"Victor! How about—have you found the next footprint?"

Under the dark night sky, the stopped warlock Andrew and the black knight Rost were on the ground paying close attention to all the movements around them, while the druid who had transformed into a leopard shape was searching the trees for Xiao Lan's escape.

traces below.

At this time, they had no idea that Boris had been killed, or even that Ivan had been attacked by the Predator - the sound-absorbing effect of the tropical jungle was so good that the burst of deadly gunfire was already sparse when it reached three kilometers away.

It was like a gust of wind blowing through the woods without attracting anyone's attention.

And even though no one informed them, they still followed the original plan without knowing it.

But at this moment, they had a little trouble. The originally regular and continuous footprints suddenly became a little weird here - the footprints of the target who were running almost straight away actually spread in all directions!

This phenomenon is undoubtedly intended to mislead those who are following. Although only one direction will be true, if all possible directions are searched, it will delay enough time...

But it doesn't have to be that troublesome. In reality, Victor, who is a jungle expert, has gained a further sense of smell and insight after undergoing druid enhancement, and has a deeper understanding of the traces left by prey.

Under his careful inspection, it didn't take him long to discover the hidden traces that were difficult to detect - the freshest footprint, which was the real direction of escape!

The target did not continue to flee, but turned a corner and went to one side... Did you think they would be chased away, or did you want to lead them in a circle?

It's like a fox using its tail to sweep away the footprints left in the snow in an attempt to deceive the hunter, completely unaware that the traces swept by its tail can also be tracked.

Just like a detective solving a crime, no matter how meticulous the crime is, as long as it is really done, there will be clues left. The key lies in the difficulty of discovering the clues.

No matter what, now that the traces have been discovered, don’t even think about escaping!

"Found it, it's in this direction! The freshness of this footprint is very high - we are going to catch him!"

Of course this will be very fresh, because it was left just a short time ago... But, who caught whom?

After the druid greeted him and the warlock rushed over first, the black knight Rost who was standing behind him scanned the surroundings carefully and began to take steps. Xiao Lan, who was just above them, showed a hint of cruelty at the corner of his mouth.

smile.

Since you are following the traces, you will be deceived by the traces... As traces of dead objects, they can be forged very easily.

After selecting this encounter point, Xiao Lan, who arrived, deliberately left a string of misleading footprints in all directions. At the same time, abnormal and unnecessary movements would be discovered without leaving any observable signs - the method was very

Simple, wrap a layer of plastic cloth outside the large slippers, then there will be no odor or mark left, and the contact surface will be reduced due to the increase

The slight deformation caused by more than half of the pressure will not leave detectable traces on the hard bark. Even a thermal camera using infrared sensing cannot capture the abnormality... Of course, this is only limited to dry trees.

On the ground, if he steps on moss or soil, he will inevitably leave traces, unless he has the ability to leave no trace on the snow or the direct ability to fly.

After leaving the footprints that would be regarded as real footprints, Xiao Lan hid in the treetops above without leaving any trace——

The arriving druid relied too much on his tracking ability. Thinking that he had discovered the true hidden footprint, he unknowingly stepped into the sensory trap set by Xiao Lan, changed direction, and completely exposed his back to Yin.

The hunter in the shadow.

Then, it’s time to start...

With a silent smile, Xiao Lan fell from the treetops as lightly as a night owl gliding by in the dark night, remaining silent until he was about to touch Rost who was walking below.

And the next moment, a flash of light suddenly erupted from Xiao Lan's body that made people feel like a thunderbolt——

Vector acceleration: twice the gravity when landing!

Magic burst: 300% liberation!

Flame Explosion: Reverse Spray!

Xiao Lan firmly grasped the big sword on his back with a steady hand, and instantly communicated with the internal magic circuit, and at this moment, he exploded with the ultimate blow that he could exert.

The accumulated burst of magic power amplified the muscles of the arms holding the sword, and combined with the perfect liberation of the second level of restriction, it burst out 300% of the terrifying power. The twice gravity acceleration acting on himself directly increased the speed of his fall by two times.

times, the ignited sacrificial flames spurted out from the back of the blade, like a rocket recoil, further accelerating the slash that was already reaching its limit——

"Vertical Slash·Explosive Flame Slash!"

