Of course the "little princess" is not Alice, but Veronica.!
Father Lal is one of Veronica's teachers. Although he is not very strong and has just touched the edge of the pseudo-saint, he is good at military strategy, knowledgeable, and good at astrology, geography, and identification.
Various "miscellaneous arts" such as herbalism, and also took charge of the treasure map of a secret vault of the former royal family.
Although the Yunteng Empire perished a long time ago, it was one of the former holy empires. The Yunteng royal family has never been extinct, and there are still a group of loyal followers.
These followers are different from the Black Death followers who believe in evil gods. They are the true loyalists of the royal family. Most of them are opposed to the alliance between the royal family and the mysterious church. Regea (Papa Lar) is one of them. At that time, Veronica was just
The teenage princess was selected by the mysterious church as the "favored one". Legia and others who strongly opposed this matter wanted to escape with Veronica, but in the end they failed and were captured. Veronica
In order to save the lives of Legya and others, Ka proactively agreed to participate in the ceremony of the gods, but Legya and others were expelled.
On the way, Legya and others were encircled and suppressed by the Church of Light and were seriously injured. In order to keep the secret of the treasure map. When Legya and two companions escaped to this border town, they were summoned by the referee sent by the church.
catch up.
With the enemy outnumbered, the three Legea were forced to flee into the depths of the desert. The referees were still in hot pursuit, and finally a decisive battle began in the desert. At the critical moment, the dream oasis suddenly appeared, and everyone mistakenly entered it.
In the Phantom Spring area, except for Legia, who was the least poisoned, all the enemies and friends were killed by the poison.
Legea barely escaped, changed his name to Lal, and lived in seclusion in this border city. However, due to the poison of the phantom spring water in his body, he could not get rid of it despite all possible means, and his strength gradually weakened.
Over the years, he has had a rough life. He has participated in adventure groups, worked as a guide in the desert, and was once captured by sand bandits. With his knowledge and wit, he improved the desert boat for the bandits, and finally left the bandits' den safely.
Chen Rui appeared before and used "Divine Favor" to dispel the toxins on Legya's body. However, the Crown of Thorns was also recognized by Legya, and he increasingly believed that it was related to the church. In order to eliminate the root cause, the resourceful Legya first fought with this "
The church's top leaders made a false promise and took Chen Rui to Shima Town, deliberately inducing him to conflict with the bald man in the shipyard. He left behind a special secret message he had learned from the bandits, which meant that a "big fish" had appeared.
On the desert boat, Legeya took the initiative to point out that bald Okafor could do it, and reminded him to be careful when eating and drinking. After Chen Rui showed his divine favor, he poisoned the water bag and wanted to use the hands of the sand bandit to kill this big man.
The enemy is completely eliminated.
Unexpectedly, all these calculations fell into the eyes of the other party, and even more unexpectedly, this person actually "summoned" the soul projection of the little princess Veronica!
Soon after, the desert ship named Red Sand embarked on its voyage again.
It stands to reason that such a large ship cannot be driven by Chen Rui and Legeya alone, and it requires at least ten crew members. However, the death of the bandits does not mean that Chen Rui has no crew members. Although these crew members are "
Although he was a novice in "Sailing on the Sand Sea", he quickly mastered the essentials, and the speed of the Red Sand was even faster than usual.
Of course, these crew members are sand people. In this desert with extremely strong earth element, the power of sand people is more powerful than at sea.
"Legea," Chen Rui frowned: "Just now you heard me and Veronica say that I completely destroyed the main altar of the Black Death and joined the mysterious church. Almost all the senior officials of the Yunteng Empire are dead. You can
They say that the Yunteng royal family no longer exists. Speaking of which, I am still the enemy of the royal family..."
Legeya interrupted Chen Rui: "My lord is wrong. They are Black Death Apostles and are no longer descendants of the Yunteng Emperor. Her Highness the little princess is the only one. To be precise, she is the little princess who was saved by your lord."
"Even so, didn't Veronica say that you are completely free?"
"My lord, please don't underestimate the previous oath. It is the highest loyalty oath of our Yunteng royal family."
Chen Rui knew that Legeya was not lying. The oath Legea swore has formed a master-slave spiritual link that appears in the super system: "I understand, but as long as you are willing, I can easily lift it with my power. Let me tell you.
, in fact, I do not belong to this sunny world, do you understand?"
"Since the demise of the Yunteng Empire, we have been walking in the darkness. The guardian's loyalty covers any time and anywhere. If you remove the power of my oath, then not only the oath and loyalty will be dissipated, but also me.
life.”
Legeya said stubbornly: "I am loyal to you, not because of your strength, but for the sake of the little princess. You are the most important person to the little princess, and you are also her highest guardian. Of course, if
If you don't like my strength and loyalty, you can kill me at any time."
Chen Rui thought of Veronica's "most important person" line when she introduced him, and sighed: "Okay, I officially accept your allegiance."
