Chapter 527: Ambush and Kill Forty Bandit Leaders, so Many Treasures

Ji Xun and the others left the Central Arena and arrived in Beicheng soon.

There is a high-end residential area here, and I have lived here before.

At the Maple Leaf Hotel, Ji Xun's clone has already booked a room.

Although the mysterious thief group "Forty Thieves" has been active outside the city, Ji Xun guessed that the base camp of this thief group is most likely in the city.

And it's very likely that it's near a noble manor, which is why it has never been found.

Now that there is no one in power in Djinn City, these rats that were originally active in the gutter have no restraint at all.

Ji Xun felt that those people would definitely take action in the city.

After all, the nights are long and there are many dreams.

If you can take out one gold coin to buy something, you may have a hundred gold coins in your pocket.

It is impossible to give this kind of fat sheep to others.

This is the logic of the robber.

So Ji Xun decided to choose a better hands-on environment for them.

This wealthy area is sparsely populated and very suitable for robbing homes.

Although there are some patrolling guards near the hotel manor area, they are useless to high-level card masters.

After entering the room, Qin Rushi lay on the sofa and read through the classics he bought today.

In that batch of classics, there was a lot of extraordinary knowledge that even she eagerly desired, and even the inheritance of the Bai family's God Thief sequence.

Ji Xun also took a few books to read together.

This is a long-standing habit between the two of them. Although they don't speak, they don't feel alienated at all.

Ming Kongque has been following them all this time and has become very familiar with Ji Xun.

Although it was a bit unpleasant when we met before, things have changed a lot now.

The peacock clan has the blood instinct to sense the malice of living beings, and she can distinguish the character of Ji Xun and Qin Rushi.

That’s why I kept following.

She had always lived in tents in the forest before. This was her first time in a human luxury hotel. She couldn't help but look around curiously.

Suddenly, Peacock sensed something and reminded: "The auras of those guys who were targeting us in the black market have appeared nearby."

In this month, she has roughly learned human language, and communication has become much easier.

Ji Xun raised his eyebrows and nodded, not caring at all and said: "Yeah."

This is a deliberate opportunity to leave opportunities for thieves. It would not be strange if they found him, but it would be strange if they didn't find him.

Qin Ruzhi knew what Ji Xun was thinking, so he wasn't surprised.

But Peacock still didn't understand the complicated twists and turns of human beings, and asked: "Those guys have murderous intentions, why don't you do something?"

"There's no rush now. They should go to the hotel to confirm our identities before taking action."

Ji Xun said firmly

When you go out, your identity is given by yourself.

The room was opened by the clone as a servant, and he inadvertently revealed the coat of arms of a wealthy border marquis from the north.

This also cooperates with the behavior of sweeping goods in the black market, allowing thieves to be sure that they are the nobles who come to buy.

Official thieves like the "Forty Thieves" dare to rob any family that is not related to the financial backer behind them.

As he spoke, he thought of something. He looked at the peacock and said with a smile, "By the way, Miss Bai, don't take action when the time comes. Just follow Aunt Qin and run away."

I was afraid that she wouldn't be able to act, so I gave her a reminder.

"run?"

Peacock rolled her eyes at him, she didn't want to take action yet.

But she didn't understand either, why should she run?

She knew very well how powerful the two humans in the house were, and the sneaky guys outside the house were no threat.

Ji Xun knew that her thinking mode was still the law of the jungle, so he organized his words and said: "Well, it is the bait for fishing. We want to catch the bigger prey behind the thieves."

The peacock crystal eyes turned to understand this explanation, and he did not forget to complain: "You humans are really cunning."

"."

Ji Xun smiled, but there was no way to refute.

Although the intelligence of high-level monsters is not low, in terms of intrigue and intrigue, it is really incomparable to humans.

The three of them stayed in the room, waiting for a while, as if they were tired and wanted to rest, and the magic lights in the room also went out.

Ji Xun sat cross-legged and meditated. He was now the steward's escort.

While Ji Xun and the other three were resting, a group of people had already gathered in a private house not far outside the hotel.

This group of people looked fierce, and none of them looked like good people.

"Second leader, it has been confirmed that those guys are from Marquis Hermann."

"The Heman family with several gold mines on the border of the Black Dragon Kingdom? No wonder they are so rich. It's not a big background. Now that you have confirmed your identity, prepare to take action."

"Hey, let's talk first. The news about this fat sheep came from our shop. This harvest will have to come from our shop, and we will only charge 20% off."

