Cataclysm King - #335 - Chapter 335 [Three-Headed Fall of Echimera]
Chapter 335 [Three-Headed Fallen Chimera]
There were two big swords carried on Ji Xun’s back.
One is the [Useless Great Sword], and the other is the holy sword of royal power [Holy Sword of Olympus].
What shook just now was the holy sword of royal power.
This great sword is the “sword of the regicide” that royal rulers talk about with disdain.
The former Talon royal family did not dare to let it live among the people because it would threaten the rule of the Augustus family.
But Chujiu had no such worries at all.
Now there are three major royal families in the southern continent, and there is also a new king of Oran in the eastern continent, but they are all enemies.
No matter which king this royal sword threatens, it is a good thing.
Chujiu couldn’t use the holy sword himself, so he had given it to Ji Xun before and asked him to bring it back to Jia Yu, the leader of the organization.
I originally wanted to use this sword to deal with the current chaos.
Unexpectedly, it seemed to be different from what was expected.
The moment Xie Guozhong’s scarlet and corrupt aura was exposed just now, the Holy Sword of Royal Power actually reacted.
Of course, this news was not hidden from Jia Yu who was beside him. He glanced at the sword covered with coarse cloth on Ji Xun’s back and showed a thoughtful expression.
Ji Xun thought for a while, then directly expressed his guess: “Someone here may have triggered the Holy Sword of Royal Power.”
Not everyone can touch the sacred weapon of royal power.
Not only does it require royal destiny, but also certain unknown conditions need to be met.
Ji Xun felt that the strange movement of the sword was definitely not because of him.
He has no interest in royal power and has been studying it in his hands for the past few days.
No matter how he tried, it was just a rusty iron sword in his hand.
What’s more, Ji Xun practices the inheritance of the Gong Wu Qigong master line, and pays more attention to his own practice.
A handy weapon is the icing on the cake, not a necessity.
But there are only five people in the lab.
The target for guessing is small.
Master Merlin is a strange old man who is devoted to studying black technology.
Forget about rights, he was not interested in anything other than research.
Not even when you think about it.
Just as he was thinking about it, the mushroom-headed Jia Yu beside him also smiled and shook his head, saying: “Don’t look at me, it must not be me. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been burned by the Holy Grail before.”
Ji Xun also thinks it makes sense.
During the “Battle of Ironforge”, Mushroom Head was burned in order to test the Holy Grail, so he probably did not have the destiny to be king.
Moreover, the Illuminati Priory has always been a mysterious organization hidden in the shadows of history. As the leader, he is obviously not interested in being a king in public.
Looking at the expressions of the two people, Irene on the side also knew what they were talking about. She blinked and smiled jokingly: “Hey, sister, is it possible that I still have the destiny to be a king?”
Ji Xun also knew that the chief intelligence officer of the Illuminati was joking and just talking.
The three of them looked at Xie Guozhong in the jar.
Jia Yu had already determined something and said: “The captain is the path to [Order], has justice in his heart, and has a very deep understanding of the laws of order. If possible, he is indeed a very good leader of order.”
As a team member who had been together day and night, Mushroom Head certainly understood.
Ji Xun listened and said, “Yes.”
He also has a very good relationship with Xie Guozhong, and of course he knows the character of this cheerful man.
If it weren’t for his stubbornness in upholding justice, he wouldn’t have been in Bureau X for so long and still be a front-line agent.
There is another piece of evidence.
Xie Guozhong and Old Man Xu have known each other for many years and are still living well.
In other words, his destiny is definitely not simple.
Thinking again, the [Pope] sequence inherited by the Holy Holy See is the order + royal power line, and Ji Xun’s thoughts suddenly became active.
Thinking about it this way, Lao Xie is really suitable for holding power.
His personality is not suitable for the intrigues of the middle management.
So either you are at the bottom or you are at the top.
This holy sword of royal power most likely reacted because of Xie Guozhong.
But the timing is very delicate.
Just when the Scarlet Corruption broke out.
Jia Yu also noticed this and said to himself: “It may not be caused by the royal destiny.”
As he spoke, he tried to deduce something: “However, I have guessed some of the functions of this [Holy Sword of Olympus].”
Ji Xun cast a curious look: “Oh?”
This holy sword of royal power has not been seen in the world for tens of thousands of years since it was hidden in the North Talon royal family.
