Copper was highly conductive, and the lightning had almost completely penetrated the statue's body, making it difficult for it to move.
The strong power of thunder seemed to have transformed into shackles, locking the Guan Yu statue tightly to the ground. The thick and strong thunderbolts transformed into chains, binding the Guan Yu statue's limbs and bones.
Luo Qian's backup plan had not even been able to be put to use before the battle was over.
Looking at Gao Peng and the Thunder God behind him, Luo Qian opened his mouth to speak, but in the end, he swallowed back the words he had been about to say.
Because it seemed like it was going to be so easy ….
It had seemed as if the Guan Yu statue had been subdued in an instant.
But Luo Qian knew that it was not because the statue was weak, but because the Thunder God was too strong.
As expected of that lord's familiar. The bronze statue of Guan Yu, which was like the reincarnation of Emperor Guan, was subdued in the blink of an eye.
[Monster Name]: Animated Bronze Statue (Guan Yu)
[Monster Condition]: Mildly Injured (Paralyzed)
"Director, did the statue expend too much energy in the battle with our men?" one of Luo Qian's close subordinates whispered into his ear.
Luo Qian glanced at him with a half-smile. "Then I'll ask Mr. Gao's familiar to stop attacking, and I'll send you to try it out."
The man smiled awkwardly. He knew his own limits, so he left without another word.
Gao Peng's hearing was exceptional. Even though Luo Qian had been dozens of meters away, he had heard everything clearly.
He couldn't help but look at Luo Qian. This was a smart man. If he wanted to burn the bridge after crossing the river, Gao Peng wouldn't mind playing along.
As long as the Thunder God stopped attacking, the Guan Yu statue, which had been lying on the ground like a salted fish, would come alive.
Gao Peng couldn't help but admire the statue's defensive capabilities. After being attacked for so long, it had only been mildly injured, and this was even when its attributes were countered. The statue's defensive capabilities were truly exceptional.
If it had been physical attacks, the statue would have been even more resilient.
But that didn't mean it didn't have its disadvantages. For example, if the Thunder God's attack had been able to destroy the statue's combat power, it would have been even more vulnerable.
Gao Peng didn't think much of a Lord-tier monster with such an obvious weakness.
It would take too much time to raise a Lord-tier monster to King-tier. If this statue wasn't the only one in the world, Gao Peng had better options.
Transporting the statue back to Southern Sky City was a troublesome matter. It had to be constantly reinforced to suppress the lightning, or it would regain its ability to move.
Under such circumstances, it definitely couldn't be placed on an ordinary truck. Not to mention whether the truck could withstand the lightning, the driver wouldn't be able to withstand it.
In the end, Southern Sky urgently transferred a specially modified truck. The truck was made of a special insulating material, and the inside of the truck was paved with the bark of a special plant. This kind of bark was extremely tough and elastic. Most importantly, it was extremely resistant to lightning.
The statue was transported to the back of the truck. The Thunder God lay quietly behind it, continuously suppressing the statue with the power of lightning.
An hour later, they arrived at the Southern Sky Group. The Thunder God lay quietly on the back of the truck. Its dark purple shell was a little white, and its claws were tapping on the ground.
Gao Peng could tell the Thunder God was tired.
After all, it was a Lord-tier monster. It would take a lot of energy to suppress it.
Back at the Southern Sky Group, the truck drove in through the side door. The Guan Yu statue, which had been struggling on the back of the truck, suddenly quieted down.
Finally, the statue was transported to the lakeside. The truck driver looked at the statue curiously, then stepped on the gas and drove away.
The Thunder God could finally withdraw its power of lightning.
Guan Gong sensed that the power of thunder that had been restraining him had finally dissipated. He stood up from the ground hesitantly. His legs were glued to the back of the bronze horse, just like a centaur.
It waved the huge glaive in its hand, making it look fierce. After gathering its courage, the Guan Yu statue glanced at the Thunder God. Its bronze eyes narrowed into slits, then it turned around and hacked at Gao Peng!
Gao Peng raised his left hand and accurately grasped the glaive in front of him.
His feet sank, and his ankles sank into the mud. However, Gao Peng firmly caught the glaive.
Raising his eyebrows, Gao Peng pushed the Guan Yu statue upward. The statue was pushed back by Gao Peng.
The Guan Yu statue still wanted to attack, but suddenly, a deafening roar blew away the clouds above its head.
The clouds in the sky were shaken into drifting willow catkins.
The roaring sound waves flew into the distance, echoing among the mountains.
The Guan Yu statue had just raised its glaive, but suddenly, the glaive softened, and the bronze skin on its body shook violently. At this moment, it suddenly felt weak. It was as if someone had pulled out its skin.
The front of the villa was facing the water, and the back was facing the mountain. Behind the mountain, a head secretly poked out and stared at the Guan Yu statue below.
The ground under the Guan Yu statue's feet suddenly cracked. The statue couldn't dodge in time and fell into the crack. The crack suddenly closed the moment it fell.
Then, circles of soil rolled up, as if wrapping around a meatball.
Hideous cracks appeared on the surface of the meatball. The cracks spread wildly in all directions, but soon, more soil surrounded the meatball, crazily squeezing it inwards.
Finally, it turned into a giant meatball with a diameter of at least 50 meters.
The meatball rolled along the newly built mountain path, and finally rolled under Abba's butt. Abba wriggled and sat down.
It was like an old hen in the countryside sitting on an egg.
.....
In the end, the public opinion of this incident was controlled by the Allied Government and the Southern Sky Group.
The Allied Government naturally didn't want this kind of negative news to be spread all over the streets. The Southern Sky Group, who had obtained a Lord-tier monster, also wanted to make a fortune in silence.
After all, the news of the two Emperor-tier familiars hadn't died down yet. Everything had to be done in moderation.
After deliberately collecting information, Gao Peng discovered that not only Yuzhou City, but many places around the world had produced animated statues. Depending on the material of the statue, the animated statues produced had different abilities and characteristics.
The Huan Shan Buddha that Gao Peng was worried about hadn't mutated yet. The Huan Shan Buddha was in Sichuan, which was relatively close to the Shuzhou and Yuzhou base cities.
Although the Huan Shan Buddha wasn't the largest Buddha statue in the Huaxia region, it was definitely in the top five. Most importantly, the Huan Shan Buddha had a history that the other giant statues didn't have.
It had been built since the Tang Dynasty's Kaiyuan Era. After thousands of years of wind and rain, countless believers and tourists came to worship it.
According to the results of the investigation, the Huan Shan Buddha sat at the mouth of the three rivers. Under its feet were the Min River, the Qing Yi River, and the Dadu River.
It was said that before the Huan Shan Buddha was built, there were frequent floods in the three rivers, which harmed the people. After the Buddha was built, the floods subsided.
