Li Xiang was running at full speed in the forest. Towering ancient trees flashed past his body one after another. Mu and Nasoro were also running nearby, but they still maintained a certain distance from him. They pretended to be chasing after him and waited for an opportunity to make their move.
After increasing his senses, Li Xiang now had five senses that were comparable to a top Level-3 Magician. He would be able to detect even the slightest movement in his surroundings. He maintained enough vigilance even as he was running at full speed. He was always on guard against any sudden attacks.
About ten minutes later, he heard light but quick footsteps behind him. These footsteps clearly did not belong to Mu and Nassura. They were the first group of pursuers to approach him so far.
The Space Colossus angrily gave him a reward and even projected the scene into the sky. He was targeted by countless Magicians without any preparation. He did not even have the chance to take off his human skin mask and reclaim his identity. He could only escape from the Death Omen Star Canopy and make plans later. It was too dangerous to expose his true identity here. It was better to maintain his current appearance.
The forest was very simple. There were not many terrains that he could take advantage of. After failing to interfere with the pursuers a few times, it was impossible for him to set up any traps.
The pursuers displayed great battle experience and patience. They were neither arrogant nor impatient. They followed closely behind and were still closing in on him.
Looks like it's an experienced Level-3 Magician. Since he dares to chase after me alone, he must be one of the stronger ones. Li Xiang was slightly shocked. He quickly thought of a strategy to deal with the enemy.
"Support — Spatial Crack." A deep voice sounded from afar.
Li Xiang suddenly felt a sense of extreme danger. The air in front of him suddenly twisted. The light seemed to be refracted by something. A crack appeared in the void, and a person rushed out from it.
Wild Hunter was secretly happy. Ever since he learned this support magic related to the Space Element, his tracking ability had increased by several levels. This time, he was the first to find the person who took away the Primordial Array.
Just like Fei Yujing, he was also a descendant of an evil follower. Wild Hunt's mother was a maid that General Shogun had once doted on. She was also an evil follower, but unfortunately, she died at a young age. Due to his outstanding talent, he was adopted by his first wife, Dale Nidri, and became a member of the Nidri family. Unfortunately, he was not welcomed in the family.
Due to his background, Wild Hunt had always been suppressed by his younger brother, Kuang Tie. However, after he found out about the true identity of the Kuang Tie from various sources, he began to plan his own great undertaking. God bless him, the Kuang Tie was killed by Li Xiang, so he really had one less big problem.
Owl also began to shift his focus to his eldest son. After all, among the many children he had left behind, only he and Kuang Tie had some prospects.
Wild Hunt, who was in his second year, finally managed to enter the Magician Sequence with countless resources. He even used medicine to forcefully raise himself to Level 2 Magician, all for the sake of obtaining some holy relics from the Death Omen Star Canopy to completely change his fate.
Wild Hunt had a treasure that could cover his aura, so many people thought that he was a Level 3 Magician. Combined with his identity and his temperament, many people really fell for it.
He had observed in the dark that this person who was suddenly chosen by the Primordial Array was only Level 1 or 2. He had the ability to take him down.
Li Xiang was still having a headache about how to deal with a Level 3 Magician. Even if he let Mu and Nathoro, who were hiding in the dark, it would be very difficult to kill a real Level 3 Magician. Moreover, wasting time could easily attract more enemies.
However, just as he activated [Eyes of Truth], he was stunned.
This guy … was a pig pretending to be a tiger?!
The aura on his body was clearly very strong, but why did the data only show that he was barely at the standard of a Level 2 Magician?
Could it be that he had some extremely powerful magic trump card?
Li Xiang stopped in his tracks and charged toward Wild Hunt, who had just landed.
He was very careful and did not use any trump cards. Instead, he used his physical strength to lure Wild Hunt.
From the data of [Eyes of Truth], Wild Hunt's physique was definitely not as good as his, so he did not have to worry about being crushed.
If he could force Wild Hunt to use one or two of his trump cards, then Li Xiang would choose to escape immediately according to the situation.
Before Wild Hunt could recover from the spatial tremor, he saw Li Xiang charging toward him as if he did not care about his life. Wild Hunt was shocked!
Why did this guy not play by the rules?
He had clearly displayed the aura of a Level 3 Magician. The difference between a Level 2 and a Level 3 Magician's physique was huge. Why did he dare to fight with his physical body?
Without time to think, Wild Hunt was caught off guard and was hit squarely. The two of them collided, and with a few cracking sounds, Wild Hunt's body flew backward rapidly. A few of his bones were broken just like that.
"Pfft!"
Wild Hunt's blood spurted wildly, and his whole body slammed heavily onto the ground. Li Xiang's strength was above his imagination, and he had almost been seriously injured.
