Chapter 425 A Gift from Three Thousand Years Ago
Ji Xun used his shadow to confirm the status of the team of one hundred defectors, and murderous intent suddenly burst into his eyes.
He judged the strength of the team members from their armor and military ranks, and murmured: "A seventh-level colonel commander, and two sixth-level deputies."
This was pretty much what he expected. .
From the current point of view, these "defectors" are the bait to lure Talon's senior officials out of the city.
Now the mousetrap has been triggered and the angel is severely wounded.
Accordingly, most of the danger has passed.
The highest level card master who entered the extradimensional space in the southern continent was level seven. In other words, the upper limit of difficulty for adventurers in the space "S-level plot" should be around level eight.
Correspondingly, level A difficulty should be level seven, which may have some special means.
Given Ji Xun’s current strength, this shouldn’t be a big problem as long as it doesn’t trigger any other hidden plots.
And he speculated that most of the A-level difficulty assessment of Space Will was on the way to find these defectors on the battlefield.
Instead of killing.
However, Ji Xun used Ivan's space talent to easily locate the two [Space Rough Stones] in this mountain col.
This has avoided most plot risks.
But this is a battlefield after all, and Ji Xun alone is not sure that he can instantly kill this group of people.
Thinking of this, he decisively took out the psychic scroll.
Infused with magical power, the scroll suddenly shines brightly.
In the blink of an eye, two beautiful figures slowly appeared in the black nine-pointed star formation.
It is Chujiu and Nanjing.
Seeing the reinforcements coming, Ji Xun did not hesitate and shouted: "Do it!"
The three of them had already discussed detailed tactics, and as soon as they finished speaking, Ji Xun rushed towards the mountain col.
Chu Jiu and Nan Jing followed closely behind.
In the mountain col, the Imperial Guard team was still undergoing renovations.
But suddenly, the seventh-level commander Luoden looked stern.
As the commander of the royal guards, he immediately sensed three powerful auras and shouted: "Enemy attack!"
As expected of an elite army, with this order, a hundred people around Luoden immediately gathered into a battle formation and entered a fighting state.
In the blink of an eye, three figures, black, white, and blue, rushed over.
Ji Xun squinted at the battle formation in front of him, without the slightest concern about evading, and bumped into the black knight holding a heavy shield in the front row.
Judging from the reaction, that group of defectors were elite.
This battle efficiency is the most perfect tacit understanding Ji Xun has ever seen.
They immediately used various legion tactics to limit the rush to the formation.
The ground instantly turned into quicksand, and the surrounding air became more and more imprisoned. Before Ji Xun could get closer to a hundred meters, vines all over the ground were already entangled. And directly opposite, there are individual heavy mechanical artillery pieces that are shining with magic energy!
If Ji Xun really rushes forward like this, he is afraid that he will turn into a ball of ashes before he even gets close.
However, just when he was about to be controlled, a space crack appeared in the void, and Ji Xun stepped into it. When he reappeared, he was already face to face in the middle of the war.
“Not good!”
Seeing the target disappear, the hundred-man team immediately secretly thought something was wrong, but it was not without any countermeasures.
As soon as Ji Xun landed, several daggers poked out of the void around him.
The lurking assassins all stabbed Ji Xun who was rushing into the formation.
“Keng!”
“Keng!”
"Keng!"
Fire splattered.
In the three-headed demon state, Ji Xun's bronze skin was secretly flowing, and there was a thick layer of Gang Qi.
Even if these daggers pierced the body-protecting Gangqi, they were already 90% exhausted. When they touched the skin again, they only made a few shallow marks.
Ji Xun didn't care about others, his goal from beginning to end was to go to this seventh level!
"Ba Fist, Earth Cry!"
Ji Xun raised his hand and punched, which was the most powerful killing move.
The fist was wrapped with layers of ripples that affected the void, and he punched the seventh-level commander in the chest.
With his current strength, this punch is really going to hit him hard, even if he is at the seventh level, he will be severely damaged.
However, Commander Luoden looked at the murderous intention coming towards him, without any intention of avoiding it, but there was doubt in his eyes, as if he had recognized several magical mysteries integrated into this move: " The God of Destruction? Gluttony? Who is this guy?”
There is no time to think during a battle.
In the blink of an eye, Ji Xun punched forward.
However, the fist did not hit the target as expected, but stopped more than ten centimeters from the man's chest.
“Space barrier?”
Ji Xun’s pupils suddenly shrank.
Although he was not surprised at all that his test attack could not hurt the opponent.
