Chapter 294: Cataclysm: Hero's Cloak
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
β.β
As soon as the rebels rushed into the mine, the bomb that Ji Xun threw at the entrance instantly detonated, collapsing a large area of rock.
However, this terrain obstacle can only stop the pursuers for a moment.
Gravel is no different from rotten wood for a high-level card master who can open mountains and crack stones.
Sure enough.
Just after the rebels entered the mine for a few breaths, the collapsed area behind them was immediately blasted open by a punch.
The military's high-ranking card division came after him.
It was a plain before, and it was impossible for the prey to escape from the encirclement no matter what, and the people of the military could wait for Battiz and several high-ranking rebels to run out of physical strength before besieging and killing.
But now, seeing the rebels scurrying into this abandoned mine pit that they didn't even know about, they immediately realized that if they didn't do anything, something would inevitably go wrong.
If you really want to let the thief leader Batis escape, even if you encircle and kill more rebels in this encirclement and suppression operation, most of your merits will be lost.
That's not what they want to see.
So much so that even if the three fifth-order captains knew the danger, they chased after them.
In the pitch-black tunnels, the walls were glowing with a dark green metallic sheen.
There was a faint smell of humidity in the air.
The scale of this hryph copper mine is not small.
The tunnels are paved with flat rails, which also allow the steam locomotives to pass smoothly.
Ji Xun rode a steam motorcycle on the rotten minecart rails.
He was followed by a dozen surviving rebel armies.
The cramped mine made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
But then the gloom came over everyone's faces.
Although the mine can stop the military from encircling and suppressing it, it also means that they are trapped here.
If there is no other way out, this mine must be their burial place.
At a gallop, Battius glanced at Ji Xun, who was in the lead.
It was a surprise to be able to find this mine to catch its breath.
But now was not the time to be polite, he asked urgently, "Brother Chaoyang, where are we going now?" β
It's not a pity to die by yourself.
But if others can live.
It is one to be able to live.
Ji Xun didn't ink, and shouted: "There is an underground river under this mine. But I don't know which area either! β
When he looked through the city-state records of Valen, he saw a record: "On March 16, 2999 in the Talon calendar, more than 200 miners were killed in a water seepage accident in the Griff green copper mining area."
That accident was when the mine was digging into an underground river, which led to a major accident.
But the records do not say exactly where the accident happened.
The mine is very large.
The mine is thousands of kilometers deep from the ground, and the mining area is conservatively estimated to be hundreds of square kilometers.
With such a large mining area, it is difficult to find the area where the accident occurred in a short period of time.
Therefore, even if Ji Xun came here, he didn't think he would be able to survive.
I just feel like there's a silver lining.
"Underground river?"
"If you find it, you may be saved!"
As soon as these words came out, a ray of hope instantly appeared in everyone's desperate expressions.
They all understood what Ji Xun was referring to.
If there is an underground river, then it is possible that they will escape along the underground waterway.
Although it is not known where it will go, neither does the military.
This can have a higher chance of survival than a frontal breakout.
Moreover, there is no encirclement and suppression by large troops, and the more complex the terrain, the more difficult the individual combat power can also be brought into full play.
They also have a little bit of the initiative.
But the truth is, the pursuers behind will not let them find the underground river so smoothly.
It was in the blink of an eye that the cave that collapsed behind him was once again blasted open by the terrifying elemental qi wave.
Three fifth-order captains wearing standard military uniforms, and a group of high-ranking officers, had already appeared murderously a hundred and ten meters away.
This distance is just a dash distance for high-level card masters.
Life and death can be in the blink of an eye.
At this time, the mine also came to a fork in the road.
A fierce flash flashed in Battis's eyes, and he immediately decided: "Let's go separately!" I'll stop them! β
In the current situation, if we continue to get together, there is no luck except for being completely annihilated by the military.
He also knew very well that only his fifth order could stop those three captains.
As soon as the words fell, a strange aura evaporated from Battis's body, and it seemed that he had used some desperate secret method.
He leapt off his motorcycle, an eerie ripple that shook the void on his blades.
