The army marched quickly for three days and finally reached the town of Lupin.

Luping Town was one of the largest towns in the Blue Melt Territory, the size of another medium-sized city of Chen Rui, and on the outskirts of the town, the Dark Moon Army encountered a blockaded army, totaling about three thousand people.

These troops were originally ordered by Lord Chandler to blockade the town of Lupin, where strange events occurred, and also set up a magic circle, which should have been issued under the control of Mousse.

Now the army has received Chandler's latest order to cooperate with the Darkmoon Army and investigate the secrets of Lupin.

The leader of the army is called Agras, a great demon with the strength of the early stage of the demon king, and he is quite nervous in the face of the overwhelming aura that Darkmoon's army and Athena faintly emanates.

Chen Rui asked, "What happened in Luping Town?"

Agras hurriedly replied: "That's the case, the residents of Lupin Town had various fights and bloodshed for some reason some time ago, and soon after, it was said that a huge bottomless pit appeared in the center of the town, and strange black gas continued to emerge from it, and the bodies of people wrapped in black gas would quickly wither, and Zuihou was only left with a pile of white bones. Some people tried to fill the hole or go down to explore, but all the explorers, including the Demon Emperor powerhouse Sotsong, who lived in seclusion in the town, were gone. The black gas of that pit takes the lives of some of its inhabitants every day. Many people fled outside the town because of this, but the lord claimed that these people were contaminated with an incurable toxin, and if they escaped, it would spread to all territories, so he ordered us to block the exits on all sides and forbid anyone from entering or leaving. Some of the inhabitants tried their best to escape or asked us for help, but we were forced to refuse their requests on the orders of the lord, and no one was seen escaping again......

Will there be a bottomless pit that eats people's black gas? What does this bloody conspiracy have to do with it? Chen Rui thought for a moment and asked again: "I got the news from Lord Chandler, is General Sumen coming this way?"

"Yes," Agras nodded, "General Sumen came here five days ago, with about a thousand men, and insisted on entering the town of Lupin, but I couldn't persuade him, but hundreds of soldiers went in with him. ”

Chen Rui groaned for a while, it seems that this Sumen's prestige in the army is quite high, even if the reputation of "rebellion" is outside, and Luping Town is obviously a dangerous place, there are still many people who are willing to follow.

"But...... The general has not yet returned, and I have sent a few soldiers to find out the news, but they have not returned. ”

Chen Rui frowned, thought for a moment, and said to Athena: "There is indeed a problem in this town, the situation inside is unknown now, and it is likely to contain a huge threat. I suggest that the army should not act rashly, but should first listen clearly before deciding on the next move. ”

Athena spoke, "That's right, I'll lead a team of people to investigate." ”

"No!" Chen Rui shook his head, "You are the commander of the legion, and you are also the heart and soul of the entire army, you can't easily get into danger, and it is not ruled out that there will be emergencies here, someone must preside over the overall situation, we stay, and we will ...... Go ahead, Lord Agulie. ”

The poisonous dragon wearing the cloak and Athena glanced at each other, and immediately understood what Chen Rui meant, the deliberately aggravated tone of "Agulie" in this sentence was Chen Rui himself, of course the poisonous dragon would not be idle, but followed secretly, one bright and one dark, and thoroughly investigated the secrets inside.

As for the outside of the town on Athena's side, it is relatively safe, and she herself has the strength of the Great Demon King, and there are also the elites of the Flame Light Army, so it shouldn't be a big problem.

Athena knew that Chen Rui's strength was far superior to her, and she couldn't drag her mind at this time, so she didn't say much, but just gave him an instructive look: Be careful. Soon, "Agulie" left the barracks where the Flamelight Army was stationed, while the "Human Treasurer" rested in Athena's tent due to "ill health".

Chen Rui passed through the entrance and walked towards the town step by step, because he didn't know what danger was ahead, so his speed was not very fast, and Pagliu followed silently far behind him, this distance was not even detectable by the eye of analysis, but Chen Rui could clearly sense the existence of this equal link partner through the "spiritual link".

The scope of the whole town is very large, but until now, I haven't seen a living person or even a living thing, only occasionally I see a few piles of jagged white bones underground, giving people a lifeless feeling everywhere, I don't know, I thought I came to the rock mouth town where Guladam made the undead.

