Cataclysm King

"Leader!"

Aragorn and his Panlong army looked at their leader Griffith who came out of the oil painting door, and their expressions could not hide their worries.

Ji Xun also frowned as he looked at them.

Griffith not only vomited blood, but her state was also very strange.

She was like a character from a black and white movie, and at this moment, she was completely black and white.

After spitting out a mouthful of black blood, her breath was visibly weakened.

The injury that could make a ninth-level person lose his composure like this must be serious.

Ji Xun knew that Griffith was a [Painter] sequence, and this state looked a bit like a supernatural power out of control.

But what puzzled him more was that this supernatural person at the peak of the card master was actually injured?

She also mastered some of the laws of space, and could run away even if she couldn't win, so how could she be injured so seriously?

Griffith waved his hand to indicate that he was fine.

She glanced at Ji Xun from the corner of her eye and nodded slightly, as a greeting to the guests.

She glanced at Chujiu and Nanjing from the corner of her eye, and a subtle strange color flashed in her crystal eyes.

Everyone sat together by the fire.

Griffith took several potions, and it seemed that her face had a little rosy color.

Gradually, the whole person changed from black and white to the colorful colors of normal humans.

Aragorn couldn't help asking: "Leader, what happened?"

"Just now, we were ambushed by the cardinal of the Holy See."

Griffith explained lightly.

The cardinal is a clergyman with a status second only to the Pope, and is also the peak combat power of the Holy See.

Everyone listened and understood what happened.

However, Ji Xun's eyes were thoughtful, and he noticed something fishy in the deduction.

In a blink of an eye, Griffith looked at everyone's puzzled expressions, and explained in detail: "I don't know what means those people from the Holy See used to discover our adventure team exploring in the ruins. In order not to cause greater losses, I deliberately showed up to lead people here, but I didn't expect to be ambushed."

The rebel dragon army frowned when they heard it, but they seemed to be accustomed to this daily life of being chased and blocked.

Aragorn realized the seriousness of the situation and asked again: "Should we go over and join the war?"

After all, the most important purpose of their Dragon Rebel Army coming to the ruins this time is to develop it first.

This side is just a bait, and the exploration team over there is the main force.

"Not for the time being."

Griffith shook his head and said: "Those people are now heading for the alien space and queen worm in the ruins, and they can't get away in a short time."

As she said, she seemed to explain this specifically to Ji Xun: "We just discovered several alien spaces related to "The Battle of Behemoth" two days ago, and we are sending people to explore. If nothing unexpected happens, it is the space closest to the truth of the battle that destroyed the Taren Dynasty. However, it is very difficult to develop, and the current progress is not fast. Now that it has been discovered by the people of the Holy See, it seems that there will be more trouble."

As soon as he said this, Ji Xun had actually deduced the biggest possibility.

No one was an outsider at the scene, so he said directly: "It should be that the people from the Orlan Royal Court deliberately attracted the Holy See over there."

Everyone nodded in agreement when he said this.

The purpose is also very simple.

Whether it was the people of the Arel Empire or the rebel dragon army team developing the ruins, the Orlan Royal Court could do nothing about it.

In order to prevent either side from succeeding, the best option for the Orlan Royal Court was to let the two sides fight so that they could benefit from it.

Just like the jar of the insect mother Karakta that was unsealed in the ruins before.

They took advantage of others to explore the ruins at a huge cost, and finally the guys of the Orlan Royal Family took advantage of their familiarity with the ruins and reaped the benefits.

As for how to determine the location of the rebel dragon army

The people of the Orlan Royal Court can place hidden players in the top of the Holy See, so it is not surprising that there are informants in the Alliance Army or even the rebel dragon army.

The situation is indeed quite bad, but it is not unexpected.

Moreover, the rebel dragon army has been fighting with the Holy See for thousands of years, so this time is nothing special for them.

After Griffith said a few words, he looked at Ji Xun and the others.

Although she had received the message before and knew the existence of Chujiu and Nan Jing.

But seeing it with her own eyes, the leader of the rebel dragon army could not hide his surprise.

But thinking that he and Ji Xun were friends, it seemed understandable.

Aragorn and the others knew that Chujiu and Nanjing had special identities, and guessed that their leader had some secrets to discuss, so they went to patrol the surrounding area tactfully.

Only Griffith and Ji Xun were left by the campfire.

