Cataclysm King

Chapter 584 The new king is crowned
King Arthur was killed and the war ended abruptly.

The tyrant abdicates. This is also the only way, according to Ji Xun's deduction, for the coalition forces to win this decisive battle.

Although the result was the same as expected, the process was somewhat different.

Before the battle, Ji Xun was not sure what methods Arthur had, so he deduced that it would be difficult for Chujiu to kill Arthur, and he might even pay with his life.

The key lies in the secret operation of "Light Chaser" Jia Yu to deal with the [Spelled Pottery Jars] of the two foreign gods.

Although with the help of the Bai family, the process will definitely not be smooth.

He will be stopped by the moon goddess Arachne, and then a fierce battle will take place.

That mushroom-head will probably summon other members of the Illuminati and seal them using ancient secret techniques.

This was originally a tough battle to test the strength of both sides.

Just like the bloody mist coup that destroyed the Oran royal court two hundred years ago, the Illuminati might suffer heavy losses.

It’s hard to say how many people will survive in the end.

It is even hard to say whether the seal can be successful.

But now the result is.

Everything went well.

It seems that the best expected results were achieved at the lowest cost.

Everyone on the coalition side was immersed in ecstasy of victory in the battle.

But Ji Xun is not so optimistic.

Because Mushroom Head is really dead.

That guy left a message with his death: the "existence" that actually caused the discontinuity of Talen civilization really exists.

Perhaps it was the "Plane Monitor" that Emperor Lanlingster left on the Forbidden Ruins Stele, or perhaps it was not.
The truth is no longer known.

No one knew what had happened, and Jia Yu cleverly tied all the clues to himself.

That "existence" didn't seem to want to expose itself in advance, which also ensured the safety of others.

Especially Ji Xun, who can guess the truth to a certain extent.

But he knew that Jia Yu must have left some clues.

This clue is now hidden and may take time to decipher.

King Arthur of Oran was beheaded in public, and Chujiu became the only King Augustus.

She took off the holy relic [Crown of Thorns] from Arthur's body, which symbolized the inheritance of the throne of Oran, and her royal destiny soared to the extreme.

King Arthur was dead, the Moon Goddess had also disappeared, and even though Orlan had many elite troops that were still able to fight, they did not know who they were fighting for, and no one was in charge of how to fight. Millions of troops were routed.

The remaining soldiers of the coalition forces rushed out of the bunkers and began to counterattack.

Without encountering much resistance, they captured a large number of prisoners and began to clean up the battlefield.

Marshal Andre did not prioritize picking his spoils, but just said hello to Ji Xun and left.

Although the Iris Legion had some secret arrangements, they were not launched in the end.

The coalition forces suffered much less casualties than expected. Even if both sides suffered losses, Andre knew that he had no chance of winning.

Moreover, he had no good way to deal with the current mess in Donghuang.

The three Outer Gods did disappear inexplicably, but Silver Moon believers are still everywhere.

If we really come into conflict with the coalition forces, no matter what the outcome, it will only cause more trouble.

As an ally, we can see the best option.

Not long after, Nan Jing also returned from the insect nest.

Although Chujiu didn't care about the red tape, he was King Augustus after all, so some grand ceremonies were still needed.

In the ruined 001 Mechanical City, people simply cleaned up the corpses and bloodstains on the Mechanical City and welcomed the new king to the throne.

Chujiu walked slowly along the red carpet and headed towards the throne that had been passed down in the Oran royal court for more than two thousand years.

The high priest Nan Jing personally performed the coronation ceremony and placed the "Crown of Thorns" on her head, symbolizing the legitimacy of the Oran monarchy.

From the moment he wore the crown, Chujiu became the only and legitimate King Augustus.

On the battlefield where the smoke had not yet cleared, cannons blared and the Allied forces cheered.

On the turret at the edge of the mechanical city, a figure stood on the thick gun barrel, looking at Chujiu who ascended the throne, with a knowing smile on his face.

Ji Xun didn't like the cumbersome court etiquette, but just enjoyed the performance process.

Now that the performance is over and a new play is on, he prefers to stay in a corner where the spotlight can't reach, watching the actors and the audience on the stage.

This coronation ceremony is not only symbolic, but also has extraordinary significance.

The lively and joyous celebration was reflected in Ji Xun's eyes. Layers of golden ripples lingered on Chujiu's body as he wore the crown. It was the embodiment of his royal destiny.