Ji Xun was slightly surprised, and at the same time, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and his heart was full of fighting spirit: "No wonder, this is the difficulty that an A-level plot should have."
What is happening in front of him The ability this guy showed should be another [Diamond 5-Star Gazer Warlock].
But this is much better than the sixth-level deacon Ji Xun once encountered.
Almost the moment he punched, the expressionless commander suddenly turned over a spell card in his hand. The moment he poured the spell power into it, several "Blades of the Void" appeared in Ji's hand. Xunmianmen.
This understatement of counterattack is enough to kill almost any enemy at close range, even the seventh level!
However, Ji Xun's current grasp of the laws of space is not the same as before.
As early as the moment the opponent used the spell, he sensed the position where the Void Blade would appear. He stepped skillfully into the air and avoided the black blades with almost no risk.
“Huh?”
Obviously the other party didn’t expect that Ji Xun could avoid it, so he let out a soft eh.
However, before he could think about it, several flying knives quickly penetrated the air and stabbed him.
Commander Luoden is proficient in the laws of space, and of course he immediately sensed the fluctuations of flying knives piercing the air.
However, before he could wonder why the opponent was using such an obviously useless move, he instinctively blocked it with a space barrier.
However, the next second, he suddenly understood, and suddenly thought in his heart: "It turns out that this flying knife is just a bait to test the distance!"
But it was already too late.
Ji Xun had already judged the thickness of the folding space of the barrier and punched out.
The deacon of the Holy See who also knew space spells he met last time, he dealt with it very awkwardly for the first time.
Now that I have experience in dealing with it, I can just repeat the old tricks.
The precise distance has been determined. Normally, this punch will definitely hit the opponent's body.
But at this time, the accident happened again.
Na Luoden knew that he couldn't avoid it. He was surprised for a moment, but then a scornful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, as if to say: "You are too naive."
A strange scene happened immediately.
His chest was like a big hole leading to the endless void, and this destructive punch actually hit the empty space.
Ji Xun felt as if his fist energy was being released into the endless void, and he immediately realized something: "The Star Gazer Warlock's exclusive demonic magic - Starry Sky Exile!"
As expected! They were the Imperial Guards of the Talon Dynasty three thousand years ago, and this magical and mysterious art came at a glance.
Ji Xun was amazed because this sequence was almost lost in the Eastern Wasteland, let alone the void magic-level secret technique "Starry Sky Exile"!
It is said that a card master who masters this magical skill is equivalent to having a channel connecting the endless starry sky.
Each of the fifty-two magical mysteries has its own merits.
The power of this secret method is that as long as the channel can withstand it, it can theoretically banish anything, physical matter, including energy attacks!
If I want to talk about the shortcomings, it is that the consumption of spells is very alarming.
But compared to its function, this shortcoming is simply negligible.
“It’s really a bug-like ability.”
When Ji Xun saw that his punch failed, a helpless smile appeared in his eyes.
With this ability, almost any attack is meaningless until the opponent's spell power is exhausted.
“It’s a bit troublesome. Now it seems that it will be difficult to kill quickly.”
The moment Ji Xun realized that his attack had failed, he dodged the opponent's attack again.
From the first moment the opponent showed "Starry Sky Exile", he knew that his ability to kill quickly was unlikely.
As expected, the defector in the A-level plot difficulty is a seventh-level person with special abilities.
Fortunately, Ji Xun also has two powerful helpers.
The moment he rushed into the war, Chujiu and Nan Jing also rushed over.
Nan Jing used a large-scale group control spell [Arena] to instantly trap hundreds of people in the valley.
Another five-eyed strange cat was channeled with one hand, and a chaotic spiritual field swept over him, making the enemy look confused for an instant.
But Chujiu’s attack seemed simple and crude.
She walked straight over, the sky filled with ice and flowers, and she used the mysterious magic "No Life Forbidden Ruin".
Ji Xun had never dared to break into the legion battle formation before, but she had no scruples at all.
Wherever it passed, the quicksand turned into hard ice, the vines froze into ice sculptures, and even the elements were emptied by the extremely cold realm. The huge valley turned into a world of ice and snow.
Chujiu holds the [Sismark Holy Grail], blessed by endless divine power, like the arrival of the Snow Queen, walking step by step.
Before she received the luck of royal power, her unparalleled and overbearing royal power was like the power of a dragon, so overwhelming that hundreds of people dared not look directly at her. Every step I took, I could hear the crackling sound of ice.
Not far away, the black knights wearing heavy armor, the protective spells on their bodies were like extinguished flames, and in the blink of an eye, the armors were covered with thick frost. He died instantly.
