Cataclysm King.

Chapter 581: Plot reversals one after another

Jia Yu, the light chaser, rebelled against the Bai family and brought a key turning point to the war.

In other words, the immortals of the Bai family have never recognized Arthur as King Augustus, and have always just followed the trend.

After all, the ancestors and immortals had seen how the "Seven Natural Disaster Monarchs" destroyed the Talon Empire, so how could such a disaster be allowed to happen again.

In fact, Ji Xun could see some of the foresight of Talun's old minister from the wise eyes of the White Fox Immortal family behind Bai Wei.

If you live for a long time, you should be able to think of some secrets even if you don't know them.

In short, the fact is that the sudden "uprising" of the Bai family allowed Ji Xun to successfully locate the four Moon God altars, and also successfully captured the mysterious mediums and cut off the source of the three outer gods' divine power.

This move became the most important turning point in this decisive battle.

The moon **** Arachne had accumulated so much divine power of faith that before she could cause trouble, she was robbed of everything.

Ji Xun didn't know how much trouble he had prevented.

But what he knew was that he was being targeted by the Moon God.

A "whoosh" sound broke through the wind.

Ji Xun flew out upside down and knocked down the turret of the Mechanical City with one foot before he regained his balance.

He looked at the **** holes poked on his shoulders, raised his eyebrows slightly, and laughed at himself: "Oh, the God's Chosen One is really troublesome enough that I can't kill it, and I can't even beat it."

Although the "Immortality Curse" was used to quickly heal the wound, the white traces of the moon's power were still like gangrene attached to the bone and could not be removed in a short time.

This is the pollution of high laws caused by divine magic.

No normal ninth-level card master would be able to force him into such a state of embarrassment.

It can only be the chosen one blessed by the will of the outer gods.

At the siege corner not far away, Queen Betty, dressed in black, stood there holding a long sword made of moonlight, looking at Ji Xun coldly.

A silver moon was reflected in her eyes, and her whole person exuded an indescribable mysterious aura.

"Come again."

Ji Xun glanced at this, his expression was strange for a moment.

Before the sudden bright moonlight shone on him, he had already disappeared on the spot.

Looking again, he had appeared a hundred meters away, breathing heavily.

And where the turret was standing just now, seven or eight holes had been inserted into it by dozens of knight's guns turned into moonlight.

This is the troublesome part. Whenever the moonlight shines, this woman's movement speed and spells are all instantaneous.

The continuous high-intensity teleportation also made Ji Xun's body a little overwhelmed. He quickly waved his hand and said: "Um, Princess Betty, can you let me take a breath and say a few words?"

It was obviously a battle of life and death, but there was no sign of seriousness on his face, and there was an elusive and strange smile from beginning to end.

Opening your mouth is not to delay time, nor is it to admit defeat, but it is just that you are not prepared to continue to be beaten again.

It's not that this woman's body has reached the ninth level, but it's actually only the eighth level. But the will of the moon **** Arachne is attached to her, and the understanding of human and divine laws is not on the same level at all.

Ji Xun's [True Understanding of All Things] field can only decompose part of the moonlight, and most of the damage is real damage. So almost every encounter is a thrilling scene that can mean the difference between life and death.

If it weren't for the two JOKER curse cards, he would have died suddenly on the spot.

Ji Xun was just curious about the strength of the Chosen One.

Just try the strength.

Not a masochist.

Tried it now,

Got a beating.

Confirmed, can't beat it.

"."

Queen Betty said nothing, looking coldly at Ji Xun's teasing expression, she became inexplicably alert and glanced around with her peripheral vision.

She has known Ji Xun for a long time, but she never got any advantage every time.

She knew very well that this guy would never fight an unprepared battle.

Dare to show up, there must be some other back-up plan.

Ji Xun saw that the other party did not make a move and took a breath. Then he went directly to the topic and shouted: "Your Excellency, just look at it like this, don't you want to help?"

But as soon as these words came out, an awkward silence filled the air.

No one responded.

In the ruins of the Mechanical City not far away, a guy vomiting blood lowered his breath and complained in his heart: "I have helped you so much, are you trying to trick me?"

Ji Xun felt helpless when no one responded.

He smiled slightly awkwardly at Queen Betty opposite: "Ahem. Wait, he probably didn't hear it. I'll shout again."

There is indeed help.

But there is no hope for the newly formed allies.

Ji Xun knew that Bai Wei was lying dead in the far corner, pretending to be dead.

The punch I received before, even though it was a bit harder to act more realistically, it was absolutely impossible for Bai Wei, who was protected by the Immortal Family, to be unable to get up.

This guy was so smart. He must have known that even if they worked together, they couldn't defeat the Moon God's Chosen One, so he had no intention of saying anything.

