Chapter 39: Siege and Killing

There are not many pedestrians in the black market.

Ji Xun walked out of the shop and onto the street without any panic in his steps.

He knew very well that the other party did not know his appearance. Even if his position was divined using a mysterious spell, he might not be able to immediately determine who he was in the crowd!

Looking around, Ji Xun soon saw some men in suits appearing on the street with quick steps and looking around the crowd.

There are them all over the streets.

Looking at the posture, it was already an ambush circle that had been prepared.

"There should be people squatting in the crowded places in the city."

Ji Xun realized that his luck in being discovered was only one of them, and the most important thing was that the enemy had cast a wide net.

It is not surprising that the Governor Cao family has this ability.

At the same time, he immediately judged something: "So, the mysterious spell just now should have a release range..."

I came to the Anyu Street Black Market today simply on a whim, and I just came here not long ago.

But since these people have formed an encirclement in such a short period of time, they have obviously been ambush here for a long time.

In other words, he was a rabbit that hit a tree stump.

And since he was not caught elsewhere, there is a high probability that the mysterious spell has a casting range.

So as long as you leave Dark Rain Street, you should be able to escape the pursuit.

But now it seems that it is difficult.

Many thoughts flashed through Ji Xun's mind. He did not walk towards the main road leaving the street, but towards the dark alleys.

As he expected, the men in suits didn't know which one was the target, and they were all still looking around in the crowd.

Ji Xun's leisurely walking did not attract anyone's attention.

Originally, as long as he walked into the darkness and used the shadows to sneak around, he would most likely be able to escape.

However, at this time, something strange happened suddenly.

.......

Suddenly, among the crowd, Ji Xun saw a white-haired old woman wearing a black robe. This person's aura was obviously different from the people around her, like a nagging goddess.

The moment her eyes passed by, the old woman also saw him, and her expression changed instantly.

"Discovered!"

Ji Xun keenly captured the details of the old woman's pupils shrinking, and immediately knew that he had been discovered.

He did not wait for the other party to react and struck decisively first.

Ji Xun put his hands on his waist and heard the gunshot almost as he drew the gun.

As fast as lightning!

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Two gunshots rang out at the same time, and the old woman just raised her hand and pointed: "That's him!"

But at this moment, the two mercenaries in the crowd who had been shot in the eyebrows fell down.

Although ordinary armor-piercing bullets are difficult to kill a curse card master, for a card master apprentice, hitting the head is equally fatal!

These two shots were so decisive that the two men did not know where the bullets came from until they died.

Ji Xun accurately killed the two surrounding mercenaries with two shots, and immediately there was a gap in the encirclement.

But at the same time, the four spell card masters beside the old woman also reacted immediately.

The red-haired woman reacted very quickly. She raised her hand and "swish" and "swish" several cards shot through the crowd and landed on the ground in front of Ji Xun in the blink of an eye.

I felt my feet suddenly go soft, as if I had stepped on quicksand, and my body instantly lost its balance.

"[Quicksand Technique]!"

Ji Xun saw this, with a stern look on his face, and a sneer on his lips: The orders given to these guys were to keep them alive.

This method only traps people, not kills them.

This is the biggest benefit!

I can't exert any force under my feet, and I'm about to be trapped.

But where was he unprepared?

Ji Xun raised his hand and activated the mechanical sleeve arrow hidden in his arm towards the iron fence on the second floor not far away.

With a "swish" sound, an extremely thin steel wire popped out at high speed and was instantly fastened to the iron railing. When the trigger was pulled again, the mechanical device in the sleeve rebounded quickly, and a traction force suddenly pulled Ji Xun out.

, leaving the floor tiles that had turned into quicksand.

Ever since he last saw Chujiu using that kind of mechanical sleeve arrow to escape, Ji Xun had arranged it for himself.

When used properly, this thing is definitely a life-saving tool.

In mid-air, Ji Xun was not idle, turned around and fired a shot.

With a "bang" sound, bullets ejected from the muzzle of the gun.

At this moment, it was as if time slowed down ten times. The bullet sent a string of air waves in the air and hit the red-haired woman in the head.

How fast are bullets?

Without prejudgment, this is simply not something that a physically weak spell card master can avoid.

