The talks between the three emperors have come to a successful conclusion, and the major decisions made during this meeting are destined to be recorded in history.
The three empires of fallen angels, shadows, and blood demons issued a joint statement that they would stop all sanctions and wars, plan to establish a joint alliance, and the demon world will usher in a new era of peace.
Of course, things like the son-in-law clause were not disclosed to the public, nor was a specific date for the founding of the Confederacy fixed, and the parties involved knew why.
The announcement of this joint statement caused cheers from the entire devil world. The three major empires have all experienced the suffering of wars. For the people, almost no one wants to live the life of being ruined and displaced. And for those guys with excess energy and combativeness, there are also big stages—battle ball competitions, fighting games, magic game practice, and the future legion martial arts battles, college exchange games, and magic game competitions mentioned in the Three Kingdoms Joint Statement Competitions, etc., can give them ample opportunities to show their abilities.
The martial arts contest ended successfully, and the talks between the three countries reached an important consensus. It is almost time to leave the Iron Fist territory.
After setting a return date within three days, Chen Rui received a special invitation from Lei Chan, asking him to go to the Artisan Association in the Iron Fist Territory to give a lecture to the artisans who came to watch the competition.
Naturally, Chen Rui couldn't refuse, but to his surprise, a heavyweight visitor came to the VIP post where he was staying just before he left.
Her Majesty the Empress of the Shadow Empire.
The child's mother.
After the final that has been talked about so far by the devil world, although Catherine had communicated with Xi Ya at the three-nation talks and reached a considerable tacit understanding, it was the first time to formally meet with the harem group, but she did not expect A certain coordinator is not there, which is tantamount to directly facing the "sisters" (rivals?).
Catherine's arrival was reasonable, but the harem group seemed to be in a hurry, not because Chen Rui was not there, but because they happened to be playing a game with Miss Dodo, and many people had painted on their faces. weird stuff.
This VIP post house is not accessible to ordinary people, but the person sitting and drinking at the gate happens to be a dead duck dragon. Seeing the arrival of Her Majesty the Queen who had defeated him (that is, the old friend who was exposed by the damned human being), he rolled his eyes and greeted him enthusiastically. Lin directly entered, and when Her Majesty the Shadow Queen entered the hall, the girls who were caught off guard didn't even have time to "remove their makeup".
When Catherine came to the hall, she took off her veil deliberately, not because she wanted to show off, but to show her honesty and avoid causing unnecessary grievances among the girls by wearing a veil.
In order to prepare for this moment of meeting, Her Majesty the First Wise Empress had also thought about various rhetoric or possible situations in advance, but when she saw the righteous masters, she was almost taken aback.
Athena is dressed in a barrel-like outfit with metallic paint on her face; Isabella is dressed as a witch with an exaggerated hooked nose; Shia wears a weird big robe without a crown on her head , but a hood that looks like a bald head, with a beard still stuck to his face; Lola's face was rubbed with grass ash, and his body was covered with straw;
Even the little loli Alice, with her big paws, still holds a lion mask that she just took off...
The only normal one was Miss Dodo, who was wearing a cute skirt, carrying a small basket, and wearing a pair of crystal slippers, and beside her was a barking puppy.
Catherine could tell at a glance that the power aura on the puppy was actually at the national level, and she couldn't help being secretly surprised. The girls were also stunned there—the number one beauty lived up to her reputation, with her charming face and elegant and wise temperament, even the harem group who were already peerless in the world would inevitably be jealous and envious, and my side was in this abnormal state , I couldn't help being embarrassed for a while.
Miss Dodo has already swooped over happily: "Mom! Mom!"
"Dodo! You're being naughty again!" Catherine cast a reproachful glance at the daughter in her arms, and patted her little butt lightly.
"No! It's the aunts who are playing an interesting game with me! This game is called..." Xiao Duoduo sucked her finger in her mouth, as if she hadn't remembered it all at once.
The puppy smiled flatteringly, and actually said something: "Master Dodo, no, Master Dorothy, this script is called "The Wizard of Oz". I am your puppy Toto."
Catherine recognized the puppy's voice, it was Diudiu who was defeated by the red pipilot. Seeing the grotesque appearance of the girls including Ice Queen Xia, she suddenly couldn't utter a lot of words that she had prepared before, and her heart burst out I wanted to say more, but in the end I just bowed deeply to the "rivals in love".
