Chapter 185 Sonata of Death
"Miss Carter, it seems that we are not very lucky. This is what happened when we encountered a third-level disaster. If this continues, we may not be able to return to the Lion City alive. It’s difficult.”
“Oh, don’t look at me like that. I’ve been very lucky since I was a kid. Look for the reasons behind me.”
“How about you? Leave first? Your injuries are lighter than mine, and it might be safer without me dragging you down."
"You want to hear that if I leave, you will definitely die. You have helped me, and I will not give up on you. '; Or do you want to hear 'My fate is entangled with you now, and I have a chance to survive if I cooperate'? ”
"Hahaha, I choose the first one. Pfft."
"."
Ji Xungang wanted to laugh, but when he couldn't hold it back, a mouthful of old blood spurted out.
City ruins, under the broken wall of a broken building.
The two embarrassed figures have been hiding for a long time.
Chatting a few words can be regarded as joy in suffering.
Originally, both of them had a smooth journey.
But I don’t know why, but suddenly there were a lot of fighting sounds in the ruins of the city.
Ji Xun and the two were not stupid, and they guessed that those people were here to find them.
So the two of them walked all the way to a place where there was no one.
But those inaccessible places often mean danger.
I just had bad luck and encountered a group of monsters.
There is also a third-level zombie that breeds disaster.
Originally, that kind of monster posed little threat to either of them, but unfortunately both of them were seriously injured.
Being chased by monsters all the way, after finally killing the disaster, the two of them were injured like this.
Catalina could barely walk.
Ji Xun didn't know what went wrong in the battle just now. He had no feeling in his lower body and was almost paralyzed.
If there is another battle like this, the two of them may have to confess on the spot.
The footsteps of monsters around them were still very dense, and they did not dare to go out, so they took the time to heal their wounds.
Katrina wrapped the injury on her arm with gauze, then looked at Ji Xun, who was completely supported by mechanical skeletons, and said: "Your injury is very serious. If it is not treated in time, I’m afraid it will be bad.”
Ji Xun corrected her statement with a smile and said: "It won't be bad. But you will definitely die."
He is now considered "proficient in advanced medical knowledge" and knows his situation very well. .
Not to mention trauma.
If the abnormal energy in the body is not eliminated, it always feels like dancing in front of death, and will be taken away by a scythe at any time.
But there is no way he can eliminate it now.
The potion in hand is completely useless.
The only way he could think of was "Cell Activity Boiling".
But this secret method is the legendary fifty-two demon gods’ forbidden arts.
But it was the second-level "epidemic doctor" Heisen who understood it from the copper plate. The level of the law was too low.
It doesn’t solve the problem at all.
And the biggest threat now is not monsters, but every human in the ruins.
The optimistic tone of Ji Xun's words was as if he was not the one who was going to die, and Catalina's expression was slightly different after hearing this.
But her own condition is not good either.
A gold coin flipped at her fingertips, and her expression became more and more solemn.
As a result of sharing the same adversity, Catalina did not shy away from the family treasure [Gold Coin of Destiny] passed down to her by her grandfather.
Ji Xun had seen this rare level five relic before.
But I was worried about privacy and never asked.
Looking at Catalina's expression so serious now, thinking that it didn't matter, he casually asked: "What's wrong, the divination gave a very bad result?"
Carter Lina shook her head, with a deep look in her crystal eyes, and said in an uncertain tone: "The situation is quite bad. But it seems that my destiny has been interfered with by something. I can't predict the future."
< br>This is a situation she has never encountered before.
Before changing, the simple choice of using this gold coin to predict bad luck should have a general direction no matter what.
But now it's blurry.
It seems that there is some kind of mysterious force interfering.
It gives people the feeling that there is a big hand covering the top of the head, and nothing in the future can be seen clearly.
Originally thinking about forgetting it, Catalina's mind changed and she suddenly looked at Ji Xun, "How about you help me try?"
Ji Xun was also very interested when he heard this: "Can I still try this?"
Katrina nodded: "Yes. Sometimes divination will be more accurate if someone else's luck is added to the fortune telling. What's more, we are cooperating now. Relationship, luck."
