Chapter 437 How Outrageous Is This Guy?

"Donna, is it possible that we are under an illusion? Why did I see the captain hugging a man?"

"Why are you pinching me? Why are you pinching yourself! Idiot Rogge!"

"Isn't this the 'friend' the captain was talking about?"

"."

The members of the New World Mechanical Team looked at the scene in front of them and rubbed their eyes in unison, thinking that they were under an illusion.

However, after watching for a while, the brain finally believed what the eyes saw: Captain Dong Qi really embraced a man passionately!

And judging from the intimate expression, the two of them are not generally close.

what's the situation?

Seven pairs of eyes stared directly at the two of them, and no one said anything.

But all seven faces had the same astonished expression.

The breeze blew, and the sea of ​​grass was very quiet, with only the sound of rustling grass waves.

After the longing for each other after a long separation reached its climax at the moment of embracing each other, his sanity gradually returned.

Just now, Dong Qi only had Ji Xun in his eyes.

Now, she saw the curious faces of her friends, staring at her intensely.

Dong Qi suddenly remembered something, and without any awkwardness at all, he introduced to everyone: "Let me introduce to everyone, this is Ji Xun."

With that, she introduced her friends to Ji Xun: "Ji Xun, these are the members of our New World Mechanical Group, Gibb, Rock, Dina, and Donna."

One side is the closest friend, and the other side is a fighting partner.

Dong Qi introduced them one by one carefully.

Both parties nodded, indicating they knew each other.

Some people have also paid attention to Donghuang's wanted notices and recognized Ji Xun as an "S-class wanted criminal" who is still on the wanted list.

However, just because they recognized him, everyone became more suspicious.

The captain said before that he is a very powerful friend. Is this him?

They didn't question the captain's words.

But that's just the current situation. Unless the Valkyrie from the Revolutionary Army comes, they really can't think of anyone who can save them from the crisis.

Although the seven young mechanics said nothing, they could not hide the sadness in their eyes.

No reinforcements were seen, and there was still one last glimmer of hope;

But when I really saw people coming, it seemed like all my illusions were shattered.

If I remember correctly, is this person on the wanted list at level 4 or level 5?

In the current situation, ordinary seventh-level card masters would not be able to solve the problem.

What's the use of this person coming?

Compared to the complicated thoughts of his companions, Dong Qi didn't have any urgency at all.

Because she knew her old friend's character very well, and if he said "it doesn't matter", then it must be no problem.

However, under the current situation, Dong Qi was also very curious about Ji Xun's plans.

She looked at Ji Xun expectantly and asked directly: "Have you advanced again?"

In fact, what she wanted to ask was: Have you advanced to the eighth level?

From this Miss Qiqi's point of view, she herself didn't believe that Ji Xun could advance to the eighth level, so she didn't dare to ask directly.

But what if.?

However, the fact is that the last time the two met, it was level five, and now it is level six, which is indeed an advanced level.

Ji Xun looked at the look of great expectation in Dong Qi's eyes, smiled and shook his head: "My strength has improved a bit. But it's not as exaggerated as you think."

As he said that, he knew what the other party wanted to ask, so he simply added: "At least, it can't beat the Titan armor."

The combat capability of the Titan Armor is aimed at the eighth-level card master. Because of the special characteristics of the machine, it does not have the same shortcomings as humans, so it can perform well even in front of the ninth level.

This is the top combat power designed by the Talon Dynasty to deal with changing the war situation. How can it be so easy to deal with.

Not to mention Ji Xun's current situation, even if he is at the seventh level, normal means cannot even hope to get benefits in front of this pinnacle work of Talon's machinery.

Hearing this, Dong Qi was also stunned: "Huh?"

What should I do if I can’t beat him?

Before the moment of panic emerged in her heart, she looked at the calm face as always, and she guessed in her heart: "Could there be someone else coming?"

But after looking at it, it seemed like there wasn't.

