A knight's most important armor and sword blade are broken, and his own situation can be imagined.
When they realized that Ian might have been seriously injured, the momentum of the pursuit team dropped steadily.
After chasing all the way, they have understood that there is a huge gap between their own strength and Ian's. At least in various sword skills and marksmanship, Ian has done the best he can do at his age. Even they
Even a veteran who has been fighting for more than ten years cannot pretend to be superior.
But now it is discovered that even Ian is unable to fight against the mysterious black shadow of the raider, and is even at a disadvantage. Even the armor was knocked off and the sword was shattered!
Under such pressure, some people immediately wanted to return and wait for reinforcements, just to save their lives.
——If they really meet each other, wouldn't they both be cutting down the straw, waiting for the fate of being cut down?
But there are also some people who strongly demand to continue the investigation. They want to see the person alive and the body dead. Nauman City's reinforcements have already applied for it and will catch up soon. They don't have to be afraid at all.
In particular, several teams who received secret orders from Mr. Yinfang persisted in the pursuit and never stopped. They are the strength of the Chamber of Commerce and naturally complete the tasks of their immediate superiors faithfully.
However, even the Yinfang Chamber of Commerce team ended up at a rushing river and completely lost the clues from both sides.
On the banks of the Elbo River that separates the Baissen Mountains and the Agate Stone Plain, you can only see white waves washing against the river bank. Beyond that is a rift valley. The river water rushes down to form a waterfall. The waves are swept by the strong wind, which makes people feel uncomfortable.
All the team members present had their clothes flying and their armors shaking.
The drop of three hundred meters is so terrifying that the moonlight shines on the water mist splashed by the waterfall, like a door made of fog, blocking all pursuers.
——Ian and the attacker chased all the way here, jumped off this waterfall, and completely entered the depths of the Baisen Mountains.
Both the pursuing and the pursued party have now completely lost their clues.
They can only look back.
However, on the way back, some sharp-eyed adventurers saw large swathes of birds flying away in the distance on the moonlit mountains.
The battle continues.
In the distant mountains, white steam rises from the forest, bright silver light penetrates the mist, and the clouds curl up in the sky, covering up the moonlight and mountains, making night cover a corner of the Baisen Mountains.
Two black shadows shuttled rapidly through the forest, and the sleeping birds and animals were suddenly awakened. The forest was noisy and frightened, and flying shadows flew high into the sky.
At this moment, the situation reversed, and Ian became the fleeing party, while the shadow, which showed some strength, pursued him in turn.
However, the moods of both parties are completely different.
"Throwing down the shattered armor and blade fragments from the previous battle with Baron Ryan should be able to disguise my condition a little worse, and there will be no need to explain why the armor is broken later."
Although he had activated his fairy wings to escape, Ian was still able to think about how to rationalize some of his unreasonable problems through the hands of this unknown pursuer.
At this moment, after such a period of chasing and reversal, Ian has roughly understood some of the details of the other party.
On the surface, the opponent is a sublimate of some kind of earth-metal specialization. He is good at using a strong body to block his attacks. Only when he gets close will he use his refined fighting skills and sword skills to try to suppress himself.
But in fact, this is not the case at all.
Ian has seen the truth about the other party's ability.
——It’s electricity!
This mysterious sublimator uses electromagnetic control of metal to cover the surface of his body, forming an extremely strong body of steel - and the opponent's high-speed movement is not really as high as the body of an earth-based sublimator.
quality, but uses electromagnetic controlled suspension traction!
"When I go to Nauman City next time, I'll go and ask around. There are some experts in controlling lightning in Nanling."
Ian had no intention of exposing his second-level power here.
Indeed, when he has the confidence to explode with all his strength, he can take advantage of the opponent's unpreparedness and instantly severely injure and kill him, just like he killed the deputy section chief of the Academy of Spiritual Knowledge. With the increased output of ether crystals, his explosive power can already be compared to the second best.
A strong person in the energy level who specializes in this way.
But a sense of crisis told him that the identity of the other party was probably unusual, and his strength was definitely not comparable to that of the deputy section chief.
