Darkmoon City, the ancient terrace house of the Cloak Order headquarters, the backyard.
Miss Sasa is demonstrating to two good friends Eve and Elian a new gadget given by her boyfriend Da Da, a lighting beam that can absorb moonlight and emit various shapes.
"How interesting! Sister Sasa."
Seeing the surprised and happy looks of Eve and Elian, Miss Sasa's face shone brightly: "This is made by Da Da based on the inspiration of the flashlight that leader Agulie mentioned last time, but it is better than what the leader said." The function is many times more powerful. It not only looks good, but also has high practical value... Hey, Eve, why are you suddenly unhappy? No, I'll give you this to play with."
"It's not that my sister is unhappy, it's just that she misses you a little when you talk about the leader."
"Erianne!"
"Sister, are you sorry? Actually, I miss Mr. Agulie very much. I haven't seen him for a long time."
"Speaking of which, Leader Agulie is indeed very attractive, mysterious and powerful, but our Dada is even more attractive, with his short and fat figure, long nose, and sexy green skin..."
"..."
Not far away, Da Da was talking with Skye. The two were both top masters and cherished each other. They had become close friends.
"Master Da Da, have you heard?" The person who spoke was the dark elf Skye.
"Of course," Da Da nodded: "This is almost the biggest news in the tool making world in ten thousand years. I believe that no one in the demon world knows about it now. Even Master Nite's direct disciple, the master of dual-system proficiency Huo FuDe, has lost Give it to that person."
There was a strange sarcasm in Skye's eyes: "Now Nate shouldn't be able to sit still."
Da Da didn't pay attention to Skye's disdain when he talked about Nite, and just sighed: "Two quasi-legendary equipment, one legendary equipment. It's a pity that I couldn't witness the grand event of that final."
Skye nodded empathetically and said: "I heard that the genius shadow returned to the ancient magic tower in the imperial capital to create new miracles, but disappeared mysteriously and his whereabouts are still unknown. I have a strange premonition in my heart that this genius...may be related to ours. An acquaintance has something to do with it."
"Really?" Da Da glanced at him strangely, "I thought I was the only one who had such a premonition?"
The two laughed almost at the same time.
"Animals!"
In the dark moon, an angry voice rang out from the city sheriff's residence.
"Master of three-series tool making! Genius of the magic circle! Can this girl get any more famous?" The one who pointed at the moon outside the window and yelled was obviously his wife-widow-control bad teammate and cheap nephew Luo Meng.
However, this house is no longer what it was when it was first built. Not only is it surrounded by protective plants such as guardian vines, but it is also covered with various dragon language inscriptions. Even if Lomon howls at the moon with all his strength, the sound cannot be transmitted. .
Luo Meng's indignant look made Du Huilong seem to see himself who was also extremely jealous of this in the past, and added with gloating: "Not only these, this guy also has a master-level black potion. Didn't you just drink the whole set?" Eternal potion?”
"What a beast!" Luo Meng didn't have the slightest sense to be soft-spoken. He took a big sip of wine and sighed up to the sky. He had a tragic temperament of a hero who failed to achieve his ambitions, which almost made people cry, "Devil! Open your eyes and you can The almighty left eye that fascinates all women, take care of your poor believer! Why do I, a handsome and handsome royal family, have almost no luck in these years! Delia would catch me even picking up a beautiful woman the day before yesterday! No, I can’t be hung from a tree! I want the whole forest!”
"I always forgot to tell you." Pagliu was clearly the kind of person who would add insult to injury. "This guy went from being a weakling with no power to being the big devil he is today... It seems like it took less than a year, right? You are now He has just been promoted to the Great Demon King, and in terms of combat prowess, he is definitely not as good as him. I estimate that he will become the Demon King in less than a year."
"Pfft!" Luo Meng choked out a mouthful of wine from his nose. Just as he was about to continue to express his feelings of pure jealousy angrily, a pleasant voice came from outside the yard: "Athena, did you hear it? There was someone just now. What do you seem to be howling about?"
"That's right, Delia, she seems to be the goddess of good luck or something, and..."
Before Athena finished speaking, Luo Meng floated over like a gust of wind and took the things in their hands diligently: "Ah, you two beauties, you have worked hard at the night market, I am here to help you carry your things in."
"By the way, I just heard someone talking about the devil's charming left eye. Mr. Forest Lumberjack, did you hear that?" Delia took off her veil, revealing her beautiful face that had been completely healed, but her eyes were a little unkind.
"Dear Delia, you must have heard wrong. I'm talking about the devil's dreamy and moving right eye."
"Dudiu, I know you are hiding in the corner! Tell me, what did this person say just now? To be honest, I will give you a bottle of the best fruit wine I bought at the night market. Otherwise, you will be hungry for three days."
The last threat caused the amoeba to pop out immediately and transform into what Lomon looked like just now, imitating the movements and tone of voice vividly.
"... Even if I pick up a beautiful girl, Delia will catch me! No, I can't be hanged on a tree! I want the whole forest!"
Luo Meng: "..."
