Catherine's own expression was also a little surprised. Although Nirvana can greatly improve a person's strength, the biggest effect is to induce a qualitative change in the body and soul, so that the fixed foundation can be greatly improved, and the bottleneck can be broken through more conveniently. Unexpectedly, This time, he was directly promoted to the national level.
This time, Nirvana was originally launched with the awareness of death, but the fifth Nirvana, which caused the downfall of countless Asmodeus royal geniuses, was unexpectedly smooth. Of course, this "smoothness" actually happened after Chen Rui triggered his own fire of nirvana to merge into her body regardless of life and death. Although the specific reason is unknown, what is certain is that without this man, she would Like countless ancestors, they were wiped out in the "bath of fire".
"Congratulations."
Seeing Chen Rui's smile, Her Majesty the Empress thought of the lingering lingering between the two of them not long ago, her cheeks blushed involuntarily, she turned her gaze to the magic house behind, waved her hand, and put it away in the air.
"Er..." The voices of the two rang out at the same time.
"You go first." They said in unison again.
Now the two of them didn't make a sound, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward for a while, without the indulgence and intimacy when they met naked before.
"Let me talk first," Catherine took the lead to break the deadlock, looking into Chen Rui's eyes, "There is no need to beat around the bush, I just ask, will you go back with me?"
This sentence seemed easy to answer, but Chen Rui understood what she meant, it was a multiple-choice question.
A common multiple choice question.
If it was before, Chen Rui could give her the answer without too much hesitation, but after experiencing this incident, he could no longer be decisive, and fell into extreme contradiction for a while.
"I know this will make it difficult for you to choose, but I have no choice." Catherine sighed, "The others are not a problem, but you can only choose one, me and her."
The relationship between the empire and the empire is a naked interest relationship. As the supreme ruler and the representative of national interests, whether it is Xia or Catherine, the relationship with the other party can only be an enemy, and it is impossible to be a true friend. As long as the time If conditions permit, the two will fight each other mercilessly.
Seeing Chen Rui bowing his head in silence, Catherine lowered her gaze: "This time Nirvana has promoted me to the national level. As long as I completely control the undead puppet, even Lei Chan can't do anything to me. Shadow Empire The strength should surpass the Fallen Angel Empire. I can give you what she can give you, and I can give you what she can’t give you. Such interests and conditions may make you disgusted, but what I said is the truth. Besides, between you and me... it's not an interest, let alone a transaction."
"I understand." Chen Rui raised his head, "But, I can't go with you, I have to go to Warlock Fortress, because Xiya is facing the six million elites of the Blood Fiend Empire there, and the situation is quite dangerous. If it is You, I will go without hesitation."
"This answer is nothing more than evasion or self-deception." Catherine shook her head and gave him a deep look. "What if I am the one who leads the six million elites? Even if this time I am out of the interests of the empire and She joins forces, so what about next time? You know very well that she and I... are not just ourselves, we will meet on the battlefield sooner or later, and sooner or later we will fight to the death!"
Chen Rui was silent for a while, and said with a wry smile: "Maybe I should regret it now. I regret that the first time I appeared in the Shadow Empire was not in the Shadow Empire but in the Dark Moon Territory. I regret that I didn't go to the Shadow Empire to find you after the time in Youye Wetland. I regret that the Crystal Valley dress Die and run away... If, at the time, I had been more decisive, or there hadn't been so much 'before', we would both be happy now. I don't want to lie to you, I'm really feeling more blessed than ever, because what I have...is my life In the greatest sense, you... are also one of them."
"It turns out that we have missed so many times." Catherine's eyes showed a touch of sadness, "It's a pity that if you miss it, you miss it. As for the others, I can't pursue and possess them. Because even if I can let everyone choose , but still can't let myself choose... I think, I already know your choice."
"Katherine, I..."
"You don't need to say, this is the last time I will choose for you." As soon as Catherine finished speaking, she had already appeared in front of him in an instant, and stretched out her hand. Chen Rui's eyelids twitched slightly, but did not move.
Catherine's hand gently stroked Chen Rui's face, as if she was touching the most precious thing, her star-like eyes were quickly covered with a layer of mist, and finally she couldn't hold back, a drop of crystal tears flowed slowly from her face. slide.
Chen Rui's heart trembled, and he wanted to hold her hand, but it was in vain. That warm hand turned into an unattainable phantom.
Almost like a shadow, Catherine's figure has receded into the distance.
"forget me."
After saying this sentence, a veil was added to her face, and in the blink of an eye, that figure turned into a stream of light and shot into the air like a shooting star that didn't return.
There is no threat, detention or murder, just these simple three words.
Because here, she sees herself more as Christina, as Isis, as the woman who loves him, rather than the ruler of the empire, Catherine the Great.
Between you and me... It's not an interest, let alone a transaction.
"Don't forget me."
"forget me."
Chen Rui's eyes were already red, he clenched his fists and shouted: "Catherine!"
This call made Liu Guang go faster, and the wet marks on the veil became bigger and bigger, even if it flew rapidly, it couldn't be dried.
"Two years!"
