"What are the attack methods of these puppet guards? Are they mainly based on melee slashing or energy radiation?"
Gao Yuan listened intently to Fei Ru's words, then thought about it and asked again.
"Everything is there!"
"Although I have never explored it in depth, as far as the puppet guards I encountered in the ruins are concerned, their types can be divided into three types."
"The first is the puppets that focus on melee attacks. They use uniform weapons and armor. Both attack and defense are extremely powerful."
"The second is a kind of puppet with long-range attack capabilities. They also wear armor with strong defense."
"It's just that its attack methods are different from the first type of puppet. It rarely rushes up to attack. Instead, it will stay at a distance from me and perform attacks similar to spells. Moreover, its attack methods are many, and its attack attributes are also various.
Diverse.”
"As for the last kind of puppet, I have only encountered it twice, and it is much rarer than the first two!"
Feiru paused for a moment before speaking, and sorted out her words with a look of reminiscence on her face, and then continued slowly:
"That was the winter two years ago, and it was also the seventh time I entered this underground ruins."
"Before entering this time, I made a lot of preparations based on the experience accumulated in previous explorations."
"In addition, some of the puppets near the entrance to the ruins have been destroyed one after another when I entered and explored the previous few times."
"So when I entered the ruins this time, I didn't waste much effort and advanced a long distance."
"But just when I turned the first fork along the corridor and fought with the two puppets guarding there, one far and one near, this third type of puppet appeared!"
Having said this, Fei Ru turned to look at Gao Yuan and said:
"You should be familiar with the 'Succubus' in 'Gray Desert', right?"
After seeing Gao Yuan's affirmative reply, she continued without pause:
"This third type of puppet behaves very similarly to the 'Succubus', and it appeared behind me silently!"
"Due to the exercises I have practiced, my five senses are extremely sharp. Even those who are proficient in breath gathering techniques will find it difficult not to be discovered by me as long as they approach me within a certain range."
"But before this succubus attacked, I didn't even notice any signs!"
"Moreover, the attack of this kind of puppet is also very strange. Just the sharp roar it makes can easily shake the soul!"
"And once it comes into contact with your body, you will feel a strange cold feeling."
"Not only will the body become stiff and abnormal, but the flow of true energy in the body will also be greatly blocked by this!"
At this point, her tone paused slightly, and then she sighed with some emotion:
"I think I have some experience with puppets. When I was with my ancestor, I actually saw a lot of third-order puppets that are usually rare to see."
"But this third type of puppet guard is different from the ones I've encountered before. It doesn't even look like a puppet!"
When Gao Yuan heard this, his heart suddenly moved and he said curiously:
"Not like a puppet?"
"There are no clear characteristics of a puppet on the target, so how do you determine that it is a puppet?"
Feiru thought for a while and said:
"It's not that it doesn't have clear characteristics. This third type of puppet has similar parts to the first two types of puppets."
"In addition, the most important thing is that after these puppet guards forced me back from the ruins, they would move back to the ruins neatly without hesitation. This completely synchronized feature is obviously different from living creatures."
Hearing this, Gao Yuan nodded immediately.
Then he combined Fei Ru's description and embodied the three puppet response plans in his mind.
Needless to say more about the first two types of puppets, after understanding their corresponding characteristics, he didn't pay much attention to them.
With his current strength, as long as the strength of these puppets is still within the scope of the Kaiyuan Realm, no matter whether it is close or long-range attacks, they will not pose much of a threat to him.
As for what Fei Ru said, that kind of armor with outstanding defense.
Whether it is against the various powerful spells he has mastered, or against the powerful armor-breaking Sky-Shaking Fist, it is still unknown to what extent he can withstand it.
Even if these puppet guards have a numerical advantage, doesn't he still have Fu Hai tactics as an alternative?
Even if dozens or hundreds of these puppet guards are encountered at the same time, it is still unknown how many of these puppet guards can survive the self-destruction attack of his spherical combat puppet suicide squad.
The most important thing is the third type of puppet!
Listening to Fei Ru's description, its attack methods are indeed very similar to the 'Succubus' in my impression.
I just don't know how strong its attack against the divine soul is, but it's hard to say how much of a threat it can pose in front of the barrier formed by the top-quality 'Soul Seal' and 'Guardian Shield'.
Coupled with the comprehensive defense mechanism composed of various talismans such as the 'Evil-Repelling Talisman', it is expected that nothing will go wrong!
When he thought of this, Gao Yuan immediately felt relieved.
Judging from the information currently known, there should not be much risk to his safety after entering the ruins.
The only thing we need to worry about is, are there any more dangerous targets lurking deep in the unexplored ruins?
…
As the two of them were half discussing and half chatting, time passed quickly.
More than half an hour passed quickly.
