Chapter 111 Stone Statue Guard
hiss……
Lin Sirius' breathing suddenly stagnated, and the air around him seemed to have stopped flowing.
Turning around very slowly, Lin Tianlang looked behind him. I saw that at the originally empty fork in the road, two more stone figures appeared silently.
At this time, the breathing of the four people stagnated, and no one noticed when the two stone statues appeared.
At this time, the two stone statues in front of Lin Tianlang were less than five meters away from him. The expressions on their faces were still lifeless sculptured faces, but their postures were quite weird.
Lin Tianlang just stared at the stone statue. Finally, he found a clue. These stone figures seem to be moving vaguely.
A creepy feeling rose from the bottom of his heart. Lin Tianlang only had one thought in his mind now, and that was to get out of this ghost place as soon as possible.
"Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!" However, at this moment, a frightened scream rang out.
It was Aniya, and a powerful stone hand rested on her shoulder, trying to grab her.
These stone statues can really move! And as long as no one is looking at them, they will act immediately, and they will not make any sound!
"# repel curse#!" Despite the fear, Xu Weiwei's reaction speed was still very fast. She recited the spell clearly, mobilized her magic power, and then accurately hit the stone statue behind Aniya.
The powerful magic power directly knocked the stone statue away six to seven meters.
"Oops!" Lin Tianlang hurriedly turned around, only to realize that the two stone statues were already in front of him!
"#impactspell#!!" He quickly chanted the spell and knocked back the two stone statues. The impact spell's knockback effect on a single target may not be as strong as the knockback spell, but it is still more effective against multiple targets.
"There's one over there too!" Sherry shouted. Stone figures also appeared in the other direction of the fork in the road. They no longer hid after being exposed and pounced directly on the four of them!
"Run!" Lin Tianlang shouted. It doesn't matter which direction it is, the most important thing now is to get rid of the immediate danger.
Picking a fork in the road, the four of them started running wildly. While running, Lin Sirius quickly looked down at the rainbow gem in his hand to observe the gem's reaction.
Run and run, but don't run blindly. The streets of this underground palace are as complicated as a maze. If you get lost while running around, you will never get out again.
The gem still glows at the frequency of two flashes. The stone statues next to the houses on the street surrounded the four of them. Fortunately, their movement speed was not very fast. Although there were stone statues in front of them constantly surrounding them, the stone statues behind them could not keep up with the speed of the four of them and were thrown away. Lost.
Lin Tianlang is very good at running. Sherry is an elf, her body is light and agile, and her speed is not inferior to Lin Tianlang's. But Xu Weiwei and Aniya were a little worse, especially Aniya, whose physical fitness was already poor.
"So why are you following me here?" Lin Tianlang complained. Although he didn't want to say this about his companion, for now, Aniya was completely a burden.
"I, I'm sorry!" Aniya was anxious and scared, almost crying.
This is the consequence of making a decision without careful consideration. I originally thought that this underground palace was just an uninhabited ancient city, but who knew there would be so many terrifying stone statues hidden inside.
Some time ago, when the rumors about the underground palace were at their worst, there was an uproar everywhere, saying that it was haunted and there were dead people. But later, as the underground palace was taken over by the Ministry of Magic, news related to the underground palace suddenly disappeared, and this ancient city gradually faded out of people's sight. Later, no one took the underground palace seriously anymore.
"It's useless to talk about this now, they've already arrived. The top priority is to get rid of these stone statues as soon as possible!" Xu Weiwei said loudly.
Shirley said nothing. A stone figure rushed over from the left. The blond girl's eyes narrowed, and then she quickly picked up her bow and arrow, and shot out an arrow with a "whoosh".
The arrow hit the stone statue between the eyebrows, and the huge impact forced the stone statue to take two steps back. However, that's all. Although the stone statue can move, it is obviously not a living thing. An arrow hitting the center of the eyebrow cannot kill it. With an arrow stuck in his head, the stone statue came at him again.
"# repel spell#!" Xu Weiwei read the spell loudly, causing the stone statue to roll five or six meters away. Before it could get up, everyone quickly ran past it.
The hearts of all four people were like an overloaded motor, beating continuously. The air was filled with tension.
We arrived at another crossroads, but several stone statues were already blocking the way, blocking the road.
"How to do?"
He looked at the pursuers behind him. Although he was not very fast, he kept following behind. Everyone suddenly realized that they seemed to be surrounded.
"You all get out of the way!" Lin Tianlang gritted his teeth. If you can't escape, there is only one way - kill it!
