Chapter 194: Thea's Reward

After everyone left, only Xia and Chen Rui were left in the chamber.

"Congratulations, new Lord of the Peace. Thea's deliberate anger at Joseph had long since disappeared, and she sighed, "Your plan is amazing, and Joseph really took the initiative to put you in the position of sheriff." ”

In fact, if it weren't for the "communication" between "Agulie" and Joseph in advance, Joseph would not have made up his mind to push Chen Rui to the throne, but Chen Rui would definitely not say these inside information, but just smiled: "If it weren't for the cooperation of the eldest princess and the Saifu family, this effect would definitely not be achieved." Next, the eldest princess can send someone to control and rectify the guards, and I just need to make a decoration. ”

"Kagulon is in charge of the Praetorian Guard," Shia had a faint look in his eyes, "Since you have become a sheriff, the guards will be handed over to you?"

"I can't do this!" Chen Rui hurriedly shook his head, it was okay to come up with some ideas to make a stumbling block behind his back, this kind of thing would definitely not be able to be done with leading troops, and the identity of "Chen Rui" was a human being without liliang, so his true strength could not be exposed.

"Don't underestimate your abilities, and you can ask Athena to help you. Xia glanced at him, and suddenly added: "There is also a piece of advice, the bloodline talent of the Wells family is very special, if you are really good to Athena, don't cross the Zuihou line before she is twenty years old." ”

Chen Rui showed a look of surprise, the matter between him and Athena was not made public, even if it was Xiao Lori, she only vaguely guessed a little, but it is estimated that Xia also guessed, from the time when Athena took the initiative to accompany Chen Rui to Xilang Mountain, Xia should have seen some clues.

Chen Rui could hear that Xia Ya's voice was faintly lonely, Xia didn't give him time to explain or think about it, and continued casually: "Since this is the case, I think that one of your promises before going to the mine should be fulfilled, and that is Ji Ya." ”

This is an old matter, Chen Rui frowned and said, "Can I refuse this reward?"

A few months ago, after Ji Ya learned about this, the relationship with Chen Rui, which was originally quite harmonious, suddenly became separated, in the past, Ji Ya liked to follow Alice to a picnic, but a few days ago when she went to the mangrove forest, Alice offered to ask Ji Ya to go, but she refused, obviously avoiding Chen Rui.

To be honest, when he first came to the Demon Realm, Chen Rui still had a little YY thoughts about this seductive demon girl, but now he doesn't feel this way at all, and he doesn't want to be strong.

"This is not actually a reward, but a task," Xia shook her head and said, "Jiya was rescued by me by chance, and then became my maid, but ...... This accident is most likely man-made. Don't underestimate this succubus, her mind and liliang are far beyond your imagination. ”

After Ji Ya became Xia Ya's maid, she has been dutiful and has won Xia Ya's trust. However, by chance, Old Gauss discovered that she actually had a powerful spiritual liliang, if it was a magician, the strength was still above Old Gauss himself, and immediately reported to Xia.

No matter what means were used for interrogation, Ji Ya only deduced that she had recently awakened the mutation talent and voluntarily brought the forbidden magic ring to show her innocence, that is, a powerful prop that imprisoned mana.

Although there is nothing to fault with this reason and attitude, Xia has become suspicious and does not keep Ji Ya by her side anymore, but gives it to Alice. In fact, Old Gauss also secretly tried to cast the master-servant contract, but it was ineffective for Ji Ya, it is likely that she already has her own master or servant, and the origin is by no means simple.

"Your mission is to find out where she came from and, if you can, subdue her once and for all, so that the pawns that the enemy has planted around us will be used by us. In addition to having an excellent magical talent, Ji Ya also has the mutation talent of Devouring Body, which can devour the power of the essence of the target and turn it into her own use, this mutation talent is very rare and powerful, even the Demon Emperor cannot be completely exempted. The Forbidden Demon Ring can only limit her magic power, not this talent, but there is a secret treasure that can suppress this devouring power - that is the Dark Will I gave you!" Xia Ya's gaze fell on Chen Rui's fingers, but he didn't find the ring, and his brows furrowed slightly.

Chen Rui sensed Xia Ya's displeasure, his mind moved, the storage warehouse came into play, opened his clenched fist, and the palm of his hand was the secret treasure of the Lucifer royal family: "I think you need this secret treasure more than me, and now that you have returned from Xilang Mountain, I wanted to return it to you." "This is a gift from you, I don't plan to come back," Xia glanced at the ring and shook her head slightly, "This secret treasure is the secret treasure ring forged by Sakya Lucifer the Great's beloved concubine Xue Han Belier with the blood of the strongest evil king's eye and the blood of the Lucifer royal family. Chen Rui didn't expect that the "Dark Will" would have a miraculous effect, and suddenly remembered another "Passion Ring" from Lomont in the warehouse, this ring with the correct name should be called Ziyan Heart, which seems to involve ancient treasures, but unfortunately this mystery has not yet been solved.

