Cataclysm King Chapter 165

Chapter 165 If you die, I will send you flowers every year

 A bottomless pit suddenly sank into the central area of ​​the city ruins.

Immediately, like a volcano erupting, violent dark energy spewed out, reaching the ceiling of the cave.

　　Not only was the black turbidity so rich that it was visible to the naked eye, but countless monsters also spewed out.

 Zombies fell to the ground, and ghosts floated in the air.

  A wave of indescribable terror swept across him instantly.

The movement was so loud that the entire city ruins trembled.

 It didn't stop for quite a while.

Ji Xun was not surprised when he looked at it, but his eyes were filled with luster.

 At the previous gathering in the broken building, Leader Yinyue did not avoid him in anything he did.

Ji Xun also guessed some reasons.

What those Old Believers have to do is to open another seal related to the ancient **** Arachne, the Lord of Dreams and Pleasure.

Although Ji Xun didn't know what those people had arranged in advance in this ruins.

 But later, when he saw the unusual behavior of the leader of Silver Moon who kept fighting despite being able to escape, Ji Xun guessed that she must have something up her sleeve.

 Later, after watching the great sun fire and bright white moonlight causing a large number of deaths in the Lion City, Ji Xun had basically confirmed that this was most likely a sacrifice.

The Silver Moon Sect's method of communicating with gods is “flesh and blood sacrifice.”

Thinking of this, the attack on the high-level gathering of the Silver Moon Sect may not be entirely an "accident."

Ji Xun thought again that he had helped the leader of Silver Moon to successfully approach Young Master Kake of the Lionheart family.

 I don't know what the woman did.

 But it must have been something.

 In addition to being a "double undercover" himself, the Silver Moon Sect must also have other sources of intelligence.

The leader of Silver Moon may not be unaware of today's siege.

Of course, the most important thing is the "angel feather" stolen from the Lionheart Family Reception.

 When Ji Xun held it, there was always a vague echo, as if something was somewhere in the ruins of the city.

However, it doesn't matter what kind of sacrifice or altar it is to Ji Xun.

 He can't stop it.

　　Not interested either.

 On the contrary, the fights just now were very enjoyable.

 Now, the fight is over.

Ji Xun looked at the dark energy spurting out from the center of the ruins in the distance, with an expression of interest in his eyes.

A strong sense of conspiracy came over me.

Such a big movement, think about it, it will definitely be very lively later.

However, the situation is unclear now, and it is not the time to intervene.

Ji Xun glanced at the famous detective Robin in front of him, nodded and left, expressing his respect for a worthy opponent.

The corner of my eye glanced at Xie Guozhong again, but said nothing.

 He knew that this old friend was here to save him.

 But now is not the time to say more.

Not to mention that he also killed several X Bureau field agents.

As for the third-level thief with a broken arm, Ji Xun had no interest at all.

 I wanted to kill him before.

 But now there is no fun at all.

Ji Xun sniffed, chose a direction, turned around and left the scene of the battle.

Xie Guozhong looked at his back with complicated eyes and said nothing.

Instead, he turned his eyes and looked at the soaring black energy in the center of the city, his expression full of solemnity.

 Obviously, Bureau X's hasty closing of the network this time has caused a big mess.

And there are also some problems with the intelligence system.

Concerning the information about this closing of the network, his assistant Awen did leak a lot of information, but she was definitely not the only one.

The Lionheart Family and the remnants of the Oran Dynasty also seemed to have played a disgraceful role in this incident.

 For a time, Xie Guozhong thought of a lot.

Ji Xun walked on the dark ruined streets.

 After turning a few streets, in the corner here, there is a mechanic who has been waiting for a long time.

Dong Qi looked at Ji Xun who was walking back safely, with a look of relief on his pretty face, and asked, "Are you okay?"

Ji Xun looked at her and smiled, "When did you come?"

 He had guessed that there might be trouble when he attended the dance before.

 Arranged for Miss Qiqi to hide in the city and not show her face.

