As auctions and trade fairs approach, Dark Moon becomes more and more lively day by day. Full text without ads
This grand event attracted the attention of many people in the demon world, and the three Devil Fruits auctioned alone were enough to make many demons go crazy.
Devil Fruit is a rare fruit that only matures once every hundreds of years. It has extremely extraordinary significance for demons other than the royal family. In addition to increasing strength, it can also greatly increase potential, increasing the possibility of breaking through bottlenecks several times.
, and there is a very small chance of obtaining additional special abilities.
Even for the royal family, in addition to the potential, the increase in strength and the additional special ability are quite tempting.
In the history of the demon world, there have been lord wars for devil fruits. If this auction was before the Dark Moon Lord War, then the nearby territories would probably be coveted or even robbed. However, now Dark Moon has defeated Lan Rong and Chiyou.
The cooperation of large territories already has enough intimidating power.
In fact, Chen Rui now has so many Devil Fruits that he can sell them in large baskets at the wholesale market, but things are rare and expensive, so there won't be too many Devil Fruits for the time being.
Dark Moon's victory in the lord war and the holding of auctions and trade fairs caused merchants and merchants who had originally evacuated to return one after another. Those vacant shops were all filled through bidding a week after Shia announced the news.
The recruitment of new recruits is also going smoothly. The population of Darkmoon Territory is already large. This victory has greatly inspired people. Coupled with the generous treatment, the crowd is enthusiastic. There are long queues at the recruitment office every day. Of course, these applicants must go through
Only after certain screening and assessment can one officially become a member of the Dark Moon Army.
What surprises the Dark Moon soldiers and civilians the most is that the secret method of the treasures in the Blue Pond Mountains is indeed effective. All the transformed magical soils have been successfully planted with crops, and the growth situation is very gratifying, which is better than the only fertile soil in the territory.
It will be several times higher, which means that Dark Moon will forever get rid of its biggest weakness of food shortage and become truly self-sufficient.
The renovation of the water supply and sewage system in Darkmoon City was mostly completed before the Lords War. Now it has finally been completed. Almost every household has access to "tap water". This convenience has also given rise to the birth of many "magic devices".
Such as showers, automatic toilets, etc., and they were quickly popularized throughout the Dark Moon, which improved the quality of life in the entire city and surprised outsiders.
Seeing that their research results were finally successful and the drinking was promoted throughout the territory, the two masters Da Da and Skye showed relief. As the lord war approached this time, Dark Moon's people were panicked, and the special person from the Blood Evil Empire
Prince Reese once sent Montero, who was in the first stage of the Demon Emperor, to persuade Master Da Da to leave Dark Moon and go to the Blood Evil Empire to avoid trouble.
Master Da Da originally wanted to be moved, but he already knew that Tris was not a simple person, and the Blood Evil Empire would definitely not go there, but he would at least take Sasa out of the war-torn dangerous place of Dark Moon.
Sally, Skye's lover, insisted on staying because her brother Aldas was a die-hard loyal to the eldest princess Shia and would never leave in times of crisis. The seemingly indifferent relationship between brother and sister finally ended in times of crisis.
It was revealed. Skye thought twice and decided to stay. Putting aside Sally's relationship, "Agulie" had a favor for him and his daughter, so he had to do his best no matter what. Master Da Da gritted his teeth and simply said
Stayed.
The result of the final lord battle was beyond everyone's expectations, and the two masters finally breathed a sigh of relief.
As the new financial officer, Chen Rui has been very busy these days, including the renovation of the water supply system, the reorganization of shops, the management of the Cloak Club, the start of Delia's "Dark Demon", the affairs of the United Chamber of Commerce... he is very busy all day long.
, To this end, Shia also specially set up the Ministry of Finance, with Chen Rui as the top executive and equipped with many capable subordinates. However, because it had just started, he could not be a hand-off shopkeeper.
Of course, no matter how busy you are, it is definitely indispensable to take Athena and Jiya to study and "practice" together at night. The fully nourished female sheriff and maid look glorious and amazingly charming.
Although the characteristic of "Double Cultivation" can refine power, it has no effect on increasing the experience of the transformation state. The experience is still 0. Although the transformation state happens to be upgraded during sex, sex cannot truly achieve this state.
of improvement.
