The moment he saw the High Priest of the Sun Clan appear at the door......

The places that had been haunting Xia Jian's mind before, which made Xia feel confused and incomprehensible, all became clear at this moment!!

As the High Priestess of the Sun Clan!!

As the Jiaoyang clan, there are only a few wise men and civilization inheritors left, and it is impossible for this old man not to know the secrets of the inheritance of the Jiaoyang clan!

Equally......

Be the master of the space door!

This old man, if he wants to secretly move a little bit when he teleports Xia Jian, it is really too easy!

And it's also very easy to get rid of after the fact!

If the military really wants to be held accountable, he can't shirk the fact that in the process of teleportation, he will encounter spatial turbulence!

Anyway, the space gate built on the spatial crack is not very stable in the first place......

It's so normal for this to happen!

…………

Thinking about these things, Xia Jian quickly adjusted his mentality......

In the direction where the old man was, he bowed slightly: "High Priest, were you helping me just now?" ”

It is worth noting that when he said this, Xia Jian's tone was neither humble nor arrogant, and he was vigilant enough against the high priest, and he was not too rude!

Seeing Xia Jian's attitude towards himself, when he came in, the high priest with a smile on his face became even brighter and kinder, nodded, and said, "Yes!" Child!! ”

All right!!

The high priest has already directly called Xia Jian a child!

This shows that he has already regarded Xia Jian as his own!!

The attitude of the high priest once again made Xia Jian affirm. The old man in front of him must know the place of trial of the Dao and those secrets in the inheritance!

Case......

That Xia Jian is basically certain. The decision to let the military enter the place of trial was a conspiracy of the old man in front of him!!

A big conspiracy against the military, killing two birds with one stone!

What is the saying......

I was sold and I was still counting money for others!

That's right!

In this conspiracy of the high priest, those bigwigs of the military are playing such a role!!

……

But Xia Jian, the next move. But it's still a little puzzling......

It stands to reason......

Now that the high priest has been confirmed, he knows the secret of the Dao lineage!

Since under normal circumstances, in the process of receiving the lineage. will be forcibly injected, forever loyal to the thinking of the Sun Clan!

That as an exception......

And to be expected......

Once the fact that Xia Jian did not accept the complete inheritance is exposed, what will greet him will definitely be the stormy pursuit of the Sun Clan!!

In this case. Xia Jianxian should be nervous!

And then in the following time. What Xia Jian should do is to please the high priest and show loyalty to the high priest, so as to eliminate the suspicion of the old man in front of him!

After all, now Xia Jian didn't dare to guarantee whether the old man in front of him was convinced of the fact that he had accepted the inheritance, or if he was just doing some kind of temptation!

But in reality?

Until now, Xia Jian was still on full alert. Don't dare to relax at all!

And that's just the beginning......

……

"High Priest, thank you!!"

Hear the high priest confess that he saved himself. Xia Jian once again made a chest-beating salute towards the high priest!

This etiquette was learned by Xia Jian from Shi Huan......

It's different from modern etiquette like handshakes!

In terms of etiquette, the Jiaoyang clan seems to be quite stubborn!

This kind of older etiquette is still followed......

Now that Xia Jian is doing this, he has expressed enough gratitude and respect for the high priest for saving him, but he has also maintained enough distance and vigilance!

It can be said that ......

From the current Xia Jian, there is no sign that he has been controlled!!

To be expected......

Xia Jian's performance must have aroused the suspicion of the high priest......

"No, it's just a matter of ......"

The High Priest waved his hand indifferently......

But in those deep pupils, there was a faint essence, like two sharp swords, looking Xia Jian up and down!

Under the forced gaze of his eyes, for no reason, Xia Jian actually had the feeling that he seemed to be stripped naked in front of this old man......

Alert ......

Xia Jian's face tightened, and he secretly restrained his breath!

At the same time, he quietly put on a defensive posture!

After seeing Xia Jian's action, the high priest also seemed to notice the inappropriateness of his actions, smiled and withdrew his gaze!!

At first glance, this old guy seems to be in a bad mood right now!

