Chapter 151: Chapter 143 Perfect Team Control_1

A few seconds later, the only ones left alive atop the rooftop were Mu You and Cola.

Mu You quickly collected the spoils dropped by the two of them, not having time to inspect them, he hurried to the edge of the rooftop to look down.

By now, the situation of the battlefield below was also becoming clear.

Twenty-three people, and by now only twelve were left alive.

Four of them had run away, terrified of the Slayer’s power, their faces showing vivid fear as they scattered and fled.

But by this time, the distant wailing of police sirens was faintly audible. The police were about to arrive, the Dragon Team Big God’s reinforcements should also be almost on their way, and it would be quite difficult for these men to escape.

The remaining eight hadn’t run away, they had teamed up, led by the two highest ranking players, a level fifteen and a level fourteen, who were holding back the Blood Emperor in a desperate struggle, creating an opportunity for their teammates.

The rest of the six seemed to have already identified their target. Five of them were all running towards a certain direction, the last one took a detour through a sidestreet, but by the looks of his direction, he didn’t seem to be planning to run but was, instead, preparing an ambush.

Mu You followed the direction of the five men’s escape and indeed saw a small figure far away who was hastily trying to flee.

This figure was clad in a somewhat dirty piece of cloth. The player was of level 3 and had numerous life-saving items on him. Various invisibility, teleportation, and shield magic effects appeared on him, making it hard for the five high-level players chasing him to reach.

However, this player was only a level three after all. No matter how many items he had, he was bound to run out eventually.

Seeing the situation, Mu You didn’t have time to stand and watch, he immediately grabbed Cola and jumped down from the rooftop.

Just before hitting the ground, he used teleport to drop safely.

Thanks to that Dragon Team Big God’s overwhelming combat power, this chaotic battle gradually entered a state where he could control it.

Of course, the main DPS was still the Dragon Team Big God. He was capable of annihilating this crew of people, all he lacked was time. And what Mu You needed to do now was to help him create enough time.

Mu You stood at the bottom of the building, looking at the distant street corner.

According to the trajectory of the five men, the corner of the street about a hundred meters ahead was definitely going to be their next checkpoint.

The path of the five pursuing men and the street where Mu You currently stood formed a 90-degree angle, which prevented the other party from observing the situation of his street.

And Mu You’s current position, was just the perfect distance to cast the Snowball Curse!

Mu You was gazing at the street corner ahead, while observing the movements of the five players using the Battle Eagle’s perspective, meanwhile he was quietly calculating the timing.

At a certain moment, he swung his magic wand, and pronounced the incantation for the Snowball Curse.

A snowball about the height of a calf appeared out of thin air in front of him, and with a swift motion, it started rolling away.

As it rolled, the snowball rapidly grew in size, quickly changing from half a person’s height to a full person’s height.

By the time the snowball grew nearly two meters high, its rolling distance finally reached its maximum, just as it was appearing from the street corner, it immediately exploded.

The extreme cold frost covered all the places within ten meters in diameter from the snowball. Any living creature inside that range would be instantly frozen into ice chips!

Unfortunately, the snowball rolled a little too fast. When it exploded, the five of them hadn’t managed to step into the range of the street corner, they were rather startled by the sudden apparition of a large snowball, realized there was an ambush and hurriedly took a detour to avoid it.

"Too early, huh..."

Mu You wasn’t bothered, this first try was just a test. He was also casting the Snowball Curse for the first time and wasn’t sure about how fast this spell would travel.

Now he understood that the snowball moved at about thirty meters per second. It would take a little over three seconds to cover a hundred meters. And this spell had one major advantage: the snowball rolled silently, making virtually no noise, and was hard to notice without a clear line of sight.

Mu You immediately rewound time. He continued to predict the positions of the five men as before and threw the snowball again.

"Bang!"

Three seconds later, the snowball exploded again.

This time he achieved a hit, but it was still a bit early, only hitting the first three of them. The last two who stayed behind were lucky enough to dodge.

"Again!" Mu You didn’t hesitate and activated his pocket watch.

Since he could rewind time infinitely, he obviously wanted to achieve perfection at this important juncture.

In the following attempts, he kept adjusting the timing of his spellcasting. After practicing the same scenario over twenty times, he developed a clear understanding of the speed at which the snowball rolled.

Mu You immediately rewound time again and cast the spell.

As usual, the snowball rolled out at a tremendous speed, and when it reached the corner of the street in the distance, those five players had just shown up as expected.

The five players obviously didn’t expect such a big surprise to be waiting for them around the corner. As they all stepped into the street, they noticed the large rolling snowball next to them. They paused, clearly shocked. When they finally thought to evade, it was already too late.

"Pop!"

The next moment, the snowball exploded. Amongst the dancing frost and snowflakes, five players were perfectly frozen into ice sculptures.

