In Darkmoon City, the cloak society is based in the ancient terrace house.
It was already late at night. With the identity of "Agulie", Chen Rui entered the backyard of Gutai House unimpeded all the way. Dark Moon City is one of the two star points. It only takes a moment.
The Skye and Tata families have gone to sleep, only the lights in Tetnis's laboratory are still on.
Knocking on the door, Chen Rui saw that there were medicine bottles and instruments inside, and many of them were filled with transpired solutions that were bubbling.
"Back?" Tetnis asked casually, and the old man thought that Chen Rui had returned from the frontline Moonlight Fortress.
Of course Chen Rui would not explain, nodded and said: "Come back for a night, and leave after finishing the work."
"I'm experimenting with the ingredients of the black potion. Look at these potions and formulas, do you have any familiar memories?"
The black potion that Chen Rui gave to Tetnis was exchanged by the super system. The "Great Master Inheritance Configuration" is purely fictitious. How can I know what kind of formula it is? Guided by his consciousness, he has no memory of his own."
"The mystery of the black potion is endless, and now I can only feel a little bit of the edge, but it's a pity that I can't get in." The old man sighed regretfully.
Chen Rui thought about the situation when he took the black potion back then, and said, "Teacher, you can try to drink the potion, experience the wonderful feeling, and maybe you can make new discoveries."
"Of course I thought about it, it's just that these black potions are too precious, I need to keep them for analysis..."
Before he finished speaking, the old man's eyes suddenly became straight, and he saw black potions appearing in Chen Rui's hands one after another, and put them on the table: "These are all real potions, which were prepared some time ago. Teacher can try it, don't I can't bear it."
"Good guy!" Tetnis's eyes suddenly burst into fiery light, as if these cold medicine bottles were long-lost old lovers.
Seeing that the old man was about to start experimenting immediately with great interest, Chen Rui hurriedly protected the potion, and said his intention first: "I rushed back to Dark Moon overnight, and I have an urgent matter to ask the teacher."
"Long story short!" The old man replied, his eyes fixed on the potion behind Chen Rui's hand.
"Teacher, have you heard of the Wheel of Hera?"
"Hera's Wheel?" Tetnis was taken aback, "This is an ancient pseudo-artifact, why do you ask this?"
"Pseudo-artifact?" Chen Rui seems to have heard this term in some classics, "Teacher, to tell you the truth, I went out this time for a secret mission, not on the front line. During this mission, I found some key The clues related to Hera's wheel, so I went back to ask the teacher for advice."
Tetnis recalled and explained.
In the concept of general instrumentation, magic equipment is divided into three levels: high-level, excellent level, and legendary level, and artifacts above the legendary level. In fact, there are still some powerful equipment that surpasses the legendary level, but does not reach the standard of artifacts, which are called pseudo-artifacts.
Pseudo-artifacts are quite close to artifacts in some attributes, and they are no longer what a master craftsman can make. At least they must be at the level of a quasi-master like Tetnis. difficult things.
"At the level of pseudo-artifacts and above, the percentage of equipment bonus is no longer the biggest criterion for measuring value, but an attribute that undergoes qualitative changes. For example... I remember that there is a chain of life that can increase lifespan by 20%, delay Aging, the actual meaning of this 'twenty percent' is far from what it means to increase attack and defense by 40 percent." Speaking of these, Tetnis was very familiar with it, and talked about it with eloquence.
Chen Rui couldn't help nodding his head. His God-eating mask actually didn't have bonus effects, but it was so powerful that it was by no means comparable to legendary equipment.
"Just as there are good and bad legendary equipment, fake artifacts and artifacts also have strengths and weaknesses. It is said that the Wheel of Hera is a failed work of an ancient artifact. Although it is only a fake artifact, it contains powerful power. A super-general pseudo-artifact, in a sense, even comparable to an artifact. The Wheel of Hera is also called the Wheel of Faith. The strongest function is to absorb the power of faith and transform it into the user's own strength !"
The power of faith? This familiar term surprised Chen Rui. The Wheel of Hera can absorb the power of transforming faith. Isn't it similar to the tower of faith in the super system? There is such a thing in the devil world!
Chen Rui suddenly remembered the almost crazy worship of the Lord Sikali by the people in Bailing's territory, and his heart moved, and he vaguely understood some reasons.
Tetnis continued to explain that in the inheritance memory he accepted, only the gods can possess the "power of faith". Even demigod-level powerhouses can only be accumulated and realized in a specific domain and country The power of faith.
