Augustus looked at his prospective son-in-law who was staring at him, and suddenly sighed: "Olyphise's mother passed away early, but she is actually a little girl who doesn't understand anything, with a pure personality, she can hardly adapt In this world, if I hadn't been lucky enough to meet you, it's very likely... I won't be able to see her anymore. "
This sentence made Chen Rui blush. To be honest, Olypheus was basically tricked by him into being a bodyguard. The low price made a "human", let alone a "dragon".
"Isabella is a very smart woman. I have been taught more than once, and I can guess that she will definitely suggest that you marry Olypheus to stabilize me. This is a strategy that is most in line with the current situation and interests. But You don't seem to follow her plan... Maybe it's understandable that you are a guy who doesn't play cards according to common sense, or maybe, as you said, a fool." Augustus suddenly showed a rare expression of appreciation: "It's also a real I admire you very much. How about this, Olypheus is your fiancee, I believe in your sense of responsibility, as for the future... I don't care, you can make up your own mind!"
Chen Rui was a little taken aback. It was the first time that Lord Dragon Emperor spoke to him in such an attitude. As for his fiancée...
Augustus took a few steps forward, looking far into the sky, with far-reaching eyes: "The road to power is like walking on thin ice, and there are dangers everywhere. Even a demigod is still in danger of being annihilated at any time. For demigods, condensing the godhead is not enough. If you risk your life, if you win, you can touch the threshold of becoming a god. Once you fail, your strength will be greatly damaged, and your strength will be wiped out. I encountered a strong enemy many years ago, and my soul has not healed yet. This kind of situation is very dangerous to hit the bottleneck, but Olypheus's situation is actually very unstable, Isabella's appeasement can't really cure it, and I don't have much time left, so I want to take a risk."
Chen Rui was secretly startled, it turned out that Augustus still had such a hidden danger, he hurriedly said: "My lord, actually..."
"I know what you want to persuade me," Augustus interrupted him: "but you don't understand the feelings of a father, Olypheus is my only blood, if I can't keep her, I will be considered successful What is the use of God?"
Shocked, Chen Rui was finally moved, and for the first time had real respect for Augustus.
"In case I am annihilated because of this, do your best to take good care of Olypheus for the rest of her life, promise me?" Augustus has completely let go of his tough stance and demigod figure, just like a father request for identity.
The immature figure who called "Dad" appeared in Chen Rui's mind, his eyes were a little red, and he blurted out: "Okay!"
Augustus nodded in relief, patted him on the shoulder, and turned around with a triumphant smile on his face: Hmph! Sure enough, he is an idiot, my lord has done a little trick, isn't it easy to catch
Chen Rui agreed impulsively, feeling something was wrong in his heart. Before he could think about it, Augustus had already handed over a space ring: "This is for you. The six-element country that Lola wants to practice is the most powerful country." , every time you successfully comprehend the power of an element, the power will increase exponentially, and the danger is the same. I know you are collecting the source power of the element, but the source power of the element is only possessed by the king of elements, and ordinary people get one. It is extremely difficult, let alone the gathering of the six elements. This ring contains the essence of national-level elemental dragon power, which can strengthen her national power, and can further reduce the risk of cultivation on the basis of possessing elemental source power."
If it's an ordinary treasure, it's fine, but it's related to Laura's practice and even life safety, so Chen Rui quickly took it. Augustus's color is even stronger - dealing with this kind of guy is to use soft methods, the so-called softness of others, and now it is even more impossible to refuse.
Chen Rui recalled that the essence of dragon power was also the material needed for the crystal monsters in the fortress of the ancient alchemy civilization, and asked, "My lord, I still need some essence of dragon power. I don't know if..."
"Is it an experiment with the undead dragon? That's a blasphemy against the dragon's body!" Augustus frowned, "For the sake of Olypheus, I won't pursue the undead dragon before." Yes, but I won't allow a second head! Do you understand?"
Chen Rui shook his head: "I assure you, it is definitely not used for undead experiments... This involves a secret of mine. In fact, I am the inheritor of the ancient alchemy civilization, and I need the essence of dragon power to repair the ruins fortress. If you are willing to provide it, I can use it." Equivalent rare treasures in exchange, such as devil fruit, fountain of life...even black potion."
These exchanged treasures surprised Augustus: "It turns out that you are the inheritor of the ancient alchemy civilization. No wonder you have such strength and talent. If you promise that you are not used for undead experiments, equivalent exchange is still feasible. It's just that I don't have any more dragon power essence in me, and I need to go back to Dragon Island to discuss with some elders."
