Xilang Mountain, Mining Office.
Tim carefully looked at the scout report presented by the family guard Bill.
Just a few nights ago, a scout came to report and found a large number of magical beasts in the air flying over, and it seemed that their foothold was somewhere in the Xilang Mountains. After he dispatched several scouts, reports of wyverns began to come in.
Bill asked carefully: "My lord, do you want to report this matter to Darkmoon City?"
Tim thought that Chen Rui's mount was a Wyvern, and there were several more, so he thought for a while: "I don't need it for the time being, you can tell the scouts to keep this secret strictly, and not to move rashly."
Bill nodded, turned and left, closing the door behind him.
"Good job. Tim."
Suddenly there was a voice in the room.
Tim didn't feel anyone coming in just now, and was taken aback, but he had already recognized that the voice belonged to Chen Rui, so he stood up quickly.
"Master, you are finally back." Tim bowed and asked tentatively: "Listen to the tone of the master, those wyverns..."
Chen Rui nodded: "You are very smart. If everything goes well, Dark Moon will soon be able to realize the vision of the Dragoon Legion. However, before that, you must not leak any news!"
Dragoon Legion!
Not a squad, but a legion!
Tim showed a look of shock. The Wyvern is not a regular aerial horned winged beast, but the strongest aerial monster in the war except for a few super monsters such as giant dragons. Even in the capital of the Fallen Angel Empire, there is only one It's just a dragon cavalry regiment, directly subordinate to Prince Obsidian himself!
"Tim understands, the master's ability... is really incredible," Tim said with sincere emotion: "By the way, there is another news to report to the master. Le Guin, the patriarch of the imperial capital Karon family, sent a letter to the regent King Obsidian for the death of his only son Alan. Resignation, Black Yao rejected Le Gu's resignation, and personally visited the door to appease. In order to calm the anger of the Karon family, Black Yao revoked Sergey's position as the deputy head of the Red Demon Legion, ordered him to think behind closed doors, and took Sergey back Part of the military power of his father, the second general of the empire Doron, was handed over to Suofu, the representative of the Karon family in the military. In addition, the Dark Moon Territory was also implicated. And this kind of time happened. As a punishment, from next month, the food aid provided by Chiyou Territory will be halved."
Chen Rui frowned: When Isabella arrived, she wanted to sanction Dark Moon's food aid in the name of tracking down the royal family of Beelzebub, but he got rid of it by making jokes, and then Sergey and Allen's "love killing" incident, the attention was diverted again, and he returned to the imperial capital in a hurry. Unexpectedly, in the end, Luo Zhi was responsible for this crime, and imposed bloodless and cruel sanctions on An Yue.
The food aid has been cut in half. If it happened before the establishment of the food base, there will inevitably be a large-scale famine in the dark moon. At that time, the hearts of the people will be shaken and the people will complain.
Now that the food base has been successfully established, even if there is no food aid from Chiyou Territory, it is not a problem for Dark Moon to cope with the sanctions, but in this way, the food base may be exposed, which will further attract the attention of the imperial capital.
Chen Rui thought for a while, then turned his gaze to Tim: "Tim, what do you think about this matter?"
"The master knows that my father secretly built a pasture and successfully cultivated high-yielding meat animals. As for the crops, the master also revealed to me about the grain base. Then Dark Moon will survive this difficulty on his own It's not difficult. The key is that our military and economic power are only in the initial stage of construction. We can't expose our strength, and we can't let the focus of the imperial capital be on the dark moon. I think we can consider using the west passage to strengthen and shadow The empire's trade is mainly in exchange for food, which can at least serve as a cover-up. The Fallen Angel Empire is the weakest among the three kingdoms, and Prince Obsidian cannot control the wishes of the Shadow Empire."
Chen Rui nodded. Tim and his thoughts coincided. Even if there is no food problem, the passage to the west should be used as soon as possible, which is especially important for the recovery of the Dark Moon economy.
"I think so too. In order to prevent the harassment Chiyou may use at that time, your defense team training must be stepped up to ensure the safety of the west." Chen Rui patted Tim on the shoulder: "If necessary, you can Use the power of Medusa and the tauren, as for the earth elementals, the king has fallen into a long sleep and is now helping to mine the underground mines, so don't disturb them unless it is absolutely necessary."
"Of order, master." Tim thought of something and asked, "Didn't the master once say that the tauren people are cursed and cannot leave the underground world?"
