Cataclysm King - #89 - Chapter 89: Xiao Nan, you come to be the bait
Chapter 89 Xiaonan, you come to be the bait
Enlightenment pops up.
This made the four of Ji Xun, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly look dignified again.
But probably Ji Xun has already deduced that it may trigger an A-level plot.
Now that it was really triggered, the few people were not surprised except that they realized the seriousness of the situation.
Moreover, the content of the enlightenment directly proves that Ji Xun’s previous speculations are correct.
Instead, this made the three of Nan Jing inexplicably feel confident.
Facts have proved that some people’s deduction is really powerful.
You may not understand why before the prompt “will kill all witchers” on Enlightenment.
Now that the three of Nan Jing already know, there is a high probability that it was caused by the employment contract they signed in the city.
Only in this way can the werewolf be able to identify the demon hunters in the huge town of Townsend.
That is to say, if the three of them want to pass the level, they must survive for three days under the pursuit of the hidden werewolf.
The cloud of death instantly enveloped the three of them.
Class B can still be sure.
But the A-level difficulty has exceeded their team’s ability to deal with it.
The eyes of the three of them fell on Ji Xun involuntarily.
The plot happened according to this person’s prediction, so I knew that this person was really foresight.
At the same time, they are only now realizing the ingenuity of Ji Xun’s “Killing All Plan”.
Fortunately, most of the werewolves in the mine were killed just now, otherwise all the reminders of “all werewolves entering a state of violent bloodthirsty” would be enough for them to drink a pot.
Ji Xun looked at the burning eyes of the three of them in different degrees, and felt a little strange in his heart, guessing what the three of them were thinking.
In fact, he didn’t expect so much.
Just deduced various possibilities, and his intuition told him that it would be better to clean up the monsters in the mine first.
Nan Jing didn’t see anything wrong, and asked directly: “Mr. Ji Xun, what are we going to do next?”
Ji Xun thought about it: “The ‘first-generation werewolf infected body’ should be the blacksmith Sanji. Since it is an A-level plot difficulty, then he must also be an A-level disaster. If you return to the city, you will definitely not be able to go back.”
As he spoke, he said again: “Let’s go to the fourth floor of the mine. The key to breaking the game should be the ‘witch’s secret letter’.”
In the plot mode, the key to breaking the game must be the plot.
“Um.”
Nan Jing and the three nodded without any doubts.
However, just as he was about to leave, Ji Xun said again: “Oh! There is one more important point.”
The three of Mo Feng turned their heads and looked over.
Ji Xun looked at Nanjing, thought of something, and said, “I need a bait.”
Nan Jing watched him staring at her, pointed to her nose, “Me?”
Mo Feng and A Yao were also surprised: Bait?
“Um.”
Ji found no ink marks, and explained directly: “The people of the Black Wolf Mercenary Group are still on the fourth floor of the mine. That guy must be dealt with first. Otherwise, it will bring us unexpected harm.”
A Yao thought for a while, and agreed: “Indeed.”
A-level plots are triggered by someone.
That guy must still be in the mine now.
Mo Feng guessed his plan, and said puzzled, “But why Xiaonan?”
Nan Jing also blinked, his expression seemed to say: What does this have to do with you wanting me to be a bait?
Ji Xun didn’t waste time, and explained directly: “In the previous situation, if you want to go through many monsters to go to the fourth floor of the crypt without a sound, the person from the black wolf group must have some hidden treasures on his body. It may be Some kind of ‘invisible’ relic. The number of people will not be many, there is a high probability that there will be only one person. And it is an assassin with extraordinary skills. Of course, if I guess correctly, it should be the tenth of the Black Wolf Group named ‘Alai’ Captain of the third team.”
After a pause, he directly explained the reason why he needed bait: “If that’s the case, if we want to deal with him, we must be surprised. Otherwise, an assassin lurking in the dark is a fatal threat to any of the four of us.” .”
After hearing this analysis, the three of Nan Jing were also stunned.
But you haven’t met, and you even know their name?
Ji Xun didn’t explain that he had paid attention to everyone who came in before.
After thinking about it for a while, the three of them also understood why he said he needed a bait.
The assassin lurking in the dark is missing, and there is no bait to expose him.
The assassin hidden in the dark is the nightmare of any card master of the same rank.
Just like the situation where Ji Xun killed the B-level disaster before, a clever assassin’s sneak attack can even pose a fatal threat to a higher-level card master.
Among the three, even Mo Feng, who was a black knight, didn’t feel sure that he would survive the sneak attack.
And the assassin has agility far superior to that of card masters of the same level, which makes it difficult for him to be caught even if he is exposed.
What’s more, there are also invisible treasures.
To deal with this hidden danger first, the idea of ”bait” is definitely the best choice.
