Seeing the monsters surrounding them, Salin immediately regretted allowing Rex to take Sue away.
This new follower might not be as strong as Nelis and Sica, and he might not even be able to defeat Sica alone. However, the monsters in front of him were the easiest to deal with.
Stone soldiers were creatures from the subcontinent.
Unlike Gargoyles, Gargoyle Soldiers had extremely high magic resistance, hard bodies, and lived in groups. There was only one Gargoyle Soldier in a group with relatively high intelligence. As long as the leader of the Gargoyle Soldiers didn't die, all the Gargoyle Soldiers could be revived.
In the subcontinent, these creatures were said to come from hell. Even demons couldn't be revived. If they died, they were dead. Even if you shattered a stone soldier, it would quickly turn back into a complete body.
The way to deal with stone soldiers was to defeat them quickly and find the leader. The leader was relatively weak. Once it was killed, the stone soldier couldn't be revived.
The silver sword saint's skills were meticulous and could cut the stone soldiers into pieces. Reviving them was very difficult and time-consuming. Apart from the demon Rolla, everyone else around Salin didn't have meticulous skills. Rolla's weapon was the Zhanmadao.
The Zhanmadao and Eva's meteor hammer were both heavy weapons. They were definitely effective against human soldiers, but they were a waste of energy against stone soldiers that didn't know pain.
Sica was fine since her weapon had an obvious advantage. Nelis, on the other hand, had a dragon tooth dagger. It was almost impossible for her to break the stone soldiers. If Sue or Zola were here, one Qinyin's eight-sided sword could deal with dozens of stone soldiers at the same time.
The stone soldiers were more than two meters tall and had green bodies. They looked like cloud rocks.
"Help me block them for five minutes. I'll calculate the position of the leader." Salin didn't attack the stone soldiers. Instead, he started calculating on the spot.
This space was very large. There were probably close to a thousand stone soldiers. If the leader wanted to control the stone soldiers to attack, there must be a pattern. From the stone soldiers' attack speed, angle, time interval, and order of recovery, one could calculate the approximate position of the leader.
Salin only did this in battle because he had powerful calculation skills. Usually, this would only happen on a large battlefield. At least a hundred mages were calculating at the same time to calculate the weakness of the enemy's formation.
Sica stood in front. She held a stick and waved it lightly. With every hit, a stone soldier would be broken. After shattering more than thirty Stone Soldiers, Shika had already grasped some of the rules and was conserving his strength. At the end of her staff, spikes had already emerged. The Stone Soldier's heavy body was unable to withstand it. Each of Shika's attacks broke the Stone Soldier into twenty-four pieces.
This kind of attack was the most energy-efficient. The Stone Soldiers would need more than two seconds to revive.
Eva didn't have to use much strength to deal with the stone soldiers. She wasn't afraid of them. The shield in his left hand struck repeatedly, and every time it struck, a Stone Soldier would be smashed into pieces. The Meteor Hammer in his right hand was not too fast, but if the Stone Soldier was hit, it would shatter into more than two hundred pieces.
Deafening booms filled the air, and stone shards filled the air. Eva had displayed her invincible might, fully utilizing her advantage in strength.
But if Eva was the only one surrounded, he would be killed by the stone soldiers sooner or later. The Stone Soldier's recovery speed was too fast. Even if it was shattered into more than two hundred pieces, it could still recover in ten seconds.
In a subcontinent, a group of Stone Soldiers was usually less than a hundred. Here, there were nearly a thousand Stone Soldiers. The leader must have evolved, which was why his recovery speed was so fast.
Rolla was having a hard time, but his Zhanmadao was very long. When he waved it, he could seal off an area. All the Stone Soldiers hit by the Zhanmadao would be split into five equal pieces from the center.
Frustrated, Neris took out a weapon she didn't use much from her bracelet. It was a blood-red scimitar. The blood on the scimitar was flowing, and it was dripping down to the ground. Even the Stone Soldiers could feel the murderous aura contained in the scimitar. Every Stone Soldier that was hit by Neris's scimitar would need more than five seconds to recover, even if it was only split in half.
Although Salin regretted not keeping Sue with him, the people around him were all good at violence, so they could withstand the crazy attacks of the Stone Soldiers. He observed with rapt attention. After grasping the frequency of the Stone Soldiers' attacks, he immediately deduced when the next round of attacks would be launched. A minute later, Salin could already determine the sequence of the Stone Soldiers' attacks.
The Stone Soldiers' defense was extremely strong, but their movements were not fast. Even Rolla could deal with a dozen of them at the same time with his Zhanmadao. It didn't take Salin five minutes to calculate the position of the leader of the Stone Soldiers.
It was right in front of him, about twenty meters in front of Silva. The leader thought that he was cunning and didn't hide too far, but he didn't expect that there was a human magician who could calculate his exact position.
Salin found the general position of the leader, but he didn't calculate which Stone Soldier it was. He knew that the subcontinent's language was rich, so he was afraid of leaking any information. He said to Silva in the unfamiliar Caucasian language, "Twenty meters in front, six targets."
