A Race to (Be) The Top

Chapter 56: Illusory Mantra ┃I have nothing to help Master, only this

Views:

Poison Dou walked over, and Dou Kou was stressed by him during this period of time, and immediately became 100% vigilant: "What are you doing here again?"

Poison Dou only asked Ling Xiaolu, "Little brothers, what are you going to do?"

"We are going to compete with Dou Niwan to catch foxes, do you want to go?"

Poison Dou crossed Dou Kou meaningfully through his mask's gaze: "With people from Dou Niwan here, of course I want to go."

If it hadn't been for free massacres in the arena, how could the people of Dou Niwan have survived unharmed until now.

"You—" Dou Kou was about to get angry. Thinking of the purpose of this trip, he had to swallow his anger, "Give me a face this time, and talk about the strength of the field in the future."

"Um..." Poison Dove deliberately made a long tone.

"Can I ask you once?" Dou Kou roared angrily, "I just want to catch a fox for my daughter!"

"Why didn't you apologize?" Ling Xiaolu asked.

Dou Kou raised his neck: "Apologizing is impossible! But I can have a showdown with him!"

Ling Xiaolu had no choice but to take such a stubborn Dou Kou, and it seemed that Dou Niwan's unfortunate days would continue.

Poison Dove put his hands in his pockets: "Little brother, I won't go to catch foxes, but if anyone is competing unfairly, call me at any time."

"Okay!" Ling Xiaolu responded immediately.

"I'm going, I'm going," Chang Huanxi pulled Ling to join, "I haven't caught a pet yet, so I'm going to open my eyes."

"let's go!"

Nan Xun saw the group of them leave from a distance, and asked curiously, "Sister Chuya, where are Brother Lubi going?"

"I heard that I went to catch the baby."

"Catch the baby? I want to go too."

Chu Ya stopped her: "You can't go."

"why?"

"All the skills used in catching pets are valid for unbound fan names, not to mention that there are so many of them, do you want to be immobilized and unable to move, or are you scared to run around?"

Nan Xun was so frightened that she stuck out her little tongue: "Then I'm not going to join in the fun."

The cloud fox haunts the highest snow-capped mountain in Beimang, where there is thick fog. It is said that the mountain peaks are towering into the clouds, and the fog is essentially a cloud, and the cloud fox is also named after it.

Li Zheng found a spacious and open flat ground, picked up his long sword, and drew a rectangular coordinate system with a curve on the snow with a few swords.

Ji Meng frowned slightly: "Let's argue, let's catch the fox, what are you doing with the advanced functions?"

"The place where the cloud fox appears at different times is different. These are its dynamic coordinates, but the probability of it appearing at each coordinate point is only 5%. Whether it can be found depends on your luck."

Ling Xiaolu: ? ?

Dou Kou was even more at a loss: "What are you talking about... What a joke... Can you speak human words?"

Ji Meng glanced at the function graph on the ground, pulled up Ling Xiaolu, turned around and left.

"Hey, where are you going? You know the coordinates just by looking at it?"

Li Zheng followed behind them without hesitation, and Chang Huanxi also firmly followed with Zero. Only the people from Dou Niwan stayed where they were and looked at each other, not knowing whether to follow up or stay to solve the problem.

"You guys!" Dou Kou pointed angrily at the figure on the ground, "Doesn't anyone know what this means?"

The followers tried hard: "Patriarch, why don't we search in a blanket manner?"

"Do you still need to find Lizheng for a carpet search?!" Dou Kou felt that he had been fooled, and Lizheng must have deliberately asked the question to let him go. The people from Lutoshe already knew where the fox was, "I can't think of a better looking one. People, the more scheming!

"You guys, go to the neighborhood to search for signs of foxes! You guys, go after Ji Meng and them with me, don't let them take the lead!"

There is only one person left, "Patriarch, what about me?"

Dou Kou hated that iron was not steel: "Idiot! Take the picture, send it to the world, and ask if anyone understands what this thing means!"

"Oh, good patriarch!"

Ji Meng and his party came to the fork in the road: "It's possible to appear in both directions, the three of you go over there, and Lubi and I go this way."

Chang Huanxi agreed and ran with Ling, but Li Zheng followed Ling Xiaolu step by step.

"What are you doing here?" Ji Meng was not happy to see him. "The two of them are inexperienced. What if they killed the fox by mistake?"

Li Zheng was noncommittal: "I'm going this way, it's safer."

Ling Xiaolu misunderstood the meaning of "safety" in Li Zheng's mouth: "Master, do you mean that Yunhu is very dangerous and difficult to catch?"

