Damn Necromancer (58)
Cheonnajimang (2)
“This is it. “You’re hitting a goal.”
Murim lord Yang Jeong-hak.
He narrowed his eyes and looked at the floor.
Not long after starting the chase, his subordinates began calling him.
The reason was simple.
It was because of the footprints visible on the floor now.
A pile of footprints spread out into dozens of directions. Even the size of the footprints and the weight on the ground were almost similar.
Thanks to this, it was difficult even for him to distinguish what was real.
If you’re going to hide a tree, hide it in the forest.
It was an action that fit perfectly with that maxim.
at that time.
Ouyang Chen scratched his head as if he was annoyed.
“… … Have you adjusted the weight this precisely? This bastard didn’t just jump out on impulse. “You made the plan right.”
“… … right. The bigger problem there is… … .”
“They say they completely mixed up their footprints with the dead man’s. “It became very annoying.”
Yang Jeong-hak nodded.
The group was divided into groups of fifty and spread out in all directions. And that too in the form of continuing to step on the footsteps that came before. In this case, even if they were themselves, it would have been impossible to trace them.
Because there were messy footprints in all directions.
‘I can’t tell the difference.’
It means that they were trained really thoroughly.
Yang Jeong-hak tilted his head.
“… … “Is it possible to educate the dead so elaborately?”
“That guy over there, Master of the Apostles, would know.”
“… … .”
Baek Hak-seong was the same, looking at the ground with a stern expression.
Soon he said:
“It is possible to provide this type of education. but… … For that to happen, the level of the dead must be high. “It should be at the level of Jiangshi.”
“So, Bai Xiaotian’s level is that high?”
“no. Although it was a type of dead person I had never seen before, the energy I felt was not that great. Usually, such low-level dead people cannot be educated.”
“But you did it. What happened?”
“… … I do not know either.”
“Damn it. “If this happens, we have no choice but to divide the group.”
The other two people nodded at Ouyang Chen’s words.
“Are you going to search all directions?”
“… … There are certainly directions they may not have taken, but we don’t know their escape direction. “Not even a single possibility can be downplayed.”
The two people nodded at Baek Hak-seong’s words. He is a cunning bastard.
Rather, it was either caught off guard and moved in a direction that it should not have taken, or, although it is a very low possibility, there was a possibility that it did not move from this place at all.
The key to ascension is at stake.
Not even a small risk could be downplayed.
Yang Jeong-hak said, rubbing his chin.
“Then let’s divide it into seven hundred. Search everything. “One group must include at least two elder-level people.”
There was no opposition to this proposal.
I heard information about the Yongbong branch from Cho Won-hwi, who took third place.
A subject that requires killing everyone until three people remain.
The best young people in Moorim participated. There was not a single person who was in trouble.
Everyone had the skills and status that everyone was talking about.
But the strong players who took first and second place ran away.
It is even known that the number one person can cause thousands of deaths.
If you sent it out with only one group of people, there was a high possibility that it would be eaten by the station before you could even take the time.
It would take at least two elder-level people to take the time.
Fortunately, all three groups that had conquered the world’s martial arts world had gathered together.
The arrangement wasn’t that difficult.
only.
The only question is whether to mix the personnel together and where to assign the direction of the search.
“The Demonic Cult is in charge of this place.”
After looking at the map, Ouyang Chen pointed to the front and spoke.
Their faces crumpled at those words.
“Hehe, drink the damn thing.”
“Do you think we, the Apostolic Alliance, are assholes?”
If the two kites had taken a direction of escape, it was highly likely that they would have headed straight ahead. This was because the direction could be changed at any time there.
On the other hand, in the outer direction, there were somewhat limited places to move when fleeing and being surrounded.
“Then what should we do?”
Ouyang Chen asked with his face scrunched up.
Yang Jeong-hak gave the answer.
“Let’s start from the end here and mix it up. In that order, the Apostolic Alliance, the Murim Alliance, and the Demonic Cult. Four, mu, ma, four, mu, ma. “I think it will work like this.”
“Are we going to send them out in small groups like that? Wouldn’t it be nice if we didn’t feed each other let alone communicate?”

“But if you send it in one direction like you said, those in charge of directions other than the front will be dissatisfied. “Isn’t that right?”
