Cataclysm King - #27 - Chapter 27: Aberrant
Chapter 27 Deformers
“It’s strange, what went wrong. Could it be the extraordinary person with an enhanced sense of smell?”
Ji Xun ruled out all possibilities, and finally concluded that the most probable flaw was the smell.
He didn’t report any luck.
At this juncture, any carelessness on his part would be fatal.
For a while, his thoughts quickly analyzed.
The guy walked very lightly just now, probably a professional assassin.
This person went directly to the No. 16 carriage, the purpose is obvious: to block the road, to prevent someone from jumping off the train.
Ji Xun wasn’t surprised either, if he didn’t have this level, the trackers wouldn’t be able to find him.
But at the same time, it also explained one point: the enemy did not lock the target on himself, but only locked the approximate range of the car.
In the intelligence of the other party, there must be a certain message that the target task is a card master apprentice, that is to say, it can be solved by a magic card master normally.
If you have confirmed that you are the person you are looking for, you should do it after the face-to-face meeting just now.
If you didn’t do anything, you must be not sure who you are looking for.
This also gave Ji Xun time to react.
But leave the gaming table now, and you will be discovered immediately.
Since there are people blocking the road in carriage 16, there must also be carriage 14.
The situation suddenly became critical.
But even knowing that he was discovered, Ji Xun didn’t panic, and continued to bet and play cards with his expression still.
Because he wasn’t doing nothing the last few hours.
While he was playing cards, he also quietly hung the ring of the shock bomb hidden under the table on the gas pipe with a wire.
This small mechanism does not hurt people, but it will make a lot of noise.
This will buy him a little time in the event of a riot.
And he has been observing the No. 14 compartment from the corner of his eye.
Everyone who enters the No. 15 carriage is almost likely to be an enemy.
Didn’t see the guy in the hood before, it seems that the enemy is cautious enough.
Soon, Ji Xun locked a woman in a leather jacket.
There are very few people running around in the rear compartment, and even if there are, they are all familiar faces in the next compartment.
And in the past few hours, Ji Xun has completely remembered the people in every seat.
So as soon as this woman appeared, he immediately realized that this person was not from the nearby compartment!
Ji Xun didn’t know what ability this woman had, but she walked in and instinctively glanced at the group of people playing cards.
This also made Ji Xun more sure that he was exposed.
He didn’t give the opponent a chance to attack in close quarters.
Now that it is certain that it has been discovered, there is no point in pretending any longer, as it will be found sooner or later.
“Only jumping”
Ji Xun immediately got up and squeezed out of the crowd of gamblers, thinking about the plan that he had rehearsed many times in his mind.
As expected, it was Ji Xun’s leaving action that immediately caught the attention of the brunette woman.
She didn’t look at the group of gamblers anymore, but directly gestured to the accomplice in carriage 16.
Ji Xun also buried his head and walked forward, pretending to be in a hurry to go to the toilet.
I am not afraid of being discovered.
Because he was still sure that the order the other party received was probably to keep alive, and the shot would definitely not be fatal.
The train was still running at a constant speed, bumping into something from time to time, and the outer armor made abnormal noises.
You can’t see anything outside, it’s like being in an underground tunnel, it’s pitch black, and just looking at it makes people instinctively refuse to jump down.
Jumping is the worst option.
Given a choice, he would try something else first.
However, the enemy is obviously smarter than he expected, and he doesn’t seem to want to give him a chance to jump off the car.
Just a few steps away from his seat, Ji Xun suddenly felt mentally in a trance.
It seems to be a little sleepy due to lack of oxygen. In this compartment, it was a normal reaction.
But Ji Xun immediately realized what it was: “Spiritual spell card master?”
Enlightenment Appears: “Spirit Corrosion Immunity”
He had been in contact with the fallen witch for so long before, and he was already familiar with the feeling of spiritual pollution.
That is to say, someone used a spiritual spell on his back.
Because of my super high spiritual power, I was a little aware of some abnormalities, otherwise I was afraid that I would be tricked unconsciously.
“If you continue like this, I’m afraid you won’t be able to get to the predetermined location.”
From the corner of his eye, Ji Xun caught a glimpse of the assassin who was hiding in the crowd at the door of the carriage ahead, and secretly said that something was wrong, and this guy also faintly showed signs of encircling him and coming to attack.
But if you rashly launch the jumping plan at this position, the risk of being caught will be much greater.
