MTL - Cataclysm King-Chapter 303 【DP955 Research Institute】

Chapter 303 [DP-955 Research Institute]

 Ji Xungang left not long ago.

 In the swamp, Heman, the commander of the Hydralisk Legion, and a group of people hurriedly chased him.

 In the thick fog, they accurately found the place where the two last met.

 Looking at the clothes in the water, the expressions of the group of people became solemn.

 In the team, standing next to Heman was an old woman with half black and half white hair.

This is "Black Widow" Heather, the leader of the Poisonous Mercenary Group.

 [Diamond 3-Plague Doctor] A seventh-level professional voodoo master.

 An auxiliary card master who is good at poisoning, detoxifying and driving various poisons.

Her hands like dry branches picked up the clothes soaked in the water, sniffed them between her noses, and finally shook her head and muttered to herself: "Strange, the toxin mark has completely disappeared. The target should have used some unconventional method." This method avoids the leakage of biological energy."

Herman sighed slightly when he heard this.

Hearing this, Heman said helplessly: "The fireworks just now should have pointed the way. The woman's companion came to meet her."

“The card masters in the East Wasteland have lost their inheritance, and the strongest ones are only level six. The cards have been at this bottleneck for thousands of years, so it’s not surprising that they have figured out some tricks to master the field in advance.”

 That way there is no need to delay.

Herman has already begun to think about quitting.

Just as I was thinking about it, the people in the team also started talking.

 If it were the other six levels, he would have died countless times.

Although it is basically certain that it is the person who was rescued by the dark son of the rebel dragon army.

"Well. There seems to be a large-scale underground ancient ruins under the swamp. According to the current clues, it is probably the secret research institute of the Bai family. If it is really what we think, it is really possible to find that thing."

A group of mysterious people in white cloaks walked underground along the passage.

 But at this moment, an inexplicable feeling of familiarity arose in his heart.

 Deep in the swamp, there are ruins of buildings.

Chasing all the way, only they knew how difficult their opponent was just now.

Herman decided not to continue chasing.

Now seeing such a sixth-level person being chased by the legion escape, Heman always felt a little strangely familiar.

 But who cracked the space, who was rescued, and how did he come into contact with the toad?

There are many doubts, and so far there are no definite clues.

 The impression it gives people is: a guy dancing on the tip of a knife.

The previous inexplicable disappearance of "Warren City Rebel Camp" has not been investigated yet.

 The most important thing is courage.

But compared to a sixth-order person, they have more important tasks.

Herman didn’t think it was such a coincidence. Their Hydralisk Legion met two such people in a short period of time.

at the same time.

This is exactly the same plan as the one that dared to contact Toad to rescue a few slaves under the heavy protection of the legion.

“You can understand the realm at the sixth level, so it’s no wonder that you have such outrageous combat power. In our Southern Continent, even two or three of the same level would be helpless against this so-called ‘legendary card master’ in the Eastern Wasteland.”

ˆ “.”

Heather said: "There are traces of dark elements here, and I don't understand the law too well. The person who responded may only be at level five. But the hiding method is good. If you want to find it in this swamp, I'm afraid it will take some effort." "

 However, saving the slave can figure it out.

There are almost no useful clues left at the scene, which can already explain a lot of problems.

"It doesn't matter, the kingdom's top card masters are also coming to the Old Continent one after another. Even if those people in the Eastern Wasteland show up with a few seventh-level cards, they won't be able to make a big splash. We'd better hurry up and explore and complete the tasks assigned above. . The Holy See is bound to get that thing. If we really can’t find it, we can only raise our head and go see it.”

ˆ “.”

“But having said that, that woman’s field is really domineering. The gods in the war sequence descend to the earth, and there are several very strange immortal methods. If she is really allowed to advance to the seventh level, she will also be a formidable opponent.”

 What does it mean to save the people of Donghuang?

 Could it be that you are also here for the ruins?

This person said it is difficult to find, so it is really difficult.

　　Even knowing that they were being rounded up by two seventh-level Hydralisks, they still dared to come to rescue people. This kind of courage was not something ordinary people could possess.