Caucasians were the oldest people in Myers Continent, but they had never left this plane, so it was impossible for their language to appear in other planes. When Salin said so, Silva immediately understood. She laughed and said, "Neris, come with me."
After saying that, Shika leaped up. With this leap, he jumped 20 meters away. Nelis followed him like a shadow, but she rushed out of the Stone Soldiers. Two demons, one on the left and one on the right, protected Salin. At this time, Salin released the Water Pattern Shield, and three huge bubbles appeared. The weapons in the hands of the Stone Soldiers were all stone axes and stone pillars. When they hit the bubbles, they were either bounced off or slid away.
Salin's calculation consumed a lot of spirit power. He was too lazy to attack, but he just used defensive magic to protect himself and the two demons, waiting for Silva's results.
Neris's scimitar was as fast as lightning, and she slashed wildly outside the target range selected by Silva. Anyway, the fighting skills of the Stone Soldiers were terrible, and every slash could hit. If it hit, there would be five seconds of safety time.
Silva smashed down with her rod. Salin didn't tell her the specific target, but her intuition was much stronger than Salin's. The battle priest could distinguish the difference of the enemy. The appearance of the leader of the Stone Soldiers was the same as that of an ordinary Stone Soldier, but the spirit power and flexibility were hundreds of times stronger.
The two people officially cooperated for the first time, but it was flawless. Nelis dealt with the surrounding Stone Soldiers by herself, while Shika killed the leader of the Stone Soldiers with a single blow.
The Stone Soldiers were Level Four creatures, but this level was only reflected in their defensive power. If it were any other opponent, almost a thousand Stone Soldiers would have killed them.
Silva's rod smashed down, and the hand of the Stone Soldier wanted to dodge, but Silva's rod suddenly flashed with a faint black light, and then there was a clang.
The leader of the Stone Soldiers was completely shattered. Silva roared, and with a twist of her wrist, she smashed the surrounding five Stone Soldiers.
"Salin, done!"
Salin saw that the fallen Stone Soldiers did not resurrect, and said, "Eva, protect me. You guys split up."
Eva chuckled, and the Water Pattern Shield on her disappeared. She propped up the big shield, and jumped as fast as she could to protect Salin. Silva and the others killed their way into the Stone Soldiers, and began the final extermination.
Salin was secretly shocked. This battle was extremely short, and looked easy, but if it wasn't for his team, it would have taken at least two hundred elite troops to defeat these enemies.
Magic below Level Three had no effect on the Stone Soldiers, and even he was too lazy to use magic to attack these monsters.
Shika and the rest began to wipe out the Stone Soldiers in a frenzy. Even without the Stone Soldier Leader, the remaining Stone Soldiers took more than ten minutes to wipe out.
Be it Silva, Neris, or even Rolla, they didn't need a second attack to deal with the Stone Soldiers.
Salin came to the place where the leader died, and carefully put away all the fragments. All the Stone Soldiers here were in a semi-undead state. He put the fragments into the Green Spirit Gem, and sure enough, he felt that the fragments began to slowly close up, showing signs of recovery.
The Green Spirit Gem could heal undead creatures. Salin was secretly happy. If all the creatures in Lorgar City were like this, he could use the same method to subdue them.
When ordinary undead were killed, they actually returned to the Undead Plane, but these semi-undead had nowhere to go, and would only slowly dissipate. He could finally command thousands of troops like a Necromancer.
As long as he could revive in the hands of this Stone Soldier, all the other Stone Soldiers could be revived. As for how to control the Stone Soldier leader, as a Magician, there were many ways. The Stone Soldiers were not very intelligent, but the leader could be communicated with. Magicians could even control magical beasts that didn't know how to speak, not to mention the Stone Soldiers that had their own language.
After smashing all the Stone Soldiers, Silva and Neris were fine, but the two demons were very tired. Neris showed no mercy, and asked the two demons to start collecting the fragments of these Stone Soldiers. When she saw Salin put away the Stone Soldier leader with the Green Spirit, she knew what Salin was going to do.
"Salin, why are you collecting the whole thing?" Silva was puzzled. The Stone Soldiers were so fragile in her hands. If they were used to protect Salin, they would be useless against the strong. The strong could bypass the Stone Soldiers and attack Salin directly.
"To defend the city, of course. Do I really need to recruit troops? These Stone Soldiers eat at most ore slag, and don't even need to use magic cores. "
"Master, how do we leave?" Neris felt that something was wrong. This space was about a mile long, and the Stone Soldiers had been swept clean, so there should be an exit. But now this space was still closed, and there was no sign of change.
"It's not that simple. The Stone Soldiers are just the beginning. The real trouble hasn't come yet. " As Salin spoke, he blessed everyone with the Water Shield. This time, the Water Shield was tightly attached to the surface of everyone's body. Although it lacked the buffering ability, it did not affect their attack movements.
Before Salin finished speaking, from the center of the square, a figure slowly emerged from the ground.
"Humans, not bad. You are believers?" The gradually clearer figure turned around and revealed his face, looking at Salin and the others.