"Okay." Chen Rui's eyes lit up. Unexpectedly, the most difficult problem of the ancient alchemy civilization has been solved. The alchemy fortress "Star City" should be repaired. He only needs to go to the sea of death to get the blue star heavy water and ghosts. Coral can create crystal behemoths and construction puppets, which is a powerful combat force.
"You and Olypheus... just make any engagement ceremony." Augustus rolled his eyes, and finally returned to the topic, "I can also let go of my worries and go back to Dragon Island to attack the closest one with all my strength. The realm of the gods."
Up to now, the other party has made a considerable degree of concession, and Chen Rui can no longer refuse: "Master Augustus, please do as you wish, but I have a request, can you accompany me to the place of death?" A trip to the sea?"
"Sea of Death?"
Chen Rui briefly talked about the Sea of Death. When it came to the Land of Hatred, Augusta's eyes shot brightly: "Dark Dragon Emperor? Rodriguez?"
Chen Rui saw the strange behavior of Augustus: "Your Excellency, do you know Rodriguez?"
Augustus showed hatred: "The strong enemy I met back then was Rodriguez! Rodriguez was the strongest holy dragon in the ground world. He came to the Demon Realm for some reason and killed several dragons. The black dragon took away their treasures. At that time, the Dragon King was my father Crusier, and I was only the first heir of the Dragon King. When I was investigating this incident, I met Rodriguez. His strength To be far better than me, my soul was severely damaged by him. Fortunately, my father arrived in time and fought with Rodriguez for three days and three nights. Finally, he used the Dragon God's Eye to destroy his body and country, but the soul But I escaped. My father also paid the price of being seriously injured, but after my father and I returned to Long Island, we encountered another huge change!"
Although Crusier killed Rodriguez back then, he was also fatally injured and planned to pass the throne to Augustus. However, the second heir, Augustus' younger brother Ucarius, responded Holding a grudge, he actually killed his father and blamed it on Augustus. After being persecuted and hunted down, Augustus tried his best to cover his pregnant wife Lena and was imprisoned by Ucarius. Augustus tried his best to escape with the Dragon God's Eye inherited from his father, hid in a secret place and practiced hard, and finally returned to Dragon Island, defeated Ucarius and regained the throne with great strength, but unfortunately The lost wife Lianna and the child could not be found either.
Chen Rui suddenly realized that Rodriguez had mentioned that after being severely injured by Raphael, he came to the Demon Realm, and encountered a powerful enemy that destroyed his body and country. It turned out to be Augustus' father!
For the sake of the throne, father and son brothers kill each other. This is actually a very old-fashioned way of breaking the bridge, but this kind of routine has been common since ancient times, even in the dragon clan.
Ucarius? The name seemed familiar, and Chen Rui was taken aback, but his attention was soon attracted by another question: "Master Augustus, the matter of Rodriguez should have been tens of thousands of years... well, even longer Well, I want to ask about that... Olypheus, how old is it?"
"Hmph! Don't you know that the dragons can go from conception to egg laying to hatching, as short as a few decades, as long as a thousand years, or ten thousand years?" Augustus gave him a sideways look, "Olypheus is now the little girl's daughter." Age, no matter how much younger than Laura!"
Chen Rui was dumbfounded for a while, and wisely did not ask further on this question in detail: "Then, Lord Augustus, when shall we leave for the Sea of Death?"
"Rodriguez is my enemy, I will definitely not let him go, besides, he has lost his country and body now, even if he regains some strength, he is not my opponent." Augustus glanced at Chen Rui, coldly He snorted, "Don't miss the point! Get engaged to Oliver first!"
This old father-in-law is not a fuel-efficient lamp, Chen Rui smiled wryly, and now, he has no more choices, besides, after the matter of Oliver is settled, Isabella can also use Xueda Laihua to treat her with peace of mind Cursed.
Engagement with Olypheus is actually very simple, just give Olypheus a ring in front of everyone. For the black dragon chick, the more things that don't cost money, the better, and she looks very happy.
When Orpheus asked solemnly, "Can I eat for engagement", Chen Rui suddenly felt guilty of deceiving an ignorant girl.
However, when Lord Dragon Emperor told his daughter "you can eat" in a serious manner, Chen Rui suddenly felt that he was the one who was cheated.
What made Chen Rui feel a lot of pressure was the eyes of Athena, Laura, and Ji Ya. It seemed...he didn't hold any engagement ceremony with them; and it seemed...women are the ones who like to compare.
In comparison, Isabella seemed more understanding and kept helping him. However, during the short time spent alone after the ceremony, the aunt immediately bared her fangs to someone.
"After returning from this trip to the Sea of Death, I must be the first woman you touch, otherwise I will marry Augustus and let you call me 'Mom' after Olypheus!"
Too poisonous! What a mandala! Chen Rui burst into tears immediately.
