Chapter 214 Path of Destruction [9 of Spades - Natural Disaster]

 Ji Xun’s transformed werewolf killed seven in and seven out of the knight legion.

The Iron Barrel Formation of the Knight Legion was like a steel turtle, but he used this brutal fighting method to pull in gravity and collapse with heavy punches. In the blink of an eye, the ground was covered with corpses.

This method is brutal to the naked eye.

It was like peeling off the scales of a steel turtle piece by piece until it was dripping with blood.

  After all, it takes actual combat to deepen your understanding of martial arts.

  In the fierce battle, enlightenment is constantly refreshed.

“You realize ‘Knight Shield’ in battle, experience +122”

“You have mastered ‘Knight Spear·Three Strikes of Thrust’ in battle, and your proficiency will be +39”

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　‖

It’s not just his own skill proficiency that has increased visibly.

 Various new skills are also being learned continuously.

With the blessing of magic solution, the martial arts of these knights have no secrets at all in his eyes.

This will also be the stepping stones piled under his feet when he climbs higher in the future.

 After several meetings, Ji Xun's advantage became bigger and bigger.

Even though the third-level knight commander still led a few elites to resist in the corner, they were unable to kill Ji Xun.

 The ending is actually predictable.

 Under the gambling table, the crowd was stunned.

This kind of rough and fist-fighting scene has a more violent impact on the visual senses than the two top-level card master fights next door that few people understand.

It's one thing to see a description on a wanted poster.

Seeing the ferocity of this S-class wanted criminal with their own eyes, the nobles and ladies all couldn't help but take a breath.

Only the nobles know that the knights, an elite group of knights with a lion heart, are not only not weak in combat power, but are actually extremely powerful.

 But he was killed by a second-level person?

The clown on the stage showed so much evil and violence that even through the barrier, it sent chills down everyone's spine, as if they were seeing a real bloodthirsty devil.

 But at the same time, it gives people an artistic sense of the performance of a stage actor.

 Elegance is real, and so is killing.

　　The clown on the stage is full of all kinds of strong contradictions.

 Among the audience, only Catalina is truly familiar with Ji Xun.

 But at this moment, there was also a lot of shock in her crystal eyes.

But after looking at it for a moment, she smiled with relief and said in her heart: "What a special guy."

But the gamble continues.

 In the third round, the "Princess" side played this secret card and gained the upper hand.

 Queen Catherine's face became increasingly gloomy.

 But she also had to turn over the last colored poker card in front of her.

Just when everyone was guessing what trump card this mysterious lady would come up with, everyone watched a man in a silver cloak appear on the gambling table.

The silver cloak covers his whole body, making his identity completely invisible.

However, the sense of mystery that hit his face made people instantly realize that this person was very powerful.

"Huh"

Ji Xun, who was in the midst of a fierce battle, also took the time to glance at the final round of selections.

 He was still guessing who the queen would send.

 After all, Chujiu's last card is the leader of her organization, "Light Chaser".

Although I don’t know how strong this is, looking at this first-hand field control method, I know that it must be extremely strong.

 If it were anyone else, I'm afraid it would be a gift.

But looking at this guy in a silver cloak, Ji Xun also let out a sigh and guessed in his heart: "A person from the Silver Moon Sect?"

 Others may not be able to guess who the man in the silver cloak is, but as a former undercover agent of the Silver Moon Sect, he is familiar with it at a glance.

Moreover, after the demon was solved, Ji Xun could see the moonlight-like divine power of faith surging in this man.

 Now it’s real.

 Silver Moon Sect has indeed colluded with the Oran remnants.

 It is estimated that Queen Catherine did not want to expose this relationship.

 But in the current situation, it seems that if she doesn't ask this person to take action, her own life will be in danger.

When Ji Xun saw this, he thought to himself: "It's really hard to say this."

 With such a strong belief in the divine power, it is difficult to kill.

Perhaps the queen expected her to hold off until a draw?

The opponent played a card, and Chujiu also opened the last poker card.

The cloaked man wearing the "Light Chaser" mask appeared at the gambling table as expected.

 He could also see through the other party's identity as an Old God believer at a glance.

However, there was no surprise in the eyes exposed by the mask. Instead, there was a kind of interesting joking, and he muttered: "Silver Moon's divine power."

