Chapter 265: Surprise harvest from killing the shadow

Chapter 265 The surprise harvest from killing the shadow

Ji Xun cleared away the undead monsters in a large area near Tongzilou on Hongfan Street.

A relatively safe temporary camp was also set up.

 A group of survivors stayed in the dilapidated building.

 They were frightened for a day and a night, and suffered heavy casualties.

These people were completely exhausted and frightened, and had no intention of wandering around in this dead city full of monsters.

But Ji Xun had no intention of hanging out with them.

The more people there are, the bigger the goal.

 The danger is also greater.

 He also needs a large number of monster corpses to extract extraordinary characteristics.

 Furthermore, he also wanted to try what the "shadow" was like.

 The essence of "crisis" has always been the coexistence of "danger" and "opportunity".

 In this situation, this secret realm of [Shenxu Treasure House] is not a place of death, but a great opportunity.

 If you don’t give it a try, you will feel at a loss no matter what.

the most important is.

 Mushroom Head said before that he "betted his life" in this card game, which does not mean that it will definitely be resolved.

Ji Xun felt that those old believers might not have the means to break the situation.

  It would be great if you can be of some help.

No matter whether it works or not, just try it first.

After all, judging from the current situation, the "clearance method" to leave this secret realm with super-level monsters is definitely not to level up, nor to kill monsters.

 Otherwise, Count Nicholas, the super vampire, would definitely have the last hope of getting out alive.

Ji Xun speculated that completing 80% of the level requires triggering some special conditions.

 After resting for a while, Catalina's tiredness was significantly relieved.

She looked at Ji Xun's thoughtful expression, guessed what was going on, and asked proactively: "Are you going to try 'Shadow'?"

Ji Xun nodded: "Yeah."

Katrina frowned as she heard this, showing a thoughtful look.

 But it seems that this kind of crazy decision is also the normal operation of this guy.

After thinking for a moment, she also thought of what Ji Xun could think of and made a decision: "I'll go with you. Maybe I can help a little."

After the last hero trial, this Silver Mist Rose already had the aura of a superior person in her every move.

 Faced with danger, she did not think of retreating, but also solved the problem.

 You may be alive if you hide here.

 But judging from the current situation, life is temporary.

 If you can't find a way to leave the secret realm, you will be dead sooner or later.

Ji Xun listened and nodded: "Okay."

 The two have a basis for cooperation, so there is nothing to be polite about.

The two of them were about to leave. Song Can on the side saw it and took the initiative to ask: "Brother Ji Xun, can I come with you?"

Ji Xun looked at the fat man with anxious little eyes, thought for a moment, and said, "Of course."

This fat man was a little timid, but Song Yu had a very high opinion of him.

Just because he came to Sinless City alone before, and in such a harsh business environment, he still made "Da Iwan Store" the best in the city at that time, this was already evident.

Ji Xun wouldn’t mind helping if he could.

Song Can watched him agree, his face full of excitement.

 He can still tell who is the thigh.

 Not to mention they are still acquaintances.

In this way, Ji Xun, three people, and Monica, the principal of a dance troupe, left the broken building.

Ji Xun had already figured out a few nearby blocks, and a group of four people walked through the dim ruins of the city.

Ji Xun and Catalina are both capable and decisive people who seldom chat.

 They have become familiar with each other, and they can tell each other's intentions just by looking at each other along the way.

  It is also used to mean that you don’t know how to speak too much.

 But Song Can is very talkative.

 Along the way, the fat man became the atmosphere adjuster.

 Make the atmosphere of the four-person team less monotonous and awkward.

“Brother Ji Xun, why are you so familiar with this area? We had thought of going into the sewer before, but we were not familiar with it and we made the wrong move many times.”

"Ah, when I saw a vampire appear in Hong Lou before, I wanted to run, but before I could run far, we started fighting. Fortunately, Miss Monica saved me, otherwise I would have been killed by the undead monster. "

"Miss Carter, I heard that your Lionheart family recently plans to expand its army to explore the Old World? Is there any need for cooperation? Well. What I mean is, if possible, I want to be your army's exclusive supplier. Although my The Chamber of Commerce is not very famous yet, but I guarantee that the quality and price of the weapons and equipment I provide are absolutely the best. Especially in terms of military machinery, I now have many large machinery factories and most of the mechanics and technicians in my hands. It can be said that I have shares in 80% of the high-end machinery manufacturing in the entire federation. All the mechanical design and drawing manufacturing you need can be met. I think I am the only one in the entire federation who can provide such a huge output."

