Cataclysm King

Chapter 566 Healing
Ji Xun followed the traces of the scent and destroyed several assassin contact points, then leisurely returned to the Mining Union Building.

When we arrived, the battle here had already ended.

The whole city was snowing, and the buildings in the two blocks here were frozen into crystal clear ice sculptures.

There was a biting chill in the air.

Ji Xun sensed the strength of the law in the cold air. Although he had expected it, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Chujiu is really strong. But then again, the law of kingship is really overbearing."

This is not simply the law of extreme cold, but also the law of royal power.

It was like a spell that ignored defense and penetrated through. Even Ji Xun's protective qi couldn't completely block it, let alone others.

As soon as Ji Xun came back, he suddenly felt a pair of eyes looking at him from above.

He leaped up to the clock tower in the dilapidated factory, breathing out white air. There, a beautiful woman in a white corset was looking around vigilantly.

She wasn't surprised to see someone jump up.

Ji Xun smiled and greeted, "Miss Bai, long time no see."

The woman in white nodded: "Yes."

It was none other than the Dark Peacock.

This person's talent of the Divine Light of Annihilation is also specifically designed to restrain various elemental fields.

Nan Jing used spiritual power to bring her over. It seemed that after the will of the "Elemental King Lagros" descended, she must have been beaten a lot.

Ming Kongque didn't like dealing with humans. Seeing Ji Xun coming up, she lost interest in staying after chatting for a few words and said, "The environment here makes me uncomfortable. Now that you're here, I'll go back to the castle first."

"Ah."

Ji Xun smiled and nodded, not caring.

After all, she was a lord who came from the Dead Zone. Coming to the elementally barren Eastern Wasteland was like a fish coming to the shore, where even breathing was difficult.

Compared to other places, the peacock and the two elemental elves now prefer to stay in the Royal Tomb Castle in Rune Highlands.

As he spoke, Peacock greeted Nan Jing below, and in the blink of an eye his figure disappeared into the spiritual formation.

Ji Xun didn't go down to join in the fun either.

Chujiu is enthroning those members of the forbidden spell caster family.

In a way, this assassination was actually a good thing.

As Chujiu said, when her brother who sat on the throne of Oran attacked her, he also acknowledged her status as a contender for the throne.

The ceremony of the "Battle of Two Kings" officially kicked off.

The dynastic fortune of the Oran Dynasty will also flow to her, the contender for the throne.

Moreover, after this assassination, the members of the Herlands family, headed by Rick, were probably completely convinced by the exiled princess.

The terrifying strength of the [White Queen] not only proved the legitimacy of her royal power, but also dispelled all the doubts that people had about her strength before.

Moreover, Chujiu has the [Secret Book of Imperial Enthronement] of the Augustus royal family.

This relic of the royal fortune handed down from the Tarun Dynasty, once canonized, will be more meaningful than the official position of the Oran royal family.

Because that is related to - blessing of luck!
It is visible to the naked eye that not only has the royal power destiny of Chujiu improved qualitatively;

And those from the Herlands family are even worse.

When they were exiled to Rig City, their luck had been completely exhausted and they looked like a dead ash; but in the blink of an eye, they became like new sprouts emerging from the soil, full of vibrant new vitality.

Ji Xun’s own name was in that secret book, and he knew how far-reaching the influence of this destiny could be on people.

This is the supreme "law of destiny" of the universe.

The royal power's "vassal" ability is almost the fastest way in the world to change the fate of a person or a family.

After the enthronement, it had an indescribable positive impact on those card masters like Rick who were deeply tied to the royal power.

Watching the enthronement ceremony not far from the bell tower, Ji Xun saw many destinies being rewritten.

And then extended into the future.

Including Reni from the God-Playing Clan and the current Hellandes family from the Forbidden Spell Master Clan, there are already two of the four great knights under King Augustus, and Chujiu already has two of them.

