MTL - Cataclysm King-Chapter 204 Death of Jia Yu

Chapter 204 Death of Jia Yu

  Nine Hell Knights covered in black flames charged towards their respective targets.

 The touch of weapons, the blast of spells, and the rolling of dragon's breath.

The huge mausoleum suddenly became lively.

 However, this is a very ideal situation for Ji Xun and the other three.

 Compared with the previous encounter with the fourth-level S-level Hell Knight who could severely damage Chujiu with one blow, the pressure on the three of them was much less when they faced off against their own clones of the same level.

 After all, the three of them are at the peak of their combat power at the same level.

Although Ji Xun and Jia Yu are both at the second level, one of them has an attribute value that is almost unmatched by anyone at the same level. One is suspected to be a member of the Thirteen Kamen Riders, and his methods are mysterious and unpredictable.

 It is very difficult to kill monsters within the second level.

Although Chujiu herself is only at the peak of the third level, her current level of demon elimination is extremely high, and it is difficult to imagine an enemy within the same level that can pose a threat to her.

 Although there is no hope of victory for a while.

 But in a short period of time, none of the three people's lives were in danger.

 In comparison, the situation of the others is not so good.

Although the nine people in the tomb are all facing clones of Hell Knights of the same level.

But this disaster is, after all, a monster created by the magic power of the strongest man in the human kingdom and the lord of **** a hundred years ago.

 Monsters include the First Paladin Martial Skills Comprehension, Dragonborn Body, Hellfire, and the Fall of the Gods.

 With these hardware blessings, this one is already considered invincible at the same level.

 The monster has also proven its strength with facts.

　　It was the first encounter with the charge of the disaster clone, and death appeared.

The third-level B-level demon leader [Two-Headed Dragon Lizard] was imprisoned by the secret technique of gravity on the spot and was unable to break free.

 Then he was shot through the chest by the Hell Knight and died suddenly on the spot.

Although the other two demon leaders were not dead, they were injured and were being chased in a state of embarrassment. Their chances of survival were extremely low.

Prince Sarn and Red Dragon Youen are both level 4, and their opponents are also level 4 S-level Hell Knights, and they face the greatest pressure.

 Fortunately, one knows the secret art of attracting the gods to fall, and the other is a dragonborn with the talent of hellfire. Both of them are partially resistant to the monster's ability, and they can hold on for a while.

Although the hunchbacked old man is at the third level, he possesses strange and powerful necromancy skills. He is also proficient in various Shinto secret arts, and he seems to have no sign of defeat.

 The battle in the underground cave became lively in an instant.

Ji Xun didn’t wonder about other people’s conditions.

Now the situation is roughly clear. The rule of this S-class disaster domain is to defeat the clone first.

 Either he or she will be killed.

 There is only one battle.

  Ji Xun’s transformed werewolf started fighting hand to hand with the Hell Knight.

 After drinking the water of the Holy Grail, his physical attributes on the data panel skyrocketed by about 5%.

At this moment, Ji Xun's combat status is at its peak.

 “Keng!”

 “Keng!”

 “Keng!”

ˆ “.”

 The sharp sound of metal interlacing occurred frequently.

Ji Xun was torn apart by that strange gravity, and his agility advantage was greatly limited.

The powerful body of a werewolf is like rotten wood under that level of attack, and will be injured upon contact.

  You can only be forced to use the [useless sword] to block frequently.

 Fortunately, I watched the battle of Prince Sarn before and learned a lot of skills with the two-handed sword.

 The skill panel shows the proficiency of [Intermediate Great Sword Specialization], which is considered easy to use.

And precisely because of this cataclysmic sword, he was able to block the deadly knight's spear many times.

 It is indeed a second-order S-level disaster!

Rao Shixun's physical attributes and combat power were already outrageous, but he was still beaten to the point where he was unable to fight back.

Even though they are both at the second level, the monster does not use any moves beyond the level, but with the blessing of Galen's fighting consciousness, there is no flaw in the fighting skills.

 Even if the same martial skill is used, the power is very different.

Ji Xun’s martial arts skills were his “first glimpse into the door”.

 Monsters are used to "reach the peak".

This kind of technical suppression meant that apart from being beaten, Ji Xun had no hope of taking advantage of him with his martial arts.

Not to mention that this monster is covered in dragon scales and hellfire, and is almost invincible against both physical and demonic defenses.