Li Zheng stared at him who was unaware of his own situation and made a pun: "Yeah, it's very dangerous."

Ji Meng also explained to him: "The wild cloud fox has a confusing skill that can make people fall into hallucinations. If you see it, you can't chase it too deeply."

"Understood! Will I beat people when I enter the hallucination? This skill is indeed a vixen!"

Ji Meng came to the edge of a raised rock and reached out to touch the snow on it.

"If the calculation is correct, the haunting point of the cloud fox at this time is near here."

"Then let's take a look around here."

Ling Xiaolu was about to leave, but was stopped by Ji Meng.

"No, you can let it come to us on its own."

After all, Ji Meng took out the ecstasy powder from his luggage.

Ling Xiaolu: … Why is it always this way!

"You can't use ecstasy." The voice of discord came from diagonally behind.

"That's right!" Ling Xiaolu immediately echoed loudly.

Ji Meng didn't know why: "Why can't it be used?"

"Because...because..." Ling Xiaolu racked his brains to think of a reason, "Because Yunhu is a minor! Ecstasy is useless to it!"

Ji Meng looked disbelieving: "Yunhu is also a minor? Are you sure?"

Ling Xiaolu gestured with his hand: "Haven't you seen my master's one? It's just such a big dumpling..."

Li Zheng couldn't stand it any longer: "Besides Yunhu, there are other raptors and beasts here. If you attract them, Yunhu will not dare to appear."

This reason sounded more reliable than Ling Xiaolu's. Ji Meng accepted the ecstasy powder with half-belief: "Then let's go to the next coordinate point, maybe we can meet."

The three went deeper into the forest, and the deeper they went, the thicker the snow. Not to mention the white fox here, the limited breath of life only comes from the coniferous trees covered with snow.

"Li Zheng, are you really not wrong?" Ji Meng didn't doubt that his calculation was wrong.

Li Zheng didn't say anything, but Ling Xiaolu jumped up: "There are footprints over there!"

There are footprints, which means that Yunhu has been in the vicinity not long ago.

Ling Xiaolu was full of admiration for Ji Meng: "How did you calculate the coordinates all at once? You must be a math genius!"

Ji Meng was a little embarrassed by his praise: "It's so simple, anyone can see it!"

"Who said that? I can't see it." Ling Xiaolu didn't expect to find the fox's trail so quickly, and was very excited, "Let's follow the footprints to catch up!"

Li Zheng called out the Beast Radar. Although he could not lock the position for the time being, he had already responded, proving that Yunhu was in the area.

Luckily, even he himself took more than a week to get it.

"Don't worry," Ji Meng didn't bluff like Ling Xiaolu, "it's easy to scare him away if he catches up rashly."

"Then what?"

Ji Meng's palms hanging on both sides slammed into force: "Fixing Charm!"

The powerful airflow blasted and spread, stretching for several miles, the sky was covered with snow, and the pine trees reappeared in green.

"It can't run away for the time being." Ji Meng withdrew his hand confidently.

Ling Xiaolu: … I love you! Good uncle! I want to have sex with dogs!

Ji Meng took a step forward and found that Ling Xiaolu did not keep up, so he turned back in confusion: "Where's yours?"

Li Qiang stood between the two of them first, his left hand naturally placed on Ling Xiaolu's shoulder, and he leaned over slightly: "What's wrong with you, Tu'er? Is it too cold and frozen? Didn't I tell you that in Beimang Don't turn on the ambient sensor too high?"

"..." Ling Xiaolu didn't know which one was more chilling for a while - was it Ji Meng's sudden immobilization spell, or Li Zheng's sudden concern

Ji Meng strode back and said, "Are you stupid? Can you forget to adjust the environment sensor?"

The remote radar made a small beep sound, Ji Meng paused, of course he knew what the sound represented.

"Locked to Yunhu's position?"

Li Zheng glanced at the radar lightly: "27 degrees southwest, 160 meters."

Ji Meng called up his radar, and it was exactly what Li Zheng said.

Li Zheng's long sleeves covered most of Ling Xiaolu's body, as if he was warming him.

"You go first, we'll be there later."

Ji Meng felt that something was wrong and was still hesitating. Ling Xiaolu struggled to speak: "Husband... go... don't let... run away... "

It's an irresistible tone.

"Hurry up!" Ji Meng said, and quickly disappeared in the southwest direction.

Ling Xiaolu's immobilization state entered a countdown, 3, 2, 1, released, and finally finished.

