Monarch of Evernight: 245 War of Attrition
bsp;The body of this giant python was completely drained of blood, which meant that Qianye had been replenished. However, supplementation always takes time to digest, and Qianye cannot go far. Thinking of this, the murderous intent of the witch calmed down a little.
She thought for a moment, then her figure flashed and appeared in another place. Then she began to meditate and search her own area to determine where Qianye was.
In just a moment, Qianye was found again. To her surprise, this time Qianye did not rush to use Void Flash to escape, but ran wildly in the forest.
The witch was a little surprised, then she sneered and chased after him. In her opinion, Qianye was simply seeking his own death. Among the four major races of Yongye, except for the spider demons, all other races are naturally very fast. There is no special skill bonus and the witch simply doesn't feel like she will be left behind if she fights with speed alone.
So Qianye doesn’t have enough Force power? Or are you setting a trap?
The witch did not rush to catch up. Instead, she stayed close and kept attacking from a distance with her devilish energy.
Qianye's hands burned with crimson-gold flames of the Force, cutting off the black magic belt that was constantly entangled around him like a knife or an axe. Every time a piece of the magic band is broken, it will burst into flames and burn up in an instant. Qianye seems to have a safety line in his heart, keeping a certain distance from the witch. As long as there is a sign of getting closer, he will use various body skills and even make full use of the terrain
This is actually falling into a war of attrition. The force and demonic energy of both sides are consumed at the same rate, but the witch still has to maintain a vast territory, and the amount of demonic energy consumed is far higher than Qianye.
But the witch is not alone, she is surrounded by a group of powerful Eternal Night warriors. If Qianye made the wrong move and was surrounded, he might not be as lucky as before and be able to break through without any damage.
Just like this, they were chasing and escaping. Before long, Qianye and the Witch had made two big circles around the Well of Stars. At this moment, they had already left all the powerful Eternal Night warriors behind, and even Anwen could not keep up. Since Qianye no longer used Void Flash, the witch intentionally or unintentionally left no ink traces to show the way.
At this moment, the witch was aware of Qianye's intentions. He didn't want to stay away from the Well of Stars, probably because he didn't want to watch the powerful Eternal Night men get their source blood. As for Yong Ye, the best thing to do is for her to continue to hunt Qianye, and then let Edward, Basil and others go to the Well of Stars to obtain the source blood, so that Qianye will be in a dilemma.
If you don't care, the war of attrition here will be meaningless. If you don't care, you will be in danger of falling into a trap.
But for some reason, she did not notify Anwen to do so, and still pursued Qianye wholeheartedly.
Up to now, the two of them had been chasing and escaping for more than an hour. After the witch saw Qianye's intention of stalling for time, she stopped attacking from behind and instead attacked and intercepted him personally. The two sometimes bombarded each other from a distance, and sometimes fought in close quarters.
Qianye discovered that the witch had changed her strategy and wanted to force him to fight head-on. She finally stopped circling around the Well of Stars and began to run away with all her strength, drilling wherever there was an opening. Every place in the forest becomes his leverage point, and the direction and speed change all the time, making it impossible to predict.
Qianye moves as fast as lightning and as mysteriously as a ghost, almost maximizing his advantages in combat skills, body and perception. If the witch makes a mistake in judgment, Qianye will escape dozens of meters away. This was enough distance to activate Void Flash, how could she be willing to do so? He used all his body skills to move to Qianye's side to intercept him.
At this point, we can see the difference between the two. The witch moves in her own domain, using a method similar to that of crossing the void. She will become insignificant and almost weightless, so she moves faster than imagined, and she can reach distances of tens of meters in a flash.
In terms of short-distance movement speed, the Witch can almost equal Void Blink. Void flickering is the ultimate secret method to truly travel through space, and the witch actually moves honestly within space. In this way, the speed of the two is almost the same, which shows the terror of the witch.
However, the witch's movement method is too high-end. It relies entirely on the movement of the demonic energy in the field, and lacks flexibility in changing directions. In contrast, what Qianye Kexia used was a clumsy method that relied on physical strength similar to that of ferocious beasts. How fast the speed was and how violently the direction was changed all depended on the force exerted by the step.
In the Maelstrom Forest, Qianye's method is obviously more suitable. The vegetation, trees, and rocks here are extremely hard. No matter how hard Qianye steps on them, he will always step on slightly thicker branches, which means that he can borrow a lot of strength. On the other hand, the witch has to be careful. She cannot move quickly like she did on the outside continent, where she can simply break the big tree blocking the road in the middle.
Here, she might be able to break a huge ancient tree with her full force, but she might also be shaken to the point of being dizzy. Moreover, the sound of leveling a forest lasted for a long time, and the impact was no less than that of a force gun strike. Now every time she pulls and moves, the distance is quite close, far from reaching the level where she can exert her ultimate speed.