"Ah, you agreed? Thank you, Miss Carter. If I can get out alive, I will definitely come and visit you."

ˆ “.”

This fat man is quite optimistic.

 Not only chatting, but also discussing business.

 In his words, as long as he is not dead, the business must continue.

In case he gets out alive, the Lionheart family, the number one warlord in the federation, is a big customer.

Furthermore, during this battle at Honglou, Fatty also saw that the future heir to the Lionheart family was most likely to be the Silver Mist Rose in front of him.

Katrina originally had no intention of talking to Song Can.

 The Lionhearts do have business dealings with major chambers of commerce in the federation, but they always talk to the people at the helm.

 In layman’s terms, this fat man is currently “not qualified” to handle business of that level.

But seeing Ji Xun leading him, Catalina took a high look.

However, while chatting, I also discovered that this fat man's strategic vision was surprisingly high.

 To the extent that she has farsightedness than the current elders of the Song family she has come into contact with!

In this fat man's words, he has already predicted that the Federation's future large-scale wars will be largely affected by high-end mechanical equipment. They even made the layout in advance and controlled the source factory.

 The words also hinted that he had guessed the Lionheart family’s plan to expand their army.

Just these two points alone already have the basis for cooperation!

Katrina needed just such a partner, and the two hit it off immediately.

 The four of them walked along, chatting occasionally.

Soon, they came to the underground of another Tongzilou.

 Song Can is still talking about something.

At this time, I didn’t realize that I was surrounded by an underground construction area with cement walls more than ten meters high.

Ji Xun suddenly reminded: "Ahead is the 'P43 Area Boiler Room'. There are many monsters here. Don't take action unless it is absolutely necessary. Try to keep your breath down."

Katrina also heard the movements in the darkness.

The two of them had a tacit understanding for a long time. She didn't even ask, she just said, "Okay!"

But Song Can blinked his little confused eyes, looked at the special magic cannon in his hand, and asked, "Ah, but what should I do if a monster comes charging at me?"

Ji Xun didn't explain much, just said calmly: "Normally, he wouldn't rush over."

Song Can was confused: "Huh???"

Monica, who was silent throughout the whole process, also looked puzzled.

She is a professional intelligence officer of the Oran remnants and knows much more about Ji Xun and Catalina than the average person.

 But I can’t imagine why this guy could say this.

Before they could think too much, some vague monsters could already be seen deep in the sewer.

 They have long arms and legs like spiders and are good at climbing. They are [sewer polluters].

 Fast, poisonous, but crispy.

Ji Xun has killed many people before.

 He took the lead and the four of them continued walking over.

The surroundings were very quiet, and you could clearly hear Fatty’s violent heartbeat of “dong dong” and “dong dong”.

 Out of the four, this guy is the only one who is really scared.

As they got closer, the monsters in the darkness apparently discovered a few humans. After a "squeaking" sound that sounded like mice communicating, countless monsters suddenly rushed over from the other side of the corridor.

 Gushes out like a tide!

Hundreds of monsters filled the entire underground pipe like locusts, sending chills down the spines of those who saw it.

With this posture, Song Can, whose hands were already shaking like chaff, almost couldn't hold back from firing a shot at the group of monsters.

Even Katarina has a few spell cards in her hand, ready to take action at any time.

 But Ji Xun had already dealt with countless waves of monsters of this level yesterday, and his expression remained unchanged.

His hand shook, and the six flying knives were already out of his hand and disappeared into the darkness.

The light was too dark to see clearly what was going on.

 But the perception of Qi is clear.

I could only hear "swish", "swish", "swish" in my ears. The sound of slight skin and flesh tissue cutting was heard intensively.

 Then there was the sound of various monsters falling to the ground.

The monster corridor is obviously full of monsters, but strangely, it seems that there is an invisible barrier around the four of them, and those monsters cannot get closer than ten meters.

Katrina's eardrums flashed in surprise. After all, she knew that Ji Xun had a telekinetic flying knife in his hand.

Song Can and Monica were extremely shocked.

How can monsters be killed like this?

 The four of them walked over easily.

Although it's disgusting to step on a pile of monster corpses covered in slime and blood.

 But that kind of shock hit my heart like a wave.

Only then did Song Can and the two realize that the fact that there were no monsters in the large building was not due to luck.

 But they were all killed by this guy.

Ji Xun was walking in front.

Occasionally encounter a few first- and second-order disasters, and he will deal with them in an instant.

His ability to control Qi is now very good.

 A problem that can be solved with ten points of mantra will never be solved with eleven.

 The battle is often resolved before the burst of movement attracts other monsters.

