This game is just very simple

Chapter 372: Headless Knights (Two in One)

The structure of the statue is very realistic. Through the broken neck, you can clearly see the stone spine, muscles, and even blood vessels.

It's like a clear diagram of human anatomy.

After the wailing head in the stone was completely separated from the body, Qin Yuan also stopped the direct-viewing effect of [Petrifying Demonic Eye].

"Boom."

And just the moment he stopped the direct viewing effect of [Petrifying Demonic Eye], the head of the stone statue hit the ground with a dull sound.

This sound also awakened everyone who was in shock.

After coming to their senses, everyone's reaction was even more nervous than when they first faced the wailing in the stone.

There was no way. The strength Qin Yuan displayed had already made them feel terrified.

Not to mention talking, I didn't even dare to breathe.

They were afraid that they would accidentally upset Qin Yuan. With just one look, their heads would be torn apart like the howling stone.

"Pfft!"

Just when everyone was afraid to breathe, a slight sound suddenly came from behind Qin Yuan.

Everyone looked over subconsciously, and then saw that Bao Chen, who was following behind Qin Yuan, had his legs weak and knelt directly on the ground.

Qin Yuan looked at Bao Chen doubtfully:
"What are you doing?"

I don't quite understand why Bao Chen suddenly knelt down to me.

Bao Chen, stared at by Qin Yuan, lost his color at a visible speed, and cold sweat began to ooze from his forehead. He replied in a low voice:
"My legs are a little weak."

"Oh."

Qin Yuan nodded:

"Your kidneys are not in good condition."

Bao Chen: “.”

"Yes, my kidneys are not good."

Bao Chen said through gritted teeth.

"Middle-aged people today are really getting worse with each generation."

Qin Yuan shook his head.

After saying that, he didn't look at Bao Chen again, but focused his attention on the stone statue control core that exploded after killing the howling stone.

When the people around saw Qin Yuan withdraw his gaze, their hearts finally settled down.

Bao Chen looked very weak, as if he had just been rescued from drowning.

Unlike these people who were nervous, Chu Lie and the other three, like Qin Yuan, focused their attention on the control core of the stone statue that fell out from the broken neck of the wailing statue.

This is a grayish-white ball the size of a palm.

There are some blue indentations on the sphere, which are intertwined with each other to form a complex pattern on the sphere.

When the four of them turned their eyes to the ball.

Qin Yuan had already reached out and picked up the ball.

And its attributes also appeared in front of Qin Yuan at the same time.

【Name】Stone Statue Control Core

【Type：】Magical Creation
【Quality:】Excellent
[Description:] A core that can control the Howling in Stone operation.

[Effect:] After the spirit is connected with the core, the actions of the Stone Howler can be directly controlled.

Seeing this, Qin Yuan touched his chin.

Looking at the headless body standing aside.

After thinking for a while, he reached out and touched the statue in front of him to check its current properties.

[Name:] Howling in the Stone (Broken)

【Type：】Puppet

【Quality：】Rare

[Attack: 10]

[Defense: 5]

【Speed: 11】

[Explanation:] A special puppet that can be controlled by the control core. Due to being broken, the puppet's power is greatly reduced and its skills cannot be exerted.

After it is destroyed, its properties change.

It turned into something like a puppet.

Seeing this, Qin Yuan grasped the control core of the stone statue in his hand and tried to control it with his mind.

And along with that the idea of controlling the stone statue appeared in his mind.

The next moment, the control core in his hand immediately emitted a light blue light.

Then the headless statue began to move.

The movements were a bit stiff at first, but as Qin Yuan became more adept at controlling it, the Stone Howling's movements became more flexible.

I can't do movements that are too difficult, but I can still do simple actions like running and lifting things.

However, there is a certain delay in issuing the command. It takes about half a second for the statue to make the corresponding action after the command is issued.

Upon seeing this, Chu Lie and his companions immediately returned to the corner where Qin Yuan had killed a group of people howling in the stone.

Find the control core of the stone statue and try to control it.

The corresponding stone statue core can only control the corresponding stone howl.

After some experiments, several people discovered the problem of the wailing in these damaged stones.

"The reaction was a bit too slow, and the defense wasn't very good either."

Chu Lie shook his head as he looked at the statue whose corner was easily cut off by his weapon.