Li Xiang was even more puzzled. Even if Wild Hunt wanted to trick him, there was no need for him to take a full blow from him, right?
Even a Level 3 Magician would not dare to take the power of this collision head-on.
Wild Hunt was even more puzzled and confused. Who was this person? He clearly had such great strength, so why was he still so reckless in battle?
Was he not afraid that he, a Level 3 Magician, would seriously injure him with a slap?
The two of them stared at each other for a while, and then Wild Hunt made the first move. He took out the Origin Gun hidden in his windbreaker and fired at Li Xiang at close range.
A flame-like column of air rushed into the air. This Origin Gun was specially given to him by Owl from the military's equipment warehouse. Its attack power was extremely high, and its performance was only a little worse than the famous Blood Breeds.
Unfortunately, Li Xiang himself was a rare expert gunner. When Wild Hunt pulled out the gun, he saw through his thoughts and actions.
Li Xiang's body bent slightly, and he rushed out again. He suddenly exerted his strength and collided with Wild Hunt.
Most people would think about how to dodge when faced with a Origin Gun at close range. Very few people would directly clash with the user.
This required very precise control and control. Otherwise, the column of air could directly blow up the body.
There was a loud bang.
At the same time of the collision, Li Xiang cleverly avoided the column of air. The Hunter in his hand slashed out three times in a row, sending Wild Hunt flying dozens of meters away.
Wild Hunt was blasted into a giant tree on the opposite side, and then he slowly slid down and withered on the ground. His body had been seriously injured again, and blood continuously spread from his wounds, coagulating in a large patch on the ground.
This time, Li Xiang was completely speechless. His opponent was inexplicably weak, and he looked somewhat similar to those people who used drugs to forcefully increase their strength. He couldn't even take a hit.
Combined with his previous actions and the aura he emitted, he probably had some kind of item or magic that emitted a false aura, which was why he dared to come here. Unfortunately, Li Xiang's strength was far beyond his imagination, and he was defeated in an instant without being able to fight back.
He approached Wild Hunt with the Blood Breeds' Great Name, feeling that this person was somewhat familiar. At this moment, Wild Hunt was leaning against an ancient tree, gasping for breath. His body was stiff and weak. This was the first time he had been so close to death.
The Holy Relic left behind by the evil leader was too tempting. It was actually the original array of a disaster weapon, and the Spatial Behemoth had also given such a generous reward. Whether it was obtained or destroyed, it was a great profit.
This made Wild Hunt, who had always been cautious, use his disguise to test Li Xiang. Unfortunately, his magic was completely countered by the [Eye of Truth], and he couldn't figure out why his opponent would be so reckless and directly attack him.
"Cough, cough, cough …" He spat out a few mouthfuls of black blood. His body was hit, and his internal organs were almost displaced. He was also slashed three times in a row, and each slash was aimed at a vital point. The wounds were so deep that his bones could be seen. Even if Li Xiang didn't finish him off, he would have bled too much and died from serious injuries.
"Do you have any last words?" Li Xiang bent down. He hadn't asked this question for a long time, and seeing Wild Hunt's unwilling and angry face, he couldn't help but ask.
He knew how it felt to die in despair, so he would occasionally take care of people like this.
"Cough, cough … You can't kill, kill me …" Wild Hunt knew that he still had a final trump card. As long as he mentioned General Shogun's name, he would have a high chance of not dying.
General Shogun was a rising general of the military. Even if he had an unclear relationship with the tarot cards, with the support of the Nidri family, the importance of the Black King, and the help of the real bosses behind him, he didn't have to worry about the opinions of the other factions.
As long as he didn't cross the bottom line, he would have a lot of room to maneuver.
No one would want to provoke a lunatic, and a level 2 player at that.
"That's a bit old-fashioned. Is there anything else?" Li Xiang shook his head. If he didn't kill him, would he let the tiger return to the mountain?
The simplest and most useful principle he learned in the Polar night was to eliminate the source of trouble.
No matter who it was, they had to do this.
Because he didn't have the time to continue fighting with the guy he let go, and he didn't want to take this unnecessary risk.
Of course, there were a few exceptions.
Clearly, Wild Hunt was not one of these exceptions.
"Cough, cough, cough, cough … My name is Wild Hunt, the son of General Shogun. Do you dare to kill me?" Wild Hunt raised his head. In this aspect, he was very similar to the children of the aristocratic families who had died.
Even if they had this final trump card, even if they knew that the other party might disregard everything and kill them, they would rather be fugitives and still question him in such a domineering manner.
They had to completely scare the other party so that they could have room to bargain.
But after he said his name and background, Li Xiang's expression suddenly changed.
Immediately, an incomparably brilliant smile bloomed on his face, as if he had heard a very funny joke.
Li Xiang bowed and laughed a few times, somewhat unable to hold back.
