MTL - Cataclysm King-Chapter 239 Insider

Chapter 239 The Ghost

Ji Xun didn't want to let others know that his injury was not serious, so he didn't let the doctor handle it.

 I took the medicine and gauze myself and dealt with it briefly.

Song Yu happened to have some medical knowledge, so he helped.

 The two of them were chatting while dealing with their injuries.

Song Yu looked at the wound and realized that the body in front of him was ridiculously strong.

 The toughness of skin, muscles, and bones is exaggerated to the naked eye.

This is simply not something a weak gunner can possess.

But she was smart enough not to speak directly. Instead, she blinked her watery eyes and said, "Thank you, Mr. Ji Xun, for saving me again. You are really amazing."

"hehe."

Ji Xun heard the underlying meaning of the girl's words and smiled without saying a word.

 Save means to save.

However, the matter is not over yet.

 Now that Captain Sam is seriously injured, after this chaos, it is the best opportunity for assassination.

If there is really a mole, now is the time to reveal his face.

Just as I was thinking about it, there were footsteps outside the door.

 It sounded like the sound of high heels stepping on the wooden board. The weight was not light and the steps were frivolous.

 There is another person who walks lightly and steadily and is a master.

Before anyone arrived, the duck-like voice came through the door: "Hey, my dear niece, are you okay?"

When Ji Xun heard this, he quietly disappeared into the light and shadow.

Song Yu also guessed his intention and tidied up the scene.

 The danger is far from over.

As soon as Mrs. Mela came in, her shrewd little eyes looked at the room.

 Looking at the medicine box that Song Yu was packing, her eyes darkened instantly.

Her fat hand also quietly placed on the handbag, and asked: "Xiaoyu, what happened? Oh, I heard that the assassin is here again?"

Song Yu looked at the fat woman who had arrived late, and said without wanting to explain, "Auntie, everything is fine. You should go and have a rest early."

 “How can I sleep!”

The fat woman looked frightened and patted her chest: "It's so scary. I think we have to leave this **** country as soon as possible. Also, I've said it a long time ago, don't let some weird strangers Stay in the Chamber of Commerce. Promise aunt that we will leave tomorrow, okay?"

 The events that happened one after another today made her feel a great sense of crisis.

 It’s not just about life safety.

There are also things that seem to be out of control.

 She wants to bring the person back before things get out of control.

ˆ “.”

Song Yu didn't want to defend himself, but for some reason, he felt very irritated today when he heard these obviously concerned words.

 It is definitely not possible to walk.

Not to mention that the handover process of the Machinery City has not been completed yet, all the efforts will be wasted if we leave.

Even if you really want to leave, if you are being targeted now, there is a high probability that you will not be able to return home alive.

Mrs. Mela looked at Song Yu and didn't reply. Instead, she looked thoughtful and asked, "Tell my aunt, who is that 'Chaoyang'? When did you know each other?"

 Let’s forget about eating until midnight.

As for the killer's attack before, according to the guards, when they rushed into the room for the first time, they saw that the guy named "Chaoyang" was already in the room.

What can a man and a woman alone do in the room in the middle of the night?

 What can you do?

 She is someone who has been here before.

Song Yu listened to his aunt's suspicious tone and knew what she was thinking, but he couldn't explain it. His cheeks turned slightly red and he simply said: "He is my friend."

Seeing this expression, Mrs. Mela became even more unhappy and said: "Xiaoyu, I think the Mike that my aunt introduced to you last time is handsome and talented. He may inherit the title of earl in the future, and he will be a proper high-ranking noble." .You are still young, so don’t be deceived by the rhetoric of some outsiders who don’t know where they come from.”

Song Yu responded: "Auntie, there are no hereditary nobles in the Federation anymore. Those families in the old era are just trying to put money on their faces."

Hearing this, she instinctively wanted to defend herself: "Besides, Mr. Chaoyang is a very nice person."

Mrs. Mela said disdainfully: "Okay? I see, that is simply a liar."

But before he finished speaking, he saw a figure slowly stand up in the darkness and sneered: "Madam, are you talking about me?"

"you"

Mrs. Mela looked embarrassed for a moment when she saw a man suddenly appear in the room. Where did this guy come from?

