Keeper-level relic, Rain-Praying Stone Statue!"

Miss Bernice recognized what this was faster than Xia De and Luweiya. Luweiya understood immediately and explained to Xia De, who didn't know this kind of relic, at a fast speed:

"This was originally a mysterious phenomenon that could not be explained. When rain was about to come, such a statue would appear in an inconspicuous corner of the location where it was about to rain. These were local legends in the early Fifth Era. Later, this kind of legend was spread to the entire material world, so some people who thirsted for rain would take the initiative to carve such a statue to achieve the purpose of praying for rain. No one can explain clearly whether it was the long-term prayer of an era that put the cart before the horse, or just a coincidence, which made these statues become relics in the Sixth Era, possessing the characteristic of inevitably causing heavy rain or heavy snow once they appear. Besides containment, destroying them can also end their effects, and destroying is not damaging the relic; the Rain-Praying Demon Statue is only temporarily expelled from the material world. But fortunately, the composition of the rain caused by these statues is exactly the same as the liquid environment they are in, so you only need to investigate..."

Miss Bernice widened her eyes:

"So that's it, the appearance of this statue is to spread those polluted muddy waters!"

"How large is the relic's range of influence?"

Xia De asked.

"How big the statue itself is, how big the coverage range is. Now it is winter, I am afraid it is going to snow heavily!"

Luweiya looked at that giant stone statue very seriously:

"In the information I saw, a statue this large has never appeared. Generally speaking, the size of this kind of statue is about the same as a palm, which happens to be able to cover the urban area of a city like Randall Valley. According to the volume of the demon statue in front of me, Randall Valley and the surrounding areas will all be harmed."

And once those black muds touch normal land, normal land will soon be transformed into Crazy Earth, and those black muds are very terrifying pollution sources.

Since Miss Bernice and Luweiya both recognized what this was, the Ringed Shushi in the church camp on the opposite bank naturally recognized what this was. After a moment of reaction and judgment, the ritual originally used to purify Crazy Earth was stopped, and the ritual used to seal and contain the relic was quickly prepared.

Purifying the land under this great lake would take at least a night, and containing the relic, if prepared quickly, would take half an hour to an hour. Wanting to destroy such a giant demon statue was even more impossible; volume determines strength. Although the 【Rain-Praying Demon Statue】 is more fragile and easier to destroy than most relics, this is a relic after all.

"Even if they are cultists who believe in 【Stone Heart Demon】, it is absolutely impossible for them to know how to summon such a statue. They do not possess the possibility of being artificially called. The association has had research on whether these statues appear, which follows fate. It can only be said that even without cultists, such things would definitely happen here."

Luweiya was still analyzing, and fine snowflakes had already fallen from the sky. These fine snows were not stained with much black mud at this time, but soon disastrous consequences would appear. This is a real disaster.

Besides containing the relic and destroying it itself, moving this giant Rain-Praying Demon Statue away from Eldron Lake is also an effective means to avoid bad things from happening. The Ringed Shushi of the church obviously thought of this, but with the appearance of the giant statue, the effect of "Crazy Earth" seemed to be amplified. Even if it is a high-tier Shushi, once entering the lake area, they will be immediately affected. And casting spells directly from the lake shore to affect the lake water, the spellcasting effect will be sharply weakened.

The characteristic of "Crazy Earth" directly petrifying souls will seriously affect the spellcasting effect of Ringed Shushi, so even if you carry the pollution of the earth and move forward, it won't work.

The light of the divine ritual shone on the opposite bank of the lake, almost illuminating the night sky into daylight. When Xia De squinted and looked up, he vaguely saw a figure holding a long staff, in the high sky of the camp, waving the long staff toward the giant

demon statue.

Accompanied by a sharp whistling sound that was almost about to pierce the eardrums, the translucent golden wooden staff hit the demon statue's head, but nothing happened. Only the pitch-black lake water with floating broken ice rippled again. Obviously, the church's plan to directly solve this demon statue also failed.

The church camp temporarily didn't think of any means, and could only prepare for the containment ritual and ask for help from the church in the city, while continuing to try to freeze the great lake. If the Rain-Praying Demon Statue contacts normal lake water, even if it snows heavily for two or three days locally, it won't be any problem.

"So, in this situation, 'Power of Earth' is needed to solve the trouble."

Miss Bernice said. What she referred to was not Xia De's "Power of Earth · Healing Aura." The area of Eldron Lake covered by Crazy Earth was really too large. Even if Xia De drank all the essence in the pink small bottle, it might not be completely purified.

