Cataclysm King

The news of the assassination of the Holy See Pope was deliberately blocked, and few people know about it.

And this information is useless to ordinary people.

But there is someone who is very interested in this information.

Catalina looked at Ji Xun's deep eyes and the strange expression between his eyebrows, and asked curiously: "What did you think of?"

"This matter may involve a lot."

Ji Xun frowned slightly, and seemed to have no idea how to express his speculations.

His current ability of "I am the world" will make him unconsciously deduce any news he hears.

Deducing the motive from the event itself, and then combining the background of related characters to deduce the cause and effect of the whole event.

There are not many people who can use the [Olympus Holy Sword]. Ji Xun thinks it is most likely Xie Guozhong.

And if it is really his old friend, let alone how he did it, this "motive" is very puzzling.

Xie Guozhong is upright and full of justice.

Why did he want to assassinate the Pope?

The only reasonable explanation that Ji Xun could think of might be related to Old Man Xu.

According to the information he had learned before, if the "Mad King" Alduin had not been assassinated three thousand years ago, those Outer God rebels might not have been able to easily capture the imperial city of Behemoth.

Xie Guozhong's situation is extremely similar.

Ji Xun also thought of the situation in which the "Illuminati Hermitage" participated in the Battle of Orlan's Collapse more than two hundred years ago.

It seems that in the shadow of history, there are always some "historical correctors" walking in the dark, influencing the development of civilization.

After deducing to this point, Ji Xun seemed to have some fate lines connected in his mind.

Some of the historical accidents that ordinary people think are accidents may be the inevitable layout of some people with ulterior motives.

Thinking about it this way, even Xie Guozhong's ability to fuse the [jar] and get the [Olympus Holy Sword], these seemingly accidental changes may not be real accidents.

It may be the intervention of some mysterious forces.

Under certain conditions, things will inevitably happen.

Ji Xun's thoughts suddenly came to the major events that had happened in the past.

Mushroom-headed Jia Yu's teacher, former light chaser Gu Ni, was killed, and Jia Yu disguised himself to lurk in the X Bureau; later, Xie Guozhong went to the X Bureau headquarters to investigate, and was used by the Scarlet Cult; later, the Scarlet Cult was wiped out in a battle in the Shenxu Treasure House, and could only use Xie Guozhong to bring out the [jar]

When this series of events happened, it seemed to be accidental under the circumstances at the time.

But now, if we follow this causal line backwards, we will find that this kind of event is completely traceable.

Even if the means are clever enough and intervene from the beginning, this matter may be a "man-made event".

It sounds a bit incredible.

But the fact is that this is the ability that top extraordinary people can have.

Before Ji Xun went to the other-dimensional space in "Thousands of Troops Besieged the City" and saw the light chaser Farrow three thousand years ago, and the high priest Nan Shenyu, he did not dare to believe that someone's ability to lay out would be exaggerated enough to affect the future of the uncivilized thousands of years later.

And Old Man Xu is even more of an "immortal".

He must have some means that non-humans can think of.

The corrector of history, the supervisor of civilization, or something else.

Ji Xun didn't know how to describe it.

But whether it was the assassination of the Mad King of Three Thousand Years or the assassination of the Pope now, Ji Xun felt that there was the shadow of this person.

He was immortal in the years, so he had enough time to plan the results he wanted.

As for why the Pope was assassinated this time, from the current situation, Ji Xun still couldn't understand it. He just looked at the recent actions of the South Continent to enter the Old Continent, and vaguely guessed that it might be another key civilization turning point.

It doesn't matter whether it is killed or not. What's important is that once the blood bar of the god is revealed, it is no longer a god.

The Holy See of the Dragon, which is superior to humans in the South Continent, may have a big change.

"So, it may be related to a senior I know."

Ji Xun felt that he might have glimpsed the truth of the incident.

However, the cause and effect involved in Old Man Xu is very special, and he doesn't think that everyone can have the fate to know the role he played in history.

Ji Xun selected some of the situations he deduced that others could understand and tactfully explained them.

But even though he said it very simply, Dong Qi and Catalina beside him were stunned.

I thought it was an accidental assassination, but I didn't expect it to involve so many people.

But Catalina also knew that Old Man Xu was special. She heard that Ji Xun deliberately avoided certain questions, and didn't ask in detail, just said: "So, about these assassinations, what preparations should we make?"

