Chapter 230 Reversal, Astonishing Secret Word
Xie Guozhong did not leave from the main entrance of the tavern, but jumped directly from the second floor window.
This move is like throwing stones into a calm lake to fry fish.
As soon as he jumped down, Ji Xun clearly felt several powerful and murderous energy fluctuations in the air, which suddenly appeared.
Seeing this, he murmured solemnly: "Those guys in Bureau X are really evil."
Xie Guozhong's disguise is already perfect.
But he was discovered immediately.
Obviously those trackers have some special positioning methods.
Ji Xun became more solemn as he thought about the way his fate was locked last time in Xia Mucheng.
At that time, it was because Aunt Nan, the top powerhouse, helped break the situation, otherwise he would never have thought of any possibility of escaping.
"Lao Xie, don't die."
Thinking of this, Ji Xun said to himself.
At the same time, he looked at the deerskin bag in his hand with a slightly complicated expression.
He was in no hurry to see what it was.
Instead, he looked around the tavern.
It is not advisable to stay here for a long time.
Sure enough, it seemed that they had received some instructions, and several drunkards who were suspected of being "spies" also took action.
Their eyes were wandering around, obviously trying to find some drunkards who looked unusual.
Xie Guozhong left the Old Gun Tavern. If he waited any longer, he would be chased after him.
Once the tavern is blocked, there is no way to escape.
Ji Xun didn't dare to stay any longer. He handled the package and stood up.
The reason why I didn't deliberately find any remote place to meet before was because I thought that after meeting, the two of them could escape smoothly.
Once a place with few people is exposed, it is very difficult to escape.
However, there are many people in the tavern, which makes it easier to hide.
Fortunately, the tavern was crowded with people, so no one noticed his behavior was unusual.
But he still underestimated the professional agents of Bureau X.
As soon as he walked out of the tavern door, Ji Xun suddenly felt some energy locking onto him.
This is a keener perception than the werewolf's sense of crisis.
“It shouldn’t have been discovered.”
Ji Xun didn’t feel that he had been exposed so quickly.
It's because Bureau X's personnel are very large, almost blocking the entire Downing Street.
There is a posture of preferring to kill the wrong one and not let it go.
As soon as Xie Guozhong's whereabouts were exposed, a large number of "professional agents" appeared outside a row of pubs nearby.
Newspaper sellers, flower sellers, cleaners, bartenders.
The eyes of the agents in various costumes immediately became sharp.
There are also some strong men who are very troublesome at first glance.
If Ji Xun continues to drink, he feels that his disguise will not be discovered.
But he was not sure what was in the package that Xie Guozhong handed him, and whether it might be located by some means, so he could only choose to leave as soon as possible.
This move also attracted several eyes to focus on him.
“Boom!”
"Boom!"
"."
A violent explosion suddenly sounded on the street in the distance.
Ji Xun knew that the fight was with Xie Guozhong.
Perhaps he also deliberately created chaos to create conditions for him to leave.
As soon as the explosion sounded, Downing Street was in chaos for a moment.
But in the eyes of professional agents, they immediately knew that chaos was an opportunity to take advantage of. Countless eyes on the street stared at everyone who was planning to leave on the street.
Obviously there are some special sensory relics that emit radar-like sensory waves.
Ji Xun was completely unaware of this abnormality before.
In the past two months, I have been trained hard by Gong Wu in basic skills, and now my understanding of "qi" has reached a very keen level.
The feeling like his hairs were being blown slightly by the wind made him immediately alert.
"Has Downing Street been completely locked down? It's really a big trouble."
Ji Xun exhaled slightly.
He felt more and more that Xie Guozhong had really discovered some incredible truth in his investigation this time.
So much so that most of the X Bureau’s field agents are now in the Innocence City.
It was impossible to leave on a motorcycle.
Fortunately, Ji Xun is very familiar with Downing Street. When they agreed to meet before, he went to observe several secret passages that he was familiar with when he was a corpse collector.
Taking advantage of the commotion caused by the explosion, Ji Xun mingled with the crowd watching the excitement, and then quietly walked around to an alley.
"Three, two, one"
Ji Xun's heart was counting down, and the detonation bomb previously installed in the tavern exploded, causing chaos again.
He decisively jumped off the iron bridge and hid in the darkness.
Ji Xun avoided everyone's eyes and ran all the way into the secret passage.
However, not long after, Ji Xun found several agents in black suits chasing after him.
It’s not a locked tracking, then it’s a trap that was passively triggered.
Ji Xun thought: "Are the sewers equipped with early warning trigger devices? These people in Bureau X are really leak-proof."
