Cataclysm King

Ji Xun walked out of the shadows slowly.

Moss's guards across from him were shocked at first when they looked at him, but then they became cold-faced.

They just stood there and had no intention of leaving.

It was really unexpected to see a person suddenly appear in front of me.

But these people are not stupid either.

If this mysterious person really had the strength to kill them easily, he would never have given them the chance to humiliate the head of the Song family before.

Moss is a veteran of the sixth level. Apart from the legendary card masters who have understood the field, there are really not many people in Donghuang who can definitely beat him.

No matter how you look at it, this one is not a legend.

Moss looked at Ji Xun, then glanced at Song Can, and sneered: "Master, I still said what I just said, give the brothers some settlement money, this matter is good for everyone."

I wanted to use these words to test Song Can's trump card.

It still is.

If you really want to take money to solve the problem, it will immediately be revealed whether you have the confidence to fight head-on.

Ji Xun raised an evil smile at the corner of his mouth.

Song Can had no choice but to waste words with these people.

However, Ji Xun didn't feel threatened by these people.

He didn't want to waste time with these traitors.

Before he finished speaking, a layer of strange ripples appeared on his fingers, slightly curling.

How sharp is Morse's perception?

He immediately noticed something unusual and yelled at the people around him: "Be careful!"

However, nothing happened to the other third- and fourth-level guards, and suddenly they heard the sound of "swish, swish" breaking through the air.

They also sensed the approaching fatal crisis.

But it's too late.

As soon as the voice reached their ears, they were in a trance, and all of them looked at each other's neck, chest and other vital parts as wisps of cold light passed by.

The cold light was so sharp that it brought out a trace of blood as soon as it passed by.

Then blood spurted out from the wound.

The knife was too fast and he was not dead in the first place.

With the last flash of consciousness, their eyes could still see the wisps of cold light heading towards the guy opposite, hovering next to him.

Oh, it turned out to be a flying knife.

Just when he saw it clearly, his eyes suddenly went dark.

The corpses of several renegade guards lay limp on the ground.

"you!"

Moss also didn't expect that the other party would kill someone at the slightest disagreement.

Why does this guy dare?

At that moment, he had discovered that the other party was definitely not a legend.

Even the legal level of the rank is far inferior to his own.

Fifth level?

Moss didn't think about it at all, and couldn't believe that such strength would actually attack him in front of him.

Just when he was about to say something, that teasing and eager gaze looked at him again.

Ji Xunke didn't say a word nonsense and said directly to Song Can: "You go first. I'll give this guy a try."

Song Can was also confused.

You know, when he saw Ji Xun appear just now, he was really pleasantly surprised.

I thought it was my friend who came to the rescue with the masters of the Alliance Army.

But at this glance, it’s just one person?

After Song Can discovered this, his heart thumped: Is this a bluff?

But before he could see the situation clearly, Ji Xun had already killed several traitors.

In the blink of an eye, are you ready to fight the strongest Captain Morse?

Song Can had the same thought in his mind at the moment: How dare this guy do this?

The last time I saw Ji Xun take action was at the Shenxu Treasure House, but at that time Ji Xun was only at level 3. What's going on now?

Song Can was stunned for a moment, looking at Ji Xun as if he was joking, and knowing that staying would only be a drag, he said, "Okay! Be careful."

With that said, he turned around and ran away without hesitation.

Opposite him, Moss looked at Song Can who was escaping, his face so gloomy that he could shed tears.

Reason told him that he could clearly kill all the people in front of him.

But I don’t know why, but being stared at by the guy opposite me made me feel nervous.

He always felt that the guy in front of him might not be able to beat him.

But he's really good at risking his life.

Ji Xun looked at the hesitant opponent in front of him and grinned with white teeth.

Sudden!

A "pop" sound broke through the air.

The figure disappeared from the spot and rushed out.

"."

Moss's face twitched across from him, and he was angry and frightened: You guys still dare to take the initiative?

