Catherine's own expression was also a little surprised, although Nirvana can make people greatly advanced, but the biggest effect is to induce qualitative changes in physique and soul, so that the fixed foundation can make a big leap, and it can break through the bottleneck more conveniently, unexpectedly, this time it was directly promoted to the national level.

This time, Nirvana was originally launched with the awareness of death, but the fifth Nirvana, which had caused countless Asmodean royal geniuses to fall, was unexpectedly smooth. Of course, this "smoothness" actually happened after Chen Rui disregarded life and death to trigger his own nirvana fire into her body, although I don't know the specific reason, but it is certain that if there is no man, she will be like countless ancestors, in the "fire" ashes.

"Congratulations. ”

Seeing Chen Rui's smile, the empress thought of the lingering confrontation between the two not long ago, her cheeks couldn't help but flush, she moved her gaze to the magic house behind, and with a wave of her hand, she put it away in the air.

"Uh......" The voices of the two sounded at the same time.

"You speak first. Again, in unison.

At this time, the two of them were silent, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while, completely lacking the indulgence and inference when they met naked before.

"Let me say it first," Catherine took the lead in breaking the deadlock, looking into Chen Rui's eyes, "There is no need to beat around the bush between us, I just ask, will you go back with me?"

This sentence seems to be easy to answer, but Chen Rui understands what she means, it is a multiple-choice question.

Commonplace multiple-choice questions.

If it was before, Chen Rui would have given her an answer without much hesitation, but after experiencing this incident, he could no longer be decisive, and fell into extreme contradictions for a while.

"I know it's going to be hard for you to choose, but I don't have a choice. Catherine sighed, "Others are not a problem, but me and her, you can only choose one." ”

As the supreme ruler, whether it is Sia or Catherine, the relationship with each other can only be enemies, and cannot be true friends, as long as the time and conditions permit, the two will meet each other mercilessly.

Seeing Chen Rui's appearance of bowing his head and not speaking, Catherine lowered her gaze: "This Nirvana has promoted me to the national level, as long as I completely control the immortal puppet, even if it is Lei Chan, I can't help me." The strength of the Shadow Empire is greater than that of the Fallen Angel Empire, I can give you what she can give you, and I can give you what she can't give you. Such stakes and conditions may turn you off, but I am telling the truth, and besides, between you and me...... It's not a benefit, it's not a deal. ”

"I understand. Chen Rui raised his head, "But I can't go with you, I have to rush to the Vallock Fortress, because Xia is facing the six million elites of the Bloody Empire there, and she is in a very dangerous situation." If it were you, I would have rushed there without hesitation. ”

"This answer is nothing more than evasion or self-deception," Catherine shook her head and looked at him deeply, "What if I am the one who leads the six million elites? Even if this time I join forces with her for the good of the Empire, what about the next time? You know very well in your heart that she and I ...... It's not just ourselves, sooner or later we will meet on the battlefield, and sooner or later we will have to fight to the death!"

Chen Rui was silent for a while, and said with a wry smile: "I regret it now." I regret that the first time I appeared was not in the Shadow Imperial Capital but in the Dark Moon Territory, I regret that I didn't go to the Shadow Empire to find you after that time in the Night Wetland, and I regret that I pretended to be dead and fled in Crystal Valley...... If we had been a little more assertive, or hadn't been so much, we would both be happy by now. ”

"It turns out that we have missed so many times......" Catherine's eyes flashed with a faint sadness, "It's a pity that if we missed it, we missed it...... I think I already know your choice. ”

"Catherine, I ......"

"You don't need to say it, this is the first time I zuihou gave you a choice. As soon as Catherine's words fell, she appeared in front of him in an instant, stretched out her hand, Chen Rui's eyelids jumped slightly, and she didn't move.

Catherine's hand gently caressed Chen Rui's face, as if caressing something most precious, her star-like eyes quickly covered with a faint mist, and finally she couldn't hold it back, and a crystal tear slowly slipped down her face.

Chen Rui's heart trembled, and he wanted to hold her hand, but he shook it empty, and that warm hand turned into an unattainable phantom.

Almost like a shadow, Catherine's figure had receded into the distance.

"Forget me. ”

After saying this, there was already a veil on her face, and in the blink of an eye, the figure turned into a streamer of light, shooting towards the air, like a meteor that would not return.

There is no coercion, detention or assassination, just three simple words.

Because here, she thinks of herself more as Christina, as Isis, as the woman who loves him, than as Catherine the Great, the ruler of the empire.

The ・・・・・・ between you and me is not a benefit, let alone a transaction.

"Don't forget me. ”

"Forget me. ”

Chen Rui's eyes were already red, he clenched his fists, and shouted, "Catherine!"

This call made the streamer faster, and the wet marks on the veil became larger and larger, and even the rapid flight could not be blown dry.

"Two years!

The man's screams were faintly heard behind her, but Catherine did not look back, letting the tears flow out, for after leaving this place, all her tears and feelings would be closed. Because she's Catherine Asmodeus, the Emperor of Shadows.

