Ocean City, Living Area.
It was evening prayer time, and about half of the residents went to the church district to attend evening prayers, so there were not many pedestrians on the street.
A fair man wearing a black trench coat, with black curly hair parted in the middle and with a poetic temperament, walked forward in a hurry.
He accidentally bumped into a middle-aged man passing by.
The fair-skinned man didn't say anything and walked straight forward without even looking back.
The middle-aged man who was hit grunted, turned his head, and looked at this hurried and disrespectful weirdo with doubtful eyes.
"Today's young people are really rude..." The middle-aged man shook his head, turned around and continued walking, when suddenly several flying insects passed by his face.
The wind from flapping wings caught the middle-aged man's nose.
Ah sneeze!
He sneezed suddenly: "Ah, there are more and more pests...
"You have to report it to the Agricultural Management Office..."
The middle-aged man quickly forgot everything that had just happened and continued walking forward.
After the stagger, the fair man's pace became faster and faster. He didn't dare to look back or stop now - "Magician" Wright shed a few drops of sweat on his forehead: "I didn't expect to meet 'Bronze Insect Master' Ashur on the street...
"Didn't Alicia say that she had already found a way to attract most of the enemies to the 'Church District'?
"Why is Ashur on the street?!"
After meeting Ashur by chance, Wright used his nimble steps and several unnoticed magic transfers to instantly distance himself from the Bronze Insect Master. Although he was an outsider, because he was conducting espionage Unlike other team members whose identities are secretive, he has attracted the attention of the Ocean City Sheriff's Department and Daedalus.
Like Alicia, Wright has become a wanted criminal in this deep-sea city.
Therefore, Wright had no other choice. After meeting Ashur by chance, he could only hope that the other party would not notice and he could sneak away.
However, although he kept praying like this in his heart, Wright knew that this was just a wishful thinking——
Assur is the one with the sharpest sense among the "three strong" under Rabbi Lins.
At this moment, Wright could already hear that the precise flying insects released by Ashur out of suspicion were following closely behind him.
what to do? what do I do?
Wright maintained the fastest pace possible for an ordinary person in daily life, trying to keep his mood calm so that his heartbeat would not reveal his panic and be heard by the sophisticated flying insects behind him.
"My strength is only Queen level..." Wright blinked, the cold sweat on his forehead falling down as his eyelids blinked, "Ashur is undoubtedly Ace level.
"How can I escape his pursuit and meet Alicia at the dive port in the industrial area at the appointed time?"
It is impossible to escape with all your strength. The Ace class's displacement ability completely crushes the Queen class.
The magician thought and formulated various plans.
However, in the face of the overwhelming strength of the Bronze Worm Master, he rejected all these plans one by one.
If you continue walking forward, you will reach an agricultural area that is deserted at night...
Although he knew that if Ashur wanted to take action, the best choice would be in a deserted place... But Wright could not stop.
Gradually, Wright found that he had only one path.
"I will most likely die." Magic's initially melancholy eyes gradually turned cold, "However, if I resist, I can divert my attention again and buy time for Alicia and the others...
"I absolutely cannot sit still and wait for death!"
Thinking of this, Wright had already walked into the glass corridor leading to the agricultural area.
In the glass corridor, he started to jog.
This is something that normal residents would never do. Ashur, who was tracking the suspicious man through the brass ladybug, knew at this moment that the man was definitely not a civilian...
In the distance, a tall man wearing a black robe with a maze badge on his body suddenly shook his black robe.
While he was running, a pair of thin and huge insect wings extended from behind him.
The two pairs of insect wings, which were like giant dragonfly wings, vibrated suddenly as Ashur ran, making a sound like the chorus of summer insects.
Like a gust of black wind, the Bronze Insect Master chased towards the agricultural area.
In just ten seconds, it had already swallowed up the distance that the magician had worked so hard to open, and rushed into the glass tunnel under the surprised eyes of several passers-by.
The brass mask reflects the passing light. Ashur had no idea of notifying others of reinforcements - it was just a small insect, not worth disturbing the overall arrangement.
What's more, it is during this critical and sensitive period.
He wanted to gain as much credit as possible in the process of capturing Alicia and her gang, and ensure that he could demonstrate his abilities.
Ashur has already galloped into the agricultural area. At this time, lights simulating sunlight illuminated the farmland. The granary in the distance looks like a regular mountain peak.
The agricultural area at night is deserted, with only a few lights and figures in the "sewage city area" not far away - a low-end living area for "marginalized people" that Ocean City officials have temporarily defaulted to.
The cold moon in the sky is ticking forward, and this place seems quiet and strange.
Ashur concentrated, and the precise flying insects connected to his senses allowed him to hear the movements of three escaping targets in front of him.
"A function with the ability to clone?" The copper insect master's metal mask showed no expression, "It is indeed that magician..."
"Want to mislead me in this way?"
Assur hit the ground hard with his copper staff and inserted it into the soft soil.
Brass hands twisted the rotating mechanism in the middle of the copper staff.
Countless hexagonal holes suddenly opened on the top of the copper staff.
Countless brass-colored wasps flew out of the "bee hive"...
The ladybugs that spread throughout the city can convey sounds from everywhere to Ashur's ears.
However, their flight speed is not fast and they are not suitable for close tracking.
And these more ferocious copper bees are weapons for close pursuit.
Reflecting the lights in the farmland, the copper bees were like shining mist, quickly dispersing in the direction of Wright's escape.
Unlike Ladybug, Ashur has crystal compound eyes installed in the Bronze Wasp - allowing him to detect from a certain distance with the help of the wasp's perspective.
Through the Bronze Bee's compound eyes, Ashur saw three identical figures running away in different directions...
Compared to the magician's escape speed, the copper bee's flying speed is much faster.
In a very short period of time, the Bronze Bees, divided into three groups, had chased behind the three figures.
Assur listened quietly...
The two figures on the left and in the middle, through the senses of the Bronze Bee, Ashur cannot hear the sound of the heartbeat...
"The one on the far right is the real body..."
Queen-level tricks, in the eyes of the copper insect master, are redundant and childish.
The Bronze Insect Master vibrated the membrane wings behind him and chased after him.
Of course, he would not be foolish enough not to rule out intentionally misleading options.
While approaching the currently confirmed true form, he gave instructions to the swarm - use the copper thorns in their bodies to attack the other two fleeing figures.
In this way, it can be ensured that the other party cannot deliberately mislead through heartbeats.
The shining mist gathered behind the two magicians, speeding up instantly. You could almost hear the sound of copper thorns popping out of their bodies, and the unsheathing sound of the hair-raising blades.
The copper bees changed their forms, using the copper thorns as their heads, and chased after them with a vibration frequency that almost destroyed the membrane wings.
After the Bronze Bees took aim, the gunpowder in their heads was ignited!
A series of explosions, puffs of smoke...
The copper bees shot towards the magician like bullets!
Puff puff puff puff puff! The sound of a volley of bullets piercing clothing.
After suffering a fatal attack, the two clones immediately turned into two pieces of black cloth riddled with holes and fell to the ground...
The only remaining Wright turned back in horror and looked at the Bronze Insect Master coming from behind.
