Cataclysm King - #108 - Chapter 108: red baron
Chapter 108 The Red Baron
The werewolf’s supernatural perception allowed Ji Xun to clearly perceive the smell and movement in the forest.
There are breaths left from battles in all directions.
The Beast Legion is not here to pursue any customs clearance rewards, so even if the “opportunity plot” is triggered, they will definitely not take the initiative to break the game.
The current tactic must be “hide and seek” in the forest.
Bet that they can avoid the Red Baron, survive until the reinforcements from the human legion arrive on the third day, and then leave the space.
However, the number of demons is still much larger than that of humans. Once scattered, it is like an open fishing net, and it is difficult not to encounter them.
Even low-level demons can’t beat the elite of the beast army, but once a battle breaks out, their position will be exposed.
High-level demons can immediately determine their location and reinforce them.
is exactly the same,
After hiding for a day and a night, the few surviving guard members of the Beast Legion were also greatly reduced.
The hideout of the beast army seems to be nowhere to be found.
The demon legion just searched the forest by chance, besieging and killing anyone they bumped into.
But Ji Xun is clear.
Even if those guys are scattered, their purpose must be to protect that Young Master Kahn.
There are traces to follow.
The Sawtooth Forest has a large area.
As long as the team cooperates well and someone is willing to sacrifice to attract monsters, the probability of that young master Kahn surviving the third day is quite high.
So Ji Xun’s thinking at the moment is that he must give that young master some strength.
Since the space throws all the “opportunities” on the face.
He also wanted to use people like the Beast Legion to test how strong the “Red Baron” was.
Ji Xun sneaked away all the way.
On the road, I also encountered several small demons patrolling in the forest.
And that ubiquitous red-eyed bat.
But he had a small target alone, and he had the relic cloak and shadow sneak, and he passed it smoothly.
Follow the smell of blood all the way to find.
Not long after, he found traces of a battle in the forest.
The towering trees here have been cut down in pieces, and the flames burning on the trees have not been completely extinguished.
There are a large number of demon corpses on the ground.
There are also five human corpses.
There are sticky cobwebs everywhere, and it looks like the masterpiece of [Hell Demon Spider].
Ji Xun has personally experienced the difficulty of this spider.
As long as there is no means of restraint, if you get stuck in the spider web, you will die.
Even so, the five-member team of the Beast Regiment cleared out hundreds of monsters.
I don’t know if the demons are not interested in human equipment, or if the space rules are left behind.
The five corpses were eaten apart from the flesh and blood, and most of the equipment and storage rings remained in place.
Ji Xun checked the surrounding battle traces, and found seven storage rings along the way.
But the medicine cards and so on are almost consumed.
There are redundant equipment and so on.
“Hey, sure enough.”
Ji Xun tidied up the battlefield, which was a small gain.
Just the contents of these storage rings are worth tens of thousands of demon corpses.
Among the several military merit plaques, nearly 10,000 military merits were added to Ji Xun.
It seems that the one hundred people who survived to break through yesterday carried the equipment and combat exploits of nearly three hundred people in the entire legion.
Really want to find the bodies of the remaining people, this is not a small sum.
Moreover, the value of a corpse is not just equipment and combat exploits.
After checking the traces, Ji Xun found some other “clues”.
There are traces of five people fighting all the way in the forest.
It’s like a directional arrow marked on a map.
Ji Xun also concluded that the direction that the team deliberately avoided by fleeing was likely to be the position of the young master Kahn.
Although the scope is still very large.
But as long as a few more such battle scenes are found, the scope will become smaller and smaller.
Really lucky.
Maybe you can really meet that young man in the vast forest.
Ji Xun thought of this, and was also very interested.
He searched for more than half an hour in the forest.
It didn’t take long for him to find the second battle scene.
However, this time the battlefield is a bit special.
Follow the traces all the way.
From a long distance, I saw burn marks on the sawtooth tree trunks and on the ground.
“Hellfire?”
Ji Xun was burned by a three-headed dog before, and when he saw these scorched marks, he immediately thought of something.