But the red-haired woman didn't have any intention of avoiding it. There was only indifference in her crystal eyes, because the threat of bullets to official spell card masters was very limited.

She instantly surged with spell power and watched as the bullet stopped in the air a foot away from her.

Taking a closer look, what blocked the bullet was a light yellow magical light shield.

But then, the red-haired woman's eyes suddenly changed, because she saw the second bullet in her eyes, and her heart became cold: "[Annihilation Demon Bullet]!"

Only then did she realize that the guy just fired not one shot, but two shots!

Only a gunman with extremely high marksmanship skills can turn the reaction force of the bullet out of the chamber into a secondary firing force and fire two shots in a very short period of time.

And because the firing speed was so fast, it only sounded like a gunshot.

This is Advanced Firearms Specialization!

The bullets obviously went faster than the senses, and the two bullets hit the same point on the magic shield.

The incantation on the black bullet instantly corroded the shield, and it went in with a "whoosh" sound.

Although the spell shield is strong, like human breathing, it is not always the strongest defense. Instead, it requires the spell card master to actively concentrate the spell power in a certain direction to achieve the strongest defense effect.

After a hit, the vibration caused by the shock wave will greatly reduce the stability of the shield.

Another point is that the active release of the mantra shield is directly related to people's subjective consciousness, and the subjective strength of picking up cotton and picking up a piece of iron are completely different.

These two shots are also very confusing.

One shot is a cover-up, but the second shot is the hidden murderous intent!

As expected, the [Annihilation Bomb] easily broke through the shield, hitting the red-haired woman on the forehead with a "clang" sound.

Blood flowed.

But it didn't penetrate.

The red-haired woman's face darkened: She was actually injured? Was she injured by an apprentice?

A shield in his hand shattered at the same time.

Just by meeting each other, the members of the Blackwater Mercenary Group immediately realized how difficult their target was.

.......

"Sure enough, it's not that easy to kill..."

Ji Xun looked at the red-haired woman standing there. Although her head was bleeding, she was not dead.

I secretly thought it was a pity.

I really want to say that the magic spell card master is definitely the most difficult to deal with. I wanted to try to catch the enemy unaware of his level of spear skills and catch him by surprise.

Facts have proved that in the face of absolute strength, skills and equipment can only make up for the gap.

But it's not completely useless.

At least it stopped this woman from continuing to draw cards and fight.

enough.

The shooting took only a moment, but the enemies were obviously experienced mercenaries.

Ji Xun fired decisively and only had a slight advantage.

But the other party is not the same person!

The moment he fired, the man in a ranger uniform also drew his gun and fired.

When Ji Xun saw it, his body was pulled in mid-air by the steel cable and he couldn't escape.

Seeing that the trajectory of his landing was about to coincide with the trajectory of the gun's muzzle, he seemed to have predicted it and decisively cut off the wire. His body immediately stopped pulling forward and began to fall!

And almost at the same time as it fell, there was a "clang" and fire splashed out, and a bullet hit the railing two feet away.

If he hadn't given up the tightrope decisively just now, this shot would have hit his thigh.

Although firearms are convenient, they are also powerful.

But the biggest disadvantage is that the probability of prediction is very high.

Within a short distance, the bullet trajectory is almost straight and can only be fired from the muzzle.

So from the moment the target draws the gun to pulling the trigger, as long as you have enough experience, there are many opportunities to predict.

Advanced firearms proficiency not only refers to shooting skills, but also the understanding of marksmanship!

Even from the intention of the enemy's gaze, the trajectory of the projectile can be guessed.

When Ji Xun fired just now, he had already captured the action of the ranger drawing his gun out of the corner of his eye. At that time, he had actually predicted that the guy's ballistic impact point would be his thigh.

The opponent's gun skills are not bad either, at least to the level of an intermediate specialist.

If it weren't for pre-judgment, just based on his neurological reaction, Ji Xun himself would have been shot.

.......

"Failed?"

Seeing this scene, the ranger who fired the shot was obviously a bit incredulous.

He never expected that a card master apprentice could avoid his shot.

What a superb gun skill!

Even if it was an enemy, the ranger secretly exclaimed.

Just this accurate prediction made him no longer underestimate him.

