Chen Rui knew nothing about the power transfer battle of the Leviathan royal family. At this moment, he was riding a small black horse safely from Mordor town. Not long afterward, with his identity as a pharmacist and the appearance and aura of a nightmare beast little black horse, he passed the frontier checkpoint very smoothly and officially stepped into the realm of the dark moon.
After so many changes and adventures in the Shadow Empire, Chen Rui's yearning for Athena became more and more intense, not only for Athena, but also for Ji Ya, Shia, Alice, Pagliu, etc. people.
The Nightmare Beast traveled very fast, and three days later, the figure of the little black horse had already appeared at the gate of the East City of Dark Moon City. Even in the evening when the light is not very bright, Chen Rui can still see that the mental outlook and temperament of the city gate guards have changed a lot compared to before. It seems that after this period of training, the overall quality has been greatly improved. small boost.
The shops along the way are busy preparing for the opening of the night market. Since the opening of the night market organized by the Cloak Society, it has received unanimous praise from all over Darkmoon City, and it has become the favorite place for the demons who like to come and go at night, effectively promoting the night market. economy and consumption.
Today, the night market is divided into two parts, the southwest and the southeast. The southwest is dominated by small businesses and hawkers, while the southeast is a joint sales point of large and medium-sized businesses. Each has its own characteristics. The hot pot restaurant is still very popular, and now it has opened three branches, becoming the "special snack" of Darkmoon City.
Merchants have also ushered in the spring that can only be found in the surface world. They only need to pay taxes and the protection fee of the Cloak Society, and they can operate freely. They don't need to consider all kinds of "filial piety" and blackmail in the past, and their enthusiasm has also greatly increased.
Chen Rui also saw a new shop selling shadow empire specialties. Celine has become the heir of the Custer family and has gradually taken over the power entrusted by the patriarch Crozier. Under her operation, the actions of the Custer family have already It started slowly, and the first step of Dark Moon's business with the Shadow Empire has been successfully taken.
With the card of the Custer family, Dark Moon's purchase of food from the Shadow Empire will go very smoothly. At least on the bright side, Shea has been able to freely cope with the food sanctions imposed by the imperial capital some time ago.
However, the food sanctions are only a means of the imperial capital. If it is only a passive defense, then one day, the dark moon will be torn apart and completely collapsed under this kind of knife cutting, so it must try to counterattack.
After the incident in Demon Bell Town, the implementation of the most important plan is getting closer and closer. If the overall plan is successful, Shea is likely to become the Queen of the Empire step by step, and will rule the Fallen Angel Empire and the other two empires. .
The problem is, about two hundred years later, when there is another large-scale war between the Demon Realm and the Human Realm, the Fallen Angel Empire will definitely not be able to avoid participating. It doesn't seem to be a good result. Moreover, his lifespan is at least tens of thousands of years, and similar troubles may follow one after another...
Chen Rui thought about it, but felt a headache, but the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge, anyway, there are still two hundred years left, so let's think about it at that time.
He led the little black horse all the way to the sheriff's house.
Since the human sheriff has been in a coma for a long time, there have been fewer and fewer visitors. After the sheriff's lover Athena was appointed as the acting sheriff, suddenly many people came to visit the "illness" of human beings, but none of them came. Rejected by Athena, this is the warmth of human feelings, the inconsistency of the world, and it is the same in any plane.
The magistrate's residence covers a large area, but its location is relatively remote. Everyone in Darkmoon City knows that this gloomy residence does not have any guards or servants. There have been people with ulterior motives who tried to sneak into the house, but nothing happened. No more news. It is said that this place is full of powerful magic circles set up by Lord Gauss under the command of the eldest princess. No one dares to enter this place without the permission of Lord Athena. In fact, compared with the real people who set up these magic circles, Mr. Gauss can only be classified as an ant unfortunately.
Chen Rui entered the house with ease, turned two corners and came to the yard with ease. If it were someone else, he would probably enjoy the "intimate contact" of the dragon language inscription or the guardian vine within three steps.
Walking into the yard, I saw Lomon talking to Delia with a smile on his face, and beside him were Diu Diu who was flattering and Pagliu who was gloating, but he didn't see Athena.
Seeing a "big devil" walking in with a horse instead of Athena as imagined, everyone showed surprise. Pagliu reacted the fastest, grinning, raised his glass, and reflexively poured a full glass of wine like an amoeba.
"Look who is back?" Luo Meng also reacted, and before Chen Rui recovered his face, he had already walked over with a thief, "A master of three lines of tool making, a genius who shocked the devil world for thousands of years? Damn it, You can't be the illegitimate child thrown into this world by the demon god, right?"