But it’s not too surprising.
Under limited conditions, human wisdom can only think of a few escape routes.
He can think of it, but it is impossible for a professional agent to think of it.
The good news is that Xie Guozhong has almost lured all the masters away.
The agent squatting in the sewer is not too difficult.
Judging from the intensity of the "qi" exposed, the strongest one should be the third level.
As long as these people can be eliminated quickly, the encirclement can be broken out.
"Tap", "tap", "tap".
The moccasin boots made a rapid sound as they stepped on the sewer where sewage flowed across.
Ji Xun’s beastly wolf ears trembled slightly, and his figure quietly merged into the darkness.
A few breaths later, a team of five people hurriedly appeared in front of them.
Standard elite squad configuration.
The leader saw that there were no traces of water splashing in the corridor, and he keenly noticed something: "Be careful, that person may be sneaking nearby!"
Before he finished speaking, a voice came out. The wolf's claws, which were only lingering in the air waves, quietly poked out from the darkness, grabbed one of the people's heads, and exerted force.
“Bang!”
Like a watermelon exploding, scarlet is everywhere.
The five-man team was broken into formation, so they could kill quickly!
The sudden murderous intent suddenly broke out, and the other four people immediately reacted, with various cards in their hands already lighting up.
But Ji Xun didn’t give them a chance.
Kill one person with a sneak attack, then punch out like lightning with his backhand.
The recent man in a suit who was probably a fighter was not slow to respond. Seeing the fists coming, he quickly retreated back.
This is a very classic body skill [rabbit kick].
This guy is also very proficient. He jumped two meters away in an instant, which is already out of the distance of being hit by a fist.
However, Ji Xun sneered in his heart as he looked at it.
The right fist broke through the wind at an extremely fast speed, and the lingering ripples of Gang Qi seemed to explode from the barrel, creating a visible air wave in the air.
There was a muffled sound.
The next moment, I saw a fist-shaped depression appeared in the abdomen of the man in the suit who was still retreating in mid-air. He was bowing like a prawn, his teeth were cracking, and blood foam spurted out from his mouth. , already severely injured, I don’t know whether I will live or die.
Seeing this scene, the expressions of the other three men in black also changed suddenly, as if they all thought: "Hao Quan!"
[Hao Quan] is a very skilled qigong master. A secret skill, and being able to use this move is enough to be considered a fighting master.
Everyone realized that the person in front of them was not simple.
However, this is not a wave punch.
It is Gong Wu’s [Ba Fist].
As the old-timer said, once you master this epic-quality boxing technique, you can activate almost all fighting skills.
Ji Xun only mastered some introductory Qi control skills and could easily simulate the waves of the Wave Ken.
Killing people in the air!
These people in Bureau X are indeed elite agents.
Seeing Ji Xun kill two people in a row, and the other three panicked for a moment, they also reacted immediately: "Plan B!"
He shouted loudly.
As soon as the spell appeared on the skin of the leading third-level captain, he rushed forward without fear.
On the other side, a woman took out a communicator, looking like she wanted to send a signal to shake people off.
There was another assassin who blended into the darkness quietly.
Ji Xun knew what this tactic meant.
This operation is of high standard and there will definitely be a series of emergency response plans.
I just found Ji Xun, a "suspicious person", and it was only the small team that came.
Now that it has been confirmed that it is invincible, if the signal is sent out, there will definitely be reinforcements from experts.
If you give them a chance, it will be a big trouble if the news gets out.
Since Ji Xun chose to ambush, he was well prepared.
This third-level captain did not care about life and death to contain him. Normally, it would take some effort to kill him even if he was a fourth-level captain.
However, Ji Xun raised his hand and grabbed it with five fingers, and layers of strange black gravitational threads appeared on his palm.
“Whoosh!”
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
"."
The six silver flying knives were pulled by gravity and fell out of the darkness at the speed of a lightning flash. Fly out.
The two handles penetrated the head and chest of the woman in black who was about to send a signal.
The other two shot out two bloody arrows in the darkness.
Don’t look at the assassin’s stealth skills.
But whether it is optical stealth at the physical level or stealth at the elemental level, their "qi" cannot be hidden.
Even if Ji Xun can't see it now, he can still sense the direction in which the air is slipping away and hit it accurately.
Kill two more people with four flying knives.
There were two more weapons, heading towards the back of the third-level captain.
“Not good!”
This guy also noticed something and his expression changed.
But just when he wanted to restrain Ji Xun, he couldn't stop punching.
Before he could turn around, two flying knives stabbed into his back.
"Puff" and "puff" twice.
