Cataclysm King Chapter 425

Chapter 425 A gift from three thousand years ago

Ji Xun used his shadow to confirm the status of the team of 100 defectors, and murderous intent suddenly burst into his eyes.

He judged the strength of the team members from the armor and military ranks on their bodies, and murmured: "A seventh-level colonel commander, and two sixth-level deputies."

This was pretty much what he expected.

From the current point of view, these "defectors" are bait to lure Talen's senior officials out of the city.

Now the mousetrap has been triggered and the angel has been hit hard.

 Accordingly, most of the danger has passed.

Previously, the highest level card master in the southern continent who entered the extradimensional space was level seven. In other words, the upper limit of the difficulty of the space for adventurers in "S-level plot" should be around level eight.

 Correspondingly, level A difficulty should be level seven, which may have some special means.

 Given Ji Xun's current strength, this shouldn't be a big problem as long as it doesn't trigger any other hidden plots.

Furthermore, he speculated that most of the level difficulty assessment of Space Will was on the way to find these defectors on the battlefield.

  Instead of killing.

Ji Xun used Ivan's space talent to easily locate the two [Space Rough Stones] in this mountain col.

This has avoided most of the plot risks.

But this is a battlefield after all, and Ji Xun alone is not sure he can kill this group of people instantly.

Thinking of this, he decisively took out the psychic scroll.

 Infused with magic power, the scroll suddenly shines brightly.

In the blink of an eye, two beautiful figures slowly appeared in the black nine-pointed star formation.

 It is Chujiu and Nanjing.

Seeing the reinforcements coming, Ji Xun didn't hesitate and shouted: "Do it!"

The three of them had already discussed detailed tactics. As soon as they finished speaking, Ji Xun rushed towards the mountain col.

Chujiu and Nanjing followed closely behind.

 In the mountain col, the Imperial Guard team was still undergoing repairs.

 But suddenly, the seventh-level commander Luoden looked stern.

As the commander of the Royal Guards, he immediately sensed three powerful auras and shouted loudly: "Enemy attack!"

As expected of an elite army, with this order, a hundred people around Luoden immediately gathered into a battle formation and entered a fighting state.

 In the blink of an eye, three figures, black, white, and blue, rushed over.

Ji Xun squinted at the battle formation in front of him, and without the slightest concern about evading, he bumped into the black knight in the front row holding a heavy shield.

Judging from the reaction, that group of defectors were elite.

This battle efficiency is also the most perfect tacit understanding Ji Xun has ever seen.

 They immediately used various legion tactics to limit the rush to the formation.

The ground instantly turned into quicksand, and the surrounding air became more and more imprisoned. Before Ji Xun could get close to a hundred meters, vines all over the ground were already entangled. And directly opposite, there are individual heavy mechanical artillery pieces that are shining with magic energy!

Ji Xun really wanted to rush forward like this, but he was afraid that he would turn into ashes before he even got close.

However, just when he was about to be controlled, a space crack appeared in the void, and Ji Xun stepped into it. When he reappeared, he was already face to face in the middle of the war.

"not good!"

Seeing the target disappear, the hundred-man team immediately secretly thought something was wrong, but it was not without any countermeasures.

As soon as Ji Xun landed, several daggers poked out of the void around him.

 The lurking assassins all stabbed Ji Xun who was rushing into the formation.

 “Keng!”

 “Keng!”

 “Keng!”

Fires flew everywhere.

Ji Xun, who was in the three-headed demon state, had bronze skin all over his body that was secretly glowing, and there was also a thick layer of Gang Qi.

Even if these daggers pierced the body's protective aura, they were already 90% exhausted. When they touched the skin again, they only made a few shallow marks.

Ji Xun didn't care about others. His goal from beginning to end was to go to the seventh level!

 “Ba Fist·Earth Ming!”

Ji Xun's most powerful killing move is to raise his hand and punch.

His fist was wrapped with layers of ripples that affected the void, and he punched the seventh-level commander in the chest.

With his current strength, this punch is really going to hit hard, and even a seventh-level opponent will be severely damaged.

However, Commander Luoden looked at the murderous intention coming towards him, without any intention of avoiding it. There was only confusion in his eyes, as if he had recognized several magical and mysterious techniques integrated in this move: "Inducing the gods to fall? Wu Guang Da Da Sun? Gluttony? Who is this Supreme Overlord!"

 There is no time to think in battle.

In the blink of an eye, Ji Xun punched forward.

However, the fist did not hit the target as expected, but stopped ten centimeters from the man's chest.

 “Space barrier?”

Ji Xun's pupils suddenly shrank.

