MTL - Cataclysm King-Chapter 243 Turn the tide

Chapter 243 Turning the Tide

Captain Sam led a hundred people from the Rose Chamber of Commerce and rushed out of the Mechanical City.

But the team is too large and the speed is not too fast.

  Along the way, some stragglers in the Chamber of Commerce team were killed by vampires.

Wails for help echoed in my ears.

 Looking at the president Song Yu in the distance, he felt heartbroken.

Ji Xun observed calmly.

 He also saw that the arrangement of the pursuers was very subtle.

 Two second-level vampires led a group of minions.

 Captain Sam and a group of guards also relied on their equipment advantages to fight them back and forth.

 The battle situation looked very anxious.

This will make people instinctively feel that there is hope for escape.

That gives people a strong psychological suggestion: it seems that if another second-level card master comes to help, they can turn the tide and save those people.

 This is what Song Yu thinks at this moment.

 She would never take a chance if there was really no chance at all.

 But what if this situation is really an opportunity?

People died one by one. Song Yu's eyes were full of anxiety, but he could not speak.

Although she didn't expect Ji Xun to think so much, she instinctively felt that something was wrong.

She didn't know what to do. She glanced at the people around her from the corner of her eye, and just in time Ji Xun also spoke: "I'm going to get ready to take action. You two, be careful later and keep running in this direction. There may be three hidden among the group of vampires." When the fight breaks out, I may not be able to care about you."

 Although he felt that these two people had their "fate" saved and should not die.

 But if you are injured, you will have a lot more trouble.

 At least it would be more inconvenient for him to fight with the wounded.

The little turtle dove on the side was nervously holding a gun. It was difficult for him at this age to see the situation clearly. Without thinking about anything, he mustered up the courage and nodded: "Yeah!"

 “Third level?”

 But Song Yu heard a huge crisis in his words.

 Her expression changed and she worried: "But, Mr. Ji Xun, are you too dangerous? Otherwise?"

  Or forget it.

Although she was worried about the people in the Chamber of Commerce, she was absolutely unwilling to put her friends in danger.

The third level already belongs to the category of high-level card masters, and there is a very big gap between the combat power and the second level.

 Although she knew that Ji Xun was very powerful, he didn't look like he could fight the third level.

When Ji Xun said "Level 3" he was understatement, but now he still didn't care when he heard Song Yu's worries, and said calmly: "It's okay. I happened to stay in the tent for a few days, and I also want to stretch my muscles. "

 Fighters need to improve in actual combat.

Before, the seniors of Gong Wu learned those martial arts skills, and they were still drifting on the water, and there was no place to practice.

 This situation couldn’t be more appropriate.

Not to mention that those vampires are still making sacrifices to the old gods, and even if they don't do this, Ji Xun is not happy either.

 After learning a skill, you should do something.

"But."

Song Yu wanted to say something else, but he saw that Ji Xun had already taken out his pistol and fired at the vampire in the distance.

 “Let’s go!”

 “Run this way and escape from this **** mist first!”

ˆ “.”

Everyone in the Rose Chamber of Commerce fully understood what was happening. They only knew that a large number of vampires had appeared in the Machinery City and were killing people crazily.

 Then they escaped.

 The Chamber of Commerce's guards were not weak, and they also gathered some other card masters from the Mechanical City, and everyone rushed out.

Although it is thrilling, it looks like there is hope of escaping from Bolton Town.

 Only the leader, Captain Sam, vaguely noticed something.

 He is the strongest, and he was the first to discover the battle in the City Lord's Mansion.

 That’s why I’m very confused.

There were obviously high-level card masters participating in the battle, but why did those people let them escape?

This always gave him the feeling that this group of people was not fleeing, but was being driven out.

But even if he had doubts, Sam didn't dare to stop.

 At this moment, they only have a chance to survive if they desperately escape from Bolton Town.

However, as I was running, I suddenly saw someone outside the fog in the distance with a gun and opened fire.

 The timing was very subtle, as if he was responding to them.

 And even more strangely,

Obviously there was only one person who fired, but the firepower seemed to suppress the hundreds of vampires who were chasing after him.

With every gunshot, a running vampire will be headshot.

This instantly made everyone in the Rose Chamber of Commerce feel a lot less stressed.

 This marksmanship is not simple.

At this scene, Sam immediately thought of a person in his mind: Could it be that guy?

Without any further thought, the crowd became lively.

Many people in the Rose Chamber of Commerce have seen Ji Xun, and those people also recognized who this "sharp shooter" was.

