Cataclysm King

Chapter 299 It’s not like I haven’t seen it before

Wallen City Ruins Camp.

The bonfire was burning brightly.

A group of sergeants from the Hydralisk Legion were warming themselves by the fire near the distorted light gate in the extradimensional space.

Counting the time, the last exploration is almost over.

Not far away, another team exploring space was ready.

There is pointing information that proves that some of the slaves in the space rebel camp "Warren City Rebel Camp" participated in the construction of the Mausoleum of King Augustus.

The top brass of the Red Dragon Kingdom issued a death order to get clues about the tomb.

So this space is definitely not to be missed.

But everyone knows that it will be very difficult to discover this kind of plot outside the main line.

In addition to slaves, the elite participation of the Hydralisk Legion is also required.

If Alice and the others came out alive, they would still be able to escape successfully.

The normal situation is that if a sergeant in the regiment clears the level, he will definitely come back to take credit.

On the other side, by the slave huts.

At this moment, everyone in the Hydralisk group realized that something was wrong.

Almost instantly, the news spread throughout the camp.

The disappearance of the extra-dimensional space means that there is a high probability that the level will be passed with an S-level evaluation.

The huge toad imprisoned in the black iron cage was also awakened by the silence.

But then he became happy.

At this moment, even Aragorn found it unbelievable.

But the fact is.

"Did someone pass the level with a high level of difficulty?"

Aragorn was also extremely emotional.

The mortality rate is very high.

"That guy really did it."

"Hey, it's not like the defeat in the last battle at Nugget Pier. Who knew those guys in Donghuang just blew up the pier. I guess the leader wanted to make up for it."

Just when everyone in the camp was curious about who had cleared the space, bad news came.

This period of time has been very damaging.

The disappearance of the entrance means that someone has opened up this extradimensional space.

Without warning, the twisted light gate suddenly disappeared.

"Yeah. I don't know how many more people will die. Last time, that guy Billy was drawn, and I don't know if he can survive."

Those who passed the customs disappeared without a trace.

I had met Ji Xun before, and it was just a glimmer of hope in despair.

Even from the "mysterious tent" that Ji Xun had been paying attention to before, a majestic bearded man in palace attire came out.

"It's really surprising. I don't know if Miss Alice survived."

"Yeah. Hey, look! The entrance to space has disappeared!"

No one returned to camp.

It wasn't just General Herman, the commander of the Hydralisk Legion, who came to check it out in person.

Even if the survivors are war slaves, they will be bound by collars and will never be able to escape.

The person who passed the customs showed no intention of showing up and disappeared out of thin air.

The sergeants looked downcast one by one, and whispered in groups.

It understands what's going on better than anyone else.

Everyone looked at the disappeared space entrance and were surprised for a moment.

It really worked.

The pair of round, bulging eyes that were originally lazy and distracted slowly focused, and expectations emerged.

Even if you have information provided by yourself, you will definitely need corresponding strength, wisdom and courage to try it.

Aragorn is a brave man who has experienced the S-level difficulty plot more than once. He also knows that the clearance rate of this difficulty is extremely low.

It really didn't expect that guy would be willing to take risks.

"Hey, it will take some time until the mercenaries and hunters from the empire come. I'm afraid our Hydralisks regiment will have to fight against this space."

"As long as you choose the city defense camp, you have a high chance of survival. But what the group leader means is that the clues about the city defense camp are of little value, and those who will be drawn later must choose the rebel camp. It is said that the rebel camp has started. It’s A-level difficulty, and the current mortality rate is 100%.”

Seeing this, the big toad in the iron cage finally breathed out a sigh of relief.

"."

That means they found the key.

Hahahaha

Aragorn smiled happily in his heart.

This is the happiest moment that I have ever had since being captured by the people of the Red Dragon Kingdom for so long.

In this way, it will feel at ease.

As for his own life and death, it is completely unimportant.

Just as he was thinking about it, there was loud shouting from the camp.

"Everyone, search for me! We must find the people who came out of the extra-dimensional space!"

"Calling out all the lists of people who have entered the space before!"

"Check it! Who has been in contact with that toad recently! Control all the people who have been in contact with it first, and I want to question them one by one!"

"."

Legion commander Herman was furious.

Only then did he realize that it was most likely that the toad had tampered with the exploration plan.

the other side.

In the dark ruins of the city, three figures were hiding in the darkness and escaping quietly.

