Chapter 228: Meet Your Father-in-law
In the room of an inn somewhere in Darkmoon City, Chen Rui stood very restrained. Opposite him was a man of medium stature, about thirty-four years of age, with angular features and high brow bones, showing a tenacious and stern aura.
"You are Chen Rui?" the man's voice was thick and powerful, revealing a faint deterrence.
Chen Rui hurriedly replied, "Yes, Your Excellency General." ”
This man is Athena's father, the first general of the empire, George Wells, that is, the "father-in-law" that Chen Rui wants to meet this time.
was a little different from Chen Rui's imagination, when General George saw him, he did not rush up and shout to kill, but carefully looked up and down with a scrutinizing gaze, which made a certain son-in-law a little hairy.
A certain son-in-law had the courage to open the eye of analysis: Race: Great Demon (mutation), comprehensive strength assessment: impossible to judge.
The strength that can't be judged! Demon Emperor, Demon Emperor, Chen Rui was taken aback, it is estimated that the possibility of the Demon Emperor is relatively large, and his father-in-law is worthy of being the first general of the empire, and he has cultivated to the realm of the Demon Emperor with the body of a great demon.
If you really do it, Pugliu has just broken free from the lock of light and darkness now, and he is only in the early stage of the Demon Emperor, so he may not be able to win, so why don't you try it with poison?
Just when Chen Rui was nervously thinking about it, his father-in-law Tianren spoke.
"I have a few questions that you need to answer, the first one is. George's eyes fell on the people behind Chen Rui, and said coldly: "What do you mean by bringing these people here?"
Seeing that the atmosphere was not good, Lomon cleverly stepped forward, bowed and said, "Your Excellency General, do you remember Lomon and Delia in Heiyun Town three years ago? We are good friends of Athena, and you helped and took care of Domeng back then, and today I learned that the general was coming, and I specially came to thank you." ”
George nodded, and Royce reacted quickly, and hurriedly said: "The three of us are direct subordinates of Lord Athena, and we have long admired the prestige of the general, and we have come to visit us. ”
Athena is already the first hostess in the certainty, and the so-called "direct subordinates" are also worthy of the name.
George looked at the Royce trio, and didn't say much, but Pagliu was not so easy to talk to, and said in a big way: "You guts bastard! I just can't get used to being arrogant, I'm here......"
He's a friend of me and Athena, and he's passing by here for soy sauce and came to see it. Chen Rui said first, glaring at Pagliu fiercely.
Pagliu snorted coldly, and did not continue to make trouble, in fact, the poisonous dragon felt that the strength of this General George was not trivial, once the fight really started, I was afraid that with his current state of being sealed by the ancient runes, he was not an opponent.
The more this is the case, the more the poisonous dragon is worried about Chen Rui's safety, in case George really has a killing intention, even if it is himself, he may not be able to protect Chen Rui, so he has the intention to attract George's attention.
"General George has something to discuss with me, so you can go out first. Chen Rui glanced at everyone.
Athena glanced at the expressionless George, afraid that the two most important men in her heart would turn against her, bit her lip and said, "Father, I'll stay." ”
"My next question, I'm going to ask this kid alone, and I won't do anything to him until then. George saw Athena's worries, and added, "If you stay here, then there will be nothing to say between me and him, and I will take you directly back to the Vallock Fortress."
Under Chen Rui's repeated instructions, Athena walked out of the room with an unhappy look on Pagliu and the others.
"It turns out that it is bold to bring so many people. George glanced at Chen Rui, who was a little nervous, and asked, "Are you afraid that I will kill you?"
"I'm really a little afraid, no one knows the prestige of the first general of the empire. Chen Rui flattered his father-in-law a little: "But I'm even more afraid that I won't be able to satisfy the general and make Athena sad." ”
"I received word that a human in Darkmoon City had shamelessly deceived my daughter with sweet words and nasty drugs. Now it seems that your eloquence is good, and you have met the first point. ”
Chen Rui smiled bitterly: "I also have an identity as an apprentice of the master of apothecary, so the second point is almost the same." ”,
George nodded indifferently, but did not make a fuss about this matter: "I met the eldest princess yesterday and learned about the grain base you planned, and now the regent Hei Yao has ordered to cut half of the food aid in the Chiyou Territory, what do you think about this matter?"