“Look, you guys, it’s Chaoyang who shot!”

 “The lady is there too!”

 “Oh, my God. I finally found the lady!”

"The lady is here to pick us up. Why are there only three of us? Quick, protect the lady!"

ˆ “.”

The people from the Rose Chamber of Commerce saw Ji Xun, and at first they couldn't help but be angry and hostile.

When they saw Song Yu safe and sound again, everyone realized that they seemed to have misunderstood a lot of things.

　　Although I don’t understand what happened, at least my lady is still safe. The truth shouldn't be what they thought before, thinking that Chaoyang was a murderer and kidnapper.

On the contrary, several smart people have thought that maybe it was because of his "disappearance" that Song Yu could live peacefully until now.

 But now is not the time to think wildly.

 The situation took a sudden turn.

Ji Xun's superb marksmanship killed more than a dozen vampires in a blink of an eye, which greatly eased the momentum of the ordinary people in the chamber of commerce behind the vampire group.

 However, this good momentum did not last long, as the vampire army behind them suddenly rioted.

Captain Sam saw Song Yu appear, and an ominous premonition came over him, and he shouted: "Miss, run away, don't worry about us, it's very dangerous here!"

As if hearing this shouting, Song Yu, who was still far away, did not dare to delay at all, turned around and ran away.

 Even in Ji Xun's plan, she was the bait.

 Hitting is necessary.

 But it must be far enough away from Bolton Machinery City.

 In this way, the people in the Rose Chamber of Commerce can really survive.

As soon as Ji Xun and I appeared, they turned around and ran away.

But before they could run far, the vampire army behind them seemed to go berserk. Some of the people from the Rose Chamber of Commerce no longer paid attention to them, and they chased after Ji Xun and the two who were running.

 The pressure on the Rose Chamber of Commerce was reduced by half in an instant.

 But the guards were eager to protect their master, and a group of people followed Song Yu's retreat direction.

At this point, Ji Xun and the others were like guides, successfully leading the Rose Chamber of Commerce group and a group of vampires out of the **** mist area.

Ji Xun had already seen before that the blood mist was some kind of sacrificial ritual.

 After leaving the blood mist area, most low-level vampires did not pursue him.

Even if there are those who chase them out, under the intensive firepower, most of them will be defeated in an instant.

However, even if the number is small, the crisis has increased sharply.

It was only then that everyone saw clearly that in addition to the two second-level vampires they had seen before, there was also a being with a more terrifying aura hidden among the group of vampires!

That guy was originally hidden in the vampire team and was inconspicuous.

But at this moment, the robe was torn, and a pair of huge reddish-brown flesh wings spread out.

 In an instant, the aura of a high-level powerhouse swept across the entire place.

not good!

 The leader, Captain Sam’s expression changed suddenly.

 He immediately realized that those vampires were not trying to hunt them down at all.

Rather, he went for his own lady!

The old captain shouted violently and made a decisive decision. He shouted toward the front: "Miss, you go quickly, I'll stop it!"

He held a small buckler and ran into the transforming high-level vampire without hesitation.

The flesh-winged vampire named "Cole" was hit by this collision and his body became unstable, which also hindered his pursuit.

However, an attack of this level poses no threat to it at all.

It looked at Sam who was entangled with him, his eyes full of sarcasm.

Veins popped out on his five fingers, and his sharp nails as sharp as steel blades slapped towards Sam's chest.

　　"咚"" There was a muffled sound like a bell, and Sam's tall body was shot away.

Even though he was wearing plate armor and mail armor, he was hit by the huge force and a mouthful of blood spurted out.

 Cole ignored such an insignificant character and chased after Song Yu who was about to escape in the distance again.

However, as soon as he walked away, there was a metallic crunching sound, and his body stagnated.

 Looking down, he saw that an alloy mechanical chain had been locked on his ankle at some point?

Cole looked at the other end of the chain tied to Sam's arm and said sarcastically: "You are looking for death."

 Without killing this guy, there is no way to pursue him.

Cole glared angrily, stretched the chain, and Sam flew back.

 The power and physical strength of a third-level vampire cannot be compared to that of a second-level card master.

Sam is a black knight who specializes in strength. In a moment of confrontation, the superiority is immediately apparent.

 “Boom!”

 One punch, and Sam received another punch in the chest.

There was another muffled groan.

However, because the two were chained together and their movements were restricted, Sam fought back without any sign of weakness.

He took advantage of the situation to change his moves, pulling the chain and instantly limiting the two of them to a close fighting distance.

 As a result, the distance the opponent can exert force is limited, and the power he can exert is also greatly limited.

