Watching Chen Rui leave on a flying dragon, Pagliu took out a bottle of jade wine, took a sip, and exhaled a stream of hot air happily: It turns out that the wine made by Little Betty is the most fragrant. ("")
The division of the spoils with a cunning human vampire is ultimately just a change in numbers. Anyway, Uncle Poison Dragon's private money is all deposited with the human vampire, and he doesn't know if he will be able to collect it back at that time.
However, these do not seem to be important. What is important is that Uncle Pagliu is not fighting as a dragon now. He has a cunning human beside him, Little Betty, who is barely the main palace, and several other credible people.
's accomplice.
He felt that among the tens of thousands of years of life and memory, it seemed that only this year had become particularly clear, even though when he was born, all he saw were eggshells.
By the way, we have to rush back as soon as possible to protect that guy's woman. Pagliu drank the bottle of wine in one breath and rose into the air. The huge black shadow flapped its wings and instantly turned into a small black dot, then disappeared.
In the night.
Chen Rui drove the two-legged flying dragon and flew all the way. Under the guidance of the magic map, it took him four full days to cross the Black Iron Mountains and reach the territory of the Blood Evil Empire.
Although separated by the Black Iron Mountains, the Blood Evil Empire still built the Moro Fortress on the other side of the Black Iron Mountains. It is not known whether it was to guard against the Shadow Empire or for other purposes.
Chen Rui successfully passed the fortress as the weapon maker apprentice "Richard", because at the weapon maker level, the badges obtained are unique and can be displayed through the special inspection tools of the tool maker alliance. If a person
It would be very bad if you were not careful and exposed the identity of the missing genius master "Arthur" from the demon world.
Chen Rui's goal is what the earth element king Moore said, the fertile soil in the Secorred Mountains in the far north. This treasure can not only help Moore advance to the peak of the Demon Emperor's strength, but it can also be used to create the artifact wand.
One of the missing materials in "Secret Shadow".
Secret Shadow can double the power of all magic, double the casting speed, and be immune to soul-type attacks. It also has a chance to ignore the opponent's magic defense or immune body's "Restriction Breaking Domain". It is simply the strongest tailor-made for Laura.
arms.
However, so far, the "Shadow" that has infiltrated into the Blood Evil Empire has not found the whereabouts of Mount Secorred, as if no one knows about this mountain at all.
Of course, "Shadow" has only been established for a short period of time. Currently, its main focus is on the Fallen Angel Empire. However, in the other two empires, both manpower and strength are quite insufficient. At most, they can only grasp some relatively common information.
, there is still no way to get access to some core confidential information.
Since he came to the Blood Demon Empire, he naturally didn't want to return empty-handed. Chen Rui thought about it and decided to go to the Blood Demon Empire's capital first to see if he could find out any useful information. If nothing was gained, he would try to explore further north.
It’s not too late to find it. The latest chapter of the Holy Temple
Chen Rui passed through Moro Fortress and came to a small town. He took a carriage all the way to the west. After a few days, he finally arrived at the town of Isildur, which was the only way to the imperial capital.
The town of Isildur was originally unknown, but after the First World War thousands of years ago, it became almost a household name in the demon world.
At that time, the Blood Fiend Empire of the Mammon royal family invaded the King of Fury's empire of the Samael royal family. They had been invincible before. But at this last tiny place leading to the imperial capital, they encountered an enemy that was dozens of times more powerful than the previous fortress or city.
tenacious resistance.
Sere, the first general of the Furious Royal Family, led 10,000 old, weak, sick and disabled men, and miraculously withstood the fierce attack of 300,000 Blood Fiend main force. However, due to lack of backup, the entire army was killed after holding on for ten days.
Although the Blood Fiend army captured the town of Isildur, they paid four times the price of the enemy. Then the Blood Fiend army marched all the way and broke through the imperial capital. The emperor died in a coma, and the Nu King Empire became history.
However, General Sere won the respect of everyone, including his enemies, and the Blood Fiend Emperor even made a bronze statue of him with his own hands.
In order to commemorate Serre's bravery, later generations composed a song "Song of Isildur" that has been circulated to this day. The last time, when the Blue Melt Territory was facing a desperate situation, Athena sang this song to Chen Rui.
.
Desolate and desolate, there is perseverance and unyielding, which represents her state of mind at that time.
