After the training at the surfy sea, Chen Rui clearly felt the improvement in his strength. Not only the kind of surging power that appeared with a certain probability, but also the power of < Aura Blade >. < Aura Blade >'s power was more concentrated and "sharper" than before. It was like a sharpened artifact. Under the full blow just now, even Athena's greatsword couldn't break the Sturdy Demon Body, but it was "broken" just like that.
Of course, it was undeniable that what Chen Rui killed wasn't Culia in a "full health state".
Culia first fought fiercely with Athena, then he was seriously injured by Lomont, and he was tricked by the disguised "Robin" to drink the "Lacerating Potion". His strength was greatly reduced. If he was in his peak state, Chen Rui's < Aura Blade > might not be able to exert such an effect.
However, the battle was like this. Winner takes all. Although the stronger the strength, the greater the chance of winning, the one who survived to the end was the real winner.
Culia had a storage bracelet with more than 20,000 black crystal coins and some other things, but for Chen Rui, these were just extra income. The biggest gain was killing Culia, and at the same time, he also got two extremely valuable intel:
First, it was confirmed that the Red Devils that interfered with the western part of the Dark Moon Estate were assigned by the Red Spirit Lord. For the so-called balance, the backbone of the bandits was composed of members from both Kanita and Joseph's forces. Culia and the leader, Snowden, were on Kanita's side; Barnacle was on Joseph's side; Sully and Yagus who were killed should also be on their side. Both sides fought openly and secretly, and neither gave way to each other.
Second, the Red Devils had a magic communication tower that contacted Town Leia and Dark Moon City. It was located in the cave area of Mountain Tuolan. This communication tower must be destroyed to cut off the connection between the Mountain Xilang Red Devils and the outside world.
The value of these two intel was not as simple as it seemed. Chen Rui pondered for a long time, and a bold new plan gradually formed in his mind. Looking at Culia's corpse on the ground, he moved his mind and kept it into the storage warehouse of the Super System.
The storage unit's "shelf life" seemed to be very long, and Culia's body should be very useful when the time came.
After a while, the figure of 'Culia' appeared in front of two fleeing bandits. The two bandits were still in a state of shock after escaping from the ghost dragon's claws. As soon as they saw 'Culia', they hurriedly saluted: "Sir!"
"What are you panicking for? Two useless fellows! " Culia was panting heavily, looking as if he hadn't fully recovered from his injuries. He scolded, "You two, quickly find our lost brothers and gather them here!"
The two quickly responded and left. After a while, the members of the Red Devils gathered one after another. Culia looked at these dusty guys and secretly laughed that the spirit dragon that Dodo disguised as was really intimidating, but his face was extremely serious. He said, "You have all seen it. Now that the terrifying spirit dragon has come out of the main pit. Everyone, don't go back for a while. Just camp in the nearby Mount Walan. I'm now going to Town Leia to contact our leader and report these emergencies. Remember one thing. Before I return, don't provoke the miners no matter what. If I find that someone disobeys the order, I will definitely kill him when I return! "
The bandits hurriedly responded. In fact, Sir Culia's order was reasonable. The terrifying spirit dragon had already come down from the main pit. Staying in Mountain Xilang was courting death. As for the mining office, there were powerhouses like Lennon and Athena. Even Culia returned with serious injuries today. Who dared to provoke them?
This Culia was naturally Chen Rui in disguise. After "settling down" the bandits, he returned to Mountain Xilang to meet Dodo and Mengda. With the help of the magic map, they flew toward Mountain Tuolan. The rock mountain that Culia mentioned wasn't difficult to find, but it took a lot of effort to find the magic communication tower. It was all thanks to Dodo. It turned out that a carnivorous Hallucination Tree was cleverly planted outside. It could hallucinate nearby creatures and prey on them. No wonder Culia said that it couldn't be destroyed by humans.
The Hallucination Tree was a very rare carnivorous plant with a strong predatory ability. The most valuable thing was its fruit. If the fruit was cut open, even if it wasn't eaten, just the smell alone could make people have a strong hallucination. It was generally used to make top-notch hallucination potions or assist in casting some kind of illusion.
However, although the Hallucination Tree was powerful, it was just a troublesome delicacy for the natural enemy of some plants, especially a slime like Dodo who had a strong mutation in strength and appetite.
The main body of the communication tower was a whole piece of special magic crystal. The higher the quality, the more advanced the magic circle could be engraved and the longer the effective distance. The magic circle of each communication tower was different, which prevented the mutual interference of "signals".
What made Chen Rui happy was that the magic crystal was actually a material that could be converted into aura. The quality of this magic crystal was obviously very high as it provided 40,000 auras. Dodo was also very happy. The Hallucination Tree was a rare "food". It was hard to find a few even in the black rainforest. He didn't expect to be able to eat it in a mountainous area like Mountain Xilang.
