Chapter 171 - 171 Coincidences Happen Every Day

171 Coincidences Happen Every Day

There were thousands of statues in the previous palace. Although many of them were shattered by the air wave caused by the armor falling to the ground and some were smashed by the collapsed palace, there were still hundreds that were lucky enough to escape.

At this moment, they formed an army and rushed towards the two of them. The scene was quite spectacular.

Lin Ran and Liu Hongshan looked at each other and decided to retreat for the time being. These clay statues might be the legendary Undying Army. Without knowing the situation of the enemy, it was better not to make a rash move.

In an instant, the two of them retreated more than a hundred feet into the air.

Lin Ran couldn’t help but feel nervous. Just as he was curious about how these statues were going to attack, he realized that they didn’t stop at all. They walked around the nailed armor and continued to rush forward.

Lin Ran and Liu Hongshan looked at each other silently.

A moment later, Lin Ran probed, “Why do these Undying Army soldiers look so dumb?”

“Maybe… I made a mistake. Perhaps they are not the Undying Army.”

Liu Hongshan rubbed his nose awkwardly and quickly said with a serious expression, “Forget about this for now. Hurry up and shatter that armor and leave this godforsaken place!”

When Lin Ran heard this, he stopped teasing and tightened his grip on the Yin-Yang Sword. Just as he was about to attack, he saw a few more statues running over from not far away. He hurriedly pulled Liu Hongshan to stop.

These statues were covered in injuries. It was unknown if they were damaged by the collapsing palace or the air wave, but their movements were clearly not as agile as the main force in front. It was probably because of this that they were left behind.

Lin Ran suddenly stopped. Of course, he was not afraid of these limping statues, but because he realized that when these statues ran over, they were kicking something white and round.

On the desolate ground, a few statues kicked the round thing all the way over like footballers.

However, when Lin Ran saw the thing they were kicking at, his expression changed instantly. It was the head of the headless armor!

At this moment, the headless armor was still struggling. As its “head” got closer and closer, the intensity of its struggle was clearly increasing.

“We can’t let him get his head!”

Lin Ran shouted and immediately rushed towards the statues. In a daze, he seemed to hear Liu Hongshan shout, “No!” However, his Yin-Yang Sword had already been sheathed and instantly cut the statues into two!

Crack!

The broken statues fell to the ground and shattered into pieces. Countless broken bones and the sandalwood-like fragrance spread.

The corners of Lin Ran’s mouth twitched. “That’s it?”

“Lin Ran! You’re in big trouble!”

Liu Hongshan roared and landed on the ground. He looked at the shattered bones on the ground with a serious expression. “I told you not to attack. Why didn’t you listen?!”

“If I dawdle any longer, it’ll get its head!”

Lin Ran pointed at the armet on the ground. At this moment, it was only two to three steps away from the headless armor.

After a pause, Lin Ran looked at the statue fragments on the ground and said, “Besides, this thing doesn’t seem to have much power. I just wanted to deter them from approaching the armet, but I didn’t expect it to be so fragile. You must be mistaken. How can the Undying Army be so trash?”

“You still don’t understand?”

Liu Hongshan glared at Lin Ran angrily. “Smell your body!”

Lin Ran subconsciously looked down at his body. His shirt had been torn by the armor, and now that a large amount of dust was stuck to his body by sweat, it didn’t look like it was going to smell good.

Lin Ran rolled his eyes at Liu Hongshan and said angrily, “Why? Do you think you are cleaner than me?”

“Did I say anything about being clean? Smell it carefully again!”

Lin Ran forced himself to smell his body again. Then, his expression turned strange. Amidst the strong smell of sweat, he vaguely smelled something similar to sandalwood.

“Is this the smell from the statue?”

Lin Ran looked at the clay fragments on the ground and probed, but he still looked puzzled. “But so what? I’ll just go back and take a shower.”

“Can you still go back?”

Liu Hongshan suddenly revealed a sad smile and narrowed his eyes as he looked in a certain direction. “We’ve been marked. Now, they won’t run around aimlessly.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a rumbling sound came from afar, as if thunder was rumbling in the distant sky.

However, Lin Ran knew that it was impossible for there to be thunder here. He turned around and followed Liu Hongshan’s gaze to look into the distance. He saw that the group of clay statues had returned!

From the direction of the statue army, it was obvious that they were coming for the two of them.

However, Lin Ran still didn’t take it seriously. He grabbed the hilt of his sword. “So what if they come back? I’ll just wipe them out all at once!”

“Don’t be too confident.”

Liu Hongshan pondered and said in a solemn tone, “Do you remember how they revived in the beginning?”

At the mention of this, Lin Ran blushed. “Can we get over that? I didn’t do it on purpose!”

“You know very well if you did it on purpose or not, but that’s not what I want to say.”

Liu Hongshan replied coldly. The aura on his body began to rise steadily, and countless small electric arcs jumped on Thunderball. “I don’t know why, but I think this smell is the key. There might be a tough battle ahead.”

Lin Ran couldn’t help but feel a little nervous. Looking at the mud-yellow figures rushing over from afar, he felt that it was as terrifying as a group of demons from hell!

However, this emotion did not last long.

Almost in the next second, the group of mud-yellow figures suddenly split into three groups. The largest two of the three groups ran towards left and right, leaving the third group made of a dozen or so statues that were still charging at Lin Ran and Liu Hongshan.

“Trying to outflank us?”

As soon as Lin Ran finished speaking, he knew that it wasn’t the case. This was because the two groups on the left and right had split up again, and most of them had already run further away.

“Is this the tough battle you mentioned?”

Lin Ran looked at the embarrassed Liu Hongshan and mocked angrily, “Forget your useless analysis. They’re just a group of brainless soldiers.”

This time, Liu Hongshan did not retort. With a light sweep of Thunderball in his hand, more than ten electric arcs flew out and instantly shattered the dozen or so statues in front of him.

“Smash the armor and leave immediately. I don’t want to stay in this godforsaken place for another moment!”

After saying that, Liu Hongshan walked towards the headless armor with a dark expression. Lin Ran sneered and was about to follow when he suddenly felt that the ground under his feet was a little strange.

Lin Ran subconsciously looked down and realized that the fine gravel on the ground was slowly flowing like water…
