Chapter 177: The Final Secret in the Ruins
Ji Xun successfully got the second [Copper Fish], and the four of them jumped down from the ghost tower.
The Beast Legion guards who had aroused hatred before were probably dead, and the calamity in the vicinity had subsided.
This operation was not dangerous because of the previous backtracks, and there was still plenty of time.
The four of them walked towards the waterfall they had discovered earlier.
As you walk, you can make small talk.
In the battle just now, the most surprising thing was Ji Xun's outrageous strength.
Just now, I watched him almost beat the third-order eldest lady of the Bai family to death with a second-order order, and the blood-stirring picture was now in my mind for a long time.
In other words, this kind of question involving people's privacy will be asked very carefully.
But Che Er's heart was clear, so he asked directly, with envy on his face: "Wow Mr. Jixun, are you really just a second-order card master?" How could it be so powerful. ”
Ji Xun didn't know how to explain it, and responded with a smile: "Because the imprint and the career card are more special." ”
Hearing this, the old man Xu on the side rolled his eyes, and said something nice: "This level is not only something that can be achieved by foreign objects." There are some abilities in your kid that don't die a few times, it's hard to comprehend."
Ji Xun heard and knew that he was talking about the Fifty-Two Demon Mystery Method, and he also smiled and did not deny it.
He has been able to get to this point, and it is indeed more than just three or two sentences that can be made clear.
“.”
Katerina, who was still being supported on the side, listened, although her expression remained unchanged.
But the heart is also not at peace.
Along the way, this guy has refreshed her impression again and again.
The most shocking change was just now.
A top-level nobleman like her, she has seen countless talented people since she was a child, but even so, she has never seen such an outrageous second-order card master.
The descendants of the old aristocratic families are not short of extraordinary resources, and she knows the strength of Bai Wei's woman very well, at least she has not heard of any defeat at the same level.
But the fact is, just let a second-order card master almost kill him?
If you don't see it with your own eyes, it's really hard to be confident.
Thinking of this, Caterina also sighed slightly.
Thinking back to the scene just now, I still have lingering palpitations.
If it weren't for Ji Xun discovering that woman in advance, he really let Bai Wei parasitize and steal his luck life, which would be more serious than the consequences of losing his life.
So she was also curious about how Ji Xun found out, so she asked, "How did you find out that woman was parasitic on me?" ”
Hearing this, Ji Xun's expression was slightly playful, and he hesitated slightly: "Well, this"
Caterina looked at his expression and immediately understood something: "Guess? ”
As she spoke, her expression became a little resentful, and she said, "Then if I guess wrong, I will be beaten in vain?" ”
Ji Xun spread his hands and generously admitted, "Hmm." ”
“.”
Caterina was momentarily speechless.
It didn't take long for the four of them to come to the waterfall again.
I got two [Bronze Snakes], and the confusion prohibition on the stone carving seemed to suddenly be ineffective.
Only then did Ji Xun see the line of handwriting he had carved, and his eyes were contemplative.
Last time, I killed Katarina, so I chose to engrave here, and then go back in time.
Now that people are still alive, they naturally don't need it.
But thinking that maybe putting the bronze snake into the statue may not necessarily break through the realm of time rewind, or it will trigger some other changes.
Instinctively, some thoughts popped into his head.
Do you want to leave some clues?
For example, the news that Bai Wei can send.
Thinking of this, the corners of Ji Xun's mouth raised slightly, and he immediately vetoed the idea: "It's not that you can pass this time, if you go back, you won't be able to pass it, right?" ”
If you do it again, you can experience happiness again.
This weird smile made the eyes of the three Caterina around them jump.
At the same time, they also understood why this guy didn't leave clues, but left some seemingly inconsequential ones.
But I didn't want to change anything.
It seems that from beginning to end, it was this guy who was breaking the game.
When they interject again, it seems redundant.
However, so far, neither the remnants of angels nor the taboos related to the old gods in the seal have really appeared.
That was probably the most terrifying existence in the entire Xia Mu City Ruins.
Put this key on, and there is a high probability that a real fatal crisis will appear.