And for Xia Jian, there is also a faint sense of combing, and there is a hint of hostility!!

can be seen in Xia Jian's eyes......

The smile on the old man's face this time was not a bit of falsification, and it seemed extraordinarily sincere!

Obviously, in fact, the old man is in a very good mood right now!!

It was only at this time that Xia Jian finally felt that this old man had finally moved away, and since he came in, he had been firmly locked in his breath!

……

I secretly breathed a sigh of relief in my heart......

Xia Jianzhi said, this first temptation, he finally got through it, and temporarily won the trust of the old man!!

Next......

As long as you don't show too many flaws, you can be considered safe!!

On the surface......

Xia Jian showed a confused expression, stared at the high priest curiously, and stopped talking, "The kid has a sentence, I don't know if I should ask ...... Dao."

"Please!!"

The high priest made a gesture of please......

Just as the Sun clan likes to perform ancient rituals, the high priest is in communication with people. It's also a bit old-fashioned......

As a homeless child who once lived at the bottom of society, Xia Jian naturally knows how to make others feel more good about him!

This ability has almost been integrated into his instinct!

You don't have to do it on purpose. Almost subconsciously, when he spoke, Xia Jian's tone couldn't help but add a little bit of ancient rhyme unconsciously: "I don't know the high priest of the Dao, why do you want to save me?" ”

"Hehe......"

It seemed that Xia Jian had expected this to ask, and the high priest stroked his long silver-white beard and chuckled. said: "Child, that's because you deserve to be saved by old decay!" ”

A very sharp reason!!

Sharp at the same time, but people can't find any fault!!

That's right!

You deserve to be saved. So I saved! It's that simple, so simple that you don't even need any reason!

But in reality?

The old guy is fart, nothing practical!

But then again, I have to say it. This old man's answer. It's very much in line with a master, unfathomable mysterious image!

If you are any person, if you don't understand the truth of the matter, you may really be fooled by the old man's pretentiousness!!

OK......

What the old man wants to save himself for, Xia Jian already knows it!!

After seeing the high priest come in, all the actions, including the expressions on his faces, every question asked. In fact, it was all deliberately done by Xia Jian!

There is only one purpose......

That is to eliminate the old man's heart, the little guard against himself!

……

Xia Jian's principle of doing things is. Since it has already begun, then do a full set of things!!

Although the old man's pretended to be a master, Xia Jian wanted to laugh very much! But on the surface, Xia Jian still looked very excited......

Like the heroes in costume films, he bowed his hand and bowed slightly to the high priest again!

"The grace of saving life cannot be repaid, if the high priest has anything that the kid needs to do, as long as the kid can do it, he will definitely not shirk ......"

All right!!

Xia Jian admitted that when he said this, he almost threw up!!

I vomited when I was disgusted by myself!!

Fortunately, the old man didn't notice the detail that Xia Jian frowned on!!

Seeing Xia Jian say this, the silver-haired and silver-bearded high priest smiled and stroked his long beard, and seemed to have a sense of accomplishment about it! 、

After pondering for a while, as if he had made a difficult decision, the high priest beckoned to Xia Jian and said, "Child, follow me ......"

After speaking, the old man turned around and walked in the direction of a stairwell not far from the hall......

Hearing the words......

Xia Jianzi followed closely......

…………

Along the way, the high priest walked very slowly!

Especially when climbing stairs......

stumbled, if it weren't for Xia Jian's supporters in many places, it would be very worrying, whether the old man would be weak under his feet and roll down the stairs one by one!

This also led to the fact that it would have taken only one minute to walk the stairs completely, which made Xia Jian walk for more than five minutes......

All the way through the second, third, and fourth floors......

Several times, when Xia Jian thought he had reached his destination, it turned out that the old man had to continue to climb up!!

It wasn't until he climbed to the end of the stairwell that Xia Jian confirmed where the old man wanted to take him......

……

As mentioned earlier, this is a Gothic-style building that has been magnified several times!!

The biggest feature of Gothic style architecture is that there are a large number of towering, sharp towers, from a distance, those towers are like lightning rods!

And this time......

