In the imperial capital, Chen Rui took a sum of funds provided by Obsidian and set foot on the portal to the "human world".
The financial resources of an empire are naturally far greater than those of a territory. Obsidian's move was quite generous, directly throwing out one billion black crystal coins. To pay such a huge sum of money to a human being who had only just come into contact with it, it has to be said that this regent is still
Very courageous. However, Chen Rui knows very well that this number is far from the opponent's bottom line. It can be said that it is a kind of temptation.[..com]
Chen Rui claimed that the injection of this capital was far more than his original plan and could activate most projects, so it could be returned as soon as half a month. The interest rate was 10%. Due to the high investment, Obsidian Half
You can make a net profit of 100 million per month, and this rebate rate is already quite impressive.
Chen Rui left the imperial capital and did not return to Dark Moon, but went to a mysterious place.
Rainbow Valley.
Compared with the poetic name of Rainbow Valley, the place where Chen Rui is located can only be described as "poor mountains and harsh waters".
It's huge, sinister, and desolate. Except for a few seven-colored flowers that I saw occasionally, which is barely a highlight, there's nothing of value at all.
However, the origin of Rainbow Valley is not because of how beautiful the scenery here is, but because it is said that every time a rainbow appears here, a mysterious valley will appear, and when the rainbow disappears, the valley will disappear again.
Chen Rui came here naturally to repair the Requiem Fruit of the Heart of Elements, but there is no fixed time for the appearance of this kind of rainbow. The interval may be months, years or days. When there is no rainbow, the mysterious valley
No trace will appear.
When Chen Rui came, he didn't see a rainbow. Naturally, he couldn't see the legendary Rainbow Valley. He was not the first person to explore in normal times, but now he is the only one here, because thousands of years ago
No one who came to explore gained anything, and over time, no one was willing to waste time.
Unlike those adventurers who are purely curious, Chen Rui came here with a certain purpose. However, this was completely different from the "artificial treasure" he created in the Dark Moon. He did not find any magic circle or anything like that, but he still did not give up.
, took out the tent I brought with me, and stayed here.
A whole day passed, and still nothing was found, and no rainbow appeared.
Chen Rui has obtained the true transmission of Pagli's Wulong language inscriptions, and has gained a lot of knowledge about magic arrays in the Artifact Maker's Alliance, especially the mysterious magic arrays in the ancient magic tower, which are not limited to the scope of instrument making.
.The rainbow is probably the trigger of some kind of magic circle, or the appearance caused by triggering a certain key point. Regardless of whether the trigger exists or not, the Rainbow Valley definitely exists, but it is usually hidden and cannot be found.
It's just a teleportation or an entrance to space.
As someone who is proficient in magic circles (you can almost say that), Chen Rui has a vague feeling that it is too "natural" for him to get nothing in the valley. It seems that everything is produced under the guidance of the environment and conditions.
There are some traces of chiseling. An ordinary adventurer or magic circle researcher would not feel this way.
Of course, it cannot be ruled out that it is some kind of hallucination.
If this feeling is true, then every plant and tree you see now may even be a hidden part of Rainbow Valley itself. In other words, this "magic circle" has been perfectly integrated into nature, with almost no flaws.
If it was set up by man, then the person who set up the magic circle.
．
．
…His attainments have simply reached the point of being unpredictable.
With this hypothesis in mind, Chen Rui began to pay attention to some details and record daily natural changes, such as the shadow of the double moon, the direction of the wind, the position of the hills, etc.
He spent another day entering the refining room and connected to the training ground's 100-fold time rule. This time, he did not practice or make equipment, but used the dragon language inscriptions in his mind, the knowledge of magic circles and the production of equipment.
The notes and materials of the Artifact Masters Alliance were carefully sorted out, and corresponding experiments and calculations were conducted in the refining room.
When Chen Rui withdrew from the refining room, his view of the valley changed again. After applying the calculation results to reality, he searched all the way and finally found a "spot" in a rotten pool.
”.
This point does not trigger the emergence of Rainbow Valley. It may be just an auxiliary node of little use in the mysterious space. However, for Chen Rui, it is a major breakthrough and fully proves the feasibility of the idea.
