Chapter 477: Who counts whom

Views:

Sikali's three requests, money, land improvement, and Chen Rui, all want to tap An Yue's important resources, and An Yue's attitude will directly affect the future "diplomatic" relationship with Bai Ling's territory.

The previous money request has been resolved by Chen Rui's Tai Chi promotion, but the land improvement is difficult to shirk. As for the hiring of Chen Rui... someone has already taken the lead in opposing it, and it is the mysterious "Agulie".

"His Royal Highness, I don't know about the economy and land, but I don't think it's appropriate for Mrs. Chen Rui to go to Bailing's territory. Mrs. Chen Rui is talented, but he doesn't have the strength to protect himself. There have been many assassinations, and going to Bailing's territory without protection is tantamount to seeking death."

Sikali frowned, and a nobleman beside him had already spoken: "What right do you have to say that our Bailing territory is incapable of protecting this human being?"

"Strength is qualification!" Agulie stood up abruptly, a terrifying coercion radiated, and the people around were suddenly trembling with fear. The one who felt the deepest feeling was the nobleman of the Bailing territory who was directly locked by the aura. As soon as he was soft, he fell to the ground, his body trembling and unable to get up.

Sikali's complexion changed. The aura exuded by this Agulie turned out to be the peak of the Demon Emperor, not the first or middle stage of the Demon Emperor as rumored by the outside world, and that kind of murderous aura seemed to be tempered from the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood. Yes, even if he unleashes all his hidden strength, he may not be able to win. No wonder Zhuoqie would be defeated by him! But from this point, it is necessary to re-evaluate the strength of Dark Moon.

"Trash!" Agulie gave the nobleman a disdainful look, and withdrew his momentum, "If the Bailing Territory can bring out ten devil emperors to protect Chen Rui, just pretend I didn't say that!"

Ten devil emperors? The people in Bailing's territory looked at each other, are you kidding me, do you think Bailing's territory is the imperial capital

"Don't be disrespectful." Xi Ya spoke. As soon as the words came out, Agulie, who seemed rebellious just now, immediately stopped talking, and sat down obediently. Seeing this scene, Sikari was secretly startled.

"Agulie's words are a bit exaggerated, but they are telling the truth. In the dark moon alone, Chen Rui has been assassinated no less than ten times. If he hadn't been secretly protected by a devil-level powerhouse, he would have died. "The first battle at the auction has already revealed some of Dark Moon's strength, and there is a Demon Emperor strong like Krobelus, so Xi Ya's words revealed Dark Moon's deep background intentionally or unintentionally.

The refusal of this condition was expected by Sikali, and he sighed softly: "I see, Your Royal Highness, I took the liberty, and I didn't mention the matter of Lord Chen Rui, so the matter of land improvement..."

This is the key request besides the loan. Since the first two were rejected, no matter whether it is emotional or reasonable, it is difficult for An Yue to refuse the last request.

"Master Sikali, please forgive me for disturbing me. There is one thing that must be reported to Her Royal Highness." Chen Rui stood up and bowed to the two lords, "Due to the cooperation with the blood thorn flower territory, the magic soil There are only the last twenty-three crystals left, and even Dark Moon himself still has a lot of land and cannot guarantee a share... "

"Twenty-three?" Xia frowned.

Seeing Sikali's puzzled expression, Chen Rui explained that the magic soil crystallization is a treasure made according to the secret recipe of the treasure in the Blue Pond Mountain Range. It can be directly used for soil improvement, and one can transform two acres of land. It's just that the most important material for the crystallization of magic soil is the essence crystal block condensed from the Spring of Resurrection in the Blue Pond Mountain Range. This kind of crystal block has been collected at present, and the next generation time will be at least fifty years, so twenty-three It is already the last quantity.

"Your Excellency Sikali came from afar. We can't help you with the previous loan... Then, let's give fifteen to Bai Ling's territory now, and keep eight for Dark Moon's own use."

It’s not easy to say anything about this allocation, but 15 can only transform 30 acres of land. The land transformation of Bailing Territory is not calculated in units of ten or one hundred acres. It seems that Dark Moon has given quite a lot of land. But for Bai Ling, it was just a drop in the bucket.

Sikari rolled his eyes: "I have heard the name of the Spring of Resurrection for a long time, and I just want to recruit a master of pharmacy. I wonder if Your Highness can send me some spring water?"

"Elder princess, no!" Agulie was the one who objected again, "Our cooperation with the blood thorn flower territory is also sent by the dark moon to use the crystals, and the people of the blood thorn flowers are not allowed to touch the magic crystals. Now the resurrection spring and magic soil The crystallization was given to Bai Ling's territory, in case..."

Although Agulie didn't go on, the discerning people present knew what he was going to say. If the formula of the magic crystal was cracked, then Dark Moon's biggest external advantage would be gone. Chen Rui also agreed.

"Your Highness, the reason I want to revive the spring water is for that senior master, and there is absolutely no other purpose. If Your Highness doubts Bai Ling's friendship, then this magic crystal and the spring water are not worth it."

Agulie sneered and said: "Hmph! Is this a threat? With Dark Moon's current strength, he is not afraid of any threat, even the imperial capital! I have heard for a long time that Lord Sikali's strength is extraordinary, and seeing him today really deserves his reputation, and he is on par with me." I wonder if I would have the honor to ask the lord for advice?"