The royal destiny is becoming more and more stable.

In Ji Xun's eyes, he seemed to have seen the future in which the White Queen would ascend the throne.

Recruiting the thousand people from the Herlands family would actually be of very limited help to Chujiu.

But what is really important is the subsequent impact of this incident.

The families of His Majesty's Four Knights are deeply tied to the Oran Royal Court, and the family marriages are so complicated that they almost involve the entire Oran Royal Court.

Seeing the Herlands family change their ways this time also gave other old servants of Oran a choice.

In the past, they had to be bound to the Royal Family of Oran because of an ancient oath contract. Even though they knew that King Arthur's use of foreign gods would bring huge hidden dangers, they could only follow one path to the end.

But it's different now.

The exiled princess Chujiu gave them a choice.

The enthronement ceremony went smoothly.

After the previous assassination attempt failed, Ji Xun immediately took down several key intelligence outlets, and the Oran Royal Court probably hasn't reacted yet.

Moreover, the leader of the Black Knife Organization was captured and almost all of its elite members were killed. It would be difficult for them to organize killers in a short period of time.

However, he probably won't come.

Assassination is all about surprise attack and killing with one strike.

Since he hasn't been killed yet after all the careful preparations, there's not much point in rushing back.

After the enthronement ceremony, except for Rick and some elite fighters who stayed behind to guard around the ninth day, all other human beings of the Herlands family left Rig City.

Most of those who left were the elderly, the weak, women and children. This was about to be the battlefield of a decisive battle, and they had to go to more remote places to ensure their safety.

Chujiu's ultimate plan is to migrate them to the Old World.

There have always been top masters among the King's Knights, so there are actually quite a few talented people in the Herlands family.

But the Eastern Wilderness is too barren.

This limits their growth ceiling.

Moreover, the new king Arthur has now released two of the Seven Calamity Lords. Once they get out of control, the Eastern Wasteland may very likely become a polluted land in the future.

Taking the Old Continent as the main development area of ​​the future kingdom is also the most reasonable choice.

Just like the original Taren Empire.

After the enthronement, Ji Xun and his group did not continue to stay in Rige City, but went to camp in the suburbs.

After all, their position had been exposed. The city was full of Silver Moon believers. Although they posed no threat, it was not good to be watched all the time.

Originally, if there were only Ji Xun and the other two, they could have just pitched a tent anywhere.

But now there are dozens more people, and things have become much more complicated.

Moreover, the dignity of the royal family is still needed.

Although Chujiu doesn't care about those details, the king's knights like Rick cannot be vague.

A group of people set up more than a dozen tents, with special officials, guards, cooks and maids.
The camp was very lively.

Ji Xun was not interested in the hustle and bustle, so he stayed in the tent to practice.

Before I knew it, night had fallen.

The camp they chose was in a forest formed by an abandoned mine, and it was quiet all around.

In the tent, Ji Xun was still counting the previous spoils.

It has to be said that the assassins of the Black Blade Organization really brought too many treasures, and they were all good relics with extremely strong practicality in combat.

Ji Xun counted them one by one, memorized the functions of the relics, and also wanted to analyze some information from them.

The few people who were captured alive have been interrogated, but not much useful intelligence was obtained.

The Black Blade Organization is a professional intelligence organization with a strict structure. Even the elite members only know fragmentary information.

The remaining leader of the dark elf "Emperor Shadow" can definitely be dug deeper.

But Ji Xun was not sure that he could get the information after waking her up and ensure that she would not die.

I plan to try again when Nanjing is free.

After all, the girl with the bun is a professional when it comes to the messages in the soul.

It was very late when we waited.

Being a king is more than just a title, there are many things to deal with.

Especially now that the war is imminent, Chujiu has a lot of arrangements to make. How to subdue those old ministers of Taren as peacefully as possible is a very complicated matter.

There are also plans for the future kingdom, arrangements for the subjects, etc.
As the high priest, Nan Jing also has to help deal with it.

