Chapter 216: The Study

Not one card, but two.

After the transcendent characteristics converge,

Not only did Queen Catherine's corpse appear on the class card [Scourge Golem], but even her legendary sigil card [9 of Spades - Scourge] was also parsed.

It also makes sense.

This Orlan queen fuses the best quality cards of her rank.

The structure of both the sigil and the class card is very stable, and the extraordinary characteristics are rich, and the probability of analysis is much greater than that of the cards fused by ordinary people.

Ji Xun didn't have much idea about that priceless legendary demon mark.

But looking at the [Scourge Golem], his mind came alive.

This is a career card that has never appeared on the market, and it is a gem exclusive to the Oran royal family.

Two hundred years ago, the Γ…land dynasty collapsed and a federal government was formed.

From a certain point of view, the essence of this coup d'Γ©tat is to fight the gentry and divide the family property.

But it seems that the property of the local tyrant has been divided, but in fact, those remnants of the old era have already transferred most of the good things that have been passed down for thousands of years in advance.

Now that these Orlan royal families are showing up, these good things are reappearing in the world.

At least tonight, Ji Xun will have an eye-opener from this Queen Catherine.

"Dark gold quality."

Ji Xun's pupils shrank slightly.

It was the first time he'd seen a card of this quality.

The quality of dark gold can be said to be the best in gold, and it can also be said to be a legendary version of the regression, which is hard to find.

It's still the original template.

Needless to say, the basic attributes are absolutely full.

Otherwise, Queen Catherine would not have been able to withstand the contamination of angel wings.

Of course, the most important thing is the class ability that comes with the card itself.

Although this is a mutilated bloody card, you can't see a specific class kicker.

But Ji Xun has read all kinds of "Card Master Encyclopedias" and heard of this "natural disaster sequence".

Although there has always been a saying in the card division world that "there is no strongest sequence, only the strongest card master".

But in fact, there is also a general perception in people's hearts, that is, the combat power of the high sequence is usually stronger than that of the low sequence, and the professional ability is also more weird.

This [9 of Spades - Natural Disaster] is already a high-order profession.

It is said that after the fusion, you will be able to master the power of the real natural disaster.

For example: earthquakes, volcanoes, storms, extreme cold, burning cities, plagues, famines.

The fire forbidden spell that Catherine used at every turn before was the ability of this class sequence.

It is said that the spell of this natural calamity sequence can be colloquially understood as "the arcane version of the elemental spell".

"What a card"

Ji Xun looked really greedy.

Although the fourth order was still far away, he hadn't figured out what direction he wanted to advance.

But that ability to control natural disasters is fake if you don't look greedy.

He's a joker, and he doesn't have to think about containment.

Naturally, this card is a perfect fit.

Chu Jiu sealed the angel's wings, and then completely wrapped them in a scroll of incantations.

The main story of this poker game is nearing its end.

Snow White defeats the Poison Queen with the help of a knight and advances to become the Ice Queen.

Ji Xun also discovered that after killing Catherine, the aura on Chu Jiu's body was obviously a lot more ethereal.

It seems that it is not just revenge, this assassination is also in line with some kind of special "advanced ritual".

Maybe that's what the game is all about?

But now is not the time to think about anything else.

Ji Xun realized.

The story draws to a close, and the game is over.

Although they succeeded in killing their target, it was in the Lion City after all.

Outside the barrier, I'm afraid it's surrounded by heavy troops now.

The Oran dynasty is not only the queen Catherine, but also the new king and many court masters, who are also in the city.

Ji Xun thought before that Orlan's side was really the "remnants of the old era" in the mouth of the federal officials, and the big deal was that some of the exiled remnants who were hiding in XZ should not be strong in overall strength.

But now he's changed.

The mother of Nanjing, who has seen it, and the old man of the earth system who is fighting angrily next door, there are at least two legends on the surface.

From this point of view, there are definitely quite a few top powerhouses among the remnants of Orlan.

The queen is killed, which will inevitably set off a counterattack at any cost.