 Seeing this, Catalina finally understood why Ji Xun did not trigger the "shadow".

 Because these monsters could not force him to use too much strength.

Just like that, Ji Xun used his telekinesis flying knife to clear the way and led Catalina and the three of them all the way.

He is very familiar with the terrain, and his six relic-level flying knives can kill low-level monsters in groups.

This makes the monster city breakout, which was originally a narrow escape, now become like a monster killing game, extremely relaxed.

 The three people behind him didn’t even move a hand during the entire process.

 After killing several waves of monsters, they soon came to a huge underground space.

This silent method of killing monsters almost suppressed the movement to a minimum and did not cause any trouble.

 It wasn’t until they stopped to rest that Song Can and the other three came back to their senses. Is this all over?

“Brother Ji Xun, how good are you?”

“Hey, can I learn the ability of flying knives?”

ˆ “.”

 Song Can knew that Ji Xun was powerful.

 But now that I have seen it with my own eyes, I know that the thigh hug is correct.

Katrina observed the surrounding environment and asked: "Are you going to draw out the 'shadow' here?"

Ji Xun nodded: "Yes. The noise of the battle may be relatively loud, and it will be difficult to attract high-level monsters underground."

As he said that, he pointed to the passage on the other side where the sound of water came from: "You guys stay away. In case I haven't hit the shadow, you can go from this way and jump down to an underground river."

Katrina rolled her eyes at him and said quietly: "You can't even defeat your own 'shadow', do you think we can escape?"

 Complaints are complaints.

Since I chose to come along, I intend to help.

As she said that, she added, "I'd better stay here. If there is any problem, I can still help in time."

"Um."

Ji Xun smiled and didn't say much.

This old friend who has been through life and death is still trustworthy as a teammate.

Song Can was not trying to be brave. He knew that he could not help, so he said, "Brother Ji Xun, will I go over there and wait for you?"

Ji Xun nodded.

 The two of them walked away.

Ji Xun glanced at the two figures from the corner of his eye and asked as if it was nothing to do with him: "Did you see anything?"

 Katrina: “There’s a problem.”

Neither of them explained, but they both knew that the other party was talking about the principal "Monica" of the Royal Song and Dance Ensemble.

 You can disguise yourself on normal days, but in this life-and-death situation, a few details are enough to reveal a lot of information.

 She is not a simple vase actress.

Catalina said: "Maybe she is a professional agent of a certain force, or a commercial spy. But she did save the fat man's life before."

Ji Xun listened silently.

It just feels a little strange.

Catalina thought about it and added: "This fat man's business vision is very unique. With the wisdom of the ancestor of the Song family, he will never fail to see the potential of this fat man. Now it seems that the outside world may have guessed it wrong. This fat man may occupy a very important seat in that important will related to the future of the Song family. This is also the most important reason why I agreed to cooperate." She would not say this to others, but she had no intention of hiding it from her friends. mean.

Ji Xun was also surprised when he heard her analysis.

What a keen intuition.

 After thinking for a moment, he said directly: "He is the next generation leader of the Song family."

 He thought it didn’t matter if he told it in advance.

  On the contrary, it is beneficial to both parties.

    ???”

When Katerina heard this, she was obviously surprised that his tone was so sure. Her expression said: How do you know?

 But seeing what Ji Xun didn't want to say, she didn't ask any more questions.

 At this point, Ji Xun is ready, "I'm going to take action."

"Um."

Katrina did not dare to be careless and retreated a long distance.

 “The curse seal is solved!”

Ji Xun finished his preparations, black curse power was flowing out of his body, and mysterious curse marks appeared on his skin.

According to the conditions Catalina mentioned before, it seems that as long as the normal combat power of the rank itself is exerted, the "shadow" will appear.

Ji Xun was originally not sure how far he had to go, and was still thinking about whether to solve it by magic.

 As soon as the curse seal was released, I suddenly felt a clear murderous intention appear in my perception.

He watched the group of shadow figures in front of him slowly condense into a solid entity, and vaguely guessed something: "Is an ordinary third-level card master enough to trigger it?"

After waiting for two breaths, Ji Xun saw an identical version of himself appearing opposite him.

 “Mirror copy?”

Ji Xun looked at it with great interest.

  No wonder Katarina and the others had that expression when they saw her before.

From the outside, this thing has absolutely no flaws.

How to create this space?

On the other side, Catalina’s three onlookers had nervously lowered their breathing to the lowest level.

 They saw Ji Xun's exaggerated fighting power.

Also knows that his clone must be extremely powerful.

