Arriving at the Ancient Terrace House, the stronghold of the Cloak Society, Chen Rui in a cloak saw Eve, Ariane, and Miss Sasa walking out of it.
As soon as Ariane saw him, she jumped over happily, and said happily, "It's Master Agulie!"
"Ariane, long time no see." Chen Rui patted her head habitually. He didn't feel it during the dispute in the magic shop last time. Now when he did this action, he realized that Ariane had grown a lot taller. .
Not only Ariane, but Eve also came out beautifully, but she was still as shy as usual, and saluted him with a blushing face, with a faint light of joy in her eyes.
For the leader, Ms. Sasa has always been in awe, and she took the initiative to report that the three of them made an appointment with the little princess Alice to go to the night market, and now they are going to Princess Square to wait for Alice to "get off work".
Chen Rui nodded. It seems that Little Lolita has really turned "enemies" into friends with these three girls. With these friends, at least her life and emotions in the future will be much more fulfilling. Much stronger in Bad Books.
Loki, the puppet at the peak of the Demon Emperor, has been assigned by him to secretly protect Alice and Ji Ya. With the guards of the Imperial Guard and some protective equipment for Alice, there shouldn't be a big problem in terms of safety.
After saying goodbye to the three girls, Chen Rui walked all the way into the backyard and met the three master craftsmen who had been waiting for him for a long time: Da Da, Skye, and Tetnis.
Seeing the appearance of this long-lost mysterious figure, the three of them reacted differently. Master Da Da still had a stinky face, with a bit of warmth in his eyes, Skye's face was full of gratitude and joy, and Tete Master Nice was even more exaggerated. He walked up in a few steps, his eyes glowing green, as if he saw something extraordinary and novel.
If it wasn't for Chen Rui wearing a cloak to hide his true face, he would have been unable to withstand this old glass-like gaze and retreated.
"Are you the three-line proficient genius master who made a lot of noise in the devil world?"
Tetnis's first sentence surprised Chen Rui, and he felt a strong displeasure in his heart. This is an extremely important secret, and Da Da and Skye revealed it to him without permission. The never-before-seen Tetnis!
"Are you still proficient in magic circles? And you have the talent of magic eyes?" Tetnis became more and more excited as he spoke, but Chen Rui had already calmed down, and glanced at Da Da and Skye lightly, without responding.
This is no longer a secret of the masters of the three lines. The "Magic Eye" involved the identity of "Li Cha" of the Blood Fiend Empire Artisan Alliance. It was probably guessed by Da Da and Skye, but they also said it!
In any case, this matter must not be leaked out, even if Tetnis is the peak of the Demon Emperor, he must be obliterated.
As he was thinking about it, Tetnis's third sentence came out: "Would you like to worship me as a teacher?"
Chen Rui was stunned again. Seeing the smiles of Da Da and Skye, he seemed to understand a little bit, and the gloom in his chest was relieved immediately - it turned out that it was not being betrayed, but kindness.
However, his brows frowned again: he is also a master who is proficient in the three departments, and with the help of various experience materials and experiments in the refining room, he has now reached the level of a senior master, and he thinks that his art of making weapons is not inferior to that of the devil world. anyone. Tetnis in front of him is known as the strongest master who is proficient in accessories and props, and he may be able to discuss with him and make progress together, but I am afraid that this old man is not qualified enough to talk about apprenticeship.
Although he couldn't see Chen Rui's expression, Tetnis could see through his mind at a glance, and his eyes rolled: "Do you think my old man is not qualified to teach you?"
This old man is very straightforward, and he seems to be a straightforward person, so he is worthy of friendship. Otherwise, with the tempers of Master Da Da and Master Skye, he would definitely not easily reveal such an important secret. Maybe this Master Tetnis really has some secret skills.
Chen Rui's thoughts were spinning, but he nodded, knowing that the old man must have something to say, Tetnis really looked like "I knew it earlier", and smiled confidently: "Since I know your secret, I will tell you my two secrets now." A secret. The first secret, you know it, I basically know it, and I am stronger than you; I know it, but you don't, that's why I can be your teacher."
This tone is not small. Chen Ruiguang is a "talent" on the bright side, including three-line proficient masters, magic circle geniuses, and magic eye talents. Could it be that this old man who is only proficient in accessories and props is a three-line proficient master and magic circle masters?
A trace of sadness flashed across Tetnis's eyes: "The second secret is that I have only one year left to live, and I want to pass it on before I die. It's not that my life is not long, even if you are talented, you may not be in my eyes. With your talent and level, you can gain something... Well, stop talking nonsense, every minute of my time will be one less Now, the red tape of the apprenticeship ceremony will be avoided, just bow to me three times."