 The entire legion has been exploring the Plague Swamp for so long, and seeing that they have made major discoveries, it is impossible for them to continue to spend too much time "catching rats."

He paused for a moment, a hint of contemplation and doubt appeared in his turbid eyes, and then said: "I have never seen this method before. I guess it is probably those lost professional sequence secrets. Jiejie, those in Donghuang The card master also passed down some interesting spells."

  More likely to be done by the same person.

 Wise, calm, and decisive in means.

“Let the people below quickly get the toad to confirm.”

 But he always had a bad feeling: the trouble was not over yet.

 After all, it’s just a sixth-level war slave, so it’s not worth wasting too much time.

 This is a cement passage, with mottled white paint writing on the wall, and the words "DP-955 Research Institute" are faintly visible.

A group of people are in front of a sealed steel gate, trying to crack the access control.

At this moment, a nightingale phantom appeared in the void.

 “What, you mean, the woman escaped?”

"Yes. News just came from our people lurking on the side of the Hydralisk Legion"

"With our information guidance, we went to two seventh levels, but we couldn't keep her? How is it possible?"

"Yes. That man used several life-saving methods in the battle that have never been seen in the intelligence. And the point is here. Those secret techniques are not [war] sequence of spells, but are very similar to our Bai family secrets. picture"

"You mean, that woman used some of our Bai family's secret techniques of immortality? The final method of escaping was probably the 'Secret Embryo Parasitism Technique'?"

"Yes. Among those secret techniques, there are also ancient forbidden techniques that have been lost to our Bai family."

ˆ “.”

The leader listened to the information reported by the fairy, and slowly opened his cloak, revealing a fair and handsome face.

If Ji Xun were here, he would definitely be able to recognize him at a glance. This is Bai Wei, the "number one genius of the Bai family" whom he had met before.

His eyebrows, which were more charming than women's, narrowed slightly, and a fox-like smile appeared in his eyes: "Hey, if you really want to talk about seniority, she is still my aunt. But it's strange. Her mother was expelled back then. The Bai family has used an oath to seal all inherited memories of the Bai family's secret techniques. Where did that woman learn it?"

At this time, someone else in the team spoke up: "The people from the Revolutionary Army found this secret research institute before us. Maybe it's not surprising that they found some inheritance. She also has the blood of the Bai family and has good talent. Fortunately, she got a certain immortal I can’t say for sure what my family will approve of it.”

 This is why they used spies to guide those in the Southern Continent to surround and kill the revolutionary army.

 The people of the Bai family thought they were the first people to come to this ruins. Unexpectedly, after arriving, I discovered that people from the Revolutionary Army were already looking for this research institute.

This made the people of the Bai family immediately feel a sense of crisis.

 Qin Ru was able to prove her combat prowess when she fought alone in the Shenxu Treasure House against two of the king's four knights.

It is almost impossible to kill her without seventh-level strength.

The Bai family didn't want to fight her to the death, so they chose to kill her with a borrowed knife.

 “Who saved her?”

"It's not clear yet. But judging from the situation, the person who responded to her should also be lurking in the Southern Continent adventure team. Otherwise, it would be impossible to get accurate information and reinforcements would arrive so quickly."

“Tsk, tsk, if my aunt escapes, she will be in big trouble in the future.”

ˆ “.”

Although Bai Wei said this, there was no worried expression on his face.

 He looked at the locked mechanical door in front of him and muttered to himself.

“With so many poisons gathering in the swamp, our Bai family’s inherited treasure [Ten Thousand Immortal Lamps] should be in this research institute. As long as we can find it, our Bai family will be prosperous just around the corner.”

"That's right. What's more, this used to be the secret tomb where my ancestors of the Bai family worshiped the immortal family. If we are lucky enough to be recognized and protected by an ancestor, the immortal family, our Bai family will also have a foothold."

"The situation here in the Old Continent is very complicated. Since all the Bai family sects have been wiped out, the battle must have been extremely tragic. It's hard to say whether there are any surviving ancestors of the Immortal Family."

"Faith is immortal, gods are immortal; incense continues, and those top immortal families will not dissipate so easily. Keep an eye on the movements of the Hydralisk Legion and attract people over as soon as possible. Sacrifice those people, not to mention the ancestral immortal families , at least it can awaken some high-level immortals."