There are only legends about this sacred weapon among the people.
And no one is sure what’s so special about it.
Jia Yu said: “Since this holy sword of royal power has the appearance of ‘having the effect of regicide against royal rulers’, the essence may be that the holy sword should react to certain high-status things. The horoscope of royal power can be said to be It comes with a ‘demigod’ destiny. It may be that the captain reacts because he has a royal destiny. But now the captain and Scarlet Corruption have a symbiotic relationship, and their destiny is already entangled. It may also be a reaction to pollution. But no matter where it is, One way or another, it’s all good news.”
As he spoke, he paused and expressed his conclusion: “Emperor Lanlingst ended the Era of Chaos. The four sacred weapons of royal power he held must have the sacred properties of suppressing evil and chaos.”
“.”
When Ji Xun heard this, he already understood.
If this holy sword really reacts to Xie Guozhong, it is definitely not to allow foreign gods to plunder. The sacred characteristics in the sword can even suppress distortion.
At the same time, Ji Xun also sighed, this mushroom head’s realm was indeed much higher than his own.
The same information, but this guy saw further.
Guess what, try it and you’ll find out.
After being injected with the inhibitor, Xie Guozhong, who was soaking in the culture tank, also opened his eyes.
The scarlet blood was drawn away, and he walked out.
Seeing Master Meilin, Xie Guozhong also knew that he had brought trouble, and said slightly apologetically: “Master, I have caused trouble for you.”
He knew his situation well.
Now his memory has been fully restored and he remembers everything that happened before.
From the first time he discovered that the top management of Bureau X was contaminated, he had actually predicted that his outcome would definitely be bad.
Later, he was still willing to get involved with his own life, because he felt that only “Light Chaser” could solve this problem.
This is also true.
Jia Yu lived up to expectations and almost eliminated the Scarlet Sect in the battle of Shenxu Treasure House.
But the problem is that the source of pollution is parasitic in my body.
Xie Guozhong has always been very firm in his beliefs. If he wants to become a believer in an alien god and pollute other people, he would rather be killed as soon as possible.
He should have died a long time ago, but because of the efforts of Jia Yu and Master Mei Lin, he is alive today.
This also made Xie Guozhong blame himself for causing a lot of trouble to others.
And the trouble is far from resolved.
Just as he was thinking about it, Ji Xun and the other three walked over.
Ji Xun had not seen him since he delivered the jar in Innocence City. Ji Xun was very happy to see that his old friend was still alive and said hello: “Lao Xie, long time no see.”
Xie Guozhong looked at Ji Xun and showed his trademark rough smile: “Brother Ji Xun, long time no see.”
Ji Xun didn’t hesitate and took out the [Holy Sword of Olympus] directly.
Xie Guozhong’s expression was full of confusion: “This is it?”
After the previous battle in the Shenxu Treasure House, he had been soaked in the culture tank.
Later, in order to prevent him from being involved in the cause and effect of reality as much as possible, he was divined by some mysterious spells and cut off all contact with the outside world, including information on the Southern Continent.
Of course, I don’t know what this sword is.
Jia Yu explained: “This is the sacred weapon of royal power. This sword involves a lot. I will explain it to the captain later. But it seems that it can suppress the scarlet pollution that you coexist with.”
Although Xie Guozhong didn’t know the reason, he had his most trusted friends in front of him and had no doubts. He looked at the two of them and asked, “What should I do?”
Ji Xundao: “Try to see if you can pick it up first.”
He was well aware of the negative impact of the Royal Sacred Artifact on ordinary people, and reminded: “Be careful. If you find something wrong, throw it away immediately.”
Xie Guozhong nodded and reached out to the hilt of the rusty iron sword.
The other four pairs of eyes in the laboratory also stared at him.
It seemed like a long time had passed between Xie Guozhong reaching out his hand, until the moment he touched the hilt of the sword, the eyes of the four people shrank at the same time.
Because at this time, the rusty sword of [Holy Sword of Olympus] showed faint signs of light.
Both Ji Xun and Jia Yu saw signs of the Holy Grail appearing for the first time.
In the current situation, either Xie Guozhong will be backlashed by the holy sword, or he can pick it up.
Both of them were ready to deal with emergencies as soon as possible.
As soon as the thought flashed, the white light on the holy sword seeped out from under the rust, and suddenly became dazzling.
