Cataclysm King

Chapter 261 The big guys come together to bet on the Innocence City

Suddenly corpses fell from the sky, and Hong Louli was instantly panicked.

 It didn’t take long for someone to recognize the fat face.

After all, Song Yuanhai, the second master of the Song family, is a federal red-top wealthy businessman who can often be seen in newspapers.

 This is better known than the SSS wanted criminals on the wanted poster.

He died in Honglou, which would be a big problem.

Ji Xun looked at the corpse without any expression.

Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Song Can beside him.

The fat man was only surprised for a moment, and soon he frowned as if he had guessed something.

Then those small eyes that were still immersed in the resentment of love just now could not hide their sadness and murmured to themselves: "Is grandma gone?"

Although as a junior in the family, he is not qualified to participate in the clan elders meeting upstairs.

 But that doesn’t mean that Song Can doesn’t know the intensity of the family’s internal fighting.

On the contrary, he sensed the coming storm more keenly than anyone in the family.

 Even foreseeing the death of his second uncle.

 So I got out of that whirlpool early.

Looking at the corpse, Song Can immediately knew what happened.

Eighty % of the second uncle who colluded out of the outsiders showed a cards in the elderly, and then collapsed.

 But even so, several uncles in the family would never dare to kill him.

The only possibility is that grandma has been preparing to clean up the house for a long time.

  』

Song Can knew very well that his second uncle must die in order to suppress other people in the family who had different intentions.

 But he has no interest in family strife.

Nor does he care about the helm position that everyone in the Song family is currently staring at.

On the contrary, he felt extremely sad about the death of his respectable, lovely and kind grandmother.

That is the elder, life mentor and relative whom he respects the most who has given him the most preference since he was a child.

Song Can was already very emotional. Thinking of never seeing that kind face again, she couldn't help but shed tears on her face.

Ji Xun also took another look.

I didn’t expect that this little fat man, who was always optimistic, would cry in front of an outsider.

Song Can knew that he had lost his composure, but he couldn't help it. He choked with red eyes and said, "Grandma passed away."

Ji Xun's face darkened inexplicably when he heard the word "passed away".

As he spoke, Song Can burst into tears. He was crying very hard, but his true feelings could not be concealed. He cried loudly: "I don't know if the 'Chaoyang' that grandma is looking for has been found."

He also blamed himself a little, knowing that it was his grandma's biggest wish before her death, but he didn't do much to help.

Hearing this, Ji Xun glanced at the fat man and said nothing.

 The sudden change frightened the actors on the hall stage to death.

Immediately, a large number of security personnel in black suits sprang out from all over Honglou and began to clear the place.

The people who were eating melons in the Red Mansion were all cleared out before they could understand what was happening.

Some lively and disorderly activities can lead to death.

 Identified the identity of the corpse. Smart people know that this kind of thing is not even qualified to be a spectator if you don't have any strength.

Soon, the first floor was empty.

Song Can watched Ji Xun's eyes fall on the corpse. Thinking that he was not an outsider, he explained: "There are some conflicts within the family. It makes you laugh."

Ji Xun certainly knows.

And he had a hunch that this might not just be an internal conflict within the Song family.

My second uncle is dead, and now there is a big problem. Song Can is a member of the Song family, so she cannot stay out of it.

He couldn't stand to watch the excitement, so he turned around and said, "Brother Ji Xun, you'd better find a room to rest. I'll leave to deal with some things first, and I'll come back to you later."

Ji Xun nodded: "Yes. I'll go and do my work first."

With that said, Song Can left in a hurry.

The clearing went smoothly, and Honglou, which had been noisy just a moment ago, fell silent in an instant.

 No one was there to dispose of the body.

 The second, third, and fourth floors. There are several rooms with lights on on almost every floor.

 There were several blurry figures standing in front of the window glass.

Those who were qualified to watch the excitement stood in front of the glass windows of their private rooms and watched silently.

Ji Xun also chose a corner that was convenient for watching the show but would not be disturbed.

I want to see how this matter develops.

 Hong Lou still echoed with some quarrels and roars.

 Looking at the situation, it seems that negotiations are still going on upstairs.

Ji Xun could endure the loneliness, so he waited with peace of mind.

But suddenly, Qi Ji sensed something, and his eyes suddenly turned sharp: "There is murderous intent! You are coming for me!"