"Old woman, are you too greedy? On weekdays, you get at least 40%. If you resell it, you can still make at least 40%. Let us brothers do the murders and arson, and you can just flip it and make more than half of it?"

"It's different this time. This kind of fat sheep is not easy to find. Information is more valuable than anything else. After all, we are also risky. If we are exposed, old lady, I will bet the reputation of the shop."

"Haha, when did our brothers make a mistake? Don't worry, the boss is in the city too. I guarantee there will be no accidents."

"."

After waiting like this for an hour, there was suddenly no sound at all in the manor outside, not even the chirping of insects or birds.

Ji Xun, who was meditating, suddenly opened his eyes and murmured: "Is it finally here?"

He raised his eyes and looked out. It was already dark outside.

It is indeed a professional group. The quality of this closed barrier is not low, and it looks like a high-level relic at first glance.

Ji Xun was thinking when he suddenly noticed that a sneak assassin had entered the room. He suddenly shouted: "Sir, be careful!"

The "Forty Thieves" never leave anyone alive every time they rob, so when they come in, they are prepared to kill first.

Of course, Qin Rushi and Peacock had discovered it a long time ago, but they did nothing.

Because Ji Xun had already rushed to the side of the transparent figure, in order to prevent others from seeing the way out, he did not make a killing move. He raised his hand and flew out two cards: "Spell·Fire Thorns!"

It's just an ordinary seventh-level spell.

In an instant, the whole room was suddenly filled with flames, and large flaming vines suddenly sprouted from the floor.

Because it covered the entire room, the invisible assassin was caught off guard and revealed his figure.

Ji Xun raised his hand and flicked two more [Secret Fire Bullets].

However, a magical scene unfolded. The assassin seemed to be here to test the situation and was already on guard. The moment he was restrained, his body became as transparent as a ghost again, and three fire bombs passed through his body.

When Ji Xun saw this spell, his eyes narrowed slightly: "Ghost shadow sneaking? It turned out to be "Ghost Hand" Moradin. "

He is very familiar with the intelligence of Djinn City, especially these celebrities who have been on the wanted list all year round.

This guy is also a ruthless person who kills people without batting an eyelid. His undead sneaking skills are so mysterious that he has not been caught yet.

Ji Xun thought this guy was a clever man before, but now he saw that he was one of the "Forty" thieves.

The legend of the Forty Thieves is that the forty main generals in this gang are all senior card masters of level four or above, each with their own areas of expertise.

Ji Xun had no interest in killing a sixth-level assassin. Instead, he shouted at Qin Rushi and the others: "Sir, we are trapped by the barrier, let's go!"

Qin Ru said as he lifted up his cloak and put it on himself, covering his entire face.

The same is true for the peacock. The long robe covers his face and his appearance cannot be seen at all.

Not everyone is as good at acting as Ji Xun, especially when facing such a weak enemy, it is difficult for the two women to act panicked.

Fortunately, my face was covered, so it wasn't so easy to reveal any flaws.

The assassin heard the three of them trying to run away, sneered, and suddenly threw out several green poison bottles and smashed them to the ground.

The poisonous gas in the bottle has strong nerve paralysis properties and can slowly penetrate the magic shield.

Ji Xun gave it a try and immediately felt the burning and numbness on his skin. He chuckled in his heart: "The surgery is really professional."

This kind of poison is considered to be top-notch. Even if a seventh-level card master comes into contact with it, not to mention being poisoned to death, at least he will be in great trouble.

When Ji Xun thought of this, he pretended to take out a card in his hand: "Domain·Fire Disaster."

The best way to deal with toxins is in the field.

The Vientiane Domain can decompose everything, and of course simulating the simplest Flame Domain is not a problem.

As soon as Ji Xun's domain was opened, he led Qin Rushi and Peacock and rushed outside.

As soon as he walked out, several black lights pierced him instantly.

Taking a closer look, they were five cursed crossbow arrows.

"Tsk, tsk, seventh-level [Breaking Gang Magic Arrow]? What a good thing."

Ji Xun was not surprised at all. Instead, he identified the standard magic-breaking equipment of the Holy Holy Dragon Legion of the Holy See with great interest.

Each of these things is worth 100,000 gold. Although it may be cheaper on the black market, five of them are worth a lot of money.

Po Gang Breaking Technique, or sneak attack, seventh-level crispy skin can easily be hit.