The place where the high priest took Xia Jian was this building, the largest of the many towers, and at the same time the top of the tallest tower!

Waited until the top of the special building......

Xia Jian looked around, and the entire City of Hope was in full view!

Except for a limited number of buildings, there are few buildings in the entire City of Hope that can compete with the entire tower in height!

One more glance at the front ......

In fact, the space inside the tower is not very large, four or five square meters......

Whether you can stand on ten people is very problematic!!

But it's in such a narrow space. In the most conspicuous position, there is a very large one. It takes up two-thirds of the entire tower, and it is completely black, like a telescope!!

Facts have also proved that Xia Jian's judgment is correct......

Just when Xia Jian was still not sure about his guess, the high priest had already walked to the telescope, put his eyes on the lens, and began to observe on his own!

While observing, the high priest did not forget to skillfully manipulate the telescope. Locking in a certain direction and constantly searching, Xia Jian felt like he was looking for something!!

Since the high priest did not speak......

Xia Jian naturally wouldn't bother. During the time when the high priest was busy with himself, Xia Jian stood quietly to the side and waited!

It's not that Xia Jian doesn't want to know what happened to this high priest who brought him here!

It's just that Xia Jian is not in a hurry......

He didn't believe it, old man. Bring yourself here. Just to show myself the scenery of the City of Hope!!

When he can know the Tao, this old man will naturally say it......

Really......

Not long after Xia Jian's thought crossed his mind, the high priest beckoned to Xia Jian, and at the same time let go of the observation position of the telescope and pointed to the observation position......

"Kid, come and see ......"

"What a shame!"

Xia Jian nodded......

Although he had expected this scene for a long time, Xia Jian's face. Still with appropriate doubts, he walked to the observation position of the telescope. Hold your eyes close to the viewing opening......

Next Second......

Xia Jian's pupils contracted suddenly!

What did Xia Jian see?

Originally......

The telescope is not anywhere else......

It is the gate of the Gothic-style building used by the military to house the strong men who came to support!!

Although Xia Jian had only been to that place once......

But it was that time that left a deep impression on Xia Jian!!

However, compared to last time......

Near the gate of this "dormitory building", there is a big difference now!

Xia Jian remembered that the last time he was led in by Shi Huan through that gate, near the gate, there were only four guards, two of whom were modern soldiers, and two were golden-armored warriors of the Jiaoyang clan!!

And at this moment......

The front door of that building was completely crowded with thousands of meters of heavily armed soldiers!!

At a glance, the mountains are full of eyes, densely packed with a large area!!

Besides......

In the dense crowd, Xia Jian also found several, strangely shaped, in the sun, exuding a cold luster of machines!

I can't figure out what these things do!!

But Xia Jian is sure that these won't be good things!!

As for being in the encirclement, the innermost to that group of people......

Although due to the distance between them, Xia Jian couldn't use spiritual perception to find out the specific strength of their group of people!

But their strength is beyond doubt!

This......

It can be seen from the slightly distorted space in the area where they are.

"Suck ......"

At least when Xia Jian saw this scene, he couldn't help but gasp......

Wrapping his aura around him and distorting the space around his body a little, Xia Jian can actually do it!!

It's just that this kind of ability can only barely be achieved after Xia Jian has been promoted to the peak of the general level!

In a nutshell......

The eight warriors who formed a semicircle and firmly surrounded the entire gate, no matter how bad their strength was, would definitely not be lower than the peak of the general rank!

And in Xia Jian's opinion, the possibility that these eight people are king-level powerhouses is greater!!

……

seems to be able to see through what Xia Jian is thinking......

Just when Xia Jian was secretly wondering whether the people who surrounded the gate were king-level or general-level......

"Those people are all king-level powerhouses......

The old and gentle voice of the high priest came from the boat next to him in time to answer the doubts in Xia Jian's heart!!

"This time, in order to deal with you, those people in the military have invested blood, and they have already transferred all the king-level evolutionaries they can find in their hands......"

Obviously, even the high priest. For the military to deal with Xia Jian this time, they dispatched eight king-level evolutionaries, which I think is incredible!!

The high priest had this idea. Xia Jian is very understanding......

