Chapter 22: The Stone Statue

The central tower of the castle is mainly a resting place, and dozens of rooms can be seen when you enter.

Shen Yi and Wen Wen glanced at each other, nodded to each other, and walked to both sides.

They began to inspect room by room, trying to find something out of it.

Perhaps because of their age, most of the rooms are dilapidated. The house was full of dust and cobwebs. Some tables and chairs tend to collapse at the slightest touch.

Shen Yi pushed open a few doors and looked at them, but he didn't find anything and retreated again, walking to the next door.

Just as he was about to push the door, there was a sudden bang inside.

Shen Yi instinctively flashed to the side, and a black shadow had already grazed Shen Yi's whistling past. At the same time as the black shadow swept past Shen Yi, the vampire touch in Shen Yi's left hand suddenly reversed and slashed towards the black shadow.

The dagger was like a blade that split the sky, drawing a long line of blood, and at the same time that the black shadow completely rushed out, it had already opened a long bloody wound on the opponent's body.

It was a giant black wolf.

In the belly of the giant wolf, a line of blood was flowing.

"Whew!" the black wolf let out a terrible roar.

Shen Yi had already turned around, and the vampire's touch was heavily pierced into the black wolf's head, and the skill blood waterfall was activated!

The black wolf that hit this time flew up, jumped into the air in a hurry, and ran a few steps on the ceiling, Shen Yi flicked his right wrist, and the moon shooting spear hit the black wolf continuously, as if it had eyes, no matter how it jumped, it couldn't dodge.

"Armor-piercing bullets!" With Shen Yi's cold voice, two armor-piercing bullets passed through the black wolf's head, and the black giant wolf fell down with a wail, and finally fell to the ground and died.

"You have more dishes than I thought you would. Shen Yi glanced coldly at the corpse of the black wolf, and then walked towards the room.

The room was a mess, and it was clear that it had once been an adventurer's bedroom. There was a bed in the bedroom, and leaning against the side of the bed was a collapsed dresser. Perhaps because of the wolf's den, the whole room has become a mess, but it can still be vaguely seen that the owner of this room was once a woman.

The black wolf occupied by Nestle obviously did not know how to respect the former owner, and made the whole room into a miasma, and the former utensils became toys, all over the floor.

A small book with a black leather cover lay quietly on the ground, gnawed, the paper shattered, and only occasionally showed signs of writing.

Shen Yi tore up the small notebook and flipped through it casually, but he only saw that it was full of stains, and he couldn't see any content.

He sighed and threw the notebook away.

Moving on, searching all the way, I finally met Gentle at the end of the circular corridor.

"Did you find anything?" asked Shen Yi.

Gently shook his head: "Time is the best weapon of annihilation, and those damn beasts are the most bastard on-site people, even if there is anything that can explain all this, it has long been annihilated by the combination of the two." ”

Shen Yi smiled bitterly and nodded: "That's right." The only thing we know now is that this place has existed for at least a hundred years, well, counting the time, it's about the same as the Ash City. ”

"Since the original adventurers could create a city of ashes, it is not unusual to create a castle. "We are not archaeologists after all, so we don't always have to chase the past history." ”

Shen Yi said lightly: "History is the best mirror, and only those who know the past can know the future." ”

"You already know a lot about the past. ”

"It's not enough. ”

Shen Yi strode past Wen Wen's side.

At the end of the corridor, there is a stone statue.

The statue was not depicted with God Jesus or anything else, but of a warrior in armor and armed with a great sword.

The samurai's appearance is majestic, and his gaze is solemn, looking straight ahead.

Shen Yi stood in front of the stone statue and observed carefully, his brows suddenly furrowed.

"What's wrong? have you found anything?" asked Gentle.

"There shouldn't be a stone statue. Shen Yi said.

"What?" was gentle and puzzled.

Shen Yi pointed to the statue and said, "I said this thing shouldn't exist." Remember, outside the tower I said that the castle was built for the needs of survival, so any extra decoration is meaningless to the adventurer...... For adventurers, art is a luxury. ”

Gentle eyes lit up: "You mean ......"

"There's something wrong with this statue. Shen Yi smiled: "I only hope now that if it has any secrets, then after a hundred years, it can still play a role." ”

"I'll try. Gentleness strode forward.

She looked left and right at the statue, and when she found nothing behind it, she began to try to turn it.

In this turn, there was indeed a reaction.

Only a few sharp sounds were heard.

Shen Yi's face changed greatly: "Gentle dodge!"

I saw a few small black arrows suddenly shot out from under the stone statue, pointing directly at Gentleness.

Gently and violently, the small arrow almost grazed her face, and a few strands of long hair slammed into the distant gate, and even shot a large hole in the steel wall.

This astonishing power frightened Shen Yi and Wen Rou for a moment.

Looking blankly at the hole left by the small arrow, he said gently: "Thanks to your auspicious words, at least it is still working, isn't it?"

Shen Yi smiled bitterly: "Yes, leave it to me next." ”

Continue to turn the statue, and this time, no arrows were shot from the statue.

It was only as the stone statue moved that a pitch-black hole appeared below.

――――――――――――

"Hold on a little longer, there's a steel factory ahead!" the fat man shouted.

After making their way through the Ant Hill, the makeshift team quickly entered the West 2nd District.

All the way, finally to the target location.

The steel factory is a famous dangerous place in the West End.

