Chapter 285: Ambush the traitor and infiltrate

Chapter 285: Ambush and infiltrate the traitor

 There is also a very critical point in Ji Xun's latent plan.

That is to avoid the seventh-level card master who can transform into a flying dragon.

His current disguise ability was evaluated by two legendary powerhouses, Jia Yu and Irene, as having no flaws.

 But many abilities of card masters above level seven are unknown.

 It’s best to avoid it just in case.

I didn’t expect Catalina’s plan to be more direct. She actually planned to ambush that guy?

 The moment she asked for help, Ji Xun immediately realized what she wanted to say.

 It’s not about joining the war yourself.

  But I want to contact some people through my own connections.

 The Lion Heart family is very powerful. With all the top power and various relics and equipment, it may not be impossible to kill a seventh-level person.

 But that would be very risky.

Even if they are killed, at least both sides will suffer losses.

 So, a key figure is needed here.

 That is the number one expert in the Federation—Gong Wu!

 The Lionhearts are, after all, the number one warlord in the Federation. Catalina grew up in this environment, and she has a keener sense of politics.

She was afraid that Ji Xun would not understand her plan, so she explained in detail: "According to the available information, the Airel Ancient Dragon Empire is very far away from our Eastern Continent, and those who attacked the 'Cross New City' were only a pioneer army responsible for exploring the Old Continent. . If there are no special marching methods, it will take at least one or two months for the enemy's first wave of reinforcements to arrive. During this period, those enemies will definitely not be idle."

"Um."

Ji Xun nodded as he listened, thoughts racing in his mind.

 He doesn’t know much about politics, and there are some things he really didn’t expect.

Catalina continued: "And according to intelligence, the Vanguard Legion of the Ancient Dragon Empire has a 'combat merit mechanism'. If there are major discoveries during exploration, there will be military merit rewards. For example, the discovery of our card master federation is a first-class meritorious service. . That seventh-level warrior now probably knows that our federation’s top combat power is only sixth-level, so he will inevitably underestimate the enemy. Therefore, he must have other ideas. After all, falling into a city, beheading generals, and destroying a country are all big things that can only be encountered but cannot be expected. Merit. I suspect that guy may have the intention of sneaking into the Eastern Continent and beheading the top federal officials. He rushes in to seek merit!"

ˆ “.”

Hearing this, Ji Xun narrowed his eyes slightly and felt that this was very possible.

If he had a seventh-level strength, he would also choose to try it.

 So, this is an opportunity for an ambush.

And regardless of whether you want to ambush or not, the enemy will most likely come.

 “There is another point that must be paid attention to.”

At this time, Catalina changed the topic, a sharp light flashed in her crystal eyes, and said in a deep voice: "In war, the enemy is never the only threat."

Ji Xun raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh?"

  Katrina: “In war, besides ‘main battle’ and ‘defense’, there is actually another option.”

Ji Xun also guessed what she wanted to say, "You mean surrendering to the enemy?"

"Um."

Catalina nodded and said sternly: "In the face of danger, human nature is the most difficult to foresee risk. Especially in this kind of war, which seems to have no chance of winning, some people will inevitably think that instead of waiting to die, it is better to make plans early. Regardless of how our Lionheart family is actively preparing for war, I estimate that some of the federal congressmen with ulterior motives may have sent people to secretly contact those enemies."

Hearing this, Ji Xun asked curiously: "Is there anyone suspected?"

 Know who the moles are in advance so you can be on guard against them in the future.

Catalina shook her head and responded: "Except for people from the Oran Royal Court, it's possible. The five major members, members of the House of Representatives, and even civilian speculators. After all, if they think that the Federation will definitely lose, they can make plans early and at least have some control over them." Initiative. With such a large population base in the Federation, even if it is enslaved, it will definitely need managers."

 The Lionhearts retreated so simply because, in addition to wanting to take a chance on hope, another consideration was that they did not want to get involved in those meaningless intrigues.

Those guys sitting in the federal parliament now have long been a pile of stinky carrion covered by bright uniforms.

Ji Xun also showed a thoughtful expression while listening.

