Chapter 1088: Chapter 517: Dark Goddess

This was a kneeling nude statue, with long hair and the evident figure of a woman.

It was probably over thirty meters tall, with hands clasped in front of its chest, its eyes closed and head slightly bowed, as if in prayer. Even though it had a stone face, one could see a peaceful and serene expression.

"Go to the front of the statue!"

Lin Baici also saw it and guessed this might be the Goddess mentioned by the Golden Crow monster bird, or at least related to her.

"Prepare for battle!"

Yuan Jifeng worried that the most terrifying crisis was about to begin!

From a bird’s eye view, one could see that within a fifty-meter radius of the Goddess statue, there were no mud people statues. Beyond that, the statues scattered across the black soil like cattle and sheep on a prairie, large and small, beautiful and ugly, all shared one thing in common—they all faced the Goddess statue.

The scene resembled some sort of mysterious and eerie sacrificial ritual.

A dwarf mud person about a meter tall climbed onto the sleigh, hadn’t even launched an attack when Hua Yue Yu poked its eyes out and then pushed it off the sleigh.

Thump! Clang!

The sleigh rolled over the mud person, leaving two indentations like iron tracks.

Deng Mingyu rushed into the fifty-meter zone, all of a sudden, the area became clear, no mud people attacked, but the monsters coming from both sides intensified their assaults, like someone invading their treasure vault.

Ordinary people would have suffered heavy casualties, but most of the hundred and ten people were examiners. Despite the chaos, the number of casualties was still in the single digits.

Of course, this was also largely because Lin Baici had tied up many of the mud people.

"Hurry in here, these mud monsters seem like they won’t enter!"

Zhang Hao shouted.

"Little Linzi, hurry up!"

His aunt was only worried about Lin Baici.

During the escape, no one dallied, and soon everyone had entered the area.

The reindeer pulled the sleigh forward another ten meters then stopped.

Lin Baici stood on the sleigh, holding a bronze sword, watching the mud people.

They had all stopped at the fifty-meter line, roaring and howling, their terrifying faces filled with unwillingness, occasionally reaching out to try to drag these humans out.

"It looks just like gorillas caged in a zoo!"

Liu Langqing joked.

More and more mud people gathered here, bustling and jostling, but they dared not take a step over the line, as if this area was sacred ground, where they would die or be punished if they entered.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Two large feet approached, looking up, they were two thick mud legs like towering stone columns.

"Damn, must be over a hundred meters tall?"

Fang Mingyuan gasped in terror, the monster looked frightening.

To it, the other mud people were like ants; it stepped on them without noticing, turning them into mud on the ground.

"We can’t keep dallying like this, we need to think of something!"

Zhang Hao walked up to Lin Baici, smoothing the reindeer’s fur.

As more mud people gathered, enclosing the area completely, it became much more troublesome to think about breaking out.

At least, the amateur weaklings, many would die.

"Go to the statue!"

Yuan Jifeng felt that the key to purifying this rule contamination lay in the Goddess statue.

Of course, getting close to it would likely trigger new rule contamination, but they had no choice.

"The statue’s eyes opened!"

Many were observing the Goddess statue and saw it open its eyes, about a dozen people panicked and started shouting.

Everyone instinctively looked at the Goddess’s eyes, and then in the next instance, the mud people that had gathered around suddenly moved, like wild horses breaking free, swarming out and rushing towards Lin Baici and the others.

"Damn, run!"

"Aren’t they not supposed to come in?"

"What do we do?"

"Burst out!"

Panicked shouts immediately filled the air.

"Yang Chun, Zhang Hao, let’s bust out!"

Deng Mingyu shouted.

Xie Yangchun did not respond, looking at Zhang Hao, who thought the key to handling the mud people lay with the Goddess statue, but he didn’t know exactly how to proceed.

Zhang Hao didn’t know either, so he turned to Lin Baici.

After all, along the way, this man’s choices had always been right.

"Go to the statue!"

Gu Qingqiu yelled, pulling out a katana and running towards the Goddess statue: "Bai Ci, hurry!"

Her call to action was weak. Without Lin Baici moving, no one followed.

"Let’s go."

Lin Baici moved, so the majority started to move.

"Yang Chun, let’s go!"

Zhang Hao pulled Xie Yangchun along.

...

Deng Mingyu was flabbergasted, noticing that only about twenty people, including two examiners from his Xijing team, had followed Lin Baici.

"Lin Baici, do you have a plan?"

Deng Mingyu called out, following after him.

Trying to break through on his own was foolish, and the more people present, the safer Deng Mingyu felt in the crowd.

He saw these people as targets to draw the monsters’ fire.

"Red Medicine, quickly go to the bottom of the statue!"

Lin Baici shouted, ignoring Deng Mingyu. He kept turning his head, surveying the enemy situation.

If running to the Goddess statue was useless, they needed to break through, and his task was to choose a spot where the enemy lines were weakest.

High Ponytail sprinted at full speed and in a blink reached the base of the Goddess statue, but nothing happened.

"It feels like it’s not working!"

Xia Hongyao analyzed, "Do you think kidnapping this statue will threaten these mud people?"
