Hu Die Lan
Chapter 433 Knockback Effect
"Beacon Fire City, right? I know," Gu Fei said for him.
Huo Ranyi felt ashamed. How many times had he fought Gu Fei? Yet his tactics were already being seen through. Although there was nothing new, he still had to use it.
"Beacon Fire City, rise!" Huo Ranyi shouted. Since he had been exposed, he no longer whispered and mumbled, but shouted it out loud to increase the momentum.
As a result, when the chant was completed, the wall of fire rose, but it was already behind Gu Fei. Then he saw Gu Fei point his sword and say, "Wall of Electric Current!"
Huo Ranyi burst into tears. It turned out that everyone was unoriginal. Looking back, Hei Shui's retreat was just blocked by the Wall of Electric Current. He could only look back at Huo Ranyi with a haggard expression.
"Fight it!" Huo Ranyi roared and pounced on Gu Fei. He felt that Gu Fei, this mage, was really powerful and could not be defeated by conventional methods, so he had to use unconventional means. For a mage, the unconventional method was naturally to use hand-to-hand combat instead of magic, so Huo Ranyi rushed up at Gu Fei, waving his fists.
Huo Ranyi's ending was so miserable that even the author couldn't bear to describe it. Gu Fei was annoyed by this kind of wild, mad dog behavior. How could fists and feet be so unorganized? So Gu Fei stepped forward and, with a few punches and kicks, systematically beat Huo Ranyi into a pulp.
Poor Huo Ranyi initially waved his hands in an attempt to parry, but later could only block his chest with his arms, trying to protect his face.
It was truly a great pain to be beaten like this and not die. Gu Fei was annoyed after a while, so he casually pushed with his hand and hooked with his foot, knocking Huo Ranyi onto his back and ignoring him, turning to run towards Hei Shui. Gu Fei's Wall of Electric Current did not last as long as Huo Ranyi's Beacon Fire City, nor did it have such a short cooldown, so he had to hurry up and deal with Hei Shui.
But Hei Shui knew that he was no match, so he did not try to be a desperate hero. Huo Ranyi's miserable end was lying there!
Hei Shui used agile footwork, shuttling and positioning himself in the small space between Beacon Fire City and the Wall of Electric Current, insisting on not letting Gu Fei get close to him.
Gu Fei's speed was slightly inferior to Hei Shui's, and he seemed to be unable to do anything, so he could only patiently deal with him.
Hei Shui ran around, watching Gu Fei become exasperated but unable to do anything about it, and suddenly felt very happy. It seemed that this guy was not so terrible after all. If Jiaoshui was here, wouldn't he be able to kite him to death?
Hei Shui thought about it and became excited. He felt that he might have discovered a wonderful way to deal with Gu Fei. At this moment, the Wall of Electric Current flashed and disappeared. Hei Shui's mind moved. It was now possible to escape, but… Hei Shui glanced at Huo Ranyi on the ground. This guy was lying motionless on the ground like a dead man. When Hei Shui looked over, he slightly raised his head, glanced at Hei Shui, and winked in the direction of the wall of fire.
Let me run over there? Because Hei Shui was always preparing to escape after the Wall of Electric Current disappeared, he was trying to stay near the Wall of Electric Current during the running process. Now that the opportunity was in front of him, he realized that Huo Ranyi's wink was conveying this meaning to him. Hei Shui was a little puzzled, but soon he noticed that although Huo Ranyi was still lying on the ground, the staff in his hand had quietly pointed in a direction. In an instant, Hei Shui understood Huo Ranyi's intention and was overjoyed. He immediately ran towards the wall of fire.
Gu Fei chased after him as usual, unaware that Huo Ranyi behind him was lying on the ground and quietly completed the chant.
Beacon Fire City!
Another wall of fire rose behind Gu Fei, accompanied by Hei Shui's loud laughter. This was Huo Ranyi's idea. After luring Gu Fei over, he would use another Beacon Fire City to separate Gu Fei from himself, so that he would have plenty of time to leave. Although Gu Fei could teleport instantly, it was obvious that his skill was either on cooldown or his mana was insufficient. Otherwise, would he still need to run around with Hei Shui like this?
As for Hei Shui, although he was separated from Gu Fei, the first Beacon Fire City would soon disappear. Hei Shui could escape with his speed as long as he delayed for a while. Misty City was shrouded in fog, and it was much easier to escape than to chase. In this way, both of them could be safe and sound, which was naturally the best outcome.
"Kid, didn't expect this, did you?" Hei Shui laughed triumphantly as he ran towards the first Beacon Fire City. Huo Ranyi had already leisurely stood up from the ground and snapped his fingers smartly at Hei Shui, "Old Hei, that wall of fire will disappear in seven seconds, get ready, I'm leaving first!"
"Go ahead!" Hei Shui deliberately replied loudly, glancing back at Gu Fei provocatively.
Gu Fei was also looking at him, and with a smile on his face. This smile should not have appeared on the face of someone who was being played with. Hei Shui felt a little恍惚, and then he heard Gu Fei say, "You're about to die, and you're still so happy?"