Wild Hunt?
Kuang Tie's big brother, General Shogun's eldest son. He was also the mastermind who had hired assassins to kill him before the final trial, the main culprit who had caused the deaths of Bai Haiting and Bai Yunfei!
"You're called Wild Hunt, the eldest son of General Shogun of the Northern Military?"
"Yes."
"You have a younger brother called Kuang Tie."
"So what?"
Wild Hunt felt that something was wrong. This wasn't a confirmation, but more like an interrogation.
"About half a year ago, you gave many children of aristocratic families benefits to get rid of someone in the final trial, and you even didn't hesitate to buy an expensive Demonic Spear to deal with him?" Li Xiang chuckled, the hand behind his back moving slightly.
Mu and Nassero understood and moved closer.
"…" If Li Xiang hadn't mentioned this matter, Wild Hunt wouldn't have been able to immediately recall it.
He had only hired assassins to give an explanation to his parents. He didn't care about Kuang Tie's death at all, but his mother, who had gone crazy because of it, was a huge headache. This was a small matter that he had done in passing. As for the Demonic Spear, it was just an extra layer of insurance.
Unfortunately, it had failed in the end. Those good-for-nothings had all died, and he had almost gotten himself into trouble. Fortunately, Wessex had blocked all video and audio recordings, so the Bai family couldn't find any evidence to prove that he was the mastermind. Only then had he escaped disaster.
After half a year, the stranger in front of him suddenly mentioned it. For a moment, he didn't know whether to admit it or play dumb.
Who knew what role the stranger played in this matter.
"Kill!" Li Xiang suddenly patted his head as if he was patting an animal waiting to be slaughtered.
A black figure suddenly appeared in the void behind him.
Mu took a step forward first. The short blade in his hand stabbed into Wild Hunter's waist, preventing him from letting out a scream. Then, his sharp canine teeth instantly pierced into Wild Hunter's neck.
Blood was essential. Since he was a dead man, she wouldn't waste it.
Human magicians tasted much better than creatures of other races, but this man tasted terrible. It was as if his blood was mixed with many disgusting substances.
"Ptui." Mu spat out a mouthful of flesh and blood in disdain. He turned the hilt of his blade and sealed Wild Hunt's last words in his mouth.
She rarely saw Li Xiang truly angry. Facing such a weak enemy, this was the first time he showed such an expression. This meant that there must be some enmity between the two.
Li Xiang's enemy was her enemy. Mu didn't hold back when he attacked.
"You are even more stupid than your brother. His brain didn't grow. You probably only grew half of it." Li Xiang slowly took off the human skin mask. Compared to letting Wild Hunt die with grievances, letting him know the truth would be more irritating. "You are indeed brothers. You are the same. Did you know that Bai Yunfei, that idiot, used the bullet from your Demonic Gun to shoot his fiancée, my first love? And the final bullet landed on the girl who is … the most important to me. "
"You can deal with me, kill me, or trick me. I don't care. Even if you die, it is your ability. I deserve it. But if you attack the most important person to me, then you should have the determination to get my revenge! You didn't, and neither did the Kuang Tie. Of course, it seems like your father didn't either. "
"Don't worry, it will be soon. A family should always be united, right?" Li Xiang put the human skin mask back on. He was very satisfied with Wild Hunt's unwillingness and fear at the last moment. This evil aura that was released scared Mu and Nathoro quite a bit.
They still didn't know that the father of the man they killed was a level 2 player and Li Xiang's number one enemy.
Letting out a long breath, Li Xiang waved his hand and had Mu and Nathoro quickly follow. There was no time to deal with the corpse. They had to leave immediately.
Less than ten minutes after the three of them disappeared, a new figure appeared in the area.
The blood on Wild Hunt's corpse hadn't dried yet. His expression was ferocious as if he had suffered a great shock before he died.
Fei Yujing and Bai Shihu looked at each other.
Fei Yujing was naturally very happy. This guy had tricked Li Xiang in the ultimate trial and almost caused her to be hit by the Demonic Spear. She had long hated this bastard who had a grudge with Li Xiang and his family.
"Looking at the traces of the fight, Li Xiang didn't plan to kill him at first. This guy was probably stupid enough to say his name and got himself killed." Bai Shihu frowned and looked at her. "I won't hide it from you. The one who took the Primordial Array was Li Xiang. He just disguised himself."
"Wh-what? Cousin Shihu, you said that person is Li Xiang? "Fei Yujing's heart was in a mess. She felt as if her head had been struck by lightning.
"That's right, it's him. It seems like he was chosen by the Primordial Array. This is troublesome." Bai Shihu sighed and signaled for her to chase after him.
Fei Yujing was stunned. She pressed the communication device with her right hand behind her back.
