Chapter 205 Clearance
Ji Xun felt that since Jia Yu was the only one who could see through the flaw in the field of gravity before, he would definitely not know that he could not bear the sacred flame of royal power and risk his life rashly.
So, the unusual behavior of this mushroom head just now must have some deep meaning.
But Ji Xun didn't think about whether Jia Yu was dead or not.
The higher the rank, the weirder the extraordinary means.
Chujiu, who has an elemental body, Bai Wei, whom he met before, and Lao Duan, who is proficient in the secrets of the dead in front of him
To a certain extent, they all have the ability to be immortal.
Even if Ji Xun himself has the blessing of the "Immortality Curse", it will be difficult for him to die.
What he was wondering now was, what was Jia Yu’s motive for committing suicide?
But before he could figure it out, Chujiu had already rushed towards the Holy Grail.
If there were no accidents, she would be like Jia Yu before, the moment she touched the Holy Grail, she would be attacked by the fourth-order S-level disaster that appeared out of thin air.
Even if she is so strong, there is a high probability that she will be hit as hard as before.
Seeing this, Ji Xun didn't hesitate at all. He kicked the ground with his feet and rushed over.
Because his intuition told him that he wanted to help.
"Pa" "Pa" "Pa".
Ji Xun stepped out and made explosive sounds in the air one after another.
Almost the moment Chujiu touched the Holy Grail, layers of strange gravitational threads appeared on the ground nearby.
But because of his decisive action, Ji Xun also arrived, and at the same time he took a breath of cold air: "His, the gravity of the fourth-level S disaster is so strong!"
Falling into the realm, he Instantly, my body felt as heavy as lead, and I sank suddenly.
No wonder you can’t avoid it on the ninth day of the lunar month.
The current intensity of gravity is several times greater than the pressure Ji Xun endured when he was risking his life to get the Holy Grail.
If he hadn't touched the threshold of the mysterious magic "Inducing the Gods to Fall" just now, he could be exempted from most of the gravitational pull.
I am afraid that his body will break apart on the spot.
Without time to think about anything, Ji Xun, who appeared on Chujiu's back, had already drawn out his useless sword and used it as a shield across his chest.
He has identified the direction of gravity and predicted where the monster will appear.
really!
While he was blocking, the sharp spear lingering in the black flames had already stabbed towards him like lightning.
"铿~"
Although the spear pierced the sword body, the strange penetrating force like [Level 2 Collapse] penetrated the whole body.
The sword made a sharp buzzing sound, as if the soul was about to be shaken out of the body.
Ji Xun felt as if his hands holding the sword were being electrocuted, and he almost let go.
He did not dare to resist, and the muscles under his feet suddenly burst out with strength. He flew upside down and used the force to remove the terrifying force that went straight to his internal organs.
With a "boom", Ji Xun hit the rock wall firmly.
However, just because he stood up to block the spear, Chujiu also successfully got the Holy Grail in his hand.
This is the second time she has obtained the Holy Grail, and this time it is obviously different.
The moment she touched it, the Holy Grail actually lit up with light.
But it is not the burning flames before, but more like the gentle light of a night pearl.
It seems to indicate that this sacred object recognizes the identity of the holder?
When Ji Xun saw this, although he was confused about what had changed, he was relieved.
Before, when he saw this old friend appearing in this extra-dimensional space, he guessed that the Holy Grail might have some important meaning to her.
It seems inevitable.
However, Chujiu frowned slightly while holding the Holy Grail, as if he felt that something was missing.
Ji Xun also saw it.
Because I didn’t see the message from Enlightenment prompting the barrier to be broken.
In other words, they did not fully achieve their mission.
Prince Sarn's face changed suddenly when he saw the Holy Grail in Chujiu's hand shimmering.
Obviously this key plot character knows what this vision means.
His eyes were filled with anger, and he charged forward with a golden sword in hand.
At the same time, the fourth-level Hell Knight also launched a second attack.
Right now, this [Sismark Holy Grail] is like a bomb in your hand, and it is fatal to anyone who takes it.
But Chujiu had no intention of letting go.
The magic power was surging in her body, and she looked like she was about to resist head-on.