Take the initiative to lure the assassin out, and then kill with one hit!
There must be risks when not baiting.
Mo Feng didn’t even think about it, and took the risky role: “Let me take this bait.”
I am the strongest in the team. There is no reason to hide behind my teammates in this kind of danger.
Hearing the words, Ji Xun also flatly refused: “You can’t be.”
Mo Feng also knew why he said that.
As long as the assassin is not in the water, there is a high probability that he will not choose to kill a heavy armored black knight as the first target.
Even if he took off his armor to lure the enemy, not only would it have no effect, but it would arouse the alertness of the assassin.
A Yao is not to be outdone: “I’ll do it.”
She looked at Ji Xun and said, “I’m a ranger, and there’s a high probability that I can find the trace of the assassin. I’ll be the bait and he will definitely find a way to kill me.”
The Ranger and the Assassin are both card masters of the [2 Fallen] path, and some professional skills even communicate with each other.
If the assassin wants to kill her, there is indeed a possibility of killing her first.
But Ji Xun still shook his head: “Maybe you can. But there are uncertainties. That guy may not be able to assassinate you immediately. Besides, he can miss, but we only have one chance. We must eliminate all uncertainties, Give that assassin a mandatory choice.”
Hearing this, the eyes of Mo Feng and the others froze, puzzled in their hearts: A must-choice for an assassin?
Ji Xun continued: “Also, no matter you and I are card disciples, being assassinated by a first-rank assassin is almost guaranteed to die. Therefore, the most suitable bait can only be Miss Nanjing. She is a doctor, or a formal curse Card Master, if the assassin knows, he will definitely kill her immediately.”
Which profession is the most important in the team?
black Knight?
Ranger?
Weak Chicken Gunner?
No!
Fighting in the wild must be a nanny.
Even if she is not the weakest one, the assassin will definitely kill the nanny first.
Only in this way can a team lose the ability to continue fighting.
Injury means attrition, serious injury means death.
Nan Jing instantly understood and said decisively, “Okay!”
But as she spoke, she glanced at Ji Xun from the corner of her eye.
Although the truth is such a truth, it always feels weird.
You proposed to use me as a bait, so you can’t be more tactful?
Normal in this situation, even if a man is inappropriate, he still has to show his attitude, right?
Like what Mo Feng did just now.
The psychic lady grumbled in her heart: Mr. Ji Xun is really too straightforward.
Ji Xun said so, although Mo Feng and A Yao wanted to play the dangerous task of “bait” for their companions, but there was nothing to say.
Although Mo Feng and the two felt that it was too untactful.
But they understand.
This kind of rationality that ordinary people can reach is also the most ideal attitude to deal with danger.
none of them!
There is no need for indecision on the battlefield.
They are sure that if Ji Xun thinks that he is the most suitable bait, then this guy will also be the bait without hesitation.
It’s like assassinating the B-level disaster before.
Obviously he is the Katu, and if he is touched by the werewolf leader, he will almost die.
But he did it without hesitation.
Because he knows very well that only he has the ability to sneak close to monsters and kill them quickly.
Otherwise, no matter whether the relic scalpel is in the hands of any of the other three, it is impossible to complete this plan.
Hesitation, indecision, worrying about your companions, worrying about yourself. These are superfluous.
He didn’t even mention the plan to others.
Silently went to execute.
Because he knows, he can only implement it.
Speaking out is not only wasting time and distracting teammates,
Meaningless.
This kind of absolutely rational judgment and decision-making ability seems to lack emotional smoothness, but it is a kind of great wisdom.
Mo Feng and A Yao looked at that guy again, and suddenly felt that it was not surprising that he had such an exaggerated puzzle-solving ability.
They seemed to see a strong conflict in Ji Xun.
It is clearly sane, but it hides a kind of crazy provocation to death.
All kinds of behaviors are betting on his life that he will not make mistakes.
This is an almost hysterical conceit.
Sane, conceited, crazy, and maverick.
Really special.
The first-generation werewolf infected body hidden in Townsend Town has been dispatched, and now it is not as safe outside as in the mine.
And because most of the werewolves in the mine were cleaned up before, there is no need to worry about sneak attacks from all directions.
Occasionally, one or two fish that slip through the net can be easily killed.
The four went down like this.
Soon came to the second floor of the mine.
Ji Xun was not sure when the assassin would strike.
So he and the decoy got into character early.
It was still Mo Feng and A Yao who opened the way ahead.
Nan Jing, the doctor, supported a wounded man pretending to be seriously injured.
Ji Xun was not too polite, he put his arms around Nan Jing’s neck, and almost half of his body was hung on her body.
It’s not that he took advantage of the ball-headed lady.
Instead, reduce her exposure to a fatal part.