"yes."

ˆ “.”

Ji Xun knew very well that if he could force Qin Rusu into a desperate situation, there must be high-level card masters among those in the Hydralisk Legion who were good at tracking.

Although he felt that the traces he left had been completely erased, he was afraid of some super-cognitive perception methods.

 The possibility of the inheritance of card masters in the Southern Continent not ending is very high.

Ji Xun ran wildly in the swamp.

 From time to time, shadows are also used to mislead.

 But soon, he breathed a sigh of relief.

 The early warning device arranged behind him has not been triggered, which still means that there is a high probability that no one is chasing him.

 Seeing this situation, Ji Xun automatically sorted the dozens of situations in his mind, and finally came up with the two most likely ones.

 First, either the two seventh-level people are not interested in chasing one sixth-level person and think it is a waste of time;

After all, although the card masters in the southern continent and the card masters in the eastern continent are in a hostile relationship, the current roundup is just to capture a few war slaves.

 If the cost is too high, it is meaningless.

 Second, either, they have more important things to do.

Ji Xun was more inclined to the latter, and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Did you really find important clues in that swamp?"

Ji Xun and Toad have been chatting a lot about the situation in the Airel Empire these days. He knew that the orders of the Holy See took precedence over the royal power.

 The people from the Holy See are looking for the "jar", and the Hydralisk Legion will never dare to delay.

　Now even the toads that have been imprisoned in the camp have been transported, which means that there must be a major discovery in the swamp.

 Thinking of this, Ji Xun stopped.

 Finally, the person was rescued without any danger.

 Time is no longer pressing.

 Glancing at his shoulder from the corner of his eye, he looked at the wound that looked like a snake bite and raised his eyebrows slightly: "Aunt Qin?"

　　I tried to shout.

  There was no response.

 Many of the Bai family's spells are secret family secrets, and the outside world doesn't know the principles at all.

 Hyperparasitism is one of the very strange spells.

Even though Ji Xun has been parasitized before, he still doesn’t know how this spell works.

 It seems that the parasite is on the verge of death before it is forced out.

 It seems that he cannot communicate with Qin Rushi for the time being.

 Or maybe she didn’t plan to come out in a short time to avoid some kind of perception method?

 Or maybe the injury was serious?

 In any case, the person has been saved.

Ji Xun is no longer in a hurry.

Since no one was chasing him, he lost his sense of urgency.

 Since those people didn’t come after them immediately, they probably wouldn’t come after them.

Ji Xun changed his direction and did not continue to escape towards the dangerous area.

The previously planned escape routes were no longer necessary, and he once again returned to the safe road back to the camp.

These proven routes are marked all the way.

 From time to time, you can meet adventurers who come to the swamp.

　Not long after, Ji Xun was sniffing the scent and came across a large force escorting the toad.

Probably because the Hydralisk Legion was making a big move, keen people have noticed the opportunity, and countless adventure groups have also poured into the swamp.

 Looking at this number, most of the hundreds of thousands of adventurers who were previously in the camp outside the swamp are here.

Ji Xun looked at this group of people with restrained eyes.

The opportunities that these people can see, of course he can also see.

 And see deeper.

 In the world in Ji Xun's eyes, everything has lines of destiny that are constantly moving and deducing.

 “I am the world” can deduce the source and result of events.

Recently, he has become more and more proficient in this mysterious magic, and he has seen something different: "How do I feel that these people seem to be deliberately led in?"

Hydragon Legion Heman can come and explore in person. Needless to say, it must involve some important discoveries.

 With such a huge opportunity to get rich, it is normal for mercenaries to flock here.

But Ji Xun has experienced Jia Yu's layout several times, and he has deeply realized that there are almost no traces of a truly brilliant layout.

If you want to see through this layout, you must not look at the big flow, but observe the details.

For example: Aragorn said there might be a "jar" inside; and by coincidence, Qin Rushi happened to appear here.

When Ji Xun thought about this, he thought about these two points and discovered the problem: "That's not right. The Revolutionary Army is an expert in guerrilla warfare all year round. The plague swamp is still so big, how could they be discovered so easily and blocked? "

 “Is it a mole?”