Previously, her royal destiny was silver, but now it shines like gold.

At this moment, the divine power of Chujiu, visible to the naked eye, also became extremely powerful.

"I've gotten stronger again. The promotion ceremony of the King's Fate is truly magical."

Ji Xun murmured.

He was filled with emotion in his heart, the royal destiny was really special, just by ascending the throne and being crowned, the card master could gain a promotion in status.

Similarly, Ji Xun also found that he seemed to be blessed by an invisible luck, and his soul fell into a very magical state.

Not only him, the fate of everyone present seemed to become clearer.

Ji Xun pondered for a moment and guessed that it was because of the [Imperial Secret Book of Conferring Titles].

The fate of all those who were canonized was greatly improved at this moment as the new king Chujiu ascended the throne.

It was like riding on a huge chariot, being carried forward.

Just at this moment, Ji Xun saw Chujiu's gentle gaze from a few hundred meters away.

There was gratitude in that look, joy shared with friends, relief from revenge, and hope for the future.
There is no need to explain the tacit understanding between the two.

From the time they first met in the "407 Abnormal Biology Research Institute" space in Devil's Cross to now when they ascended to the throne, the two have experienced many things together.

It can be said that without Ji Xun, there would be no Chujiu today; without Chujiu, there would be no Ji Xun today.

They are the most tacit partners and the closest friends.

Ji Xun responded with a slight smile and a nod, which was the most tacit words between friends.

Chujiu understood and nodded in this direction.

The coronation ceremony continues, it is a carnival for the victors.

Ji Xun sat cross-legged on the slightly warm gun barrel, supporting his chin with one hand, while watching the ceremony in the distance.

In his other hand, the black card he was playing with was spinning like a windmill.

This is the bloody card of [Dictator] analyzed from Arthur's body.

What the Oran royal family uses is of course the best, and this is also the original template.

Because the fusion time is not long enough, the cards can be used directly without adding any materials.

And it can be said that this is the strongest professional card Ji Xun has ever seen!
It was so powerful that even he found its attributes outrageous.

The most important entry is: it allows the Tyrant to control the power of rules within the human scope.

Ji Xun's JOKER mark is highly compatible with the fifty-two sequence, and of course the tyrant sequence is also acceptable.

However, there is a very special condition in the fusion of [Dictator], which is that it requires an extremely strong royal destiny.

There is no data showing the fate, so you can only rely on your feeling.

When Ji Xun got the card before, he clearly felt that he was still a little short of something.

It was like riding a dragon, and his immediate instinct told him that he couldn't control it.

It's not just about strength, but also about the difference in destiny. It's a sense of conflict between high-level destiny that lower creatures cannot control.

Arthur had the Moon Queen, the Black Coffin, and sacrificed a million people to merge.
Ji Xun didn't think he would be able to achieve integration in his lifetime.

Just when he felt regretful for missing out on such a powerful professional card, a surprise came suddenly.

At that moment just now, after Chujiu put on the crown and ascended the throne, Ji Xun had a very strong feeling that this picture of [Dictator] actually had a sense of fit?
Ji Xun's eyes reflected the brilliant light and shadow of the salute. He pondered and muttered, "I wonder why my royal destiny has become so strong?"

Logically speaking, since it was the ninth day of the first lunar month that ascended the throne, it was only natural that her fate would skyrocket.

I have no interest in royal power and there are no ceremonies, so why did it also skyrocket?
And it doesn’t make sense. This is a ninth-level professional card. My current realm is far from being able to integrate it. How can I have the feeling that “I can integrate”?

Is it an illusion?
Just as he was frowning in thought, a gentle voice sounded behind him: "Isn't it strange that your fate has changed so much?"

Like fate and divine power, low-level card masters cannot fully understand the mysterious power, but top-level card masters can already clearly sense the changes.

This is the law of destiny.

Ji Xun looked back and saw that the stunningly beautiful woman in black dress behind him was none other than Griffith.

Ji Xun stood up, and Griffith looked at his puzzled expression and motioned him to be polite, while explaining: "Actually, I don't really like crowds."

Ji Xun tilted his head, "Oh."

Griffith always gives people an extreme elegance. Even at this moment, she smoothed her skirt and sat next to Ji Xun, watching the new king ascend the throne in the distance. The topic returned to the previous question: "Your fate and that of His Majesty Chujiu have long been entangled."