Ji Xun thought about it, but still turned his head and asked: "Senior, I opened it?" ”
He has the [Shroud of Light and Darkness] on him, as well as the "Secret Book of the Silver Moon", and theoretically has a better chance of saving his life than others.
But the three people around him are not necessarily.
Old man Xu also realized the problem, a touch of casual thought flashed in his cloudy eyes, and nodded: "Open." ”
As it turned out, the old man's intuition about crises was by no means comparable to anyone's.
He said that it can be opened, and there is a high probability that it can.
When Ji Xun heard this, he didn't hesitate anymore, and directly put the two [Bronze Snakes] in the groove of the stone carving.
The head and tail of the two copper snakes bite together, forming an Ouroboros pattern.
Then the pattern spun.
"Click", "Click", "Click".
The ancient mechanism that had been sealed for countless years was opened, and the sound of stones rubbing against me could be heard.
Ji Xun was ready to face some unknown monster and rush out, but he didn't expect nothing to happen.
But Che Er also sensed some changes at the level of the law and said: "It seems that time is normal." ”
At this time, Ji Xun looked at the enlightenment but appeared: "Crack the curse of Xia Mucheng's time regression, Xia Mu's necromantic affinity +50"
Seeing this, he also muttered: "It's really broken."
That's a good thing.
But it also means that they have no chance of going back to death.
Even when the copper fish was embedded, they also knew that in the invincible pit they had come down before, the thick fog was gradually fading.
At this moment, the dozens of large and small hunter camps on the edge of the pit discovered this sudden change at the same time.
"Look! The fog is gone! ”
"There's an ancient city in the pit!"
"Hurry up, you're going to make a fortune"
“.”
For a time, hunters and major families sent people to the pit.
This time, they realized that the strange enchantment that seemed like a man-eating monster before had disappeared.
Almost immediately, a large army that had long been preparing to go frantically poured into the ruins of Xia Mu City.
And at this moment, Kak Dashao and Bai Wei, who were still near the thirty-three ghost building, also found an abnormality.
Because the communicator that has been cut off from the outside has actually responded?!
Kark didn't understand what was going on, and his face was full of doubt: "This"
Bai Wei's face changed: "Those guys have found the key to cracking the ruins!" ”
The four of them looked at the stone steps that appeared behind the waterfall in front of them that led to the ground, and their expressions were all cautious.
But since it's already open, it's natural to go in.
Ji Xun glanced at Old Man Xu again, this guy's obscene expression in the past was exhausted, as if he remembered something, and his eyes were confused and profound.
After waiting for a few breaths, to everyone's surprise, Old Man Xu walked down the stairs as if he had lost his soul.
Ji Xun and Che Er both knew that Old Man Xu had been looking for something that he didn't know what it was, but "something very important" for countless years.
Now it seems to have been found.
They didn't try to stop it, and they didn't open their mouths.
I advise this old man to be careful, it is better to be careful himself.
The two followed.
When he stepped into the steps, Ji Xun clearly felt as if he was stepping into an ice cave, and a feeling that made his soul tremble instantly hit his heart.
The indescribable feeling came back again, indicating some great terror hidden beneath the earth.
He glanced back at Caterina and confirmed, "Do you want to go in?" ”
You can't go back when you die this time.
Ji Xun and they all have their own reasons to take risks, but this eldest lady who is still seriously injured doesn't need it.
But Caterina hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
Although the trial was good as long as she lived, it made her make the decision she wanted to make.
The Gold of Destiny tells her that she is at a very important juncture in her life at this moment.
She wanted to go down and have a look, too.
Without saying much, a few people walked into the dark corridor.
There was a strange energy floating in the air, but Ji Xun could clearly distinguish that this was the power of the dark elements of those [dark matter crystals] before.
It's so rich, you don't have to think about it, there must be some extremely dangerous source of pollution down there.
Descending the ancient stone steps, the four of them did not encounter any mechanisms.
Soon they were in a huge subterranean space.
Although there was no light, the light of magical energy lit up on the spells around it illuminated the entire space clearly.
Incantations are inscribed all over the space, and there are three very conspicuous things in the center.
It immediately attracted the attention of the four people.
A coffin with black gas, a stone tablet nearly three meters high, and a statue of a spider with a human face.