When practicing "Dharma" in the Dharma Realm, what is needed to transform the realm is "transformation". This realm is a bit confusing. The super system does not have a clear prompt. It is just like the previous Dharma Realm. There is a vague mysterious feeling in my heart. Once
Once you master this feeling, you can truly understand the mystery of transformation. All text without ads.
In addition to the newly acquired skills and buildings, a series of good things have been added to the spirit-controlling category and blueprint and formula category in the redemption center.
There are four types of redemption centers: potions, plants, spirits, and blueprints and formulas.
1. Potions: In addition to ordinary potions, there is also a full set of black potions including resurrection potions and life extension potions.
2. Plants: There are Pivot Fairy seeds, Gathering Flowers, etc., which are the main source of spiritual energy and the source of power for the entire super system. The Pivot Fairy is also the soul of the Star Garden.
3. Spirit-protecting categories: including scuttling insects, gluttonous vines, guardian vines and feather-winged butterflies. The first two are used more in actual combat and have time limits; the guardian vines are the treasure of protecting the house. Now Chen Rui is
Guardian vines have also been planted around the inner courtyard of the palace to protect the Shia sisters; as for the Winged Butterflies, they have no use for the time being.
There are two newly added types of Yuling this time,
1. Rejuvenation tree - Attributes: recovery, timing. Restores physical strength and magic power within the range of action. The effect can be timed. The maximum lifespan is one month. One tree costs 1,000 spiritual energy.
Due to the passive characteristics of the astral body, the Rejuvenation Tree should not be very useful to him, but it can be used to restore companions, and it has a very positive effect in military training or combat.
2. The fruit of the bestowal - attributes, the soul-controlling gift. Give the soul-controlling plant to a medium used by others. The maximum time is one day and 1,000 spiritual energy per piece.
The emergence of the gifted fruit has brought about a qualitative change in the functions of the spirit-controllers. For example, the feather-wing butterfly, which had never been used before, can now give an ordinary person who has not reached the level of the Demon King the ability to glide and fly, although there is a time limit.
, but under certain circumstances, it can play an unexpected role.
4. Drawings and recipes: The original artifact "Thunder Sound" has always been an indispensable treasure for Chen Rui in battle, and now it has increased to six types.
The first three are weapons, and the blueprints are all priced at 30 million spiritual energy.
Beiming (long sword type) - is particularly sharp, attacks are accelerated, sword proficiency is doubled, water and light magic damage is halved. It can absorb the power of the attacked during the attack, and charge up to activate the skill "Ten Thousand Flows Return to the Sect"
, water and light dual attribute sword energy damage. Damage will be automatically repaired and the owner must be recognized.
Judgment (epee type) - Double the attack power, double the defense power, quickly recover physical strength, and have a chance to stun the opponent when attacking. Attached skill: "Judgment", 50% chance of ignoring the opponent's defense, greatly increasing the crushing damage.
Can only be used once per hour. Damage will be repaired automatically, and the owner must be identified.
Secret Shadow (Wand) - Doubles the power of all magic, doubles the casting speed, and is immune to soul-based attacks. It also has the skill "Region of Breaking Limits", which has a chance to ignore the opponent's magic defense or immune body. It can only be used once per hour. Automatically repaired.
If it is damaged, the owner must be identified.
The latter three are armors, and the blueprints are all priced at 20 million spiritual energy.
Overlord Armor (heavy armor type) - greatly increases strength and defense, weakens, absorbs damage and converts it into physical strength. Attached skill: "Overlord Unarmor", greatly weakens the defense of all enemies within the range, and can lock the target unit for six hours.
It can only be used once and lasts for one hour each time. It will automatically repair any damage and the owner must be identified.
Xuan Jade Armor (Light Armor) - Increases movement speed, halve long-range damage, and automatically repairs damage. Attached skills: "Hot-blooded Halo", the speed of friendly forces within 100 meters increases, attack power increases, and auxiliary units can be locked for six hours.
It can only be used once and lasts for one hour each time. It will automatically repair any damage and the owner must be identified.
Fantasy Feather Shayi (common type) - Increases movement speed, quickly recovers physical strength, mental power and magic power, greatly increases magic resistance. Attached skill: "Flying the Wind", automatically triggers teleportation when receiving a fatal attack, and escapes danger.
