Xue Hua looked at the return scroll at his feet, and a layer of dense cold sweat broke out on his forehead. Just now, Abathur used his main hive mind to simply check all the return scrolls in his hand, and discovered the destination of these scrolls.
It has all been changed and turned into a constantly moving anchor point.
He could almost guess where the anchor point was.
The killer is right next to the assassin who is coming to kill him!
Moreover, Abathur also told him that the permissions for these scrolls have also been modified. Once he uses the scrolls, the moment the blue portal appears, the assassin will probably appear in front of him instantly!
Return Scrolls are man-made items that are usually derived from relics left behind by the Horadrim. During the Infernal Invasion, this convenient item was used by Hell Demons to raid human gatherings.
Later, in order to prevent the demons from using the return scroll, the Horadrim mages handed over the management authority of the return scroll to the Professional Sacred Covenant.
After that, demons can no longer use the Return Scroll.
But professionals can still use it, including those with evil bonds.
Moreover, those with the evil contract can request the evil contract to interfere with the operation of the holy contract at a huge cost (such as their own lifespan or part of their souls). This interference includes changing the destination and passage permissions of the return scroll.
This time is not long, about five days, and it can only interfere with a certain person, but the price required to do this is really beyond the reach of ordinary people. It can be seen how much Jericho paid in order to successfully complete the task.
of effort.
"The return scroll is useless, and I'm afraid I can't go to the small station either. I bet that guy is definitely waiting for me to go to the small station!" Xue Hua gritted his teeth, with a fierce look in his eyes, and his left hand
Unconsciously, he inserted it into the hairline and slowly covered his forehead.
"Then let's go deeper! If you can't use the small station here in the Cold Plains, just go to the small station in the Stone Wilderness! I don't believe it, can that guy still block me there?" His voice was low and hoarse.
, since receiving the allegiance of the insect swarm, this is the first time that he has been forced into such an embarrassing situation by an enemy he has not yet seen.
But he believed in Isa's judgment. Since the adjutant said it couldn't be fought, it definitely couldn't be fought!
Since you can't fight, you can only run. You can't go to the border post, let alone the small station camp. You can't even use the return scroll. All the roads back to Rogge Camp are blocked by the opponent.
Then I simply won’t go back!
Keep going deeper! If the stone wilderness doesn't work, go to the dark forest. If the dark forest doesn't work, go to the black wasteland. If you can't get rid of him in the black wasteland.
Then let’s go to the cathedral and play around!
It depends on whether you are patient enough or whether my insect swarm develops quickly!
If you make me anxious, I will use all my troops to collect enough resources to give you a Leviathan secondary gun. Let me see if you die!
Xue Hua got angry and decided to have a good fight with Jericho. Taking advantage of the king insect's detection advantage, he believed that this guy wouldn't be able to grasp his whereabouts so quickly!
...
At the junction of the Cold Plains and the Bloody Wasteland, the siege battle of the Hell Army is still in full swing. Although the tactics of internal and external cooperation have been defeated, the number of the Hell Army is there, so it is still the side with the advantage.
On the edge of the hell army, a guy leading a blood-red strange horse with a single horn on its head quietly walked past the groups of fallen demons. No monsters attacked him, just like
This person does not exist.
This man was wearing a gray tattered cloak, and his face was completely covered by the hood. From his feet, wisps of black air were lingering around his body and slowly steaming.
His steps looked slow and his body was a bit stooped, like an old man.
But if you pay careful attention, you will find that his speed is actually very fast, because he almost crossed the entire battlefield in just a few minutes.
Walking to the edge of the battlefield, the man in gray robe took out something similar to a pocket watch. There was only one pointer on the dial of the pocket watch, and there were a few black hairs wrapped around the pointer.
At this moment, the pointer wrapped around the hair was moving slowly, but soon stopped, and the pointer pointed in one direction, which was the forest where Xue Hua and the insects were hiding.
"Hey...cough...my little mouse, I finally found you...obediently stretch your neck over and let me cut it off in the most affectionate way! Tracey! Let's go to find our dear
Little mouse, he will bring us freedom!"
The man in gray robe patted the back of the strange horse beside him. The horse actually roared, and then obediently lowered its front hooves, making it easier for the man in gray robe to climb onto its back.
