Building infrastructure in a digital world

Chapter 509 509. Beast Tide 34
The most important thing is that this statue has eyes!
Normally, no eyes would be added to any statue after it is completed, especially if it is used as a prop for formations.

Because there is a rumor in the Sunset Continent that eyes are the window to the spirituality of any living thing. Items without eyes are just objects. But once eyes are lit, then as time goes by, dead objects will gradually gain spirituality... To put it simply Just being able to 'live' it.

Living things are definitely not as easy to control as dead things, so the props of the formation will not use living things. If the props 'run away' on their own, wouldn't the formation be destroyed?
But the statue in front of him obviously violated the rules for constructing the formation. Not only did it have eyes, but it also had the most sinister red eyes.

It’s not that no one has put their eyes on the array props, but most of them are black and green.

Black is a color common to humans and most creatures on the continent, representing ordinaryness. Green is a natural color, representing gentleness. Eyes of other colors also have their own meanings.

The color red represents cruelty, killing, and evil.

One location is the formation in the black area. There is a statue with dotted eyes in the formation, and the statue's eyes are still black... This is no longer double happiness, this is triple happiness, triple superposition.

Although Su You hadn't checked the information about the statue, she could imagine how difficult it would be for them to destroy the statue.

She sighed quietly in her heart, and then used the detection skill on the statue——

HP: 200000/200000
Attack: 0
Defense: 500
Introduction: A statue carved from the dark stone produced by the abyss. Because the statue is lit with eyes, it becomes spiritual. When the statue is damaged, bad things may happen. In addition, when the statue reaches a certain number At this time, a formation can be formed to nourish dark creatures.

……

After reading the message, Su You got good news and bad news.

The good news is that according to this description, this statue is most likely one of the core statues.

The bad news is also obvious. This statue is beginning to take on a spiritual nature, and something will definitely happen when you fight it later. The process will definitely be different from dealing with those ordinary statues before.

Moreover, the statue's health and defense were both very high. Su You even suspected that the statue's health and defense were weakened by knocking down six statues before.

Even though they have been weakened, the HP is still twice that of an ordinary statue, and the defense is exactly the same as the initial attributes of an ordinary statue. Needless to say, it is difficult.

"Lord Su, this should be one of the core statues." Ning Shi apparently also noticed something wrong with this statue. She spoke softly without letting others hear.

Su You nodded in agreement, then turned around and made some arrangements for everyone.

Because Su You suspected that the statue might be capable of fighting during the fight, she did not ask everyone to surround the statue and attack it this time...

Knowing that this might be a living creature, he still included it in his circle. Isn't this an obvious opportunity for the dark creature to expose himself to enemies from both sides?
Su You would definitely not make this kind of mistake, so she built a low wall next to the statue, and then surrounded it to ensure that the statue could not move, but they could attack the statue with long-range attacks.

If it weren't for the fact that the terrain in the black area couldn't change, Su You decided to dig a hole around the statue.

After everything was ready, Su You didn't hesitate and started to fight. Anyway, he had already reached this point after three escape attempts. Even if he used it once, it would not be a loss.As Meck's fireball landed on the statue, a sharp and piercing cry suddenly came from all around, startling everyone and causing painful torture to their ears.

Seeing this, Gong Yu sat down directly on the spot, hugged the harp and started playing music.

The sound outside was comparable to howling ghosts and wolves, but the music played here ranged from gentle and long to impassioned. The sound was obviously not louder than the sonic attack outside, but it suppressed the howling of the dark creatures outside.

For a time, everyone's ears were liberated.

After all, they are people who have fought against sea monsters. Dark creatures are not professional mental attack monsters. They scream twice, one is to scare them, and the other is to harass them. Now it seems that they have their own BGM, and their own screams cannot be played. It had no effect, so he stopped shouting and rushed out to attack them.

Without mental pollution, everyone got the buff status bonus from the music played by Gong Yu. In addition, before the fight started, Ning Shi also gave each of them a light system buff status - there is a probability of causing damage when attacking. Light elemental damage.

With so many buffs, everyone becomes braver as they fight.

From the seven or eight dark creatures at the beginning, to the dozen or twenty dark creatures that rushed up later, every wave of attacks was perfectly blocked by them.

Seeing that the situation was going well, Su You felt that something was wrong.

"Concentrate on attacking the statue. The number of dark creatures is increasing and their strength is getting stronger. This is their territory and we can't defeat them." Hearing Su You's words, he originally wanted to fight. The group of people who were enjoying themselves suddenly remembered that they seemed to be affected by these dark creatures.

It was obvious that their purpose was to destroy the statue, but due to the continuous appearance of dark creatures, they unknowingly changed their target...

Fortunately, Su You quickly discovered the problem and reminded them, and these people reacted quickly, and then focused their main attack fire on the statue.

As for the dark creatures, they must also be killed, otherwise as the number of dark creatures increases, it will be useless even if they destroy the statues, because they will face countless dark creatures by then.

However, their combat power is still crushing these dark creatures, so it is not difficult to fight.

Just when the statue's health dropped to half, something strange happened. Everyone saw that the statue surrounded by the stone wall seemed to be moving, and the stone wall surrounding it began to shake violently.

Su You recalled the words "beginning to become spiritual" and subconsciously felt a little numb.

You must know that although the dark creatures in this world are a bit more terrifying, they are actually similar to slimes. Even if they can transform, they still follow the appearance template of other creatures.

But this statue is different. I don’t know whether the person who carved the statue did it on purpose or something else. In short, he made this statue look very abstract.

If it's a dead thing, it's okay, it's something that doesn't move. No matter how scary it is, the scary feeling is limited.