"Thanks."
Although there were only two words, they were sincere and full of sincere thanks. Xi Ya and the other girls could hear them, and hurriedly returned the gift.
"Mom, Aunt Athena is the Tin Woodman, Aunt Laura is the Scarecrow, Aunt Isabella is..." Dodo nodded one by one, "and Sister Alice is a lion who likes 'oooo'."
"I said it, it's not my sister, it's my aunt!" Alice corrected immediately, the little Lolita has her own thoughts, and she doesn't want to be inferior to her sister and Athena.
Dodo walked over curiously, stood on tiptoe, stretched out her hand, compared the height of Alice, and Athena and Isabella beside her, and confirmed with a serious face: "It's my sister! "
"..." The lion loli, who was poked into tears, let out a loud roar, tears streaming down her face.
Fortunately, Dodo is not looking at breasts.
Xi Ya frowned: "Alice, don't be rude in front of Her Majesty Catherine!"
"It's okay." Catherine smiled slightly, "So...do you still need people?"
On the other hand, the craftsmen of the Craftsman Association were very enthusiastic. It was not until the evening that Chen Rui returned to the post house and was surprised when he heard the news of Catherine's arrival.
The empress's title as the number one wise man is not forged. Even Isabella is willing to bow down. In some respects, she can even single out the entire harem group. The most terrible thing is that he happens to visit when he is not around. No, there has been a war of words and even a world war.
When Chen Rui rushed to the hall in a hurry, he saw a harmonious scene that surprised him: Catherine was talking and laughing happily with all the girls, and everyone's attitude seemed to be very casual, not as expected.
Little Duoduo was curled up in Isabella's arms, sleeping very soundly. With the energy of little Miss Phoenix, she fell asleep so early, she must be exhausted from playing.
Seeing Chen Rui coming in, all the girls got up one after another, and Alice hurriedly greeted her happily: "Brother is back!"
Chen Rui patted Little Lolita's head, looked at the girls, and said to Catherine, "You're here."
Catherine smiled and nodded.
"Hmph! This tone is as if he is the supreme master, a fickle, shameless, and bad man." Needless to say, it must be the little mermaid princess who mutters in a low voice with the skill of poisonous tongue.
The black dragon girl came up to announce the good news: "Boss! Sister Catherine treated us to a free meal today!"
For chicks, free is naturally the biggest attraction.
Chen Rui was taken aback: "Have you all eaten?"
"Why, Your Royal Highness, the father of your fiancée...that is, the father-in-law you often say, didn't you stay for dinner?" Hearing Miss Yi Ni's surprised voice, Chen Rui was speechless for a while, and you still held her in your arms. What about your daughter, can't you stop for a while
"His Royal Highness... I'm sorry, I didn't pack it for you." The little maid Yao Mozi made up the knife with a look of resentment.
"Boss, it doesn't matter. I specially reserved supper for you. I will give you 10,000 black crystal coins for a 10% discount..." the black dragon chick took out half a steamed bun that she couldn't hold it without changing her face.
"..."
Catherine looked at Chen Rui, who was in a state of desperation, and smiled without saying a word.
Xi Ya said: "Okay, I have been busy all day today, everyone is exhausted, we are going to rest, Chen Rui, you go see Catherine off."
All the girls nodded at the same time, and Chen Rui heard a sign. Xi Ya didn't add the word "Your Majesty" to Catherine, and she seemed to be relatively close. Does this indicate any good omen
Before he could figure it out, he was kicked out of the door inexplicably, accompanied by Catherine and the sleeping Miss Dodo.
Instead of taking the magic carriage, the two chose to walk. In order not to attract attention, Catherine put on a veil, while Chen Rui changed another face.
Under the moonlight, the shadows of the two were getting closer and closer. Catherine held Chen Rui's arm. It was the first time that Chen Rui had such an intimate movement with her in public, and felt the warmth from the contact point. , I suddenly felt a strange feeling in my heart, very warm.
"Your heartbeat seems to be a little faster, Your Royal Highness."
"Now is not the time to waste mental energy studying this kind of data." Chen Rui shrugged while hugging the sleeping Miss Dodo, "You seem a little nervous, Your Majesty, is this the first time you walk with a man like this?"