Moreover, there is that Rain-Praying Stone Statue now. The existence of the relic will greatly reduce the effect of "Healing Aura."

"Abundance Domain also cannot solve the current situation."

Luweiya said, and the witch looked up slightly at the demon statue in the great lake, showing a confident expression:

"So this time I will solve the problem. I have already mastered the 【Power of Earth · Summon Stone Statue】 harvested at the Stone Mason Association. This is indeed the miracle most suitable for me."

Saying that, she took out a small stone statue from her robe pocket. This was just an ordinary stone statue, the kind sold in souvenir shops on the street, and it was the spellcasting material for the miracle:

"Xia De, Luweiya, I want to let you see what the effect of the Great Witch of Earth using the earth miracle with all her strength is. After tonight, no one will be able to say that I am not good at combat."

Saying that, she let Xia De and Luweiya step back, and the witch felt a little distressed and pulled off one of her long hairs to wrap around the small stone statue, and then threw it into the pitch-black lake water floating with broken ice with great force—

Splash!

The water surface rippled with slight ripples. The witch raised her two hands to her chest, separated her fingers slightly, and her ten fingers touched in turn, but her palms did not touch, and then she closed her eyes.

Hot steam mist appeared in the snow, and the rotating eleven-ring destiny ring manifested the power of the Great Witch. Core spirit rune 【Earth】, miracle spirit rune 【Prayer】, whisper spirit rune 【Stone Statue】, blasphemy spirit rune 【Control】. Xia De didn't know the spirit runes and spellcasting means originally required by 【Power of Earth · Summon Stone Statue】, but it seemed that the witch of the earth made the miracle produce changes that met her requirements according to her knowledge.

The rapidly rotating destiny ring projected four-colored spiritual light to the position where the stone statue wrapped in the witch's hair fell into the water. In that light, the lake water actually bubbled again, and then the water body itself began to glow. The light gradually outlined a huge glowing pentagram pattern on the water surface, and around the pentagram, the holy emblems of the Ancient God 【Earth Mother】 and the Ancient God 【Chaos Witch】 were manifested respectively.

Xia De originally thought that the mutation of "Power of Earth" in his hands was big enough. It seems that he still underestimated the witch.

Accompanied by Miss Bernice chanting softly, the ground began to tremble slightly. Her incantation was like a song, the sound was not loud, but unexpectedly stable, and it spread very far.

The glowing pentagram ritual array gradually shrouded one-fifth of the Eldron Lake lake surface, and even the Ringed Shushi opposite the lake noticed this unusual scene:

"Power of Earth · Summon Stone Statue!"

A giant rock hand, holding a fist from the glowing pentagram ritual array, hit the sky. Then the giant hand pressed on the water surface, and then borrowed force to let the whole body emerge from the pentagram array.

The giant rock stone statue was summoned by Miss Vanessa Bernice. Although its legs were immersed in the lake water, its huge body could still be seen by everyone. In the increasingly violent dancing snow, even if the giant statue just stood there silently, it could give people a full sense of shock.

"It's really remarkable!"

Xia De praised behind her. Even if Xia De learned this miracle himself, he could only

summon a stone statue the size of a person. Even if he reached the eleven rings, it was impossible for the miracle effect to be consistent with the one in front of him. And Miss Bernice was indeed worthy of being the witch of the earth in the 【Witch Council】, being able to achieve this level within a week of obtaining the miracle.

The stone statue in front of him was not just large in size. The size of the body didn't mean much in the battle of high-tier Shushi. Xia De could feel that the surging power of the earth was gathering on the summoned stone statue.

The blonde witch's beautiful face showed extreme excitement and agitation at this moment. She pointed to the pitch-black Rain-Praying Demon Statue located in the center of Eldron Lake. Without opening her mouth to issue an order, the stone statue summoned by the witch rushed straight toward the other stone statue located in the center of the great lake.

The volume and height of the two were about the same, and even the stone statue summoned by Miss Bernice was taller. And the curse in the silt under the lake could not affect the stone statue summoned through "Power of Earth."

It was just that, while the blonde witch was directing her summon to try to move the Rain-Praying Demon Statue away from the great lake in the wind and snow, the right arm of the pitch-black demon statue that had been motionless suddenly trembled.

"Hmm? This relic can still move?"

The witch made the same question as Xia De, but only surprised for a moment, and then directed her summon to punch the pitch-black stone statue. After all, for a stone sculpture, piercing the chest was not a fatal injury.

The battle involving the supernatural of course was not just relying on strength to attack the other party. I don't know what power the witch attached to the stone statue, but the fist hit by the stone statue actually burst into raging flames.