Although he was not surprised at all that his test attack could not hurt the opponent.

Ji Xun was slightly surprised. At the same time, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and his heart was filled with fighting spirit: "No wonder, this is the level of difficulty that an level plot should have."

The ability displayed by the guy in front of me should be another [Diamond 5-Star Gazer Warlock].

But this is much better than the sixth-level deacon Ji Xun once encountered.

Almost the moment he punched, the expressionless commander suddenly turned over a spell card in his hand. The moment the spell was poured into it, several "Blades of the Void" appeared at Ji Xun's door.

This understatement of counterattack is enough to kill almost any enemy at close range, even the seventh level!

However, Ji Xun's current grasp of the laws of space is not the same as before.

He sensed the location where the Void Blades would appear the moment the opponent used the spell. He skillfully stepped into the air and avoided the black blades with almost no risk.

"Huh?"

Obviously the other party didn't expect Ji Xun to be able to avoid it, so he let out a light sigh.

However, before he could think about it, several flying knives were already stabbing through the air quickly.

 Commander Luoden is proficient in the laws of space, so of course he immediately sensed the fluctuation of the flying knife cutting through the air.

However, before he could wonder why the opponent was using such an obviously useless move, he instinctively blocked it with a space barrier.

 But the next second, he suddenly understood, and suddenly thought in his heart: "It turns out that this flying knife is just a bait to test the distance!"

　　However it was already too late.

Ji Xun had already determined the thickness of the folding space of the barrier and punched out.

The deacon of the Holy Holy See who also knew space spells he met last time was very embarrassed the first time he dealt with it.

 But now that I have experience in dealing with it, I can just repeat the old tricks.

The precise distance has been determined. Normally, this punch will definitely hit the opponent's body.

 But at this time, an accident happened again.

Na Luoden knew that he couldn't avoid it. He was surprised for a moment, but then a scornful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, as if to say: "You are too naive."

 A strange scene happened immediately.

His chest was like a big hole leading to the endless void, and this destructive punch actually hit the empty space.

Ji Xun felt as if his fist power was being released into the endless void, and he immediately realized something: "The stargazer's exclusive demonic magic—Starry Sky Exile!"

As expected of the Imperial Guards of the Talon Dynasty three thousand years ago, this magical and mysterious art can be found at the drop of a hat.

Ji Xun was amazed because this sequence was almost lost in the Eastern Wasteland, let alone the void magic-level secret technique "Starry Sky Exile"!

It is said that a card master who masters this magical skill is equivalent to having a channel connecting the endless starry sky.

Each of the fifty-two magical mysteries has its own merits.

 The power of this secret technique is that as long as the channel can withstand it, it can theoretically banish anything, including physical matter, including energy attacks!

If we really want to talk about the shortcomings, it is that the consumption of spells is very alarming.

  But compared to its function, this shortcoming is simply negligible.

“It's really a bug-like ability.”

Ji Xun saw that his punch failed, and a helpless smile appeared in his eyes.

 With this ability, almost any attack is meaningless until the opponent's spell power is exhausted.

 “It's a bit troublesome. Now it seems that it will be difficult to kill quickly.”

 The moment Ji Xun realized that his attack had failed, he dodged the opponent's attack again.

 From the first moment the opponent showed "Starry Sky Exile", he knew that his ability was unlikely to kill him quickly.

As expected, the defector in the level plot difficulty is a seventh-level person with special abilities.

 Fortunately, Ji Xun also has two powerful helpers.

 The moment he rushed into the war, Chujiu and Nanjing also rushed over.

Nan Jing used a large-scale group control spell [Arena] to instantly trap hundreds of people in the valley.

 Another five-eyed strange cat was channeled with one hand, and a chaotic mental field swept over him, making the enemy confused for an instant.

But Chujiu's attack seemed simple and crude.

 She walked straight over, the sky was filled with ice and flowers, and she apparently used the magical mysterious method "No Life Forbidden Ruins".

Ji Xun had never dared to break into the legion battle formation before, but she had no scruples at all.

Wherever it passes, quicksand turns into hard ice, vines freeze into ice sculptures, and even the elements are emptied by the extremely cold realm. The huge valley turns into a world of ice and snow.

Hold the [Sismark Holy Grail] on the ninth day of the month, blessed by endless divine power, like the arrival of the Snow Queen, walking step by step.

　　She had received the luck of royal power before, and her overbearing royal power was like the might of a dragon, so overwhelming that hundreds of people dared not look directly at her. As I walked step by step, I could only hear the crackling sound of ice cracking in my ears.

Not far away, the black knights wearing heavy armor, the protective spells on their bodies were like extinguished flames. In a blink of an eye, the armor was covered with thick frost, and they died in an instant.

