This person in front of the forest is the same as Delia. He's also from the Envy Royal Family! And his strength is above Delia!
Could it be …
"What did I find?" A cold male voice sounded. "A lowly reptile?"
The cold tone seemed to be more chilling than the cold morning wind in the wetland.
Chen Rui knew that his whereabouts had been seen through by the other party, so he had to walk out from behind the tree. In the morning mist, a tall man stood. This man had long blue hair, and his handsome facial features were faintly visible. He was wearing a silver half-body armor, and the cloak behind him was fluttering in the wind.
The man did not deliberately release his power, but Chen Rui instinctively felt a terrifying aura. When he was glanced at by the man's cold and gloomy eyes, even with his extraordinary willpower, he actually felt a chill, like a frog being stared at by a poisonous snake.
This kind of familiar power … is the Eye of Incubus!
This man's Eye of Incubus didn't need to be specially used. It was as if he was born with it. Just one look and it could produce a strong deterrent force. They both had the Eye of Incubus, but the difference between Delia and this man was almost indescribable.
"So it's still a restrained reptile." The blue-haired man did not hide his disdainful attitude. "Even if it's free, a reptile is still a reptile after all. Speak! Where's Christina? "
Chen Rui just found out that the noble lady's name was Christina. He barely resisted the pressure of the Eye of Incubus and raised the shackles on his hands. "How would I know in my current state?"
The man saw that the ant in his eyes actually dared to speak with such a casual attitude and snorted. Chen Rui only felt as if his heart was hammered by someone. His breathing seemed to have stopped at that moment.
This kind of sudden attack was completely different from Delia's spirit prying. The Super System couldn't convert it, and Chen Rui couldn't use Star Power now. This cold snort had already seriously injured him. This was still caused by the passive characteristic of [Damage Absorption] which absorbed part of the attack. Otherwise, this sound would have killed him on the spot.
Chen Rui's face flushed red, and he finally couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood. A chill rose in his heart. This man was actually so powerful and so cruel. With just one sentence, he took someone's life!
Seeing that this powerless ant had not died, the man was slightly surprised, and a faint light appeared in his eyes. Chen Rui saw the fog around him quickly change, turning into a group of armored soldiers holding sharp blades and rushing towards him.
Chen Rui had an intuition that the soldiers condensed by the mist were definitely not an illusion, but they truly had powerful lethality!
At the critical moment, his vision suddenly became blurry. The fog soldiers became thinner as they rushed closer. Before they reached Chen Rui, they had already turned into a faint mist and dissipated.
"I didn't expect that the leader of the three demon generals of the empire, Broc Leviathan, would actually kill a imprisoned weakling for no reason."
The voice of the noblewoman came from behind Chen Rui. As soon as she finished speaking, she had already appeared in front of him.
Hearing the man's name, Chen Rui finally confirmed the guess in his heart: Broc is Delia's brother, the leader of the three demon generals of the Shadow Empire. Back then, he had threatened Delia to marry the finance minister.
He didn't expect Broc's strength to be so much stronger than Delia, who was at Demon King level. Chen Rui had a vague feeling that Broc's true strength was likely to have surpassed Great Demon King level. Christina was the same.
Although he had trained from a weak human to his current strength that could rival the peak of Higher Demon King, compared to these powerhouses, just like what Christina said, he was only a "weakling". There should be stronger powerhouses above Broc and Christina. Even a Demon Overlord was not the peak of strength.
Chen Rui's previous complacency instantly disappeared without a trace. It turned into a firm belief – become stronger!
"Miss, you must be the most mysterious noblewoman in the empire's royal family, Christina." Broc gracefully performed a noble's etiquette. Compared to the ruthlessness and coldness just now, it was as if he was a different person. "It's my honor to meet you, miss."
Christina returned the etiquette. Her tone was still calm. "General Broc, don't you know that it's very rude to follow a lady?"
"It is indeed a little rude." Bai Luo smiled slightly. "However, as an admirer, this kind of stubborn action of pursuing is also considered pardonable. I came here personally to invite you to my mansion as a guest. I wonder if you'll do me the honor? "
"Unfortunately, I already have a male partner." Christina glanced at Chen Rui. "I'll have to disappoint the general's hospitality."
"It's hard to believe that the miss would choose such a useless man as her male partner." Broc looked at Chen Rui in disdain. "Moreover, who would seal their male partner with shackles?"
"Don't underestimate a woman's jealousy. She's just afraid that he'll run away and find another woman." Christina said calmly, "If the general has nothing else, please don't interfere with our private interests."
Private interests? Shackles? Binding? Chen Rui was stunned by Christina's bold words.
"Miss, you're indeed extraordinary." Broc frowned slightly. "That's all for private matters. As the general of the empire, I think it's necessary for me to ask the miss about official matters. The men I sent to protect my sister were killed by the miss, right? "
"It turns out that those who stopped me from completing Her Majesty Catherine's mission were the general's subordinates. My trip this time was specially approved by the Queen. Could it be that your subordinates disobeyed Her Majesty Her Majesty's order? It wasn't their personal behavior, but it was the general's intention? "
"Her Majesty's order is for you to come to this place with a man to do something shameful?" Broc sneered. His words became harsh.