 He could not think of any method that could cause effective damage to this dragon-scaled **** knight in a short period of time.

However, having a strong opponent is not entirely a bad thing for Ji Xun.

 As long as he is not dead, this gap will become smaller and smaller.

 Because, the magic solution [JOKER] allows him to steal other people's martial arts!

 The longer the battle goes on, the less secret his opponent's various methods become in his eyes.

 While the battle is fierce, enlightenment is constantly being refreshed.

“Overpressure comprehension of ‘Fifty-two Demon God Forbidden Techniques: Leading the God to Fall’, Skill Comprehension +53”

“Overpressure Comprehension ‘Fifty-Two Demon God Forbidden Techniques: Leading the Gods to Fall’, Skill Comprehension +81”

"You have mastered the 'Knight Spear Nine Combos' in battle, and your proficiency is +244"

“You have mastered the ‘Fighting Qi and Fire Control’, and your proficiency is +188”

“Your enlightenment in battle, basic martial arts proficiency +985”

　　　

Ji Xun has already mastered the magic solution, and he was immersed in that mysterious state of learning from the first moment of the battle.

 The negative state of his body has been completely cleared, and his ability to comprehend has now reached its peak.

Ji Xun saw every move of the Hell Knight and had a photographic memory, which was immediately engraved in his heart.

 Perceptions are also improving all the time.

The martial arts skills that second-level knights can master are not very difficult. For Ji Xun's current understanding, he can almost understand them at a glance.

What is rare is the fighting consciousness of an epic hero.

This is a wonderful experience that Ji Xun has never had before against any opponent.

 While typing, I would feel a "flash of inspiration" from time to time.

 The use of skills in fighting seems to have opened a new door.

That feeling often makes Ji Xunhui lament during battles

 Oh, it turns out that this martial skill can be used in this way!

 The two sides kept fighting.

Ji Xun also figured out the various techniques mastered by this disaster.

Although he is still suppressed due to proficiency, once he knows himself and his enemy, this suppression effect becomes less and less obvious.

Moreover, the most important thing is the secret technique of "inducing the gods to fall"!

 When he was competing for the Holy Grail before, he was trapped in a quagmire-like gravitational field, and he still passively perceived it.

Now in actual combat, the Hell Knight demonstrated the epic hero Galen's "peak" proficiency in this magical and mysterious method.

 It was really an eye-opener for Ji Xun.

 When Ji found the [Power Gem Golden Ball] before, he only thought that this kind of gravity could increase the load.

Now I know that it is not just downward gravity, but also various kinds of directional gravity, and even the use of gravity to change the displacement of the target and interrupt certain spells.

 Coupled with some of your own martial arts, you can achieve some unexpected and wonderful effects.

 This secret technique is extremely profound.

Ji Xun was completely unaware of the evil nature of this secret technique at first, and then he was beaten so badly by monsters that he almost died several times.

 But also because of this ultra-high pressure, his progress in understanding the secret technique was several times faster than before.

 As long as there is no sudden death on the spot, it will be a protracted war.

Gradually, he mastered some of the essentials of this magical mysticism.

This feeling is like that of a peerless master who is proficient in this art and demonstrates step by step the various uses of the secret art in actual combat.

Through constant fierce fighting, this mysterious magic method gradually unveiled its mystery in Ji Xun's eyes.

 “Boom!”

There was another clash of guns and swords, with a sharp and ear-piercing sound.

Ji Xun looked at the **** hole on his shoulder, his expression not daring to relax at all.

In the fight just now, even though he was already very skilled in making blocking movements, he wanted to avoid the Hell Knight's [Heavy Stab] shot.

 But at that moment, the sudden change in gravity made the sword in his hand seem to be sucked away by a magnet, and the tilt angle of the sword body suddenly changed.

The knight's spear slipped past the sword body, and then stabbed the left shoulder.

Ji Xun quickly retreated and opened a distance, exhaled slightly, and sighed in his heart: "This monster has such a strong sense of combat. It can keenly detect such weak points."

 It’s not just him who can learn.

 After fighting a few more times, Ji Xun found that the monster was also familiar with his own moves.

But this is not because the monster has intelligence, but because of its fighting instinct.

Taking advantage of each move at first sight, a combat consciousness similar to muscle memory is formed.

 The epic hero’s fighting consciousness a hundred years ago was no worse than anyone else’s.

