Ji Xun's current way of fighting is somewhat incomprehensible to other card masters.

Werewolves are already good at stealth, and with the Relic Cloak and Shadow Sneak, they can sneak up on their home ground almost everywhere in dungeons like Innocence City.

Professionals of the same rank have been killed almost before they even find out.

Even if you can't assassinate the second-order assassination, then turn into a reckless man and chase and kill without brains.

Anyway, the absolute agility attribute is suppressed, and the opponent will definitely not be able to escape.

The crispy profession is like killing the cursed witch before, but if there is no means to kill Ji Xun in a short time, sticking to the face is to chop melons and vegetables.

The flesh-based profession is like the second-order in front of you, you can't run away, and your strength is not enough, so you can only exchange injuries for injuries, wolf claws call and greet, scalpels rattle and stab, and you can end the battle soon.

Nanjing on the side was already stunned.

She had never seen any first-order card master be able to fight so strongly against a second-order team.

She watched as the tall werewolf slaughtered a few minions in an instant, and then pounced viciously on the second-order fighter. After that, he rode on that guy and put it out all over his face.

In the blink of an eye, blood burst out all over the ground, even if it was a second-order, it didn't last long, and it was already killed on the spot!

The scene was brutal and bloody.

Ji Xun was relieved to kill all the trackers.

The beastly characteristics gradually faded and returned to human form, and he turned his face to look at Miss Marukitou who was stunned there: "Don't just look at it, help dispose of the corpse together." ”

Nan Jing's delicate body was shocked: "Oh." ”

Dealing with the scene of the battle, the two of them rushed all the way.

After a short time, they came to an abandoned and dilapidated building in the southern city.

Although the various mysterious tracking methods are impossible to prevent, almost all of them have a certain release distance.

Just now it was determined that the method of positioning the Golden Oak in the south mirror was biometrics, and the relics were intercepted, and it was not a big threat.

And as long as you hide far enough, it's safe for the time being.

Ji Xun observed the surroundings, this dilapidated building has a wide field of vision, and it is also convenient to retreat.

The two of them found a corner and sat down.

The abandoned and dilapidated building looked empty, and the two did not speak for a while, gasping for breath.

Looking at Miss Maruktou beside her with a dumbfounded expression, Ji Xun returned the storage ring she gave before, and said, "Your storage ring, take it." ”

But Nan Jing looked at it but didn't mean to put it away, thought of something, and his expression was even a little embarrassed: "Or. Just put it there for you? ”

She doesn't know where to go now.

There is no way to go home, and there is no one in the innocent city who dares to trust.

It was because he believed in an old friend in the secret stronghold of Innocence City that he was chased and killed by others.

caused friends Mo Feng and Ah Yao to be killed.

Now I'm escaping this time.

But next time, not necessarily.

On the contrary, only Ji Xun is the only person she can trust and entrust these things in the City of No Guilt now.

The innocent girl suddenly became worried, and the cuteness became very helpless.

Ji Xun saw the melancholy he had never felt in Nan Jing's expression, and he didn't say much, but asked, "How did you provoke the Golden Oak Security Company?" ”

Nanjing listened, and his thoughts were still a little confused.

But looking at those calm and calm eyes, it seemed that his heart was frightened all day long in the days of fleeing, and there was a trace of inexplicable peace of mind at this moment.

Since he chose to believe that the person in front of him entrusted the family secret treasure, there seems to be nothing that cannot be said.

"I don't know," she said. But now it seems that the Golden Oak may have something to do with our royal court. ”

The word "royal court" was directly used.

She also knew that after getting along so many times, Ji Xun should have guessed her identity a long time ago.

There's no point in hiding it.

Of course, Ji Xun knew what the royal court meant.

I went to the intelligence merchant to inquire before.

Two hundred years ago, the Oran dynasty collapsed, and the newly formed Federal Assembly sent the last king of Augustus to the gallows.

And the remnants of the palace guards of the old dynasty began to go into exile with some royal blood and palace treasures.