Catalina's attitude towards the main battle was very firm, and she finally said: "There is absolutely no luck in this war. I don't want to fight on the front line and be stabbed in the back by those guys from the Federation with ulterior motives. War is inevitable anyway, Let’s put some pressure on those guys.”

ˆ “.”

Ji Xun smiled knowingly after hearing this.

 I also understand why she wanted to ambush the seventh level.

 Beheading the enemy general will definitely anger the enemy commander.

 In this way, the guys in the Federal Parliament are cornered.

 At least those who want to "surrender to the enemy" have their way cut off.

 Forcibly tied the entire federation to the chariot.

Ji Xun also felt that this plan was very satisfying.

 It can also boost morale by trying to stabilize the outside world.

Katarina also expressed her request: "So, I want you to help me contact your teacher, Mr. Gongwu. Only with him here can this ambush have a real chance of winning."

Ji Xun had no reason to refuse, but he couldn't agree for the senior, so he said: "I can help you contact him. But senior Gong Wu is not in Sinless City now. I'm not sure when he will come back. I'm not sure either. Will he agree to take action?"

Even though he said this, he felt that if Gong Wu knew about it, he would definitely take action.

 Being able to fight against strong men was the old man’s only pursuit.

But the only trouble is that Master Meilin said that Gong Wu went to Xia Mu City to look for super-level materials and prepare to advance to the seventh level.

Ji Xun is not sure when he will come back.

Katrina smiled sweetly: "Yeah. It's already good."

She thought of something at this time and added: "Oh, and I also want you to contact the Revolutionary Army."

As he spoke, he looked at Ji Xun with a hint of joking and said, "After all, everyone knows that you have a good relationship with the "Valkyrie" Qin."

 More than just a good relationship.

  In the Shenxu Treasure House, many people witnessed the battle in which Qin Rushi almost risked his life to help Ji Xun block two of King Oran's four knights.

From the perspective of outsiders, for the leader of the revolutionary army to be so protective, the relationship between the two must be extraordinary.

 Some people even speculate that Ji Xun is also a senior member of the revolutionary army.

Ji Xun also understood the hint of ridicule.

 The explanation is unclear, and I don’t want to explain it.

He only said: "I can also contact you. But I can't guarantee that she will respond."

"certainly."

Katrina raised her eyebrows, already very satisfied.

She seemed to be confident that as long as she could be contacted, the other party would definitely help.

 After all, she knows more than others.

Thinking back to the gambling fight in Honglou, not only did I lose all my clothes, but the Valkyrie Qin also took off her clothes in full view.

 In such a relationship that is not taboo, there are always more possibilities if you open your mouth.

Catalina calmed down the thoughts racing in her mind and said: "With this big change, I think the revolutionary army will most likely not continue to waste time in the Eastern Continent. If they choose to come to the Old Continent, I think our Lion Heart The Family and the Revolutionary Army will be good partners. They have enough experience in guerrilla warfare, and we, the Lionheart Family, have the best equipment and resources."

Ji Xun nodded: "Yeah."

Now that the situation in the Federation has changed, some conflicts have suddenly changed.

 He also felt that the Revolutionary Army and the Lionhearts were indeed good partners for cooperation.

As soon as Catalina finished speaking, her thoughts popped up one after another, and she asked: "Also, are you familiar with the Thirteen Knights?"

As she spoke, she said directly: "What I mean is, if you can, can you also help me communicate? The more helpers I can have, the better the chance of winning."

There is nothing to hide from this person, Ji Xun said: "Yes. We have a bit of a friendship. Let me try for you."

 “Okay! Thank you~”

Katrina listened, and a hint of joy passed through her crystal eyes.

From what she knows about this guy’s character, he must be very familiar with him if he can be said to be “somewhat familiar” with him.

 For some reason, Catalina felt that the pressure in her heart was suddenly relieved a lot when she met Ji Xun.

  The tense nerves relaxed a lot. She blinked and muttered: "I just realized that you seem to know a lot of powerful people."

Ji Xun smiled noncommittally.

They didn’t need to be so polite when talking to each other. He instead joked: “Miss Carter, aren’t you also a ‘big shot’ that I know?”