I only heard Xia Ya's tone be cold: "You only need to wear the ring, you can possess Ji Ya without being affected by the power of devouring, succubi are naturally strong in attraction to men, but their desire for men is also more than that of ordinary women." When the conditions are ripe, completely possessing her body and mind may be a good way to subdue. Our current Jihua has reached a more critical link, there can be no mistakes, if it is determined that it cannot be subdued, then she can only be completely wiped out, so as to avoid future troubles!"

The indifference of easily manipulating the life and death of others seemed to remind Chen Rui that she was an indifferent and ruthless female lord in front of her.

Chen Rui frowned and said, "I have to complete this task, can't I hand it over to others?"

"The Dark Will was secretly escorted by Athena three years ago, and almost no one knows that it is in my hands, and I am not going to give it to a second person except you...... It's a task that only you can do. Xia Ya paused for a moment, showing appreciation, "Speaking of which, Ji Ya is just a mission, I don't know what reward to give you." ”

"Reward, no merit, anyway. Chen Rui rubbed his nose, "And I'm already a sheriff, if I am found to have abused my power and filled my pockets in the future, please ask Her Royal Highness the eldest princess to turn a blind eye."

"If you just look at the credit, there is no one in the Dark Moon who can compare to you......" Xia shook her head: "Now that the secret grain base has been successfully established, under the effect of that kind of dust, the effect of soil improvement is huge, and the crop yield is gratifying. The Dark Moon's thousand-year-old food crisis has been resolved in my hands, and you are a great contributor to it. The income of the princess shop you planned and operated far exceeded my imagination, becoming one of the most important sources of cash, and your follow-up planning will bring more income. Not only that, but the ore you brought back this time, plus the ones you brought with Toagul last time, is enough to build equipment to arm several armies. Not only did you rescue Tim and make the Saifer family even more desperate, but you also used a trick to trap the leader of the bandit group, planned a surprise attack on the entire Xilang Mountain, and finally cleared the hidden danger that had been silted up in the western passage for several years in one fell swoop. This time, he designed to take back the power of the sheriff......"

"Really?" Chen Rui's nose rubbed even more, it sounded like a lot of credit, but many of these were for his own purposes, and many of them were hand-in-hand......

Xia said so much in one breath, and sighed: "These credits are so great that I can't think of how to reward you......"

But what Xia said is right, the sheriff is already the highest position below the lord, and half of the wealth in the palace treasury from the princess square originally belonged to Chen Rui, and there is indeed nothing to reward.

Chen Rui muttered secretly and said with a smile: "We humans have a saying, which is called the master of high merit. Generally, at this point, even if you really let go of the power in your hands, it is difficult to die well. ”

There are countless examples in history, Han Xin, Yue Fei, Li Mu, Nian Qianyao...... Although there are many comprehensive reasons for the failure of these people, there is no doubt that the key word is high merit.

Thea's expression suddenly became solemn, and he stood up: "I, Sia Lucifer, swear by royal blood......"

"Wait!" Chen Rui smiled bitterly: "It's just a joke, the eldest princess doesn't have to be serious." ”

"If it's just a temptation, I'm sure you already know my answer. Xia frowned: "It is estimated that the people from the imperial capital will arrive in a few days, and they must be cautious at that time, no matter what, they must kill the Beelzebub royal family in the bud of a possibility, especially the guy who wore the mask of devouring the god that night, he must be crushed to pieces!"

The undisguised strong killing intent in Xia Ya's tone made Chen Rui secretly chill, the secret of the secret room should be the biggest source of murder, and it seems that the identity of the "Beelzebub royal family" can only continue to be concealed.

The "law" of offsetting hatred with affinity, accumulate more credit now, and when she tells the truth, her resentment will also be reduced.

Xia looked at his flickering eyes, and suddenly her voice became a little low: "Do you really think that one day I will be a big fan of ...... Hurt you?"

"Value determines the meaning of existence. Chen Rui scratched his head, "This is what you said yourself, eldest princess, it seems that it was just before I went to Xilang Mountain." ”

When Xia heard Xilang Mountain, she seemed to be touched by something, and the ice and snow gradually melted in her eyes: "No, your value is not ......"

This sentence did not go on again, but Chen Rui clearly felt the rare softness in his purple eyes, and when he thought of the call in front of the wind chimes in the secret room, he unconsciously became soft in his heart, revealing a determined smile: "Eldest princess, since this is the case." Well, I think I've gotten the most haode reward. ”

Xia Ya's eyes trembled slightly, staring at his smiling face, and suddenly said lightly: "I have to say, you are really good at impressing women, Your Excellency the Sheriff." It's a pity that I'm not Athena, put away your little means. ”

What and what, it's rare to feel a little confidant...... A woman who doesn't understand the amorous ......

Chen Rui's expression froze, and he secretly thought that with the strange reasoning ability of this eldest princess, the explanation would only get darker and darker, and he said goodbye very depressedly, but he didn't notice the rare narrowness of Xia Zi's purple eyes. 【Set Sail】
