Ji Xun carefully interpreted the secret message deciphered in the Silver Moon Mirror several times.
Finally settled on something.
It seems that the people of the Silver Moon Sect are not here to fight, but just to help someone locate themselves.
There is another owner who is really looking for someone.
"What's going on?"
Ji Xun was also confused.
Looking at it this way, the other party probably didn't come for some cross or Weeping Angel.
Otherwise it is definitely not just for positioning.
Instead, they came directly to surround and kill them.
He thought for a long time but couldn't figure out the purpose of those people.
But the good news is that the three people from Bureau X have arrived.
After drinking at Thunder Fortress last time, Ji Xun had some friendship with these officials.
Especially Xie Guozhong, a bold middle-aged man.
The two have quite the same temperament.
After hearing Ji Xun's urgent news, he rushed over with his people as soon as possible.
In the dilapidated building, a man with broad shoulders appeared in the shadows.
Seeing Ji Xun, after the two of them reminisced about old times, Xie Guozhong couldn't help but complain: "Hey, let me tell you, why do you feel like you are in conflict with the Silver Moon Sect? We tried our best through various means and couldn't find it. Those clues to the Old Believers. You guys run into them every time."
Ji Xun spread his hands, feeling a little helpless: "I don't know either."
The matter of Silver Moon Mirror was related to his ability to understand devil language, but he didn't say anything about it.
Xie Guozhong guessed that he had some special information channels, and he was sensible enough not to ask.
But no matter what, this is really a crime.
The two did not chat.
Ji Xun explained the information he analyzed.
Xie Guozhong's guess was similar to his. The Silver Moon Sect might just be here to help find someone this time.
But such opportunities are rare.
It's best if you can grab the tail and pull it out.
Xie Guozhong also put forward some of his own ideas: "Those Silver Moon believers have hidden identities in Innocence City. If they finally catch the opportunity, they must not let it go. I still have several teams on the road. If there is a chance, Try to find out everything this time and catch them all in one go! But I may not take action immediately when the time comes, so the pressure on you will be a bit great."
"Um."
Ji Xun originally meant the same thing.
There was definitely a risk, and he had already predicted it.
Thinking about it, he added: "There is my friend in the broken building over there, and he may also be the target of those people. If you can, please help me take care of him."
Ji Xun was not sure who the other party was coming for, so he hid separately from Nan Jing.
He himself was confident of protecting himself, but it was hard to say for the ball-headed lady.
Hearing this, Xie Guozhong agreed: "No problem."
After deciding to take action, the two of them discussed some details of the action in this dilapidated building.
Not long after, Xie Guozhong suddenly discovered something and said in surprise: "It's really here! He is the old man with a hunchback from last time who can control the undead!"
Ji Xun also breathed a sigh of relief.
The fighting power of the hunchback body is only second level.
Apart from being a little tricky to kill, as long as you don't summon any weird undead things, it doesn't pose much of a threat to you.
This is the Innocence City, and I guess that guy isn't so arrogant as to bring out a Weeping Angel or some other mythical undead spirit.
This area of ruins is very large.
And it extends in all directions. If there is any disturbance, you can use the terrain to quickly hide.
This superior location was also the most important reason why Ji Xun chose to hide in this dilapidated building.
Those in the Silver Moon Sect obviously know this very well.
Even if you know that the target is in this area, it is not easy to locate it accurately.
There is no point in searching at scale.
so.
It would be perfect to send an old man who is good at driving undead creatures.
After Xie Guozhong discovered that someone was coming, a layer of deathly aura lingered all over his body.
The ghosts tattooed and sealed on his body not only increase his combat power, but also have miraculous effects on perception.
Suddenly, he seemed to have discovered something and said: "There are spiritual monsters coming in. They are still invisible. But it's not a big problem. The ghost's spiritual pressure is very low. It seems that it is just looking for people. They can't see To me. But you should have been discovered."
"Um."
When Ji Xun heard this, his expression was normal.
The old man's methods were so weird that he was used to it.
But he also secretly thought that it was a good thing he had met a few official friends, otherwise he would have been discovered without even knowing about it.
What Ji Xun has to do now is to be a good bait.
After being positioned by the people of Silver Moon Sect, those people behind the scenes will come over.
Soon, Ji Xun confirmed something more: "You are really here for me?"
The ghosts used for reconnaissance seemed to have been wandering around the area after discovering him.
What Xie Guozhong meant was that they didn't go anywhere else at all, and they didn't find the Southern Mirror hidden one kilometer away.
Or maybe Nan Jing is a psychic herself, and the ghosts didn't notice her?
The hunchbacked old man never showed up, and seemed to be just helping with positioning.
Ji Xun kept thinking in his mind as to why the enemy would come after him.
Not long after, the news came again.
