Cataclysm King - #113 - Chapter 113: unrest in the camp
Chapter 113 Turmoil in the camp
Ji Xun stayed in the different-dimensional space for more than ten days, completely unaware that there had been a riot in the ruins camp outside.
The tavern in the ruins camp is full of hunters today.
The new hunter didn’t know what happened, so he asked for news in the tavern.
The hunters who stayed for a few days were angrily talking about the evil deeds of that young master Kahn.
“Hey, the guards of the Lionheart family have been killing like crazy these days. Did you see the corpses hanging on the small building opposite? They are all ‘suspects’. It is said that the hunters and intelligence merchants who had contacted that space before were all arrested Tortured and tortured, none of them survived.”
“There are so many suspects?”
“Suspects? Hehehe, you listened to those nobles talking nonsense. See the dozens of corpses next to them? This is Lao Luo and his members of the gunfire regiment. They were labeled as ‘suspects’, killed and hanged up. “
“Ah? I know the gunfire group, and the head of the group, Lao Luo, is also good. How did they get involved in the assassination?”
“It’s nothing to do with the assassination. Last night, a female team doctor in Lao Luo’s team disappeared in the camp. Someone saw that Master Kahn sent someone to take her away. Then that’s it. Why do you say? Heh, Things like this have happened a lot since the young man came to the camp.”
“People from the Hunter’s Guild don’t come forward to take care of this?”
“Who cares? The Golden Knights of the Beast Legion are here. Whoever dares to show up now will be labeled as a ‘suspect’. If you catch him, you will die. What’s more, I heard that the current City of Innocence is about to announce an amnesty. Those high-level members of the Hunter’s Guild are all busy trying to find an official position for themselves, how dare they offend such a nobleman? Last night, the first thing Lao Luo looked for was the Hunter’s Guild.”
“Hanging so many corpses, they want to declare that the nobles hold the power of life and death for our hunters.”
“Hehe, that young master really didn’t treat us as human beings.”
“The nobles don’t have a **** good thing. If I have the ability, I will kill that bastard!”
“Shh~ Don’t talk nonsense. Be careful not to be overheard, and be arrested as the assassin’s accomplice.”
“.”
In the tavern, the hunters looked at the corpses hanging on the small building in the distance, and each of them spoke with righteous indignation.
But it’s completely helpless.
The Golden Knights of the Beast Legion guarded the young man, absolutely suppressed by force, no one dared to stand out.
In the corner of the tavern, there were still three guests sitting at a table.
If Ji Xun was here, he would be able to recognize these three people as Xie Guozhong from the “Federal Bureau X” who had met once.
Not long after they arrived at the camp, the three of them also chose to come to the tavern to inquire about the news.
Originally, they came to track down the people from the Silver Moon Sect. They didn’t expect to find them, but they heard the news instead.
Xie Guozhong looked like a slovenly cowboy as always, he seemed to be used to it, and he drank heavily.
Beside him, the two young assistants had unsightly expressions.
The hunters in the tavern scolded that young master Kahn, and scolded them, the law enforcement officers, by the way.
The words “noble dog” and “accomplice” made the faces of the two young assistants turn green and black.
Jia Yu, the mushroom head, paused for a moment, finally couldn’t hold back, and muttered: “Although most of the innocent city are exiles. But in terms of facts, their crimes have already been punished when they were sentenced to exile. Now Kahn has not been convicted. Just torturing and killing suspects is already illegal. And those girls. If it is true, even if they are the sons of the Lionheart family, this crime is enough to be sent to the gallows.”
Xie Guozhong heard the gleam in his eyes, as if thinking of something, he smiled and shook his head slightly.
He took another sip of wine, but didn’t speak.
Awen on the side thought about it but said: “According to the federal law, noble private soldiers do have the right to enforce the law. Since the people of the Lionheart family say they are looking for people who conspired to attack the nobles, as long as they insist that those people are suspected, even if they go to the federation The Supreme Court, no one can do anything.”
Mushroom head argued: “But… the fact is that he really killed someone! If the nobles are above the law, what is the difference between the new federal law and the dark old era? If the law cannot represent absolute justice, then the meaning Where?”