It is not difficult to speculate that the fighting party is a powerful demon who is good at using hellfire.
But when he saw the corpse, Ji Xun’s expression suddenly became serious.
It is still an elite team of five.
But now the traces of fighting are far less intense than before.
One was crushed to the head, one was punched through the chest, one was smashed with a knee-like fighting technique, and a tree was broken, and the abdomen was pierced
The wounds have burn marks.
are all one-hit kills.
The most exaggerated thing is the black knight.
Ji Xun walked over, looking at the black knight who seemed to be lying in a crater, his eyes flickered sharply.
“The black knight’s armor has been shattered?”
Ji Xun’s eyes twitched inexplicably.
It is hard to imagine what kind of terrorist attack can achieve this effect.
His thoughts suddenly turned.
A picture appeared in his mind: a tall flame monster instantly killed four people, and then pressed the black knight under him, punching hard. The violent force caused the ground to sink deeply. The black knight persisted with a few more punches with his armor, but he didn’t have any chance to fight back. Until the armor was cracked by the hammer, he died suddenly on the spot.
“It’s a bit ridiculously strong.”
Ji Xun thought of this, and murmured in his heart.
He has personally seen the combat power of the five-member elite team of the Beast Regiment.
Even if they encounter a second-order disaster, this kind of team can still fight.
Didn’t expect to be killed so simply.
”The height is more than five meters, the speed of short-distance dash is extremely fast, the hellfire is controlled by the law, the strength is super strong, and the defense is super strong. There is no shortcoming.”
Ji Xun observed the surrounding battle traces and got many useful clues.
As far as the current method is concerned, none of the second-order A-level demon commanders who appeared did not have this method.
So it can only be the “Red Baron”.
“It’s very tricky.”
Ji Xun saw this and came to the conclusion that this monster is invincible.
But after reaching this conclusion, the corners of his mouth raised instead, and he said in his heart, “But that Young Master Kahn must have a lot of life-saving things in his hands, and I don’t know if he can get rid of them.”
The previous Tier 2 Demon Commanders could do nothing to that Young Master Kahn.
Now this, seems enough.
Needless to say, the single-body combat power of this demon is absolutely invincible in the different-dimensional space.
Ji Xun estimated that this was probably a second-order S, or a third-order disaster.
But the Beast Legion must also have a lot of life-saving cards and ancient relics in their hands.
Not necessarily no chance of winning.
If the two parties don’t touch each other, Ji Xun will find it too boring.
Thinking of this, he cleaned up the battlefield, and then continued to search in the forest.
He felt that he had to help the demon army find those people.
The smell of corpses can travel tens of kilometers in the forest, especially the smell of human corpses.
Ji Xun relied on the werewolf’s super sense of smell to follow him all the way.
It took half a day.
He found the third, fourth, and fifth battlefields.
After seeing more and more battlefields, the clues in Ji Xun’s mind became clearer and clearer.
He took out a pen and paper, and drew a sketch of the military ground he saw before.
Then marked the positions of several discovered battlefields, as well as the escape trajectories of those five-member teams, and also marked lines on the map.
There are signs that these teams are not running around in a panic.
Instead, there are masters commanding the layout.
It was specially used as a bait for Mr. Kahn to escape.
Ji Xun is now very familiar with the corpse, and by checking the temperature and stiffness of the corpse, he can immediately determine the exact time of death.
Once the time and route are determined, many things can be determined.
“First fled to the northeast corner, then turned to the southeast, and then went to the north?”
Ji Xun looked at the picture he had drawn with a puzzled expression at first.
But after thinking about it for a while, it suddenly dawned on me.
He analyzed several possible directions for Mr. Kahn to escape.
But most likely, it is a line pointing north to the Wailing Abyss.
“Now that the demon army is pressing down near the Thunder Fortress, it is safer to be close to the base camp of the Howling Abyss? That Fox Commander is fighting the idea of ’the most dangerous place is the safest’? Tsk tsk, without me, this plan might not be possible. It really made you escape successfully.”
