The Advanced Demon Statue has two long horns on its head.

This monster was nearly five meters tall, with a head the size of a water vat, two long horns that were a meter long, and a wrist as thick as a short sword!

Of course, both horns are made of hard metal, which is indestructible to ordinary people... But Luo Jun's strength is dozens of times that of an ordinary person. If he goes all out, he might be able to break them!

The key is to find the opportunity!

Next, while dodging the golem's attacks, he observed the situation and finally found an opportunity after circling around for a few steps. He dodged the axe, leaped onto the golem's shoulder from behind, grabbed a long horn with both hands, kicked its head with one foot, and twisted it forcefully!

It's incredibly sturdy! Even with Luo Jun's strength, it couldn't be shaken!

The monster, sensing the enemy above, stretched out a large hand to grab it.

Luo Jun dodged while continuing to exert force, but he still couldn't break the long horn.

My strength alone is probably not enough. Even with dice, the difficulty would likely be over 95 points, so the chances are slim...

Luo Jun's mind raced, and suddenly an idea struck him. Taking advantage of the moment when the golem reached out to grab him, he suddenly jumped off its shoulder, and then, taking advantage of the golem's unsteady footing, pounced on one of its legs!

"Trip the Golem!"

"Ding! Event Difficulty 72 points, Final Points 69 + 5 points, Event Success!"

Marvelous!

Luo Jun was prepared for repeated failures and rolls of the dice, but unexpectedly succeeded on his first try! With the dice as a guarantee, he felt confident and mustered all his strength, wrapped his arm around the golem's ankle, and pushed with all his might!

This caused the golem to lose its balance and fall face-first to the ground!

Bang!

With a deafening roar, the massive body, weighing over ten tons, slammed into the hard Trial Grounds, causing the ground to tremble. The long, forward-pointing horn struck the ground squarely, unable to withstand the immense impact, bending at the base and showing signs of cracking where it connected to the head.

Marvelous!

Overjoyed, Luo Jun saw that the monster was about to rise up. He didn't even bother to check the experience information in his mind. He rushed forward, grabbed the long horns with both hands, and kicked the golem's head with both feet.

"Break the Long Horn!"

"Ding! Event Difficulty 57 points, Final Points 30 + 5 points, Event Failed!"

Even after failing, Luo Jun did not give up. He twisted the horn with force, and the long horn bent with his strength. Although it did not break, metal fatigue had already accumulated!

"Twist again!"

"Ding! Event Difficulty: 42 points; Final Points: 38 + 5 points; Event Success!"

Although his luck wasn't great the second time either, the difficulty of Break the Long Horn was greatly reduced due to metal fatigue. With Luo Jun exerting force in the opposite direction, there was a cracking sound, and the thick, long Demon Horn was finally twisted off!

The sudden break left him exhausted, and he fell off the golem's head. By then, the golem had almost stood up and reached out to grab Luo Jun!

With nowhere to catch up in mid-air and dodging difficult, activate the dice!

"Evade the Grab!"

"Ding! Event Difficulty: 61 points; Final Points: 67 + 5 points; Event Success!"

Luo Jun brandished his long horn, jabbed at the golem's outstretched hand, and used the recoil to retreat in mid-air, dodging the grab.

At the same time, a notification sound came from my mind.

"Event ' Break the Long Horn ' Successfully Completed, Event Difficulty 42 points, Severity Coefficient 4x, Final Experience 168 points."

"Event ' Evade the Grab ' Successfully Completed, Event Difficulty 61 points, Severity Coefficient: Dozens of Times, Final Experience Points: 610."

Four times the Severity Coefficient?

In Luo Jun's calculations, obtaining the golem's horns was a crucial step in completing the challenge. He figured the Severity Coefficient should be at least eight times, if not ten times... so why only four times? Was his plan wrong?

Landing with questions in his mind, and seeing the golem turn and pounce on him, Luo Jun decisively retreated from the arena. He needed to regroup...

As he left, the golem returned to the center of the arena as if time had reversed. Luo Jun felt his hand go empty and discovered that the broken horn had also disappeared. The two horns on the golem's head in the center of the arena were restored to their original state.

So that's how it is. The parts removed from the golem disappear when it respawns. That makes the fourfold Severity Coefficient quite intriguing.

If this Demon Horn is completely useless, the Severity Coefficient should be extremely low. If it is indeed the key to breaking the deadlock, then the Severity Coefficient should be higher... Four times is neither high nor low. It can be understood like this: if it is used in this round of challenges, its potential effect is great, but if the challenge is interrupted like before, then it is completely meaningless. Four times is the final severity factor that takes both situations into account!

From this perspective, my line of thinking is very likely correct!

Luo Jun calmed his breathing, looked at the Attribute Panel, and after several successes, he had less than 100 Experience Points points left to level up, and two dice rolls left.

After adjusting his state, he entered the arena and, to be on the safe side, used the dice during a relatively easy dodge.

"Event Difficulty 27 points, Final Points 82+5, Event Success!"

Congratulations on leveling up!

"You can choose to upgrade an existing skill, or draw a skill."

"Please extract Attribute Points..."

Upon receiving the upgrade notification, Luo Jun immediately left the arena.

He's already level 25! But his stats are still at level 24. Luo Jun decides to draw skills first.

The skill that can be upgraded now is "More Opportunities," which should add one more use after upgrading... But for now, six uses aren't a problem; what he really needs is a higher success rate when rolling the dice.

After some consideration, Luo Jun decided not to rush into upgrading the number of uses, but to gamble on a new skill instead!

"Ding! Congratulations! Your Luck Level has increased by one!"

Luck Level? Luo Jun was taken aback. This level had only increased by one level after he first activated the dice, and hadn't changed since. The description said that the higher the Luck Level, the easier it was to roll a high number... In his long experience, to be honest, the experience of level six wasn't very noticeable, at least not as intuitive as the Point Correction.

I don't know how helpful Level 7 will be.

Since I've already made the choice, I won't think about it too much. I'll just draw the level 24 Attribute Points.

As the White Dice stopped spinning, it finally showed ten! (Author: God Dice, you're too kind!)

Is the effect really that immediate?

Luo Jun believes there won't be such a dramatic improvement, but overall it will definitely be effective.

The twenty-five attribute points are automatically allocated. Luo Jun's current attributes are as follows.

Level: 25 (177/2600)

Strength: 130 points

Sensitivity: 111 points

Perception: 108 points

Spirit: 117 points

Luck: Level 7

Skill: All Things are Dice, Intermediate Point Correction, Regret, More Opportunities (Level 1)

Item: Wealth Ring

Chips: 950

Number of uses: 6/6

The Luck Level was directly added to the character panel, but it wasn't listed separately in the skill bar. As for the level 25 attributes, I'll have to wait until tomorrow when the Intermediate Modification before trying to draw again.

The final deadline is the morning of the day after tomorrow, with six Intermediate Modification and three chances to Regret. Luo Jun already has a basic plan in mind; to be on the safe side, he must pass this final round of trials by dawn the day after tomorrow!

Before that, it was all about constant practice.

Fortunately, golems are similar to programmed robots and have little learning ability. As long as they keep practicing and memorizing patterns, they will become more and more proficient!

Feeling his body, now refreshed Energy Replenishment, Luo Jun took a deep breath and stepped into the Trial Grounds once more!