The three captains looked at their expressions and were instantly solemn, not daring to be careless at all.
Before everyone could react, Battiz had already rushed over.
In the narrow cave, a fierce battle has broken out.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
β.β
There were a few muffled sounds, and the ground shook.
Battis's figure was drowned in a cloud of dust.
At this time, Enlightenment also appeared: "Main plot change: Your behavior has changed the military's plan for the roundup, the breakout team has been cornered, and you need to survive the roundup"
Ji Xun also breathed a sigh of relief when he saw it.
Finally, I don't have to go with this group of people.
In this situation, if you continue to stay with Battis, you will definitely die.
The will of space still has a glimmer of life.
Battis's life created a moment for everyone to escape, and although the others grieved, they did not dare to stop.
In a few moments, they were already in the depths of the mine.
There are forks in the road everywhere, and the passages are becoming more and more complicated.
Ji Xun didn't know what was going on in this pit.
To survive now, you can only gamble on luck.
"Someone is chasing us! There's a fifth-order! β
"Let's go separately too! Brothers, take care. Whether you can survive or not, it's up to you! β
β.β
There are quite a few people from the military, and Battius can block a few.
But I can't stop dozens of them.
With the exception of the leader, Batis, almost everyone who survived the rebel ranks was wanted by the military with a high bounty.
Looking at these "war exploits", the military will not let them escape.
The rebels also knew that if they continued to pile up, they would inevitably be wiped out.
Each of them scattered and fled for their lives, and with the help of the caves and mines that extend in all directions, there may be a glimmer of life.
At this juncture, Ji Xun didn't hide it anymore.
As soon as he said that he would scatter and flee, he immediately twisted the "Golon" who was obviously about to fall behind, and ran into a pitch-black mine.
The others dispersed, with Alice following closely.
The mine is getting narrower and narrower, and many of the collapsed areas are no longer suitable for cycling.
Ji Xun decisively abandoned the car.
Alice's ghost carriage dissipated immediately.
She cast a spell at the same time, and a thick smoke filled her behind.
Probably because none of the three were wanted criminals, the military people went after the rebel cadres on the list for the first time.
The three of them ran for a while, and they didn't hear the movement of the pursuers behind them.
At this moment, even Ji Xun exhaled a breath of relieved turbidity.
It's safe for now.
The biggest fear of this plan is the fear of being killed by the military with absolute force.
The current situation is the most ideal.
Alice's tense face was also obviously relieved a lot.
Thinking back to the thrilling escape just now, she had a dream-like feeling.
Survived?
Although it was only temporary, Alice also found it hard to believe.
It's like I'm not doing anything.
I was taken the whole way, and I sleepwalked here in general.
The three of them ran quickly towards the ground in the mine, and she finally couldn't help but express the doubts in her heart towards Ji Xun: "Mr. Ji Xun, how do you know that there is a mine here?" β
Ji Xun responded casually: "I saw it in the Governor's Mansion before. β
"Huh?"
Alice was stunned when she listened.
Although she guessed, she still felt incredible when she heard that this was the case.
She remembered the picture of Ji Xun reading a book alone in the Archon's Mansion before.
However, with so much information in the study, this guy is really so lucky, and he happened to find the clue to this "Griff Copper Mining Area"?
Alice isn't stupid.
The only thing she could think of was that Ji Xun didn't happen to turn it over.
Rather, he may have written down all the materials he had read.
Then he can find a chance to survive from countless materials at a critical moment.
But the point is, this seems to be an extradimensional space with combat as the main line, and who is a normal person who would waste precious time reading countless ancient classics that may be completely useless?
But this guy did just that.
Alice thought of this and pouted.
While admiring, I also reconciled with myself.
It's not that I'm not smart enough.
It's that this method can't be learned by others.
If it weren't for the card master of the wisdom sequence, he wouldn't have such terrifying reading and memorization abilities at all.
After all, Aragorn commented that he was an extremely sharp and wise man.
From the moment she entered the space to the present, Alice has observed all the way, and she feels the same.
