Athena walked over quickly, put down the wood in her hand, and came to him in surprise. She suddenly seemed to notice the stains on her face, and quickly wiped it with her hand. Unexpectedly, there was even more dust on her hand, and it suddenly became
He had a big face.
Chen Rui smiled slightly, took out a mirror, and shook it at her. Athena was so embarrassed when she saw the image of a hua-faced cat in the mirror, she hurriedly snatched it over, raised her arm and was about to wipe it, when she suddenly heard from the other side
The man shouted: "Don't move!"
Athena's movements were inexplicably stagnant. At this moment, she had no consciousness of resistance. In other words, she stopped her movements obediently.
Then, holding a soft towel in one hand, he carefully wiped away the dirt and sweat for her.
Based on Athena's fighting instinct, she should have clasped this hand immediately and performed a clean over-the-shoulder throw, or went around behind her to perform a cross choke. However, at this moment, none of her fighting reactions were effective, and she raised her arm.
Just like that, frozen in mid-air.
Feeling the gentleness of that movement, Athena's breathing became more careful. On the contrary, her heartbeat became increasingly violent.
Chen Rui's heartbeat was also increasing. He took a deep breath and suppressed the urge to hold her in his arms. Now is indeed not the time to fall in love. After those two tests, he will never
It will leave regrets for both myself and her. If our love lasts for a long time, how can we stay together day and night?
There is a kind of tacit understanding between two men and women who have feelings for each other. I believe she understands it in her heart.
"This house is perfect." Chen Rui took back the towel and changed the topic to the wooden house.
Athena woke up from her "stiff" state like a dream, and was a little disappointed, but seeing his bright eyes and sincere praise, her mood became better again.
"Oops, the cabin must be built before dark!"
Chen Rui's words reminded Athena, and she immediately started to work regardless of the heat on her face. Naturally, Chen Rui would not let her be busy greeting Diudiu alone, and started moving together.
Finally, as night approached, the cabin project was successfully completed.
Athena's cabin was originally a single room. With the help of Chen Rui and Diudiu, the cabin was expanded into two rooms, with a partition in the middle.
At night, a fire was lit outside the cabin. Chen Rui cooked barbecue for Athena and Diudiu to eat, while telling some interesting stories. Diudiu also performed impromptu transformation performances from time to time. Watching Athena reflected in the firelight
With a red face and a happy smile, Chen Rui looked at the cabin behind him again, and a feeling in Chen Rui's heart became clearer.
That's the feeling of home.
The next day, Chen Rui woke up after a good sleep. He felt that his mental and physical condition were surprisingly good. After saying hello to Athena, he entered the super system. The spiritual energy is now close to 400,000, which is definitely enough. Chen
Rui didn't waste any time, once again chose the hundred times time and the rules of the angry sea, and entered the training ground.
This time, facing the oncoming huge waves, Chen Rui seemed much more calm. He chose a highly suitable reef and punched while resisting the impact of one wave after another. He had practiced so well last time.
In the final stage, he had already vaguely grasped that special mystical understanding, but unfortunately his time was limited. In the battle with Kulia, although he only tried his skills in a small way and could only occasionally use this kind of power, his power was already evident.
Chen Rui noticed that the countless stardust in the status bar had become more refined. Recalling the changes in the Gang Realm, he realized something. The Gang Realm refines the body, the Evil Realm refines the strength, and now this kind of tempering in the angry sea is just right.
It coincides with the artistic conception of refining strength, so he can rise from the initial level of strength to fight high-level demons to the level of killing high-level demons in the middle level. Of course, the gold content of this "kill" is not high, and he needs further hard training.
Enlightenment.
While Chen Rui was under pressure and fighting against the huge waves with his fists, Athena was guarding outside the wooden house, with a pile of prey and fruits beside her.
Diudiu watched with salivation as Athena washed the red fruits cleanly in the water she fetched, and then trimmed the prey one by one...
"Great hostess, can you give me some more fruit?"
Now Athena has a certain immunity to the word "mistress" and shook her head: "Didn't you just eat it? This is a rare glass fruit. There are only the last ones in the entire green leaf forest.
It's for your master."
Diudiu drooled brightly and said flatteringly: "Mistress, give those glazed fruits to Diudiu, and Diudiu will tell you what happened in the mine that night."
If Chen Rui hears these words, he will definitely give this greedy guy a good beating for asking for glory for just a few fruit sellers! Even though the person Diudi betrayed was the "hostess", he can't tolerate it!
If Xiao Luo was here, she would definitely use more food to lure the amoeba to tell more truth, but Athena was different. She frowned, then shook her head and said, "Chen Rui said
, told me a month later that there are still about twenty days left, I believe him."
The cunning amoeba rolled his eyes and started talking to himself. Of course, most of them were bragging about how brave and skillful he was in killing the three-headed hell dog. Finally, he returned to his old business, posing as a ghost dragon to scare away all thieves.
