Chapter Twenty-Six: Death in the Jungle
The northern part of Xiaochang Town was also the main pit for mining in the early years, but it has long been abandoned after many years, leaving only some old equipment that has fallen into disrepair and rusty scattered piles along the roadside. Further inside, there is the mountainous area, and this is the only place around the mine that does not have a high fence.
In a short period of time, there were fierce battles and escapes, and Xia Yu's physical strength was losing dramatically.
But he didn't dare to slow down in the slightest.
Although Cui Dalong was injured, his strength was too strong after all, and the speed of the pursuit was not slow, Xia Yu was able to pull away some distance at the beginning, but he was quickly pulled closer later.
But gradually, Xia Yu felt that his body was close to the limit, and his legs were as heavy as if they had been filled with lead water.
How can I die here?
He gritted his teeth and continued to run, while subconsciously looking for places with obstacles.
Gradually, he ran deeper and deeper, and when he came to the foot of the North Mountain, he saw a small slope blocking him, and he turned over on his heels, and then suddenly turned around, raised his pistol and fired three shots in succession!
At this moment, he carried a murderous anger and unwillingness, like an enraged beast.
And at the moment when he urged the perception, a subtle line in his mind changed strangely again, and a mysterious and mysterious feeling struck again, only to see that at a distance of 80 meters away, these three shots almost went straight to Cui Dalong's eyebrows!
This is the new attack method that Xia Yu suddenly "realized" before.
In this mode, his perception seems to come to life, and his attack accuracy is greatly improved.
It's just that Cui Dalong's perception is too strong, and he can perceive energy fluctuations from afar.
He let out a loud cry and released the energy shield again in advance, easily blocking the three shots.
"Damn it!"
Xia Yu was also helpless, he was too tired to escape, and his only means of attack was not to take the other party.
This is also why most of the mechanism monks above 3 stars in this world are mainly long-range battles - if the distance is 100 meters, completely beyond the perceived distance of the 3-star mechanism monks, the enemy will naturally not be able to perceive your energy changes and respond in advance, so they can only passively protect.
But now in this situation, Cui Dalong can make a prediction in advance, and Xia Yu's threat to him is much smaller.
didn't know that Cui Dalong was extremely indignant in his heart.
I didn't expect to kill this little ghost in person, but I didn't succeed after chasing it for so long, except for blaming myself for being careless and getting hit in the knee, that kid kept using all kinds of terrain halfway, and he pulled out a few accurate shots, so he had to make a special defense.
As for his long-range attacks, he didn't hit the target, which is incredible!
He could only sigh that kid's luck was too good, but the 2-star beginner-level strength was not like he had cultivated any physical techniques and secret techniques, but it was slippery and difficult to hit.
"Little ghost, I see where else you can run!"
He still chased after him.
Turning over the dirt slope, Xia Yu ran again, and saw that there was a small mountain road winding on the left side in front of him, and a pit around the foot of the north mountain of the town on the right side, so he did not hesitate to choose the mountain road on the left.
That Cui Dalong was injured in the leg, and the climb must be slower!
Sure enough, as soon as he arrived at the foot of the mountain, Cui Dalong hesitated.
Further on is the jungle.
In the Federation, the jungle is always synonymous with mystery and danger.
He gritted his teeth, he couldn't have more jungle experience than that kid!
It's still very close to the mine, and the guards usually clean up some large beasts, and they haven't encountered 3-star beasts at all.
Pursue!
In this way, the two chased and fled, and continued to walk along the mountain road to the depths of the jungle.
I don't know how long I escaped.
Xia Yu's legs almost completely stopped obeying the call, almost instinctively stepping forward, and he didn't have the strength to turn around and shoot again.
However, today's successive encounters have made Xia Yu's state of mind change dramatically.
The law of the jungle occupied all his mind at this moment, and the desire to survive in his heart was also completely stimulated, supporting his body to run.
Gradually, he could no longer feel Cui Dalong's movement in the distance.
Fortunately, along the way, except for some ordinary animals that were not a threat, they did not encounter any truly dangerous beasts.
Hearing that there was really no movement behind, Xia Yu finally stopped.
He used to rely on all breath to hold on, both physically and sensually, at the moment like a squeezed sponge, dry to tear, his legs could not support his body at all, and he sat down on the ground at once.
Intense exhaustion and soreness came like a beast, but he didn't dare to sleep like this, it was too dangerous.