“.”
Awen was speechless even after listening.
The corpse outside is so dazzling that anyone who looks at it can judge right from wrong.
What’s more, they have heard about Mr. Kahn’s reputation in Dragon City for a long time.
Xie Guozhong listened to the argument of the two assistants, pondered for a moment, then shrugged and smiled: “So, what do you think should be done?”
Mushroom head said seriously: “I think the truth should be investigated. If the truth is so, it should be convicted and arrested according to the law. Otherwise, it will lead to more innocent people.”
Awen shook her head as she listened, with a hint of helplessness towards the innocence of her teammate in her tone, “Arrest the young master of the Lionheart family? Don’t say that they ignore us. I can guarantee that even if he is really sent He will be released on bail as soon as possible. The laws of the Federation are in favor of the nobles. If we really want to come forward, not to mention that we can’t solve the problem, it will cause a lot of trouble for the bureau.”
Mushroom argued: “We are the most authoritative law enforcement officers of the Federation. We should abide by justice and justice. How can we change our position just because of misfortune? We can’t say that he is a nobleman, so we just turn a blind eye. The new federal law clearly stipulates that nobles and civilians are Equality before the law. Breaking the law is breaking the law!”
“you.”
Awen wanted to say something more, but her expression turned difficult, so she stopped talking.
I thought that my teammate was really a nerd who just came out of the academy.
The two did not argue for a result, but they did not expect that Xie Guozhong laughed when he heard it, and admitted: “Jia Yu, you are right.”
Mushroom Head glanced in surprise and was greatly encouraged, “Captain.”
Awen also cast a curious look.
Xie Guozhong said: “When I was young, I thought and did the same as you.”
As he spoke, he didn’t know what he thought of, and his expression became very subtle, half a smile but not a smile.
Mushroom Head hurriedly asked: “What happened next?”
They thought they would hear some interesting stories, but they didn’t expect Xie Guozhong to raise his brows, as if telling a cold joke, and said: “Later…later is now. You should all know Bureau Liu of the 8th Bureau, right? Federal Court The vice-presiding judge, Jayne, also knows? Back then, they were my assistants just like you. Now one of them is the director and the other is the presiding judge. And I am still the captain.”
The tone is very free and easy, and I don’t feel any pity at all.
Mushroom head:”.”
Awen: “.”
The two assistants rolled their eyes together.
Xie Guozhong continued: “In the past, I was as cynical as you and I was indignant at all the injustices in the world. When I graduated from the Federal College, I had a dream, that is to become a justice in the future and dedicate my life to justice and order. It turned out that. There is no direct relationship between the two, and there is even a conflict. I insist on the latter. So I can only be the team leader for half my life.”
The two young assistants also understood that this seemed to be about the sophistication of the world within the system.
Awen also understood, and said: “The captain is just too upright.”
Mushroom head was full of eyes, and said: “Even if I have been a small player all my life, I will still feel that right is right and wrong is wrong!”
Xie Guozhong smiled slightly when he heard it, and didn’t think his statement was wrong, but nodded with some approval: “Yes.”
He turned and said meaningfully: “But later, I realized that even if I become a justice, I can’t change anything.”
The two assistants looked over suspiciously.
Xie Guozhong’s eyes flashed brightly, and he didn’t say any more stories, but said something on the extraordinary level, saying: “Later, I found out that this is part of the order of the world. Just like light and darkness, where there is light, there is darkness. Where there is order, there must be disorder. Opposite and indivisible. This is the basic rule of the universe.”
As he said that, he looked at the two assistants and said, “I can’t give you the answer to the previous question. No one can give you the answer. Stick to your heart and go on. When you stand on a higher ground, maybe you can find the answer for yourself. “
“oh.”
The two assistants were lost in thought.
“Forget it back then. Let’s report the things on the Lionheart family side truthfully. The law enforcement power we have is not enough for us to change anything.”
Xie Guozhong smiled, and didn’t intend to continue, “Unless we kill that young man on the spot”
The two assistants’ eyelids twitched when they heard this.
This is an “outlaw fanatic”, killing high-ranking nobles on the spot, can this be said?