After all, Thirteen Kamen Riders are still a small independent organization, and it is absolutely unwise to go head-to-head with such a behemoth.

That leader, the Lightseeker, had apparently planned that way.

Now that the people have been killed, they are fleeing.

As soon as Chu Jiu sealed the angel's wings, the "Light Chaser" on the side took out a card and shouted: "Spell: Five Senses Blur." ”

As soon as the words fell, the enchantment of the gambling game dimmed, and it looked like it was about to collapse.

At the same time, explosions rang out everywhere in the entire banquet hall.

The fog of war also enveloped the audience in an instant, and the five fingers were lost in an instant.

This is not an ordinary fog, and even the five senses such as hearing and smell are limited to a small range.

Even because he was in the fog, his spirit was in a trance.

Ji Xun's perception of transforming into a werewolf felt so strong, let alone others.

However, this hand of "smoke bombs" is also just right.

Confuses everyone's perception.

This is the best chance of escape.

Just when Ji Xun was thinking about how to run, a cold aura approached him.

In the fog, Chu Jiu whispered in an ear: "Ji Xun, borrow the cross first." This [Angel Remnant] will definitely not give up. The outside is already surrounded, we go out to attract enemy fire, you be careful yourself. ”

"Hmm."

Ji Xun listened and nodded.

He also understood that the Thirteen Knights had already made a complete plan, and the angel body with them would inevitably attract firepower.

His current strength is not worthy of being compared to several of the Thirteen Knights.

Walking together is simply a drag oil bottle.

Instead, if he stays, others will think that he escaped with his "accomplices" and is safer.

There was no need to say much between the two, and while communicating, Ji Xun found that there were two more things in his hand.

A package of spell seals, and a card.

As an old friend, Chu Jiu completely understands what he wants.

I don't know what it is in the package, but the card is the dark gold quality [Scourge Golem].

The chill disappeared, Ji Xun reached out and touched it, and the cross beside him was gone.

Also breathed a sigh of relief.

He is not at ease when this stump falls into the hands of others, but if he is the ninth day of the first month, it will be fine.

As for the other trophies on Queen Catherine's body, he did not ask for it, and he did not dare to touch it.

Don't think about it, there must be a lot of good things in the queen's storage ring.

Not to mention any valuable treasures, those super-level secret books that only the royal family knows are priceless.

Even the contents of the storage ring can change the existing card master world to a certain extent.

But those things are definitely a hot potato now, and no one can hold them safely except for the Thirteen Knights at the moment.

Ji Xun didn't feel pity at all.

Not to mention the old friend of Chu Jiu. If the light chaser is really Jia Yu's mushroom head, it can be regarded as a bit of friendship.

They took it, and they took it themselves, and there was not much difference.

If you have the opportunity in the future, it should be no problem to borrow classics or something.

Ji Xun thought about it a lot, and instantly changed from a werewolf state back to a human form, and the clown mask on his face had changed into a stranger's face.

The barrier was gone, and he took advantage of the chaos to blend in with the crowd.

The fog filled the audience in an instant, and the entire banquet hall was in chaos.

"It's not good, Master Kark has been assassinated!"

"Master Herman, be careful, there are assassins"

"Count Judd is wounded, doctor! Doctor! ”

"Damn it, guards! Where are the guards? ”

β€œ.”

Ji Xun mixed in the crowd, and it was obvious that he felt some murderous intentions.

Someone is taking advantage of the chaos to assassinate some of the guests.

The top combat power in the banquet hall was previously pinned down by the Thirteen Kamen Riders, and now that the barrier is broken, no one dares to be careless, protecting several top heroes who dare not leave half a step.

Those young masters and young ladies who have a lower priority don't have this treatment.

I don't know who made the first move, but in the blink of an eye, there was chaos everywhere.

The banquet hall was shrouded in fog, and most people couldn't tell whether it was the assassin or the guards who suddenly attacked.

Defend each other, everyone is an enemy.

The nerves have long been tense, but whenever you do it, it can immediately cause a chain reaction.

