Terrain like a gobi rift was ideal for hiding, especially in the Barren World. Vegetation was rare and extreme here, and when the wind rose, dust that blotted out the sky would reduce visibility to a minimum. I had only been running for a short while, yet I could no longer see the five Law-Enforcement Hunters or their mounts.
The Law-Enforcement Hunters naturally had their own ways of tracking enemies. If I had no special escape technique, they were sure to catch up with me.
I was sprinting at a speed comparable to a Gale Beast, and by now I no longer needed to maintain a human form. Countless tentacles crawled madly across the ground, moving as fast as a Gale Beast. If I truly had the time it took an incense stick to burn, I would definitely be able to reach somewhere they could no longer find me.
Of course, the Law-Enforcement Hunters were not that stupid. Their superior's order was to kill me. There was not much difference between one incense stick and most of one, and there was also a huge gap between failing to complete the mission and completing it.
