Cataclysm King

"It turns out that the army of the Southern Continent has already attacked Tailong City for two days? In other words, I have been indulged in a happy dream for two days?"

Ji Xun recovered the memories buried deep in his cognition, and his eyes gradually became clear.

He was finally freed from the illusion of sinking.

Just like waking up from a big dream, the thoughts in the brain become clear in a very short period of time.

Ji Xun found "himself" again.

While being freed from the illusion, it is also accompanied by a pleasant feeling of being extremely energetic after a good night's sleep.

He looked at the attribute panel and saw that the mental power value had increased sharply.

Seeing this, Ji Xun raised his eyebrows and sighed: "This silver moon dream has such a miraculous effect on tempering spiritual power?"

Just this change in data was worth several months of hard training.

It's a blessing in disguise.

As if recalling a dream, some pictures flashed in his mind, and a half-smile appeared on his face, and he said to himself: "But having said that, happy dreams are really interesting."

Apart from anything else, there is really no difference between the joyful scenes in the spiritual world and the real experience.

Ji Xun calmed down his thoughts and observed his surroundings.

He was in a battle fortress made of thick steel.

In order to prepare for the war, Tailong Machinery City had long expected that there would be massacres and street fighting, so it reinforced all the defense facilities in the city.

Such battle fortresses are all over the streets.

Not eye-catching.

Ji Xun also remembered that after the city was breached, the two sides started a fierce street fight in the city.

He himself participated in the battle and fought for most of the day, and finally ambushed and killed several elite teams led by the enemy's fifth-level card masters.

The city was filled with rivers of blood, flying dragons filled the sky, and tens of thousands of people died in battle at all times.

Later, the main army of the southern continent invaded in a large scale, and they hid in an inconspicuous fortress in the northern city.

Normally, the main battlefield in Tyrone City this time has nothing to do with them.

Next comes the evacuation plan.

Qin Ruzhi learned about the battle arrangements of the Federation's third mechanic from Generalissimo Lei Meng.

Once the city is breached and there is no chance of a comeback, the legion will break out.

Ji Xun's original plan was to take advantage of the army's breakthrough to attract firepower, and then find an opportunity to escape.

However, before the army could wait, the Silver Moon Sacred Tree arrived.

And then, waking up is now.

Ji Xun recalled the whole process of the matter, and understood everything, and said to himself: "It seems that those guys from the Silver Moon Sect also calculated the breakout time to launch the sacrifice, and they happened to catch both sides in one fell swoop."

Hey, right.

Where are Qin Rushi and Dong Qi?

I remember they were together.

Ji Xun didn't have time to think about it in his mind because the violent fighting noise coming from outside attracted his attention.

Looking out through the observation window of the fortress, there was a bright silver light outside.

What comes into view is the giant tree that is thousands of meters high and shining with silver light.

There is also a bright silver moon in the sky.

The moonlight shines into the vent, and enlightenment appears as soon as Ji Xun touches it.

"You are immune to the taint of faith directed toward Arachne, Lord of Dreams and Joy."

"You are immune to the erosion of 'Divinity·Happy Dreams'"

Ji Xun didn't dare to be careless at all. While the clown mask covered his face, the phantom of the devil appeared behind him.

After all, Tailong Machinery City is a super city with a population of two million, and the urban area is very large.

After observing for a while, the fighting was happening far away in the center of the city.

Looking at the aftermath of the battle, Ji Xun judged that the masters currently fighting against the sacred tree might be more than the seventh level.

Probably higher.

"In other words, it seems that the two eighth-level marshals from the southern continent are also trapped in Tailong City?"

When Ji Xun saw this, he felt deeply that the Oran Palace had really played a big game.

Although the cost of sacrificing millions of people to let the Moon God come is a bit high, if it is really worth it to an eighth-level card master, there is indeed a chance of greatly reversing the situation in the future war.

Just like right now.

It is obvious that the battle of Tailong Mechanical City is the inevitable defeat for the Donghuang side.

But now it seems that this may not be the case.

Moreover, the moon god Arachne is one of the fifty-two demon gods, and she was also the god that the Augustus royal family used to make a royal contract to deal with the seven natural disaster monarchs.

I'm afraid there are some unexpected methods.

But there are pros and cons.

The old gods need to collect faith and blood media to gather their divine power. This person has arrived. For the card master civilization, it is hard to say what the pros and cons are.

When Ji Xun saw this, his thoughts turned around and he quickly restrained himself.

He couldn't get involved in the battle in the middle of the city.

Judging from the current situation of fierce fighting, that is to say, the two sides are still in a stalemate.

While the enemies on both sides are restrained, the most important thing is to find an opportunity to escape.

But before that, you have to find your friends first.