Athena listened very carefully, especially when she heard the part about Chen Rui, she seemed particularly serious, with a strange look in her eyes. However, what left Diudiu speechless was that after listening to this part, the hostess vividly
After the thrilling and exciting story, he still held back the fruit.
In desperation, Master Diudiu could only continue to drool to satisfy his cravings. It seemed that the mistress was even more cunning than the master. She tricked Diudiu into telling the story, but refused to honor the reward!
Chen Rui, who was in the angry sea, naturally didn't know about the little episode outside. At this time, he was still immersed in the hard training of fighting against the stormy waves. Although the speed and intensity of his punches were much better than last time, human power could not compete with nature.
After resisting the power of heaven, he was exhausted again soon after. He had to come down from the reef and use the cover of the reef in the sea to recover his star power, and so on.
Chen Rui has a feeling that these rules in the training ground are not simulated nature, but the real force of nature. Is the super system that can exert such power itself some kind of rule? What if one day, it can
Really understand or even surpass these rules, then"
This occasional thought was only fleeting in his mind when he was resting, and his real energy was focused on fighting against the waves.
"Aurora Bomb"
The white ball of light rushed straight towards the waves, repelling all the sea water along the way, and kicked up countless splashing water. The trajectory was like a straight dragon. However, the Aurora bomb in the impact of the huge waves was only
After rushing out for a certain distance, the power gradually dissipated.
"Broken Yuan Dao"
The power of Po Yuan Dao is not only as sharp as a sharp blade on the surface, but also has that invisible sharpness. It was this "invisible sword energy" that killed Kuria. Even Pagliu was caught off guard at the beginning.
He also hit the road. The Po Yuan Dao fell on the soft water. The sea water rippled to both sides with a straight line about one meter long as the center, but it returned to its original state in the blink of an eye.
Chen Rui has forgotten the time, and all his energy and energy are focused on this kind of hard training that constantly challenges the limits.
At dinner time, after eating the barbecue, Diudiu still did not give up his coveting of the glass fruit, and continued to tell the story of his adventures with his master in front of Athena. However, because Diudiu did not follow Chen Rui for a long time,
To put it bluntly, there are only three things: a long night of fierce fighting with Cerberus; meeting the terrifying Lennon; and pretending to be a ghost dragon for the second time.
Athena still listened with great concentration. In the end, Diudiu still didn't get the glass fruit, so she could only enter the dream while drooling eagerly.
The next morning, Chen Rui ended his training in Nuhai. After eating the food and fruits prepared by Athena, he immediately fell asleep, completely unaware of the sad eyes on the side. After waking up, it was already approaching night.
After replenishing some food, we continued into the training ground.
Four days in Luyelin passed in the blink of an eye. Chen Rui did not enter the training ground after waking up this time. For him, these days were like losing half a year of spiritual energy that was originally close to 400,000. In the meantime, Chen Rui transformed again.
A batch of waste mines now have a total spiritual energy value of 600,000, which is enough for use.
Chen Rui doesn't know what level of strength he has reached now. He only knows that his star power and body have reached a bottleneck. If he continues to rely on this kind of training, he will not make much progress. However, if he faces Cooley at his peak strength now,
Ya, he has absolute confidence to kill it.
When he walked out of the house, he saw Athena coming back from the forest carrying the prey and putting down the prey and the collected fruits. In the past few days, Athena had been taking care of him silently without asking a single unnecessary word.
Hunting and preparing food, Zhuo Jie "This seems to be what a man should do," Chen Rui blushed rarely.
Athena stepped forward with an expectant look in her eyes: "Chen Rui, your inheritance is over?" "It's only a small part." Chen Rui looked at this delicate face that he had not seen for two hundred days.
, without any polite words like thank you, "From now on, for everything I do, don't ask me why. I will give you an answer when the time comes. Athena, can you promise me?"
?, Athena nodded seriously and said: "There are still twenty days left in your promise. This girl remembers it clearly, but in total, there is only more than half a month left before Araux's agreement.
Chen Rui looked at Athena for a while and suddenly smiled: "You are now close to the high level of a high-level demon." "Almost, thanks to your eternal potion. Yesterday, when I was practicing my sword, I felt
The power inside the body undergoes a strange change, with strength, speed and other abilities leaping forward again, as if drinking a black potion again. This should be the resonance and effect of the full set of eternal potions you said
Right., "It's hard to believe that when I left Darkmoon City, I was just a high-level demon who had just advanced to the early stage, and now I'm close to the high-level." Athena's red eyes stared deeply at Chen Rui one by one.
The extremely precious Devil Fruit, and the complete set of eternal black potions that have not appeared in thousands of years, all come from the efforts of this man.
"However, this kind of progress is too fast. The power that is completely dependent on external forces is not as solid as one's own cultivation. It requires constant hard work and actual combat to assimilate and consolidate this power.
, Athena is quite experienced in spiritual practice, she did not get carried away, and gave herself a very accurate position.
"That's right." Chen Rui nodded, "Bring your sword and follow me.