But the bulge in his pocket seemed to be that of Ivan who was sleeping soundly.

Ji Xun smiled and shook his head, and said meaningfully: "You don't have to be able to solve the problem."

Dong Qi was completely puzzled: "Huh?"

If you can't win, how can you solve the problem?

Ji Xun didn't explain much and pondered for a moment: "This."

He now also somewhat understands why he used to feel that when chatting with people like Jia Yu who were good at strategy, he always felt that the other party was half-talking.

In fact, it’s not a pretense.

Rather, some plans are completely deduced and can be understood by oneself, but when told to others, it may require too much explanation.

Moreover, the line of deduction does not necessarily lead to one outcome, but to many possibilities.

He can explain, but the listener may not understand.

Still troublesome.

Ji Xun thought about it, looked at Dong Qi, and said, "Qiqi, you just need to know that if you really need reinforcements, they can be found."

This time he came to Donghuang to establish a teleportation array.

Now Griffith is in the headquarters of the Old Continent Chain Alliance Army, and he can be summoned by using the space scroll.

If that kind of master comes over, even a Titan armor can handle it.

But the leader of the Rebel Dragon Army is not a thug. He can be summoned whenever you say.

That favor is more valuable than a mecha.

Ji Xun will definitely not trouble others until the problem is truly unsolvable.

Dong Qi blinked after listening to Ji Xun's words.

Although she didn't understand it very well, since the other party said it, she completely believed it.

She knew Ji Xun's methods and also knew that he had a close relationship with the Southern Continent's Dragon Rebel Army, so she thought the "reinforcements" referred to the masters there.

That's really not convenient to elaborate on.

Ji Xun didn't say anything, and Dong Qi was sensible enough not to ask.

However, the seven team members on the side frowned more and more.

These young mechanics knew almost nothing about the intelligence outside the Eastern Wasteland, and it was difficult for them to understand where Ji Xunrong's confidence came from.

Dong Qi also knows that his partners are worried, and now they need something practical to boost morale.

She asked again: "Ji Xun, what should we do now? Now we have been targeted. If we can't deal with the Titan mecha, we may not be able to go anywhere."

Ji Xun was not surprised at all.

In fact, from the moment they met, I had already guessed everything about their immigration situation.

He asked back: "Why do you think the people from Oran Royal Court didn't kill you?"

Dong Qi said directly: "For the intact armor, for the experimental equipment and data we carry, and for finding the location of the base."

Ji Xun's mouth still curled slightly as he listened, "So, what do you think is the best way for them to get these?"

Of course Dong Qi had already thought about this problem and said directly: "Capture us alive."

Ji Xun nodded, still looking at her inquiringly, as if asking: What next?

The people on the sidelines were confused as they listened. Isn’t it true that everyone can think of these questions? What’s there to ask?

Dong Qi understood what he meant instantly, and then said: "You want to say...how can we be captured alive?"

Ji Xun nodded: "Yes."

"."

Dong Qi frowned immediately when he thought of this.

It's not like she hasn't thought about it.

But I have thought about this journey countless times.

They can die in battle, but no matter what, they cannot be captured alive.

However, just when she was about to speak out her thoughts, she knew that Ji Xun would definitely be able to think of such a simple question.

There must be a deeper meaning in this question.

So Dong Qi didn't respond in a hurry, but fell into deep thought.

Ji Xun didn't seem to be in a hurry to tell him the answer.

Danger is always the best way to grow.

He can easily help solve problems, but not every danger in the future will help him.

He could see that there was a very sophisticated guy among the pursuers of Oran Palace.

It seems that he should be a counselor who is very experienced in marching and fighting.

Dong Qi now is no longer the gangster lady she used to be.

This kind of strategic confrontation is a rare experience for a qualified commander.

But after thinking for a moment, Dong Qi still didn't expect it and could only ask: "So, Ji Xun, what do you mean?"

Being in the middle of a game, it is sometimes difficult to see through it. Ji Xun also reminded some key words at the right time: "Spiritual illusion, or some mysterious method."