He originally thought that this statue could be used in combat, but now it seems that he was overthinking it.

"It's not useless. It can be used to explore the way, and it can also increase the combat power of those who have no skills."

Yin Songbai said upon seeing this.

However, the specific decision depends on Qin Yuan's decision.

Thinking this in their hearts, several people looked at Qin Yuan.

However, Qin Yuan was seen sitting directly on the neck of Shi Zhongwailing, indicating that he had been transformed into a headless knight.

"."

Looking at the headless stone wailing, everyone fell silent.

Is this right?
This is wrong!

Whose headless knight's mount has no head?
"Yes, this is the real Headless Horseman. The setting of knights without heads in movies and TV shows is nonsense."

Chu Lie was the first to say that Qin Yuan was right.

Then everyone became a headless knight, and dozens of headless stone statues were distributed to everyone present.

As for the rest, Qin Yuan put them into his mount's backpack.

There were wails in the broken stone. Although the attack and defense power were not strong enough in this fourth underground layer, the speed was really fast, many times faster than their own movements.

And with this stone howling tool as a means of transportation, you don't have to worry about your feet being pierced by the plants below.

So after experiencing it for a while, everyone found that the Howling in the Stone is quite practical.

The only drawback is that once you sit on this thing, your movements look weird no matter how you move.

After all, dozens of people were sitting on a moving headless statue. If someone who didn't know the details saw it, it would probably scare them half to death.

While the others were getting familiar with their mounts, Qin Yuan turned his attention back to the fork in the road.

Thinking about going that way.

"Do these two patterns have any special meaning?"

Hua Hongan rode the statue to the two patterns and asked.

He was quite unfamiliar with the operation of the statue, and the delay was also higher than Qin Yuan's, about one second, which was probably related to his mental strength.

"Maybe it has something to do with the thing that turns people into stone statues."

Zhao Xu analyzed, and then he looked to the right where the gear pattern was.

Just now, a lot of Stone Howlers appeared here. Unfortunately, they met Qin Yuan, otherwise, such a large number of Stone Howlers would probably have wiped them out in an instant.

Qin Yuan nodded after hearing Zhao Xu's analysis.

"Captain, shall we go left?"

Seeing this, Zhao Xu asked, the right side is obviously very dangerous, and the best choice now is the left side.

"No, let's go to the right." Qin Yuan pointed to the right and explained the reason:
"Compared to the left side, which knows nothing, the right side at least knows what monsters are out there. And with our preparedness, we won't be easily tricked."

What Qin Yuan said makes a lot of sense.

But Zhao Xu felt that Qin Yuan simply wanted to know what turned people into stone statues.

Zhao Xu didn't know whether to be happy or unhappy about this.

After all, Qin Yuan actually came up with a reason to fool him.

When Qin Yuan spoke, no one objected, nor did anyone dare to object.

Of course, if you want to go solo, Qin Yuan won’t stop you.

However, after seeing the strength Qin Yuan has demonstrated, I believe that as long as there is nothing wrong with his brain, he will not have the idea of going solo.

The road on the right is exactly the same as when we came in, or even exactly the same. It is a straight route that makes it impossible to see the end.

There are fewer plants on the ground than at the beginning, and it seems that we are transitioning to the next extreme weather.

Until the conversion is complete, you don't need to worry too much about it.

Enter the corner on the right.

With the help of the mounts, it only took a short time for everyone to cover a distance of one thousand meters. If they had walked before, it would have taken at least twenty minutes and would have taken them no time to complete the journey.

This is the speed advantage brought by a good mount. It does not require them to consume physical energy and can increase their speed several times.

Of course, it would be better if the mount didn't look so creepy.

"Strange, why is there no statue?"

After walking a thousand meters without encountering any new statues, Hua Hongan couldn't help but feel a little confused.

When You Feipeng and the others who were following behind heard this, their mouths twitched.

Those are elite monsters, not cabbages. How could they still be there after killing hundreds of them? If there really were still some, I would probably have to walk a long distance before I could encounter them again.

When everyone was thinking this.

They walked forward another four or five kilometers.

Then the straight passage in front of him changed.

An arc appeared.

A huge open space with a diameter of one hundred meters appeared in front of them.