The high-speed slash that exceeded the sound wave several times tore through the air barrier in an instant, and the shock wave that burst out along with the sonic explosion blew away the surrounding dust and leaves without a trace. This extremely sharp and powerful sword could not be

In terms of a real hit, the wind pressure and vacuum wave alone are enough to tear everything in its path into pieces. If it is a real hit, the huge kinetic energy of more than one million joules is almost equivalent to a tank cannon.

The bombardment!

But this sword, which was like a god descending and cutting down the incomparable brilliance with all its strength and invincibility, was intercepted by a pitch-black sword before it cut the target in two.

There is no reflection on the pure black sword, and a trace of mist-like black aura is wrapped around the blade. The extremely weak light in the darkness seems to be swallowed up and collapses inward, so that the sword is also invisible in the dark night.

The black color is extremely dazzling...

Overall, it looks like a mass of materialized dark mist.

However, it was this black sword blade that looked like it could fall apart with just a flick of it, which firmly held up Xiao Lan's ultimate slashing attack that fell from the sky!

(This is a joke...)

Before Xiao Lan could express his surprise, a burst of explosive roar completely replaced all the sounds.

The moment the two swords clashed, the surrounding air was shattered in an instant.

The high-pressure heat transformed from the energy surge of millions of joules burst out a shock wave visible to the naked eye, sweeping everything around like thunder, as if a high-explosive grenade was detonated on the spot.

All torn and blown apart.

However, this violent air wave with astonishing destructive power did not affect Xiao Lan and Rost, whose swords were clashing with each other. The pair of eyes shining with blue soul fire behind the ferocious black helmets stared at Xiao Lan.

From those crystal pupils without focus, a message as cold as the cold wind in an abandoned tomb came from the Black Knight's mouth.

"Sneak attack? You actually came to me first... You really hope to return to the Kingdom of the Dead as soon as possible!"

At the same time, there was an inaudible sound, but Xiao Lan, who held the sword with both hands and connected the magic circuit, clearly felt the changes on the sword... At the position where the two swords touched each other, there was actually

There is a crack that is invisible to the naked eye, and this fatal gap is still expanding——

It's just one blow, this...is going to break?

To be honest, Xiao Lan's surprise at this moment was more profound than all the past events combined.

He who appears here is not here to kill people, because he cannot bear the penalty of negative points for killing people, otherwise he can use the most suitable sniper attack to kill them from a distance.

But it is too difficult to use snipers to achieve only injuries but not death...

Among the three, the warlock Andrew will not completely lose his combat effectiveness unless his head is shattered. The same goes for the black knight Rost. As an undead, unless the soul fire in the head is destroyed or the body is completely destroyed, he will remain almost intact.

In terms of combat power, Druid is considered the most vulnerable, but in the transformed state, the damage that will be reflected on the body is limited unless a headshot is fired.

And the most important point is that he caused the encounter to lure Reinhard over, but not for them to meet up - the reappearance of the deadly sniper will not let them continue to chase, but will make them flee in a hurry.

Once they get back together, it will be troublesome.

So Xiao Lan chose to use his big sword to perform a heavy slash with astonishing explosive power, and chose the black knight who was least likely to be killed directly as his target, so that he could calmly leave after completing the detailed attack and take them in circles.

It's just that his Explosive Flame Slash, which could be said to have been carried out with all his strength, was intercepted by the most impossible method in a sneak attack... He really didn't expect this.

In his calculations, this move should simply tear the Black Knight's armor to pieces and cut off half of his body along the way. Although it can't kill him, it will make him spend some time sorting out the broken bones, and then "

If you realize that you are disadvantaged in a one-to-many battle, you will turn around and run away and be chased all the way. At the same time, the aura of fighting will attract Reinhardt.

But in this situation... we are not pretending to "find" that the battle is disadvantageous, but if we stay for half a second, we will really be beaten to death by a group!

————————————————————————————

It's not that I'm abusing the master, it's just that the enemy is stronger than expected...

But don't worry, it won't become really cruel.