Ji Xun felt that if he was in that situation, he would do the same.
The wisdom of high-level demons is not lower than that of ordinary humans. If they blindly flee to safety, the other party must be able to guess such a superficial intention.
Those five-man squads that were intercepted are the best examples.
But in fact, these are all “bait” to confuse the devil.
Soldiers take risks.
Ji Xun guessed that Mr. Kahn’s team headed north!
As long as there are enough “baits”, this is the most stable choice.
If you really want them to hide like this, maybe they can really survive for three days.
After all, the demon legion didn’t know that these humans were covering “Master Kahn”.
Ji Xun thought of this, and suddenly laughed.
Unfortunately, I know.
He is also going to try his luck.
What if it happens?
Ji Xun doesn’t think his judgment must be correct.
But at least there is an idea.
He searched for the past in the direction he had speculated all the way.
Coincidentally.
When he was walking north, he heard the sound of fighting in the forest near Thunder Fortress in the south.
The movement is not small.
From far away, Ji Xun saw the flames soaring into the sky.
Before switching to another job, Ji Xun must still be interested in seeing it.
But now that he has decided on his train of thought, he is even more certain that his judgment is correct.
This kind of devious plan is to abandon the car to protect the commander. Someone must attract the firepower of the monsters, tear up the encirclement, and confuse the enemy.
It will definitely not be Mr. Kahn and his party that are exposed now.
Then it can only be bait.
Ji Xun doesn’t need to be alone, he can walk very quickly.
I don’t know if he was lucky,
Master Kahn was still out of luck.
After walking in the dense forest for more than two hours, Ji Xun suddenly discovered something unusual in the forest.
This woodland is marked on the map as “Windwind Sandstone Forest”.
Because of the perennial wind blowing, a large area of nearby land is weathered sand and gravel, which will leave obvious marks when stepped on.
But this area is the only way to go north.
Ji Xun felt that those guys would definitely not make such low-level mistakes, so they would definitely walk along the outer edge of the sand.
Ji Xun himself chose the same way.
Walking along, he accidentally found a very shallow human footprint.
There is fine sand floating around here. If there are too many people, it will inevitably leave some traces.
This kind of small mistake was not a big problem at first.
After all, demons don’t look at shallow footprints, and most of them have already been attracted to the other side.
The forest is so big, it is not so easy to be found.
But what he found was Ji Xun.
When he saw the footprints, he was 100% sure of his judgment.
“It seems that Mr. Kahn is not far away.”
Ji Xun muttered in his heart.
Observed the direction of the footprints, and without delay, he chased them all the way.
He doesn’t worry about traps or anything.
Now set traps on the road, if they are triggered by demons, they will reveal their location instead.
The loss outweighs the gain.
Not long after, Ji Xun was running but stopped suddenly.
Those blue wolf eyes looked at the dark forest in front of him, revealing a touch of dignity.
The werewolf’s strong sense of crisis made him aware that the crisis was approaching.
“Has it been discovered?”
Ji Xun felt that although he hid himself well, he was not accidentally discovered.
The methods of the Beast Legion have already been seen, and it would be strange if they were not discovered when they got close.
“Should be a stealth assassin”
Ji Xun raised his eyebrows slightly.
It can only be a very good assassin who hides it so well.
But if the opponent doesn’t take the initiative to attack, it is difficult for him to find out.
Ji Xun dare not be careless.
Those who stay with that young master Kahn must be the elite among the elite, and they are not guaranteed to be dropped by some incomprehensible means as soon as they show up.
But now, it is not someone from Ji who is hiding from XZ.
Since it was suspected that they had encountered someone, it was already certain that the group of Beast Legion was nearby.
So
The rest will be handed over to the Demon Legion!
Thinking of something, Ji Xun grinned, he suddenly took out the flare gun, and then fired two shots into the dense forest.
Not bullets, but flares!
“Biu~”
“Biu~”
Two flares exploded in the forest, and the other exploded in the sky through the canopy.
In an instant, white light illuminated a large area nearby.
Also illuminated the startled eyes of the two stealth assassins!
