Cataclysm King

Chapter 611 The Pope with a Treasure

A few days passed by.

The city of Tenis was already a scene of festive celebration.

The whole city was dressed up, with blooming flowers placed on the windowsills of buildings on both sides of the streets, and hung with colorful flags and ribbons fluttering in the wind.

Each flag has a royal emblem outlined in gold, symbolizing glory and power.

The coat of arms features four royal sacred objects: a crown, a scepter, a greatsword and an orb.

The main body is a clown head wearing a tricorn hat.

A thick red velvet carpet has been laid on the main road of the city, extending from the magnificent palace to the central square of the city.

The mechanical airship in the sky also dropped a huge photo of Ji Xun, and the soldiers were all wearing dress uniforms with ribbons. Everything in the city indicated that a grand coronation ceremony was about to be held here.

On the other side, in a magnificent palace built specifically for coronation.

The palace ceremonial officials dressed Ji Xun, who was about to be crowned, in the emperor's new clothes.

It was a blue robe made of the finest silk and velvet, a brocade cape embroidered with holy and gorgeous gold patterns, and luxurious leather boots with gold rings and silver buckles. From head to toe he exuded luxury and the majesty of an emperor.

Except for that slightly boring expression, he looks like a supreme emperor no matter how you look at him.

In the mirror, Ji Xun looked at his luxurious outfit and smacked his lips: "Is it really necessary to make it so complicated?"

Although he knew that court etiquette was complicated, he felt that it was a waste of time to wait for several hours to get it done.

Several palace ladies had already left, and only Nan Jing, who was also wearing a dress with gold patterns, was left here.

As the high priestess, she was of course required to preside over the emperor's coronation ceremony in person.

While helping Ji Xun sort out the final details, Nan Jing said, "Of course it is necessary. After all, he is the emperor, and the coronation ceremony cannot be neglected. Moreover, the grander the ceremony, the stronger the corresponding dynasty's luck. This has been passed down for countless years and is a necessary part of consolidating the laws of royal power."

As she spoke, she looked Ji Xun up and down with her lively eyes, and said with a smile: "Well! It's okay. Ji Xun, you are also super handsome as an emperor~"

"."

Ji Xun didn't seem very interested. If it weren't for that plan, he really wouldn't be interested in being the emperor.

He is nominally the hands-off emperor, but in fact, the specific matters are still handled by Chujiu, Catalina, and Qin Rushi.

Thinking of something, Ji Xun asked again: "By the way, how is it over there?"

Nan Jing knew what he was asking and responded, "The battle in the Holy City of Vatican City has come to an end, and the Holy See's defeat is certain. According to reliable intelligence, Pope Polarante has already led his elite troops to break out in advance, and his current whereabouts are unknown."

The development of the situation was almost the same as the deduction. Ji Xun smiled awkwardly as he listened. "There are only two ways for those guys to escape. Now that the dead dragon Marodis is in power, there will be no space for other dragons to survive in the southern continent. They can only flee to the old continent. If nothing unexpected happens, perhaps someone from the Holy See has already sneaked into the city. They are just waiting for me, the new emperor, to ascend the throne so that they can kill them easily."

From his current perspective, there are very few secrets in this world.

No matter what conspiracy or intrigue is going on, you can know the whole picture with just one peek.

There will be few surprises.

"Yes."

Nan Jing glanced at Ji Xun and said with some concern: "You are proclaiming yourself emperor in the Southern Continent, and the Aier Empire is on the verge of collapse. In the eyes of the Holy See, this is stealing the fortune of the Dragon Empire. They will definitely make trouble for you."

Then, she glanced at Ji Xun again, "But the threat from the Holy See isn't that big. Are you really planning to do that?"

"Ah."

Ji Xun knew that the high priest Nan Jing knew about the existence of the "Plane Supervisor".

So, apart from Old Man Xu, she might be the only one who can understand what she is trying to do.

It can be said that Ji Xun's enthronement now has brought together the fortune of the Eastern Wilderness, and at the same time has also concentrated all the crises on himself.

Just like a person holding a torch in the dark, he will inevitably be coveted by wild beasts.

This risk is simply beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Ji Xun looked at Nan Jing's worried eyes, held her cute round face, and said, "If I want to condense my godhood, I will definitely be noticed. And the two jars are still on me, I can't hide. I have to try anyway."

"Oh."

Nan Jing pouted, and swallowed what she wanted to say, and silently helped Ji Xun straighten his clothes.

On the other side, in an inconspicuous small building in the residential area of ​​Tenis City.

Several guys in white cloaks were looking furtively at the towering palace not far away and the photo of the emperor hanging on the airship in the sky, their eyes full of cold sarcasm.

"These natives of the Eastern Wasteland really have a good idea, they want to steal the royal power and luck to condense the godhood. Humph, it's so stupid! They really think that they can gain a foothold in the Southern Continent by bringing with them hundreds of thousands of rebels."

