Chapter 178 Catch the thief!
Fantasy achievements are a brand new type of achievement, and Ji Ruo is not quite sure what the specific trigger is.
But this does not affect the power of 'Fantasy Martial Arts: Diamond Indestructible Divine Art'.
Different from ordinary martial arts, the 'Vajra Indestructible Magical Skill' is not divided into beginner and advanced levels.
This fantasy martial art has four levels, namely Vajra Qi training, Vajra body training, Vajra axe swinging, and Vajra pushing mountains.
The first level is the level that Ji Ruo is currently at - Vajra Qi training.
It is different from the kind of Qi training that Ji Ruo understood. It mainly trains the Qi that protects the body.
…
"Bang, bang."
Ji Ruo knocked on his chest, making a dull sound similar to that of hitting metal, and nodded with some satisfaction: "Not bad! Now you have the hard skills. When there is a chance, I will pass this magical skill on to the squad leader."
Then Ji Ruo got ready again and asked, "Luo Xi, what did your sister tell you in your dream?"
With the protection of the Vajra's invincible power, Ji Ruo was no longer so afraid of Luo Xi's sister who could "appear in spirits".
"My sister said..."
Luo Xi recalled a little and said uncertainly: "It seems that she said that we should take time to worship her more and ask her to show her power more. She also wants a red scarf..."
It is well known that it is difficult to recall the details of a dream after waking up.
Although Rosie's dream was not a normal one, she would have been able to remember it clearly if she had come out and talked to Ji Ruo right after White Cat had finished explaining it.
But she later chatted with the white cat for a long time, so that her memory of the beginning of the dream was a little fuzzy...
“Pray to her more?” Ji Ruo smiled and said, “Okay, it just so happens that I didn’t see clearly what the cat’s ghost looks like last time… Well, but we have to wait until the thief is caught. Luo Xi, Uncle Chen Mo, and Little Thing, please stop talking. It’s getting dark, let’s see if the thief will come tonight…”
…
Night falls.
Inside Babao Village.
There are five golden statues of martial saints placed in the center of the village, and the expression of each statue is particularly ferocious.
But this does not affect people's respect for these holy images at all.
Dozens of warriors were patrolling around the village, their movements crisscrossing each other, yet strangely not chaotic.
A warrior took a look at the holy statues in the center of the village and muttered, "Strange, how did the three holy statues get lost? The holy statues clearly have the effect of suppressing demons. If a demon that has killed humans has killed humans, it should not be able to get close to the holy statues.
As for the demons that have never killed humans, most of them know that we are not easy to mess with and will not touch us, not to mention that a statue weighs more than thousands of pounds... How strange, could this really be some kind of supernatural event?"
"Don't be suspicious." The warrior next to him glanced at him and said, "The holy image is not omnipotent. We must patrol carefully tonight. Now, Babao Village can be renamed Wubao Village. If after tonight, Wubao Village becomes Sibao Village, how can we explain to the villagers?"
Previously, there were eight statues of the Martial Saint in Babaozhai, which is why the village got its name.
Those eight holy statues are the treasures of Babaozhai.
So far, three statues have been stolen.
"Hehe, at worst you can let me take over! Besides, with the configuration we have tonight, not even a mosquito can fly in, don't worry!"
"Don't be too confident."
…
One o'clock in the morning.
In a corner of the village, unnoticed by all the warriors, there was a shadow surging like a stream of water.
In the shadows, two humanoid creatures were talking.
"Their patrols are getting more intense..."
A deep voice was heard, but it was covered by the shadow and could not be heard.
"Jigu (Kali, what should we do now? Are you going to steal again tonight?)"
The creature called Kali thought for a moment and said, "Forget it. With this kind of defense, even if we have divine power, it will be difficult for us to escape unscathed..."
"But what about the mission God has given us?"
Kali said seriously: "Jili Gulu (Josie, we are thieves, not warriors. Do you expect us to quietly carry away a statue weighing thousands of pounds under the siege of dozens of black-haired aliens?)"
Qiao Xi shook her head and said: "It seems a bit unreal... "
Carli said: "Just treat it as a scout tonight. They can't keep up this patrol intensity forever. They will get tired eventually.
We are thieves, we must be patient. )"
"Ji (You are right.)"
Afterwards, the shadow began to flow in the darkness and "flowed" out of Babao Village.
During the whole process, he was not discovered by any warrior.
Carli and Josie came to the jungle outside the village.
"Ji...lu? (Let's go back first...eh? What is that?)"
Before Kali finished speaking, he suddenly saw a golden statue standing not far away.
The statue was standing in a lunge stance with one hand pressed down in a claw-like position, as if suppressing something, but there was nothing under its claw.
The other hand was raised high, with the palm facing the sky. There seemed to be a small golden object on the palm, but it was too far away to know what it was.
The golden statue had a ferocious look on its face, and a golden cat was lying on top of its head, motionless, as if it were a part of the statue.