At the same time, two kilometers away, the twenty or so people who were walking secretly under the cover of relics were also shocked.
Looking at the dazzling flares in the sky, the fox commander of the Beast Legion turned ashen, frightened and angry: “How is that possible?”
As soon as the flare came out, he already knew their position was exposed.
And his own devious tactics, all previous efforts were wasted!
No need to guess, it must be the guy who sneaked into them before.
“Damn it, how did that guy know?”
Commander Fox’s face was ashen.
The Sawtooth Forest is so big, how could it be precisely chased by people?
They sacrificed more than a dozen teams to cover before they came here.
Originally thought that he had fooled the devil’s eyeliner.
Unexpectedly, he was cornered by two flares.
For a moment, he even suspected that there was something wrong with their army.
But now is not the time to think about it.
The position is exposed, and hiding is meaningless.
Commander Fox yelled, “Everyone is ready to fight!”
On the other side, after Ji Xun fired two shots, he also revealed his position.
The two assassins lurking nearby did not continue to hide, but rushed towards him decisively.
If you don’t kill this guy quickly, there will be even greater hidden dangers later.
The two stood one behind the other, their figures were as fast as ghosts.
This is the assassin’s advanced movement method [Phantom Step], a short-distance sprint is like teleportation.
Even as soon as Ji Xun put down the launcher in his hand, the two poisoned daggers appeared on his neck and heart.
Regardless of coordination or strength, this can be regarded as the top existence among the first-level card masters.
However, seeing the two men attacking, Ji Xun didn’t panic at all, a reflection flashed in his eyes.
The dagger was about to pierce the skin.
With a whoosh, Ji Xun’s figure disappeared on the spot.
Looking again, the tall werewolf body had strangely appeared on top of the assassin behind him, and then the wolf claws struck down heavily.
At this moment, it seemed that time slowed down a hundred times.
Ji Xun expressionlessly pushed the assassin to the ground, causing gravel to fly.
At the same time as exerting force, the sharp wolf claws showed a cold light, and sneaked into the assassin’s bare neck.
In an instant, blood droplets splashed out and slowly floated in the air.
A “click” sound of bone cracking was vaguely heard.
The other side.
The assassin on the front saw that he had missed with one blow.
He jumped in mid-air, his eyes widened: so fast!
Ji Xun raised his head and glanced at him indifferently, while severely injuring the assassin below him, he pulled out his hand again.
Obviously, the movements of the two assassins seemed to be slowed down several times, but the knife in Ji Xun’s hand seemed unaffected and remained fast.
With a backhand knife, he pierced the neck of the assassin in front of him who was too late to use the knife.
At this time, time seemed to return to normal.
There was a “boom”, the muffled sound of being pressed heavily on the ground at this moment, and then came from the ground.
There was a “poof”, and the blood was soaring.
Happened almost at the same instant.
One assassin was lying on the ground, not knowing whether he was alive or dead, while the other was spurting blood from his neck.
And Ji Xun stood there indifferently, holding a bleeding scalpel in his hand.
Ji Xun instantly killed the two of them, glanced at the corpse, and didn’t show much expression.
This elite assassin may still have been a great threat when he first entered the space.
Facing will also cause scalp numbness.
But now, there is no such feeling.
Even if these two assassins have reached the peak of the first order, their agility attribute is estimated to be only 30 points.
Now Ji Xun’s agility attribute of over forty points after becoming a beast is far superior to that of ordinary second-level spell card masters!
Still over forty with all attributes!
How could this be something that a first-order spell card master could fight in close quarters?
There is still a chance to sneak attack while hiding.
But melee combat is completely impossible.
Agility is not only the speed of movement, but also the speed of nerve response.
It is not whoever makes the first move will be able to take the lead.
Ji Xun’s current nerve reaction speed, against this kind of opponent, even if a dagger is stuck to his neck, he can avoid it.
Instantly killing two people, pure suppression of attributes.
“not bad.”
Ji Xun tested Skyrocket’s strength, and exhaled slightly.
The movement around the forest is getting louder and louder.
