Chapter 211: Baiting (B)

Whoosh! A crescent-shaped strike came towards Whittaker who used Ghost step to evade the attack, and at the same time, an afterimage was left behind. To the experts below, it seemed like Whittaker has been cut in two by the crescent shaped strike which blasted the Rocky Mountain peak. However, before they could rejoice his death, a taunt was thrown their way.

"You are pathetically slow! So are the rest of you, catch me if you can, losers!" Whittaker yelled. His voice was tinged with disdain and his eyes were burning in it.

Hearing his words, a tick formed on their frowning faces. They wanted to capture him and tear him apart, limb by limb.

"Brothers, go get him!" Alex shouted before jumping directly towards the Rocky mountain peak from the summit, a feat only possible for high-rank battle masters.

Four members of the Blood Oracle also leapt up from the summit of the rocky mountain towards the mountaintop just like shooting stars. They were all C-rank battle masters, even the most weakest among them was able to jump towards the mountain peak with a single leap.

There were also nine more D-rank mages and battle masters, and right now there were flying and climbing towards the mountain peak where Whittaker stood.

From the looks of it, they will reach him in some moments. Each and every one glared at him with an angry expressions.

Directly battling against them all was literally suicide. Furthermore, his job wasn't to fight them but bait them. Without saying anything further, Whittaker turned tail and ran.

'Good. I had attracted all of them, now I just need to bait them towards the southern entrance of the Grand Canyon.' He thought before rushing towards the opposite edge of the Rocky mountain.

The southern entrance is also the place where he entered the Grand Canyon Region from.

Looking at the brat running away from them, Chaim could not help but curse: "Shameless! Chase after him, tonight he is our main prey!"

"Since he used the Ball of Devastation, he's bound to be wearing rare equipment. Let's do our best to kill him, we'll avenge our brothers and make a killing too!" Alex shouted before chasing after Whittaker.

Alex was a calculating man. He believed that since this contestant was able to use Ball of Devastation, he is rich and killing rich contestant always bring a good amount of profit.

"Yes, boss!" The rest of the ground excitely shouted before they put their all into the chase.

Although Whittaker wished to escape, the contestants killers chasing after him had no plans to let him run away. Most of the battle Masters used [Energy Bursts] to rush straight at him, summoning their class weapons along the way. Whereas, the mages immediately used [Electric shock], [Wind Bind], [Earth Confinement] and other spells. These spells had the effect to decrease the traget speed and immobolize the target for several seconds. 

If Whittaker get hit by any one of the spell, the battle masters would be able to catch up to him and finish him off.

Whittaker was able to see what's happening behind him because of Devansha's vision. Seeing that various spells were coming straight at him, he evaded them all by jumping off the Rocky mountain.

Boom! Bam! Bam! Along these resounding reverberation, he plunged down the mountain under the stares of the expert. A mere E-rank battle master jumping down such a tall mountain meant certain death!

The C-rank battle masters halted at the edge of the Rocky Mountain to see his demise. 

Contrary to their expectations, Whittaker used the second effect of the Azure-sky Earrings to take Flight. Under the stares of the expert, he gracefully landed on the ground and made a rush for it. 

Wtaching his silhouette disappear, the battle masters didn't think twice before plunging down the mountain peak. The moment their feet landed on the ground, they rushed in the direction where Whittaker had gone off to. The mages also followed behind them, unaware of the pairs of calculating black eyes looking at their backs.

The effect of the invisibility talisman was too impressive and they failed to notice him

"As expected, my real body guessed it right. Now, I should go and loot all the equipment and return to his side before midnight." Whittaker doppelganger said, he waited for the last of the Blood Oracle member to go away before stepping out of his hiding place.

Before climbing up the Rocky mountain, Whittaker had created this doppelganger by using the skill Avatar of Night. He had also given him the hunters ring and a invisibility talisman.

The doppelganger possessed all of Whittaker's skills. However, the doppelganger didn't possessed his class weapon. But it was sufficient enough to do the task of collecting equipment, Mana Light and Battle Light from the summit of the Rocky Mountain.

After activating the Haste Talisman, the doppelganger immediately went to the treasure ground.

As expected, there was no one left guarding the summit of the Rocky Mountain. The doppelganger had the same personality as Whittaker. He couldn't help but beam a smile at the face of so much treasure. He then began to pick up all the loot scattered on the ground.

"Damn! That bastard is as slippery as a Eel. Even after all this, we still haven't managed to catch him!"

"How can a mere E-rank battle master be faster than D-rank and C-rank battle masters!"

"How the heck is his flexibility and speed so great?!"

"I can't believe this shit!"

The couldn't believe what is happening.

Was this a dream?

A mage pinched himself, and he was sure that this is reality!

For the past two minutes, they weren't able to touch a single hair on his body.

These C-rank and D-rank contestants killers had no chance of catching up to Whittaker who was using Ghost steps on top of a 275% speed boost.

Whittaker kept luring all thirteen of them by intentionally decreasing his speed time to time and allowing them to somewhat catch up to him, giving them false hope. Although his battle energy consumption was high, he repeatedly used battle energy restoration potion to match up the consumption. He also attacked the ones most close to him by using Frost Bolts.
