(The second update is 4000, ask for a monthly pass, ask for a subscription)
When Chen Rui first came into contact with this noble lady of the shadow royal family, he just felt that his intelligence was extraordinary and he was a difficult opponent; as the conversation deepened, his heart became more and more surprised, and Zuihou could only use the word "against the sky" to describe the other party's wisdom. Although there was a hazy veil, he could feel the depth and stillness contained in those eyes, and everything about himself seemed to be penetrated.
Seeing that he had been silent, the noble lady spoke: "Your Excellency Richard seems to be quite wary of me, in fact, I don't have the liliang that Delia peeks into my heart, but when you were in a coma, you recognized the origin of this Lucifer royal ring." Your luck is indeed bad, since the Belyl royal family is not behind, there are fewer and fewer people in the demon world who know the secret treasure 'Dark Will', and I happen to be one of them, and you were unfortunately teleported to my carriage. As a member of the royal family of Lucifer, I understand your loyalty to the royal family and to your country. But, you're also a wise man, and you really don't want to give an explanation to my hypothesis?".
Chen Rui himself didn't know the true origin of the Dark Will, and when he heard the noble girl say this, he knew that it seemed to be related to Lomon's Belier royal family, and it was probably because of Lomon's suspicion of him at that time.
This noble girl does not have the pupil of nightmares, but she is undoubtedly more terrifying than the pupils of nightmares, and these so-called "assumptions" are all to the point, except for the identity of Zuihou, the royal family of Lucifer.
"What should be said is all for Miss to assume, what else can I say?" Chen Rui sighed, "No matter how many excuses there are, in front of Miss's wisdom, it is just a sacrifice of ugliness." ”
"So, where is the Devil Fruit now? Have you preserved it with a secret method? This is your only hope of survival. ”
"Didn't Miss just say that the magic pomegranate fruit will expire in five minutes after leaving the fruit tree?" Chen Rui seemed to remember that the Star Garden only had a hint of the withering of the fruit tree after picking the fruit, and there was no such thing, so he showed an embarrassed expression at the moment, "Don't hide it, Miss, it's the first time I've heard of it." ”
As soon as the words fell, Chen Rui felt a faint killing intent completely envelop him. This kind of killing intent seems to be bland, but it seeps into every part of the skin, bones, blood and even the soul, and he instinctively gives birth to an unprecedented sense of crisis, as long as the other party's killing intent moves, he can completely wipe him out without making a move.
It may be that Pagliu was sealed by the ancient runes, and this terrifying killing intent power has never been felt even on the poisonous dragon.
Of course, Chen Rui didn't want to be killed, so he quickly diverted the key topic of the magic pomegranate fruit: "Miss's assumption just now is very strong, but there is one point, I am still wrong. ”
The killing intent was slightly retracted, but it did not dissipate, just like a raised butcher's knife, when it was close to the neck, it was retracted, but it was still on top of his head.
"Oh? ”
"I'm not from the Lucifer royal family, nor am I the person Thea has recruited, and she doesn't have the qualifications. Chen Rui took a deep breath, as if he didn't care about the "butcher knife" hanging over his head, the more at this time, the more he needed to calm down. Fear, will only die faster.
Chen Rui's tone revealed a sense of pride: "Xia and I are just a temporary employment relationship. If I really spare no effort to help her, she is now the empress of the Fallen Angel Empire, but unfortunately, she can't afford to pay for it. 'Will of Darkness' is my reward for helping her accomplish something, and under the secret method of melting the blood of the Lucifer royal family, I am the owner of the ring, and it is useless for you to take it. ”
The wisdom of the noble lady is too terrifying, if you investigate further, it is likely that even the identity of the human mining officer will be revealed, and most importantly, the magic pomegranate fruit is now gone, and it is difficult to save her life.
Could it be that if you wait for nine days, when the magic pomegranate fruit in the garden of the stars is ripe, I will compensate you.
The first thing Chen Rui had to do was to muddy the water first, so that this noble girl would lose the psychological advantage of being in control everywhere, and then fish in troubled waters and grab a hole card to save her life.
"Can you let me touch this ring again before I say something?". Chen Rui suddenly made a strange request.
