Chapter 410: This Is My Escape Route! (2/3)
The most important armor and blade of a knight were shattered, and his own situation can be imagined.
Sensing that Ian might have been seriously injured, the momentum of the pursuing team decreased.
Chasing all the way, they have understood that there is a huge gap between their strength and Ian, at least in terms of various sword skills and marksmanship, Ian has done the best he can do at his age, and even these veterans who have been fighting for more than ten years can't say that they can win.
And now he found that even Ian couldn't fight against the mysterious raider Black Shadow, and even fell into disadvantage, even the armor was knocked off, and the sword was shattered!
Under such oppression, there were people who wanted to return and wait for reinforcements, also to save their lives.
- If you really run into each other, aren't they all stalks under the sickle, waiting for the fate of being cut down?
But there are also some who strongly demand that the pursuit continue. If you want to see people alive and corpses when you die, the reinforcements from Nauman City are already applying, and they will be able to catch up immediately, and they don't have to be afraid at all.
In particular, several teams who have been secretly ordered by Mr. Yinfang have persisted in pursuing all the way and have never stopped, they are the strength of the Chamber of Commerce itself, and they naturally and faithfully complete the tasks of their top bosses.
However, even the team of the Yinfang Chamber of Commerce ended up in a big river that flowed through and completely lost the clues of both sides.
On the banks of the Erbo River, which separates the Bison Mountains from the Agate Plains, you can only see white waves washing over its banks, and in the distance there is a rift valley where the river rushes down to form a waterfall, and the waves sweep in the wind, causing all the members of the team present to flutter their clothes and their armor tremble.
The drop of three hundred meters was so terrifying, and the moonlight shone on the mist from the waterfall, like a fog-shaped door, blocking all trackers.
- Ian and the assailant chased all the way here, jumping off the waterfall and into the depths of the Bison Mountains.
Both the pursuing and the pursued side have now completely lost their clues.
They can only turn back.
However, on the way back, a sharp-eyed adventurer saw in the distance, in the moonlit mountains, a large number of birds were frightened.
The battle continues.
In the distance, the white air rises in the forest, and the bright silver light pierces through the mist, and the clouds in the sky are curling, obscuring the moonlight and the mountains, making the night cover a corner of the Baissen Mountains.
Two black shadows shuttled rapidly through the forest, and the sleeping birds and beasts were suddenly awakened.
At this moment, the situation is reversed, Ian has become the fleeing side, and the dark shadow, which has shown some strength, pursues in turn.
However, the mood of the two sides is very different.
"Throwing down the shattered armor and blade fragments from the previous battle with Baron Ryan should be able to disguise my state even worse, and I don't need to explain why the armor is shattered later."
Although he had already fledgled with Fairy Wings, Ian was still thinking about how to rationalize some of his irrational problems through the hands of this unnamed pursuer.
At this moment, after such a period of chasing and reversing, Ian has roughly figured out some of the details of the other party.
On the surface, the opponent is a sublimator of some kind of earth-metal specialization, adept at using his sturdy body to block his attacks, and only when he is close to him will he try to suppress himself with his well-honed fighting and sword skills.
But in reality, this is not the case at all.
Ian had already seen the truth about the other party's abilities.
- It's electricity!
This mysterious sublimator uses electromagnetic control metal to cover the surface of his body, forming an incomparably strong steel body - and the high-speed movement of the other party is not really the high physical fitness of the earth-based sublimator Li Da Brick Fei, but the suspension traction controlled by electromagnetism!
"The next time I go to Nauman City, I'll go and inquire, there are a few good hands in Nanling that control thunder and lightning."
Ian didn't plan to expose his second-level power here.
Indeed, he was confident that after bursting out with all his strength, just like killing the deputy section chief of the Gnosis Academy, he would take advantage of the opponent's unpreparedness to instantly hit and kill the opponent - with the aether crystal's amplification power, his explosive power was already comparable to that of a strong person in the second energy level who specialized in this way.
But a sense of crisis told him that the identity of the other party was probably not ordinary, and his strength was definitely not comparable to that of the deputy section chief.
Whether it's exposing the aether crystal, or killing him, there's bound to be big trouble.
