Cataclysm King

Chapter 80 Reminiscing with Miss Ball Head

The City of Innocence is huge, and Ji Xun never expected such a coincidence that he would run into his few acquaintances at the Windmill Hotel.

Hearing people greet him proactively, he couldn't pretend not to know each other, and said, "Miss Nan Jing?"

Seeing that he had identified the right person, Nan Jing couldn't hide his surprise, and said, "Ah, it's really Mr. Ji Xun. I wasn't sure just now."

There is no friendship that is more memorable than experiencing life and death together.

This psychic lady has a deep memory of her savior.

Ji Xun also asked curiously: "Miss Nan Jing, why are you here?"

Glancing at her two companions, there was no old friend Chu Jiu.

Although he guessed that the three of them would most likely go to the [Greedy Mine] different-dimensional space in the windmill hotel for the past few years, he was also a little curious, why did they go?
Nan Jing replied without hesitation: "Ah, we saw the recruitment at the Hunter's Guild, so we are going."

But before she finished speaking, the black knight man who was traveling with her interrupted sharply: "Xiao Nan!"

This is obviously a reminder.

Probably want to say, don't talk too much with strangers.

"."

Ji Xun also heard the alertness in the words, and raised his eyebrows.

He knew Nan Jing and had a foundation of trust.

But her two companions seemed wary.

Ji Xun didn't care either.

He knew that the origins of Chujiu and Nanjing were very sensitive.

Then these two are her companions, so naturally they came from the same place.

The ranger huntress cleverly turned the doubt into a test, and asked, "Xiao Nan, who is this?"

Nan Jing excitedly wanted to introduce: "A Yao, this is Mr. Ji Xun, he is."

But when the words came to her lips, she seemed to think of something, but she didn't know how to introduce it.

They met in the labyrinth of the Great Cemetery, but that extra-dimensional space is related to the death of Governor Cao Sihai and the assassination of Chu Jiu.

But without an explanation, it seems wrong.

And her awkward demeanor, in the eyes of the two companions, was even more out of place.

They are companions, compared to the man in front of him is an outsider.

Is there any secret to hide?

Both of them knew that Nan Jing was simple and kind-hearted, and could be easily deceived.

Looking at her demeanor again, the impression of the strange man in front of her has already been deducted a few points.

Ji Xun looked at Nan Jing's bitter look, and knew that her head would be burnt dry and she didn't know how to explain this relationship, so he took the initiative to relieve the siege: "I had a relationship with Miss Nan Jing once."

Hearing this, Nan Jing felt amnesty and said, "Yes. Mr. Ji Xun is my friend."

At this moment, she finally realized why she was in a predicament when she hesitated and couldn't tell when she asked how Chu Jiu and Ji Xun met.

Obviously there is nothing, but there are some things that cannot be said.

As she said that, she didn't worry about Ji Xun's identity, but instead introduced: "These two are my partners, A Yao and Mo Feng."

Nam Kyung introduced the two of them.

But apparently her two companions were reluctant to have their names introduced to strangers.

Not even a polite response.

Ji Xun didn't care at all.

It seems that the people in the mysterious place behind Chujiu are wary of strangers.

When I met Nan Jing for the first time in the labyrinth of the Great Cemetery, this lady psychic had the same attitude of seeing everyone as a bad person.

Ji Xun nodded politely, and said directly: "Miss Nanjing, I'm going back to my room first."

Even if something was explained, these two people would never believe it.

He didn't want to pry into other people's privacy, nor did he want to know what happened to the two of them.

I am not interested in this kind of invalid social interaction, so I will not waste my time.

As he said that, he turned his head and left.

"Boom", "Boom", "Boom".
The only sound in the empty hotel lobby was the sound of boots trampling on the wooden stairs.

This behavior seems a bit "arrogant" to others.

Nan Jing's two partners frowned.

The psychic lady also felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange, and quickly explained: "Ayao, don't mind Mo Feng, Mr. Ji Xun is actually a very nice person."

It’s okay if you don’t talk about it, the expressions of the two of them are even more strange
it is good?
Can there be good people in Innocence City?

Both of them looked at the past with serious eyes.

A Yao asked again: "Xiao Nan, what is the background of that person? How did you know each other?"

After all, their identities are too sensitive, and they must be careful everywhere.

ha?
What background?
When Nan Jing was asked this question, his mind turned rapidly again, and he hesitated: "I am him."

But after thinking about it for a long time, she also realized that she didn't know what Ji Xun did at all.

And I can't say how we met.

She really couldn't answer these two questions at all.