The reality didn't give him any chance to think about it. He immediately felt as if his body was filled with lead, and he suddenly sank toward the ground.

"Crack!"

The heavy feeling made Moss feel as if his feet were welded to the ground, and he stepped out of spiderweb-like cracks in an instant.

Seeing this, he already understood that the gravity around him had increased more than ten times, and he was shocked: "What kind of secret technique is this?"

As soon as his thoughts changed, he suddenly saw a fist with twisted ripples coming towards him.

Moss snorted coldly, and the skin color of his entire right arm instantly turned into the color of steel, and he punched out with the same lightning speed.

"Boom!"

The sound of the collision of artillery shells pierced the eardrums.

At the center of the collision between the two fists, a strong wind of flying sand and rocks exploded.

Two figures, one flew backwards for a hundred meters, and the other also took a dozen steps back before stopping.

Moss, who stopped himself, looked in disbelief: "How domineering! What kind of punch is this?"

He is already a master-level expert in the fighting world, and there are not many boxing techniques he has never seen in the entire Eastern Wasteland.

But he had never seen this domineering boxing technique before him.

And that wasn't what shocked him.

Looking down at the cracks on the metal surface of his fist, Moss looked extremely surprised: Has the defense been broken? Could it be supernatural power?

As soon as he touched it, he had confirmed that his opponent's understanding of the law was definitely a level lower than his own.

But he didn't punch the opponent to death?

The "Iron Fist Style" he inherited is best at head-on confrontation.

Usually, those who dare to collide with him will have their hand bones shattered, or even die suddenly on the spot.

But this guy in front of me actually rushed over again in full swing?

He didn't know that Ji Xun's bones were indeed cracked just now, but in the blink of an eye they were repaired as before by the "Immortal Curse".

Being able to compete with such a master is a rare opportunity for Ji Xun.

The side effects of the cure can be completely ignored.

At the moment when the other party was shocked, the figure that had been blown away appeared in front of him again, close to his face.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"."

Without giving anyone any chance to breathe, a series of violent shock waves rumbled.

The more Moss fought, the more frightened he became.

This exaggerated strength, outrageous agility, and invincible body. What is going on?

Only then did he realize what a difficult opponent he had encountered.

In just a few breaths, this veteran sixth-level player gave up all his thoughts.

After the fight, Moss knew that it was impossible for him to defeat the opponent in a short time.

Let alone kill this guy and go after Song Can.

And he couldn't solve the battle in a short time, and he was really going to be delayed, waiting for the Oran royal family to catch up, which was not the result he wanted to see.

After several rounds of confrontation, Moss saw no hope of ending the battle. Without hesitation, he turned into a wave of air and ran towards the endless wilderness.

Moss fled.

No surprises.

"Tsk"

Ji Xun looked at it and sighed slightly. He didn't want to chase him, but he just felt that he was not very happy.

Before taking action just now, I had expected that this guy would want to make such a choice.

He is very interested in meeting the masters of the Iron Fist style to hone his fighting skills.

pity.

Since the other party can be bribed by the Oran royal family, he must be a guy who is greedy for money and cherishes his life. He would never be like Ji Xun, who would muddle-headedly fight such a fight that would not be of any benefit to him just to challenge himself.

Seeing that he couldn't kill his opponent, he ran away decisively.

Ji Xun also had no intention of staying where he was and waiting for the people from the Oran Palace to catch up.

Shaking his head, he turned around and rode his motorcycle to catch up with Song Can not far away.

It happened so fast that Song Can and the two guards didn't even run far.

The surprise was still on his face, and in a blink of an eye, he saw Ji Xun catching up on a motorcycle.

Song Can quickly opened the car door.

Ji Xun jumped into the car.

When the fat man saw his old friend, he returned to his peaceful and fearful attitude. He burst into tears and cried, "Oh, brother Ji Xun, you saved my life again!"

