Chapter 49 The promotion ceremony joins forces to stop the enemy
In a forest of ghost claws in the northern part of the Flying Snake Swamp, Chuiji was grabbing a javelin and leaping rapidly on the branches of the trees.
She doesn't know the inner vision skill, so she can't track the target by sight alone, but her long time in the Punisher Legion is not in vain. Those in the legion are specially developed to use inner vision skills to track targets.
She has mastered the trace tracing technique to achieve the substitution effect to an expert level.
Although this tracking technique is far less intuitive and effective than the inner vision skill, it is enough if used in situations where the opponent does not realize that he is being tracked and therefore does not deliberately cover up his traces.
Cui Ji relied on this tracking technique to catch up from behind. Until now, the traces left on the tree trunk told her that she was not far away from her target.
"Sure enough, you are still too young! Even if you are a student of the Queen..."
She threw away a broken dead branch in her hand, raised her head and glanced ahead, with a cruel smile on her lips.
The fracture of this dead branch was very new, and it was expected that it would take no more than five minutes to break. According to her speed of movement, it would only take less than three minutes to intercept the escaping little sparrow.
Cui Ji stuck out his scarlet tongue, licked the right half of his lips that were not covered by the mask, then raised the javelin next to him and prepared to catch up quickly.
At this moment, an earth-shaking violent explosion suddenly came from the direction behind her.
Cui Ji was suddenly startled and quickly looked back, only to see a white-gold fire pillar rising into the sky from the Ghost Claw Forest not far away.
The explosive wind and heat wave set off by the fire pillar scorched the surrounding swamps, and the surrounding Ghost Claw Forest was drained of moisture by the hot wind and burned fiercely.
This sudden scene made Chui Ji's heart feel cold for a moment. She could easily determine from the distance that the location where the fire pillar appeared was where Lindsay and the "twin sister" were.
be cheated!
This is a trap!
Damn it! How on earth did they find out about our existence?!
Also, how did they decide to list Lindsay as the first target?
Is it just because of the level?
Cui Ji gritted his teeth, and a ferocious expression appeared on the right side of his face.
"Hold on, you bastard! You must not call me quit!"
She kicked off the branch with her feet, and her whole body rushed towards the direction she came from like an arrow. At the same time, she kept praying in her heart, hoping that her good-for-nothing companion could hold on until she arrived.
No matter what, it’s level 65 versus level 44!
The gap at level 1 shouldn’t be smoothed out so easily, right?!
Cui Ji comforted himself like this, but his feet speeded up a lot again.
However, she had just run less than a hundred meters away when an icy coldness suddenly hit her from the right side. This coldness contained a sense of fatal threat, and she had to retreat urgently to avoid it.
boom!!
A round of sharp ice moon easily cut off the ghost claw tree where Cui Ji was standing just now, and exploded into a large sparkling ice flower on the muddy surface of the swamp!
A nimble figure jumped out from the side and stood quietly on a ghost claw tree directly opposite Cui Ji.
"The road ahead is blocked, so I can't pass it for now~" Funya said to her with a smile.
"Hmph...hehe...hahahahaha!" Cui Ji looked at the girl who appeared in front of him and was stunned for a moment. Then he suddenly covered half of his deadwood mask on the left side of his face and laughed wildly.
"There is a road to heaven, but if you don't take it, if there is no door to hell, just throw yourself into it! Little girl, if you just want to keep running, I may not be able to do anything to you, but you are so brave that you dare to appear in front of me. That's terrible!"
You can’t blame me!”
"Yes, I appeared in front of you myself, and it's not just me... there are others too!"
Funya smiled sweetly, but the words that came out of her mouth made Chui Ji stunned.
"What?"
"Sister Eileen~ No need to hide, come out!"
Following the girl's clear voice, five other mercenaries appeared from behind the trunks of the surrounding Ghost Claw trees.
These mercenaries who suddenly appeared were the Xiange tribe training ground team that had shown kindness to the sisters after the first challenge.
Their leader Eileen once tried to invite the sisters to join her team, but Anne refused.
However, although the invitation was unsuccessful, the relationship between the sisters and Irene's team was not bad, so when Funia made the plan this time, she had already learned the location of Irene's team through Xue Hua in advance.
Then, with the time difference of being one step ahead, she successfully found the hiding spot of Erin's team, and used the sisters' trophies of 99 flying snakes in total to invite them to help her stop the enemy.
After Irene briefly listened to Funia's interception plan and the target's information, she agreed without any further hesitation.
Although the fact that the opponent is a level 70 javelin mercenary with 6 skills is indeed a bit frightening, their team is not a pushover.
What's more, the opponent doesn't have detection skills. Even if something goes wrong, it will be easy to escape by spreading out.
In addition, the sincerity of the 99 flying snake trophies is indeed very high. Even if they are distributed to everyone in the team, each person can get 0. In this way, plus their previous hunts, basically everyone can get 0.
Keep 50 pieces of loot.
There is still a full day tomorrow. As long as they collect the remaining half, their team will be able to advance to the third challenge together for the first time!
Moreover, Erin also has one of the most critical considerations, that is, the existence of Chui Ji and Lindsay will also pose a big threat to them. If one of them cannot be eliminated first, once they shift their target to their own team,
, then I’m afraid they will also have a hard time with it.
So it's better to take this opportunity to get rid of this threat first, just kill the guy with superior detection ability. Twiggy, who has weak detection ability, is basically a blind mouse in the vast Flying Snake Swamp.
It was due to the combination of these reasons that Irene quickly accepted Funia's invitation and brought all the team members together to help the little girl set up this ambush.
The previous "traces" found by Chui Ji were actually forged by a tracking master in Irene's team. Funia, Irene and the other six people had actually gone around behind Chui Ji, waiting for another person.
Annie on the other side fired first!
Because of her eagerness, Chui Ji turned her head and ran into the trap when she rushed forward. Her weakness in detecting ability was clearly evident at this moment.
"Damn you..." Cui Ji, who was trapped in the middle, held the javelin in his hand tightly, with an expression on his face full of vicious hatred.
The average level of Erin's team is around level 45, and Erin herself has reached level 48. Coupled with Funya, who cannot be judged by common sense, it will be difficult for such a lineup to defeat her, but
It's very easy to trap her for a moment or three.
Boom!!
Another pillar of fire shot up into the sky from the direction of Lindsay, and this time the explosion was closer to Triggie's current position.
Obviously, under the attack of Annie's super destructive skills, Lindsay could no longer hold on and began to run away in confusion.
This situation made Chui Ji suddenly become even more anxious.
Without Lindsay, she lost her eyes, which meant that she would not be able to complete the task assigned by Her Majesty the Queen in the second challenge.
Even since there is only one day left for the second challenge, it is still unknown whether she can pass the second challenge without her investigative ability!
Cui Ji became anxious, and a dark purple poisonous cloud suddenly appeared on her body.
The poisonous cloud completely covered her body, and the sound of snake scales scraping against the tree trunks could be heard.