Xie Guozhong’s face also showed an extremely ferocious expression, as if he was suffering from huge pain.
Backlash?
Ji Xun knew the backlash power of the holy weapon of royal power all too well, at the moment he was about to snatch the holy sword away.
Jia Yu’s expression on the side showed a sharp look, as if he saw something, and stopped him: “Don’t move yet!”
During Ji Xun’s pause, he could clearly see why Xie Guozhong was in so much pain.
The holy light overflowing from the sword seemed to illuminate the soul in Xie Guozhong’s body, an original human form, and a hidden green-faced and fanged vampire.
It’s like light casting a shadow on an object.
The magical scene of one body and two souls was played out in front of a few people.
But gradually, as the holy light on the sword became brighter and brighter, the vampire form became weaker and weaker.
“Suppressed? This holy sword is so domineering.”
At this moment, Ji Xun completely understood.
He was not killed suddenly by the backlash on the spot, which means that Xie Guozhong was not backlashed by the holy sword.
Instead, it was because some mysterious power in the holy sword suppressed the scarlet corruption in his body that caused him such pain.
This is good news.
Jia Yu next to him seemed to have expected it, his eyes were sharp, and he said to himself: “Hey, is he really hiding and preparing for an attack?”
He had long known that potions could only suppress it temporarily.
Once it leaves the laboratory, the Scarlet Corruption will never be willing to coexist with humans and will definitely cause chaos.
I had originally prepared some other means, but I wasn’t sure.
Unexpectedly, this holy sword could force those hidden dangers out in advance.
Xie Guozhong clearly felt the condition of his body, and a powerful force was fighting for control of his body.
It’s like the feeling of critical distortion countless times in previous experiments.
That was a divine erosion that he could not suppress with his own strength.
Normally, inhibitor injections are needed at this time.
But at this moment, there was another more powerful divine power that instantly suppressed the distortion.
Xie Guozhong clearly felt that there was a force in the sword in his hand that was burning the restless scarlet corruption in his body.
It was this burning that gave him pain that was like burning fire.
There seems to be a voice in the symbiotic soul roaring hysterically: If I die, you must die too!
Xie Guozhong sneered in his heart.
He was never afraid of death.
His steely will made him have no intention of letting go. He roared like a beast in his throat and slowly raised the sword.
At this moment, the rust on the holy sword slowly fell off, revealing countless mysterious runes with dazzling golden light.
For the first time, this holy sword of royal power bloomed with its original divine qualities.
Ji Xun looked at his pupils and suddenly shrank, very familiar: “Shenwei?”
He actually felt a high-level pressure on a sword?
hiss.
This sword is quite powerful.
It seems to confirm what Jia Yu had guessed before, that this holy sword has special suppressive properties against high-level beings.
As soon as the divine power came out, it directly severely damaged the symbiotic scarlet will.
The confrontation between Holy Light and Scarlet gradually came to an end with Xie Guozhong’s roar.
The vampire shadow completely disintegrated.
At the same time, the evil ghost tattoos on his skin glowed red, and the violent blood that overflowed from his body was suppressed.
The magical and mysterious method “Heavenly King’s Curse Body” is designed to suppress all evil spirits.
At this moment, Xie Guozhong tamed the restless scarlet, and his aura became much higher visibly.
“Huh? Lao Xie has become so strong.”
Ji Xun narrowed his eyes slightly.
Only then did he realize that his old friend was much stronger than before.
Oh, that’s right!
Being a vampire is much stronger.
What’s more, Lao Xie’s situation is not an aberration, but a symbiosis with foreign gods.
Just like Ji Xun’s situation, as long as they are not contaminated, the divine substances in the jar can feed themselves back.
It is outrageous to think that a fifth-level card master can possess the divinity of an outer god.
The change came suddenly and went away quickly.
Xie Guozhong returned to normal.
Master Merlin also put away the green potions held in the evil god’s tentacles.
Everyone in the laboratory breathed a sigh of relief.
Xie Guozhong had never felt so good before. When he came back to his senses, he asked in surprise: “What’s going on with this sword? I felt like it just seemed like…”
He couldn’t describe the feeling of “divine power” and could only say: “It seems that the problem of scarlet corruption has been solved?”
Ji Xun and Jia Yu looked at each other.
There is so much to explain.