The moonlight fell on the golden statue, making it look like it was radiating a faint glow, magnificent.
Qiao Xi said in confusion: "Jili Gulu. (It seems that the God asked us to steal the statue, but... was there this statue here yesterday? And why is this statue so... small?)"
A normal holy statue is usually about five meters tall. The higher the martial artist's realm in life, the more burly his body will be after he transforms into a holy statue.
For example, in the case of Gu Xingzhou, a warrior in the Golden Body Realm who has opened up seventy-two star circles can even be tens of meters tall after transforming into a holy statue!
Of course, as time goes by, the remaining martial arts will in the statue will be eroded by the wind and rain of time, and the statue will become smaller and smaller.
The one that Ji Ruo had seen earlier was a statue that was badly damaged.
At this moment, the one that Carli and Josie saw was only about two meters high, even with its raised arm, so they found it strange.
“Jigu! (Indeed.)” Kali nodded seriously: “Jigu. (It may be a trap, be careful.)”
Josie also knew that this situation was not normal, so she and Carli controlled the shadow and carefully patrolled within a radius of 50 meters around the statue.
After a moment.
They returned to their original position.
"Jigu... (Surprisingly, there is no ambush?)"
"Jililgululu? (Is there something wrong with the statue?)"
Kali thought for a moment, then quietly stretched out his arm and aimed at the motionless statue not far away - whoosh~
A sleeve arrow shot out and hit the chest of the statue.
“clang!”
The sound of metal clashing rang out, and sparks flew everywhere.
"Chichigugu. (It looks like a real statue...)"
"Jigu (Try again.)"
"Ji. (Okay.)"
Kali nodded, and then shot out another hidden arrow.
This time, he aimed at what the statue's raised hand was dragging.
“Fuck!”
There was a strange crashing sound, and the small golden object flew backwards and rolled into the grass.
Carly and Josie waited for another half an hour - what thieves have the most is patience!
"Jili Gulu. (It really is a statue. Let's go and carry it back for the mission!)"
“Ji! (Good!)”
They finally took action.
The shadows moved slowly forward.
It took nearly six minutes to move the fifty-meter distance.
They finally arrived at the foot of the statue.
Josie looked through the shadows at the small thing that had just been shot down.
It was a lifelike small statue, only the size of a palm, and extremely exquisitely crafted.
Kali had an idea. He reached out his hand and picked up the small statue and put it in his pocket. "This might be a golden statue made by the black-haired alien. The gods definitely don't want it. Let's take it back and sell it. We'll split the money in half."
It just smells a bit weird...)"
"Ji. (Okay, let's do it.)"
Afterwards, shadows surged violently and gradually condensed into two human figures in front of the statue.
"Jigu. (This statue looks so young.)" said Qiao Xi.
Kali nodded: "Ji. (Indeed.)"
Ji Ruo: “Waka.”
The two nodded subconsciously, and then froze.
But the statue suddenly grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, and said, "Jili Gulu! (You two, you are very patient. What kind of bird language are you speaking? It's quite interesting... Well, it's our first meeting, so I'll give you a palm thunder! You're welcome!)"
The statue, that is, Ji Ruo, suddenly moved.
I don't know when he put on a pair of gloves as thin as cicada wings on his hands, and outside the gloves he also had a pair of half-finger gloves that looked unremarkable.
Ji Ruo rubbed his palms together, and a flash of lightning appeared between his palms, which he slapped towards the chests of the two thieves - the iron sand palm was more powerful, but he wanted to catch them alive!
Qiao Xi was caught off guard and was hit by the palm lightning. He fell to the ground instantly, foaming at the mouth and shaking all over.
Kali reacted faster and took a step back to avoid Ji Ruo's palm thunder.
"Quite a quick reaction." Ji Ruo said as he fiercely slapped down with the second palm.
"Jigu! (Damn it!)"
Kali cursed inwardly, and immediately turned into a shadow, his figure erratic. The lightning actually went straight through the shadow of Kali's incarnation without causing any harm to it.
The shadow fled away quickly without stopping, and he didn't even bother to care about his teammates.
Ji Ruo was slightly stunned, then he took shadow steps and caught up with the shadow in an instant.
His hands were like claws, and he grabbed fiercely!
Kali's lips curled slightly.
He knew that Ji Ruo couldn't be caught!
"What are you laughing at?"
Ji Ruo also laughed: "Do you think I can't catch you?"
Use force suddenly with ten fingers!
Absolute friction half-finger gloves can grab whatever the wearer wants, depending on the wearer's wishes!
Ji Ruo caught it!
Kali was shocked. This was a magical power bestowed by God!
His magic is a thief's magic skill that can ignore unit volume collision and turn himself into a "ghost"! How could he be caught!
But Ji Ruo did not intend to answer him. After catching the shadow with his own hands, he shouted at the top of his voice: "Catch the thief! Catch the thief!"
The mountain birds in the forest were frightened and flew away, and the entire Babao Village was alarmed.