Nan Jing's eyes dodged, and then he smiled awkwardly: "Ah, Mr. Ji Xun is a lone hunter."

Some people can spot a lie at a glance.

Especially a girl like Nan Jing who would blush when lying to her companions.

This answer made the two companions feel very bad.

Mo Feng's expression darkened in an instant, and he said, "Xiao Nan, it's best not to get in touch with people of unknown origin like this."

A Yao also said earnestly: "Yes, you should not trust a stranger too easily, for fear that the other party has some other plans."

Nan Jing understood the strange look in her companion's eyes, and knew that she had misunderstood, but she couldn't explain it, so she could only turn around and say, "Oh, don't ask. Anyway, Mr. Ji Xun is really nice."

This is not only because Ji Xun saved his own and Chu Jiu's lives.

She couldn't explain it, so she could only talk about business, and said: "And he is very powerful. This time I should also go to [Greedy Mine]. With him, even if the challenge is more difficult, the probability of clearing the level will be greater. "

Seeing that their companions were hiding some things and were unwilling to talk about it, it was hard for A Yao and the two of them to ask too many questions.

But after hearing Nan Jing say that this person is very powerful, A Yao's expression softened a little, and she asked, "Is that person a card master? What occupational sequence?"

If you are a master, going to the space of [Greedy Mine] is really helpful.

Nan Jing thought about it for a while, and said, "No. It seems to be a card master apprentice."

The two companions were speechless.

The black knight Mo Feng didn't like that person's arrogant attitude just now, but now he is even more disdainful.

How powerful can a card master apprentice be?
A Yao's expression was not very good, and she asked again: "What occupation sequence is that person?"

Nan Jing was very embarrassed when asked: "I don't know."

Only then did she realize that besides knowing that Mr. Ji Xun was very good at solving puzzles, she didn't even know what career sequence he took.

It seems that from the beginning to the end, he has never seen him fight.

Mo Feng finally couldn't help it, and reminded: "Xiao Nan, some people only talk about bragging. When you are in real danger, you will find that kind of guy is useless."

"."

Nan Jing wanted to refute, but held back.

My mind is already in chaos, and I don't know how to explain it.

A Yao shook her head and said, "Forget it. Let's go to bed early too. We have to get up early tomorrow."

When asked, they didn't know anything, their companions were not deceived, what was it?
The three of them didn't speak, and went upstairs with their tactical backpacks on their backs.

Ji Xun heard the sound of footsteps, and the three of Nan Jing seemed to be in the two rooms next to him.

He didn't pay any attention to it, and while practicing the breathing method cross-legged on the bed, he was distractedly reading various card master classics at the same time.

He didn't know anything about the conversation downstairs, and he didn't want to know.

Ji Xun now only feels that his time is simply not enough, and there are too many things to learn.

I also hope that [Greedy Mine] can produce some skill cards, which can save a lot of time for practicing martial arts.

Unconsciously time flies, it is several hours.

Ji Xun was completely immersed in practice and study.

I don't know when.

Duk, duk, duk came the knock on the door.

A soft voice outside the door asked: "Mr. Ji Xun, have you rested yet?"

Ji Xun listened to the knock on the door, and then his thoughts turned back.

Hearing it was Nan Jing, he got out of bed and opened the door.

Outside the door, the psychic lady was holding a pot of tea, bowed slightly, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry to disturb you. I happened to make some fruit tea, and I brought it because I thought that Mr. Ji Xun was not asleep. a little."

Ji Xun smiled and greeted: "Miss Nan Jing is too polite, please come in."

When Nan Jing raised his head, he was slightly taken aback.

She was a little surprised, and said, "Hey, this is the first time I've seen Mr. Ji Xun not wearing a gas mask."

As she said that, the ball-headed lady blinked her big watery eyes, and took another sneaky glance.

"Ah"

Ji Xun smiled and didn't notice that he wasn't wearing a mask.

It seems that the Maze of the Necropolis has been wearing a gas mask all the time.

But it doesn't matter.

This is not a stranger.

Inviting Nan Jing to enter the room, he closed the door.

The psychic lady didn't wear a gas mask either, she still had a cute ball head, and she had dimples on her cheeks when she smiled.

It's pretty, and it's also good-looking.

Ji Xun had seen her real face before, and was not too surprised.

It seemed that because they were not wearing hunter equipment, nor did they have a cloak to cover them up, the sense of separation between the two disappeared instantly.

Nan Jing was wearing a very common women's deer hunting suit, a brown tight top and elastic combat trousers.

Others wearing this kind of hunter clothes are a little loose, but the plump figure of this psychic lady is very slim.