The one-horned monster horse and the man in gray robe quickly arrived at the bush, but the place was already deserted.
"...Why are you running away from me? I'm here to bring you peace! My dear little mouse! This world is so dark, are you sure you haven't had enough of the sins of living?" The man in gray robe appeared.
Somewhat unhappy, he muttered to himself, got off his horse, came to the grass between the woods, and leaned down to observe the traces on the grass.
Suddenly, the strange horse beside him roared uneasily, raised its two front hooves and kicked wildly in the air.
"What's wrong with you? Tracy? Good boy, tell me what happened..." The man in gray robe stood up, clapped his hands and looked back at his mount. In his impression, Tracy has always been very well-behaved.
Yes, I will never lose my temper for no reason.
However, at the next moment, the pupils in the gray-robed man's hood suddenly tightened!
Four strange green monsters with vesicles on their backs suddenly appeared from four directions on the edge of the grass, then curled up into a ball and slammed into them.
"Shadow Master! Mind Blast!" The gray-robed man reacted very quickly. He instantly summoned Shadow Master and cast a mind blast at one of the monsters that crashed towards him.
The special effects of the mind blast did not affect the poisonous banelings, but the skills of the level 63 assassin were not so easy to block, let alone his skills that had been modified!
The poisonous baneling bug suddenly whined and exploded on the spot, spreading acid rain all over the sky.
The other poisonous baneling was attacked by the Shadow Master's mind blast, but it also failed to resist and was blown up halfway.
The hood of the man in gray robe was blown open by the wind caused by the explosion, revealing a pale and sinister face of a middle-aged man. He was Jericho, the assassin sent by "the adults" to assassinate Xue Hua.
He had no interest in this task at all. How could a sixth-level kid let himself take action?
It's just too much fuss.
But the reward promised to him by the "adult" was something he couldn't refuse at all!
free!
Ever since he restored the skill tree he had lost in order to get help from the Evil Contract, the word freedom had nothing to do with him.
The "sir" performed a series of evil spells on him, including replacing his original organs with some of the organs of the devil's true body, and using hell bait potions to completely transform some of his limbs into demonic limbs.
These transformations were very effective. Although he failed to regain the trap skill tree, he did regain a brand new skill tree called "Shadow of Hell".
Although this skill tree is not perfect yet, and the future is worrying, there are only four skills so far.
But he was already very satisfied.
After all, his family knows his own affairs, and his potential level is level 63.
To be able to get such a gain after using up his potential and losing a series of skill trees, he felt that his choice was not wrong.
However, "Adult"'s transformation of him was not free. When he replaced his organs, he specifically chose dark demon organs that were extremely difficult to control. This demonic organ can strengthen all his other skills, but it brings
The negative effect is that if it is not controlled by a special drug, this demonic organ will not care about the life and death of its owner at all, and will completely do its own thing, as if there is a living creature living in his body.
"My lord" has that special medicine, but he requires Jericho to serve him for at least three hundred years before giving it to him.
Jericho was so tortured by the Dark Demon's organs that he finally had no choice but to agree to the "adult's" request.
Until now, Jericho has served "your lord" for two hundred and thirty years, and he still has seventy years of "sentence" left.
However, this time, the "adult" actually promised him that if he could complete the task, he would be given "freedom" in advance!
What a temptation is this?
He simply couldn't refuse!
Therefore, although he knew that the target's level was less than level ten, in order to complete the task, he still spent a huge price to ask for the help of the evil contract and blocked the target's return scroll.
And he paid a full fifty years of life in exchange for five days of blockade.
Although he believed that it would only take half a day to kill such a weak mission target, he very cautiously extended the blockade time to five days.
It was his caution that gave him the opportunity to continue chasing Xue Hua, and also brought great trouble to Xue Hua who was running for his life.
However, the first person to feel trouble now is Jericho himself.
He looked at the large bloody corrosive wound on the right hind leg of his hell wildebeest "Tracy" with a gloomy expression. It was caused by one of the poisonous banelings that escaped the net. He did not expect these things.
The target would be his own horse, and he didn't expect that little necromancer to have such means.
"I have changed my mind, little mouse. When I catch you, I will tie you to a stake, cut off your flesh piece by piece, and eat it raw with sauce in front of you!"