Ji Xun thought of Catalina, the leader of the allied forces who was also very busy all day.

He thought about his own personality and realized that he had no interest in power at all.

The magic lamp in the tent was emitting a dim yellow light, and Ji Xun was flipping through a pile of confiscated information.

Behind the assassins of the Black Blade Organization are families, especially the dark elf leader.

There are many secret books related to the dark elves in her storage ring.

These are rare books that cannot be found anywhere else. Ji Xun is particularly interested in the scrolls written in the ancient elven language.

As I was looking at it, the curtain of the tent opened.

Chujiu and Nanjing walked in.

Finally finished.

As soon as she entered the tent, the lady with the ball-head hair couldn't hold her serious face anymore and she muttered, "Oh, I'm so tired. I really dealt with so many things today."

Chujiu's expression was as calm as ever.

Ji Xun smiled and called the two girls over, saying, "Are you done? I have something to tell you."

As he said that, he threw the captured Black Knife leader "Diying" out of the oil painting space.

When Nan Jing saw the dark-skinned creature with pointed ears, he was also surprised and said, "So it's a dark elf. No wonder."

Even the high priest Nan Clan saw the true form of "Emperor Shadow" for the first time.

Nan Jing of course knew what Ji Xun meant, so he prepared to use soul-searching methods to gather information.

But at this moment, a muffled groan was suddenly heard in the tent.

Ji Xun and Nan Jing suddenly turned their heads and looked at Chujiu with blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, and their brows furrowed.

They knew that this was due to injuries from the previous assassination.

Although it was not fatal, it was far from as easy as it looked.

After holding on for a whole day without anyone around, Chujiu finally showed signs of fatigue on his face.

Nan Jing hurried over, supported her and asked with concern, "Sister Chujiu?"

"I'm fine." Chujiu shook his head, indicating that there was nothing serious wrong with him.

However, Ji Xun didn't take it lightly and asked without hesitation: "That dagger is very evil. Let Xiaonan help you check the wound."

Nan Jing nodded and replied, "Yes."

The injuries that even the Holy Grail of Kingship could not heal could only be caused by divine contamination.

Chujiu couldn't resist and could only lie down on the bed.

Nan Jing undressed her and immediately saw the unhealed wound on her sternum.

Although there was no bleeding, one could see with the naked eye a trace of strange black gas emanating from the wound.

Nan Jing took a look and breathed a sigh of relief.

Although it was not fatal, she also muttered: "It was the divine erosion of the Elemental King Lagros, and the magic-breaking pollution of the dagger. Sister Chujiu, why didn't you tell me?"

Chujiu just said calmly: "It's nothing serious. It will be fine in a few days."

Nan Jing was not going to spoil this childhood playmate, and retorted: "Not at all. If this injury is not treated in time, it will be contaminated by the power of the Elemental King Lagros. Even if the wound heals in the future, it will have a negative impact on your Extreme Cold Law."

Then, she said in a tone that could not be refused: "Sister Chujiu, lie down well. I will help you deal with it."

Chujiu didn't know what to say, so he just lay down obediently.

All potions were useless in treating injuries of this severity. Nan Jing could only take out the sealing scroll and try to extract the polluting divinity bit by bit.

At the same time, she had seen through the wound and said, "It's really dangerous. The assassin didn't actually want to kill you, but to contaminate the descent of the gods. The elemental king Lagros wanted to use you as the body of the descent of the gods. It's a good thing that he didn't stab your heart, otherwise it would be troublesome."

Ji Xun didn't seem too surprised.

He had suspected this before.

Chujiu is protected by the Holy Grail, so the possibility of being killed is very low.

On the contrary, pollution control is more feasible.

"."

The ninth day remained silent.

Assassination, how can there be no risk?

The three of them actually understood.

And they can accept the consequences.