ˆ “.”

 His identity was revealed at a glance, and the mysterious man in the silver cloak opposite didn't look very good.

If he hadn't been forcibly summoned, who would have a brain problem to think of fighting this guy in front of him.

As soon as these words fell, Silver Cloak took the lead in attacking. He finished chanting the magic spell in his mouth in an instant, and raised his hand to reveal a silver eight-pointed star array: "The Ultimate Mystery: God's Protection."

 In an instant, magic power surged.

Seeing this scene, "Light Chaser" tilted his head and looked at it, muttering to himself in a dumbfounded tone: "You just used the secret method to save your life when you came here? Oh, it's really boring. I originally wanted to see the legendary The art of pleasure.”

ˆ “.”

The silver cloak didn't sound like there was anything unusual about it, and it was concentrating its divine power at a faster pace.

"Eh."

"Light Chaser" sighed helplessly, seeming to think that the other party's response was a bit dishonest.

He also changed the topic: "That's all. Since you are playing like this, then I will also try your level of Shinto secret skills to see if you really can't die."

 At the same time as he spoke, a card randomly changed in his hand.

 Also glanced at it.

It seemed like I randomly picked it out of my deck. Only when I saw it did I know which spell it was: Oh, then this is it.

　　The spell power was poured into the card, and the cards in his hand fell apart. I seemed to hear a mysterious chanting in my ears: "The Void·The Blade of Anti-Order."

not good!

Seeing this scene, Silver Cloak's expression changed suddenly.

 Because she suddenly felt that the space around her seemed to be frozen, she quickly crushed a hidden scroll in her hand, and a six-pointed star formation lit up at her feet: "Mystery: Mirror Flowers, Water Moon!"

As soon as this secret technique came out, she found that her body was suddenly torn apart by a strange space force.

 Before there was any chance to resist, the body was "torn apart" and torn into eight pieces.

 Killed?

This scene also made everyone onlookers hold their breath.

The first time the two players came on stage in the fourth round, everyone knew that they might witness a battle between the top players in the world.

Even Ji Xun next door was very curious and watched intently.

 But I found that I didn’t understand it at all.

As soon as the unknown spell came out, people were torn apart.

If it were anyone else, there wouldn't even be a chance to escape.

Although Ji Xun didn’t think that the Silver Moon cultists would die so easily.

 But it is not easy to live.

as expected.

The method that can force Queen Catherine to be exposed as a trump card is definitely not weak.

At the moment when the body of the silver cloak was torn apart, ripples in the air stirred up, like the broken moon in the water, and it returned to its original state in the blink of an eye.

 A living silver cloak appeared in front of everyone again.

However, looking at the violent ups and downs of her breathing, it is not difficult to see that the move just now was very burdensome.

On the other side, the light chaser was not surprised that he did not kill the opponent. Instead, he sighed: "Is it an illusion of consciousness? Tsk tsk, this technique does have some skills."

 While speaking, he had already drawn a card again.

ˆ “.”

 Seeing this, the silver cloak's expression was very ugly under the cloak that was surrounded by the moonlight.

As soon as this card appeared, the crushing sense of death and oppression hit my heart again.

She has been hunted down by people from Bureau X so many times, but this moment has never made her feel so frightened.

No matter how strong an opponent she encountered, she felt that she had the protection of the gods and had hope of survival.

 However, this field

 It's like I'm a bird in a cage. No matter how much I flap my wings, I can't see the hope of flying out.

 Completely invulnerable.

In a blink of an eye, the card collapsed, and the silver cloak's body instantly burst into flames.

Ji Xun on the side did not understand the means of fighting between the two, but he did understand the futile struggle of the Silver Moon cultist who was trapped in a desperate situation.

And looking at the rich moonlight, he guessed that it was probably the previous Silver Moon leader.

 I felt in my heart that this guy was really lucky and he was not dead yet.

 But this time, it’s hard to say.

 In just the blink of an eye, he has died three times.

  No matter how many life-saving secrets there are, there is always a limit.

When Ji Xun saw this, he was filled with emotion: "This 'I am the world' is really unexplainable."

Although he didn’t understand it, it didn’t stop him from knowing how powerful it was.