Xie Guozhong didn’t say much on this topic, and instead said: “This time our mission is to chase down those guys from the Silver Moon Sect. Judging from the current development situation, the danger in the period of history hidden in the ‘Great Cataclysm’ , far exceeded the estimates of the high-level federal estimates. Now that old miracles have been discovered one after another in the Old Continent, the threat of belief pollution may be more serious than expected. Really want those old believers to awaken the will of the gods, That is a catastrophe at the level of the destruction of civilization.”
When it came to business, the three of them didn’t continue to chat about Mr. Kahn.
The Old Ones are the greater threat.
The three chatted about something else.
Mushroom Head suddenly said again: “But having said that, why do I think the suspect wanted by the Lionheart Family may be the one we have seen? Isn’t that relic scalpel the weapon of “Plague Doctor” Hesse? It was the captain who lost the bet to that person.”
Awen: “It should be given to someone else, right? That guy is just a card master apprentice. Even if he is advanced, he won’t be a threat to Mr. Kahn, right?”
Xie Guozhong: “It may not be the same person. There are not many sources of high-quality werewolf material. Before the black wolf mercenary group also wanted a few people before. The time and place are right.”
Just when there was an uproar in the camp about what the hunters did to the Lionheart family.
In that heavily guarded small building.
In the luxurious room, Young Master Kahn looked at the naked girl who had lost her breath, and the evil fire in his eyes remained: “Come here, hang up these two corpses too!”
The old butler in a black tuxedo walked into the room.
He didn’t go to look at the corpse much, he beckoned, and the servant behind him took out the body bag familiarly, and packed it up.
After the servants left, the steward said, “Young master, the steward of the hunter union came here before and said that the hunters in the camp were making a lot of noise, and asked us if we could take away the corpses hanging outside, otherwise it might cause trouble. Unnecessary trouble.”
“Put it away? Hehe. I will show those who are trying to murder me. I will do what I say! My Lionheart family will take revenge!”
Kahn sneered and said disapprovingly.
The old butler seemed to be very aware of his young master’s temper, and he didn’t dare to provoke him, instead he said: “Madam heard about the incident here, and there is also an urgent message to ask you to return to Innocence City as soon as possible. Madam explained, young master You don’t have to worry about anything else, everything has been arranged at home.”
“go back?”
Kahn stared at the old housekeeper coldly, furious: “If I don’t grab that guy, get his skin cramped, and kill all his family and friends, I won’t be able to get over it!”
As he spoke, he asked coldly, “Have you found out what that guy is from?”
“Not yet.”
The old butler knew that his young master would be angered if he said this, so he hurriedly said, “But the family legion and mercenaries have blocked the exit of the space. As long as that person comes out alive, he will definitely not be able to escape.”
If not, Kahn became angry when he heard it: “A bunch of trash! Didn’t you say that the trial was foolproof before? Then explain to me, what happened to the assassin? If it wasn’t for the teleportation card my mother gave me, Mr. Ben You died in the space long ago! It’s been so long now, and you didn’t find anything?”
Old housekeeper: “This old slave has neglected his duties.”
Coincidentally, at this moment, a servant hurried over: “Master, there was news from the ruins just now, and that person appeared!”
Karn immediately came to the spirit: “Let’s go!”
Before, there were low-level guards in the ruins, which made him almost die.
Now outside, the Golden Knights of the Beast Legion are all there, so he wants to see what that guy is from!
In a mountain depression more than ten kilometers northeast of the camp.
At the entrance of the distorted light gate in the original space of “The Third Holy Grail War: Outpost War”, a large number of elite beast legions have gathered here.
Various prohibition barriers have been arranged for a thousand kilometers around the exit.
Not to mention that the assassin is a Tier 1 spell card master.
With this posture, even the top card masters can’t escape with their wings.
Not only the exit, but even the periphery a few kilometers away, there are also a large number of mercenary masters stationed.
This place has long been encircled by three layers inside and three layers outside.
The private soldiers of the Lionheart family have no complaints. The military discipline is strict, and the shifts are changed throughout the whole process to strictly guard against death. They will never dare to have any accidents.
