Chapter 735: Choice
"When 'Chen Rui' first met 'Isis', I was already suspicious.?" Catherine looked at him quietly, "Judging by this suspicion, you have more and more flaws...... Although the last time I visited the Fallen Angel Empire, you used a powerful stand-in that confused me for a while, but at the first glance I saw you today, I was completely sure of your identity. ”
"I can't hide it in your eyes. Chen Rui sighed and shook his head, when Catherine visited the Fallen Angel Empire, he was on the ground, asking Lola to pretend to be Isabella's idea, if he was there, when he learned that Catherine was visiting, he would definitely go in person, so he was afraid that he would be debunked earlier.
"I finally understand that you won't accept my solicitation, even if I don't hesitate to use myself as a bargaining chip. It turns out that Shia has already given you chips earlier. Catherine's bright eyes showed a slight hint: "In this way, the previous mysteries have been solved, from reversing the Dark Moon Crisis to overthrowing Obsidian, and then to the development of the entire Fallen Angel Empire, it is all controlled by you, which is equivalent to holding the entire Fallen Angel Empire in your hands." If it weren't for the crisis of this bloody invasion and giving you full time to develop, in a few years, the Liliang of the Fallen Angel Empire would have swelled to a terrifying level, even the Shadow Empire and the Bloody Empire would not be able to escape the scourge, and the Demon Realm would be completely controlled by you, a human being!
Means?Human Beings Control the Demon Realm?Chen Rui's eyes widened, and he smiled bitterly: "I only have one answer, you think too much." Do you think a man who is defined as stupid in your mouth would have such ambitions?"
Catherine stared at his eyes tightly, and the man's determination to desperately teleport Bai Luo in the Night Wetland, the firmness of crushing his heart in the Crystal Valley, and his deep gaze couldn't help but soften, yes, he was indeed a stupid guy.
She immediately turned her gaze to the side, avoiding him from discovering this softness, but snorted coldly: "Maybe I'm thinking too much." You're just a drunken man who is obsessed with women. I now admire that Empress Shia, who saw your talent and nature early on, and did not hesitate to sacrifice her beauty to fascinate you, so that Darkmoon reversed the decline and rose in one fell swoop, defeated Obsidian in an almost impossible performance, and developed the Fallen Angel Empire to this extent. ”
"Things are not what you think," Chen Rui shook his head. "Shia and I had a fairly ordinary relationship at first, and when I first met you in the Nightshade Wetlands, I was still wondering how to get out of the Darkmoon Territory, and I knew that it would be ...... A lot has happened for us to really come together. Truth be told, by now. How close I was to her...... Not as good as us. ”
Catherine felt an inexplicable annoyance, and sneered: "Sure enough, what you can't get is the most haode, it seems that Xia is much smarter than I imagined." ”
Chen Rui frowned and said, "In your heart, is there only the word value or chips?"
"An emperor must remain ruthless, the emotional emperors in history will only lead the empire to decay and destruction, and I carry the hope of the entire empire on my shoulders, so I will never be swayed by personal feelings. From the moment I slay my fellow brother with my own hands, I have made an oath. For the sake of this country, I will do whatever it takes, even if my hands are full of blood, even if it is ......" Catherine did not continue, her eyes that gradually became cold had already made it clear, even if she had feelings for Chen Rui, she would never change her mind because of this.
Chen Rui looked directly at the coldness in Catherine's eyes: "You want to tell me, this is the real you?"
"This has always been the real me, and you don't have to try to persuade me in vain. I don't use any perfunctory means. I'm going to be open and honest with you today. ”
Catherine's temperament changed, revealing a solemn and solemn expression: "You should know it very well. The battle of the fallen angels will definitely be lost, but it will not be easy for Lei Chan to take down the fallen angel empire, and with my secret methods, at least nearly half of the troops will be lost. As long as I take the Dark Moon and the Red Shadow, I will wait for work and defend the danger. Within ten years, the Bloody Demon will not have the strength to deal with the Shadow Empire, if you help me, I am sure that the national power and military power will be above the Bloody Empire in ten years, and even if Lei Chan is still in power, the Bloody Demon Empire will not be my opponent. You now join the Shadow Empire to help me destroy the fallen angels first, and then destroy the blood, and establish the first unified empire in the history of the Demon Realm. ”
Chen Rui's brows moved slightly, only to hear Catherine continue: "You are the only man I like, except for the throne, I can meet all your conditions." Once the Fallen Angel Empire is destroyed, with the temperament of Yixia, there is no reason to steal life, even if she does not die, Lei Chan and I will not be able to let her live, except for her, I can tolerate the rest of your women. This is my bottom line, and it is also the zuihou opportunity I give you. Everyone is smart people, don't waste time procrastinating, I want to hear your reply immediately. ”
This kind of condition can no longer be described with "generous", just the first beauty emperor in the demon world is upside down and compatible with other women, it is a condition that outsiders can't imagine, I believe that there are few men in the entire demon world who can refuse.