Of course Ji Xun also knew.

So I never expected it.

Seeing that Queen Betty was about to attack, he quickly shouted again: "Your Excellency Andre, are you interested in cooperating?"

This time he called out his name directly.

"!!"

As soon as these words came out, Betty's pupils suddenly dilated and she retreated violently.

She had learned the methods of the Generalissimo of the Iris Legion in Innocence City before, but now when she heard the name, she was immediately on alert.

She never thought that people from the Southern Continent would come to this battlefield to steal chickens, but she never thought that people from the coalition army could cooperate with people from Iris Flower?

How could these two parties cooperate?

As soon as these words came out, even Bai Wei, who was lying dead not far away, pricked up his ears and was very curious about what happened.

If he hadn't been pretending to be dead and unable to move, he would have wanted to open his eyes to see what was going on.

However, the situation was that as soon as Ji Xun's words came out, the scene fell into deathly silence again.

Ji Xun seemed to smile at Betty in a self-deprecating manner, "Ah, maybe my voice is too soft?"

Although his expression was playful, his eyes were full of determination.

It was this determination that seemed to make the situation suddenly turn around.

Just when Queen Betty was not sure whether Ji Xun was deliberately stalling for time or if he really had some back-up plan.

A burly figure appeared on the battlefield out of thin air.

As soon as this man appeared, his chiseled face turned towards Ji Xun, and a domineering aura swept over the entire place.

Not someone else.

It is none other than the Grand Marshal of the Iris Legion, Andre the Dragonborn at the peak of the ninth level!

The top warriors of the Iris Legion appeared on the battlefield. This scene not only shocked Oran's side.

Even the senior officials on the coalition side were confused: What's going on? When did we join forces with Iris?

The powerful dragon's power swept across the audience, adding huge uncertainty to this decisive battle.

Ji Xun saw his "reinforcements" coming out, and Kwanchuan's brows relaxed, as if he was much less stressed.

Andre stared at him with squinted eyes, as if he could see what the man in front of him was thinking.

But before he could speak, Ji Xun directly expressed his thoughts: "Your Excellency Andre, how about we work together to kill this God's Chosen One? If you are willing to take action, we can talk about the alliance afterwards."

The discussion was naturally not discussed in advance.

Although he guessed that people from the Iris Legion would definitely come to this battlefield to pick up leaks, he had not contacted them before.

Because there are no conditions for cooperation at all.

From the other side's perspective, it's clear that the other side is just waiting for both of you to suffer losses before picking up the slack. Why would they want to cooperate with you, a coalition that has a high probability of defeat?

Therefore, even though Ji Xun thought that cooperation would be of great benefit to this battle, he did not bring trouble to himself.

But it's different now.

The previous negotiations lacked some bargaining chips for the other party to evaluate the strength of the allies, but now the other party has obviously seen the strength of the coalition.

Whether it's mechanical technology, top combat power, military style, Augustus inheritance, or anything else.

It is no exaggeration to say that the strength displayed by the coalition forces is not much worse than that of their Iris Legion.

Of course, the most important thing is "potential".

Even though there is still a gap between the two sides now, in the future, this situation will definitely change!

This also provides a basis for equal cooperation.

And since the other party has chosen to show up, he obviously wants to talk.

It is better to sit at the negotiation table than to talk on the spot where interests are divided.

This cooperation is not only related to the outcome of this battle, but also the future development of the Old Continent.

Now that the other party has seen the potential of the coalition and the future of mechanical technology, it will be difficult to refuse as long as he is not a stubborn old man with conservative ideas.

When Andre heard Ji Xun's words, his expression became more and more serious, and his gaze scanned Ji Xun's body like a scraper.

He certainly knows what "cooperation" is.

It is mechanical technology, the inheritance of Augustus, and the future division of power in the Old Continent.

Even a powerful ally that may affect the turmoil of the entire plane in the future.

The value of providing help in times of need cannot be equated with the icing on the cake.

As a general marshal, of course he knows when to make decisions that maximize his benefits.

There are now countless lords of the Southern Continent who have planted flags in the Old Continent. This kind of cooperation opportunity exists now, but it may not be available to their Iris Legion in the future.

Now that Andre is here, he has actually made three kinds of preparations.

First, help the Oran Royal Court;

Second, help the coalition forces;

There is also a third type, if the two do not help each other, both sides will suffer, and the fishermen will reap the benefits.

After watching the battle until now, Andre discovered that his mind had gradually wavered from firmly choosing the third option. The Grand Marshal of Iris knew the reasons for the fall of the Taron dynasty.