It can be used only twice per hour. Damage will be automatically repaired and the owner must be identified.
Each of these six artifact-level weapons and armors made him salivate. Each weapon had its own characteristics, especially the Overlord Armor and Xuan Jade Armor, which even had a halo skills. Although they were expensive, his aura had already been
One hundred and sixty million, the price of the blueprints is not a problem, but it requires a lot of rare materials, which cannot be collected at the moment, and not even one can be produced. I hope that there will be gains from this trade fair.
In addition to the exchange center, the "spiritual link" related to the contract has also undergone new changes, but its enhancement and other functions also require faith crystallization. For now, we can only wait for the harvest from the Tower of Faith.
On this day, after Chen Rui handled some trivial matters from the United Chamber of Commerce, he returned to the office building of the Ministry of Finance. To his surprise, Jia was waiting for him in the office. At this time, Jia should be at her busiest time in Princess Square.
And she also brought someone with her.
This man was tall and had an unfamiliar face, but the fierce aura hidden between his brows gave Chen Rui a vague feeling of familiarity.
At this time, Jia bowed and said, "Master, Jia has something to ask you."
"oh?"
Chen Rui and Jia already had the closest relationship, but Jia seemed a little too polite now. With the level of spiritual connection between the two of them, Chen Rui felt that something was wrong. With a thought, his analytical eyes had opened.
Race: Gluttonous royal family, overall strength rating: s-(s+)
Chen Rui was shocked. If he met this condition, and Jiya had such an abnormal expression and address, the true identity of Demon Emperor Beelzebu was about to be revealed!
Jia's father, one of the leaders of the Blood Annihilation organization, and the King of Beelzebub who once had an encounter with Chen Rui in Crystal Valley - Azgalo Beelzebub!
Azgarro actually came to the Dark Moon in person!
The Demon Emperor-level sensing ability is quite subtle. Although Chen Rui's mood swings were only fleeting, Azgaro still caught them, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
"So that's it!" Chen Rui shouted, as if he suddenly thought of something, and shouted: "Graca, give me the layout of the trade fair immediately!"
Graça outside responded and hurriedly walked towards another office. Chen Rui murmured something, as if he had just remembered something, and said to Jia: "Jia, don't disturb me first.
I just thought about the trade fair."
"Yes, Master." Hearing Chen Rui's somewhat rude tone, Jia understood in her heart, felt relieved and bowed respectfully.
Chen Rui turned a blind eye to Jia and Azgalo, and walked around in the hall with a contemplative expression. This pretense was just to cover up the shock. Azgalo came to Dark Moon's
What is the purpose?
Although Azgarro, Jacob, and Manu besieged Kathleen and were defeated and fled, the strength of the peak demon emperor is here. Looking at the entire Dark Moon, the only demon emperors in the level are the earth element king and Cro
After the return of the Earth Elemental Heart, Belusi and the Earth Elemental King Moore have improved in strength, but they have only reached the peak of the middle stage Demon Emperor, and are still far from the peak Demon Emperor.
Even among the peak demon emperors, the gap between them is not small. Even if the earth element king breaks through to the peak demon emperor, he is still no match for Azgaro. Unless Pagliu can regain his strength, there will be no one in Dark Moon.
No match for this King of Beelzebub.
While thinking about it, Graça had quickly brought over the layout plan of the trade fair. Chen Rui made a series of marks on it, and it took him a long time to complete it. He nodded with satisfaction, and after giving Graça some instructions, he finally
Jia said: "By the way, Jia, you seem to be talking about something?"
Jia nodded and said: "I'm sorry to disturb the master's work. I brought a guest today and I want to introduce him to the master."
Chen Rui set his sights on the disguised Azgalo. As expected, Azgalo was not suspicious just now and had been waiting patiently. He did not show any sign of impatience and said politely: "The Financial Officer has many things to do.
, he is such a busy man. Please forgive me for any inconvenience."
"This guest is..."
Jia interjected: "Master, he... is Jia's long-lost father."
"Father?" Chen Rui was surprised. He didn't expect Azgalo to appear with this "real" identity, so he deliberately asked: "Didn't you tell me that your parents have been dead for a long time?"