Assassins usually use two techniques, “backstab” and “throat wiping”.
One stabs the heart, the other wipes the throat, deadly and swift.
Now that the neck is blocked by Ji Xun’s arm, the only way for the assassin is to backstab.
But Nam Kyung is now wearing a suit of inner armor, and has hidden a heart shield under the clothes on the back.
This will ensure that if she is attacked by surprise, she will not be fatal.
Occasionally she would give Ji Xun’s wound a will potion, exposing her as a “doctor” from time to time.
Ji Xun is a professional actor, so he doesn’t have any flaws.
And Nam Kyung has a pure heart, so he was not good at acting in the first place.
But she doesn’t seem to be pretending at the moment, but she is really caring and helping Ji Xun deal with the wound seriously.
As he walked, Ji Xun thought of something, and took out an equipment card with a seal and frost knight armor from the card slot, handed it to Nan Jing who was supporting him, and said, “You take this card. In case the monster is invincible at that time, you can put it on according to the situation.”
This is the armor of the Frost Knight.
The previous spoils Ji Xun were almost sold out, and only two sets of armor remained.
One set to wear by yourself.
There is another set that I want to keep and damage the matching parts.
This kind of well-forged heavy armor has excellent defense against monsters. Ji Xun feels that even if it is an A-level disaster, it is difficult for a pure physical attack to cause fatal damage in a short time.
Nan Jing, the psychic’s shortcoming, is his physical body.
Ji Xun doesn’t know what’s going on in that A-level plot,
However, it is predictable that the difficulty level of A-level disasters must be several times that of B-level disasters.
Giving her this armor is naturally life-saving.
Except for Mo Feng who was wearing heavy armor, no one could resist head-on.
As long as the A-level disaster cannot be killed in a short period of time, the [Slime Monster] barrier cannot last long.
Although for a psychic, once he puts on this kind of heavy armor, he can only wait for death in place.
Ji Xun felt that it was better than being dropped in seconds.
Nan Jing looked at the card Ji Xun handed over, a little surprised, blinked big eyes: “Ah, it’s for me?”
Ji Xun nodded: “Yes. You are a doctor, and if you are alive, the rest of the team can live as best as possible.”
Although he guessed the plot.
But the threat of A-level disasters is actually deadly.
Before he found the key to breaking the game, he felt that he might not be able to survive.
“oh.”
Nan Jing didn’t say much when he heard this, and didn’t quite understand it, but he instinctively took it and put it in his card slot.
Those scattered werewolves did not pose much threat to them. Soon, Ji Xun and the others arrived at the third floor of the mine smoothly.
It was still dark all around.
The dark elements are also more intense.
The quality of the ore here is obviously much higher, and there are more Mithril mines.
In those overturned mine carts, it is not difficult to find some ore worth tens of thousands.
Among the equipment scattered on the ground, occasionally some excellent equipment of black iron quality appeared.
This is a treasure trove for hunters.
But correspondingly, there are no small risks.
Originally there was a B-level calamity and some elite werewolves on this floor, and it was difficult for a large team to conquer it.
But now that they have been killed by Ji Xun and the others, it seems a bit empty.
In the information of the Black Wolf Group, there is no description of the third floor of the mine. Fortunately, there is a mine road to guide the way.
Mo Feng was in front, and the group of four continued to explore the depths.
Not long after, they saw a cave that was obviously not artificially mined on the third layer of base cloth.
There are gravels all around, like a landslide.
That thick dark element billowed out from this cave.
All four of them knew that this must be the way to the fourth floor of the mine.
They didn’t stay long, and walked in cautiously.
However, within a short time, the original mine turned into an underground tunnel with traces of artificial carvings.
In front of them, a stone step leading to deeper underground appeared.
The four of them realized that this was an ancient relic that was countless years earlier than the history of the mine.
Ji Xun walked all the way, observing the details on the corridor.
Then cleverly arranged booby traps.
Mo Feng’s flaming sword illuminated a corner of the cave, and the four of them walked down the steps slowly.
And they didn’t realize it at all, and a pair of eyes were quietly staring at them in the dark.
Walking and walking, Ji Xun spat out another mouthful of blood, and hurriedly said: “Xiao Nan, help me to see, my wound has started to hurt severely again.”
He has all weaknesses, as long as the assassin comes, he will inevitably burp with a single stab.
But as long as it becomes weak enough,
He was sure that guy would never waste an opportunity to kill a seriously wounded person first.
“Ah oh.”
Nan Jing was worried when he saw him vomiting blood.
But after thinking about it for a moment, I realized what it was, and then I came back to my senses. I quickly took out the potion and the healing card and dealt with it briefly.
This behavior and dialogue, her doctor’s profession is fully exposed.