"Master, we..." As soon as he grabbed Li Zheng's sleeve, he couldn't move again.

The people from Dou Niwan cheered and ran past: "I found it! Yunhu is here!"

"The radar has a signal!"

Dou Kou hurriedly shouted while running: "Don't mess up the formation! Everyone wraps up in a circle, don't break the chain!"

Ling Xiaolu scolded "I love you" a thousand times in his heart.

Fortunately, their attention was all on Yunhu, and no one cared about Ling Xiaolu and Li Zheng who were standing still.

Li Zheng quickly looked around, confirmed that no one was there, and jumped Ling Xiaolu to a tree.

Continue to stay on the ground, the target is too obvious, maybe they will find it when they chase.

The sound of people shouting and screaming came from the wind, and it seemed that the capture was not as smooth as expected.

Ling Xiaolu relied on Li Zheng's strong support to keep him from falling off the tree trunk. Thinking back to the first time the two met, they seemed to be in the same situation.

Li Zheng's icy and inorganic voice sounded in the wind and snow: "If it's not good to wait, then go offline."

Ling Xiaolu was glad that he couldn't speak at the moment, otherwise he wouldn't know what to say.

A white shadow flashed past under his feet, it was Yunhu!

Even if more than a dozen people in front were encircling and suppressing them together, this clever little guy escaped the encirclement.

The people from Dou Niwan were chasing after him noisily.

"Fix it! Quickly fix it!"

"Patriarch, the immobilization spell is cooling down!"

"What about intimidation? And deterrence! I don't care what you use, you mustn't let it run away!"

Ling Xiaolu, who was standing on the tree, swayed unsteadily, and was grabbed by Li Zheng's middle. The visible beads of sweat seeped from his forehead, ran down his cheeks, and flowed to the tip of his chin, hanging there reluctantly.

Yunhu was restrained by the shock, lying on the ground, whimpering, Ling Xiaolu, who was on the top, suddenly felt a little distressed.

The crowd in Dou Niwan carefully surrounded Yunhu again: "Patriarch, I still have ecstasy here, do you want to use it?"

Ling Xiaolu tried his best to lift his sweaty eyelids, and vaguely recognized that Li Zheng was speaking to him with his mouth: Off the assembly line!

If I had known this would happen earlier, Ling Xiaolu would never have come! It's easy to get offline, and when I look back, I have to explain to Ji Meng why I suddenly got offline, or I have to face the prince's anger again. Why do you think this person has such a big temper

Ling Xiaolu resignedly began to recite "emergency offline".

"Stop it! Stop it!" There was a commotion below.

Yunhu broke free from the shackles of shock, passed through Dou Kou's legs with a "swish", and ran into the woods again.

Dou Kou jumped in a hurry: "It's all trash! Chase me!"

The clattering people are all gone again, and Ling Xiaolu has experienced ups and downs.

Li Zheng's arm suddenly tightened, Ling Xiaolu saw Ji Meng riding a shadow deer running from a distance, looking around.

"Lubi? Lubi!"

This guy, instead of catching the fox, is looking for himself everywhere. God knows how much danger he took to hide here!

Ji Meng searched the scene anxiously and angrily, but did not find Ling Xiaolu looking at him weakly from the tree above his head.

Where have people gone! Li Zheng is gone, the prince is very angry!

He set out to look for the deer, and the bead of sweat that lingered on Ling Xiaolu's jaw finally couldn't escape the call of the earth, and fell vertically, hitting the snow where Ji Meng had stayed.

Li Zheng helped Ling Xiaolu to jump back to the ground: "I'll take you back first."

Ling Xiaolu was not very fluent in speaking, and his tongue froze: "I'll go back... Dongye, turn back like this... to explain something."

Not only did Ji Meng need to make up excuses, but more importantly, he didn't know what to say next if he was alone with Li Zheng.

Li Zheng stared at him for a moment with obscure eyes: "Okay."

Ling Xiaolu didn't dare to look at him, so he lowered his head and read the article.

The shouting came again, Ling Xiaolu panicked, and the transmission reading was interrupted.

"Apprentice."

Li Zheng wanted to catch him, Ling Xiaolu turned back subconsciously: "I'll go!"

Li Zheng didn't expect him to run, and he was a step too late to track the tree species. Ling Xiaolu's figure disappeared into the snow-covered forest.

"Disciple!" Li Zheng's voice was drowned out by the noisy voices from far and near.

Dou Kou rode a white tiger and stopped beside him: "Beauty, have you seen the fox?"

