Infinite Sims

"Full speed ahead!"

In the dark canyon, Jiang Ren sat awkwardly on a centipede skull, and kept urging it to speed up.

At this time, he was no longer the free and easy way back half a month ago.

Most of the snow-white body, like a work of art, was stained with scorched black marks left by lightning strikes, and clear gaps and a large number of small cracks could be seen on many bones.

Even the fire of the soul has become like wax in the wind, constantly flickering.

And the instigator of all this is the undead who is chasing after him.

——Death Knight, Ortega.

Relying on the powerful pursuit ability brought to it by the bone horse of the third stage, it firmly bit the Centipede Skeleton, which is also in the third stage, and even carried out several times of attack and killing, forcefully chopping off nearly a quarter of its body behind it.

What's more, Jiang Ren's body is obviously injured at a glance.

However, even with this injury.

The main reason is that Ortega has not recovered from the injuries left by the beating, and cannot display his full strength. Otherwise, Jiang Ren is either dead or arrested.

"Still miscalculated."

While threatening it to speed up with the soul fragments of the Centipede Skeleton, Jiang Ren looked back at the approaching death knight.

Back to the abyss as early as half a month ago.

It only took him one day to escape to the territory of other lords.

The following time was spent in the competition with the abyssal creatures and the human world. Everything was supposed to be like this. There were twists and turns, but in the end, it was promoted to the fourth stage without any danger.

Surprisingly, it always appears when it shouldn't.

Just two days ago, Jiang Ren had just helped Ellie get a ticket to the final, and upon returning, he found Ortega nearby.

I don't know why the other party dared to break into other territories.

Anyway, it is here, and the target is him.

If it weren't for the rush these days, forcing an undead who had reached the third stage and was known for its speed to donate soul fire fragments, and was always on standby nearby.

That can't wait until now, he who is not good at speed, will directly fall there.

As for the original method of using Ellie as the anchor, she ran to the human world to save her life.

It's not that he doesn't want to implement it, but that he can't even communicate with Ellie, let alone go to the human world through a contract, under the lock of the powerhouse's aura that is one level higher.

boom!

Suddenly there was a loud noise behind him.

Jiang Ren had a premonition in his heart, and when he turned his head, he saw a black spot falling rapidly in the sky behind him.

The black spot was Ortega who had just left his horse and was holding two giant swords.

Huge body, precise control.

If there is no accident, he will definitely land beside Jiang Ren, and then cause fatal damage to him and the Centipede Skeleton.

"Duel by name."

Jiang Ren didn't panic at all, and used his strongest talent against the Centipede Skeleton under his seat.

Wow!

As the death knight's giant sword fell, dark blue flames burst out.

There is a terrifying magic power attached to it.

The speed and strength have been improved to a certain extent.

However, just as Ortega fell with precision and the giant sword was about to hit Jiang Ren, an invisible force emerged and guided the giant sword to slide to the ground aside.

Boom!

The giant sword hit the ground, breaking a hard stone into a pile of rubble, mixed with magic power and bursting and splashing around.

Because the distance is too close.

A part of the gravel directly hit the Centipede Skeleton, breaking off a dozen legs under it abruptly.

But even so, the Centipede Skeleton showed no sign of stopping.

With a centipede-like body and densely packed feet like phantoms, Jiang Ren quickly distanced himself from Ortega.

With a horse whistling.

The huge fiery horse came after him.

Ortega stood up from the ground calmly, jumped on the spot, and at the same time as he fell, the bone horse ran right under him, carrying him to continue the pursuit.

"If this continues, at most three more times, I won't be able to run anymore."

Jiang Ren glanced back and noticed that the Centipede's speed had weakened slightly.

The talent of named duel is really good.

It can be said to be the strongest weapon for singles, and it can also achieve the ability to avoid the attack of the strong by skillfully using some of its compulsory skills.

But talent is talent after all, and how much power it can exert depends largely on the user.

Facing death knights who are one level higher, the biggest effect of this talent is to forcibly distort the opponent's attack when it is just activated, but the effect is only one time.

Moreover, it cannot be reused in a short period of time.

This also gave Ortega a solution.

Pretend to attack the body, but actually aim at the surrounding stones, triggering a splashing range attack.

The injuries on Jiang Ren's body, the destroyed part of the body of the Centipede Skeleton, and dozens of broken feet under him are good proofs.