"Nice!"

A slightly surprised praise was heard faintly coming from the distance.

The sounds were rapidly approaching. In two beats, they had closed in significantly.

Obviously, the Blood Emperor behind had shaken off the two obstructive opponents and was charging towards them.

The Snowball Curse at maximum range could freeze for up to five seconds!

And, being frozen for five seconds by a top-tier expert during a chase - one could already imagine what that would lead to.

The two experts blocking from behind had already been decapitated, and the five of them were about to follow in these two’s footsteps.

The five, encased in ice, could feel the rapidly closing footsteps from behind which filled their hearts with near despair.

Barely after the painstakingly delayed five seconds, everyone managed to break free. However, none of them felt any joy from their escape as the Grim Reaper had arrived alongside them!

Just as the five broke free, and had no time to escape, a blood-red figure flashed by. Amidst the crossing sword Qi, three heads flew up directly. The other two were pierce through their throat and heart by several Jade Beads, turning into a stream of blood that entered the Blood Emperor’s body, becoming a part of his power.

And what about Mu You at this moment?

As soon as he threw the snowball, he moved away from the spot immediately with the mindset ’a real man never looks back at explosions’ and bolted down another street.

- Of course, in reality, he had practiced so many times that he was confident that the snowball would flawlessly stop the five, so there was no need to waste time verifying the outcome. There was another important individual waiting for his support on the other side.

Some distance away, in the midst of alleys, a little boy donned in linen clothes was trying to escape desperately.

Mu You guessed right. After repeatedly fending off his pursuers for so long, the boy had exhausted every imaginable means to escape. If he was caught again, he’d really be captured this time.

Fortunately, it seems like the pursuers had been temporarily held off, and he couldn’t hear them from behind.

The boy let out a sigh of relief, but he didn’t dare to ease the tension. He kept winding his way through the alleys, recalling the escort’s advice in his mind, "Run! Do all you possibly can to escape. As long as you can last for two minutes, you can survive!"

Two minutes...

The little boy was counting the time silently in his heart. It’s nearly two minutes, and no one has been after me for a while, he should be safe now right...

Just as he thought about this, a swift set of footsteps sounded from the neighboring alley. A figure suddenly leaped out and with a flying kick, landed squarely on the boy.

A flash of light burst from the boy’s body, a white shield flickered into existence, blocking the kick, but the force upended the boy and sent him rolling to the floor, leaving him stunned.

"Ha ha, keep running!"

A young man in black emerged from the mouth of the alley, rushing towards the boy with a somewhat frenzied smile on his face.

This mission cost too much. His teammates were either dead or wounded. Now, he was the only one left on their communication channel.

But fortunately, he’s about to get his hands on the prize. All he must do is catch this boy, and then he can instantly activate the Transmission Mark on his body to leave.

With beautiful expectations of the future, visions playing in the youth’s mind, he leaped towards the boy on the ground who was yet to get up.

At this point, the boy had no way to defend himself, finally exposing an expression of panic.

However, this expression only ignited even more excitement in youth, he leaped into the air with his arm stretched out towards the boy....

But the moment his hand was close to touching the boy’s collar, a sound of crackling rang out from the darkness in the back alley.

And under the youth’s gaze, a chain claw quietly emerged from the darkness, grabbed the boy first, and before the youth could reach him, pulled the boy into the darkness.

The air seemed to freeze in that moment.

The sneer on the youth’s face also froze along with it.

"Damn it, who the hell?!"

The youth stared dumbfounded at the empty ground in front of him, his eyes instantly filled with bloodshot veins.

What was the saying about a duck flying away right at the lip of one’s mouth? That’s exactly what this was!

Moreover, for him, it’s not just a duck but his life that’s flown away!

If he cannot capture the target, even if he teleports back, there won’t be a good end for him.

At this instant, the youth was completely enraged, he dashed into the eerie, dark alley without a second thought.

On the other side, after Mu You had hooked the boy and brought him closer, he immediately teleported away from the alley. Then, gripping the back of the boy’s neck, he ran off in another direction.

He had already observed the ability of the pursuer behind him, a Level 13 player. Although he might be able to fight at full power, there was still a risk. Moreover, with a burden on his hand, it was obviously best to run first.

Just manage to delay for a while. When the big gods arrive, someone will naturally take care of the rest. There’s no need for him to take the risk.

Luckily, the boy in his hand understood the situation. He probably knew that Mu You was his savior. After being grabbed, he didn’t resist at all, allowing Mu You to carry him by the neck and run away.

Only during the escape, Mu You managed to spare a moment to glance at the boy he had rescued. This glance surprised him, causing him to stumble over his steps and almost drop the boy.

"What the heck? The kids here can’t be this...unique-looking, right?"
