The day's business was over, and Chen Rui's stall was the most enviable. He struck up a conversation for a few hours, and finally got hooked up by that mysterious lady. That guy actually pretended to be a customer leisurely, walked around the store, and bought a lot of things.
Although a lot of money was spent, everyone knows that this "Simon" is obviously the only booth in the entire store that satisfied the distinguished lady, and it is not just a general satisfaction. It seems that the reward of ten times is guaranteed, no matter what So today this guy is making a lot of money.
In fact, money is really just a floating cloud to Chen Rui. The real gain this time is that he got valuable clues about the land of fertile origin, and bought many rare things including artifact materials. This trip is worthwhile.
Sure enough, at noon, under the envious eyes of everyone, Chen Rui followed a guard and left the store.
The guard led Chen Rui all the way out of the bustling trade fair and came to the western suburbs. Chen Rui felt a little strange, why should the reward be honored in such a place
When I came to a remote hut, there was a thin and strange man with a cold face, who waved to the guards, and the guards bowed and retreated.
"My name is Mentila, and I am the captain of the Yin Department of the Imperial Capital. The Yin Department is the secret army responsible for the safety of the Imperial Capital. From now on, let me ask you a question, and you answer me. If there is any fraud or omission, don't let me go today." I want to get out of here alive."
Hidden part? Chen Rui thought, it should be an intelligence agency with the same nature as the Dark Demon, it seems that the ten times the reward this time is really a "surprise".
"My lord, didn't you say that there are ten times the reward? I..."
"I didn't say that, I asked a question, can you answer it?" Meng Tila suddenly erupted with a devil-level aura, and pressed Chen Rui, a small "middle-level demon", to stand unsteadily, and he was still very weak. "Cooperate" almost fell to the ground.
Mentila looked at the effect of his aura with satisfaction, and asked, "What exactly did you sell to that lady?"
Chen Rui replied timidly: "Those are some gadgets I made myself, using the magic circle to make some entertainment effects, and they have no special effect."
"I know your worthless things, and now I'm asking what is that lady who has been so fond of?"
"That crystal plate is called a square crystal plate. It is a magic prop left by an elder that I have collected for many years. Unfortunately, there is only that one."
"Square crystal plate? Are you sure there is only one? Can you make the same thing?" Mentila narrowed his eyes, "If you can make similar props, in addition to the ten times the reward, you will also get unimaginable wealth."
Chen Rui's eyes seemed to shine a little, but he shook his head regretfully: "That is the only precious prop, and I have tried it many times, but I can't imitate it, otherwise I will take it out and sell it to that Miss Tiffany."
"Very well, then it's useless to keep you." Mentila's eyes flashed murderous intent, what this "Simon" explained was basically consistent with the information obtained in the store, there should be no problem.
Chen Rui had already sensed that this guy had murderous intentions. From the very beginning when he revealed that he was the captain of the hidden department, he probably didn't intend to let him, the "Simon", leave alive. He looked startled, and stepped back step by step: "Why, didn't you say that if you can satisfy that lady, you will get ten times the bonus?"
"Originally, you should have received a bonus. It's your fault that you don't know how to live or die. You dare to get so close to the young lady and touch the taboo of a certain important person. Just knowing her name is enough to die a hundred times! But you I only have one life, and I will torture you a hundred times until you die." Mentila was full of murderous aura, and said sinisterly: "Not only you, but everyone related to you will be completely obliterated! "
As soon as the words fell, he felt his head tighten, and an extra hand had come, clasping his skull like an iron claw. Meng Tila was shocked. He instinctively felt that just a little force from this terrifying hand could completely shatter his head. With the strength of a demon king, there was no room for resistance!
"Who is that so-called big shot? I'll give you ten seconds to answer. If you want to get a headshot, you can try to keep silent." The other party's cold voice sounded, and Meng Tila couldn't think of it. He turned himself into a strong man with terrifying power. Just the aura of concealment is enough to make him prostrate on the ground. This person... is the Great Demon King? No! Not just the Great Demon King!
"Who are you!" Mentila's heart tightened suddenly.