Ji Xun looked at it and smiled, this was the Fatty Song he knew.

After witnessing the scene just now, the excitement in Song Can's heart has not yet calmed down. He was surprised and said: "Brother Ji Xun, you... are you at the sixth level now?"

As soon as these words came out, the two guards driving in front couldn't hide their shock.

They had seen it with their own eyes just now, and the man in the back seat forced Moss back after just a few encounters.

Ji Xun shook his head as he listened: "It's still early."

He didn't want to say much about his own strength, so he threw out a black metal cube and asked, "What's going on now?"

The black cube was obtained from the "Iron Beetle Tavern" before.

Now it can be considered as returning to its original owner.

Song Can looked at the "Inheritance Key" that he had entrusted and returned to his hand, with a complicated expression.

Ji Xun didn't even ask what this thing was.

But Song Can knew that the other party could definitely guess it.

Song Can did not hesitate and said directly: "The Oran royal family is preparing to attack our Song family."

He briefly explained what had happened and his plans for evacuation.

Ji Xun was not surprised when it sounded similar to what he expected.

I just think it's quite a coincidence.

Just when he was about to evacuate, he arrived.

As for the guards' rebellion, there is nothing they can do about it.

The Song family actually had some high-level guards, but those who were trustworthy followed his wife, Mr. Jiu and several other evacuation routes.

As the head of the family, he brought this hidden danger with him.

It's not like the fat man didn't want to bring a few more guards.

But it doesn't mean much.

As for Captain Morse, a veteran sixth-level player, except for the legendary powerhouse, no one can kill him stably.

What's more, Song Can is not sure how many people in the Song family are currently controlled by the Oran Palace.

Bring more people with you, and bring more uncertain risks.

After talking about his situation, Song Can's face was full of sadness: "Thankfully, I noticed it early. If I had waited a few more days, I might not even have the chance to escape."

Having said that, he also felt that what happened tonight was too dreamy.

Ji Xun will appear, and it can be said that the Alliance Army is in contact.

But what happened to the people in the southern continent?

Song Can casually closed the car's privacy barrier, isolated the back seat, and asked curiously: "Brother Ji Xun, why are you here?"

He knew very well that he was able to escape successfully tonight thanks to the chaos caused by those in the Southern Continent.

However, he thought that no matter how powerful Ji Xun was, there was no way he could command those people in the Southern Continent.

Ji Xun said casually: "Katerina said something happened here, and I happened to be coming to Donghuang, so I came over to take a look."

He knew what the fat man was asking, so he added: "I happened to know that people from the Southern Continent had recently planned to pull out a mechanical base, so I followed along."

He did not elaborate on his latent abilities.

Song Can also knew enough not to ask any more questions.

After Ji Xun finished speaking, he asked directly: "Is Starfall City really producing 'Titan Machinery'?"

Compared to the Song family plot, which could almost be guessed from beginning to end, he was very curious about the mechanical black technologies that could affect the pattern of future wars.

"Um."

Song Can also revealed this top-secret OEM plan without hesitation, saying: "Not only our Song family, but also other major machinery manufacturers have also OEMed some parts. It seems that they are preparing to mass-produce that kind of combat mecha. "

Ji Xun was curious again: "Can it be made?"

The Titan machinery he had seen was a super weapon capable of killing seventh-level people.

However, when Talon collapsed, this kind of mechanical armor was not in production, and it obviously had a very high technical threshold.

When talking about this topic, Song Can's tone seemed a little strict, and said: "Judging from the drawings we have come into contact with so far, my Song family's level is barely adequate."

Hearing this "barely possible", Ji Xun's eyes narrowed slightly.

In his eyes, he seemed to have seen a fate line belonging to mechanical technology, extending from the fat man's body.

These three words light up the development direction of the civilization technology tree for countless years to come.

