MTL - Cataclysm King

Chapter 309: Diverting trouble to the east

a few minutes ago.

 The adventurer camp on the ground of the research institute.

The bonfire was still burning brightly, but there was deathly silence in the countless tents.

Looking carefully, the entire camp is full of shriveled corpses with mushrooms growing in them.

At this moment, Heman and a dozen or so surviving high-ranking officers began to stay in the legion commander's tent with black faces.

 Before entering the ruins, they left space coordinates on the ground just in case.

I didn’t expect to actually use it.

He even narrowly escaped with his life.

“It seems that those guys in Donghuang have already planned to lure us to the second floor of the research institute to trap us.”

"Yes. I'm afraid that the reason we came here is because the spy they planted deliberately spread the information, just to have enough people to sacrifice. Fortunately, Lord Thorne's space ability, otherwise all of us here would have died. Under the tentacles of the [Abyss Devil Leech Emperor]."

"Damn it! When the empire's void dragon ship arrives, I will be the vanguard and lead the troops to conquer the Eastern Wasteland!"

 “咚” “咚” “咚”.

The light of various law elements exploded like thousands of cannons.

Everyone in the Bai family cursed in their hearts.

“Thanks to Mrs. Heather’s mark, otherwise we would have been in big trouble. As long as that guy leaves that room, we can find them!”

 Whether it’s a trap or not, they have no choice.

Bai Wei thought of something, and suddenly glanced at Ji Xun who was imprisoned from the corner of his eye: It's that guy!

Those guys from the Hydralisk Legion were holding back their bad breath.

Hearing this, everyone in the tent was overjoyed.

unless

 Unless there are precise coordinates.

"found it!"

 A dark gold card in his hand collapsed, and a lightning-shaped crack in the void suddenly appeared.

At this moment, the people of the Bai family also understood everything.

 They were all prepared to face murderous traps.

Without any hesitation, the middle-aged man in the cloak who had been silent instantly transformed into a black dragon form.

 Everyone filed in.

 Accident?

 Surprise?

　　It was this group of damned Donghuang people who almost caused their entire army to be annihilated.

However, it was too late to come to his senses at this moment.

ˆ “.”

This time the Hydralisk Legion and hundreds of thousands of adventurers were completely wiped out. Not only was it a loss of face, but it was also a heavy loss.

 And it must be directly related to the "jar"!

This sealed place has super-level restrictions that interfere with the space. Under normal circumstances, even card masters who understand the laws of space cannot sense that there is this space underground.

Heman and the others looked at this mysterious sealed space with a little surprise.

“Heman, this time the entire Hydralisk army was wiped out, and the kingdom’s senior officials are to blame. I’m afraid you and I will not be able to escape the heavy responsibility.”

No one thought that a small Donghuang who didn't even have a seventh level could cause them to fall into such a big fight?

Just chatting.

Someone must have the space marks left by those guys from the Southern Continent.

In a blink of an eye, he looked at the stunned Bai family members again, and saw that the faces of the Hydralisk Legion were full of cold murderous intent.

Almost the moment the two sides came face to face, without any opening dialogue, dozens of various spell cards in both hands were fired towards each other.

 He was captured just now entirely on purpose, just to attract the enemy and divert the trouble eastward!

Now you know what despair is!

 Enemies are extremely jealous when they meet each other.

 Unexpectedly, I found the right place?

Looking at the tens of meters high pyramid in front of me, and then at the Xianjia statues around

 This is a sealing place with extremely high standards!

The members of the Bai family looked at the group of dragon-born card masters who came out of the cracks in the space, and their expressions were instantly awkward.

"damn it!"

"Don't talk about those useless things. Get ready now. You must not let those people run away."

 In a blink of an eye, we were on the third floor of the institute.

 In the tent, everyone was chatting away.

However, there are four seventh-level ones on the Hydralisk Legion side. Although the Bai family has a slight numerical advantage, the strongest ones are only the sixth-level legendary ones.

Everyone in Heman couldn't hide their excitement.

Suddenly, "Black Widow" Heather looked shocked and said in surprise: "Hey, the coordinates of that person appeared! It's two thousand meters underground!"

 The atmosphere is a bit dull.