It's like if you kill the White Mist Bishop in the underground labyrinth, there will be a sense of crisis when the Archbishop of Tianyan comes to wash the floor.
In addition to this, there is another reason.
- He deliberately exposed his flaws this time and ran all the way to the deep mountains and old forests......
It's meant to 'lose'!
The other party.
The Black Shadow was extremely anxious.
He was tracking down Ian in the spare time of his mission, and now that he had been out for a long time, any longer would make him suspicious.
Not to mention, his pursuit of Ian is sure to attract the attention of the nobles of Nauman, and when the time comes, he may have to be in action - and it would have been fun if he wasn't there.
He couldn't afford to continue to drag on with Ian like this.
But here's where the anxiety lies.
He can't catch up with Ian!
"Damn, I've obviously used the power of the peak of the first energy level, why can't I catch up with this kid?"
"Goblins are fast and dexterous, I know that, but don't all human goblin bloodlines abandon this aspect of dexterity, and instead turn themselves into a kind of output specialized bloodline similar to the armor of a turret?"
"Why is this guy so agile, and Fairy Wings use the same as a real elf?"
"The young man is slender, similar to a goblin, so he takes advantage of it?"
The black shadow was very depressed, his real strength had a second energy level, if he broke out with all his strength, the speed was as fast as thunder, and he could be called the fastest in Nanling under the third energy level, but at this moment, in order to avoid revealing flaws, he didn't dare to rashly use all his strength.
He was confident that with all his strength, he would immediately be able to catch the kid in front of him, like a flutter in the wind, and easily avoid all his attacks.
But the dark shadow also had a hunch...... The deeper you go into the mountains, the more obvious the premonition becomes.
- If you kill yourself, you will also be in danger!
"After all, what the hell is this kid Ian doing? I just wanted to ask some questions about the death of the Night Serpent - did he see anything that night when he chased after Lone Flame Peak! ”
The black shadow was angry in his heart, indeed, there was a high probability that he would kill his mouth after asking, but wasn't it still extinguished now?
Since he hasn't died up yet, why should this damn country knight resist himself?!
With such a vicious aura, the black shadow raised two fingers of his right hand, forming a straight metal blade.
Then, he slashed at Ian, who was speeding in front of him!
The blade was not long, only a little more than a meter, but when the black shadow swung the blade, a strong essentia reaction erupted, and a vacuum channel that spread straight forward suddenly opened in the air - through the electromagnetic ejection disguised as essentia burst, the metal blade turned into thunder, and slashed towards the young knight's back with a speed that outpaced the bullet!
Based on Darkshadow's estimate of Ian's speed, the boy only needed a slight dodge to dodge his attack.
But instead he would fall into a trap, and in his left hand he was clutching a chain that had just been condensed, and as long as Ian dodged a little and slowed down, he would definitely be entangled in the chain he tossed.
Something unexpected happened to the dark shadow.
Ian was hit by the knife.
Click!
The shards on the back of the alchemist's armor shattered again, shattering large pieces of metal, and the blades plunged straight into the boy's back, slicing through the white skin and flesh.
Ian's galloping pace slowed down for a moment, he looked pale, his strength was declining, and he could only quickly inject a bottle of alchemy into his veins, and then accelerated forward again as if he was fighting for his life!
"What ......"
The Shadow hadn't figured out what was going on, but Ian's injuries were unmistakable and he couldn't let them go.
He immediately prepared to speed up and chase after the victory.
But after a few seconds, the shadow's pace slowed down.
Until finally, stop.
Because, a mountain man with red hair and green eyes stood silently in his path chasing Ian.
"Please stop."
Holding a slender dueling knife in his hand, Theo stood in front of the black shadow that covered his face, and said with a smile: "Further on, there is a private house." ”
Under the mask, the black shadow's expression was cloudy, and he could see that the other party was the member of the Dragon Worship Sect who had been in contact with Ian before, but he didn't know why the other party, a first-level level, dared to stop him.
Unless...... This is already the stronghold of the Bailong Sect in the depths of the Baisan Mountains!
While they were chasing and fleeing, they had actually run to such a deep place?!
