Chapter 116 Weeping Angel
Two days passed in a flash.
The assassination of Young Master Kahn became more and more serious, and the hunters in the Thunder Fortress camp became more and more dissatisfied.
Now the hunters can't go back, and those hunters who came back from the ruins are also piled up in the camp, and there are more and more people.
Not only are the hunters trapped, but some special guys are trapped as well.
In the small building of Caiyun Chamber of Commerce in the camp.
A mysterious woman with a black veil on her face was standing in front of the window, looking at the crowded camp in front of her, her silver pupils like the moon shining brightly.
Behind her, there was a hunchbacked old man with a lifeless look all over his body.
Looking at the people of the Lionheart family who were still hunting in the distance, the silver-eyed woman murmured to herself: "It's a pity. It's rare for such a high-ranking noble to come to Innocence City. Originally, I wanted to take advantage of that Young Master Kahn was close to the top brass of the Lionheart Family. Unexpectedly, he was killed just after he had disguised his identity."
Hearing this, the hunchbacked old man responded in a hoarse voice: "I recently came down from Innocence City. There are more and more nobles, and there may not be no opportunities in the future.”
After a pause, he added: "The guys from Bureau "
Silver-eyed woman: "Then just kill them together. The last seal relic has just been found, and the restrictions on the four-pillar seal have been basically lifted. It doesn't matter if it is exposed now. The Weeping Angel still needs some. For soul nourishment, just sacrifice these people in the camp. Now, those people from the 'Thirteen Kamen Riders' can also help us attract the attention of the federal leaders."
The hunchbacked old man: "Yeah. .”
Ji Xun walked leisurely on the streets of the camp.
In addition to practicing and studying in the tent every day, he would also go out and walk around the tavern in the evening when there were the most people, inquiring about news.
The tavern is still the most crowded and lively place in the camp.
Ji Xun squeezed into the Hunter Tavern just like he did two days ago.
Then I sat down at the corner of the bar and ordered a glass of beer.
No new supply has been delivered in the past two days, and the price of beer has increased almost ten times.
This is no longer a luxury item that ordinary hunters can afford.
Ji Xun was sitting at the bar, drinking wine and listening to the news as usual.
What the hunters talk about the most is mostly the old news about Kahn’s assassination the day before yesterday, mixed with all kinds of gossip that is difficult to distinguish between true and false.
Ji Xun listened for a long time, and the only thing he found reliable was that it was said that people from the federal military would arrive tomorrow.
I heard that an important figure from the Lionheart family will also come.
Hunters are mostly pessimistic and resistant to this news.
After all, these high-ranking nobles are not friendly to the people at the bottom.
In order to find an assassin, Young Master Kahn killed hundreds of people for no reason.
No one knows what will happen when the Lionheart family comes.
But there is nothing we can do.
For the vast majority of hunters, their current situation is like a shipwreck stranded on an isolated island. If you really want to blindly rush into the unexplored old continent, it is like setting up a raft to go into the sea. The risk is much greater than staying in the camp.
There is also some information on land reclamation.
A group of hunters discovered several new extra-dimensional spaces deep in the ruins that no one has come out alive yet.
Some people speculate that it may be a new war mode space.
There are many and mixed messages.
Ji Xun just drank sip after sip.
Sit for nearly an hour.
After listening and listening, he originally wanted to leave after not hearing any more valuable information.
But at this moment, three people suddenly walked in at the door of the tavern.
The leader was a sturdy middle-aged man wearing a leather jacket, followed by two young men, a man and a woman.
All three of them covered their faces with kerchiefs, and the two behind them covered their bodies with deerskin cloaks.
When Ji Xun looked at these three people, he always felt that they looked familiar inexplicably.
Although these three people are also dressed in hunter attire, their temperament does not look like low-level hunters.
The three of them also walked towards the bar.
The man in the jacket waved to the bartender and said: "Three glasses of beer."
As soon as he opened his mouth, Ji Xun heard the rough voice immediately and was surprised: "Those three guys from Bureau X?"
At this moment, he finally knew where that familiar feeling came from.