It's said to be a factory, but it's more like a large military base.

There are no monsters in the base, only endless mechanical monsters, including those like the T800.

No organic life is allowed in the vicinity of the entire steel plant, only artificial intelligence, which rules everything here.

At this moment, when he came to this vast flat land, the fat man stopped and pointed to the huge black steel fortress in front of him:

"The control range of the steel plant is centered on the factory and radiates one kilometer around. In other words, from here, as soon as we don't go far, we'll start preparing to withstand the attacks of the robots or mechanical monsters here. We must make our way through the factory-controlled area before we can bring the Imprisoned Sons to clash with the robots here. ”

He looked back at everyone: "I don't need to say that everyone knows the danger." Now everyone lies down and rests first, and when the strength is almost recovered, we start to attack. ”

The four of them lay down one after another, for them, this long journey was indeed too hard. Seeing that the steel plant is about to be attacked, every minute of rest needs to be grasped.

However, for a fat man with extremely high attributes, he has no problem. In order to wait for a few other people along the way, he didn't run with all his strength at all, so there was no excessive physical exertion.

Amber noticed that the fat man was not lying down and asked, "Aren't you resting?"

The fat man smiled: "I'm going to observe the situation ahead and see how the other party reacts and what route is best for us to take." ”

Amber was stunned: "It's too dangerous, isn't it?"

The fat man shook his head: "My agility is higher than all of you, if even I can't pass through the factory control area, then you can't get by, so don't worry about me." ”

"But ......"

"It's nothing, now I'm the captain, you can rest. "The fat man is already walking forward.

I have to say that the butt decides the head, which is indeed a wise saying.

Where people sit, they will have a different way of thinking.

In the past, the fat man was just an ordinary team member, and he would not take the lead and explore the way for the team members if he was killed.

But since he became the captain, many things have become problems that he has to consider.

He began to try to think like Shen Yi.

Fortunately, after following Shen Yi for so long, he has also learned some of Shen Yi's work habits.

Observe, gather information, analyze information, probe, revise the plan, and finally execute it with all your might. At least this set of work processes as a captain has long been familiar and mastered by him.

Maybe he will never be able to do better than Shen Yi, but at least he already knows what to do and works hard to do it well.

That's the biggest improvement for fat people.

When he returns to the team one day, he will no longer be the fat man he used to be.

At this moment, Luo Hao stepped forward alone, and as he went deeper and deeper into the control area, the alarm of the steel factory finally began to sound.

A force of about thirty robots was the first to burst out of the factory, compared to the T800, they had no anthropomorphic skin, and even bare/exposed wires could be seen inside the steel shell, and the electronic eyes flashed brightly, but the submachine guns were held in their hands.

As soon as these robots appeared, they ran towards the fat man, they were not fast, but as soon as they appeared, they pulled out a fan and rushed towards the fat man, so that the fat man had to smash through the middle of their team if he wanted to pass through the factory-controlled area.

"Luo Hao be careful!" Amber shouted from behind.

The fat man turned back and smiled at Amber for a moment, bringing out a bit of tragedy, and then turned his head and rushed towards the steel robots.

No matter how powerful the steel factory is, at least he doesn't care about these robots at most level 600 in front of him.

casually put a mental power shield on his body, and the fat man slammed into a robot with a rain of bullets, and his bloated body was like a cannonball, crashing into the arms of the robot, knocking the robot out of the air.

Then the fat man stopped and continued to rush forward, and behind him was a large number of robots chasing after him, and the bullets kept shooting on the mental power shield, shooting round after round of colored light.

"Speed 25, bullet attack power 12, able to pass. The fat man ran with his head down and secretly calculated.

So far, at least, the mechanical warriors sent out by the steel factory have not caused him any trouble.

Just as he crossed the 500-meter range, the alarm in the factory suddenly sounded again.

A new round of interdiction forces rushed out of the factory.

It's a motorcycle hunter in the world of Terminators!

"Damn!" the fat man scolded.

I didn't expect that there would be motorcycle hunters in the steel factory, and the fat man ran wildly.

But instead of running backwards, he continued to push forward.

He must know what kind of guards or pursuers will appear here when he is completely close to the steel plant.

Only when he has all the information can he make a comprehensive response, and before that, he must first put himself at risk.

――――――――――――

PS:

Recently, a friend said that these chapters of the story are a bit watery.

Honestly, I felt it too.

Writing a book is a long-term process.

Sometimes we're in the highs, and sometimes we're in the lows.

However, no matter the highs or lows, we can't stop.

Of course, on the other hand, it has to do with the nature of writing itself.

Sometimes we have to think about a lot of things in a work.

Often when I think about it, I unconsciously get into a certain horn tip, and I can't get out for a while.

For example, when it comes to the pace of this book, I often remind myself to speed up the pace.

But when I am always writing and writing, I will unconsciously fall into a certain extreme, and even forget what I told myself.

Therefore, I would like to say that I don't know how other people are, maybe my works also have water, but it is not water for water's sake, but in the process of writing, one of them did not pay attention and accidentally went astray, just like singing.

But fortunately, there is always a time to pull it back.

So I've put my criticism on this issue to the top as a reminder.

I try my best to write the article well, if there is an occasional bad, please believe that fate will never go on forever, but will be corrected immediately.

I can't guarantee that my subsequent articles will never go wrong, but I promise that if there is a problem, I will try to correct it.