The mercenaries were bored waiting.
He was a second-rate mercenary who used money to do things, not to mention a high quality.
On the hillside one kilometer northwest of the Twisted Light Gate, a group of mercenaries from the War Bear Mercenary Corps were bragging.
“Leader, it’s been more than ten days and you still haven’t come out, what’s going on?”
“It doesn’t matter when he comes out. Let’s take it if we have the money. Don’t be so serious, you should eat and sleep. We probably don’t need to do it. The golden knights of the Beast Legion are guarding the exit. That guy just has wings. They can’t even fly.”
“Will the space collapse, and that person will fall into the defense zone of our mercenary group?”
“What are you thinking? This is the war mode! Who the **** can play S to pass the level at one time, and still have one person? I see, maybe the assassin has died in it. I haven’t recognized it yet, maybe the one alive is the beast army. People. After all, I heard that three hundred elites went in last time.”
“But what if?”
“What’s in case”
However, it was just after the words fell.
A prophecy.
There was sudden turbulence near the distant exit, and someone shouted violently: “No! The space collapsed!”
This voice made all the mercenaries present look pale, and their faces were in disbelief: Someone really cleared the level once?
Yet shock is shock,
The fact is that at the entrance of the brightly lit space in the distance, the distorted light gate really collapsed.
The surrounding team reacted immediately.
“Everyone pay attention to stealth units! Report immediately if found!”
“.”
In the distance, the elites of the Beast Legion moved instantly.
The encirclement that was thought to be foolproof, at this moment, because the space suddenly collapsed, disrupted the original arrangement.
Before the Zhanxiong mercenary group on the hill could figure out what happened, the perception card master of the Beast Legion in the distance suddenly discovered something, and shouted loudly: “At the nine o’clock direction!”
Nine o’clock?
Isn’t it our side?
The expressions of these mercenaries changed drastically.
The leader of the second rank also suddenly came back to his senses, and shouted: “Developer powder!”
It’s fine if you don’t come, if you really want to let the assassin go in your own defense zone, no one can afford the terrible consequences.
Almost immediately, hundreds of mercenaries on the hill took out their cards and activated them.
“Boom” “Boom” “Boom” exploded.
The sky is full of white powder.
”Developing Powder” is the most direct means of targeting stealth targets.
These tiny particles, like silver powder, stick to almost any substance, making stealth targets invisible.
Almost at the moment when the developer powder exploded, they watched a transparent figure appear.
A mercenary yelled, “Over there!”
But before the mercenaries could react, the figure rushed out towards the periphery.
Ji Xun felt that he was lucky.
When it came out, it was quite far away from the distorted light gate that collapsed.
Glancing at the brightly lit encirclement, he sneered.
The situation is almost as expected.
Because the time of coming out was not determined, these guys were caught off guard.
The most important thing is that the space collapsed, and the landing position was random, which also exceeded those people’s expectations.
Even if it is developer powder, it is expected.
The direct lineage of the Lionheart family is indeed a great threat, but this is the Old Continent.
Three hundred people died in the space before, and it would be good if there are a few hundred left outside.
Also scored a part to protect the young master Kahn with heavy troops.
With the few people left, this wilderness can’t cover much of a place.
Ji Xun guessed that there might be a large number of mercenaries participating in the defense.
Looking at it now, it really is.
Don’t look at the large number of mercenaries.
In Ji Xun’s eyes, a few hundred mercenaries are not as threatening as a five-member team of beasts in the previous space.
It is impossible for these mercenaries to be compared with noble private soldiers, no matter whether they have demon marks, skills or equipment.
Even if the head of the brawny man with the one-eyed bear badge on his chest is a Tier 2 card master, Ji Xun didn’t take it seriously at all.
Ji Xun didn’t give these guys any time to react.
As soon as the feet hit the ground, the muscles in the legs tensed instantly, and there was a slight “pop” sound, and the whole person was ejected towards the dark place outside the encirclement.
The speed of the werewolf body was so fast that he had already jumped a hundred meters almost as soon as the mercenaries shouted out.
Now [Advanced Movement Specialization] plus super high agility, running like a gust of wind.