"Jiang, surrender to me and offer me your loyalty."

Ortega stared at Jiang Ren coldly, and a cold voice sounded in the canyon: "I will bestow you with supreme power and glory!"

Hearing this, Jiang Ren turned around and shouted, "Stop, I will surrender to you."

Just one rank higher than himself, dare to say something to bestow supreme power and glory, this shameless lying appearance is no less than a politician among human beings.

Ortega obviously also understood that Jiang Ren's words were not sincere, not only did not stop, but continued to shout: "Surrender to life, betrayal to death."

"If I really listen to you, I will die without knowing how to die."

Jiang Ren chuckled and ignored Ortega.

In the past two days, they have spoken no less than a hundred times, but no matter what they say, Ortega insists on him.

"According to the current situation, it won't be long before the Centipede Skull will be maimed."

"Once I lose its speed, I will be like a turtle in a urn, and I can only be slaughtered."

The more critical the moment, the calmer Jiang Ren was: "However, I am not helpless."

The reason why he keeps the centipede running away is not only to try to escape Ortega's pursuit, but also to delay time.

"Calculating the time, it should be almost the final of the trials."

Jiang Ren looked at the endless canyon in front of him, and the fire of his soul paused slightly.

Although he was locked by the strong Qi, he couldn't take the initiative to escape to the human world.

But as long as Ellie takes the initiative to call, he can break through the lock and restriction of the air mechanism by responding to the call.

Not long after.

Ortega leaped from his horse again, spanned a distance of several thousand meters, and fell rapidly from a height of hundreds of meters.

Even Jiang Ren used the feature of named duel again.

But this time the situation was much worse than before.

The crushed rocks and energy that exploded instantly destroyed nearly one-fifth of the centipede's legs, causing its speed to drop slightly.

"If you do it again, I'm afraid it will be abolished."

Jiang Ren turned his head and focused all his attention on Ortega who was getting closer.

Thinking about what kind of means should be used to delay the time as much as possible if he catches up with him later, or if the Centipede Skeleton loses the ability to escape.

——"Little Skull!"

Suddenly, Ellie's voice sounded in Jiang Ren's mind.

Feeling the pulling force coming from his mind, Jiang Ren immediately gave the Centipede Skeleton an order to escape on its own, and then responded to the call.

In the blink of an eye, he disappeared.

"Jiang!"

Ortega yelled, jumped from the bone horse, and soon landed on the centipede skeleton.

The thick giant sword with a large door panel slashed down fiercely.

In an instant, the middle part of the Centipede Skeleton was chopped into pieces, dividing it into two parts, the front and the back.

In Ortega's angry voice, the centipede skeleton didn't even have the qualifications to struggle, and soon turned into a pile of unsightly broken limbs.

Even the fire of the soul was directly shattered by the giant sword.

"Jiang!!!"

In the dark canyon with no end in sight, Ortega's angry roar was filled with the roar of the bone horse that sensed the owner's emotion.

Isle of Simm, Vent Arena.

The arena, which has a maximum capacity of only more than 1,000 people, is already overcrowded at this moment, almost 2,000 people have been crammed.

In addition to a few instructors from higher colleges, relevant instructors and leaders of various summoner academies on the island, as well as contestants and their family members these days, the audience was mostly people from the island who came to watch the excitement.

Seeing that there was still a while before the game, the voices in the auditorium became more and more lively.

"My daughter is about to play."

Ellie's father, who was burly, said to several friends who were also dwarves and accompanied him to watch the final.

There is a bit of pride in the tone, but it does not lack the kindness between communicating with others.

In the past six months, his daughter was determined to be a hopeless summoner.

The people in the village who had subsidized the tuition fees did not stand on the sidelines and gossip behind his back, and even comforted him secretly.

But the more this happened, the more he felt owed.

Of course, he will not vent this emotion on Ellie, after all, this kind of luck is something that no one can control.

But the mood is a little low, but it is inevitable.

Now, he can finally be happy.

I am happy for my daughter, and I am happy that the support of these friends has not been in vain.

Ellie's mother, who was sitting next to her, leaned gently on his thick arms.

She doesn't care whether her daughter can become a summoner, as long as her daughter can be happy from the bottom of her heart, then she will feel very pleased.