"There are still five seconds." Chen Rui slightly increased the force, and Meng Tila felt that the blood in the brain seemed to speed up dozens of times, almost bursting, but when he gritted his teeth, it seemed that he had chewed something. It quickly turned blue, and his eyes began to collapse.
Chen Rui knew something was wrong, and when he let go, Mengtila's body softened, and he fell to the ground, his livid face turned ashen, and green blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth, apparently he committed suicide by taking poison.
It seemed that this Mentila was really a member of Xue Fiend's secret intelligence department. He was vicious and decisive. In order not to leak the information, he committed suicide without hesitation. It's just that what Mentila said about "killing all relevant people" shocked Chen Rui. He entered the special store through Tess' relationship. From this point of view, Tess is in danger!
Thinking of this, the figure in the hut disappeared instantly.
Chen Rui changed his face, and rushed all the way to the Tess Hotel in the southern suburbs. Before he reached the southern suburbs, he saw the fire and thick smoke surging in that direction, and an ominous omen suddenly surged in his heart, so he hurried up speed.
However, it was still a step too late. When Chen Rui arrived at the Tess Hotel, the fire was coming to an end and was extinguished by the nearby residents. The entire hotel was almost burned to the ground. Several bodies that had not been completely charred were cleaned up and killed. There was a body of a succubus, Tess could be vaguely seen.
Although Tess is not strong, but as the person in charge of the dark demon stationed in Xuesha, her intelligence and adaptability are top choices. Chen Rui can be sure that she was killed first and then set fire to destroy the traces. Tess, even several guests in the hotel suffered. I don't know if it's the remoteness of the southern suburbs, or the energy of the guards responsible for the security of the imperial capital was devoted to the Trade Fair, and it was too late until the fire was about to be completely extinguished.
The cause of this incident should not be the exposure of the power of Tess and the Dark Demon, but "a certain big man" because Simon, who Chen Rui pretended to be, had "secret" contact with that Tiffany girl, out of some kind of jealousy or The other killers who were thinking about it did not know who they were, but they were so vicious. Not only Chen Rui himself, but also Tess, who seemed to be only a "distant relative" on the surface, and even innocent passengers !
There was a strong anger and killing intent in Chen Rui's heart. It was unexpected that Tess would be involved in such a way. Although Tess sacrificed, the Blood Demon Emperor still had members of the Dark Demon. This matter must be thoroughly investigated, regardless of who is behind the scenes. Even if it is a big shot, the other party must pay the price!
With a thought, Chen Rui returned to the western suburbs as quickly as possible. At this time, the body of Mentila in the hut was still lying on the ground. Judging from the traces around, no one had been there. Obviously, Mengtila killed "Simon" "It is a matter of certainty, and there is no need to arrange more manpower.
Chen Rui put away Mengtila's body, then used camouflage to look like him, and walked out swaggeringly.
The businessman "Simon" must disappear, so as not to arouse too much suspicion. As for the hidden department where Mentila is located, it should be the most secret intelligence agency in the capital of Blood Fiend. I'm afraid that the difficulty is not small, so "Meng Tila" must "disappear" for a period of time after solving the damn businessman Simon, and the corpse may come in handy when necessary.
The most urgent task is to gather the rest of the Dark Demon members first, to maintain the continuity of the Blood Fiend Empire's intelligence before Isabella formally appoints a new person in charge, and to focus on investigating information about Tiffany and a certain important figure.
The next day, a man wearing the costume of a tool maker apprentice appeared in front of the tool maker alliance building of the Blood Fiend Empire.
The scale of the Artisan Alliance of the Blood Fiend Empire is far greater than that of the Shadow Empire and the Fallen Angel Empire. The president, Nate, is known as the No. 1 Artifact Master in the Demon World. A special store sells equipment and materials to the outside world. The business is very hot, and most of the manpower is invested there.
"Fill out this form and pay the assessment fee of 100 black crystal coins, then you can go to the assessment center on the fourth floor to participate in the assessment and certification."
"One hundred black crystal coins?" Chen Rui was taken aback. He only used fifty black crystal coins for the assessment of the Shadow Empire's Artisan Alliance. twice as much.