In the next few days, Chen Rui devoted himself to research and calculation, and found more points one after another, some in caves, some buried deep under the roots of big trees...
After many deductions using the time rules in the refining room, these "points" were finally connected into veins, and after trying to activate the entire "surface." After countless failures, an elliptical passage was finally successfully opened.
Like a door.
This passage is not like a transfer point, but an entrance to some kind of space. Unknown space is a very dangerous concept, and there is a danger of being caught in the turbulence of space at any time. After this entrance is opened, it immediately begins to shrink at a speed visible to the naked eye.
, in an instant it was only the size of the mouth of a water tank.
This kind of passage is a temporary "variable." It is quite random. It will take a lot of effort to open it again next time. Chen Rui gritted his teeth, swayed, and rushed in.
As soon as I rushed into the space channel, I felt that my body and soul encountered an irresistible force. I was so dizzy that I could not see anything clearly. I only felt that the world was spinning and twisting. This twisted feeling continued.
After nearly half an hour, it gradually disappeared.
After returning to normal, Chen Rui's internal organs were churning and he almost vomited. When he calmed down, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.
Looking around, there is greenery everywhere, clear water can be seen in the mountain streams, the air is filled with the freshness and fragrance of plants, there is a light mist in the woods ahead, and the sweet singing of birds can be heard from time to time.
Chen Rui suddenly thought of a sentence in his mind: "The clouds are green as if it is raining, and the water is sluggish with smoke." It is completely different from the previous appearance of poor mountains and harsh waters, and the beautiful scenery in front of him is like a fairyland.
This should be the real Rainbow Valley!
However, this "wonderland" is not simple, it can be said to be startling at every step. Chen Rui can feel that there are irregular and dangerous "circles" everywhere. It is dozens of times more complicated than the outside. If you walk rashly, the lightest consequence will be to be teleported.
Get out of this space.
From the current position to the woods in front, there are at least three dangers that cannot be avoided, and they must be "cracked" step by step. This dangerous context has become an "element" that is integrated with Rainbow Valley. It is extremely profound, and it is definitely not.
A simple magic circle can be compared. Even if Chen Rui has the experience of entering here, he cannot solve the secret in a short time. He can only use the stupidest method to solve it one step at a time. Fortunately, he has a large amount of it in his storage warehouse.
You can also use the time rules to research the food, and slowly and steadily search for the Requiem Fruit.
At the same time, in a strange house.
A graceful figure in a long skirt controls a strange instrument two meters away in the distance.
"This is the last piece of top-quality Thunder Fire Crystal. It will begin to soften after being pressurized for about three hours. This time, we must grasp the heat and the best timing to extract the purest trace of the power of the composite elements." (
Note to self)
"Will you succeed?" (Doubt)
"Of course it doesn't matter who this young lady is?" (Confident)
"Thunderstone is the most unstable crystal, what if it fails again?" (worry)
"If I fail again, I won't take a shower for a week or even a month!" (gritting teeth)
"It will definitely succeed!"
The white jade-like finger pointed at the mirror...it turned out that the conversation just now was all from the same person.
At this time, the huge crystal ball on the side gave off a little red light and flickered.
"Wait! It seems like some little bug has broken in? It's strange, there doesn't seem to be any explosive experiments these days... Never mind! It will disappear soon anyway."
The little red dot on the crystal ball started to move.
"The little bug actually moved forward, and there was a big gift waiting in front. It has a ten-second countdown to disappear, one, two, three..."
"Eh? It still won't disappear? Then give you one more minute. If it doesn't disappear within one minute, I will cut off my favorite nails!"
(The red dot still exists)
"The last time! If it's still there in ten minutes, then I won't have lunch for a while!"
(Ten minutes later, the red spots still haven’t disappeared)
"You're so lucky? I'll give you one last chance! Anyway, there are still three hours to extract the elements, so it's time to have some fun first... half an hour! I'll bet on my dinner tonight!"
(Half an hour later, the red dot actually moved on.)
"Is it a day of divine blessing that increases luck? Humph! Even that magical blessing can't escape the fiery flames in front of it. The poor little bug originally just disappeared, but now it will disappear forever! The last hour! Bet on it
I don’t want this little sister’s breakfast tomorrow!”