Since the assassin just threw a poison bottle and drove them out of the room, Ji Xun guessed that they would encounter a trap. But this level of demon-breaking crossbow arrows is really useful against ordinary seventh-level people, but it is completely useless against him.

Ji Xun originally didn't do anything, and even the crossbow arrows couldn't break his current aura, but at this moment, his character was a fire card master, and he didn't reveal too much.

There was a stabbing sound, and he tried his best to fire four crossbow arrows, but there was still one crossbow arrow that penetrated his shoulder.

Qin Ru took it for granted and rushed out.

There was some confusion in Peacock's crystal eyes: Can this thing still hurt that guy?

Ji Xun was like a prey trapped in a trap, completely reckless in wanting to break out of the barrier.

Just as he was hit by the arrow, he was hit by several sword energy.

As soon as Ji Xun saw this sword energy, he knew it was the seventh level.

The sword energy was very strange. When it struck, it not only broke the wind, but also felt like it was pulling out the soul.

"Demon sword?"

Ji Xun immediately realized that this situation could only mean that there was something weird about the weapon.

He quickly used the flame field to condense a shield and blocked the sword energy.

However, the soul trembled slightly.

Ji Xun's soul strength has no effect at all, but this sword is enough to frighten an average seventh-level swordsman for a moment.

He wanted to see who the enemy was, so he pretended to be stiff.

In the blink of an eye, he looked at the darkness, and a masked man holding a black sword came out and slashed at him.

Ji Xun recognized this famous sword at a glance, which was ranked 82nd on the "List of the Top 100 Evil Weapons in the Southern Continent" and has appeared in the past hundred years - [Ghost Sword·Qi Yehun Bladeless]!

"Oh, this gang really has good stuff."

Ji Xun had seen those evil weapons in the library before and paid careful attention to them.

The effect of this knife is that when it cuts, it will be attacked by a resentful spirit, affecting the person's soul. The more people kill, the more resentful and powerful they become.

Looking at the posture, this guy has killed quite a few souls.

Ji Xun remembered correctly. This sword was once in the hands of a small noble, and the family was exterminated for it.

This is no ordinary gang of thieves, "official thieves" have already taken root.

No wonder no one was left alive. As soon as these things appeared, they could immediately guess where they came from.

In a moment of thought, Ji Xun dodged to the limit, but the shield was still broken by a knife, and a bloody gash fell on his chest.

The swiping sword energy kept coming, making Ji Xun look very embarrassed.

He was approached by a seventh-level swordsman with a magic system, and it was normal for him to be pressed and beaten.

What's more, there were seven or eight figures surrounding him, looking like they were going to kill him instantly.

Ji Xun knew that he was outmatched and could not break through the encirclement. He shouted again in a panic: "Sir, please leave quickly!"

Qin Ru was speechless when he heard this. He raised his hand and released a card.

In the blink of an eye, a space door appeared in front of them.

The two women slipped through the door without hesitation and disappeared.

Ji Xun exploded and took advantage of the moment when the space door disappeared to escape in a thrilling manner.

Seeing the three people escaping, the masked assassin and seven or eight others stopped.

However, instead of being worried, there was joy in their eyes.

Of course the masked swordsman knew what he was buying, and muttered: "It's actually the [Space Gate] spell card. He's really rich."

Space cards are extremely expensive, and they are strategic materials that are not available on the market and are only available in the hands of some top nobles.

And normally, it requires someone who is proficient in the laws of space to use it, but Qin Ruzhi just used the space crystal core drive.

This move will no longer expose the economic strength of the fat sheep.

"Second leader, them."

"Don't worry, you can't run away. The boss will intercept those guys, let's go quickly."

"."

Ji Xun and the other three ran away.

But Ji Xun knew that they couldn't run away.

I could have killed those guys who attacked at night before, but I didn't do that.

Although a seventh-level person came, Ji Xun knew that the leader of the "Forty Thieves" was a necromancer.

Moreover, that guy had not been caught for so long, so he must be cunning and suspicious. Ji Xun didn't think that the leader would blindly run out without understanding the situation.

If the three of them had been killed just now, the leader would not have come out; if they had killed the thief, the leader would have been frightened and would not have come out.

Only by escaping will the mysterious leader be forced to show up.

In an instant, in a dark alley three blocks away.

Ji Xun and the other three walked out of the space door.

Peacock looked at the bleeding wounds on Ji Xun's body in confusion. He wanted to say something, but then swallowed it in his mouth.