Chen Rui showed a confident smile: "When I return to Dark Moon City this time, when I come here again, I should be able to solve the matter of the tauren..."
Pagliu said that it is necessary to use the spiritual power of the pupil of Sauron to vibrate the lock of light and darkness. After the pupil of Sauron is used up, the pupil of Sauron will not be damaged, but the leader of the tauren did not say that after using the pupil of Sauron to lift the curse, , Will the function of the pupil of Sauron be affected? If the lock of light and darkness cannot be released by then, then the loss outweighs the gain.
Chen Rui is not a saint, so he naturally has selfishness, and he is more or less inclined to the poisonous dragon with whom he has a symbiotic contract. Besides, after unlocking Pagliu's lock of light and darkness, he can still help the tauren, but it's just a matter of waiting a little longer. It doesn't have much of an impact.
Chen Rui has successfully reunited with the Flying Dragon King, and made temporary arrangements for the bipedal dragon group. The climate in Xilang Mountain is relatively cold, which is not suitable for the survival of Wyverns. In contrast, the climate of the rainy jungle and the Youye Wetland are closer, but for now, let's talk to Xiya first.
Chen Rui asked Tim to recall the scouts and strictly guarded the secret of the Wyvern, and then took Delia and Lomon to fly towards Dark Moon City on the Wyvern.
About two days later, the three of them arrived at Lanbo Lake. Chen Rui jumped off the wyvern excitedly and shouted: "Some guy who is bored, come out!"
In a blink of an eye, the figure of the poisonous dragon appeared in front of Chen Rui's eyes. Instead of asking about the origins of Delia and Luo Meng, he asked expectantly, "Did you get it?"
"Guess what?" Chen Rui proudly took out the Eye of Sauron, flashed it in front of the poisonous dragon, and suddenly felt that his hand was lightened, and Pagliu had snatched it away.
Pagliu looked at the pupil of Sauron in his hand, his body trembled slightly, and he said: "Wait for me here!"
After speaking, the figure flickered a few times, and had already appeared by the bank of Lanbo Lake, and plunged into the lake.
Before coming to Lanbo Lake, Chen Rui only said that he was going to meet an important friend, but did not reveal Pagliu's identity. Lomon, who has always relied on his speed, was shocked when he saw the speed that Pagliu used just now—this person is far superior to him in terms of speed and strength, even the Great Demon King who has fought against him before. Neither Casillas nor Akui could compare with him. Chen Rui had such a powerful friend, and it seemed that he had a very close friendship.
After a while, the originally calm Lanbo Lake began to churn, with faint rays of light shining through. Soon, the blue and deep lake water was all dyed golden yellow, and then turned into black and white. The waves were repelled towards both sides of the bank, and the nearby ground was also trembling constantly. The three-headed demon-level wyvern behind Chen Rui looked nervous and anxious. If Chen Rui hadn't used the Analytical Eye to comfort him, he would have already flew away in shock.
Time passed by, the tremors and fluctuations finally ended, and the lake returned to calm. Just when Chen Rui was a little worried, a huge vortex appeared in the lake water, and with a "wow", a huge body rose into the sky from the water . This is a giant dragon tens of meters long, with a pair of huge bat wings on its back. East and west, the dark golden vertical pupils flashed a frightening cold light.
The giant dragon soaring into the sky let out an excited hiss, exuding an indescribable power. The three-headed bipedal dragons all showed fear, lying on the ground and not daring to move, and curled up in the backpack for a while. Having devoured a dragon's "bad deed", fearing that this fellow clan would come to avenge him, he covered his eyes and trembled in fright.
Delia and Luo Meng also showed signs of difficulty, and they all used their strength to resist. Only Chen Rui was not affected by Long Wei under the effect of the symbiosis contract.
Long Wei gradually disappeared, and the huge body quickly shrank and changed in the air, and it had already returned to Pagliu's human form when it landed.
"Haha!" Pagliu's wild laughter resounded throughout Lanbo Lake: "Damn the lock of light and darkness! Damn white night! Now Mr. Pagliu can finally leave this damned place!"
Hearing this name, Luo Meng and Delia finally understood what kind of "person" Chen Rui was referring to as an "old friend". This dragon clan should be the real owner of the treasure in Youye Wetland, that is, the super narcissist who claims to be "the most handsome and chic of the dragon clan and the most admired by female dragons".