"It's not just you, this mission is issued by the Holy See. If it is not completed, all of us here will be punished. But as long as we can find the 'spell pot', there is still a chance."

Moreover, they were caught off guard. When the two sides met for the first time, everyone in the Bai family vomited blood and collapsed.

 During the fierce battle, the Bai family members did not care about a certain prisoner and instantly gathered into a defensive formation.

Ji Xun, who had already expected it, adjusted his posture as much as possible to protect his vitals, waiting for the battle shock wave to hit his body, and his whole body to be ejected like a cannonball.

 A muffled sound of "dong".

 Smashed hard against the metal wall.

 “Pfft~”

Another mouthful of turbid blood spurted out, and Ji Xun felt a fatal pain as if a bull's horn had hit his heart, and he almost fainted.

 But then, the corner of his mouth cracked with a ferocious and excited arc: "Hey, he's not dead."

 The most dangerous moment in the whole plan is this moment.

 Only if he did not die in the first wave of conflict between the two sides, he would have a chance to watch the next drama.

 As seen on the design drawing, this sealed space has a large number of magic-forbidden spells to prevent pollution from leaking out. The rules and elements that the card master can call from the surrounding space are almost zero.

 So much so that the power of the dozens of spells just now is many times weaker than those released outside.

Although there are many uncontrollable risks in confined space battles, they are generally expected.

With the blessing of [Hero's Cloak], he seemed to have good luck, as several fatal injuries did not cause him to die suddenly on the spot.

This also gave Ji Xun the possibility of using the "Immortality Curse" to recover from his injuries.

same.

 The people of the Bai family did not suffer a big loss, also because of the forbidden magic field.

The Forbidden Demon Realm restricts everyone in this space.

 Normally speaking, the dragonborn card master has more mana power and has a crushing advantage in rank. It should be a one-sided situation.

but.

 This is the home of the Bai family.

  The conditions of the God Thief sequence are only a small part of their combat power.

 A larger portion of the combat power comes from the Immortal Family!

Almost at the moment when they faced each other and retreated, the Bai family, headed by Bai Wei, and more than a dozen people behind them all showed their respective contracted immortal families.

 Either one statue or several statues.

 Snake, insect, crow, fox, bear, tiger, crane

Either it is evil and strange, or it may be mighty and domineering, or it may be solemn and sacred.

Among the immortals who are gradually condensing their spiritual bodies, there are still a few that are as pale as smoke, but emit a faint golden light, exuding an indescribable ethereal feeling.

This is the top-level immortal family who just sacrificed more than 100,000 people and used the [Ten Thousand Immortal Lamps] to condense their spiritual bodies.

As soon as various immortal families appeared, the momentum of the Bai family suddenly surged.

 At the same time, they took out a spell card with the same pattern printed on it and poured it into it with spell power.

The [Secret Scroll of Immortal Dharma] in the leader's hand, Bai Wei, shone brightly, with a serious look on his face, and he shouted: "The Immortal Dharma, Ten Thousand Immortals Return to Their Place!"

In an instant, auspicious cloud-like mantra patterns condensed on the skin of more than a dozen people, and they suddenly became immortal.

More than a dozen people plus the auras of twenty or thirty immortals merged into one body, forming a terrifying posture.

 The momentum is not weaker than the seventh level opposite.

Ji Xun was shocked when he saw it: "A combined attack spell?"

I have always heard that the Bai family has many evil spells, but now that I have seen them, it is really eye-opening.

 Not only are the Xian family full of strange things, but the people of the Bai family also use a variety of spells.

 Many of them are very unpopular spells on the market.

 Conquering the undead, controlling insects, channeling beasts, and controlling plants.

The [God-Eating Insect] is like a sandstorm, the [Hellfire Vine] can melt steel, and the [Soul-Draining King] can inflict soul-crushing blows to human targets.

They are all extremely rare secret spells.

 But the power is not small.

 The Xian family has given the Bai family card masters higher combat power than their rank.

 The heritage that has been passed down for countless years has become their greatest reliance.

Ji Xun looked at the Bai family members who were blessed by the Immortal Family, and narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking: "Why does this Immortal Family's secret technique feel so similar to the 'Shenwei'?"

The members of the Bai family teamed up to use higher-ranking magical spells, which also gave them an aura that was similar to "divine power" and did not belong to mortals.