The lines are graceful, the unique youthful atmosphere of girls and the beauty of exquisite figure are also displayed.

Ji Xun glanced at it out of the corner of his eye, but quickly restrained himself.

Nan Jing put the teacup on the table, poured it over, and said, "Sorry, Mr. Ji Xun, my companion did not mean anything malicious. Before."

Ji Xun smiled and shook his head, why would he care about this.

Ji Xun asked directly: "Miss Nanjing, why are you here? Are you also going to [Greedy Mine]?"

"Ah."

Without others, Nan Jing responded directly.

She said with a serious expression: "We are looking for a potion formula to treat a special plague. I have seen it in ancient books before, but it has been lost. So we have been looking for clues in the Hunter Guild to see if there are certain ancient ruins. I recently heard that [Greedy Mine] has some ancient witch potion formulas in the alien space, so I want to try it."

"Oh."

It turned out to be for the medicine formula.

Ji Xun didn't ask after listening.

Figured the group behind her had some kind of plague.

The expression is still so serious, the plague is also very serious.

Although this is an extraordinary world, disease and plague are still fatal threats that cannot be completely solved for human beings.

Nan Jing also asked: "Mr. Ji Xun, how about you?"

Ji Xun said casually: "I'm going to find some materials. I heard that there are skill cards in that space, so I want to try my luck."

"Wow, what a coincidence."

Nan Jing also thought it was a coincidence.

The city of innocence is so big, and the hunter union has so many missions, yet they encountered it in a small hotel.

She poured the tea and brought it over, "Mr. Ji Xun, please drink tea."

Ji Xun got the teacup and was not used to being so polite, "You can just call me by my name. You don't have to be so polite."

Nan Jing let out a groan, blinked and said, "You can also call me by my name, or Xiao Nan. That's what everyone calls me."

Ji Xun nodded: "Yes."

He found that Miss Ballhead was very defensive when she didn't know her, but after building a foundation of trust, her personality was still very cheerful.

The two are not strangers, but they are not particularly familiar either.

As soon as two sentences are said, it seems that the topic is over.

The atmosphere in the room was slightly awkward.

At this time, Nan Jing looked at the open books on the bed and asked in surprise, "Mr. Ji Xun is still reading at such a late hour?"

You know, in the city of innocence, very few hunters would choose to waste their time reading books.

The hunters took their lives to explore the cave, and every time they survived, it was like a gift of fate.

In the spare time, it is not enough to get drunk in the Fengyue Tavern, so how can I have time to read any idle books.

After she finished speaking, she thought of something and patted her head: "Oh, I almost forgot. You already know Tarun's ancient language. With such profound knowledge, you must read a lot of books."

Ji Xun smiled and didn't explain.

As Nan Jing said, he seemed to have something to ask, turned his crystal eyes, and said, "Mr. Ji Xun, what occupation sequence are you?"

As she spoke, she also felt that the direct question seemed to be too abrupt, so she quickly added: "That... I mean. We are all going to [Greedy Mine]. We can take care of each other. One of my partners is one A black knight of the first rank, and a ranger of the ninth rank of Katu, although not as powerful as sister Chu Ninth, but not bad."

She was embarrassed to say that she didn't answer this question before, and she was looked at strangely by her companion.

He clearly said he was an acquaintance, but in the end he didn't even know the other party's occupation.

Looking back on that feeling now, I feel... so embarrassing.

Ji Xun was also amused by her cramped expression.

Very lame temptation.

But he also responded: "It's roughly close-combat. Well, it's a gunner at the moment? And you know, you know a little bit about solving puzzles."

Nan Jing: "Oh."

Gunner is not a professional sequence, many people use guns.

Hearing this, she also realized that it was impolite to inquire about privacy, so she didn't ask any more questions.

Ji Xun knew that this was misleading, so he didn't explain much.

He didn't deliberately want to hide it, but he really didn't know what to say.

You can't say, I'm Katu decathlon, right?

The melee meat shield role is fine, the long-range output is also fine, the assassin is also fine, even the nanny understands a little bit
With his attributes, he can stand in any position.

A person has a person's tactics, and a team has the benefits of a team.

Since they are going to the same different-dimensional space, Ji Xun also thinks that Nan Jing, a psychic and doctor teammate, is also very good, and his abilities complement each other.

As for her two companions, black knights and rangers, they are not necessary.

Ji Xun also took the initiative: "If we explore the different-dimensional space together, it will be much easier to take care of each other. At that time, Miss Nanjing may be troubled."

"Ok!"

Listening to Ji Xun's team invitation, Nan Jing had a little melancholy on her pretty face, but it disappeared immediately, and asked again: "What difficulty is Mr. Ji Xun planning to test?"

