Chapter 286 Impossible, This is Impossible
"That monstrous human... just who is he? A player? How could a player be this strong?"
Kael'thas shuddered as he recalled Lin Tian's unfathomable defense, the complete clone he summoned at will, and the interested look in his eyes when facing his "ultimate blow."
"No, we can't stay here any longer. Although the teleportation of the [Boundless Illusion Talisman] doesn't cause spatial fluctuations, theoretically even a legendary master who is proficient in the laws of space would have a hard time tracking the exact landing point, and could only determine the general direction..."
Kael'thas struggled to his feet, enduring the excruciating pain, and began to survey his surroundings.
The desolate valley, the thick fog, the huge skeletons of creatures scattered everywhere... This place seems to be the edge of an ancient battlefield, with a strong abyssal aura, perfect for him to hide and heal.
"I'll hide here for a while, recover some strength, and then try to contact my 'friends' or 'allies' in other abyssal layers..."
Kael'thas's eyes gleamed with calculation. "I can't go back to Darkevil Castle for now. That monster can't find me, so he might take his anger out on the castle, or he might lie in wait..."
"As for Celia and that monster... I will definitely avenge them!"
Kael'thas clenched his fist, his nails digging deep into his palms, a slight pain that brought him even more clarity.
"Once I've recovered from my injuries, regained sufficient support, or found that monster's weakness... Hmph!"
As he plotted his revenge for the future, he staggered toward the deeper part of the valley, where the fog was thicker, intending to find a completely secluded place to set up a simple concealment barrier and treat his most fatal wound.
However, just as he took two steps, his mind still reeling from escaping death and contemplating the future—
A calm, subtly teasing voice, so familiar it froze his soul, rang out clearly not far behind him, like a ghost, without warning:
"Oh? Randomly teleported hundreds of kilometers? No spatial fluctuations? Even the master couldn't find a trace?"
The sound wasn't loud, but it seemed to carry the force of a thunderbolt, striking Kael'thas's heart hard!
His whole body stiffened abruptly, as if he had been instantly frozen into an ice sculpture by the coldest abyss current!
The joy, smugness, calculation, gloom on his face... all the expressions froze and shattered!
He turned his head slowly and stiffly, like a rusty puppet.
Then, he saw it.
About ten meters behind him was a huge, pale skeleton that resembled the rib of some kind of monster, stuck diagonally in the ground.
Lin Tian himself had already settled down there leisurely, without anyone noticing.
He casually rested one hand on his bent knee, while his other hand seemed to be playing with a wisp of gray mist drifting from between the bones.
He tilted his head slightly, his gaze calmly settling on Kael'thas's face, which was filled with utter horror and absurdity, as if he had seen a ghost.
At the corner of his mouth hung that nonchalant smile that haunted Kael'thas's nightmares...
In the shadows beside Lin Tian, the dark and solid clone, as well as the shrunken, ice-blue dragon (Little White) coiled around another skeleton like a pet, also existed silently.
It was as if they had been waiting there for a long time.
"That's a good idea."
Lin Tian looked at Kael'thas's completely petrified expression, nodded slightly, and commented sincerely:
"The props are also quite good."
"that is......"
He paused, as if searching for a suitable word to describe it, then smiled slightly:
"Running a bit slowly."
......
The desolate Valley of Bones was shrouded in a thick, gray fog that flowed silently among the jagged, pale skeletons like a solidified curtain.
The air was thick with the decay and despair that had settled from the ancient battlefield, as well as a faint, lingering pressure from an even more powerful predator.
However, at this moment, this valley, which should only contain the whispers of the dead, is filled with an even more stagnant and suffocating atmosphere.
Kael'thas stood frozen in place, as if struck by the most powerful petrification magic, unable to even tremble his fingertips.
The relief of surviving a disaster, the plans for the future, and even the heartache and pain caused by losing the [Boundless Illusion Talisman] on his face all froze, shattered, and evaporated the moment he turned his head and saw the figure sitting on the huge rib skeleton.
Time seemed to stand still in his mind.
He could even clearly hear the roar of his blood rushing backward and pounding against his eardrums due to extreme terror.
You can feel your heart pounding wildly in your chest, almost bursting with excruciating pain, and you can taste the metallic sweetness rising from deep in your throat, a mixture of rust and despair.
impossible.
It is absolutely impossible.
This was the only thought that overwhelmed all his reason in an instant.
【Illusory Symbol of Infinity】!
That's an S-rank, one-time use item!
Originating from the ruins of an ancient, long-vanished abyssal civilization!
One of its core functions is that "the transmission process is free from any spatial fluctuations, making it extremely difficult to track!"
This is his greatest source of confidence, and his biggest advantage in daring to act in front of that monster Lin Tian and escape unscathed!
He consulted countless ancient abyssal texts and sought advice from remnant souls who were masters of spatial magic, and all his conclusions were—
Unless one is a true god of the spatial realm who has touched the threshold of godhood and has reached the ultimate understanding of the rules of the world,
Otherwise, it would be absolutely impossible to track down the teleportation point of the [Illusory Talisman of Infinity] using conventional methods. At most, one could vaguely sense a general direction, with a range of at least several hundred kilometers!
And this human... this damn human player!
How could he?!
How could he?!
Just like that... leisurely, precisely, as if visiting someone's home, he sat down a dozen meters away from his teleportation landing point?!
He even brought that damned clone and that ice lizard with him?!
"No...impossible...this is impossible!!!"
Kael'thas finally broke free from that out-of-body stiffness, letting out a twisted, almost beastly, dying roar.
He staggered backward, his bloodshot, dark red eyes, almost bulging out of their sockets, fixed on Lin Tian, filled with an extreme sense of absurdity and the madness of a collapsing understanding.
"How could you possibly have followed us here?! How did you find this place?! The [Illusory Image of Infinity] has no spatial fluctuations! Its teleportation is random, within a radius of 500 to 1000 kilometers! You couldn't possibly know the landing point! Absolutely impossible!!"
