255 Anti-Tracking
Although the bodies of the slave traders and others were already cold, they were still soft and elastic, indicating that Xi Xin should have been away for less than three hours.
About three hours after death, the initial mortis begins!
And from the time the Crystal Palace left to the present, Lupin has been chasing all the way, always lagging behind Xi Xin's time schedule by at least three days, but now he has found the traces she left within 3 hours, which can be said to be the closest he has ever been to Xi Xin!
"You can't run away." Lupin was engrossed in tracking all the way.
In order to speed things up, he even acted directly in the form of a [Hunter].
He had tried many times, and the hunter form, which had been infused with the genes of the bulging-bellied viper, was the only one of his many recombinant states that could never be detected by the Inhuman detector! Pure humans don't trigger alarms, but they are much less useful for tracking.
The hunter form is good at stealth, and the mimicry of the octopus and the cortical cells of the chameleon make him maintain his mimicry at all times when he moves against the wall, and it is impossible for others to see it from a little distance. There are meat pads on the soles of the feet, even if they run wildly, they are silent, and the visual and olfactory organs are a mixture of several felines and canines, and even the smell of snakes and infrared sensing organs on the tongue!
If the Beastmaster form is the battlefield overlord tank and is best at frontal combat, then the hunter form is more like an unmanned stealth reconnaissance aircraft.
Flexible, perceptive, good at stealth!
However, after a moment's tracking, Lupin frowned slightly.
Xi Xinshe ...... Obviously knowing that I might be stalking her, she's trying to get rid of me! ”
The reason is also very simple.
Where Xi Xin passed, there were crowded markets, pungent smelling mountains of e-waste, and difficult garbage alleys in rugged areas!
And there are very few footprints and other traces she left...... You must know that the sinkhole area of Neptune City is very dirty, with sewage flowing and muddy, and it is difficult to leave no traces, but she has left very few traces along the way, and is obviously using various methods to interfere with the tracker's hearing and hearing.
None of this is a problem for Lupin, who currently relies on smell to track the main thing.
And the hunter's sense of smell is so strong, wherever Xi Xin passes by in ten days, he can confidently distinguish the residual breath! What's more, it's only been a few hours now.
Lupin chased after him all the way, and even passed a bustling bazaar with an Inhuman detector installed! I don't know how she got involved...... However, Lupin ignored it directly, kept the mimicry the whole time, and passed quickly against the wall, not causing the alarm of the detector at all.
Ten minutes later, though, he had his first problem.
At the entrance to a sewer, the metal manhole cover clearly shows signs of being turned over.
"Got into the sewers?" Lupin frowned, and immediately lifted the manhole cover and drilled in.
After a few moments, Lupin endured the sour smell and stood on the edge of the underground sewage river...... This is the sinkhole area, with a huge difference in high and low terrain, and the raging water is surging from high to low.
"It's going to be difficult now......" Lupin rubbed his temples.
Xi Xin used the water body to cover up the smell, which could not stop his tracking, because the underwater smell of the form of the dolphin is no worse than the land smell of the hunter form! The fact that he was able to chase all the way from the Crystal Palace to Neptune City is enough to prove it...... However, what is in front of you is not an ordinary body of water.
It's a river of sewage that flows from top to bottom......
Almost without thinking, Lupin knew that Xi Xin should have fled downstream.
Because she swims upstream, her scent will continue to pass from upstream, and she can easily track it herself...... But if you go downstream, even if you jump into the water and load the Dolphin form, you can only touch the water flowing downstream, and the water has not touched Xi Xin's scent!
Lupin dived into the water and immediately verified this - there was clearly the smell of Sihin on the shore, but there was no in the water.
"No, it's not perfect." Lupin took a deep breath and said secretly in his heart, "Xi Xin has the genes of the Mexican newt and the passertail mantis shrimp in his body, and I tried this recombinant state...... Neither of these genes can make people breathe completely underwater on their own, at most prolonging breath-holding time! So she must still show her head and breathe from time to time.
"As long as she dares to show her head and breathe, the smell will inevitably disperse, and I just follow the direction of the sewage river, all the way to find her scent in the air."
Lupin quickly figured out how to crack it, but he also knew that this method was not easy.
This sewer is obviously accessible in all directions, and the sewage river is also likely to fork...... And if there is a fork in the road, you have to look for each one!
And if Xi Xin's ability to hold her breath is strong enough, maybe she will only need to change her breath once in ten minutes, and at the speed of the sewage river, Lupin feels that she can float a few kilometers away in ten minutes...... This means that if Lupin wants to make sure that he excludes any wrong fork in the road, he has to chase at least a few kilometers!
Not to mention that the sewers were so dark that you could barely see your fingers.
There are also various kinds of household garbage on the ground next to the sewage river. The smell of various fermentations is mixed together, making it more difficult to distinguish specific odors.
In such harsh conditions, even if you find a dozen well-trained police dogs to search together, I am afraid you will have to give up.
Lu Ping couldn't help but glance at Xi Xingao in his heart, he thought that she was just an ordinary transcendent, and she only escaped control by relying on her special genes, but now that he chased, the more he felt that he was facing a very smart and thoughtful opponent!
"Then let's see who is better."
Lupin did not delay any longer, his eyes glowing like that of a night hunter, and he ran downstream.
————
Two hours later.
On a dirty street at the bottom of the sinkhole district, a metal manhole cover was suddenly lifted up a crack.
Lupin looked left and right, and when he saw that no one was looking, he quickly jumped out of one of them!
"The hard work paid off, and I finally got it." Lupin was still a little proud, after all, it was not easy for him to accurately find Xi Xin's scent in the labyrinth of sewers! It is impossible to do this with any one person.
But just as he put the manhole cover back in its place, Lupin's face suddenly froze.
On the ground next to the wellhead, there was a shining silver thing, which looked like a high-tech mechanical prosthetic, but it was relatively small.
Lupin didn't move it, but carefully observed the shape and relative position of its joints, and soon realized that this thing was probably gently pinched on the edge of the manhole cover with an action similar to an orchid's finger before it came out on its own! And it is also covered with some household garbage to cover up.
The pinching force of only two mechanical fingers has very little resistance, which is much smaller than the weight of the manhole cover itself...... So when I came out, I lifted the manhole cover hard, and I didn't feel its existence at all...... At this time, it was obviously forced to open the mechanical joints because of its own action of opening the manhole cover, and it lost its balance and fell to the side.
I smelled Xi Xin's smell on the mechanical prosthetic leg and the few pieces of garbage used to cover it, obviously she placed them!
"A detection trap?" Lupin's face was ugly, and he reluctantly looked up.
At the same time, far away from two streets, Xi Xin was wearing a brainwave controller with a "telekinetic prosthetic" on his head, and his face was equally ugly.
"Crystal Palace, how many powerful transcendents have been sent to chase me, and I can't get rid of the people who are chasing me if I run away so cautiously?" She muttered to herself, a hint of gnashing of teeth on her face, "It seems that only like that, there is a glimmer of hope for survival......
