"What is this?" Merlin was stunned when he saw a bunch of movable statues.
"It's a magic puppet!" Kai knew this kind of thing, and it was not common outside. However, the reason why it is not common is not because of how powerful this thing is. On the contrary, in the major civilizations that Kai has experienced, the evaluation of magic puppets is very average. This thing is expensive, cumbersome to make, slow to move, and has extremely weak adaptability. To put it bluntly, its cost performance is very low. And to be honest, their combat power can only be used to bully weak chickens. If a strong person encounters them, it is very easy to defeat ten of them. After all, with their slow movements, it is simply a dream to beat the masters.
Of course, this does not mean that this thing has no effect at all. On the contrary, this thing is quite powerful against ordinary people.
"Everyone, be careful not to come into contact with these things, but they move very slowly. As long as you don't get hit by them, you'll be fine. When attacking them, attack their joints, especially their feet. As long as they can't move, there's no danger."
Instead of using a sword, Kai snatched a halberd from one of the guards.
Without any beeps, Kai wielded his halberd and chopped off the head of a magic puppet. Seeing that these things were so easy to deal with, the others immediately became more courageous and rushed towards the magic puppets with weapons in hand.
Perhaps the demonstration given by Kai was too easy, which led these guys to think that these puppets were just fake, so they all tried to imitate Kai and kill them with one hit, but they were in bad luck. Although the joints of these puppets were indeed fragile, But that's relative. No matter what, these puppets are all made of marble, and it's really difficult for an incompetent person to kill him like Kai.
After a few people used their own lives to serve as negative teaching materials, the remaining people also remembered Kai's previous reminder. They no longer overestimated their capabilities and ran to kill with one hit, but patiently wandered around. Take the chance and give those puppets a few knuckles.
The hardness of marble is indeed good, but in the end it is still rock. It is hard enough, but it is still too brittle and will always break if you hit it hard.
And because of Kai's decisive decision before, he blew the police whistle and a large number of support arrived soon. A group of soldiers hit a magic puppet with halberds and quickly destroyed the puppet.
In fact, puppets are just a little scary in appearance. If they are frightened and just want to run away, these puppets are simply invincible. But if you don't feel afraid of them, these things are actually some stupid big guys with limited mobility. As long as you are willing to use your brain, they are not difficult to deal with at all.
For example, some smarter soldiers thought of trapping these puppets with ropes. These puppets have very low IQs. They can go around obstacles, but they don't know how to go around the ropes under their feet, because in their poor reaction mechanism, they have no reaction to the ropes, so a few soldiers use a few of the best A simple trap can knock down several puppets.
As soon as they fall to the ground, these things become live targets. A group of soldiers can smash them into pieces in minutes if they find some hammers and the like.
So the puppets that ran out of the potholes were quickly dealt with.
But soon, more puppets rushed out of the pit. God knows why there are so many of these things down there.
As the fighting became more intense, more and more reinforcements arrived. Even father and son Arthur and King Uther were alarmed.
King Uther came in person with the knights. When he saw puppets pouring out of the pits, King Uther's face turned ugly.
"Kai! Where did these things come from?" King Uther quickly found Kai who was organizing a defense line. Kai must move all the surrounding civilians away while they can still stop the puppets near the potholes. .
Unfortunately, it is not that difficult to do so.
It's past eleven o'clock in the evening. If we were in a modern city, many people would still be watching TV dramas, going online, shopping and singing karaoke. But this is Camelot in BC, and the nightlife is extremely poor. At this point, most families Go to bed early.
Therefore, Kai did not participate too much in the battle, but kept evacuating people from the rear.
When I heard King Uther's question, I really didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He worked tirelessly to help the old man clean up the mess, but he didn't expect that the old man had already arrived and didn't know anything about this place.
"Have you forgotten that it was you who ordered the excavation of Saigon's tomb? These things all escaped from there..."
King Uther was also choked. If Kai hadn't said it, he would have forgotten...
"Could it be...that they really..."
Before King Uther could finish speaking, Kai nodded.
"Yes, these guys really dug up the tomb..."
King Uther was also stupid at this time. How did he know that there were these things in the tomb?
Seeing that King Uther was still in a daze, Kai immediately said: "Now is not the time to discuss this. These things must be cleared away immediately, otherwise Camelot will suffer great losses."
Although these puppets are nothing to Kai, and they are not even difficult to deal with for the soldiers and knights in the city, the problem is different for the common people. These things are really harmful to them.
King Uther was also a decisive person and immediately began to organize manpower. In these years, except for the queen's affairs, he has never regretted anything else. If he does it, he does it. If he makes a mistake, he makes a mistake. Can someone bite him? Being a king means being so pissy!
With the arrival of a large number of support, everything is developing for the better. Although Camelot's losses will not be small this time, to the wealthy King Uther, this loss is really nothing. So although the scene was a bit chaotic, people's hearts were not, and everyone had confidence in Camelot.
Arthur also led people to the front line. At this moment, Arthur had not recovered from the previous blow. He was a little embarrassed to face King Uther and Kai, so he could only vent his frustration on those puppets.
But something unexpected happened, and just when things were looking good, a strong wind suddenly blew.
Tonight was originally a rare clear night in winter. The moon was sparse and cloudless. If the Celts had not had the habit of admiring the moon, it is estimated that many people would have come out to admire the moon. But as soon as the strong wind blew, dark clouds suddenly spread across the sky, and the entire land fell into darkness.
"What's going on?" The arrival of the dark clouds was too sudden. One second, everyone didn't even need to light a torch, and the visibility was ridiculously high, but the next second, it became impossible to see anything.
Only Merlin and Kai turned their heads to look at the entrance of the tunnel, as if they were being stared at by wild beasts.
There, a middle-aged man wrapped in black mist stood there, looking at them with a look of disdain on all living beings, just like a man looking at the ants under his feet.