 The two sides were entangled like wrestlers and began to fight each other with fists and fists.

 “Dong, dong, dong”

　　Multiple noises.

 At level 3 versus level 2, Sam is at an absolute disadvantage.

However, since he used this method of attack, he didn't think about surviving at all, he just wanted to hold the vampire back.

This tactic was also very effective, buying a lot of time for Song Yu over there to escape.

 At least he thinks so.

Ji Xun was not surprised at all when he saw a third-level vampire hiding.

 When I killed Captain Loki five days ago, his body had not recovered much, so it took a lot of effort to kill that guy.

It is estimated that the "master behind the scenes" estimated that his combat power was probably at the second level based on the traces on the body.

 At this time, a third-level vampire was sent.

Ji Xun also observed just now that this guy, like Artai, is a third-level player from Noluzi, and his strength is average for the same level.

 Just because he has the ability to transform into a vampire, his physical body is quite strong.

 But that’s all.

Ji Xun originally wanted to lure these vampires away from the Mechanical City before taking action.

 Everything was pretty much as expected before.

 However, something unexpected happened.

What he didn't expect was that Captain Sam would hold back the third-level vampire regardless of his own life or death?

Ji Xun looked at this sudden situation, smacked his lips, and thought about it: "It's a little troublesome."

This is not too far from the Machinery City.

 It is possible to kill.

However, he has only recovered 50% of his strength now. If he wants to kill a third-level vampire, the battle will be noisy.

 Time may also be delayed for a while.

If we really take action here, I'm afraid it will attract several other high-level enemies in the Mechanical City who don't know how strong they are.

 The trouble will be huge by then.

This is why he hesitated for a moment.

Hearing Ji Xun's muttering, Song Yu next to him looked over with sparkling eyes.

 The situation before her was the most hopeless and helpless moment she had experienced in her entire life.

On one side was his loyal guard captain who was dying for him, and on the other side were the members of the Chamber of Commerce who were slaughtered. Bloody deaths were being staged in front of his eyes.

 She found herself unable to do anything.

I could only watch the familiar people around me die tragically in front of me one by one.

This kind of despair strikes a deeper chord in Song Yu’s soul than Song Yu’s feeling that he is facing death.

Looking at Ji Xun, who was frowning slightly, a strong uneasiness suddenly arose in the heart of this wealthy lady. She doesn't want to lose any more friends.

But at this time, Ji Xun still said the words that she wanted to hear someone say but didn't want to hear, "You keep running forward. I'll go help him."

Just as she was about to leave, Song Yu grabbed her and said with tears on his face: "Ji Xun, I don't want you to be in crisis too."

Ji Xun was stunned for a moment, then looked back at the emotional girl, reached out and patted her head, shook his head and said with a smile, "It's nothing dangerous."

 I frowned just now because I just felt it was a little troublesome.

 He didn't think this third-level vampire posed any threat.

"I"

Song Yu still refused to let go. The smile that made her feel inexplicably reassured before made her feel more and more precious now, and she didn't want to lose it.

 But she didn’t know how to speak.

 I am afraid that if I let go, I will no longer be able to hold on to anything.

His eyebrows blinked, and the crystal tears couldn't stop falling down his cheeks.

 Has cried into tears.

Ji Xun looked into the girl's eyes. At this moment, it was like seeing the Milky Way flowing in the starry sky on a summer night. Brilliant and crystal-clear, the beauty is profound and filled with clarity that directly strikes the soul.

 There was a tacit understanding of knowing each other in her eyes.

So reluctant to give up, my heart is broken.

 The sadness and persistence passing through his eyes made Ji Xun seem to see the waiting and expectations he had spent his entire life a hundred years later.

This girl really had to wait a hundred years

That’s really stupid.

Ji Xun gently caressed her forehead and unconsciously dropped his hand, wiping away the warm teardrop on her cheek and grinning: "Don't worry. I won't die."

Originally I didn’t want to get involved too deeply,

 But then I thought about it.

 No matter what the future holds.

 They only live in the present.

ˆ “.”

As soon as Song Yu finished speaking, he saw that Ji Xun had disappeared on the spot.

 There was a domineering aura about him that he had never seen before.

Song Yu's eyes trembled because of the breath. The "I won't die" echoing in her ears gave her great courage and confidence.

At this moment, she was inexplicably convinced again.

 There was no time to restrain the sadness in his eyes.

Although she was still worried, she thought of Ji Xun's words, turned around and ran towards the distance.