A card master apprentice was able to injure one person in the face of their team's encirclement tactics, and even avoided his own shooting.

This is the first time in so many years.

Also the only one.

However, what surprised those people even more was what came next!

As soon as Ji Xungang landed, he showed no superiority at all and jumped towards the platform behind him.

Jumped off a cliff!

...

The buildings in Innocence City are all very tall, and they are built against the mountains, so there are cliffs with high drops everywhere in the city.

The black market is here on Anyu Street, not just because the place is remote. It is also because the terrain here is special and extremely complex. In case of an accident, the merchants and customers in the black market have no chance of being surrounded.

On one side of Anyu Street is a building cliff with a drop of tens of meters.

Ji Xun just chose to break out from this direction, and that was his original intention.

He knew very well that there were several official spell card masters among the enemy, and they had already planned it.

Not to mention being invincible, even escaping would be impossible.

That's why I jumped off the cliff decisively.

Seeing this, the four-person team of the Black Water Regiment were all stunned.

This guy didn’t hesitate to jump off a cliff?

Normally, when looking at a cliff, humans will instinctively stop and observe to confirm how to exert force and where to land.

But this guy didn't even look at it and jumped right away?

Are you being forced into a panic?

But they knew that Ji Xun had carefully observed the surrounding terrain before entering Anyu Street.

Several escape routes have even been planned.

At this moment, he already had the entire complex street scene in his mind like a 3D drawing. Even if he didn't look at it, he knew exactly where he would land if he jumped.

This is a jump, not a busy note, but a long-term preparation.

...

Seeing this, the warrior captain shouted hurriedly: "Third brother, stick to that guy, don't let him escape!"

The target you have finally waited for is right in front of you, how can you let people escape?

The ranger's shot missed, and his reaction was extremely fast, without warning at all. The team's tacit understanding of Nian already let him know what to do. He slammed his feet on the ground, as fast as a ghost, and also jumped towards the cliff.

Go down.

A card master apprentice dares to jump, why don't I dare?

His ranger profession is the best at tracking!

It's impossible for the enemy to escape even if he jumps off a cliff!

However, just as he jumped out of the cliff, he suddenly saw the rapidly falling figure turning around and raising his gun, and the dark muzzle of the gun was aimed at him.

Almost as soon as he emerged, tongues of fire were already gushing out.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Two more shots.

So decisive!

At this time, the ranger was still flying in the air with the inertia of the dash, and had nowhere to draw on, so he was almost a target.

"Damn it, how can a card master apprentice have such superb marksmanship!"

The ranger cursed secretly in his heart.

The previous two shots could be said to be luck, but these two shots tested real skills.

There was no pre-move to aim and he fired directly, which meant that the guy predicted the exact location where he would jump off the cliff.

The ranger himself is also a gunsmith who is close to the advanced level of expertise. How can he not understand the basis for prediction?

The straight line between the two points is the shortest. If you want to catch up to your previous position and jump off the cliff, this point is the closest. It is not difficult to predict this point, but what is difficult is that in such a situation, the guy did not panic at all.

, predict and shoot at the right time?

The terror of this consciousness is not much worse than that of a gun master!

I thought I had overestimated it, but unexpectedly I underestimated it.

But after all, he is a professional ranger who is a formal spell card master. Thoughts flashed through his mind, and the spell spirit surged all over his body. His feet suddenly stepped on the air, and his body actually used the force in the air to narrowly avoid the two shots.

The ranger flipped in the air, staring at the target that was about to land, feeling a chill.

...

"What a high agility attribute..."

Seeing that his two shots missed, Ji Xun's expression did not change at all.

He hadn't been able to kill the magic spell card master before, so he didn't expect the gun to be able to kill the assassin spell card master with extremely high physical agility.

The bullet can stop the enemy for a moment, which is enough.

After all, if he didn't shoot, the ranger could have jumped down from a height of more than 20 meters and caught himself in mid-air.

Although his body stats have skyrocketed, the gap between him and the assassin spell card master is still very large.

What's more, if Ji Xun didn't want to break his leg, he still needed a buffer when he landed. He shot the wire from his sleeve again, and pulled it in the air to slow down his fall.

