Three days passed.
Still no reply.
Chen Rui felt a little strange in his heart. Although he didn't know if there was any problem with Isabella, he would not completely pin his hopes on that woman.
At times like this, the only person you can rely on is yourself.
However, in the past few days, he had an unexpected harvest, which was actually obtained from the shackles in his hands and the weakened magic circle of the cage.
Chen Rui tried it. Both the confinement shackles and the cage have a special effect of restraining the power of the field. As a master of the magic circle and a top-level tool maker, the confinement magic circle aroused Chen Rui's strong interest.
What he was interested in was not only the magic circle itself, but also a sudden idea—through this kind of magic circle, the mysteries of the domain could be deduced in reverse.
Even the makers of these utensils, those late masters or grand masters, never imagined that one day someone would have such an unbelievable idea; nor did they expect that this is a person with the perverted skill of "deep analysis" A super craftsman and magic circle master, and that kind of idea has really been put into practice.
Mountain darkly, vista.
After looking at the problem from a different angle, Chen Rui unexpectedly touched some areas that he hadn't thought of before. Of course, the knowledge of magic circles and artifacts played a key role. With the in-depth analysis, even if he couldn't completely crack Those complicated and profound magic circles, the deduction of the domain also began to become traceable.
These imprisoned magic circles made it impossible for Chen Rui to experiment with new field perceptions, but he had a super system, he could use any skill in the training ground, and there was no time and number of times in reality.
After his body adapted to the "baptism" of thunder and lightning and entered the training ground state, combined with the positive and negative comprehension and his own understanding, Chen Rui's originally stagnant legal realm experience value finally began to rise continuously.
These days, some people also bring food, and they put it outside the cage. This cage is very strange. There is a gravity field inside, and there is no feeling outside. Chen Rui is not afraid of poisoning, but he really can't see these hard-to-eat junk food. In fact, there is plenty of food in the storage warehouse, but in order to prevent surveillance, he usually does not eat until late at night.
On the surface, "Charles" hadn't eaten for three days, and he didn't know if it was a hunger strike or he was so tortured that he didn't even have the strength to reach out of the cage to get food.
On the fourth day, a person finally appeared in front of the cage of Prison No. 13.
However, he was an unexpected person.
Minister of War, Rommel.
"Lord Charles."
Chen Rui slowly opened his closed eyes and glanced at Rommel.
"Your Excellency has been wronged." Rommel had a faint smile on his face.
"Lord Rommel, did you come to see my joke?" Chen Rui said with some difficulty, as if trying to maintain a calm tone under the pressure of gravity, but couldn't hide his weakness.
Rommel saw it and shook his head: "I am here to help Sir Charles, and I have a reason that you cannot refuse."
"Can't refuse?"
"Don't Lord Charles want to leave this damned place?"
Chen Rui's tone was tinged with contempt: "People from the three elder families plus the royal family, especially the heir to the Lincoln family, all died at my hands. Do you think I can leave if I want to? Yes Now, let’s leave when the execution is over.”
"Well, let's look at it from another angle. It's true that Lordan is the heir of the Lincoln family, but he was born of a wife who married off the royal family, and he is also the blood of the fallen angel royal family. The identity of this heir, patriarch Sartre To a large extent, it was due to the pressure of the royal family. No one wanted the family foundation he had worked so hard to eventually merge into the royal family, especially the elder family. Liestin was just a son-in-law. Outsiders, besides being a dead person, how can they compare to the value that a living person can provide? As for the loss of Pierce and the collateral royal family... I can make a promise on behalf of the power of the elder family, as long as you provide enough benefits, everything before It’s all okay to forget about it.”
Rommel paused, glanced at Chen Rui's expressionless face, and said: "As far as I know, His Excellency Charles should be a human noble just like Lord Nero... There is no need to hide this information, I have confirmed it." What I'm interested in now is, what kind of benefits can your Excellency bring to me? Maybe it can match the title of high-level palace advisor awarded by the Obsidian Palace?"
