Cataclysm King - #380 - Chapter 380 Kill four with one
Ji Xun had also carefully studied the niche spell system of “curse” before.
But I soon realized that I was not suitable.
It’s not difficult to get started with curses.
But mastery often requires some tragic fate.
Usually this fate will be like a curse that tortures the person throughout his life.
Such as a vicious stepmother, an alcoholic stepfather, a miserable childhood
The most important thing is that curses are dark spells that gain power from corruption and evil. The essence is to “inflict the dark evil that one has endured on others.”
The deeper the card master studies the curse, the more twisted and dark his character will be, and the more miserable his experience will be.
Cursing others misfortune will also bring misfortune back to them.
This is the curse.
The black-toothed old woman in front of her was quite skillful in her curse skills.
Even when Ji Xun faced her, he immediately felt a numbing fatal threat.
This is also the reason why he didn’t chase down the other black knife killers just now and wanted to deal with this guy first!
Seeing Ji Xun rushing toward her, the black-toothed old woman immediately realized that she was invincible.
There was a fierce look in her eyes, and the tattoo on her face lit up with spells. At the same time, a card with a black eyeball pattern was turned out in her hand, and she snorted coldly in her heart: “Humph! Seeking death!”
The curse technique focuses on one “evil” and the other “unpreventable”.
Although the curse warlock is physically weak, a truly high-level curse warlock is not afraid of getting close at all.
The closer the distance, the greater the power of the curse.
Seeing the fist coming, the old lady Heiya showed no fear at all. Black fire-like spell power surged all over her body, and she was about to activate the card in her hand.
However, in the next second, an unexpected scene took place!
Just as the old lady with black teeth was about to cast the curse, she suddenly felt that her fingers were empty, and the infused curse power also lost its carrier.
Does it feel like a boxer is about to punch and suddenly realizes that his fist is missing?
I lowered my head and glanced out of the corner of my eye. I didn’t know when the spell card in my hand had disappeared!
“what happened?”
Her eyes widened and she didn’t understand what happened, and a “dong” punch hit her eye socket.
There was a “pop” sound.
The head exploded into a foul-smelling slurry.
Ji Xun’s Gang Qi isolated the dirty blood. At the same time, he glanced at the spell card that appeared out of thin air in his hand, and thought to himself: “The Gazing Eye of the Resentful Ghost? A legendary card. Hey, I’m willing to give it up.”
It can be seen that this is a trump card used to save lives.
The value of this spell card itself exceeds that of many relics.
If Ji Xun was really hit, not only would he die suddenly on the spot, he would most likely spend many years of his life recovering.
At the same time, Ji Xun also became more satisfied with his newly learned secret technique.
The reason why Old Lady Black Tooth’s curse card is in his hand is because he just used [Miao Hand Empty] to steal the card directly from the air.
A thief skill that controls the laws of space that he won through gambling with the thief Xianjia on the Netherworld Train.
In addition to stealing things, other uses have now been developed.
Facts have proved that using this technique to steal the opponent’s cards from the air during battle is miraculous.
Not only can it interrupt the opponent’s spell casting, but it can also force mental control in that moment of confusion.
The first battle effect is good.
At this scene, Reni and the other three black knife assassins in the distance were also stunned.
The pace of the battle was too fast. They didn’t have time to understand what was happening. They just watched Ji Xun kill the old lady Heiya twice in lightning speed.
However, I have to say that the card master who is proficient in curses has extremely strong vitality.
Ji Xungang thought he had killed this man, and suddenly frowned.
My scalp felt itchy, as if something was coming out.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a poisonous mushroom with red spots and white spots growing out of his head!
When Ji Xun saw this, he already understood something. He turned his head and looked at the rock wall above his head, and thought to himself: “Hey, the spores that are parasitic in the Gang Qi? Tsk, tsk, these guys’ methods are really from the underworld.”
As expected, it was the potion master who had been hiding in the dark to put poison.
Ji Xun clearly sensed that the mushroom was not only poisonous, but was also rapidly absorbing the mantra and life force of his body.
It’s a pity that with the blessing of two magical mysteries, “Immortality Curse” and “Gluttony”, he will definitely be sucked dry in a short time.
But what’s even more troublesome is that the old woman with black teeth is not dead yet.
The moment the corpse’s head was blown open, a psychic array suddenly lit up in the darkness in the distance, and a toad appeared again.
Ji Xun looked at it and immediately understood: “So it turns out that summons are used to transfer part of the damage?”