They cleverly avoided all kinds of outposts and traps,

He ran all the way towards the depths of the ruins.

Ji Xun's lurking period was not just about gathering information.

He also knew all the terrain near the Valen ruins well.

Many retreat routes have been planned.

It can even be said unceremoniously that many of the early warning devices near the camp were installed by his disguised "Joel".

Now those arrangements come in handy.

Ji Xun led Alice and Allen to sneak together.

Without encountering any obstacles, the three of them successfully escaped from the Hydralisk Legion's defense circle.

By the time the enemy discovered them, they were already more than ten kilometers away.

Finally, the fire was no longer visible behind him.

In the dark wilderness, the three of them stopped, and then they dared to take a deep breath.

The cool wind blew on their faces, and Alice and Allen breathed the free air greedily.

Untying the slave collars made them truly feel alive.

In the past few months after being captured, the two of them had been living in fear. At this moment, they truly felt the ultimate joy of regaining their freedom.

The crisis is over.

Alice also didn't forget who saved them.

She bowed gracefully to Ji Xun and said, "Thank you so much. Mr. Ji Xun, you saved our lives."

As if to show her sincerity, she directly revealed her biggest secret: "Reintroduction, I used to be the princess of the Red Dragon Kingdom, Alice Talis. Now I am a member of the Rebel Dragon Army."

"."

Ji Xun had actually seen it in the space before. Alice had an elegant temperament that was completely different from that of the common people.

Even if she tried her best to hide it, the elegance she occasionally showed in her gestures indicated that her status was extraordinary.

Ji Xun also realized why he thought Alice knew a lot before.

This kind of insight is not something ordinary people can compare with.

It turned out to be the princess of the three kingdoms.

No wonder.

It makes sense that she is a princess.

But what surprised Ji Xun was.

The princess of the Red Dragon Kingdom?

The Hydralisk Legion is the vanguard of the Red Dragon Kingdom. How could Alice, a princess, become a slave?

Of course, Alice also knew that Ji Xun would be confused, and explained: "My identity is a bit special. I am a dragonborn, and a 'pure blood'. Normally, I should be a sacrifice to the dragon." But I probably inherited my mother's [Witch] bloodline, and my human bloodline suppressed the dragon bloodline. This made me a 'taboo' in the Irel Empire. There are some ancient secrets involved in this, and I am currently unable to do so. I can’t tell, but the Holy See has been hunting people like me. Later, I was imprisoned. Later, I met Mr. Aragon, and he took me away from the royal city. I gained my freedom and joined the Dragon Rebellion. military"

The story is very long, but she only picked out some important ones.

As she said that, she looked at Ji Xun with an extremely sincere look and said: "You may not know my identity and what the 'Rebel Dragon Army' means, but if you want to hear it, I can give it to you slowly. explain."

There is nothing to hide about his savior.

If the other party really wants to be taboo, she also expresses her understanding.

"Ah."

Ji Xun responded with a kind smile.

He also knew that Alice had stated her identity in advance because she was afraid that this identity would cause some misunderstandings.

He chose to cooperate with Toad because of this information.

However, it was not that Ji Xun was completely unaware of the situation in the Airel Empire, but he had already learned a lot in more than a month.

But he personally wanted to know, just to satisfy his curiosity.

There are other people who really need strategic intelligence.

"I have talked with Mr. Aragon before. I need some information, and there may be some cooperation in the future. I will take you to see a friend of mine. She will have a good talk with you."

"it is good!"

The three of them walked and talked all the way.

The most common topic they talked about was some extraordinary knowledge that Ji Xun was curious about.

For example, the missing fifty-two sequences in the Eastern Continent, the forbidden magic of the devil, and some chronological history of the Talon Dynasty three thousand years ago.

Ji Xun has a photographic memory. He has read too many classics and accumulated a wealth of knowledge.

And because Alice is the princess of the Red Dragon Kingdom and a [Witch], she has loved spending time in the royal library since she was a child.

Both were surprised by the other's knowledge.

There are many topics to talk about,

The more we chatted, the more speculative we became.

As for whether Alice is a Dragonborn or not, it doesn't matter to Ji Xun.

As long as they are not enemies.

The atmosphere of the chat gradually became more relaxed.

Alice was also worried about Aragorn's safety, but Ji Xun knew that even if the toad was exposed, the Hydralisk Legion would not dare to kill it.

After all, only the toad can sense the existence of the "jar".

Ji Xun already has a plan to rescue it.

