Chapter 183 Stone

In addition to a large number of atonement points and holy silver coins, this leapfrog killing of monsters also brought 1,000 experience points to Malu.

These 1,000 experience points allowed him to upgrade two levels in a row, directly from lv5 to lv7. Not only that, the experience bar under lv7 was also filled in half.

Next time you only need to save 200 more experience points to level up again.

Malu then took a look at the upgrade rewards. Upgrading from level 5 to level 6 unlocked a prop called [Stone].

[Stone] As the name suggests, it is a stone, which can be placed on any grid to act as a roadblock.

However, unlike the two flags obtained before, [Stone] is not a virtual prop, but actually exists.

To further confirm, Malu also tested it when he dragged the stone from the item bar on the right to the square in front of him.

The next second, a 4×4×4 meter square stone actually appeared out of thin air.

The three witches couldn't help but widen their eyes, especially Skylark. Then they pinched their own thighs and let out a scream.

The Bird of Paradise looked around and asked, "Did any of you see how this stone appeared just now?"

"I know, it must have fallen from the sky!" Cerberus replied, "I heard that some stones will fall from the sky."

"You're talking about a meteorite, but this is obviously not a meteorite."

"Why can't it be a meteorite? You've never seen a meteorite."

"Because there are no known meteorites with such rules, and if a meteorite falls, the movement will not be so small."

The Bird of Paradise stepped forward and carefully tapped the stone with its wand. "This stone looks more like a man-made object. The evidence is that its length, width and height are exactly equal."

"Bliss, you are so amazing. You can actually observe so much from just one stone." The skylark beside him seemed to understand.

Bird of Paradise was already deep in thought, "I heard that people before the catastrophe liked to build some secret underground bases. Maybe we accidentally touched some mechanism... which led to an extra stone here.

"If we can decipher the secret, we might be able to enter the secret base and find out what's going on."

"No, you can't go." It was Malu who spoke this time, and his tone was very firm.

"Why?" Bird of Paradise frowned.

"Because I threw this stone here, and it has nothing to do with any underground secret base."

The red-haired girl was stunned when she heard this.

The Cerberus on the side held his stomach and laughed.

"Pfft hahahaha, I didn't expect you would be here today, Ji Le, hahahaha. I told you that the things you read in those books were not reliable at all."

"This has nothing to do with books," Bird of Paradise tried to maintain her composure and said in the same calm tone as usual, but the slightly red ears still betrayed the embarrassment in her heart.

Then she turned to look at Malu, "Sir Knight, you said you put this stone here, how are you going to prove it?"

"Well, how do you want me to prove it?"

"Take it back or move it somewhere else?"

"Oh, once this stone is put down, it can't be moved again. If you want to prove it, you can only wait until next time. I will come over and show it to you next time."

"Then it's settled," Bird of Paradise nodded, "I have doubts about your explanation until I see new evidence."

After saying that, she glanced at the Cerberus, which was already on its back with its feet in the air, with a slightly annoyed look.

In addition to the [Stone], Ma Lu also unlocked a new module after reaching level 7 - formation.

It contained five basic formations. Ma Lu took a rough look at it and wondered if it was because the word "basic" was in the name.

These five formations will improve one attribute at the expense of other attributes.

For example, after choosing this formation, the team's attack power will increase by 20%, and at the same time, its defense power will decrease by 20%.

Another example is the Iron Barrel Formation, which increases defense by 20% and reduces attack power by 20%.

There is also the Lotus Formation, the upper limit of HP is increased by 15%, and the upper limit of sin value is reduced by 15%...

In short, these basic formations mainly focus on tearing down the east wall to repair the west wall, but it has to be said that they can still play their respective roles when dealing with different situations.

But then something embarrassing happened again. Four people were needed to activate the formation, and these four people did not include the commander.

Malu scratched his head and asked the Bird of Paradise on the side, "Well, how do I recruit a new witch?"

As soon as he asked this question, Cerberus grabbed his neck, "Hey, do you think I'm not strong enough?!"

The joy of defeating a powerful enemy disappeared from Skylark's face when he heard this, and was replaced by a look of worry, "Sir Knight, do you want to change the witch?"

"It's not about replacing the witch, but adding one more person. If the three of them form a team, the battle will be a little harder," Ma Lu said.

"Then donate money." Among the three, only Bird of Paradise remained as calm as ever.

"Donate money to whom, the church?"

"Yes, as long as the donation exceeds 150,000 holy silver coins, you can choose another witch."

"Draw a card?" Ma Lu looked a little strange. One hundred and fifty thousand cards, the price is quite dark.

"What?"

"It's okay, I understand."

Malu then put the Thousand Faced Amorphophallus plant into the collection bag and returned to the Temple City an hour before the countdown ended.

He first went to the Knights to hand in the cleaning task, and planned to go back to the small apartment where he lived to rest for a while.

As a result, I heard the bell ringing while walking down the street.

Four sounds in total. Three long and one short.

Then the people around them dropped what they were doing and rushed in one direction.

Malu also followed because of curiosity.

Finally, we came to a circular square. In the center of the square, there was a wooden platform. Standing on the wooden platform was a girl. She looked not much older than Skylark and the others, probably in her early twenties.

He had flaxen hair, his clothes were dirty, and he probably hadn't showered in a month.

She was tied to a wooden pillar, and under the stage stood an old monk wearing a white robe. There were also two knights covered in armor like him, standing on both sides of the monk.

The old monk read aloud the crimes of the witch on the stage, including betraying the knights, colluding with heretics, blaspheming the gods, spreading lies, and deceiving people...

The crowd booed. I don't know who picked up a stone and threw it at the witch on the wooden platform. Then more and more people picked up the stone.

There were men, women, old people and children. They expressed their disdain for the betrayers in this way and vented the anger in their chests.

However, the witch on the stage did not know whether it was because she was too seriously injured during the interrogation, and she never raised her head.

When the people below had finished venting their anger, the old monk lit the wooden platform himself, and after a while the flames engulfed the figure above.
