Cataclysm King

Chapter 259: That person suppressed two eras (Thanks to the alliance leader ‘Nine-Storey Pagoda’)

Ji Xun stood quietly in front of the window sill,

Falling into an indescribable state of enlightenment.

He was completely unaware that an invisible aura was gradually surrounding his body.

He felt as if a long, long time had passed,

It seemed like only a moment had passed.

After thinking about it, Ji Xun put down the letter in his hand, and then took out the letter with the "Time and Space Stamp" on it.

The stamps have faded and are completely dull.

Ji Xun knew that the stamp had allowed him to travel through time before, and the "power of time" contained in it had been exhausted.

After looking at it for a long time, he sighed slightly.

Gone after all.

It is also unknown how many years it will take for the stamps to be restored.

Ji Xun stood up from his chair and carefully collected the hundreds of letters.

There is also a box under the bookshelf, which was also left for Song Yu.

Ji Xun opened it and took a look.

There is a "sealed secret box" inside, as well as a ring.

This secret box is the mithril mine that went to Bolton Town, which was left behind by the ancestors of the Bai family.

Once a contract is concluded, others cannot use it.

And the ring is the [God Thief's Ring] that Ji Xun failed to take away a hundred years ago.

Song Yu has always kept the two items well.

Now, it was finally handed back to Ji Xun.

"Hey"

Ji Xun looked at the two items and sighed again.

These two items carry the memory of his adventures with that silly girl.

It's still the same two things.

But the person is no longer there.

Ji Xun picked up the ring and put it on his finger.

Just when I looked up, I saw the brightly lit Innocence City outside the window.

And the last expressionless face was reflected on the glass.

Ji Xun looked at his face, feeling so strange for the first time.

He had seen many sad faces in the circus. As a clown, he would always come up with tricks to make people happy.

Looking at this unhappy face, he seemed to be suffering from an occupational disease. He grinned, trying to make a face to make him happy.

But the face in the mirror looked sad no matter what.

The corners of the raised mouth drooped, and his face became expressionless again, and his eyes were deep and dim.

Not willing to give in, he used his index fingers to raise a high arc on both sides of his mouth, forcing a smile.

The smiling face seemed to be frozen there, not drooping.

But for the first time, he felt that his smile was so exaggerated and so hypocritical.

Smiling, Ji Xun murmured to himself: "So, is this sadness?"

In the past, it was difficult for Ji Xun to feel happiness, so he pursued excitement and sensory pleasure;

But it was harder for him to feel sadness.

He can perform various emotions perfectly, but there is no wave inside.

This was the first time that he felt the grief as if his heart had been hollowed out.

But as soon as this low mood came up, it seemed as if I heard the girl speaking softly again: "Mr. Ji Xun, you have to be good~"

After hearing this, the person in the mirror unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

As soon as he thought about it, Ji Xun took out the black and white photo of the two of them together and looked at it.

Looking at that pretty face with a beautiful smile, he smiled slightly: "Miss Yu, did you feel the same way in those years?"

It turns out that some people can really rely on some good memories to feel happy.

Ji Xun caressed the photo and put a smile on his face again.

When people are concerned, it seems that they begin to realize the meaning of life.

After gathering everything, he walked towards the door.

Honglou is very lively.

The opening ceremony is still going on.

Another classic stage play of the Royal Song and Dance Ensemble has begun.

The excitement was not limited to those watching the show.

And those who actually "watch the show."

Just when Ji Xun was reading those letters in his room, he was completely unaware that an undercurrent was already surging throughout the Innocence City.

As for Hong Tower, which is the center of the storm, ordinary people have no idea that under the lively appearance, the fuse of the explosive barrel has been ignited.

In a private room on the fourth floor of Hong Tower.

Several mysterious people are tinkering with a spell formation.

Whenever there are outsiders here, looking at the shadows of the "Immortal Family" emerging behind them, they can immediately guess that they are members of the Bai family, the god-stealers.

The green smoke lingered in the spell formation, forming the shadow of a fox.

Suddenly, the fox opened his eyes.

The leader, the elder Bai, looked happy.

"The person who has passed away has been confirmed, take action!"