 Soon he was filled with anger.

Whether it was really a secret guard sent by the old master, a servant actually eavesdropped on his master's conversation?

Ji Xun originally didn’t want to care about other people’s housework.

　　No matter how Mrs. Mela slanders her behind her back, this is a family matter of the Song family.

 He just thought those tricks were ridiculous.

However, just now, while Ji Xun was listening, an inexplicable revelation suddenly appeared: "You are immune to the persistent negative mental spell erosion 'Dream Weaver Instigation'."

 This is outrageous.

 Good conversation, where does the spiritual spell come from?

Although Ji Xun is not wearing a clown mask.

 But his mental strength has already reached a very high level now.

Since he last spent two months in the highly mentally polluted environment of Shangbang Prison, his mental power has increased several times, reaching an astonishing "111.5".

This value is even higher than the mental power of most third-level magic card masters.

Furthermore, one of the most prominent functions of the secret visualization technique "Songyue Shenxiang" learned from undercover members of the Silver Moon Sect is that it can exempt people from various negative mental states.

Although Ji Xun is not good at spiritual mysticism, he is not ignorant of it.

So in the sound wave just now, he caught the fluctuation of mental pollution after listening for a while, and he was exempted from the spell, and there was a hint of enlightenment.

 Then the problem arises.

Mrs. Mela seems to have short-term concerns. Is this the right time to use this cautious spell to instigate Song Yu?

 This is interesting.

 Instigation is "brainwashing" and "PUA".

If you cannot detect this spell, you will subconsciously feel that she is right.

 Over time, some perceptions may even change.

Ji Xun also instantly saw through Mrs. Mela's intention.

 Instigation can be more effective than killing.

  It is completely possible to get a "puppet" who obeys your words.

 The internal fighting methods of the big family are indeed not ordinary.

 But at the same time, he was also very confused: "So, the fat woman shouldn't be the one who paid for the murder. What about the guard at the door?"

This Mrs. Mela is a little smart, but not a big one.

 Since she used instigation, she had no motive to pay for the murder.

Moreover, when Song Yu dies in the future, traces of mental pollution may not be able to be investigated by experts.

Such a directional clue may be directly regarded as a "murderer".

 So, the real mastermind behind this is not Mrs. Mela.

Thinking of this, Ji Xun walked out.

Looking at Ji Xun walking out, Song Yu was still in a daze, but suddenly he woke up and said, "You"

I thought the topic was hard to explain at first, but now that people have come out, it’s even harder to explain.

Mrs. Mela was also full of hostility. She snorted coldly and said displeasedly: "Who are you, and why are you hiding in the house secretly?"

In this world with strong class concepts, except for her and Song Yu who are the masters in the chamber of commerce, everyone else is a low-level servant.

How can any servant dare to talk to his master like this?

Ji Xun was not used to this fat woman, and directly exposed her background: "You used 'spiritual instigation' on Miss Song, and you still said that I was a liar?"

When Mrs. Mela heard this, a flash of panic flashed across her eyes.

 But she still pretended to be calm and used rage to cover up her panic: "What are you talking about!"

 Spiritual instigation is not a panacea.

 It's like a dream that cannot be awakened.

 As soon as she woke up, she immediately knew that the dream she had weaved was full of flaws.

Especially when certain perceptions are exposed before they are reversed, all previous efforts are wasted.

 This is also the reason why Ji Xun chose to expose it in public.

Only this huge information impact can wake Song Yu up with a hammer.

 “Instigation?”

 The fact was just as he thought. Song Yu on the side felt like he was struck by lightning when he heard this.

Countless contradictory thoughts collided in my mind, and my mind became dizzy for a moment.

 But because the conflict was too strong, Ji Xun's words were like a needle pricking her, causing her to suddenly wake up.

Song Yu came back to his senses and realized many problems. He looked at Mrs. Mela and still couldn't believe it: "Auntie, what did you do to me?"

“I don’t know what he’s talking about! Oh my God, you wouldn’t believe an outsider doubting your own aunt, would you?”

Although Mrs. Mela was still speaking harshly, her behavior had already betrayed her. She kept shouting: "Guard! Where is the guard! Why are all these weird people coming into the master's room?"

