, making them easy to distinguish.”

As Moli mentioned this, the atmosphere within the team grew increasingly heavy.