This is the group of "remnants of the old era" that have been hanging on the wanted list for hundreds of years.

This group of people disappeared for decades, and then slowly there was news again, and they were active in various coup plots in the Federation, and they always wanted to be restored.

But because of the complicated environment of the underground world, those people were well hidden, and the federal government was unable to find them.

Ji Xun is no stranger to Chu Jiu and Nan Jing.

From their words, it is not difficult to surmise that those remnants of the old era should be in a cave near the city of innocence.

After all, if you want to overthrow the federation and restore it, the old continent, which is full of opportunities, is the only chance for those people.

Listening to what Nan Jing said, the Golden Oak Security Company, one of the giants of Innocence City, is most likely a force secretly supported by the Augustus King's Party.

Thinking about it, Ji Xun asked again: "What happened?" Why was Ling hunted down by the royal court? ”

He didn't want to snoop on other people's privacy.

But now in this situation, Nanjing's situation is very dangerous.

He didn't intend to leave people here and leave it alone.

But if you don't ask clearly, sooner or later, this ball head will have to have an accident.

Nan Jing hesitated for a moment after listening to his expression, and then said, "I haven't figured it out yet." My mother noticed something unusual and arranged for us to escape, and then we were hunted down and killed along the way. ”

“.”

Ji Xun frowned when he heard this.

He was also very surprised, this confused young lady still hadn't figured out why she was hunted down?

Ji Xun thought of the exaggerated palace treasures in the storage ring that he had glimpsed before, which even the top nobles of the Federation might not have so many collections.

Could it be these treasures?

Or identity?

It was not difficult for him to guess that Nan Jing's identity was not simple, so he asked directly: "Xiao Nan, what is the identity of your family in the royal court?" ”

Nan Jing glanced at Ji Xun's expression and said weakly: "Our Nan family has been the high priest of the royal court since ancient times. ”

After all, the dynasty has collapsed, and the remnants of the old era have long since lost their former glory.

When this identity is spoken, it feels more like some old antique show-off.

I don't feel glorious, but I can't see the light.

“.”

Ji Xun's eyes twitched when he heard this.

He guessed that Nanjing's identity was unusual, but he didn't expect it to be so high.

He knew from some texts that the priest had an extraordinary position in the ancient dynasty, and the position of high priest was called "national teacher" in other words.

Almost the king's most trusted person, under one person.

Rights are secondary.

The most important duty of the High Priest was to hold some of the secrets of the royal lineage, similar to the Humanoid Archives.

They knew some ancient secrets that even the emperor didn't know.

But this kind of king's right-hand man is hunted down?

What do those remnants of the old times think?

A coup d'état, or something else?

Things are getting more and more complicated.

Thinking of the others again, Ji Xun frowned again and asked, "What is the identity of Chu Jiu in the royal court?" ”

Nan Jing blinked and asked rhetorically, "Sister Chu Jiu didn't tell you?" ”

Ji Xun nodded: "Hmm." ”

Nan Jing seemed to find it difficult to say that, but also said, "She is the illegitimate daughter of His Majesty the King. ”

“.”

Ji Xun was not surprised when he heard this.

Chu Jiu's identity was very special, he had already guessed, after all, the fifty-two demon god source cards were not available everywhere.

But. Bastards have a very low status in this world.

Those amorous aristocrats, who don't have ten or eight illegitimate children?

In order to prevent these noble lords from leaving wild seeds on a whim to affect the purity of the "noble bloodline" and the distribution of titles and chaebols, illegitimate children cannot even have surnames.

The status is about the same as that of a slave.

No wonder it's called the ninth day of the first month.

It doesn't seem to be a nickname, but a random name without a name.

Speaking of which, the identity and bloodline of the ninth year of the first year is still a princess of the dead country?

Ji Xun asked directly: "So, Chu Jiu was hunted down and killed because of the demon mark she fused?" ”

That's it for the orthodox princess.

It is not necessary to have an illegitimate daughter.