In just a few breaths, most of the hundred-man Guards Corps was frozen to the ground and unable to move.
The impact of high-level frost laws and spiritual compound spells froze even thoughts.
Even if this team is all elite, most of them will be killed or injured.
Even if someone is not dead, it will be difficult to get out of trouble and fight again.
Ji Xun saw this scene with his peripheral vision and exclaimed in his heart: "It's so amazing. It seems that they have really received a lot of powerful inheritance in the imperial mausoleum"
It's been a long time since I've seen two old friends take action, especially Chujiu.
When I look at it now, I am really impressed.
Although the White Queen's inanimate realm was not directed at him, Ji Xun also felt a fatal threat. Is this something that a sixth-level card master can possess?
Wide area coverage, no escape.
With continuous frost damage, the enemy will die sooner or later.
However, what was even more surprising was the seventh-level commander on the opposite side!
Roden looked at Chujiu and Nan Jing who suddenly took action, and his expression changed suddenly: "The White Queen? And Mr. Nan's magical mysterious method "Yu Shen Ting"? ”
As the leader of the Imperial Guard, how come he didn’t see the way the two women took action?
Not to mention the [White Queen], the Talon royal family’s secret inheritance that has been passed down for tens of thousands of years. Well, even the "Royal God Court" is also a unique lineage of the high priest.
Why are you here?
Still appear at the same time!
As if he had figured out something, Luoden's face showed a touch of relief and surprise, and he said with great emotion: "That's it. It turns out that Master Nan's purpose of asking us to defect is not to let us escape with the original stone. That's it."
It is definitely not normal for the heirs of the royal family and the heirs of the high priest line to appear in the rebels at the same time.
Ji Xun doesn’t know how Space Will will patch it to make up for this problem.
He also had a guess that Chujiu and Nanjing's actions would trigger some hidden plots.
The facts are as expected.
This is a plot mission in an extra-dimensional space, and Ji Xun and the others dealt with these defectors without mercy.
What they never expected was that the battle turned out to be one-sided!
Although the three of them are unparalleled in combat power, it is not difficult to kill this group of people.
But at least the seventh-level commander who has mastered the laws of space will never be killed so easily. His spatial ability is all about escaping. Even if the three of them join forces, there is a high chance that the other party will escape.
But just now, Ji Xun punched him.
He could have used Star Exile to save the damage commander again, but he stood there blankly and allowed himself to be punched through his heart.
The life flowed from the mutilated body rapidly, but there was no trace of fear or regret on Luoden’s face.
On the contrary, this officer with handsome blond hair showed a relieved smile towards Chujiu and Nan Jing.
The pupils that gradually dilated seemed to see the future of civilization.
While grinning, scarlet blood seeped out between his teeth. Even in death, the commander of the Imperial Guard was still smiling.
As soon as he died, the others were completely unable to resist, and in the blink of an eye, all the hundred-man team was extinct.
Ji Xun and the others did not expect that this plot mission would go so smoothly.
Of course they also discovered that there was something fishy about the death of this seventh-level leader.
The two women looked at Ji Xun with doubts on their faces.
They thought Ji Xun had used some secret method to kill this seventh-level man.
However, Ji Xun shook his head.
He was vaguely aware that this defection was not that simple.
Ji Xun didn’t think much and took off the bag from the body’s waist.
As soon as you open it, you will see two stones with a black and purple halo like night pearls.
This is the space treasure [Space Rough Stone] in the plot prompt.
Before the three of them thought about it, Enlightenment also appeared.
"You have completed the A-level plot and killed the defectors. Killed the legion leader Rodon and obtained 14,000 combat merits and 1 gold medal."
"Trigger the A-level hidden plot: Guards The command of the military commander, Colonel Roton. You have obtained two [Space Stones], and you and your teammates need to ensure that they do not fall into the hands of the rebels."
It is not surprising that Ji Xun completed the mission.
But there is another hidden mission?
Ji Xun was also confused.
There seems to be something wrong with this mission prompt. It was clearly stated before that you could get a reward by bringing it back to the imperial city, but why did it change to just not being robbed?
Ji Xun did not dare to expose this thing.
Since he could sense it through Ivan before, other people in the rebels might also be able to sense it.
Just like the mysterious insect mother Kalakta, the outer god.
Thinking of this, Ji Xun threw the two stones to Ivan.
This little loli swallowed it in one bite.
This is another BUG.
Ivan is no longer in the plot, so even if the outside god comes, I'm afraid he won't be able to find these two rough stones again.
