Chapter 180 Tracking
In Knife Talk World, city ruins are divided into four grades of S, A, B, and C from high to low according to the degree of danger.

Among them, the city ruins of S level are almost all insects and beasts of level eight or above, which are extremely dangerous. Even a level nine knifesmith may fall.

Therefore, there are very few swordsmiths who go to the ruins of S-level cities. If Gao Mingliang really wants to choose a place to hide, he has to say that the ruins of S-level cities are a suitable choice.

However, the S-level city ruins are dangerous restricted areas for ordinary swordsmiths, but not for Lin Ze. Even if he is surrounded by insects, he can escape with his flame wings. He is the most threatening.

After all, according to his estimation, the strength of the 'Pillar of Man' knifesmith is already very close to the hero level, and it is not easy to deal with.

Not long after, Pan Zongchang brought a map of the ruins of the S2 city, marking the places where Gao Mingliang's traces were found.

After replenishing the food, Lin Ze immediately set off and rushed to the ruins of the S2 city without stopping.

The city ruins of S2 are more than 50 kilometers away from the Blackstone inhabited area, and it would take at least half a day to walk. After Lin Ze left the inhabited area for a certain distance, he used his flame wings to hurry and arrived at his destination in less than an hour.

Compared with ABC-level urban ruins, S-level urban ruins not only have more high-level insects, but also have a large number of flying insects, which can be seen everywhere.

Along the way, Lin Ze killed at least 200 flying insects that didn't have long eyes and wanted to attack him.

In order to avoid causing a big commotion and being noticed by Gao Mingliang in advance, he had no choice but to disperse the flame wings, and instead entered the ruins of the S2 city from the ground, carefully avoiding the places where the swarms gathered.

Under the invasion of the long years, the buildings in the city have collapsed without exception and are in dilapidated condition. The streets are covered with moss and lush vegetation. You can faintly see black shadows appearing in and out of them, and the long sound of insects can be heard from time to time in the distance .

Lin Ze stepped lightly, passing over the ruins quietly and swiftly.

There are three places where Gao Mingliang's traces were found. He has already searched the first two places, but found nothing, and the place where he is now is the last one.

There are many insects and beasts in the ruins of the city, and their activities are frequent. Even if Gao Mingliang left any traces, most of them have already been destroyed. can discover something.

Not long after, Lin Ze found a corpse under a collapsed wall.

The corpse was a man in his 40s, wearing a specially made battle uniform with the logo of the Knifesmiths Guild, with no obvious wounds on his body.

This strange appearance immediately attracted Lin Ze's attention. He stepped forward to observe closely, and saw a large number of small and uniform white foams on the mouth and nose of the corpse, and was startled for a while.

"Drowning?"

Anyone who dares to come to the ruins of an S-level city to hunt insects and beasts must be at least an eighth-level swordsmith. A swordsmith of this level will die of drowning. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Lin Ze would have been hard to believe.

For a moment, a figure flashed in his mind, he paused, and continued to look over the corpse, and sure enough, he found residual silver liquid in the ear of the corpse and the bottom of the pocket of the combat uniform.

"Sure enough, Gao Mingliang did it!" Lin Ze let out a long breath and lifted his spirits.

Gao Mingliang's Soul Knife ability is 'God Man', which can manipulate a mercury-like liquid to condense into a huge humanoid creature. In addition to its huge and unparalleled strength, it is also his common attack to suck the enemy into the body and block the air to drown it means.

After taking over the task of killing Gao Mingliang, Lin Ze asked the Swordsmith Guild to provide detailed information on the former's strength.

"So, Gao Mingliang is indeed hiding in the ruins of the S2 city, and it's not far from here."

Lin Ze was slightly delighted. He didn't expect to be lucky. He discovered something when he first came here, but soon he fell into distress. Although it is nearby, it is still a big area. If you want to find someone who is hiding on purpose Not easy.

"It's a pity, it would be great if there were skills to find enemies."

Lin Ze murmured to himself in a low voice, and when he finished speaking, he suddenly had an idea and patted his forehead.

"Almost forgot, isn't there still spirit magic?"

He immediately moved his mind slightly, exited the world of knife language, and then logged back into the world of Wangting.

Not long after he first entered the Wang Ting World, Lin Ze once encountered two groups of people from the traditional school and the innovative school fighting in the practice dojo, and almost injured Chen Muzhen by mistake.

Later, in order to find out the perpetrator, the students of the reform school performed a high-level spiritual technique called "searching for butterflies", and found the murderer through the residual spiritual power.

Lin Ze was quite impressed by this, and when he thought of the ability to find enemies, he immediately thought of this spiritual technique.

"However, the principle of searching for butterflies is to find the owner of the breath through the remaining spiritual power breath. I don't know if it will have any effect on the soul energy?"

