Chapter 412 This is my escape route! (twenty three)

A knight's most important armor and blade were broken, so one can imagine his own situation.

Realizing that Ian might have been seriously injured, the momentum of the pursuit team dropped steadily.

After chasing all the way, they already 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. Veterans who have been fighting for more than ten years cannot claim victory.

But now it was discovered that even Ian couldn't fight against the mysterious shadow of the raider, and even fell into a disadvantage, even the armor was knocked off, and the saber was shattered!

Under such oppression, some people immediately wanted to return and wait for reinforcements, also to save their lives.

——If you really run into each other, aren’t they both scytheing the stalks, waiting to be cut down?

But there are also some who strongly demand to continue the investigation.If you want to see a person, if you want to see a dead body, the reinforcements from Nauman City are already applying, and they will catch up immediately, so they don't have to be afraid at all.

In particular, the few teams that were secretly ordered by Mr. Yinfang persisted in their pursuit and never stopped. They are the strength of the chamber of commerce, and they naturally faithfully completed the tasks of their immediate superiors.

However, even the team of the Yinfang Chamber of Commerce ended up at a big river rushing by, completely losing the clues of both parties.

On the banks of the Great Elbow River that separates the Baisen Mountains and the Agate Stone Plain, only white waves can be seen washing the river bank, and in the distance is a rift valley. All the team members present had their clothes fluttering and their armor trembling.

The 300-meter-high drop is so terrifying, the moonlight shines on the mist splashed by the waterfall, like a fog-shaped door, blocking all the 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 chasing and the chased party have now completely lost their clues.

They can only turn back.

However, on the way back, a sharp-eyed adventurer saw that in the distance, on the moonlit mountain, a large number of flying birds were startled.

The battle continues.

In the mountains in the distance, white air rises in the forest, bright silver light penetrates the mist, and the clouds in the sky curl up, covering the moonlight and the mountains, making the night cover the corner of the Baisen Mountains.

Two black shadows quickly shuttled through the forest, and the sleeping birds and animals were suddenly awakened. The forest was noisy and panicked, and flying shadows flew straight into the sky.

At this moment, the situation reversed, and Ian became the fleeing party, while the black shadow, which showed some strength, pursued in turn.

However, the moods of the two parties are completely different.

"Throwing down the broken armor and blade fragments from the previous battle with Baron Ryan, it should be able to camouflage my state a bit worse, and then I don't need to explain why the armor is broken."

Although he had activated Fairy Wings to escape, Ian still thought about how to use the hands of this unknown pursuer to rationalize some unreasonable problems in himself.

At this moment, after such a period of chasing and reversal, Ian has roughly figured out part of the opponent's details.

On the surface, the opponent is some kind of earth-metal specialization sublimator, who is good at using a solid body to block his attack, and only tries to suppress himself with his well-trained fighting skills and sword skills when he is close.

But in fact, it is not the case at all.

Ian has seen the truth of the opponent's ability.

- It's electricity!
This mysterious sublimator uses electromagnetically controlled metal to cover the surface of his body, forming an extremely solid body of steel—and the high-speed movement of the opponent is not really the high body of the earth-type sublimator Li Dazhuanfei quality, but the suspension traction with electromagnetic control!

"The next time I go to Nauman City, I will inquire about it. There are a few experts in Nanling who are good at controlling lightning."

Ian didn't intend to reveal the power of his second energy level here.

Indeed, he is confident that after bursting out with all his strength, he is like beheading the deputy section chief of the Institute of Intellectual Intelligence, taking advantage of the opponent's unpreparedness, and instantly injuring and killing the opponent—with the power of ether crystal growth, his explosive power can already be compared to the second A powerhouse who specializes in this way in the energy level.

But a sense of crisis told him that the other party's identity might be unusual, and his strength was definitely not comparable to that of the deputy section chief.

Whether it is to expose the ether crystal or kill him, there will definitely be big trouble.

