The changes in Shurima also profoundly influenced all countries in the entire Runeland.

For example, Zuan - When Picheng began to win over the city-states along the Valoran Strait based on mutual protection in the northeast, it would inevitably relax its exploitation on Zuan at the same time.

Under this situation, Takeda Saito, as the most powerful alchemy baron at Zuan, naturally wanted to get rid of Zuan's current position as a primary processing base for Picheng raw materials, and take advantage of the situation and even control the entire Zuan.

Kamil's thoughts about Takeda can be said to be very insightful, but in order for Picheng to have a broader market, she did not refuse such changes, and even relaxed a lot of chains to a certain extent - this is not a bad thing for Picheng!

Therefore, headed by Zuan Mitong represented by Eke, many official and underground organizations in this alchemy city received various tasks and began to take action for the entire Northeast mutual protection. Some of them went to Ni Town to conduct on-site investigations, while others began to eliminate the bandits in Kalduga... No one would have thought that with the arrival of the Shurima change, Zuan became the first and most direct beneficiary.

Ike's eyes couldn't see that far - but as a person who truly loves Zuan and this city, he at least knew that his current work was of extremely important significance to this city, so even if the methods were not very open and honest, he was still extremely human.

In this way, Ike, who was squatting on the wall, carefully observed the situation in the city lord's mansion, while placing his hand into the bag on his back.

In that small package, there was an equally small controller. This gadget named Z-type driver by Ike was his confidence in this mission.

For others, sneaking cannot make mistakes.

But for Ike, making mistakes is also a chance.

Just succeed once, it's enough!

Thinking of this, he confirmed that there were no guards around him, and finally jumped gently and came to the yard.

The guards would not arrive here for a few minutes, and Ike thought he had enough time to enter the study and began to search.

But...how is it that simple?

Before Ike could touch the study door, the sound of arrows breaking through the air came from beside him.

Ike rolled subconsciously, but was still pierced through his calf. The next moment, he decisively activated the z-type drive and appeared on the wall again.

The calf still hurts, but Ike gritted his teeth and tried to control himself not to see or where he went.

Compared to his painful calves, he cared more about...where the sniper was.

In fact, if Ike had not experienced it personally, Ike would not believe that someone would use bows and arrows to accurately hit him in the dark night. In Ike's heart, bows and arrows have long been completely out of date weapons, and they should have been thrown away all the old objects in the museum. As a result, he is now injured by the old objects and is in great pain.

What's worse is that even though Ike put on a night vision device, he could not find the sniper.

Something is wrong, very wrong!

Where is this sniper hiding?

………………………………………

Where is the sniper?

The answer is...the sniper is far away.

Ike naturally wouldn't know that Varus, who was in charge of the defense mission, was thousands of meters away from him at this time, and the dark archer simply squatted on the bell tower of the library in the center of Keneser!

If it weren't for Varus being too far away from here, how could Ike avoid the arrow of the Dark Genesis's sneak attack?

And if Ike was shot strong by Varus' arrow... he probably wouldn't have the chance to use his z-type driver at all!

Compared to the nervous Ike, Varus, who had been observing the situation in the bell tower, was rarely a little curious.

The arrow just now obviously had penetrated the other party's calves. In Varus's view, the result of this piercing will cause the other party's entire body to be infected by the corruption force, and it will turn into a pool of unobstructed objects when it is familiar.

But the development of things was completely beyond Verus' expectations. The other party used a method that he did not understand and returned to his appearance when he was not caught in an arrow...

What kind of magic is this?

Very interesting!

Thinking of this, Varus saw Eke poking his head and setting off again, jumping off the wall, and then consciously avoiding it at the door.

But...Verus did not shoot arrows this time!

From Varus's perspective, he saw Eke falling on the spot like a fool, and knocking away on the spot.

"What is this guy doing?" Verus was confused, but he still pulled out his longbow. "Is there any brain problem?"

However, the next moment, Varus, who had let go of the bowstring, was surprised to find that the other party used the strange magic again and appeared on the wall again.

As for Varus' arrow... it naturally fell into nothing again.

………………………………………

Ike panicked.

After doing the z-type drive and mastering the ability to trace back time, he has never been so panicked.

Why is this happening?!

Although he did not find the archer hiding in the dark, he was clearly ready to dodge with time, but the result was... the arrow did not arrive as expected!

How is this possible!

Ike knew very well that his time backtrack could be carried out with hundreds of yards around him, and everything around him would flow upstream in the long river of time.

But now, Ike's time has been traced back, but the arrows and the people who shoot the archers have not traced back... Does that mean that the other party is far away from him?

What I need to face is an archer who is hidden hundreds of yards but can accurately hit him in the dark!

At this moment, Ike finally understood why Takeda could only find him and why he had failed in Kenneth before!

With such an archer guard, it is really difficult to take out something from the study!

Hell, Kenneth has such a person!

Ike's mind was full of messy news back to the wall - when he realized the distance between the archer and himself, he also realized that his current position was not safe.

So, without caring about the pain in his calf, the task, and the patrolman who would come back soon, Ike decisively turned over to the wall.

No, let’s retreat this time for the mission, and find another opportunity for yourself next time!

But if you want to leave...how is it that simple?

In the distance, Varus had once again opened his longbow, and at the same time, Yasuo's figure also appeared in the night - so before Ike could leave the alley, he was blocked.
Chapter completed!