 But when he smelled a familiar scent before, Ji Xun knew that she must be worried and came to find her.

Dong Qi responded calmly: "I will be here when you are dueling with the detective with the black umbrella."

As she said that, she looked at Ji Xun's head and saw that there was a large patch of white hair on his head. Her eyes dimmed and she said in a small voice, "I'm sorry, I can't always be of much help."

 In the level of fighting just now, she saw Ji Xun on the verge of death several times, and she obviously wanted to help.

 But she knew that once she took action, instead of being of help, she would become a burden.

The feeling of powerlessness limited by her strength made her feel very depressed at the moment.

Ji Xun raised the corner of his mouth slightly when he heard it, and said indifferently: "I'm sorry for whatever reason. This is my choice."

Dong Qi knew it even though he heard it.

 But the feeling of powerlessness is like drowning. The water submerges oneself again and again, and it is completely useless to struggle.

She thought, if she were as strong as Aunt Qin, she should be able to deal with this situation calmly, right?

 I am really too weak.

Ji Xun looked at Miss Qiqi's unhappy look and guessed what she was thinking.

He put his arm around her shoulders and patted her, just like she usually did, "Let's go, it's not safe here. Let's go back to the city first."

Physical touch makes people feel like they are really alive.

rather than hallucination.

Dong Qi felt slightly at ease: "Oh."

 The two of them walked side by side in silence.

 No one spoke for a moment.

very quiet.

The streets of this ruined city thousands of years ago are full of cracks, and the mechanical armor will make a cracking sound when it steps on the gravel.

 There is a sense of desolation and desolation everywhere in the city.

 The more no one talks, the clearer the thoughts become.

Suddenly, Dong Qi thought of something and turned to stare at Ji Xun. There was a lot of complexity in those crystal eyes, and he hesitated to speak.

Ji Xun saw what she wanted to say, smiled and asked proactively: "What's wrong?"

"I"

Hearing the inquiry, Dong Qixiang finally plucked up the courage and said solemnly: "Ji Xun. I have carefully considered your suggestion and I plan to go to the Federal Mechanical Warfare College."

Ji Xun listened, thought for a moment, his eyes were deep, and he responded: "Oh."

 He turned to look at Miss Qiqi, and then smiled: "Very good."

  The main improvement in a mechanic's combat power comes from the improvement of knowledge and mechanical equipment.

 At least not now if you want to take risks.

Dong Qi mustered up the courage to say this, and the darkness cleverly hid her suddenly slightly red eyes.

Another meaning of this sentence is that it is actually saying goodbye.

 In fact, my father gave himself this advice a long time ago.

 But she refused.

At that time, she felt that the college life of an upper-class young lady and young master was not suitable for her, nor was it the kind of wanton and carefree life she wanted to pursue.

 Until the recent collapse of Hong Tower, Zaiyou and Ji Xun encountered many crises.

She discovered that some things require not only faith, but also strength to grasp firmly.

In just half a month, Dong Qi's state of mind has experienced too many changes.

 She has gained the consciousness to face death calmly, but she cannot face her own regretful death because of her weakness.

 Or watching a friend die.

Like it happened many times just now.

The two of them would not shy away from talking about this. Ji Xun could completely empathize with Dong Qi's current state of mind.

 He said nothing, just patted her shoulder. The two of them walked in the darkness.

 Both of them understand.

After walking for a while, Dong Qi suddenly called his name when he thought of something: "Ji Xun."

Ji Xun turned his head and glanced: "What's wrong?"

Hearing the inquiry, Dong Qi pondered for a moment, and then said: "You have to live well. When I become strong enough, I will come to you."

Hearing this, Ji Xun smiled brightly.

 But did not answer.

 He could not give an accurate answer to this question.

Dong Qi looked dim when he heard him say nothing. In fact, he had already received an answer.

In Sinless City, we have seen too many life, separation and death.

This kind of expectation is inherently extravagant.