"Those guys are still staring at who is the new head of the Song family, but they don't know that as long as we grab the body of that old man and woman, everything in the Song family will be ours."

"This operation must be successful! No matter who blocks it, shoot to death!"

"Yes."

"."

With that said, several people disappeared from the room instantly.

And it wasn't just the Bai family who were staring at Hong Lou.

In the major private rooms and the performance hall, people from all the powerful families in the federation who are qualified to be called first-class families came in person.

At this moment, the gambling stall on the second floor.

A gentlemanly and steady middle-aged man was watching a fierce boxing match in a luxurious private room.

Ordinary people don't know this middle-aged man who rarely appears in public, but everyone in the political arena is familiar with him.

This is Robert Morton, the contemporary head of the Morton family, one of the five major federal congressmen!

One of the handful of people who stand at the pinnacle of federal power.

At this time, a young man suddenly broke in.

He said excitedly: "Father, the intelligence came in and it seems that Representative Keen wants to take action!"

When the middle-aged man heard this, he didn't care about the congressman at all.

His eyes suddenly stagnated while watching the game, as if he thought of something, and he muttered to himself in a daze: "Is that one gone?"

The young man saw his father distracted, waited for a moment, and reminded him: "Father? Congressman Keen's side."

Robert's thoughts seemed to return to reality.

His tone was flat and he couldn't hide his contempt, and responded: "Oh, that guy Keane is very ambitious. I'm afraid he doesn't have such a big life to support his ambition. Don't worry about him."

The young man was a little anxious about his father's attitude: "But Senator Keane is the most popular new member of the House of Representatives. Recently, he has united with a group of people to start a new banking industry, which is very popular. Moreover, they have secretly united with the god-stealer Bai There are some internal direct relations between the Song family and the Song family. If we really let him take over the resources in the hands of the Song family, it will be too late for us to take action. "

"Take it?"

Robbit seemed to have heard a joke and shook his head disapprovingly: "Do you really think 'that one' would know about the little trick that the second son of the Song family and Keen secretly played? It's okay that the other one is fine. She is holding him down. No one dares to move, and everything is calm. Now that he has passed away, these guys jumping up and down have appeared. But they are almost being dealt with."

When the young man heard this, he was puzzled: "Huh?"

He knew that his father's judgment was always prescient and would eventually prove to be right.

But that's why.

Just confused.

Robert brought his son here because he wanted the heir to the family to truly experience this big change at the top.

He did not hide his views, but his tone was not polite: "There are always new idiots who feel that they have a little power and want to break the division of interests of the original classes. Haha, since they want to die, let them try. That person has not appeared much in the past twenty years, which makes people think that she has little influence. If it had been earlier, let alone a new member of the Council, even the old men of the Senate would have met her. You all have to politely call me 'Miss Song'. Haha, do you really think that the Song family only has the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce? You young people don't know how powerful that hidden strength is. Only Grandpa You's generation has clearly experienced it. Woolen cloth."

The young man didn't understand what he was saying.

He did not doubt his father's judgment, but he was even more confused: "Father, who is really so powerful? But"

He didn't finish the second half of the sentence, but he obviously didn't seem to have heard how powerful it was.

Robert sighed and narrowed his eyes slightly: "That is a respectable elder and pioneer."

The young man frowned and became serious instantly.

It was also difficult for the young man to believe that his father, who he regarded as such a majestic and far-sighted man, mentioned "that one".

He even used honorifics?

Robert did not say directly, but asked: "Didn't you see that there is an old newspaper hanging in your grandfather's study?"

The young man didn't know why: "Yeah."

Robert smiled and said: "What is written in the most eye-catching position in the newspaper?"

Of course, the young man has a deep memory. Everyone in the Morton family knows: "When money stands up, all truth must kneel down."

"Correct!"

That sentence was still fresh in Robert's memory, and he said: "The sharp comment in the newspaper from the current affairs critic at that time is the 'that one'. The vision, skill and courage of that person back then were exactly like this A true portrayal of one sentence. She is a prostitute, but she is a powerful opponent that can overwhelm your grandfather and his group of old gentlemen."

When the young man heard this, he immediately became interested.