"."

Ji Xun actually thought of this possibility. Only this explanation could explain why his royal power also skyrocketed.

Griffith smiled gently and explained, "The [JOKER] mark was left by Emperor Lanlingster, and the [Queen of Diamonds - White Queen] is also the royal mark that has been passed down by the Augustus family for more than 100,000 years. So it's not surprising that there is a fateful entanglement. The law of fate often involves specific objects, and will affect those who touch them for countless years to come."

"Ah."

Ji Xun also nodded.

In his eyes, he seemed to see the cause and effect connection that went back tens of thousands of years.

Griffith didn't say much on this topic, and instead said, "This time it's all thanks to you. I was worried that His Majesty would be in danger. I didn't expect you to be able to intervene in the 'Double King Showdown'."

"I didn't know that before either."

Ji Xun shrugged and said self-deprecatingly: "Then I looked at Arthur's rules and suddenly realized that I could get in, so I helped a little bit."

This was something he had not anticipated beforehand.

Originally, this duel between the kings of the team could only be fought by Chujiu himself, and no one else could help.

I didn't expect that I would enter the barrier by chance.

Looking back now, it seems that I discovered some flaws in the rules of the tyrant's ability, and that's it.

However, when Griffith heard this, the curved corners of his eyes suppressed the excitement in his eyes and said, "You may not realize what extraordinary thing you have realized."

Others couldn't understand why Ji Xun was able to intervene in the duel between the two kings, but a card master at her level could understand some of it.

Ji Xun cast a curious and puzzled look: "???"

Griffith glanced at him with a meaningful smile in his eyes and said, "Have you noticed that after the King's Fate is upgraded, you feel that this ninth-level occupation card does not seem to be difficult to fuse?"

"."

Ji Xun was reminded of this and suddenly thought of something.

Before he could speak, Griffith had already said, "In theory, to advance from level 8 to level 9, one needs to comprehend the secrets of the 'holy realm' in order to ensure that one's extraordinary power is not distorted during the advancement. But you haven't encountered that bottleneck yet."

The ninth level of transcendence actually means reaching the pinnacle that humans can achieve in a certain field.

For example, Griffith's "Saint of Painting" reached the pinnacle of humanity in the field of art.

After that, it is the power of gods.

"So, I have entered the holy realm?"

Ji Xun himself couldn't believe it, because he didn't have it!

Hearing this, Griffith sneered and shook his head, "No. You have realized something higher than the 'holy realm'. This is why you and His Majesty were able to break through the rules set by the tyrant and kill the enemy."

After a pause, she explained in detail: "The essence of the Holy Realm is the highest level of the card master's control over his own understanding of the laws. And the Holy Realm is the manifestation of the ability to control the laws within the existing range of control. In fact, it is the prototype of the 'power of rules'. So you understand, what you comprehended before was the tyrant's ability to change the rules."

"."

Ji Xun indeed understood this explanation.

He felt a little incredible.

Griffith also found it incredible, with memories flashing in his eyes. He said with a little self-mockery: "It took a great opportunity for me to comprehend the Holy Land back then, and I was able to cross that threshold. But you...you have jumped over this threshold."

As she spoke, she tilted her head to look at Ji Xun, and exclaimed in amazement: "Maybe it's the special JOKER mark, or it could be the blessing of the [Secret Book of Imperial Conferment], or it could be the fate of His Majesty Chujiu..."

If you count them carefully, it is really like a lot of great opportunities coming together.

Griffith suddenly felt relieved again.

"I see."

Only then did Ji Xun understand what she meant when she said that she had realized something incredible.

In other words, after this war, he somehow broke through the ninth level?
The pace of the battle was too intense before, so I didn't think about it too much.

Looking back now, Ji Xun realized that he had really gained a lot.

Griffith said, looking at Chujiu sitting on the throne in the distance, and finally said jokingly: "The Crown of Thorns is a sacred relic of the tyrant's exclusive royal power. It will help you deepen this super-level perception. I think His Majesty will not mind you wearing her crown."

"That's it"

Hearing this, Ji Xun also raised his eyebrows and looked at Chujiu in the distance.

Of course this old friend wouldn't mind.

I thought I would give it a try when she is free.

The coronation ceremony was kept as simple as possible and was completed quickly.

