Chapter 282: The one who supports the fire
“Oh, Ayu, you are still playing cards here, but you don’t know that the entire Sinless City has exploded! That is the flying dragon attacking the city! The flying dragon is attacking the city!”
"Oh, I don't care about you, I'm going to go outside to inquire about the news."
"."
In the screenwriter's office, a blabbering guy ran in and said this After hearing the news, he hurried out to watch the fun again.
That's the theater troupe's warehouse manager.
In the theater troupe, the down-and-out screenwriter and the warehouse manager are brothers with similar salaries.
As soon as the person left, Ji Xun and Jia Yu's eyes froze for a moment.
But that’s all.
The two sides continued to play cards.
If true, then this news is indeed a major news that can be called a turning point in history.
It has a great impact on the federal government.
However, for individuals, the impact is far less significant.
Prior to this, the Federation had not discovered any other human civilization.
But now, some "powerful men of unknown origin" have destroyed the Cao family's Cross New City.
When the sense of crisis strikes, it is inevitable that people will feel expectant and curious.
It was like a ship drifting in the vast sea, drifting alone for three thousand years;
Now, they saw the sails of another ship.
There is currently almost no force in the Federation that can destroy the war fortress built for wilderness hunting like Cross New City.
Even if there is.
There was no motive to take action.
And "Flying Dragon Attacks the City".
This is beyond everyone's knowledge.
Before the giant dragon was discovered in the Old Continent, no one in the Eastern Continent had ever seen it, and it only existed in legends.
Even now, only a few people have seen some dragon-born creatures in other dimensions.
This alone reveals a lot of information.
Strong strangers, giant dragons, those who come are not good.
However, Ji Xun was looking forward to it.
Even the Eastern Continent is boundless.
No one knows how vast Middle-earth is.
The current scale of the Federation's development in the Old Continent is estimated to be only a small corner of the territory of the Talon Dynasty that lasted three thousand years.
If there were only humans like federal card masters.
A little too lonely.
Now that the news has come out, things seem to be different.
A lamp was lit in the dark cave, and the world became more wonderful.
"You don't seem surprised?"
"There is a high probability that it is one of the other civilizational fires left by the Talon Dynasty three thousand years ago. Since they all left the old continent, and now they are back, we will encounter them again. It’s normal. Moreover, some of the ancient prophecies circulated by our Illuminati also predict something.”
“Oh?”
“There will be detailed information later. Urgent.”
“.”
Ji Xun and Jia Yu were not strangers to each other.
After playing cards for nearly a week, the two of them became familiar with each other.
Apart from his status as a light chaser, Jia Yu’s character is actually quite good.
Erudite and talkative, his views are also to his liking.
The two of them chatting now is like chatting between friends, nothing special.
Ji Xun listened and waited with peace of mind.
After all, this mushroom head is the leader of the Thirteen Knights. Even if he stays in the screenwriter's office all the time, he can still keep track of the movements of the major forces in the federation, so he must have his own intelligence system.
Instead of going out and listening to all kinds of strange gossip that is being circulated.
It’s better to wait.
Everyone in the Honglou building was exploding outside, but the two people in the warehouse were just playing cards patiently.
Sure enough.
After two games of cards, footsteps sounded outside the door again.
“Oh, after such a big thing happened, do you still have the heart to play cards here?”
The voice arrived before the people arrived.
The voice is very charming, making people feel like they are falling.
Jia Yu shook his head and smiled slightly as he listened, seeming a little helpless to the man outside the door.
He glanced at Ji Xun with a strange look and said, "She might make fun of her in a while. Well, forget it, you will know in a while."
Ji Xun understood. This look seemed to be originally intended to remind him to pay attention to something.
But I feel like it’s not necessary.
As Mushroom Tou hesitated to speak, Ji Xun became even more curious about who the visitor was.
Since he spoke like this, the person coming here must know Jia Yu's identity, or even be one of the Thirteen Knights.
Without thinking much, a woman wearing a half-face gas mask walked in at the door.
Looking at the hunter's costume, but as soon as she came in and took off the gas mask, Ji Xun's eyes immediately froze: "This"
Because a picture appeared in front of him A very familiar face.
Song Yu!
Not only the appearance, but also the temperament are exactly the same.
She smiled brightly at herself, with neat white teeth.
At this moment, Ji Xun suddenly thought that he had traveled through time again and saw the innocent fisherman.
Although I know this must be some kind of hallucination.
But at this moment, he has the extravagant hope of wanting this illusion to exist forever.
Jia Yu, who was on the side, also noticed his emotional fluctuations. He raised his head and shook his head and said, "Stop teasing him. This is Irene, the "fire supporter" of this generation. This is Ji Xun. "
As he spoke, he explained: "This is her professional ability "Void Promise". What is illusion is reality. You will see whatever you most want to see. "
"."