“Hmm.”
Ouyang Chen cleared his throat. It certainly made sense.
“It would be difficult to catch them both in one group. If you find it, you will need support from those around you. “If this happens, all three organizations will be able to chase them down.”
The two people nodded.
With this arrangement, when one group discovers the two, there are only two nearby organizations that can request support.
Even if you ask for help from your organization that is far away.
‘You’ll notice.’
If a group rushes towards a certain place, wouldn’t the people next to them notice and chase them?
First of all, it was the best arrangement in terms of equal opportunity. Of course, in terms of efficiency, the story is a little different… … .
Efficiency is only considered when it seems impossible to achieve it.
‘There’s no way I can’t catch it.’
The three thoughts were the same.
There was no option of not catching it in the first place.
There will definitely be some distance to the escape point.
Is the escape point close in the first place?
‘Then you won’t run away like this.’
If it was close, it was normal to not waste time doing something like this and just run until your eyebrows furrowed.
Of course, he’s a cunning guy, so there’s a chance he’ll do something like this even if he’s close, but… … .
It was inevitable. How can one catch an escape when it is so close in the first place? So I didn’t think about that case.
‘I will definitely get caught.’
A tracking force of nearly 30,000.
In any case, there were saints wherever they went.
Of course, it has been a long time since I sent Jeon Seo-gu to Seongdo. Block traffic for several days and not allow anyone to pass.
Both the back and the front were blocked.
Although it may take a little more time, the hunt will be successful.
“Now that we have agreed on our opinions, let’s go. “One o’clock is urgent.”
“good night.”
The three people nodded.
That’s how a tracking team was formed.
* * *
There is a limit to human physical strength.
This was the same even for excellent awakeners. During the day, he climbed several mountains in succession and his breath rose to his chin.
I looked at Seo Ye-rim.
There was a hint of fatigue.
Although my abilities were higher than here, that didn’t mean I didn’t feel tired.
‘I need to rest for a while.’
I ran all day.
The skeletons of the fifty people who followed were also spread out in all directions, which must have caused confusion in the chase.
It would have bought some time.
I looked around.
There happened to be a suitable cave.
“Huh. “Let’s rest there for a while.”
So he went into the cave with her and sat down. I chewed on an energy bar and looked at the map that came to mind.
[Progress distance: 20%]
[Remaining Distance: 80%]
‘Now we’re about 1/5th of the way there.’
In other words, you have to run four more times at this speed to reach your destination. Looking at the map, some roads even had to pass through Chengdu.
Even the saints there are areas under the influence of the Murim Alliance.
I couldn’t help but feel confused.
It was probably the same for Seo Ye-rim, as her face changed in a complex way.
“First of all, it seems like we succeeded to some extent in disrupting the tracking… … Are you going to go in a straight line at all?”
A route that goes up in a straight line.
Pass through the capital city.
Looking at the map, it seemed to be roughly the size of a city.
The advantage is that it can move the fastest.
The downside is… … .
‘Probably all the wanted bounty badges have been distributed by now.’
Jeonseo-gu runs dozens of times faster than a person can run. Wildflowers would have already been scattered everywhere.
If you go straight ahead, it would be wrong to pass quietly.
“I’m thinking about it. But, if we go back, we’ll catch up faster.”
Straight lines and turning around.
Of course, a straight line is much faster.
We even had to climb a mountain to get back.
The physical strength consumption is overwhelmingly large.
“I don’t think they discovered the direction we went in yet. “Then wouldn’t it be better to go back and hide yourself?”
“There is a problem. “Skeletons are released when they fall beyond a certain range.”
Of course, the scope was much wider than expected.
The problem was that every time I ran forward, the distance between the skull and this side was increasing rapidly.
‘… … ‘At best, half a day now?’
The summoning will be lifted gradually, starting from the farthest side.
“… … “No matter what we do, the direction of the search will eventually be narrowed.”
“I didn’t think I would be able to go all the way anyway. The skeletons there are slow. “It will catch up quickly.”
Of course, it is said that these skeletons have quite high abilities due to bone exchange, death rods, equipment effects, etc., but of course they were slower than the martial arts people who learned to walk after eating.
