Chapter 1157: Pursuit
,!
Although it is said that the plan cannot keep up with the changes, when the initial consideration of the plan is not perfect, then the results of the plan implementation are not so gratifying. This point is perfectly reflected in the performance of the Marquis of Farshid after deciding to pass the territory of the Green Dragon.
That dragon is negotiable!
But it's the same for both the tracked and the tracker. It doesn't mean that Bi Qinglong only negotiates with one of them, and then brain-dead with the other party to the end.
And the worst thing about it was that the dragon didn't show up at all......
The creature that threatens the most, and is also seen as a boost by both the tracking and the tracked, makes this chase game a little less varied.
Since there are fewer changes, the factors that affect both sides return to their respective fundamentals. The advantage of the three of the Marquis and his party is very strong, and the idle demonic beasts are not their opponents in one round. Even if the weapon in your hand is just an ordinary long sword, as long as you pierce into the vital point from a weak point, an ordinary long sword can be deadly, isn't it?
The territory of the Biqing Dragon, as long as there is a demonic beast with a little brain, or if it is strong enough to a certain extent, if it does not run by itself, it will become the food of the Biqing Dragon. In addition, the living creatures that grow on the ground as food are not all herbivores, but some carnivores or saprophagous animals exist, forming a basic ecosystem.
Given that even ordinary herbivores are abnormal for ordinary people, let alone those few carnivores. There is no threat in the eyes of Biqing Long, which does not mean that it is also the same in the eyes of ordinary people. Even though the three Marquis were far superior to the strength of ordinary people, these creatures still bothered them to a certain extent.
The biggest disadvantage that affects the speed of the three marquis is that they are not veterans living in the mountains and forests. In particular, it is a forest where danger is everywhere and the terrain is unfamiliar.
On several occasions, in order to cross the moat in the forest, the three marquis had to take a detour, or even turn back, and go in other directions, so that they could pass through those special places that could not be crossed by manpower.
However, the closest group of people who chased after the three marquis were led by mountain veterans like the old hunter. In addition, in the territory of the Emerald Dragon, those ordinary carnivorous animals would not pose much of a threat to this team of elite warriors, so the advance speed of the trackers could still be said to be at the level of the previous few days.
The speed of one remained the same, and the other slowed down, and the result was that the marquis and the other three were finally caught up. The chase turned into a pursuit, and everyone started a long-distance race of endurance and fighting.
The three marquis abandoned all their daily necessities, only brought weapons and equipment, and roamed and engaged their pursuers. As long as they can run, they will never stop. Although the strength of the three of them was superior, the disadvantage in numbers, and the need to choose the direction of escape without allowing themselves to easily fall into the trap set by the pursuers all involved their limited energy, and they fought a five-to-five wave of results.
On the pursuing side, although the hired squad lacked individual strength, they cooperated well, and the opponent was bent on escaping, but they also achieved good results. In particular, their Overseer reported that they had bitten their target, and recruited other tracking teams to join them in rounding up. So now they just need to stall for time and contain each other. There is no need to fight for the risk of injury, and go up to face people.
However, if you do this, the bounty will have to be divided equally. But making things big and letting their own part of the bounty fall into their pockets safely, it was the initial calculation of this group of people. Although it is a lack of money to take this kind of private work, they also see a lot of mercenaries who have money and no life to spend, and no one wants to be the kind of unlucky ghost whose wife and children have to be handed over to others to raise.
And the one who is the overseer does not dare not reciprocate. If it was investigated afterwards, why didn't he report the news at the first time he found the target, and guided the other teams to come and surround it, it would be another account.
If someone is caught, the credit alone will swallow up words; If you don't catch it and let the target run away, your fate will definitely not be better than dying on the spot. So he can only hope that he will catch people before the support arrives and maximize the credit.
So even if the team overseer is very anxious, urging the people who are tracking the team to move forward. It's best to have a lose-lose relationship with the target, not only let him take the credit alone, but the people who share the profit and pay at the bottom are better to die by the way, then everyone will be happy.
But, no one is stupid. The overseer's greed is almost written on his face, and how can the tracking team hired by him not know to keep a hand, so as not to make himself unclear.
Just looking at their archery, not only is it extremely economical, as if every arrow is made of gold, and if you shoot ten, you can't hit half of it, this is a professional mercenary, you dare to believe it! If you really go to the battlefield, whether it is killing the enemy, or crusading against thieves and monsters, this level of combat power will be killed in minutes.
But it was such a one-and-no soy sauce technique, which dragged down the speed of Marquis Farshid and others. Even if the marquis and the other three want to fight hard, it is okay if they don't fight with themselves.
And chasing in the forest, unlike on the streets of town, has too many uncontrollable terrain factors. The layout of the town has its own rules, and under normal circumstances, there will not be a sinkhole on either side, or a cliff after climbing over a wall. But all this is possible in the forest.
Therefore, when the marquis and the others escaped, they had to pay attention to their own foothold. In contrast, the tracking team has more experience in this area, and the speed of running and chasing is faster.
The group chased and fought, and under some kind of tacit understanding, a strange balance was formed, and no one was even injured. If it weren't for the fact that everyone knew each other's identities, and was in the most dangerous place in the Gwana Empire, they would have thought that this was a training between colleagues.
However, as time went on, the Risa family's trackers began to show up to help, and the situation began to tilt against the Marquis of Farshid. When there are enough people in pursuit and those involved in the pursuit judge that they can capture the target without damage, the people present do not intend to let the number of bounty players continue to increase.
A tacit understanding that did not need to be explained, just when the people on the marquis's side splashed blood for the first time, the pursuers began to move seriously.
And the marquis, who only had a long sword and was dressed in leather armor, could still maintain an undefeated opponent after running wild for a whole day, and such resilience also made the pursuers look at it differently. Some people know the identity of their target, some don't, but none of this prevents them from understanding one thing, and that is that the three in front of them are definitely the best fighters.
Unfortunately, only one person will survive, and the other two are destined to die in this forest.
When a siege was formed in an open field without shelter, and the three marquis could no longer advance half a step, the end seemed to be decided. But an arrow suddenly froze in mid-air, and at the same time there was a sharp and loud voice like tearing cloth: "Oops." I don't feel pain, but it seems a bit bad to be found out like this. ”