"this"

Dong Qiyi's expression instantly became more serious upon hearing this.

When she thought about it, it was indeed true.

If you want to capture them alive, the best way is not to capture them alive in a head-on battle, because that is simply impossible.

The Hunter's Armor is immune to almost all known illusions.

So we can only wait until they are unprepared, such as camping now to rest, and use mysterious spells to directly control their bodies.

But they had thought about this idea before.

Dong Qi didn't know what Ji Xun saw, and tried hard to think of what he had overlooked.

However, the young friends on the side were a little helpless.

They listened to the entire conversation between the two, but were not as able to follow Ji Xun's thoughts as Dong Qi was.

After watching his captain think about such a simple question for a long time, the young man named Rock finally couldn't help but speak, "Sir, I don't question your intention. But you may not be too concerned about the mechanical armor we wear. Understood. This 'Hunter Armor' is not any kind of mechanical device on the market. It is designed to take into account almost any possibility in combat, including mental spell impact."

He thought that Ji Xun didn't know the characteristics of the armor, so he asked such a question.

Then he continued to explain: "The main material of the helmet of the Hunter God War Armor is [Abyss Tarnish Copper], which is a high-grade metal that can shield mental pollution. What's more, there are complex protective spells inside the war armor that are enough to resist any mental illusions. and mysterious spells. Moreover, the mecha has a self-destruction device. Once we cannot escape, we will activate the self-destruction mode, so there is no way we will be captured alive on the battlefield."

When he said this, the young man's face showed inexplicable pride and courage.

Although the other six young mechanics did not speak, they obviously meant the same thing.

But what they don't know is.

Ji Xun not only knew the detailed parameters of the Mecha-Hunter Armor, but even the fact that the armor could be manufactured was the blueprint that he and Dong Qi had gone to grab.

Dong Qi looked at his partner and wanted to remind him: "Luo Ke, don't"

However, Ji Xun interrupted her and agreed with his statement: "Well, you are right."

This statement made others even more suspicious.

But he suddenly changed the topic and asked everyone at the same time: "What if it's not in battle? You don't always wear the armor on your body, right?"

As soon as this question came up, every member of the team showed an expression of "Oh, so this guy really doesn't understand technology."

Only Dong Qi was still thinking.

Although Rock felt that this reinforcement was not very reliable, because he was the captain's friend, he still patiently explained: "Sir, this problem is almost impossible. Our mechas carry equipment such as [Haiges Life Detector], [Fifth Generation Energy Fluctuation Detector], and [High-Sensitivity Mechanical Signal Capture]. These devices are a bit troublesome to explain, but no matter what, we can ensure that as long as there is any target approaching us, we will find it at the first time."

While explaining, he also pointed to the precision instruments with light screens on the armor, and added: "Just like you just came over, we also found it in advance."

Rock said what all his teammates wanted to say.

In front of this group of young men who can be said to be mechanical geniuses, talking about machinery, their eyes instantly became hot.

However, as soon as the voice came out, they looked at Ji Xun's still smiling expression and realized that something seemed strange.

Oh, I almost forgot.

How did this guy move so fast just now?

Even faster than the Hunter God Mecha!

Ji Xun listened to Rock's explanation patiently.

But these young mechanics didn't know that he knew the devices equipped on the Huntsman Armor better than they did.

He even copied those drawings himself.

He could remember every data of the equipment clearly.

No one spoke after this.

The quiet air had an indescribable awkward atmosphere.

Dong Qi also knew that he had a photographic memory, and this attitude made her feel that they had overlooked something.

Miss Qiqi's straightforward personality was not good at those conspiracies.

But now that she is the commander of the New World Group, she always feels that she has the responsibility to think about these tactics.

But it is not her strong point after all.

Dong Qi felt that she had considered everything she could think about.