As she said that, she handed over the fate gold coin and said, "Just throw it. The head is 'good' and the word means 'unlucky'."< br>
“Okay.”
Ji Xun didn’t hesitate to listen and threw the gold coin casually.
The gold coin rolled in the air with a sweet and crisp sound, and then fell into the hand with a snap.
It is the "word" side.
Seeing this result, neither of them were surprised.
In this situation, it would be strange to have a "good" fortune in divination.
However, Catalina just wanted to take back the gold coins.
Suddenly, something strange happened!
The gold coin that had already fallen flat in Ji Xun's palm trembled strangely.
Then
under the surprised gazes of the two people, it stood up strangely!
“???”
When Catalina saw this scene, her blue pupils shrank suddenly.
She looked at the raised gold coin in disbelief and was stunned for two seconds.
Then she looked up at Ji Xun again.
In an instant, it seemed as if the color of the world had changed from color to gray.
The tremendous pressure of approaching death made her breathe heavily.
When their eyes touched, Ji Xun vaguely guessed something from her trembling pupils, but still asked calmly: "What does this mean?"
Katrina pondered for a moment, and only uttered two words: "Extremely sinister appearance."
Ji Xun narrowed his eyes slightly as he listened.
He had never seen such a serious and heavy expression on the face of the eldest lady of the Lionheart family.
After pondering for a while, he confirmed: "What does 'extremely evil knowing appearance' mean?"
There was no emotion in Catalina's tone, and she changed her words: "Death is certain."
Ji Xun's expression only froze for a moment, as if he accepted the result immediately.
There was no worry on his face, and he just asked in a joking tone: "Will it not work?"
Katerina shook her head and said softly: "This This gold coin was given to me by the ancestor of the Lion Heart family two hundred years ago."
Hearing this, Ji Xun also realized the seriousness of the problem: "Oh."
The one given by Old Man Xu is most likely accurate.
Just?
Katrina was still thinking about where this dead end would come from.
But listening to Ji Xun Yun Danfengqing's response, she suddenly thought of something else, turned around and asked, "How do I find out that you don't seem to be afraid at any time?"< br>
It’s a dead end now!
Dead end, understand? !
Life will be like a vase, it will break into pieces.
Never again.
Ji Xun looked at her as if she had been curious for a long time, smiled, and expressed his inner thoughts, "Since it is a dead end, I am thinking about how I will die in this world."
As he spoke, he seemed to have imagined some scene, "I hope there will be a gorgeous and wonderful curtain call."
Catalina frowned when she heard this, feeling that this answer was a bit ridiculous: "Aren't you afraid at all?"
There is no unpredictable Senior Xu now, and he doesn't carry anything to protect his life. All are enemies.
She herself has no hope of resolving this situation.
The same is true for Ji Xun.
[The Straw Man] cards have been consumed, and the Weeping Angel has also been taken away. He is still seriously injured, and he can't be in a worse state than now.
But Ji Xun was still calm and asked: "What are you afraid of? Are you afraid that you will lose your life?"
Thinking about it, he shook his head, with an indifferent chuckle hanging on the corner of his mouth, and said: "If you have no choice I will try my best to find some happiness at the end of my life."
A man and a woman alone, in the dark ruins of the city, this environment will always make people's thoughts wander.
Hearing this, Catalina obviously misunderstood his extravagant words, and glanced at him strangely: What do you want to do?
“Haha.”
Ji Xun did not explain the misunderstanding of the lion-hearted lady. Instead, he raised the corners of his mouth slightly and looked at her with a playful expression.
Looking at his expression, Catalina knew that she was overthinking.
But it is this kind of freedom in the face of death that seems to be contagious, and the anxious mood just now calms down a lot.
It seemed that from this moment on, she felt that she really knew the guy in front of her.
After the worst result came out from the divination, the two of them became more and more calm.
Ji Xun also had to admit that Catalina was a very good chat partner.
The knowledge and knowledge of ladies from top aristocratic families are among the best in the world.
Occasionally chat a few words, talk about life, ideals, poetry, art, and the meaning of life. She can also express some of her own opinions.
This kind of small talk without any probing purpose made both of them very happy.