She blinked and asked, "Are you a [polymath]?" β
It seems like I'm going to die, and I don't shy away from asking questions so much.
"It's not."
Ji Xun knew what she was wondering about.
I didn't want to explain too much.
After all, you'll find out in a moment.
He was thinking about something else.
With enough experience, he doesn't think that an "S-class mission" will give them the possibility of getting away with it.
He speculated that even if they could find the underground river, there would inevitably be some accidents, which would make the plot more difficult.
If you don't have any precautions, you don't know how you'll die.
Thinking of this, Ji Xun suddenly changed the topic and asked rhetorically, "Have you paid attention to the abilities of the three fifth-order commanders just now?" How long can you hold out against any of them? β
"Huh? Fifth order? β
Alice looked at him and didn't respond directly, nor did she ask.
In her mind, she might have been a little rude.
However, I didn't expect Ji Xun to ask such an abrupt question.
After thinking about it for a moment, she responded rigorously: "Probably. A quarter of an hour. β
"Hmm"
Hearing this, Ji Xun also calculated in his heart.
He asked again, "What if it's the [Elemental Manipulator]?" β
Alice was also surprised for a moment why he asked this, and asked so accurately.
She groaned for a moment and said solemnly, "Well, in two quarters of an hour, I shouldn't be able to die." After all, my witch profession has a certain restraint on the elemental system. β
"Hmm."
Hearing this, Ji Xun nodded approvingly.
Under normal circumstances, the fourth-order is superior to the fifth-order, and there is a big difference of rank, unless there is a card master like himself who has superior strength in the same level.
Otherwise, let alone dragging, if you can catch a few attacks, it's all powerful.
Alice said that she could delay two quarters of an hour, which was much better than expected.
This also increases the probability that the two will survive.
He didn't ask this question casually.
The previous fugitive Ji Xun didn't just care about escaping.
He also carefully observed the means and combat power of almost every high-level military card master that could be seen in his field of vision.
Of course, the three captains just now were the focus of attention.
According to the results of previous observations, the three captains' class sequences are [Ace of Spades - Black Knight], [Club 8 - Elemental Controller] and [6 of Hearts - Punishment Guard].
According to Ji Xun's speculation, at least two of the three should be left before they can be sure to take Batis.
And Battius is a gladiator of the [Block A-Samurai] sequence.
If you want to entangle him in this environment, a melee card master is the best.
Therefore, there is a high probability that it is [Black Knight] and [Punishment Iron Guard].
Ruled out again, if you really want to be caught up, that [Elemental Manipulator] has the highest probability.
As soon as Alice responded, she immediately understood why he was asking.
She was a little incredulous: "You're going to fight head-on?" β
"Not what I intend to do"
Ji Xun shook his head and said indifferently: "It's that the difficulty of the S-level task is very high. We couldn't just get out alive. β
βοΌοΌοΌβ
Alice blinked, not quite understanding the seriousness of his tone.
But it's right to think about it.
Although the breakthrough just now is dangerous, most of the pressure is shared by the plot characters.
For the two of them, it can be considered A-level difficulty at best.
If she really escaped like this, Alice also felt that it was not difficult enough.
I didn't have time to think about it before, and I didn't realize what was wrong.
Now reminded by this, she nodded unconsciously and agreed: "Well, that's right." β
But after thinking for a moment, Alice's mind was like a lightning strike, and she suddenly realized that something was wrong, and asked, "Have you experienced an S-class extradimensional space before?" β
Ji Xun was still thinking about his next plan, so he responded casually and lightly: "Hmm." β
β.β
Hearing this, the corners of Alice's eyes twitched inexplicably.
No wonder I always felt that something was wrong with this guy who had been calm.
No wonder the tone is so determined.
It turned out really wrong!
And looking at his expression, this guy seems to have experienced the S plot of normal people more than once?
This guy.
Is it the kind of professional adventurer who pursues a difficult challenge?
I. What kind of guy did I meet?
Or are they such crazy people in the Eastern Wilderness?