As for the hidden plot that is triggered, if you can’t figure it out, just search for souls.
Nanjing also immediately started taking action.
However, as soon as she took action, she frowned: "These defectors are the Royal Guards of the Imperial City. The bad news is that their memories are blocked and their souls cannot be searched. This is every A mark of loyalty that every Imperial Guard has."
"."
It was normal for Ji Xun to think about it.
Otherwise, if an imperial guard is captured and his soul is searched, the secret of the entire imperial city's defense will be completely exposed.
It is normal to have soul restrictions.
But just when Ji Xun and Chujiu felt that the clue was about to be lost, Nan Jing said again: "The good news is that I happen to know the method of unlocking this blockade. Because this is my Nan Jing The family’s unique secret technique.”
This means that the only people in the entire extra-dimensional space who can unlock this forbidden secret technique are people from the Nan family.
"Could it be."
When Ji Xun heard this, he suddenly felt like he could dig deeper into the hidden plot.
The thought was not strong enough, and he didn’t know where it was pointing.
The extraordinary properties of these more than a hundred corpses cannot be wasted. While Nan Jing was searching for souls, he was absorbing them while also packing up the loot that could be taken out of the space.
These are the imperial guards after all, and their equipment can be said to be the pinnacle of the era.
Whether it is mechanical equipment or spell cards, they are all produced by the royal family.
After some searching, Ji Xun gained a lot.
Not only did I get a large number of spell cards that can bring out space, but I also got several individual black technology machines.
Originally, the difficulty of the A-level plot is high, and it seems that this is also one of the rewards of spatial will.
At this time, Nan Jing’s soul collection also came to fruition.
Ji Xun looked at her with a complicated expression and asked, "What's wrong?"
In fact, he had already guessed that this soul-sealing method seemed to be deliberately set up for Nanjing.
Only she can see the truth.
Nanjing responded: "They don't seem to be 'defectors'."
When Ji Xun and Chujiu heard this, they were surprised: "Not defectors?"
Isn’t this prompted by the plot?
"Hmm."
Because of this, Nanjing's expression was particularly strange: "Part of their memories have been tampered with. But in the memory box of Luoden's psychic, it's not like that. They defected not because the superficial tyrant was stupid and killed their family, but because of the secret mission of my Nan family ancestors."
The thoughts in Ji Xun's mind became clearer and clearer: "They defected. The real reason is because of the secret mission arranged by your ancestor?"
Nan Jing looked at the corpses on the ground with a bit more respect.
Although this is a plot space, in history, these people may have sat like this before.
Bearing the name of defecting, he did something
She added: "Well. This Commander Luoden actually doesn't know the purpose of the mission. His memory that was modified before was my ancestor who instructed them to steal [ Space Stone], and then went out of the city to build some kind of large teleportation array, seemingly to leave a way out for the royal family. But judging from his thoughts before his death, the purpose of this mission was just an illusion. The real purpose was to get these two [Space Stones]. "The Space Stone] is delivered to us."
"This"
Hearing this, Ji Xun instantly felt that some of the missing information puzzle pieces suddenly came together.
It is also the most critical part!
He understood the plan immediately!
Originally, this group of "defectors" left the city to secretly build a teleportation array.
This plan seems ridiculous.
After all, the alien gods among the rebels are not that easy to fool.
But it is actually a commonly used tactic in sieges.
Even if the rebels knew the purpose of the defectors, they would not stop them. After all, only when the Augustus royal family evacuates and the defenders lose their determination to fight to the death can Behemoth, the imperial capital that is armed to the teeth, be broken.
There may also be a strategic game between the two parties' senior leaders.
This plan may not be too clever, but no matter how you look at it, it is the most reasonable choice in the current war situation.
It is also the only plan that allows the Augustus royal family and some senior officials to escape from the imperial city with a small probability.
However,
The truth is!
This is the second level of the plan!
The real purpose behind the defection is on the fifth floor!
The southern priest did not plan the war situation at that time, but planned it three thousand years later!
That thought flowed through the whole body like an electric current, making Ji Xun suddenly enlightened and at the same time, his scalp became numb instantly.
In that trance, he seemed to see a mysterious person appearing in front of them, smiling and waving.
Just like the commander who was smiling before his death, it was a vision of the future.
At this moment, Ji Xun felt the deep meaning of the planner from three thousand years ago!
These two [Space Rough Stones] are not just some space plot missions, they are also gifts given to them personally by Nan Shenyu, the last high priest of Talon three thousand years ago!
A gift for the firebrand in Donghuang!