Seeing that things were about to be exposed, she paced in anger and was about to leave the room.

"hehe."

Ji Xun sneered, knowing why she was in a hurry to leave.

 Because, the "thief's stolen goods" are still on her.

 She didn’t dare to be exposed!

This fat woman is not a very good card master. She can use [Instigation], she must have used some external object.

 And take it with you right now!

Thinking of this, Ji Xun looked at the gem handbag in her hand. With a slight flick of his wrist, a piece of glass shard he picked up before flew out like a flying knife.

 “Shua” made a slit on the bag.

 A palm-sized green ugly rag doll fell to the ground.

  【Dreamweaver's Instigating Doll】

Detailed explanation: Level Ⅱ ancient relic, blood contract, after use, it will release continuous verbal instigation to the target within the range by multiples of its own spiritual power;

 Mrs. Mela turned pale when she saw what had happened.

Seeing this, even though Song Yu still had some doubts in his mind, he suddenly sobered up.

 The rag doll fell to the ground, and the weird eyes looked at her, as if taunting: Stupid and naive person, you have been deceived!

Song Yu looked at the ugly doll, his eyes trembling.

first.

 She felt some unspeakable pessimism about her relatives whom she had never had any evil thoughts towards.

 For the first time, I experienced the viciousness and betrayal of a close relative. This contrast of loss was stronger than any other emotion.

Like a landslide.

 Certain beliefs collapsed.

However, Mrs. Mela was still chattering in a panic: "What is this?! No, it's not mine!"

She can still quibble.

  After all, it is not uncommon in the upper class to frame someone's fault.

At the right time, a man wearing half armor walked in.

Meera seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and shouted: "Captain Rocky, arrest this guy of unknown origin first! I suspect he cast some evil spell on Xiao Yu."

As soon as she said this, she seemed to have convinced herself and shouted excitedly: "He must have secretly put this doll in my bag too!"

 Normally speaking, Ji Xun really couldn’t explain clearly.

 After all, in the eyes of outsiders, they had only known each other for one day, and Song Yu was so "obedient" that he looked more deliberate no matter how he looked at it.

 But Ji Xun didn't pay any attention to the fat woman, and his target was never this person.

 But now, this indifferent guard is walking in.

The guard came in and closed the door.

Mrs. Merlin saw that he didn't move, and shouted, "Why are you just standing there, why don't you take action quickly!"

However, a jaw-dropping scene appeared.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a "clang" sound of a sharp blade being unsheathed. The head fell to the ground, and blood splattered on the wall.

Song Yu, who was still in intense grief, didn't understand what was happening at all, and just watched a headless corpse performing a fountain of blood.

However, it was not Ji Xun who died.

 It’s Mrs. Mela!

Ji Xun was not surprised at all by this **** scene. He just sneered in his heart: "Sure enough, this guy is the mole?"

　　The murderer in the cellar before, the deliberately disguised left-handedness, and the assassin's killing methods turned out to mislead others into not thinking of his black knight career sequence?

Tsk, tsk, professional spy.

 No wonder.

Song Yu was dumbfounded.

The thoughts in my mind seemed to be frozen somewhere, and I had no idea why my bodyguard killed my aunt.

Although

But

My mind was in a blur, and before I had time to straighten it out, I saw that Captain Loki was already looking at me with murderous eyes.

Only then did Song Yu understand: Captain Loki was a traitor!

She had always suspected who betrayed her, and had ruled out many people, but she didn't think it was Loki at all.

This is not a guard from her father's line, but a guard from her own family who came with her aunt.

 Industrial espionage, or what? !

Song Yu didn’t even expect it.

Ji Xun, an outsider, naturally didn't know either.

 But he smelled it.

 Just now, when the fat lady walked in.

Ji Xun smelled onions and bacon in the cellar.

　　After finding someone rescuing the bandits in the cellar in the afternoon, he noted the smell.

 He remembered clearly that there was no such person in the cellar before.

Of course, this smell is very weak and may not be accurate.

 What matters is the timing of appearance.

 Ji Xun is sure that the inner ghost will appear.

 Because this is the best time to assassinate.

 Furthermore, the mole has no hidden meaning.