If she didn't know this guy's strength, she really thought Ji Xun was going to die.

Seeing the panic on Ji Xun's face, Peacock couldn't help but mutter: "What a cunning human being."

Ji Xun didn't pay attention, but returned the encouraging look: "Good performance."

It's really difficult for an eighth-level Peacock to accompany him in such a clumsy play.

Ji Xun didn't say much, still in the role he was playing, and said to Qin Ru: "Sir, let's leave quickly, those thieves will definitely come after us."

Qin Rushi also nodded, and then rushed into the dark alley.

This doesn't seem wrong to outsiders. It's not surprising that someone with a huge amount of money leaves a backdoor to escape when he goes out.

The further the three of them ran, the fewer people there were.

Then as he ran, he seemed to hear someone chanting the incantation "Region·Lingzhijingjingdao" from somewhere.

The surroundings suddenly became dark again.

It was obviously still an alley and the buildings were still there, but it was so lifeless that no movement could be heard at all.

Ji Xun and the others suddenly stopped.

Because at this time, a mysterious man wearing a black cloak and full of deathly aura appeared in front of him.

He looked at the three of them and sneered: "Everyone, where else do you want to go?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a dozen figures appeared on the surrounding roofs.

When Ji Xun saw the rightful owner appeared, a hint of amusement appeared in his eyes.

Compared to some thieves, when he looked at this guy's domain, he muttered in his heart: "This undead domain is a bit interesting."

Although he didn't fully understand it, Ji Xun had a good understanding of necromancy. He could tell at a glance that this area locked people's souls, a bit like "a ghost breaking a wall". As long as the caster didn't unlock it, it would be difficult to escape.

Seeing Ji Xun trying to use the field to crack the field, the man in the cloak opposite said sarcastically: "Don't waste your efforts, even the [Space Gate] is useless. It just so happened that I got an undead treasure during this time, don't you guys Might have escaped."

In his opinion, the trophies on these people are all his. Don't waste precious life-saving cards like [Space Gate].

As he said this, the guy showed off the crystal skull in his hand.

[Aztec Crystal Skull]

Detailed explanation: The relics of the necromancer in the mythical period were once evil objects that caused the death of hundreds of millions of creatures; the skull contains powerful necromantic power, and it has the magical effect of imprisoning souls. The more imprisoned souls, the stronger the extraordinary properties; currently Number of forbidden souls (5543);

"."

When Ji Xun and the other three heard this, their expressions changed for a moment.

The thieves thought they were scared.

But in fact, all three of them had the same idea in mind: These guys have so many treasures!

This [Crystal Skull] is of extremely high grade and has very strong pollution properties. It looks like it should have come from the Royal Academy.

Ji Xun knew very well that there were not only normal treasures in the Royal Academy's treasure house, but also some banned "forbidden items".

Just like Bureau X in the Eastern Wasteland, they contain relics with extraordinary properties that ordinary card masters cannot control, or extraordinary items that are extremely harmful to human beings.

This skull is an object that becomes powerful by collecting souls.

Ji Xun did not take action immediately. Instead, he opened his mouth and said with an acknowledgment of defeat: "Which path are you friends from? We are subordinates of Lord Herman, and this person next to me is..."

Now that the real owner has appeared, the decoy plan has achieved its purpose.

Ji Xun and the other three were no longer in a hurry.

The reason why they didn't take action was that they were waiting for other thieves to come and then catch them all.

After saying that, Ji Xun also said very knowledgably: "If you are looking for money. We have some money here. If we give you money for tea, just treat it as making friends."

He revealed his identity and said he was willing to spend money to eliminate the disaster. This is also the best way for many people to deal with robberies.

Under normal circumstances, ordinary thieves would not want to offend a noble like the Border Marquis, and would withdraw the money.

Too bad this is "The Forty Thieves."

They never leave anyone alive.

Hearing Ji Xun's words, the cloaked necromancer only had amusement in his eyes. He didn't refuse, he just said: "Oh, let's see, how much 'tea money' do you plan to spend?"

Ji Xun gestured to the storage ring in his hand and said, "I can give these to you."

He knew this guy was waiting for an accomplice.

This is in the Giant Spirit City. I really have to risk my life with this "seventh-level fire spell". There is a lot of movement, and maybe they will suffer a lot of losses.

The best way is to wait for the seventh-level swordsman who attacked before to come, and then encircle and kill them quickly.