Ji Xun used the communicator to contact him, but there was no response from Dong Qi. It seemed that he had fallen into an illusion, which was expected.

He contacted Qin Rushi again and got a response this time.

The God Thief sequence is also difficult to be contaminated by divinity. Qin Ruzhi is currently integrating the source card of the God Thief sequence and the inheritance of the Bai family. It makes sense that he can escape from the illusion.

Qin Ru was also surprised when he heard Ji Xun's communication: "Are you awake?"

The hesitant tone seemed to be that he was doubting whether he was still in the illusion.

After all, only those who have experienced it personally will know that it is almost impossible to break away from the magic-level illusion.

Ji Xun didn't explain much and asked, "Well. Aunt Qin, where are you? Where is Qiqi?"

Qin Rushi responded very quickly: "I have encountered a very strong enemy now and I can't escape. Be careful! Leave first if you have a chance."

"."

When Ji Xun heard this, he realized that one of the fierce battles in the city was the movement from Qin Rushi's side.

But after deducing my thoughts, I vaguely felt that something was wrong.

Before he could think about it, Qin Rushi sent another message: "No. 17, Die Casting Factory Street, Beicheng. She should be with the Song family. Also, the moon god has arrived, and the sacred tree is weird, so be careful."

"Yes. Aunt Qin, be careful too."

When Ji Xun heard this, his eyes darkened.

Qin Ru was fighting over there, and he couldn't help.

The first priority right now is to find Dong Qi first.

Knowing the coordinates, a detailed map of the entire city instantly appeared in his mind.

Without a moment's hesitation, Ji Xun turned around and quietly left the bunker.

After leaving the bunker, Ji Xun realized that there was no need to hide traces.

There was dead silence on the streets.

After the people from the southern continent entered the city, they had been engaged in street fighting for nearly two days.

Those dragon-born card masters had no intention of leaving anyone alive, and the massacre after the city was breached left almost every street in Tyron Mechanical City filled with corpses.

The blood had dried on the ground, condensing and turning black.

There was a thick smell of blood and corpses mixed with decay in the air.

There is not a single living person left in the city.

But the eyes of the living people were dull, all looking in the direction of the moon.

There were obsessed smiles on their lips, and their cheeks flushed, as if they had encountered a pleasant scene in a dream, or some deep desire had been satisfied.

Excitement, surprise, enthusiasm.

The streets are filled with a dreamy, mysterious and eerie atmosphere.

Ji Xun walked along the way and met hundreds of people who were trapped in the illusion.

Seeing this strange scene in front of him, he was also frightened: "This illusion is really incomprehensible."

Large-scale undifferentiated group control is really a killer weapon on the battlefield.

If I hadn't noticed the abnormality and escaped from the illusion before, I would have been like these people, controlling myself until death and unable to wake up.

Ji Xun didn't stay long, and he didn't try to get any benefits from the enemies who were under the illusion. He was afraid of attracting the attention of the Moon God.

He tried his best to hide in the darkness where the moonlight could not shine, and quietly rushed towards Die Casting Factory Street.

However, not long after walking, an accident happened.

Ji Xun was walking when he suddenly saw a group of guys wearing white cloaks and long tall hats on the street, with cross patterns on the front of the cloaks.

These guys are walking the streets looking for people alive and killing them one by one.

"Legion of the Moon Cross!"

Ji Xun's eyes narrowed when he saw the attire of those people.

It was at this glance that the accident happened.

"Discovered!"

Ji Xun didn't dare to take any chances. He turned around decisively and merged into the darkness, quickly evacuating towards the escape route he had planned for all along the way.

However, while escaping, he was also puzzled: How did he find it?

Ji Xun felt that he had been careful enough to avoid any possibility of exposure.

Normally, his current methods may not be easily detectable even by a seventh-level person.

But for some reason, the guys in white cloaks suddenly turned their faces and looked towards the alley where he was hiding.

Could it be that the other party is too strong?

wrong!

Those people just now were not very "Qi".

After a little deduction, Ji Xun also ruled out his own reasons.

Not just yourself.

Thinking about it again, Qin Ruzhi and those who were fighting, their ranks and methods were better than his own, how did they get discovered?

After a second thought, Ji Xun came to a conclusion.

In other words, the high probability of being discovered is not a matter of skill or means, but that the moon god has some ability to definitely wake people up from illusions.

But, what is the ability?

Since there is 100% ability to discover awakened people, it must not be discovered out of thin air, but through some way.

Ji Xun searched for all the methods in his mind, but still couldn't understand how the moon god discovered him.

But if he doesn't want to understand this, he will never be able to escape danger no matter where he is.

However, the reality did not give him a chance to think more.

Just before Ji Xun escaped half a block, he suddenly sensed murderous intent coming.