"You are from another place, right?" The registration officer raised his head, looked him up a few times, and said in a calm voice, "Our Blood Fiend Artifact Maker Alliance has the number one master artisan in the devil world, and our artifact maker It is also the strongest at the same level, the craftsman you have successfully certified in Blood Fiend is basically of two grades in other empires, you have to think about whether the hundred black crystal coins are worth it."
There is still a brand effect? Chen Rui smiled secretly. If it was really a comparison, that Nete may not be the real No. 1 in the devil world, but he just took advantage of the rules of the Masters to win. In terms of metal proficiency alone, Master Anderson of the Shadow is better than Nete. Nate still has something dark to see.
Thinking so, he still happily took out the black crystal coin: "It turns out that I have been studying with the teacher in a remote territory. Later, the teacher died of illness, so I came to the imperial capital for assessment. I don't understand these rules. Sorry, thank you for your explanation."
The registration staff saw the twenty extra black crystal coins, and saw Chen Rui's meaningful smile, glanced around carefully, and put them away calmly, feeling good for this apprentice from other places. Sensitivity has been raised several grades at once.
"Li Cha, you are a smart person." The registration officer glanced at the names on the form, and said with a smile: "There are several masters on the fourth floor who have qualification examinations, and you can choose the corresponding one according to your most proficient proficiency." Master, the chances of passing the level are much greater. For example, Master Orastan in Office No. 7 is good at metal mastery and likes magic materials of the fire department; Master Turia in Office No. 4 is good at leather mastery and likes spirits... "
Under Chen Rui's little bribery method, the registration officer revealed all the preferences and temperament of the master of the alliance, and finally reminded: "By the way, you'd better not go to the No. 13 office. Horford, the secret disciple of the president, Mr. Nate, Mr. Samuel. This lord is proficient in both metal and leather, and is also the most promising genius master maker to succeed the president. Some time ago, when Master Nate was experimenting behind closed doors, Lord Horford has been taking care of the affairs of the alliance temporarily, but Lord Horford has a weird temper and is not easy to get along with, if you are not sure, don't run into a wall."
Horford? Chen Rui immediately thought of the dual-line master who was defeated by him in the Shadow Empire Armorer Competition. It seems that he used his real name. He probably wanted to become famous in that tournament, but unfortunately he was Met Chen Rui, a monster, and became a man in the background.
Not only that, after Chen Rui entered the Crystal Valley undercover, he also met Horford. Later, there was chaos in the Crystal Valley, and the Valley of Secret Demons was also designed to be destroyed by Chen Rui. Demon Empire.
Chen Rui can be sure that Horford has an inseparable relationship with Blood Annihilation, and the first general of Blood Fiend Gustav (Bridget) is the current patriarch of the Samael royal family, and Horford is likely to be part of the Blood Annihilation organization important members of the
However, Chen Rui was not in a hurry to decide to plot against Horford. He sneaked into the Craftsman League this time for more important things.
"By the way, my lord, my teacher said before his death that there are countless precious classics and materials on tool making in the Tool Maker Alliance. I have always been very eager for this. I wonder if I can browse and read it?"
"Our books and materials here are the most abundant among the three empires, and there is a special library hall," the registrant showed pride, "However, the library hall has strict authority restrictions, and it must be made by the alliance of the country. Only teachers can enter, and the higher the level, the higher the contribution points and permissions required."
The registrant who received the benefit fee was very enthusiastic, and the introduction was extremely detailed, and even helped Chen Rui make suggestions: "For newcomers, it is relatively difficult to accumulate contribution points, and some levels require masters to enter. If not enough, Trying to worship a master as a teacher is also a shortcut. However, even if the master consumes contribution points, the core level of information may not be accessible, and the special permission of the president, Mr. Nate, must be obtained."
Chen Rui nodded. The rules of the Blood Fiend Library Hall are similar to the ancient magic tower in the shadows. Right now, it is better to pass the examination of the weapon maker first.
He bid farewell to the "enthusiastic" registration personnel, and went straight to the assessment center on the fourth floor.