 Because it’s next door, there’s a good contrast.

Similarly in the realm, on the second battlefield next door, two legends, Rem and the earth-type old man, the "Night Bearer", were fighting fiercely.

Although they are both top powerhouses and their methods are difficult to explain clearly, at least others can understand that one uses a field that can control the laws of space, and the other uses a field that controls earth elements.

By contrast, the realm of the "Light Chaser" is completely incomprehensible to anyone.

 Everyone knows they are in the realm,

  But there is no sign of the existence of any field.

It is an inexplicable fear of being "dominated" that seems to have no influence, but seems to have influence everywhere.

Ji Xun also understood what Catalina said before, the meaning of "no solution" in the field of "I am the world".

But the one who has a headache now is the Silver Moon leader.

 While Ji Xun was distracted watching the battle, he was also stepping up his killing spree.

 He knew that his battle would affect Chujiu's success rate in assassinating Queen Naolan.

 In the first round, Carlo was the one planning tonight's round. He had no intention of fighting to the death. There was a high probability of a draw.

 In the second round, the two legends could not tell the winner for a while.

 Only in this third round, it seems that the outcome can be seen in a short period of time.

The rules of the poker game Snow White are that if you win a round, you will get corresponding chips, and it will also increase the "princess" side's chance of winning.

 He was also curious about what would happen to the queen if he won.

Thinking of this, Ji Xun punched out again, and two more heavily armored knights died suddenly on the spot.

Once the knights' battle formation was broken, there were fewer and fewer living people.

Noble knights are indeed very capable in battle.

  But it’s still the shortcoming. In order to pursue the unified coordination and cooperation capabilities of the legion, almost all members of a knight legion practice the same breathing techniques and martial arts, and their equipment is also standard equipment.

Even though the sword in the knight captain's hand was a first-class relic, it didn't pose much of a threat to Ji Xun.

 He has the Secret Technique of Hegemony and the Curse Seal, as well as the "Immortal Curse".

 If you don’t have the ability to kill him instantly, you can’t kill him.

 After another fierce battle, the knights were exhausted.

However, the third-level knight commander is well equipped and follows the black knight path of [Ace of Spades] which is durable, so it takes a lot of effort to kill him.

 Fortunately, after killing Atai before, Ji Xun plagiarized too much experience in qigong.

One punch with the left hand [Tiger Cannon Fist] and one punch with the right hand [Erji Beng], both of which are extremely proficient.

Then there is [Gong Style Thirty-two Ways of Wandering Body Palm] which has just started to get started, and uses every move to break the defense.

 Qigong masters attack not only the enemy's physical body, but also the enemy's "Qi".

 Once the anger dissipates, the person is almost gone.

With Ji Xun's super agility after transforming into a werewolf, the heavily armored knight looked particularly clumsy one on one.

 This can be considered professional restraint.

 The enemy has no chance of winning.

 “咚” “咚” “咚”.

A deep sound like ringing a bell penetrated the eardrums.

 Finally, the battle is over.

After the knight captain received a hundred and eighty punches, he suddenly knelt on the ground and sprayed a mouthful of blood on his armor mask.

Ji Xun showed no mercy and punched him in the head again, killing him on the spot.

"it's over!"

Outside the venue, the guests watching also had different expressions.

 According to the rules of poker, the knight card determines the outcome, and the queen and princess will face off.

　No matter what position you take, you are looking forward to it at this moment.

 Almost at the moment when the winner was decided, Queen Catherine seemed to be cursed by a mysterious force on the gambling table, a mouthful of blood came out, and her face instantly turned pale.

Ji Xun, who was strutting away his trophies at the gambling table, felt the strong murderous intent. He glanced at it from the corner of his eye and thought about some of the rules of the game he had seen through: "Not only is the luck damaged, but the body itself is also affected by the rules. Has it backfired?"

 Ignoring the sharp eyes at all, he continued to clean up on his own.

At the same time, he absorbed all the extraordinary characteristics of the corpse, and took a look at the three battlefields next door that were still fighting.

 At this time, Chujiu also moved!

　　A chill lingered all over her body, and countless ice picks swished toward Queen Catherine on the opposite side.

This strike attracted everyone’s attention.