Song Can thought of something, and said: "But no one has seen the complete blueprint. I don't know what the difficulty is. I talked with Master Morton, and he speculated that the most difficult thing about this Titan mechanical armor may not be technical. level of hardware manufacturing. But ‘energy system’!”

"Energy system?"

Ji Xun's pupils shrank slightly.

Song Can said: "Yes! If you want the machine to explode with combat power comparable to that of top card masters, you must have a power core that can release corresponding energy. Based on the current drawings, after calculation by Master Morton, it is speculated that the energy core may be a kind of current Technology cannot be manufactured artificially, or it is a special item of natural energy. Because the energy level required for combat has far exceeded the performance that any energy core we know of so far can provide."

"."

Ji Xun also knew a lot about mechanical knowledge, and he understood what this sentence pointed to as soon as he heard it.

Steam boilers that boil water can only move some heavy iron lumps;

In addition to power, advanced mechanical equipment also requires extraordinary energy at the legal level.

This requires a magic energy boiler and some magic energy crystal cores.

However, according to current technology, the most advanced magic boilers can only reach the level of sixth-level card masters and below.

Titan Machinery obviously uses more advanced black technology.

Facing Ji Xun, Song Can did not hide the Song family's biggest secret, and said: "What the Oran royal family doesn't know is that they thought they had dozens of factories to manufacture those blueprint parts. But in fact, those who have the understanding of that Almost all machinists with this level of drawing are related to our Song family. Most of them were secretly trained by my grandma over the past hundred years. Even the largest sponsor of the Federal Mechanical College is actually our Song family."

"."

When Ji Xun heard the words "Grandma Grandma", the girl who always had a bright smile on her face immediately came to mind.

A hundred years ago, Ji Xun and Song Yu talked about the prospects of mechanical technology. Both of them were very optimistic about it and discussed many details.

For example: sponsoring the Mechanical College.

It now seems that the girl spent a long time putting those fantastic ideas into practice.

In fact, Ji Xun didn't know that Song Yu did this not just because he was optimistic about mechanical technology.

Another point.

Completing his plan step by step is like realizing the "future" that the two of them talked about together bit by bit.

That feeling would make her feel that this was a career that the two of them had accomplished together.

When they meet again one day, she can happily say to her beloved that she did it.

Thoughts were racing in Ji Xun's mind, and his eyes wandered unconsciously.

The Royal Court of Oran had just been restored, and it still had little control over the situation in the Federation.

The royal family itself does not have any large-scale machinery factories, so it can only rely on the old conglomerates from the previous federation.

Among them, the Song family cannot be avoided.

Next to her ears, Song Can continued: "In addition, our Song family and all military machinery manufacturers in the Federation are familiar with each other, and there are also shameful means of cooperation and planting commercial espionage with each other. Therefore, those who are being mass-produced We have access to most of the blueprints. So normally, we have been able to produce about 60% of the components of Titan machinery. This includes armor, magic weapons, transmissions, sensitive control systems, etc. Theoretically, we can already produce about 60% of the components of Titan machinery. It is said that we already have the possibility to manufacture top-level armor, but because the finished products of those blueprints are strictly controlled by the people of the Oran Royal Family, I have not obtained them. Most of the current information is still at the level of blueprints."

As he said that, he pointed at the iron lump in his hand and said: "I have put the drawings and the list of required materials in this 'Inheritance Key'. I originally thought that if something happened to me, Brother Ji Xun would You can take it to the Old World"

"."

When Ji Xun heard this, he had to admit that he was really impressed by Song Can.

Just with this mind and vision, he is not an ordinary businessman.

He looked at the "Inheritance Key" and realized that this iron knot really belonged to the Song family.

After Song Can finished talking about the biggest secret in his heart, he let out a long breath.

He thought for a while, then handed the iron lump to Ji Xun and said, "I'd better put this thing where you are first. I may not be able to escape in the current situation."

As he spoke, his little eyes that were once full of cleverness were now filled with melancholy, "You are so strong, even if you are in danger, you can help me bring out the hope of the Song family."

