Capítulo 172: Upstairs 2

The statue that was sneak-attacked by the skeletons went flying and was already close to death.

After doing a few pitiful slashing attacks with its claws it died miserably, contributing almost nothing to the fight. The skeletons had a few scratches on their armour but that was it.

It seems these statues were designed to fight against living targets, causing damage over time effects with their poison and then bleeding them to death.

There was one thing though which didn't make sense to Jay: the stone statues were magic resistant, so how could they cast spells?

Looking a little more closely at the one casting a spell, Jay found the answer.

They were invisible at first, but as mana was pushed into spells some faint blue veins spread over the statue’s arm. It seemed they were coated in some sort of mana-conducting material.

“Interesting…” Jay sneakily squinted at it.