That scene, just like the confession in the flames under Xilang Mountain, has been deeply ingrained in Chen Rui's heart. Athena is not as charming and charming as Jia, her strength and knowledge are not as good as Laura, and she is not as beautiful as Shia or Kathleen
, but, there is no doubt that she is her, she is unique, and she is also the woman he loves most.
Then, continue to become stronger, not for power, not for fame and fortune, just for protection.
Chen Rui took a deep breath and his eyes became firmer.
The carriage did not arrive directly at the inn, but stopped at the town entrance of Isildur, and the people on the carriage got out one after another. It was not that the service was not in place, but that there were a large number of troops at the town entrance to check the people entering the town, and there were several
A staff member is responsible for registration.
Chen Rui was slightly surprised. The previous towns and even fortresses were not so prepared. Could it be that something unexpected happened?
The interrogation soon came to his turn. The soldiers around him were watching eagerly, but the registered sergeant didn't even raise his head and asked directly: "Name, race, identity, destination."
"Richard, the great devil and an apprentice of an instrument maker, plans to go to the imperial capital to take the exam for qualifications as an instrument maker."
When the demon servant heard that he was going to examine the weapon maker, he couldn't help but raised his head and took another look at him: "If you have nothing special to do and need to stay here, it's best to go to the Imperial Capital and the Holy Cathedral through Isildur as soon as possible."
"Why?" Chen Rui asked curiously, but the demon waved his hand impatiently, indicating that he should pass quickly.
Chen Rui was suspicious and followed the people in front of him into the town of Isildur.
What comes into view is a huge bronze statue, which was cast by the Blood Evil Emperor himself for Sere Samael at that time. The sculpture has a square face and a resolute expression. It is wearing broken armor and is supported by a long sword with a curled blade.
Body. It is said that when General Sere died, he was in this posture. He remained standing without closing his eyes, and none of the soldiers of the Blood Fiend touched his body. They all walked around respectfully.
In front of the current statue, there are piles of flowers. It seems that many people come to pay homage. There are many people coming and going in the town, and the guard strength of Isildur Town is several times larger than that of an ordinary town. Patrols come and go from time to time.
Move around.
Chen Rui wanted to find a tavern to inquire about the news, but he didn't know that all the taverns in the town were closed. Later, with a little money, he learned from a little lemure that today was the 2370th anniversary of General Serre.
The anniversary of his death is the day of Isildur.
Originally, this kind of death anniversary did not require the army to go to war, but since the Blood Evil Empire invaded the Nu King Empire, it encountered endless resistance forces.
The Furious Royal Family is the most brave and proficient royal family in the demon world. Although the emperor fell, they never truly surrendered. Especially on the anniversary of the death of General Sere, many riots in the name of Sere caused the Blood Evil Empire a great headache. Every time
At this time, the whole country went into emergency martial law to investigate and arrest suspicious elements.
This situation lasted until the contemporary blood evil emperor Lei Chan came to the throne. Lei Chan also used bloody suppression at the beginning. It was the little prince Tris who changed everything. More than a hundred years ago, Tris didn't know what method he used.
, actually persuaded Emperor Lei Chan to invite Gustav, the young patriarch of the furious royal family, to be the first general of the empire, and named the anniversary of General Serre's death as the Day of Isildur, and mourning will be organized in the name of the official every ten years.
The General Assembly allows anyone to come to the town of Isildur to mourn the heroic general.
Sure enough, with this kind of tolerant policy, the turmoil in the Blood Evil Empire finally calmed down, and Emperor Lei Chan also showed extraordinary courage and entrusted Gustav with important tasks, becoming the first general in the true sense.
Chen Rui nodded secretly. Terese's skill of "blocking is worse than spacing" was used beautifully, and today happens to be the "official" memorial meeting held every ten years. No wonder there are so many troops "maintaining order". As for the suspension of the sale of alcohol, Firstly, it is to commemorate Sere, and secondly, it is to prevent some accidents caused by alcohol.
At this time, many people quickly gathered towards the street. Chen Rui heard someone whisper: "General Gustav is here!"
Is it the furious royal family of the first general of the empire? Chen Rui curiously followed the crowd to the entrance of the town, and saw a tall and thin man in armor, riding a black war horse, behind a small group of red armored cavalry.
Surrounded by them, they passed the checkpoint, then dismounted and walked towards the Serre statue.
Chen Rui has extraordinary eyesight and has already seen Gustav's appearance clearly. He has a slender figure, high brows, and facial features that are as sharp as a knife, giving people a cold feeling.