"Those guys are not completely stupid. They probably guessed that sooner or later someone would reach out to the Old World. If they try their luck, maybe they still have a chance. As far as I know, there are still a few powerful guys in the East Wilderness. Just like the leader of the rebels, Qin, and the guy who wants to be the emperor. It is said that Lord Redeglie of the Simon family died in his hands."

"Those guys are really clever. They claim to be emperors in Tenis City. It's obvious that they want to steal the luck and escape back to the Old World at any time."

"It is said that all the masters from the Eastern Wasteland have come this time, and they want to be crowned with the dynasty's fortune. Humph, it is just right to get rid of this pot, so that we can seize the ruling power faster when we go to the Old Continent."

"Yes. And all the airships in the city must be destroyed. We can't leave any for those guys from the Sun Cult."

"."

These people were none other than the remnants of the Holy See who had fled.

The lack of intelligence and the arrogance of ruling the Southern Continent for countless years have left them almost ignorant of the current strength of the Eastern Wilderness.

Apart from Qin Rushi and the false news deliberately spread by Ji Xun and others, they knew nothing about the new empire that was about to be established.

What they didn't know was that Ji Xun had been waiting for so many days, not only for the preparations for the coronation ceremony, but most importantly for the defeated soldiers who would come with the secret treasures of the Holy See.

"Woo, woo, woo"

The melodious ceremonial music resounded throughout the city of Tenis.

Ji Xun rode in a luxurious dragon-horned carriage inlaid with various gems, toured most of the city along the red carpet, and then returned to the palace.

On both sides of the red carpet, hundreds of mechanical warriors were lined up neatly, firing their guns in unison.

The high priest Nan Jing, dressed in a black robe with gold patterns, stood at the end of the stairs. Beside her was the Valkyrie Qin Rushi, wearing shining silver armor, the White Queen Chujiu, wearing a water blue dress, Catalina, wearing the dress of the Moon Queen, and Dong Qi, wearing a mechanical exoskeleton. Next to her was the Marshal Andre of the Iris Legion. There were generals and ministers from the rebel army, the allied army, and the Oran royal court.

Everyone looked at the golden carriage and it stopped in front of the stairs.

The guard opened the car door, and Ji Xun, dressed in an imperial robe, stepped onto the red carpet.

Ji Xun looked up at the long stairs and walked up with a determined look.

The moment he stepped onto the stairs, he felt countless eyes focused on him. That was the power of faith that belonged exclusively to the king.

From today on, he is the emperor, the supreme emperor believed by countless people.

For the first time, Ji Xun clearly felt the surging royal power blessing himself.

The steps before him seemed to make him see a long stairway to heaven.

Ji Xun sensed clearly that with every step he took, the royal aura on his body became more solid.

"Is this the extraordinary promotion ceremony?"

Ji Xun carefully sensed this wonderful feeling.

The royal coronation ceremony is almost the most intuitive extraordinary promotion ceremony in the world. Once crowned, the fate will change immediately.

Moreover, this ceremony allows people to clearly see the bizarre scene of the royal laws that were originally scattered throughout the universe converging on one point.

Ascending to the throne step by step, Ji Xun clearly felt that he had become the master of all living things, and his aura surged visibly.

I also saw the lines of fate that were tied to me.

On the panel, refresh the Enlightenment Library:

"You gained some insights during the coronation ceremony. The Law of Kingship +88731"

"You realized the power of the emperor during the promotion ceremony, and your divine fire awareness +1233"

"."

"Is this the promotion ceremony? No wonder."

Ji Xun carefully sensed the changes in his body.

He had a very strong feeling that if he wanted, he could follow the river of laws that flowed before him like a substance and glimpse the mystery of how the laws of royal power condensed into divinity.

But Ji Xun didn't do that. He just experienced the process carefully.

Not only him, the emperor, but also Qin Rushi, Chujiu, Catalina, Dong Qi, and the generals and ministers also felt the sense of enlightenment brought about by the majestic dynasty's fortune.

At this moment, the fortunes of all major forces have truly gathered together.

The intertwined fates bring about a qualitative sublimation.

Most people cannot see the flow of laws as clearly as Ji Xun, but they can also feel the blood-boiling sense of pride.

It was as if they had worked together to form a huge tower of Babel. The tower's spires were getting higher and higher, and had already touched the highest secrets of the law. This allowed everyone to use this tower of Babel to find a stable path to the gods.

Ji Xun walked up step by step.

The serious-looking high priest Nan Jing had been waiting for a long time.

On the tray held by the lady-in-waiting beside him was the [Crown of Thorns], which represents royal power.