After pondering for a moment, Robert said in a recalling tone: "Sixty years ago, when all the nobles and congressmen of the Federation were still calculating the wealth of their own territories, she had already mastered it without everyone knowing it. The economic lifeline of the Federation. But what she is even more clever is that she can clearly earn countless times of benefits quietly, but she has allotted these benefits, including the seat of the Federal Bank’s money printing power, in vain.”

He couldn't hide the emotion in his tone, and the memories came flooding back.

Only those who have personally experienced that era can know how outrageous that Miss Song family was.

It makes people admire him from the bottom of his heart.

Robert continued: "I didn't understand it before. Your grandfather told me about this skill. What she wants is a win-win situation. As long as the entire federation becomes rich and circulates, she will become richer. This is the pattern of concepts. Gao, many people don't understand it until now. But you must know that when he first laid out the plan, it was nearly a hundred years ago! At that time, the lords only thought about being the emperor, which was the most important way to make money. , it is mining, hunting, or just robbing and exploiting the people of their own territory to earn the little money they are still complacent about. And that person has already laid out the financial field of the entire federation, including currency issuance, stocks, and futures. , public opinion, and monopoly of special resources.”

Young man: "Is this so powerful?"

"Do not."

Robert shook his head.

There was a stern look in his eyes, and he added: "It's only more powerful than what I said."

After a pause, the old gentleman sighed again: "And to a large extent, it is precisely because of her layout that the Federation is now prosperous. So we and your grandfather's generation have a certain affection for her. Respectfully. That is to say, she seems not to be interested in money games in recent years and has not shown up to do things much. Otherwise, just talking about the means in the financial field, let alone Kean, even the five major congressmen bundled together are no match for her. "

"what?"

Hearing this, the young man was extremely shocked.

At the same time, his eyes were full of energy.

He had never heard such high praise for a person from his father!

There is always an inexplicable admiration for powerful figures in this age group.

Listening to these legendary experiences, the young man wondered: "But Father, why haven't you heard of such a powerful person? At least he is not that famous."

Robert smiled and asked his son: "Do you want to say celebrity biographies? Or newspapers, textbooks? Or some 'rich list' created by boring reporters?"

"This"

Of course, youth refers to this.

But his father saw through it and didn't dare to answer.

Otherwise, people will always feel ignorant and frustrated.

Robert asked self -answering, which meant deeply: "Because. Now there is the shadow of the Song family behind all the mainstream newspaper groups in the Federation." "Ah?"

When the young man heard this, his eyes lit up.

I understood instantly.

Public opinion is controlled!

It's so clever to see the whole body at a glance!

How did that person do it?

At this point, Robert's eyes also concealed depth, and he continued: "Moreover, if you are really at the level of our family, you need to see more. Money is only part of it. The connections that are laid out invisibly are the real thing. Awesome. Big interests will inevitably tie up power and force. How many connections do you think she has built during the more than a hundred years she has been alive? On the contrary, those arrogant fools who are greedy for pleasure now in the Song family do not know how powerful the old grandmother in their family is. . I really thought that if she didn’t take care of things on the stage these years, the knife wouldn’t be sharp anymore.”

As he spoke, he looked at his son, whose eyes were shining, and taught: "I didn't tell you before because you were too young and didn't understand the hidden murderous intent of this level of gaming. It requires extremely high vision and insight to see through those layouts. . I am also afraid that you will feel that there is a mountain that cannot be climbed, and that you cannot understand. Now that she has passed away, many people really dare to breathe a sigh of relief."

How could I not admire him so much back then? It's so dazzling that you can't look straight at it.

Only those who really know the inside story will feel that her layouts are completely out of this backward era and are so high that they are unattainable.

That person came out of nowhere and overwhelmed everyone in the Federation in the financial field for two entire eras!

Robert thought about those years and couldn't help but sigh: "In those years, in the financial field, no matter the structure, vision, or skills, who didn't feel the suffocating oppression of the Song family."

"So, Senator Keane is dead?"

When the young man heard this, he realized how one-sided he had seen.

No wonder his father wasn't worried at all, that's why.

But his face was also full of excitement, and he even felt like his hair was about to explode.

Just listening to this big situation makes people excited.

He always has the urge to show off his skills in big waves.

Robert said: "Yes. Not to mention that he is a small member of the House of Representatives. Maybe some of the restless members of the five major members will have to fight against him."