"It will take at least ten hours for this ring to be activated, and it doesn't matter if it is returned to you, but I would like to warn you in advance that the magic house we are in is a secret treasure left behind by the Great Master of Weaponry, and even if you activate the ring, you can't and can't teleport to the outside world. I agree with your wisdom, so I don't want you to act unwisely. The noblewoman said, reaching out her hand and handing the ring to him. It seems that the name of Wukong Grand Master cannot be used this time, and this woman is too powerful, if even the biggest secret is revealed by her, it will be all over.
"Is it okay to give it back to me? Chen Rui's shackled hand reached over, and did not touch the jade-like palm of the noble lady, but just took the ring away within the range that the storage warehouse could collect.
However, as soon as the ring returned to the storage warehouse, it suddenly disappeared, Chen Rui was taken aback, and the noble girl's voice sounded faintly: "I'm sorry, it's just a small mimicry trick, and the ring can't be returned to you until you get a satisfactory answer." ”
She said daoqian, but there was no trace of apology in her tone.
Chen Rui only felt that every move was in the other party's precise calculations, and suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness.
"I knew that strange things would happen after you made this strange request, but I didn't expect it to be like this," a strange light appeared in the eyes of the noble girl behind the veil: "Your ability is very magical, the Golden Crystal Demon Lock is the top work of a master-level artifact maker, although it is not as good as the great grandmaster, but it can imprison everything including the royal bloodline, I can't imagine that I can't control your ability." ”
It is no wonder that this shackle can even imprison star power, and it cannot be collected with a storage warehouse. Fortunately, those pure aura skills are not restricted, and as long as the time permits, this master-level top work will be a very rich aura feast.
It's just that with the lesson of this ring, Chen Rui will be more cautious, just like facing a chess player with a higher chess strength than himself, and he can't easily let the opponent see through his back moves.
Chen Rui didn't think much about the small mistake just now, in fact, this game of chess has just begun.
"I wanted to show off just now, but it made Miss smile, but this shiyan proves that Miss's magic house can't block the teacher's space. ”
The noble girl's tone was indeed slightly surprised: "Teacher?"
"My teacher, with unimaginably powerful Liliang, it is no exaggeration to say that even a Demon Emperor-level powerhouse like Catherine the Great of your country is no different from a born baby in his eyes. I've seen it happen to me when the teacher defeated an adult dragon with one hand and sealed it with ancient runes. ”
The teacher Chen Rui said was naturally borrowed from what Pagliu said, the image of the mysterious powerhouse who sealed the poisonous dragon back then.
No matter how strong you are, you are not as strong as your background. The demon world is also a shijie who fights for the background and fights for the father, pretending to be a rich second-generation official, a second-generation strong second-generation and the like, and the chances of saving his life will undoubtedly increase a lot.
"Maybe you don't believe it, there is such a strong person hidden in the demon world, although he has no reputation, but ......"
"I believe that it has been recorded in the secret texts of the royal family that there is indeed a Demon Venerable-level powerhouse above the Demon Emperor in the Demon Realm, which is equivalent to the existence of a demigod. The noble lady was well-informed, and she didn't doubt it, but directly admitted the existence of such a strong person, "But I don't believe that such a strong person will be your teacher." ”
"Just now I put the 'Dark Will' ...... Well, the mimic ring made by the young lady was teleported to a special space created by the teacher, which is a special space that only the teacher and I can use, called the 'magic treasure bag'. There is another thing, there is a trace of my soul deposited in some kind of container, as long as that trace is not destroyed, then even if you kill me now, I can be resurrected again, but the process is quite troublesome, and my liliang will fall back into the middle level demon. I don't want things to end up getting this out of hand. It's just that...... If things develop to that point out of control, both Miss and the Shadow Empire will suffer unbearable blows. ”
The noblewoman's knowledge and wisdom are unfathomable, and only by using unknown things can her judgment be confused, and further play the role of fishing in troubled waters.
Chen Rui slowly stood up: "This is by no means a bluff, respected young lady. My teacher has no interest in power and the like, and he will not easily interfere with the normal order of the demon world, and there are only two things that he values most in his life, the first is liliang, and the second is inheritance, just like the reverse scales on the legendary dragon god, and he will be angry when he touches it. I think, with the wisdom of the young lady, she should understand what I mean. ”
Chen Rui wanted to say that he had seven Horcruxes, but after thinking about it, he still simplified the complex and directly reduced it to one. ..., the noble lady pondered for a moment and said, "If you are really the inheritor of a peerless powerhouse, I do need to reconsider, but the first thing you need is to prove this identity. ”
Chen Rui knew that this noble girl only believed one percent, and the reason was the strange method of using the "magic treasure bag" to collect the "Dark Will" just now, and her suspicions must be further dispelled.
