Upon further exploration, Su Bai discovered another surprise on the hillside.
There was a ruin at the top of the slope.
This site covers an area of over a thousand square meters. Moss has grown among the ruins built of blue stone bricks. There are broken walls and towering pillars. Just by looking at those huge stone pillars that are as thick as two people can hug, it is not hard to guess the former grandeur of this building.
There appear to be some relatively well-preserved buildings in the center of the ruins.
But it's difficult to get close.
One after another, bronze guardians with rusty surfaces wandered back and forth in this area; anyone who dared to approach would immediately be attacked by them.
Su Bai saw some bronze guards holding crossbows in the center of the area.
They did not approach rashly.
Buzz!
He raised his hand and released the Eye of the Sky, placing it in a relatively safe position to perceive the attributes of the monsters.
【Cursed Bronze Statue: Common, Level 26, HP 5000/5000】
...
The monsters roaming around the ruins are all ordinary monsters around level 20.
Go further in.
There are several statues that look quite unusual.
Su Bai guessed that it must be an elite unit, but with his strength, clearing out this area wouldn't be difficult.
I didn't hesitate for long.
Su Bai immediately took action.
He had goblin guards surround him to block any monsters that might rush up.
Then he swung his staff from a great distance.
Cursed Arrow!
Wind Bullet Technique!
The air cannonball, having traveled sixty meters, still possessed considerable power, slammed into a bronze guard, shattering the copper rust on his body and denting his flesh.
Whoosh!
It eventually shattered into a pile of copper pieces.
Strangely, there was blood flowing from this pile of copper blocks.
[Experience: +260!]
[Experience: +260!]
[Experience: +260!]
...
The experience is pretty good.
After Su Bai left the Lost City, he was only one step away from reaching level 18.
After clearing out all the monsters in the outer area, he successfully leveled up.
Whoosh!
Surrounded by golden light.
Su Bai casually added the two attribute points he had just acquired.
His current five basic attributes, excluding equipment bonuses, are 10, 10, 10, 10, and 9 respectively.
But it is precisely because of the extra bonus from jewelry.
This prevents him from achieving a perfect balance.
It doesn't matter, of course.
The attribute bonus from the two pieces of jewelry is definitely much higher than the 5 attribute points given by Life Synergy.
He doesn't need to deliberately pursue skill effects.
Clear out the mobs.
In the central area of the ruins, only about twenty bronze statues remain, clustered together.
Unlike the monsters roaming the perimeter, these bronze statues are divided into groups of five, each led by an elite bronze statue wearing armor and wielding a long spear. Each group also has two bronze statue crossbowmen who keep a close watch on the surroundings at all times.
"Four elite units and eight melee units, eight ranged units..."
Su Bai examined it carefully.
Elite monsters at level 20 or so are stronger than Templar Knights, dealing at least over a thousand damage. If four elite monsters charge at him together, his six thousand shield points might not be enough.
Moreover, there are eight ranged crossbowmen.
The crossbow's attack range is generally slightly shorter than that of the longbow, but its advantage is that it is more accurate. A volley of fire would probably be enough to give him a hard time.
"We need to find a way to lure them away and defeat them one by one."
He thought to himself.
The central area of the ruins is small, with four guard teams patrolling around it, always keeping a short distance from each other.
He simply couldn't kill a squad without alerting the other monsters.
At this moment, Su Bai turned his head and looked at the goblins who were following him.
It's time to put them to use.
"The five of you will attack from the left side together, using short spears for ranged attacks. Once you've finished one wave, retreat."
He grouped the five goblin spearmen into a squad.
"uproar!"
They responded fiercely.
But it's unclear whether those guys understood his specific instructions...
Su Bai then formed two more squads and ordered them to attack from three directions in the center of the ruins.
This ensures that they can at least distract one group of statues.
Su Bai remained where he was.
Waiting for an opportunity.
Soon, all three goblin squads arrived at their designated positions, and with a command, the fifteen spear throwers simultaneously hurled their short spears.
Ta-da!
The stone spear remained embedded in the bronze statue's surface without even removing a trace of copper patina.
But the objective has been achieved.
Boom...
The bronze statues turned their bodies, each chasing after the direction from which the attack came.
Buzz!
The bronze crossbowman was the first to pull the trigger.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Sharp arrows shot out, cutting through the air and pinning several goblin spearmen to the spot!
Critical Hit! -1735!!
They were all sold out in seconds!
Seeing the damage inflicted by the bronze crossbowmen, Su Bai's heart skipped a beat.
Fortunately, he sent the goblins to draw aggro; otherwise, even he wouldn't have been able to withstand that volley of fire.
"uproar!"
Su Bai doesn't need to give orders.
The goblins' cowardice reached its peak after their companions were instantly killed.
The once-aggressive group scattered and fled in all directions, taking more than a dozen bronze guards with them in their escape.
"A great opportunity!"
Now only one group of bronze statues remains in the field.
He immediately stepped out from behind cover, swung his staff, and unleashed a barrage of basic skills.
