Purgatory Artist

v3 Chapter 48: Chase and hide

  Chapter 174 Chasing and hiding

  Wind and Snow Fury.

  Except for white, there is no other embellishment between heaven and earth.

  The end of the thick snowfield.

   Liu Ping and Zhao Chanyi sat in front of a cliff and looked down together.

  I saw a transparent dark ice layer below.

  With the eyes of two people, it is natural to see through the ice and large areas of buildings below.

  All these buildings are frozen in the ice.

  Liuping even saw a brand new steel machine, making a flying bird-like movement above the building complex——

  It's just frozen.

   "Combat-type...aircraft..." he whispered.

   "——It's the iron bird on the side of technology!" Zhao Chanyi said cheerfully.

"In the historical records I know, the Kingdom of Ceylon appeared one hundred years ago, and it only existed for a short period of one hundred years, and it just died out not long ago—there is no record in the book that they developed flying machines. Thing... they must have brought something from purgatory, otherwise it would never be possible to achieve this level of civilization."

  After Liu Ping finished speaking, he gently lifted up the snow and sprinkled it toward the deep blue ice below.

  A line of burning small characters quickly emerged:

   "You saw an incomprehensible frozen world with your own eyes."

   "Your role has increased."

   "Current scene 5/10."

  ——The sequence has admitted that the sights it has seen are a secret.

  But people from all walks of life in the entire empire didn’t know about it, and there was no record in various books.

--and many more.

  When did the Kingdom of Ceylon perish?

  Two years ago.

  Or was it a year ago?

   Damn, why is there no detailed record of such a recent history?

  Maybe...

  The fifth expedition team is the first official expedition team?

  Is this the past?

  In fact, after these years of development, the border of the entire empire has gradually expanded.

  The reason why the border cannot continue to move forward at the moment is because outside each border, there are all unknown things, harsh perpetual night environment, and dangerous relics.

  The Kingdom of Ceylon is just a corner on the border.

  Compared with those sleeping on other borders, this place does not have the qualifications of priority detection and treatment.

  ——I’m afraid no one would have thought that this civilization is so amazing.

  So the fifth expedition was killed?

   Liu Ping took out the Loremaster's emblem, but found that the emblem did not move at all.

  Outside the empire, it cannot connect with the war sequence.

  Zhao Chanyi suddenly frowned and said:

   "That scary guy is still chasing."

   "It's really obsession. It's clear that we have all used all kinds of escape techniques and distanced several times. Why is it chasing us so hard and not letting go?" Liu Ping murmured.

  He cast his eyes on the void.

  Lines of burning small prints have already appeared there:

   "Your life fluctuations have been locked."

  "This lock cannot be released. As long as you are still alive, the other party will always be able to sense the breath of life emanating from you, and then find your location."

  -quite tricky.

  Liu Ping narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking about the countermeasures seriously.

  "It is so persistent in hunting you down, is it because you are a healing profession?" Zhao Chanyi asked, tilting his head.

   "No, if every healing profession had to endure this level of pursuit, it would have alarmed the entire empire long ago." Liu Ping said.

   "What should I do now? It's better to fight with it." Zhao Chanyi said.

   "No need... as long as it loses my track, it will immediately give up this pursuit." Liu Ping said.

   "Why?" Zhao Chanyi asked puzzledly.

"Time cost-after all, I am just a level 3 knight who has just advanced, and it is a god. It must have a lot of important things to deal with. For example, the religion in its hands is about to occupy a place in the empire. If I were it, I would not have so much time to look for an ant specifically." Liu Ping said.

  He was silent for a moment, and then said: "Unless I have the value worth it, then there is only one thing—"

   "I took over the mission of the Fifth Expedition and started investigating the remains of the Kingdom of Ceylon again."

   "...Yes, this is the answer."

  Zhao Chanyi took out a pill and ate it, and said vaguely: "Then continue to consume it?"

"This is the end of the ruins. Going forward, we will cross the ruins of the Kingdom of Ceylon and enter an unknown area that is completely undocumented. In fact, it is more dangerous. We'd better find a way to get rid of the monster first." Liu Ping said .

  Zhao Chanyi said: "I had made all preparations before the decisive battle in the Wanren Plain. I knew that choosing to enter the unknown world with you would face all kinds of dangers."