"If the person standing on stage today is me, how wonderful it would be."

Farek looked at the crowds of spectators with frenzied faces, and a burning feeling rose in his heart.

But when he turned his head and saw the empty arena, the enthusiasm was quickly extinguished.

Even when he was eliminated, he had already obtained a place for admission to a college of higher learning.

But there is a huge gap between the quota and the quota, as if they are both rich, the family lives in a two-story small building, and the family lives in a manor with a vast garden.

College, too.

The faculty, various resources and subsidies, and the relationship network after graduation are only slightly different than the previous ones.

And the institution of higher learning where he got the admission quota ranked seventh among the eight institutions of higher learning in the principality, only slightly better than the last one.

But the two sides of today's final.

No matter how the performance is, it will eventually be recruited by the top three institutions of higher learning.

"I'm coming!"

There was a burst of cheers all around.

Farek looked up and found that players from both sides of the competition were on the stage.

On one side is Jamil, the chief student of Sodomos, the best summoner academy on the island.

One of them was a classmate, whom I hadn't taken seriously since half a year ago—Ellie.

The former, he didn't pay much attention.

But the latter, this person who was not in his eyes before, suddenly became his unattainable goal...

Even though Farek's personality is cold and calm, under such a huge gap, negative emotions such as jealousy and resentment will inevitably arise.

And there are dozens of people in the same class as Ellie who have the same emotion as him.

Many people can't help but have a look of embarrassment on their faces when their parents say that they want to have a good relationship with Ellie.

Perhaps they once had this opportunity, but they did nothing, and even squeezed out without any benefit, and now they are obviously not qualified to make friends.

"After today, my Saint Phil Academy will become the number one Summoner Academy on the island."

Joseph smiled, thinking about how to reasonably increase tuition fees so as to reduce the rejection of new and old students.

The old man in gray robe was still sitting quietly in the corner as usual.

But what was different from before was that there were people sitting around him, and his gray robe was crumpled.

"Jamil, fifteen years old, son of Viscount Sorota, the permanent summoner is the undead system known as one of the strongest summoners for trainee summoners - 'Ghost Shooter'."

On the arena, Ellie quietly watched her opponent.

"Beautiful Miss Ellie, it is my honor to fight with you."

Jamil, who was wearing a sleek tuxedo, put one hand in front of him and the other behind him, and bowed to Ellie opposite with a smile on his face.

Ellie nodded, but didn't reply.

The experience of the past six months, in addition to making her more resilient, also made her feel a little more disgusted with these heavy and useless etiquettes.

She didn't want to do the etiquette if it wasn't necessary.

"start!"

The referee gave an order and jumped to the bottom of the arena.

Almost the moment the voice fell, a dark phantom appeared on the stage.

This is the special creature of the undead system - the shadow shooter.

Under Jamil's smiling gaze, the phantom opened its hands the moment it appeared.

A longbow appeared in the shadow archer's left hand, and a translucent shadow arrow resting on the string appeared in the right hand.

"Surprise attack tactics?"

Although Ellie was a little surprised by the old-fashioned tactics, she didn't panic, and immediately called Jiang Ren through the contract.

But soon, she found that something was wrong with Jiang Ren's situation, and he didn't show up at the first moment.

With a delay of less than half a second, the ghost shooter has already shot.

The arrow shoots out of the bowstring like a shooting star.

"That's too late."

Ellie gritted her teeth, knowing that she couldn't avoid the shadow arrow with her own speed, and in her mind, she summoned a skeleton soldier holding a shield to stand in front of her.

咜!咜!

With two soft bangs, the shadow arrow passed through the bone spur shield, and then through a thick breastbone of the skeleton soldier, and was about to hit Ellie's left shoulder.

at this time.

A figure appeared in front of her.

"Little skeleton."

Before Ellie had time to be surprised, she found that Jiang Ren's appearance was different from usual.

bang.

The shadow arrow landed on Jiang Ren, who was defenseless, and instantly knocked him out, flew back more than ten meters, and fell to the edge of the arena, almost falling.

until then.

Jiang Ren's appearance was exposed to everyone.

As if he had just experienced a big battle, his body was covered in scorched black marks, his body was full of cracks and potholes, and the fire of his soul seemed to be erratic.

All of this seems to indicate that his current situation is very bad.