The Necromancer didn't look at the storage rings at all, but said: "Okay! Mercifully, I agreed to your exchange. You can leave. But if the two people around you want to leave, they must pay enough ransom." "

"."

Ji Xun knew that this guy was stalling for time.

But for a necromancer, searching for souls is a basic skill, and dead people are better able to ask about any secrets than living people.

Ji Xun originally wanted to chat a few more words, but in the blink of an eye, he heard the peacock beside him say: "The guy from before is here."

He completely lost interest.

Turning his face, Ji Xun looked at the cloaked man, suddenly sneered, and said directly: "No wonder you are so shameless. It turns out that you are the 'Earl of Wushan' in the East City."

As soon as these words came out, the body of the necromancer who was calm and composed just now trembled obviously, as if he was shocked why his true identity was revealed: "You, you."

Looking at this guy's reaction, Ji Xun clicked his tongue and lost much interest.

Not that he actually recognized the cloaked man's face when he saw it.

Instead, he recognized the weapons and abilities of several nearby gang accomplices and deduced their identities.

People have social circles with each other. Through the identities of several people, the complex network of connections in the Giant City is enough to deduce who the leader of the "Forty Thieves" is.

Ji Xun immediately locked onto the "Earl of Wushan".

No one thought that the nobleman was the leader of the bandits.

Of course, this is a down-and-out nobleman without a fiefdom.

When the cloaked man heard his identity being revealed, he immediately realized that something was wrong.

But he also couldn't figure out where the confidence of these three guys in front of him came from?

The second brother can force them to flee, but now that he takes action, can these guys still be alive?

Are there any other helpers?

The cloaked man was confused for a moment.

However, the coldness in his eyes is getting stronger and stronger. Now that his identity is exposed, there will be endless troubles if he escapes. The three people in front of him must die!

He stared at Ji Xun and asked, "Your Excellency, are you here for me?"

At this juncture, no matter how stupid he is, he still knows that what happened tonight is a scam.

Ji Xun didn't want to say more: "Originally, I wanted to ask you a few questions. But I guess that's it, you won't know how to say it."

The three of them did not continue to pretend. Their indifference overwhelmed these murderous thieves and they actually felt like their breathing was stagnant.

The cloaked man already felt something bad in his heart, but after all, he is a murderous bandit, so he was not afraid at all: "I know that you may have some tricks. But this is me who you really think you can do anything about in the City of Giants?"

With the treasure in hand, he is very confident that even if the eighth level comes, he may not be able to do anything to him.

What's more, there are only three people in front of you?

Strong dragons do not overwhelm local snakes. In the city of Giant Spirit, there are not many simple people who are involved in the black market. Once the commotion gets louder, I will be in trouble, but I can call on my friends casually and kill these guys first.

After Ji Xun heard this, he seemed to think about it seriously: "That's right."

As he spoke, he said: "Then I'll ask you two questions. If you answer them, I'll let you go."

"oh?"

The cloaked man heard something interesting to say, and his eyes flashed with a hint of cunning.

If we can talk at this juncture, in his opinion, the other party may not have much confidence.

Thinking of this, he had already secretly made a subtle hint towards his subordinates: Kill!

Ji Xun didn't seem to notice and asked the first question directly: "Is it the old woman from the black market who betrayed us?"

The cloaked man thought for a moment, then said with a half-smile, "Yes."

It’s no big deal now that I admit it.

They are all dead people anyway.

"oh."

Ji Xun was not surprised, "Then the second question, where is the treasure house of Rainbow Chamber of Commerce?"

As soon as these words came out, the cloaked man's expression changed drastically!

Being recognized by someone was already very confusing. He really couldn't understand why the guy in front of him knew about his relationship with the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce!

However, just as the voice fell, a pitch-black long sword slashed towards Ji Xun's neck from the void.

Covered by the death energy of the domain, the [Ghost Sword·Qi Yehun Wubian] slashed silently.

The two had used this trick to kill too many masters together, without a single mistake.

This time, it was the same!

"Fat Sheep" had no reaction at all, and the knife slashed directly on the neck.

"Hit!"

The swordsman was delighted, this knife would definitely kill him!

However, as soon as the relief in his heart appeared in his eyes, his expression changed instantly, turning into endless astonishment.

With a "clang" sound, sparks flew in front of his eyes.

He actually looked at his knife and cut sparks on the guy's neck!