"Maybe it can be fused with soul energy and transformed into a skill that can search for the breath of soul energy!"

Coming out of the Shu family's mansion, Lin Ze immediately rushed to the Lingshu Zhenyang Academy, and went to the bulletin board of the school to check, only to find that the nearest butterfly hunting course was three days later.

He was not in a hurry, anyway, when he left the world of Knife Language, the time in the game was suspended, so Gao Mingliang would run away and disappear.

So he practiced quietly in Wang Ting World for three days before going to the Butterfly Hunting Course.

After taking the psychic potion, Lin Ze's control over the aura has greatly increased in precision, which is reflected in the practice of spiritual art, that is, the speed of practice is greatly accelerated, not to mention the 50% cultivation BUFF blessing. In five days, he had mastered the Butterfly Seeking Art, and then devoted himself to research, and spent three days transforming the soul energy version of the Butterfly Seeking Art.

After everything was ready, Lin Ze returned to the world of knife language and reappeared next to the drowned body.

Glancing at the corpse, he spread out his palm, and a halo of spiritual energy slowly emerged in his palm, slowly condensing into a purple-black, small and beautiful butterfly.

Under his control, the butterfly slowly flew to the corpse, lingered for a while at the ears and pockets of the combat uniform, then flew high into the sky, hovered for a while, and flew westward.

Lin Ze was overjoyed and hurriedly followed.

To the west, there is a relatively intact building.

In a room on the third floor, Gao Mingliang casually threw aside the nutrient cream tube that he had eaten, leaned his back heavily against the wall, and made a muffled bang, but he didn't seem to notice it, but his eyes were slightly confused. Looking out the window.

Several months have passed since he learned of Master Qi's death and fled from the Heishi settlement in panic, then hid in the ruins of the city.

Several months of living in the wilderness had turned him into a scruffy-looking vagabond. His messy hair was sticky and hadn't been washed for an unknown amount of time. His clothes were even more dirty and full of stains. An unbearable stench, which was unimaginable for Gao Mingliang, who used to be very particular about cleanliness, no matter when and where, his hair and fingernails were carefully groomed.

And all of this, in the final analysis, is because of that guy named Lin Ze!
He really couldn't understand how a guy who had just graduated from the training camp could quickly grow to the strength to kill the 'Pillar of Man' knife caster. This kind of improvement speed was simply unheard of.

Gao Mingliang asked himself, even if he faced Master Qi, he was not sure that he could kill him, but Lin Ze did it!

This baffled him!
It was because of Lin Ze's meddling that he and Qi Shi's foolproof plan went bankrupt. In the end, Qi Shi died, and he had to escape from the residential area like a bereaved dog, and was reduced to hiding in the ruins of an S-level city. Insects and beasts work together, and you have to be careful not to be spotted by the other swordsmiths, and you are always in fear.

Thinking that this kind of life would continue in the future, Gao Mingliang felt as uncomfortable as being eaten by insects and ants, and his hatred for Lin Ze became more and more violent.

Bang!
He suddenly punched heavily on the wall beside him, cracking a large crack, and countless stone powder fell straight down.

"Damn Lin Ze!"

A deep voice echoed in the room, and the resentment in the tone almost overflowed.

After a while, Gao Mingliang languished like discouraged, reached out his hand to take out a nutrient cream from the tactical backpack beside him, and swallowed it in big mouthfuls.

The tactical backpack was looted after he killed an eighth-level knifesmith. The nutritional cream that he used to dismiss in the settlement area was now a rare delicacy for him.

Thinking of this, Gao Mingliang's expression became gloomy again.

Suddenly, a hint of warning surged in his heart, and immediately activated the Soul Knife feature without hesitation, summoning a large amount of silver liquid to cover his whole body.

The moment after these actions were completed, there was a loud bang, and the whole building collapsed suddenly as if it had been bombarded by a salvo of shells. Countless stones crashed down, and the dust filled the sky with fine stones splashing in all directions.

With the collapsed building as the center, the shock wave spread rapidly, and in a blink of an eye, an area with a radius of hundreds of meters was shrouded in thick smoke and dust.

boom!
There was a whistling sound of piercing through the air, and a ball of silver liquid about two meters in diameter suddenly broke through the dust, flew out quickly, and stopped a hundred meters away.

The silver liquid quickly retracted, revealing Gao Mingliang's figure. His face was full of shock and doubt, and he stared in horror at the ruined building not far away.

"Got you!"

An indifferent voice suddenly sounded not far away, Gao Mingliang turned his head to look immediately, and found that on the street tens of meters away, there was a tall and tall young man with a purple-black butterfly standing on his shoulder.

The moment he saw the youth's face clearly, Gao Mingliang couldn't help shrinking his pupils, and his cheeks twitched violently.

"Lin Ze!"