It is because of this aura that they did not fall behind at all under the pressure of Long Wei.

However, he was surprised. Ji Xun looked at it but his heart became even more stable. He murmured to himself: "Only the Bai family has the qualifications to lose both sides with those in the Southern Continent."

 Before, he was worried that the Bai family did not have the strength to confront the Hydralisk Legion head-on.

 At a glance now, I have it.

Heman and others looked at the group of Donghuang card masters from the Immortal Family in front of them, and realized that these were the descendants of the Bai family, the former god-stealers.

 All doubts have been cleared.

 This is the ancestral land of the Bai family. It is reasonable for them to set up such a situation.

 The two sides fought fiercely in this sealed space, completely ignoring Ji Xun who was hiding behind the statue in the corner.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

 The shock waves of the battle are getting higher and higher.

Even in the aftermath of the battle, Ji Xun almost died suddenly several times.

 The [Hero's Cloak] on his body was already cracked, and he did not dare to take it off.

Ji Xun lowered his breath while carefully observing every detail on the battlefield.

This is the first time Ji Xun has seen such a high-level battle.

 It is life-threatening, but it is also rewarding.

“You observe the ‘Immortal Technique·Insect Sea Sand Waterfall’, and your insect control skills +11”

“You are affected by the ‘Void Dragon’s Breath’, shock +1, you have touched a trace of the mystery of the law of space”

“You have been affected by ‘soul shock’, and your soul spell experience +33”

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　ody

 Inspiration keeps coming.

Ji Xun fell into that wonderful state of enlightenment.

 Almost both sides of the battle represent top experts in their respective professional fields.

Various rare spells and extraordinary abilities emerge one after another, like a living encyclopedia, displayed one by one.

 This is a wonderful learning opportunity.

 Even if you don’t die, you still have to learn.

Ji Xun observed very carefully.

  And the better you understand the enemy's methods, the greater the probability of subsequent survival.

 The fierce battle in the sealed space has been intense from the beginning.

 The two sides were going back and forth, and the fighting was extremely fierce.

After all, the overall rank of the Bai family is too different, and those immortal families who have re-condensed their spiritual bodies have not yet recovered, and their combat power is limited.

 As time went by, they also obviously fell into a disadvantage.

 But those in the Southern Continent also know that it is not easy to kill people like the Bai family.

 After all, they also saw those golden immortals.

In the top realm after the seventh level of extraordinary advancement, there is a qualitative leap in strength at each level. Those golden immortals were once top-level beings.

If you really want to drag it on and wait for them to absorb those sacrifices, their strength will become stronger and stronger.

Furthermore, there were also people in Heman’s group who were proficient in divination and prophecy.

 They have some bad premonitions at the moment.

I always feel that there is still a fatal threat hidden in this space.

 The people of the Bai family know this better.

  When the [Ten Thousand Immortal Lanterns] absorb the hundreds of thousands of sacrifices, or maybe they are lucky enough to awaken a certain ‘ancestral spirit immortal family’, they may not be able to deal with these enemies in the southern continent.

 But they know one thing better than the people in the Southern Continent, that is, the exchange of fire between the two sides was not accidental, but was deliberately designed.

 In addition to them, there is also a third party!

The people of the Bai family knew very well that if Ji Xun dared to attract the enemy here, even if both sides suffered losses, he would not be able to take advantage of it as a fourth-level person.

 There must be some means behind it.

Moreover, Ji Xun was able to come to the third floor of this research institute, which was full of doubts.

 If you delay it any longer, something unexpected may happen.

 After the confrontation, both sides realized that the problem must be solved as soon as possible.

so.

Since the opponent cannot be killed in a short period of time, achieving the goal becomes a top priority.

 Those people in the Southern Continent naturally also saw the pyramid in the center.

It is not difficult to guess that the jar they are looking for is most likely sealed in it.

At the same time as they were fighting, Heman and his group also set out to destroy the seal of the pyramid, hoping to grab this most important thing first.

 The seal's specifications are very high, and it would be almost impossible to destroy it.

But thousands of years have passed, the energy restricted by the seal has long since dissipated, and there is still a black dragon that can tear open cracks in space.

 “Click!”

 “Click!”

ˆ “.”