Nan Jing also sang a blessing: "Great King JOKER, under the witness of the gods of the Kashi civilization, under the gaze of the spirits of the ancestors, and in the prayers of hundreds of millions of subjects, you have taken on the burden of the empire and carried the expectations of hundreds of millions of people. You are kind, just, merciful, tolerant, and wise. Your good name will spread to every corner of the world. May you have a wise and omniscient vision and almighty extraordinary abilities to lead us across the unknown darkness and greet the dawn. Your honorable name will be forever engraved in the chapters of history. As the representative of light and hope, you will establish a great new Tarun Empire and bring miracles to the world."

A congratulatory speech is more than just a formality.

It is an important part of the ceremony.

It can be understood that this is a blessing for making a wish to the origin of the plane.

What is said is the halo bestowed upon the emperor.

Ji Xun felt it very clearly, that as Nan Jing spoke his blessing, a mysterious blessing power was bestowed upon him.

He was recognized by the origin of the plane.

The royal destiny on his body was like a blooming sun, making people more and more afraid to look directly at it. After reciting the blessing, Nanjing solemnly picked up the crown on the tray with both hands.

Ji Xun bent slightly with his chest protector on, and felt an indescribable pressure on his head.

It is the supreme royal power and majesty, but also a heavy responsibility and destiny.
The moment the crown was placed on his head, Ji Xun's eyes sparkled with brilliance, and the laws of royal power in his eyes were clearer than ever!
At that moment, with the blessing of the mysterious power, he saw the world as seen by gods.

It is a kind of upgrading and transformation that controls everything and commands billions of lives.

The status is improved from demigod to true god!
It was as if the existing royal law was being reshaped by some mysterious rules, condensing into a new and stable form.

“Is this what it means to condense the Godhead?”

Ji Xun suddenly realized.

Because the divine fire was ignited, he was able to clearly describe the changes in his body that he felt in his sea of ​​consciousness at this moment.

It feels like a pile of loose sand is broken into carbon elements and then rearranged to become indestructible diamond!

This mysterious power of attraction is brought by the royal ritual.

No wonder a ninth-rank card master needs a grand promotion ceremony. This feeling of being carried away by an external force is probably incomparable even if one practices hard for tens of millions of years.

It is not an exaggeration to say that as long as Ji Xun can stay on the throne for a while longer, he will really be able to condense the royal godhood!
Become a god!

The people around him obviously noticed the changes in Ji Xun. The mysterious feeling that was impossible to look at and describe made everyone vaguely realize what was happening, and their eyes were filled with inexplicable anticipation.

However, this feeling of being the center of attention did not last long and was suddenly interrupted!

"Ten Laws of Kingship. Law Nine: The Gallows of Rebels!"

It seemed as if someone was heard chanting a spell in the dark, before anyone could understand what was happening.

Everyone watched as a huge shadow of a gallows appeared behind Ji Xun.

At the same time, a noose was put around Ji Xun's neck!

Nan Jing, who was standing aside, also frowned as he watched, because the gallows that appeared without warning was not the power of any law at all and could not be stopped at all.

The person who was hit by Ji Xun's spell felt it even more strongly.

The moment he was hit, he was imprisoned on the spot by a mysterious force, and the noose around his neck shrank rapidly, as if it wanted to suck out his soul.

Single-target control + killing is almost a fatal move.

However, Ji Xun was not in a hurry at all. Instead, he raised his mouth slightly and made a judgment in his mind: "The power of rules? Or it is the [Royal Power Orb] that strengthens the royal power rules."

Thinking of this, he suddenly turned his head and looked at a residential building two blocks away. He saw the old man with a white beard who cast a spell and muttered, "Oh, I really caught a big fish!"

Possessing the royal destiny, one can also use the [Royal Orb].

Then the identity of the attacker is obvious. It can only be the Pope of the Holy See, Pope Pollante A. Russell.

This is the highest-ranking dragonborn in the Holy See.

Ji Xun was surprised because when he saw this guy, he knew that he had waited for the "richest" unit among the defeated army.

The Holy See has ruled the southern continent for more than 100,000 years and has plundered countless treasures.

This is not something that the three major royal families can compare with.

We are escaping to the Old World, so we must take all the good things with us, right?
At the same time, the position of the Pope is equivalent to that of the emperor among humans, and he also carries the last bit of dynastic luck of the Holy See!

This will be a great tonic for Ji Xun and his "New Tarun Empire"!

"There are assassins!"

"Protect Your Majesty!"

"."

The moment the gallows appeared, the entire palace was in an uproar.

A Pope who is infinitely close to godhood uses the royal relic to launch a sneak attack. An ordinary ninth-order person cannot withstand it.

If Ji Xun had not comprehended the power of rules, he might have really died in this sneak attack just now.

It can be seen that the other party wants to end the battle quickly.

But Ji Xun was well prepared.