He had seen Nanjing use this trick.
It has to be said that the killer methods of the Black Knife Organization are much better than those of ordinary card masters.
After all, they are all elites secretly trained by the Oran royal family, and many of the spells they know are rare secrets that cannot be seen on the market.
The toad opened its mouth, and an old woman covered in mucus came out.
Although most of his breath was weakened, he was indeed not dead.
She looked at Ji Xun and laughed like a duck in her throat: “Do you think you can kill me like this?”
He had learned a lesson from his death just now. As he spoke, the curse had been released.
What is being used now must be life-saving means.
Ji Xun was helpless.
He didn’t see how the other party’s curse was performed. He only felt a chill on his back and could see with the naked eye a black energy above his head that was connected to the old woman.
He had seen this legendary evil curse in the classics and murmured: “Causal Curse·Resonance of the Fallen? This is a bit troublesome.”
Another very disgusting but rare “forbidden level” spell.
This is not an offensive spell.
It is a last resort for curse card masters to protect themselves.
Ji Xun was deeply impressed because this spell was very difficult to practice.
According to the introduction in the classics, practicing this spell requires sacrificing souls that have been killed and tortured to the point of resentment. At the same time, you will also be tortured by evil spirits;
The more sacrifices are made, the higher the level of the target that can resonate.
That’s why it was classified as a forbidden technique.
If the effect
It’s a bit like a “reverse damage” skill.
The spell is cast through a medium and lasts approximately ten minutes to half an hour.
During this period, the target marked by the curse cannot cause malicious harm to the caster, otherwise it will be counterattacked by the spell, causing an effect similar to “damage transferred in equal amounts”.
And the disgusting thing is that the person who is attacked cannot kill the caster, but the caster can attack as usual.
So under normal circumstances, as long as Ji Xun didn’t kill her, she would be fine; if she killed someone, he would most likely die.
The best option is to find a way to escape.
In this way, theoretically speaking, the old woman is already in a state of immortality.
Seeing the momentary hesitation on Ji Xun’s face, the old lady opposite thought that he understood clearly and was afraid of it. She sarcastically said again: “Your Excellency, you really surprised us. If it weren’t for the old lady’s cleverness, I would really be here today.”
She had used this life-saving ability to escape from higher-level card masters several times, and even fought back.
Now it seems that it still works!
In the distance, Reni also thought that Ji Xun didn’t know the power of this spell, so he shouted anxiously and reminded: “Be careful! This is a causal curse! Don’t go.”
But before he finished speaking, he was interrupted.
Instead of being afraid, Ji Xun’s eyes gradually became hotter. The evil smile raised at the corner of his mouth became increasingly uncontrollable, and he murmured: “I have to say, you guys really gave me a little surprise. Otherwise, just say It would be too boring to kill you like this.”
I just felt a little uncomfortable.
Now that I see these endless secret techniques, I immediately understand them.
As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the old black-toothed woman in the distance froze, and her expression was full of doubts: “You”
She couldn’t figure out what the high-spirited fighting spirit on the other party’s face meant.
However, the next moment, a cold murderous intention hit his heart.
The old lady was suddenly startled and immediately realized that the other party still wanted something from her. She screamed in her heart: Doesn’t this guy know about this karma curse?
Lennie also felt bad, but couldn’t help even if he wanted to.
Because Ji Xun’s movements were too fast!
With a “pop” sound, he only saw the ripples in the air, and the whole person disappeared in place.
By now, Ji Xun has determined that the “marking medium” of the curse is the previous batch of goods.
For ordinary people, if they want to survive, the safest choice is to throw away all the things they bought from the black market, and then run away quickly, far away from the old woman who can curse.
But that was someone else.
Not Ji Xun.
He couldn’t throw away things.
People also have to be killed.
Therefore, Ji Xun immediately took action with his murderous intention.
The speed of the air control and repulsion blessing was extremely fast. In almost a blink of an eye, the two were less than one meter apart, giving the enemy no time to react.
Their eyes met, and the old lady couldn’t believe it. Ji Xunzhen sneered: “I want to see how many natal psychics you have that can die for you!”
Before the other party could cast the spell in panic, a punch with destructive force hit the old woman’s head again.
“Bang!” The sound of another watermelon exploding resounded throughout the cave.
There is a time gap when the curse backfires.
As long as you find a solution before it backfires, you can still kill!
