Chapter 247 I Remember Your Smell
Char was shocked, his breathing became messy. The girl, who pretended to go easy on him, suddenly turned around, and a powerful leg swung over like a whip, bringing with it a strong wind pressure. Looking at this posture, even a slight hit would result in a fracture.
Without another word, he immediately activated "Shadow Phase". His body was like a pool of black shadows as he moved backward in a phase and hid in the bushes. Then, he turned around and ran.
Reality proved that Char\'s choice was incomparably correct. As he ran, the place where he was originally standing was pierced through by the black and green spikes that emerged from the ground.
Seeing the target escape, the girl chased after him relentlessly.
The girl\'s slender body was like a vigorous cheetah, closely following behind Char, and she was unable to shorten the distance between her and Char for some time.
The girl seemed to be unhappy with the result. The black patterns on her slender arms suddenly wriggled and fell off her body as if they were alive. As soon as they landed, they turned into two small black snakes that emitted a faint light. They chased after him at an even faster speed.
The black snakes flicked its forked tongue and immediately locked onto Char\'s position, closely chasing after him.
This was the skill of the special Barbarian profession, Beast Dancer—[Tracking]. As long as two snakes were targeting him, there was basically no way to escape. They would become faster and faster within ten minutes of landing. Unless he could run for ten minutes, once bitten, he would be marked and became the only target within a certain proximity. There was no way to hide and he would be exposed even in darkness.
However, the situation was a little different this time. The two snakes had just landed and chased for a few minutes when they suddenly started spinning around on the spot as if they were drunk. Then, they actually started wrestling with each other, biting each other relentlessly. In the end, they exploded into green smoke and dissipated.
"Eh?"
The Beast Dancer let out a cry of surprise, but she didn\'t panic much. With a hiss, she tore off a piece of animal skin from her body and rubbed her hands together. Smoke immediately curled up from the animal skin, forming a huge shadow behind her.
[Nether Hunter]
This thing could be molded like child\'s clay. Its huge body was inflated and it did not have a reproductive organ. Its entire body was black and covered with snake-shaped patterns emitting a faint yellow light. Its two strong arms slowly made a bow and arrow posture as the Beast Dancer continued running and it took aim at Char.
The arrowhead began to shine.
The hunter\'s shadow had been accumulating power for a long time. The rice-sized light on the bow expanded until it was the size of a basketball. At this moment, crackling lightning flashed. It was like a slingshot evolving into an RPG rocket!
Swoosh! The ball of light was shot at Char\'s back like a high speed comet.
Char knew that he couldn\'t dodge it, so he suddenly stood still and firmly stepped into the ground with his left foot. With his left leg as the axis, his body rotated 180 degrees. The moment he turned around, [Fire of Origin] drew an arc and fiercely whipped towards the arc light.
BANG!
The place where he stood was immediately enveloped by smoke. The airflow washed over him, and the cracks under his feet spread out in a radial manner, flattening the small grassland.
The Beast Dancer immediately rushed over. Four white bone spikes appeared in her hands. She interlocked her hands and threw them in four directions, firmly stabbing into the ground.
At the same time, a black-green thread bloomed from the white bone, connecting the other bone spikes left and right. In an instant, it formed a large net, dividing the smoke and dust, and also binding Char inside.
After everything was settled, Char was tied up like a dumpling.
He could still struggle, but it was meaningless to struggle at this point.
Previously, the reason why he managed to ditch the two Tracking\'s snakes was because he had guessed what skills she would use. Therefore, he had used the Canonical Warlock\'s [Agent] in advance to create a fake identity for himself. The moment the two snakes were born, he would automatically lock onto the fake identity. Then, he quickly broke it, causing problems for the two snakes.
This was a normal game between Beast Dancers and invaders. Logically speaking, the girl should not pursue him anymore. After all, he had already taken this opportunity to escape from the territory of the Black Mamba tribe. If they continued to pursue him, it would be equivalent to angering the elves. No one would do this, especially since she was a Beast Dancer who represented a small village and held the position of a Shaman Priest, which made her a rare calm mind among the Barbarians.
However, she actually tricked him with a set of fancy combo.
The most ironic thing was that Char taught her this set of combo himself!
As expected, the only person who could trick me was me.
Char silently cursed in his heart, and at the same time looked at the girl curiously.
There were only two things that could make her act abnormally.
Either that or she wanted to do something to him, or something had happened on the grassland.
What exactly was it?
…
The Beast Dancer came in front of Char and squatted down.
Then, she leaned over like a feline and sniffed carefully.
"I remember your scent."
Char\'s heart suddenly jumped.
"But I don\'t know you."
Char\'s heart relaxed.
Then, she found a stick and tied up Char\'s hands and feet like tying up a wild boar. With a light lift, she carried him on her back.
"You\'re my prize now. Don\'t go anywhere."
Char sighed and waited for the [Shadow Phase]\'s CD to end before escaping his captor.
She suddenly turned around and stared at him like a snake. Char quickly raised his hands, indicating that he had no ill intentions.
"It\'s fine if I\'m a captive, but there\'s no need to tie me up. I\'ll go back with you."
"Then you\'d better behave yourself."
She waved the bone dagger in her hand.
"No problem."
Char shrugged and followed her back.
The two of them strangely did not speak along the way. When they approached the camp, she extended her hand to Char.
"The weapon you just used."
She was asking her captive for prohibited items. Char handed over the [Fire of Origin], turned the tip of the sword towards himself, and gave it to her.
Beast Dancer reached out to grab it, but Char suddenly moved away.
"As a captive, I should have the right to know your name, right?"
"Carly."
Carly\'s answer was immediate. Her eyes on the sword. She felt a peculiar power from it.
After getting the answer, Char handed over the weapon.
Carly sized hip carefully, as if surprised by how he\'d put the weapon away.
There was nothing wrong with this gaze, but it was as aggressive as a machine scanning.
She stared at his top first.
Char very cooperatively undid the leather armor.
She continued to stare at the shirt.
Char very cooperatively stripped his clothes.
Her gaze continued downwards.
"This really won\'t do."
Char indicated that he could not continue.
Carly didn\'t ask for more. Instead, she led him straight into the camp. When they passed the outermost area, Carly whistled at the wolf pack. The huge wolf with moon-white fur leaned over meekly and nuzzled against Carly\'s arm affectionately.
When the people around the bonfire saw that their priest had brought such a man back, they all stared at him with unfriendly eyes, but because of Carly\'s dignity and the wolf behind her, they did not say anything.
Carly brought Char to her tent and pointed at it.
"Get in."