The sound of gunfire, the staggering of knife tips, and the sound of cards breaking through the air are endless.

Ji Xun watched the banquet hall become lively, and guessed that it was Caterina who did it.

After all, where else would there be such a good opportunity to take out those young masters and young ladies who were heavily protected?

Now that people are killed, they can still blame the Assassins.

Kill more than one stone.

Ji Xun didn't pay attention to the turmoil, but found a corner against the wall to carefully observe the surroundings.

The distorted colors on the walls had receded, and everyone had come out of the barrier of the cataclysm [X-215-Monet's Sunrise].

But at the same time, Ji Xun also immediately sensed a powerful and murderous aura sweeping the audience.

Looking at this situation, it must be the Orlan Dynasty, or the strong reinforcements of other nobles.

Almost at the same time, fierce fighting broke out not far away.

In an instant, most of the powerful aura was attracted to the past, and the two sides fought farther and farther away.

Ji Xun also knew that it was the ninth day of the first month, and they attracted the firepower.

The shock wave shattered the glass of the building, and the fog in the banquet hall gradually blew away a little.

Ji Xun looked at the frightened aristocratic ladies and gentlemen, and his mind was also thinking about a safe way out.

But now that there are still heavy guards outside, it is not a good choice to go out rashly.

If stayed

Although he thinks it's okay to disguise.

But the assassination of the queen is such a big matter, neither the Lionhearts nor the remnants of Orlan will investigate to the end.

When the time comes, the scene will be blocked and investigated one by one, and it may not be impossible to find him.

Ji Xun was thinking about a more thoughtful plan, thinking about finding a corpse on the ground and changing it to a suitable identity?

Coincidentally, at this moment, a girl in a black dress bumped into her from the fog.

It was Caterina in disguise.

She didn't recognize Ji Xun who had changed his appearance again, but when she got closer, the [Destiny Gold Coin] in her hand trembled.

Looking at Ji Xun's eyes looking at her again, Caterina immediately realized who this person was, and was surprised: "Why are you still here?" ”

The puzzled look was obviously saying, "Aren't you a member of the Thirteen Kamen Rider Organization, why did you leave someone here?"

But on second thought,

After all, although this guy was in the limelight just now, he has the strength. It's still worse than a few others.

It is indeed safer to stay.

Ji Xun smiled and shrugged, but he didn't explain.

Caterina didn't ask much, this was not the time to chat, her eyes rolled, she made a decision in an instant, and said directly: "Follow me!" ”

Ji Xun knew that she wanted to help her get out of trouble, so she didn't think much about it, and immediately followed.

I just felt that it was a bit troublesome to hide my identity, but now that I met the eldest lady of the Lionheart family, the problem seems to be solved.

Ji Xun and Caterina did not leave the building, but went up a hidden staircase.

After going up to three floors, there is no fog in sight.

It seems to be the residence of the high-rise of the Lionheart, and the style of decoration is stable and luxurious.

Ji Xun stepped on the soft precious carpet on the ground and followed the eldest lady of the Lionheart family around the labyrinthine corridor.

Walking to an inconspicuous room and observing that no one was around, Caterina opened the wooden door in front of her with an ID card.

Ji Xun also followed into the antique room with him.

Just after Ji Xun, he also found that although this room is not big, it is very cleverly arranged.

On the walls are several bookshelves piled up with various classics, and it looks like an ordinary study.

But if you look closely, you can see that there are hidden spells everywhere.

When the door is closed, everything from the outside world seems to be cut off.

Looking at Ji Xun's curiosity, Caterina also explained: "Don't worry. This is the 'Confidential Study', protected by special relics and enchantments, and will not be detected by the outside world. On weekdays, only my father can come in. ”

"Oh"

Ji Xun also understood when he listened.

It's a bit of a "safe house".

Yu Guang glanced at the [glowing ghost candlestick] that could block out the light, the [ancient record player] that could interfere with sound waves, and the [Sarac's pen] that could rest and recuperate

It's all rare ancient relics.