The person who came was very scary. Ji Xun looked like a cat with explosive hair, and all the hairs on his back suddenly stood up.

His body was covered in golden paint, and he jerked away violently, trying to avoid the murderous aura that was locked on him.

But as soon as he turned his face, he saw a fist as big as a casserole was already attached to his face.

"So fast!"

Ji Xun secretly thought that it was so bad that he couldn't even react. The enemy's strength had exceeded his imagination.

 Just this thought flashed through me, and it was no longer possible to avoid it.

 “Bang!”

 “Bang!”

 Two distinctive crackling sounds of the head.

Ji Xun felt like he was hit twice very fast on the forehead.

A pain that penetrated into his bone marrow caused him to take a deep breath and spin.

 But at the same time, he already knew who was doing it.

 Because this kind of method that can completely ignore the hegemony can only be done by the old man.

The strange thing is that these two punches caused severe pain but very little power.

Ji Xun just tilted his head back slightly and immediately stopped.

 At the same time, the pain in my forehead surged out like a volcano erupting.

It hurt so much that I couldn't stop crying.

Ji Xun held his forehead, and instantly felt a bump rising from where he was covering it.

 First the size of marbles, then the size of buns.

 Then it turned into a gourd!

 I don’t know why these packages overlap!

Ji Xun's eyes were so painful that they shed tears as if they were smoked by chili peppers. He looked at the old man in front of him and said with a bitter face, "Senior Gong, what are you doing?"

The person who made the sneak attack was none other than Gong Wu.

The old man looked at Ji Xun's innocent and resentful expression. The memory of a hundred years ago was still vivid in his mind, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he became.

His old face imitated an expression that wanted to be beaten, recalling someone's memory and said: "I kept this bag!"

ˆ “.”

Hearing this, Ji Xun knew what was going on.

Youyou shut up and didn't dare to quibble.

This vengeful old man remembered the duel at Saphire Manor a hundred years ago.

 Ah. But it’s been a hundred years.

Gong Wu looked at the two huge bumps on Ji Xun's forehead, his expression was satisfied, and he still said in a sullen voice: "Do you know why you were beaten?"

ˆ “.”

Ji Xun glanced at the old man and gave up with a grimace.

But although he didn't dare to quibble with his mouth, he couldn't help but complain in his heart.

Gong Wu looked at Ji Xun, his old face also became sullen.

The person was also beaten and his thoughts became clear.

 It turns out that it wasn’t that I wasn’t good at it back then, but that I was teaching too well.

 But when he saw Ji Xun's restrained energy, he was also surprised and said: "But you have made great progress, and you have actually touched the threshold of 'meaning'."

Ji Xun didn't realize anything while listening, so he asked, "What do you mean?"

Gong Wu glanced at him with a slightly strange expression: "Yes. What happened to your kid in the past few days that you touched the 'meaning' so quickly?"

Thinking that they had only been separated from Shangbang Prison for a few days, right?

 Gong Wu was really surprised by such a big change.

You must know that he himself was stuck on this threshold for ten or eight years.

 "Yi" is not a career advancement for card masters. You can break through when you are strong enough.

 This thing relies on chance, experience and understanding.

The saying “Until the heart dies, the mind does not grow” is not for nothing.

Ji Xun also realized that the mysterious feeling he had before was that he had touched the threshold of "meaning".

  He also said why he suddenly felt that the sensory world was different, as if it was too clear.

I see.

 But let’s talk about how to understand it.

 The joy in Ji Xun's eyes disappeared as soon as it appeared.

Looking at the sadness in Ji Xun's expression, another person on the side said: "Old man Gong, if you don't understand, don't ask blindly."

　　Not only did Gong Wu come, he was also accompanied by a mysterious man in a cloak.

Looking at the iconic white beard, Ji Xun also recognized that it was Master Merlin.

But why did these two come to Honglou together?

Gong Wu was unhappy when he heard this: "Why don't I understand?"

Merlin: "Old man Gong, do you know what love is?"

Gong Wu said faintly: "What do you know about that thing? Women will only affect the speed of my punches."

"Ah"

Merlin was quite speechless, but had no interest in arguing with this guy.

Ji Xun watched the two of them finish speaking and greeted respectfully: "Master Merlin."

"Um."

Merlin looked at Ji Xun and nodded, sighing slightly with a complicated expression.

