When the MDT flew into the air for reconnaissance, Hao Ren began to pay attention to the movements of the 'stone statues'. Until this time, the MDT was still flying high in the sky, and the movements of the black colossi were completely presented to him like chess pieces on a chessboard. In the process of observation, Hao Ren found one thing:
There were temples of all sizes everywhere in the ancient city, and almost every temple had a stone statue army gathering outside. But the grand temple in the center of the ancient city was calm, and the stone statues gathered from the other end of the city seemed to deliberately bypass the grand temple in the center of the city when they surrounded this side — they would not even set foot on the giant stone stairs leading to the grand temple.
Was the grand temple some kind of 'forbidden area' for these stone statues?
Although it was not known if these stone statues would continue to obey this' prohibition 'after the invaders broke into the grand temple, at least for now, it seemed that the grand temple was the only safe place in the entire ancient city.
To get there, they had to first pass through the increasing number of stone statues around the grand temple.
Hao Ren told the others about his discovery, and almost without much discussion, everyone reached a consensus: go to the grand temple!
The MDT hovered over the city, constantly sending the bird 's-eye view of the front to the holographic projection in front of Hao Ren like a probe satellite. A' best path 'that could avoid most of the colossi was clearly marked in the projection. Although it was still inevitable to encounter small groups of enemies, before reaching the grand temple, they could at least avoid the embarrassment of being surrounded by guards to the greatest extent.
The team began to move in the direction of the grand temple.
Vivian flew a few meters above the ground. Two swarms of bats formed two huge horizontal vortexes, like a pair of giant wings spinning on both sides behind her. Electric sparks burst and jumped among the bats, producing a powerful electric field that made people's scalp tingle. She was charging the next wave of magnetic storms, and this powerful swarm of bats could also release lightning strikes at any time to deal with the stone statues that appeared alone.
"Two hundred meters ahead. Turn left. There are twelve Stone Soldiers gathered there. We can't go around them. Let's f * cking shoot them, partner!"
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation The MDT's navigation prompt rang in Hao Ren's mind. The first half of the sentence was professional and accurate, but the second half was a lot of nonsense. However, Hao Ren had no time to argue with the PDA because he could already see the black stone statues from afar.
The old granite buildings on both sides of the street collapsed. One after another, huge black stone statues stepped onto the broken slabs and pillars like Titans climbing Mount Olympus. The moment they appeared, two dazzling electric arcs descended from the sky and bombarded the chest of the first statue at the same time.
The black shell on the chest of the Stone Guardian cracked into countless pieces. The colossal body of the Stone Guardian shook violently, but in the next second, it stood up straight again.
There was a terrifying crack in the chest of this stone statue, but the protective shell at the core had not been completely penetrated.
It seemed that simple lightning did not have a good effect on these stone statues. Their shells had excellent insulation.
The stone statue raised its head, and a pair of blood-red lights lit up on its crocodile-like head. It seemed to let out a silent roar, then raised the iron staff in its hand and pointed it at Vivian who was flying in the air. A dazzling energy ball quickly condensed at the end of the iron staff.
However, before the energy ball could be launched, a blue beam of light suddenly hit the Stone Guardian's body. The beam itself was only as thick as a thumb, but when it came into contact with the target, it exploded violently. Amidst the light, the Stone Guardian exploded and turned into blue crystal dust that covered the entire sky.
Hao Ren raised his pistol and aimed at the torso of another stone statue. At the same time, he pressed the combination safety button of the Magnetic Oscillation Grenade in his other hand. As he threw the grenade, he shouted, "Be careful! One of the Stone Soldiers that can use magic has appeared! "
Hessiana spread a pair of bat wings behind her and flew into the air. The blood-red whip in her hand was dripping with corrosive blood that could melt gold and iron. She waved the whip and wrapped it around the spear in the hand of a colossus. She pulled hard and the spear broke in the middle with a sizzling sound. Little Bat looked up and shouted down, "There are more colossi coming from other streets!"
The MDT had also processed the map of the battlefield in time. The holographic projection floating next to Hao Ren showed a clear street model. A large number of red dots were moving between the streets, rushing toward the place where they were fighting.
"Sure enough, these guys have a unified command!" Y 'zaks just glanced at the map and saw the clues. "And they are blocking the path we have chosen before. Are we under surveillance?"