Now that there are restrictions on the "Snow White" card game, without the help of guards, everyone thinks that Lady Catherine is no match for Chujiu.

 After all, although women in the families of great nobles may have a high rank due to the accumulation of resources, they usually do not have to fight life and death, and there are few truly strong women.

Even Ji Xun felt that with Chujiu’s current fighting power, it would be easy to kill a queen.

 But the next second, a scene that amazed everyone appeared.

Seeing the icicles coming from the sky, Queen Catherine did not dodge, her eyes were full of sarcasm, and she said coldly: "Do you think you can kill me just by yourself?"

This confident tone surprised everyone.

Before he could finish his words, the ice cone had already rushed towards his face, and the ground exploded into a white mist.

Ji Xun's pupils shrank when he saw this: "What a powerful demon god!"

Just at that moment, he, who had overcome his demons, clearly felt a strange and surging demonic power.

Looking closely, Queen Catherine in the distance remained motionless.

 And in the mist behind her, a threatening shadow appeared in the haze.

“This woman is also a fourth-level card master?”

Ji Xun looked at the phantom, and then watched her lightly take Chujiu's killing move. Only then did he confirm that the queen was also a fourth-level expert with considerable strength.

However, when it was clear that her demon-shaking form was a nine-headed strange bird, Ji Xun suddenly matched up with an extremely rare sequence in the classics, and shouted in his heart: "Legendary Mark. Path of Destruction [Spade" 9-The demon pointed by Natural Disaster]—the demon bird Gugu!"

Although the demon god's phantom is still a little blurry, the long-necked nine-headed strange bird form is the real demon god.

  In other words, this queen is integrated with the legendary mark.

 Being able to integrate the imprint of this quality already shows that she is very talented and powerful.

However, that was not what shocked Ji Xun.

His eyes were firmly attracted by the pair of wings burning with gray and black flames behind Catherine!

  After all, she is the Queen of Oran, with countless resources accumulated, and it makes sense to have a legendary mark.

  But those wings

Ji Xun recognized it at a glance and thought to himself: "Angel wings!"

　　He had obtained an angel feather before, which was how he opened the ruins of Xia Mu City.

 However, in front of me, there is a pair of genuine [angel wings]!

 pair,

 Complete wings!

 “This woman has fused angel wings to herself?”

 After confirming again, Ji Xun was really surprised.

 He is one of the few people present who has seen the angel soul, angel body, and angel feathers alive.

He knows the taboo-like power all too well.

How high is the status of angels?

These wings are also part of the angel's body and possess divine power.

How can this be transplanted by a mere human body?

Although after watching Queen Catherine's transformation, the feathers on her body seemed to be spreading and shrinking uncontrollably, showing signs of uncontrollable deformation.

 But the fact is that she really succeeded in integrating.

How was it done?

 Suddenly, Ji Xun had a thought: "Silver Moon Sect!"

Silver Moon Sect is good at controlling and utilizing various divine powers.

 The "Silver Moon Secret Book" in my hand has recorded many similar secret methods.

The ability of Catherine to fuse angel wings is definitely related to those believers of the old gods.

 No wonder they cooperate.

The Oran royal family seems to have some special confidence and methods to control those believers of the old gods.

However, there is no point in thinking about this now.

This [Angel Wings] is a killer move that no one expected.

 Catherine, who is fused with angel feathers, has a strength that cannot be understood by common sense.

Seeing this scene, even the two top powerhouses next door, "Lamp Bearer" Lu Yu and "Night Bearer" Rem, looked sideways and expressed embarrassment.

 Under the ring, Catalina's expression suddenly became serious, and she murmured in her heart: "This is trouble."

 As the organizer of tonight’s event, she didn’t expect this to happen.

 【Angel Wings】Even the information about their Lionheart family is completely blank.

Although she has never seen it, it does not prevent her from knowing the terrifying power of the taboo.

If the Thirteen Kamen Riders are defeated, things will be very variable tonight.

However, no one saw it. Under the mask of the light chaser, there was a hint of amusement: "Have you finally forced it out?"

Chujiu looked at Catherine's wings, her breath still calm.

At this time, she slowly took out a silver chalice full of mysterious runes.

 As soon as the Holy Grail came out, the Holy Flame of Royal Power bloomed with a soft and domineering light.

