Chapter 44 A Major Battle
Within the city of Elrovi—
Large numbers of soldiers rushed into the streets, quickly sealing off the entire area. They arrested anyone they saw, preferring to arrest the innocent rather than let anyone escape.
Thus, a bloody storm swept through the city. Led by Rorschach, all the soldiers rushed into the houses to search, and anyone who resisted was killed on the spot…
"Search everything!"
"The entire city is under lockdown! No one is allowed to leave during martial law!"
Clutching his neck, Luo Xia roared at the soldiers beside him. In his mind, even if it meant killing everyone in the city, he had to find that necklace…
The original witnesses were quickly arrested, and after being tortured, the soldiers confirmed that what they had said was true.
After dispersing their forces to search, nearly 50,000 soldiers quickly rushed into the suburbs to begin a large-scale search in the snowfields.
As the moss at the base of the city wall rustled from a puddle of hot urine, an elven player, oblivious to the situation, continued humming a little tune about catching shrimp.
The martial law notice on the city wall behind us, half blown away by the wind, was flapping against the brickwork. As the wind picked up, it drifted to the corner of the wall…
"Splash...splash..."
His cloak was instantly soaked with urine. He shook his dark green cloak with a sense of satisfaction, when suddenly he heard the clanging of metal armor coming from all directions.
At that moment, on the watchtower above his head, a sergeant who had just been kicked in the backside by his commander was yelling through a brass megaphone: "People over there in the southeast corner! Suspect! Suspect! Judging from the look of it, they're setting up a barrier, come quick!"
In fact, when the first arrow grazed his hair and embedded itself in the city wall, he was still pulling up his trousers and adjusting the trajectory.
The second arrow pierced the hem of the cloak and then grazed past his waist.
He decisively abandoned the act of pulling up his pants, and summoned a magic circle with both hands, ready to fight at any moment.
But as they could see the billowing smoke, at least three squares of heavily armored infantry were closing in on them in a dumpling-like formation.
"Who would set up a protective barrier just by taking a piss?" He tucked his pointed ears into his hood as he ran, spitting out a mouthful of saliva as he did so.
He had never been so grateful for the elves' agility in his life; his feet even left afterimages as he moved.
"Nine Heavens Thunder Kick with Both Feet..."
He leaped onto the roof of a house on the wooden shaft of a grain cart, then casually unleashed two spells, destroying the buildings on the surrounding rooftops.
The sergeant on the city wall was jumping up and down, holding a monocular telescope: "The suspect has run up to the roof! Where are the magic units?! We can't let him get away!"
At the sergeant's shout, all the guards in the area were alarmed, completely abandoning their questioning of passersby and chasing after him like madmen.
So much so that they didn't even notice anything strange as they brushed past a boy with short, light blue hair.
The boy gripped the purple necklace tightly, then slowly retreated into the ruins in the corner, giving the elf player a grateful look.
"Damn it! Are you crazy? I just peed, why does it feel like I dug up their ancestral graves?!"
Leaping and bounding across the rooftops, the player was on the verge of tears as countless ice spikes, fireballs, and lightning bolts rained down on him.
...
"This streamer is awesome! He's doing parkour first thing in the morning!"
"Everyone stand up! This is a true parkour enthusiast! I declare our anchor, Erdes, the new King of Parkour!"
"30,000 people, a full 30,000 people were chasing him, and he still managed to escape