 Song Yu came to Wuxin City to meet him for the last time.

 He also knew who the old friend came to see.

 Coming to Honglou now, in addition to business matters, is also to see that person off on his last journey.

Ji Xun guessed it and was not in a high mood.

Gong Wu on the side looked at the expressions of the two people and blew his beard.

But they didn’t talk much, and the excitement started again.

 Suddenly, an explosion penetrated the eardrums.

 With a "boom", two embarrassed figures fell down from the upstairs.

At the same time, there was an angry shout: "People of the Song family, do you know what you are doing! I am a federal congressman! No matter what I have done, only the federal court is qualified to try me. If you dare to attack a congressman, you are seeking death. !”

　　Everyone took a closer look and saw a strong man in a suit who looked like a bodyguard twisting a fat middle-aged man and falling into the hall.

 It looked like they had been beaten down, and both of them had bleeding wounds.

Ji Xun looked at the fat man and recognized him at a glance.

  He had read in the newspaper that the federal recently popular congressman, big banker, and frequent figure on the rich list was a politician named Keen.

Ji Xun only saw two people, and Gong Wu beside him also narrowed his eyes slightly: "Hey, this assassin is not bad."

Assassin?

Ji Xunzheng is strange.

Just as the two of them landed, there was a sudden ripple in the air, and a dark green dagger poked out of the air.

 “Lord Keen, be careful!”

The bodyguard obviously took a moment to realize it. ,

 He wanted to lead the men away and retreat, but the dagger had already slipped on his arm.

 “Stab!” A **** arrow shot out.

 An arm fell to the ground. The bodyguard didn't expect that his arm would be cut off easily, and he looked horrified.

There are absolutely only a handful of assassins in the entire federation who can do this!

He looked at the assassin in a hooded corset not far away, his face changed drastically, and he reminded: "Sir, it's Quintu!"

Congressman Keen's face turned pale with fright. He looked at the legendary assassin in front of him and still wanted to struggle: "Quintu, no matter how much money the Song family pays, I will pay double! No, ten times!"

Ji Xun heard the name and guessed who it was.

Honourary president of the Assassin's Guild, the legendary thief king "Night Shadow" Kuntu.

 Legendary strongman, the best assassin in the world!

 This means he is a killer hired by the Song family's financial resources?

Unexpectedly, the assassin was completely unmoved and walked over step by step with the dagger in hand.

Congressman Keen turned pale with fright, but he is a politician after all, and he cannot be persuaded by inducements, so he threatened again: "Quintu, you dare to assassinate Congressman. After today, there will be no place for you, your family, and the entire federation! "

"hehe."

Unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out, Kuntu actually stopped.

However, he seemed to want others to hear something on purpose, and he said it clearly: "I received favors from others in the early years, and today I am here to repay those favors. Congressman, you should not have any ideas about the Song family."

It can't be a good thing if the legendary strong man can return the favor.

From the corner of his eye, Keen glanced at the corpse of the second master of the Song family not far away in a pool of blood. Hearing this, his face turned ugly.

Had he known that the Song family was still hiding such a skill, how could he have rashly come forward.

**** it!

 Song Laoer didn’t even know such important information!

 It hurts me!

Seeing the assassin approaching step by step, Keen still refused to give up.

He suddenly turned his face and shouted towards all floors of Hong Tower: "Congressman Robert, I know you are here, save me! If I die here today, I, the member of the New Party, will never give up."

Once this voice was shouted out, some big shots who originally only wanted to watch the fun could no longer stay out of the incident.

  After all, Keane is a new member of the federal government, and there are many people supporting him in the House of Representatives.

As soon as these words came out, a window on the third floor also opened.

 An expressionless old gentleman stood by the window.

 He knew that Keane wanted to drag him into the water.

The federal colleagues who had looked up and looked down were shouted, and they had to help.

But at this moment, Robert had no intention of intervening. He only glanced at it and said calmly: "After all, this is the Song family's own business. We outsiders are not qualified to say anything about what they are doing internally. But if there are outsiders who want to get involved, If so, I, the Morton family, still have to give 'that' face. It's not easy for me, an outsider, to get involved in how they deal with it."

After expressing his attitude, he did not forget to say to the other side: "Boss Cao, what do you think?"

As soon as these words came out, the huge Hong Tower fell silent.