"I have to praise you, your sense of smell is very sensitive, and you can smell the smell of profit." Chen Rui praised, and he was not too surprised. This time, Samuel's identity will definitely be investigated. It is very likely that the identity of Chiyou cannot be concealed from insiders, and some things about Chiyou will also be known, such as the cooperation with Carnita and Zhuoqie.
"It's a pity that I don't have the benefits you can get."
Rommel looked slightly strange: "Even the elder family I represent doesn't have this qualification?"
Chen Rui did not answer, but asked with great interest: "I remember General Duolun once ordered that no one should come here to see me without the order of the regent. Lord Rommel is here today, what is it?" On behalf of all the elder families, or His Royal Highness the Regent?"
This was already a disguised rejection, and Rommel frowned slightly: "Your Excellency Charles, you seem to be very calm. Do you still have some expectations for a certain woman... or can you call it a fantasy?"
Chen Rui didn't answer, just waiting for his next words.
"Your Excellency is a very persistent person, which is admirable. But I have to sigh, you have always been used by that woman." Rommel sneered: "You know, Isabella and I are political enemies. Instigated you to kill Jadr, the coachman I installed. So, in order to get rid of you, the enemy who stood on her side, I instructed Lordan and the others to launch an ambush against you, but unfortunately they all died at your hands. In your hands It seems that things should be like this. If I say that I am not the instigator behind the ambush, do you believe it or not?"
Chen Rui remained silent.
"According to my latest information, before you were taken away by General Duolun, you should have given her something and told her to hand it over to His Royal Highness the Regent, but what you don't know is that she hasn't gone to see the Regent until now. "
Chen Rui's eyes flashed, and finally there was a trace of surprise: Rommel's intention for coming today is obvious, he just took a fancy to the huge interests he may have at hand. From this point of view, the elder family or Rommel directly sent Lordan to ambush him The possibility of this is very small, and of course it is not ruled out that the existence of a certain interest was not ruled out until after this incident happened.
Isabella is behind the scenes, although it sounds illogical, but in any case, it is worthy of being an object of suspicion.
If true, what was her motivation? "Charles" died, and Obsidian's interests were also lost. Is it to provoke the relationship between the elder family and Obsidian? Isn't Isabella a close friend of Obsidian? Or is this decision related to that secret force
On the surface, that woman was very close to him and even somewhat ambiguous, but behind her back was such a killer, it seemed that she really lived up to the name of Datura flower.
Chen Rui thought of the scene when Luo Dan was induced to blew himself up, and also thought of the "evil Gu" he had been in, and he realized something in his heart.
Seeing Chen Rui's pensive look, Rommel said with a stick: "In your current situation, I don't need to deceive you. As long as you agree to cooperate, our elder family, as the victims of this incident, can naturally Exempt you from accountability, and when the truth comes out, that ruthless woman will be punished as she should, and then you can do whatever you want with her."
This proposal made Chen Rui's brain spin for a while. Isabella is a general under Hei Yao's command, and Hei Yao has always been restricted by the elder family. If he cooperates with the elder family, it may cause some conflicts between the two parties. In the long run , can shake the foundation of Obsidian. However, his identity and business in the human world are all fabricated. The so-called huge benefits are only being posted upside down at present, and it is not yet time to harvest. Moreover, in his plan, Obsidian is a central point of activation and cannot be changed, so , now he can't cooperate with the elder family, and he has to use this to prove his firmness to Black Yao.
In fact, as long as Hei Yao is on his side in this matter, the conflict between the two parties can already be deepened. This is also the reason why he didn't destroy the corpses after killing the four people. The only way to achieve this goal is to let Black Yao see the greater interests that are enough for him to openly confront the elder family.
"Unfortunately, I can't believe you," Chen Rui figured this out, with a firm look in his eyes, raised his hand a little awkwardly, and pointed to the cage: "Even if what you said makes sense, even... In this situation."
Rommel's pupils contracted slightly: "Your Excellency Charles, this joke... doesn't seem very funny. Although I have always been patient with you, but... the old guys behind me, at this moment, just lack patience. You must Think carefully, this is a matter of life and death!"
