Chapter 126: Puppet Guard

In Finn's dark eyes, the four enemies that walked into his field of vision from the depths of the corridor revealed the outline of a human, a faint blue glow from their respective eye sockets, but the exterior that enveloped their bodies was not soft biological skin, but a body of armor from head to toe.

The four blue-eyed unidentified creatures stood in a 2x2 matrix and marched in an orderly manner towards where Finn was, the two in front of them held a shield in their left hand and a sword in their right hand, one of the two in the back wore a quiver at his waist and a short bow in his hand, and the last one held a two-handed hammer in both hands, and the armor that wrapped around his body was draped in a gray tattered cloak compared to the other three companions, showing that it clearly displayed a unique identity and status in the team.

"Oh my God, what are these guys?" As the four blue-eyed creatures gradually walked into the slightly brighter light, Countess Callea also saw their appearance clearly, and her heart suddenly became a little uneasy.

The Countess and her fellow explorers were not good at fighting, and they instinctively sensed that the four men who were about to come out of the corridor were ill-intentioned towards them, and they all looked at Finn, Lilith, Camussa, Arya, Leah and Terkes, who were standing in front of them, and pinned all their hopes for their safety on the guards who had promised to protect them during the exploration.

The guards of the exploration team kept behind them the objects they had agreed to protect, and Finn stood at the front of the six and used the [Elementary Insight] specialty to observe the four blue-eyed creatures in the corridor, and his retina quickly refreshed the following information about the four enemies in just a second:

【Puppet Warrior (11)?】 /? 】

【Puppet Warrior (11)?】 /? 】

[Puppet Shooter (10)?] /? 】

【Puppet Craftsman (13)?】 /? 】

"Sure enough, it's still the puppet guard on the upper level of the ruins, and it's no different from what I remember." Finn looked at the group of blue-eyed creatures he glanced at, and sighed a little relief to himself, thinking that this ruin had fortunately not undergone the same unexpected changes as the carrion that should have existed beneath the Merlor pit.

Regarding the [Demon Puppet], this kind of creature can barely be said to be a creature, but in fact, the body is composed of a magical configuration mecha, and the mechanical life form does not have the physical body similar to most living creatures, but it has a very weak sense of self.

Tracing the history of the Third Age of Feldia, Finn knows that the world's first puppet was created by the half-elf witch king White of the Third Age. The half-elf witch king White Astøwell Silvermoon sits on the Tower of Babel, and plans the desert within a radius of ten miles around the Tower of Babel as his own territory, regards the puppets he makes in large quantities as his own people, and lets the high-level puppets manage the books in the tower, let the middle-level puppets manage the order outside the tower, and let the low-level puppets be under the command of the middle-level puppets and will always be tirelessly busy, until the end of the Third Age, the Witch King White and his tower country will disappear in the dust of history.

Lilith's translation of information from Glens's transcription of Babel notes designated the ruins in front of her as the dwarven ruins that kept the obsidian codex, and Fein finally figured out why he encountered puppet guards in the ruins when he led a team to explore here in his previous life.

But fortunately, the historical background of the puppet guards is long, but their combat ability is uneven, and the four-person puppet guards in front of the young people have long lost the prestige of their ancestors when they directly served the witch king White in the history of the Third Age, and their character level is only a little more than 11 on average, and it is just right for Finn and his party to come to challenge in the current situation.

So, even though Terkes and Leah didn't dare to act rashly for a while because they couldn't figure out the details of each other, Finn was still ready to take advantage of the fact that he had not yet entered the range of the puppet shooter's short bow to launch a first attack on the four puppet guards who had not yet stepped out of the corridor, and then took a step back with his sword to leave a small space in front of him, turned his head sideways and instructed Lilith: "Lilith, fireball technique." ”

"Hmm." Lilith clicked, and immediately lifted the staff of the wolf soul in her left hand and pointed it at the corridor, the fire flashed at the tip of her staff, and a terrifying fireball immediately roared into the corridor that was the entrance to the ruins.

The moment the fireball blasted into the corridor, the two puppet warriors in front of the queue raised their shields to try to protect the puppet shooter and puppeteer behind them, but their shields couldn't stop the large fireball that Lilith blasted at them, and the wizard craftsmen who had designed them to guard the place in the past obviously failed to make them strong enough, so that they fell to the ground after the explosion caused by the fireball hitting them head-on in the corridor, and the metal armor on their bodies was charred and blackened.

Half an hour later, among the four puppet guards that fell, the dark blue light in the eyes of two puppet warriors and one puppet shooter was dimmed, and the experience value of the two puppet warriors and one puppet shooter fused into Finn's game system on time at the moment when the blue light in their eyes went out, proving that Lilith's magic attack was deadly, and she directly took away three of their four puppet guards.

The embers detonated by the fireball spell were still faintly burning on the surviving puppeteer. The puppeteer's level, magic resistance, and health were a little higher than that of its three companions, and at this time, it was half-kneeling on the stone brick floor in the corridor, and stood up from the ground with the hammer in his hand, and then raised the hammer in his hand over his shoulder, posing as if it was about to smash the remains of a puppet warrior at its feet.

In fact, the Puppeteer is indeed the equivalent of a priest in the human ranks to the other puppet soldiers. Most of the time, the hammer in the puppeteer's hand is not used for hand-to-hand combat, but is mostly used to hit the damaged puppet companions, so that the arcane energy in the magic hammer flows into the bodies of other puppet soldiers through contact, thereby accelerating the self-healing speed of their own bodies - or rather, accelerating their self-repair of their mechanical bodies.

The puppet craftsman who survived the explosion of the fireball technique held the hammer high, but although Arya in Finn's team couldn't see through what it wanted to do, the elf girl saw that the enemy who was only holding the hammer high in front of her eyes showed such a big flaw in front of her, and she didn't intend to give it another chance to smash the hammer down, so she immediately raised a large crossbow that was untied from her back a second ago and held in her hand, aiming at its head was a magic arrow with the [Air] attribute attached to the [Magic Catapult Archer] specialty.

Magical arrows infused with wind have more piercing power than normal arrows. Although the volume of the large crossbow that Finn helped Arya buy from Orlan was far from the giant crossbow that Arya used before, the magic arrows shot by the witcher elf girl at this time were more than enough to make up for the knife, and the broken iron helmet head of the puppeteer craftsman in the corridor was pierced by the wind-attached arrow in the next second, and then the neck was crooked and fell backwards, and the magic hammer fell from its iron-covered hand to the stone brick floor, making a heavy "bang" sound.