She didn't hide her purpose, and said directly: "Actually, what I want to say is that although I don't know whether the witch potion in that space is what we want, but the formula that can solve that plague must be of a high level. It may be possible to challenge the difficulty of B-level or higher to have a chance. But as far as I know, the death rate of [Greedy Mine] B-level difficulty exceeds 50%"

This death rate, many hunters who are out for money and not for gambling to get rich, will hardly consider it.

Enter C-level and D-level easy difficulty, and enter a few more times, and the rewards are also good.

As she said that, she secretly glanced at Ji Xun's expression, seeing that his face was still expressionless, and she was also very disturbed.

"Ah."

Ji Xun listened naturally without any difference.

The material he wanted was at least silver, so in the end he would choose a difficulty level above B.

But he also said very conservatively: "At that time, go to the easy difficulty to see the situation. I should also challenge the B-level difficulty later."

Nan Jing couldn't hide his excitement and said, "That would be great!"

She had only seen it once, and she herself didn't know why she felt that Ji Xun would be of great help to her.

Thinking that not only I think so, Chu Jiujie also said that he is very good.

That would be really powerful.

Hey that's right!
A sad look suddenly appeared in Nan Jing's eyes, and he said, "Mr. Ji Xun, there is one more thing."

Ji Xun took a sip of tea, turned his head and glanced: "Huh?"

Nan Jing couldn't hide his worry, and asked, "I want to ask, have you seen Miss Chu Jiu recently?"

When Ji Xun heard this question, he tilted his head and asked, "Didn't Chu Jiu be with you?"

Isn't Chujiu with you guys, you ask me?

But then he also guessed what might have happened to his old friend.

Nan Jing shook his head.

She didn't get the news, her expression darkened, and she said: "After I came out of the cemetery, I found Miss Chu Jiu. She was not assassinated. But she was in a very bad condition. She disappeared later. We are also very worried. I Thought she might come to you."

"."

When Ji Xun heard that Chu Jiu did not meet the assassin, his expression was slightly different.

The old friend is not dead, which is good news.

But why do you think she will come to me?

Ji Xun wanted to say that although the two had friendship, they only met twice.

Oh, almost forgot.

Being backstabbed by her family, she was afraid that she would have nowhere to go.

What should be talked has already been talked, and the night is already deep.

Nan Jing didn't intend to stay any longer.

At this time, Ji Xun suddenly thought of something, and asked, "By the way, Miss Nanjing, do you have any medical-related classics?"

He needs a lot of medical knowledge to learn that [Cell Vitality Boiling].

Although I found some in the storage ring of "Plague Doctor" Hessen before, most of them were poison-related classics, and there were some second-level advanced medical books, which were very difficult to read.

Now I happened to meet this psychic lady, and Ji Xun also knew that she was a good doctor, so he asked.

When Nan Jing heard it, he was obviously surprised, but he also said enthusiastically, "Ah yes."

As she said that, she didn't ask any questions, she just took out a few books from the storage ring, and asked curiously: "Mr. Ji Xun, do you want to take the path of healing?"

Ji Xun was noncommittal, and said with a smile: "I've been studying some spells recently, and I need to know some medical knowledge."

As he spoke, he looked at the big books and asked, "Can I borrow these books? I'll return them to you in a few days."

Nan Jing happily smiled and said, "Of course."

As she said that, she seemed to feel that she could help a little, and she was very happy, and said: "These are just for me to take with me. I still have a lot at home. If you need it, I will bring it to you next time."

After all, the large cemetery had been taken care of before, and it would feel better if they could help a little.

Ji Xun said: "Yes! Thank you. Let's talk about it after reading these."

Regardless of whether you can understand it or not, use your photographic memory to write it down first, so that you can digest it slowly later.

But after thinking about it, he felt that what Nan Jing said just now was very strange.

There are many more at home?

What is this miss psychic doing at home?
In the city of innocence, very few families would collect many medical classics.

Moreover, these classic books in front of me are hardcover and hand-painted. They are probably hundreds of years old antiques.

It is older than the "Card Master Encyclopedia" he bought.

Ji Xun thought of this, and suddenly laughed.

This ball-headed lady is really defenseless, even if it's just a few books, it can reveal a lot of information.

Nan Jing didn't know why he was laughing, but it was really late, and it would be impolite to stay any longer.

She cleaned up the teapot and said, "Mr. Ji Xun, I'll go back and rest first. See you tomorrow."

Ji Xun nodded: "Yes."

As soon as the door was closed, all thoughts were already on the book.

He is back in the daily state of practice and study.