He punched ahead without hesitation.

"Dong" sound,

The ground roared in the void in front of him.

Spider-web-like cracks appeared in the space. Before an assassin in a white cloak could swing his dagger, a large mouthful of blood spurted out, killing him instantly.

Even this punch marked the beginning of a fierce battle.

As soon as Ji Xun turned his head, he realized that the team of Moon Cross Knights had gathered around him.

With one enemy against many, Ji Xun was not afraid at all.

With his current strength, at level seven, he is still somewhat sure of his life.

Now in the entire Eastern Wasteland, it has been confirmed that only the new king Arthur has advanced to the seventh level.

Thinking that luck is not that bad, I let it happen to me.

Even if you meet a legendary card master like Domingo, there is still some hope of escape.

The fact is that the captain of this team is only at level four.

Ji Xun killed him without much effort.

Quickly clearing the threat, he dived back into the darkness.

However, the situation was as bad as expected.

No matter what method, the whereabouts are completely controlled by the enemy.

Ji Xun didn't run very far when another Moon Knight team surrounded him.

This time the leader was a fifth-level black knight.

Ji Xun used a few more moves, but still managed to kill them all without much effort.

Then ran again

Not long after, he was caught up for the third time.

This time the leader of the chasing team was a level six.

Ji Xun was caught in a bitter fight.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"."

That sixth level is also a fighter level, both in terms of strength and combat skills, they are very strong.

Among colleagues, there is a lot of fighting between fists and fists.

The two of them exchanged blows, and from time to time a figure flew out and destroyed a building.

In just a few face-to-face encounters, Ji Xun confirmed that this was a master that he could not escape from!

If he meets such a master elsewhere, he must be interested in having a hearty fight.

But now that he was being held back, Ji Xun felt that something was wrong.

Not to mention whether the enemy has reinforcements, if it is later, something unexpected will happen.

Thinking of this, Ji Xun became a little more ruthless.

He wanted to try if he could kill this opponent.

But the truth is cruel. No matter what method Ji Xun uses, the other party will follow.

That feeling of being suppressed was something Ji Xun had never encountered before.

"Strange, since when did Donghuang have such a master?"

The more he felt, the more surprised he became.

At the same time, I was also very confused.

"The sixth level of Donghuang is more or less famous. This guy is also a fighter. How come I have never heard of it? And this boxing method is so retro. Why doesn't it feel like a school that is inherited now? Is it another Austrian school? A secret master trained by Lan Wangting?"

The opponent is too strong!

This is already far beyond the standard of a normal Eastern Wasteland sixth-level card master.

And as a half-comer, those fighting skills and punches look very retro at first glance.

More like an ancient genre from thousands of years ago.

The only possibility that Ji Xun could think of was that this was a master secretly cultivated by the Oran royal family.

The pace of the battle was too fast, giving him no time to breathe.

Dong Qi was not found, and Ji Xun had no intention of escaping from Tailong City.

Moreover, his increasingly solid "meaning" gave him a very strange crisis intuition: no matter where he fled, the crisis would never be resolved.

Just like this, without realizing it, the two sides were fighting for nearly two hours.

"You observe the 'Ancient Martial Arts: Crane Style', and your fighting comprehension will be +194."

"You have comprehended the 'Advanced Air Control Secret Technique', and your proficiency is +33."

"You gain experience +332 in battle, 'Waterfall Fist Lv1 (8/300)'."

"I gained insights during the battle, and my proficiency in 'Crane Divine Needle·Shadowless Body Technique' increased by 113."

"."

Enlightenment keeps refreshing.

The battle is in a very delicate balance.

The other party can't kill him.

Ji Xun couldn't do anything to the other party.

The stalemate continued like this.

Ji Xun's understanding allows him to easily understand and master some of the opponent's martial arts skills in battle.

Therefore, when he saw through the details of those moves that he had never heard of before, his suspicion became more and more intense.

But he didn't know where the source of this strangeness was.

I, the world, automatically deduced a contradiction: a secret master only knows some special skills, but he can't be full of martial arts that he has never heard of before, right?

Intuition told Ji Xun that he might have overlooked something.

Ji Xun gave up his own judgment and started an almost numb "deduction" with all his strength.

When he was chatting with Jia Yu before, the light-chasing leader deliberately pointed out the specialness of the secret method "I am the world".

That is, the conclusion obtained by "deduction" is closer to the facts and truth than the conclusion obtained by "subjective consciousness".

People's subjective consciousness will be affected by their position and environment, causing errors in judgment.

The deduction is like the formula of a mathematical problem, which is objective and real.

For example: 1+1=2.

This conclusion does not require subjective judgment and will not be changed by the environment.

This is why some scientists in previous lives famously said, "The truth of the universe is hidden in mathematics."