Ji Xun suddenly thought of something.

Qin Ru is so thoughtful, and it stands to reason that he would never be blocked and killed so easily. Only by having an insider can he explain everything reasonably.

Ji Xun's thoughts extended along this line of thinking: "Hey, that's interesting. The mole leaked the location of the revolutionary army to the Hydralisks Legion, and used a borrowed knife to kill people?"

 Assuming this is possible, there are only a few conclusions that can be drawn.

 With absolute strength, conspiracy methods are not necessary.

 The overall strength of the Southern Continent crushes the Eastern Wasteland, so there is almost no need to deploy spies or anything like that.

In the previous battle at Nugget Pier, a seventh level was lost, which made it difficult for people on the South Road to trust the surrendered Donghuang Card Master.

so,

 Suppose there is a mole,

 Then it can only be people from within Donghuang.

As for the Donghuang Card Division in the Old Continent, most of them are members of the Alliance Army.

 There is no hostile relationship between the two.

 Hence, those "insiders" are most likely from the restored Oran royal family.

 “The people from the Bai family have also come to the swamp?”

Ji Xun thought about it for a moment and thought of the best answer.

As for spies, the Bai family’s [God Thief] is definitely the most suitable career sequence he has ever seen for being a spy.

Various fairy and mysterious spells are hard to guard against.

Just like if Ji Xun had never seen it before, how would he know that a living person could be parasitic in a human body?

Ji Xun can sneak in, and others can, too.

The people from the Bai family may have arranged for people to infiltrate these southern continent adventurers.

 Even the top brass of the Hydralisk Legion.

This can also reasonably explain everything.

 Borrowing the power of the Hydralisk Legion, severely inflicted heavy losses on the revolutionary army Qin Rushi and his party.

 But the problem also arises.

“So, why do the Bai family attract so many people to the swamp?”

Ji Xun thought of this and suddenly realized that this was a serial plan.

The strategy of killing someone with a borrowed knife is indeed a good one.

 But it will also expose the secrets deep in the swamp.

 Obviously, those in the Bai family didn't mind this, but instead deliberately attracted these people in.

Looking at the crowd in front of him, the colorful threads of fate in Ji Xun's eyes suddenly turned into a dark and lifeless color.

 “I am the world” repeatedly traces its origins, deduces, and eliminates it.

 Finally, he determined that everything he was thinking of now had no logical flaws.

In other words, he has most likely deduced a result that is most consistent with the actual situation.

 “Sacrifice?”

 This word popped into Ji Xun's mind instantly.

Letting so many people in can really help open up wasteland.

 But after opening up the wasteland, the Bai family's strength was simply not qualified to **** the treasure from the hands of these strong men in the southern continent.

 So the only possibility is that they are sure that these people do not pose a threat.

 Only the dead are no threat.

The swamp was originally a "secret tomb of the Immortal Family" belonging to the Bai family, and no one knew what was inside it better than the Bai family.

There are many similarities between the Immortal secrets of the God Thief sequence and the Shinto secrets of the Old God believers.

 The Bai family did this with all their motives and methods.

 This is also the only reasonable explanation.

Thinking of this, Ji Xun's expression became playful: "Tsk, tsk, these guys from the Bai family are really ruthless."

Looking at it this way, the Eastern Continent is not vulnerable.

 The more bizarre the situation becomes, the more inexplicably attractive it becomes to Ji Xun.

He looked at the gray thread of fate, and suddenly his eyes fell on the iron cage wrapped in black cloth.

 This is the world in Ji Xun's eyes at this moment, the only thing that is not gray.

　　But represents the mysterious black.

 In the iron cage, there is a hero imprisoned.

 Just like the copy of "Valen City Rebel Camp", "Gron" is a plot anchor.

 The hero Aragorn, in Ji Xun's eyes, is also an anchor at this moment.

 Even if everyone else dies, the hero does not die so easily.

"hey-hey."

Ji Xun grinned his teeth when he thought of this, and there was only one strong thought left in his mind.

 He wants to go in and have a look!

 I originally planned to find an opportunity to rescue the toad.

 Now it seems that the most feasible opportunity has arrived.