There is a secret stronghold of Bureau X in Innocence City, which has strong investigative capabilities.
What's more, Xie Guozhong's two assistants, Jia Yu and Awen, have also been observing from the commanding heights in the distance.
From the telescope, they clearly saw the large group of people coming.
When Ji Xun heard about the large group of people, he realized something was wrong.
After all, there are not many forces in Guilty City that can send out large groups of troops.
However, before long, another piece of news came from Mushroom Head that surprised everyone: one of the visitors was suspected to be an elite frost knight from the Cao family!
"A member of the Cao family?"
As soon as the news came, Ji Xun suddenly realized.
He immediately guessed what the other party was coming for.
It was really not for Nanjing, but for myself.
That Fourth Young Master Cao has not given up the epic source card of 407 gains!
"Why did you forget this guy?"
Ji Xun just thought about all the possibilities, but forgot about Cao Yu.
After all, it's been so long.
The last time there was a commotion in the black market on Anyu Street, when Cao Sihai died and the lord's mansion was in turmoil, Ji Xun thought that the young man had calmed down.
I didn't expect it to pop up again now.
Xie Guozhong was also confused.
Originally, I wanted to come here to deal with the believers of the Yinyue Family Sect, but people from the Lord Cao Family came?
How are the two connected?
If it had been through other sources of information, Ji Xun might have thought that he had made a mistake.
But the information was obtained from the [Silver Moon Mirror].
The fact is that the hunchbacked old man from the Silver Moon Sect has indeed arrived.
In the broken building, both of them looked solemn.
Xie Guozhong's information is not closed-minded.
When Cao Yu made such a big fuss and was looking for someone in Innocence City, anyone with a little knowledge would have guessed that it must be because there was some special treasure in the 407 extra-dimensional space.
But treasures are not very attractive to Xie Guozhong.
After all, he is an official member of Bureau X.
But what surprised him was that the person Cao Yu was looking for was actually Ji Xun?
Xie Guozhong didn't ask any more questions.
Instead, he cared more about other things.
His eyes were as deep as fog, and he muttered: "This is really troublesome. People from the Silver Moon Sect may have infiltrated into the circle of high-ranking nobles."
This matter is very serious!
Originally, those old believers were like rats in the sewer, just hiding and spreading their faith.
Now that it has penetrated into the aristocratic class, it is equivalent to having disguise and protection.
Not just covert.
It really involves high-ranking nobles, and even official law enforcement officers like them are extremely restricted in enforcing the law!
Contamination of faith is difficult to detect unless the believers themselves take the initiative to expose it.
It's like finding a rat in the granary.
When I saw the first one.
I'm afraid there is already a big nest in the entire warehouse!
Xie Guozhong fell into deep thought, his face showing unprecedented solemnity.
Thinking about it, he immediately issued an instruction through the communicator: "Jia Yu, issue an 'S-level pollution notice'. Notify all special service teams in Innocence City to be on standby and ready to take action at any time."
The other end of the communicator responded immediately: "Yes!"
After Xie Guozhong finished speaking, he took a deep breath.
He turned to look at Ji Xun and asked, "Brother Ji Xun, what do you think? Withdraw or not?"
The Cao family's large army is coming, and it would be extremely risky for Ji Xun to leave.
The belief in the old gods is the pollution classified by Bureau X as the highest risk level.
I really have to give up. As time goes by, if those people from the Silver Moon Sect succeed in polluting the high nobles, the consequences will be disastrous.
Now that it has been discovered, it may be just a sign and it is not too late to kill it.
When Ji Xun heard this, he narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Let's try it first."
If he ran away now, there would really be nothing the other party could do.
But again, he was now positioned by some mysterious means.
There is no point in escaping until you understand the reason.
I can escape this time, but I can't escape every time.
If this problem is not solved, it will always be a hidden danger.
What's more, powerful helpers like Xie Guozhong are not always available.
"Um."
Xie Guozhong also nodded, not surprised that Ji Xun had such courage, and said: "Then be careful."
That's what he meant too.
Only by throwing a stone into the muddy water can you know whether there is a big fish hidden in it.
He also wanted to use Ji Xun to expose more flaws in those old believers.
However, Xie Guozhong thought of something and said seriously: "The Cao family is one of the five major members of the federation. Without definite evidence, it is not convenient for our X Bureau to intervene directly. You should be careful when the time comes. I will try my best to I will protect you at the most critical moment, but the risk is definitely not small."
"Um."
Since Ji Xun made this choice, he had already become aware of the risks.
Now that you know that the other party is coming for you.
Ji Xun distanced himself further from Nan Jing.
The Frost Knight Legion was indeed very strong, but he did not intend to fight the elites of the Cao family to death.
In the terrain of Polou, Ji Xun's current ability advantage is very great.