Shock to shock.
Alice also knows that now is not the time to say this.
She also felt that there was a great possibility of a fierce battle in the future.
She rolled her eyes, and she also figured out why Ji Xun would focus on the [Elemental Manipulator], and said worriedly: "However, in addition to the captain, there are also many thousand-commanders and centurions."
One-on-one, she can hold on for a moment.
But if you really want to fight, it's a melee.
She didn't dare to be sure.
Ji Xun interrupted her worries, and said in an extremely calm tone: "The rest are not mortally threatening. β
β.β
Alice looked at this guy's expression, and for some reason, her eyelids jumped again.
No threat?
Hiss.
Aren't you also only at the fourth order?
Although the thoughtfulness brought by the wisdom sequence did solve a lot of trouble before.
But when it comes to a scuffle, it's not something that can survive with a good brain.
Alice thought back to the enemy's methods.
Thinking that there are three or five of the same rank, she herself is in danger.
However, before the complicated thoughts in her mind could be cleared, she heard thunderous words in her ears again: "If there is a real fight." You try your best to hold back the fifth order, and I will solve the others. β
It's still the same tone that doesn't fluctuate.
Alice turned her head to look at it, and her stiff expression already expressed her state of mind at the moment: this guy must be crazy!
Mind reading also confirmed her judgment.
She found that Ji Xun's mental state at the moment was very wrong!
It was so manic that it seemed to be boiling.
But the strange thing is that Ji Xun's expression and mental state are completely different situations.
His mental power is about to fry, how can he still behave so indifferently?
Alice really doesn't know, and Ji Xun is not arrogant.
It's the confidence that comes out after observation.
His current strength, as long as he doesn't encounter some special abilities like Alice, there is no threat at all within the same level.
However, in the army, in order to unify the tactics of the legion's joint attack, it is rare to configure all kinds of strange career sequences.
The previous observations during the escape also made Ji Xun remember the abilities of every enemy he saw.
The ability of "I am the world" also allows him to deduce various means of coping.
Ji Xun now also deeply understands why the original palace martial arts will evaluate the ability of the light chaser, which is not crushed by the rank, and it is difficult to kill.
But whatever you see, there is no doubt.
This ability will make the opponent in his eyes, there is no secret at all.
What is deduced is what will happen in the future.
Although Ji Xun has not yet reached that level of exaggeration, it is enough to deal with the same level.
Alice quickly hid her surprise.
She felt that she must be crazy and actually believed this guy!
Although she couldn't figure out where Ji Xun's confidence was.
But her intuition told her that this guy must match his strength calmly.
But what she didn't know was.
Ji Xun was not sure.
No matter how strong he was, he was not arrogant enough that he could be sure that he would be able to survive under the hands of the fifth order.
And he can be so indifferent, not because he has the confidence to live.
It's all because he thinks that fear affects judgment.
So I never let it interfere with my own judgment.
Ji Xun deduced all the plans and came to the conclusion that with the existing conditions, the probability of their survival is less than 5%.
He muttered to himself, "What else is missing? β
was frowning and thinking for a moment, when "Goron" who was following on the side suddenly spoke.
He didn't know why two people he didn't know would save him, but it was a fact that he was saved, and he said sincerely: "Thank you for saving my life."
The previous conversation between the two was patched by the will of space, and Goron didn't find it strange.
Saying this, both of them looked at this heroic young man who was still a little immature.
Ji Xun's rescue of Goron is not kind.
Instead, they had to follow this NPC to take it with them.
As soon as these words came out, Ji Xun's mind flashed.
Hey.
Thinking about it again at the beginning of entering the space, isn't this "Golon" the most reliable anchor point for him to trigger the survival of the difficult plot?
Now there is no one else.
Time was pressing, and after a few polite words, Ji Xun asked directly: "Goron, do you know Master Gamil?" β
He hadn't forgotten that staying alive was only one of his goals.
Another necessary condition is to find the key to the "slave collar".
This kind of future hero may know some information.
Hearing Ji Xun ask, Alice also cast an expectant gaze.
