Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong Chapter 2967 1622: Exploration and Advancement

Amidst the palpable excitement, a brilliant golden flash streaked past, and everyone felt that familiar sensation of weightlessness, signaling the activation of teleportation.

However, as their vision cleared, they found themselves still standing in their original spots within the hall, with no apparent changes to their surroundings.

"Huh? Why are we still in the same place?"

A look of bewilderment crossed Lila's fair features as she gazed upwards, puzzled.

At the 'Door Lock' position atop the stone giant, the Stone Giant's pendant and the Half-Titan's ring remained fixed, precisely as they had been.

"Could there be an issue with this 'Gate of Truth'?"

Kira tightened her grasp on her magic wand, a slight frown creasing her brow. "After all, this 'Gate' is quite unique, being integrated with the ancient Light Elves' Barrier Area."

"That's highly improbable, the 'Gate of Truth' is a divine creation!"

Xiao Jing stated, though her voice carried a note of uncertainty. After all, the 'Gate of Truth' she had encountered did possess a flaw, which led to their unintended entry into the mines of the ancient Dark Elves.

"But we did seem to teleport just now, unless we actually teleported back to where we started?"

Moli tilted her head, equally confused.

"No, we've indeed arrived in a completely new area. Look at the ground."

Leo Ray pointed to the dusty ground around them after a moment of observation. "It's also covered in a thick layer of dust here, and the air carries the same ancient scent as before."

Moli's eyes widened as she examined the surroundings. Suddenly, she exclaimed in realization, "There are no footprints here from when we first arrived!"

Upon hearing Moli's observation, the others quickly came to the same conclusion. Moments earlier, while exploring the hall, they had left numerous footprints, but this new area appeared untouched, as if no one had ever set foot here, with the dust lying undisturbed.

It seemed the Lord was indeed right; this was an entirely new region!

"If I'm not mistaken, the hall we were just in was merely a reflection of this place, essentially an area containing the 'Door Lock'. This, however, is the true interior of the 'Gate'."

Leo Ray nodded slightly, addressing the group. "The areas previously obstructed by barriers should now be accessible for exploration."

Hearing Leo Ray's words, excitement and anticipation surged through the formidable warriors present. This marked their first exploration of the legendary 'Gate of Truth', and considering its dual nature as the 'Gate of Truth' and an ancient Light Elves' Barrier Area, it was bound to contain long-hidden secrets, doubling their thrill!

"Everyone, remain vigilant. Do not forget that the 'Gate of Truth' itself presents a trial of life and death. Obtaining the [Divine Stone] is no simple task."

Leo Ray brought his palm forward, and a new, resplendent silver longsword, etched with vibrant purple magic patterns, materialized. This longsword, named "Silver Dome Ode," was Leo Ray's recently upgraded Seventh Stage weapon.

It bore a striking resemblance to the Rolanddel and provided a thunder attribute buff, perfectly complementing Leo Ray's Magic and Martial Dual Cultivation. Its specific attributes are as follows:

[Name: Silver Dome Ode]

[Grade: Seventh Stage • World (Dark Gold)]

[Attack Strength: Seven Stars]

[Additional Effect One: Thunder of the Silver Dome "Increases Thunder Attribute Attack Damage by 80%"]

[Additional Effect Two: Peak of the Silver Dome "Increases Thunder Attribute Buff Spell Effect by 80%"]

[Additional Effect Three: Edge of the Silver Dome "Increases Physical Penetration by 80%"]

[Note: This sword originates from the Silver Moon Era, forged by a Winged Demigod residing on Thunder Peak, utilizing top-grade Thunder Meteorite Iron. Legend has it that this gifted Winged Blacksmith was both a Chosen Son of God and a powerhouse in Magic and Martial Dual Cultivation, once counted among the demigods closest to divinity, but tragically encountered the Era of Blankness before ascending to the Divine Realm.]

Leo Ray's reminder immediately heightened the alertness of the other powerful warriors, who dared not let their guard down. Among them, Lila, Hollis, and Fei'er, along with the core group of formidable warriors, were all outfitted with Seventh Stage equipment, typically reserved for the elite fighters of top-tier forces. Moli, too, had received a full set from Leo Ray.

The gratitude and sheer joy of the warriors upon receiving their Seventh Stage equipment from Leo Ray were immeasurable. Moli, in particular, was so overwhelmed with emotion that she wept tears of happiness onto Leo Ray.

Even amongst the illustrious Forest Elves, who stood at the zenith of the Ten Thousand Clans, only individuals of the highest echelon, possessing both supreme status and formidable power, could aspire to acquire equipment of the Seventh Stage demigod caliber.

For Moli, a mere Forest Language Singer, essentially a decorative piece, obtaining a set of Sixth-order Equipment was already a windfall of immense proportions.

The moment Leo Ray concluded his words, an unforeseen turn of events transpired.

Without the slightest premonition, the eyes of the surrounding statues ignited with a crimson glare. The colossal, weighty great axes they bore tore through the air with lethal precision, hurtling towards the assembled group in a ferocious assault!

"Defend the Lord!"

Confronted by this abrupt peril, the formidable warriors reacted with astonishing alacrity. Those of the physical-type martialists surged forward, positioning themselves to intercept the descending axe blades, while the magic-wielding warriors, staff in hand, unleashed their offensive spells upon the animated statues.