Could it be some kind of necromancer playing tricks like the last time in Iwaguchi?, but the skeletons were abandoned in place, not like the handiwork of a necromancer, but like some terrible monster that devoured life.

Chen Rui frowned, he didn't stop at his feet, the more corpses he saw the more he went, in various postures, and there was a white mist floating around, which was terrifying.

Chen Rui deliberately walked into a few rooms to take a look, and found that there were also many corpses in the room, it seems that that kind of terrible "thing" did not spare any corner of life.

Is it some kind of monster created by blood annihilation? Chen Rui thought of the terrifying shiyan of the Crystal Valley Secret Demon Valley, and his brows furrowed even tighter.

The elemental interference here was very serious, and props such as the magic map and the magic eye compass could not be used, so Chen Rui could only rely on a simple hand-drawn map provided by Agras and move forward cautiously.

The strange thing is that when Su Men broke in a few days ago, he brought in about 1,500 people, and some of them were cavalry, but they didn't see the relevant corpses along the way, where did they go?

Chen Rui turned around a few times, bypassed a river, and gradually approached the central part of Luping Town, where the mysterious pit was located.

From a distance, Chen Rui saw dozens of strange spires in the mist, and when he got closer, he found that these buildings similar to bone towers were all made of white bones!

Not only that, but there are also dark red strange patterns on the ground, which should be painted in blood, and skulls are used in many places, which looks extremely weird.

Chen Rui's heart trembled slightly, this largest town in blue melt is equivalent to the number of lives of a medium-sized city, is it ......

What's even more hateful is that under the control of Mousse, the army was actually dispatched, blocking the way out outside, and cruelly burying the Zuihou life of all the innocent townspeople.

Although Chen Rui is not a compassionate monk, but in the face of such a scene of anger and resentment, his heart suddenly swelled with strong anger, blood annihilation!

Just as Chen Rui stepped into the range of those patterns, the dark red ball suddenly emitted a faint light, and puffs of black smoke came out of the bone tower and wrapped towards Chen Rui.

Chen Rui had the intention to try the attributes of black smoke, but he didn't dodge or use protective skills, and let the black smoke wrap his body, and sure enough, the super system sent a hint that the toxin was transformed. After a long time, a pulling force came, Chen Rui withdrew the liliang around him, and let this liliang act like a dead man, only to feel that his mind was shaken and was "dragged" to another place.

It was a clearing, surrounded by several bone towers, black smoke wafted everywhere, and it was impossible to see things in the distance, and the toxin transformation data in the super system was constantly changing, apparently a toxic environment.

Chen Rui unexpectedly saw a large group of people, to be precise, a group of unconscious people, but not skeletons or corpses.

Judging from the clothing, it should be the soldiers of the army, counting the number, there are about more than a thousand people, and more than a hundred horses, these people are likely to be the army brought in by General Sumen, from the perspective of the effect, the poisonous gas in the black smoke should not be fatal, mainly the effect of coma. Chen Rui thought of what Agras said, "The black gas of that pit will take the lives of some of its inhabitants 'every day'."

That's right, it should be like this, the life required by the pit is phased, that is, it will devour life every once in a while, so these soldiers, including Chen Rui himself, are currently "storing food".

Chen Rui didn't want to wait for that monster to come and patronize, besides, there were nearly two thousand lives here (plus war horses), so he immediately took out a bottle of antidote and tried to detoxify a soldier beside him.

However, the grandmaster-level antidote in the exchange center only made the soldier recover a little bit of consciousness, Chen Rui's eyes fell on the black qi that filled everywhere, and his mind moved, and the God Devouring Mask, one of the seven artifacts, had already appeared on his face, and he launched the additional skill "God Devourer" obtained by cracking the artifact.

As soon as the skill was activated, all the surrounding black qi surged towards Chen Rui's head, and the mask was like a long whale sucking water, and in the blink of an eye, it had swallowed up all the black qi within a range of hundreds of meters nearby.

The liliang of the artifact is indeed extraordinary, this god-devouring skill can devour all spiritual power, mana and soul attacks, and the fly in the ointment is that it can only be used once every seven days.

After the black qi disappeared, several white bone towers that had been condensed due to some kind of liliang seemed to have lost their supporting skeletons and collapsed one after another.