She and Alan had finally heard the name before, but now they were both dying, and they didn't have a clue at all.
I was anxious too.
Looking at the burning eyes of the two, the young man was also a little unconfident, and asked rhetorically: "Ah, are you talking about Grandpa Gamil?" β
As soon as they heard this, Ji Xun and Alice were overjoyed: There is a play!
Ji Xun was also afraid of the same name, so he directly stated the purpose: "I have a friend who is locked by a very high-level slave collar and can't get out, and wants to find Master Gamil to crack it"
"Oh. Grandpa Gamil is really good at cracking collars. β
Goron gave the two of them an expectant response, and added, "However, he is not in Valen City now, but in the 'Rune Heights' to study ancient spells. If we make it out alive, I can take you to him. But "
As he spoke, he looked at Ji Xun and the others, and there was no fear of death in his eyes, only regret.
But when Ji Xun heard this, he showed a satisfied expression!
Enough is enough!
This sentence means a lot to the two of them!
It's not just that I know the exact location of the Master Gamil.
Even if the follow-up main plot doesn't let them come into contact,
It also gives them hope.
Because there is a hidden condition for the extradimensional space gacha.
Anything that has been touched in space, martial arts, demon marks, materials, intelligence. And so on, it may appear in the card pool.
The premise is that it has to be actually reached!
And if you trigger the relevant plot in depth, the probability of settling the gacha will be greater.
Listening to this tone, Goron and Master Gamil are very familiar, and they have reached the level of connecting the plot.
In other words, from this moment on, Ji Xun was sure that the [Key] would appear in the settlement card pool!
Alice couldn't hide her joy either.
She didn't expect that the key, which had always been clueless, would appear in front of her so accidentally.
But before she had time to think about it, she suddenly froze, as if she had found something, and warned: "Someone is chasing after her!" β
Ji Xun also knew that Alice's perceptual means were stronger than his own, so he didn't dare to be careless.
As soon as the words fell, Alice's expression changed: "Not good! My spell has been discovered! The other party may be a fifth-order! β
β.β
Ji Xun's eyes lit up.
I didn't think they were unlucky.
On the contrary, I feel that this kind of encounter is the will of space that corrects the difficulty of the plot to the "S-level".
It means that the next battle is to the death.
But now that he wants to fight, Ji Xun can't see the chance of winning.
He didn't forget that the toad had reminded him before.
Its ancestors were able to survive the battle in Valen City because they had a special life-saving relic in their hands.
He hadn't had a chance to ask before, but now, he asked straight to the point, "Goron, do you have any special relics on you?" β
"Relic? How could I have such a treasure?"
Goron's expression was slightly embarrassed.
As a gladiatorial slave, the most valuable thing on his body, in addition to pants and cloth shoes, is the sword in his hand.
Ji Xun said unexpectedly: "No? β
"Oh, yes!"
Suddenly, he thought of something and took off a cloth bag that was slung to his back.
In the face of the two life-saving benefactors, he didn't hide it, and said, "When Grandpa Gamil left before, he gave me a cloak. He said I wouldn't wear it until I became a hero."
Ji Xun and Alice looked at each other.
In the cloth bag, there was a gray coarse cloth cloak.
This is the case with the extraordinary objects of this world, but if your perception cannot peek into its peculiarities, it will be as ordinary as a stone on the side of the road.
In front of me was a coarse cloth cloak that didn't look anything special.
The material is completely ordinary linen, and there is no trace of transcendent characteristics spilled over.
Alice looked instantly disappointed.
In her eyes, no matter how you look at it, there is nothing special about this cloak.
It's just ordinary people's clothes.
Goron also touched the back of his head, as if he felt a little embarrassed to hold such a broken cloak as a treasure, and muttered: "Grandpa Gamil said this is a treasure, let me keep it well"
However, Ji Xun looked at it, and his eyes lit up.
He knew, something, like catastrophic things.
It takes special conditions to recognize its extraordinary properties.
The cloak in front of me is.
It has to be a heroic personality to see its peculiarity.