Whether he exposes the ether crystal or kills him, there will definitely be big trouble.
Just like, if you kill Bishop Baiwu in the underground labyrinth, there will be a sense of crisis like Archbishop Tianyan coming to wash the ground.
In addition, 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 all about ‘losing’!
the other side.
Heiying was extremely anxious.
He took advantage of his spare time on the mission to track down Ian, but now he was out for a long time, and any longer would make him suspicious.
Not to mention, his chase with Ian will definitely attract the attention of the noble forces in Nauman City. When the time comes, his apparent identity may have to be dispatched - and if he was not present at that time, things would be fun.
Already.
He absolutely cannot continue to delay things with Ian like this.
However, this is where the anxiety lies.
He can't catch up with Ian!
"Damn it, I've obviously used the power at the peak of the first level, why can't I catch up with this kid?"
"Elves are fast and dexterous, I know that, but haven't all human elf bloodlines abandoned this aspect of dexterity, and instead turned themselves into a specialized output bloodline similar to turret armor?"
"Why is this guy so agile? The fairy wings he uses are the same as those of a real fairy?"
"The young man has a slender body, similar to that of a goblin, so he takes advantage of him?"
Black Shadow is very depressed. His true strength has the second level. If he explodes with all his strength, his speed is as fast as thunder. He is the fastest in the third level of Nanling. But at this moment, in order to avoid exposing his flaws, he does not dare to use all his strength rashly.
He was confident that after using all his strength, he would be able to immediately catch the boy in front of him, who was like a piece of catkins floating in the wind, avoiding all his attacks.
But the black shadow also has a premonition...the deeper it goes into the mountain, the more obvious the premonition becomes.
——If you kill yourself, you will also be in crisis!
"After all, what is this boy Ian doing? I just want to ask some questions about the death of Night Snake - whether he saw anything when he chased to Lone Flame Peak that night!"
Heiying became angry in his heart. Indeed, he would most likely shut up after asking, but isn't he still alive now?
Since he hasn't silenced him yet, why does this damn country knight have the right to resist him?!
With such malice, the black shadow raised two fingers of his right hand and shaped a straight metal blade.
Immediately afterwards, he slashed towards Ian who was flying rapidly in front of him!
The blade was not long, only a little over a meter long, but when the black shadow waved the blade, a strong source of energy reaction burst out, and a vacuum channel spread straight forward in the air - through the explosion disguised as the source of matter
Electromagnetic ejection, the metal blade turned into thunder, and struck the young knight's back with a speed faster than a bullet!
Based on Black Shadow's estimate of Ian's speed, the boy only needed a slight dodge to dodge his attack.
But this will instead lead to him falling into a trap. He is holding a chain that has just been condensed in his left hand. As long as Ian dodges a little and slows down, he will definitely be entangled in the chain he throws.
But something happened that Black Shadow could never have imagined.
Ian was hit by this knife.
Click!
The armor plate on the back of the alchemist's armor shattered again, breaking off large pieces of metal, and the blade penetrated straight into the young man's back, cutting open the fair skin and flesh.
Ian's galloping pace suddenly slowed down for a moment. He looked pale and his strength was declining. He could only quickly inject a bottle of alchemy potion into his veins, and then, as if fighting for his life, he accelerated forward again!
"What……"
Black Shadow hasn't figured out what happened yet, but there is no doubt that Ian is injured and cannot let it go.
He immediately prepared to speed up and pursue the victory.
But after a few seconds, the shadow's pace gradually slowed down.
Until the end, stop.
Because, a mountain man with red hair and green eyes stood quietly on the road where he was chasing Ian.
"Please stop."
Xiou held a slender dueling knife in his hand, stood in front of the black shadow that obscured his face, and said with a faint smile: "Further forward, there is a private residence."
Under the mask, the shadow's expression was uncertain. He could see that the other party was the member of the Dragon Worship Cult who had been in contact with Ian before, but he didn't know why the other party, a first-level person, dared to stop him.
Unless... this is already the stronghold of the Dragon Worship Cult deep in the Baisen Mountains!
While they were chasing and escaping, they had actually reached such a deep place?!