The flying knife pierced the blood arrow, but it did not penetrate, but was embedded in the bone.
Ji Xun looked at the white light lingering on this man's skin, but he said softly in his heart: "Hey, [Curse·Entropic Light Shield]? I have mastered this secret method, and my talent is very good."
Although he has never seen it with his own eyes, he has read many classics and has seen the introduction of this secret method of body protection.
It is said to be a rare body protection secret that only senior officers of the federal military have the authority to contact.
The power is roughly equivalent to the downgraded version of the Overlord Body.
With this method, it is almost difficult to say that you are defeated when you encounter someone of the same level.
What a pity.
Meet Ji Xun.
Two months ago, Ji Xun wanted to kill him, but there was still a long stalemate.
But these two months have been different.
It is a pity that the sneak attack failed to kill him.
But Ji Xun was not idle.
Click your finger.
The other four flying knives turned around and flew again.
The man in black was stabbed in the back, and there was a moment of panic in his eyes.
The man in front of him killed four people in a row, and his method was too weird, which made him feel a strong death crisis.
At the same time, he also recognized the identity of the terrifying werewolf in front of him: "That S-class wanted criminal!"
Between masters, one meeting would make it clear how big the gap was.
The man in black thought that it would be difficult to survive today.
But as long as he can hold on for a moment longer, he can hopefully attract teammates.
So when he was stabbed in the back, he endured the pain and punched Ji Xun in the chest.
This punch has the power to collapse a mountain.
At such a close distance, he didn't believe that someone of the same level could be punched and still be unharmed.
However, an even more desperate scene appeared next.
Ji Xun watched the flash of thunder and the fist coming, knowing that he couldn't avoid it, but he didn't even think about it: "[Secret Art: Thunder Fist]"
After seeing the scenery at the peak, in his eyes at this moment, Looking at these moves again, they suddenly seemed ordinary.
The special destructive effect blessed by thunder spells not only breaks defenses, but also "stuns" to a certain extent.
There is a mastery of martial arts that can locate the mysteries.
However,
It's just some skills.
In the words of the old man, martial arts without foundation are just "showy".
The fist hit his chest, but Ji Xun didn't let the force of the punch penetrate his body at all.
The moment he touched it, his muscles contracted slightly, and his chest sank just right.
A magical scene appeared.
The fist seemed to be stuck to the chest, and Ben Lei's "pop" did not come out, but seemed to be stuck to it.
The man in black suddenly looked horrified: "What's going on!"
He clearly felt that his fist was like a punch on cotton.
It was obvious that he had hit the target, but he had no way to relieve himself!
We are not afraid that the enemy is strong, but we are afraid that the enemy’s methods are completely incomprehensible!
When the blow failed, he instinctively wanted to draw out his fist, but was even more horrified to find that his fist could not be drawn out.
It's like
It's like being soaked in thick maltose and being stuck!
The force of the fist did not dissipate, but he staggered, already revealing a big flaw. Ji Xun looked at this guy's frightened expression with his usual expression.
I have been beaten for the past two months.
That’s because the bad old man who was the target of the sparring session was too strong.
Now, he can finally use what he has learned to beat others.
At this moment, Ji Xun also deeply felt the intention of the old senior.
This is "Ting Jin'er".
It was the "bird in the palm of your hand that does not fly" stunt that Ji Xun had practiced for more than a month to master.
This is not only the super high skill proficiency, but also the mystery of qigong that transforms energy into energy.
Whenever external force strikes, he can use his body to deflect the force very accurately.
Instead of just resisting hard like before.
And this move is not only defensive, but also counterattack.
Once the opponent's fist is stuck, the initiative is in your own hands.
Strange in an instant.
Ji Xun's thousands of pores were keenly aware of the direction and strength of the enemy's anger, and his body was glued to the opponent's fist.
The opponent wanted to withdraw his punch, but his fist was still pressed against his chest.
Ji Xun easily grabbed the opponent's arm to prevent him from escaping. The four flying knives behind him instantly penetrated various acupuncture points.
Gong Wu, the great qigong master, not only knows qigong, but also various ancient martial arts.
The technique of Qigong acupoint tapping can almost be understood as "vulnerability attack".
No matter what kind of martial arts the opponent uses, as long as you know the rules of the opponent's spell power, you can accurately interrupt it.
"Interrupting spell casting" in a practical sense.
Ji Xunyi stabbed the guy's spine with a flying knife, and it was obvious that the luster of his body protection dimmed.
Then he punched him without hesitation.
“Bang!”
The four levels of internal energy of [Dijibeng] penetrated his head, and the man in the suit suddenly became dizzy.
