The kite was obviously used for sightseeing purposes. The route that Ye Ci used was beautiful, and she could see the most majestic buildings in the map. She would have thought that the kite was flying a little too fast if she was here to tour Champion City.
But that was not the case today. Ye Ci was reaping lives with her kite. It would have been fine if no one was chasing after her, but Fleeting Time was hot on her heels. Logically speaking, it was impossible for a human to catch up to the speed of a kite. It was a pity that the kite's route in Champion City was a shrinking spiral. Fleeting Time could see Ye Ci's kite spinning in circles in the sky. It was getting smaller and smaller, and it was about to land on the ground.
Ye Ci had never been so passive in her life, at least not since her reincarnation. She could not leave the kite, which meant that she had very little space to move around. It was difficult for her to aim at Fleeting Time in such a small space. More importantly, she could not dodge Fleeting Time's attacks due to the limited space. She was constantly worried that Fleeting Time's next attack would land on her. Fortunately, she had leveled up recently, and there was a gap between them. Fleeting Time's attack was still powerful, but his accuracy was not very high due to the level penalty. She would have been dead by now if not for that.
If Ye Ci could sense it, Fleeting Time would naturally be able to sense it as well. After receiving no response from Ye Ci after casting a few of his skills, he knew that Ye Ci was not in control of the thing she was riding. If she was in control of the thing, she would've killed him instead of letting him kill her as he pleased.
Not only that, Gongzi You's movements were restricted, and she was still some distance away from landing. It would not be difficult for him to kill Gongzi You as long as he could control his attacks well.
But it was not satisfying enough. To Fleeting Time, the battle with Gongzi You was not about who would end up dead in the end. It was about the thrilling battle and the scheming that took place during the battle. This was what a competition between experts should be like. Just a massacre like this was really meaningless.
Besides, Gongzi You was a female. In Fate, female characters were weaker than male characters in terms of strength, but they were more agile than male characters. Fleeting Time's actions were not very kind.
However, he noticed a problem after killing Ye Ci. His attacks on Ye Ci were missing more than the last time they fought. Gongzi You's equipment did not seem to have changed at all. That could only mean one thing — Gongzi You was at least 3 levels higher than him.
That was the reason why Fleeting Time had such a low hit rate.
Fleeting Time had a whole new level of respect for Fleeting Time. Even though he didn't really like leveling up, he knew that in online games, a higher level could crush someone to death. If he wanted to stay in an invincible position, not only did he have to be skilled, but he also had to be able to keep up with his level. Fleeting Time was diligent in leveling up, but he did not expect Gongzi You to be as fast as him.
Their hit rate during their last battle was about the same, and Gongzi You was at least 3 levels higher than Fleeting Time. Fleeting Time was curious to know where this woman had gone to grind her levels.
Fleeting Time did not hold back in his attacks. He continued to fire at Ye Ci. On the other hand, Ye Ci could only gulp down bottle after bottle of Health Potion. She was usually too confident, so she did not carry a lot of Health Potions with her. She usually only used them for emergencies. She had never used them to save her life in such a difficult situation.
Ye Ci gritted her teeth. She had no choice but to activate Enhanced Monkey Protection to increase her evasion rate. She would not be able to last much longer if she did not have enough Health Potions with her.
Lily's kite finally landed on the top floor of Champion City's auction house. This was one of the higher places in Champion City. Although it was nothing compared to the palace, she had the upper hand when compared to the six years she spent leaping from roof to roof.
Ye Ci was not at full health, but she only had 2 Health Potions left. She dared not use any more of her Health Potions. She could not afford to be careless in a fight against Fleeting Time. She needed to have something that could save her life. She jumped down from the kite while wrapping herself in a First Aid Bandage. The First Aid Bandage was just completed by Flutter in the Sway. While it was not as effective as Big Red, it was better in quantity. Ye Ci wrapped herself in 3 First Aid Bandages, and her health bar immediately rose from 10% to 80%.
Time was of the essence. Ye Ci could not care less about her full health as she sprinted towards the edge of the roof. Her priority now was to find an opportunity to retaliate against Fleeting Time. She could not afford to let time slip away.
Not all the houses in Champion City were of the same height. They were scattered all over the place and were all different from each other. Therefore, running on the rooftops was completely different from walking on flat ground. Not only did she have to jump at any time, she also had to be careful of the distance between the roofs of two buildings. She could easily fall into the streets. Furthermore, she could still use emergency measures if she were to fall into the streets. But now that the streets were filled with fights, she had to be careful, or she would be beaten to death.
It was for this reason that even an expert like Fleeting Time would have to tread on thin ice when it came to Ye Ci's landing spot.
This was a great opportunity for Ye Ci.
She raised her head and saw a clock tower in the distance, which was very close to where Fleeting Time was running. Ye Ci's body had already made the best decision for her without even thinking about it. She took a few steps back, and dashed forward. She leaped off the roof of the auction house and shot towards the clock tower like an arrow.
While rushing towards the clock tower, she had to control her falling body. It was not an easy task. Fortunately, her limbs and senses had been trained to be very sharp. Even the slightest bit of carelessness could be avoided subconsciously. This allowed her to land in the most accurate position at the fastest speed.
Ye Ci planted a foot on the wall of the clock tower, and used the inertia of her other foot to run towards Fleeting Time. From afar, Ye Ci looked as if she had escaped the gravitational pull of Earth as she ran along the wall. But she knew that the inertia of her charge would not last long.
Fortunately, the walls of the clock tower were not wide. Ye Ci was able to make her way from one corner to the other in no time. Just as she was about to fall, she kicked off the wall and shot towards Fleeting Time like an arrow.
Now's the time! Attack range! Ye Ci switched her Enhanced Monkey Protection to Enhanced Falcon Protection as she ran. Her Hunter's Mark was glowing red above his head. In the blink of an eye, Rapid Fire, Multi Arrow and Viper Stinger were all fired at Fleeting Time.
Fleeting Time's eyes never left Gongzi You even though he was running and jumping carefully from roof to roof. When Gongzi You flew out from the roof of the auction house, he was already prepared to shoot at her. He had to admit that Gongzi You had an advantage over him when it came to utilizing the natural environment. She was able to make her way from the rooftop to the clock tower, and then from the clock tower. She was so beautiful that even Fleeting Time himself could not help but applaud her skills.
A good opponent is not only the most beautiful thing in life, but also the person who understands you the best.
This saying was perfect for the battle between Ye Ci and Fleeting Time. Just like how Ye Ci could predict Fleeting Time's next move with 80% accuracy, Fleeting Time could also predict Ye Ci's next move with 80% accuracy.
This was why Fleeting Time could already predict Ye Ci's next move the moment Ye Ci launched her Enhanced Hunter's Stinger. This was why he did not run toward Ye Ci, but instead retreated to the left.
He unleashed a series of skills at Ye Ci as he leaped into the air.
Ye Ci dodged the attacks with a somersault, and Fleeting Time was able to dodge all of Ye Ci's skills. However, he did not expect Ye Ci's Multi Arrow to be able to fire 7 arrows at once. Due to his poor control of the angle, two of the arrows hit him, and he lost a third of his HP.
As expected of someone with a higher level than you. Fleeting Time frowned as he stared at his HP bar. Not all of his skills were able to hit Ye Ci, but she was able to hit him every single time, and she was able to deal more damage than him.
The situation was not going to be good for him at this rate.
Fleeting Time narrowed his eyes and whistled. A gigantic Vampire Bat appeared beside him.
Ye Ci sneered. Are you the only one who knows how to summon pets? She whistled as well, but was met with a system notification, "This place is not suitable for summoning pets on land."