Entering the fourth floor of the mine, Ji Xun collapsed on the body of the ball-headed lady. The scalpel was hidden in the right hand, and the whole arm was wrapped around the fair neck, so that no one had a chance to wipe his throat.
But in this posture, the two of them are inevitably too close, and there is a lot of skin contact when walking together with support, and they occasionally touch on the plump body.
Nan Jing’s neck was slightly hot.
Ji Xunke didn’t care about these at all.
Although he staggered like a seriously wounded person, his heart was like a cheetah ambushing his prey, concentrating on sensing his surroundings and waiting for an opportunity to move.
While walking, no one noticed, and some powder was scattered on the steps under his feet.
Not long after, the four of them had descended the stairs into a flat corridor.
Didn’t go far, and came across a T corner.
The four of them were several meters apart, and the light source mainly came from the flaming sword.
Mo Feng, who was in front, had just turned the corner, when the light in the corridor where the two people behind him were located instantly dimmed.
Ji Xun watched as his vision darkened, but his eyes suddenly shrank slightly, and he sneered in his heart: “Why don’t you do it?”
Although he didn’t find any trace of the assassin, he was sure that the other party was going to attack!
To sneak attack, there is no better opportunity than now.
as expected!
The assassin seized the best opportunity.
Without warning, there seemed to be slight waves in the air behind the two of Ji Xun.
A dagger with a restrained cold light silently pierced towards Nan Jing’s back heart!
Very sophisticated backstab technique.
Before no one could react, the sharp dagger pierced through Nan Jing’s clothes, and then plunged into it.
The assassin’s timing and skills were excellent.
This knife, normally speaking, the spell card master must die on the spot!
However, what he never expected was that the knife had just pierced through his clothes before encountering obstacles.
“Soft armor?”
Assassin Alai sneered in his heart, instinctively thinking that it is normal for the doctor to wear inner armor.
But my own dagger is a black iron dagger with armor-piercing entry, it cuts iron like mud!
The number of dead souls under the knife is unknown.
Immediately Alai exerted more force, but his face froze for a moment: What’s going on?
The tip of the knife is blocked by something.
Plate?
I have clearly observed it before. No, it is a breast shield!
In an instant, Assassin Alai suddenly realized that he might be plotted against.
As he expected.
Ji Xun suddenly exploded!
Sneak assassination, it is necessary to restrain all breath.
Even the power of the body protection mantra did not dare to be released easily.
The purpose is to kill with one blow.
The moment of exposure is also the most dangerous time for oneself.
Seeing the “wounded man” violently explode, the assassin Alai was sure that he had fallen into the trap prepared by these guys in advance, and cursed inwardly: Damn it, how did they find out?
How did you find him here.
How would he find out which one he would kill.
How can you guess the timing of the move.
Lots of questions.
How could he have guessed that the many choices he really thought were actually the only one left to him by Ji Xun!
Ji Xunzao expected that this guy would do it now.
Although it wasn’t until the dagger pierced into the back of Nanjing’s heart that he really realized that the assassin was coming.
But even this 0.01 second of prediction in advance is enough for him to make up for the agility gap between himself and the first-tier veteran assassin.
Ji Xun’s right hand was right on Nan Jing’s neck, and he stabbed it with a backhand at this position.
The first time he turned his head, he saw the translucent shadow in the air.
The assassin’s reaction was also extremely fast. Looking at the exposure, his body leaned back to the limit, and he had already avoided the range that Ji Xun’s knife could stab back.
However, things are not the same as Alai thought.
Ji Xun didn’t expect to kill him with a single blow, and he also estimated that his injury would not be critical.
so!
The trajectory of the knife turning around and stabbing suddenly turned downward from the aiming head, and pierced towards the translucent shadow’s thigh.
No matter what kind of backward movement, the force is from the waist.
But if you want to avoid danger with your upper body, you must definitely slow down with your lower body!
Ji Xun’s premeditated knife stabbed precisely on the thigh bone.
The sharp scalpel severed the leg bone without obstruction, and also severed a bunch of muscles in front of the femur.
If you want to deal with the assassin, if you are not sure of catching up, then first **** his legs!
Assassin Alai watched himself being stabbed, scared to death.
He didn’t care about other things, turned around and disappeared into the darkness, like a fish diving into the water, disappeared in an instant.
Ji Xun looked at the blood arrow shot by Biao, just about to make up the knife, when he turned his head, he found that the man had disappeared out of sight.
This is no ordinary stealth ability.
Ji Xun was not surprised at all, but sneered in his heart: “Is it really a relic-level equipment? Tsk tsk, the Black Wolf Group has really spent a lot of money.”
I have already thought of it before, without this kind of stealth ability, it is impossible for the assassin to come to the fourth floor quietly.