After barely resting for less than five minutes, a sound of rustling came from the side and back, and Xia Yu shot over and killed a green python with a thick arm again.
He was running out of bullets.
Fortunately, when urging the delicate perception control, his marksmanship has reached a good level, and he has solved a lot of beasts along the way.
But he has never gotten rid of Cui Dalong's tracking.
The guy was stronger than he thought he was, and he had a lot more experience in the jungle, and he always followed the trails he left behind, and on several occasions he almost wounded himself with that weird trap bolt.
Fortunately, after breaking through again before, a full 17 sensing tentacles came out together, although they could not detect distant movements, they could perceive every slight change in the surrounding airflow to the greatest extent.
Through the flow of air, he can often have a hint of instinct to dodge the crossbow arrows, or at least stagger the vital point.
After escaping for so long, his left shoulder was also grazed by a crossbow arrow, and the arrow was burning and painful.
His right foot was also a little lame, a stab wound left by a strange vine covered with barbs, which he struggled to break free.
Suddenly, he felt a movement in the distance again, and barely managed to get up and walk in again.
Cui Dalong was already vomiting blood in his heart.
His crossbow arrow has a range of more than 200 meters, but it misses every time, and now there are less than 5 arrows.
And the sharp pain of the wound invaded his physical strength even more, making him wonder if he would not be able to hold on before he caught the kid if he continued to chase him.
"This kid, he should be at the limit, right?
Looking at the traces left by Xia Yu in the grass in front of him, Cui Dalong hesitated.
Thinking of Lord Qinghu's promise again, he finally took out a small bottle from his arms, trembled and poured out 1 red pill from it, raised his head and swallowed it.
This bottle of "Red Pill" is his most precious treasure over the years, and it is said to have been the hand of a certain organ master from the Empire.
Only the organ master of the barbarian empire would make this kind of medicine made from the flesh and blood of some kind of fierce beast. But in any case, the effect of this pill is very strong, it can increase a person's blood qi and strength in a short time, and the previous 3 pills can be regarded as saving his life every time.
Now, for the sake of his future, he has decided to give up completely.
The gold medal killer of the blood blade, what treasure doesn't have?
Soon, Cui Dalong's almost oil-dried body seemed to be awakened, muscle activity was recovering rapidly, some muscles even bulged with a visible amplitude, and his face was a lot ruddy.
Suddenly, his speed nearly doubled, and he looked like a ferocious cheetah in the low bushes, slaying at its prey.
The "red pill" made Cui Dalong's speed increase sharply, and the effect of this medicine was powerful, but it lasted less than five minutes, and it was generally used to escape at a critical time.
He didn't dare to delay, and followed the traces left by Xia Yu in the mountain jungle all the way, and after only two minutes, he sensed from a distance that a figure was slowly walking on the edge of a narrow stone cliff, it was Xia Yu.
His eyes flashed fiercely, but he didn't immediately activate the source-shot crossbow. Today's luck is too bad, the attack at this distance has missed many times in front of this kid, and he can only get closer.
110 m ...... 100 m ......
Suddenly, Xia Yu, who was walking slowly, noticed that something was wrong, glanced at this side from a distance, and was suddenly shocked!
Why is this Cui Dalong suddenly so close!
At this moment, he didn't dare to reserve it at all, and the last bit of strength he had accumulated after walking slowly for a while all exploded, rushing along the mountain wall that was not too wide!
Cui Dalong no longer suppressed his breath, and suddenly accelerated his pace again, faintly reaching the level before the injury.
In the jungle, the speed of the two was quickly reduced.
80 meters!
70 meters!
Xia Yu was terrified in his heart, Cui Dalong's speed was too fast!
He gritted his teeth fiercely, and once again forcibly mustered the last bit of strength, trying to speed up a little faster, but his body, which had really run out of oil, could no longer squeeze out a trace of strength.
Under the forcible lifting, his leg muscles suddenly sore, his body tilted abruptly, and the whole person fell down the steep cliff on the other side of the mountain wall.
Yes!
Xia Yu let out a roar of despair, wanting to reach out and grab some stone pillars but was completely too late, and his almost unconscious body fell down the cliff.
The cliff is not too steep, but there are rocks and thorns everywhere, Xia Yu's body keeps tumbling and sliding down, I don't know how many gravels he hit along the way, and the whole person is also confused, and there is only the last trace of clarity left in his mind.
Myself, are I going to die again?
I'm really unwilling this time......