And there are a total of fifty-two Demon God Source Cards, and most of them have been lost in the long river of history.

Even if there are many remnants of the old era, it is impossible to give an illegitimate daughter easily.

Nan Jing didn't know if he could say this kind of secret, but there seemed to be nothing he couldn't say: "Hmm." In a very accidental situation, the ninth sister of the beginning became the only epic source card that successfully fused the [Square Q-White Queen] sequence of the royal inheritance in thousands of years. So there has always been a huge controversy within the royal court."

"Q of the cube."

Ji Xun is no wonder.

I've never seen this kind of high-sequence card master, and this is the first time I've heard of it.

But that shouldn't be the most important reason for being assassinated.

He thought of another question, "So, if you fuse this source card, you won't be able to inherit the royal power, right?" ”

Hearing this, Nan Jing's eyes widened: "Ah, Mr. Ji Xun, how do you know?" ”

“.”

Ji Xun pursed his mouth.

finally knew why Chu Jiu was hunted down and killed by his family.

This is not a problem if it is simply said that the source card is fused.

Anyway, once the Epic Demon Mark dies, it can be parsed 100%.

And a master who can fuse the source card is definitely a big help for those old remnants.

Even if it's an illegitimate daughter.

It will not be exterminated.

So the only problem is that the source card may have some symbolic meaning involved.

For example, royal power.

Ji Xun looked at Miss Marukotou's incredible expression, and also responded: "Guess." ”

Anyway, he asked, so he simply asked to the end, and he said: "So, what is involved in the source card of the ninth year?" ”

Nan Jing thought about it, and said with a complicated expression: "The Orlan royal family inheritance has two source cards and the corresponding professional advancement sequence. One is the [K of Spades-Tyrant] fused by His Majesty the Kings of the past dynasties, and the other is the [Q-White Queen]. According to the ancestral teachings of King Augustus, once one successfully fuses either of the two source cards, one is eligible to inherit the throne. After all, there have been queens in the dynasty."

As she spoke, she glanced at Ji Xun again, as if she couldn't be confident why he could guess, and added: "But this is a secret that only the royal family and the high priest know." That's what I learned from my mother. ”

When Ji Xun heard this, he completely understood.

Chu Jiu was hunted down, and the essence was still a palace fighting drama.

The inheritance of King Augustus is that those who can fuse the source card can inherit the royal power, which means that the prince is virtuous.

In this transcendent world, it is in the best interests of the kingdom to have a strong king.

So there is nothing wrong with this ancestral teaching.

If there is a problem, it can only be the person who executes.

Thinking of something, Ji Xun said quietly: "Is your majesty the king critically ill, or is he unable to govern for some reason, and the queen is in politics?" ”

When Nan Jing heard this, he had a ghostly expression: "You. How do you know? ”

This is the top secret of the royal court!

His Majesty had suffered from a strange illness half a year earlier, and now the Queen was in charge of almost all the affairs of the royal court.

And Nan Jing himself was only told by his mother before leaving.

No one knows about this except her mother and queen, who are high priests!

Ah was surprised, how did this know.

Ji Xun looked bored, because the plot was very bloody, and added: "Does your queen have a son?" It should be okay in every way. But he just couldn't fuse [King of Spades-Tyrant]."

“.”

Nan Jing was too shocked to answer.

But her expression let Ji Xun know that she guessed correctly.

Ji Xun can guess, it's not how smart he is.

At the end of the day, it's human nature.

Kingship is almost the highest temptation that human beings can access, and in the face of this temptation, the greed and ugliness of human nature are laid to light.

It's this kind of palace power struggle drama, which is densely recorded in the history books of the previous life.

Ji Xun didn't want to say much.

Knowing this, he also knew the origin of the ninth year clearly.

But what does this have to do with Nanjing being hunted down?

Could it be that her mother snooped on some palace secret and wanted the whole family to be silenced?

Not really, high priest under one man.

Even if it is a harem to interfere in politics, then what queen will not be stupid enough to abandon herself, right?