 This is what makes Ji Xun so dangerous.

 The moment he was injured, the wound on his shoulder glowed with green light, and he recovered in the blink of an eye.

If he hadn't mastered the magical mysterious method of "Immortality Curse", the injury just now would be equivalent to the loss of an arm, which would be enough to become a fatal flaw in the subsequent fights.

 He has suffered this serious injury seven or eight times.

That is to say,

Ji Xun's combat power is almost invincible at the second level, but normally he would have died seven or eight times when he encountered this Hell Knight.

"hey-hey."

However, the smile on Ji Xun's face was still bright.

 It was because of playing against such a top opponent that he felt the joy of wandering on the line of death.

 You cannot give it to an opponent who is too strong, and you cannot give it to an opponent who is too weak.

This kind of opponent is just right.

 It can be met but not sought.

 Even though he lost a lot of life, for Ji Xun, the gain outweighed the effort.

 He had no intention of cherishing his life at all.

 As long as he can live brilliantly, the restored life span will have meaning to him.

The only trouble is that if it continues to be used up, the power of the spell may not be able to sustain it.

 And this is also true.

It’s not that Ji Xun is not strong enough, it’s that the S-level disaster is outrageous.

At a glance from the corner of his eye, he saw that the corpses of two **** lords not far away had long been nailed to the wall, and blood was flowing all over the ground.

Even the two strongest level fours, Prince Sarn and Red Dragon Yuri, are covered in injuries at this moment and it seems they won’t last long.

There is no healing method like Ji Xun that can restore injuries at any time. Any injury is a weight that tilts the balance to the side of defeat.

Ji Xun was fighting while observing his surroundings.

Except for the two fourth-level ones, Chujiu's side was still strong. Her elemental body could hardly hurt her at the same level, and she and the monster clone were also in a stalemate.

The mushroom-headed Jia Yu was not affected by the gravitational field and looked at various awkward movements, but he was not seriously injured.

 Hunchbacked Old Duan himself was proficient in all kinds of necromancy secrets. He didn’t know what secret method he used, but a tombstone appeared next to him. The Hell Knight has killed him several times, but this guy is still alive and kicking.

The few people who are still alive are all top masters of different levels and all have life-saving trump cards.

 But everyone actually faced the same dilemma: they couldn't kill the S-level disaster at all!

 So, if you continue to waste it like this, sooner or later it will be a dead end.

Must think of other methods.

 After fighting for so long, Ji Xun is now a little more confident.

This hero Galen wanted to pass on the secret technique.

 Only those who have received the inheritance can get the Holy Grail.

 This is also the only breaking point he can think of.

 But it is not enough.

Ji Xun himself is not sure whether he can survive until then. He also looked around, wanting to see if he could find other breaking points.

 However, it was obvious that someone could not hold on longer than Ji Xun.

The fifth prince Sarn, who was wearing golden armor, was exhausted at the moment. There were cracks in the armor, his helmet was shattered, and his whole body was scorched.

Despite the battle, he seems to have deepened his understanding of magic and mysteries a lot.

 But the monster cannot be killed.

The injury that continues to worsen can no longer support him to continue playing.

 So, if this guy is not willing to die, he will definitely do something.

Ji Xun’s eyes have been fixed on this plot character from the beginning.

 Because his intuition told him that this Prince of Sarn might be a key plot mission in the "Third Holy Grail War".

After all, this "Battle of Ironforge" is just a small-scale battle in the early stages of the war, and the fight for the Holy Grail has just begun.

But now that this guy is here, he has found the Holy Grail.

If there were not adventurers like Ji Xun, it might be that he really took the Holy Grail, which would trigger a subsequent fight.

 Assuming this idea holds true,

 Then the problem arises.

How did Prince Sarn get the Holy Grail and get out alive?

“This guy should have some key clues, so he should take action.”

Ji Xun guessed this.

This place was found by Sarn. He may have a treasure map or something in his hand.

You haven’t revealed your methods before, maybe you want to use the hands of the Necromancer Knight to kill everyone who enters the tomb?

 But now seeing that several others are not dead yet, but he is about to die, if there is any hidden method, it is time to use it now.

 The facts were as Ji Xun expected.

While he was fighting, a dazzling light of fighting spirit suddenly erupted from the tomb.

The Prince of Sarn suddenly became violent.