For a while, thoughts flew.
Took another two steps, at this moment, Ji Xun suddenly caught a glimpse of the guy at seat 11 in carriage 16: “Huh?”
This is the hunter he suspected of “out of control” before!
If this guy is really the ruthless guy that hunters talk about, maybe he can.
“Sure enough, we have to use plan B.”
Another plan flashed through Ji Xun’s mind.
Not as far away as intended, but this guy is closer.
Guessed wrong and was caught on the spot.
Guessed right, things are much easier!
With one thought in his mind, Ji Xun directly crossed the toilet, walked to the side of Block 11 and stopped.
But it was his stopping action that immediately attracted the brunette staring at him and the assassin to be alert at the same time, and stopped at the same time.
And not just these two.
Ji Xun was keenly aware that just as he stopped, the magic power on the middle-aged man who pretended to be asleep seemed to be uncontrollable, and suddenly overflowed uncontrollably for a moment.
This guy is also pretending to be asleep!
There is a high probability that the guess is correct.
Thinking of this, under the attention of several pairs of eyes, Ji Xun quietly tapped twice on the table with his hands, as if sending some secret signal.
Although the action was done in a covert manner, everyone who should have seen it had seen it.
It was this little action that changed the expressions of several people.
Password?
is definitely a code word!
This action is very misleading.
The guy who pretended to be asleep was already suspicious, so he must suspect that the tapping was another signal.
The other members of the Blackwater Mercenary Group who came after him would also think that Ji Xun was sending a signal to his companions.
But even if the two parties found out, they were worried at the first time, thinking what if they guessed wrong?
Ji Xun caught the momentary hesitation of several people, and after striking, he pulled out the revolver at his waist like lightning.
He didn’t aim at anyone, but shot at the gas pipe that he had observed a long time ago with a “bang”.
“Advanced Firearms Specialization” allows him to accurately hit the target.
The lighting in the carriages is all gas lamps. This shot happened to be at a critical point, and the fire flashed for a moment, and then the 15th and 16th carriages immediately fell into darkness.
“what happened?”
“Who the **** shot that!”
“.”
No force is allowed on the train, this is the rule set by the Hunter Union.
There is no law in Innocence City, and the Hunter Union is one of the most authoritative organizations.
Whoever disobeys the rules and causes bad consequences will be sent to the execution platform if caught.
This is also the reason why several members of the Blackwater Mercenary Group wanted to do it before, but they were most worried.
But Ji Xun didn’t know, and wasn’t prepared to obey!
Hearing the gunshot, the hunters who didn’t know why started to make a fuss. However, at the moment of booing, several gamblers got up together, and there were two explosions in succession, and the shock bomb installed before was also triggered.
The airtight compartment was like an iron can, and the air waves swept by the two blasts made the people in the last few compartments seem to have been saped, cursing again and again.
Detonation bombs are not fatal to ordinary people, let alone these extraordinary hunters.
But there is a strong interference with sensory organs and nervous system.
Now, don’t even try to lock the various perception methods.
And the chain reaction caused by this gunshot is not over yet!
Several members of the Blackwater Mercenary Group saw that something was wrong, and immediately rushed towards Ji Xun’s position.
Didn’t they guess that the target person wanted to take advantage of the chaos and escape?
For ordinary people, the darkness may really blind the visual senses.
But for official spell card masters, not necessarily!
Especially for professional assassins like ghosts, dark vision is one of their compulsory specialized skills!
Want to escape?
snort,
Innocent!
The assassin named Xiaowu laughed contemptuously when he saw Ji Xun blowing up the gas pipe.
Even if it is a detonation bomb, it will not cause much interference to his locking target.
He rushed forward immediately, trying to catch that guy.
However, a strange scene happened.
Xiao Wu missed it!
The black shadow that was clearly locked in the vision disappeared out of thin air in the perception!
In the carriage, there was only darkness.
people?
Xiao Wu’s expression changed suddenly, and only then did he realize that he had underestimated that card master apprentice.
However, before he could figure out what happened, a big hand in seat 11 grabbed his arm like lightning. The huge force, like iron pincers, seemed to crush his bones.
Severe pain hit, and Xiao Wu’s facial features were distorted in an instant.
what happened!
No,
That guy really has other accomplices!
PS. Ask for tickets, ask for everything, the new issue is very important~