Being able to push back the veteran sixth level player is already very strong in the Eastern Wasteland.

The most important thing is that the Oran Royal Court's target is him, the head of the Song family.

The crisis is far from over.

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the carriage became a little dull.

Ji Xun didn't say much and silently took the iron box.

Not to mention the Song family's things, even those Titan blueprints, if they can be brought back to the Eastern Continent, I have to help them.

However, he never felt that this sense of crisis was urgent, and asked directly: "Are you worried about other evacuation routes?"

"Um."

Song Can didn't hide anything, and nodded with a worried look: "Although I tried every means to paralyze the Oran royal family. But after all, this Titan machine is too important. Only by controlling our Song family can it be possible to produce it. So. , they will never give up."

He never expected that he would be the first to escape from control by chance, leaving the greatest risk to himself.

Ji Xun watched the fat man hand back the iron box and knew what the fat man was thinking.

It can be seen from the choice of escape routes that attracted fire just now that he is no longer the fat little man who was afraid of death and hid behind any danger.

He is now the head of the Song family.

In addition to his own safety, he also has the rise and fall of his family on his shoulders.

This guy is afraid that he plans to find someone.

Ji Xun thought about it for a moment and then asked directly: "Which road is the most dangerous now?"

"My wife and those mechanical experts."

Song Can also knew that his thoughts could not be hidden, so he said directly: "The mechanical equipment is still in reserve in some secret bases and can be reactivated at any time. But the batch of mechanics trained by our Song family are irreplaceable. They represent The highest level of technology in the Eastern Wasteland at present. The people from the Oran Palace will soon find out that I transferred those experts, and they will definitely send people to hunt them down."

This is also the reason why the top guards of the Song family are not with him, the head of the family.

Of course Ji Xun knew the importance of talents, so he took out a map and asked, "What are the specific conditions of that line?"

Song Can glanced at him, pointed at the map and said without reservation: "They used to travel through the secret passage of the factory, and they would go east to the 'Townston Mine' 30 kilometers away, and then go to Haijal further east. County, there is a secret base in the no-man's land over there. If everything goes well, we should be at the mine now."

Ji Xun looked at the route on the map and already had a plan in his mind.

He didn't think that the people from the Oran Palace would let such a group of experts escape smoothly.

Reality could not tolerate any delay, so he said directly: "Well. You find a safe place to hide first. I'll go take a look."

Song Can was stunned, not expecting that Ji Xun planned to go in person: "But."

He originally wanted to go alone.

But he has just escaped now, and if he has to mobilize manpower before going there, he will definitely be unable to catch up.

He didn't want his friend to take risks, so he added: "Over there, I entrusted Mr. Quintu, the "King of Thieves", to take over the escort."

"Um."

Ji Xun nodded.

When he was in Honglou before, he had seen the legendary strong man stand up for the Song family.

He knew that, then the Oran Royal Court also knew about the relationship between Kuntu and the Song family.

After all, they have been trying to get the attention of the Song family for a long time, so they must have targeted methods.

Of course Song Can can also figure this out.

What he meant by this was: If the legend couldn't protect him, nothing would change if someone else went.

However, the reality did not give him a chance to say more. Ji Xun had already opened the car door and was about to jump out of the speeding car.

Song Can saw this and had no time to say anything. In the end, he could only say: "Brother Ji Xun, be careful!"

He knew that if Ji Xun dared to go, he must be certain.

Among those people were the future of his Song family and the future of mechanical civilization.

It's always good for someone to take a look.

"."

Ji Xun responded with a calm smile.

Not necessarily a head-on confrontation.

He now has another level of identity as the vanguard of the Southern Continent.

If an accident does occur, there are many ways to save people.

What's more, with his current abilities and the trump cards he carries, it is difficult for him to encounter any real fatal threats in Donghuang.

