Chapter 152: Test
Su Lun hesitated for a moment, preparing to step forward. Chris grabbed his arm suddenly. “Will there be a problem?”
As a Succubus, she was very wary of the Demiplane before them. After all, in history, some people had deliberately set such traps, and rushing in carelessly could very well lead one into a trap.
Su Lun patted Chris’s arm to comfort her. “Don’t worry, here is safe; it’s not a trap.”
“Soon, I’ll go in first. You guys wait outside. After I make sure it’s safe, you can enter.”
Chris and Heatherway looked at each other and nodded. “Okay!”
Spell radiances lit up one after another. Various buff spells were applied to the three of them. After all the buffs were fully stacked, Su Lun then walked towards the light pillar at the center of the platform.
Su Lun arrived beside the light pillar, turned back to wave at the two, and then said to the Wind Djinn beside him, “Start!”
“The game begins!”
“Activating Mirror World!”
“Creating mirror characters!”
“Opening regional simulation map!”
“Mirror World ready!”
“Begin entering Mirror World!”
…
A spell radiance flashed. Su Lun’s figure disappeared from that spot. When he opened his eyes again, he had already appeared in another world.
Su Lun moved his body a bit. This world didn’t seem much different from the Prime Material World, except the spatial range was limited. Roughly estimating, this world was at most four square kilometers. He could see the boundaries of this world at a glance.
And this body of his should be a fake one too, but it was strangely simulated so well. Only one thing wasn’t done right—it failed to simulate his overwhelming handsomeness. It imitated only the surface, lacking the essence. Still, it would take my handsome soul to make up for it.
Apart from the body, Su Lun also obtained a longsword, a scimitar, a spear, and a bow and arrows. When he tried to use his Storage Space, he was told it couldn’t be used. Moreover, all his Legendary skills and traits had disappeared. His current strength was that of a Knight Captain.
“Characters generated.”
“Your strength is limited to Third Tier.”
“Releasing trial monsters!”
Ghostly figures appeared out of thin air. Various materials rapidly filled in. In just a few breaths, numerous monsters had appeared in this space.
The spell radiance faded. In front of Su Lun, a group of behemoths three meters tall emerged. They looked like humanoid creatures piled out of rocks, with human-like features, limbs, torso, and head, all made of stone.
“Stone Golems!?” As the spell radiance dissipated, fifty Stone Golem puppets appeared.
The fifty stone puppets woke up immediately after the spell radiance faded, their eyes glowing red and locking onto Su Lun.
“Invader detected.”
“Eliminate enemy!”
“Kill the invader!”
The Stone Golems’ heavy bodies began to move. Each step left deep footprints on the ground. When fifty Stone Golems moved together, it felt like the sky was collapsing and the earth was shattering. The ground trembled. Any trees or stones in their way were flattened directly.
“Damn it, alone against a Golem Legion?” Seeing the rushing Stone Golems, Su Lun didn’t even think about it and turned to run. That was ridiculous; his strength was only Knight Captain level now, and any one of these Stone Golems was at least Knight Captain level. He could maybe fight one or two, but fifty coming together would crush him flat.
Actually, Constructs like Golems were the most annoying. They were immune to poison, sleep, paralysis, stun, disease, instant death, and all mind spells. They had Darkvision, and nothing like critical hits, bruises, stat damage, stat drain, tiredness, exhaustion, or energy drain could hurt them. They ignored anything that needed a toughness check unless it was safe or worked on objects. They wouldn’t die easily just for being badly hurt.
They could fight forever until their energy ran out. It could be said that a Construct Golem was way harder to deal with than a fighter of the same level.
Su Lun raised his hand and shot an arrow.
“Clang!”
The arrow hit the Stone Golem’s head but only left a shallow scar. The arrow bounced right off.
“Damn it, not even scratching it!”
Seeing this, Su Lun’s face turned even darker. Construct Golems had two really nasty passive talents: one made them ignore low-level physical damage, and the other ignored low-level magic damage. Clearly, his kite-and-hit plan had failed.
“Boom!”
A stone ball smashed right beside Su Lun, sending rock bits flying everywhere. Su Lun had just dodged it when more stone balls came at him. Su Lun rolled clumsily on the ground, then kept running for his life.
These Stone Golems looked a bit slow and awkward, but their movement speed was just fine. The Mirror Space wasn’t big, so Su Lun leading a bunch of Stone Golems was like dragging a train.
After dragging the Stone Golems around two laps, they finally spread out. Seeing this, Su Lun changed directions again. The three Stone Golems closest behind him fell a bit back from the others. Su Lun pulled out his spear, aimed at the nearest Stone Golem, and hurled it with all his strength.
“Lightning Spear!”
“Bang!”
The spear flew like lightning and hit that Stone Golem. Rocks shot into the air as the spear sank deep into the golem’s leg. Su Lun dashed ahead fast, swinging his longsword, and hacked straight at that leg.
“Heavy Slash!”
“Quick Strike!”
Crash! The Stone Golem’s leg broke off clean.
That Stone Golem weighed around a ton and slammed to the ground hard. Su Lun felt his hand go a bit numb, like when you chop at stone with a knife. The jolt was full force. Honestly, fighting things like Stone Golems was best with heavy weapons or a Supernatural Weapon; using normal stuff against them was pure pain.
Su Lun blinked and appeared right next to this Stone Golem. He swung his longsword again and again, sending wild chops one after another at the golem’s connection points.
Within seconds, the joints of this Stone Golem were under savage attack. After more than ten chops, the stone puppet’s joints finally cracked apart. Just as he got ready to really tear this thing up, two stone balls flew at him.
He rolled away from the stone ball. Su Lun didn’t have time for a finishing move; he grabbed his spear and ran. If he didn’t go now, he’d get squashed.
He barely dodged the stone ball and hadn’t even stood up when he felt a sharp pain in his back. That force threw him rolling forward. Gritting through the hurt, he kept escaping. Once he got beyond the Stone Golems’ reach, Su Lun finally relaxed. Those stone balls felt like small catapults—taking one hit would be no joke.