This is Ji Xun’s choice!
The old woman has been resurrected twice. This time, Ji Xun didn’t want to give her another chance to take action.
At the moment when a toad appeared out of thin air not far away, the sound of stepping into the air sounded again.
Before the toad could spit out the person, it screamed in horror: “Stop him quickly!”
After all, they were a team that cooperated tacitly. Seeing that the old woman was about to be killed, the other three also reacted.
They gave up the idea of siegeing Reni and wanted to come to help.
Just as Ji Xun was charging into the air, a dark red short knife quietly appeared in mid-air, blocking his path to kill the old woman.
Ji Xun could see now that the old woman seemed to have to come out of the toad’s mouth before she could cast the spell.
In other words, she would be killed in the stomach, and she would have no room to resist.
If Ji Xun avoids this knife, the old woman opposite will be able to come out just in time.
Time is running out!
Thinking of this, the magic power surged all over his body, and the clown’s shadow suddenly appeared behind him.
In an instant, an indescribable pressure from a high-ranking demon swept over the scene.
Ji Xun’s aura suddenly increased a lot, and the pressure was like a mountain falling, suffocating everyone present.
Only then did Reni and the others realize that the man in front of them just now had not used all his strength at all!
Under the blessing of the devil’s power, Ji Xun’s skin shone with a bronze luster, and dragon scales instantly covered his vital parts.
He had no intention of avoiding the dagger and ran straight into it.
The crimson dagger was obviously a relic with a Po Gang entry, and the blade dancer’s use of the weapon had reached a very clever level.
This made Ji Xun unsure of how to avoid it.
so,
He chose to resist!
Almost as soon as the two of them touched, the blade transformed into a dozen red shadows that could not be distinguished from the real ones. They easily broke through Ji Xun’s protective aura and stabbed all the vital points around his body.
Just listen to a series of sharp metal sounds of “clang, clang, clang”.
The blade dancer looked horrified.
He was shocked to find that his knife didn’t break the defense?
How could the supreme hegemonic body after the transformation of the golem be pierced by a fourth-level blade dancer?
If it weren’t for the weirdness of the red blade, the opponent wouldn’t even be able to break through the Gang Qi.
Ji Xun ignored the blade dancer who still wanted to pester him, and charged away like a bull.
In just a blink of an eye, he grabbed the toad that was spitting out people.
Ji Xun grabbed the neck of an old lady with black teeth who had just appeared, and let out a loud shout that contained sonic hypnosis skills: “Where is the ‘soul medium’ who can lift the curse?!”
The old woman was so shocked by this that her already bloodless face turned ashen.
The moment she was about to die, she knew what the other party was going to do.
But some pictures came to mind uncontrollably.
Before she could react, Ji Xun pulled her hard.
Before the person was completely spit out from the toad’s mouth, he pierced the other person’s heart with another hand knife.
“you!!!”
The old woman’s eyes were trembling with shock. Before she could say anything, a mouthful of old blood spurted out. She was already extremely weak.
At the same time, Ji Xun also clearly felt that the fatal damage suffered by the opponent was rapidly coming back to him.
It was this smell of approaching death that made the corners of his mouth curl higher and higher: “Hey, hey, he’s here.”
He calculated very clearly in his mind that the backlash of the curse would reach its peak in one minute!
Now we must race against time to find the medium to break the curse.
Thoughts flashed in his mind, and Ji Xun was not slow at all. He took out the [Grey Mist Relic Photo] he got before with lightning speed.
The target is in a weak state, this is the best time to “search for the soul”!
While infusing the magic power and lighting up, Ji Xun placed the black and white photo on the old woman’s forehead. This pull instantly pulled out the memory in her head.
Like a movie reel, a stream of images appeared in the void and was imprinted on the photo in an instant.
Ji Xun’s eyes flashed rapidly, searching among the frequently changing memory fragments.
At this moment, his mind was functioning at its peak.
Fortunately, he found what he wanted right away!
There was a “click”, the neck bone was broken, and the black-toothed old lady died suddenly on the spot.
At the same time, there was a flash of light and shadow, and Ji Xun had already appeared a hundred meters away, next to the body of the old woman who had just died for the first time.
He picked up the storage ring and quickly found a skull in it.
As soon as it was crushed in the palm of the hand, hundreds of green ghosts immediately floated out of the skeleton as if they were freed, and fled in all directions.
At the same time, the black air above Ji Xun’s head dissipated instantly.