 He couldn't tell why.

Perhaps it has something to do with your adventurous personality?

As long as you often get involved in high-risk events, you will always come into contact with powerful people who can get involved in those big events.

 I didn’t die, but I gradually got to know him.

 “It’s my pleasure~”

Hearing this, Catalina grinned.

 Everything that can be done has been done now.

The pile of urgent documents on the table suddenly became less urgent.

 These messages could originally have been delivered through other channels, but the messages had timeliness and credibility, and it was most appropriate to have an intermediary that both parties trusted absolutely. And some of the people you contacted are very special, such as the Revolutionary Army and the Thirteen Knights, who are all federal wanted criminals. If you say you invite, people may not believe your motives. The most special one is Gong Wu, who is the only one who knows how to get along with that old man. The only person the senior has a connection with is Ji Xun.

Katrina felt like she had always been lucky when she met this guy.

 Start with your own hero trial.

Of course, except for the first gambling fight in Honglou.

 Oh, no! It seems that we got to know each other because of this, is it some kind of luck?

With thoughts racing in her mind, she thought of something and suddenly suggested, "How about we drink some wine?"

Ten minutes ago, her biggest headache was ambushing the seventh-level enemy.

Before, I always felt that there was not much chance of winning, so I tried every means to win this tough battle.

Now that I have met this guy, although I have not solved the problem, at least the hope of success has increased a lot.

Ji Xundao: "Okay."

 Catalina listened, already took out a bottle of wine from the wine cabinet, and poured two glasses into crystal glasses.

 “Cheers~”

The two clinked glasses, and the crisp sound echoed in the room.

The aroma of the wine filled his nose, and Ji Xun took a sip.

 “Oh, that’s right.”

Catalina thought of something, took out a brass mechanical object from the storage ring, and said: "This is a 'military micro communicator'. An ancient mechanical product made from blueprints was found in the ruins. It has no energy now. The product was originally the secret equipment of my Lionheart family. You can take it first so that we can contact you later."

Ji Xun took the walkie-talkie-like machine and said, "Yeah."

 Archaeology is indeed the primary productive force.

These black technologies still have to be created by the seniors thousands of years ago.

 With this thing, contact is indeed much easier.

Katrina drank the amber wine in the crystal glass, and there was a hint of confusion in her eyes.

At this time, she said calmly: "No matter what the situation is. This is the first direct conflict, and our Lionheart family will do our best to deal with it. In this battle, I will definitely stick to the Nugget Pier until the end, and I may not survive."

As she said this, she glanced at Ji Xun, then lowered her gaze, and continued to pour him a glass of wine: "So, maybe this is the last time we meet." As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the room was slightly like a life and death farewell. Sad.

 The extraordinary world never lacks such cruelty, and everyone seems to have become accustomed to it.

Ji Xun glanced at Catalina.

 Suddenly I understood why she suddenly became interested in drinking.

 The two of them clinked another glass of wine in silence.

Ji Xun pondered for a moment and suddenly said: "Miss Carter, if you can live, live well. Next time, I will treat you to a drink."

  No matter how you say it, the two of them are friends who trust each other.

"good."

Katrina responded happily, paused, and said: "You too."

While the Lionhearts were actively preparing for war, the construction of the steel battle fort at Nugget Pier was in full swing.

 Outside the ruins of Devil's Crossing.

The vanguard team of the Gulong Empire has gathered hundreds of people here.

On the red bonfire, several huge monsters were roasted until they were golden and oily, and the aroma was fragrant.

 After all, it is just a vanguard group with too few people.



The group now has to wait for reinforcements to arrive.

 It’s a time of eating and drinking.

At this time, a sentry dressed as an assassin led several mysterious guys in cloaks to approach the fire and reported: "Captain Ron, there are a few guys from the Eastern Wasteland who say they have important information. To report.”

Red-haired Ron looked at it and snorted, but he was not very interested: "Oh?"

 Seeing these guys, he had already guessed their intentions.

The dozens of high-level card masters on the side also looked at the cloaked men in front of them with eager eyes, with sarcastic smiles on their faces.