After eating and drinking, Gao Yuan casually put away the oven, wicker chairs and other items.
Then he followed Fei Ru and rushed towards the ruins of a ruined wall not far away.
Still some distance away, he habitually activated the second-level Qi Watching Technique.
In conjunction with the power of spiritual thoughts released outside, it constantly detects everything around it.
In his vision of the aura, he could only see a gray and faint area diagonally below in the direction of the ruins, hidden by thick white snow and countless rocks.
Its overall shape is an irregular polygonal structure, with an inner diameter of about two feet. It must be the gap exposed by the underground ruins!
Sure enough, Fei Ru, who was leading the way, kept avoiding obstacles by twists and turns, but the main target was still the gray area dozens of meters deep underground.
It didn't take long for the two of them to arrive at this huge gap.
Gao Yuan stopped and subconsciously glanced at the way he came.
I saw countless criss-crossing giant rocks, intertwining into a complex passage with crisscrossing ravines.
Unless you know the specific location, or use your spiritual will to explore in this direction in advance.
Otherwise, even if someone passes by from above, it will be difficult to find the entrance to the ruins buried deep under the ruins!
You don't need to think about it to know that the giant rocks outside, which appear to be arranged in a messy manner but completely cover the entrance to the ruins, must have something to do with Fei Ru.
Withdrawing his gaze, he focused his gaze on the huge gap more than ten meters away. Its appearance was basically consistent with what Fei Ru had described before.
The first thing you see is a flat wall made entirely of unknown gray-green material.
Both its material and color are completely different from the surrounding dark brown rocks.
I saw this huge wall, diagonally inserted into the ground at an angle of about ten degrees.
The part beyond the ground continues to expand from left to right until it is submerged into the adjacent low mountain on the right.
And that huge gap is in the center of this exposed wall.
The ground around it is scattered with a large number of fragments of the same color as the wall and of different sizes.
Gao Yuan saw this and subconsciously tilted his head.
He followed the inclination of the wall and looked around for a long time, feeling a little strange in his heart.
"This ruins doesn't look like a building built directly underground!"
He couldn't help but mutter to himself.
The latter gave him the feeling that it was more like it suddenly appeared underground here by chance.
"It's like a submarine that suddenly ran aground while emerging from the deep sea, or the wreckage of a spacecraft that was inserted into the ground after crashing!"
He couldn't help but add in his mind.
With this in mind, he subconsciously looked through the gap and looked inside the ruins.
Through the dappled sunlight cast through the gaps in the surrounding rocks, the walls and floors inside the ruins can be vaguely seen.
Its color is roughly the same as the outside wall, especially the floor of the ruins, which seems to have the same angle as the ground outside.
Combined with the direction of the surrounding rocks collapsing, Gao Yuan became more convinced of his conjecture.
While he was silently observing the gap in the ruins, Fei Ru was also making preparations to enter the ruins.
She quickly took out several talismans and attached them to her body, and then took out three magical items.
Two of them were a pair of ancient token-shaped instruments. Under Fei Ru's urging, they immediately buzzed and projected layers of light blue halo like water curtains, covering her body tightly.
's shrouded within.
The other piece was a spherical crystal the size of a fist. It was hovering two feet above Fei Ru's head, emitting countless dazzling moon-white rays of light, illuminating all the lights within a few feet of it.
At the same time, the blood on the surface of her body condensed, creating an astonishing wave of energy and blood.
After doing all this, Feiru shook her hands and each took out a slender and straight black steel drill.
During this period, Gao Yuan also did not delay.
His wrist was shaking slightly, and various talismans such as the Vajra Talisman and the Demon Suppressing Talisman were attached to his body one after another.
Then his spiritual thoughts moved slightly, and the 'soul-suppressing seal' flew out from the storage bag on his waist.
Driven by his spiritual thoughts, the drops rotated and hovered above his head.
As the aura circulated on its surface, layers of gray energy light curtains continued to fall down, covering his entire body.
After a slight hesitation, he then reached out and patted the storage bag, and five spherical combat puppets appeared in front of him.
A dense buzzing sound accompanied by sporadic 'clicking' sounds was heard from inside these puppets. After a moment, haloes of talismans of different colors shone on the surface of these puppets.
At the same time, on the top of these puppets, a mechanical slot holding a fist-sized moonstone rose up.
After a short delay, these moonstones were all lit up.
Each projected countless blazing moon-white rays of light, illuminating everything within a dozen meters as bright as day.
Feiru happened to finish her preparations and turned around at this time. She glanced at the five strange-looking puppets in surprise, and then turned to look at Gao Yuan, with a look of inquiry on her face.
"You can come in!"
Gao Yuan nodded at this, indicating that he was ready, and then walked towards the gap on the opposite side.