"Maybe it's not that I didn't think of it, but that some of my cognitions were blocked like I was in an illusion. As a result, I ignored some necessary factors."

Ji Xun continued to deduce this idea while fighting.

Suddenly, he deduced a conclusion that his subjective consciousness would never think about: "Is it possible that I haven't woken up at all now, and I am still in the illusion?"

In a dream, you will never reflect on whether your knowledge is perfect.

But "I am the world" bypasses subjective consciousness and deduce the results.

As soon as this conclusion came out, it was like a wake-up call.

Ji Xun once again felt the thrill of falling into an ice cave.

It was like waking up from a happy dream before, as if I woke up all of a sudden.

His expression suddenly froze: "I understand!"

People's perception is limited at all times.

Even in the real world, the "world" you see is always a part of the world that you can recognize and understand.

This is also one of the principles of illusion.

By constructing a fantasy world based on your own cognition, you will never be able to see the logical flaws of the world.

Can never "wake up".

In order to confirm his thoughts, Ji Xun dialed the communicator.

"Aunt Qin, is your opponent over there unable to be killed or finished?"

"Yeah! Have you encountered it too?"

"After you woke up, did the fighting in other places never stop?"

"right!"

"I think I understand what's going on."

"."

Ji Xun hung up the communicator, and the corners of his mouth gradually raised.

He wiped the blood that he had just spit out and looked at the sixth-level Moon Knight opposite him, grinning wantonly.

At this moment, he finally understood.

Why do you encounter such an enemy who can't kill you, and you can't kill the other party?

Seeing the enemy attacking fiercely, Ji Xun did not dodge or even plan to block.

He just looked at it indifferently.

If you don't dodge, this punch to the head will definitely kill you on the spot.

The strong wind has come, and the strong energy like needles has already pricked people's scalp and numbed them.

The instinctive fear of death causes people to avoid and choose all means of survival.

At this moment, Ji Xun didn't say: "Hey."

He was grinning like a clown shadow behind him, with crazy pride burning in his eyes.

The madness within suppressed all other thoughts.

If you guess wrong, go to hell!

At this moment, the Moon Knight punched him in the head.

Ji Xun didn't even bat an eyelid.

I watched this bizarre scene play out clearly.

The punch that was originally enough to explode his head did not cause any damage at all. Even the Moon Knight turned into a phantom and passed through Ji Xun's body.

The fight was clearly inextricable just now.

Now it has become an illusory light and shadow like a movie.

When Ji Xun saw this, there was no trace of surprise on his face. Instead, there was a trace of the truth flowing in the law.

Because the enemy is illusion.

At this moment, he saw through everything.

This place in front of me is not the real Tailong Machinery City.

And still

The fantasy and illusion world of the moon god Aknira!

This is multiple dreams.

The first dream is to regain self-awareness and understand that you are in an illusion;

The second dream is the fantasy world created by Arachne, the Lord of Dreams.

Ji Xun has now seen through the second level.

This is why, no matter how hidden it was, it was discovered.

Because from the beginning to the end, Ji Xun and the others never left the illusion world.

The enemies encountered were just right and balanced, in fact, it was also because of this reason.

Ji Xun even knew just now that if he dodged the punch, no matter how clumsy his movements were, he would not die.

Then the stalemate will continue.

Just like Qin Rushi, fighting with other awakened people.

It's been two days since the city was destroyed. Logically speaking, the battle should be almost over.

But why didn't it end?

Why haven't all the magic power and physical energy been exhausted?

Those awakened people have been fighting fiercely, not because they are strong, nor because their opponents are just right.

And the truth is, they won't die at all!

Because all enemies are actually created by themselves.

Just like you are in a nightmare, you will encounter all kinds of evil spirits chasing you, but as long as you don't wake up from the dream, you will never die in the dream and will always be trapped in the nightmare.

This illusion is much more advanced. In addition to people's own cognition, it is also a fantasy world built by the Moon God!

Precisely because it is the fantasy world of the Moon God, those who fall into it are also shielded from some knowledge.

For example: Why do you keep fighting?

The essence of illusion is a "control system" mental spell, which cannot directly kill the target in the fantasy world.

This nightmare of infinite battle is a kind of sinking.

People are always exhausted in fear and crisis and unable to think.

Ji Xun can see through it, except for the "I am the world" deduction.

There is another indispensable condition.

That is, he also knows the unique magic and mysterious method of the moon god Aknira - "The God of the Sky".

Ji Xun has practiced this mysterious magic method, and his attainments are not low.

He is probably the only card master in the world who practices this secret method but is not a follower of the moon god Aknira.

Therefore, he may be the only one who has the opportunity to actively break through the illusion with his own consciousness.