The knuckles of Chen Rui's clenched fist have turned white-liliang! He needs a stronger liliang! Not only his personal hard power, but also the soft power that influences and controls the entire demon world!

"Catherine, wait for me. A flash of blue light appeared in the void, Chen Rui looked back at the direction where the streamer disappeared and whispered, and the whole person disappeared into the light gate.

Time passed.

Although the death of the Grand Prince Aleus had a considerable impact on the morale of the Bloody Army, Gustav and Tevez, led by Gustav and Tevez, quickly regained their morale and continued their onslaught on the Valloch Fortress.

In the fierce offensive and defensive battles, the two sides used almost all means, and the Vallock fortress was shattered several times, but it always stood still, and the two sides were at a stalemate for a while, and fell into a tug-of-war.

Tevez was much more patient and clever than Alius, making full use of his advantages in numbers and combat power to force the Vallock Fortress to fight a war of attrition.

After several rounds of attack and defense, the military strength and material consumption of the Vallock Fortress was quite large, and several times it even fell into an extremely dangerous situation, and Agulie's "mission" to the Shadow Empire still did not respond, and the military spirit of the Fallen Angel Empire inevitably began to waver, including many generals, pinned their hopes on the "secret weapon" mentioned by Xia.

If this development continues, then the Vallock Fortress is afraid that it will be difficult to withstand the next round of enemy attacks, and now the army of the Fallen Angel Empire is relying on the danger of geography to maintain a stalemate with the bloody army, if it is a duel in an ordinary combat environment, the army of the Fallen Angel Empire is by no means the opponent of the bloody elite.

Once the Vallock Fortress is lost and the territory of Bailing is captured, the Fallen Angel Imperial Capital will be equal to the middle gate being opened, and the bloody army will drive straight into the entire empire.

In this case, Xia finally couldn't stay silent and gritted her teeth and made a killer move.

This killer weapon is called the Poison Thunderbolt, and the firing device is a relatively ordinary catapult, except that the ammunition is not a boulder coated with magic fuel, but a special round stone projectile.

When the stone projectile hits the ground, it will burst like a normal fire meteor, but instead of the stone, it will burst with a spreading poisonous gas.

The toxins contained in this poisonous gas are by no means simple, Aldas was developed by borrowing from the toxins of Pagliu, which is a hundred times more violent than the toxins contained in the bursting arrows fired by the powerful ballista, once the terrible poisonous gas spreads, the soldiers within the range will be corrosively damaged, and ordinary antidotes cannot be used to treat the symptoms at all.

Just like the magic crystal cannons, weapons and armor and other killing tools made by weaponry, pharmacy has finally become the dominant source of harvesting life on the battlefield, which is not only the helplessness of science, but also the helplessness of human nature.

As soon as this poisonous thunderbolt was unleashed, the bloody besieging army suffered huge losses, and for the next three days, no attack was launched.

On the fourth day, Teres finally made a move, which was also a killer shot.

The bloody army dispatched the Air Legion, and in addition to the two main legions of the Wind Dragon Legion and the Blood Lion Legion, a strange thing appeared in the air.

If Chen Rui was here, he would definitely exclaim: Airship!

That's right, it's an airship, and the power system is a magic crystal, which looks similar to the one used by the Dark Elemental Monarch of the Sea of Death.

There were hundreds of airships, and as soon as they appeared, they immediately showed terrible combat effectiveness, and the offensive nature of the airships was not to parachute, but to throw, and one by one magic bombs fell on the Vallock Fortress, so that the already dilapidated fortress was blown to pieces, and the nearby soldiers were either killed or injured.

Bows and arrows or catapults can't attack enemies from above, not even poison bolts. Due to the strength of the two bloody air legions protecting the airship, the air force of the fallen angels could not break through and destroy the airship, and the soldiers of the Vallock fortress could only be beaten passively, suffering heavy casualties, and most of the immovable poisonous thunderbolts and catapults were destroyed.

The Pagliu below couldn't hold it back, turned into a dragon and flew into the sky, rushing towards the group of airships.

This is not the first time that the poisonous dragon has appeared, the bloody demon has been prepared for a long time, and dozens of figures flew out and surrounded the poisonous dragon.

Since receiving the guidance of Augulas, Pagliu's strength has taken a big leap, and with the stimulation of Didiu, he has finally reached the level of SRR, and he is only one step away from becoming a country. However, the eyes of the poisonous dragon looked very solemn, because the strength of these people turned out to be all Demon Emperors, and at least ten of them were peak Demon Emperors!

At the same time, a large number of infantry and siege equipment began to appear in the sight of the defenders of the city wall, and it seemed that this time Terry was not only dispatching a secret weapon airship, but also using all his strength to defeat the defense of the fallen angel in one fell swoop.

In the fortress below, Xia and the others also realized that something was wrong, and one by one the figures rose into the air and flew into the sky.

The fiercest battle is about to begin, and this battle will be at stake for the survival of the Vallock Fortress.
