Chapter 482: True Physics Engine

Chen Guan saw the recovery and froze for a moment—can he catch up?

After all, they had completely left the wilderness.

In the wilderness, an assassin without limits—Chen Guan, also an assassin, knew exactly how hard it was to catch one.

But… if this person is Brother Sheng, maybe he could actually pull off a miracle.

…

Following the direction Shenshiaorengfeng had just fled, Su Sheng pursued him all the way.

A stealthy assassin is indeed hard to catch in the wild.

If it took any longer, even Su Sheng wouldn't be able to do anything, but right now Shenshiaorengfeng has just escaped, so he's definitely still nearby.

Even if he runs… don't forget that stealth still slows him down, so he can't run far—he's an assassin, not a Windchaser Thief.

If he didn't go into stealth, he'd be spotted right away.

For a regular assassin, stealth cuts speed by fifty percent; the same applies to assassins.

For a Windchaser Thief, stealth only reduces speed by twenty-five percent, and in the late game the Windchaser Thief branch can completely negate the stealth slowdown… but that requires Third Rebirth.

Stealth has no cooldown.

But… you must exit combat state; combat state only grants temporary Strong Hide.

So, just now Shenshiaorengfeng first ran out of the Detection Arrow's range, then used Strong Hide to hide.

Only after leaving combat state did he use stealth to escape.

Su Sheng dealt with Lioumangmiaorenfeng, and it didn't take much time.

So…

Shenshiaorengfeng definitely can't run far!

After walking a distance, Su Sheng raised his eyebrows.

None?

Not right…

Su Sheng suddenly thought of something and decisively turned back.

Along the way, Su Sheng observed more carefully.

Nearby, some passing players were curiously watching Su Sheng.

This is a meadow; there are no wild monsters around, just a few scattered shrubs and otherwise empty.

Not far away is the wall of Baihu Main City; if any wandering monster approaches, the city guards on the wall will attack directly.

The city guards of the Main City are all NPCs level 70 or above; the wild monsters that can wander here are at most level 40–45, and they'd be killed almost instantly.

Hoo~

Just then, a breeze blew by.

Huh? Su Sheng raised his eyebrows!

He pulled the reins, lunged to the side, and swept with his spear!

Swish~

None?

No!

He turned his spear and swept again toward the other side.

…

"Ah? What are Mo Wen and Qian Chen doing?"

"Hitting the air?"

"I don't know."

"..."

Some nearby players noticed Su Sheng's actions and were puzzled.

But…

Just then.

Ding~

With Su Sheng's second sweep of the spear…

On the edge of the barren thicket, a spark suddenly appeared.

Su Sheng's spear was directly blocked.

Parry!

A figure instantly appeared.

It was none other than Shenshiaorengfeng!

Swish~

Shenshiaorengfeng turned and ran!

Made!

He's really abnormal, he could even drag me out like this.

"Holy shit, is he cheating?"

"Did anyone spot Shenshiaorengfeng's position?"

"Nobody noticed."

"..."

The players who were originally puzzled by Su Sheng's actions were left gaping in disbelief.

I have to admit, Shenshiaorengfeng still has a bit of cleverness.

Because Su Sheng dealt with Lioumangmiaorenfeng far too quickly.

When Shenshiaorengfeng received Lioumangmiaorenfeng's Private Chat, he knew Mo Wen Qianchen had already taken care of his brother.

Although it's still uncertain whether Mo Wen Qianchen will actually come after them.

But to deal with the two brothers, not only was it discovered that they reside in Baihu Main City, the entire Yanhuang region was also mobilized to block Baihu Main City.

So… most likely Mo Wen Qianchen will chase after them.

Since that's the case…

Having only fled this short distance, I definitely can't evade Mo Wen Qianchen's pursuit.

After all, in non‑Combat State, riding makes the speed too fast.

Therefore… Shenshiaorengfeng stayed in Stealth and hid in an open spot.

Normally, even when hiding, one would hide in corners or such places.

But Shenshiaorengfeng went the opposite way, focusing on the element of surprise.

Not to mention…

If it weren't for that gust of wind, Su Sheng truly wouldn't have noticed Shenshiaorengfeng…

A shrub was blown, but the swing amplitude at a certain spot was off, as if an invisible wall had briefly blocked the front.

And Shenshiaorengfeng, likewise, spotted the issue instantly and shifted to the side.

Thus… Su Sheng's first strike missed.

The second strike… Shenshiaorengfeng was forced to meet it.

A virtual‑real game, truly real… with an almost completely realistic physics engine.

Watching Shenshiaorengfeng flee, Su Sheng grinned.

Now then, let's see how you run.

Su Sheng immediately activated a Charge and chased after.

Both Charge skills are now off cooldown.

Strong Invisibility!

Swish~

Using the same tactic as Lioumangmiaorenfeng, he directly used Invisibility to interrupt Su Sheng's Charge.

But this time, Shenshiaorengfeng's Strong Invisibility wasn't revealed by a Detection Arrow.

However… the problem isn't big.

Although invisible, he kept moving, so Shenshiaorengfeng couldn't conceal himself.

Moreover… Invisibility also slows him down.

Su Sheng, thus, leisurely rode behind in pursuit.

Although the assassin leans toward strength and is a bit slower than the wind‑chasing thief, he is still an agile class, and even Su Sheng on horseback can't catch up in combat.

But…

Stealth makes it easy to catch up.

Obviously, Shenshiaorengfeng also knows this.

Before Strong Invisibility's duration ended, he simply ended Invisibility and bolted forward.

"Hehe!"

Su Sheng grinned!

Time to work, Xiao Jia Huo.

Su Sheng reached out and patted the little one on his head.

Xiao Jia Huo lazily lifted a paw.

Smoke Swirl!

Entangle! Five‑second Stasis!

Swish~

The white mist directly imprisoned Shenshiaorengfeng.

Su Sheng spurred his mount and approached.

However, at that moment.

Swish~

A ghostly light flashed on Shenshiaorengfeng, and he instantly broke free of the mist's entanglement.

"Hm?" Su Sheng raised an eyebrow, "Interesting!"

He actually broke the control.

Can…

Awakening Lion Charge!

Swish~

Second-stage Charge!

Su Sheng looked around interestingly at Shenshiaorengfeng, this time, how will you hide.

If…

Before Su Sheng kills Lioumangmiaorenfeng, Shenshiaorengfeng would probably act the same as Lioumangmiaorenfeng.

After all, the two brothers' skills are comparable, and as top masters, they are both extremely confident in their techniques.

But the fate of Lioumangmiaorenfeng brutally told them that Su Sheng's skill prediction was far superior to theirs.

Swish~

Suddenly, Shenshiaorengfeng darted a short distance forward.

Flash Step!

Su Sheng's eyes narrowed—the assassin's hidden skill!

A short rush!

His luck is this good?

Flash Step isn't easy to use.

Anyway, the Ten Court Yanluo assassin profession currently lacks...

Hidden skills come in two types.

One is basic, the other is exclusive.

For example, Leap Attack is basic; although it's a hidden skill, assassins, killers, and thieves can all use it.

Green Snake Toxin, Flash Step—these are exclusive; only assassins can use them, wind-chasing thieves cannot.

The drop rate of hidden skills is already low, and the drop rate of exclusive hidden skills is even lower.
