Cataclysm King - #55 - Chapter 55: The outrageous fighting power of the ninth day

  Chapter 55 The outrageous combat power of the ninth day of the ninth day

   After running for not long, Ji Xun discovered that the underground palace seemed to be a “back-shaped” underground palace structure.

  The area is very large.

   But also limited.

   The three of Ji Xun did not try to run through the entire underground palace.

   You don’t need to walk around to guess that there are still some [Keepers] wandering in some corners of the underground palace.

  The three followed the traces of the battle on the ground, walked through a corridor, and came to a secret room full of broken bones.

  From the perspective of space, this is the most central location of the underground palace.

  Looking at the various patterns and mysterious symbols carved on the wall, Ji Xun immediately realized that this is the final exit recorded in the adventurer’s notes.

  Ji Xun looked at the broken bones all over the floor, and muttered: “The skeleton monsters have been cleaned up, which saves trouble.”

  According to the adventurer’s diary, there should have been many elite skeleton monsters near this secret room.

  It is also very difficult for low-level spell card masters.

   But now it’s all broken bones.

  [Great Cemetery Labyrinth] The level of catastrophe in this different-dimensional space itself is not high, and the strongest skeleton monster is at most at the level of a second-order disaster.

  A Tier 3 elite Frost Knight would naturally kill indiscriminately.

   That guy has been here for two or three days just now, and he can’t suppress the San value. Once the monster hatred is pulled, it can only be cleaned up.

   This is convenient for Ji Xun and the others.

  The only pity is that high-level spell card masters come to brush low-level dungeons, and almost no materials and cards will be produced.

  Even if you can really go out, the settlement evaluation will be very low.

  It’s a pity that there are silver skull leaders everywhere.

  In the corner, you can also see the collapse marks of someone sitting on a broken bone. I think this secret room is also the hiding place of the Frost Knight these days.

   On the ninth day of the ninth day, I didn’t sense that there was a 【Secret Keeper】near the secret room, and I guess it was that guy who pulled the monsters away.

  Don’t think about it, there is no safer place in the underground palace than here.

   After looking around, he said, “Let’s just wait here.”

   Hiding is impossible.

   It’s better for them to choose a place to relax and wait for work.

  Chu Jiu nodded, “Yes.”

  Go back to the zigzag maze, and then run down, you will either encounter a monster or hit the frost knight.

   There is no need to continue running away, just wait here.

  The injury on the ninth day of the ninth day has not fully recovered. After entering, I found a place to meditate cross-legged, and I was planning a big move.

   And Nan Jing knew that he couldn’t help, so he searched for something in the pile of skeletons, hoping to find some materials for making psychic skeletons, in case of emergency.

  Ji Xun entered this dark secret room, and his eyes were immediately attracted by the stone carvings on the wall.

  He shined on the lamp and carefully observed the contents of the carvings bit by bit.

  The engravings in this secret room are the most and most complex in the entire maze, and the amount of information is also the largest.

  These engraved patterns, which are mysterious symbols to others, have now become intermittent and decipherable characters in his eyes.

  Although it cannot be fully translated, the combination of pictures and texts can also half-guess and understand the general meaning.

   According to the murals and stone carvings seen outside, it should be a huge mausoleum built for himself by a certain king of the ancient Talun dynasty.

   And this maze is only the entrance level of the mausoleum.

  There is not much information about the tomb on the murals.

   But Ji Xun looked at it, looked up at the core of the top of his head, and saw the mysterious symbol “” again.

  It is obviously just a simple moon symbol, but it seems like magic, which makes people see that it vaguely touches a certain instinct that goes straight to the deep sleep of the soul, and awakens the terrifying memory in the blood inheritance.

  It is a feeling that cannot be described in words.

  It seems to have seen an indescribable god.

  I also felt the same way when I was in the cellar on Tailor Street.

  Ji Xun immediately put on a clown mask in order to avoid being polluted by some mysterious power.

   But after all, it is just a different-dimensional space, and some things are not as real as the real thing.

   After observing it, I didn’t find any hint of “Old Miracle”.

   Looking at the distribution of the four stone pillars around it is also very subtle, as if it coincides with some kind of formation.

  The content carved on it is that some people wearing robes like priests are performing a mysterious ceremony. Although the direction of worship of the priests is different, they are all facing the moon symbol on the central ceiling.

  Ji Xun looked at the patterns of the corpses that were hung for sacrifice, and he was familiar with them at a glance, and thought, “Isn’t this the ritual of skinning and offering sacrifices in the cellar on Tailor Street?”