Chen Rui replied without hesitation: "I think I have thought it through very clearly, and I will not change it. Your Excellency, Minister of Military Affairs, it is too difficult to talk to you in such an environment of gravity and poison. Please forgive me for being rude." .”
Seeing that Chen Rui closed his eyes in front of him and stopped talking, Rommel raised his eyebrows: "This may be the worst decision you have made in your life."
Hearing Rommel's footsteps going away, Chen Rui slowly opened his eyes. Rommel's arrival made him even more suspicious of Isabella. Of course, he never really trusted this mandala flower, but Now we can no longer passively wait in the secret prison like this, we must find an opportunity to take the initiative to attack.
Due to the deduction of the confinement magic circle, not long before Rommel's arrival, his understanding of the domain happened to be at a very critical moment, and he might pierce the layer of paper at any time, or grasp the precious insight that was vaguely there. First enter the training ground and practice hard.
I don't know how long has passed in the training ground, when Chen Rui was awakened by a strange warning sign and opened his eyes, there were already three more people in front of him.
He only knew the leader, the patriarch of the Lincoln family, Sartre. Lincoln.
The patriarch of one of the elder families has reached A- in overall strength, the first stage of the Demon Emperor, and there is a cold light shining in his normally smiling eyes.
The other two people, a man and a woman, both had the strength of the first stage of the Great Demon King level, and their faces showed hatred.
Judging from the situation of the three of them, it is certain that Rommel did not come to negotiate with him. It should be that after the negotiation broke down, revenge and complaints began.
It should be the best time for Chen Rui to launch the attack, but the two big demon kings are fine. Sartre is the demon king. Does he have a chance
"Charles, I don't know what kind of enmity there is between you and my son Lordan, but you used such a cruel method to make him die." Sutter said calmly, "One of these two is Lies Theresa, Ding's widow, and Tonte, Pierce's nephew, you won't die too easily today."
Strange images and sounds suddenly appeared in front of the cage.
"It should be said that the reason for your failure is that someone provided wrong information..."
"This time you were just used as a knife, and I don't want to have too much grievances with the Lincoln family. I can spare your life, but you must first tell who provided my whereabouts and information, and who ordered you to come Kill me?"
Then came the silver light, bursting.
It was the scene that Chen Rui "recorded" with the photo stone that day.
Sartre showed a strange expression, and frowned.
"Your son was not killed by me, but was used by others, and then he used a special method to trigger a certain power in him to explode and die." Chen Rui shook his head, and his eyes fell on Te Lisha and Tong Te On the body, "As for the three people of Restin, I have no enmity with them. Since they came to kill me, they should have the consciousness of being killed. This is the most basic rule."
Sartre had already recovered from his thoughts and surprise, and said coldly: "I don't know how you created those illusions just now, but... even if you didn't kill Lordan, he died because of you! No matter what you do today You can't escape the fate of being torn to pieces with sweet words."
Could it be that if he wants to kill me, I have to do it obediently? Chen Rui wanted to retort, but it is obviously meaningless to argue with Sartre, let alone those two enemies whose eyes are enough to kill people.
The senator's family is so powerful that they don't care about the so-called right or wrong, even if their side is unreasonable. In addition, Rommel's previous interest negotiations broke down. Now he has become the source of all crimes, and it is impossible to let it go today. .
Fists are the real truth.
Many times I am very sad about this "truth", but I have to admit this truth.
"Do you think you can kill me today?" Chen Rui asked indifferently. In fact, when Sartre appeared, he was already secretly brewing and adjusting his strength.
"You can defeat the combination of Listin, Pierce and others. Your strength should be infinitely close to or even reach the realm of the Demon Emperor. I haven't fought for many years. If it is normal, I may not be sure of victory, but..." A faint flame visible to the naked eye steamed up on Sartre, and he said confidently: "This is prison No. 13 of the secret prison. Against an enemy who has stayed here for seven days and has not eaten, my chances are 100%! I want to ask The most important thing is, after the magic circle in the prison is withdrawn, do you still have the strength to stand up and die?"