They are arranged in the center of this altar-like underground palace in a triangular shape.
Not to mention these three incomprehensible things, it is those dense incantations, which make people dizzy.
It was like a fish suddenly swimming into the sea from a river, and the feeling of glimpsing the endless ocean in my heart seemed to collapse the old worldview in an instant.
Ji Xun looked at it and narrowed his eyes slightly.
If it's hard to explore, it's a true "T-class relic".
No one in the entire Federation has ever seen such a super-level spell enchantment.
When Caterina saw this scene, her crystal eyes were full of brilliance, and she couldn't help but exclaim: "Is this the pre-cataclysmic Taron civilization. It's really shocking! ”
The more people like her who stand at the top of the cardmaster's pyramid, the more they can see what the super-level items in this ruin represent.
And that kind of big shock from the bottom of my heart.
Even if these spells are researched even a little bit, they will inevitably have earth-shaking changes in the entire card master world.
Ji Xun didn't have such a high ideological consciousness, he glanced at the layout of the dungeon.
At first glance, I was attracted by the spider-faced statue that was chained all over its body.
I've seen it in the extradimensional space of "Outpost War" before, and it's the "Lord of Dreams and Pleasures" Arachne.
The people of the Silver Moon Sect came for this statue.
Seeing the dense rune chains, he also understood that the coffin and the stone tablet were all to seal this existence.
Even from the moment you enter this dungeon, the enlightenment never stops: "You are exempt from the intense contamination of faith from Arakne, the Lord of Dreams and Pleasures."
The closer you go, the stronger the inspiration becomes.
"There is still such a strong divine power left?"
Ji Xun's eyes narrowed slightly, and he also felt surprised and surprised.
This belief in divine power is a pollution that others cannot avoid.
For him, it's the best nourishment for a clown mask!
This was countless times richer than the little bit of divine substance he had stripped from the Light and Darkness Holy Nail before.
It was hard for him to imagine how strong he would be if the clown mask was absorbed.
"I have to find a way to absorb the divine power in this statue."
Ji Xun's eyes narrowed slightly.
Where can I find this kind of opportunity?
But the question also comes, this statue is sealed by the coffin and the stele chain, how to get it?
However, before I could think about it, I suddenly heard someone speak next to me: "Don't look at that statue, it's an old god, and it's very polluting." Jiushi will inevitably fall into the same dreams and illusions as the ghost building. ”
Ji Xun and the three of them turned their heads and looked over, and it turned out to be Old Man Xu who spoke?
changed the obscene image of the past, this old man was dressed in a windless robe, with white eyebrows and a light beard.
Just standing in place, there is an indescribable high-spirited temperament overflowing from all over his body!
Ji Xun's eyes were full of anticipation: "This old man's memory has recovered?" ”
However, without thinking too much, Old Man Xu walked towards the stone tablet in the center of the underground palace, and at the same time said in his mouth: "Second boy, you came with me." ”
"Oh. Grandfather. ”
Che Er glanced at Ji Xun and the two of them, and followed obediently.
As if remembering something, Old Man Xu also added: "Also, that female doll, you also come with me." How much you can grasp depends on your own personality. ”
When Caterina heard this, she looked overjoyed, and hurriedly followed: "Thank you, senior." ”
Ji Xun was also surprised when he heard this, if I remember correctly, this old man was the first time that he took the initiative to talk to Caterina.
But
Both were called away.
What about me?
Ji Xun was a little embarrassed.
Now he's going along, or what?
If it was the old man Xu before, Ji Xun would definitely be cheeky.
But now this unfathomable old man Xu made him feel that it was difficult to take a step without permission.
Fortunately, Che Er was still thinking about him, and asked directly: "Grandpa, where is Mr. Ji Xun?" ”
"Him?"
Hearing this, Old Man Xu glanced back at Ji Xun, and the wrinkled old face actually smiled?
What does this mean?
Ji Xun also looked fierce.
It's like recognizing some acquaintance, or seeing through something.
Old man Xu shook his head slightly, didn't speak, and left directly.
Ji Xun stayed in place with an embarrassed face.
"What's going on?"
Ji Xun was confused.