He fought off the entangled monster, and then rushed straight to the pile of bones in palace robes beside the statue of the hero.

 I didn’t wait for everyone to understand what this was for.

This guy took out a scroll and spat a mouthful of blood on it.

As if it was some kind of psychic contract, the scroll exploded in an instant.

Then Ji Xun and the others saw that a group of souls appeared on the bones?

　　What the enlightenment shows is the [Guardian Spirit of the Royal Family of Delan]?

Prince Sarn sat next to the corpse with a tired look on his face, muttering something piously.

 A magical scene appeared.

The charging Hell Knight actually stopped and stopped chasing the guy.

 The case was solved.

When Ji Xun saw this scene, he suddenly thought: "So this is the method."

 He had guessed from the clothes of the corpse that it was a princess from the royal family of Delan.

Looking at it now, it is indeed the case.

 It seems that there should be a love story between this royal princess and the epic hero Galen a hundred years ago.

Although judging from the text on the tombstone, the princess was very dissatisfied with the royal family's practices.

And it seems that he died in love in this hero's mausoleum, sleeping with him.

 But after all, he is a descendant of her own blood, and once the contract comes out, she has to protect him.

 The princess chose shelter. The monster has the will of the hero Galen, so naturally it will not harm her blood descendants.

But this method can only be used by Sarn.

Ji Xun had noticed the bones before and guessed that they would be the key to the plot.

 But it’s best not to touch plot items that are too obvious.

 At least don’t be the first to touch.

It's like Chujiu was the first to get the Holy Grail, thanks to her strong ability to save her life.

 Had it been anyone else, he would have been shot to death by a monster.

 The same is true at first glance.

 Except for the royal bloodline, the guardian spirit will probably not protect others.

Indiscriminate touching may also trigger other negative consequences.

 “Now we’re in trouble.”

When Ji Xun saw this, his hope that the situation might be broken was shattered.

The method of Prince Sarn can only save him.

And looking at this situation, when this person recovers, even if the outsiders like Ji Xun who covet the Holy Grail are not killed by the monster, this prince will definitely come down and help kill them.

 Sudden changes made the situation more urgent than before.

 Prince Sarn found a chance to survive through a bug, and the battle among the others continued.

 While Ji Xun was fighting, other thoughts in his mind were also thinking rapidly.

 Tombstone, bones, statue, field.

 There are only a few known clues in the tomb.

"Since it is determined that this is a trial hero's test, it is definitely not just about relying on strength to defeat disasters, then what other conditions should be in place? The battle tests 'force', and the field represents 'inheritance'. The Holy Grail represents 'royalty', and the statue may represent 'justice' or 'human heroes'? So what do the bones represent, blood, family, and love?"

“No, the death of the hero Galen should be related to the royal family’s dishonorable methods. He may not have wanted to leave the Holy Grail to the Royal Family of Delan, otherwise he wouldn’t have hidden it in the mausoleum.”

 “What other conditions are needed?”

Ji Xun thought hard and meditated.

Since it is determined that this barrier is to screen the identity of the person who took away the Holy Grail, then the conditions for passing the level must be met by those screens.

 "Force" and "inheritance" should be determined.

 But if you want to meet these two conditions, you still have to defeat the disaster clone.

As for the "royal power" in the back, whoever can get the Holy Grail should be considered?

As for the "justice" represented by the statue, Ji Xun does not feel that he is satisfied.

 But if it represents "hero" and he has the title of "demon-slaying hero", maybe that's okay?

 But where are the princess’s bones?

 Such an important directional clue cannot possibly have no meaning.

While Ji Xun was thinking hard, the eyes of Prince Sarn not far away were also observing everyone present.

 He seemed to have almost recovered, and the murderous intent in his eyes gradually became more intense.

 There is not much time left for Ji Xun and the others.

No one here can withstand an S-level disaster clone, and a fourth-level knight who joins forces to kill him.

 The only good news is.

While typing, Ji Xun suddenly saw enlightenment: "You have understood 'Inciting the Fall of the Gods Lv0 (8/1000)'"

 “It’s done!”

Ji Xun was overjoyed when he saw Qi Di appear.

 Although his understanding of previous battles has become deeper and deeper, and he has been less and less affected by the domain, he is still far behind.

 At that moment, there was a sudden breakthrough.