But not at this sensitive node.

Wait, the timing will be better.

The motorcycle is not difficult to control.

Especially for the two Alices who can usually travel on dragons, it is even easier.

The three of them walked instead of riding bicycles. After riding for two days, they finally arrived at their destination.

This is a dark and lightless ancient ruins.

It looks like an abandoned village.

There was a light mist all around.

There is also a dilapidated old castle on the cliff in the distance.

The branches are like iron, and there are a few strange birds standing on the branches, calling "quack" from time to time.

Ji Xun observed his surroundings.

If he hadn't been sure that this was the coordinates agreed upon by Catalina, he really wouldn't have noticed any traces of living people here.

Alice and Allen on the side also looked around alertly.

They are now also full of curiosity about the Donghuang card master they are about to meet.

After all, after meeting Ji Xun, the people in Donghuang left a deep impression on the two of them, wondering whether the people there were special.

Not long after, several figures came out of the mist.

Ji Xun looked at the familiar figure and took the initiative to say hello: "Miss Carter, long time no see."

The leader opened his cloak, revealing a delicate face and long golden hair. He smiled gracefully and greeted, "Ji Xun, long time no see."

Behind her were several important ministers and confidants of the Lionheart family.

It can be seen that the Lionheart family attaches great importance to this meeting.

With that said, Ji Xun introduced Alice and Allen beside him.

He originally thought he needed to translate it himself, but unexpectedly, as soon as he was introduced, Catalina said enthusiastically: "Miss Alice, welcome you and your friends."

He spoke fluent Talungu.

Only then did Ji Xun realize that not only was he improving during this period, but others were also trying to understand the powerful and unknown enemy.

Alice was slightly surprised when she saw Catalina for the first time.

She didn't expect that the person in charge of the Eastern Continent was so young and so beautiful.

But she responded politely: "It's an honor."

Catalina has a very relatable personality.

Even if it's the first time they meet, she treats her like a guest and makes people feel friendly like a friend.

She looked at Alice with her eyes and praised without hesitation: "Ji Xun is right, Miss Alice is really beautiful~" Alice felt the kindness and responded: "Miss Carter is joking. You are the one It’s absolutely beautiful.”

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Catalina signaled again: "Sorry, please come to the castle. The situation is special and the environment is a bit rough. Please don't take offense to Miss Alice."

Alice didn't care at all: "Of course not. Our dragon rebel camps are almost all like this."

Although the Eastern Continent and the Southern Continent have been separated for thousands of years, they have inherited the ancient court etiquette of the Tarun royal family, and both women behaved gracefully.

After meeting, the few people walked towards the castle.

Alice was also very surprised.

She knows how to read minds and can sense the kindness and malice of others.

He originally thought it would be a formal and awkward alliance meeting.

Unexpectedly, when I met this young lady from the Lionheart family, a few words made the atmosphere less tense.

Alice's first impression of Catalina was very favorable.

This is a wise and courageous leader.

But she was a guest after all, and she was only familiar with Ji Xun.

So we walked behind together.

Alice was also curious: "Mr. Ji Xun, is Miss Carter yours?"

It seems like gossip,

But actually this issue is very important.

It’s about future cooperation.

Can she trust her savior?

But you may not be able to trust others.

Ji Xun also knew why she asked this question, and said with certainty: "A trustworthy friend."

Alice smiled knowingly: "Oh."

In front, Catalina listened, the corners of her mouth raised slightly.

The forces that came to the Old Continent from the Card Master Federation in the Eastern Continent, led by the Lionheart Family, are now called the "Alliance Army."

The arrival of Alice and Alan was kept secret.

Only a few coalition leaders knew.

But even so, the arrival of the two people caused a stir.

Now the Alliance Army is no match for the Eirel Empire in the Southern Continent on the frontal battlefield.

In addition to their lack of strength, the most important thing is that they know almost nothing about their enemies.

Although some prisoners were captured at a great cost, the information obtained was very limited.

But the more this situation is,

The Allies must grasp the enemy's intelligence as soon as possible.

So that in the subsequent all-out war, some initiative can be grasped.

Therefore, in the recent guerrilla warfare, the Alliance Army has taken the initiative.

But they were retreating steadily and suffered heavy casualties.

However, at the darkest moment, the turning point came very suddenly.

Timely and lucky.

Even Catalina didn't expect that they were still arranging spies to infiltrate the enemy's army, and they were already prepared to pay a huge price in exchange for information.

