“Is this the miracle building? It truly is extraordinary.”

In the vast night, filled with a touch of surprise and curiosity, Leo Ray circled around the newly completed colossal structure, and couldn’t help but sigh. This new building, called the “Guardian Defense Mechanism,” was slightly shorter than the two-story Lord’s Mansion, but it occupied a much larger area.

At first glance, the entire building was a regular hexagon, like a standard hexagonal prism, looking angular and square.

Upon closer observation, every vertical wall of the building had a door at least three meters high. At the moment, all six doors were closed.

What was most astonishing was that despite the building’s rough stone structure, its surface was inlaid with numerous smooth metal lines.

The combination of the two formed various peculiar patterns and designs, like the magic arrays in games. Under the moon’s light, they reflected a strange and cold light.

In short, the entire building gave a solemn and majestic impression, indeed very different from other buildings.

At this point, Leo Ray curiously approached the nearest stone door.

Simultaneously, as if sensing his arrival, the enormous stone door slowly opened, emitting a rumbling sound.

On the other side, Scarlett, who saw Lord Ray enter, quickly followed, her pretty face filled with excitement.

Being able to behold the inside of a miracle building like this, even in the Magic Tower teeming with all kinds of geniuses and monsters, might be a rare occurrence!

Once inside, Leo Ray found that the structure of the building was straightforward, without any partitions, just a single spacious hall.

Looking around, the interior walls were covered with various patterns, and unlike the exterior, these bizarre patterns emitted a faint blue light, providing a dim glow inside the room.

However, these were not the most important things; what was more eye-catching was that:

Inside the hall, there were eighteen identical, life-sized stone statues that could match Taylor in height. They were all dressed as heavily armored warriors holding heavy swords and shields, exuding an imposing and intimidating aura like a miniature army, causing people to feel reverence. “My Lord, these are Earth Guardians! There are so many of them!” Scarlett couldn’t help but exclaim, her face filled with surprise.

“Earth Guardians?” Hearing this, Leo Ray showed a curious expression.

“My Lord, Earth Guardians are advanced magic puppets with formidable combat abilities. Their resistance to magic is extraordinary, and their physical defenses are also strong,” Scarlett said excitedly, looking up at the gigantic sculpture in front of her, continuing: “When I was studying in the Magic Tower, I had the privilege of witnessing an elder summon one.

With his Tier 4 Five-Star Earth Magic Instructor strength, he could only summon eight at most, and it couldn’t last for more than a day.

But it seems like these before us can exist permanently, which is unheard of,”

Scarlett finished speaking and curiously squatted down, continuing to observe.

Soon enough, she seemed to have discovered something, pointing at the base of the statue and thoughtfully said, “My Lord, please look. There seems to be faint magic energy fluctuations at the base of these statues.

I analyze that it is this device that gives the Earth Guardians their permanent magical power.

And the peculiar magic arrays on the walls should serve as energy converters, transforming sunlight or moonlight into magical power and continuously supplying the energy to the base.”

After hearing Scarlett’s words, Leo Ray suddenly realized, murmuring to himself: “Well, isn’t this building just like a large solar charging station?

Moreover, it comes with 18 charging bases and 18 loyal subordinates who do not need to eat or sleep but require charging.”

At this moment, Leo Ray’s face showed an expectant expression, “Based on Scarlett’s description, the power of these Earth Guardians shouldn’t be too far off, but how exactly? ”

With that thought, he quickly checked the attributes of all the statues one by one.

[Name: Earth Guardian a]

[Occupation: Demon Breaker Warrior][Rank: Tier 2 Five-star]

[Energy: 100%]

[Skill: Intermediate Magic Barrier ‘Passive’ (70% reduction in spell damage)]

[Hint: Upgrading the building level can further enhance the strength and quantity of Earth Guardians.]

“Goodness, eighteen identical Tier 2 five-star subordinates? And with such high magic damage reduction.

If we just do a simple conversion, the combat power of these 18 guardians would be at least equivalent to 200-300 elite Tier 1 soldiers, right?”

Delighted, Leo Ray’s gaze fell onto the last hint.

He clearly understood that unlike ordinary buildings, both Miracle Buildings and Lord’s Mansion can be upgraded as long as sufficient resources are available.

“It seems that upgrading here means increasing the combat power of the guardians and expanding their numbers.

I wonder how powerful these guardians will become if they continue to be upgraded?”

While contemplating, Leo Ray opened the building interface again.

[Guardian Defense Mechanism Lv: 1]

[Owner: Leo Ray ‘ID: 0013076067’]

[Earth Guardian Quantity: 18/18]

[Building Special Effect One: Guardian Charging IVI ‘Can charge Earth Guardians’]

[Building Special Effect Two: Guardian Creation IVI ‘If the Earth Guardians are destroyed, new Earth Guardians can be created (CD: 12h)’]

[Upgrade Materials Required: Stone X18000, Iron Ore X15000, Obsidian x500]

“Just like the Light Crystal Stone, another Level 2 rare resource? It seems that upgrading Miracle Buildings isn’t that easy.”

With a slight curl of his lips, did some more research on the specific instructions from the interface, finding that these guardians were just like ordinary subordinates.

Although they couldn’t speak and didn’t have thoughts, they could understand most of his commands.

Moreover, they also had remote notification capabilities to promptly transmit danger signals to him and would not cause harm to other subordinates or submissive races within the territory.

Next, after a brief contemplation, Leo Ray divided the 18 guardians into 6 groups.

Of these, one group defended the Lord’s Mansion, one group patrolled the territory, and the remaining four groups were responsible for guarding the four directions of the territory: east, south, west, and north.

Without a doubt, with sufficient energy,

these Guardians could provide 24-hour non-stop security for the territory, promptly detecting and dealing with threats, further enhancing the safety of the territory.

“Alright, let’s get to work.”

After arranging the tasks for all six groups of guardians, Leo Ray gently clapped his hands.

Boom boom boom.

Immediately after, the six doors in the spacious hall opened simultaneously, and all the guardians simultaneously raised their heavy swords and large shields, walking orderly towards the outside.

On the other side, when the other subordinates in the territory, especially those like Gavin Sullivan, who had to spend countless hours each day staring at them,

saw these tall, imposing colossal stone statues taking heavy and powerful steps, moving uniformly past them,

they couldn’t help but open their mouths wide, with eight big characters floating in their minds.

The Lord is such a terror!