But they were partners after all, and Nan Jing couldn't help but mutter, "Sister Chujiu, you really don't care about yourself at all."

The therapist didn't avoid Ji Xun in the tent at all, but he didn't look at him for long.

After hearing what Nan Jing said, he suddenly thought of something and asked, "By the way, where did that dagger come from?"

Nan Jing obviously knew the origin and said, "This should be the [Tyr's Dagger]."

After saying so, she dug out the dagger that was covered with seals.

Ji Xun felt very familiar with the name and asked, "What is the relationship between this dagger and the magic sword [Tyrfront]?"

Nan Jing said, "It was made from the same ore. There was a piece of magic gold [God's Meteorite Black Iron] in the Talen Treasury, which was said to be obtained from the Mythical Battlefield. His Majesty Krosa (the Mad King) ordered the Lava Dwarf Godsmith to forge the [God-killing Demon Sword Tyr'front]. After the forging was completed, there was still a little left, so it was forged into a dagger... The magic iron used for forging is said to be cursed gold after the gods fell, and it has several rule-level characteristics such as "cause and effect are inevitable", "destroying the gods' domain and killing gods", and "wounds will not heal". It will also pollute people's hearts."

When the Talen Empire was established, in order to prevent excessive concentration of power, many positions were set up in a relationship of checks and balances.

So the high priest does not know everything.

Then she added: "But no one knows the whereabouts of the dagger. Now it seems that it should have been in the hands of Emperor Ying all along."

"."

After listening to this popular science explanation, Ji Xun also showed a look of enlightenment.

Of course he knew why he had never heard of such a powerful weapon before.

Because I saw "Xie Guozhong" use it before, this kind of magic gold dagger needs to be soaked in divine blood before it can be activated.

And the cost to the user is not small.

At least this "Emperor Shadow" is now half dead.

Half of them were caused by Ji Xun, and the other half was backlash.

Ji Xun played with the dagger in his hand, whose red light had dimmed, but soon lost interest.

The divinity dissipated, just like the [Useless Greatsword] at the beginning, it was just a piece of hard magic iron.

Speaking of daggers, Nan Jing also followed up the topic to explain the origins of the Black Knife Organization.

Occasionally when asked about Chujiu, she would also tell some secrets that only the royal family knew.

Ji Xun also listened with great interest.

I have to say that the heritage of the Oran Royal Court is truly beyond reproach.

The Tarun Empire left too much inheritance to this son.

If the Illuminati Hermitage had not directly participated in the battle two hundred years ago, with such a foundation, the Federation Army might not have been able to win.

In the tent, the three of them chatted as usual.

If any other eighth-level person had suffered the injuries Chujiu suffered, he would have died eight hundred times already.

Because she is protected by the Holy Grail, her life will not be in any danger.

But it’s really troublesome to treat.

Divine pollution is simply not something that a mortal's body can metabolize and heal on its own. Ji Xun had been contaminated by the Silver Moon divine power before, and it took Nan Jing nearly half a month to deal with it.

Also, the dagger's ability to not heal wounds is very troublesome.

Chujiu's injuries were much more serious than Ji Xun's before.

In the current situation, millions of troops from the Oran Royal Court have gathered here, and if the injury is delayed any further, it will be a potential risk.

Nan Jing treated the wound very patiently, but couldn't help complaining, "Ah, why is there so much miscellaneous elemental contamination in Lagros's divine power? At this rate, it will take more than a month to fix it. Sister Chujiu is really something. If you had told me earlier, it would have been much easier to handle."

"."

Although Chujiu appears to be the cold and arrogant King Augustus in front of outsiders, he loses his temper when being scolded in front of his friends.

Ji Xun also found it interesting.

The personalities of these two women during the day are indeed in stark contrast to their current personalities.

Just as he was thinking, Nan Jing seemed to have thought of a good idea, and asked, "By the way, Ji Xun, can't your [True Solution of All Things] just decompose elemental pollution?"