The furniture of the top aristocratic house is so unpretentious.

Just a few pieces can make ordinary people worry about food and clothing for a lifetime.

Entering the room, Caterina relaxed.

She ignored Ji Xun, who was visiting around, and uncovered her hood, revealing her wavy blonde hair and that pretty face.

"Whew"

Restored to her appearance, Caterina breathed a sigh of relief.

This part of her own plan tonight went well and she was in a good mood.

But without further ado, the two of them can't stay here for long.

Some traces have been exposed in the banquet hall before, and this outfit and the black dress on the body cannot be worn.

But there is no place to change clothes in this study.

Originally, it was only planned to come alone, but now there is one more.

Caterina frowned slightly.

Yu Guang saw in the mirror, glanced at the classics that Ji Xun was curious about on the bookshelf, and swallowed what he wanted to say.

It seems that after getting acquainted with this guy, I don't care about a lot of things in my heart.

With a turn of his eyes, that hesitation dissipated.

She directly reached out and untied the waist drawstring of the court skirt, and without restraint, the long skirt retreated from the delicate skin.

Inside is a thin dirty clothes, even through the clothes, you can already faintly see the majesty of Yingying.

If this was before, she was a lady from a big aristocratic family, and she would never be so bold.

But at the moment, it was incredibly natural.

As soon as she took off her skirt, Caterina raised her hand and was about to untie the silk lining, but when she glanced at it, she saw a pair of interested eyes in the mirror.

Ji Xun listened to the sound of rustling behind him, and naturally he would not be unaware.

When I turned my head, I saw that it was Caterina changing clothes, and I knew that she wanted to change her clothes and leave.

Dressing inside and out is a necessary process.

In this way, all exposed factors can be eliminated as much as possible.

They had been in the banquet hall for a long time before, and they may have been stained with some special "markings", such as smells, dust marks, and food residues. Not to mention the remnants of Orlan, other nobles also have perception masters around them.

Letting people know that they have been to the banquet hall is a big problem.

Originally, I wanted to avoid it.

But looking at the calm and calm look of this eldest lady of the Lionheart family, Ji Xun felt that he was too redundant to avoid.

I simply took a look at it with appreciation.

In the room, the atmosphere did not change in the slightest because of this glance.

Both of them had natural expressions.

Caterina only glanced at the mirror, and continued to undo the soft button.

But at the same time, she thought of something, she raised her eyebrows slightly, and reminded her behind her back: "This gentleman.?" ”

The gender view in this world is open, but as a noble lady, she has her own reserve.

I have to say something.

That being said, there was no fluctuating emotion in his tone.

Ji Xun was still interested: "I'm not a gentleman. ”

"Huh?"

Caterina sounded like she was smiling: she was thick-skinned.

But she didn't correct it, and the movements in her hands didn't stop.

Unfastened two or three hidden buttons, and a piece of snow white and delicate came into view.

Just as she was about to completely unravel it, Caterina seemed to think of something, and said again: "However, if you really want to see it, can you change back to its original appearance?" ”

Ji Xun was also curious: "Why?" ”

Caterina looked indifferent and asked rhetorically, "What do you think?" ”

β€œ.”

Ji Xun smiled when he listened.

Originally, it was just an appreciation of beauty, but if he was really rude, he would also restrain himself.

But obviously, this one doesn't mind the spring leaking out.

As she spoke, Caterina had already unbuttoned the soft lining at the last moment, and glanced in the mirror to see that someone had returned to their original appearance.

The last trace of hesitation in the eyes of the eldest lady of the Lionheart family also disappeared, and her pretty face was extremely natural.

No wonder I always felt weird just now, and it was because of this.

She complained in a slightly helpless tone: "You're really welcome."

As he spoke, a pair of jade-like fingers lifted the soft lining without hesitation, and the majestic chest was completely exposed to the air.

The entire upper body was already exposed to the air.

The flawless beauty of the back, the skin has a kind of delicate jade.

Although his back was facing Ji Xun, in the mirror in the corner of the wall, the front could be seen clearly.