Three bows? And then a minute's silence? Chen Rui secretly slandered, why did this old man pretend to be a teacher without asking whether he agreed or not
"What if I don't agree?"
"Hmph!" Tetnis rolled his eyelids, "I am the Demon Emperor's peak strength, surpassing you in terms of strength, and I have so many secrets of yours. If you don't agree, I will spread your secrets everywhere!"
Chen Rui is a little embarrassed, what is this called? Forced buying and strong selling + reckless threats? I've never seen such an apprentice!
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little stiff, Skye said: "Agulie, promise, in fact, we only found out in the past few days that Master Tetnis is actually a quasi-master who is proficient in three departments! Not only that, but also a Potion quasi-master! For you, this is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
Chen Rui's heart was shocked: I didn't expect that the random guessing before was almost inseparable. I didn't expect that there were all kinds of alchemists who were proficient in both pharmacy and instrument making in the devil world, and they all reached the realm of quasi-grandmasters!
A quasi-grandmaster is a level between a grandmaster and a master, and is infinitely close to a master, only one step away. Although they are still called "masters", their level is much higher than that of senior masters. Even in the alliance of toolmakers of the three empires, there is no single-line quasi-grandmaster. is coming
"Don't question it, Master Tetnis has fully proved this in front of us," Master Da Da also said, "He wanted to pass on his skills to me, but I think you are more suitable than me, so I recommended you in front of the master."
Chen Rui knew why Tetnis was looking for Da Da, and when he saw the stinky face of Master Da Da, his heart felt warm.
Skye said with emotion: "There are many hermits and strange people in the devil world, not every alchemist is willing to rely on a certain force, especially the struggle related to the desire for power, it is easy to distract people, and they cannot concentrate on skills , to reach a higher level. In the past two years, I have been aloof from the world in the cloak society, and my mentality is very different from before. I feel that my mental state has improved, and I have also comprehended some things that I could not see before."
Chen Rui thought of Nate, the No. 1 master tool maker in the devil world who was obsessed with fame and fortune, and finally went astray, and nodded with deep emotion.
"Master Feng Saka is right. If it wasn't for the prize materials for the second place in the Masters that year, I wouldn't be too lazy to come up with this boring name. In fact, Tetnis is just a pseudonym, and there are many other names. It’s just a code name anyway.”
Judging from what Tetnis said, he deliberately only took the second place back then, and Skye obviously also revealed his true identity and experience.
The quasi-grandmaster looked at Chen Rui with undisguised approval: "Your aptitude is excellent, and what is more valuable is your character. You can help Master Fengsaka in times of crisis, and revenge for him You don't hesitate to go deep into danger, and I appreciate that."
Chen Rui smiled wryly and said: "To be honest, I helped Master Fengsaka just by hand, not necessarily without the purpose of taking advantage of his value."
Skye and Dada looked at each other and smiled.
"Well, honesty can be added to the advantages." The more the old man looked at Chen Rui, the more pleasing he was. If he had a daughter, he would definitely stuff it into his arms and force her to marry him now.
honest? My greatest skill is fooling around, isn't this wronging people? Er... This is a beautiful misunderstanding! Chen Rui caught a glimpse of the old man's sheep-like gaze, and knew that it was getting darker and darker, so he simply didn't explain.
"However, your character still needs to be sharpened! I suggest you immediately give up the position of the leader of the Cloak Society and that legion commander, and leave Dark Moon with me to study for a year. As long as you put aside your utilitarianism, you will definitely surpass me in the future Reached the realm of Dacheng. Okay, so much wordy, back to the topic, hurry up and learn from the teacher!"
It seems that this "teacher" has even arranged for himself in the future, Chen Rui shook his head secretly, and said with a wry smile: "With the current situation, it is impossible for me to leave Dark Moon, why don't I find a qualified teacher for the master if I have a chance?" A better disciple."
The old man became angry all of a sudden: "Hmph! Knowing my level, I'm still pushy. Who in the entire devil world has better qualifications than you? Besides, I don't have much time, but I can't afford to wait so long. You have to promise today, no If you agree, you have to agree! If you find it troublesome, the etiquette of apprenticeship will be waived. In a word, from now on, you are my disciple."
Alright, now I'm going to directly force you to become a disciple... Chen Rui rolled his eyes, but he knew that the old man had good intentions, and this was a rare opportunity that should not be missed, but the request to leave the dark moon was a bit too much, so he thought quickly stand up.
"Um, Master Tetnis, you two masters and apprentices talk slowly, and Data and I will go out for a walk." Skye thought for a while, stood up, and pulled Dada.
Da Da rolled his eyes, and said to Chen Rui: "Boy, if my kindness is wasted, I will never end with you!"
After speaking, he left the backyard with the dark elf master.