I don't know if it's an illusion, at the moment when the White Bone Tower collapsed, Chen Rui seemed to feel a wave of anger rushing towards him, but the God Devouring Mask was immune to soul attacks, so Chen Rui, who was still wearing the mask, was not affected in the slightest.

After losing the coma effect of the black mist, the surrounding soldiers began to regain consciousness, and they all seemed to be fine, but because they had been in a coma for a few days and had not eaten, their physical state appeared relatively weak.

"Who is General Sumen?" Chen Rui asked loudly as he handed out recovery potions and antidote potions to nearby soldiers.

A voice rang out: "I am Sumen, you saved us?"

Chen Rui's current cloak was very conspicuous among the soldiers, and the distribution of potions attracted Su Men's attention from the beginning.

Su Men was a great demon in the early stage of the Great Demon King, tall, wearing a red armor, although his physical condition was not good, his eyes still looked sharp, Chen Rui stepped forward and handed Su Men a group of recovery potions.

"General, I am Agulie, the deputy commander of the Dark Moon Red Blood Legion, and I was entrusted by Lord Chandler to lead the army to investigate the mysterious incident in Lupin Town, and by the way, bring the general back safely. ”

"Lord Chandler?" Sumen raised his hand to recover the potion and suddenly stopped, his eyes becoming fierce.

"The general may have misunderstood something, Lord Chandler has been controlled by the treasurer Mousse with a trick of seduction, so he will issue some orders against his will, including declaring the general a treason. Now that Mousse is dead, Lord Chandler is back to normal, this time he commissioned us to come here with the Darkmoon Army. ”

"Before I came here, I heard some news about the Darkmoon reinforcements, but how can you prove that you are a member of the Darkmoon Legion?" Even after hearing the news that Chandler was being controlled, the hostility in Sumen's eyes still did not relax in the slightest, but became a little more suspicious.

"With the current situation, it seems that I don't need to prove anything," Chen Rui said, but he didn't stop in his hands, handing out the bottles of potions, "And the Flame Light Army Commander Athena and the 10,000-strong elite team are now stationed outside the town." ”

"Athena!" Su Men was startled, and finally raised his head and drank the potion, his face suddenly became a little more flushed, and his spirit began to improve a lot, and he shouted to the side: "Sandro, Kache, you two take ten personal guards to help this adult quickly distribute the recovery potion." With the help of the well-trained guards, the speed of resuming the distribution of potions could suddenly be accelerated, but Su Men's words made Chen Rui's face change suddenly.

"I don't know what the purpose of that so-called lord entrusted you to come here, I just want to tell you that the real Lord Chandler is dead!"

"What?" Chen Rui couldn't help but blurt out, this news was really shocking!

"It was by chance that I found Lord Chandler in the secret room of the Lord's Palace, and I learned that the lord outside was actually a fake! At that time, Lord Chandler was already dying, and before he died, he asked me to put the overall situation first, not to make a noise, but to secretly go to Lupin Town, first find his young son Tageo, who was secretly fostered here, and then reveal the truth, and try to support Tageo to ascend to the throne of lord. ”

Speaking of this, Su Men clenched his fists: "I don't know if I was noticed by that false lord, I actually sent someone to block the exit of Luping Town, and I also intended to arrest me, fortunately, I saw the opportunity early, and escaped early with a group of loyal subordinates, hiding in Tibet along the way, avoiding pursuit, and finally came to Luping Town." Unexpectedly, Lupin Town has turned into a dead town under some kind of strange liliang! Master Chandler's youngest son, Master Tagao, is only afraid that it will be ......"

Chen Rui then understood, Weishenme Sumen will quietly break away from the Blue Army, and will make a detour all the way to Lupin Town, thinking of the previous performance in the Blue Melting City Mousse, Chandler, and Warret, and suddenly woke up: What a realistic play!

In vain, he usually boasted that he was a little clever, but now he has fallen for such a trick! The person who manipulates everything behind his back must have a terrible high level of wisdom!

No, it's not just a trick, it's also a poisonous trick! Chen Rui reacted instantly-since "Chandler" used all his scheming to trick the Dark Moon army here, then this terrifying place must have a terrible liliang to bury everyone!