The group of mercenaries behind them just wanted to chase after them, but they were all stunned when they saw the outrageous speed.
This gap can be seen at a glance from the start, and they can’t catch up at all.
Immediately there was gunfire on the hillside.
While running, Ji Xun glanced behind him from the corner of his eye.
He didn’t care about the dense bullets at all.
In his current werewolf body, ordinary bullets are basically no threat.
Even those special magic-breaking bullets hit the body with skin trauma embedded in the muscles.
Large quantities can be fatal.
But for a mercenary who takes money to do things, he doesn’t think he can beat special bullets worth tens of thousands of rounds without money.
And with such a fast displacement speed, it is impossible for a top gunner to hit it.
Ji Xun rushed all the way.
Before the mercenaries set up a blocking formation, they had already rushed several hundred meters.
He also deliberately chose those places where people were standing.
You don’t need to guess, there must be traps and mines in the vicinity.
Ji Xun didn’t know where the trap was, but these mercenaries definitely knew.
Where someone is standing, it must not be a trap area.
He just rushed all the way.
The mercenaries are as fragile as paper, even in groups of three or four, they can’t stop them at all.
But even with such care, Ji Xun still accidentally stepped on the trap.
Just as he ran down the hill, his feet suddenly loosened, as if he had stepped into the soft mud of a swamp.
Ji Xun’s whole body became unstable, and he was about to sink.
If you really want to fall into this trap, the elite of the beast army behind you will surely catch up.
However, before the mercenaries in the distance could be happy, they suddenly heard the sound of “pop”, “pop”, and “pop” in the air.
They watched the tall werewolf body walk on the swamp trap as if walking on the ground, stepping on the ripples of the air, and rushing all the way.
After using it, Ji Xun also thought to himself that this [Floating Kick] is really a wonderful technique.
There are only a few ways to limit the card masters of the agility department.
With the ability to step into the air for a short time, quicksand, swamps, and sticky traps are hardly a real threat.
This solved a huge hidden danger for him.
Although a few landmines were detonated along the way.
But all because the speed is too fast.
By triggering the gap between the mechanical device, he had already jumped a long way, and the damage caused by the explosion was very limited.
As long as you break through the first line of defense, the threat from behind will become smaller and smaller.
If they can’t catch up, no matter how strong the beast army is and how many people there are, it’s meaningless.
Ji Xun did not get entangled with those mercenaries.
What he was worried about from the beginning to the end was only the second-level and above assassin card masters behind him.
The agility attribute of his animal transformation is already stronger than that of ordinary second-level all-aware assassins.
If you want to steadily catch up with him, only an assassin card master above Tier 3 can do it.
Ji Xun has no doubts.
That young master Kahn must have such a master by his side.
So he bolted all the way.
After escaping from the area covered by developer powder, he quickly changed some of his clothes, left some traps behind, and then made some anti-tracking methods.
Not far behind him, there were explosions from time to time.
He knew that those masters were coming after him.
On the other side, when Mr. Kahn heard that the assassin had appeared, he left the camp with a large number of guards and rushed over.
Seeing the movement of the Lionheart Legion so loudly, the melon-eaters in the camp also rushed out to follow.
They were also very curious about the origin of the assassin who dared to assassinate the young master of the Lionheart family.
Not long after everyone left the camp, the news of the disappearance of the “Holy Grail War” alien space came.
As soon as this breaking news came out, the entire camp was boiling.
I thought it was just an assassination, but I didn’t expect that the assassin directly cleared the war mode with a super high death rate!
Everyone knows that there is a good show to watch.
Now, almost everyone in the camp followed.
Being curious is one thing.
What if you encounter a dead mouse?
Everyone knows what the disappearance of the different-dimensional space means.
What’s more, looking at the posture, the “Assassin” side also came prepared.
If we really want to fight, maybe we can catch a big leak.
However, no one expected it.
Among the melon-eating crowd, a young man with his eyes covered in black cloth mixed in.
Watching Young Master Kahn finally walk out of the restricted building and leave the camp.
The real assassin who had been waiting for several days had a smile on his lips.