"I don't know either"

Ji Xun smiled and shook his head.

It's easy to review and reverse the incident after it happens.

But it's very difficult in the incident.

It's like when playing chess, it seems that there are countless ways of thinking about the two sides of the game.

But after reviewing, it is found that there is only one choice of move.

Ji Xun, who is still in the chess game, has deduced many possibilities, but in his eyes, these are still countless uncertain futures.

It is this uncertainty that makes him feel more and more looking forward to the future.

Dong Qi was surprised and asked, "You don't know?"

Katerina was also slightly surprised, thinking that he should at least be able to deduce something.

Because this guy is always like this.

Ji Xun and two pairs of eyes, shrugged helplessly, and laughed at himself: "My realm is far from being able to peek into the layout of that level. Do what we should do, and it's good to do what we can."

As for being a chess piece?

He never thought it was a bad thing.

The fate line is like the grids on the chessboard, and everyone is a chess piece.

Only when you recognize yourself as a chess piece on the chessboard, you are qualified to peek at the chess player, and you have the possibility of walking out of the fate line.

This is also what the light chaser Faro once said, this is the only way for human personality to usurp.

Now being able to peek at some of the grids on the chessboard is already a magical experience.

As he said, Ji Xun thought of something and added: "But I did deduce something interesting. The Pope is in charge of the [Royal Treasure Orb] that represents order. Now he has been assassinated, which means that the original order is in chaos."

This is a bit confusing, and the two women looked at him with question marks on their faces.

Catalina felt that this was very meaningful, but she couldn't figure it out, so she asked, "What does it mean?"

"."

Ji Xun shrugged, indicating that he didn't know either.

He thought of another possibility that Xie Guozhong assassinated the Pope, that is, he himself was a card master of the Order Path [6 of Diamonds-Outlaw].

As for the others, it's hard to say now.

Ji Xun didn't want to say more on this issue, so he asked, "By the way, didn't you say there was another piece of news?"

After hearing this, Catalina's thoughts came back to her senses and said, "There is another legend."

This legend obviously has a great impact. She paused and said, "It is said that the relics of Emperor Lanlingster appeared in the southern continent."

"The relics of the emperor?"

Ji Xun's expression was stern when he heard it.

Because he knew the exact news that Emperor Lanlingster fell in the adventure of exploring the abyss rift in the southern continent.

In other words, it is possible that the relics of the emperor appeared in the southern continent.

Catalina nodded and said, "Yes. It is said that the set of artifacts exclusive to the emperor [Curse God Cards] has appeared in the world, and an adventurer from the southern continent got it in the wild, which caused a huge wave."

"."

Ji Xun frowned instantly when he heard it.

He had heard of [Curse God Cards]. It was a legendary artifact card that could engrave all spells.

It was a battle card and also a spell book.

It is said that the set of cards engraved all the spells collected by Emperor Lanlingster.

This is the treasure that all card masters dream of.

However, the artifact disappeared with Emperor Lanlingster, so everything is a legend.

Catalina did not get much information, and they were all unconfirmed rumors.

The general content was that some Curse God Cards appeared, and then a certain adventurer's strength skyrocketed, and because of the treasure, some murders and robberies were caused.

The three chatted for a while, but they didn't make any sense.

This kind of thing is difficult to confirm without going to the southern continent to find the real thing in person.

After all, they are both in the [JOKER] sequence, and Ji Xun also has a strong interest in the relics of the Great Emperor.

Besides, he originally planned to go to the southern continent.

After all, it takes a lot of perception to comprehend the realm of all things, and the Royal Card Master Academy of Arel has the richest collection of card master civilization.

Now it seems that there is even more reason to go there as soon as possible.

Catalina and Dong Qi both knew his plan and chatted for a while.

Either in adventure or in practice, this is the Ji Xun they know, and the two women don’t feel strange.

The business was almost finished, and Catalina suddenly thought of something and asked: "By the way, Ji Xun, how are you doing recently?"

When Ji Xun heard her words and looked at the smile in her crystal eyes, he knew that she was asking about the "witch pollution" issue.

He replied calmly, "It's still ideal. I haven't used [Dark Magic] recently, and the pollution has been suppressed."

Katerina listened to this and glanced at Dong Qi next to her. She smiled and said, "Oh, that's good."