The man's exhausted shout came faintly from behind, Catherine still didn't turn her head, and let the tears pour out, because after leaving this place, all her tears and emotions will be closed.
Because she is Catherine. Asmodeus, Lord of Shadows.
The knuckles of Chen Rui's clenched fist have turned white—power! He needs stronger power! Not only personal hard power, but also soft power that needs to influence and control the entire devil world!
"Catherine, wait for me." A flash of blue light gate appeared in the void, Chen Rui looked back at the direction where the stream of light disappeared, and whispered, the whole person disappeared in the light gate.
Time passed day by day.
Although the death of the great prince Aleus had a considerable impact on the morale of the Blood Fiend army, under the leadership of Gustav and Tevez, they quickly regained their morale and continued to launch a fierce attack on the Warlock Fortress.
In the extremely fierce offensive and defensive battle, the two sides almost exhausted all means. The Warlock Fortress was shattered several times, but it still stood tall.
Tevez's patience was much better than that of Achilles', and his methods were also more sophisticated. He made full use of his advantages in numbers and combat strength, and forced Warlock Fortress to fight a war of attrition.
After several rounds of attack and defense, Warlock Fortress consumed a lot of military power and supplies, and even fell into extremely dangerous situations several times. However, there was still no response from Agulie's "envoy" to the Shadow Empire, and the military spirit of the Fallen Angel Empire inevitably began to shake. Many generals, including many generals, pinned their hopes on the "secret weapon" that Shia called.
If it is allowed to develop like this, then the Warlock Fortress may not be able to withstand the next round of the enemy's attack. Now the army of the Fallen Angel Empire relies on the advantage of the location to maintain a stalemate with the Blood Fiend army. In the next duel, the army of the Fallen Angel Empire is by no means an opponent of the bloody elite.
Once the Warlock Fortress is lost and Bai Ling's territory is captured, the Imperial Capital of the Fallen Angels will be opened wide, and the Blood Fiend army will drive straight in and sweep the entire empire.
Under such circumstances, Shia finally couldn't keep silent, and gritted her teeth and used a trump card.
This killer mace is called Poison Thunderbolt, and the launching device is a relatively ordinary catapult, but the ammunition is not a boulder coated with magic fuel, but a special round stone bullet.
After this kind of stone bomb hits the ground, it will explode like an ordinary bolide, but what explodes is not a stone, but a spreading poisonous gas.
The toxin contained in this poisonous gas is not simple. Ardas was developed by referring to Pagliu's toxin. It is a hundred times more powerful than the toxin contained in the explosive arrow fired by the ballista. Once the terrible poisonous gas spreads , Soldiers within the range will suffer corrosive damage, and ordinary antidotes cannot treat the symptoms at all.
Just like the magic crystal cannons, weapons and armors and other killing tools manufactured by Organism, pharmacy has finally become the leader in harvesting life on the battlefield. This is not only the helplessness of science, but also the helplessness of human nature.
As soon as this kind of poisonous thunderbolt was cast, Xue Fiend's siege army suffered huge losses. In the next three days, no attack was launched.
On the fourth day, Tetris finally made a move, which was also a trump card.
The Blood Fiend army dispatched the Air Legion, apart from the two main armies, the Wind Dragon Legion and the Blood Lion Legion, strange things appeared in the sky.
If Chen Rui was here, he would definitely exclaim: Airship!
That's right, it is the airship, the power system is magic crystal, and its appearance is similar to that used by the dark elemental king of the sea of death.
There were hundreds of airships, and as soon as they appeared, they immediately showed terrifying combat power. The aggressiveness of the airships was not skydiving, but throwing. One after another, magic bombs fell on the Warlock Fortress, causing the dilapidated fortress to be destroyed. The explosion was riddled with holes, and nearby soldiers were either killed or injured.
Arrows or catapults can't hit those high above enemies at all, even poisonous thunderbolts are no exception. Because the two blood fiend air corps protecting the airship are very powerful, the air force of the fallen angels can't break through to destroy the airship at all. The soldiers of Warlock Fortress can only be beaten passively, with heavy casualties. The immobile poison thunderbolt and catapult were destroyed. Mostly.
Pagliu below couldn't hold back, turned into a dragon and flew into the sky, rushing towards the airship group. This is not the first time that the poisonous dragon has appeared. The blood fiend has been prepared for a long time. Dozens of figures flew out and surrounded the poisonous dragon.
Since Pagliu received the guidance of Augustus, his strength has taken a big leap forward, coupled with the stimulation of Diu Diu, he finally reached the level of S++, only one step away from nationalization. However, Dulong's eyes looked very solemn, because these people's strengths were all devil emperors, and at least ten of them were peak devil emperors!
At the same time, a large number of infantry and siege equipment began to appear in the sight of the city wall defenders. It seems that this time Terry not only dispatched the secret weapon airship, but also used all his strength to defeat the fallen angels in one fell swoop. defense force.
Xia and the others in the fortress below also noticed that something was wrong, and one by one figures rose into the sky and flew into the sky.
The most intense battle is about to begin, and this battle will be related to the survival of Warlock Fortress.