Pagliu feels the same about this point, but the first person he met with Chen Rui has been "hardened" for a long time, and his nerves have become much stronger. Luo Meng's fuss is just like his own back then, and now he just laughs deeply He smiled, he looked like a dragon.
"Why did I hear a sour smell? When did 'jealousy' become synonymous with the lazy royal family?" Chen Rui had already recovered his original face, "I said Delia, are you sure this guy is not your jealous royal family sneaking into Bailey The internal response of the Er royal family?"
"Captain, I'm sure." Although the Battle of Youye Wetlands has passed for a long time, Delia is still used to addressing Captain Chen Rui. guy..."
Before Delia could finish speaking, Luo Meng said with a sad face: "At any rate, I am also the son-in-law who is jealous of the royal family..."
"Hmph, shameless guy!" Delia blushed slightly, but said to Pagliu, "Dudiu!"
The amoeba just found out that it was the master who came back, so he couldn't get in the conversation. As soon as he saw Delia's greeting, he immediately changed into Lomon's appearance in a showy manner.
"It's too beastly!" Diu Diu, who transformed into Luo Meng, took a big gulp of wine and sighed, "Demon God! Open your almighty left eye that can charm all women, and show your respect to your poor believer... Even a beautiful woman will be caught by Delia! No, I can't be hanged on a tree! I want the whole forest!"
"You should go find the whole forest, I don't welcome you in this tree," Delia looked at the stunned Lomon with a half-smile, and gave him the back of the head: "Don't say anything, it's over, because you With 'rich' experience, you should know that women are very vindictive."
"It really is a beast!" Chen Rui showed a look of sudden realization, "Delia, don't worry, as the captain, I fully support your choice!"
"You're too vicious!" Luo Meng wanted to step forward and make fierce body language to express his grief and indignation. This action caused the little black horse behind Chen Rui to misunderstand and showed vigilance.
Sensing the strength of this enemy, the little black horse turned into the shape of a nightmare beast without hesitation, the unicorn light flashed on its head, and the mutated gifted lightning power burst out. This transformation attracted everyone's attention. With a strange cry, Lomon activated the swift talent Shining Spirit of the Belial royal family, and unexpectedly dodged the lightning. It's not that Lomon's speed has reached or exceeded the speed of light. This dodge is a reaction similar to thoughts. With the talent of the Shining, he avoided this powerful lightning in an instant. Even without analytical eyes, one can tell that Luo Meng's strength has greatly improved compared to before, and should have reached the realm of the Great Demon King.
The little black horse didn't continue to attack, because Chen Rui had already told it in his mind that everyone here is a friend. Of course, the most important thing is that the little black horse is not the opponent of Luo Meng at present. If it reaches the level of the big devil, Chen Rui will not Mind if some forest fanatic takes a lightning bath first.
"Nightmare beast!" Delia was taken aback. Putting aside the strength of the nightmare beast, it has an extremely strong temperament. It is one of the most difficult monsters to subdue. Whether this nightmare beast can emit lightning and transform itself is definitely a must. A rare mutated bloodline.
Unexpectedly, it was as docile as a magic dog in front of Chen Rui, but no, Chen Rui threw a fruit, and the nightmare beast, which had recovered into a dark horse, jumped high and caught it in mid-air. Is it a horse... or a dog
Luo Meng pointed at Chen Rui, then pointed at the still hostile Nightmare Beast. He was speechless for a moment, jealous, or Chi Guoguo's jealousy—it's too unfair, the captain must know magic, Master Luo Meng All the good luck was taken away by him!
Chen Rui was too lazy to argue with this guy, and he didn't look at Diu Diu with a charming smile on his face. His attention fell behind him, and another person walked into the yard. With familiar footsteps, he knew who she was almost without turning his head.
Like she knew him. Her appearance is not the most beautiful in the devil world, but in his heart, she is the most beautiful.
When the slightly tired beautiful red eyes saw Chen Rui's back, they instantly flashed a look of surprise, which happened to meet his turning eyes.
She quickened her pace, not caring about the eyes of her friends in the yard, nor the vigilant eyes of the little black horse behind him, she came to him, hugged him, and at the same time he hugged her tightly.
"Athena, I'm back."
"kindness."
Very plain words, but full of happiness.
Even the little black horse was infected by this emotion, and silently put away its hostility.
Feeling each other's heartbeat and body temperature, the two silently exchanged thoughts after parting, almost forgetting the time until...
"Delia, I'm back."
"roll!"
"..."