Wasn’t he even heavily armed and carrying a bag?
‘I gave a second order, but… … .’
As we went along, if we came across a place like a mountain or a cave, we gave orders to disperse one by one and hide.
The goal was to make it as annoying as possible.
the problem is.
‘In the end, it’s just a matter of buying time.’
conclusion.
In any case, the direction of the search is narrowed and there is no choice but to be tracked.
Seo Ye-rim’s face darkened.
“I ran all day and got 20%… … Then we need at least 4 more days… … “How long can we stall time with skeletons?”
“Probably the 30,000 troops were all divided. “In about a day at most, all of my summons will be dead.”
“day. “Then it’s 40%.”
“That’s because I rode the mountain path. If you can pass through the capital directly, you will be able to increase the progress by up to half. What if you ride a horse? “Maybe we can raise it further.”
“At least 50%… … .”
Seo Ye-rim’s eyes became hazy, as it seemed like a pretty sweet goal.
He said while taking a sip of water.
“the problem is… … “It means you can tell the direction, and because it’s flat, you can get there by means of transportation.”
You can’t go up the mountain path on horseback.
Of course, the martial artists also had to run bare-chested.
But is this the only one that is difficult?
no.
The other side that tracks you will also die from hardship.
But what if it’s flat?
There is nothing to worry about over there.
You can ride a horse or carriage.
You may even be able to switch to quick words very easily in between.
On the other hand, everything here is burdensome, from finding a horse to riding it along the road.
The bounty must have been extremely high, so the moment something seems suspicious, reports will come from all directions.
“To hide in a mountain valley… … Oh, that won’t work. The gate explodes… … .”
“yes. “If it explodes, we’ll all die.”
The gate explodes?
It means clear failure.
Then, all challengers inside die. Grade A is given 3 months to clear for the first time.
But it’s already been about a month?
There are only two months left.
Jonber?
can not do it.
“Even if it’s a structure that won’t kill you, holding on doesn’t mean much. “Do you think they’ll give up on the clue just because it’s been so many years?”
“… … “Probably not.”
“Anyway, we have a choice now.”
Seo Ye-rim nodded and said.
“Let me summarize. If you go around, you’ll be caught a little later, but in the end, you’ll be given a specific direction. “It’s slow there.”
“yes.”
“You can go fast if you go past the castle, but the chase team will stick to you like a pack of dogs. Is that right?”
“Should we add one more to that?”
“… … ?”
“Aren’t there other cities in every direction other than the one in front of you? Why is it there?”
“… … “You’ll be tracked from the front as well as from behind?”
“So that would be an A+ gate, right?”
“ha… … “It’s difficult.”
Minwoo Kim nodded.
Recommended capacity: 30 people.
The recommended number of people was not so high for no reason.
“Still, the level at the front won’t be that high. “The elites must have already been taken to the Yongbong branch.”
“… … “What do you want to do about that?”
“From my experience, in times like this, it’s right to keep running without looking back.”
“Are you trying to pierce the castle?”
“yes. “If you go around half-heartedly, you will be caught by the three old monsters and the ending will end in a body massacre.”
Seo Ye-rim trembled at those words.
“… … great. “Let’s go straight ahead.”
at that time.
– Kuu.
White flew into the cave.
Soon, it started poking at the ground with its beak.
The number is seven in total.
There was an X next to it.
Finally, it started scratching the ground with its claws.
Eight poles were drawn.
“Hey, my baby. It’s amazing, it’s amazing. “Dad will give you a snack.”
– Kuu!
A white cat that eats properties with its eyes rolled back. Soon he started giving me subtle glances as if asking if there was anything else.
“When we go out, Dad will buy you a bunch of snacks. Let’s be patient for now. Understand?”
– Kuu!
Hayang nods her head vigorously.
It was truly an extraordinary divine beast.
I looked at Seo Ye-rim.
“The chase team is about seven hundred. The distance is approximately 8 hours. Fortunately, the three old monsters are not included.”
“… … “Hayang told you this?”
“Our Shinsoo does it. like this. “Then, let’s get up.”
I stood up with Seo Ye-rim.
Before more tails were added.
Now was the only time to break through the Holy City.