Ji Xun rushed all the way, not forgetting to shoot and kill several vampires along the way.

Several magazines on his body are filled with alchemy bullets given by Song Yu. As long as his gun skills are skillful enough, he can do good damage to even first-level vampires.

 There were not many vampires chasing the blood mist originally. After emptying the magazines in these two hands, there were only a few first- and second-level vampires left.

But Ji Xun didn't care about those guys. It was enough for the people from the Rose Chamber of Commerce to block it for a moment.

 In the blink of an eye, he had rushed to another battlefield.

At this moment, Captain Sam, who was covered in blood, was still fighting with the third-level vampire.

However, when he saw the reinforcements coming, Sam not only did not look happy at all, but instead anxiously said to Ji Xun: "Leave me alone, it's important to protect the lady!"

While speaking, he vomited out large mouthfuls of blood foam.

Ji Xun seemed not to have listened at all. He rushed over and kicked the vampire in the head.

 The impact air wave sends sand and rocks flying.

 Cole was hit by this kick and said, "Hey, he's not weak."

 In its opinion, this kick is no longer something that ordinary second-level kicks can do.

But it won't do much harm to him.

Ji Xun didn’t use all his strength this time.

I just want to share the firepower and prevent Sam from dying.

 He avoided the vampire's grasp, and heard Sam's sad and angry scream: "Leave me alone!"

This "rising sun" that cannot see the reality clearly makes Sam extremely anxious: Doesn't this guy know that even if the two of them join forces, it is impossible to defeat this third-level vampire?

 Wasting time to save people now is simply a foolish act based on impulse!

Not only can’t he be saved, but he will actually put his own lady into a situation of death.

 Sacrificing yourself to hold this guy back for a moment is the best choice.

This guy is totally messing around!

Miss, I can't bear it. Why can't you, a secret guard, see through this? !

 But Sam could no longer say these words.

The struggle just now left him seriously injured.

 But then, a scene that made him even more desperate appeared.

Just at the moment when Ji Xun was fighting, Sam suddenly heard a mechanical click.

 In a blink of an eye, I saw that the mechanical chain on my arm had been opened?

Although I don’t know how this guy did it, he is sure it was this "Chaoyang" that opened it!

 What good things has he done!

 Sam was furious.

 The moment the restraints were released, the vampire Cole immediately noticed it, and with surprise in his heart, he retreated violently.

 Sam also felt that the pressure of death suddenly eased.

However, he looked at Ji Xun beside him and shouted: "Damn it, do you know what you are doing?! Not only can you not save me, but you will actually harm me."

Before he finished speaking, "Wow" another mouthful of blood sprayed out.

What he didn’t finish was that if no one could contain this third-level vampire, everyone would die!

 The enemy that he had finally spent most of his life to hold back was now in vain because of letting go.

　　What a fool!

Ji Xun on the side stood silently as if he hadn't heard anything.

 The facts seem to be developing in the direction Sam least wants to see.

Vampire Cole flew in the air with his flesh wings, looking at Ji Xun and Sam in front of him, his eyes flashed coldly.

 Although he didn't pay attention to the two second-level card masters, it would take some time to kill them.

 On the other side, Song Yu was already running further and further away.

 After the town of Bolton, there are wilderness mines extending in all directions, and the terrain is complex.

If you really have to run away, it’s hard to say you’ll be able to find him.

Thinking of this, Cole only glanced at the two of them and snorted coldly: "Let you two live a little longer."

 Speaking, he fluttered his wings and turned around and chased in the direction of Song Yu.

 “Damn it!”

Sam watched the enemy fly away and cursed angrily.

He struggled to his feet anxiously, preparing to chase after him.

However, even if he was not injured, Sam knew that he would not be able to catch up with the flying vampire.

At this moment, the loyal guard captain seemed to have aged ten years instantly, with despair written in his eyes.

 But he was not thinking about his injuries at the moment, but he still wanted to make a last effort to catch up and use the remaining life to help his young lady one last time.

However, before he could leave, he heard Ji Xun's calm voice: "It will be safer if you and the people from the Chamber of Commerce go south. Leave that vampire to me."

　　　　???”

　　When Sam heard this, he already heard it wrong.

 Going south, isn’t that the opposite direction to my lady?

 Are you trying to make yourself a deserter?

His anger has reached its limit at this moment: Does this guy know what he is doing? !

ˆ “.”

However, Ji Xun had no intention of explaining it. He just watched the distance the vampire flew, and while locking its energy, he estimated the distance and time in his mind.

 Let Sam lead the people from the Chamber of Commerce to leave separately for safety's sake.