Chen Rui was stunned, and he didn't expect George to continue the "interrogation." "Instead, the topic fell on this aspect, is it the father-in-law's test?
At least one chance, anyway.
Chen Rui straightened out his thoughts and roughly said the follow-up jihua, which was similar to what Tim said last time, but made some adjustments in the details.
George bowed slightly, noncommittal, and asked, "You taught Athena all those methods of training soldiers?"
"The general is the grandmaster of this, the god of the empire, the combat power of those soldiers...... Let the general see and laugh. ”
George shook his head: "Due to the relationship between the foundation and the training time, the combat effectiveness of those soldiers is indeed not worth mentioning, but your training method is not funny at all." Although this method is simple, it is very effective, and once it can be truly ordered and prohibited, there will be a considerable leap in the combat effectiveness of the troops. My second question is, what do you think a really strong army looks like?"
This should be the third question...... Chen Rui was very clever not to remind his father-in-law of small mistakes in mathematical knowledge, thought about it, and said: "Actually, I am a layman in the military, and I remember that there is a sentence among the sages of mankind. It is as fast as the wind, its Xu is like a forest, the invasion is like fire, it is not moving like a mountain, it is difficult to know like a yin, and it is like a thunderstorm, which should be the requirement of a strong army. ”
"It is as fast as the wind, its Xu is like a forest, it is like a fire, it is not moving like a mountain, it is difficult to know like a cloud, and it is like a thunderstorm. George chewed on these words carefully and blurted out, "Well said! Your training method, I plan to promote it in the Vallock Fortress, you have no opinion." If you can really meet the requirements of these few words, you can become the strongest army in the Demon Realm!"
Of course, Chen Rui had no opinion, and when he heard George's appreciation, he said a few more words with the stick: Those who attack must take it, attack what they don't defend. Those who defend and will be fortified will defend what they do not attack...... The water is controlled by the land, and the soldiers are defeated by the enemy. Therefore, the army is impermanent, the water is impermanent, and the one who can win due to the change of the enemy is called a god......
The Huaxia Ancestor's art of war was unusual, and when Chen Rui properly translated it with the grammar of the Demon Realm, George's eyes flashed and he couldn't help nodding. Seeing that his father-in-law was happy, a certain son-in-law shouted in his heart that the brilliance of Lord Sun Wu was comparable to the two moons of the Demon Realm.
George's next question shocked Chen Rui, who was still a little complacent just now: "What is the relationship between that dragon clan and you just now?"
Pagliu is obviously in human form, but George is aware of Paliou's identity as a dragon! Chen Rui was taken aback, George saw his surprise, shook his head and said, "Didn't Athena tell you? My thirteenth wife is a dragon woman, although the dragon clan has restrained Liliang, but that unique aura can't hide from me who has lived with the dragon clan for many years. ”
This is the real dragon knight! My father-in-law is so good! In an instant, Chen Rui's admiration was like a surging river.
But the question still has to be answered, Chen Rui thought about it for a while, and said the answer truthfully without concealing it: "Partner." ”
George was slightly moved: "I didn't expect you to be recognized by the dragon clan, I originally thought that I had already looked up to you, but I didn't expect to look away." Then the next few questions can be reduced to zuihou With your wisdom, talent, and military strategy, plus the dragon partner's liliang, weishenme will stay in a place like Dark Moon and serve the eldest princess?"
Chen Rui bowed his head and was silent, when he first came to the Demon Realm, it was purely for survival and struggle, and later signed a symbiosis contract with Pagliu, which was also restricted by the seal of the lock of light and darkness, and it was only now, after several twists and turns, that Pagliu broke free from the shackles of the lock of light and darkness under the effect of Sauron's pupil and gained freedom.
Looking back, he has grown step by step from a human being without liliang to the help of the super system, and has obtained today's liliang, even the wisdom and planning ability of the original duck on the shelves are gradually revealing that this can be regarded as an environmental changer. If the reborn "Arthur" did not fall into the Demon Realm but was still in the human Shijie, then he would probably still be a nobleman waiting for death. ,
Now that Pagliu is free from the shackles and can move freely, the inevitable conditions that restrained Chen Rui from staying in the Dark Moon have disappeared, and now he can choose to fly away, leaving this dangerous Dark Moon, leaving the iceberg woman with an indifferent mask, and leaving the quirky and cute little girl......