Unexpectedly, one communication from one person changed the rhythm of the war.

Their espionage personnel are still in training, and Ji Xun has already brought back reliable and detailed intelligence.

you could put it that way,

Ji Xun alone will do the work of the entire intelligence system for the next few years.

That intelligence meant countless lives were saved.

The two key figures brought back by Ji Xun not only know detailed information about the Southern Continent, but also a lot of super-level knowledge and historical secrets about the Old Continent.

This is vital and urgently needed information for the Allies.

The most important thing is that behind Alice and the two are the "Rebel Dragon Army"!

This is a powerful ally.

The ruined bunker underground.

This is a secret stronghold of the Lionheart family.

For safety reasons, there are no luxurious buildings around.

The living conditions in the bunker are also simple.

But after Catalina learned the identity of Princess Alice from Ji Xun, she also held a welcome dinner for the distinguished guests under limited conditions, with only the top commanders participating.

Ji Xun was not interested in dinner or anything like that.

But this is a necessary etiquette in upper class society.

Alice and Alan also felt the kindness and enthusiasm, and both the host and the guest were happy.

There is no need to worry about information. The two of them will stay in the Alliance Army as guests for a long time to come.

Moreover, Alice and Allen have suffered enough in the slave camp during this period. They have been traveling all the way for the past two days and now they also need to rest.

After the dinner, the two went back to their room to rest early.

In the banquet hall, everyone dispersed.

There were no outsiders, Catalina and Ji Xun were chatting while eating.

"Ji Xun, I find that every time I meet you, you bring me surprises."

"hehe."

"If it's not urgent, how many more days can we stay?"

"Probably leaving. I have some things to do."

"Oh."

The table is filled with red, green, and yellow fruits of various colors; there are also golden and oily roast chickens, crispy suckling pigs, and sauce-flavored barbecued meats.

Although the environment is a bit rough, the chefs are all aristocratic chefs, and the food tastes impeccable.

Ji Xun has been eating marching rations with the Hydralisk Legion recently until he almost vomited.

It was rare that he ate so much exquisite food with gusto.

Opposite, the firelight on the candlestick swayed slightly, reflecting a beautiful face.

Catalina, who was dressed up in a feast, elegantly cut off a piece of food with a knife and put it in her mouth, chewing it slowly.

"You helped me a lot this time. I don't know how to thank you enough."

"."

Ji Xun smiled nonchalantly.

The two of them were in danger of life and death, and they were not the kind of friends who needed to be polite.

Catalina just muttered and did not continue to raise the topic.

She said in a very calm tone: "The last battle at the Nugget Pier, I almost died."

Ji Xun glanced at her: "."

Catalina was very calm, but thought of what it was, and said, "By the way, do you still remember when we last met, you asked me to invite you to drink?"

Ji Xundao: "Remember."

Catalina suddenly raised her wine glass and smiled: "Have a drink?"

As she spoke, she added with emotion: "I don't know if we can drink together like this next time."

War is always cruel.

Especially this war with great disparity in strength.

No one can guarantee that they will survive to the end.

When Ji Xun heard this, a strange look flashed across his eyes, and then he calmed down and raised his glasses: "Cheers."

The beautiful and melodious music is still playing in my ears.

The two had a few drinks.

The atmosphere is like old friends, slightly tipsy, just right.

Catalina suddenly became interested and suggested: "How about dancing with me?"

Ji Xun glanced at her and said with a smile, "Why are you suddenly interested?"

Catalina seemed to have thought of something, and complained with a smile: "Do you still remember that you invited me to dance several times before, and you came with a purpose? That time at Rose Manor, and that time at Cao's house, they were all to get information. . At that time, I said, next time, could your purpose be more pure and invite me to dance?”

Ji Xun remembered this.

Looking back, this is indeed the case. At the Rose Manor, when I was still an undercover agent of the Silver Moon Sect, I purposefully invited Catalina to dance the first dance.

The next few times were similar.

Thinking that the other party was interested, Ji Xun also stood up and bowed in a gentlemanly manner to invite: "Am I honored to invite the beautiful Miss Carter to dance?"

Hearing this, Catalina raised her slender neck like a swan, stretched out her slender hands, and happily agreed: "Of course. It's also my honor~"

There were only two people in the room.

They danced with light steps.

Ji Xun also found this state very relaxing.

Jumping and chatting.

"By the way, what's going on here recently?"