 It is no exaggeration to say that the "Ji Xun's Shadow" in front of them is a greater threat in their eyes than a fourth-level disaster.

Without any preparation, I suddenly heard a loud "pop" in the air.

Ji Xun's expression became even weirder when he heard the explosion.

This is the explosive sound of his special skill [Floating Continuous Kick] trampling the air.

After all, this is what he is good at. He could tell the difference as soon as he saw this posture, and he was surprised in his heart: "The level of Qi control is exactly the same."

If it wasn’t for the blood plague that caused the inability to transform.

 Otherwise, he felt that the shadow would transform into a werewolf immediately, and its speed would increase dramatically.

In the blink of an eye, the shadow had already rushed to the front door. Ji Xun looked at the whirlpool lingering on his fist and muttered: "Even the Ba Fist can do it."

 The sound of the fist crushing the wind created an explosion of air, and the sound of the cannon was heard. There is no doubt that this is [Tiger Cannon Fist].

His timing, technique, and combat intuition are all impeccable.

 Strength, agility. All attributes have been completely reproduced.

 In an instant, Ji Xun observed so many useful things.

 Normally speaking, if you encounter an enemy who is exactly the same as yourself, the outcome is 50-50.

However, Ji Xun's expression was slightly strange.

The fist was carried by the knife-like wind and passed through his face. He punched out and hit the shadow's body.

 “Boom!”

  It flew away with one punch.

Ji Xun looked at his fist, as if he understood something.

 This is not a flaw.

 It’s because you know yourself too well.

Ji Xun knew that if the enemy could detect the intention of his punch in advance, the seventh rib on the left chest would be a weak point.

  But to hit it, there is another reason.

On the other side, Katarina, who was watching the battle, had her heart in her throat, and the secret cards in her hand were almost boiling.

 She watched the battle with rapt attention.

Thinking that if Ji Xunzhen has a problem, he can help as soon as possible.

However, as soon as the battle began, she felt as if she had been struck by lightning and was stunned on the spot.

 “Is this a serious attack?”

Katrina's eyes widened, she never expected such a scene.

 After all, she had killed her own shadow before, and she knew how difficult it was to have a shadow that completely copied her own abilities.

But the guy in front of me could hit Shadow so easily?

Not only Catalina, but Song Can and Monica who were further away were also shocked beyond measure.

 The three of them suddenly had a thought in their minds: How could it be done?

"I see."

Ji Xun was not idle as he watched the shadow flying backwards.

The cyclone also exploded under his feet, and his whole body rushed forward like a cannonball.

 For experts of their level, a single flaw would be enough to cause serious damage.

 That punch just now was enough to expose Shadow's fatal flaw.

Ji Xun rushed forward. After all, he was a replica of himself. He knew very well how the opponent would react after being injured.

 A set of heavy punches are thrown out one after another, and every move has a weak point.

 The combo of **** fists created ripples in the air, and the injured shadow also retreated one after another.

 Thanks to the fact that "Shadow" has completely replicated his physical strength, he can withstand beatings.

 Otherwise, if this was an ordinary third-level person, he would have been killed on the spot.

Ji Xun has already understood everything.

  It's not that the shadow is not strong enough, but that "he" lacks something.

 The martial arts he is proficient in are exactly the same as his own, and his strength and other attributes are also the same.

However, this shadow does not copy "meaning".

In the first moment of the fight, Ji Xun clearly sensed the murderous intent of his opponent.

 Once you lock in that "intent", the other party's intention becomes clear.

Ji Xun had predicted how "he" would attack, and then he struck hard with a heavy blow.

that's all.

 A battle that was originally expected to be fierce ended with the dumbfounded expressions of the three onlookers.

Ji Xun didn't waste much effort and seemed to kill the shadow easily.

 Enlightenment also prompted it.

“Kill the ‘Elementary Self-Copy’ and obtain the special item ‘Skill Level Upgrade Card*1’”

“Obtain the blessing of the Shenxu Treasure House, temporary understanding +1”

Ji Xun looked at the card left behind after the shadow collapsed, and his expression froze.

 Immediately, his eyes lit up with joy: "A skill level card actually came out?"

  【Skill level improvement card】

 Detailed explanation: Exclusive limited-time card; it can improve any skill proficiency level not higher than your own knowledge; use it within 12 hours, otherwise it will disappear;

 “Good stuff!”

  Ji Xun was really pleasantly surprised.

 I thought I would get a rare skill book.

  I didn’t expect this.

 When he first participated in the war mode's extradimensional space "Outpost War", he opened the settlement box and got one.

 But that kind of opportunity is rare.

  It not only requires a high-difficulty war copy, but also requires a lot of luck.

