From Demon Hunter to Lord of the Empire

Chapter 81: Gargoyles Output MVP for Enemies (4th change in the morning, 2nd change in the afternoon)

Everyone looked in the direction Geralt was pointing, and there was darkness in front of them. They don’t have Geralt’s night vision.

The druid said bitterly: “Press the stone? So far, so high? How about Geralt, you put a few more fire-breathing seals to show me the direction, and I try to manipulate the wall grass to press the stone? ”

Lane patted the druid on the shoulder: “Don’t bother so much. ”

He turned his gaze to Geralt: “We just need a good enough crossbowman.” ”

Geralt had already observed the distance of several stones in the dark, silently calculating the angle in his heart.

After a breath, the demon hunter removed the crossbow he was carrying behind him, pulled the trigger, and a crossbow arrow “swooped” into the darkness.

With the sound of crossbow arrows hitting hard objects breaking, followed by a “bang bang” spring and the friction of stone moving, it was clear that some mechanism had been triggered in the darkness.

“There are really mechanical stones that can be moved. Rann heard the soldier exclaim incredulously.

“He actually found stones protruding from the rock wall in such a dark place. ”

“You can still shoot! ”

The soldiers lamented the Demon Hunter’s amazing abilities, while Geralt expressionlessly reloaded his arrows.

After the last mechanism was in place, the brick-wall-like door in front of it began to vibrate slowly, slowly lifting up in a dull “rumbling” sound, revealing the passage behind.

“Ha, it worked. A soldier quietly gave Geraltby a thumbs up.

The road ahead was very uneven, and the road was littered with scattered stones and fragments of some sculptures, which seemed to have undergone small landslides. There are no stairs, and many of the climbs that need to be climbed require several people to work together to continue on.

After walking nearly a hundred meters forward, a hall suddenly appeared in front of everyone’s eyes.

The druid looked around and nodded: “This place is interesting, it seems that the design people have put a lot of thought into it, and they should look around.” ”

It is a hall with a round vault, divided into two floors, which can probably accommodate forty or fifty people at the same time. It seems too simple to say that this is a palace, but to say that it is a hall is sorry for the magical and artistic decorations inside.

In the middle of the hall is a three-person tall statue with rounded lines, but the face cannot be seen clearly. The abutment at the foot is also potholed and rocky.

On the abutment was placed a small box the size of a palm, and when you opened it, you could see a gold necklace inside. There was a skeleton lying next to it, and several pieces of Oren and Krone were found on it.

There is also a small altar in front of the statue with an oddly shaped altar.

The top of the statue’s head is the very top of the dome, from which there are minimalist striped carvings. Once on the ground, the striped carvings overlap each other and indent to form small compartments for stone statues.

And inside each cubicle, there is a devil-like stone statue with a big belly.

The stone statue is about one person tall, with two horns, canine teeth and a fierce face, only two palm-sized wings on its back, bloated upper limbs, and stubby lower limbs.

Looking at the two decorative wings, Schild commented: “They must not fly.” ”

The druid stepped forward to take a closer look, and his face gradually became wrong: “These seem to… It’s all gargoyles. A monster created by a warlock infusing magic into a stone statue. ”

Hearing that it was a monster, everyone’s expressions became serious, and they looked around, but there were ten stone statues in the room.

“Are they strong? ”

Geralt also knew more about such monsters, even better than the druids, and replied, “They are difficult to hurt with a sword.” The materials of gargoyles are mostly granite and marble, and their defense is amazing, their strength is extremely large, and their heavy armor is difficult to match their punches. They can also throw large stones to kill enemies.

In addition, they can also teleport over short distances, which may suddenly appear behind or directly above the enemy. ”

Every time Geralt said something, everyone’s expressions became solemn, only Rann seemed to have expected it, and he was not so close to the enemy.

“But they certainly have weaknesses, right? ”

Jellot nodded: “They are stupid, and Axifa is ineffective against them.” Silver can hurt them, and Demon Blocking Gold can also disrupt their magical kinetic energy. ”

Lane said, “You’re using a sword, and since they’re all made of marble and granite, something that can destroy marble and granite can also destroy them, right?” ”

Geralt hesitated and nodded.

Rann turned back to the soldiers: “Change weapons, use a hammer, go on.” Smash them one by one, don’t give them a chance to wake up! ”

This is the purpose of Rann asking the soldiers to carry hammers – to face the hard guys who may encounter such as gargoyles and golems that are not made of flesh and blood!

The soldiers dispersed, and the sound of “boom” suddenly echoed in this hall. One stone statue after another was shattered head-on, and then several hammers smashed on the body and completely shattered into stones.

Rann fears that the key to this thing as a gargoyle is not on his head, and insists that it be safe in pieces.

“Aaaaa ”

After clearing a large number of motionless stone statues, a gargoyle suddenly rumbled from its abdomen, its voice low and ear-shattering.

It opened its eyes and suddenly saw five or six hammerheads coming towards it at the same time.

For gargoyles, magic theorists are still arguing about how to classify gargoyles. For example, some people claim that they are a type of golem, because gargoyles are just eccentric statues driven by magic to do simple errands, and they can only do the most basic work.

Simply put, they are too stupid, too slow to react, and even if they have certain magical skills, they are very rigid to use, and they don’t even have the opportunity to use them.

The magic creation that had just roared was quickly smashed off its head by a hammer cast by humans. All it outputs when it wakes up is a roar.

With tacit understanding and already familiar with the soldiers, they regularly “bangbang” a few times, completely shattering the gargoyle’s entire body.

They had just been taken aback by the sudden roar.

“Sure enough, there will be movable ones. Lane asked, “This is the last one, right?” ”

Everyone looked around, and all the stone statues had become fragments, making this already very simple hall from “shabby” to a little more “war damage” smell.

Geralt routinely stepped forward to touch the corpse, and the materials that can be produced by this magical creation are generally more advanced, and can collect elemental essence and gargoyle’s dust, which can be used to enchant equipment.

The druids also stepped forward to take away the gargoyle’s heart, gargoyles are quite valuable in the magic circle, and just now when Rann smashed them, the druids kept twitching out of their eyes in distress.