Ji Xun would not give him a chance to wake up, and his fists poured down like a rainstorm.
“Boom!”
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"."
In the dark sewer, dense explosions like firecrackers rang out.
After counting the interest.
A gap opened in the skull of the man in black, and he was already dead.
Ji Xun killed five people in a row, and the whole process took less than a minute.
He didn't feel that there were any pursuers coming, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
After cleaning up the body, Ji Xun quickly evacuated towards the depths of the sewer.
“So I am already so powerful”
While running, Ji Xun carefully recalled the details of the murder just now.
The five-man team in Game X was originally very strong.
But the process of ambush was much easier than expected.
Especially kill the last third-level captain.
Now that Ji Xun thinks about it carefully, that guy's martial arts skills and experience are not bad.
The ability to kill quickly is purely due to the gap in martial arts knowledge and realm.
In the past two months, the old man had pushed Ji Xun's level too high.
I used to be addicted to martial arts moves, but now that I have started practicing Qigong, I realize that I really went down the wrong path.
A thought flashed through.
Not long after, Ji Xun had already emerged from the drainage pipe in an unknown alley.
After observing the surroundings, it was already more than ten kilometers away from Downing Street.
Ji Xun still didn't dare to be careless. He changed his clothes and dealt with the traces.
Evacuate towards the distance again.
No. 117, Dongcheng Street, Dongwu District.
This is where Ji Xun first worked as a corpse collector.
Ji Xun is also the most familiar with this urban area.
This place was in a semi-abandoned state before, but now it has become lively, and the streets are full of renovation workers.
The body collector branch is still there.
Ji looked for an abandoned small building and stopped.
He took out the deerskin package that Xie Guozhong had entrusted to him before, and suddenly realized: "No wonder I am the only one who can take it."
Because as soon as the package was opened, enlightenment appeared.
"You have been exempted from a strong 'Unknown Curse'"
"You have been exempted from a strong 'Unknown Faith'"
The items in this package are tainted by faith. , and the curse.
Ji Xun’s eyelids jumped as he looked at it.
No matter who gets this thing, it will be a big problem.
No wonder Xie Guozhong wanted to leave it to himself.
Because Ji Xun knew that only this old friend knew that he could be exempted from the pollution of faith.
“What on earth is it?”
Ji Xun worked undercover in the Silver Moon Sect and came into contact with many things that were contaminated by faith.
So when I saw this enlightenment, I didn’t take it too seriously.
As for "curse", that's not even a problem.
Ji Xun thought and opened the deerskin pocket directly.
In an instant, his eyes glazed over.
“No way”
Ji Xun's eyes twitched inexplicably.
He was fully prepared to see some strange and terrifying items.
Unexpectedly, I saw something familiar.
A clay pot filled with dense incantations.
After careful identification, they are exactly the same.
Catastrophic object [X-711-Spelled Clay Pot].
He has two of them.
“It’s actually this thing.”
Ji Xun also didn’t expect that the thing Xie Guozhong risked his life to steal from Bureau X would be this.
If you let that old friend know that there are two of you here, your jaw will drop, right?
After thinking about it, Ji Xun carefully observed the clay pot in his hand.
After all, there is no pollution leaked from the two of them.
This one is definitely different.
Looking at it, I saw a small crack on the pottery pot.
“Is it broken? Although it has been repaired, has the pollution still leaked out?”
Ji Xun saw gold paint on the cracks.
The repair method is very clever, but it still cannot prevent the leakage.
Seeing this, he also thought in his mind: "So, the reason why the clay pot is exempt from the curse is because the material itself is to limit the leakage of the curse pollution inside, not the function of the pot itself?"
Ji Xun had always been curious about what was in the jar before, but now he probably knew a little bit more about it.
The jar and the contents are two different things.
Jars are curse-proof.
And inside is the source of some kind of "curse" and "belief pollution" that exceeds cognition.
For Xie Guozhong to explain so seriously, even "mentioning relevant words" may be contaminated, and the things involved must be more terrifying than what you see.
“.”
After knowing what was inside, Ji Xun completely gave up the idea of being curious about what was in the jar.
Instead, he felt strange in his heart: "So, I was running around with two nuclear bombs on my back?"
I didn't dare to think about how much danger it would cause if the two cans were to break. .
Fortunately, this thing is very strong.
Ji Xun looked at the clay pot with a small crack in his hand and fell into deep thought: "So, I want to give this to Jia Yu?"
He thought for a moment, Xie Guozhong The processing is no problem.
I also roughly guessed the context of the matter.