 I am afraid that this farewell will be an eternal farewell.

Dong Qi knew that there were some things that she couldn't grasp, and she didn't want to think about those useless thoughts. She turned to say: "If one day, you are really going to die. Please be sure to give me a letter and tell me where you want to be buried. Where. That way. I will send you a bouquet of flowers every year from now on."

This time, Ji Xun did not avoid it, but smiled brighter and agreed happily: "Okay!"

After Dong Qi finished speaking, he fell silent.

 The ruins were filled with thick fog, which felt cool on the face.

 Slightly moist.

　　It was not clear whether there were tears on that pretty face.

while walking.

Ji Xun looked at the increasingly dense aura of undead filling the air, a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes, and thought to himself: "This is a great benefit to the hunchbacked old man's 'natural disaster of the undead'"

 It was only then that he realized that the people of the Silver Moon Sect had been prepared.

After the seal was broken, a large amount of dark energy was released, which was also mixed with a large amount of necromantic energy and monsters.

 The only thing that is known now is that what is sealed underground in this ruins is a certain fragment of the Weeping Angel's body.

Ji Xun could not imagine how much trouble that kind of existence would cause after death.

It was like a tomb that had been sealed underground for thousands of years exploded, exposing the dusty history and the troubles left behind.

 No one knows how many terrifying monsters are stored inside.

 But now, at first glance, the people of the Silver Moon Sect seemed to have expected it.

With the blessing of the hunchbacked old man's divine power, [Undead Natural Disaster], these undead auras and monsters are just the best supplies.

 “Tsk, things seem to be very complicated.”

Ji Xun raised his eyebrows.

After the seal is broken this time, it can be seen with the naked eye that the strength of the hunchbacked old man will skyrocket.

Thought of something, he muttered in his heart: "It seems that those guys in Bureau X have also been taken advantage of."

Ji Xun was a little surprised to be suddenly surrounded by Bureau X before.

 But now that the situation has been roughly clear, people have come to the conclusion that X game may be someone's "thug".

Looking back, I found that my information may have been leaked from someone close to Xie Guozhong.

But the clues about the siege and suppression of the Silver Moon Sect's gathering definitely did not come from the exposure of their own line.

 At least not entirely.

　　People from Bureau

To achieve this level, someone from the top of the Lion Heart Family must be involved, perhaps there are also followers of the Cao Family who have not been eliminated before, or there may be some other conspirators.

But this also played into the hands of the leader of Silver Moon.

 It's hard to tell who actually fell into the trap.

  It's more like multiple forces are secretly competing, all with the same purpose: to open this ancient seal.

 As for what motives each has.

Then you have to look at the back.

 For a time, Ji Xun thought of a lot.

 But now is not the time to think about this. The entire ruins are probably only slightly safer in the Lion City.

 Suddenly sensing the approaching crisis, he pulled Dong Qi and ran quickly: "Let's go back quickly!"

As early as the fierce battle between the Silver Moon Sect and the masters of the X Bureau, this battle attracted the attention of countless people from all parties in the Lion City.

Just when the bottomless pit exploded in the center of the ruins, in the city, in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows on the top floor of the Golden Oak Security Company branch.

A silver-haired young man wearing a crown showed a satisfied smile and said to himself: "Originally, I wanted to use the Lionheart family's manpower and material resources to unearth the seal. I didn't expect people like the Silver Moon Sect to find it in one go using Shinto secret methods. The location of the seal is also good, saving us a lot of trouble. I am bound to get that piece of angel remains."

With this said, an old man in a tuxedo on the side said respectfully: "Your Majesty, [Divinity: Terror Nightmare] has been prepared. The sound of the seal being broken can cover up the traces of the spell. Do you want to release it?"

The silver-haired young man smiled conceitedly and said: "Just follow the plan."

 The old man nodded: "Yes, Your Majesty."

Not long after this order was sent out, a group of mysterious people who had been preparing for a long time in several hunter camps outside the city started taking action at the same time.