As long as there are no particularly outrageous masters, a thousand people might not necessarily be able to surround him.
What he has to do now is to mess up the situation as much as possible.
Let’s see where the connection between the Silver Moon Sect and the Cao family is.
And it's not all bad news.
"Since Cao Yu is here for the treasure of 407. In other words, the other party may think that I am just the card master apprentice who escaped in the black market."
"Although the people of the Silver Moon Sect intervened, they would never dare to reveal that they had infiltrated the Cao family. Therefore, they should not take action. At least not openly."
"As for the top players, with Xie Guozhong here, they should be able to stop him. And that one."
"."
Ji Xun analyzed various possibilities in his mind.
Not long after, a thin mist suddenly drifted over the huge ruins.
This physical level obstruction gradually blurs the vision.
Innocence City, which is full of steam boilers, is often shrouded in a slightly poisonous mist. This is not unusual.
But when Ji Xun looked at it, he immediately realized that the enemy had sneaked in quietly.
Xie Guozhong has disappeared and is hiding in an unknown corner.
Ji Xun also heard a reminder in his ears at this time: "Two sneak targets have already gone upstairs and are coming towards you. They should be first-level assassins, and they are not weak. Be careful."
A communicator the size of an earbud is not something modern technology can produce.
It is ancient black technology obtained through archaeology.
There are some in Bureau X.
Neither does the federal military.
Someone reported the points, and Ji Xun saved a lot of effort.
The face covered under the gas mask has partially transformed into a werewolf.
He just sat there, as if he didn't notice at all.
Stealth is visual invisibility, not disappearance.
It is not difficult for Ji Xun now to find it when he gets closer.
Sudden!
The mist filled the broken building, and a dagger quietly stabbed out of the mist.
He skillfully struck Ji Xun in the back of the head from behind.
He probably thought that it would be easy to deal with a card master apprentice, but he still wanted to catch him alive, so the blow did not hit the vital point.
However, seeing that the assassin was about to succeed, Ji Xun's expression suddenly turned as sharp as a knife: "Here he comes!"
He kicked the ground with both feet and hit the chest of the assassin behind him with a [Brutal Charge].
Before the guy could react, he heard the sound of bones breaking for a moment, and his chest was dented by a huge force, and he lost consciousness instantly.
Ji Xun knocked the assassin unconscious with one blow, and with a flash of cold light in his hand, his wolf claws pierced the sneak attack assassin's throat like lightning.
Assassin card masters follow the explosive route, their spell power is not high, and their physical defense is not much stronger than that of the magic system.
With this lightning-like grasp, blood spurted out from his throat.
The assassin only met him once and died on the spot.
This change happened so suddenly and so quickly that it was unbelievable.
Another assassin was shocked when he saw his companion being killed.
This guy was originally sneaking on the side, trying to cooperate with his companions to intercept the target's forward turning movement to avoid the gouge. This was a very standard coordination tactic.
However, he never expected that his teammates would be killed in just one breath?
The living assassin was stunned for a moment, and immediately chose to fight back.
But just as he was about to rush forward and get close, Ji Xun moved even faster!
Almost as soon as he hit and grabbed the person and killed the person, he had already accumulated strength and changed direction again. With the resistance of the collision, his whole body rushed forward in the opposite direction.
The melee sprint technique of Savage Charge is very effective at killing enemies at this distance.
The assassin on the opposite side had just come out of stealth and was about to exert his strength when the tall wolf body bumped into him.
Using the same move, the moment he was knocked unconscious, the wolf claws had already scratched his throat.
Kill another person in the blink of an eye.
Seeing this scene, Xie Guozhong, who was observing in secret, was also shocked and thought: "So strong. No wonder he is so confident that he can attract those guys."
With that magnanimity and state of mind, Xie Guozhong also guessed that Ji Xun was definitely not weak in strength.
But after all, I haven’t seen it with my own eyes.
I didn't expect this meeting to be so strong.
As for the two people who met each other just now and killed two people in a row without any delay, he has never seen anyone stronger than the person in front of him among the first level.
Ji Xun looked at the corpse on the ground and quickly packed up the loot in a leisurely manner.
He had originally placed some small sensing devices around the broken building, and now they came in handy.
In the transformed state, perception has been pushed to the extreme.
Smell, hearing, crisis perception.
Even if there is thick fog, Ji Xun, who is in the state of returning to his ancestors as a werewolf, can clearly sense the enemy's position.
After killing two people in a row, although the energy fluctuation was small, those guys from the Cao family knew they had been discovered.
There was no point in continuing to lurk, and rapid footsteps suddenly erupted from everywhere in the broken building.
Ji Xun identified the enemy's location, jumped out of the window without taking the stairs.
The elite are the elite after all.
The Cao family also guessed that he would jump off the building and escape, and there were containment forces deployed from all directions.
