Chen Rui had already faintly guessed what Manu called "choice", and snorted coldly: "As a master of the three lines, I also have my own pride and persistence. If I abandon these, then a flawed mind will never be able to achieve That supreme peak! The peak of the master is the greatest goal of my life, if you insist on making me a humble servant, I would rather die!"
Manu smiled even more, but the pressure became stronger and stronger, and the space seemed to be frozen. Chen Rui couldn't move, he had already released the power of the first stage of the demon king, resisting with "full strength", Manu would definitely find out about the assassination in the imperial capital, and Horford confirmed that the power of the demon king level must be revealed .
Chen Rui didn't dare to use his real full strength, but tried his best to use the technique of breathing to change the combat power taught by Pagliu. He was betting that Manu would not kill this three-line master easily.
Sure enough, Manu's aura stopped again. The moment he opened his eyes just now, the value of the Analytical Eye seemed to jump to "unable to judge", but it returned to its original state in an instant. It seems that this guy is really a devil-level powerhouse .
Manu praised: "The master's persistence is really admirable, I just tested it. But has the master ever thought that even if you have no flaws in those experiences, it is impossible to remain unknown for a long time with the master-level ability proficient in the three departments alone?" I was a wandering apprentice and didn't rise suddenly until now. Master, don't be angry. It is because I sincerely want to invite the master to join and become the most important core force, so I made some words clear. Don't the master want to explain it? ?"
"Everyone has their own secrets." Chen Rui shook his head, "I didn't ask Sir about the specific situation of this force. The reason why I was willing to take the initiative to follow Miss Fatilu to the blood thorn flower territory was for the artifact! My previous The bottleneck has been stuck on the way to the top master. In the ancient magic tower of the imperial capital, I gained important insights and unlocked a four-star and a quasi-four-star advanced magic circle in one fell swoop. The further key! If you can learn more about the mysteries of the magic circle in the artifact, you may be able to become a top master who is proficient in the three departments. Once you reach this level, even Nate will look up to my realm, and if you go further... "
The news that Chen Rui deciphered the two magic circles in the ancient magic tower one after another has already spread throughout the Shadow Empire. Manu naturally knows that these words also explain why "Arthur" took the initiative to follow Fatilu, as A master craftsman will naturally not give up any chance to reach the top.
Manu nodded slightly: Just like the rumors, Master "Arthur" is indeed the most promising candidate to become a Grandmaster! If one can really join forces and become a grandmaster, then the value produced is absolutely incalculable. The more this is the case, the more one must control this person and not be used by others!
"Master, you must have learned from Fatilu that we are the secret of the Leviathan family. Have you ever heard that I am jealous of the blood of the royal family, gifted with spiritual shackles?"
Chen Rui frowned secretly. His identity and explanation should have no problem at all. Unexpectedly, Manu still wanted to control him. He nodded and said: "The blood talent of the Seven Royal Family is famous, how could it be possible that I haven't heard of it? Sir, do you want to be right?" I use the shackles of the mind?"
"The royal family also has mutated blood. My psychic shackles have the ability to mutate. I call it 'spiritual channel'. This kind of psychic channel is very special, and the caster also has to pay a considerable price."
Manu restrained his smile, and said with a serious expression: "After accepting the spiritual channel, part of my power will stay in the spiritual channel, which can enhance your strength. Although it is only part, but for your current level, the quality of all aspects You will get a substantial increase. Even if you are fatally hit, I will be severely injured accordingly. The only price is... I believe you also know that it is the control of the shackles of the soul. This kind of control is not slavery, but just in case. 1. Since the soul channel has the characteristics of sharing power and damage, I never use it lightly, and now it also represents a kind of sincerity."
In fact, Manu still hides a little bit. It is true that Chen Rui can strengthen himself through the power retained through the spiritual channel, but the damage value is tricky. Although Chen Rui is severely injured or dies, he will suffer serious damage, but the same, he The damage I have suffered will also be doubled and "shared" with Chen Rui.
"I will never force the master," Manu said, a colorful ball of light appeared in the palm of his hand, "If the master willingly accepts the spiritual channel, then you will join us as the real core, artifacts, materials, magic circles, experiments rooms, women, fine wine... We will do our best to provide you with all the resources and needs! If the master is not willing, then he can only be an ordinary master maker under our supervision and control at all times, and will also provide certain resources. Conditions, but freedom and other aspects will be greatly restricted. The master should be able to guess that there is an essential difference between the two. When things have come to this point, we will definitely not let you go, it depends on how you choose."
"No matter how you change the name or attribute, the shackles of the mind are the shackles of the mind after all. I accept it, and it is the price of freedom." Chen Rui frowned, "I can't think of any difference in essence between the two."