The feeling is like learning to ride a bicycle, which has been shaky, but suddenly you find that delicate body balance point, and then you can ride against the wind.

Ji Xun feels great!

 It’s like you are a flame. If you are in a sea of ​​fire, the flame can no longer hurt you at all.

 At least not the second-level disaster in front of us!

At this moment, Ji Xun suddenly felt as light as a swallow, without the crushing feeling of fighting with a huge mountain on his back.

 Just as the enlightenment lit up, the Hell Knight rushed over again.

Ji Xun looked at the corner of his mouth and raised it slightly, and turned to the side easily!

　　Previously, I had to deal with it with all my strength, so as not to be seriously injured by the strange gravitational force that I didn’t know where it came from.

At this moment, he easily avoided the Hell Knight's charge.

Moreover, he could also slash the knight's horse's legs with a backhand knife, causing the disaster to fall to the ground!

 “Hahaha, it’s done!”

Ji Xun was overjoyed upon seeing this.

Although this knife did not cause any substantial damage to Calamity, the Hell Knight who fell to the ground stood up in the blink of an eye.

But this also means that this disaster is no longer a fatal threat to him.

And the most important thing is that when he comprehended this mysterious magic, the two conditions of "force" and "inheritance" have now been met!

but.

Ji Xun's excitement only lasted for a moment before he was overwhelmed.

 At the moment, he can deal with his second-level S disaster, but it has not changed the situation at all.

And the prince of Sarn obviously noticed his abnormality, and his eyes became darker.

 The secrets of the royal family were learned by others, and this person has become the person he must kill.

Ji Xun obviously knew this very well and was always on guard.

 But at this moment, a sudden change shocked people.

Ji Xun understood the mysterious magic technique of "inducing the gods to fall" and was no longer affected by the strange gravity.

Everyone alive here is a master, and they have all discovered this.

 However, it was almost at the same time.

 A figure suddenly rushed out.

The mushroom-headed Jia Yu, who had always been inconspicuous before, rushed straight to the Holy Grail and grabbed it!

 “What is this guy going to do?”

Ji Xun was also very surprised.

 If you get the Holy Grail, you will be attacked by monsters!

And the Holy Grail, doesn’t it also have the Holy Flame of Royal Power, which ordinary people can take?

Just when he thought that Jia Yu had probably seen through some key clues, and perhaps wanted to break the situation.

 The accident happened.

In full view of everyone, as soon as Jia Yu's hand touched the Holy Grail, a dazzling white light suddenly shone from the Holy Grail, and the flaming threads of royal power burned blazingly.

Just like the hunchbacked old man before, this mushroom-headed hand was burnt to a crisp in an instant.

 And that’s not all!

At the moment he touched the Holy Grail, a fourth-order S-level Hell Knight appeared out of thin air, stabbed Jia Yu in the chest with one shot, and pierced through.

Not everyone has the elemental body of Chujiu to save their lives.

This shot killed him on the spot.

The corpse was hanging in the middle of the knight's gun, and blood was flowing all over the ground.

 Seeing this scene, everyone present was astonished.

The worry and shock on the face of Prince Sarn in the distance instantly turned into a sneer. He thought he had met another guy who could ignore the sacred flame of royal power, but he didn't expect that he was just a clown.

Even Ji Xun's eyes widened when he looked at it: "Dead?"

 Looking at the extraordinary characteristics overflowing from the corpse, he confirmed that Jia Yu had become a corpse.

 But it was because he died so easily that Ji Xun found it incredible.

This guy seems to be a member of the "Thirteen Kamen Riders".

Such a top genius died like this?

Isn’t that too rash?

 Wrong!

Ji Xun always felt that something was wrong.

This reckless behavior is not the same person as he knew Jia Yu at all.

as if

This guy seems to be sending some message with this reckless behavior.

However,

 Before Ji Xun could think about it, something unexpected happened to him.

Seeing Jia Yu being killed, Chujiu didn't learn his lesson. He turned his eyes and rushed towards the Holy Grail as if he realized something!

Ji Xun looked at her behavior which was also incomprehensible, and his eyes suddenly shrank: "She also wants to grab the Holy Grail? What on earth is she going to do?"

 But at the same time, looking at the beautiful figure rushing away, the familiar tacit understanding came to my heart.

Ji Xun suddenly figured something out.

 That guy Jia Yu may have found the key to breaking the situation!