She simply didn't think about it anymore. She instantly relaxed her brows and hugged Ji Xun's arm, with an expression that she didn't want to think about it anymore: "Hey, hey, hey, so, what is it? Tell me, tell me quickly"

The familiar Miss Qiqi is back again.

This scene, looking at the friends around, was stunned again.

Ji Xun felt the soft and tender touch on his chest and said helplessly: "Hunters often deal with fierce prey. The best way is not to deal with it head-on, but to use traps."

Mechanics have many advantages.

But the disadvantages are very obvious. Their bodies are almost the weakest in the fifty-two sequences.

They rely too much on mechanical equipment, so the crisis premonition ability that other card masters have is almost zero for mechanics.

The equipment is fine, and what they said is also fine.

But the problem is that there is a person who is good at layout among the enemies.

As soon as these words came out, Dong Qi and the team members immediately felt like they were awakened from a dream: "Trap?"

Yes!

This metaphor fits their current situation very well. In the eyes of those people in the Orlan Royal Court, aren't they dangerous prey?

But how to set traps?

At this time, Ji Xun didn't beat around the bush. His thoughts had given them enough guidance, so he said directly: "Did you come all the way from the northeast before?"

Dong Qi blinked and asked back: "How do you know?"

She thought about it and thought that she shouldn't have asked this question just now?

Ji Xun had been wandering around here for a whole day, and of course he found the traces left by the mecha action.

And because he had deduced the purpose of the Orlan royal family to capture them alive before he saw them, he also deliberately observed more details.

As long as the purpose, the intelligence of both sides and the environment can be linked together, Ji Xun can certainly think of the plan that the enemy can think of.

He said directly: "The random route you think is actually "driven" by someone. It's like a hunter driving prey to a preset trap. It's just that the enemy is very clever, and you may not realize it."

Hearing this, Dong Qi was struck by lightning.

She thought that Ji Xun had guessed the direction they came from just now, so couldn't the enemy guess it too?

Although she didn't know how they did it, the facts were in front of her.

The seven teammates on the side still didn't understand.

Ji Xun broke their last fantasy and said directly: "There is a canyon to the south of this sea of ​​grass, which is very suitable for hiding. You can't stay in the same place for too long, so next time you change camps, you will most likely enter the canyon. Then, you will most likely encounter a trap that has been preset. I guess it's the Silver Moon Illusion."

Everyone understood after hearing this.

The instrument can indeed sense nearby enemies.

But what if there are no enemies nearby?

As long as the trap is preset, they will run into it and get caught without knowing it.

Thinking of this, Dong Qi and his men all felt cold on their backs.

They realized that the conspiracy hidden under the surface of the enemy was so clever!

Ji Xun said these words lightly, and for a moment, the young mechanics who had looked down on him just now looked at him differently.

They all listened to the conversation between the two. The captain hadn't said anything yet, but this man had guessed everything.

Not only the way they came, but also the canyon, they had already discussed and determined to go next!

This feeling is very absurd.

As if

As if they were actors on a stage, everything they did was performed according to a predetermined script.

Everything was completely under the control of others.

At this moment, the backs of the young mechanics felt cold, and their eyes became more and more unbelievable.

The enemy's layout was clear, and the dark clouds that shrouded everyone's hearts were swept away in an instant.

The suffocating pressure seemed to disappear.

The captain's friend seemed to be really powerful.

The members of this new world mechanical group all felt powerful at this moment.

Ji Xun looked at those pairs of amazed and admiring eyes and smiled and shook his head.

It seemed that he remembered the feeling of seeing Jia Yu or Nan Jing's mother, those masters, layout and game.

It turned out that he had become very powerful without realizing it.

Those layouts that seemed profound and difficult to understand to others were easily done.

Ji Xun thought a lot in his mind, and his eyes were slightly distracted.

Dong Qi pursed his lips, but he was not as polite as others. He just hugged him intimately and muttered: "Sure enough, you can think of everything."

Although he was also surprised, this feeling was very familiar, just like before.

She liked this feeling.

