The Holy Mountain of Light, the radiant forest of the Temple of the Holy Family.
The Forest of Glory is on the hill behind the Palace of the Holy Family. The trees in this forest are all white, and there is a statue of an angel standing in it. This statue is about four meters high, with handsome features, and two pairs of wings behind it. A book exudes a faint sacred atmosphere.
The saint Eudora was half-kneeling in front of the statue, praying in a low voice. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew across the entire white forest, and there was already a man in front of the statue. This man was of medium build, with brown hair and blue eyes, and a book under his armpit. His appearance was very similar to a statue. He looked refined and handsome, but there was an invisible deterrence in his calm eyes.
"Eudora, I heard your anxious prayers in my sleep, and I deliberately woke up early. Is something wrong?"
"Master Yisyorul," Yudora lowered her head, "I'm sorry to wake you up early, but this matter is too important, and I have to disturb you."
"Oh?" The man frowned, "What is it?"
Udora told the story of "Richard" sneaking into the holy mountain and destroying the holy tree pretending to be a Templar knight's entourage, but she only concealed the matter of the phoenix egg.
"What?" The man was still calm at first, but when he heard the disappearance of the Xuedalai tree, he was finally moved and said angrily, "You bastards! You let the enemy break into the holy mountain and destroy the holy tree! Do you know that there are consequences for this?" How serious is it?"
Yudora felt the powerful coercion, her body trembled slightly, she didn't dare to use her strength to resist, and her head lowered: "My lord, please calm down, we are incompetent, this incident is probably related to the Black Death , Before the incident, there were three incidents of blasphemy by the Black Death in the Yangshao Kingdom. The Holy Mountain sent a court and a large number of troops to go out to suppress it, but unexpectedly, the enemy was so cruel and cunning that they dared to sneak into the Holy Mountain at this time... Judging from Pusmir's analysis, the Shedalay tree was not necessarily destroyed, but was probably taken away by the enemy with magic. This blood bead was left by that enemy. I implore you to use your divine eyes to search for that Enemy tracks."
"Black Death?" A cold light flashed across Yisyorul's eyes, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, the dark red blood drop that Yudora offered floated up, and the gap between his brows gradually opened, revealing a third eye , the golden pupil shot out a shining light, shining on the blood bead, and a large light red projection gradually appeared behind the blood bead, which was a three-dimensional image.
The center of the image is a fat figure. The "camera" seems to be tracking and shooting, always locking on this fat man. Many buildings can be seen along the way, especially some iconic buildings. If people who are familiar with the geography of the human world see it, The location of the "fat man" is ready to be revealed.
The "fat man" in the projection didn't know that the crisis was slowly approaching, and he was walking casually among the crowd at this time.
The territory of the human world is very vast, and its population density is far greater than that of the Demon Realm. In addition to the two holy empires, there are many large and small kingdoms, which compete for each other's interests, and sometimes wars occur. However, several kingdoms have always remained neutral. There are public teleportation points, which can greatly shorten the time of long-distance travel.
In fact, behind these neutral kingdoms are the two holy empires. The real intention of the teleportation point is more of a strategic role. Of course, at present, the two empires still maintain a peaceful and friendly relationship on the surface. There are various cooperations in various fields, and there are many marriages. The most famous of them is Princess Lanbis, who is known as the pearl of the Lanyao Empire. The marriage with the third prince Arthur of the Longhuang Empire, because when the engagement was about to be engaged, Prince Arthur suddenly disappeared.
Since Emperor Longhuang Rex insisted that Arthur did not die in the bloodline induction, then if Princess Lanbis agreed to someone else, it would be tantamount to slapping Emperor Rex and the entire Longhuang Empire in the face, so that Lan Bisi can only hang on the identity of "Arthur's fiancée", hanging there without going up or down.
What Chen Rui is going to now is the Kingdom of Roja, one of the neutral kingdoms. From the portal of the Kingdom of Loya, you can reach the Kingdom of Starlight, and then you can directly reach the outer edge of the Emerald Forest from the waterway of the Kingdom of Starlight.
The Kingdom of Starlight is a true neutral kingdom, and the Starlight Academy in the kingdom is the most famous academy among human beings. It has a long history and has cultivated countless elite talents. Many geniuses have left a strong mark in human history. Many nobles from empires or kingdoms have sent their children to study at Starlight Academy, including... Long Huang Arthur, the third prince of the empire, this is what Chen Rui learned from the fused memory fragments.
Chen Rui started from Garton City, passed through several small countries, and finally arrived at Mingjing City, the city where the teleportation point of the Loya Kingdom is located. When he was in the Loya Kingdom, he had already become a chubby businessman with a fat head and big ears. , the small eyes shone shrewdly and cunningly.
Changing this appearance was a cover-up for the sake of caution. Of course, Chen Rui didn't know that there was a fake Erlang God in the holy mountain, and he didn't know that his Xingzang had been exposed because of the blood left by the injury.