Aren't these the three people who came after "Epidemic Doctor" Hessen when Innocence City wiped out the Silver Moon Sect's stronghold?
He remembers the name "Xie Guozhong" in the leather jacket?
The impression is not bad.
After all, I was able to successfully get the scalpel that time, thanks to this guy keeping his promise.
But why did they come to the ruins of Thunder Fortress?
This kind of well-organized official investigator does not need to take risks and hunt wilderness to make a living.
In an instant, Ji Xun thought of something else, and thought to himself: "They are not coming after the Silver Moon Sect, are they?"
Then his thoughts changed, and the possibility was still there Really not small.
That was it last time.
It's 80% the same this time.
And one more thing, Ji Xun also guessed that people from the Silver Moon Sect might really come to this ruins.
In the previous "Battle of Outpost" extradimensional space, the demon camp believed that the god was Arachne, the "Lord of Dreams and Joy".
This is the old god believed in by the Silver Moon Sect!
Ji Xun personally went to see the altars, statues, etc., and the ancient inheritance in that space was much more complete than the current half-baked Silver Moon Sect.
If the people of the Silver Moon Sect know this situation, it is very likely that they will come to those ancient inheritances.
And maybe it’s not just in that one space.
Ji Xun thought about this, his expression slightly strange: "Hiss, there are really people from the Silver Moon Sect looking for the inheritance of the old gods, and then these three people from the X Bureau came after them, right?"
I seem to have some incompatibility with this old-time sect.
You can meet them there.
However, he didn't think much about it.
As soon as Xie Guozhong sat down, the drinker next to him tried to sneak away.
The mushroom-headed and short-haired girl at the back stood there and skillfully stopped the guy.
Xie Guozhong chuckled and said lightly: "Old man Xu, long time no see."
The sneaky guy shook his head repeatedly and wanted to run away, "No, no. You have the wrong person. ”
Hearing this, Xie Guozhong muttered to himself: "You guys have forgotten me again."
As he said that, he smiled and said: "Don't worry. We are not from the Lion Heart family. We are Bureau The sound was not loud, but Ji Xun still heard it clearly.
“What a coincidence”
The guy who was stopped when Ji Xun was stuck turned out to be an acquaintance.
It is the "Dog King" Old Man Xu who we went to form a team with in the extra-dimensional space.
The world is so small.
Oh, no.
The campground is small to begin with.
There are only two pubs, and this guy is an old drunkard, so the probability of encountering him is quite high.
Ji Xun had noticed this guy before.
I shrink back from drinking, complaining about how expensive the wine is, and my flesh hurts after one sip, which is a bit funny.
But there were also many people who thought strangely about Hunter Qi, so Ji Xun didn’t pay much attention.
I didn’t expect that they were acquaintances.
"I actually survived."
Ji Xun recognized Old Man Xu and felt emotional.
The Dog King really deserves to be the Dog King, and being able to survive is a sign of his true ability.
But then I thought about it, if it weren't for the "crotch avoidance method" that the old man said, Ji Xun would really have difficulty avoiding those ghost monsters in space.
There is a bit of affection.
Moreover, he had been drinking for so long and was not recognized by himself.
There is something really good about this old man's disguise.
Ji Xun thought of something and narrowed his eyes slightly.
However, the subsequent dialogue cannot be heard.
“Using soundproofing?”
Ji Xun also frowned slightly.
The more mysterious these guys made it, the more he thought something might happen.
I glanced at it curiously.
For Ji Xun, who has a photographic memory, lip reading is not a difficult skill.
Even if you can't hear, lip reading can help you understand bits and pieces of what they are talking about.
"Old man, I know you are well-informed, and we want to inquire about something."
"Ah, I don't know anything. Have you found the wrong person?"
"I know that your Excellency Proficient in some secret techniques, have you noticed anything unusual about Caiyun Shop?”
“Oh, those secret techniques were all made by me after I drank too much. You three big shots don’t really believe it. ”
“It’s not in vain to ask.”
"Brother, just say what you want to know."