Ji Xun looked at Dong Qi and said, "Qi Qi, you rely too much on machines, and thus lose some of the judgment you should have."

Dong Qi pursed his lips and said, "I know."

Although his tone was a complaint, he remembered it in his heart.

After thinking for a while, Dong Qi asked, "But Ji Xun, what should we do next?"

The other team members also cast curious eyes.

This time there was no doubt, only expectation.

Now that they knew that the enemy had set a trap to drive them away, they thought that the canyon was of course not allowed to go.

But he couldn't think of a better response.

The dilemma that should have been there didn't even change at all.

However, Ji Xun's next words made everyone drop their jaws.

He said casually, "Of course we will continue to go."

"Ah?"

Dong Qi was puzzled and said, "But. We are going, aren't we trapped by the enemy?"

Ji Xun also said casually, "Yes. Without bait, the enemy won't fall into the trap."

"."

When Dong Qi heard this, the familiar feeling came back.

Although she was not convinced by being used as a "bait", she had to admit that Ji Xun's plan was always correct.

Ji Xun did not hide it and said bluntly: "If you don't completely get rid of the pursuers. You can't just wander around in the wilderness all the time, right? My idea is that you should pretend that you know nothing, go to the canyon when you should, and get caught when you should."

Dong Qi: "."

Everyone: "."

Everyone was confused when Ji Xun said this.

So, knowing that it was a trap, we still hit our heads?

Is this guy serious?

Ji Xun knew that his thinking was a little out of line.

The truly brilliant layout is not to break it, but to go with the flow.

He didn't know how to explain it, and said the plan that sounded like a fairy tale to others: "Well, then I will try to completely get rid of the pursuers. Only in this way can you really get away."

Before he finished speaking, the young mechanics' eyes twitched, obviously thinking that this plan was terrible.

Dong Qi's eyes turned, and the tacit understanding between the two made her understand a lot.

She knew that if Ji Xun said that, he must have the strength to solve it.

But she was still afraid that the other party didn't know the situation, so she said: "But, even if we don't count the Titan Armor, there is also a seventh-level Moon God Guard among the pursuers. It is the lieutenant general of the Second Legion of the Federation, "Dream Weaver" Hera."

"Newly promoted to the seventh level? No problem"

Ji Xun smiled indifferently.

How could he not have deduced the enemy's strength if he could come up with this plan.

Except for special existences like the Moon Goddess Arachne, the highest local combat power in the East Wilderness should only be the seventh level at present.

The Titan Armor is already a high-end configuration, and the others are just a little bit of a by-product.

And the other party must have considered capturing alive a long time ago, so the people sent are also good at mental spells.

"Dream Weaver" Hera, a former senior staff officer of the Federation, has the rank of lieutenant general and is good at mental secrets.

Ji Xun remembers every high-level card master in the East Wilderness who has an official record.

When he heard this name, it almost completely matched his previous speculation.

Dong Qi looked at Ji Xun so confident, and his eyes were full of surprise: "Can you deal with the seventh level?"

Others would not believe it, but she believed Ji Xun's words.

Ji Xun shrugged noncommittally, "It's hard to say about other seventh levels, but this kind of spiritual system can be tried."

Dong Qi was shocked to the point of being unable to describe when he heard this casual admission. How strong is this guy now?

However, the seventh level is not the biggest problem, they can even kill it.

The most critical thing is the Titan Armor.

Thinking of this, Dong Qi frowned and asked: "But what about the Titan Armor? I can contain it for a while. But it will be defeated after a long time. After all, the gap between mechanical armors is too big."

This question is really hard for Ji Xun to explain. After thinking about it, he said meaningfully: "If that guy is really well-informed, he will probably run away when he sees me."

Will the Titan run away?

After saying this, Dong Qi and the young mechanics froze their expressions on their faces again.

At this moment, everyone had the same thought in their mind, and they all thought: How could this guy say such outrageous words in such a calm tone!