Chen Rui deliberately let Dodo leave a few fruit pits of the Hallucination Tree, which was the seeds, to enter the galaxy garden and try to put them in the soil. Tip: Unknown plant, maturity period: 5 days, can mature repeatedly, consumes 10 energy dust per day. Current state: Immature.
Seeds were different from ready-made plants. They could be planted directly without the need for transplanting auras. Unfortunately, the devil fruit didn't have a fruit pit or other seeds. Otherwise, it could be planted in large quantities …
If the poison dragon knew Chen Rui's thoughts now, he would definitely scold the greed of humans. A precious fruit that matures once in a few hundred years. You can harvest it in 2 months, and you're still not satisfied?
However, at present, the galaxy garden and pivotal fairy of the Super System were at the lowest level. It seemed that only 5 of the same plant could be planted. In the future, he could upgrade it with the "refined dust". Ordinary dust was called energy dust by the system. It should be "refined" using other functions. This should be a function that could only be obtained after breaking through the Mizar state, so he didn't need to think about it for now.
At present, the connection between Town Leia and Mountain Xilang had been cut off. At least, the speed of news transmission was greatly reduced. Unless someone went to Town Leia to inform, otherwise, Barnacle wouldn't know what happened in the mine. Even if a bandit informed Barnacle before the magic communication tower was destroyed, it didn't matter because "Culia" would really go to Town Leia.
If he stayed in the mining office, it was equivalent to the enemy in the dark while he was in the light. Even if he eliminated Culia, Sully and the others, more powerful enemies would appear one after another. Not only was it dangerous, but it was also passive.
The Red Devils were quite powerful and powerful, but a snake couldn't live without its head. The most effective way was to kill the leader. Now that the main members of the Red Devils in Mountain Xilang, Culia, Sully and Adams had been eliminated, the remaining bandits were hundreds of people. However, they were restricted by Chen Rui who pretended to be Culia in Mountain Walan, so they basically couldn't do much. At present, the main force of the Red Devils was stationed in Town Leia. Their leader, Snowden, had just returned to the Red Spirit Estate. At least, he wouldn't return in a short period of time. Now, only the deputy leader, Barnacle, was left.
Chen Rui's plan was to take the initiative and take advantage of Snowden's absence to remove the nail, Barnacle!
If he continued to wait passively in the mine, even if he destroyed the magic communication tower and delayed the transmission of the news, it wouldn't solve the root of the problem. More powerful enemies would appear one after another. If Barnacle or even Snowden rushed back now, Chen Rui didn't think that he and Athena had any hope of winning.
Therefore, he wanted to take the initiative to eliminate Barnacle first. Under the situation of "a snake without its head", he would try to defeat the main force of the Red Devils. By then, even if Snowden rushed back, he would only be left alone. Then, at the right time, he would cooperate with Princess Jía's military power in the Dark Moon City. He should be able to clear the passage in the west.
Of course, the details of the plan were far more than that. The plan couldn't keep up with the changes. The "Culia" in front of him should be a good identity to use.
Before that, he must return to the green leaf forest. Firstly, it was to reassure Athena. Secondly, it was to truly "sleep" for the "grand master's inheritance". Today's battle with Culia was actually a fluke victory, which also made him more aware of the gap. To face a peak Higher Demon like Barnacle, his current strength was definitely far from enough. Moreover, there might be more unknown dangers in Town Leia. Therefore, the first priority before implementing the plan was to seize this precious free time and concentrate on improving his strength.
Not only Barnacle, but Arux's duel was also getting closer.
After Chen Rui made up his mind, he rode on Mengda and flew toward the green leaf forest with Dodo who was satisfied with his meal.
After a while, the wyvern arrived at the green leaf forest.
At the previously agreed meeting place, Chen Rui didn't see Athena. He only saw Kegu and … a simple wooden house that was about to take shape.
"It must be because you haven't recovered from your previous illness. You're not used to living in a tent. Let me help you build a wooden house!"
The voice from last time still rang in his ears.
Chen Rui was slightly shocked. The initial physical fatigue and even the plans and arrangements in his mind were instantly washed away by a sudden feeling. This feeling quickly occupied every position in his heart.
Looking at this wooden house that could be described as simple, he felt that it was more precious than any luxurious villa or palace.
It was extremely precious.
Footsteps suddenly came from the woods behind him. Chen Rui slowly turned around and saw a familiar figure appearing in his sight.
Compared with the few huge logs on her shoulders, the original slender figure seemed a little petite.
"You're back!" The voice sounded a little surprised, and she quickened her pace.
He could clearly see the dust on her pretty face and the few strands of purple hair on her forehead and temples that were wet with sweat.
At first glance, it might look ridiculous, but Chen Rui didn't feel that way at all. He just felt warm, as if even the chilly sunshine of the Demon Realm behind her became warm in an instant.