But this broken building is an area densely populated with monsters, so you cannot stay there for a long time. After taking a short rest and stabilizing their injuries, the two were ready to leave.
Katerina looked at his limp legs and asked, "Can you still walk?"
Ji Xun tried, then shook his head.
There is some feeling in his legs, but not enough to control the mechanical skeleton to let him stand up.
Before he could say anything, Catalina pursed her lips.
He hesitated for a moment, as if he was having some kind of ideological struggle.
Then she leaned down and began to help disassemble the mechanical exoskeleton, and at the same time said: "Come up, I will carry you."
Ji Xun was not pretentious at all, and grinned: " Okay.”
It’s rare for such a noble lady to lower her body and carry someone.
Katerina rolled her eyes at him.
After dismantling the mechanical skeleton, she squatted and carried Ji Xun on her back.
But their movements were very unfamiliar. When they climbed out of the broken wall, they almost fell on the ruins.
Ji Xun took advantage of this and joked: "I'm going to fall."
Katerina ignored it and didn't even turn her face to let anyone see her expression, and said quietly: "You should be content with yourself. I have never betrayed anyone since I was a child. You are still the first."
The corners of Ji Xun's lips raised slightly: "No wonder."
The first time he climbed on a woman, he looked at himself like such a useless person, and his smile was more self-deprecating.
But it seems that at this moment, I understand a little bit.
I understand why the mysterious man seriously injured himself.
Katrina walked through the ruins carrying Ji Xun.
However, this area is already densely populated with monsters, and Ji Xun's "luck gambler" aura never counts on good luck.
Not long after leaving, they encountered another wave of monsters.
What's worse is that the news of fighting monsters finally attracted people who were looking for them in the city.
After a while, the battle was over.
But the trouble has just begun.
There were five corpses on the ground.
There was a blood hole running through the forehead of the corpse.
This is an elite reconnaissance team, all card masters of the first and second level assassins.
Although Ji Xun and Katarina were seriously injured, they easily eliminated the team.
However, Catalina looked at the equipment of the corpse on the ground with an extremely serious expression, and said: "Now it's troublesome. This is the professional investigation team of my Lionheart family's 'Wolf Hunter Legion'. Usually the first 2, The formation of 3 and 2. In other words, they found us and the news was sent back.
Ji Xun looked helpless.
This formation is to prevent the investigation team from being wiped out in one fell swoop.
He had tried his best to resolve the battle just now, but he still let people run away.
The execution capabilities of the professional reconnaissance corps and the idle hunters are completely different.
They appeared in the ruins, which means that the ruins have already been laid out in a grid shape, and there are investigation teams everywhere.
It was perfectly normal to be discovered.
Katerina was very aware of the combat effectiveness of her legion, and added: "The appearance of this elite reconnaissance team in the ruins must be because someone in the city has launched an emergency war mobilization. My uncles and brothers, I am afraid that at this moment They have mobilized all the forces they can to prevent me from returning to the city alive."
Ji Xun looked unconcerned as there were too many enemies to suppress him.
Katrina thought for a moment and then said: "The only good news is that not many methods were exposed just now. The top leaders of the legion are not sure that it must be us, and they may not come to the top masters at the first time."< br>
As she spoke, she sighed slightly: "Let's go, the first wave of pursuers will come soon. Once we are delayed, we will be in big trouble."
Ji Xun nodded: "Yeah."
The two of them didn't complain about anything.
After all, I have already been mentally prepared.
Now that the position is exposed, we can only try to see if we can rush out before being surrounded again.
But the truth is as bad as the divination situation.
After all, Catalina is a card master of the magic system, and she is injured and cannot run fast.
The two of them didn't run long before they found themselves being hung up by a scout behind them.
Those guys had no intention of taking action, so they just kept hanging from afar.
When Ji Xun was in his prime, he could be killed easily, but now he is completely helpless.
It didn’t take long for one to become several.
Their movements were locked by this well-trained army, and there was no trace of Ji Xun and the two men hiding anything.
It didn’t take long before a team of hundreds of people stopped them.
The dim streets were filled with thick fog.
