Cataclysm King.

Chapter 571: Revolutionary Army Leader "Resistant" Long Yu

"Devil's Gate" is a 300-meter-wide canyon in the Jilan Mountains east of Lige City.

From a far enough distance, it looks like there is a gap in the center of two huge stone doors, which is spectacular.

It's like a door to the unknown world.

If the Oran Royal Court's army wants to advance eastward, this is also a choke point that they must pass through.

Because this area is rich in green copper and the rocks are extremely hard, the Jilan Mountains are also a natural military defense line.

The Alliance Legion, led by New World Technology City, spent several months building a military fortress made of steel in the canyon here.

At this moment, thousands of artillery emplacements were densely carved out on the rock wall.

They are like honeycomb eyes, spread all over the rocks on both sides of the canyon.

The characteristics of artillery in this world are that they are "big and thick". Without precise directional capabilities, mechanics have maximized the caliber and ammunition volume.

The super-large-caliber barrel can also make up the gap between ordinary ammunition and magic energy shells to the greatest extent possible.

This can save enough money in the area where ammunition is consumed the most in war.

Heavy artillery with a caliber exceeding 600 mm abounds.

Those monsters weighing thousands of tons will arrange a gate at a distance.

Like the bared fangs of a wild beast, it adds a bit of ferocity to the entire mountain range.

On the rock wall, tower cranes are still busy hoisting equipment, and various workers wearing mechanical exoskeletons are also constantly reinforcing the defenses.

They want to make this defense line as strong as possible before the Oran Royal Court army comes.

In the command post in the belly of the mountain, a group of senior leaders and military staff officers of the Alliance Army gathered together.

They were holding a pre-war meeting with intense discussions.

Chu Jiu is sitting in the front seat on the round table. Next to her is the ninth-level "Faded One" Griffith;

From the Alliance Army, Catalina hasn't arrived yet, but here comes the second-in-command deputy commander, General Rogers, who has had one hand replaced with a mechanical prosthesis;

Here in the New World, Dong Qi is still on the front line, and the attendees are Douglas, the president of Science and Technology City;

The person attending the meeting on the side of the Revolutionary Army was the very mysterious leader. Few people had seen the true appearance of the "anti-law" Long Yu, a top-notch person who had been on the most wanted list in the Eastern Wasteland for more than thirty years. He was a white-haired man who said nothing. His age was indistinguishable. He looked like he was in his twenties or thirties, but the light in his eyes was unusually deep.

Ji Xun also sat at the round table, but basically didn't speak much.

He is more like a mascot, a bridge for major forces to build trust and quickly integrate.

There is a map hanging on the wall of the conference room, and there is a sand table near Lige City in the center of the table.

Staff members are compiling intelligence.

"Information just came in that the vanguard of the Oran Royal Court has arrived in Lige City. King Arthur's main army is only one day away. It should be that after gathering in the next few days, they will launch an attack."

"According to the information we have received so far, there are thirteen main armies assembled by the Oran Royal Court, with a total number of more than one million. There are also logistics and slave legions, with a total number of more than three million. As for us, The main forces are the Alliance Army and the New World's Mechanical Legion, and the total number that can participate in the battle is only 100,000. If we really have to fight head-on, there is basically no chance of winning, so we can only fight in positional battles."

"Yes. The Kieran defense line already has a strong enough firepower configuration. Our artillery range is also better than that of the Oran royal family in general. The difference in numbers is of little significance in the fight. As long as it is delayed long enough, under the Titan armor in the New World line, our chances of winning will become higher and higher.”

"We are indeed not afraid of a normal war. However, the moon **** Arachne of the Oran Royal Court and the two outer gods are a big trouble. What we have to worry about now is the harsh climate, insect plagues and belief pollution."

"Yes. The logistics department is already focusing on defense at this point."

"Everyone, how is the progress of the beheading plan? As long as King Oran dies, the enemy army will collapse."

"It's very difficult. There is almost no progress. There are three foreign gods in the Oran Royal Court, as well as the king's four knights, at least three Titan armors and the mechanical angel. The people we sent have gone to the ninth level and have never returned. No news."