Eight of them!

At this time, in Xia Jian's field of vision, the number of those king-level evolutionaries was as many as eight people!!

Although Xia Jianzhi has hidden strength, the military has hidden strength!

Although Zhilu Dao, these eight general-level powerhouses are not from a military region......

But when this hidden strength is really exposed in front of Xia Jian, at this moment. Xia Jian was still shocked!

But it didn't end there......

Without waiting for Xia Jian to digest this information, the high priest spoke again: "Did you see that equipment in the east?" ”

Hear the words. Xia Jian controlled the telescope and looked towards the east......

In that direction, Xia Jian was on the roof of a loading car and saw a similar. Before the Great Breakdown. Something like a cauldron antenna for watching satellite TV!

"Is that the lid?"

"Pot lid?"

Hearing Xia Jian's name for this equipment, the high priest paused for a moment, and then understood what Xia Jian was referring to, and said with a smile: "That's right, it's the pot lid!" ”

"But do you know what the lid is for?"

Xia Jian shook his head, "What's the use?" ”

The High Priest sighed with emotion, "That pot lid is a transmitter through which it emits waves of energy that have been distracted. Increases the inert ...... of all elements within a kilometer of the surrounding area."

"Energy waves? Elemental inert? ”

Hear these two words. Xia Jian pondered for a moment, although he roughly figured out what the high priest was trying to express, he was still not sure, and couldn't help but ask again, "Can you be more specific?" ”

"Hehe......"

It seemed that Xia Jian had expected this question, the high priest chuckled, and spit out a word from his mouth without hesitation: "Shield!" ”

"That thing, it blocks out all elemental abilities!"

"I rely on ......"

Hearing this, Xia Jian was speechless for a while: "In order to deal with me alone, is it necessary to do this?" ”

Xia Jian knew very well that this appearance looked like a device with a pot lid, why would it appear here......

Isn't it!!

In those military intelligence, he is a mutant of electric and fire abilities!!

With this thing......

Isn't his dual-line ability of electricity and fire equivalent to an ornament!

Thinking of this, Xia Jian couldn't help but feel palpitations......

Sure enough, it's the military!!

You can study something like this!!

At the same time, Xia Jian couldn't help but secretly rejoice, fortunately, the moment he first came, he didn't try to be happy for a while, exposing all his strength!!

"That's right......"

After sighing with emotion, Xia Jian suddenly thought of a very important question: "High priest, are there many such pot lids?" ”

When asking these words, Xia Jianyou noticed that the expression on the high priest's face was very exciting......

Subsequently, Xia Jian knew why the high priest had such an expression......

"This thing?"

The high priest shook his head and said with emotion: "This thing is not as easy to build as you think, the only core of this one is still provided by me!" ”

When he said this, Xia Jian couldn't tell whether the high priest was showing off or regretting!

Anyway, the expression on the high priest's face is very complicated!

At the same time, Xia Jian also secretly breathed a sigh of relief......

"It's fine! Ok......"

If these equipment that can shield other people's abilities can be manufactured and popularized on a large scale, then those elemental mutants in the last days will have a very hard time in the future!!

And Xia Jian himself......

Although it will not be completely lost!

But the combat effectiveness will also be discounted a lot!!

……

On the tower again, I observed for a while......

Five minutes later, Xia Jian followed the high priest and came to the previous hall again!!

Along the way, both sides were silent......

It wasn't until the two of them walked to the door that had been closed again, I don't know when, that the high priest turned around and looked at Xia Jian curiously: "Do you have any plans for the future?" ”

"Intended?"

Xia Jian was stunned for a moment, giving people the feeling that he had never considered this problem!!

For Xia Jian, who has been wandering outside alone since he was a child, and has dealt with some chickens, dogs, thieves, and crazy people. Fooling people couldn't be easier!

After pondering for a while, Xia Jian shook his head: "I didn't think about it!" Let's take one step at a time!! As long as you don't starve to death! ”

"Does one step count as one step?"

Heard Xia Jian's answer. The old man smiled and said, "How about I give you a suggestion?" ”

"Please ......"