 Those who are qualified to watch the excitement must understand the situation in the Federation.

 When he heard this name, he already knew that the person speaking now was Robert Morton, one of the five major congressmen.

 And the only one who can make him call "Boss Cao" is Cao Zhengxiong, another member of the five major members of the Cao family.

Robert was dragged into the water by Keen. He did not want to bear the firepower of the parliament alone and directly dragged another senior member into the water.

 Hearing this, the Cao family, who are also members of the parliament, were also helpless.

 You can only show your face.

In a window on the fourth floor, a middle-aged man smoking a cigar agreed: "Yes. Congressman Robert is right. It is difficult for outsiders like us to interfere with the internal affairs of the Song family."

As he said that, the great congressman looked at several other rooms and said hello: "You think so, Miss Olin, old Capone? Oh, and that girl from the Lionheart family."

There are three people mentioned in this sentence. "Miss Olin" is naturally from the golden family of the five major congressmen, and "Capone" is also the surname of the five major congressmen.

 From the Lionheart family, Catalina is naturally here.

 They are all old foxes and they know everything.

This is to bring everyone into the water and bear the firepower together.

 And in itself, this is the tacit understanding of these old foxes who have been playing politics for several generations.

This statement was followed by several others.

“I think what Boss Cao said is right. I also want to express my opinion that my Olin family has been grateful to ‘that person’ a lot over the years. They will handle the internal affairs of the Song family by themselves and we will never get involved.”

“What a coincidence, that old man is also very close to my family, and we will never interfere in the internal affairs of the Song family. If we need to help, our Capone family will also help.”

　　"Your uncles are right, my old man also means the same thing."

 “Hey, the old lion actually asked little Carter to come. It seems that your Lionheart family is going to have a domineering little lion.”

“Uncle Capone, Uncle Robert, Uncle Cao, and Aunt Olin made all the elders laugh. Grandpa originally wanted to come in person, but he has been ill recently, and his niece happened to be in Innocence City, so he came.”

ˆ “.”

 These few words of dialogue between five people have already determined the death of a congressman.

Even now that the New Party is in the spotlight, they all have the same opinion, and any objection is meaningless.

"you.!!"

Congressman Keane also didn’t expect that his request for help would lead to such a large number of important people gathering together.

With this posture, even major federal meetings may not include the presence of several major congressmen.

 But after hearing this, Keen was instantly disappointed.

 Only then did he realize that these old foxes had been waiting for this game for a long time.

 Use the help of the Song family to get rid of him as a "new party member".

 Call for help?

 Just wishful thinking.

But do you want me to die?

 Is it that easy?

Keen’s expression suddenly turned evil and ferocious.

 The Cao family, the Morton family, the golden family Orin, Capone, and the Bai family who appeared before.

 All the five major councilor families are here.

 There is also the Lionheart family who is now known as the "Sixth Councilor".

Ji Xun, who was watching the excitement from a distance, looked at a few big figures showing their faces upstairs, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes.

He also didn’t expect to see some of the most powerful people in the Federation today in Innocence City.

 Even though he has no interest in politics, he now understands.

This time the Song family is not only fighting internally, but also involves turmoil in the federal political situation.

However, some people understand politics, while others understand other things.

Gong Wu on the side looked like he was watching the fun and didn't mind the matter, and muttered: "Killing someone for a while and not taking action yet, what are you waiting for?"

The old man has such a bad temper that he is never verbose when it comes to killing people, and he dislikes people who talk too much.

　　Just like those absurd stories told by bards, if the villain speaks a few more words, he will be saved by an inexplicable person.

Ji Xun feels the same way.

That thief king really made people wait a little too long.

 A legend wants to kill a politician who doesn't even have the third level, which is a matter of one sword.

Just now, I was deliberately waiting for a few big congressmen to show their faces to achieve certain goals.

 But what now?

Without waiting to think about it, Gong Wu seemed to have discovered something at this time, showing an interesting expression, and suddenly changed his words: "Oh, it turns out there is really a master."

Ji Xun also looked over attentively. Who is the person who can make the old man call him a "master"?

Keane gave a ferocious smile, his expression seemed to say: I won’t pretend anymore, you forced me to do so.

 “Boom!”

Without warning, a guy as tall as a mountain broke through the guardrail and fell from the sky.