Ji Xun looked at the young lady who hadn't recovered from the shock and asked, "Xiao Nan, did anything unusual happen to you before you were hunted down?" ”

"This"

When Nan Jing heard this, he also fell into deep thought.

In fact, she has also thought about why she was hunted down these days when she was hiding in XZ.

She guessed it was the royal family.

But can't guess why.

Their southern family has been loyal to the royal family for generations, and the fortune of the royal family has long been integrated with the city, and one is prosperous and the other is lost.

Whatever the crime, it shouldn't fall on her.

What's more, there is no crime at all.

Ji Xun looked at her puzzled expression until he couldn't ask the result, and then continued to prompt: "For example, there are outsiders from your royal court, or there are any different changes from the past."

Saying this, Nan Jing pondered for a long time, suddenly woke up, and said, "There really is!" Three months ago, another group of people of mysterious origin went to the royal court, and they carried a coffin inside. ”

Ji Xun faintly felt that he had grasped the key, "Coffin? ”

"Hmm!"

Nan Jing nodded and said, "I remember it very clearly. For for the coffin to enter the palace had to pass through my mother's inspection. I happened to be with my mother at the time and heard the debriefing. ”

Ji Xun: "And then?" ”

The coffin that can't be contained is not a catastrophic thing, but a very special thing.

Nan Jing also said: "Then. . . There is no then. ”

She just saw it.

I don't have access to the secrets of that level at all.

“.”

Ji Xun was also a little helpless when he heard it.

This Miss Pill Head obviously has a big family background, so she doesn't know why she asks three questions.

Originally, I thought she should know a lot of secrets.

Can this question.

Hey!

Ji Xun had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and suddenly thought of another question.

The illegitimate princesses of the royal family are so strong.

Since Nan Jing is the daughter of the high priest's family, this combat power is too mediocre.

He directly asked his doubts: "By the way, your mother didn't teach you some of the high priest's secret method inheritance?" ”

“.”

I don't know why, Miss Marukotou, who is obviously cute and slow, instantly understood when she heard this at this moment.

The slightly resentful expression seemed to speak: I understand, you just mean my dish.

Nan Jing pursed his lips slightly, and responded: "The inheritance of the high priest does not need to be taught, and our Nan family has a special way of inheritance. When my mother dies, I will inherit the high priesthood. ”

“.”

When Ji Xun heard this, he suddenly realized: Empowerment Dafa?

Well, I'm alone.

Since there are skill cards in this world, this inheritance method is also reasonable.

These ancient families will always jump out in some strange places to refresh their cognition.

Ji Xun returned to the topic just now, and asked again: "What about the group after they went in with the coffin?" What has happened to your royal court? It's different from before. For example, who died, a replacement in a key position or something"

Someone guided him, and Nanjing's thinking became much clearer in an instant.

She thought about it for a while, and suddenly said, "After that, the 'plague' appeared!" ”

"The plague?"

Ji Xun also thought of something when he listened.

The last time I went to "Greedy Mine", Nanjing and the others went to find a potion to cure the plague.

Even in the maze of the cemetery before, Chu Jiu and Nan Jing seemed to be looking for potions to replenish.

Now that he looked at the cause and effect, he also said casually: "The plague was brought by the coffin?" ”

"One more point!"

Nan Jing seemed to suddenly open his mind, thought of something one after another, and said, "Because I am a doctor." So since I came back with the witch formula, I've been helping with the plague in quarantine. And, not long after, I confirmed that I was infected myself! Strangely, I didn't show any signs of disease. When I told my mother about this, she took me for some tests and seemed surprised. I remember saying that the plague might not be a virus, but more like a supernatural contamination of a higher law. ”

"Are you infected with the plague and have no disease?"

Hearing this, Ji Xun also felt a flash of inspiration, as if he felt that he had grasped the point.

Now it seems that there is a high probability that there is a problem with the coffin.

But the cause of the plague is not yet important.