“What on earth is she going to do?”
Ji Xun looked at his pupils and narrowed them.
Still not understanding the meaning of holding the Holy Grail.
But seeing that his old friend was about to be besieged, he didn't hesitate and rushed forward again.
Although his rank is the lowest in this Tomb of Heroes, he can still be restrained.
The two of them did not say a word, but in perfect agreement, they appeared in the other direction of the battlefield in the mausoleum almost at the same time.
Here, the fire dragon transformed by Red Dragon Yuri is having a lively fight with a disaster clone.
This demonic viscount might have been the strongest one in the mausoleum this time in terms of individual strength.
After transforming into the body of a dragon, almost no one can be killed.
However, at this moment, it has been tortured unspeakably by the gravitational field of the Hell Knight.
It's like being stuck in a quagmire, unable to struggle.
The worse scene is coming now.
Chu Jiu, holding the Holy Grail, rushed towards it, and in a blink of an eye, he appeared on the back of the giant dragon.
The red dragon Yuri suddenly felt bad.
It understood what this human being was trying to do.
But at this moment, we are also in a dilemma.
If it transforms into an adult form, it will no longer be able to withstand the terrifying gravity.
But if it doesn't transform, its huge body with a wingspan of nearly a hundred meters is the best target to attract firepower.
There is no time for hesitation in this kind of battle.
Just with the thought, Red Dragon Yuri found that his back was cold for a moment, and then it instantly turned into a heartbreaking burning pain.
Looking closely, Chujiu was holding the Holy Grail and touching the demon's back.
It is not easy to break through its dragon scales by normal means, but the high royal power law on the Holy Grail is the best way to break the defense.
“ANG~”
The red dragon let out a sad cry.
Even it could not withstand the burning of the royal flame, and a large piece of its back was burned away in an instant.
The worst thing is that it is not facing an opponent.
Chu Jiu's hand was like a knife on his back, and the magic power in his body instantly became chaotic.
The Hell Knight in front was also holding a spear, and one shot pierced the red dragon's neck.
When Ji Xun saw this, he also grinned and guessed in his heart: "It seems that to get the recognition of the hero's will, it is necessary to hunt high-level demons?"
From just now, he saw Chu Jiu take the Holy Grail and disappear. In an instant, he also guessed that his old friend would kill the red dragon first.
The situation is now basically clear.
Whether it is related to the mission or not, dealing with these unexpected factors first is definitely the most correct choice.
Prince Nasane originally wanted to snatch the Holy Grail, but seeing that Chujiu wanted to kill the red dragon Yuri, he hesitated.
Obviously they want to sit back and wait for both sides to suffer.
Ji Xun noticed this and ignored the guy.
What he has to do now is to block the Hell Knight who is chasing her for Chujiu.
"Keng!"
The sword was hit by the knight's spear again, and Ji Xun flew backwards.
But this also bought critical time for Chujiu.
The sad roar of the red dragon was like a mountain torrent in the sealed underground palace, shaking the eardrums.
But he is getting weaker and weaker.
The holy flame of royal power on the Holy Grail broke through the dragon scale defense, and Chujiu's forbidden magic of the devil was not a vegetarian either.
The terrifying cold air poured directly into the dragon's body, and the real damage was directly maxed out.
Yuri's hellfire became lighter and lighter, and frost covered the weak points such as the dragon's wings and tail in an instant.
And not only Chujiu, it also has to face the Hell Knight.
Under multiple attacks, the red dragon was just a trapped beast still fighting, getting weaker and weaker.
The ice power of Chujiu can freeze the target's mental power, and the dragon's body is controlled by the field of gravity. Yuri is like flesh and blood on the chopping board, ready to be slaughtered.
Finally.
After Ji Xun was knocked out for the fourth time, Chujiu didn't know what spell he used, and the red dragon's body completely turned into an ice sculpture.
At the same time, Enlightenment also appeared.
"Kill the fourth-level A-level disaster 'Red Dragon Yuri', combat merit +2000;"
Although Ji Xun did not cause direct damage to Yuri, he was still a help. , got two thousand battle merits.