  The moment he saw these stone carvings, he had a faint flash of inspiration.

  However, what does the purpose of this sacrificial ceremony mean?

  Is this trying to communicate with an ancient god?

   Or pray for strength?

  He didn’t find the exact answer in the carving.

  Although the card master borrowed the power of demons, he didn’t believe in gods. Therefore, in Ji Xun’s impression, the ancient gods’ retinues and old sects are similar to the rats in the sewer in the eyes of hunters, they are all crazy and extreme aliens.

  Ji Xun didn’t look at those sacrificial ceremonies more, his first task now is to find a way out.

   But there are too many carvings in the secret room, and I can’t read them all in a while.

   Before he finished reading, there was the sound of armor rubbing in the empty corridor.

   Chu Jiu, who was in meditation, suddenly opened his eyes, and said softly, “Here we are.”

  Ji Xun was not surprised.

  The frost knight is here.

  Even if weak or injured, a third-tier spell card master still feels oppressive.

  The three watched the Frost Knight in white armor walk into the secret room, step by step, the iron armor clanging.

   That aggressive momentum came, like a mountain falling.

  Ji Xun felt like he was not breathing, but there was a cold glow in his eyes.

   Obviously, the intention was not good.

  Like a sick tiger seeing three rabbits, the eyes in the T-shaped gap of the iron helmet are still sharp, and the contempt in his eyes is not concealed at all.

  The concept of class in this world is very strong. Nobles and commoners are people from two worlds, let alone the exiled sinners in the city of innocence.

  In the eyes of the Frost Knight, the people in the city are like monsters in the sewer, as if they are in the same room and the air will be dirty.

   This is contempt for strength and status.

  It is also the arrogance engraved in the bones of the noble class for thousands of years.

  Looked at the three of them, a small character dressed as a corpse collector, and two card masters dressed as adventurers, all of which were not worth mentioning.

  Frost Knight didn’t mean to talk nonsense at all, and asked in a condescending tone: “How did you get here?”

  He doesn’t even care who these three are.

  The potential threat of murder in that tone was not concealed at all.

  Ji Xun naturally understood this threat, and pretended to be trembling: “I found an adventurer’s diary, and it happened that we also knew a little bit about solving puzzles. We found it here.”

  Frost Knight listened, and immediately felt that the notes might be the key to getting out!

  He couldn’t wait, and said in a commanding tone: “Give me the notes!”

  Ji Xun also sensibly handed over the notes in the backpack at his waist.

  Frost Knight got the notes. The thick armored gloves can hold a sword, but they can’t turn the thin paper.

  He stood the sword beside the stone pillar, untied the armor glove, still held the mysterious box in one hand, and opened the notes with one hand.

   Seeing this, my heart was suddenly stunned.

  With so many people coming in, there are always a few lucky ones who survived.

   Like himself.

   And the three people in front of me who found this note.

   But after looking at it, Frost Knight also found that there seems to be no way to record it based on the contents of the notes alone.

  He frowned, turned around and asked, “Can you solve riddles?”

  Ji Xun responded timidly: “Yes. We discovered that the maze passage was moving before, and then we followed the prompts in the notes and ran in.”

  Ji Xun said this because he wanted to give this guy a psychological hint: We are all your hope to get out.

   After a real fight, the opponent would never dare to kill the first time.

   Unless it is absolutely necessary, this guy will never kill his only hope of survival.

  Only those who have experienced despair, see a glimmer of hope, even if it is a straw, they will firmly grasp it in their hands.

  Frost Knight couldn’t bear the urgency to leave the maze in his heart, so he asked without any nonsense, “Have you found any way to get out?”

  Ji Xun said bluntly: “I found a clue.”

   This is also true.

   The perception of a third-tier spell card master is extremely keen. If it is completely false, no matter how good the acting skills are, it is impossible to deceive it.

  When Frost Knight heard this, his heart was filled with anticipation, and he immediately asked, “How do I get out?”

Ji Xun pointed directly at the carvings on the ceiling and said: “This is a sacrificial ceremony pointing to the old gods. The clue given by the space is that 300,000 artisans were killed in the pit. I guess the death of the artisans may be It is also related to the sacrifice of the old god. So I guess those craftsmen may leave some clues in these stone carving symbols.”

   This is not true at all.

   It was originally Ji Xun’s most likely idea to break the situation.

   “Sacrifice?”

  When Frost Knight heard this, he immediately felt that his thoughts suddenly became clear.

   He instinctively wanted to look up at the symbols on the ceiling.

  However, although the T-shaped design of the helmet provides excellent protection, the field of vision is also greatly limited.