(In less than an hour, the red dot passed through the fiery flame formation again and continued to move forward.)
"Woooo..." Damn insect, I'll give you one last chance..."
"……."
Chen Rui didn't know that he had successfully defeated a certain young lady several times. He finally reached the woods and began to search for the whereabouts of the Requiem Fruit.
Requiem fruits generally grow in places close to water sources. When Chen Rui searched along a stream in the woods, he unlocked two more magic circles but found nothing. Instead, the surrounding environment underwent strange changes.
He couldn't find his way back. Chen Rui, who was lost, wandered around blindly for a while like a blindfolded fly before discovering a spring in front of a deep cave.
This spring exudes a strange aura, which makes Chen Rui feel familiar, the spring of resurrection!
There is actually a Resurrection Spring in Rainbow Valley. This is not the artificial life spring he had in the Blue Pond Mountain Village. It should be a real natural Resurrection Spring.
Chen Rui thought about it and searched around the cave. Finally, he saw a blue plant under a rock wall with four walnut-sized purple fruits hanging down. This shape was very consistent with the requiem fruit!
Not only that, but there is a complex magic circle in front, which seems to be able to maintain growth and protect it. Chen Rui was studying this magic circle when a muffled sound suddenly came from the distance, as if something exploded.
Chen Rui was startled. At this moment, there was a strange distortion in the space, and a figure appeared.
"Damn guy!"
It was a female voice, and her tone sounded gritty, as if she had some deep hatred.
"Not only did they ruin my most important experiment and prevent me from taking a shower for a month, but they also shamelessly took away my three-day ration! This is simply unforgivable!"
This is a slender young woman, wearing a long skirt, with a curvy figure. Although it is not as good as Isabella's "weapon", she looks plump and well-proportioned. Her long purple hair is casually tied up in a bun, and her facial features are delicate and delicate.
Exquisite, wearing a pair of glasses, full of intelligence and amazing beauty.
However, the face of this intellectual beauty was filled with bitter anger. What was strange was that the beauty just casually stepped into the center of the magic circle. The magic circle that was supposed to explode seemed like a kitten.
Generally docile, there was not even the slightest sign of activation. Chen Rui was certain that if he had stepped in like this, he would have been shattered to pieces.
Unless, this magic circle has some kind of strange ability of "intelligent recognition", that is to say, when it was set up, it has been given the highest law of some "exception", and this "exception." is the person in front of me.
Beauty.
What surprised Chen Rui even more was that she angrily accused her of ruining the experiment? Depriving the young lady of being unable to take a bath? She also took away her... rations for three days?
Does this have anything to do with me? Chen Rui felt baffled. It was obviously the first time we met!
This innocent guy didn't know that he had become the target of a "bet". Not only did he "win" three days of food and drink, but he also caused a certain young lady to completely fail that important experiment while she was distracted.
.
At this moment, the analytical eye of the super system displayed the information of this beauty.
Race: Dragon (Fairy Dragon).
Comprehensive strength assessment: judgement.
Fairy... fairy dragon? Chen Rui was immediately startled. Even when he saw the crystal dragon Jacob in the Crystal Valley, he was not so horrified.
How many fairy dragons are there in the Demon Realm?
Could it be...
Chen Rui's little heart began to beat violently.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw silver light flashing all over the sky. He had no time to react and fell to the ground, with strong silver electric sparks all over his body. His body was quickly engulfed by a strange elemental power.
Erosion, this elemental power is not a pure wind element, but a mixed force of wind, fire, and dark elements. It spreads rapidly in the body like a spider web, instantly destroying his resistance ability and almost moving.
No.
Compound magic! It is a combination of three systems and can be cast instantly without any preparation. This is almost beyond the cognitive realm of magic practitioners!
The combination of three series of elements is by no means a simple effect of triple superposition. Although Chen Rui has the characteristics of resisting magic and attracting spirits, which can greatly reduce the damage and effectiveness of magic, facing this terrible three-series composite magic, he still cannot
To resist, he quickly launched teleportation, pulled away, struggled and shouted: "Wait a minute, listen to me first,..." (To be continued)
