Chapter 81: Chase and Escape

"Woo woo woo", the bitter cold wind blows over the ice field, but it can't roll up the snowflakes on the ground. Under the low temperature, large snowflakes have frozen into clumps as soon as they hit the ground, firmly attached to the ground, and indestructible. In the heart of the ice field, a man wrapped in a black robe scurryed quickly across the terrifying ice field. The black robe was wide and loose, and it was blown by the cold wind and stuck to the body inside, and you could see that there was almost only a skeleton body left under the black robe, and this body also made the person in the black robe flutter lightly, running on the ice field was like flying out of thin air with the wind.

The black-robed man ran vigilantly, looking back at the distance behind him from time to time, obviously the enemy behind him brought him a lot of pressure. However, he had no doubt that he could get rid of the enemy, after all, he was also a creature who was not afraid of the cold, and on this barren ice field, he, a half-dead who was between the undead and the living, and could maintain his activity without eating at all, had a greater advantage than the sandman who was chasing behind him, between the elemental creatures and the living beings, who could not get rid of the need to feed on life. What's more, the speed of the two sides is close, they have a clear goal, they are simply moving fast, while the murderous assassin behind them is tracking, and it is tracking in such a harsh environment, it is inevitable that more body and more time will be wasted, in terms of consumption, it is impossible for the sandman to catch up with the half-dead who are purely fleeing. Therefore, although the black-robed man has always been vigilant, he has always maintained the confidence of identification, and it is impossible for him to be caught up by the sandman behind him.

As a matter of fact. The activity of the two chasing and fleeing has lasted for sixteen days, two weeks. The two borrowed various means of transportation and chased almost sleepless all the way from the southwest of the Farrar Empire to the permafrost ice field, and the journey of thousands of kilometers took only sixteen days, such a speed is rare in the history of the Yarra world. But even at such a fast speed, the black-robed man couldn't shake off the pursuers behind him, and during this period, the two inevitably had several battles, battles between old rivals. Although they all ended with the black-robed men fleeing with the upper hand, the Sandman Assassin Asker was unable to kill the enemy. It's a tie on another kind of Cheng dù. But since entering the ice field, the distance between the two has gradually widened, and if nothing else, it will be a few more days. The black-robed man can successfully get rid of Aske, who can't be shaken off like a shadow, and escape back to his lair, and then the Church of Death, where the ritual has been completed, can safely watch the creatures of the Yala world fall into the final despair in the lair, and there is no hope anymore.

Including the black-robed people, the three leaders of the Divine Servant organization are all gods with endless lifespans, and they have accumulated enough lessons from their failures over the past long years, and they all have plenty of experience in making plans, therefore. They had a very full plan for the ceremony, and they had long been mentally prepared for the destruction of some of the human pillars after being smashed by the powerhouses of all races in the Yala world. Moreover, each team that performs the task of shaping the human pillar will have at least one legendary ghoul in existence. The legendary ghouls in the Divine Servants are all awakened by the joint efforts of three Divine Half-Dead who are equivalent to the strength of the demigods, and each time the ghoul dies, the three Divine Servants will be sensed at the same time, so when there was a problem with the Frozen Human Pillar Ritual, the three half-dead who acted separately tacitly adjusted their plans at the same time. While this would have an effect on the effectiveness of the ritual, it would not be able to disrupt their plans in the first place.

The black-robed man was running. Although he was not afraid of death, no one wanted to choose death when he had the opportunity to live, so the black-robed man was still running, even though he was already feeling a little tired after sixteen days of continuous running, his speed still did not slow down. It's not that he hasn't considered flying to get rid of the trackers, but their strength has not reached that of the strongest Cheng Dù, and the speed of flying in the air is far less than running on the ground, and using the way of flying will only make the distance closer and closer, so he decisively gave up flying and ran on the ground according to the routine. As he ran, the black-robed man looked back again, and the cold wind blowing from behind lifted the black robe on his head, revealing the skeleton-like skin-covered skull underneath. The next moment, he seemed to sense something, no longer looked back frequently, obviously increased his speed, and fled forward frantically.

Penis and Asker are chasing, chasing through an icy, empty, misty ice field, and it's unimaginably difficult to track in this environment. A few days ago, when Freya disappeared after being swept away by an ice storm, Pannis was able to track all the way to where Freya landed, because he knew the direction of the ice storm's wind and knew the general path of Freya's flight. But now it's different, the current opponent is a half-dead with autonomous ability, not a constant wind, he will not run in one direction, but will cunningly constantly change direction and position, causing very big trouble to the tracker, even with Pennis's tracking ability, in the past thirty-four hours after meeting with Asker, it has been very difficult to track, and even a few times almost lost the target clue and missed the opportunity to catch up with the opponent.