  It is very difficult to look up to see what is above your head.

  Instinctively, he wanted to take off his helmet for better vision.

  But it was just a moment when the hand was on the helmet, and it stopped for a moment.

   I have to say that the intuition of the third-tier spell card master is still very keen.

  He seemed to realize something, narrowed his eyes and warned coldly: “Boy, you’d better not play any tricks.”

  Ji Xun’s expression was full of panic when he heard this, and his acting skills were flawless.

  His body also cleverly blocked the guy’s view of Chu Jiu and Nan Jing. He is a professional actor, but these two are not.

   Although this Frost Knight is extremely arrogant, he is actually very cautious.

  The coercion released before was actually to test the strength of the three of them again, and even if he found that the strength of the three of them was not worth mentioning, he was not careless, and kept a safe distance from the beginning to the end.

  Frost Knight had a vague intuition that something was wrong.

   But the urgency to survive at this moment suppressed everything.

  He still pulled the mechanism inside the armor, and with a click, the helmet opened, revealing a pale, tired and stern face.

  In his eyes, these three people could kill with backhands.

  He absolutely didn’t expect it. There is really a level 1 card master who is so stupid that he dares to pay his attention.

   Without the restriction of the helmet, Frost Knight raised his head, wanting to see the mysterious symbols that he hadn’t seen the way before.

   But I don’t know, this is what Ji Xun deliberately led him to do!

   Almost at the moment when Frost Knight took off his helmet and looked up, Ji Xun pulled back suddenly.

  At the same time, the ninth day of the ninth day also started!

  But how keen is the fighting intuition of a third-tier spell card master?

   Frost Knight noticed the sudden retreat intention of the little carder next to him at the first time, and sneered in his heart: Overbearing!

   Thinking that this guy is the key to getting out, he didn’t make a ruthless hand, he raised his hand and wanted to catch him, thinking in his heart that he would break a leg and teach him a lesson

  However, just as he was about to make a move, he found that his body was sluggish for a moment, and his heart was instantly alert: “Huh, mind attack?”

   But that thought power was not enough to stop his actions, but it really restricted it for a moment.

   Is this something a first-tier card master can do?

  Frost Knight noticed something was wrong and turned his head violently.

  He ignored Ji Xun who was running away, but looked at Chu Jiu who had already attacked.

  I don’t know why, looking at this first-level spell card master, the contempt in the Frost Knight’s heart was swept away, and his scalp tingled instinctively.

  But his fighting instinct also made him react immediately. He stretched out a pair of big hands, and suddenly a light blue ice spell burst out of his body, and his whole body immediately became chilly.

  Even if the battle mana is nearly exhausted in the past few days, it is still more than enough to kill a first-level card master.

  The Frost Knight thought he could subdue this overconfident guy in an instant, but he didn’t want to, his complexion changed suddenly!

  The ninth day of the ninth day has been secretly prepared for a long time, and if there is another sneak attack, how could it be missed?

  Frost Knight advances through the path of order [Six of Spades – Punishment Iron Guard], which focuses on controlling counterattacks. Coupled with the ice-type silver-quality breathing method [Frost Qi] secreted by the Cao family, it can control and fight.

   This is also the best match that has been honed by countless senior Frost Knights for thousands of years.

   Normal fights with people, the enemy is stuck by the frost spell and cannot escape.

  The large-scale control of the legion is a nightmare for the enemy.

  However, what he never expected was that his high-level ice spell power would not stick to a first-level card master?

   Before he could figure out why.

   Almost at the very moment when he burst into flames, he watched the mysterious girl in the sackcloth cloak change suddenly, and her beautiful hair turned into silver hair in an instant. The hand knife lingering with an invisible stance has already appeared in front of his face, and the shining silver card ejected from the air also burst into a psychedelic brilliance at the same time.

   Frost Knight’s wide eyes finally revealed a hint of horror.

   I have rank suppression. In theory, any spell card master below the third rank will be greatly restricted.

  But the opponent’s chill turned out to be suppressed at the level of law?

  He immediately realized that there was something wrong with the girl in front of him!

   When he saw clearly that the pattern on the card was a distorted human face, he was even more frightened: the second-order mysterious card [Arcane · Will Collapse]!

  This kind of Tier 2 arcane cards, even Tier 2 mysterious spell card masters may not be able to use them freely.

  She, a first-level spell card master, was activated instantly?

  As the knight captain of Governor Cao’s family, he knows many high-end secrets.

   Seeing the current situation, he suddenly thought of a possibility: “You are the one!”