"So......" something appeared in Chen Rui's hand, "What about this?"
The noble lady had been paying attention to him and confirmed that she had not used any space equipment, so she pulled out the cork, sniffed it carefully, and finally moved slightly: "Black Elixir"
"Really, the Romance Elixir. Teacher-configured. Chen Rui smiled slightly, "I forgot to mention that he not only has a powerful liliang, but also is proficient in many aspects of miscellaneous science, and pharmacy is just one of them." But as he himself said, he was too knowledgeable and under-specialized, so he was never able to break through to the true god level. ”
"Too erudite and unsophisticated?" the noble lady thought about it, but she didn't have the black potion of greedy ink, and returned it, "The validity period of the black potion is a hundred years, this bottle of potion is obviously effective, it can't be some kind of collection." Grand Master Rosenbach has been dead for thousands of years, and his disciple Saman has stolen all the secret recipes and is missing, is your teacher Saman ??"
The appearance of the black elixir was enough to shake the entire demon world, and the noble girl's mind turned quickly, and she immediately thought of the secret story of the great master of the medicine thousands of years ago.
Chen Rui shook his head, showing contempt: "I don't know the teacher's name, I just call 'teacher'." But I'm sure it's not that shameless Saman, even if Saman becomes a potion master, does he have the power to open up a specific space?"
The noble girl nodded, Chen Rui observed her words, and knew that she finally believed in the existence of the "teacher" a little, and said with a stick: "I'm sorry for one thing, I ate all the magic pomegranate fruits, leaving only the core." Because a long time ago, the teacher said that he wanted to use the pit to try to grow the magic pomegranate fruit that ripened repeatedly. This time, I was originally dealing with the Scarlet Guardian Regiment, but after hearing the news of the Devil Grenade Fruit, I temporarily changed Jihua and captured the Devil Grenade Fruit. ”
"You've Eaten It All"
The noble girl was shocked, Chen Rui only felt that the murderous aura in the air suddenly became stronger, and it went straight to his heart, and he couldn't help but hit a spirit, it seemed that he had made another mistake. The second generation of X, who has been boasting for a long time, is showing off and threatening, and zuihou still can't be a few fruits. What is the purpose of this fruit, is it worth much more than the black potion?
If you're not careful, you'll lose everything, and now it's dangerous.
"Is it really not thinking about the consequences?". Chen Rui knew that he couldn't show weakness at this time, but instead stood up straight: "Killing me actually outweighs the loss, as long as the teacher's magic pomegranate shiyan succeeds, you can get more magic pomegranate fruit." ”
"It's useless, I only have three days left, and I can't catch up in time. And this time I only need to pick ten for my task, and no matter how much I have, it's useless. The noble lady shook her head slowly: "You don't understand the meaning of the magic pomegranate fruit at all, and you don't understand how much trouble you have caused this time. If it weren't for this incident, just the Leia mess or something, it could be said that your threat had succeeded.
"Could it be that the loss of the Demon Grenade Fruit can affect the survival of the entire Shadow Empire?" Chen Rui really didn't expect the consequences to be so serious, the Demon Grenade Fruit still had about nine days to ripen in the Star Garden, and three days would definitely be too late.
"Miss, can I offer some kind of compensation? say, black potion?"
"It's useless, even the highest-level resurrection potion or life-prolonging potion can't replace the value of the magic pomegranate fruit. The noblewoman's tone was categorical, and there was no room for bargaining.
Chen Rui had no choice but to use a trick: "I don't know, can this thing be replaced?"
As he spoke, a red fruit the size of a goose egg appeared in his hand, round and clear, like a gem, and what shocked the noble lady even more was that this red fruit exuded a strange aura.
This kind of aura is somewhat familiar, she has felt it on a magic pomegranate fruit many years ago, and she has always remembered it vividly, and the breath of this fruit is at least twice as strong as that of the magic pomegranate fruit
The murderous aura that filled the air finally gradually dissipated...... ,