"It's impossible to assassinate normally. But King Arthur has been contaminated by the [Tyrant] mark now, and he may make some irrational decisions. We can make some arrangements in this regard, such as provoking him to advance."

"."

Ji Xun had been listening silently and did not speak because he had already deduced the plan discussed by everyone countless times in his mind.

From the current point of view, the outcome of the battle between the two sides is indeed difficult to determine, and there are too many uncertain factors.

On the surface, Oran Royal Court does have an absolute advantage.

But as discussed, that bloated and huge million-member army also has many disadvantages. The biggest uncertainty is the tyrant Arthur.

Nowadays, a large number of Oran's old ministers defect to the exiled princess Chujiu every day, so we know what the situation inside the Oran Royal Court is like.

Ji Xun seemed to see the "Mad King" Alduin who had betrayed his family and abandoned his family at the end of Talon.

King Arthur is now the biggest uncertainty.

Neither side has the ability to behead the other, so they can only fight first to see who can last until the end.

Although the coalition forces are small in number, they also require few logistical resources and are highly efficient in dispatching, allowing them to concentrate their superior forces to engage in sharp knife battles.

There is also the Jilan Defense Line, which is as strong as an iron wall. As long as there is sufficient ammunition, the longer the battle is, the more advantageous it will be.

But this is the norm.

There were too many "accidents" in Ji Xun's deduction.

The three outer gods are just one of them. There are also the Iris Legion who have withdrawn from the Eastern Wasteland and are spying secretly. Even the Dragon God and the two outer gods of the Southern Continent may not really care about this.

These are all potential risks that can affect the situation of the war.

Ji Xun didn't say anything.

Because there is no point in saying it.

Even if he didn't say it, it was all inference. Even if he said it, he couldn't think of a solution, and no one else could think of it.

The meeting continues.

Just as he was thinking about it, Ji Xun suddenly noticed a ray of eyes looking at him.

He looked over and saw that it was Long Yu, the leader of the revolutionary army and the "anti-law".

They looked at each other and nodded to each other.

Ji Xun felt as if someone had penetrated his inner thoughts.

This is no illusion.

Ji Xun knew that this was the other person's ability - insight into human nature.

This man was not only the leader of the revolutionary army, but also Qin Rushi's teacher.

Others knew very little about Long Yu, and even except for a few cadres in the revolutionary army, they didn't know enough about this mysterious leader.

But Ji Xun had seen Qin Rushi in his memory. Although the other party didn't know him, he was already very familiar with him.

This is a being who is not only powerful in combat, but also extremely powerful in his heart.

In Qin Rushi's words, Long Yu's strength is very strong, even she has never seen the one who uses all his strength.

It can be seen that he was able to survive decades of siege and suppression by the Federation.

An ascetic, a saint, a great soul, an innocent person, a great revolutionary. These labels can all be affixed to Long Yu.

Ji Xun had seen it from Qin Rushi's memory, and it gave him the feeling that he was very much like Gong Wu. His rank was not high, but his realm was extremely high.

Moreover, this person's career sequence is very special, and his abilities are so strong that they are almost like a demon.

The career sequence he takes is [Diamond 9-Human Desire].

The ability studied in this sequence is "Human Desire", and the sequence's exclusive magical secret is the "Seven Deadly Sins".

Pride, envy, rage, laziness, greed, gluttony and **** are the seven deadly sins deep in the human soul.

It is said that by cultivating this secret method to the highest level, one can abandon one's own human weaknesses and reach the state of a saint.

This is a profession that has insight into human nature and has powerful abilities.

However, the title of the godhead pointed to by Path 9 is [Destruction], which is even more interesting.

Ji Xun was sizing up the "anti-law" Long Yu.

The other party was also sizing him up.

Of course Ji Xun could tell, that person seemed to be very interested in him too.

Not long after, the meeting ended and everyone left one after another.

"Resistant" Long Yu just arrived at Jilan's defense line today, and he didn't even have time to say hello.

Ji Xun also met him for the first time in the conference room.

He had just stood up and was about to chat, but Long Yu, who had white hair, took the initiative to greet him: "Little friend Ji Xun."