But fortunately, Xie Guozhong was secretly reporting: "Don't go in the direction of nine o'clock, there is a high-level card master!"
Ji Xun avoided the most dangerous direction and ran all the way.
On the way, he encountered two teams of five who were intercepting them. He showed no intention of stopping and killed several squishy fighters who had no time to dodge.
He fled all the way towards the depths of the ruins.
The wolf claws can easily embed into the outer walls of the building and fly all the way up the walls, completely avoiding the traps set by those people on the ground.
Given the complex environment in the ruins, it would be difficult for even a third-level assassin to catch up.
Taking advantage of the favorable location, Ji Xun had already broken through before he even reached full speed.
Those people in the Cao family were careless after all.
After all, I just thought he was still the same card master apprentice as before.
Last time in the dark rain street black market, a team of five people forced him into a desperate situation.
Now that there are dozens of times more besieging personnel, no matter how you think about it, everything should be foolproof.
But the ridiculously large gap in combat power in Ji Xun's hand completely disrupted Cao Yu's siege plan.
"That guy escaped!"
"At three o'clock, he has broken through the encirclement. Tracking team, stick to it!"
"Damn it, what's going on?"
"The target can transform into a werewolf and is so fast that even a second-level thief can't catch up!"
"Be careful, the target may be the one on the wanted list."
"."
Apparently it wasn't just the fourth young master of the Cao family who didn't expect that the little Ka disciple he was looking for would become so strong.
Even the guys from the Silver Moon Sect didn't expect it.
Didn't he say he was a card master apprentice?
Why is there such a big gap?
I thought it was just an easy containment.
I didn't expect such a big mistake to happen.
And how could even a first-level card master escape from this heavy siege?
It was the first time the news of the target's escape came out,
In a dark corner outside the ruins.
Mrs. Shelley is the leader of the Silver Moon Sect who disguises herself as a noble lady.
This time she used various resources of the sect to deliver a precious fourth-level relic, and finally had a chance to get close to the Cao family.
If someone really wants to escape, this newly established relationship will be broken immediately.
Although the [Relic·Treasure Hunter's Compass] relic is very effective, its use is very costly.
No one was found this time, and the fate of the relics backfired, making it even harder to find them next time.
She heard the report from Old Man Duan in Silver Moon Mirror and knew that the Cao family really couldn't keep that guy if they didn't take action.
"waste!"
Mrs. Shelley cursed silently.
She was not prepared to intervene without exposing her traces, but her eyes widened and she disappeared on the spot.
Ji Xun ran all the way.
This was a plan that was discussed with Xie Guozhong after they discovered that the visitor was from the Cao family.
Based on what we saw before, the people from the Silver Moon Sect had no intention of being exposed in Innocence City, they were just helping with their location.
But this is not what Ji Xun and his wife want to see.
To lure the snake out of its hole, you must lure the big one out.
The Silver Moon Cultists are unwilling to show up, so force them to show up!
Since the Silver Moon Sect is so enthusiastic about finding someone for Cao Yu, there must be something up their sleeve.
They would never let Ji Xun run away.
Xie Guozhong has fought against the people of the Silver Moon Sect. He knows very well that others cannot catch up, but the leader of the Silver Moon can definitely catch up!
Ji Xun ran around all the way, and before anyone in the Cao family could react, he had already broken through the encirclement and rushed out.
This speed is so fast that it will never come back.
However, suddenly, a strange scene appeared.
As Ji Xun ran, a beautiful figure seemed to flash before his eyes.
At the same time, I heard a chant that sounded like a demon whispering: "Moon Curse·Bound by Will!"
The gap was so big that Ji Xun didn't even react.
I felt as if I was in a trance for a moment, and a bright moon was reflected in those shining blue wolf eyes.
As soon as the Shinto secret technique came out, it was as if his consciousness was bound by a mysterious force, and he fell into a wonderful dream state, unable to move.
Ji Xun's thoughts stopped moving, and Ji Xun was stunned on the spot.
But the purpose has been achieved.
The target appears.
Next to his ear, Xie Guozhong shouted: "Awen, you take Ji Xun and evacuate first as planned!"
As he said that, he couldn't wait any longer and ran after the Silver Moon leader who appeared.
Getting caught was part of the plan.
When the two discussed the plan before, they were sure that the leader of Silver Moon would take action.
But it will definitely not be a killer.
Most likely it is just a mental means to restrict movement.
Otherwise, if someone really discovers the clues of her actions, the identity of the old believer will be exposed, and everything will be lost.
The people of the Cao family are not fools and will definitely notice it.
It was risky, but Ji Xun chose to gamble.
The fact was just as the two expected.
The leader appeared and used his spiritual magic to control Ji Xun.
Thanks to '1kose55' for the 1000 coin reward, thank you.