Ji Xun certainly saw that the leader of the rebel dragon army had something to say.

After all, she asked a lot of questions about the royal family of Augustus in the East Wilderness in the void rift before.

At that time, Ji Xun actually saw that the rebel dragon army had some inexplicable sense of belonging to the royal bloodline, which seemed to be related to some ancient contracts.

The facts were similar to what Ji Xun guessed.

The empire was destined to collapse at that time, so the royal court sent Xinhuo to other places.

And the people who led the Xinhuo team were all officials loyal to the Augustus royal family.

Augustus sent "Xinhuo" not only to continue the Kashi civilization, but also to leave some arrangements for the continuation of the royal rule.

So, it also involved some ancient blood contracts that were unknown to outsiders.

Although both parties knew each other's identities, Ji Xun still took the initiative to introduce: "This is Ms. Griffith, the leader of the Rebel Dragon Army."

After all, they are top experts. Even if Chujiu and Nanjing have special status, they will be in awe when they see them.

However, what is unexpected is that before Ji Xun finished his introduction, Griffith stood up and showed an friendly smile.

Then he held the outer hem of his culottes towards the two of them and performed a very ancient palace ceremony: "I have met Her Royal Highness the Princess."

This scene is like the guardian he met at the Imperial Tomb in the Rune Highlands.

Although Chujiu, who has already become a king, has a calm expression, he is not used to this title. He quickly said: "Ms. Griffith, you misunderstood, I am not a princess."

Hearing this, Griffith shook his head and showed an easy-going smile, saying: "You are a descendant of Augustus, so of course you are a princess. My ancestor was once an internal official of Talon Palace, so it is appropriate to call you this." It should be.”

Ji Xun had spent a few days with this person before.

He is also familiar with the other party's character.

This leader of the Dragon Rebel Army does not have the arrogance of a top powerhouse at all, but is more like an easy-going and undisciplined artist.

When Chujiu heard this, he glanced at Ji Xun and said nothing more.

This familiarity also makes the atmosphere less serious.

After saying that, Griffith smiled and nodded to Miss Ballhead: "Priest Nan. You are as cute and beautiful as Ji Xun said before."

This makes her more casual, like meeting a new friend.

When Nan Jing heard this, he was slightly startled, and a trace of panic immediately appeared on his round face, and said: "How could it be~ Ms. Griffith, you are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen."

Although she was happy to be complimented, she didn't dare to respond to being complimented on her beauty by a woman who was prettier than herself.

Ji Xun didn't know what he thought of as he listened, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

The beauty of the witch is indeed extraordinary.

To be honest, he has never seen a woman who is more perfect in appearance than Griffith.

Hearing Nan Jing's words, Griffith smiled tenderly, and all kinds of charm were revealed from his spring eyes.

She asked back: "Ji Xun didn't tell you my career sequence?"

When Chujiu and Nan Jing heard this, they cast curious glances, as if wondering why she asked like this.

After being stunned for a moment, Nan Jing seemed to react, "Don't you?"

Griffith admitted generously: "Yes. I am a 'witch'."

As soon as these words came out, Chujiu and Nan Jing's expressions were obviously different.

They didn't expect that such a beautiful lady could actually be a witch?

The witch is completely female, both physically and psychologically.

Legend has it that there were many internal officials in the Talon Palace who performed this extraordinary sequence.

Ji Xun stayed by the side and said nothing.

Indeed, I have never mentioned this issue before.

After all, this is someone else's privacy.

As soon as these words came out, some subtle embarrassment seemed to be diluted.

Ji Xun also secretly thought that this person is really smart in dealing with people.

Griffith had previously learned about Chujiu's existence from Ji Xun's mouth.

Although I have never seen it, I have already guessed it.

To be regarded as a close friend by Ji Xun, there must be certain traits that resonate with him.

Griffith is actually already very optimistic about Chujiu's lineage, although there is no Augustus bloodline in power.

Now that I have seen it with my own eyes, many of my previous thoughts have been confirmed in my mind.

But Griffith didn't say much.

After getting to know each other, they talked more about gossip.

Such as those ancient palace legends passed down for three thousand years.

For example, how the last emperor "Mad King" Alduin turned from a wise king to a tyrant, how the Moon Queen Montini fascinated all living beings with her stunning beauty, and how the high priest Nan Shenyu had great supernatural powers.

These powerful men who once took charge of a large empire left a colorful mark in history.