The second reason is that in order to purchase fire-type ore resources more conveniently, Phoenix eggs have an increasing demand for fire-type power. The batch of fire-type ore that went back to Garton City has already been exhausted, and they bought it twice along the way. Now that food is running out again - before the eggs hatch, Chen Rui already has a deep understanding of the word "waiting to be fed".
Mirror City is the second largest city in the Loya Kingdom. Because of the teleportation point, it is not even as prosperous as the imperial capital. However, to Chen Rui's surprise, he walked through several magic stores or material stores, and only bought two in total. Ten pieces of middle and lower quality fire crystals, after refining, are not enough for the little phoenix to eat. Once the "food" is insufficient, the vitality of the little phoenix will drop sharply. Chen Rui doesn't want to starve it to death.
The clerk of the last magic shop showed an apologetic expression: "I'm sorry, customer, we only have these few fire crystals in the shop."
Chen Ruilu looked curious: "Why are fire crystals so tight? I see that you have a lot of other magic crystals in stock?"
"It's like this. Clyde, the priest of the Temple of Light, bought all the high-quality fire-type spar in the city a while ago. We urgently transferred several batches and sold them to Lord Clyde. Demand, now the fire spars in Mirror City are basically out of stock."
"Why did Lord Clyde buy the fire spar?"
"I don't know. If customers don't need it urgently, they can order it in our store in advance. The fastest time for the next batch to arrive is one month later, which is already the fastest in the city."
Chen Rui shook his head. He was in urgent need. Due to energy replenishment and repairs, the portal of Mirror City is opened once a month. Now there are still two days before the opening of the portal. If you miss this time, you will have to wait another month .
Chen Rui thought for a while, and set his target on Pastor Clyde. Anyway, he has already formed an "indissoluble bond" with the church. Even Xue Dalai and Xiao Fenghuang have been stolen, so this ignition system crystal is not bad. stone.
After inquiring about the location of the Temple of Light, Chen Rui went straight, passed through a small square, and suddenly stopped, his eyes fell on a man sitting under the statue.
This man has an ordinary appearance, short black hair, a red headband, and a few strings of weird ornaments on his body. From a distance, he looks a bit sloppy. He is laying out a few playing cards on the ground.
Chen Rui walked over and looked at the man curiously.
Race: Human.
Comprehensive strength evaluation: D (S)
Physique D-(S-), Strength D-(S), Spirit D(S), Speed D(S+).
Analysis: light attribute, wind attribute.
Although he looks like a high-level demon, his real strength has reached the middle level of a devil emperor.
The man looked at Chen Rui who was approaching him, and immediately said: "My lord, the magic card divination here is the most accurate. Do you want to know the future fortune? Wealth fortune, women's fortune, and career fortune can all be measured. Need a black crystal coin!"
Chen Rui was a little ashamed, this guy with the middle strength of the devil emperor was actually a fortune teller, and he was a little familiar with that kind of fortune teller cards, the golden emperor, the white queen, the dark king...
A duel of fate!
When Chen Rui competed with the Lich King Glorios in the land of hatred in the Sea of Death, he used this kind of ancient game magic card. Unexpectedly, it also exists in the human world.
Seeing Chen Rui's interested expression, the man said again: "The guest seems to be a knowledgeable person, so he should know the magic effect of this ancient divination card..."
"As far as I know, the duel of fate is not a divination card." Chen Rui shook his head, "And I'm not interested in divination, what I'm interested in is your bead chain, please make a price."
What Chen Rui is referring to is a string of red beads on the man's hand. This string of beads looks old and weird, but it is actually made of rare flame soul stones, which have powerful fire power. It is said that only the fire element is extremely rich Only a small amount of volcanoes are produced. This bead chain is of high purity and hardly needs to be refined. Although the quantity is not much, the quality is very high, enough for the little phoenix to "eat" for several days.
The man's eyes were bright, and he looked at Chen Rui seriously, but he didn't see through the strength of the disguise, and grinned: "Fatty, I can't tell, you really have eyesight, and you can recognize the origin of this magic card at a glance, except for that Old guy, you are the second... My bead chain is not for sale, no matter how much money you pay, it's useless, but, but, since you know "Fate Showdown", you must be an expert... If you can beat me three times , I’ll give you this flame soul stone bead chain, how about it? If you lose, give me all the money.”
Chen Rui's heart moved, showing hesitation: "I just watched two seniors play this kind of cards. It seems that there are special poker tables and three ways to play. It shouldn't be difficult, but my mental power is too weak to drive it. These magic cards."
"Mental power is not a problem!" The man suddenly regained his energy and jumped up, "My domain can... well, I have a way, as long as you know how to play, I promise not to consume mental power!"
"I'm not very good at playing..." Chen Rui said very reservedly.
"Not so good? That's a little bit good? Great! Let's play a thousand games, and it's enough for you to beat me three times." The man showed great enthusiasm.
"A thousand games?" Chen Rui was taken aback, this buddy is too much, "I don't have so much time, I'm leaving the day after tomorrow."
"Then five hundred games! Three hundred games? One hundred games?"
"Is it... as long as you win three times first?" Chen Rui looked at the beaded chain, his small eyes lit up.