The men in cloaks had never seen a seventh-level strong man before, and they were so overwhelmed by the aura mixed with dragon power that they broke out in cold sweat.

  The leader of the cloaked man lifted up his cloak, revealing a pale goatee face.

Even though he is considered a high-ranking official in the Federation, at this moment, he was suppressed by this real murderous intention and his words were trembling: "Dear Lord Strong, I have been entrusted by the head of my family to report some matters to you. , I brought a little gift by the way."

After saying this, a card master who looked like a sorcerer translated his words into Talon.

Taking advantage of this gap, Goatee dared to swallow his saliva, and carefully glanced around at the guys who were as strong as barbarians from the corner of his eye.

Red-haired Ron doesn't have much patience for nonsense.

 He used a knife to cut off a piece of roast meat on the campfire and put it into his mouth. He responded: "I'll give you a minute. Say what you want."

 This is a completely unequal conversation.

  There is no way for the cloaked man to say "no" at all.

 If you don’t express your intention as soon as possible, the other party may not be interested in hearing them live.

Listening to the translator's words, Goatee hurriedly said: "Yes! Sir! The head of my family is Harold Capone, one of the five major congressmen of the Card Master Federation, the real person in power. Of course, he is an insignificant little person in front of you. . We are here, firstly, to express the goodwill of our Capone family, and secondly, to bring some gifts to you adults."

As he spoke, he and several people behind him took off their storage rings and took out a lot of ancient relics and jewelry.

They also know that what attracts the seventh-level powerhouses is definitely not ordinary gold and silver treasures, so these are top-quality goods.

In addition to the treasures that the Capone family has collected for hundreds of years, there are also some ancient relics from hunting in the Old World during this period.

This "meeting gift" is priceless.

 Sure enough.

 Looking at the piles of treasures, Ron and the dragon-born card masters' expressions became much kinder.

 But the sarcasm in his eyes was even stronger.

  In their eyes, the Kashi Federation is already a lamb to be slaughtered.

The lambs brought their skins to bribe the hungry wolves who discovered the flock, but they also had delicious meat.

This was not over yet. Goatee quickly took out a few more rolls of blueprints and presented them respectfully, saying: "Sir, there are also these blueprints. These are the latest defense plans for Nugget Pier and Innocence City. There are also the latest defense plans of the Federation. The detailed map includes the locations of major cities and main defense forces. This is enough to show our sincerity."

 Ron looked at the pile of drawings, a hint of joy appeared on his face, and asked: "What do you want?"

Although the Card Master Federation is nothing to fear in their eyes.

 But after all, the Eastern Wasteland is too big. With these maps, it will provide too much convenience for their conquest and plunder.

 In the empire, obtaining intelligence about the enemy is also a "first-class meritorious service".

These gift givers are smart and know what they need.

  Goatee also felt that the depressing atmosphere suddenly lightened, and he breathed a sigh of relief: "The head of my family said that we don't need anything. It is the greatest honor of our Capone family to be able to serve you, sir."

"hehe."

 Ron narrowed his eyes slightly as he listened.

 Although the war requires these "mutineers".

 But he is also a professional soldier after all, and he cannot look down upon such a despicable character.

The other party is so powerful that there is no room for negotiation, and Goatee has no hope of getting any respect.

He was afraid that he did not have enough chips, so he quickly said: "Oh, gentlemen, and the most important point is that as far as we know, the Lionheart family has assembled a large number of troops to defend the Nugget Pier, and there are several legendary masters. My lords, you must be careful. Then there is the Oran Royal Court, the Augustus royal family of the Talon Dynasty for three thousand years. They control the only passage to the abyss rift."

This guy poured out the information he knew as if he were pouring beans.

No one would have thought that the enemy hadn't come yet.

The Capone family, one of the five major federal congressmen, has sold the entire federation.

 Ron didn’t expect to get so much important information so easily.

But when he looked at the goatee, there was a hint of caution in his eyes.

 Waiting for the guy to finish speaking, he said lightly: "Search for souls."

Before the men in cloaks understood what was happening, the leader with goatee rolled his eyes and fell to the ground.