Summoning the weapon, Lin Tianlang held the one-and-a-half-meter-long staff and shouted the spell: "#**Fireball Technique**#!!"
Huge magic power poured into the tip of the staff. Lin Tianlang opened his eyes wide and hurriedly aimed the staff at the target.
"Boom!!!" A large fireball with a diameter of one meter shot out from the tip of the staff, and swooped towards the stone statues at the intersection like a tiger. After the violent explosion, several stone statues were immediately blown to pieces. The one who was directly hit by the fireball had one arm and one leg broken off.
What a powerful force!
Lin Tianlang was stunned. Next to him, Xu Weiwei was also stunned. Aniya also opened her mouth wide with a look of disbelief on her face.
The fireball technique just released through the staff has reached the sixth level of magic and is quite powerful. It was as hard as a stone statue and even its arms and legs were blown off. It is hard to imagine what the effect would be if it were bombed on a human body.
"Huh..." Lin Tianlang took a deep breath. Although the fireball was very exciting and powerful, it also consumed a lot of magic power. Use this trick as little as possible, otherwise his magic power will be drained out in a few strokes.
"Don't be stunned, hurry up and leave!" Lin Tianlang greeted the three women, and then ran to the front.
The stone statues were still surrounding the four of them in a steady stream. The stone statues in the entire underground palace seemed to be alarmed, but everyone could only follow the instructions of the rainbow gem and shuttle through the streets.
"Be careful!" Suddenly, a stone statue wanted to jump down from the second floor to attack Lin Sirius. Xu Weiwei quickly warned him and at the same time called him over with a lightning spell.
Although the low-level spells had no obvious effect on the stone statues, Xu Weiwei's spells still allowed Lin Tianlang to avoid being overwhelmed. If that stone man jumped from the second floor and fell on Lin Tianlang, he would probably have several ribs broken.
"Thank you." Lin Tianlang looked at the incompetent and furious stone man with lingering fear, and quickly thanked him.
"Lin Tianlang, just focus on the road. We can deal with these stone statues!" Sherry said calmly. From the initial panic, everyone has calmed down now.
Although these stone statues were scary and weird at first, their biggest fear was actually just the unknown. After they figured out what their enemies were, everyone was no longer afraid.
"Yeah, yeah! I will help too! I will definitely not hold you back!" Aniya was no longer afraid at this time, with a serious look on her pretty face.
"Put your staff away! These stone statues are probably just monsters in the underground palace. Your magic power is precious, so don't waste it so quickly! After all, we don't know if there will be any bosses later!" Xu Weiwei said loudly .
"Okay! Please!" Lin Tianlang nodded and said. Fortunately, these stone statues move relatively slowly, and it is easy to avoid them as long as they are not surrounded by a large number of stone statues.
He put away the staff of punishment. This golden staff is quite heavy in the hand, and it would be too inconvenient to run away with it.
Everyone continued to walk around in the underground palace. Everyone controlled the pace of running and tried not to consume their energy so quickly.
……
On the other side, the four people who were the first to enter the underground palace, led by the burly man, also encountered the same problem. They were also surrounded by stone statues, but unlike Lin Tianlang and others who chose to fight and retreat, their choice was to fight these stone statues to the end.
"Boss, there seems to be no way to kill all these stone statue guards!" the thin man said to the strong man in the lead.
"Don't worry, Kirisis. These stone statue guards only have this much, and it's not troublesome to solve them!" The strong man said disdainfully: "#**Explosion**#!"
"Bang!" A blast of magic power directly hit the nearest stone statue. The stone statue was blown to pieces as if it had exploded.
The explosion spell seems to have a particularly strong effect on stone statues. As long as they are hit by this spell, several stone statues will be blown to pieces immediately.
"Hmph, the explosion technique is indeed the biggest nemesis of these dogs!" The man with dirty long hair snorted coldly.
"Of course, it's not the first time I've encountered these things." The man in leather clothes responded.
The four people cleared the stone statues very quickly. The stone statues were not very fast to move, so the speed at which they surrounded them was not as fast as the four people could kill them.
……
Looking back, Lin Tianlang and others continued to walk through the underground palace. As we go deeper into the inner city, the streets gradually become less bifurcated. The reaction of the gems was stronger than before, indicating that they were closer to another fragment.
The stone statues behind him are still chasing after him, but in this dangerous underground palace, there are obviously not only scary stone statues.
Suddenly, there was a slight "click" sound in the air, and Lin Sirius felt as if he had stepped on something. Then, something seemed to be triggered.