Seeing Delia walking over with a sneer, Luo Meng's face turned into the shape of a bitter melon - Almighty Demon God, open your omnipotent eyes and save your poor believers.
Athena looked at the farce of the enemies with a smile, and suddenly thought of the daily playfulness and joy between herself and that man, and deep longing rose in her beautiful red eyes - are you thinking of me too? My love.
Darkmoon City, the back garden of the palace.
The slim figure in a white dress stared at her reflection in the moonlight, silently.
The scene of the conversation with old Gauss in the conference hall just now still comes to mind.
"His performance in the weapon maker competition this time shocked the entire demon world! As for the Custer family, the new successor has been determined, the youngest Miss Celine. When I left the Shadow Imperial City, she He has contacted me specifically and expressed that he will do his best to support our plan."
Old Gauss said with emotion: "Originally, my evaluation of him was already high enough, but I didn't expect it to be too low."
Shia nodded slightly. Chen Rui once mentioned to her that the forging and armor-making techniques inherited from the great master could be trained and taught to some craftsmen. Before old Goss came back, "Arthur" became famous in the Shadow Empire Artillery Maker Competition. , the news of becoming the first three-series instrument-making genius in the demon world in ten thousand years has reached Dark Moon.
Shia was really shocked at that time, but now she seems calmer after hearing the "magic circle genius" added by old Gauss.
"In fact, he first came into our sight as the great master of alchemy, but the wisdom and talent he showed later made us almost forget about the biggest 'original intention', and it is only now that he has blossomed into a dazzling true light. "
Old Gauss sighed: "That's right, Her Royal Highness Princess, he has joined the Shadow Empire's Artillery Maker Alliance at the public invitation of Emperor Catherine. I originally thought he would leave the Dark Moon and directly
He joined the Shadow Empire, but he saved me and entrusted me to bring back those plans. It seems that his heart still remains in the Dark Moon, at least for now."
"That's true." In fact, Shia had already asked Chen Rui a similar question in person.
"Her Royal Highness, with Chen Rui's current ability and reputation, it is no longer possible to keep him based on Dark Moon's conditions alone. It can be said that if he goes to other places, he will have a better and safer development prospect." Old Gauss
He said meaningfully: "The reason why the eldest princess asked him not to do this is because our friendship and affection are still in his heart, but this friendship obviously cannot be maintained for a long time. If the eldest princess wants to realize her greatest wish, she must
I want to get his help, so I made a suggestion that goes beyond the rules...please don’t take offense, eldest princess."
"Gauss, if you want to say anything, just say it."
"Chen Rui is a man of extraordinary wisdom and ability, and he has such a strong inheritance. What's even more rare is that he attaches great importance to friendship and will not be swayed by ordinary interests. But things are unpredictable. As long as another force also gives him more
If there is a greater friendship and conditions that are more worthy of service, he will probably leave. To be honest, the bond between Dark Moon and him is not deep enough. Even his lover, Miss Athena, is not from the Dark Moon royal family. I
I thought... we should have a deeper relationship to bind him firmly to Dark Moon."
Shia raised her eyebrows slightly: "What do you mean..."
"Marriage." Old Gauss nodded affirmatively, "This is the best way. In fact, I can see that he treats the eldest princess..."
"Okay, Gauss, just pretend that I haven't heard of this, do you understand?" Shia suddenly felt an inexplicable anger in her heart. Although she knew that what Old Gauss said was very reasonable, she still couldn't help but feel this anger.
The voice suddenly turned cold.
Old Gauss shook his head: "Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess, is the Dark Moon Lord, and may be able to regain the throne from Obsidian in the future. It is indeed not suitable as a marriage partner, so can we consider using the little princess..."
The chill in Shia's eyes became even worse, and he directly cut off what Old Gauss said: "There is no need to talk about this matter anymore!"
Old Gauss's expression was stagnant, and he finally stopped talking. Shia felt that her tone was indeed a bit harsh, so she added: "You are tired after returning from the Shadow Empire, so Shia asked her to continue to follow Alice in taking care of the Princess House.
To avoid revealing Chen Rui’s identity, please go down and rest first.”
Old Gauss sighed and left.
Shia silently looked at her somewhat lonely shadow. She still remembered what the human man said when he first came to this back garden: The farthest distance in the world...
Closing his eyes, the man's voice before leaving rang in his ears again: "I would have done this even without General George's request."
Not only this, but also those hateful puns, hateful smiles, hateful everything...
Somehow, I miss this abomination a little bit, and as I miss it, I feel a lot more relaxed.
A voice came from the distance: "Jia, look at your feet, don't fall. Why are you a different person when you come back? You can even walk in a daze? Are you thinking about a certain man?"
"No, Your Highness, little princess, I just..."
"Okay, let's go quickly...sister! Jiya and I brought back delicious midnight snacks for you from the night market!"
Hearing Alice's call, Shia opened her eyes, and a faint warmth rose in her purple eyes. Perhaps it was due to the change in the moonlight that the shadow of the child became two. It seemed that she was no longer so lonely. (