Although he said he was asking, he actually didn't expect Ji Xun to answer.

The girl with the ball head suddenly asked Chujiu: "Sister Chujiu, how about asking him to help me deal with it? This way, the progress will be much faster."

Ji Xun raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

This bun-haired lady is now very familiar to me and of course she won’t be polite to me.

I don’t know if she wanted to be lazy or wanted to play a trick on Chujiu, but she said it anyway.

There was silence in the tent for a moment, but Chujiu responded calmly: "Yes. Then I'll trouble Ji Xun."

Hearing this, Nan Jing turned his head and called out to Ji Xun who was flipping through the classics, with a sly glint in his eyes.

Ji Xun smiled helplessly.

Since Chujiu had spoken, he didn't hesitate and walked straight over.

The three of them were not so shy about talking to each other.

We have always lived together, and I have seen a lot of beautiful spring scenery.

Moreover, Nan Jing is now almost not shy about helping Ji Xun suppress the witch's distortion. Chujiu doesn't mind, and neither Ji Xun nor Nan Jing minds.

Ji Xun walked over and saw at a glance that Chujiu's shirt was open, revealing the wound on his sternum.

Chujiu's skin was exceptionally fair, her chest wasn't very big, and it was lying flat, with only slight rise and fall.

However, although most of the spring scenery was exposed, the key parts were still covered by clothes.

Ji Xun didn't avoid it on purpose, he just watched it anyway.

Seeing the scrutinizing gaze falling on his chest, Chujiu had no different expression.

Ji Xun just took a look and walked to the other side of the bed, helping Nan Jing to treat the wound very seriously.

This guy with a bun on his head is a professional doctor, and that’s not a joke.

Chujiu's injury is indeed quite troublesome.

The divinity of the Elemental King Lagros is mixed with a large amount of pollution from high-level elemental laws, including almost all elements such as earth, wind, water, fire, gold, wood, etc.

The extreme cold law of the ninth day of the lunar calendar is in conflict with those laws and is also polluted.

To get rid of it, it feels like separating the colors that have already blended together on the drawing board, one by one, and then picking them out and decomposing them one by one.

It’s a headache just thinking about it.

Ji Xun's ability is just right for decomposing things quickly.

With his help, the progress was indeed much faster.

Just like the usual time when the three of them were together, the atmosphere in the tent did not change because of the little bit of spring light.

Ji Xun did not look around, and even if he occasionally caught a glimpse of the spring scenery, he would appreciate it quietly without any hesitation.

Chujiu didn't seem to care.

No one spoke at first, and the atmosphere was relaxed and harmonious.

However, Miss Bun Hair found such a serious atmosphere a bit boring.

They are the closest of partners. They eat and sleep together on weekdays, and there is no alienation between them.

Her eyes flashed cunningly, and she suddenly asked: "Ji Xun, what do you think of Sister Chujiu's figure?"

"."

Ji Xun knew that she was up to no good, so he didn't reply.

Chujiu was also speechless: "."

"Hahaha"

Nan Jing seemed to be very interested in Chujiu's frustrated look. It was a rare opportunity to tease her, so she would not miss it easily. Thinking of something, she boldly poked her chest with her fingers.

Originally, this intimate behavior was no big deal for two best friends who often bathed together.

But Nan Jing poked it herself, and didn’t forget to secretly glance at Ji Xun. She was afraid that the other two didn’t know what she meant, so she raised her eyebrows and snorted: “Hmm?”

Maybe it’s because she unlocked a lot of knowledge with Ji Xunhuan, this girl with the bun hair has become a lot bolder. Her expression seems to be saying, you are familiar with mine, why not try Sister Chujiu’s, it’s very different.

But the tent is so small, and the perception of the top-level card master is so sharp.

Of course Chujiu noticed it.

But she couldn't walk while lying down, so she simply closed her eyes and let him tease her.