He was also curious about what methods the Oran Royal Court would use if it really wanted to get rid of a legend.

Ji Xun jumped out of the car, switched to a motorcycle, and ran all the way.

Being an extraordinary person, he can also control the wind element in the air, so he doesn't have to worry about safety at all. He twists the handlebar and makes the boiler cylinder friction to the extreme.

Even in the wilderness, the speed of the motorcycle exceeded 200 per hour.

They say they are running on the road, but they are actually flying at low altitude.

Just like this, Ji Xun arrived at the Townstown Mine on the eastern outskirts of Starfall City in less than half an hour.

This mine was completed and abandoned decades ago.

It was deserted for dozens of miles, with only an abandoned mining town and a few rusty railroad tracks.

Ji Xun learned the detailed evacuation route of the team from Song Can, so he stopped the car at a remote place at the foot of the mountain, and then quietly walked over.

Calculating the time, the group of people should have arrived at the mine not long after they came out of the secret passage.

Ji Xun estimated the distance and moved towards where the group of people might appear.

Originally, he thought it would not be easy to find a group of people deliberately hiding in this dark mountain range.

However, I didn't expect that as soon as I walked into a mountain col, I heard the sounds of fierce fighting.

Ji Xun immediately became alert, and at the same time he was surprised: "Are they really fighting?"

From this point of view, the people of Oran Royal Court also have masters planning their plans.

Knowing that there was a legendary strong man, he didn't dare to be careless, put on his cloak and quietly disappeared into the darkness.

When Ji Xun approached, he happened to see an interception battle taking place.

There were about twenty or thirty people in the group, and most of them were wearing mechanics' work clothes.

Ji Xun knew at a glance that these were the mechanical experts Song Can was talking about.

He is not worried about these people. Even if they are caught by the Oran Royal Court, they would not dare to kill them. At most, they would just brainwash and control their minds.

At least there is no danger for now.

What Ji Xun saw at a glance was the two sides in a fierce battle.

There were seven or eight corpses in suits on the ground. They all seemed to be elite guards of the Song family.

On the other side of the fierce battle, a man dressed in black with an assassin's hood was still struggling to hold on.

It was Kuntu, the legendary card master "King of Thieves" who was guarding the Song family and his party.

Ji Xun originally thought that the one who could stop him must be a seventh-level person, or several legends.

However, what surprised him was that the people fighting against the Thief King in front of him were not ordinary card masters, but four mechanical armors!

"Not a Titan machine!"

Ji Xun could tell at a glance that the combat effectiveness of the four mechanical armors in front of him was far less than the strength of the Titan machines he had seen in the tomb of King Augustus before.

It looks like a "low-end version" of the Titan armor.

"Has the Oran royal family already produced some low-end Titan mechas?"

Ji Xun was slightly surprised.

But what surprised him even more was the abilities displayed by several mechanical armors.

"King of Thieves" Kuntu is an agility card master in the [2 of Spades - Thief] sequence, and is extremely good at speed.

Normally, the fighting style of such a strong man must rely on super agility to move around and then look for opportunities to assassinate. Not to mention these retired mechas, even real Titan mechas that he couldn't defeat could still use the terrain to wander around.

However, at this moment, Kuntu seemed to be stuck in a quagmire, his walking speed dropped by 90%, and it could even be said that he was struggling!

It seemed that with every step and every movement, he was under great pressure.

Visibly to the naked eye, there were layers of ripples that distorted his vision around him.

This strange force even tore and twisted his protective field.

From a distance, this scene looks very strange.

Others may be completely confused, but when Ji Xun saw this, his eyes widened: "Abnormal gravity?"

He recognized it at a glance. There was something wrong with the gravity in that area!

These four mechanical armors actually used the same ability as their own secret method of "inducing the gods to fall", using gravity to control the field.

Ji Xun saw this clearly and was extremely surprised. The mechanical armor actually used a magical method?

How was this done? !