He looked at his son in front of him, as if he had seen through everything, and said: "The situation this time is in deep water. I don't even understand it. We, the Morton family, try our best not to get involved this time. The people you have arranged are safe and sound. Just a little."

"Yes, my father."

The young man was now convinced and responded respectfully.

In comparison, he realized that his previous "layouts" were really like child's play.

Robert said: "In any case, she has made an indelible contribution to the prosperity of the Federation today. That's why I say she is a senior and elder worthy of admiration. Although no one received the invitation, she came. It’s time to send that person off. This time, you should watch carefully and see what her layout is like. Even if she dies, some people will tremble. If you can understand even a little bit, that’s enough for you. It will last a lifetime.”

As he spoke, he added: "And I feel that as the Old Continent is developed and deepened, the Federation will also change."

The young man thought about those words and said respectfully: "Yes, Father."

But after finishing speaking, doubts appeared in Robert's sharp eyes that seemed to see through everything, and he muttered to himself: "It's strange why she is dying and has to go to this remote innocent city?"

Ji Xun walked out of the room.

At the door, Mr. Jiu, dressed in a black suit, was still standing there upright.

He seemed to have known the outcome for a long time. He was wearing the most solemn suit today just to see that person off on his last journey.

Seeing Ji Xun come out, Mr. Jiu seemed to have aged a lot in an instant, his turbid eyes also dimmed, and he murmured in his heart: "The lady is gone."

Ji Xun sensed the decline of the old man's vitality.

But before he could speak, Ji Xun suddenly felt a sense of "malice".

Mr. Jiu obviously noticed it and snorted coldly.

At this moment, several ghost figures suddenly appeared in the void, rushing towards the room behind Ji Xun.

"roll!"

Mr. Jiu shouted sharply, and green magic power surged out from his body.

But just as he was about to take action, two hands suddenly stretched out from his neck and blocked his neck.

A large sealing seal was poured from the arm, instantly sealing Mr. Jiu's spell power before it could be released.

At the same time, strange laughter came: "Jie Jie Jie, old man, stay well!"

When Ji Xun saw this scene, his heart immediately trembled: "The Bai family's secret body technique?"

At the same time, he also understood why these guys wanted to rush into the room!

Although Song Yu's body had been disintegrated, Ji Xun's eyes turned cold when he saw the behavior of these guys.

Mr. Jiu who can instantly suppress at least level 5, the opponent is definitely level 6.

In other words, the top master of the Bai family is here!

"Well done to you Bai family!"

Ji Xun snorted in his heart.

Although there were some minor conflicts before, he felt that it was a conflict of legitimate competition.

Now all my good impressions of the Bai family are gone in an instant.

He also said that he would send back the things left by the ancestor of the Bai family.

Looking at it now, even if the oath backfires on me, it is absolutely impossible!

Just when his thoughts changed, something unexpected happened again.

The moment Mr. Jiu was stopped, those ghosts were already heading towards the room.

That’s not an evil spirit!

But the "fairy family" of the Bai family!

Ji Xun looked stern, even though the enemy was very strong, he did not dodge, but just when he was about to take action, something unexpected happened.

A man in a cloak appeared beside him out of thin air.

Before Ji Xun could clearly see what was going on, the cloaked man suddenly suppressed the entire audience with the domineering aura of a god descending from heaven, and punched the ghost figures with one punch.

The force of the fist swept away with an aura of destruction.

Several ghost figures on the opposite side were blasted in two in an instant, and at the same time, an unexpected shout came from the ghost figure: "Legendary strong man!"

The Bai family came prepared, but it wasn't that they didn't have the strength to fight.

But since a legendary powerhouse appears here, it means that the Song family has been prepared.

This kind of battle is meaningless!

"damn it!"

Seeing that the situation was not going well, the ghost spat, hurriedly ran towards the elevator, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The cloaked man watched but did not pursue him.

The battle started suddenly and ended suddenly.

At this time, Mr. Jiu's arm on his neck was also cut off, and it fell to the ground and turned into a pool of pus and blood.

Ji Xun looked at this scene with a slightly stern expression.

Having read the letters left by Song Yu before, he knew why the people from the Bai family came here.