 Unexpectedly, another one will be released now!

Without thinking, Ji Xun clicked on [Devil's Feast Level 3 (8741/16000)].

  Instantly turned into [Devil’s Feast Lv4 (11/80000)]!

This demon skill took a whole day to improve yesterday and it only increased a few hundred proficiency points. Now it can be directly upgraded to one level.

This kind of refreshing feeling makes people extremely happy.

 In an instant, he clearly felt that the coverage area of ​​the feast had nearly doubled, and the devouring efficiency had also increased several times.

 “Making a fortune!”

Ji Xun couldn't hide his joy.

 This is definitely a great benefit to him now.

This secret realm is full of monsters, and they are worried that they will be devoured too slowly.

As a result, this card came.

This is enough to support him to quickly absorb extraordinary characteristics and improve his combat power.

 And the temporary understanding is superimposed again!

Now Ji Xun has understood that the essence of this "Shenxu Treasure House" is exactly some kind of trial to encourage card masters to obtain inheritance!

Ji Xun was thinking about his changes when he saw Catalina walking over with a strange look on her face.

She seemed to be meeting Ji Xun for the first time, and she made no secret of her doubts: "How did you do it?"

Ji Xun expressed his guess: "This shadow only copied my physical attributes. Some non-physical attributes were not copied."

 Katrina: "Psychic power?"

 But as soon as she said it, she rejected it immediately.

 Because of her clone, her mental power was also copied.

Ji Xun didn’t hide it either, “I have reached the threshold of ‘meaning’.”

ˆ “.”

 Katrina was suddenly enlightened when she heard this.

 But at this moment, her eyes were even weirder.

At the same time, Cartelina feels that her talent is the pride of heaven.

  But a comparison.

This guy is really a freak.

 Furthermore, Ji Xun also captured a key word of previous enlightenment.

“Primary replicator, that is to say, there are more advanced replicators?”

Ji Xun suddenly became excited.

Such a primary copy can reveal such a surprise, but what about a more advanced one?

Katrina looked at his expression and already guessed what he was going to do.

 But this time she did not open her mouth to persuade.

 Because I know this guy’s character and I definitely can’t persuade him.

 Furthermore, Catalina herself also has strong expectations.

Just when Ji Xun and others were underground.

 The other side.

 Candy Street, Xicheng District, the former headquarters of the Innocence City Golden Oak Security Company.

 The red moon shines brightly in the space, and the Mother Tree of Joy has taken root here.

With the protection of the Mother Tree, the city's dead air cannot erode this neighborhood, which also gives the remaining believers of the Silver Moon Sect room to survive.

However, in the past two days, they have suffered heavy casualties in cleaning up the monsters nearby.

Believers go from ten to seventy-eight.

At this time, an arrogant young man wearing a crown of thorns, surrounded by several cloaked men, strolled over.

When the leader of Silver Moon and several believers saw this man, they quickly saluted respectfully: "Your Majesty."

 The person who came was none other than Arthur, the new king of Augustus who had been lurking in the Innocence City.

“This is Augustus’s ‘Treasure House of Gods’. Even I, the king, don’t know it is in Sinless City. Damn it! How much has Priest Nan hidden from me? Does she know what she is doing!”

“My king, it seems that the High Priest line has lost its faith in the loyalty of the Augustus bloodline.”

"Hmph! After I get out, I must let her give me an explanation! It's just that she didn't express her support for my ascension to the throne. Now she wants to trap me in this secret realm? It's ridiculous. This secret realm was refined by my ancestors. How could it hurt her? Blood descendant of Augustus!”

ˆ “.”

This is a dead city in a desperate situation to others, but it has no impact at all on the new king Arthur.

Not only did the monsters in the city not harm him, he also found too many royal family inheritances in the ruins.

 There are also some secret realm permissions.

“It just so happens that those guys from the Federation are trapped inside now. If we kill them all this time, we will be one step closer to restoring the country.”

"Prepare to sacrifice! The level of the Light Chaser is not enough for him to support this kind of god-level spell. Now the undead monsters in the 'Shen Ruins' are only awakened to the seventh level. As long as the sacrifice can be successful, not only the Moon God If you can come, I can also become a 'demigod'!"

 “Yes, Your Majesty.”

With this said, the leader of Silver Moon took the order and left.

The cloaked men around the new king Arthur also took action at the same time, channeling a black coffin.

As the mantras were chanted, the branches of the illusory holy tree of joy in the sky suddenly emitted traces of black threads.

 Large-scale horrific pollution spread rapidly in the dead city.