"In this world, there is no gain in vain." Manu continued to bewitch with a smile: "If you are not willing to pay even this price, then I would say rudely, your persistence may not be able to persist to the peak of the master level. "
Chen Rui had already had countless thoughts in his mind: it really is not easy to be an undercover agent, this is a huge test. If you want to really enter the core of the power, you must win the trust of this Manu!
If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you get tiger cubs. Accepting the shackles of the mind is the best way. There are two ways to break the shackles of the mind. 1. The caster actively releases or dies; 2. The subject dies.
In addition, there is another method, which is to use the artifact of the Leviathan family, which can offset the effect of the shackles of the mind. Half of this artifact is in Delia's hands, and the other half...isn't it the "excuse" for this visit? "One of them
In an instant, Chen Rui had made a major decision, and slowly walked towards Manu, and stretched out his hand to the ball of light. Manu was overjoyed, and his expression remained calm on the surface.
The moment Chen Rui was about to touch the ball of light, his body suddenly paused, as if he had changed his mind. Manu frowned slightly. With his strength, he was naturally not afraid of the opponent's sudden attack or sneak attack, but he felt like a cooked duck suddenly flew away.
In fact, this spiritual channel could have been forcibly used on Chen Rui, but Chen Rui's weapon making skills are actually not as good as the top masters who specialize in a series of proficiency. His greatest value is the potential of a future master. If there is really some kind of defect in the mind, then the gain outweighs the loss.
At this moment, Manu saw Chen Rui's eyes shining brightly, and suddenly asked, "When will the artifact arrive? I want a definite answer!"
Manu's narrowed eyes lit up, and he gave the answer with certainty: "Within ten days."
"Okay!" Chen Rui's eyes suddenly became frenzied, a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, the movement of the pause suddenly accelerated, and he grasped the light ball without hesitation, and the light ball was quickly absorbed into the body.
Manu has been paying attention to Chen Rui's eyes and expression, and he didn't even hide the madness and surprise from him. Seeing that the other party really took the initiative to accept the spiritual shackles, he no longer had any doubts. , and couldn't help laughing out loud—the master of the three lines who is most likely to become a master is finally firmly in his hands!
However, Manu couldn't think of what was the real reason for Chen Rui's sudden pause and surprise earlier.
The moment Chen Rui was about to touch the ball of light, a system prompt suddenly occurred to his mind: "An unknown spiritual link was found, marked - B-level, can be canceled, can be truncated. Accept or reject?"
Cancellation means elimination, as for truncation... It means to retain the attributes obtained from the connection and forcibly break the link, but the cost is higher than "cancellation".
This means that the function of "sharing part of the power" that Manu used to confuse him will be a disaster.
The power of a devil emperor! Even if it's only part of it, it's quite astonishing for the level of the Great Demon King. If someone comes to your door for free, should you still refuse
I was already ready to sacrifice, but I never thought there would be such an unexpected surprise, super system, I really love you! At this moment, Chen Rui and Manu laughed with their own ghosts.
"Master is really courageous! Now you are truly your own." Chen Rui's performance made Manu completely relieved. You must know that the shackles of the mind are one of the most powerful mind-controlling skills in the devil world. Can torture or kill those bound by chains anywhere, across space.
What's more, the master accepted it voluntarily, so at least for a period of time, there is no need to worry about the possibility of betrayal.
The moment the power of the spiritual channel entered the body, Chen Rui felt that there was an incomparably abundant power in his body, and his physical and mental strength had all increased.
"The master should be able to feel the benefits of the spiritual channel now," Manu said with a smile: "My power is the devil emperor level, the master has already obtained one-thousandth of my power, and what I feel now should be just a little bit more. For a small part, if you can calmly digest and comprehend it, at least the master can reach the level of the Great Demon King."
It turned out to be only one in a thousand, stingy guy! Although Chen Rui murmured in his heart, he also understood that if the power was too strong, he would be blown up instead. This state was just right for his level, and it could make the power of the law realm even stronger.
Come to send pillows when you sleep, this trick is called "timely rain", it is worthy of the Leviathan royal family who is proficient in water.
"Strength is secondary to me, but mental power is of great benefit in the study of magic circles." Chen Rui is purely the type who is cheap and good-looking, and said dissatisfiedly: "Now I am concerned about when I can leave this place." Damn place! Both mother and daughter, Sapulina and Fatilu, are top-notch, but it’s only useless if they can’t eat them! The most important thing is, I haven’t really settled down to comprehend the making of weapons for a long time! My lord Since you are a Demon Emperor-level powerhouse, you should know the truth that if you do not advance in strength cultivation, you will retreat, and the art of making weapons is the same!"
"That's right, the master is indeed a master," Manu nodded and said, "Since the master has accepted the spiritual channel, he is one of his own. Today, I will take you to a good place that can only be made by one's own people. , beauties, all wishes and needs of the master can be fulfilled there."
Chen Rui's heart skipped a beat. After acting for so long, the drama is finally coming.
"This place is called Crystal Valley."