Ji Xun suddenly realized when he heard this, his eyes slowly converged, but he sighed in his heart.
Hearing Jia Yu speak, he said it directly The woman who came in complained about her own spell: "Oh, leader, can't you let me maintain a sense of mystery? ”
But he didn't continue to use spells.
The appearance on her face changed like a mirage and turned into a charming face.
She has big bright brown waves, pretty red lips, and a wonderful figure.
Obviously she is as delicate as a girl, but her eyes have all the charm of a mature woman.
This is a woman whose age is hard to tell from her appearance.
Ji Xun looked at this person and took the initiative to say hello: "Hello, Ji Xun."
Just now he was able to get hit even at level 4 without any defense. The strength of the person in front of him was also unfathomable.
And since Jia Yu said that she is a member of the Thirteen Knights, even if she is not a legendary powerhouse, she is almost there.
Irene smiled and said: "I know. It was you who solved the scarlet altar in the treasure house before."
As she said that, she looked at Ji Xun with silky eyes and stretched out her hand: "Hello, Erin~ Nice to meet you. I've met you before, but I guess you don't know."
"."
Ji Xun shook hands very gentlemanly.
It’s normal for the other party’s disguise ability to become an illusion, and it’s normal for him to have no impression after seeing him.
Irene did not shy away from her gaze and looked Ji Xun up and down: "Oh~ you are more handsome than before."
Ji Xun responded politely: " Thank you. Miss Erin is beautiful too.”
Irene covered her mouth and smiled charmingly: "You are really good at talking~"
Jia Yu on the side seemed to have long been accustomed to her charm that was nowhere to be found. She glowed like a light bulb wherever she went, looking a little helpless. Interrupted and said: "What's going on outside?"
Irene was interrupted by these confusing words and glanced at Jia Yu angrily, but also said: "The news has been confirmed. A seven-level head The fire dragon attacked the city, the lord Cao Tianxi was killed, and the Cross City was destroyed."
When she was talking about business, there was also a depth in her crystal eyes, and she added: "But the fire dragon is not a real dragon, but a real dragon. It’s the animal form transformed by a human card master.”
Jia Yu pondered: “Human?”
Eileen said: "Yes. What happened is that a few strangers came from nowhere in the Cross City. They didn't speak the common language, and their clothes and equipment were different. Then they were informed by the Cao family's information The people discovered it and thought it was a spy from another family. A conflict broke out between the two sides. In the end, one of them turned into a fire dragon, killed the lord of the Cao family, and then destroyed most of the city."
Jia After hearing this, Yu's expression no longer changed, as if he had confirmed something, he just asked: "Are they card masters?"
Irene said: "Yes, they are all card masters! In addition to transforming into dragons, those guys , and also used spell cards. However, the school of spells is a bit old and the power is very strong. It is suspected that it is directly inherited from the Gutalun spell. The few spells currently used are [Storm Wheel Cutting Technique]. [Fire Dragon Forbidden Curse], [Mysterious Art: Waterfall Control Technique]. In addition to the seventh level of dragon transformation, the others also have more or less dragon-born characteristics."
"."
He is indeed a professional intelligence officer.
This Irene describes the battle at Croisette Neustadt in detail.
The two people who were listening felt as if they were on the battlefield and saw with their own eyes the scene of the fire dragon breathing fire and killing people over the city.
“No wonder”
Ji Xun muttered.
He has some dragonborn materials in his own career card, so he has a more accurate understanding of the strength of dragonborn transformation than others.
A seventh-level card master who transforms into a flying dragon has almost crushing combat power in this era.
Although the Cao family is very strong, no one can handle that seventh level.
It is not surprising that Cross New City was destroyed.
But there are also some doubts.
The conditions for fusion of dragonborn materials are also very demanding on physical fitness. Not to mention that the materials are very difficult to find, there are not many people in the entire federation who can fuse dragonborn materials.
But almost all of those "unknown origins" have dragon-born characteristics.
This is very thought-provoking.
Ji Xun only got one feeling from this information: the other party has the arrogance and confidence brought by absolute strength!
"There are some rumors circulating on the black market now, saying that our 'Illuminati' is behind the trouble, saying that we have secret connections with the revolutionary army and are plotting to subvert the federation. There are also people looking for channels to contact the leader You, ask about cooperation."
"But the five major council members are not stupid, they should have guessed that it may be other card master civilizations. Now Innocence City has issued temporary control. , I am afraid that the other party will sneak into the Eastern Continent.”
"The Cao family tried their best to kill two enemies. One of the corpses is already on the way back to Innocence City. It should be clear when the information on the corpse is analyzed." "."