Caterina stood proudly and looked at herself in the mirror, her eyes shining slightly.

She didn't feel awkward at all, and continued generously.

Bending down slightly, his fingers hooked down the light trousers, and with a hook of his legs, the light shorts fell lightly to the side.

At this moment, the beautiful figure is completely unconcealed.

There was a faint fragrance in the air.

This also allows the gaze of the person behind her to fall from her back all the way down the silky skin, from the beautiful back to the slender waist, and then from the straight slipper, and then to the pair of slender and straight long legs.

Like morning dew drops gently sliding down the petals of roses, it is a delicate and delicate softness in the eyes.

How could Caterina not know that the gaze behind her was admiring, and she would have felt more or less uncomfortable before.

But at the moment she stood there with great calm.

It is like the most delicate silver mist rose that blooms proudly among the colorful flowers in the garden.

She can even casually ask, "How's that?" ”

"Very good."

Ji Xun raised his eyebrows approvingly.

It is round and straight, and the appearance is impeccable, and this figure is indeed flawless.

It's not the first time I've seen it, but it's the first time I've looked at it with appreciation.

The most important thing is that the temperament is different.

He also found that this "Silver Mist Rose" felt really different after the Hero Trial, and there was obviously a calmness and confidence on his body that was difficult to elaborate.

Caterina heard the tone and praised sincerely, and she didn't compare herself with anyone, and smiled confidently: "Thank you~"

This smile, as if to say, is a nice thing to say.

But it didn't last long.

Naturally, Caterina changed out of her dress for tonight, put on another luxurious gold-filigree dress, and lit a relic lamp in the study, disturbing the smell of the room that interfered with perception, and at the same time, she admonished: "You should also change your outfit." If you want to get out of Lion City safely, it's best to take advantage of the chaos right now. Otherwise, it will be difficult to wait for Orlan's side to react. ”

"Hmm."

Ji Xun also nodded.

He also knew that Caterina was not so troublesome alone, and with the addition of an "assassin" with a sensitive identity, many plans had to be reconsidered.

Ji Xun and Caterina stayed in the study, and they didn't care about the chaos outside.

Being able to enter this safe house means that Caterina chose to take refuge with the face of her Lionheart.

With this guarantee, Ji Xun is actually safe and worry-free.

Even if the remnants of Orlan really suspected that there were accomplices of the Thirteen Knights in this building, it would be impossible to find out here.

Wait for the outside to calm down a bit, and then go out.

After chatting a few words about tonight's situation, Ji Xun also confirmed some of his previous conjectures.

Although the Lionhearts and the Orlan Remnants are allies, the assassination of Queen Catherine is indeed the intention of the Lionhearts' higher-ups.

The reason is that the allies are too strong.

They had chosen to cooperate before, and all they needed was those resources and archives of the Oran royal family.

Of course, I don't mind treating those down-and-out royal families as vassals.

Instead of trying to find some uncontrollable careerist.

Now it seems that the remnants of Orlan have been in exile for two hundred years, and the strength of their savings is already so strong that people are a little jealous.

So you have to fold the wings of those careerists and beat them too.

By the way, Caterina will also make a calculation and rectify the situation of the heirs within the Lionheart family.

What the Lionhearts need is a lion.

Katarina, who embodies the life of a hero, is just right.

Whether it is skill or strength, she has been recognized by the top management of the Lionheart family.

Ji Xun was not interested in these political topics, and he didn't ask in detail.

After not waiting long, the two changed their clothes and left the study.

The men of the Thirteen Knights ran all the way to the ruins, and the masters of the remnants of Orlan also chased after them, and the entire male lion became a mess.

This is the best chance to evacuate.

As long as you leave the Lionheart's building, the danger is reduced by half.

Ji Xun didn't plan to stay in the city longer.

He wants to go back to the City of Innocence and find Master Merlin to refine the third-order career card.

After he advanced, he planned to go to Shangbang Prison to find out where the "gluttony" breathing method came from.