This "little friend" is not a big deal.

This guy has been on the wanted list for more than thirty years. It is said that he had this white hair when he was on the list. I guess he is definitely not young.

Ji Xun also said politely: "Senior Long."

Not only because of his age, but also because the other person was Qin Rushi's teacher, so it was appropriate to use honorifics.

Long Yu, however, didn't pay much attention to the details of the title and said with a smile, "You don't have to be so polite."

He said, "I heard the cadres talk about my little friend before, and when I saw him today, he turned out to be really extraordinary."

Ji Xun smiled and said, "Senior, that's a compliment."

He knew that the other party was not giving a polite compliment, but that he really saw how special he was.

"It may be true for others, but it's not enough for you, little friend."

Long Yu smiled and shook his head. He told the purpose of the big greeting and said: "I heard the cadres who came back talk about the matter in the Southern Continent. Thank you for your help, little friend, otherwise we might have suffered a lot of losses and wouldn't be able to bring you with us." Returning those precious supplies, and thanks to those materials, I was able to advance by luck."

"."

Ji Xun smiled, not wanting to take credit.

What the other party said was indeed correct.

The Revolutionary Army went to the Southern Continent. Without him, the harvest would indeed be much less.

But equally, without him, they probably wouldn't go to the Dead Zone. With Qin Ru in the team, there would be no risk.

For people of this level, when they say thank you, they really remember it in their hearts.

Long Yu didn't do much ink. Instead, he looked at Ji Xun. He did not avoid privacy, but directly reminded: "Isn't your soul condition very dangerous? I heard before that you were deformed? It would be better if it was not found. If there is a way, you can follow my career sequence. The "Seven Deadly Sins" is a magical and mysterious method that can suppress human desires and suppress mental distortion to the greatest extent."

No wonder the other party would remind me.

Ji Xun's current soul state is half as likely to be a witch's deformation as a normal person's.

From the perspective of outsiders, this situation will soon lead to a point of no return.

But in fact, this delicate witch balance was deliberately maintained by him.

It looks dangerous, but in fact it is not safe at all.

It was only because Nan Jing, the high priest who was proficient in various secret techniques, helped to suppress it that Ji Xun dared to play like this. Otherwise, she would have become a witch long ago.

He also saw that the leader of the revolutionary army took the initiative to speak because he wanted to remind himself.

Faced with the other party's kindness, before Ji Xun could respond,

But Long Yu already understood his thoughts, shook his head and laughed at himself: "It seems that I have a solution, but I am worrying too much."

Ji Xun didn't think the other party was talking too much. Instead, he repaid his gratitude for this kindness: "Thank you, senior, for reminding me. My current state is indeed very dangerous."

The two of them walked and talked.

He talked about his situation and explained: "Although this kind of distortion is dangerous, it is also a kind of extraordinary phase balance. It is currently a great help for me to understand some high-level laws." "Transcendent phase balance?"

Long Yu's expression was stunned for a moment.

He had obviously heard of this statement, but it was the first time he saw someone actually practice it in reality and had a complete and accurate pointing theory, so he was so shocked.

This is the secret of the divine level. If Ji Xun hadn't come into contact with Emperor Daolan Lingst's guidance, ordinary people would have no way to understand it.

Reciprocating the favor, and the other person was Qin Rushi's teacher. Ji Xun was not stingy with his words and explained a little more: "Well. This is a god-level theory. In the extraordinary stage, I also accidentally discovered that this kind of balance is helpful for practice."

Looking at the other party's frowning expression, he knew that it was obvious that the other party understood something.

This made Ji Xun even more sure that Long Yu's level was really high.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for an ordinary seventh-level card master to have such a great feeling for this extraordinary phase balance.

The two of them chatted and walked all the way, and before they knew it, they had arrived at the mouth of a fort.

The fort is on a rock wall, hundreds of meters high, with a very wide view.

Ji Xun talked about his current understanding and practical experience on "relative opposition".

He is now at the eighth level, which is already the top of the pyramid among card masters; and his amount of knowledge is not comparable to that of ordinary eighth-level card masters.