Standing outside the huge gap in the ruins, with the white light projected from the spherical battle puppet around him, he could already see the general situation within a dozen meters of the entrance to the ruins.
This is a huge square corridor, its width is about four feet, and the top has a drop of about ten meters from the ground.
The huge gap he was in at this time should be in the middle of one side of the wall of the ruins, with a drop of nearly three meters from the ground inside the ruins.
Gao Yuan subconsciously looked around within the light range, only to realize that everything he saw was in a mess.
Especially on the floor below, in addition to some cracked gravel, there are many black water stains that have frozen, mixed with many dry vines and moss, and rotten remains of birds and animals.
As he stood still outside the gap, a strong rotten smell suddenly hit his face.
It can be seen that in the past few years since this underground ruins were exposed, in addition to Fei Ru, many nearby animals and plants have also visited this place.
And further away, beyond the reach of the light, the endless darkness covered up all traces.
Gao Yuan glanced into the darkness in the distance, and then slowly stretched out the power of his spiritual thoughts and spread towards the depths of the ruins.
Just when the power of his spiritual thoughts was able to pass through the gap and enter the interior of the ruins, he suddenly felt an invisible force of repulsion, clearly acting on his spiritual thoughts from all directions.
Affected by this, his spiritual activities also became somewhat stagnant.
Although Gao Yuan had already expected this from Fei Ru's description, he couldn't help being surprised when he felt this invisible repulsive force.
Then he mobilized his spiritual power with all his strength and spread it as far into the ruins as possible.
"One foot..."
"Two feet..."
…
During this process, every time the power of his spiritual thoughts spreads forward one foot, the ubiquitous repulsive power will be doubled, and the consumption of his spiritual thoughts will also rise sharply.
By the time his spiritual thoughts spread to a distance of seven feet, the invisible force of repulsion in his spiritual thoughts had already condensed into an indestructible barrier.
Not only is it blocked to prevent his spiritual thoughts from spreading further, even if he does nothing at this time, his spiritual thoughts are always under this amazing pressure, and its consumption is a hundred times higher than usual.
more than!
Under such a high amount of consumption, even for him who has an unusually strong spiritual sense due to practicing the "Shentong Jue", I am afraid that he can only sustain it for about 20 minutes at most!
"Is this the 'Forbidden God's Restriction' that Fei Ru mentioned just now? It is indeed very magical!"
Slowly withdrawing the power of his spiritual thoughts, Gao Yuan couldn't help but admired in his heart.
"With the suppression of this 'Forbidden God Restriction', if I want to use the power of divine thoughts stably in the ruins for a long time, the coverage area of divine thoughts can only be maintained within a maximum of four feet, which is twelve meters!"
"It's just that in this way, the detection attribute of the power of spiritual thoughts will be abolished. After all, such a small distance is not far enough to be seen with the naked eye!"
While his mind was spinning, he gestured to Fei Ru on the side, then activated the wind spell and floated into the ruins.
…
"On the right is a dead end road. Walk forward about twenty feet and the road will end."
"But just to be on the safe side, let's take a look here first, in case there are puppet guards hiding here."
After entering the ruins, Feiru turned around and pointed to the right side of the corridor.
Hearing this, Gao Yuan glanced in the direction of Fei Ru's finger.
As far as the eye could see, apart from the messy floor and the smooth jade-like walls on both sides, there was only endless darkness hidden outside the scope of the moonstone light shield, so he asked casually:
"Twenty feet? It's such a long distance, and there's no other exit along the way?"
"There's nothing, just an empty corridor."
Feiru replied without thinking, and then gestured towards Gao Yuan, heading towards the right direction first.
"Is it so strange? If it's useless, why do we need to build such long corridors?"
Gao Yuan felt a little strange when he heard this. Seeing that Fei Ru had already set off, he followed without saying anything.
Fortunately, in this ruins, apart from the weird 'Forbidden God Restriction', there is no restriction similar to the 'Forbidden Sky'.
Therefore, after entering the ruins, the two of them still maintained a state of floating in mid-air.
And the five spherical battle puppets, under his guidance, guarded him for a moment.
·
After all, the lighting range of the moonstone is limited and can only illuminate a distance of more than ten meters around the body. In addition, being in a ruins full of dangers will inevitably make people feel an indescribable depression.
Gao Yuan glanced at the darkness ahead, and the power of his spiritual thoughts radiated out instantly, covering ten meters around him.
He then left three spherical battle puppets to protect his side, and at the same time guided the other two puppets, one forward and one backward, each suspended stably above the boundary shrouded by his spiritual thoughts.
As the two puppets moved, the light shield range of the moonstone on the top also expanded, and the range of high-distance vision also broadened a lot.
Affected by this, the feeling of depression that had arisen in his heart due to entering an unknown area also dissipated a lot.