As she spoke, she took out a few bottles of wine from her storage ring and placed them on the table. "By the way, Aragorn and Alice came again before. They heard about your situation and asked me to bring these wines to you."

Ji Xun looked at the amber wine and recognized it as the [Heberlin Dragon Root Wine] he drank last time.

Of course he knew what Aragorn meant by sending this wine.

This is a very precious secret wine.

It can nourish the body and suppress the witch's distortion to a certain extent.

But this wine needs someone to cooperate, right?

Ji Xun looked at the bottle and glanced at Katarina again.

The two looked at each other for a moment, and he saw the teasing flashing in those crystal eyes.

The charm in her eyes seemed to be suggesting: How about I help you suppress it?

This young lady from the Lionheart family was born in a top noble family. She was impeccably reserved and ladylike in front of anyone.

But for Ji Xun, who had an intimate relationship with her, she would not be like that. She was more like a burning rose.

Ji Xun always felt that the atmosphere was a bit subtle, so he just nodded: "Yeah."

Catalina looked at Ji Xun's cowardly expression and found it interesting. She chuckled and reminded him: "There are only a few bottles of this wine left. It was Miss Alice who got it with great difficulty. She even brought the recipe. She said that other ingredients were fine, but the main ingredient needed for this wine is the material extracted from the pure-blooded dragon, which is not easy to find."

Ji Xun had known for a long time that this wine was special.

However, Dong Qi on the side was very curious. After hearing the two say that this wine was so special that it even needed dragon materials, she asked curiously, "Miss Carter, what kind of wine is this?"

She and Catalina had already talked a lot just now, and they were not unfamiliar with each other.

As she asked, she picked up the bottle and looked at it curiously.

This dragon root wine was brewed with countless secret medicines. Even if the bottle cap was not opened, the smell of the wine overflowing made people feel happy.

Dong Qi couldn't help but exclaimed, "Wow, this wine smells so good."

This wine seemed to have a kind of magic to people, which made people's body and mind eager to taste it.

She was not someone who would hide her thoughts, and since she was not an outsider, she asked directly, "Can I drink this wine?"

Katrina wanted to explain when she heard this, but thinking about their relationship, there was no need, so she said directly, "Of course."

She even unscrewed the bottle cap and poured half a cup for Dong Qi, "This is [Heberlin Dragon Root Wine], a rare tonic secret wine."

The amber wine was poured into the cup, and the rich and heavy aroma immediately filled the whole room.

Dong Qi took a sip from the wine glass, and immediately brightened up, and said in surprise, "Wow! Such a strong wine aroma! This is the richest wine I have ever drunk, it is like the legendary rainbow soda"

Ji Xun had drunk it before, so of course he knew that this wine list was definitely the best in terms of taste.

Dong Qi then remembered something: "By the way, Miss Carter, what did you call this wine?"

Katerina repeated: "[Heberlin Dragon Root Wine]."

"Oh, so that's it."

Dong Qi understood what the name meant, but she didn't look embarrassed at all, only a little blush from the alcohol.

She held the cup, as if she felt a little embarrassed to enjoy the food alone, and asked the two: "How about we drink together?"

She and Ji Xun were used to being together. First, she really didn't mind any problems; second, no matter how precious something is, she felt that it had value only when she had friends to share it.

Just like Ji Xun gave her the Angel Robot Arm.

Isn't wine meant to be drunk?

When Ji Xun heard what she said, he knew that Miss Qiqi hadn't realized the power of this wine.

Oh, that's right, he also suffered the aftereffects at the beginning, and then he knew it.

It's okay to drink other wines in this situation, but it's not right to drink Dragon Root Wine.

Ji Xun didn't know how to persuade her.

However, she did not speak. Seeing Dong Qi toasting to her enthusiastically, Katharina hesitated for a moment and actually agreed: "Okay. Let's drink."

She glanced at him again, and seemed to find the embarrassment in Ji Xun's eyes more interesting.

There is no such scene, so it is not seen.

Katarina took Dong Qi's half-filled glass of wine with a smile, and raised her glass to clink glasses.

This lady from the Lionheart family didn't mind, so Ji Xun certainly wouldn't.

After clinking glasses, the three of them continued to drink.

It must be said that after drinking this [Heberlin Dragon Root Wine], everything else became bland.