Although Chujiu and Nanjing have special status, they have never heard of those stories due to the age of civilization.

And unlike the observer Ji Xun,

What the two heard was the story of their ancestors.

Although I have never seen it, it is the origin flowing in my blood.

Ji Xun was also listening with interest.

History is really like a thousand-layer cake. For a period of history that happened at the same time, the historical truth seen from every angle is different.

After all, Griffith's ancestor was a palace official, and the story she told is even more true than the historical data.

As if reminiscing about old times, he slowly told those unknown stories.

We talked like this for a long time.

With this layer of relationship passed down from our ancestors, the atmosphere of chatting quietly became very warm.

Nan Jing is relatively cheerful, and she even occasionally takes the initiative to ask some questions.

Although Chujiu didn't speak, he listened attentively.

As they chatted, the few of them no longer felt as alive as meeting for the first time.

Instead, there is a special friendship that comes from the ancient ancestors who were bound together.

But suddenly, an accident happened.

As Griffith was talking, his expression changed.

She seemed to be trying hard to suppress something, but she couldn't hold back the sting in her throat, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.

Nan Jing glanced at the chaotic aura leaking from her body when she vomited blood just now, frowned and said, "Your injury is very serious."

Griffith looked unconcerned and said, "Well, it's old. It's not a big problem."

Unbeknownst to others, the injuries on her body were not just from the previous siege.

There are also old injuries from before.

Nanjing has always been a part-time doctor, so she doesn’t think this problem is a big deal. She said bluntly: "But... I sensed a very chaotic erosion of high order laws in your body. Although you are now relying on your strong strength to suppress your injuries, if If it’s not taken care of, it will definitely get worse, especially if it can’t be injured anymore.”

Griffith was slightly surprised when he heard that Nan Jing could see the true condition of his injury at a glance, and then smiled: "As expected of Priest Nan. I have seen many doctors for my injury, and many people did not even understand the extent of my injury. .”

As she spoke, she raised her eyebrows, glanced at Ivan who was sleeping soundly in Ji Xun's pocket, and with a slightly helpless tone, explained: "I had a fight with the Pope of the Holy See, Paulalante A. Russell. Stay. "Order" is also a high-level law. It is difficult to completely solve this kind of injury except to use time. "

The last time she snatched Ivan away, she didn't escape so lightly.

Instead, he was chased by seven or eight top experts, including the Holy See Pope, for more than half a month.

Although he finally escaped, he was seriously injured.

Ji Xun also looked solemn as he listened.

Only then did he realize that the leader of the Dragon Rebel Army still had such a serious old injury.

Griffith didn't care at all, but said: "But that guy's situation is not better than mine. Otherwise, he wouldn't be hiding in the Holy See headquarters recently and afraid to go out."

"."

When Ji Xun heard this, he guessed a lot.

Griffith was injured secretly, and few people within the Dragon Rebel Army probably knew about it.

After all, he is the leader, and speaking out about unsolvable problems has no meaning other than affecting morale.

The fact that she was surrounded and killed before was not just an accidental encounter, it was most likely a deliberate pursuit by the Holy See.

If this hidden injury could be treated, of course it would have been resolved long ago.

Obviously, it can't.

Everyone present can think of it.

Nan Jing wanted to help, but her current ability was unable to deal with such a high-level law injury. "Sorry, I. I can't solve it either."

Griffith said with relief: "It's no problem at the moment."

But as soon as she said these words, Chujiu, who had never spoken before, spoke up: "Chief Griffith, if you don't mind, I have some holy water here, which should be able to heal your injuries."

As she spoke, she took out a silver cup filled with overflowing holy water.

"The Holy Grail of Sismark?"

Griffith's eyes froze as he thought.

She had received information before and knew that these four sacred weapons of royal power were in the hands of Ji Xun's friends.

But what surprised her was that Chujiu, with the Holy Grail in hand, was exuding an indescribable imperial aura!

Supreme majesty, yet also benevolent and kind.

Even though Griffith is now at the ninth level, he is still inexplicably impressed by this momentum.

She knew that most of this power came from the Holy Grail, the holy instrument of royal power.

But it can activate the power of the holy weapon of royal power, which means that the holder's royal power destiny has been completed and has been recognized by the Holy Grail!

Thinking too much at the moment, Griffith was in a rare daze.