The curse is gone!
After doing all this, the smile on his lips became more and more ferocious, and he said with a sly smile: “What a pity. I almost died.”
He greedily recalled the feeling of death coming at that moment, and at the moment when the crisis was lifted, it sublimated into an ultimate feeling of joy like being in the clouds.
The forbidden technique [Causal Curse·Resonance of the Fallen] that Old Lady Black Tooth practiced so hard is almost extinct in the Eastern Wasteland.
But in the inheritance of Nandalu, there is a complete inheritance.
Ji Xun had seen a detailed introduction to this evil curse when he was collecting the trophies of the seventh-level voodoo master “Black Widow” Heather in the Plague Swamp.
Witch doctors specialize in all kinds of difficult diseases and can also exorcise curses.
It is recorded in it that the best way to crack this kind of causal curse is to destroy the soul medium carrier used by the caster to practice this secret technique.
And to cast a curse, the “soul medium” must be carried with him!
So when Ji Xun found out that he had been attacked, the first thing he thought of was not to escape, but to steal the soul.
But the only problem is that he doesn’t know where the old lady hides her things.
Fortunately, I just got [Gray Mist Relic] in my hand.
The function of this relic is to extract a specific part of the target’s memory.
And if it is extracted violently, the target’s most persistent thoughts before death will usually be extracted.
So just before Ji Xun killed someone, he shouted out the words asking where the media was.
Although the old woman guessed his purpose at the last moment, her thinking instinct would unconsciously come up with the answer to that question.
This allowed Cataclysm to accurately strip away the most impressive memory of the last period of her life.
Across the way, Reni and the other three black knife killers were completely stunned.
They didn’t know what happened until Ji Xun finished all this.
Reni’s eyes were full of disbelief, as if he were looking at a monster: “That guy actually thought of this method?!”
Is this operation something a normal person would dare to think about?
Several other people present also knew that the only way to break the backlash of the curse was to find a “soul medium”.
We also know that [Grey Mist Relic] can extract memories.
They know all the conditions.
But unfortunately, no one thought that these factors could be connected.
And in front of me, someone performed a standard answer.
In addition to running away, there are other ways to deal with it.
Inflict heavy damage on the target, forcefully search for souls at the last moment, and then get clues.
No matter how you think about it, this plan seems outrageous and crazy.
It was as if he was frantically testing the god of death on the verge of death, unable to cut himself with the scythe.
But the reality is unfolding before our eyes.
The excited and ferocious laughter that echoed through the cave seemed to be mocking their cowardice.
The guy with the clown’s shadow behind him taught them a lesson they will never forget.
“What kind of monster is this guy hiding in his heart?”
Reni was so shocked that he was speechless.
He recognized that guy because he was very powerful. After all, he was an S-class wanted criminal on the wanted list.
But just because of his strength, he thought it would be safer to escape.
But he didn’t!
What he did just now was simply a lunatic!
If it were Reni himself who was struck by the curse, he would definitely choose to escape.
Then try to distance yourself as much as possible, and then think of a solution after the curse wears off.
I never expected to see such an outrageous operation.
Heavy damage, soul search.
Theoretically, this is indeed the information that can be obtained from the “soul medium”.
But what if?
What if the damage is not controlled and the person is killed directly so that the soul cannot be searched?
What if the memory of the old lady Heiya is too complicated and no clues are found?
What if the location where the soul medium is placed is not easy to find?
just in case
There are too many uncontrollable factors.
A slight mistake in one step could mean sudden death.
It feels like a gambling table. Every time you win, you put all your chips on it. Only a madman would bet that you will keep winning.
If the bet is wrong, you die!
Lennie knew he couldn’t do it.
I don’t dare to gamble and I don’t have the confidence.
But just because he saw someone doing it in front of him, he was shocked beyond measure.
Unless he saw it with his own eyes, it would be hard for him to imagine that such a crazy guy existed.
Ji Xun stood there for a few breaths.
He didn’t want to explain to anyone.
The uncontrollable factors in the eyes of others are not so many variables in the deduction of “I am the world”.
All the factors that are happening point to an inevitable result.
All he needs is some decisiveness and just the right execution.
Of course, in the deduction, the risks are real.
For example, too many memories were stripped out, and Ji Xun didn’t find what he wanted before the curse backfired completely.
But it is precisely because of this uncertainty that the plan has extraordinary appeal.
And Ji Xun will not assume some “what if” that has already ended.