Although he said so, Xia Jian knew in his heart that after going around in circles for so long, the meat scene was finally about to start......

Really......

After the high priest pondered for a while, he said, "Why don't you join our Sun Clan?" ”

"Humph!"

Xia Jian snorted coldly in his heart. Sure enough!

However, there was a look of embarrassment on his face: "Do you want to join you?" But aren't you afraid that I'll trouble you? ”

What Xia Jian is talking about here refers to when this old man takes him in. Those guys in the military will definitely find trouble for the Sunny Clan!!

How do you think that the high priest chuckled directly, and said, "Involved?" If the old man was afraid of them, he wouldn't have cooperated with them!! ”

"Oh!"

Listen to the confidence in the old man's words. Xia Jianzheng wanted to strike while the iron was hot. Let's see if we can get some top-secret information out of this old man's mouth!

I didn't think that the old man was not simple, so he didn't give Xia Jian a chance to ask, and said again: "You don't have to worry about anything else, just say if you want to!" ”

"This ......"

Xia Jian looked embarrassed......

After hesitating for a while, he finally apologized: "Thank you High Priest for your kindness, I can't hide it, I still have some things to deal with outside." So ......"

So what......

Xia Jian didn't say it explicitly!

But as smart as a high priest, he naturally knew that Xia Jian was refusing euphemistically!

"Hehe......"

chuckle. Waving his hand, he said kindly to Xia Jian: "You don't have to explain, if you don't agree, it will definitely be your difficulty, and the old man will naturally not be difficult!" ”

After a pause, the old man reached out and patted Xia Jian on the shoulder, and continued: "Since you want to leave, I will arrange someone to send you away from the City of Hope, if you want to find a place to settle down in the future, you can come to the old man again, and the gate of the City of Hope will always be open to you!" ”

Xia Jian clenched his fists with excitement on his face: "Thank you......"

"You don't have to ......"

After patting Xia Jian on the shoulder twice, the high priest pushed open the door and left......

Wait for the High Priest to leave shortly after ......

Then a golden-armored warrior came in, with a complete set of golden armor, and asked Xia Jian to change into it.

Subsequently......

Xia Jian, who was disguised as a golden-armored warrior, left the City of Hope with the gold-armored warrior in a grand manner......

……………………

The wind was cold and the snow was falling......

Half an hour later, when Xia Jian reappeared, it was already on a small hillside miles away from the City of Hope!!

From encountering a snowstorm and discovering the City of Hope in a daze, to coming out again......

In the blink of an eye......

It's been almost ten days!!

A lot happened in 10 days......

Far from it......

Let's just talk about transportation!!

When he first came, Xia Jian was driving an armed helicopter!

Helicopters, all kinds of weapons, all kinds of supplies, it can be said that everything is available......

As long as it can be thrown on the plane......

Xu Leini and Liu Li basically lost them to Xia Jian!

But now?

The helicopter is gone!!

The only means of transportation, only a pair of legs left of you!!

Supplies and weapons are gone!

In addition to the dagger and the special energy crystal nucleus that he carried with him, Xia Jian's harvest in the City of Hope this time was only the armor on his body!!

……

Be careful!

I have to say that Xia Jian's caution once again saved Xia Jian's life!!

Truly......

As the inheritor of the few remaining knowledge of the Sun Clan, the High Priest is the Dao of Knowledge, and after receiving the inheritance, all the trialists will become the most loyal warriors of the Sun Clan!

But after all, the things that the high priest knew about the Tao had been passed down by word of mouth for thousands of years!

No one can guarantee that nothing will be left out of these thousands of years of inheritance!

So......

The temptation of Xia Jian has become a must-do!

In fact, if it weren't for Xia Jian, it would be someone else......

At this time, even if they guessed the key to this, they thought of camouflage! However, under the high priest's questioning, it was estimated that he would still be exposed......

But Xia Jian is different......

Xia Jian has Xiao Hei!

As early as a week ago, when Xia Jian had just finished accepting the inheritance, Xiao Hei had already explained to Xia Jian in great detail the matter of being loyal to the spiritual imprint of the Jiaoyang clan......