I have heard before that the X Bureau headquarters houses all kinds of strange things, some out-of-control ancient relics, some disasters and strange creatures that ordinary people cannot deal with.
Watch now Come on, it should be to contain this clay pot.
Then I don’t know when it was leaked. Some high-level officials within Bureau X may have been contaminated.
Xie Guozhong couldn't trust those people, so he could only find a way to hand it over to people from other districts.
And the entire Federation has no choice in dealing with such dangerous items.
The leader of the Thirteen Knights is not bad.
At least Jia Yu is still an acquaintance.
"But having said that, three jars have appeared. How many are there?"
Ji Xun looked at the broken jar and frowned slightly.
He thought that he would just follow his old friend's instructions.
But just when he was about to put the jar into the fourth-level relic [Gorgon's Curse Seal Bag], he suddenly thought of another thought: "Hey, will Lao Xie return it to me?" What does it imply? "
Xie Guozhong is the ace agent of Bureau X. This guy seems to have a rough personality, but he is actually very delicate.
Those things I said before were very urgent, so there was nothing wrong with them.
But just because of the tacit understanding between friends, Ji Xun always felt that there might be other hints based on Lao Xie's character.
For example, if Lao Xie knew that he had been discovered, would there be something he "can't say" but could only hint at?
This intuition flashed.
Ji Xun recalled all the details of the previous meeting in his mind.
With his hands free, he looked through the jar and the leather bag.
The belt is an ancient relic, stained with some blood.
It should have been contracted after Xie Guozhong was injured.
Ji Xun saw the blood stains that were normal, but he vaguely felt that there seemed to be some pattern to the blood stains.
As an agent, cryptography is a basic professional skill.
Intuition told Ji Xun that these blood stains might hide some information.
Once I think about it in this direction, those patterns gradually become regular again.
"This seems to be the 'Penrose Code'. Or is it simply a disordered code?"
Because of his photographic memory, Ji Xun immediately picked out one of the cryptography books he had read.
This kind of gibberish is very tricky.
Either it is really garbled.
Either requires a specific "key" to crack the encrypted information.
"The key."
Ji Xun had more than a dozen thoughts running at the same time, recalling all the conversations he had with Xie Guozhong.
He suddenly thought of a number "345".
This is the number of the dice that Xie Guozhong rolled when he proposed to use dice to take away the Weeping Angels in Thunder Fortress.
It is also one of the few memories that contains password-related content.
345, 453, 543
A few possibilities to taste.
The process is complicated, but in my mind, it happens in an instant.
“Hey, 543 is really okay?”
Ji Xun thought it was a coincidence.
But next time, his expression froze.
Because, he really translated the encrypted message: "I should have been, or will be, contaminated, but I can't detect it. I suspect that He can read my thoughts and influence my behavior. So , I used the relic to tamper with some of my memories and cognitions in advance. No matter what I told you, please don’t give it to others. The plan has been laid. Be careful.”
"This"
The moment Ji Xun saw himself deciphering this sentence, goosebumps burst out all over his body.
He immediately realized something: "Xie Guozhong tampered with his memory of throwing dice so that no one would spy on him. Then he left it as an encrypted message and wrote it here!"
Tampering with your own memory?
Holy shit
This old Xie can really do it!
Ji Xun decoded the encrypted content and instantly realized that this was a serious matter.
Before, I just felt it was urgent and dangerous.
But now seeing Xie Guozhong's encrypted content, Ji Xun instantly felt a thick cloud of conspiracy hanging over his head.
More than just danger.
It’s also very complicated!
And all the points of involvement are on this jar.
“His”
Ji Xun's mind turned around and he thought of too many things in an instant.
At the same time, I sucked in a breath of cold air.
Like falling into an ice cave.
Goosebumps exploded.
The whole person's thoughts are completely awake.
"If 'Xie Guozhong' has been contaminated, but he still wants me to go to Jia Yu, that is to say, this is not Lao Xie's own original intention, but the overall conspiracy of going to the leader of the Thirteen Knights, "Light Chaser""< br>
When Ji Xun thought of this, a cold sweat broke out on his back
If Xie Guozhong had really been contaminated, this matter was a conspiracy from beginning to end!
It turns out! The previous round-ups were all part of the bureau.
Ji Xun even felt that even if he failed to kill the five round-up teams at the first time, he would still be able to escape "with luck" in the end. >
Because his escape is a necessary part of the subsequent layout.
And "Xie Guozhong" didn't mention the code word before, which means that he really doesn't know about it.
From this, Ji Xun is 100% sure that the Lao Xie he just saw has been contaminated!
His behavior was affected by some unknown existence.