After Irene finished speaking, the expressions of the three people in the room became solemn.
Jia Yu also fell into deep thought.
Irene knew that the leader would think about it for a long time, and she expressed her judgment: "It's very strong. Judging from the current intelligence, those people are likely to have an uninterrupted inheritance. At least they won't be like us. Blocked by the Oran royal family for two thousand years."
Ji Xun felt the same way in his mind.
The opponent has level seven, and behind this strength, there must be a complete inheritance of the card master system.
The difference is immediately apparent.
The Eastern Continent where the Card Master Federation is located is already lacking in resources, and the Oran royal family has blocked most of the inheritance in order to maintain their rule, which has delayed it for more than two thousand years.
If we really want to deal with a card master civilization that has no epochal inheritance, the consequences will not be optimistic.
The destruction of Caojia Cross New City is probably just a microcosm of the future.
As for living in peace, it is almost impossible.
It is human nature to prey on the weak.
And this world is inherently cruel. When a powerful civilization discovers a weak civilization, slavery and plunder are almost inevitable.
Even if the other party is really not malicious, this attack is just an accident.
So in the future, what qualifications do the card masters of the Eastern Continent have to explore the Old Continent with those people?
Even if you can go, 80% of them will be used as "cannon fodder" for space exploration.
So just for this reason, the two civilizations are almost destined to be hostile.
Fortunately, there is a natural chasm like the World Rift. It is estimated that the geographical advantage can be used to block it for a while.
The five major council members decisively ordered to block people returning from the old continent, and there was nothing wrong with this decision.
But the effect is very limited.
The flying dragon attacking the city is just the beginning.
What if there are card masters of level seven or above in the other civilization?
That is already a level of power beyond the current awareness of everyone in the Federation.
You can even use force to absolutely crush the current federation.
For a moment, Ji Xun's thoughts were racing in his mind.
But obviously, some people see the same information at different heights.
After pondering for a moment, Jia Yu finally spoke.
"At present, it seems that they are enemies rather than friends. And they are very strong."
"Dragon-born creatures are born with a higher bloodline, and their average combat power will be half a level higher than that of ordinary Warcraft. above. In other words, the environment in which those people live is much worse than that in the Eastern Continent, which means that the card masters in that environment will also be very strong."
"The inheritance of those people is very complete, and there is a high probability that there are card masters above the seventh level. This is the most unsolvable point at present."
"The only good news is that since they are card masters, then that Eighty percent of the surviving 'Xinhuo' was not contaminated by the old gods."
"."
The heights are different. What Jia Yu saw was the Card Master civilization.
If there is a complete card master civilization passed down, from a certain perspective, this is indeed a good thing.
But it’s not good news for the current upper class society in the Federation.
The "Illuminati Priory" has never been a powerful person in history, nor a conspirator.
They stand taller.
More like an observer of civilization.
They walk in the shadow of inconspicuous history, and only when they reach the turning point of certain civilizations will they choose to live in this world.
If you are weak, you will be beaten. This is the law of nature.
Who is in power in the Federation has no effect on them at all.
When Ji Xun heard this analysis, he also felt that it made sense.
From a civilizational perspective, as long as it is not contaminated by the old gods, it makes no difference who is the ruler.
However, things are obviously not that simple.
Jia Yu thought of something at this time, narrowed his eyes slightly, and changed the subject: "But... the people in that team are all dragonborn, and there is also a guy who can directly transform into a dragon. This is not something that ordinary professional cards can do . Even if there is, the dragonborn professional card is very difficult to fuse, and the probability of a whole team of dragonborn is very small. Another point is that high-level bloodlines have natural resistance to the faith of the old gods, so I estimate that those people may have transformed the bloodline. Or maybe they already have dragon blood to a certain extent?"
Hearing this, Irene said in surprise: "Humans have dragon blood?"
Hearing this, Ji Xun frowned slightly. Screw the river.
I have integrated professional cards with Dragonborn materials. He has a say in how difficult it is.
The other card master's civilization has not been broken because of its inheritance, so Qiang can understand it.
But not everyone has the physical strength to fuse the Dragonborn Card, right?
As for human transformation of bloodline.
Ji Xun himself was infected with the [Blood Plague].
He knew only too well how risky this kind of transformation by foreign blood was. If it weren't for his special situation and the suppression of catastrophic objects, he would have been distorted long ago.
Acquired bloodline transformation cannot be applied on a large scale.
Jia Yu’s statement is also the most reliable.
So.
This mushroom head obviously thought of this too.
He continued: "According to legend, dragons are powerful and domineering, greedy and cunning, sexually promiscuous, and ambitious. They are natural overlords. The dragon descendants born from their mating with other species are actually They are also slaves controlled by the dragon clan. Within the territory, the dragon is the only master. In front of the dragon, they have innate blood suppression of any dragon-born creature. The dragon will enslave everything in the territory."
