Chapter 808 "The Statue Warriors' Counterattack"

"Watch me!" Zhang Meng shouted, waving his weapon and rushing towards the statue warrior, aiming directly at its knee joint.

"Don't rush too fast!" Ye Li reminded him hastily, "It still has time to react!"

However, Zhang Meng's excitement had already made him dizzy, and he rushed over at full speed, not realizing that the statue warrior's movements suddenly became more rapid. Just as he was about to swing his sword to chop at the joints of the statue, the statue's two swords suddenly turned and instantly chopped down in Zhang Meng's direction!

"Wow! Too fast!" Zhang Meng was so scared that he quickly dodged to the side and almost got his nose cut by the sword energy. He rolled sideways in embarrassment and hid on the other side of the statue.

"You are always so impulsive!" Chu Tian shouted helplessly, swinging his sword to block the attack of the statue warrior, "You have to learn to be calm!"

"I... I was just warming up." Zhang Meng stood up and dusted himself off. "Now I'm ready to fight calmly."

"I hope what you said is true." Qin Feng's eyes were fixed on the statue warrior. He found that its attack speed was not only fast, but also becoming more and more flexible. "We have to find a better way."

"Its defense is very strong. We can't fight it head-on." Ye Li analyzed calmly, "We have to find a way to weaken its defense to have a chance to defeat it."

"Yes! Weaken its defense!" Zhang Meng suggested again, "How about I continue to be the bait to attract its attention, and you guys take the opportunity to attack its weak points?"

"Don't run around this time." Li Xiao said coldly, "Its attack speed is too fast. If you make a mistake again, we may not have time to save you."

Zhang Meng nodded, took out the amulet, and a confident smile flashed across his face, "Don't worry, I have a plan this time!"

Li Xiao glanced at the amulet in Zhang Meng's hand and said, "I hope your amulet can really come in handy."

"Of course!" Zhang Meng laughed, "This is my magic weapon!"

At this moment, the statue warrior attacked them again, swinging its two swords like lightning, so fast that it was almost impossible to see the shadows of the swords.

"Its attack rhythm is getting faster and faster!" Chu Tian was barely able to resist the attack of the statue warrior and seemed a little struggling.

"We have to distract its attention!" Qin Feng said loudly, "We can't let it focus on attacking one person!"

Several people quickly dispersed and each looked for an angle to attack the statue warrior. Zhang Meng was responsible for attracting the statue's firepower from the front. He waved the amulet and shouted, "Come on! I am your biggest opponent!"

The statue warrior's attention was indeed attracted by Zhang Meng. He turned around suddenly and launched a swift attack at him.

Zhang Meng retreated quickly, and the amulet emitted a faint light, but he seemed completely unaware that the weak power was not enough to block the attack of the statue warrior.

"Uh... the amulet may still be 'warming up'..." Zhang Meng muttered awkwardly, then backed away desperately.

"Zhang Meng, stop using the amulet indiscriminately!" Ye Li reminded him from a distance, while drawing the bow and aiming at the joints of the statue warrior. The arrow shot out at a high speed and accurately hit its shoulder.

The statue warrior's movements faltered. Although it was not seriously injured, the slight shaking of its shoulder exposed a weakness.

"It works!" Ye Li exclaimed in surprise, "Its joints seem to be its weak points!"

"I knew it had a flaw!" Zhang Meng laughed, "I'll attack its other joint!"

"Stop messing around!" Li Xiao quickly slashed at the other side of the statue warrior and accurately hit its elbow joint. With a crisp collision sound, the movement of the statue's two swords slowed down again.

Zhang Meng took the opportunity to rush forward from behind the statue, swinging his sword and slashing at its knees. However, just as the sword was about to fall, the statue warrior suddenly turned around and blocked Zhang Meng's attack with the two swords in his hands.

"What?! How can this guy react so quickly?" Zhang Meng yelled, and was almost blown away by the force of the giant sword's counterattack.

"Its movements are obviously faster than before." Qin Feng said calmly, "We haven't completely weakened its defenses. Its core is still functioning."

"Core?" Zhang Meng asked in confusion, "You mean it has a 'core' that controls it?"

Qin Feng nodded. "This kind of statue is usually driven by some kind of core. If we can find that core and destroy it, we can completely destroy the statue."

"Then how do we find its core?" Ye Li asked, dodging the attacks of the statue warriors.

Qin Feng's eyes swept across every part of the statue, and suddenly, his eyes stopped on a tiny rune on the back of the statue.

"Its back! There is a rune there, which might be the entrance to the core!" Qin Feng said loudly.

"I saw it!" Zhang Meng reacted immediately and rushed to the back of the statue again, "I will succeed this time!"

"Don't mess it up again this time." Chu Tian said in a low voice.

Zhang Meng jumped up suddenly, swung his sword at the rune, and chopped it down with force. The sword tip hit the rune accurately, and the statue warrior's body shook violently, and the movement stopped instantly.

"I succeeded!" Zhang Meng shouted happily, "I told you I could do it!"

However, before he could be happy for too long, the statue warrior's body suddenly began to emit a low humming sound. Then, the entire statue began to shake violently, as if it was about to explode.

"Oh no, it's going to self-destruct!" Li Xiao's face changed and he jumped away quickly.

"Retreat quickly!" Qin Feng shouted loudly, and several people quickly evacuated to a safe distance.

The body of the statue warrior quickly fell apart with a violent buzzing sound, and finally fell to the ground with a loud bang, turning into a pile of discarded fragments.

"Wow, that was really thrilling." Zhang Meng breathed a sigh of relief and leaned against the wall, panting. "But we finally won."

"It almost went wrong again this time." Ye Li smiled helplessly, "But fortunately the result is good."

"The result is the most important!" Zhang Meng was very proud. "Besides, I discovered its weakness and hit its core with my own hands."

"Although you did make a crucial attack, you still have to learn to be more steady." Li Xiao said coldly, without a trace of expression on his face.

Zhang Meng scratched his head and said with a smile: "Hey, being steady is your style, and I'm responsible for charging into battle, this is called cooperation!"

"Okay, there's still a long way to go." Qin Feng interrupted their banter and looked towards the other end of the hall, where the stone door had slowly opened, revealing a passage leading to deeper depths.

"This should be the last door." Ye Li whispered, with a hint of anticipation and nervousness in her tone.

"Let's go, new adventures are waiting for us." Qin Feng walked towards the passage.

Zhang Meng followed closely behind with an excited smile on his face, "I can feel a greater challenge every time. This is the real fun of exploration!"

"You'd better stop messing around." Chu Tian said with a smile, "This adventure is not over yet."

Several people walked into the passage, and the light in the passage illuminated their way forward. Although the road ahead was still unknown, their hearts were filled with hope and courage.

"New challenges are waiting for us." Qin Feng said softly.

"Don't worry, we will definitely win." Zhang Meng said confidently, his voice echoing in the passage.