Didn’t dare to delay, he packed up the loot on the corpse, and quickly disappeared into the darkness.
Ji Xun’s two flares have already attracted all the nearby demons.
Although he has not yet determined where those people, Mr. and Mrs. Kahn, are.
But there is no need for him to mix it up.
A large number of demons can help him confirm.
Now that it has been exposed, it is impossible for the people of the Beast Legion to hide and walk slowly.
There are so many of them, they can’t run fast.
Suddenly, there was the sound of fighting in front of the forest, and some demons were attracted to it.
“Are the troops divided again?”
Ji Xun looked at it and sneered.
There are not many people left, but he wants to see how many times the other party can divide.
Ji Xun thought about it, found a direction and continued to chase.
I can only blame Mr. Kahn for his unlucky luck. Now this location is on the edge of the windy sandstone forest, and he can’t hide his figure when he enters the sandstone area to the east.
So you can only run towards the north and west.
Once the bait attracts firepower, there are fewer directions to choose.
Ji Xunli decided on this point, and chased after him in a circle.
By the way, a few more flares were fired to guide the demons.
After chasing for a while, he saw more and more red-eyed bats nearby, and knew that he could let go.
Now there is no one around that young master Kahn.
The number of baits is insufficient, and devious tactics cannot be used.
They can only gamble on luck and not be stopped by high-level demons.
If this escapes again, it will be lucky.
But it turns out that fate doesn’t favor some dudes who deserve to die.
Not long after, a battle broke out in another part of the forest.
Young Master Kahn encountered his last elite guard and the demon head-on, and a battle broke out.
Although it was very short, the elite army rushed past.
But once the whereabouts are exposed, it is impossible to hide it.
Ji Xun was chased by **** dogs for most of the forest before.
Now it’s the wave of people who are being chased.
He also liked it.
Listening to the direction of the dog barking, Ji Xun followed suit.
Choose a safe distance to watch the battle, and follow along to watch the fun.
I have to say that the remaining dozen elites of the beast army are really powerful.
Several people have relic-level equipment and special cards in their hands.
The first-order calamity was destroyed almost instantly.
Even if it is a second-order C-level or D-level disaster, a few people can still kill it with the cooperation.
The dozen or so people ran wildly all the way, and the few demon legions that came were shattered at the first touch.
No one can stop them.
But after all, the team doesn’t run fast together.
The demon legion is also in hot pursuit.
To chase is to consume.
Chasing and chasing, the turning point happened.
The young master Kahn was able to keep up at first, and various advanced body skills emerged one after another, making him look like a master.
However, after running for a long time, he suddenly slowed down.
Ji Xun looked at it and laughed.
Obviously, this young man is “out of blue”.
Even strong potions can’t make up for it.
The rest of the dozen or so people in that team are all first-tier, but they are all the elite among the elite. They also practice advanced breathing techniques, and their mana values are definitely first-class at the same level.
However, this young and old is a short board in the team, and there is a big difference.
If he can’t run, neither can anyone else.
The speed is dragged down, and you can only forcefully kill monsters to break through.
What’s worse, probably because too many high-level calamities were killed, the news has reached the top of the demon army.
After the Lionheart family was chased and ran around in the forest, not long after, a red-skinned demon with flames all over his body appeared in sight.
Even when Ji Xun watched, his pupils shrank suddenly: “The Red Baron?”
Thought it was the third level, but seeing that it was the second level, he was slightly relieved.
【Red Baron · Dodoun】
Detailed Explanation: Tier 2 A Calamity, the son of a demon lord, a pure-blooded high-ranking demon, and the vanguard commander; his bloodline gives him powerful power and the ability to control hellfire, and he also has a supreme body that far exceeds that of demons of the same rank ;
“But the Supreme Hegemony. What’s the situation?”
With the cognitive blessing of the clown mask, Ji Xun saw more information.
There were no surprises about the others, but looking at the description of the “superior body”, he didn’t quite understand it.
can’t read.
But it does not prevent him from knowing that this ability must be very powerful.