"You should be honored."
"I think it's more appropriate to use the word 'warm'. This is my true feeling."
"Is it?"
"certainly."
"I never thought I would have such a day. We took many detours, but fortunately, we finally reached the place we wanted to go the most." Catherine's head gradually approached, gently leaning against his On the shoulders, the shadows on the ground overlapped into one.
He was right, "warmth", that's what it feels like.
Chen Rui kissed her hair gently, and sniffed the familiar fragrance comfortably: "There is still a long way ahead, let's go together."
"kindness… "
Catherine raised her head, lifted the veil, and kissed his cheek.
This movement is so natural, as if a lover or husband and wife for many years.
It is also a warm feeling, Chen Rui's heart is warm, and he only hopes that this road can go on forever.
At this moment, the two had reached a remote place. Catherine stopped and took out something wrapped in layers of cloth from behind: "By the way, this is for you."
Chen Rui knew that she took this thing out of the magic carriage at the gate of the post house before she decided to walk, but she kept it behind her back, not knowing what it was.
Catherine took Xiaoduo, Chen Rui opened the package and saw that it turned out to be a metal object like a piece of armor. With his current vision of a master craftsman, he quickly saw the key point, and pressed one of them. parts, the pieces of the armor quickly overlapped and changed, turning into a pair of armor.
The whole body of this armor is jet black, exuding a special wave, giving people an indestructible feeling. Chen Rui's heart moved, and he tried to put the armor into the storage space, but he couldn't succeed. He was slightly shocked: "Armor king armor?"
Catherine nodded with a smile. Chen Rui's shock was no small matter. It was really one of the seven artifacts, the Angry King Armor of the Samael royal family!
Back then, Gustav (Bridget) fought desperately and was defeated by Lei Chan. Lei Chan didn't take away the Nu Wang Kai, but then both the Nu Wang Kai and Bridget's corpses disappeared. Going to pick up a cheap black dragon chick was all in vain. Unexpectedly, it fell into the hands of Catherine.
Chen Rui suddenly thought of something, and tried to ask: "Is Bridget..."
Catherine nodded and said the answer: "Yes, he is still alive, thanks to the resurrection potion you gave me when you were in the small plain."
Chen Rui once entered the palace to give Catherine the resurrection potion after the Shadow Empire Armorer Competition, but during the Battle of Crystal Valley, Catherine thought he was dead, so she spilled the potion on the ground in vain. Later, Chen Rui gave another bottle to Catherine when he was in the small plain of the Fortress of Jergal. He wanted to help her survive the disaster of Nirvana, but finally relied on Dodo's strength to save the day.
Bridget fought Lei Chan and died after burning out his blood and life, but his body was not damaged and his soul was not completely dissipated. He was successfully revived by Catherine with the resurrection potion.
"Only Bridget's side..."
"Not only did I save him, but I also promised to give the Semel royal family a place and valuable space for survival and development in the alliance kingdom in the future. Therefore, he promised to lend me the King of Fury Armor indefinitely." Catherine's eyes flashed A trace of shrewd wisdom: "Actually, this is the condition that we have already negotiated with Lei Chan during the meeting. In sum, I blackmailed the Samael royal family once. However, Lei Chan made demands on you with such a gesture, even at the expense of his daughter Inherit the throne and marry you... That Tiffany's troubles, he should not be able to solve them himself, and you may be in danger. I know you have the ability to cast the seven artifacts, just like the God-eating mask, the wrath king armor It is the strongest armor among the Seven Artifacts except for the Phantom Shield. With it, at least your chances of success will be a little higher. If you need it, I can also lend you the Shadow Cloak."
Only then did Chen Rui know Catherine's intention to anger Wang Kai, and was moved for a while, and hugged her gently.
"Katherine, I..."
"Do you want to go back tonight?" Catherine clearly guessed his thoughts, a blush flashed across her face behind the veil, "Aren't you afraid of being dismembered by the ladies the next day?"
"..."
"Okay, there's no need to look tragic and heroic about rushing to the execution ground... In fact, just now they asked you to send me and Dodo back, and they have already acquiesced in your crooked idea."
Chen Rui's eyes lit up: "Really?"
"My guess."
"..."