The Yunteng Empire has been destroyed for a long time. Anyone who can become a guardian without being a Black Death Apostle can be said to be an absolute die-hard loyalist.!
Leigeya has a tenacious temperament and is resourceful. If it weren't for the absolute power gap, Chen Rui might have fallen into his trap before.
"Thank you, sir." Legeya solemnly bowed.
"Okay, I don't need to say anything else. I came to the Black Prison Desert this time to find a dream oasis for two purposes. One is the Fire Crystal Sand, and the other is the Phantom Ice Spring. Both of these things are very important to me.
, it can be said that you are determined to win. I want to hear your suggestions."
"I have only seen the Fire Crystal Sand in some ancient books. It is a rare treasure that combines the essence of fire and earth elements. Its function is unknown, and I don't know if it is in an oasis. I have witnessed the Phantom Spring with my own eyes.
However, I am not sure whether the Phantom Ice Spring is formed inside. I am only sure of one thing, that is, like the Dream Oasis, the Phantom Spring water can move freely, its position is not fixed, and it can also become invisible. It gives me the feeling that it is...
It’s like some kind of living creature that’s preying on you.”
"Living creature?" Chen Rui was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that the Phantom Spring water could actually move and become invisible. It was indeed worthy of the name "Phantom".
"Let's talk about the Dream Oasis again," Legya said solemnly: "I have joined a certain desert adventure group over the years, and have gradually become familiar with the terrain in this area. Later, the adventure group suffered heavy casualties during a mission and was disbanded. I was seriously injured.
, and due to toxins, I almost lost my strength, so I started working as a desert guide. For more than ten years, because I have stayed in this place for a long time, I also have some sense of smell to seek good luck and avoid evil. In addition to the original
Apart from being chased by church referees, I only encountered the Dream Oasis once, but it disappeared before I could rush over. In the past few years, my legs and feet have become increasingly inconvenient, and little Jim has gradually been able to take care of himself.
So I no longer work as a guide. I know that your strength is extremely powerful, but I must remind you that you must not underestimate the Black Prison Desert. You must be cautious at all times, otherwise even if you can escape unscathed, you may not be able to escape.
Get what you want."
"I understand." Chen Rui nodded, "The sand people are now able to skillfully control sand ships. How about we rest where we are for a while and wait until we are full of energy before setting off at full speed."
"No, this journey must be progressed at full speed," Legeya said with an apologetic look: "Previously, because I mistakenly thought that you were the enemy, I also thought about what I should do if the bandits were unable to kill you... the so-called just in case.
, I used some tricks when pointing the way. Although we can reach the core area as quickly as possible in this direction, it is a very dangerous area with many terrifying creatures, such as sand scorpions, monitor lizards, and the most terrifying ones.
Demonic earthworm."
"From your point of view, I should applaud your exhaustive plan." Chen Rui shrugged: "But you don't have to worry, it's good to be able to arrive as quickly as possible."
Just as he was talking, Chen Rui suddenly frowned, and Legeya felt his vision blurred, as if some kind of displacement had occurred in the space. When he regained his vision, he found that the entire ship had retreated dozens of meters in an instant.
Where the ship was originally located, the ground had broken open, and a huge body appeared. Only half of this body was exposed, like an enlarged earthworm. The body was long and winding, with no limbs, but a terrifying mouthpart growing at the end.
"Desert Demon Earthworm!" Legeya blurted out, "Damn it, I actually alarmed this thing!"
The desert earthworm is a giant sandworm with infinite power. It usually lurks deep in the sand and attacks passing creatures. It is the most terrifying predator in this area. If it weren't for Chen Rui's power, the Red Sand was raised in time.
Air, the blow that broke through the sand just now can shatter the entire hull.
After the giant demon earth missed its blow, it let out a low whistling sound towards the ship moving forward. Legya's strength was close to the level of the False Saint (Demon Emperor). When he heard this whistling sound, he couldn't help but feel his hair grow.
cold.
I saw Chen Rui's figure instantly appeared above the huge body, and the whistling of the demonic earthworms stopped suddenly. It did not attack Chen Rui, but fled quickly into the sand pit, as if I had seen something terrible.
The desert earthworm also has a characteristic that it can escape from the ground. Its huge body can sneak deep underground very quickly, and there are no undulations at all on the surface of the sand dunes.
I saw Chen Rui slowly stretching out his hand and pulling it into the void ahead. A huge body emerged from the sand and was suspended in the air. Judging from the desperate struggle and panicked roar, it was obviously not "voluntary"
of.
Soon, the sandworm returned to the ground, burrowed into the sand, and exposed half of its body.
"If this thing is the most terrifying monster in this area, then I think no 'guest' will dare to approach us again before leaving this area."
Chen Rui's voice sounded next to Legeya again, and then under Legea's stunned gaze, the demon earthworm undulated in the sand in front, as if it was a guard opening the way.