And this wine seems to have magic, the more you drink, the more excited you get.

Ji Xun had tried it before, but he also felt that this kind of greedy feeling was wonderful.

The three of them drank and continued to chat about scattered topics, talking about business, talking about machinery, and some gossip about life.

Katarina is very talkative, she can always chat with people on any topic.

Just like that, before they knew it, a bottle of wine had been drunk.

Ji Xun and Katarina could hold on for a long time last time because they were both sixth-level card masters with high body resistance.

Although they would also feel the effect of the secret medicine for alcohol strength, their consciousness was completely fine.

However, Dong Qi, a mechanic, did not have such a strong body.

After drinking two cups, the effect of the medicine spread in her body, and her face was faintly flushed with a charming look.

However, after all, the magic secret technique "Deus ex Machina" also had a major increase in mental power, so her consciousness was clear, but her body's reaction was greater than Ji Xun and the others.

As a gangster lady, she had no scruples when speaking. She raised the cup and drank happily, and asked: "Miss Carter, why do I feel warm all over after drinking this wine~"

Katrina smiled and said: "Because of the nourishing effect of this secret wine."

Dong Qi said "oh", but didn't think it was wrong, and asked again: "Don't you feel hot?"

While talking, she took off her coat, revealing her upper body wearing only a sports vest.

She used to wear this in the apartment.

It was only because there were guests today that she wore a coat. Maybe it was because of the alcohol, or because she was familiar with it, there was no taboo, so she took it off directly.

Ji Xun was not surprised.

But because of the dragon root wine, there was an ambiguous atmosphere in the air.

Catalina looked at Dong Qi, who was wearing light clothes. Even though she was also a woman, she couldn't help but take a second look and praised: "Ms. Qiqi has a great figure~"

Dong Qi listened and responded without thinking: "How can it be. Miss Carter has a great figure. Last time in Honglou, I realized that you are the girl with the whitest skin I have ever seen"

As she said this, she seemed to remember something, "But then again, our first meeting was magical~"

Catalina listened to this and laughed: "Hahaha, it was indeed a bit unpleasant when we first met."

The experience in Hong Lou was something she would never forget. When talking about this topic, that experience instantly came to her mind.

While listening to the conversation between the two, Ji Xun also thought of something and glanced slightly.

Unconsciously, I recalled some of the beautiful scenes from back then.

There were only three of them in the apartment, and they didn't need to care about the eyes of others. When they talked about such a private topic, the atmosphere instantly became warm.

Almost at the same time, Catalina caught a glimpse of Ji Xun's eyes looking at her from the corner of her eye.

How could she not guess what this guy was thinking?

I have seen it many times, and this Lionheart lady has nothing to be embarrassed about.

She caught Ji Xun's gaze, her eyelashes flickered slightly with a hint of cunning, and her slightly open collar was lowered a little, allowing the deep spring light to be seen more clearly.

Ji Xun's eyes turned white and he knew he was being teased again, so he chuckled.

Catalina found it interesting and smiled charmingly.

People who can become friends more or less have some common traits.

This drinking session made Catalina and Dong Qi very familiar with each other.

The three of them drank like this for a while, and the more they talked, the better the atmosphere became.

As a result, Ji Xun and Catalina drank a lot, but Dong Qi was completely drunk.

Miss Qiqi's consciousness was still clear, and her body was a little limp. She didn't shy away from anything, so she leaned against Ji Xun's body intimately.

After all, he felt unwell. Dong Qi stood up unsteadily and said to the two of them, "Ah, it's so hot. Ji Xun, while you chat, I'll take a shower first."

With that said, she walked straight to the bathroom.

Usually the guest says, I'm going to take a shower, which is the end of the chat.

Although Catalina was interested in continuing to watch Ji Xun's little embarrassment, her upbringing allowed her to get up in time and said politely: "Qiqi, there is another negotiation tomorrow. I'll leave first. Let's drink together another day."

However, Dong Qi was not happy with this, and turned around and muttered: "Miss Carter, you are staying at my place tonight, where are you going?"

She knew about Katarina's relationship with Ji Xun and didn't mind.

Besides, she wouldn't mind if they were really friends.

And what's very subtle is that all the rooms in this apartment are connected.

The bathroom is not far away, blocked only by a few pieces of glass.

