Chapter 562: Strange Stone Statue (Two in One)
"Let's go around the building first and see if there's anything good."
After dealing with dozens of skeleton soldiers wandering the streets, Gervis shook his body and walked directly to the door of a building on the roadside.
After coming out of the Potion Garden, he did not immediately activate the exploration function.
Because Gervis has used the search function dozens of times, he has some understanding of how to use this search function to find the type that suits his needs.
For example, if you spend some energy points on exploration, you can only explore low-level potion plants, and it is very likely that the location of the red dot will appear in the potion plant garden behind Gervis.
Therefore, if he doesn't want to waste energy points, he can only increase the level of exploration and directly use 10 energy points to search, or a higher level, such as 100 energy points.
After thinking and weighing the pros and cons for a moment, Gervis decided to explore one or two rooms first to see what the situation was like inside the palace.
If there were treasures everywhere, he certainly wouldn't waste energy points.
If there are not as many treasures in the palace as imagined, then it would be worthwhile to use the exploration function.
Squeaky~
When Gervis arrived at the building in front of him, he found that the door was closed. It was obvious that no one had taken care of it for a long time, and there was a thick layer of dust on the door.
When Gervis pushed the door open with force, it creaked and thick dust kept falling. Gervis quickly covered his mouth and nose, and only looked inside after the dust had settled.
But it was pitch black inside at the moment, and Gervis couldn't see clearly.
After making sure that there was no movement inside, Gervis took out a deep-sea pearl and walked in. In an instant, the entire interior of the building was illuminated by the deep-sea pearl.
The house was very spacious and single-storey, so the roof looked even higher. Except for the large stone pillars used for support, the illuminated areas were all visible.
After taking a quick look, Gervis was basically sure what the house was used for, because there were many containers and jade boxes on the walls on both sides.
"A place where potion plants are stored!"
Gervis stepped closer and with the help of the light from the Deep Sea Pearl, he discovered that the wooden cabinets were labeled with the names of various magic potion plants, neatly classified.
However, Gervis was not happy to see this situation, because hundreds of years had passed and the dust in this place was almost half a foot thick. It would be strange if there was still a complete potion inside.
Snap!
Sure enough, when Gervis opened four or five jade boxes in succession, he found that they were all empty, without even a residue left, and some were still covered in dust.
If the potion is planted in the soil and not pulled out, it will definitely be like the potion garden just now, where it will become more and more abundant as time goes by.
But if it is kept in this jade box, the medicinal effect will begin to fade after a year or two, and then it will become worthless.
unless……
Gervis remembered what Laci had mentioned to him last time, that the storage space was not only convenient for storing items at any time, but also that as long as the items could be stored in the storage space, they would never deteriorate.
Because the storage space is a very peculiar space, there is no such thing as the passage of time in it.
Looking at the shelves of jade boxes on the wall, Gervis smacked his lips, feeling it was a pity. There were at least hundreds of jade boxes in this room, which represented hundreds of magic potion plants that were just left here to wither and rot.
However, it was a pity, as Gervis had just discovered a potion garden, he naturally wouldn't worry about it too much.
He just looked at it for a moment and then moved away to look somewhere else.
"Hey! Why are there two such weird stone sculptures?"
Just as Gervis shifted his gaze from the shelves and looked deeper into the house, he suddenly discovered two strange statues in front of him.
The reason why it is weird is that the two statues are hung upside down on the wall, and the statues are quite large, each one is more than two meters high.
As for its lifelike appearance, Gervis took a closer look and found that it looked 70% similar to a bat, and this oversized stone bat statue looked even more ferocious and dangerous.
Gervis looked carefully for a moment, but seeing that he found nothing else, he didn't care and continued to move towards the two statues.
Because there he saw a table, and if there was anything good in this empty room, Gervis felt it must be in the drawer of the table.
"wrong!"
But Gervis had only taken two steps when he suddenly felt a palpitation, as if some danger was approaching. This was the intuition he gained after a long period of fighting, an instinct on the battlefield, but Gervis's instinct was stronger.
clang!
Without hesitation, Gervis drew his sword and lowered his body to look around. If there was any sudden danger, he could counterattack immediately.
But after observing for a while, Gervis didn't find anything suspicious.
“Could it be these two things?”
Gervais finally set his sights on the two bat statues.
The room was empty, with wide open spaces all around and no visible area, so there was no place where danger could hide.
However, the two statues in front were very strange, and I immediately felt alarmed as soon as I took a few steps closer.
"There's something strange!"
As the saying goes, there must be something wrong when things are abnormal. Gervis would not doubt his combat intuition because this feeling of early warning has been verified many times.
"Whether this is the reason or not, let's chop it off first to be on the safe side!"
Thinking this in his mind, Gervis didn't hesitate at all. He simply raised the Crimson Moon and chopped at one of the statues.
There is no such thing as protecting ancient buildings in this world. Life comes first.
Chirp!
But just as Gervis raised the Crimson Moon and prepared to chop forward, something strange suddenly happened in front of him.
I saw that the two huge, motionless stone bat statues in front of me suddenly 'came to life' and began to move on the wall.
As the two statues began to shake, the stones on their surfaces began to crack, and then there was a sound of stones falling, leaving a pile of rubble on the ground.
"What the hell is that? A gargoyle?"
Gervis frowned slightly. Although he was mentally prepared, such a change was still beyond his expectations.
"What is management? Die first!"
Gervis was no fool. He was stunned for a moment before he reacted and was ready to take action immediately.
If he didn't chop it down now, when would he do so? With a loud roar, Gervis took two steps forward and slashed the Crimson Moon in his hand towards the body of one of the gargoyles.
This gargoyle transformed the fastest. At this moment, the stones on its body had fallen off, and its wings were slowly spreading out.
Phew!