The biggest change was the participation of people from Bureau X.

Two accomplices were arrested, and with the interrogation methods used by those people, it was impossible to hide the matter.

 So we can only find a chance to escape before our accomplices vomit themselves out.

Of course, if possible, as a professional spy, he has one last thing to do before escaping.

 Then complete the task: kill Song Yu!

Ji Xun had actually caught the moment he saw the guard entering the door. This guy's energy had been locked on Song Yu beside him.

 As for others, Ji Xun felt that he was just like the fat woman. In the eyes of Captain Loki, he was already dead.

 After all, how could such a careful professional spy not understand the strength of his opponent?

 Judging from the information I just got from other guards, this "Chaoyang" is just a gunman.

He was severely injured and almost killed by a first-level "Iron Tail Scorpion" Lai Luodu, so his strength was just like that.

 He is a veteran second-level black knight, and he is more than capable of killing such characters.

Without a word of nonsense, Captain Loki took the dagger that was still dripping with blood and kicked the ground with his feet.

With a few quick steps of "papa", he rushed in front of Song Yu in the blink of an eye.

Looking at the pale expression on that beautiful face, a cold and successful smile appeared in his eyes.

 Finally the task was completed.

But before the smile could spread on his face, Loki suddenly found that his dagger was imprisoned!

Turning his head to look, he saw a pair of arms made of gold paint holding the blade of his short sword with his bare hands!

"what happened!"

Loki looked horrified. He wanted to pull out the dagger but found that he couldn't move at all.

I am a second-level black knight who has grown in strength, but a gunman grabbed the dagger with his bare hands?

How terrifying is this power?

 In an instant, with the vigilance of a professional spy, he immediately realized that something was wrong: This guy is not a gunman!

 He knew he might have been led in the wrong direction.

 From the beginning, it seemed as if this big net was waiting for him to jump.

Ji Xun held the dagger with both hands and gasped.

 Although it’s coming next, it’s not easy.

 It was so difficult to deal with a second-level person, and he couldn't help complaining in his heart: "My body has not recovered enough, it is still very difficult."

His current state makes it difficult to even condense the curse seal.

If you can barely cover it with your hands with your hegemonic body, you have already consumed almost all the magic power.

If the fight continues, you may not necessarily get an advantage.

  Loki is an experienced second-level player after all, and his reactions are very fast.

He couldn't draw the dagger when he was caught. He was stunned for a moment and gave up decisively.

With his backhand, he pulled out another one from his waist and slashed towards Song Yu again with lightning speed.

 The sound of the wind whistling passed by, and at this distance, the sharp blade was already close to the white neck.

 It looked like there was still an inch away, and a big gap was about to be cut in the throat.

Besides the thrill, a wonderful scene happened again.

Although Ji Xun's current body's muscle reaction is a little slower than Loki's, he has already predicted this guy's movements.

Squat down slightly and see an "iron mountain support".

With a "dong" sound like a bell, it hit the strong black knight.

Obviously it was just a very common collision martial art for fighters, but at this moment Loki felt that the magic power all over his body was stagnant, and his soul seemed to have been knocked out of his body.

 The whole person flew out upside down.

 But before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, he felt the sticky strength following him like a shadow.

At the same time, with a strange aura of power, he punched this guy in the chest.

 "Poof" a mouthful of old blood spurted out.

Loki hit the wall hard.

  After all, he is the most durable black knight in the professional sequence, and this punch did not make him lose his combat effectiveness.

The moment this guy was seriously injured, he turned over again and launched an attack.

As soon as Ji Xun punched, he secretly said it was a pity.

The power of this punch is estimated to be less than one-tenth of the total victory state, so it is normal that he cannot be killed.

 However, from the moment this guy was forced to retreat, the last chance to kill Song Yu was lost.

Ji Xun’s stickiness sticks to him all the way, and he completely “overwhelms others with his skills”.

In the past, from senior Gong Wu, I not only learned Qigong, but also the peak-level fighting skills that simplify the complex.

Although Ji Xun's current strength is far inferior to that of his opponent, no matter how hard his opponent exerts his strength, he is still beaten.

There are no martial arts that consume too much mana, just some clever little tricks that are just right.