He survived and that was the outcome.
At this time, Ji Xun raised his eyes again and looked at the three killers in the distance, and the familiar and strange smile appeared at the corner of his mouth again.
The old lady with black teeth who posed the greatest threat to him was dead, and all that was left was dessert.
There was only a “pop” sound in the air, and Ji Xun’s figure had disappeared from the spot.
On the other side, the three black knife assassins had just witnessed his outrageous fighting power, and their expressions were already ashen.
Reni also suppressed his shock at the same time. Seeing the three of them trying to run away, he quickly stepped forward to help stop them.
“Bang!”
“Bang!”
“Bang!”
The battle in the cave was fierce, but it only lasted for a short time and then completely subsided.
Not long after.
The barrier was broken, and a mechanical boat reappeared in the underground river, slowly sliding into the unknown depths of darkness.
Just like before, Reni rowed the boat, carrying the “outsider” who came to the Shadow Abyss Black Market from elsewhere.
As if nothing happened, Ji Xun still sat on the bow of the boat calmly.
He was checking the memories extracted from the photos.
The four Black Knife members who were killed just now have a lot of information in their memories.
Although scattered, the four of them came together and Ji Xun also obtained too much interesting information.
Only then did he understand why he met the black and the black.
After the Oran Dynasty collapsed more than two hundred years ago, the remnants of the old era had been in exile for two hundred years.
They were hiding everywhere.
But it also needs some material sources and intelligence.
So the former palace secret service organization “Black Knife” became the current killer organization.
While they were collecting intelligence, they also started robbing families to make a living.
Extreme Thieves City is the largest black knife stronghold in the entire Eastern Wasteland.
Ji Xun looked at the information, and the most important thing was to see if there would be any subsequent trouble.
After a quick look, there wasn’t any.
As expected, the old woman thought she was someone from the Lionheart Family or the Revolutionary Army who came to purchase supplies. It was their normal operation to take advantage of others.
I’ve done it many times before.
After all, now that the Oran royal family has been restored, there are no fat sheep that they dare not kill.
Then regarding Reni who was on the boat, these four people didn’t know why. They were just ordered to intercept him.
Use the cataclysmic object [Gray Mist Relic] as bait, and then wait for the fish to take the bait.
The original plan was to recover the lost bait and continue fishing;
Unexpectedly, I caught a shark.
On the small boat, the mechanical oars stirred the water and made a sound.
No one spoke, and the atmosphere was slightly dull, showing a bit of depression and uneasiness.
Reni glanced at Ji Xun on the boat from time to time with his peripheral vision, feeling mixed emotions in his heart.
The terrifying battle power of killing four people just now had extinguished any thoughts in his mind.
He knew very well that if the other party was willing, he could even kill him too.
The scene now is almost exactly the same as when he left the black market.
The man sat there as calmly as ever.
But it was this silence that made Reni feel an invisible pressure with every breath.
After all, I couldn’t stand this depression.
Reni also knew that he needed to break the silence, so he took the initiative to ask: “Your Excellency, where are you going? I am quite familiar with the underground river under the Thief City, so I can send you there first.”
After hearing this, Ji Xun raised his head and said, “There’s no rush.”
He looked at the boatman in front of him and said with a faint smile: “Rather than leaving, I am more curious to ask, what is the relationship between you and Domingo, the “god of drama”? “
Lennie was not surprised that he would ask this.
He also knew that he had no room to refuse to answer.
Just as if he was thinking of some unbearable past events, he smiled bitterly and laughed at himself: “Really speaking, I am still Domingo’s uncle.”
As he spoke, there was something hidden in his eyes, and he added in a deep tone: “His father is my biological brother.”
“oh?”
Ji Xun was not surprised.
Just now I saw this guy’s extremely exquisite puppetry skills, and I had already guessed it.
The inheritance of “The King’s Four Knights” is secretly passed down by the palace and will never be circulated to the outside world.
I just didn’t expect the relationship to be so close.
And upon hearing this opening, Ji Xun immediately became interested and continued to ask: “So, why is Domingo chasing you? Also, why do you want [Gray Mist Relic]?”
Reni now also knew that there was no point in hiding it, and sighed: “This is a scandal within our family of drama gods. If you are interested in hearing about it, I don’t mind talking about it.”
After a pause, he directly stated his purpose: “As for the [Grey Mist Relic], I don’t need this catastrophic object. But I need to find a piece of dusty memory inside.”