The point is

Since it is a large-scale infection, there is no lesion in Nanjing.

This can only show that her body is very special.

In other words, it may be said that it is probability.

At that time, the identity of Nanjing also has the inheritor of the high priest.

Intuition told Ji Xun.

Nanjing was hunted down, probably not because of something.

And it's because of her person!

Ji Xun asked again: "Then, your mother found out about this and let you escape with your belongings?" ”

"Hmm!"

Nanjing seemed to understand, and her whole pretty face lit up.

In the past few days, the escape has been muddy, and it seems that I have seen the reason all at once.

But after thinking about it, her brow furrowed again.

She couldn't understand what this had to do with being hunted down, so she murmured, "But. . . Mother didn't say anything. ”

Hear the words.

Ji Xun also fell into deep thought.

He couldn't figure out why her mother had told her to escape first, but she didn't say anything.

His eyes rolled, and thoughts raced in his head.

Nan Jing's mother must have discovered something, otherwise she would not have let Nan Jing escape in advance.

But since she didn't say it, unless.

Is it impossible to say?

But why can't you say that?

Ji Xun immediately realized that this might be something beyond his own cognition.

Fortunately, there are enough books to read.

He thought of some of the records in the scriptures.

There are many mysterious means in this world, such as prophecy and divination, and once they are spoken, they leave traces in time and space.

Some of the higher beings are able to follow those traces and perceive them.

It's like there is a saying in ancient books that when you mention the name of a god, you will be detected by the high-level consciousness in the dark.

In addition, Ji Xun couldn't think of any reason why Nan Jing's mother found out something, but he didn't say it.

But it was at the thought of this that he gasped.

Looking at Miss Marukotou in front of him, who didn't seem to understand the situation yet, he felt that this matter was so strong that it involved a very big cause and effect.

Thinking about it again, this cute and cute girl is a proper emperor in the interdimensional space every time, could it be that it is not shit luck, but that she has a physical problem?

I thought about it for a while.

Nan Jing was also a little uncomfortable staring at him, and asked, "Mr. Ji Xun, why are you looking at me like this?" ”

Ji Xun listened, came back to his senses, and frowned.

He knew that if he asked like this, he would definitely not be able to ask anything.

Thinking of something, he said, "I think you can go through the things that your mother asked you to bring out." There may be something very important in it. ”

Nanjing listened to the pretty face but was slightly bitter, obviously tried.

She said directly: "Mr. Ji Xun, why don't you help me take a look?" I've done a rough look before. Nothing special was found. ”

“.”

Ji Xun listened to this, his expression was slightly speechless.

It's okay to change it to ordinary people.

But the kingdom of Orlan is an ancient kingdom that has ruled the underworld for thousands of years.

The royal treasure is probably a priceless treasure that no great nobleman dares to imagine today.

Even if he is in exile, how can he not have a treasure as something entrusted by the old mother of the high priest?

Is this girl really not guarding against an outsider at all?

Ji Xun complained: "Aren't you afraid that if you find any treasure, I will rob it for you in minutes?" ”

Nan Jing listened but looked unimpressed: "Ah, Mr. Ji Xun has a fancy to him, so he will send it to you." ”

Originally, I entrusted him with the storage ring, so I had this idea.

If you can't live, you might as well give everything to your friends.

“.”

Ji Xun's expression was slightly different when he listened.

But he didn't say anything, just helped Nanjing rummage through those things together.

He felt that only by finding a certain "key" could the hidden danger of Nanjing being hunted down be completely solved.

But only to help tidy up.

Ji Xun didn't think that outsiders would be able to discover the hidden methods left by the high priest of Orlan who didn't know how many levels of card masters it was.

As he sorted it out, he reminded, "Think of some of the secrets that only you and your mother know. For example, the nursery rhymes that I sang to you when I was a child, birthday gifts, some shared riddles, anagrams, proverbs, etc."

Nanjing also had an idea in an instant, and responded: "Oh." ”

With such a trustworthy helper, she can also calm down and think.