For killing a disaster of this magnitude, this merit is a bit lacking, but it is already ideal.
What's more, the rewards you get for completing story missions are the highlight.
At this point, several demons have been killed.
The second piece of enlightenment also appeared immediately: "Complete the A+ opportunity plot, combat merit +20,000, additional plot exploration +20%, opportunity treasure chest +1"
Same as the last plot.
After killing the key BOSS in the opportunity plot, a treasure chest also appeared on the corpse.
But this is not the time to check.
At the same time, the rich extraordinary characteristics of the red dragon's corpse overflowed.
Ji Xun also devoured it from the air.
After Yuri died, Ji Xun and Chujiu finally looked at each other.
No words were said, but the two of them understood each other instantly.
In an extra-dimensional space, the most difficult thing is never the plot characters, but the adventurers.
There is still an enemy alive here.
That is the hunchbacked old man in ghost infant state.
At this moment, the backbone of the Silver Moon Sect is struggling with his own Hell Knight, complaining endlessly.
The S-class monster cannot be killed, and it gets stronger the more you fight it.
With a glance from the corner of his eye, he saw Chujiu rushing over with the Holy Grail, which was burning like a white light like a torch. Old Duan's expression suddenly changed with fright.
Although he has the means to resist the monster, he will not die for a while.
But he had just suffered the consequences of the Holy Grail, so he didn’t dare to touch it.
He is also very self-aware and knows that there is absolutely no way that he can survive the combination of Chujiu and the Hell Knight.
Now that he was about to follow in the footsteps of Yuri the Red Dragon, Lao Duan had already prepared a mouthful of blood, chanted a spell, and the six-pointed star magic circle under his feet lit up, and a treasure box appeared through his channel?
Before Ji Xun could understand, the treasure chest suddenly opened, revealing densely packed jagged fangs and wriggling eyes.
Look at this form, it’s actually a living thing?
The legendary flesh-devouring [Mimic Mimic of the Abyss]?
Lao Duan Ma Liu jumped into the mouth of the Mimic.
The box closed with a click.
The magic circle of the necromancer just disappeared, and the treasure chest also disappeared.
Ji Xun was amazed when he saw this scene.
The idea of using reverse necromancy to escape is quite novel.
Lao Duan, the gravedigger, always has some weird things in his hands.
But at this time, the crisis is far from over!
Just when Lao Duan was forced to escape, a sword energy suddenly struck Chujiu.
Prince Sarn, who was dressed in golden armor, turned into a series of afterimages, coming with murderous intent.
Now that there are no trash fish, the prince also takes action. He is protected by the souls of his ancestors and will not be attacked by Hell Knights, nor is he affected by the laws of the Holy Grail.
After the death of Red Dragon Yuri, his fourth-level strength was already the strongest in this underground palace!
What he wants to do now is to kill these two people in front of him.
Ji Xun and Chujiu never had any luck that this fifth prince could allow them to leave with the Holy Grail.
The two sides fought fiercely in the underground palace.
The most stressful thing is the ninth day of the lunar month.
She had to deal with a fourth-level Hell Knight alone, and also had to resist the attack of the same fourth-level Prince Sarn.
Originally, as long as she lost the Holy Grail, she would at least avoid facing the strongest S disaster.
But Jixun knew exactly why she didn't give up.
Because from the current point of view, the will of space is also somewhat "resistant" to them. In this low-level dungeon, they can obtain the [Holy Grail of Sismark], a treasure that will definitely require a follow-up super-difficulty decisive battle to obtain it.
So, it is very likely that once the key plot character, Prince Sarn, gets the Holy Grail, the plot of "The Battle of Ironforge" will be forced to end.
Although Ji Xun and the others can escape from the extradimensional space alive.
But he failed to get the Holy Grail and failed.
So even if you understand this.
This risk must be resisted.
And the Holy Grail can only be held by Chujiu.
As long as the season changes, you will be dropped every minute.
What he can do now is rely on the secret of gravity he has learned to help occasionally contain Disaster or Sarn.
But if you continue fighting like this, you won’t see any results.
Chujiu was already a big step behind, so the chance of killing Prince Sarn, who was the top level 4, was not very likely.