 One by one the palace relics were taken out, and a super large formation that almost covered the entire ruins was secretly activated.

 In the Lion City, the Golden Oak Company building in the center of the formation was suddenly surrounded by black energy.

This kind of magical level spell is completely invisible to outsiders, and they may think it is an energy shield to resist the tide of monsters.

 Unknown to everyone, fear has spread in this new city.

In the bodies of almost everyone in the city, a fearful spiritual energy that could not be seen with the naked eye also flowed out, and then gathered in the building.

 Finally, all the energy was concentrated on the dark coffin on the top floor.

The silver-haired young man greedily absorbed the wisps of fear power, and a black and red card appeared in his palm.

 The card is printed with a picture of a king wearing a crown, and there is a K of Spades symbol in the corner.

This is the epic demon mark that has been passed down by the Oran Dynasty—[K of Spades-Tyrant].

The conditions for such high-sequence epic cards to be integrated are very, very strict.

Even if the bloodline of the Augustus royal family has a high degree of compatibility with the royal power itself, only a handful of kings have been able to integrate it on their own.

  But as a royal family with endless heritage, they have some special secrets to assist in integrating this mark.

 The current secret art of the royal way is the "World of Horror", one of the fifty-two forbidden arts of the devil.

 The understanding of laws required for the path to royal power comes from the subjects' fear of the king!

 But the prerequisite is a large population.

 Feeling the demonic power in the source card pour into his body, the smile on the silver-haired young man's face became more and more exaggerated.

He clearly felt the superiority and control over lower creatures, and murmured unconsciously: "This is the law of kingship. Tsk tsk. Without the new city established by the Lionheart family, I think it would be much better to integrate this demon mark. It will take many years."

 Originally I wanted to use it in the Royal Court, but now there are better options.

 The Lion City has also become lively.

The fire and moonlight from the previous battle also affected the new city, causing heavy casualties.

 The battle was over, and a wretched old man with missing front teeth and a young swordsman with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes crawled out of a cellar.

As he walked, the old man didn't know what he sensed. He looked at the headquarters building of the Golden Oak Security Company in the city and muttered in an uncertain tone: "Afraid of pollution? Oops, why does it feel like this? This seems to be some ancient spell." Woolen cloth"

Hearing this, the young Che Er looked at the black gas gushing outside the city and asked: "Grandpa, it seems something big has happened. Do we want to stay here now? If we want to leave, the train that left recently is still there. There's an hour.”

I originally thought that my grandfather, who always avoided danger, would say "leave quickly", but this time old man Xu shook his head and said, "I'm not leaving."

 Che Er cast a doubtful look: "Huh?"

 Old man Xu didn't seem to understand it himself, but his turbid eyes were full of depth and he said, "I feel like I'm about to find what I'm looking for."

 Che Er frowned when he heard this, and then blinked curiously: "Oh?"

 The two of them were walking on the street.

 Without any further thought, we arrived at the Hunters' Guild.

 There are a lot of hunters here.

Now everyone wants to know what happened outside the city.

The occurrence of such anomalies in such ancient ruins is not dangerous, but according to experience, there must be a "treasure".

 It's a coincidence.

At this moment, a hunter suddenly rushed over and shouted excitedly: "Wow, there are so many undead monsters outside the city! Kill those monsters, and there will be [dark matter crystals] in the corpses! The major chambers of commerce have already issued high prices. According to the acquisition list, a first-level crystal is worth at least 3,000! The second-level crystal is worth 30,000, and the third-level is over 300,000."

 “Hahaha, there are so many zombies outside the city, now I'm getting rich!”

 For hunters who risk their lives, danger may be the main reason for them to hold back.

 But if there is money to be made, countless people will move forward bravely.

 For a time, the Lion City immediately became excited.

   Sorry, it's only 4K again. It's not about the story. There seems to be something wrong with my mentality. I am still very emo even after a day of rest. I'm thinking about seeing a doctor.