There were tears in Jia's eyes, more for her mother Freya who passed away: "The thing is like this, when my parents and I encountered a group of thieves, my father and mother stayed to hold off the thieves in order to cover my escape.
I thought my parents had sacrificed their lives, but my father still survived."
Azgalo showed a kind look in his eyes and said excitedly: "My name is Gallo. I have been looking for Jia's whereabouts for these years. This time I came to Dark Moon for something. As a result, with the blessing of the devil, I actually let him go."
I found my long-lost daughter."
Chen Rui secretly sneered in his heart. He couldn't see that Azgalo still had such a talent for acting. It was good that he was Ji Ya's father, but for Azgalo, family ties were not much thicker than a piece of paper. If necessary
, he can kill his own daughter without hesitation, and Fatilu is the best example.
"So that's the case. However, no matter what Jia was before, she is now a slave given to me by Her Royal Highness the Princess. Even if you are her father, I will not let her go."
Chen Rui deliberately used the word "slave", deliberately widened the real distance between Ji Ya and him, and emphasized the relationship of superiority and inferiority - this is his bottom line. He can play tricks with Xue Yan, but he will never let Ji Ya
Ya ventured back into Azgalor's hands.
"My lord, I have misunderstood. Jia is much better here than wandering around with me. I still need to ask your lord to take care of me in the future." Azgaro smiled and said, "I came here today to get to know Jia.
Secondly, I have a huge benefit that I want to give to the Treasurer."
"Benefits?" Chen Rui knew that the drama was about to come, and frowned at Jia. Jia understood, and deliberately nodded affirmatively in front of Azgallo.
Chen Rui looked at Azgalo for a few times, then finally nodded and said: "Your Excellency Gallo, please sit down."
Azgaro winked at Jia, and Jia said: "Master, I came out of the princess's house temporarily. There are still many things that cannot be separated from the little princess. You and your father can talk here. I
I’ll take my leave now.”
Chen Rui nodded, thought for a moment, and asked everyone in the office to retreat, leaving only himself and Azgalo.
Azgaro used Jia's line to find him, and there should be no ill intentions for the time being. Otherwise, with the strength of the peak Demon Emperor, if he attacks directly in secret, even Chen Rui, whose true strength has reached the level of the Demon Emperor,
Unable to resist.
"Your Excellency Gallo, there are no outsiders now. If you have anything, you might as well just say it."
"Before that, I would like to take the liberty to ask, is your Excellency from the human world?"
Chen Rui shrugged: "Yes, as everyone knows, I am a human being, but as far as I know, I am not the only human being in the demon world."
"My lord, you have misunderstood. Whether it is the human world or the demon world, talented people are the real strong people." Azgaro smiled and said, "The reason why Dark Moon's economy is in today's glorious situation, Master Chen Rui is definitely the most critical.
The element of sex, just being an auction house is setting a precedent.”
This is not a secret. Many of Dark Moon's innovations are unprecedented in the demon world. Many people attribute this to humans. This should be the real reason why Shia puts so much emphasis on humans.
Weak in strength but extraordinary in mind, especially in economics, this is how the outside world evaluates human financial officers.
A person who is capable but weak in strength and does not need to worry about rebellion is the ideal candidate for his subordinate. Therefore, even Zhuo Che publicly expressed his intention to recruit Chen Rui during the battle in the wilderness of Lacey Town.
"Actually, I just copied some things from the surface world." Chen Rui shook his head gently, "It's not really a talent. I am very satisfied to be appreciated by the eldest princess and achieve my current status."
"My lord, you are too modest." Azgalo looked at him deeply, and suddenly asked calmly: "My lord, have you never thought about taking the next step forward?"
Chen Rui frowned: Is this solicitation?
Azgallo personally came to the Dark Moon and appeared as Ji Ya's father, just to poach people? This is too much to look down on him, a "mere" human being!
This father-in-law is not General George. Since he is here this time, no matter what, he must try to "entertain" him well.
ps: I would like to recommend the works of two friends.
1. Guan Sheng's "Xiu Zhen Pawn Shop" - a new work after "My Leisure Career as a Censor", is currently being collected and enriched.
2. "Dark Judgment" by Fat Panda - another masterpiece after "Getting to the Top", seeking support, love, cherishing and seeking are in the unspoken rules.