This conversation was very informative and extremely valuable!

The experience of "opposite nature" is a valuable and extraordinary knowledge that cannot be obtained anywhere.

Of course Long Yu knows this!

So he cherished this opportunity for dialogue very much.

He was not at all proud of his status as Qin Rushi's teacher. Instead, he listened and thought with great humility.

After hearing this, in order to better understand the profound mysteries of the laws, Long Yu's demonic shadow actually appeared behind him.

It was a being with seven heads and seven bodies, sometimes connected and sometimes separated, a contradictory and entangled existence.

It is the demon that [Diamond 9-Human Desire] points to - Dante, the Lord of Hell.

It was also Ji Xun's first time seeing this demon, and he felt as if he had seen the ugliness of human nature being completely revealed in front of this demon with no secrets.

If the other party could understand, he would speak more.

This said, it lasted for several hours before I knew it.

The two of them didn't stop until the time was announced on the radio that it was time for dinner.

Long Yu withdrew from the state of enlightenment of traveling in the ocean of knowledge, with a complex expression on her face.

It had been many years since he had experienced this feeling of sudden enlightenment and a flood of thoughts.

Ji Xun's words opened an extraordinary door to the highest realm for him, allowing Long Yu to see a brand new world.

His realm is extremely high, but there is not enough conclusive evidence to prove that his realm is on the right path.

It's like a castle in the air without blueprints.

But now, Ji Xun's words were like a blueprint, setting a path for him to reach the top in the future.

Without enough time to digest those insights, Long Yu looked at Ji Xun beside him and said sincerely: "Thank you for your advice, little friend."

Originally, because the other party helped the revolutionary army in the southern continent, I also wanted to repay him and solve his distortion problem.

Unexpectedly, instead of not being able to help, he actually encountered an unimaginably huge opportunity because of the other party!

As he spoke, he took out a booklet that seemed to have been prepared a long time ago and said: "This is the "Seven Original Sins" magic mysterious method that I have practiced in this way. I originally heard that your soul is in a bad state, and thought it might be helpful. Now it seems that my little friend's level is far beyond what I thought. It’s just that I worry too much hahaha.”

As he spoke, the leader of the revolutionary army laughed heartily at himself.

I originally wanted to repay the debts owed by the cadres in the Southern Continent, but now I see that I owe more.

Ji Xun shook his head, "Senior is too polite."

Of course he saw the other party's good intentions.

Even if he didn't say what he said before, the other party would still send this "Seven Deadly Sins" secret method.

Although Ji Xun does not currently need to suppress distortion, this secret method is still very useful to him.

This is the top secret method to restrain the soul. Those independent personalities in the mind that sometimes cause trouble can be restrained.

Ji Xun took over the secret method and said, "I'll go back and take a look first. If there's anything I don't understand, I'll ask my senior for advice another day."

"Okay. Then I'll go up there first. Haha, I'm afraid the cadres have been waiting for me to discuss the content of the meeting for a long time."

The self-mockery on Long Yu's face continued, but she didn't say anything more.

He knew that the other party had given him enough face.

The content of the extraordinary opposites just mentioned is enough for me to comprehend for a long time.

There will definitely be more doubts at that time, and I may need to ask for advice.

After turning around and leaving for a moment, the leader of the revolutionary army showed a happy smile on his face.

After leading the revolutionary army in struggle for decades, for the first time, he seemed to see a glimmer of hope.

Ji Xun also found that it was dinner time.

Inside the Jilan Defense Line are passages extending in all directions, which are numbered.

Looking at the number "707" on the wall, the new world's mecha training and modification room is in the "710" area nearby.

Dong Qi should also be there.

After thinking about it, Ji Xun walked directly towards the training room.

Everyone in the new world knows Dong Qi, so now everyone knows Ji Xun.

As he walked, people greeted him all the way.

Some bold girls would even come to see what the handsome guy who was said to have won the title of "The First Female Mechanical God of War" in their new world looked like.

Ji Xun walked to Area 710. There were several huge machine workshops here, where machines would modify and repair armors.

From a distance, you can smell the mixed smell of steel and oil that is exclusive to mechas.