"Over in the Eastern Continent, the Federal Parliament has completely ceased to exist, and the Oran royal family has been restored. It is said that the new King of Oran, Arthur, has successfully entered the seventh level and led his four knights to sweep through the major families in the Parliament. The Bai family has also become the high priest. "

"Oh?"

"The good news is that after this restoration, the Oran royal family finally realized the crisis and made public the royal secrets that had been sealed for three thousand years. As long as you are loyal to the royal family, you can get the inheritance of the super card master. However, Donghuang's high The level resources are too scarce, even with those inheritances, it is difficult to make a breakthrough."

"The new king of Oran is also very ambitious and doesn't want to be trapped in the Eastern Wasteland. I guess that after he integrates the major forces in the Federation, he will definitely find a way to come to the Old Continent. After all, I am already a member of the Alliance Army. Discovered the hidden clues and secrets laid by the Oran royal family in advance."

"The Oran royal family seems to be conducting a secret operation. They are looking for some ancient inheritance of the Talon dynasty. My people found some of their hunting teams deep in the ruins. I don't know what they are looking for."

"."

There were no surprises in the restoration of the Oran Royal Court in Ji Xun.

This is what Jia Yu had already deduced before.

At present, there is a powerful enemy, and several major families in the federation are unable to deal with it, so they must need a leader.

The strength of the Oran Royal Court is unrivaled in the Eastern Wasteland, and restoration is inevitable.

Moreover, the Augustus royal family was, after all, a descendant of the Talon royal family three thousand years ago. They had secret information about the Old World that no one else could imagine, so they would not be trapped in the Eastern Wasteland.

The exile has been laid out for two hundred years, and some of the methods are normal.

When Ji Xun listened to the news in the Eastern Continent during this period, he didn't find it strange. Instead, he felt that this complicated situation was getting more and more lively.

Good.

The dance music was light and as gentle as the atmosphere in the room.

Ji Xun very gentlemanly put his arms around Catalina's tender waist and danced.

The two were close to each other, and he could clearly feel the vigorous heartbeat in the other's chest.

Catalina was half a head shorter than Ji Xun, and she had a pretty face right in front of her.

Suddenly, Ji Xun discovered something: "Hey, your 'qi' is very special."

Catalina's arrogant expression, which she only showed to her friends, seemed to be saying: You just discovered it.

She smiled and said: "Senior Gong Wu taught me."

Ji Xun was surprised: "Huh?"

Catalina seemed to anticipate his expression and said: "After we met at the Nugget Pier last time. Senior Gong said that I have good talent and gave me some pointers."

"Oh."

Ji Xun suddenly realized when he heard this.

Although Katarina is not a hero, she has condensed the destiny of a hero.

It's normal for Gong Wu to be interested in giving advice.

Catalina still had a slight smile on her face: "Senior also said that if I learn how to do it in the future, I will beat you up."

"."

Ji Xun rolled his eyes.

However, upon closer inspection, Catalina has indeed changed a lot, and her strength has become visibly stronger.

However, when he lowered his head and glanced down, besides seeing Qi, Ji Xun also saw a piece of white pride.

Because the distance is very close, you can see clearly.

As gentle as jade.

Catalina wore a low-cut golden palace dress today, with layers of lace and silk skirts that were as light and elegant as clouds.

This is a dress that suits her temperament very well.

It vividly displays the youthful and graceful figure and the charming but sexy sex.

Originally this glance was nothing.

There is no need to avoid taboos about the relationship between the two.

He restrained himself and pretended it didn't happen.

However, Catalina caught Ji Xun's gaze, a playful smile flashed across her crystal eyes, and she took the initiative to tease: "Hey, do you know how to avoid it now?"

The tone seemed to say that there were times when it was cooler than this before, but he didn't look at it at all.

Ji Xun heard this and glanced at her.

Catalina raised her snow-white neck, her eyes were clear and crystal clear, and she said again in a nonchalant tone: "It's not like you haven't seen it before. If you want to see it, just feel free to see it."

"."

Ji Xun was speechless for a moment after hearing these words of approval.

Thinking about it, it seems like I have seen it many times.

It happened that the rhythm of the dance music changed at this time, and the film fell into a gentle and soft mood.

Under the bright lights, Catalina's pretty face wore a bright smile like a victorious general.

She happily stepped on the dance drums and spun in circles.

At this moment, she was elegant, beautiful, and generous.

PS. There is a picture, Catalina in palace dress (waiting for review).jpg
