Above The Sky

A knight's most important armor and 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 them all the way, they already understood that there is a huge gap between their own strength and Ian. At least in various swordsmanship and marksmanship, Ian has done the best he can do at his age, and even they are fighting. Even a ten-year veteran can't beat it.

But now I found out that even Ian couldn't fight against the mysterious raider Sombra, and even fell into a disadvantage, even the armor was knocked off and the sword was smashed!

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

——If you really meet each other, don’t they all lay down the straw, waiting for the fate of being cut down?

But there are also some who strongly demand that the investigation be continued. Live to see people, die to see corpses, the reinforcements of Nauman City are already applying, they will catch up soon, they don't have to be afraid.

In particular, the several teams who received Mr. Yinfang's secret order persisted in their pursuit and never stopped. They were the strength of the Chamber of Commerce and naturally completed the task of their immediate superiors faithfully.

However, even the team of the Yinfang Chamber of Commerce eventually lost all clues from both sides at a big river that was rushing through.

On the banks of the Elbo River, which separates the Baisen Mountains from the Onyx Plain, only white waves can be seen washing the river bank, and in the distance is a rift valley. All the team members present were fluttering their shirts and their armors trembled.

The 300-meter-high drop was so terrifying, the moonlight shone on the water mist splashing from the waterfall, like a foggy door, blocking all the trackers.

——Ian and the attacker chased here all the way, jumped off the waterfall, and entered the depths of the Baisen Mountains.

Whether it is the pursuit or the pursued party, the clues have now been completely lost.

They can only turn back.

However, on the way back, a sharp-eyed adventurer saw that in the distance, on the mountains lit by the moonlight, a large number of birds were frightened.

The battle continues.

In the mountains in the distance, the white air in the forest, the bright silver light penetrates the haze, and the clouds stretch out in the sky, obscuring the moonlight and the mountains, making the night cover a corner of the Baisen Mountains.

Two black shadows shuttled rapidly through the forest, the sleeping birds and beasts were suddenly awakened, and the noise in the forest was panicked, and the flying shadows flew straight into the sky.

At this moment, the situation was reversed, Ian became the fleeing party, and the dark shadow, who showed some strength, chased back.

However, the mood of the two sides is very different.

"Throwing down the broken armor and blade fragments from the previous battle with Baron Ryan should be able to disguise my state a little bit worse, and there is no need to explain why the armor is broken."

Although the fairy wings have been turned on to escape, Ian is still thinking about how to rationalize some unreasonable problems in himself through the hands of this unknown pursuer.

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

On the surface, the opponent is a sublime of some kind of earth-metal specialization. He is good at using a sturdy body to block his own attacks. Only when he is close, he will try to suppress himself with tempered fighting and sword skills.

But in reality, that's not the case at all.

Ian has seen the truth about the other party's abilities.

- It's electricity!

This mysterious sublimator uses electromagnetically controlled metal to cover the surface of his body, forming an extremely strong steel body - and the high-speed movement of the other party is not really the tall body of the earth-based sublimator. Quality, but with electromagnetically controlled suspension traction!

"When I go to Nauman City next time, I will inquire about it. There are a few good people in Nanling who are good at manipulating thunder and lightning."

Ian wasn't going to expose the power of his second level here.

Indeed, after he had the confidence to explode with all his strength, it was like beheading the deputy section chief of the Lingzhi Academy, taking advantage of the opponent's unpreparedness, and instantly injuring and killing the opponent. With the power of the ether crystal booster, 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 identity of the other party was probably unusual, and his strength was definitely not comparable to that of the deputy section chief.

Whether it's exposing the ether crystal or killing him, there will definitely be big trouble.

It's like, if you kill Bishop Baiwu in the underground labyrinth, you will have the sense of crisis that Archbishop Tianyan came to wash the ground.

Besides, there is another reason.

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

It was all about 'losing'!

the other side.

Dark Shadow was extremely anxious.

He was tracking Ian while he was out on a mission, and now that he was out for a long time, it would make him suspicious.

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

He absolutely couldn't keep dragging Ian on like this.

But here's where the anxiety comes in.

He can't catch up to Ian!

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

"The goblins are fast and dexterous. I know that, but haven't all human goblin bloodlines abandoned this aspect of dexterity, and turned themselves into a specialized bloodline similar to artillery armor?"

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

"Young people are slender, similar to goblins, so take advantage of them?"

Hei Ying is very depressed. His true strength is at the second energy level. If he bursts out with all his strength, the speed is as fast as thunder.

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

But Sombra also had a premonition... The further he went into the mountain, the more obvious the premonition became.

——If you kill yourself, you will also be in crisis!

"After all, what is this kid Ian doing? I just wanted to ask some questions about the death of Night Snake - did he see anything when he chased Lone Flame Peak that night!"

Hei Ying became angry in his heart. Indeed, he would probably be silenced after the question, but isn't he still alive now?

Since he hasn't been silenced, why should this damn country knight resist himself? !

With such malice, Sombra raised two fingers of his right hand, forming a straight metal blade.

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

The blade is not long, only a little over a meter, but when the black shadow waved the blade, a strong essentia reaction erupted, and a vacuum channel that spread straight forward was suddenly torn open in the air - through the disguised essentia that erupted. Electromagnetic ejection, the metal blade turned into a thunderbolt, and slashed towards the back of the young knight with a speed that surpassed that of bullets!

Based on Sombra's estimate of Ian's speed, the boy only needed a little dodge to evade his attack.

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 slows down, he will definitely be entangled by the chain he throws.

But something unimaginable happened.

Ian was hit by the knife.

Click!

The armor on the back of the alchemist's armor shattered again, breaking down large pieces of metal, and the blade inserted straight into the boy's back, cutting through the white skin and flesh.

Ian's galloping pace immediately 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 he accelerated forward again as if he was fighting for his life!

"what……"

Sombra 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 shadow's pace gradually slowed down.

Until the end, stop.

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

"Please stop."

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

Under the mask, Hei Ying's expression was uncertain. He saw that the other party was the member of the Dragon Cult who had been in contact with Ian before, but he did not know why the other party, a first-level energy level, dared to stop him.

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

When they were chasing and fleeing, they had already run to such a deep place? !