It's like, if Bishop Baiwu is killed in the underground labyrinth, there will be a sense of crisis that Bishop Tianyan came to wash the ground.

Besides, there is another reason.

——He deliberately exposed his flaws this time, and ran all the way to the deep mountains and old forests...

It was originally for 'losing'!

the other side.

Sombra was extremely anxious.

He followed Ian while he was away from the mission, but now he had been out for a long time, and any longer would make others suspicious.

Not to mention, his pursuit with Ian will definitely attract the attention of the noble forces in Nauman City. At that time, his apparent identity may have to be dispatched-and if he is not present at that time, things will be fun up.

He absolutely cannot continue to delay with Ian like this.

But here is where it gets worrisome.

He can't keep up with Ian!

"Damn it, I've already used the power at the peak of the first energy level, why can't I catch up with this kid?"

"The elves are fast and dexterous, I know that, but haven't the human elves' bloodlines all abandoned the aspect of dexterity, and turned themselves into a special bloodline with output similar to the armor of a turret?"

"Why is this guy so agile, and the fairy wings are the same as the real fairy?"

"The young man has a slender body, similar to a goblin, so he just takes advantage of it?"

Soi Ying was very depressed. His real strength was at the second level. If he exploded with all his strength, his speed would be as fast as thunder. He could be called the fastest down Nanling at the third level. But at this moment, in order to avoid revealing his flaws, he did not dare to use his full strength rashly.

He was confident that after using all his strength, he would immediately be able to catch the kid in front of him who was lightly avoiding all his attacks like fluff in the wind.

But the black shadow also has a premonition... The deeper the mountain, the more obvious the premonition.

——If he kills himself, he will also be in crisis!
"In the final analysis, what is this kid Ian doing? I just want to ask some questions about the death of Night Snake - did he see anything when he chased to the Lonely Flame Peak that night!"

Heiying became annoyed in his heart. Indeed, he would probably silence him after asking, but isn't he still silenced now?
Since the words have not been silenced, why does this damn country knight resist him? !

With such malice in mind, the black shadow raised two fingers of his right hand to form a straight metal blade.

Immediately afterwards, he slashed towards Ian who was speeding in front of him!

The blade is not long, only over one meter long, but when the black shadow swung the blade, a strong source matter reaction erupted, and a vacuum channel that spread straight forward was suddenly torn in the air—— Electromagnetic ejection, the metal blade turned into thunder, and slashed towards the back of the young knight with a speed faster than bullets!
Based on Sombra's estimate of Ian's speed, the boy only needs to dodge his own attack with a slight dodge.

But this will fall into a trap instead. He is holding a chain that has just been condensed in his left hand. As long as Ian dodges a little and his strength slows down, he will definitely be entangled by the chain he throws.

But something that Sombra never expected happened.

Ian was hit by the knife.

Click!

The armor plate on the back of the alchemist's armor shattered again, and a large piece of metal fragments fell off, while the blade inserted straight into the boy's back, cutting open the white skin and flesh.

Ian's galloping pace suddenly slowed down for a moment. He looked pale and his strength was weakened. He could only quickly inject a bottle of alchemy potion into his veins, and then he accelerated forward again as if desperately fighting for his life!
"what……"

Sombra still hasn't figured out what's going on, but Ian's injury is undeniable, and he can't let it go.

He immediately prepared to speed up and pursue the victory.

But after a few seconds, the pace of the black shadow gradually slowed down.

Until the end, stop.

Because, a mountain man with red hair and green eyes stood silently on the road where he was chasing Ian.

"Please stop."

Holding a slender dueling knife in his hand, Xiou stood in front of the shadow that covered his face, and said with a half-smile: "Going forward, it's a private residence."

Under the mask, Sombra'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's first energy level dared to stop him.

Unless... this is already the stronghold of the Dragon Cult in the depths of the Baisen Mountains!

They chased and fled, and they ran to such a deep place? !