Chirp!
The Crimson Moon in Gervis's hand slashed across the gargoyle's abdomen. With a "puff", half of the Crimson Moon's sword penetrated directly into the gargoyle's body, and the deep red blood immediately spurted out of the gargoyle's body.
Then the gargoyle let out a shrill scream, quickly broke away from the wall, and then flapped its wings violently and swooped towards Gervis.
Gervis was well prepared. The moment the gargoyle pounced on him, he leaned back and held the Crimson Moon upright in front of his chest. When the gargoyle pounced on him, the Crimson Moon directly scratched its chest to its abdomen.
boom!
The gargoyle, whose entire chest and abdomen were cut open, only slid in the air for two or three meters before falling heavily onto the stone slabs of the hall, and only stopped when it hit the solid wall in front.
Afterwards, the gargoyle was no longer able to get up and could only lie on the ground twitching continuously, obviously not far from death.
After killing one gargoyle, Gervis didn't have time to pay more attention to it, because there was another one waiting for Gervis.
At this time, another gargoyle had already completed its transformation and was hovering in the air, flapping its two-meter-wide wings. Its emerald green eyes were staring at Gervis intently, their eyes full of bloodthirstiness and murderous intent.
"Take my fireball!"
Seeing this, Gervis didn't say much, and directly threw a big fireball at the gargoyle in the air.
Gervis could finally sense the strength of this gargoyle, which was actually comparable to that of a high-level gold cultivator.
If he hadn't taken the initiative just now, he would probably have been beaten up by two gargoyles comparable to high-level gold.
Chirp!
The gargoyle, which had fully recovered its strength, was obviously not so easy to deal with. When Gervis's fireball was about to reach it, the gargoyle flapped its wings quickly and dodged the fireball attack in a flash.
After dodging Gervis's fireball, the gargoyle hovered again and immediately attacked Gervis. With a sharp cry from its mouth, a crescent-shaped blade of light formed in front of it.
The blade of light emitted a green glow, and the moment it appeared, it flew towards Gervis below.
Seeing this, Gervis certainly didn't dare to take it head-on. He quickly circulated his fighting spirit and dodged the attack of the light blade.
boom!
After Gervis dodged the light blade, it directly hit the bluestone floor, instantly breaking the stone slabs on the ground into flying pieces.
“It’s quite powerful!”
When Gervis saw the shattered stone slabs on the ground, he gained a new understanding of the gargoyles.
But Gervis was not afraid.
If the gargoyle hadn't been hanging in the air, he would have carried Crimson Moon and chopped it up. You know, Crimson Moon has extremely strong killing power against dark creatures.
"Fireball!"
Gervis quickly constructed the matrix, and then continued to shoot fireballs at the gargoyle in mid-air, releasing a total of five consecutive fireballs in an instant.
The gargoyle saw that his attack missed and wanted to finish him off. It flapped its wings and emitted another blade of light, which instantly collided with Gervis's first fireball.
boom!
The light blade and the fireball collided with each other and caused a violent explosion, instantly illuminating the room as bright as day.
However, Gervis fired a total of five fireballs. The first one was offset, but the next four continued to shoot towards the gargoyle.
Chirp!
The gargoyle originally wanted to dodge, but Gervis's fireball had already calculated all the angles it could dodge.
Finally, a fireball hit the gargoyle's wings hard. With a sharp and shrill cry from the gargoyle, its whole body staggered and almost fell from mid-air.
Finally, it flapped its wings hard and finally managed to stabilize its body.
"So durable!"
Gervis originally thought that a fireball would at least seriously injure the gargoyle, especially when it hit its wings, but it only caused minor injuries and was still able to fly in the air.
Even if it was a human golden knight, facing a fireball as big as Gervis's, without any defense, he would definitely be seriously injured if hit. If it hit a vital part, it would be normal for him to die on the spot.
…
Just when Gervis realized that the gargoyle had strong defense.
After the angry gargoyle realized that he could not harm Gervis with his light blade, his green eyes suddenly became sharp.
The gargoyle's wings suddenly flapped rapidly, and then it dived towards Gervis Miyase at an extremely fast speed.
The sharp claws were placed in front, trying to tear Gervis into pieces.
“Well done!”
When Gervis saw the gargoyle rushing towards him, he was not panicked but delighted. He had been waiting for this moment. The gargoyle's action undoubtedly accelerated its fate of death.
"Critical strike with one sword!"
Gervis's fighting spirit was running to its limit. He adjusted his body at an extremely fast speed, roared, then jumped up and slashed at the gargoyle.
Puff! Puff!
With two crisp sounds, the gargoyle's two sharp claws were directly cut off from the side by Gervis.
Chirp!
The gargoyle had never expected that the human in front of her would react so quickly, and because her claws were cut off by Gervis, the intense pain made it impossible for her to control her body and she fell directly to the ground.
Bang! Bang!
Following two muffled sounds, a large amount of dust was raised in the house.
The muffled sounds belonged to Gervis and the gargoyle falling to the ground.
Although Gervis dodged the gargoyle's fatal attack, he was still hit by the gargoyle's wings and fell heavily to the ground.
"Pah!"
Gervis supported his dizzy head and slowly stood up, spitting out dust from his mouth.
After he stood firmly, Gervis looked at the gargoyle not far away, which was still trying to escape.
"Stop struggling! Go in peace!"
Unfortunately, its legs were cut off by Gervis, and its wings were damaged by the fireball just now. At this moment, it was no longer able to flap its wings to escape.
Every time the gargoyle flies more than one meter high, it will crash heavily to the ground.
Gervis didn't want to delay any longer, so he took two quick steps forward holding the Crimson Moon, then thrust the sword fiercely into the gargoyle's head.
puff!
As the sound came, the gargoyle became completely silent.