He saw a lot of things from the meaningful eyes of Old Man Xu just now.
But I didn't see the idea of letting him follow.
Ji Xun couldn't figure it out, so he looked at Old Man Xu and the three of them walked straight to the stone tablet and stopped to watch.
This stele is what Old Man Xu is looking for?
Ji Xun guessed in his heart.
Far away, he wanted to see what was written on the stele.
But no matter how you look at it, you can't see it clearly.
And it was this blinking time, and when I looked back, I found that the three of them were gone?!
"Huh?"
Just when Ji Xun thought that something had happened to the three of them, he took a closer look and saw that they were there again.
This.
Ji Xun blinked, making sure he was not mistaken.
The three men had been in front of the stele and had not moved.
But it seems to be integrated with the surrounding environment, and people will actively ignore their existence.
Near-cosmic laws?
"What's the situation with the old man?"
When Ji Xun saw this, he also knew that this abnormal situation was directly related to Old Man Xu.
However, I'm obviously very curious, why don't you bring me one?
Ji Xun thought faintly.
But just think about it.
He vaguely guessed that Old Man Xu might have seen something more.
Idle is also idle, Ji Xun simply walked over to take a look.
I'm going to see if I can directly absorb the divine power leaked from the stone carving of the statue.
However, after walking a few steps, suddenly the package that he had been carrying behind him bulged, as if there was some living thing to come out.
Ji Xun's eyes shrank slightly: "Finally can't help it." ”
He sensed the abnormality, and threw the backpack close to his waist more than ten meters away.
Looking at it again, the [Shroud of Light and Darkness] suddenly flashed with silver light, and as soon as the six-pointed star formation appeared, a beautiful figure burst out of the formation.
As soon as she came out, she echoed the divine power on the statue.
Although he was wearing a cloak and covering his face, Ji Xun also recognized it immediately, this was the mysterious Silver Moon Leader.
Looking at the visitor, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said directly: "Why are you here?" ”
The leader of the silver moon glanced at the idol, then looked at Ji Xun, and said with a smile: "You did a good job." ”
“.”
When Ji Xun heard this, he groaned for a moment.
I already knew I was exposed.
When he got the [Shroud of Light and Darkness] before, he had doubts about how such an important thing could be given to him.
Just to save your life?
Apparently not.
He also guessed that there was something wrong with the shroud.
But limited by cognition, I never knew what the problem was.
It wasn't until he had seen the methods of the eldest lady of the Bai family that Ji Xun guessed that this might be the case.
The leader of the Silver Moon wanted him to bring in the psychic medium.
Seeing that the woman was about to go towards the statue, Ji Xun didn't take chances, he asked directly, "When did you find out that I had a problem?" ”
Hearing this, the Silver Moon Leader smiled: "After the seal was broken, I used secret techniques to explore this secret realm, and then I received a revelation from the great Lord Arakne. He said I had an ungodly believer around me. ”
When Ji Xun heard this, he suddenly said, "Oh." I see. ”
I knew that my faith was not tainted and that it would be exposed, but sooner or later.
Not surprising either.
But he never took chances that he wouldn't be discovered.
After all, even if it is discovered, it is still useful, and there is no danger to life in a short period of time.
It's like the situation now.
The Silver Moon Leader looked at Ji Xun and agreed, "You are smarter than what I see. But since you had guessed that I would use it, why did you bring this shroud in? ”
Ji Xun listened to the half-truths and half-truths: "In order to save my life." ”
The pollution of the angel's body is not something that he, a small second-order, can bear, and carrying a shroud with him is also a little more protection.
And one more point.
With or without it, the ending is the same.
Regardless of whether or not the Shroud is discovered in advance, once the realm of time travel is broken, the Silver Moon Leader will inevitably come.
It's better to take the initiative into your own hands.
At least know where she'll show up.
And Ji Xun can also judge based on this, and choose to leave a code all the way, let Xie Guozhong and those people in Bureau X come!
It was in a few breaths of this conversation that the Silver Moon Leader also figured out something.
She didn't want to talk to Ji Xun, as soon as the moonlight appeared on her body, she headed towards the statue of the old god!
However, at this time, not far from the entrance, a guy who was full of anger also rushed in.