 In a fighting game, you might be able to see a series of "×26", "×27", and "×28" combo values ​​emerging.

 Once connected, it will not be disconnected until death.

 That Captain Loki was like a human sandbag, passively being beaten throughout the whole process.

 He wanted to fight back, but none of his moves caused any real damage to Ji Xun.

The black knight's physical body is too tough, and Ji Xun can only accumulate injuries little by little if he wants to kill him.

With each slap, Loki would overflow with a mouthful of blood, and the protective spell on his body would become weaker and weaker like flames being blown and swayed.

Ji Xun's fist hit this guy, energy filled the fist and pierced into the body like a knife, it was like a real injury.

Even through leather armor, you can still inflict heavy damage.

 This is [Hegemony Fist], which uses Qi to break armor.

 Not only does it break the protective spell, but it also breaks Qi, Gang, and all means of self-protection.

After probably hitting a combo of more than 60 hits, the protective spell on Loki suddenly jumped up. Ji Xun slashed his neck with a hand knife, and there was a cracking sound of bones cracking.

This second-level black knight died suddenly on the spot.

Ji Xun watched the extraordinary characteristics of the corpse overflow, and then heaved a sigh of relief.

 Looked at the panel: (Mana value 34/34441)

 Almost completely exhausted.

 It is a near miss after all.

The entire killing process seemed to involve more than sixty moves, but it only lasted less than a minute.

Song Yu, who was watching the battle not far away, had no idea what the martial arts was. He only looked at the dazzling shadow of fists and palms. Loki, who had just transformed into a killer, had already vomited blood and died on the spot.

Song Yu could no longer describe the shock in his heart.

Although she guessed that Ji Xun might be a master.

 But it’s incredible that it’s so high that it’s so high that it’s incomprehensible.

　　How could he win even though he clearly looked much weaker?

This is an absolute crushing of fighting skills and martial arts.

 “Huhu. Huh.”

Ji Xun gasped for air while devouring the extraordinary properties on the corpse.

Song Yu hurried over and asked, "Mr. Ji Xun, are you okay?"

Ji Xun shook his head: "It's a bit out of control, it's a small problem."

He heard the footsteps coming from outside the door, and glanced at the body on the ground. He didn't have time to say anything more, and with a stern look in his eyes, he said in a deep voice: "You can't stay in the apartment anymore. Come with me."

The reason he dared to stay here before was because he was sure that he could take down the mole.

Now that his physical strength is exhausted again, he can't guarantee that he can solve any accidents if they happen again.

And the most important point is that the trouble Song Yu is getting into now seems to be very involved.

 She continued to stay in the apartment, like a fixed target, which was bound to attract a steady stream of trouble.

That kind of trouble is something Ji Xun may not be able to handle even in his prime.

 Only by leaving can we stop.

Only in this way can Song Yu's safety be guaranteed to the greatest extent.

Also use the vision of bystanders to analyze and observe the entire event.

Song Yu thought for a moment and immediately understood the intention, and nodded trustingly: "Yes!"

 But she has no experience of traveling alone, and she is in such a complicated and dangerous situation.

 She glanced at Ji Xun and asked slightly awkwardly: "Should I bring something? Well, should I tell the people at the Chamber of Commerce?"

 “No need! Just follow me.”

Ji Xun shook his head.

 Now is simply not the time for nonsense.

 As soon as he regained some strength, he pulled Song Yu directly to the window.

Then before this lady who had never climbed a building could react, he hugged her slender waist and jumped down.

In mid-air, Song Yu covered his flying skirt, and the darkness concealed the blush on his face.

 The people at the Chamber of Commerce would indeed be very worried if the two of them left quietly without saying where they were going.

 But Song Yu's "sudden disappearance" can actually ensure the safety of the people in the Chamber of Commerce.

She disappeared, and some people behind the scenes did not dare to act rashly because they could not find out the news. They even used the apartment of the Rose Chamber of Commerce as a waiting point.

This will make people in the apartment safer.

Rather than like today, Song Yu stayed with the guards and killed a bunch of people at once.

 What the two of them have to do now is to hide and not show up.

Ji Xun is also becoming more and more curious about what big secrets are hidden after this incident.