As soon as this guy hit the ground, it was like a cannonball hitting the ground, and spiderweb-like cracks instantly exploded on the hard ground.

And this guy’s silver armor is extremely eye-catching.

Ji Xun's pupils narrowed slightly, and he also recognized this famous black knight professional armor.

 Level 5 relic, the legendary armor known as the "Immovable Fortress" [Frederick I's Silver Armor]!

This armor is the strongest armor known in the card master world. It is said that no one can break it after wearing it.

 It can be called an immortal body.

However, because this armor was extremely contaminated, every owner died suddenly.

So far I have never heard of anyone who can really control this armor.

Who is this guy who suddenly appeared? How dare he wear armor?

Seeing this armor, Master Merlin smiled and said, "Oh, the heavy pollutants contained in Bureau X's warehouse have actually appeared here. It's interesting."

Gong Wu glanced at it and praised: "It's really a good armor."

However, Ji Xun was originally very interested in armor and was looking forward to seeing whether the Thief King was more powerful or the armor's defense was more powerful.

 But suddenly, he felt a slight sigh in his heart.

 Because the [God-Stealer Ring] flickered lightly on his finger.

Strong blood plague reaction.

 “Vampire?”

Ji Xun then realized that there might not be a person inside the armor.

 But a vampire.

 Seeing this, Ji Xun fell into thinking.

This Congressman Keen seems to be more than just a politician.

 He is most likely a **** of the scarlet corruption in the political arena.

Furthermore, now vampires dare to show up in public. In other words, those guys from the Scarlet Sect have no intention of hiding anymore. Do they plan to kill everyone here as well?

 Just after this guy covered in armor appeared, a man in a cloak also appeared out of thin air.

As soon as the cloaked man appeared, Gong Wu immediately recognized the field surrounding his body and was slightly surprised: "Hey, is this ability a disciple of that guy Gurney? The light chaser of this generation?"

As he said that, the old man also guessed something intuitively: "Oh, Old Man Merlin, wouldn't you have said it was so lively? It's still mysterious."

 Just as soon as these top powerhouses came out, a strong atmosphere of conspiracy came flooding in.

The entire Honglou was plunged into a depressing atmosphere of a storm approaching.

 Even the senior congressmen immediately realized that something was wrong.

 This situation has exceeded their expectations.

Their vision was also clear at a glance, and someone had laid out a big picture.

Someone deliberately lured them to the Sinless City.

Ji Xun looked at the cloaked man who appeared and thought it was Jia Yu with a mushroom head.

This armored man is the person he said he wanted to kill before?

 Looking at this posture, it's not just killing people.

  But the "card game" has begun.

Just when Ji Xun thought the show was about to begin, an unexpected change happened again.

 Outside the window, suddenly a bright white moon slowly rose.

 In the shocked eyes of everyone, the bright moonlight not only illuminated Hong Tower, but even illuminated the entire Sinless City.

Ji Xun looked at the familiar moonlight with a startled expression: "Silver Moon Sect?"

 Scarlet Sect, Silver Moon Sect, Thirteen Knights, Five Councilors. Is this going to be a big fight?

 Suddenly, Ji Xun seemed to understand a little bit of the game.

 There must be a conflict between the two Old God sects.

 The five major congressmen are also each other’s opponents.

 The Thirteen Knights are not allies with any of them.

so.

Are all forces their own enemies?

 Song family line, Scarlet Corruption line, Oran survivors and Silver Moon sect line, and five major councilors.

 A magical force gathered these people in the Innocence City.

"Amazing"

Ji Xun had already glimpsed a corner of the sky-covering net, and was once again impressed by the ability of the mushroom head.

This method is really admirable.

 However, no matter how strong the Thirteen Knights are, there are only a few of them.

 There is no guarantee of victory against any one of these forces.

  How to attract so many big bosses?

Ji Xun did not doubt Mogu Tou’s layout ability.

 Just curious about how he can solve these problems.

 Various thoughts were swirling in his mind, and suddenly he thought of the question asked by the mushroom head before: If one group of people had to be sacrificed in order to save others, how should one choose?

At the same time, Ji Xun also thought of the fragmentary content on the black stone tablet in Shangbang Prison: bury six million people, cut off pollution, and the source of disaster.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　ification.

That mushroom head, isn’t he going to bet the entire Innocence City?