As usual, Dong Qi took off his vest as he spoke, and his unrestrained upper body was exposed to the light, swaying in a boundless spring.

Catalina, who watched this scene calmly from beginning to end, was slightly startled on her pretty face: "Ah this."

Originally, I didn't want to disturb him. We could choose another time to spend time with Ji Xun.

Before she could think of how to respond, Dong Qi had already stripped naked and was walking into the bathroom: "Don't leave. Let's drink some more after I finish washing!"

The tone was not questioning.

It's the "toughness" of being a friend.

Caterina heard it too.

Dong Qi's bathing was not a noble excuse to urge people to leave, but he really wanted her to stay.

She couldn't refuse and hesitated, already hearing the sound of rushing water in her ears.

Dong Qi is filling the bathtub with water.

Catalina couldn't walk, so she simply sat down.

Seeing Dong Qi holding those slender legs and beautiful back, she smiled vaguely and murmured: "Miss Qiqi looks great."

There were only two people at the table, so of course Ji Xun knew that these words were meant to make fun of him.

Catalina said, looked at Ji Xun again, and asked, "Really?"

Ji Xun didn't know why, but he heard a hint of provocation. He pondered for a moment and said, "Yeah. Everything is fine."

It seems that she wants to ask this?

"Hmph~"

Catalina heard a haughty snort.

Obviously I am not disappointed with this answer, nor do I feel good about it.

Without Dong Qi present, Catalina was like a queen on the sofa, her eyes unabashedly charming as delicate and thorny as roses.

After all, she drank a lot of dragon root wine, and the young lady from the Lionheart family also had a flirtatious look in her eyes, "Oh, I haven't seen you for a long time."

Ji Xun smiled as he listened.

I said this several times throughout the night, each time with a different meaning.

This time, he heard the direct teasing.

Catalina really found it interesting. She had never seen Ji Xun in such embarrassment again.

You clearly want to do something, but you have worries.

This is not visible at any time.

The charming smile on Catalina's face became more and more unabated.

However, before the two could chat more, suddenly in the bathroom, Dong Qi looked over and greeted warmly: "Miss Carter, you are not leaving tonight anyway, how about we take a bath together?"

As soon as these extremely bold words came out, Catalina's expression suddenly froze: "Huh???"

In all her life, she has never encountered such a situation.

She had been trained in aristocratic etiquette and had never said what she should do in such a situation.

The young lady from the Lionheart family, who remained calm in the face of thousands of troops, was really confused at this moment.

Take a bath together?

Although she is a girl, there are others here.

Ji Xun on the side looked at her sudden change of expression and found it interesting: Have you ever had this time too?

Catalina caught a glimpse of that look of gloating, which seemed to arouse the competitive spirit in her heart. The entanglement in her heart was drowned in a moment. She stood up, raised her chest proudly, glanced at Ji Xun, and then said towards the bathroom: "Okay."

Ji Xun: "???"

At this response, it was Ji's turn to be stunned.

She actually agreed?

Ji Xun really didn't expect that Katarina, a noble lady with pride in her bones, would agree to such an outrageous proposal.

However, Katarina was more generous than he thought.

Hearing Dong Qi's call, she felt hot and it was good to take a shower.

She stood up and walked towards the bathroom.

There was no cover in the room, and there was no dressing room.

Besides, Ji Xun had seen her naked body before.

So she didn't hesitate at all. Katarina followed Dong Qi's example and unbuttoned her shirt as she walked.

Then she took off her shirt and put it in the basket.

She reached her hand to her back and unbuttoned her underwear, and in a blink of an eye, she was naked.

While Ji Xun was staring at her, he saw Katarina standing naked at the door of the bathroom.

She didn't forget to glance back provocatively: How about it, does it look good?

The bathroom only had two transparent glass panels. Ji Xun was stunned as he looked at the two naked bodies in the bathroom.

Except in his dreams, Ji Xun had never had such an experience.

For a moment, the beautiful spring scenery was so attractive that he couldn't take his eyes off it.

At this time, an unexpected scene happened again.

Dong Qi in the bathroom called out again: "Ji Xun, do you want to take a bath together?"

It was a casual call.

Because they usually do this.

But now, the situation is different.

Because there are not just the two of them in the room.

There is also Catalina who has taken off all her clothes.
