Chapter Ninety-Seven: A Looming Crisis

Chen Rui's expression was very serious, and he said!, L Early tomorrow morning, you will take the double flying light and go to the green leaf forest to stay for a while. ”

The Green Leaf Forest is a forest on the edge of the Xilang Mountains, and even a two-legged wyvern that "sails" in a straight line can only fly to it for several hours, so it is a relatively safe area.

Athena frowned, "What happened?"

That Lennon's strength was too terrifying, even if Chen Rui and Athena joined forces, there was no chance of winning, so he wanted to transfer Athena to a safe place first, and then try to deal with Lennon and Kulia without worries.

Before leaving, Pagliu had given him a small bottle of venom, the kind of poison that poisoned Sandru, which was not suitable for use at present, and when it was absolutely necessary, he had to use extraordinary means.

Danshi, if it is spread out like this, Athena will definitely not be willing to leave, Chen Rui thought for a moment: "You know that I have the inheritance of the great master, and this period of time is irregular and sleepy, this is the reason." Starting tomorrow, the inheritance of the Great Grandmaster will enter a critical juncture, and it cannot be disturbed by anyone, so I xiwang can you accompany me to the Green Leaf Forest. This matter is related to my life, so I must keep it secret, and I will say to the public that I am going out for a while, and the mine has all Gad and they are there, so it should be no problem. ”

Sure enough, when Athena heard that his life was at stake, she nodded without thinking about it: "Okay! I'll go with you." ”

Chen Rui made up a temporary reason: "No, you go there first to make some preparations for me in advance, I will go to a few places alone according to the requirements of the Great Grandmaster, and then come to meet you as soon as possible, if I don't come, you must not leave the Green Leaf Forest." ”

Although Athena felt that this reason for "preparing in advance" was a bit reluctant, this matter was related to Chen Rui's life, and immediately agreed without hesitation.

"But what will happen to the miners' food if we're gone?" Athena suddenly asked.

Chen Rui shook his head secretly: From the words of the thieves, I know that it is necessary to keep the miners to contain and paralyze Dark Moon City, there is not much danger for the time being, but he, the new mining officer, will attract the attention of the thieves, and if it is not good, it will also affect the miners.

At present, due to the relationship of the "ghost dragon", the thieves' attention has not had time to shift to the side of the mine, once the turmoil in the main mine is resolved or faded, I believe that the Red Devil thieves will definitely attack him, the mining officer. If there is a deliberate disappearance or fake death, not only can the miners restore temporary "safety", but they may also be surprisingly successful.

Seeing that Chen Rui was silent, Athena thought that he was a little dissatisfied and hurriedly said: "That's it, I'll go early tomorrow morning to hunt more prey for them, and then I'll go to the green leaf forest to prepare the L cut you need, okay?"

Athena's bright eyes scorched in the darkness, Chen Rui couldn't bear to refuse, and nodded.

"Athena ......"

"En......"

Chen Rui finally found Athena's uncomfortable appearance, to be honest, he was a big man, and he got into a girl's tent in the middle of the night, although the situation was urgent, it did make people suspicious. Now that the yijing that should be said is finished, do you still have to stay here with a cheeky face...... Say something that shouldn't be said?

Actually, you really have to be cheeky...... It's not impossible, it's just that the current time is very tight, and Araux's war contract is imminent, and an even more terrible "lazy" royal Lennon has popped up, and the slightest negligence will make it difficult to save his life. I'll talk about the rest in a month.

It's your own, it will be your own after all, and you can't run away.

Chen Rui exchanged four bottles of Eternal Black Elixir and handed them to Athena.

"Drink these four potions and remember them, and no matter what happens, you can't tell anyone. ”

Medicine is good medicine, and yes, but there seems to be something wrong with the wording: no matter what happens?

Athena nodded cooperatively.

If it's a little Lori, I'll definitely suspect that it's "somehow" medicine, which may be ...... Weishenme Alice is Alice, Athena is Athena.

Chen Rui didn't dare to stay any longer, and hurriedly returned to the tent on the mountain.

Seeing Chen Rui's hurried escape, Athena Zhou was still determined to "shoot" him out with a sword, and now his apprehension and nervousness were replaced by a strange slight dissatisfaction: Hmph, a man who has no courage!

Women, indeed, are the most contradictory creatures.

A woman of contradiction gently touched the fire on her cheeks, picked up a bottle of potion on the ground, unplugged it, and drank it. Early the next morning, Athena rushed to the tent on the top of the mountain and called Chen Rui in her sleeping bag. ..., "What kind of potion did you give me last night?"

Looking at Athena's surprised and excited appearance, Chen Rui smiled slightly, happiness is indeed multiplication, two people are happier than one person, but unfortunately, it is not yet possible to let more people know this secret.

Chen Rui pointed his head: "My great grandmaster here, but he is a dual master of making instruments and potions, the treasure obtained by his inheritance, guess what it is?"

Although Yijing was mentally prepared, after Athena received Chen Rui's confirmation, she still couldn't suppress the shock in her heart: "Could it be that zhende is an eternal ......?"

"You have only absorbed a part of the medicinal power at present, and in the future, with the essence of Liliang, the medicinal effect will gradually spread, and after it is completely absorbed, there will be a resonance and improve your strength again. Chen Rui said that it was naturally empirical, but he then solemnly warned: "This matter is too important, not only my life and death, but also the survival of the dark moon, you must not reveal it to anyone, including Alice and Princess Thea." 、.