< br>Irene heard that the tone was wrong and asked: "Chief, what does this mean?"
Jia Yu pondered for a moment, and then said the conclusion he deduced: "It is very possible that those people are not from a Card Master civilization where humans are in power."
Hearing this, the room was silent again.
When Ji Xun heard this, he thought a lot.
If a civilization is not dominated by humans, then the problem will be huge.
The current Federation is really going to be defeated by those card masters who don’t know where they come from. Doesn’t that mean that they are war slaves under slaves?
This is no longer an internal fight between civilized regimes.
It is a battle between races.
Jia Yu didn’t elaborate much, and let out a long breath, "Let’s wait for the news. The Bai family should get more information from the corpses. Once it is confirmed that those people are really born with dragon blood , the situation I deduced may come true."
"Yes."
Irene also nodded solemnly and asked: "Chief, what can we do now? ”
Jia Yu is worthy of being a light chaser.
From this limited information, he has already deduced the war pattern for many years to come.
He said: "The opponent has clearly identified a seventh-level card master. It is very likely that this is just a group of vanguards. It is almost certain that the current strength of the Federation cannot defend any city in the Old Continent. So we really have to fight against it. , it can only be guerrilla tactics, and once the Nuggets Pier is captured by those people, we may be blocked in the Eastern Continent."
After a pause, he continued: "Do the worst first. In the future, Innocence City will definitely become a war fortress guarding the Eastern Continent. The main battlefield will be moved there. Before being blocked, we should try our best to create some hope for a comeback." br>
Irene nodded: "Yeah."
As the Illuminati's chief intelligence officer, she already knew what she had to do.
“.”
Ji Xun also thought of this.
The abyssal fissure is a natural chasm that can protect the current Dongda Road Card Division Federation.
But it’s also mutual.
Now the only way in and out of the Old Continent is through those artifact chains.
If someone really blocks the Nugget Pier, it will be difficult to rush out.
After listening to Jia Yu's deduction, Ji Xun also felt that he might have to leave for the Old Continent as soon as possible.
The resources of the Eastern Continent are too poor, and seventh-level materials are extremely difficult to find.
If you are really trapped, you may really be trapped in the field of low-level card masters for the rest of your life.
News of the destruction of the Cao family's Cross New City spread throughout the entire federation in a very short period of time.
In a rare move, the five major council members did not continue to fight among themselves. Instead, they ordered the mobilization of troops and stationed them at Innocence City and Nugget Pier.
At the same time, mechanical war fortresses also began to be built.
The old continent was like a gold mine, and it would not escape. The five major congressmen could just slowly dig it out.
The only difference is the number of shareholders, who digs more and gets less.
But now, an unknown enemy appears.
The sense of urgency came all of a sudden.
No one would naively think that those "people of unknown origin" would share the gold mine of the Old World with them in good faith.
There can only be war and conquest.
The entire federal leadership is caught in a sense of impending crisis.
at the same time.
Cross New Town.
The originally prosperous Hunting New City is now full of ruins.
On steel walls and various buildings, fluid forms that solidify after melting at high temperatures can be seen everywhere.
A few guys wearing three-thousand-talen retro-style clothes were leisurely repairing in the ruins.
A huge wild boar monster was roasting on the bonfire in front of them.
There are still many survivors in the city, but they are not aware of what happened at the moment.
No one dared to provoke these "mysterious people" who had just killed the Cao family lord's mansion.
A sturdy middle-aged man with red hair sat on the ruins.
Just sitting there, he exudes a domineering aura like a Warcraft lord.
At this time, another card master who had just finished searching for souls threw away the body in his hand and got the information.
"Legion Commander, it has now been confirmed that these guys are the same lineage that fled to the Eastern Wasteland three thousand years ago. What is it called the 'Card Master Federation' now? They have just entered Middle-earth a few years ago"< br>
"Haha, the strongest card master is only at the sixth level? The Eastern Wasteland is indeed as barren as the legend says. Then there is no threat to the card master federation."
"Yes. . I wonder why there are so many low-level card masters in such a big city. I originally wanted to try these guys’ methods, but none of them could fight them.”
“The Augustus royal family is as good as ever. Stupidity. Three thousand years ago, he was greedy for royal power and caused the collapse of the empire. Now he has fled to the Eastern Wasteland and blocked the Ka Master inheritance. Haha, he is simply seeking his own death."
"Send a message to the empire, and wait for the backup troops to arrive, and immediately conquer the Eastern Wasteland. It just so happens that we need a lot of 'cannon fodder' to explore those extra-dimensional spaces. Those war slaves are perfect"
"Yes ! Lord Legion."