If it weren't for the forest, the witch would have stopped Qianye long ago. But what if?
She seemed to be able to get the real fire, she simply gave up on sensing the whereabouts of Anwen and others, and concentrated on chasing down Qianye. The witch saw that Qianye had had several opportunities to use Void Flash but to no avail, so she must have been unable to activate this secret technique. Now is a good time to kill him.
Qianye moves like the wind, often escaping the witch's killing moves at the last moment, and the situation becomes increasingly difficult. But there was no panic in his heart, no apparent embarrassment. He is paying attention to the Black Book, waiting for the essence and blood stored in it to be condensed and transformed.
At present, most of the essence and blood has been condensed. In a few minutes, all the essence and blood will be condensed. The original essence and blood obtained from the giant python will be purified to the point where it can be directly burned by the blood core.
The Maelstrom is indeed a magical place. Outside the maelstrom, the Black Book simply functions as a storage and does not condense blood essence. Or it may indeed have been condensed, but the degree of purification is so minimal that it can be ignored. In the maelstrom, not only the purity of the condensed blood essence is greatly improved, but the speed of condensation and transformation is also extremely fast. It may take a whole day outside the maelstrom, but it can be completed in just over an hour here.
So, due to the existence of the Black Book, the witch's judgment on Qianye's force status is completely wrong.
While Qianye was paying attention to the time it took for the Black Book to transform essence and blood, he carefully calculated the consumption of force and blood. He now tries his best to control the loss of blood and use the Force to assist his body's own power in action and fighting. As a result, he actually failed to exert his full strength and was gradually put at a disadvantage in the battle, but he could still barely hold on.
Seeing that it was about to reach the end of the battle, a stream of light flashed on the cover of the Black Book, and the condensation and transformation of blood essence was finally completed!
Qianye let out a long roar, and the morning light suddenly erupted. A circle of Force flames centered on him and swept around, instantly igniting hundreds of large and small fireballs. These are all the demonic auras set by the witch tomorrow or evening, and they are swept away by the force of dawn at this moment.
Before the witch could lay down new demonic energy, Qianye stepped heavily on an ancient tree, causing its trunk to bend deeply when several people hugged it. Such force made him shoot out like an arrow, instantly shortening the distance between him and the witch.
The witch just sneered, Qianye's willingness to consume the force was playing into her heart. In her calculations, Qianye no longer has the ability to continuously flash in the void. When the force is exhausted, he will be captured.
She danced her hands, and instantly several black magic lines appeared in front of Qianye in the distance, intersecting and intercepting them. At the same time, her body became insubstantial and turned into a stream of light, chasing Qianye at full speed. The distance of a hundred meters was just a matter of a thought to her.
However, right in front of her, Qianye's figure suddenly began to flicker.
The witch felt something bad in her heart, and she no longer cared about the consumption of magic power. She waved her hand and shook out dozens of magic threads, entangling Qianye from all directions.
But Qianye's figure became distorted and blurred as it flickered, and then disappeared. All the magic threads were tangled up and became a mess.
A murderous aura suddenly arose from the witch's body. She looked around and suddenly saw Qianye appearing a thousand meters away, and immediately rushed over. At this moment, her murderous intent was fierce. It was because she was teased by Qianye and made a mistake in judgment. But she was only angry, but not panicked. If Qianye only had three or two flashes of void power left, he still couldn't escape her grasp.
The witch had only flown halfway when Qianye disappeared. She searched with all her strength, and a little later, she finally caught another trace of Dao Qianye thousands of meters away. But when she discovered Qianye, his figure had already become vague, and the third void flash had already started.
The witch turned into a stream of light and drew a large arc in the air before turning smoothly. However, this time, she could not find Qianye's whereabouts. Apparently he had flickered away through the void.
She had to stop, her cold eyes swept across the vast forest sea, but there was no figure of Qianye anywhere.
At this moment, the perception in the field is as usual, and all kinds of birds and animals, large and small, are moving around in chaos. With the two of them fighting like this, Lin Haizhong was already in a state of panic. In the chaos, how can one tell Qianye's whereabouts?
There were a lot of reactions to the blood energy, and they all basically gathered together. You knew they were Edward's men without asking.
"A bunch of trash!" the witch couldn't help but curse. Until now, these strong vampires have not noticed that they are covered by her domain, and they are walking around in ignorance, with their whereabouts completely under the control of the witch. In the eyes of the witch, they are indeed trash. I just don't know if she is criticizing these vampires with her words.
At this moment, a new feeling suddenly appeared in her field, and the force of dawn appeared in a certain direction. Although this force is mixed and impure, it is still the force of dawn.
The witch was in the middle of the fire at the moment. In a flash, she appeared near the force of dawn. Without looking, she waved her hand and slashed down with several invisible magic blades. With her perceived Force cultivation, she could cut the man into several pieces at this moment.