Therefore, he felt that it was impossible for the Moon God and the two "Seven Lords of Natural Disaster" to completely rule the Eastern Wasteland.

Otherwise, it will not only be a disaster for the Eastern Wasteland, but also a disaster for the entire plane.

The Iris Legion, which has established its territory at Nugget Pier, will inevitably be the first to suffer the consequences.

The third option seems feasible.

But that was before.

The fact before us is that no matter the strength shown by the Oran side or the coalition side, even if both sides suffer losses, they may not necessarily be able to win.

If you don't take sides now and just watch the battle, that won't be a problem.

But this not only created two powerful enemies, but also gave up "cooperation" and the right to choose the future.

Of course, there is another very important reason.

That is, the Moon God's chosen one is Queen Oran. Killing her and defeating the Oran Royal Court will be of great benefit to his promotion ceremony.

This was the most important purpose of the expedition to the Eastern Wasteland from the beginning.

If the situation really changes, you can still withdraw.

Nothing to lose.

It seemed like I thought about it for a long time, but in fact it took just a moment.

Andre snorted coldly, looked at Ji Xun, and said with a half-smile, "Oh, what can you give me?"

Although he was bargaining, he knew in his heart that from the moment he showed up, his intuition had actually helped him make a statement.

In his state, intuition is often better than thinking in making accurate judgments.

He didn't know why, but his intuition told him that the guy in front of him felt dangerous and reliable.

This choice does involve gambling risks, but once the gamble is right, the future rewards will be huge!

Ji Xun grinned, looking at Andre's eyes as if he was going to kill him if the conditions didn't satisfy him, the corners of his mouth became more confident, and he responded calmly: "Everything within a reasonable range."

But he didn't expect this to be an empty answer. Andre just glanced at him one last time, thought for a moment, and then responded: "Okay!"

He was a general who emerged step by step from the sea of ​​​​blood. He did not have the ink mark of a counselor to think before and after. He only had the consciousness to bear all the consequences when he made a judgment about himself!

Because his intuition allowed him to clearly perceive the potential attitude of the person in front of him, as if to say: We can win even if you don't help.

Although Andre didn't know where Ji Xun's confidence came from.

But the mechanical angels, weeping angels, three outer gods, two sacred instruments of royal power, and a King Augustus with great potential that he saw before all proved that this was far beyond his previous judgment.

In this case, let's take a chance on the future.

Of course, the most important thing that makes Andre so decisive is that he has observed this guy for a long time before. This guy looks like he is integrated with the phantom of the clown demon. His strength and potential are the best he has ever seen in the eighth level. !

The entire conversation only lasted three sentences, but it sealed a covenant that would have a huge impact on the Old Continent for many years to come.

This made Princess Betty's face darken across from her.

But before she could make any move, a terrifying dragon power locked onto her.

Princess Betty did not dare to hesitate at all, her eyes flashed with silver light, and she chanted ancient and profound sacrificial words.

Pointing to the indescribable god:

"Rejoice in the wails of pain, rejoice in the spilling of blood.

Thirst for blood, gives mortals fear

Joy, Dreams, Thousand-Faced Moon

"

The spell was chanted in an instant, and Queen Betty's divine power instantly surged: "Divinity: The arrival of the Moon God!"

She knew that the great moon **** Arachne wanted to protect King Arthur. Before, she had only dealt with an eighth-level enemy, which did not require much divine power.

But now, he had to summon the will of the moon **** Arachne to fully come to his body.

Andre raised his head and glanced at the moon, with a look of solemnity on his brows.

This was much greater pressure than the previous pressure on him in Innocence City.

Just when the Generalissimo and Ji Xun locked Queen Betty with murderous intent, the other party's attention was also on them.

The bizarre reversal happened again.

The divine power of the Moon God poured into Queen Betty's body like a waterfall from the moon, and her aura became stronger and stronger. But suddenly, as if being intercepted by someone, the divine power that poured into her body disappeared instantly. become!

You must know that this is not a spell, but a directed divine power from the gods to the chosen one, which cannot be interrupted or terminated at all.

But unfortunately, the facts happened.

"how"

After Queen Betty discovered the abnormality, her expression changed drastically. She suddenly thought of something, and when she opened her eyes: "Damn it! The Bai family!"

In the blink of an eye, she realized that several phantoms of the Immortal Family, covered in golden light, had appeared all around her.

It was as if I heard someone chanting the curse seal from somewhere.

"Immortal Technique·Nine Palace Gate Spider Silk Prison Lock!"

"Immortal Technique: God-Sealing Pillar!"

The spell is instantaneous.

[Silver Eyed Immortal Fox], [Dragon Scaled King Snake], [Three-legged Bird], [God-Eating Insect]. The four great ancestors of the Bai family!