Before Ji Xun could ask, several young mechanics who met at the door pointed out the direction: "Mr. Ji Xun, are you looking for the team leader? She is inside, in cabin No. 3."

"OK, thanks."

Ji Xun said hello with a smile. Watching the little girls leaving with their mouths covered and laughing lightly, he also walked in.

When they found cabin No. 3, Dong Qi was indeed inside.

The cabin is filled with various instruments, tools and mechanical accessories.

The tall Titan armor was in the center of the cabin.

The robotic arm hoisted a man-sized individual magic energy light cannon suspended in the air. Colorful tubes were connected to the control room of the mecha. It seemed that the suitability of the new weapons and the mecha was being tested.

In front of the mecha, a girl wearing a greasy mechanic's uniform was looking at the data in her hand intently.

It was Dong Qi.

When she heard the door open, she saw that it was Ji Xun coming. She quickly put down the instrument display in her hand, walked over excitedly, and put her arms around his neck: "Why are you here?"

Ji Xun smiled and said, "It's dinner time. I happen to be nearby. Come and see you."

Dong Qi had obviously forgotten the time, "Huh? Is it time for dinner?"

Ji Xun guessed that this was the case, "How is the modification? If you can let it go, let's eat first."

"Yeah. There's still a while. I'll save this information and that's it."

Dong Qi tilted his head, his pretty face full of joy, "Then you wait for me?"

Her favorite machine and lover were both here, so she was naturally very happy.

"Um."

Ji Xun nodded, looking at Dong Qi who happily turned around to go about his business, a slight smile appeared on his eyebrows.

While Miss Qiqi was busy, Ji Xun also looked at the almost modified Titan armor with great interest.

Dong Qi has been busy with this work during this period.

The design of Titan is indeed perfect, but because the armor is standard equipment and is inclusive, it lacks uniqueness.

In order to fully fit the operator's habits and combat style, some modifications are required.

Especially since this Titan armor was manufactured by the Oran Royal Court Workshop, the enemy knew all the data about this mecha.

This will be very disadvantageous in future battlefields.

Dong Qi needs to modify some new things that the enemy can't think of, and also make this mecha more suitable for him.

Ji Xun looked at Dong Qi, who fell into concentration in the blink of an eye, and his eyes became a little softer.

Thinking back to the first time we met in the small bookstore outside the Hunter's Guild, it seems like yesterday. Looking at it now, it actually happened several years ago.

Miss Qiqi, who was still the head of the gang at the time, showed him the way to buy breathing techniques on the black market, and Ji Xun got the secret to "gluttony", which led to everything that followed.

As he thought about it, Ji Xun had a very strange feeling. It seems that any small encounter in fate seems to be indispensable for the future.

Like a "pebble" on the road of life, it seemed inconspicuous at the time. But when I really got far enough and looked back, I realized that that small stone affected the entire fate line.

For a moment, the laws of the universe seemed to flow clearly in Ji Xun's eyes.

As if aware of the gaze behind him, Dong Qi turned around and looked, with a meaningful smile at the corner of his smart eyes: "What are you thinking about?"

Ji Xundao: "I think Miss Qiqi is so beautiful."

Dong Qi looked like a little girl who was praised. She did not hide her joy and smiled: "Really? Haha, I think so too."

With that said, she came over and hugged Ji Xun affectionately: "Let's go eat."

Ji Xun nodded.

However, just when the two were about to walk out of the cabin door, suddenly, the alarm sounded loudly in the defense line.

Hearing the piercing alarm, Ji Xun and Dong Qi frowned instantly.

Because they saw what happened on the monitor in the cabin.

Outside, over Hell's Gate Canyon, at some point, a bright moon hung high in the sky.

It was like a demon's eye, watching all the movements of the entire defense line.

Ji Xun frowned as he looked at it, but then relaxed it and murmured: "The people from Oran Palace have taken action."

Dong Qijing's eyes sparkled and she nodded: "Yes."

It was expected, but not unexpected.

This bright moon is like the fuse that ignites explosives.

The moment the sparks light up, it is determined that an inevitable battle has begun.