First of all, Xie Guozhong’s ability to be recognized by the Royal Sword has confirmed one of their previous conjectures.
In other words, he is a person with royal destiny.
Ji Xun also felt a little surprised. He didn’t expect that a person from a commoner class like Lao Xie would possess the royal destiny.
It’s not impossible, but the probability is indeed very low.
But it’s cumbersome to explain.
Jia Yu simply said: “It’s not a complete solution. It’s just that the Holy Sword severely damaged Scarlet Corruption’s hard-earned strength. As long as Captain, you carry the Holy Sword with you, there won’t be much of a problem in a short time. However, wait until He comes down. When you come out again, you must have the ability to deal with it.”
At least in the short term, there is no longer a threat.
This is good news.
Xie Guozhong didn’t dare to be careless, “Yeah.”
At this time, Ji Xun thought of something and interrupted with a reminder: “The power of the royal weapon will increase as the holder’s royal luck increases.”
Just like the new king Arthur, when he became the king, the feedback that [Crown of Thorns] brought to him was exaggerated.
Now that I see how domineering this holy sword is, if I really want to improve it a little more, there may not be any hope of a complete solution.
“.”
Jia Yu smiled knowingly, obviously understanding what Ji Xun meant.
Xie Guozhong was a little confused, but looking at the sword in his hand, his expression was a little hesitant: “Then this.”
Although he does not know the origin of the [Holy Sword of Olympus], he also knows that it must be a treasure.
Ji Xun smiled easily and said, “Lao Xie, just hold it. This sword is useless to others.”
The sacred weapon of royal power is just a useless rusty sword in the hands of others.
What’s more, this big sword is like a stone thrown into a fish pond. It doesn’t matter whose hand it is, it is used to fry fish.
It also gives some hope of ending this chaotic situation.
Hearing this, Xie Guozhong knew that he could not refuse. He glanced at Ji Xun with a complicated expression: “Yes. Thanks, brother Ji Xun.”
Ji Xun smiled brightly: “Thank you, you are so polite.”
He was never stingy with his friends, let alone Lao Xie, an old friend who had helped him many times.
Furthermore, a person with a royal zodiac sign may not necessarily become a king.
But it must be extraordinary.
In the smile that rose at the corner of Ji Xun’s mouth, he deduced several interesting fate lines.
Seeing Xie Guozhong, Ji Xun also understood another level of Jia Yu’s plan to go to Nanda Road.
Xie Guozhong, who lives with the jar, is in a very special situation now.
Once the pollution is leaked, Donghuang’s current situation has no ability to deal with it.
The Southern Continent is different.
Not to mention those high-ranking dragons, even the royal families of the three major empires have no big problem in dealing with these ancient foreign gods who have not yet matured.
What’s more, people in the Southern Continent are already looking for jars, and “dark under the lamp” currently seems to be the only possible way to preserve the jars.
The Holy Sword of Royal Power unexpectedly suppressed Scarlet Corruption, which surprised everyone.
At least this previously clueless problem was solved for the time being.
However, because the Holy Sword has appeared, some powerful people may have noticed it.
Jia Yu and Xie Guozhong did not dare to stay in the laboratory longer and left quickly.
Eileen, the intelligence officer, also has her own things to do.
In a blink of an eye, only Ji Xun and Master Meilin were left in the laboratory.
The most interesting experimental subject in the laboratory left, and the old man in the white coat felt a little lonely.
Merlin paced, muttering to himself: “A sword actually has divine power and can suppress divine pollution? Hehe, this idea is interesting. In this way, that experimental project can also use high-level divine objects. How to solve the mutual restraint characteristics? Hahaha. It seems that I have found a new direction.”
With that said, the old man turned around and controlled his evil god’s tentacles to start the experiment.
It seemed that he immediately forgot that there was another person in the laboratory.
Ji Xun had long been accustomed to the master’s selfless state in research, and he reminded him with a mixture of laughter and tears: “Senior Merlin.”
Only then did Merlin realize that there was another person: “Oh. I almost forgot, your kid is still here.”
His time was precious, and he never minced words when he spoke. He just said directly: “You came to me to prepare for the fifth-level professional card, right?”
Before Ji Xun could say “yes”, the old man said directly: “Take out that ‘bloody card’. All the materials are ready, all that’s needed is the bloody card in your hand. Hehe, I want to see it too. Look, what professional cards can use that kind of material?”