It was these ancestral immortals who had existed for who knows how long who stole her divine power.

This was not over yet, the shadow of the Immortal Family appeared, a spider web-like barrier appeared in the sky, and several surrounding pillars inscribed with mysterious totems were also channeled.

The spell that has been prepared for so long not only steals the power of the moon god, but also cuts off the connection between Betty and the moon god.

In this way, the Princess Betty in front of her was not the chosen one that Ji Xun had dealt with before, who could be resurrected infinitely.

And no one else can do this job, only the Bai family who inherits the [10 of Spades - God Thief] sequence!

The various methods inherited by the Bai family are designed to restrain the gods.

In the blink of an eye, Bai Wei, who was lying dead in the ruins of the Mechanical City, suddenly jumped out of nowhere.

This guy was stared at by Queen Betty with a murderous gaze. The corners of his eyes twitched violently. He couldn't help but whisper softly: "Brother, I'm risking my life to help you. If you If I can’t beat him, I will definitely die.”

This [Nine Palace Gate Spider Silk Prison Lock] is a control magic, like a rope that locks a beast, and he is the one who pulls the rope.

Ji Xun looked at Bai Wei who took action at the critical moment and grinned.

Not to mention the Bai family's position, there is nothing wrong with taking sides, and they make the right choice every time they take sides.

"Ah, the general of Iris, really agreed to join forces? Also, what do I think, Mr. Ji Xun and her have not communicated before?"

"Isn't this too outrageous? A decision made just before the battle? What if the other party doesn't agree?"

"Commander-in-Chief, you...you should know this plan, right?"

"I don't know either"

"."

"Mr. Ji Xun is really brave as a master of arts. He said this because he was sure that the other party would agree. But thinking about it, if Iris wants to gain a foothold in the old continent in the future, cooperation with us is indeed the best option. Good choice.”

"That's the truth, but who dares to talk about cooperation at this juncture? If it doesn't work out, won't we call out a powerful enemy?"

"."

At the coalition command headquarters, the senior leaders of the coalition forces who were fighting fiercely were all paying attention to the battle outside.

They knew very well that the outcome of the top battle forces would greatly affect the final victory of this decisive battle.

Before, they watched the four-pillar altar of the Moon God explode, and everyone fell into ecstasy; and then they watched Ji Xun in danger in the hands of Queen Betty, and everyone was on tenterhooks, wishing they could go in person to help.

However, I never expected the turn of events to come so quickly.

In the blink of an eye, Ji Xun found himself a powerful ally?

In the imaging device, I saw that Ji Xun had turned his former enemies into allies in a few words, and the expressions of the senior officials of the coalition were extremely strange.

Even Catalina, who spent time with Ji Xun day and night, had surprise in her eyes.

Although she heard Ji Xun's analysis that Iris's top management would definitely come, she never expected that Ji Xun would actually bring a powerful temporary ally to the coalition forces on the battlefield?

Only when you look at it from the perspective of a bystander will you realize how cleverly the timing of this negotiation was chosen!

Catalina's crystal eyes were filled with energy.

She sees the situation in front of her clearly better than anyone else.

Ji Xun's previous battle with Queen Betty seemed to be full of dangers, but it was actually to show Andre's strength and confidence!

Let the other party see the potential and be willing to "take a gamble". Only then will there be a basis for cooperation.

Catalina unconsciously held her breath. Seeing that the cooperation negotiation was concluded, she breathed a sigh of relief and murmured: "It's really an adventure."

Although she said this, her beautiful eyes were full of tenderness.

This is the guy she's known since the beginning.

However, just as the surprise of the alliance appeared on everyone's faces, an unexpected scene happened again!

"Look! What's happening? Why did the Bai family suddenly rebel?"

"No way, the Bai family is the high priest of the Oran Royal Court. How could they suddenly control the Poison Queen Betty?"

"Isn't it possible that Mr. Xi Jixun also instigated the rebellion of the Bai family?"

"Commander-in-Chief, isn't this a secret plan discussed between you and Mr. Ji Xun?"

"."

Seeing the picture on the imaging device, the coalition's military morale was greatly boosted.

Catalina listened to her subordinates' excited questions, and a strange expression appeared on her face.

If the alliance with the Iris Legion had been discussed before, it was an unlikely plan.

So she was truly unaware of the Bai family's comeback.

Seeing the picture of three parties besieging Queen Betty on the screen, Catalina's eyes were full of energy, and her tense mind finally let out a sigh of relief: "It really always brings surprises to people."

That familiar feeling came to mind again. In my memory, it seemed that every time I went on an adventure with this guy, I would always be lucky.