It's him! Chen Rui was surprised. Gustav was none other than the Demon Emperor-level powerhouse who followed the blood-evil young prince Tris during the last dark moon auction!
At this time, Gustav was already walking this way. Many of the onlookers were angry royals who came to attend the memorial ceremony. They all bowed to Gustav and saluted, and many of them even followed Gustav's guards.
Behind him, he followed towards the statue.
Chen Rui's heart moved, and he got mixed up with the people moving forward. He had always had a question, or guess, in his mind, and now he just opened his analytical eyes to confirm it.
Gustav came to the bronze statue, stopped, took the flowers from the guard's hands, and placed them under the statue. Then he knelt down on one knee and closed his eyes. Many people behind him also did the same.
The guards did not stop the following people from following this action, thinking it was already commonplace.
Chen Rui slowly approached, squeezed into the front row of the crowd, and finally entered the effective range of the Analytical Eye.
This "identical" object is the mysterious Demon Emperor strongman who almost killed Chen Rui in Luping Town in the Blue Melt Territory, and later gave Athena a pair of legendary wristbands - Bridget!
This would explain why Bridget "liked" Athena's singing voice at the time.
Song of Isildur.
The first general of the Blood Fiend Empire is actually a Xue Yan!
Water Element King Rambost said that day that the sacrifice of so many lives in Lupine Town was not only for the recovery of Dark Element King Hegel, but also for someone who needed dark element power to break through the bottleneck.
Dark power... Dark power proficiency?
Also, break through the bottleneck... Devil Fruit?
Looking at this furious royal strongman who once went by the pseudonym "Bridget", a new bold guess gradually became clear in Chen Rui's mind. At this moment, Gustave had finished the moment of silence, stood up, and suddenly looked back.
He glanced at Chen Rui, and his gaze was in the direction of Chen Rui. It seemed that this Demon Emperor-level powerhouse had keenly noticed the gaze behind him.
Chen Rui was surprised. After confirming the identity of "Bridget", his gaze just now couldn't help but bring out a hint of hostility. Gustav actually discovered this opponent's mental telepathy among so many people.
His ability is astonishing. You know, the Analytical Eye shows that Gustav is a powerful practitioner, and his mental power is only at the Demon King level!
Perhaps, this is not only the induction of spiritual power, but more of a subtle induction from instinct that has been experienced in many battles.
It is indeed a difficult enemy to deal with.
With Gustav's gaze, everyone around him immediately turned their attention to him. Soon, Chen Rui was "discovered" and became the focus of everyone's attention.
A guard immediately grabbed Chen Rui. Gustav looked at Chen Rui and asked, "Who are you?"
Although this voice is different from Bridget, that feeling makes Chen Rui even more sure that the voice can be changed with some skills or props, as if the true face is hidden, but that intuition is not wrong, it is him
!
Chen Rui looked extremely nervous: "General, spare your life! I am an apprentice weapon maker, and I was about to go to the imperial capital to take the test as a weapon maker. I happened to come here to remember General Leiser, and I was a little curious about the general..."
Gustave didn't give him a chance to explain, and said coldly: "Tell the people behind you not to affect my mood on days like this, otherwise..."
Chen Rui felt two sharp rays of light piercing his heart and spleen. He was indeed a little nervous. His heart immediately began to beat violently. It seemed that Gustav had misunderstood that he was some kind of surveillance person.
Gustavus, the first general of the empire, is afraid that life will not be as easy as outsiders imagine.
Chen Rui immediately lowered his head and did not speak again, thus diverting his attention to avoid arousing suspicion.
Many scornful, angry, and hostile looks from around him suddenly came towards him, making Chen Rui feel uncomfortable all over.
"Throw him out of the town." Gustav gave the order to the guard, ignoring Chen Rui and continued to turn around to face the bronze statue.
The guard roughly grabbed Chen Rui's neck and dragged him toward the entrance of the town. Chen Rui naturally did not resist, but secretly cried out that he was unlucky: "I just came in from this way, and I am about to be thrown out again. You should go to
Throw it out at the exit of the Imperial Capital...
After Chen Rui "landed" smoothly, singing rang out from the direction of the town, and the tragic and sad Song of Isildur floated in the sky, feeling desolate.
Feeling the sad atmosphere, Chen Rui was moved in his heart, as if he was still in Lu Ping, and couldn't help but slowly closed his eyes, just like Bridget did that day.