"."
Xie Guozhong seems to know Old Man Xu.
But Old Man Xu doesn’t seem to recognize him. Ji Xun also felt strange.
But these are not the things that need attention right now.
When he read the information, the bad feeling in his heart became stronger and stronger.
Since everyone from Bureau X has found their way here, there must be some clues.
In this current situation, are there really Silver Moon cultists in the camp?
To be honest, even if he knew that people from the Lionheart family were coming, Ji Xun didn't feel much sense of crisis.
After all, there is a lot of information and many things can be predicted.
But the Old Believers were different.
These people only gave him two words - evil!
Originally I wanted to take a few more glances and hear what else they talked about.
Unexpectedly, Xie Guozhong seemed to be aware of it. The corners of his eyes twitched slightly and he raised his eyes.
Ji Xun observed these details and quickly closed his eyes, thinking: "What a strong perception."
Xie Guozhong and the other two seemed not to be interested in paying attention to others, and continued to ask questions, their expressions becoming more and more serious.
You will notice it if you keep reading.
Ji Xun was not prepared to stay in the tavern any longer.
Encountering these people, Ji Xun suddenly smelled a hint of crisis.
He wanted to leave as soon as possible.
At least, stay away from Xie Guozhong and the others.
However, the change came very suddenly.
Just when Ji Xungang stood up and was about to leave.
Something unexpected happened.
The butterfly door opened, and a hunchbacked old man slowly walked into the tavern carrying a black cross as tall as a person.
This figure looked like he had crawled out of a grave, with a strong aura of death exuding from his whole body.
The cross has been dragged on the wooden board, making a scraping sound from time to time.
It was this voice that sent hair down people’s spines, making the entire tavern seem to have pressed the mute button.
The originally bustling tavern suddenly became silent.
Because
As soon as the hunchbacked old man came in.
Everyone felt the feeling of being watched by the God of Death, like falling into an ice cave.
In my ears, I could still clearly hear the ancient and profound sacrificial words chanted by the hunchbacked weirdo.
"Rejoice in the wails of pain, rejoice in the splattering of blood
Wandering among the shadows of tombs
Hungry for blood, giving fear to mortals
Joy, dreams, the moon with a thousand faces
Beholding with joy the sacrifices of your devout followers
Even when this person entered the tavern, he had just finished reciting the spell.
It seems as if some magical ritual has begun.
When Ji Xun heard the spell that sounded like a demon whispering, he suddenly felt something was wrong.
The clown mask was instantly put on his face.
Looking at the cross with dark golden blood, his pupils shrank suddenly: "Not good!"
[Relic·Light and Dark Cross]
Detailed explanation: Level III ancient relic; sacred +9, curse +9; binds the target, and can seal soul fluctuations that are not higher than the legal level of the relic itself; this is an ancient artifact A torture instrument that has imprisoned the soul of an indescribable being. It is a rare sealing artifact that is both good and evil in the world; it is soaked in divine blood and has strong light and dark pollution properties;
The attributes of this cross are related to his hand The [Sacred Nail of Light and Darkness] in it comes from the same source, and even the enlightened content is almost exactly the same.
After one glance, Ji Xun was sure that the weird man carrying the cross in front of him was a believer of the Silver Moon Sect!
Thinking about it this way, and looking at that iconic hunchback, isn’t he the wanted senior deacon of the Silver Moon Sect, Old Man Duan?
Looking at this posture, it is obvious that the person who came here is evil.
And the hostility is not directed at himself, but at Xie Guozhong and the others!
Dare to come in so arrogantly carrying a cross, this guy is obviously determined to kill.
And he is sure to kill!
In a battle of this level, it would not be good to be affected.
Ji Xun will not wait for the other party to make a move.
Almost as soon as he put on the mask, he stepped on the stool and rushed out towards the back door without caring what others thought.
As soon as he ran away, the people in the tavern were stunned for a few breaths, then they realized and scrambled to escape from the tavern.
In the blink of an eye, the tavern that was packed just now was filled with people.
But there are still some people who don’t understand the situation and watch the excitement from a distance.