 There was a sharp sound like lightning exploding as the space was torn apart.

As the black dragon punched out one after another, the bricks and stones on the pyramid began to crack.

Ji Xun didn’t seem to be worried about pollution leakage at all.

Has encountered several jars, and the contamination from the alien gods that makes others angry when they hear it is not a big problem for him.

Moreover, since those guys in the Southern Continent dare to violently dismantle things like this, they must have some means to solve the hidden dangers.

Instead, Ji Xun looked at the black dragon that could tear apart space, and something else came to his mind: "The law of space is indeed a high-level law, so strong. Is that guy a Void Dragonborn? If he can really get out alive, if he can in the future It seems very good to get some void materials like this and use them as job transfer materials."

 Space Law is an excellent choice whether it is used to save one's life or to fight.

 Previously, because there were very few space materials, we almost didn’t consider it.

Now seeing this black dragon in the void, Ji Xun feels that there is a lot to look forward to.

 The battle between the two sides looked fierce, but Ji Xun also saw that they both wanted to leave.

 This situation is not surprising to him.

 If neither side can defeat the other, a stalemate is inevitable.

 Evacuation after the stalemate is also inevitable.

Even if he is unaware of the existence of Ji Xun, a "third-party force", the seventh-level card master's crisis sensing ability is extremely strong, so he must have noticed something.

 At this moment, there was a loud "dong" sound.

The black dragon finally smashed the brick wall of the pyramid with one punch, and through the cracks, the ordinary "spelled pottery pot" inside could be seen.

 Seeing this, both the people from the Bai family and those from the Southern Continent could not conceal their surprise.

 This is the first time for them to see this kind of jar.

But Ji Xun was very indifferent, not surprised at all. Instead, he murmured to himself: "The timing is just right."

 This is the fourth jar he has seen, nothing unusual.

 He even breathed a sigh of relief when he didn’t see the pollution prompt.

This is another most dangerous link, if the seal is broken, the contamination will affect everyone at once.

but.

It seems that this jar is not leaking?

Huh!

 That’s not right. Didn’t those research reports say that pollution leaked?

 Otherwise, we wouldn’t have such a large sealing tank.

 How can there be no pollution?

Ji Xun's mind was racing with thoughts, but he didn't hesitate in his hand. He crushed a card in his hand and sent a signal to Qin Rushi.

Almost instantly, several "dong dong" sounds that were obviously explosives were heard.

 The entire sealed space trembled violently.

The faces of the Bai family and those from the Southern Continent also changed as they all realized something: someone destroyed the passage to the research institute and wanted to lure the Leech Emperor down!

 This is Ji Xun’s Plan B.

 No matter who wins, he and Qin Rushi may not be able to escape pursuit.

 It is necessary to consume their effective combat power as much as possible.

Since both sides failed to defeat both sides, we have to use some foreign objects.

 The central control room has access control authority for the entire institute.

Ji Xun and Qin Ruzi had been tinkering inside for a long time before and had already discussed a strategy.

　　Opened the entrance guard on the third floor of the institute, and then used explosives to blast it, attracting the water and Leech Emperor from the second floor.

 This is Plan B.

Even though the structure of this institute is extremely solid, Ji Xun is proficient in architecture and engineering and has drawings.

 Precise directional blasting successfully opened multiple holes between the second and third floors.

 Almost at the same time as the explosion sounded, the sound of "clattering" water resounded throughout the space.

 The second floor of the institute was filled with a third floor.

 There are countless fluorescent bugs in the water.

 Seeing this scene, the expressions of everyone in the Bai family and the Hydralisk Legion all froze.

Ji Xun chose the timing of the blast very cleverly.

 It was only when the group of people from the Southern Continent saw the can, confirmed that the target was in front of them and were reluctant to leave, that they detonated it.

 He knew very well that finding the jar was a death order from the Holy See.

Now the Hydralisk Legion is almost completely wiped out, and the legion commander Heman and others are already guilty of death.

 Only finding the jar is their only hope of survival.

 So even if these guys die, there is absolutely no way they can watch the jars being taken away.

 Those people in the Bai family are even worse. They don’t have the ability to move in space.

Now that Emperor Leech is here, it’s up to him to see who can survive longer with his own tricks.