In the center of the open space is a majestic statue decorated with gold threads. The statue is a delicate figure hidden under a veil, holding a cross in each hand, as if it were hanging from an invisible silk thread.

Around the statue, there are kneeling stone statues one after another, like a god guarded by all living beings at the center of the world.

Everyone who saw this scene showed vigilance in their eyes.

When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong. A statue of a god suddenly appears here. There is nothing wrong, but there is something wrong.

"Try to attack?"

Someone suggested.

However, this proposal was immediately rejected.

After all, if some mechanism is triggered, there will be no time to regret it.

Everyone looked at Qin Yuan, waiting for his decision.

Qin Yuan first lost a glance at the nearly 1,000 people kneeling around the statue and wailing.

Yes, these kneeling stone statues are all wailing from the stone.

As for the statue in the center guarded by these wailing stones, Qin Yuan looked at it but could not obtain any information.

It is not a living thing, but seems to be just a statue, a dead object.

He needs to touch the inanimate objects before he can obtain information.

After thinking for a while, Qin Yuan looked at Yin Songbai:
"Songbai, what do you think?"

Yin Songbai thought for a moment and said:

"Captain, we'd better test it with the hell creatures first to see if there is any danger before passing."

Qin Yuan nodded.

Take out the Gate of Hell directly.

The moment the gate of hell appears.

The extremely strong smell of sulfur instantly swept through the entire space.

You Feipeng and others who were at the back were shocked when they saw this.

This is obviously another A-level equipment.

Thinking of this, several people looked at each other and saw shock in each other's eyes.

After all, even in the most powerful park, there are not many pieces of equipment of this level. However, based on what they saw and guessed, Qin Yuan probably has three pieces in his hand.

Just as a few people were guessing how much equipment of this level Qin Yuan had in his hands, a two-headed hellhound jumped out of the gate of hell.

"Roar!"

With a wild roar, the surrounding space seemed to shake.

Its four scarlet eyes looked around, as if looking for a target to attack. Finally, its sight fell on the statue in the center of the open space. The next moment, without any hesitation, it rushed directly towards the statue.

However, the next moment, something terrifying happened.

The hellhound's forward movement suddenly stopped in mid-air.

Yes! It stopped in the air!
It's as if the pause button has been pressed.

Everyone who saw this scene held their breath.

His eyes were fixed on the two-headed hellhound in mid-air.

I want to know what will happen to this monster.

Will it turn into a stone statue as they imagined?

However, what no one expected was.

The statue moved.

The statue on the central platform raised its right hand holding the check mark.

Then, the next moment, the huge square was filled with the sound of shattering.

Shi Zhong was kneeling on the ground, wailing, and cracks began to appear on his body.

One after another, fresh "people" walked out of the broken stone shell. The only difference from the living was that there was no light in the eyes of these people, just like the dead.

Most of these people are not from Earth.

The reason for saying this is that these people have some more or less different features from ordinary people, such as strange appendages on their ears, horns between their eyebrows, or tails.

After returning to their original appearance, these people began to act quickly.

Just like actors in a play who had rehearsed countless times, they each performed their duties and soon stood in their respective positions.

There were civilians with fear on their faces, soldiers holding weapons, nobles being held high by the crowd to command the battlefield, and victims whose bodies were torn to pieces.

At first glance, it would seem that these people were attacked by the two heads of hell.

However, all this is frozen.

"He and the others won't come back alive, will they?"

Seeing this scene, someone asked in a trembling voice.

However, before his question was answered, the strange paused screen in front of him seemed to be pressed play again.

"Quick! Protect the Lord!"

"Damn it! It's a two-headed hellhound. How could there be such a thing here?"

"Father! Father!"

"Run!"

There was a sudden cacophony of noise.

The guards in front of the nobles rushed towards the oncoming two-headed hellhound without caring about their own comfort.

The people standing on the periphery turned around and ran away with terrified expressions.

A young girl, with tears in her eyes, looked at her 'father' who had been dismembered into pieces by her just a moment ago.

The frozen picture began to move.

And at this moment, Qin Yuan saw the detailed information of the statue located in the center of the open space.

【Name：】Performer-Jenomi

Level: 40
【Type：】The afterglow

【Destiny:】Foolishness