Since he has already deduced that there is an enemy named Qin Ru, if it were him, he would definitely launch a sneak attack the moment he is successfully crowned.

In addition to having the highest chance of success, it can also destroy the luck of the New Tarun Empire and steal it for itself.

From this point of view, it is not surprising that the person who launched the sneak attack was Pope Polarante.

But Ji Xun was not in a hurry to take action.

Qin Rushi was already holding a round shield and a broadsword, and rushed forward as a Valkyrie.

She is the strongest fighting force known to the enemy. Only when she takes action can the hidden enemies act with peace of mind.

Before her, a middle-aged man with a beard appeared downstairs of a small building not far away. It was Xie Guozhong.

The Pope's strength is half a step to god level, and not everyone can contend with him.

[K of Clubs - Pope] is not only proficient in the tyrannical laws of kingship, but also in the laws of order.

These two methods combined can almost restrain all extraordinary means.

However, Xie Guozhong is a card master who follows the [6 Order] path, so his ability will not be too limited when facing the Pope.

What's more, they have fought each other before.

In a blink of an eye, the three of them were fighting fiercely.

At the same time, many masters of the Holy See wearing white robes appeared in the city. Their goal was clear: to go for the airship.

Not only do they have to rob, but they also have to kill the craftsmen, destroy the shipyards, and cut off the connection between the Old Continent and the South Continent.

This is the only way to stop the pursuers of the Sun Cult.

But this was originally a bait set by Ji Xun and the others.

Before those guys could cause any damage, the experts who had been lying in ambush took action together.

But it is obvious that the defeated army of the Holy See is very strong and numerous.

At the same time as the riot broke out in the city, a loud dragon roar was heard outside the city.

Ji Xun was standing at the highest point in the city, and there were shadows on the city wall sharing his vision, so he could see the situation clearly at a glance.

In the refugee camp outside the city, countless strong men suddenly rose up.

In the distant mountains and forests, flying dragons and well-equipped knight legions also rushed out.

The Holy Dragon Knights, the Vatican Inquisition, the Ascetics, and the remaining elite members of the Red Dragon and Black Dragon royal families all showed up.

When Ji Xun saw this, he was not surprised, but smacked his lips and confirmed something: "There is no God level."

Just as expected, this was just a defeated army of dragonborn from the Holy See.

Dragons are arrogant by nature, let alone the Dragon God.

Even if they were defeated, they would not escape in a panic with these humans.

What's more, the dragons from the two camps of metallic dragons and colored dragons are fighting fiercely now. How could they possibly launch a surprise attack on a small country established by the natives of the Eastern Wilderness?

Of course, if it really happened, Ji Xun and the others were prepared.

Although they were a defeated army, the elite force of the Holy See led by Pope Polarante was also formidable.

Their army is powerful enough to defeat almost any human force in the southern continent.

The facts were pretty much as the people of the Holy See had expected. The flying dragons attacked the city, and with the help of both inside and outside forces, they broke through the southern city wall almost at once and poured into the city.

Seeing this, the generals of the New Tarun Empire finally reacted and called up the army to counterattack.

The huge city of Tenis was filled with war.

Judging from the situation, the new emperor's coronation ceremony is about to turn into a farce.

But Ji Xun was not panicked at all.

Instead, he looked at the elite troops of the Holy See pouring into the city with burning eyes.

The armor and equipment on these guys are all top quality.

In other words, this is the real elite!
And it wasn't just him. Senior executives like Chujiu, Nanjing, Katarina, and Dong Qi were not surprised at all. Instead, they had an inexplicable expectation.

Watching the enemy enter the city, Chujiu also took out a card with a black tower pattern and chanted a mysterious spell: "The eagle of Lanlingster is soaring in the rift of the endless abyss. On the ancient iron throne, the great Lord of Terror, the legendary King Augustus, has arrived. Necromancy, the Treasure House of the Ruins of Gods!"

In an instant, nine pillars of light suddenly appeared from various places on the walls surrounding the city of Tenis, forming a huge nine-pointed star formation in the sky that covered the entire city.

Ji Xun had previously obtained half of the Shenxu Treasure House in the Innocence City, and later he obtained the other half from the Royal Academy. This inherited treasure of the Talen Empire was finally restored.

It has also become the best means of group control at this moment.

Now that the enemy is here, we certainly can't let them run away.

Watching Chujiu take action, Katarina's eyes flashed with moonlight, and she also chuckled and chanted the spell: "Divine Art: The Moon Goddess' Infinite Dream!"

In an instant, a bright white moon appeared in the sky.

The moonlight illuminates the earth, and the vision becomes soft like a dream.

It was like entering a different dimension. The surrounding scenery changed and everyone had entered the special space of the Shenxu Treasure House.

Ji Xun grinned when he saw this.

If the enemy can't escape, then we'll just have to close the door and fight the dog.