 In just a few breaths, most of the 100-man Guards Corps were frozen to the ground and unable to move.

 The impact of high-level frost laws and spiritual compound spells froze even his thoughts.

Even if this team is an elite one, most of them will be killed or wounded.

Even if someone is not dead, it will be difficult to get out of trouble and fight again.

Ji Xun saw this scene with his peripheral vision and exclaimed in his heart: "It's so amazing. It seems that they have really received a lot of powerful inheritance in the imperial mausoleum."

 It's been a long time since I've seen two old friends take action, especially in Chujiu.

 When I look at it now, I am really impressed.

Although the White Queen's inanimate realm is not directed at him, Ji Xun also feels a fatal threat. Is this something that a sixth-level card master can possess?

 Covering a wide range of areas, there is no escape.

 With continuous frost damage, the enemy will die sooner or later.

 However, what was even more surprising was the seventh-level commander on the opposite side!

Roden looked at Chujiu and Nan Jing who suddenly took action, and his expression changed suddenly: "White Queen? And Mr. Nan's magical and mysterious magic "Yu Shen Ting"? "

As the leader of the Guards, how could he not see the way the two women took action?

　　Not to mention the [White Queen], a secret inheritance accumulated by the Talon royal family for tens of thousands of years, the "Royal God Court" is also a unique inheritance of the high priest lineage.

How would it appear here?

 Still appear at the same time!

As if he had understood something, Luoden had a look of relief and surprise on his face, and he said with great emotion: "So that's it. So the purpose of Mr. Nan's asking us to defect is not to let us escape with the original stone. It's this."

 It is definitely not normal for the heirs of the royal family and the heirs of the high priest line to appear among the rebels at the same time.

Ji Xun doesn't know how Space Will will patch it to make up for this problem.

 He also had a guess that Chujiu and Nanjing's actions would trigger some hidden plots.

 The facts are as expected.

This is a plot mission in an extrdimensional space, and Ji Xun and the others dealt with these defectors without mercy.

But what they never expected was that the battle situation turned out to be one-sided!

Although the three of them are incomparable in combat power, it is not difficult to kill this group of people.

 But at least the seventh-level commander who has mastered the laws of space will never be killed so easily. His spatial ability is all about escaping. Even if the three of them join forces, there is a high chance that the other party will escape.

 But just now, Ji Xun punched him.

Originally, he could use the starry sky to dismiss the injury leaders again, but stood there blankly, and let himself be worn by a punch.

 The vitality was rapidly flowing out of the mutilated body, but there was no trace of fear or regret on Luoden's face.

On the contrary, the officer with handsome blond hair showed a relieved smile towards Chujiu and Nanjing.

Those pupils that gradually dilated seemed to see the future of civilization.

While grinning, scarlet blood seeped out between his teeth. Even though he was dead, the commander of the Imperial Guard was still smiling.

 As soon as he died, the others were completely unable to resist, and in the blink of an eye, the whole squad of 100 people died.

Ji Xun and the others did not expect that this plot mission would go so smoothly.

 Of course they also discovered that there was something fishy about the death of this seventh-level commander.

 The two women looked at Ji Xun with doubts on their faces.

 They thought Ji Xun had used some secret method to kill this seventh-level man.

However, Ji Xun shook his head.

He was vaguely aware that this defection was not that simple.

Ji Xun didn't think much and took off the bag from the body's waist.

Once you open it, you will see two stones with a black-purple halo like luminous pearls.

This is the space treasure [Space Rough Stone] in the plot prompt.

 Before the three of them thought about it, enlightenment also emerged.

"You have completed the level plot and killed the defectors. Killed the legion commander Rodon and obtained 14,000 combat merits and 1 gold medal."

“Trigger the level hidden plot: the entrustment of Colonel Roton, the commander of the Guards. You have obtained two [Space Stones], and you and your teammates need to ensure that they do not fall into the hands of the rebels.”

 It is not surprising that Ji Xun completed the mission.

 But there is another hidden mission?

Ji Xun was also confused.

There seems to be something wrong with this mission prompt. It was clearly stated before that the reward was to be brought back to the imperial city, but why did it change to the point where it was over without being robbed?

Ji Xun didn't dare to expose this thing.

 Since he could sense it through Ivan before, other people in the rebels might be able to do it too.

 Just like the mysterious insect mother Kalakta, the outer god.

Thinking of this, Ji Xun threw the two stones to Ivan.

This little loli swallowed it in one bite.

 This is another BUG.

Ivan is no longer in the plot, so even if the outside **** comes, he will probably not be able to find these two rough stones again.