Not to mention there is an S-class disaster.
But within just a few meetings, the situation became very critical.
Although Ji Xun and Catalina teamed up to bet half their lives to defeat Lieutenant Colonel Burton who had passed the fourth level.
But they are both at the fourth level, and their combat power is also very different.
In comparison, the two peak level four enemies in front of me were at least several times stronger.
Just to help contain him for this moment, Ji Xun was hit hard and sent flying.
The injuries caused by suppressing two large-level enemies were fatal every time.
Once his thigh was cut off in half, once his abdomen was cut in half, and once his chest was penetrated by a spear
Thanks to his secret healing method, otherwise he would have died suddenly many times.
And Chujiu himself was in very bad shape.
She was unable to resist the gravity of the God's Fall, and could only resist the suppression of two fourth-level gravity secret arts, which limited her in every aspect.
And once Ji Xun was hit hard, not only did her pressure increase dramatically, but she also had to help cover him up, and she was also hit hard several times.
The situation is getting worse.
Looking at the posture, if the two of them really continue to spend time like this, they will only die sooner or later.
Or throw away the Holy Grail and give up this space.
“Boom~”
Once again, Ji Xun flew out upside down, spitting out a mouthful of old blood.
His expression became more and more solemn, and he was thinking quickly: "It's strange, where is the breaking point?"
The two of them fought not to win, but to delay.
Instinct tells Ji Xun that even if they kill Prince Sarn, they still can't solve any problem.
On the contrary, it will seal the only chance of survival out of the space, and in the end, it will have to fight to the death with the Hell Knight.
To obtain the Holy Grail, it is absolutely impossible to rely solely on force.
Ji Xun never thought of giving up.
My purpose of coming this time has been achieved. After drinking the holy water, my life span has been restored.
But Chujiu was obviously here for the Holy Grail this time.
For her to risk her life, this Holy Grail must be crucial to her.
The news of their going out this time has been leaked, and there is a high probability that there will be no next chance.
It is absolutely impossible for Ji Xun not to help.
He kept thinking about all the clues in his mind.
Tombstones, Holy Grails, bones, statues, realms.
Force, inheritance, royal power, and heroic destiny.
Theoretically, these conditions should be met.
Ji Xun really couldn't figure out what was missing.
The biggest uncertainty is the "princess's bones".
Since Sarn can survive on it and even take away the Holy Grail, this must be a key clue.
But what does this mean?
Ji Xun himself couldn’t understand.
A picture came to his mind over and over again.
That was Jia Yu’s inexplicable death behavior before!
The mushroom-headed corpse is still lying on the ground, seeming to be saying something silently.
While fighting, Ji Xun carefully recalled the scene where Jia Yu sent himself to death, and kept thinking in his mind: "That guy Jia Yu must have seen something, otherwise he wouldn't have sent himself to death. ’. But what exactly is this trying to suggest to me?”
He still couldn't figure it out.
Unconsciously, not far away, Chujiu was severely wounded by the Hell Knight again, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
This old friend of mine does not have the ability to heal injuries.
If you keep fighting, you will really die.
Ji Xun frowned as he watched.
Although he could take his own life and death very lightly, he definitely didn't want to watch his friends die in front of his eyes.
However, this thought emerged, as if a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind.
Looking at Jia Yu’s behavior again.
Ji Xun suddenly realized!
Death!
Didn't that guy just want to say two words: sacrifice his life?
Ji Xun finally understood what Jia Yu wanted to express.
This guy's behavior has made it very obvious: he is willing to die to give his teammates clues to break the game!
A moment.
It seems that the most critical piece of the puzzle has been found.
The clues in Ji Xun's mind were completely connected in an instant.
The most important clue lies in the contents of the tombstone!
Although I don’t know what happened in the Second Holy Grail War a hundred years ago.
But the hero Galen’s achievements definitely qualified him to drink holy water and recover from his injuries.
But the fact is, he is dead!
Ji Xun remembered that Jia Yu had mentioned this issue at that time.
Judging from the unwilling words on the tombstone, there is only one possibility.