The Song family is such a giant, and now many people have ideas about it.

It's definitely not just the Bai family.

When Ji Xun was thinking, the cloaked man next to him turned his head and said, "You will be in trouble if you stay here. I am here. You leave first."

"Ah."

Although he didn't show his face, Ji Xun recognized him just now. If this cloaked man wasn't Qin Ruzui after seeing him for a long time, who was he?

Although he didn't understand why a deputy leader of the revolutionary army was here,

But I also know that now is not the time to reminisce about the past.

If he stays here, the problem will be huge.

Ji Xun didn't say much, and took the elevator downstairs without even asking Mr. Jiu to follow him.

He had no intention of leaving Honglou.

I want to wait and see how the Song family arranges the funeral.

Ji Xun wanted to accompany her on the last journey and send a bouquet of roses to her grave.

Unconsciously, we arrived at the first floor, which happened to be a performance by the Royal Song and Dance Troupe.

It is still the play that is still fresh in my memory - "The Swan of Best Lake".

The news of the death of the talkative person in the Song family has not yet spread, but there is still singing and dancing here.

Ji Xun didn't attract anyone's attention and blended into the crowd.

Before, I only thought the actors' performances on stage were wonderful, but now it's a different experience.

The first stage play the two of them watched was one she would remember for the rest of her life.

"Ji Xun, which actor do you think is the prettiest~"

"Wow, Mr. Ji Xun, it turns out you like plump ones~"

"."

Looking at the stage play that was exactly the same as it was a hundred years ago, the girl's voice echoed in my memory.

Ji Xun had a very strange feeling.

He had never felt like he had at this moment, as if he had sensed the actor's deeper emotions, not just the ones performed, but also the joy, anger, sorrow and joy in his heart.

In that state, it's like your understanding of the world is clear.

Not only can I see it, but I can also feel it. For the first time, I can truly experience the complex emotions that normal people have.

As he was watching, Ji Xun suddenly glanced out of the corner of his eye and seemed to see a familiar figure.

Take a closer look.

That iconic mushroom head seems to be Jia Yu?

And the strange thing is that at this moment, everyone in his eyes seemed to be characters in a movie, shadowy.

Only that guy came into view like a living person.

"what"

Ji Xun suddenly broke away from that state of realization.

As soon as he rolled his eyes, he realized something was wrong.

It can't be a coincidence that this person appears here.

After all, Ji Xun himself still has a jar of pollution involving the old god "Scarlet Corruption Seiadis".

Or maybe this guy's appearance here has something to do with the Song family?

Whatever it is, the stakes are high.

Ji Xun thought and walked over.

In an inconspicuous position in the corridor on the second floor, he saw Mushroom Head leaning on the railing watching a stage play.

It turned out to be Jia Yu.

The mushroom head still looked like a harmless boy, with an innocent smile on his face, as if he was watching the show seriously.

Even now, Ji Xun couldn't see any flaws in that face.

It was as if this was really an ordinary person, with no trace of the legendary leader of the Thirteen Kamen Riders.

Ji Xun walked over and lay down on the railing.

The mushroom head glanced at him, smiled brightly, and greeted him enthusiastically: "Mr. Ji Xun, long time no see."

As he said that, he seemed to have seen through something, and added: "You seem to be very sad. But... you are in good condition."

Ji Xun's eyes narrowed slightly as he listened.

Although he had guessed it, he still asked the question that he was curious about for the first time: "Are you a Light Chaser?"

The mushroom head didn't deny it, but he also said something that made people confused: "I am the "Light Chaser." But the light chaser is not me. "

　I just got @ by a friend and learned that there is a reward from the leader. I would like to thank the boss of "Nine-Storey Pagoda" for the reward of 100,000 coins, and also thank all the book friends for their rewards during this period.

　　Old book friends all know that in the past, the author was rewarded with ten thousand rewards and more updates. But later I discovered that I was handicapped and always failed to finish the work and failed to meet everyone’s expectations. So if I don’t have the ability, I won’t be rewarded, and I’ve never asked for this book.

　　But the leader must definitely add more updates. When the plot goes smoothly, he will try to add more updates as much as possible.

　　Thanks again to Mr. Futu for your love!