"There's nothing shameful about that. The Desire Family is much freer than the other Royal Families when it comes to relationships," Christina said openly, but her next sentence was tit-for-tat. "I've heard that General Broc, for some reason, actually hunted down his own sister and forced her to marry the old finance minister?"
"This is my family matter! I don't need an outsider to ask! "Broc's face gradually turned gloomy." Miss killed my subordinates. You must give me an explanation. "
"I'm on a trip this time under Her Majesty's warrant. Do you want to disobey Her Majesty's order?"
"Where's the warrant?"
"I've given the warrant to Delia to handle Town Leia's affairs. However, here's the royal ring that was personally given by Her Majesty. You can act according to the circumstances. "Christina raised the ring on her right middle finger.
"I'm a soldier. I've never heard of any royal ring. I'll only obey the warrant signed by Her Majesty!" Broc's voice suddenly became stern. The surrounding mist began to gather quickly. "Then, I can only use forceful means to bring miss back to the capital city and clarify things in front of Her Majesty Catherine."
As soon as he finished speaking, an army of thousands of people suddenly appeared in the mist and attacked Christina. Christina's hands quickly drew circles and substantial ripples appeared in the air. The army was shaken by the ripples and instantly returned to the original mist.
"Elemental weakening?" Broc's mist army was broken, but he wasn't moved at all. He praised, "Miss's talent is really high. You can actually awaken the Asmodeus Royal Family's bloodline talent to such an extent! Unfortunately, miss's power is still a little weak. Although you're very close to the level of a Demon Emperor and your subtle control of power is amazing. Unfortunately, I've completely mastered the power of a Demon Emperor. You'll soon experience the absolute difference between the two. "
She really is a Demon Emperor! Chen Rui was shocked. He was not only surprised by Broc's power, but also Christina's. This was because only he knew that after Christina consumed the seven aura fruits, her power had dropped by a level. Then, Christina's original level …
No matter what, Christina was currently in a weak state. It was quite dangerous to go against Broc at his peak.
A four-meter-tall square metal body suddenly appeared in the air and smashed toward Broc's head. Broc's figure flashed and appeared behind him. Half of the metal body sank into the ground and the ground of the entire red forest shook. It was obvious how powerful it was. Chen Rui was already grabbed by Christina and jumped to a safe area.
The metal body seemed to be alive. It was pulled out of the ground and quickly disintegrated into a five-meter-tall human figure in the air. Other than the eyes, there were no other organs on its face. Its body was carved with various strange symbols that emitted a faint green light. Before the metal man landed on the ground, it flew toward Broc in the air. Its movements did not make people feel clumsy because of its huge body. Instead, it was extremely fast.
Chen Rui was dumbfounded. Gundam? No! Transformers? That's not right either! The Demon Realm actually has such a thing!
"War Puppet? As expected of Christina. Even the strongest talent of the Asmodeus Royal Family has been awakened! "
The War Puppet was like a warrior with life, launching a powerful attack on Broc. The ground trembled slightly continuously, and the trees along the way were uprooted as if they were withered and rotten wood, dancing in the air. The ground was full of huge holes that had been destroyed. Even from afar, the impact of the strong airwaves could be felt. It was Chen Rui's first time witnessing a battle of this level. He felt dizzy. If it was his current power, he would probably be killed by the War Puppet in a second.
Although the War Puppet's power was shocking, Broc kept dodging calmly. He was not injured at all. After dodging for a while, Broc seemed to be a little impatient. He did not dodge anymore. He opened up his right hand and welcomed the attack. When the huge War Puppet was about ten meters away from Broc, it seemed to have encountered an invisible barrier. Its rapid movements suddenly started to slow down.
Broc's body shook slightly. Its blue eyes turned black. The War Puppet's speed was getting slower. When it was about three meters away from Broc, it could no longer move forward. The metal body started to tremble slightly. It seemed to be under a huge pressure.
Broc let out a cold humph. He suddenly appeared above the War Puppet. His body fell straight down and both his feet landed on the War Puppet. With a crack, a huge hole with a diameter of tens of meters appeared. Half of the War Puppet's body was stuck in the middle of the hole. It could not move for a while. The War Puppet did not feel pain. It still tried to pull its body out and continue attacking.
Broc's fists moved continuously. He could only see a blur in the air. He did not know exactly how many rounds he had punched. He could only hear the extremely dense high-speed punching sound. The depth of the hole in the middle was increasing rapidly.
When Broc stopped, the five-meter tall War Puppet had already become a pile of twisted metal. There were scattered pieces around it. The human shape from before could not be seen at all.
Broc suddenly frowned. He jumped out of the hole and saw that Christina and Chen Rui had already disappeared.