When she came back to her senses, she saw that the silver-haired Chujiu had handed the Holy Grail in the air.

Looking at the still water in the crystal cup, her eyes flashed with a hint of complexity.

Of course she knew about the water of the Holy Grail of Sismark that was said to be able to heal all injuries and remove negative conditions.

This holy water is one of the few things in the world that can heal her current injuries.

I didn't expect to be so lucky, right in front of me?

Griffith looked again, and there was only purity in the silver-haired girl's eyes.

There is no other motive for handing over the Holy Grail.

Only sincerity.

Chujiu saw that the other party did not answer, and explained one more sentence: "The fact that I can be recognized by the Holy Grail and condense these holy water is also directly related to the [Dynasty Conferral Secret Code] that your organization sent a few days ago."

He has a cold temperament and is not tactful in his speech.

But the meaning was expressed.

Ji Xun looked on, not surprised that Chujiu would do such a thing.

He also knew that his friend didn't want to send the holy water for any reason, but just because he didn't want to owe a favor.

Just like when we first met in the 407 space, that girl never likes to owe others favors.

If you owe something, you will definitely pay it back.

Besides, holy water is renewable.

Although I don’t know how long it will take to condense a cup, but now that the royal power and destiny of Chujiu have been condensed, there will definitely be more in the future.

Moreover, there must be some other relics containing the fate of the dynasty in these ruins.

"Your Highness Princess, just call me by my name."

Griffith certainly understands everything.

Her crystal eyes reflected the crystal waves in the Holy Grail, as if she was thinking about something.

It seems as if some important historical moment is taking place.

For a moment, it seemed as if time had paused for two breaths.

Suddenly, the seriousness on Griffith's face dropped.

She stood up with a smile, performed an ancient court ceremony again, and happily took the Holy Grail: "Thank you, Your Highness, Princess."

Her current state can be seen clearly by some people at a glance.

Chujiu frowned slightly, still not comfortable with this title, but it didn't seem so strange anymore.

Ji Xun watched from the side.

Suddenly I had a very strange feeling.

It seemed as if some illusory pictures appeared in front of my eyes.

History and reality overlap.

It seemed that such a scene had been staged in the Talon Palace three thousand years ago.

But at that time, it was King Augustus and some other important ministers.

Now it was Chujiu and Griffith.

Griffith did not hesitate, took the holy cup and drank the holy water in one gulp.

In an instant, a holy silver light surged from her body.

At the same time, the paleness and fatigue on that beautiful face disappeared instantly.

Even some hidden injuries that had accumulated for many years were swept away.

Ji Xun had experienced this feeling before, and knew that it was the healing power of the holy water that dealt with the stubborn illness and hidden injuries.

In just a blink of an eye, Griffith's whole person was "refreshed", and her crystal eyes were shining.

She was already beautiful, and at this moment it was more like adding a layer of filter, beautiful and radiant.

Yes!

The whole person was glowing!

Griffith herself also felt the new state of her body.

She had never felt so good before.

This holy water not only healed the hidden injuries, but also eliminated some of the hidden dangers left by her extraordinary advancement over the years.

At this moment, Griffith felt a sense of relief that she had never felt before.

And the powerful and surging extraordinary power in her body!

Ji Xun, Chu Jiu and Nan Jing also looked at the glowing Griffith in front of them, and their eyes were all stagnant.

They vaguely felt how strong a ninth-level card master in his prime was.

However, the strange image was submerged in an instant, and Griffith restrained the overflowing extraordinary light.

She looked at Chu Jiu, then looked at Ji Xun and Nan Jing, and this top powerhouse said sincerely: "Thank you."

Some of the fortunes that she had once asked the blind prophet to divine, at this moment, she seemed to see the fulfillment.

This thank you was meaningful.

Ji Xun smiled and shook his head, not thinking it was his own credit.

Ji Xun also received a lot of help from the Rebel Dragon Army before, which was at most a favor.

There was nothing to be hypocritical about.

Instead, he thought of something else in his mind.

Griffith was a little passive in his previous injured state, but now his injury has suddenly healed, and the current situation has changed again.

The leader of the Rebel Dragon Army obviously thought the same as him.

We can talk about thanking him later.

But at present, we can definitely use this information gap to make a big move!

Griffith's eyes flashed with wisdom, and he said: "Those guys in the Holy See probably didn't expect that my injuries are healed now."