The two parties faced each other on the dilapidated streets.
There are people in front and behind.
Two lonely guys were stuck in the middle.
Ji Xun's face was pale and he was lying on Catalina's back.
He looked at the guys not far away who were not wearing the military uniforms of the Lionheart family, but whose eyes were as sharp as blades, with playful expressions.
The professional legion really didn’t give them a chance.
Surrounded very decisively.
There is no escape.
Katerina's expression was equally calm.
She looked at the leader opposite, lifted her gas mask, revealing her golden hair and beautiful face, and said coldly: "Lieutenant Colonel Burton, why don't you recognize me? "
Although everyone on the other side was wearing gas masks, Catalina knew every senior general of the Lionheart family and knew them by name.
She recognized this elite retainer of her eldest brother's family at a glance.
Hearing this, hundreds of people across the street fell silent.
The lieutenant colonel named Bolton naturally did not dare to answer.
You can still fool him by pretending to be stupid, but if word spreads that retainers are ambushing high-ranking nobles, no one can protect him.
Although the order was given, no one dared to be the first to hurt the lion-hearted "Silver Mist Rose" in front of him who never dared to offend!
The situation immediately came to a deadlock.
On the cold street, hundreds of black guns were aimed at the two people, and the murderous intention seemed to be real.
In front of me, there is a high probability that it is the dead end of divination.
But even so.
The expressions of the two people were still extremely calm.
At this time, Ji Xun said calmly: "Let me down."
Catalina also knew what he meant and slowly let go.
If you wait any longer, there will be more and more enemies, which will become more and more disadvantageous for the two of them.
If you start now, you may still have a slight advantage.
The only good news is that, as they expected, no top powerhouse has arrived yet.
But the bad news is that this Bolton is level four.
Catalina put Ji Xun down and immediately made a decision, saying: "I'm going to use that magic mystery."
Ji Xun knew what she was referring to. She had done it before in the secret realm. I talked about the magic mysticism, the desperate method of trading souls with the devil.
Using it will almost kill you.
Although he knew that the young lady had made up her mind, he smiled and finally said: "If you are captured alive by these people, you may not necessarily die."
Listen At this point, Catalina had a look of disdain on her face, raised her slender neck slightly, and said proudly and calmly: "I have been accompanied by flowers all the way through my life, and it will still be the same on this last journey."
As soon as she said these words, an inexplicable domineering air suddenly appeared in her body.
Ji Xun felt inexplicably familiar, as if he saw the figure sitting on the highest seat of the federation in a dream in that ghost building.
She stood at the top of power, looking down at the world in her eyes.
The next moment, I just heard her murmuring to herself in a domineering manner: "I told you that I am not a caged bird!"
At the end of her life, she seemed to suddenly bloom with a dazzling light. .
Like fireworks rising into the sky in the dark night, brilliant and beautiful.
At the last moment of her life, she did not choose to wither and decay, but bloomed into the most gorgeous flower.
Ji Xun's eyes reflected the golden-haired back, and he suddenly grinned, his eyes gradually becoming ferocious and crazy.
The next moment, Catalina's crystal eyes were already filled with coldness, and she shouted softly: "Devil!"
Looking again, the demon behind her was more solid than before in the secret realm. The phantom of the demon god is clearly visible.
An indescribable aura swept across the entire cold street in an instant.
At the same time, the musical note curse mark emerging on her skin changed from white to brilliant gold.
At this moment, she was like a rose in full bloom, beautiful and enchanting.
Katrina was lifted up by a strange sound wave and slowly floated in the air. Her robes rustled, and her aura became higher and higher.
It was so high that it was as if the will of the devil had descended on this world.
Almost instantly, the half-human, half-fish-tailed demon shadow behind her seemed to come to life, and his slender fingers gently played the harp in his hand.
In an instant, an underworld sound sounded like it came from the underworld.
Katerina's aura has reached an almost ethereal level, as if she is hearing a soft chant: "The Demon God's Forbidden Art, The Thirteen Death Sonatas of Themir."
This As soon as the technique was concentrated, the expression of the fourth-level Lieutenant Colonel Bolton opposite him suddenly changed drastically!