That is the hero Galen gave the holy water to another person!
So, he died.
Someone else lives.
And the other person is most likely the "Princess Teresa" who has turned into a corpse!
At this moment, Ji Xun can even restore the conspiracy story from a hundred years ago in his mind: the hero Galen defeated the Demon King and obtained the Holy Grail, but was also seriously injured; originally he could drink holy water to recover, but his great achievements shocked his master. , making the senior officials fearful, or perhaps discovering the filth of some of the royal family's senior officials; what's even more coincidental is that his lover, the princess, was also seriously injured; the hero Galen gave the holy water to his lover; the princess realized it later and chose to be buried in the This
This is why the sentence on the tombstone is "In the name of God, a mass killing, ridiculous royal power."
The story is no longer important.
The remaining will of the hero Galen guards the Holy Grail, just to select those who get the Holy Grail.
A person who can learn his secret inheritance and have the spirit of sacrifice!
Ji Xun's eyes narrowed, and he already understood, thinking: "That's the meaning of 'Princess Bones'! The legendary hero who wants to get the Holy Grail has to do it for others, for righteousness, and for justice. Love, the quality of giving up one’s life for friendship!”
He finally understood!
This is the message Jia Yu wants to convey.
But you can’t say it clearly.
That's why Mushroom Head used that almost unbelievable act of committing suicide to convey this method of breaking the situation.
Chujiu may have guessed it, but she can't say.
Although she spoke, as a friend who was in danger of life and death, Ji Xun would not refuse to give his life a try.
But in this way, it is like a friendship tie, or an exchange of interests after weighing the pros and cons because you want to get out alive.
This kind of subjective behavior of letting people die is impure.
It is very likely that the breaking conditions will not be triggered.
So, only Ji Xun himself has this "enlightenment"!
“Haha, that’s it.”
When Ji Xun thought of this, he suddenly had a wanton laugh on his face.
If it were anyone else, they would definitely hesitate to die for others.
But Ji Xun won’t!
And Ji Xun knew that he was the only one to be the victim.
Because, he is the only one who has learned the secret method of "inducing the gods to fall".
Maybe Jia Yu can do it and has thought of this a long time ago, but he can't!
Even if he really couldn't die, he still understood the secret method.
But Jia Yu had no pure intention of giving his life for Chujiu or Ji Xun.
No, maybe he has already tried it.
The body is still on the ground.
It has been proven that it does not work.
Only Ji Xun and Chujiu, two people who have been close friends in life and death, can meet this condition for each other.
You must learn the secret method and have the spirit of sacrifice
This is this extradimensional space. In the intermediate difficulty extradimensional space of "The Battle of Ironforge", there is only one thing left for adventurers to get the Holy Grail. Chance!
"Hehe. It's really harsh."
Thinking of this, Ji Xun and Chujiu looked at each other and rushed over without hesitation.
Even with eye contact, Chujiu understood that he understood.
Ji Xun responded with a bright smile.
There was never any hesitation.
He saw the indescribable tacit understanding in this old friend's eyes.
If there is any friend in this world who is worthy of Ji Xun dying for her, then Chujiu is definitely one of them.
Similarly, Chujiu will not hesitate.
Both sides know this.
Ji Xun rushed forward and stood in front of Chujiu.
Prince Sarn just happened to kill him with one sword.
This sword is very vicious.
Chop from head to tailbone.
Divided into two.
This kind of injury cannot be cured even by the "Immortality Curse".
Ji Xun used the same method that Jia Yu used to nearly die before to test one of their conjectures.
If the bet is right, you can live.
If the bet is wrong, die.
Ji Xun grinned.
Even at the last moment when he was cut into two pieces by the sword energy, he still had a smile on his face.
It doesn’t matter what the form is, but he must be willing to die for others.
His vision went dark, and Ji Xun once again felt the feeling of death coming.
Hmm.
It feels so good.
Ji Xun’s soul enjoyed this wonderful experience very much.
Very rare.
But this feeling only lasted for a moment.
Enlightenment has already emerged: "Congratulations on gaining the recognition of the hero Galen's will."
Ji Xun knew it and passed the level.