Seeing that he was silent, George spoke, "I have a request. ”
Chen Rui was taken aback, because what George said was not "demand." Rather, it's a "request."
George said with a straight face: "The eldest princess roughly told me your full strategy, which really surprised me, maybe ...... His Royal Highness Prince Green's last wish will not be just a pipe dream. Then, please do your best to help the eldest princess this time. It's just that this time I am deeply favored by the White Night Emperor, and I swear to defend the White Night Emperor to the death, but as a father, I also have my own selfishness. I don't ask you to be faithful, if things don't go well, you can leave Darkmoon with Athena and the children and go wherever you want to go and live the life you want. ”
Chen Rui didn't expect George to have such a request, and plucked up the courage to explain: "Your Excellency General, in fact, the matter of Athena's pregnancy is fake, and she and I have not progressed to the level of zuihou. ”
"I know, do you think she can fool me as a father with her little tricks? But just because you don't have children now doesn't mean you won't have them in the future. George's answer made Chen Rui even more surprised: "Since Athena is willing to lie to this level for you, then I can be sure that even if I take her away, her heart will always remain with you, so I didn't do that, but stayed to meet this shameless guy who stole my daughter's true heart with sweet words" Finally, I am not too disappointed.
Chen Rui's eyes lit up, listening to George's tone, it seemed that the biggest purpose of meeting his father-in-law this time was ...... It was achieved!
"I promise you, General. Chen Rui took a deep breath, nodded, and finally made an important decision in advance. As General George pleaded, not to die-hard, but to fight wholeheartedly this time, for Athena, for Thea, for Alice...... Also for their own ambition to fight against fate!
George nodded approvingly: "Very good, Athena has a home, and I can rest assured." Although you don't seem to have any liliang at all, my gut tells me that you have what it takes to protect and care for my daughter. ”
Chen Rui was very surprised, could it be that the rebound after "bad luck" automatically turned into "God bless for a day"? I originally thought that my father-in-law was the saddest, but it was so easy to pass!
A smile appeared on George's grim face: "Don't you think it's strange? I actually entrusted my daughter to a human with no power background? There are more powerful people than you can do!"
Chen Rui nodded, the daughter of the first general of the empire was destined to the lord of the broken territory...... One of the sheriffs under his command did have a feeling of a flower stuck in something.
"The reason is actually very simple, Athena likes it!" replied sonorously and forcefully from her father-in-law.
Speaking of this, George exuded a compelling momentum: "In fact, before this, not only the Caron family and the Ruth family, but also many families had made requests for marriage, and they also stated many times that it was for the continuation of the Wells family and the like. Originally, in a large family, marriage generally cannot be chosen according to one's own wishes, but my daughter of George Wells can choose by herself!"
Chen Rui's eyes lit up, Athena lost her mother when she was a child, but fortunately, she had a good father, a father who really loved his daughter.
George sneered, "I said to those guys, I'm George." Who is Wells? I will sacrifice my daughter's happiness in exchange for the interests of the family? If it falls to this point, then the surname Wells will lose its meaning of existence! If Athena disagrees, Lao Tzu does not agree, and those who are not convinced can come to Vallock Fortress to compete with me, come and kill one, kill two and kill one, and kill three and I will kill him and destroy his whole family! What if it is the Hei Yao who plotted to steal the inheritance of the White Night Emperor? If he annoys me, Lao Tzu will turn against him!"
Originally, George was just a bit of a stern uncle in Chen Rui's eyes, but at this moment, he became the first general who was domineering and domineering, no wonder even Hei Yao was jealous.
It was precisely because of George's solid backing that Xia was able to hold up the Dark Moon Territory in the difficult cracks and hold up the only glimmer of hope for the White Night Emperor.
Chen Rui's heart was full of admiration, and before he could speak, the door was pushed open suddenly, and Pugliu's voice rang out: "Who is that, enough of a man! Uncle Ben likes your arrogance! Do you dare to fight with Uncle Ben for a drink?"
George's eyes were fixed on Pagliou's body, and he was full of momentum, and spit out a sentence: "I'm afraid you won't dare!"