Athena naturally knew how much shock the appearance of the black potion would cause in the demon world, and she also knew how precious the black potion was, in a sense, it even surpassed the Devil Fruit, and this human actually took it all out for her to drink without hesitation, and it was four bottles!

Athena's red eyes looked at Chen Rui deeply, drew her sword, and said, "I, Athena Wells, swear in the name of the family that I will never tell anyone about these potions!"

Actually, there is another paragraph behind this vow, but she hides it in her heart.

Although it is very difficult to get a woman to keep a secret, Athena should be credible, as can be seen from the "poisoning" incident

"I'm going hunting first. Although there were many questions to ask, Athena remembered the promise of that month, didn't say much, rode the bipedal wyvern, and took off.

Chen Rui called Gade to say that there was something wrong with his cultivation of poison, and he might have to be escorted back to Darkmoon City by Athena or find a place to recuperate, and the mining office entrusted him to take care of it.

Gade has long been dissatisfied with Chen Rui, the new human mining officer in addition to scraping a call on the first day of coming to the mine and making a broth, and then has been hiding in the tent to "practice poison arts" Miss Athena is busy working, although she said that she was entrusted by the mine officer, anyone with a discerning eye can see that it is Miss Athena who is covering up for an irresponsible mining officer.

Now Chen Rui proposed to leave the well with A Xifeng for a period of time, which was in Gade's arms, and he was full of promises.

Chen Rui waited for Athena's return in the tent while transforming the waste ore he had obtained last night. The quality of the crystals on these waste mines is different, and the amount of aura obtained is also different, the top layer provides the most aura, and the one obtained last night is obviously inferior, it seems to be related to the year, the more "fresh" the aura, the less it is estimated that it will go down, and so on.

So, how did this crystal come about? Four hundred years ago, this kind of waste ore also appeared in the underground demonic beast, could it be related to some special demonic beast?

Last night's four bottles of black potion cost 400,000 aura, but it was not a pity to spend it on Athena's body, not to mention that there were still 320,000 at present, plus a warehouse of waste ore.

Suddenly, there was a commotion at the bottom of the mountain, and Chen Rui immediately withdrew from the super system, as long as he didn't enter the training ground, he could still maintain a certain limit of perception of the outside world.

A miner came up in a panic and reported: "Oh no, Master Mine, the people of the Red Devil Thieves are here!"

Chen Rui was taken aback, could it be that Lennon did not keep his promise, but instead helped the Red Devil thieves to make a plan and deduce all the way to the head of the mine? But this is too fast!

Now that Athena has not returned, it is impossible for her to escape alone, so she has to improvise.

Chen did not hesitate, opened the eye of analysis, instructed Meng Xuan to be ready to see the signal at any time, and let Di Di, who only returned in the early morning, hide in the tent, and then walked down the mountain.

In front of the mine, a large group of thieves blocked the exit, the thieves were dressed in leather armor, armed with weapons, and the momentum was menacing, judging from the formation, it was by no means an ordinary rabble. The miners trembled with fright, and concentrated in a trap, the only thing they could hold on to was the pickaxe in their hands, and the faces of the mine guards also changed greatly.

A tall and strong demon walked out and glanced at the miners with disdain: "Lord Ben is Kulia of the Red Devil Thieves Regiment, who is the new mining officer, come out for me!"

The miners didn't dare to speak up for a while, and Kulia sneered: "I'll give him a minute, and if he doesn't come out, I'll kill ten people first, and then twenty more until I kill all of you! ”

This threat made the miners agitated, and Qi Qi set his eyes on Chen Rui, who was beside Gade.

Chen Rui whispered to Gade...... "Tell Miss to wait for ......me at the agreed place", took a deep breath, and walked out slowly.

"I am. ”

"You're a human, right?" Kulia looked at Chen Rui, who was nervous, and recklessly daxiao: "It seems that there is no one in the Dark Moon Territory, and he actually sent such an incompetent waste to be a mining officer!"

This made many miners bow their heads in shame, and a few dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, although this mine officer did not have liliang, but never mandated any tasks, and brought food to fill everyone's stomachs, which was a good head.

Chen Rui's eyes were sharp, and he saw that the row of thieves in front of him Yijing took out a bow and aimed it at him, thinking that he was still afraid of his "poison technique", as long as Kulia gave an order, he would definitely shoot him on the spot.

Chen Rui is not afraid of these bows and arrows, and the Eye of Analysis shows that Kulia's comprehensive strength is. level, the strength should at least be the middle of the high-level demon, but what Chen Rui fears the most is not Kulia, but that mysterious Lennon, and the most terrible thing is that after the "Dark Will" uses a teleportation, it will take twenty-four hours to recover Liliang and use it again!

"Our Red Devil Thieves Group wants to invite the Mine Officer to the station, I wonder if the Lord can appreciate his face?" Kusunya called the Lord in his mouth, but his tone was undisguised contempt, just waiting for Chen Rui to say ......the word "no", and immediately ordered to shoot with arrows.

Seeing that the human mining officer hesitated for a while, he actually nodded and said, "I'll go with you, but you can't hurt these subordinates of mine." ”

As soon as these words came out, the miners felt ashamed again, and even Gade was shocked.

"Oh" Kulia was slightly surprised, and secretly thought that the credit for catching alive should be greater, anyway, as long as people are in their hands, life and death are not arbitrary?

Kulia was about to order his subordinates to take Chen Rui away, when he heard a lazy voice sound: "Wait!"