It's Xie Guozhong!
Not just one person, but behind him were several powerful agents of Bureau X.
Ji Xun also breathed a sigh of relief when he saw it: "Did you catch up?"
Chatting more delays this little bit of time, but it makes sense after all.
It is the responsibility of Bureau X to deal with such a thing as pollution, and the situation in this ruin is so serious, he is sure that Xie Guozhong and they will definitely be the first to go to the pit.
As soon as these people came, they exchanged hands with the leader of the silver moon in the blink of an eye.
It is also a loss that the dungeon is strong, otherwise the battle of these high-level card masters with full firepower will collapse in minutes.
This level of combat Ji Xun doesn't even want to see the excitement.
But just as he was trying to find a place to wait for the situation to be decided, he suddenly watched a cloaked man walk in from the outside without hurrying.
The guy didn't pay any attention to the fight in the sky, and walked towards the stone monument.
"The people of the Thirteen Kamen Riders?"
Ji Xun looked at the cloak style and immediately thought of the description on the wanted notice.
Although I haven't seen the lines, this style of cloak, coupled with the momentum of the leisurely stroll, is likely to be.
"But then again, Chu Jiu is also a member of this organization now, right?"
Ji Xun didn't have a bad impression of the Thirteen Knights.
Although I couldn't understand what this man was doing, I didn't think he was an enemy.
He watched the cloaked man walk straight over like this, and then stopped in front of the stone tablet like the three old men Xu and watched.
And while reading, I took out a small notebook and recorded something.
Ji Xun became more and more curious in his heart, what was written on the stone tablet?
The situation in the dungeon has become a little weird.
On one side, Xie Guozhong and the leader of Yinyue had a lively fight, and on the other side, several people silently looked at the contents on the stone tablet.
Several forces seem to have nothing to do with each other, each doing its own thing.
Ji Xun thinks about it, let's take a look?
However, it didn't take long for the mutation to regenerate.
At this time, four more cloaked men rushed into the dungeon.
Ji Xun really didn't understand which force these four cloaked people were this time.
After they came in, they didn't get involved in anything, they just stood from afar and watched the battle, looking like they wanted to wait for the fisherman's profit?
"Someone from the Lionhearts? The Bai family? The Cao family? ”
Ji Xun thought about all kinds of possibilities, but he didn't feel right.
If it's one of these families, there's no need to hide your head and tail.
And also watched the battle.
But looking at the calm momentum of those four cloaked people, it is obvious that they are top masters again.
Ji Xun watched his eyelids twitch sharply, and he already had the intention of retreating.
He is fond of watching lively.
But this level of excitement is no longer something he can see.
If you don't count the masked people who didn't make a move, the situation is almost clear.
The leader of the silver moon was besieged by several people, and it was difficult to support the lonely tree, and it seemed that it was difficult to break the seal.
If you continue to fight like this, there is a high probability that you will be killed, or you will be repulsed.
However, just when Ji Xun thought that the general situation would develop like this, an accident happened again.
Some people in the dungeon were looking at the stone monuments, and some were watching the fights.
No one noticed that at the coffin of the triangular formation, a cloaked man suddenly appeared.
As if out of thin air, when the guy was found, he didn't know how to use to push open the black coffin.
The coffin was opened, and an indescribable sense of horror instantly swept through the entire dungeon.
It is this feeling that makes people notice that there is an extra person in the underground palace.
Ji Xun looked at the cloaked man who quietly pushed the coffin, his eyelids twitched, and he didn't know how to describe it in his heart, and complained: "Another one?" Is it a cloaked man party today?"
Judging by the style of the cloak, and the equally stunned attitude of several other cloaked people, it should not be a group.
However, it's not the Silver Moon Sect, it's not the Thirteen Knights, it's not who the mysterious quartet is?
And, he actually opened the coffin?
It's not just Ji Xun who was shocked.
Seeing this sudden change, the expressions of the various forces were different.
Silver Moon Boss Happy!
The faces of the people in the X bureau have changed greatly!
The boys were full of doubts!
The Thirteen Knights still didn't bother at all.
But there is a common doubt in everyone's minds.
Who is this guy?
What are you going to do?