 It is also to save them.

The main target of those vampires is Song Yu, and they will not pursue people like the Chamber of Commerce.

 So that they can truly survive.

 On the other side, to protect Song Yu, he is enough.

　　A large number of people is a burden.

The target is big, and there will be continuous troubles if you are hunted down.

Ji Xun didn’t think he could save these people a second time.

 Sam doesn’t know this.

 He barely held himself up and was about to question.

 But at this moment, Ji Xun moved.

Hearing a pop in the air, Sam watched the figures in front of him disperse, his eyes stagnant: Huh? ? ? What just happened?

 After a moment, the thoughts in my mind seemed to accept the scene in front of me.

The old guard captain came to his senses and realized that he had seen perhaps the most incredible scene in his life.

That figure actually flew away into the air?

"This this."

 Captain Sam looked at the series of shadows left by Ji Xun's rampage in the air, and then suddenly realized what an outrageous scene he had seen.

 Traveling long distances in the air?

The extremely fast movement is as if a person is flying in mid-air.

How was this done?

 Sam was too shocked to speak.

He is a guard trained by the Song family. He is quite knowledgeable and knows some profound body skills that can enable him to step into the air at short distances.

 There are many second- and third-level assassins who can do it.

 But this... long distance?

 He has never seen anyone reach such a level of elegance.

 Haven't even seen it among the fourth orders.

 “How strong is this guy?!”

The impact of the picture in front of him was so strong that it broke through all Sam's inherent understanding of the "rising sun" in an instant, like a dam bursting.

With such wonderful movement skills, how could Sam not realize that in front of him was a "great master" whose strength far exceeded his own?

The angry mood just now was gone in an instant.

 It turns out this guy means this.

 Let yourself go south, but I think they are too weak and will hold you back!

 It was not an accident to let the vampire go before, it was also intentional. Just to keep the battlefield away, and to protect them from attracting those high-level vampires in the Mechanical City!

 Otherwise, with this guy's speed, even with one person, he could escape safely.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 institutions

 Thinking again about the previous "kidnapping" of the lady, it was also his plan!

Having understood everything in an instant, Sam suddenly felt like the hairs all over his body were exploding.

Strong and thoughtful.

He instantly raised his impression of this "rising sun" to an indescribable level of admiration.

Thinking of "Chaoyang"'s calm demeanor just now, Sam suddenly became relieved from shock, and then became relieved.

He looked at the figure speeding through the air and murmured mockingly to himself: "The lady really brought a very strong guy."

 No wonder that "Chaoyang" could say those words just now.

 It turns out that strength is his confidence.

"hehe."

Thinking of this, Sam smiled bitterly and was completely relieved.

 If that person can't solve the problem, he won't be able to help.

 On the contrary, following the arrangements will make your own lady safer.

Thinking of this, Sam did not delay any longer, greeted the other members of the Chamber of Commerce, and gathered towards the south.

 “Pah, pah, pah, pah”

  There was a series of air explosions in the air.

But the sound was mixed with the sound of gunfire and was not obvious.

At this moment, Song Yu was running in panic, not daring to look back when he heard the noise.

 Because at this moment, a second-level vampire appeared from somewhere in the dark corner and was already chasing after him.

That cold murderous intention was like a biting cold air approaching my back.

 She could already hear the weird laughter coming from the vampire's mouth.

Seeing this, the third-level vampire Cole, who was still flying in the sky in pursuit, also raised the corners of his mouth, showing a successful sneer.

As long as this "goal" is grasped, the task is completed.

However, the sneer was still on its face, and it didn't realize what happened. Suddenly something happened.

 In the field of vision, a figure quickly passed in front of him and instantly protected the woman.

Haven't waited for Cole to take any action.

The second-level vampire who was about to catch Song Yu still had a weird smile on his face, but his head was pressed down by a big hand filled with ripples of gang energy, and he was hit hard without any resistance.

 A muffled sound of "dong" echoed around the mine.

 His head sank a foot into the ground, and his blood collapsed all over the floor.

"ah"

Song Yu was also startled by the sudden movement.

 Turning around, he saw that it was not a monster, but a familiar face that came into view.

In the reflection of his eyes, Ji Xun, who was full of energy like flames, was already close at hand, with the same calm and calm expression on his face.

　　　　　

 Seeing him, Song Yu's eyes flashed with brilliance, his panic disappeared in an instant, and he felt inexplicably relieved.

That figure once again broke into her field of vision like a hero descending from the sky, and also reflected into the girl's inner world.