"Die?" Hei Shui sneered, not taking it seriously. Everything had been calculated very clearly. Gu Fei would not be able to catch up with him before the wall of fire disappeared. Faced with such an obvious fact, this guy still wanted to bluff. It was really boring.
Hei Shui was silently counting down in his heart "seven six five four three two one." According to his estimation, the wall of fire would disappear two seconds after he reached it. Only two seconds, it would be easy to delay.
Hei Shui ran towards the wall of fire and glanced back. Gu Fei was also chasing after him.
"Keep your distance, don't panic, he can't catch up!" Hei Shui felt a little flustered again and quickly reminded himself. Then he saw Gu Fei stretch out his left hand, and a cluster of electric light gathered in his palm.
"What is this?" The thought just arose in Hei Shui's mind, and this cluster of electric light had already shot out. Hei Shui quickly turned around and swung his dagger to block it. It was true that a mage's magic could be destroyed by physical attacks. Even if it could not be completely destroyed, it could minimize some of the damage, which was better than taking it head-on.
The electric light flowed, and there seemed to be thunder rumbling faintly. Hei Shui accurately struck the ball of light with his knife. He immediately paid attention to his life. It had decreased, but not much. The defense was effective.
Hei Shui was very gratified, but then he realized that the moment the ball of light was split apart, it produced an extremely strong repulsive force. Hei Shui could not help but retreat involuntarily. It was indeed a retreat, not flying out. Hei Shui felt that his legs were still on the ground, but he was sliding backwards as if he was wearing roller skates.
"What's going on?" Hei Shui just muttered to himself, and suddenly remembered something. His face was pale. He looked back and saw that the flame wall of Beacon Fire City was already in front of him. Wouldn't retreating like this mean rushing straight into it?
"Damn it, stop for me!" Hei Shui roared, but no matter how hard he tried, the retreat did not diminish at all. In a panic, he glanced at Gu Fei, who had stopped chasing and was standing still. He was gently blowing on his palm, smiling and explaining to him, "Heart Thunder, has a knockback effect."
Hei Shui gave up. No one could compete with the system's settings. It was futile to try to stop at this time. Hei Shui didn't want to watch himself being pushed into the fire pit, so all he could do was close his eyes.
"Zero!"
The countdown that Hei Shui had silently counted in his heart had finally reached its end. He opened his eyes, the fog was still the same fog, but the street was no longer there. He had returned to the Thieves' Guild courtyard.
On the street, Hei Shui and Beacon Fire City disappeared together, disappearing without a trace. Gu Fei turned around and walked to the second wall of fire, looking at the other end.
Huo Ranyi, who was running away, stopped at this time. He suddenly turned his head and saw a dark figure standing behind the flickering flames.
"It's foggy over there, can you see clearly?" Gu Fei shouted at him.
Huo Ranyi didn't say anything.
"Your friend was not careful and rushed into your wall of fire," Gu Fei said.
Huo Ranyi still didn't say anything. He knew that Hei Shui couldn't have been careless. Gu Fei must have used some trick. He suddenly knew, because he suddenly received a system notification that his PK value had increased by 1. For a moment, he hoped that this 1 PK value was contributed by Gu Fei, but unfortunately, as soon as he turned his head, he heard Gu Fei's voice.
Huo Ranyi couldn't wait to tear Gu Fei into pieces, but he knew that the result of such impulsiveness would be to be knocked to the ground again. Gritting his teeth, Huo Ranyi turned and disappeared into the fog.
"Hehe, do you think you can run away like this? It's useless. As a VIP for wanted missions like me, I can immediately know your location." Gu Fei took out his wanted license, admired it for a moment, and hurried to the wanted mission office.
1 PK value would naturally take two hours to clear. Gu Fei believed that Huo Ranyi would not have the awareness to surrender and go to jail. Even if he wanted to wash off the PK, he couldn't reach the office before him. He was a full-Agility mage.
In the blink of an eye, Gu Fei had arrived at the wanted mission office. After showing the NPC his wanted license, he immediately began to look through the missions. Huo Ranyi had just gained PK not long ago, and the value was 1. Gu Fei directly turned to the last page and searched from the back to the front. If it was not there, it could only mean that these guys were not registered in Misty City.
The result was gratifying. When Gu Fei turned to the second-to-last page, he had already seen Huo Ranyi's name, a mage by profession. After confirming that it was correct, Gu Fei chose to accept it without hesitation.
"Coordinates xxx, xxx!" Gu Fei immediately announced in the mercenary channel.
"What is that?" everyone asked.
"Huo Ranyi's coordinates," Gu Fei replied.
"You met him? Just kill him, why send the coordinates?" everyone said.
"Jian Nan You is my ultimate goal. Huo Ranyi is now my informant," Gu Fei said.
"You converted him?" everyone thought it was incredible. Gu Fei was very good at physical damage, but did he also master mental hypnosis?
So Gu Fei gave them some popular science, introducing the wanted license and how he helped Huo Ranyi gain PK value.
"Jian Nan You is really dead this time," everyone sighed.
