Chapter 614: Beauty Statue (Subscription Request)

A corridor leads to the interior of the temple.

The five-foot-wide corridor is filled with ceramic statues, blocking the way forward.

All these white and delicate porcelain statues are in the shape of curly-haired beauties, wearing long skirts that drag on the ground, with charming and slender bodies, similar in height to adult human women, and much taller than the dwarf statues seen on the street before.

The statues have beautiful faces that resemble humans, but a little observation will reveal that the curly hair is in the shape of small snakes, grinning, and looks evil, which makes people get goose bumps.

It can be seen that these statues are all made by the snake-haired demon Patra according to her own image.

Jiang Feng drew out his rapier and tentatively knocked on the nearest snake-haired demon porcelain statue, which made a crisp echo.

"This porcelain sculpture is hollow."

Then, she shot the porcelain sculpture's head with a shot, and the inside was indeed hollow.

"This is the normal porcelain sculpture craftsmanship." Ma Yun commented.

Jiang Feng used his rapier to knock on another porcelain sculpture next to him, and the knocking sound was obviously duller than the previous one.

"This statue... seems to be solid."

Jiang Feng looked strange.

"So she was once a living person, and she became a porcelain sculpture after being stared at by Patra, just like those poor porcelain dwarfs on the street?" The Tin Man speculated.

Jiang Feng shook his head and said nothing.

"There is only one Patra in the world, and she can't turn herself into a porcelain sculpture." The scarecrow murmured softly, "Unless the original owner of this porcelain sculpture had a figure and appearance exactly like Patra when she was alive."

"In addition to this situation, there is another possibility." Ma Yun added, "First use magic to turn ordinary people, such as any resident in the city, into the appearance of Patra, and then petrify them into a porcelain sculpture."

"The method you pointed out is more feasible, smart wizard lady. After all, it is difficult to find someone who looks exactly like you, but it is easier to turn someone into your own appearance, and it is easy to operate in batches."

The scarecrow pointed to the depths of the corridor.

"Look, this corridor is full of identical porcelain sculptures, at least hundreds of them, and all of them look like Patra. Even if only a small part of them are transformed from living people, it still requires mass-produced cosmetic technology."

"What's the point of analyzing it? After all, isn't it just a porcelain statue? No matter whether it is hollow or solid, since it is blocking our way, just push it away."

The lion raised its front paw impatiently and pushed the solid porcelain statue that Jiang Feng had just found aside.

Bang!

The porcelain statue fell to the ground and broke into two pieces.

Something seemed to be squirming in the fragments, which immediately alerted Jiang Feng, and he raised his pistol without thinking.

Just under the muzzle of the gun, a skeleton Tengu crawled out of the broken porcelain statue, raised its crow-like head, and stared at the outsiders fiercely, with pale soul fire flickering in its eye sockets.

Bang! Bang!

Jiang Feng fired two shots in a row, knocking down the Skeleton Tengu before it pounced on him.

Nick added a "Holy Fire Technique" to completely destroy the skeleton.

"It seems that we all guessed wrong. The porcelain statue is not solid, but there is a skeleton Tengu hidden inside the hollow statue."

The Tin Man stated calmly.

"So I said, what's the point of you thinking so much? Just do it!" The Lion laughed.

"This incident shows that our smart friends are sometimes misled by their own smarts." The Tin Man said sarcastically.

The Scarecrow rubbed his cheeks awkwardly, and was glad that he was not given the ability to blush and be ashamed by his creator.

In fact, he really wanted to explore whether these Tengu were still alive when they were sealed in the porcelain statues?

But thinking of the sarcasm of the Lion and the Tin Man, he was embarrassed to waste everyone's time on such details.

To enter the central hall of the temple, you must pass through this corridor full of ceramic statues.

The enemy hidden inside the porcelain statue is undoubtedly a threat, and it is necessary to carefully eliminate it.

Lion suggested that smashing all the porcelain statues is indeed the safest way.

It is too troublesome to smash them one by one, Gao Fei has a more efficient blasting method.

Waving his hand to signal his companions to retreat, Gao Fei stood alone in front of the closely arranged porcelain sculptures, raised his hand and blasted out the "Thunder Wave".

The rumbling thunder echoed in the narrow and closed corridor.

All the porcelain sculptures within 15 feet on the opposite side were blasted to pieces.

The skeleton Tengu hiding in the statue was regarded as one with the porcelain sculpture, and also suffered double damage caused by the thunder wave, and all of them were blown up with broken arms and legs.

Jiang Feng and others standing behind Gao Fei took the opportunity to attack together and killed the severely injured skeleton Tengu one by one in the pile of broken porcelain.

After clearing this wave of monsters, Ma Yun said to Gao Fei: "Brother Fei! My psychic necklace has a spell to detect undead creatures. Maybe I can see whether there is a skeleton tengu hidden inside the porcelain statue through the shell."

"Okay, richest man, just try to cast the spell."

Ma Yun activated the energy stored in the necklace and cast the 1st level spell "Detect Undead", and his pupils showed a faint silver luster.

The field of view radius of "Detect Undead" is 120 feet. As long as Ma Yun stays focused, he can see whether there are undead creatures in the field of view, whether the other party is an invisible incorporeal ghost or hiding inside a hollow statue.

"Oh! I see the negative energy fluctuations of undead creatures!"

Ma Yun jumped excitedly and pointed out the porcelain sculptures where the skeleton tengu hid to Gao Fei one by one.

Gao Fei ordered Pearl to use the "telekinetic ray" to pull up one of the porcelain sculptures, smash it to the ground, and smash it to pieces.

In the porcelain debris, there was indeed a skeleton lying. Before it could get up, it was cut in half by the iron man's axe.

The test results proved that this trick worked.

Next, Gao Fei could save magic power.

Only when the porcelain sculptures hidden by the skeleton tengu were piled up together, he would use the "thunder wave" to smash them together.

The scattered porcelain statues were smashed by Pearl remotely, and it was over when he pulled them out and killed them.

It took nearly a quarter of an hour to finally clear a passage.

At the end of the corridor, there was a tightly closed stone door.

Jiang Feng's "Temple Raiders" had the "skillful hands" skill.

He went forward to remove the hidden poison needle trap in the door gap, opened the door lock, and then stopped, staring at the door gap, his face gradually becoming solemn.

"Sister Feng, can't the door be opened?" Ma Yun asked from behind.

"The traps and locks have been removed, but... we'd better not rush to open the door."

"Why?"

"Opposite this door, there is a strong negative energy, which is spreading out through the cracks in the door."

"Templar Raider" is not just a thief profession, but also has the characteristics of a priest.

As a divine spellcaster, Jiang Feng is very sensitive to changes in the concentration of negative energy, and high concentrations of negative energy often come from high-level undead creatures.