Li Zheng turned his head sharply, with anger in his eyebrows, Dou Kou subconsciously manipulated the white tiger to take two steps back.

Li Zheng flicked his long sleeves, fanned the wind, and flew into the forest, disappearing after a few moments.

Dou Kou had a lingering fear in his heart: "I didn't expect Li Zheng to be so terrifying." He thought about it again, "But it's still pretty."

He raised his voice: "Give me a carpet search! Don't miss a single spot!"

Ling Xiaolu fled to the deepest part of the forest alone. It was extremely quiet here, covered in silver and mist, so no one would come again.

The ambient music here is also moving to the extreme, ethereal and sobbing, like a snow elf singing in the ear, every word and every beat from a dream. If it weren't for this tense situation, Ling Xiaolu might still be able to sit down and listen intoxicated.

There was a fluffy thing in front of him, Ling Xiaolu wiped his eyes, for fear of misunderstanding.

"… Yunhu?"

The snow-white cloud fox sat obediently under the big tree in front of him, staring at him with black eyes. Maybe they are "similar", the existence of Ling Xiaolu can't pose a threat, it doesn't mean to escape at all.

Ling Xiaolu's heart is full of contradictions, the goal is right in front of him, but he does not have any skills to tame pets.

He thought and thought, although he can't catch pets, he can "catch" pets, as long as he catches them, he can let Li Zheng come and conquer them.

He felt that this idea was a good idea, and tiptoed closer: "Little baby, don't run, come to my brother."

Ling Xiaolu fluttered in the air, Yunhu swayed his big tail not far from him, as if he was deliberately mad at him.

"...You're not good." Ling Xiaolu got up and wanted to chase again, but Yunhu suddenly jumped up and circled in the air.

The scene in front of Ling Xiaolu was distorted. He looked around in a panic, but his vision became more and more blurred...

Li Zheng finally found Ling Xiaolu in the depths of the forest, but he looked very wrong and stood there dumbfounded, not even responding to his approach.

"Teacher?" Li Zheng called him tentatively, and then waved his hand in front of him, Ling Xiaolu's eyes didn't blink.

It turned out to be the illusion of Yunhu, Li Zheng was relieved. He picked up the sword art and was about to apply the method of lifting, but Ling Xiaolu opened his mouth without warning.

"Master..."

The strife movement stopped.

Ling Xiaolu looked forward with a dull expression, and there might be a sense of strife in his hallucinations.

His voice was calm and slow, without much heaving.

"Master, I have been avoiding you on purpose, not because you are too cruel to me, nor because you let me farm, feed my pets, and repair the yard...

"I'm avoiding you because you're too smart, and I don't seem to be able to hide any secrets from you.

"In my eyes, you are not only smart, but also very good-looking and powerful. You are the kind of god I imagined to be before I played games. You are perfect in every aspect, and I have always believed that your perfection, Your strength is natural.

"If you didn't say that, saying that you also learned from a novice, I would never have thought that you also grew up from my stage, and you also had a period when you were ignorant about the game, you were not born As powerful as this, you also had a master.

"I am a little envious of your master, because she has seen the strife in the novice period, and maybe she has seen the low-level mistakes that you make only when you are a novice. She taught you the game common sense you taught me, and showed you the world... These are the first times I saw you and me at the peak, and I can't imagine it.

"I think she should be as important to you as you are to me. In the game, I know your name is Li Zheng, and I know what you look like. But out of the game, we are strangers in the vast sea of people, you don't know each other. I, I don't recognize you either. If one day, you leave here suddenly and silently, I will desperately want to ask, why did you leave

"Even for that reason, it won't change the outcome of your departure, it won't bring you back here. But I'd still like to know what made you make that decision, what made you cut us off. The only link between them is what causes you to lose your attachment to the world."

A tear slipped silently from the corner of his dull eye.

"Master, I often play stupid in front of you because I don't know how to respond to your expectations.

"Just today, the invincible you in my mind fell in front of me, I hate myself for being powerless, I can't revive you like Qingmei. I heard my opponents deliberately mocking you, I can't imagine that in a larger than the arena In the many times of the situation, in the cheers of the mountains and tsunamis, in the eyes of the players in the full server, how did you face the ruthless ridicule after their victory, Master.

"Master, just treat me as a glass heart. From now on, I don't want to see you again and lose to anyone. No matter Jiba, Qingmei, or anyone else, I hope you can always stand on the top of invincible, forever. Be the perfect invincible master in my mind."

He slowly raised his right hand and extended his index finger.

"I have nothing to help Master, that's all."