Fortunately, there is also Asker, the demigod assassin Asker. If you want to become a good assassin, you must first become an excellent tracking master, and if you don't pass the tracking skills, you will never have a chance to sit in the position of Yara's number one assassin in the world. Because as an assassin, the assassination target will never stand there stupidly waiting for someone to kill, they will flee, they will hide, they will hide in any position they can think of or can't think of, if they can't track it, the mission will not succeed.

Therefore, the black-robed man's idea is a little wrong, he is now followed not by a tracking master, but by two, Asker's tracking method mainly comes from the inheritance of the assassin profession, and Pannis's tracking method mainly comes from the hunters of the elf clan in the jungle, the two tracking abilities have their own advantages and disadvantages, but now they complement each other perfectly.

Even on the smooth ice, Asker's running speed is still very fast, for the demigod assassins, the balance is not a problem at all, especially the sandman who can freely change his body shape slightly, running barefoot on the ice field, his feet are made of gravel is very rough, enough to resist the smoothness of the ice surface, plus changing the state of his feet at the right time, occasionally let a few straight raised bladed gravel grow under his feet, like an ice blade, he can move forward by sliding, and it speeds up the tracking.

And Pannis, although he doesn't have this convenience, he has his own unique way of fighting the difficulty of the ice. The boots he put on this time have been specially processed, which are specially used to move at high speed on the ice, and there is a short and thick metal nail on the sole of the boot, as long as the foot is heavy enough, the short nail can be inserted into the ice to increase the strength of the forward, due to the shape problem, the nail will not be fixed in the ice, it can be easily pulled out, and it will not have much impact on running. In this way, the speed of the chase is slightly affected by the change in running position, but it is much faster than walking smooth ice in normal boots. This kind of boot was improved by himself more than a hundred years ago, when Pannis and Nelly took Phila and Christo to the ice field for a mission, and the scope of application is very narrow, after all, not everyone has the strength and skill of him, and he can easily get used to changing his way of walking, even he didn't expect that there would be a time when it would come in handy again.

Asker was tracking, running, and now he was just a man, and he couldn't see the shadow of Pennis. But Asker didn't hesitate, his speed remained the same, and he only stopped at some key points to take a look.

"Over there. Asker stopped again, groped with his hands on the ice for a moment, pointed in one direction, and with his voice, Pannis had appeared behind him like a ghost. Looking in the direction he was pointing, Pannis nodded and rushed out quickly, while Asker was full of footsteps and marched at a jogging pace, seizing the time to recover.

Pannis moves forward at the fastest pace, and the movements are fast and fluid, which can be said to be full of beauty. The empty ice field retreated quickly under his feet, and the terrible cold wind seemed to add to his strength, and those strange obstacles on the ice field seemed to have no meaning to him at all, stepping on the hollow ice shell and ignoring it, at the moment when the ice surface was shattered, he had already crossed that position, even if the range was too large to cross the full distance, he only needed to stretch out his hand, and the hook rope popped out and plunged deep into the ice in front of him, and he could pass safely with the power of the hook. The strange creatures in ambush ignored it, and the moment those ice elemental creatures attacked, Pannis only needed to twist his body to avoid the attack at high speed, leaving those creatures far behind. Ignoring the ice crack that blocked the way, when the ice crack appeared in front of him, Pannis didn't even slow down, and directly took the last step, and in the next moment, he had disappeared on the edge of the ice crack. A few seconds later, on the opposite side of the ice crack tens or hundreds of meters, Pannis appeared out of thin air, without even adjusting his steps, as if nothing had happened, and continued his tracking.

Like Asker's watch, Pannis will also stop from time to time to track down on the ground or in the air, but he does so more often than Asker, after all, he is not a pure hunter, and his skills are still slightly different from that of a true master of tracking. However, even if there was a gap, the gap was very limited, at least he could feel that with the cooperation of the two of them, the distance between him and the person in front of him was gradually shortening, and Asker's body, which was also about to be empty, was gradually recovering.

"Positive. Pannis stopped for the last time, squatted on the ground and said a word to the air around him, before the words fell, Aske had already appeared in that position, his hand on Pannis's shoulder, and nodded: "Change me." "To be continued