What follows is to thoroughly clean up the battlefield, and then deal with the power vacuum in Eastern Wilderness after the collapse of the Oran Royal Court.

With the support of Rennie, Rick and the old ministers of Oran who had surrendered before, many of the old ministers of Oran who had been loyal to Arthur were also willing to surrender and swear allegiance.

With the cooperation of these surrendered ministers, the subsequent battlefield cleanup was extremely smooth.

Chujiu and Nanjing are both a king and a high priest. They have to deal with a lot of government affairs and are too busy to spare time.

Ji Xun was not in a hurry to disturb him.

The battle was over and everyone else had things to do, but he, as a non-staff member, had some free time.

Thinking that nothing was wrong, Ji Xun went to the treasury of the Oran royal family, wanting to see what was recorded in those palace secrets and to pick up some spoils.

Although Marshal Andre left magnanimously, Ji Xun could not go back on his word and had to send a batch of good things.

Moreover, the Iris Legion is the strongest ally of the future coalition forces, and many collaborations need to be planned now.

In the royal treasury where treasures were piled up like mountains, Ji Xun was alone picking and looking around.

After all, the Orlan Royal Court is the most critical source of the Talen Empire, and it does have a lot of good things.

However, Ji Xun's current rank no longer has much demand for relics. Instead, he is more interested in the classics that record history.

"Hey, the Nan Family, the Bai Family, and the King's Four Knights, it turns out these old families of Oran still have so many secrets."

"Tsk tsk. Nine sons fighting for the throne? Eight hundred years ago, the Oran royal family also had a coup d'état in which brothers killed each other."

"It turns out that the blood mist coup d'état two hundred years ago was so violent. The abilities of the thirteen knights of the Illuminati are very special."

"."

The classics record the history of the Oran royal court ruling the Eastern Wilds for nearly two thousand years.

Ji Xun also saw many interesting events from the dusty history.

Those classics filled in almost all the missing pieces of his puzzle of Eastern Wilderness history.

From the clues in history, Ji Xun also deduced more "erased traces".

After reading this, he was immersed in various classics.

However, not long after, a beautiful figure walked into the treasure house.

There are not many people who can enter here now, and Allied Commander-in-Chief Catalina is one of them.

Ji Xun looked back and saw Catalina, who was wearing a white military uniform and looked heroic, walking in. "I said I didn't see you at the coronation ceremony. It turns out you were hiding here."

Ji Xun smiled and said, "Are you done?"

Catalina sat next to Ji Xun, her brows showing fatigue. "It's still early. It will take at least several days to clean up the battlefield, and there is also the subsequent taking over of the mess left by the original Orlan regime. There are more things to do."

After all, she had been fighting for such a long time, and the highly concentrated command had left her exhausted.

She sat in Ji Xun's arms intimately as usual, and said with a little pride: "I finally took some time to rest, so I came to see you."

As she spoke, a charming moonlight flashed in her eyes that others could not see.

Ji Xun seemed to be unaware of it, looking at Catalina's beautiful face, "Why do I feel that Miss Carter is particularly beautiful today?"

"Really?"

Katerina's eyes were seductive.

She was not shy about any intimate actions now, but teased with a hint of meaning: "Do you feel special wearing a military uniform?"

Ji Xun held the tight buttocks with both hands and tasted them, "Hmm."

Catalina was not shy at all. She felt the vitality and said coquettishly: "Hey, hey, hey, this is the palace, please restrain yourself."

Even so,

But it didn't stop me at all.

Let the big hand reach into the collar.

There was no third person here, and things suddenly became ambiguous.

Soon, the military uniforms fell to the ground. Under the faint blue light of the magic lamp, Katarina's snow-white skin revealed a unique jade-like texture.

Catalina, with her messy blonde hair, looks very charming.

The moonlight in Ji Xun's eyes became more and more intense.

It was a beautiful scene, but suddenly, Ji Xun said something strange: "Well, actually, I will cooperate with you even without the Silver Moon Secret Technique."

When "Katrina" heard this, the charm on her face suddenly froze.

She realized something and her expression suddenly changed: "You"

Ji Xun raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and did not forget to tease: "Well, the experience is good. Lord Arachne."

Although it is Catalina's body, the consciousness in the body at this moment is the real Moon God!

After planning for so long, the Moon Queen finally took the bait.