Therefore, the power of faith absorbed by the Wheel of Hera cannot be directly absorbed by people below the demigod level powerhouse, and a special medium body is needed. The owner of the Wheel of Hera can use the induction of this pseudo-artifact to find the person with the most suitable physique among the people of faith, and through the transformation of the Wheel of Hera, it becomes a clone that retains independent consciousness and power.
After these avatars absorb the power of faith, their strength will grow rapidly. During this growth process, the owner of the Wheel of Hera will also benefit at the same time. After reaching a certain limit, the owner of the Wheel of Hera will absorb all the life and power of the avatar through the method of devouring, and obtain all the power transformed by the power of faith.
The avatar and the main body are equivalent to an irreversible relationship of a master-slave contract, unable to resist the swallowing of the main body, and even unable to escape.
Chen Rui finally figured out the function of the Wheel of Hera - just like a pyramid scheme, the benefits earned by downlines will be distributed to uplines. Not only that, but in the end, the downline is swallowed as a tonic. Judging from the function of increasing strength, the Wheel of Hera is indeed comparable to an artifact.
From this point of view, the two Sikali he met were not the real Lord Bai Ling, but "supplements" waiting to be devoured. The one who played brother and sister SM in the secret room should be a clone who was about to be devoured, no wonder there was such a thing. A kind of hysterical madness. Then, the real Sikali's strength should still be above the clone of the Demon Emperor's peak, the level of the Demon Emperor!
What a lord of Bai Ling, who hides so deeply! If it weren't for the rise of the dark moon, the Bailing territory would be the most powerful territory of the Fallen Angel Empire!
"Teacher, look at this sword," Chen Rui thought of one thing, "Is this a fake artifact or an artifact?"
After Tetnis answered the question about Hera's Wheel, he was planning to continue researching potions, but when he heard this, he immediately turned around and saw the Beiming sword in Chen Rui's hand, his eyes widened again.
After listening to Chen Rui's function, the old man took out the instrument to appraise it carefully, and said full of praise: "This kind of craftsmanship is simply flawless, even if it is a divine weapon, it is nothing more than that! And the ceremony of recognizing the master with blood , already belongs to the category of divine weapon, but unfortunately, it still can’t reach the level of real divine weapon. It can only be regarded as a fake divine weapon, a very powerful fake divine weapon.”
Chen Rui nodded. After listening to Tetnis explain the concept of false artifacts in detail, he had vaguely guessed the answer. The equipment produced by systems such as Beiming, Judgment, and Leiyin should all belong to the category of false artifacts. After turning around, he asked again: "Then what about the seven artifacts of the demon world? Are they real artifacts?"
"Of course!" the old man said without hesitation, "Of course the seven artifacts are real artifacts, and they are the most powerful artifacts. The real power can only be exerted when they are gathered together. If it is just a single piece, it may be similar to ordinary artifacts or even fake artifacts. The problem is that the seven artifacts can only be used if they correspond to the blood of the royal family. There is no mixed blood in the demon world. It is also impossible for someone to use more than one of the seven artifacts at the same time, so this has always been a mystery."
Chen Rui suddenly realized that the combination of seven pieces is the real strongest artifact!
No wonder the Sword of the Fallen Angel, the Magic Shield, the Shadow Cloak... These are just a complete set of equipment. As long as you gather all the seven artifacts, you can have the power to fight against the gods. What Tetnis said that no one can use more than one artifact is not the biggest problem for Chen Rui, because he now owns two, uh, one and a half artifacts to be precise.
I just don't know that the right to use the artifacts cracked by the super system is actually a kind of cheating. Does it meet the standards for the integration of the seven artifacts
Chen Rui shook his head. Now is not the time to think about it. Now that he has got the answer from the Wheel of Hera, it seems that he needs to make some corresponding preparations.
"Teacher, don't look at this sword, it is my life-saving thing, you should study the black potion first!"
"Hmph! Mysterious boy, get out of here if you have nothing to do!"
When Chen Rui returned to the house, he saw a delicate figure sitting in the garden under the purple moonlight, holding a plucked flower in his hand.
The succubus maid's voice whispered to herself: "I don't know how he is doing outside, does he miss me more, or Athena and Lorado? Or... the eldest princess?"
"Jia, Athena, Lola, the eldest princess, Ji Ya, Athena..." The poor petals fell one by one in the hands of the little maid, and in the end only one piece was left bare, and the little maid was stunned: "The eldest princess? no!"