For experts, this amount of time can completely make up for the time difference from jumping off the cliff to catch up, but it was only because of the two shots just now that the gap widened again.

In Ji Xun's field of vision, behind the ranger, the warrior captain and a dozen mercenaries also jumped down from the cliff.

When he saw this, he decisively dropped a few grenades where he landed, turned around and ran away.

Under the platform where he landed, there was another dark cliff, and Ji Xun jumped down again without hesitation.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Three grenades exploded on the platform, and the firelight instantly illuminated the dark surroundings.

Several figures were blown away, but the captain and several other mercenaries also rushed out of the fire.

They also didn't hesitate and jumped down after Ji Xun.

If everyone falls by free fall, Ji Xun is not afraid.

But those guys at the back obviously have the ability to accelerate their fall in the air, which is very troublesome.

Just two or three breaths after this second cliff jump, the ranger was as fast as a ghost, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of him almost face to face!

There is no way to draw strength in mid-air, not even a grip point for ejecting the steel cable.

Ji Xun could almost see the cold look in the enemy's eyes a few meters away, as if to say: I've got you!

However, what the ranger didn't expect was that he was about to catch someone. When their eyes met, he didn't see even a trace of panic in the target's eyes?

At this moment of doubt, a sinister smile flashed across Ji Xun's eyes, and he suddenly pulled off a drawstring on his chest.

When the ranger saw this, his pupils shrank suddenly: "Shock bomb!"

He never expected that this guy would explode the shock bomb directly on his body.

Doesn’t this guy want to live?!

Even though shock bombs are usually not fatal, at such a close distance, wouldn't an apprentice be looking for death?

"Bang!"

Visible overpressure air exploded between the two of them. Although Ji Xun was wearing bulletproof plates, even so, the explosion at close range made his chest feel as if he had been hit by a train head-on. His energy and blood surged, and he fainted instantly.

.

But with this force, his whole body accelerated and fell into the darkness like a cannonball.

Seeing the explosion coming, the ranger instinctively made a defensive posture, but was also knocked backwards by the blast bomb.

Seeing that the target was far away, the assassin flew backwards and was unable to stop him. He could only pull the launcher towards the figure flying backwards, and with a "pop", a metal mesh bag was directed towards the figure that was being exploded.

The figure shot away.

.......

"Crash~" the sound of falling water sounded.

The target fell into the underground river and lost its trace.

Only then did everyone realize that from the very beginning, the guy didn't choose to jump off the cliff out of panic, but just to jump into the dark river.

This was also the only way they could think of for a card master apprentice to escape from the siege.

The warrior captain looked at the foggy underground river with gloomy eyes.

I thought that he was just a card master apprentice. As long as he dared to appear on Dark Rain Street, he would never be able to escape from their team.

But the facts are right in front of us.

Not just escaped.

He even slapped them hard on the face.

Now that I think about it, these mercenaries discovered it.

From the beginning, the guy showed almost inhuman calmness and accurate judgment.

In this short one-minute intense pursuit, every shot the guy fired was just right, buying himself precious time to escape. Every step of his escape seemed to have been carefully calculated, and he fell into the trap of perhaps the only person who could escape.

That step of escaping hope.

It wasn't until the end, when they saw the guy pulling a detonating bomb close to his face, that the Black Water Group realized that this was not only a thoughtful guy, but he also had a kind of madness that ordinary people don't have.

Even if the shock bomb doesn't shock him to death, he will most likely faint. Now that he is restrained by the iron net, can he still survive if he falls into the water? Are you betting that the river water can choke you and wake you up?

This guy really didn't hesitate at all to seek a chance of survival even though he was dying?

If there was even a trace of hesitation or a mistake in the entire escape process, he would be caught!

But that guy didn't!

Not even once!

Shooting, jumping off cliffs, blasting bombs, accurately falling into the water.

There was not a single superfluous movement in the whole process, no mistakes!

...

The fog has sunk to the surface of the river, and visibility is less than two meters. Even with a flare, you can only see a thick fog on the river.

The captain's face turned extremely dark, and he shouted loudly: "Get into the water! No matter what, we must find this person!"

With that said, he took off his mechanical equipment and jumped down first.

If they really let the target escape, they can already think of their own ending.