Sikali frowned, unexpectedly, Agulie could see through his hidden strength!

"Agulie, don't be presumptuous! Lord Sikali is our important guest!" Xia repelled Agulie and said: "Bai Ling and An Yue are friendly family friends, and Your Excellency Sikali is a royal family just like me. , I trust Your Excellency Sikali, the resurrection spring water is a bit special, and it will become invalid after a period of time, and it needs a magic container from the Pharmacist Association to preserve it, so I can give you ten bottles of resurrection spring water."

"Your Highness!" Agulie and Chen Rui shouted at the same time this time.

"Don't say any more, I've already made up my mind," Xia glanced at Sikari lightly, with strong confidence in his eyes, "As Agulie said, the Dark Moon is not afraid of any threats today, so what's the matter?" Worrying?"

This kind of demeanor made everyone feel heartbroken. Sikari was slightly moved, and more of it was the horror in his heart. He could hear that Xi Ya's words were also a hidden warning-I have absolute strength, and I am not afraid of you playing tricks. I'm afraid you won't play tricks!

With this feeling, Sikari will be much more cautious next time. After Shia put forward some proposals to learn from each other's strengths and make up for weaknesses in terms of resources, Sikari did not shirk and showed a positive attitude.

The friendly meeting of verbal confrontation and mutual scheming ended in a seemingly friendly atmosphere.

After the friendly meeting ended, Sikali didn't stay in Dark Moon for too long. On the pretext that there was still business in the territory, he hurriedly left Dark Moon with Palando and others with the "Magic Soil Crystal" and the Spring of Resurrection that day.

Both Xi Ya and Chen Rui knew that Sikali left in a hurry because they were afraid that the promise of "Magic Soil Crystallization" and the Spring of Resurrection would change. And the Fountain of Resurrection will still fall into the hands of Obsidian.

However, no matter how hard Black Yao and Sikari rack their brains, it is impossible to decipher the mystery of "crystallization". Because the core of that kind of crystal is a bit of refining dust, and the other 99% is a diluted mixture that confuses people and listens, and there are all kinds of messes. Refining dust, the improvement effect is naturally very limited, which is also the origin of "one crystal can only improve two acres of land".

Sikali thinks he has a trick, but he doesn't know that he was tricked, and the three requests are all in vain in the end.

The "Agulie" who sang bad faces at the meeting one after another was pretended by Chen Rui's puppet Rocky. Anyway, Agulie wears the outfit of the cloaked man. Since he can attend such an occasion, who would dare to doubt it? Facts have proved that the peak strength of the Rocky Demon Emperor really had the expected deterrent effect on Sikari.

Looking at the overall situation, "Magic Soil Crystallization" is just an unexpected harvest for Sikali. Whether it is celebrating Xiya's birthday, improving the soil or inviting Chen Rui, it is just a cover. Sikali came to Dark Moon The real intention is to test.

This temptation is not only for Obsidian in the imperial capital, but also for Sikari himself. Bai Ling's territory is undoubtedly the type of grass on the wall. Chen Rui and Xi Ya's plan is a combination of grace. If they don't turn against Bai Ling's territory, they may still be able to give certain benefits, but the foundation of these is based on their own toughness and self-confidence . Being able to keep the Bailing Territory in a vacillating posture in the battle between Dark Moon and the Imperial Capital is success.

From the point of view of the visit alone, both parties were successful.

Chen Rui originally had the idea of intercepting and killing Sikari halfway, but Sikari would probably go to the imperial capital to meet with Hei Yao first, and there should be strong people to support and protect him in the dark, besides, Sikali has his own plans. He, instead of a lord who completely obeyed the imperial capital, was self-defeating instead.

As for the two puppets of the God-eating Mask, the quota is already full. Even if one is destroyed and Sikali is turned into a puppet, there is no guarantee that the emperor will not see through it. After all, the God-eating Mask is not omnipotent. As long as the overall situation is confirmed, the first thing Chen Rui will eradicate is Bai Ling's territory, not only for the public, but also for private, not only Sikali, but also Palando, who once hated Ji Ya. Women, everything has to be cut and rooted, but that's another story.

The Regent King Hei Yao was already facing a predicament. As time went by, this predicament would become more and more obvious. If nothing unexpected happened, Dark Moon would be able to bring down the opponent step by step without having to directly conflict with the imperial capital.

At this time, Loki, who was pretending to be "Agulie", suddenly sent a message that Master Dada wanted to see Agulie in a hurry.

Since the last time Chen Rui returned to the Dark Moon Territory from the Blood Fiend Empire after defeating Nate, he has not appeared as "Agulie". The most important thing is to avoid Catherine's attention, and this time Loki Incident, Her Majesty's suspicion of "Agulie" will definitely increase, so it's better to keep it mysterious. However, during the meeting between An Yue and Bai Ling this time, Agulie showed his face again, which would definitely attract the attention of all parties, but it was unexpected that Master Da Da would be so eager to see him.

Chen Rui remembered that he "dropped in" to Dark Moon with Bailing Lord Xicari. There was a famous master craftsman, Tetnis, who seemed to be a friend of Da Da. related.

In fact, Da Da didn't know that he had already met the "real" Agulie when Alice and Sister Eve had a dispute last time.

After thinking about it, Chen Rui decided to go to the cloak meeting.