As for the hidden plot that is triggered, if you can't figure it out, just search for souls.

Nanjing also took action immediately.

However, as soon as she took action, she frowned: "These defectors are the Royal Guards of the Imperial City. The bad news is that their memories are blocked and their souls cannot be searched. This is something that every Imperial Guard has. mark of loyalty."

 It is normal for Ji Xun to think about it.

 Otherwise, if you capture an Imperial City Guard, once his soul is searched, the secret of the entire Imperial City's defense will be completely exposed.

 It is normal to have soul restrictions.

But just when Ji Xun and Chujiu felt that the clue was about to be lost, Nan Jing said again: "The good news is that I know exactly how to unlock this blockade. Because it is the unique secret technique of my Nan family. "

  This means that the only people in the entire extrdimensional space who can unlock this forbidden secret are people from the Nan family.

 “Could it be.”

When Ji Xun heard this, he suddenly felt like he could dig deeper into the hidden plot.

That thought was not strong enough, and he didn't know where it was pointing.

The extraordinary properties of these more than a hundred corpses cannot be wasted. While Nan Jing was searching for souls, he was absorbing them while also packing up the loot that could be taken out of the space.

These are the Royal Guards of the Imperial City after all, and their equipment can be said to be at the pinnacle of the era.

Whether it is mechanical equipment or spell cards, they are all produced by the royal family.

 After some searching, Ji Xun gained a lot.

Not only did he get a large number of spell cards that can bring out space, but he also got several individual black technology machines.

　level plots are inherently difficult, and it seems that this is also one of the rewards of spatial will.

 At this time, Nanjing's soul collection also came to fruition.

Ji Xun looked at her complicated expression and asked, "What's wrong?"

 In fact, he had already guessed that this soul-sealing method seemed to be deliberately set up for Nanjing.

 Only she can see the truth.

Nanjing responded: “They don't seem to be 'defectors'.”

Ji Xun and Chujiu were surprised when they heard this: "Not a defector?"

Isn't this prompted by the plot?

"Um."

Because of this, Nan Jing's expression was particularly strange: "Part of their memories have been tampered with. But in the memory box of Luo Dun's psychic, it is not like that. They defected not because of the apparent tyrant's stupidity. They killed their families because of the secret mission of my Nan family ancestors.”

 The thoughts in Ji Xun's mind became clearer and clearer: "The real reason why they defected was because of the secret mission arranged by your ancestors?"

Nan Jing looked at the corpses on the ground, his expression a little more respectful.

 Although this is a plot space, in history, these people may have sat like this before.

　　Beared in the name of defection, but did some

She added: "Yeah. Commander Luoden actually doesn't know the purpose of the mission. His previously modified memory was that my ancestor instructed them to steal the [Space Stone] and then go out of the city to build some kind of large teleportation array. It seemed to be for Leave a way out for the royal family. But judging from his thoughts before his death, the purpose of this mission is just an illusion. The real purpose is to deliver these two [space stones] to us."

"this"

Hearing this, Ji Xun instantly felt that some of the missing information puzzle pieces suddenly came together.

  It is also the most critical part!

 He understood the plan immediately!

 Originally, this group of "defectors" left the city to secretly build a teleportation array.

 This plan seems ridiculous.

 After all, the alien gods among the rebels are not that easy to fool.

 But it is actually a commonly used tactic in sieges.

Even if the rebels knew the purpose of the defectors, they would not stop them. After all, only when the Augustus royal family evacuates and the defenders lose their determination to fight to the death can Behemoth, the imperial capital that is armed to the teeth, be broken.

 There may also be a strategic game between the top leaders of both parties.

This plan is not necessarily brilliant, but no matter how you look at it, it is the most reasonable choice in the current war situation.

It is also the only plan that allows the Augustus royal family and some high-level officials to escape from the imperial city with a small probability.

However,

the fact is!

 This is the second level of the plan!

 The real purpose of the organizer behind the defection is on the fifth floor!

That Priest Nan did not plan the war situation at that time, but planned it three thousand years later!

That thought flowed through the whole body like an electric current, making Ji Xun suddenly enlightened and at the same time, his scalp instantly became numb.

In that trance, he seemed to see a mysterious person appearing in front of them, smiling and waving.

 Just like the commander who was smiling even before his death, it was a vision of the future.

At this moment, Ji Xun felt the profound meaning from the planners three thousand years ago!

These two [Space Rough Stones] are not just space plot missions, they are also gifts given to them personally by Nan Shenyu, the last high priest of Talon three thousand years ago!

 A gift left for the firebrand in Donghuang!