 For a time, Chujiu's whole person was shrouded in a holy light, majestic and noble.

Like a queen in charge of royal power, her supreme aura is even higher than that of Queen Catherine opposite her!

“[Sismark Holy Grail], did you expect it a long time ago?”

Ji Xun also breathed a sigh of relief.

I don't know if the Holy Grail can restrain the wings of the angel, but he saw the kind of calmness in the ninth day.

Only then did he understand that the reason why they were looking for the Holy Grail on Chujiu was not just for the Holy Grail itself.

 It may also be that she has known some of Queen Oran's trump cards for a long time, and only then came up with the targeted method.

"Huh?"

However, as soon as this thought came out, Ji Xun seemed to feel that various events were connected by "coincidence" again.

Not only Chujiu, but also himself was involved in a series of events involving the Holy Grail.

With this thought, it spins around uncontrollably.

Ji Xun couldn’t help but think of this figure who was closely related to the Holy Grail: Nan Jing’s mother!

 The dozen or so thoughts running through his mind were connecting every detail.

 In a blink of an eye, I came to a surprising conclusion: this is definitely not a coincidence.

 That "Aunt Nan" was one of the original planners!

  She had already planned another big plan before the Lion Heart family planned this "killing with a borrowed knife" plan tonight!

 She also wants to get rid of the Queen of Oran!

 Once a key idea is understood,

 It suddenly dawned on me.

 “Is this the top Machiavellian?”

Ji Xun slightly squinted his eyes. The more he understood the connection, the more shocked he became.

 It seems that everything is his own chosen path.

 But everything is connected by "coincidence".

 He went to find the Holy Grail, met Chujiu and Jia Yu, and successfully extended his life.

 Then the Holy Grail was taken away by Chujiu and appeared here, just in time to face the angel wings.

Looking at this series of stories, it seems to happen naturally.

but.

 There is a premise that cannot be ignored. The initial acquisition of the Holy Grail was the news from Nanjing’s mother!

In other words, she is the source of a series of events.

 She is the high priest of Oran again!

Ji Xun doesn’t think this is a coincidence.

 But if he enters someone else's game, he will inevitably reach this step and take every next step!

 It seems like chess pieces on a chessboard, with countless variations.

However, the route of walking has been in accordance with the rules set by the chess player and according to the opponent's position. In fact, the player is only walking on a specific route.

From this perspective, it was inevitable for Ji Xun to find himself killing Artest.

 And he knows that Chujiu will come for assassination, and he will definitely appear at tonight's banquet!

 Everything that seems to be the "cause" of his subjective formation is actually the "result" that will inevitably happen.

Perhaps there will be deviations in the trajectories of some chess pieces, but there are hidden lines to correct such deviations.

This is a big game whose full picture is not clear yet.

Chujiu may not know the entire plan, but the "Light Chaser", the leader of the Thirteen Knights, probably knows!

 He and Aunt Nan may not have any communication, but they have the same purpose, so they will follow the trend.

 This is the layout of top Machiavellians.

This plan doesn’t stop there!

At this moment, Ji Xun suddenly realized that he was called to help by Chujiu, and it was definitely not just about winning a fight.

 There may be a deeper plan.

Ji Xun instantly thought that he still had the soul of the [Weeping Angel] in him!

Ji Xun's expression shone when he thought of this, and he couldn't hold back his burning excitement.

 He did not feel the frustration of being treated as a "chess piece" at all.

Rather, seeing the skills of such a top conspirator gave him a sense of enlightenment as his intellectual cognition was elevated.

 “It seems that I have understood something.”

Ji Xun suddenly had a sense of consciousness.

 He understands a little bit about the field of "I am the world".

 But then he had an intuition: even this understanding was some kind of guidance that followed the trend.

It’s hard to describe how wonderful it is.

Ji Xun knew very well that he played an important role in this game. Neither Aunt Nan nor the Light Chaser concealed their reasons.

 But they didn’t say.

   Because it cannot be said.

Thinking of this, the joy of performing on stage became more exciting in Ji Xun's heart: "Hahaha, it's a high-end game."

 For an actor who pursues performing arts, he is more eager to encounter a good script than the opportunity to appear on stage!