After Pagliu laughed continuously for ten minutes, Chen Rui felt his ears buzzing, and finally protested unbearably: "Okay, Pagliu, stop laughing!"
"Hey..." Pagliu gradually recovered from his extreme excitement, took a deep breath, and showed a look of intoxication: "This free air is really wonderful. It seems that the contract with you back then , is the most correct decision! By the way, did you also succeed in my treasure?"
"It's 'my' treasure!" Chen Rui emphasized quietly: "In that treasure, there is a Lich of Demon King level, who almost killed me!"
"Impossible! I remember that I killed a guy in the fountain of vitality, and then sealed that place. That guy is dead, so it's impossible to become a Lich!"
"He used a secret technique to feign death! You were still at the Demon Emperor level at that time, I'm afraid your brain was damaged by practice! You didn't even discover this!" Chen Rui taunted unceremoniously, and suddenly reacted : "Paglio, how do you remember so clearly, could it be that your memory has improved?"
Pagliu himself also came to his senses, and slapped his head: "The lock of light and darkness must have the effect of the lock of light and darkness!"
For Pagliu, these two thousand years were nothing more than a night of sleep, and there was no reason for his memory to deteriorate significantly. Thinking about it now, it turned out to be the reason.
"No!" Chen Rui was happy for the poisonous dragon in his heart, but said in his mouth: "The risk this time is far more than expected. I have to re-adjust the distribution of treasures! Two of you!"
"What? Twenty-eight! You are more greedy than ten giant dragons combined! You might as well just come and slay the dragon!"
Delia and Lomon stared dumbfounded at the war of words between the captain and this powerful dragon. Even Delia, who is a woman, couldn't help but feel ashamed of that kind of bargaining.
In the end, the ratio was fixed at 5.1 to 4.9. Although it only increased by 0.1, it was already considered a very good result in the face of a stingy dragon who loves money like his life.
Chen Rui introduced Lomon and Delia to Pagliu, but Pagliu nodded carelessly without saying hello. Delia and the other two didn't take it seriously. The arrogance of the Dragon Clan is well known, and there is a huge disparity in power between the two sides. It is considered polite to be able to do this. Not everyone is as perverted as Chen Rui.
"Paglio, now that the lock of light and darkness has been lifted, how is your strength recovering?"
"It's only the beginning stage of the Demon Emperor now." Pagliu frowned: "With the effects of the potions you gave last time, it may return to the middle stage of the Demon Emperor in a while, but if you don't unlock the ancient rune, For the rest of my life, I can only wander in the realm of the Demon Emperor. By the way, have you found the second thing?"
Chen Rui nodded, took out the silver box from the backpack on his back, and handed it to Pagliu.
Pagliu's eyes lit up, he took the box carefully, stroked it for a while, but did not open it.
"It should be this box. After opening, there is a strange aura that can quickly devour people's vitality, and can also suppress the power of the royal family to a large extent. As long as it is there, no matter how powerful the royal family is in the future, they will not be afraid. .”
"What! Did you open it?" Pagliu was taken aback.
After listening to Chen Rui's narration, the poisonous dragon showed a serious expression: "The things in this box are very important. Even I didn't dare to touch it lightly. If you don't want to cause disaster, you must not open it again!"
It was the first time Chen Rui saw Pagliu being so serious, recalling the discomfort when he opened it for the second time and the fact that the poisonous dragon was sealed by the mysterious strongman back then, he stopped joking and nodded.
"The mystery of the box, you may be qualified to know something when your strength reaches the devil emperor level in the future." Pagliu said seriously: "I know that you can control the fountain of life, and the fountain of vitality must also be controlled. Use your secret skills to put it away, you need to find a place to soak the box in the fountain of vitality or the fountain of life. Promise me, you can’t touch it again until you find Laura!”
You have to reach the Devil Emperor level to know the secret of the box? Chen Rui originally wanted to try the silver box with in-depth analysis, but he was secretly startled when he heard this, and gave up the idea.
As for the place to bury the silver box, you can choose the fountain of life of the tauren or earth elementals in the underground world of Xilang Mountain, and you can also entrust them to help take care of it.
"knew."
"Just understand, let's not talk about this," Du Long stretched his muscles and bones: "Let's go, I don't want to stay in this ghostly place with cocoons anymore."