Ji Xun was stunned: “Ah?”
How come the other party knows everything before he even said anything.
And, are all the materials ready?
What’s going on?
Merlin looked at him blankly, and then he realized what he had thought of, and asked: “You have been staying at the Augustus Emperor’s Mausoleum recently, right? You don’t know that the news that you are wanted in the Southern Continent has been spread among the adventurers of the Old Continent. All over?”
Ji Xun: “Wanted???”
Merlin then said: “The news came from the Dragon Rebel Army. The Red Dragon Royal Family issued a wanted order, and someone killed the 19th prince of the royal family. Then your friend, named Aragorn, guessed that you got a A very special professional card, and I sent all the materials directly. I said I wanted to thank you for your previous rescue.”
“Aragorn?”
When Ji Xun heard this, he understood something.
The wanted notices are out, which means that Princess Betty must have left the mausoleum alive.
Although I don’t know how she explained the situation in the mausoleum to the royal family, it doesn’t matter anymore.
What’s important is that
This operation of the Imperial Tomb was jointly planned by the Dragon Rebel Army and the Illuminating Priory.
So when Aragorn saw the wanted notice, he knew that after Ji Xun killed Prince Salo, he probably got the fifth-level Dragonborn career card inherited from the Red Dragon royal family.
Coupled with mutual understanding, it is not difficult for Aragorn to guess that Ji Xun will definitely want to try to integrate this super powerful professional card.
Having prepared the materials in advance, it’s normal to return a favor.
At this time, Master Merlin took out a dark gold containment card and showed it: “Hey, the dark gold quality [Three-Headed Fallen Chimera], this kind of mythical material is only available in the Southern Continent. . I was also afraid that you might have special needs, so I also sent a bunch of weird auxiliary materials.”
“???”
Ji Xun was deducing what happened in his mind, when his eyes fell on the containment card and he was slightly startled.
“Chimera” is a fusion creature from myths and legends.
The three heads of this monster are a black sheep, a fallen snake, and a golden lion. In the fable, they respectively represent the “grotesque devil”, “the cunning of the viper” and the “brave lion”.
It can also be understood as elements, intelligence and flesh.
Ji Xun was still struggling with bloody cards like [Three-Headed Dragon Bahamut] before, and it would be a pity not to be able to find suitable main materials.
Isn’t it appropriate to see the three-headed monster on this containment card?
And the quality is dark gold, this material is exactly as expected!
This Chimera Jixun had only been heard in legends before. As Merlin said, it was the southern continent that could produce such rare and high-quality materials.
When Ji Xun saw this, even though he had become rich in the tomb before, he couldn’t help but mutter: “Hey, Aragorn is really interesting.”
Any other kind of gratitude would be considered unnecessary by him.
But the rare materials that suit me are really given to my needs.
On second thought, it’s not a coincidence.
[Chimera] Not everyone can use this kind of material. Even if it is harvested, it will most likely end up gathering dust in the warehouse.
The Dragon Rebel Army has been rooted in the Southern Continent for thousands of years, so it makes sense that they have a stockpile of ruthless goods.
However, there is a certain intention.
Seeing that Ji Xun was distracted while looking at the material library, Merlin urged: “Take out that bloody card of yours. I want to see what kind of fifth-level card requires this level of material.”
As a legendary card maker, the attraction of special versions of career cards that he has never seen before is irresistible to him.
Ji Xun thought about it, took out the [Three-Headed Dragon Bahamut], and said, “Then I’ll leave it to you, senior.”
“Huh!”
Merlin’s eyes lit up when he saw the bloody card, and he took it with his sticky tentacles. He immediately said with emotion: “No wonder we need such a special main material. This professional card is indeed a good thing! Tsk tsk, Dragonborn card The master’s physical fitness is much stronger than that of humans, and he can actually withstand such strong extraordinary characteristics. This is not much worse than those card masters who integrated the ‘original template’ in ancient times.”
As he said that, he could no longer suppress the anticipation in his heart and said, “Boy Ji Xun, go sit on the instrument and I will test your condition first.”
“Okay. Then I’ll trouble you, senior.”
Ji Xun is already familiar with this process.
He walked straight over, and then started operating it himself. He first put various conduits on his body, and then connected them to the instrument.
Only by testing the physical condition first can Master Merlin customize the professional card he needs as accurately as possible.