Just as Hao Ren was about to say something, he heard a meow coming from the side. Then, a petite body bumped into his back. Rollie, who was fighting with a colossus, could not dodge in time and was kicked by Rollie.
The cat girl's injury was not serious, but she would not be able to continue fighting for a while.
And Hao Ren again saw the almost transparent phantoms escaping from the bodies of the fallen Stone Guardians.
Souls? Or something else?
"Do you see those shadows?" Hao Ren pointed to a stone statue that had just been punched to pieces by Lily. "When the stone statues fall, some shadows will float out of their bodies!"
Y 'zaks' eyes widened. "Shadows? What shadows? "
Hao Ren was startled. Only he could see them?
But he soon forgot about it. Anyway, he had experienced countless unexplainable unique phenomena, and now he did not care about the opening of the Inner Eye. He just said his guess aloud, "I can see that after each stone statue falls, something like a soul floats out of their bodies, and the things that float out seem to be connected as one 'further away'. That thing is probably the reason why these Stone Guardians can move in unison!"
"Higher souls? Using the superior mind network to control the golems? " The demon girl sitting on Y 'zaks' shoulder immediately thought of the familiar domain. "Uncle Ren, can you see where the things that float out gather?"
* Boom! *
A deafening explosion came from nearby. The two 'lightning turbines' behind Vivian were getting brighter and brighter, and a huge electric arc shot out. The electric arc of this level finally directly penetrated the insulating shell of a Stone Guardian and blew it into pieces.
And Hao Ren immediately captured the transparent phantom that escaped from the Stone Guardian.
It floated up into the air and drifted in the direction of the temple in the center of the city. As it drifted away, it became more and more transparent and illusory, and soon even Hao Ren could not see it clearly. But before that, Hao Ren could roughly determine that the 'shadow' had indeed risen to a height of about four or five hundred meters and combined with a larger transparent phantom.
It was as if there was an invisible 'jellyfish' floating in mid-air, and the jellyfish was retracting its tentacles.
"That direction!" Hao Ren raised his finger and pointed to the position where the transparent phantom finally dissipated. "There's something there! It's floating over the city, and I'm afraid it covers at least a third of the city! "
Y 'lisabet nodded, and then carefully observed the distribution of the colossus on the bird' s-eye view sent by the MDT, as well as the movement pattern of the colossus on the nearby streets, and began to do some quick mental calculations.
Lily rushed over with the smell of stone and wiped her face in front of Hao Ren. "Mr. Landlord, what is Y 'lisabet doing?"
"She seems to be able to figure out the operating rules of these Stone Guardians," said Hao Ren. "The Stone Guardians should have a higher-level command system. We have to find a way to interfere with this system."
"Then you'd better hurry," said Lily as she picked up a half-ton slate from the side and smashed it hard at a black colossus not far away. "It seems that another wave of stone people is coming! Our progress is getting slower and slower! "
"Don't worry," said Hao Ren, confident in Y 'lisabet. "She's an expert in golems."
* Boom! *
A nearby building suddenly collapsed violently. The granite wall collapsed, and a huge stone hand emerged from behind. Then, one by one, the colossus climbed over the high wall and landed on the street.
The bats behind Vivian let out a shrill cry, and the increasingly intense electromagnetic vortex began to spin in the two storms. Everyone at the scene felt a slight tingling on their skin: a new electromagnetic storm was ready.
At this time, Y 'lisabet finally finished her mental calculation. She raised her finger and pointed to a certain position in the sky. "In that direction! Throw the electromagnetic storm in that direction! "
Vivian did not hesitate at all. The electromagnetic vortex produced by the two groups of bats had turned into a dazzling stream of light, which was more powerful than the electromagnetic explosion she had created in the temple before. Just before the two rotating electric fields were about to get out of control, she drove her magic and threw them directly in the direction Y 'lisabet had pointed out.
Lightning and a strong magnetic field broke out at high altitude at the same time — this was definitely a powerful EMP.
The colossus was extremely resistant to simple electric shocks, but the oscillating electric field produced a strong magnetic field, which was enough to immobilize the stone people.
And at the same time that the massive electromagnetic storm broke out in the sky, a previously hidden thing finally emerged in front of everyone.