Chen Rui was silent for a moment and slowly shook his head.
This is a two-choice question, although this answer is a one-half choice from the question, and it is not unexpected, but Catherine's heart suddenly swelled with unspeakable resentment, and she almost lost her usual calm: "Thea is so important?
"I don't know anything about imperial power and other means, I only know one thing, the woman I love, if one day, even if everything in Shijie is on the opposite side of her, I will still be by her side. ”
"Understood," Catherine took a deep breath, her dark eyes fell silent, a faint coldness appeared, her long hair began to be windless, and the aura of the entire courtyard suddenly changed, full of murderous intent, "Since you refuse, then...... I will not tolerate the survival of an enemy who is a great threat to the Empire. ”
"There is a magic array in this courtyard that isolates teleportation or leaving, I felt it from the moment I came in, it seems that you have already had such a plan," Chen Rui sighed, "Between us, are you really going to come this far?"
"I gave you a choice. Catherine's voice revealed a hint of coldness, and the entire space suddenly burned, leaving only flames in Chen Rui's eyes, black flames.
As soon as Catherine made a move, it was the strongest "Black Phoenix Domain", and in the space of black flames, four golden figures appeared around Chen Rui and surrounded him.
"Boom, boom!"
The Crystal Cannon of the Vallock Fortress spewed tongues of fire, and where the devastating light passed, even the special reflective shield completely wiped out the power of the improved Crystal Cannon, and the shield-wielding soldiers were reduced to nothingness. It's just that the reflection shield is not completely useless, and the lethality of the magic crystal cannon has also been reduced a lot.
The army of the Bloody Empire is worthy of being a well-trained elite, although the companions are annihilated or fallen one by one, the formation is still not the slightest disorder, facing the Vallock Fortress, the largest and most sturdy fortress city in the Demon Realm, the soldiers maintain their original speed and move forward unhurriedly, as if they had crushed the defense line of Black Cloud Town before, this momentum has caused great pressure on the psychology of the defender.
The soldiers of the Vallock Fortress have followed George, the first general of the fallen angels, for many years, and are also the elite who have been tempered for many years, without noise or panic, just silently waiting for the order of the commander Francis.
Due to the cooling, the bombardment of the magic crystal cannon stopped temporarily, and with a wave of Francis's hand, the magic horn of the starter blew a strange rhythmic sound, and the goblin warriors in charge of long-range strikes were in place to prepare, and rows of shadows of strange equipment appeared on the shooting holes of the fortress.
"Ballista?"
In the temporary base of Black Cloud Town, in a huge magic crystal mirror, the first general of the Bloody Evil, Gustav, is looking at the warband of the Vallock Fortress, and beside him are the great prince Alius and the little prince Tevez of the Bloody Empire.
Alius frowned: "Although the range of the ballista is considerable, it has long been eliminated from the ordinary battlefield because of the complex loading, slow firing speed, small strike range, etc., at this time, even if it is used with a magic bow and arrow, it is stronger than the attack frequency and killing range of the ballista, it is hard to believe that George would make such a mistake." ”
"So these ballistas, there must be something wrong. Tevez spoke, "In the decisive battle between Darkmoon and Obsidian, that improved magic crystal cannon used to exert unexpected power, I think this ballista should be one of the secret weapons that was not exposed at the time, I believe the answer will be available soon." ”
Tevez was right, and with Francis's order, countless crossbow arrows like spears roared out, and the sky was filled with a terrible sound tearing through the air.
The bloody soldiers raised their shields in unison at the commander's orders, but the reflective shield, which had a considerable countervailing effect on energy attacks, was as fragile as paper in the face of the terrifying crossbow arrows, and was easily pierced by the shield of the man. The crossbow bolts that pierced through the target exploded violently, bursting out countless tiny fragments of arrows, and they were also highly poisonous, and the nearby soldiers fell to the ground one after another.
Every arrow shot can take the lives of several soldiers, and what is even more terrifying is that the loading speed of this ballista is much faster than that of ordinary ballista, which of course has the operation level of goblin warriors, and the more important reason is the improvement of the ballista itself.
The bloody army suffered numerous losses under the rain of arrows from the ballistas, but they still managed to maintain their formation, only to slow down their advance.
"Sure enough, there are strange things," Gustav in front of the magic mirror slowly bowed his head: "The soldiers will not die in vain, we have determined the enemy's long-range strike range, we should be able to immediately build a catapult and a giant shield barrier, and the air legion can also start to prepare." ”
"That's right, the real war has just begun, and it will be a great feast that will change the history of the Demon Realm. Tevez smiled elegantly, a strange light flashing in his eyes. (To be continued)