As a result, another innocent flower was plucked, falling one after another in the hands of the little maid.
"Athena, Gia, Laura, the eldest princess..."
"Athena?" The little maid looked frustrated: "I knew I wouldn't change positions..."
Just as she was about to continue picking flowers, she suddenly looked back vigilantly, and saw a smiling face that was thinking day and night appeared behind her.
The little maid couldn't believe her eyes, she wiped her eyes vigorously, her eyes became more and more surprised, and she threw herself into the arms of the man: "Chen Rui, you are back!"
"It's something important. I'll be back for a while, and I'll leave soon." Chen Rui stroked the soft wings of the little maid, "Is the army of the imperial capital starting to attack Dark Moon? Athena and the others are not here."
"Well, Athena, Pagliu, Olypheus, and Lomon have gone to the Moonlight Fortress, and Krobelus and Delia are in the palace. By the way, I just received news that the imperial army is at the Moonlight Fortress. I suffered a lot in the first battle and was forced to withdraw, but Athena made a great contribution this time."
"It doesn't matter if you make meritorious deeds, the key is safety." Chen Rui secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and asked, "Where is Laura? Is it in Rainbow Valley?"
"I just came back and only asked Athena and Laura, and they knew that I was lowly in status and weak in strength, not as good as them..." The little maid was teary, with a charming appearance.
"Stop messing around," Chen Rui knew the character of Yao Mozi's little maid, and gently twisted that delicate face: "I have something urgent to find Laura, and I have to go back later."
The little maid asked coyly: "It's so late, let's go tomorrow, I'm a little scared by myself..."
Obviously a poor excuse...
Seeing the expectant look of the succubus maid, Chen Rui softened his heart and nodded. For a long time, in order to gain recognition, Ji Ya was willing to be a small follower beside Athena, often "advancing and retreating together", and rarely accompanied her alone. Anyway, returning to Bai Ling's territory is just to open a portal, and there should be enough time.
Chen Rui suddenly remembered that he saw some kind of restricted-grade lens in the projection not long ago, and his heart felt hot. He couldn't help but grabbed the back of the elastic buttocks, and said a few words in the little maid's ear.
The little maid's buttocks trembled slightly, and the pinch was a little tight. A blush flashed across her face, and there was a seductive brilliance in her winking eyes. She bit her lip and said "En".
"Go and take a nice shower, and then wait for me in the room." Chen Rui chuckled, touched it again, and walked towards the teleportation array in Rainbow Valley.
The little maid blushed and tore the innocent petals with joy. When the last petal was left, she showed a small smug smile: "Jiya!"
Chen Rui entered Rainbow Valley and found Luo La in the laboratory.
When the Fairy Miss Long saw Chen Rui, she was also very pleasantly surprised. Chen Rui briefly stated the purpose of coming: "I want to ask you to help me improve a talisman prop from last time. It may be useful at some critical moments."
"Ask me?" There seemed to be a glimmer of dissatisfaction behind Lola's glasses. Do you want to be so polite
"Yes, please do it yourself, my beloved Laura." Chen Rui winked at her, and hugged the fairy Miss Long's slender waist from behind.
"Oh." Fairy Miss Long also responded happily in her heart, and the little dissatisfaction disappeared in an instant, "If you are in a hurry to use it, I will start to do it now, and it will be successful in one night, but this kind of prop can only be used Once, you have to pay attention."
Chen Rui nodded: "Now time is very tight, so I have to work hard on you. Remember not to work too hard on research, and when the matter of the imperial capital is over, I will be your assistant again, and we will experiment together."
"En." The fairy lady Long nodded, feeling her heart was warm, it felt really good.
"How was Zareth's research last time?"
"Zerey" is a prop that Chen Rui bought at the trade fair in Mordor Town, Chiyou Territory. It is very powerful. Two of them have been used, and the remaining one is given to Luo La for research, hoping to imitate more. .
"There have been some results. In addition to the dragon language inscriptions that were triggered, there are at least twelve yuan ancient rune marks inside. Due to material problems, I only succeeded in making five imitations, which are much less powerful. , you can use it first..."
Fairy Miss Long was obviously not satisfied with her own results, took out the imitation, took the props handed over by Chen Rui, and broke free from his arms, "Okay, now I have to concentrate on making, you go to rest first Bar."
Luo La is quite focused on the research work, Chen Rui did not disturb her, quietly exited Rainbow Valley and returned to the yard, just in time to see the light on in the little maid's room, obviously waiting for him in vain, her eyes lit up, Go to the house.