  Being able to suppress his own third-order ice spell power with first-order spell power at the level of law, the only possibility that the Frost Knight could think of was that the quality of this girl’s fused demon mark was much higher than her own.

  He is a fused silver mark, that is to say, the other party’s fused demon mark is at least legendary quality!

   And almost every legendary card has a great origin.

  Ice-type, but also telekinetic attacks.

  In the city of innocence, there is only the S-rank wanted criminal!

  Frost Knight was also shocked. He never expected that a person he met in the maze would have a lot of background.

  However, Chu Jiu didn’t give him any chance. Since he made a surprise attack, it was a killer move!

  The cold air released by the Frost Knight was as light blue as the sky, while the cold air condensed on her body was as dark blue as the sea!

  At the same time as the cards collapsed, the demonic power scattered by the phantom of the demon behind Chu Jiu was also boiling, and he punched out at the same time.

   At this moment, the mind is already confused.

  Frost Knight’s entire sensory world seemed to be distorted, and his eye circles seemed to see countless figures.

   A muffled sound of “boom”,

   I can’t avoid it, so I can only take it hard.

   It was the knife approaching, and an invisible stance more terrifying than the cold, piercing into his mind like a needle.

   This is a telekinetic attack!

   Frost Knight’s physical condition was exhausted, and his spirit was on the verge of collapse after a few days of fighting.

   This time, it was as if the soul was frozen, and then it was hit by a heavy hammer, and it shattered into pieces all over the ground.

   Frost Knight was hit so hard, his eyes turned white instantly, and his tall body staggered back a few steps.

   But not dead yet!

  The ninth day of the ninth day did not stop.

   Without giving the enemy any chance to resist, her fists seemed to be surrounded by a layer of frost flames, and she punched heavily towards the face of the Frost Knight.

  “咚”“咚”“咚”.

  In the huge secret room, there was a muffled ringing like a bell.

   Not far away, Ji Xun looked at such a vigorous Chu Jiu, his eyes were bright: “It’s much stronger than last time.”

  Seeing the aggressive aura of his old friend, he was also filled with emotion.

   It’s not that Ji Xun has never met an official spell card master.

   But the one who is so ridiculously strong is the only one in front of me.

   And Chu Jiu’s outrageous combat power is directly related to the phantom of the demon **** behind her.

  Before at 407, Ji Xun didn’t know what happened to the phantom behind the silver-haired Chu Jiu.

   Now I vaguely guessed it.

  Although I don’t know which one of the fifty-two demon gods the demon mark fused on the ninth day of the first day is pointing to, the quality must be very high.

   At least the legendary quality, or the same epic source card as [JOKER].

  Ji Xun is more inclined to the latter.

   After all, she can’t be greedy for one thing at all, except for character, that is something of equal value to herself.

  The identity of this old friend is not simple.

  Because the sneak attack took the lead, Chu Jiu severely injured the Frost Knight with one move.

  Although the battle was fierce, the Frost Knight was already mentally disturbed, and he was in a daze the whole time, and his counterattack was more instinctive.

   Underestimating the enemy also cost him a price.

  Triple damage from physical, magical, and spiritual powers made him retreat steadily.

   It looks intense, but the actual ending has already been decided.

  This level of fighting is life-threatening even if you are watching it. The terrifying ice spell is useless to Chu Jiu, but it is a fatal threat to Ji Xun and Nan Jing.

   At the moment when the two fought, the huge secret room instantly turned into an ice cave.

   Bitter chill.

   Fortunately, the walls in the underground palace are regular objects. Ji Xun and Nan Jing hid behind the walls, blocked by zombies, but they were not affected much.

finally.

   There was a muffled “boom”, and the tall frost knight was dead on the spot.

  Seeing that the battle was over, Nan Jing quickly ran over to hold Chu Jiu who was vomiting blood.

  Ji Xun also spoke with concern: “How are you?”

  Chu Jiumian responded calmly: “It’s not a big problem.”

  Ji Xun didn’t say much, with Nan Jing helping to heal his injuries, he couldn’t help much.

  He thought, and walked to the corpse.

  Looking at the overflowing extraordinary characteristics, he couldn’t help but look forward to it: This is the corpse of a third-level spell card master!

   Didn’t look much, Ji Xun’s eyes were attracted by the suitcase that the Frost Knight didn’t put down until his death.

  There are things in this box that are immune to the [Keeper] curse attack.

  With this thing, it is only a matter of time before the maze is solved.

   Ji Xun was very curious about what was inside.

   Thanks to old friends for their alliance of friendship, and thanks to “Happy Bad Guy” for their support.