 A death card master stepped forward, took out a card, and summoned a wisp of transparent soul smoke from the corpse.

  The few living cloaked men were trembling with fear as they watched this horrific scene.

  But no one dared to say a word or resist. They only watched the souls of their companions being searched, as if they were also waiting for their own imminent death judgment.

However, this fear did not last long.

 After a while, the soul search ended.

Ron got the result he wanted and didn't continue killing people.

He said to several pale-faced guys: "Let me tell your family master that I, Ron, have accepted the gift. Ask them to arrange for people to wait for news at the Nugget Pier. My people will arrive soon, so be prepared to respond. "

Those people were so frightened that they lost their minds and said quickly: "Yes, sir!"

As soon as the people left, the pioneers of the Airel Empire started talking.

“Tsk, tsk, it seems that we are going to make a great contribution this time. That is to say, our vanguard group has fewer people, otherwise we would be able to directly defeat the Card Master Federation now.”

“Speaking of which, although the people in Donghuang are weak, they still have a lot of good things. We will make a fortune this time.”

“I thought we were going to fight at least a dozen people. I didn’t expect that we had just massacred a city, and those guys were so frightened that they surrendered. The captain’s decision was really brilliant.”

“The opportunity to make a fortune is yet to come! Tsk tsk, although this Eastern Wasteland is weak, it still has a **** large population. There is no shortage of cannon fodder now.”

ˆ “.”

Everyone's tone was filled with contempt for the national strength of the Card Master Federation, as well as greed for the massive wealth after the war.

No matter how barren the Eastern Wasteland is, mineral resources and population are still hard currency.

 In the eyes of these people, the hundreds of millions of people are already shining gold coins.

Legion Commander Ron looked at the drawing in his hand, thought for a moment, and finally made the decision he had been struggling with for a long time.

"Looking at these gifts, the 'Capone family' should indeed be the powerful ones in the East Wasteland. I plan to go to the Nugget Pier to check and confirm the information. If everything goes well, I will go to the East Wasteland."

 He didn't finish his sentence.

 If possible, he planned to try to capture the king, councilors, etc. directly.

If you can capture and kill the enemy king at the beginning of the battle, this will be a great achievement.

Hearing this, some people still cautiously asked: "Legion Commander, is there any fraud?"

 Ron shook his head and sneered: "So what if it's a lie?"

His self-confidence comes from his strong strength, and he said proudly: "The Capone family is aware of current affairs, and they surrender with peace of mind. Even if they really have evil intentions, it doesn't matter. Although the intelligence said that there are people in the Card Master Federation Some level six, but if I set my mind to leaving, no one can keep me.”

 “Yes, sir!”

 Everyone thinks so too.

The strength gap is too big, they don’t think there will be any surprises.

Even if there is real risk, this huge wealth must be gambled.

That seventh-level enemy may attack at any time.

Ji Xun didn’t dare to stay at the Nugget Pier.

 After leaving a message to Gong Wu and the others, he left alone.

The plan to ambush Tier 7 at Nugget Pier is not his battlefield. He must dare to go elsewhere as soon as possible.

 The benefits of having intelligence support were immediately apparent. Ji Xun accurately knew the location of the pioneers of the Airel Empire.

Those guys relied on their own strength to burn, kill, and loot all the way. They did not cover up their whereabouts, and it was difficult to cover up.

But after all, there are few people, and they are still active near Devil's Crossing.

The train to Devil's Crossing has stopped running, so Ji Xun can only ride a motorcycle, risking being surrounded by monsters in the wilderness and going alone.

Although the Airel Empire is powerful, the seventh-level card master is also a rare master at the level of a legion commander.

This time in the vanguard group, we have only found such an unsolvable strong man.

Ji Xun quickly arrived near the Devil's Cross ruins.

But he was in no hurry to touch those people.

 Instead, walk around and observe.

 Until three days later.

Katrina sent a message saying that the seventh-level man appeared at the Nugget Pier.

Ji Xun then knew that his opportunity to sneak in had come.

 The real protracted war is fought with intelligence.

No matter what the outcome of the battle at the Nugget Pier is, the latent actions on his side are equally important.