Naturally, Xie Guozhong and the others had discovered it a long time ago.
But there was no fear in their eyes and they sat there steadily.
Since it’s them we’re looking for.
Of course they will not retreat.
On the contrary, I think it’s just right, saving me the trouble of finding those people.
There was just a hint of doubt in his eyes.
These guys from the Silver Moon Sect no longer hide, but they actually dare to show themselves in front of them?
The hunchbacked weirdo didn't pay attention to the others. There was only an evil and cold smile on his old face.
A black nine-pointed star formation has appeared under his feet. The chant has been completed, and he finally shouted softly: "Necromantic Technique·Disaster of the Undead!"
In an instant, it was as if the gate of hell had been opened. , the death energy burst out from the nine-pointed star formation under his feet.
Seeing this, the expressions of Xie Guozhong and the other three people not far away changed suddenly.
Ji Xun jumped out of the back door of the tavern without looking back, wanting to stay away from the battlefield.
His original plan was to go outside the camp first and see the situation from a distance.
However, he still underestimated the ruthlessness of those in the Silver Moon Sect.
Almost the moment he jumped out of the tavern, a bright white moon appeared in the sky.
Then the entire camp ground lit up with black magic runes, and an unknown-wide necromantic barrier instantly covered the entire camp.
Everywhere you look is filled with a gray air of death.
Seeing this scene, he immediately knew that he wanted to be simple.
The hunchbacked old man just now was not just targeting Xie Guozhong and the others.
But everyone in the entire camp!
Ji Xun quickly ran to the entrance of the camp and took a look, his expression changed.
The wilderness where the outline of the mountain could still be clearly seen was now pitch black, and the shadows of some huge monsters could still be vaguely seen.
He had a bad premonition in his heart: "Those guys are not going to do some evil ritual and sacrifice the entire camp, are they?"
His intuition told him that it was very likely. .
But now Ji Xun is in a dilemma. Leaving the camp is definitely not a good choice, and not going out doesn't look good either.
Others in the camp haven't understood what happened, and everyone is watching the moon phenomenon in the sky on the street.
At this time, the dog king, old man Xu, ran over with a strange cry: "Second boy, come out quickly and run~ It's over, it's over, it's over."
Hearing the cry, no. From the tent in the distance, a young man with a thin sword on his waist rushed out quickly.
Before Ji Xun could figure out what happened, something strange happened again!
Looking up, a terrifying spiral black hole suddenly appeared in the sky of the camp.
"You're not going to summon the bone dragon again, are you?"
Ji Xun's eyelids twitched as he watched.
He has seen this psychic technique before.
In Innocence City, this happened once when the Silver Moon Sect went to the auction house to rob the "Moon".
But that time was in Innocence City, where there were many masters.
The Silver Moon Sect was beaten like rats crossing the street.
Right now, this is a wild camp in the Old World!
Except for Xie Guozhong and the three people whose strength is unknown, he doesn't think anyone else has the ability to solve this trouble.
However, Ji Xun still underestimated.
These guys are not trying to summon some bone dragon, but something more terrifying.
The moment the black hole appeared in the sky, an indescribable aura suddenly descended, overwhelming the entire camp.
Ji Xun was no longer unfamiliar with this feeling, and thought to himself: "Higher creatures?"
When he met the Red Baron in space before, he was also under such pressure.
However, this time the pressure is even more intense!
Looking again, a lifeless figure slowly appeared in the black hole.
However, when Ji Xun could clearly see the pair of huge wings spread out on the figure's back, his pupils kept trembling and he murmured to himself: "No way."
This time he summoned no bone dragon.
But something more terrifying.
In the black hole, an angel slowly appeared!
An angel with a bandage covering his face, gray wings on his back, and a deathly aura all over his body, but the deathly aura also exudes holy light!
Ji Xun watched as his eyelids twitched: "This kind of existence can also be psychic?"
Guys from the Silver Moon Sect, it's okay to tinker with underworld stuff all day long.
Is it necessary to bring out this mythical existence?