   Suddenly, she took out the storage bag around her waist and said: "Speaking of which, I thought you might be busy with the decisive battle and some trivial things might be overlooked, so I made some preparations for you."

  "Prepare for me?" Liu Ping asked subconsciously.

"Yup."

  Zhao Chanyi took out a string of copper coins, a pill furnace, a pot, a formation plate, bundles of blank talisman and talisman pen from the storage bag.

   "There are too many things needed for the refining device, in fact, I also brought it, if you want, I will take it out again." She said.

  Liu Ping glanced across the objects, and said, "These things can't get rid of it."

  Zhao Chanyi patted the storage bag and pulled out a silver suitcase and placed it in front of Liu Ping.

"what is this?"

  Liuping opened the suitcase.

  I saw two rows of twenty metal boxes neatly arranged inside.

   "It is said to be a kind of bomb. I found that you like these gadgets that explode." Zhao Chanyi said.

   "Inductive, not bad, but these things are of no use to the monster, and it can't even hurt its fur." ​​Liu Ping smiled and shook his head.

   "Also... It seems that we have to think of other ways." Zhao Chanyi said disappointedly.

   Liu Ping suddenly paused, muttering:

   "Anyway, we are almost caught up, let's try."

"try what?"

   "The monster must know something. We have to figure out a way to see what it will do."

  ……

  A black light flies freely in the boundless wind and snow.

  It seemed to be aware of something, it was like a black bat, flew a few times, and then fell into the ruins.

  Boom——

  The fire blasted into the sky, and the violent trembling sound resounded throughout the world.

  After a few breaths, all the sounds were once again drowned by the screaming wind and snow.

  A deep snow pit appeared on the ground.

  The monster with a layer of black light is covered with snow and looks a little embarrassed.

   Attacks like this can’t hurt it at all, but it looks like someone is humiliating it, like saying--

Look.

You got Fooled.

  The monster stretched out its pale bone claws and gently pinched a few pieces of metal.

  "Technology side, bomb..."

  It speaks words.

  The next moment.

  It seemed to perceive something, and flew away in a certain direction.

A few minutes later--

  Boom! ! !

  A violent explosion sounded again somewhere in the wind and snow.

  The monster stood in the empty snow, shaking off the mud and ice.

  It was silent, and continued to run to the next sensed location.

   followed by a roar.

  In the wind and snow, the explosion sounded intermittently again and again.

finally--

  The last explosion sounded.

  Take a breath.

  Two breaths.

  The wind and snow replaced the scream produced by the explosion and once again ruled the world.

  The monster is standing on the edge of the cliff.

  It shook off the snow on its body and looked down.

   "The induction is cut off...Did they enter the ruins?"

  It looked around again.

  A silver box was randomly opened with an unused bomb inside.

   Then there are some trivial human life utensils, such as sledges, food bags, water bottles, tents, and a set of warm clothes.

  These are very common things.

  Obviously, this is the place where the human last stayed, and then he disappeared from here——

  There is only one answer.

  The person really entered the ruins.

  The monster murmured: "How could it be..."

   "If you want to enter the time and space here, you must be recognized by the sequence. Last time, it was a group of polymaths. This time, only a young man can do this?"

  No one answered its words.

  The wind and snow roared constantly.

  The monster was silent for a few breaths, stretched out its bone claw from the robe shrouded in black light, and pointed towards the sky.

  Open the void~lightnovelpub.net~ There is no time to spend with an ant... If he is lucky enough to die, wait until he returns to the empire and catch him..."

  The monster flew up gently, rushed into the void, and quickly disappeared.

  On the snowy field.

  Heavy snow keeps falling.

  Those things on the cliff were gradually buried by snowflakes, and they were no longer visible.

ten minutes later.

  The void suddenly opened.

  The monster quietly fell, looking around, waving away the thick snow.

  I saw the things that were scattered everywhere staying in place, and there were no new traces outside the cliff or on the snowy field.

   The monster sensed a few breaths and murmured: "It hasn't come back, and there is no trace. It really was teleported in."

  It flew high in the sky and disappeared again.

  This time, it never appeared again in the following time.
