The noblewoman showed an extremely cautious look and carefully took the fruit from Chen Rui's hand. For a long time, she gave Chen Rui the feeling that she was a deep lake with no ripples, as if nothing could really make waves. Even when she took out the black potion, her reaction was relatively flat.
But when she saw this fruit, even through the veil, Chen Rui could feel the shock and emotion.
This crimson fruit was naturally the aura fruit in the galaxy garden. Chen Rui originally wanted to give Athena a taste to see if there was any magical effect, but he didn't expect the first object to be this mysterious woman.
"What fruit is this? Where did it come from? " The noblewoman's excitement had calmed down in an instant, but Chen Rui could see that the value of the aura fruit was definitely not below the devil pomeg. He didn't expect that the Demon Realm also had people who could use aura.
"This is called 'Jiu Tian Xuan aura fruit.' Like the devil pomeg, it has the same special power, and the quality is higher. It is an ancient mutant planted by my teacher. It is very useful for training, but there are only a dozen left in the teacher's space. " Of course, Chen Rui wouldn't tell her everything. In fact, there were a total of 49 in his warehouse, and there were 5 trees in the galaxy garden.
"Jiu Tian Xuan aura fruit?" The noblewoman seemed to be searching for relevant information in her memory, but unfortunately, she found nothing.
It was certain that she couldn't find it because even this name was temporarily made up by Chen Rui.
Chen Rui knew that the noblewoman's suspicion had not subsided. Another aura fruit appeared in his hand and he opened his mouth to eat it. The overflowing fragrance was fine, but the rich aura made the noblewoman finally nodded and asked, "Is this fruit the same as the devil pomeg that it must be eaten within a specified time? Is there any secret method to maintain its effectiveness? "
Since he hadn't tested it, Chen Rui didn't know how long the aura fruit could be "fresh" in the Demon Realm. He was afraid that the noblewoman would be suspicious, so he replied, "Yes, the only way to preserve it is to put it in the magic bag space opened by the teacher."
The noblewoman returned the spiritual fruit to Chen Rui and put it away in the Dharma treasure pouch. She didn't speak again but pondered.
After a while, the noblewoman's voice finally sounded, but it wasn't directed at Chen Rui, "Madam Delia, please come here."
Delia immediately came to the yard. "Miss, what can I do for you?"
The noblewoman took out a magic scroll, handed it to Delia, and said, "Madam Delia, Her Majesty Catherine had ordered me to be in charge of everything for this trip. I will now authorize you to immediately take the carriage to Town Leia to deal with the affairs after the turmoil. This is the power of attorney personally signed by His Majesty. You can appoint a new mayor and reorganize the defense. Please be sure to control the situation within a day. "
"Yes." Delia took the letter of authorization and asked hesitantly, "Miss, what about you? We are not far from Town Leia now. "
The noblewoman glanced at Chen Rui, "Sir Richard and I have a very urgent and important matter, so we need to go to another place."
Chen Rui was taken aback. What urgent and important matter? How come I don't know?
Delia was also taken aback. Didn't I ask "Richard" to deal with this carefully and then find a way to help him escape? Why did this lady suddenly make the decision to take "Richard" away?
"This Richard …"
"Madam Delia, this is my decision. Please execute it."
The noblewoman's calm tone revealed a strange majesty, which was definitely not what an ordinary superior could have. With Delia's Demon King-level strength, she actually couldn't resist it. She could only respond, "Understood."
"Then, thank you." The noblewoman nodded slightly. Without any movement, Chen Rui felt that the scenery in front of him suddenly changed. The yard and hall disappeared, and he was in a carriage. Although the space of the carriage was larger, it couldn't be compared with the courtyard just now.
The noblewoman put away the magic house props and walked out of the carriage. Chen Rui knew that he couldn't resist, so he consciously followed.
"Dear Madam Delia, don't worry about me. I will miss your wonderful Eye of Incubus and … that wonderful body. Maybe one day, I can taste more of Madam Black Spider's beauty. "Seeing that Delia kept staring at him, Chen Rui said with a smile.
As soon as he said that, the two Higher Demon maids suddenly glared at him. They didn't expect this captive to be so daring to tease the madam at this time.
"Hmph! If you fall into my hands next time, you won't be treated as courteously as Miss. I hope you can live until that day. " Delia was also a smart person. She knew that Chen Rui was afraid that the noblewoman would suspect him, so he purposely bid farewell like this. She replied coldly, bowed to the noblewoman, and ordered the coachman to drive the carriage away.
"If it wasn't for Delia's previous injury, I would have thought that you two were old friends." The noblewoman watched the carriage leave and looked deeply at Chen Rui, "However, do you really want to get Delia? Maybe I can help you. "
"I was just trying to show off a few words before leaving. That Eye of Incubus almost made me suffer a big loss." Chen Rui shrugged with a look of lingering fear, "What's more, that woman called herself Black Spider. I don't want to be the male that she eats. So, Miss, you don't have to say the latter conditions or promises. Where are we going to do those 'important' things? "
"A smart person shouldn't ask this kind of question."
As soon as he finished his words, the noblewoman suddenly grabbed his shoulder. Chen Rui felt like he was riding on the clouds. The surrounding scenery flashed past him, making him feel a strong dizziness. He was secretly speechless at the noblewoman's strength.
Even Paglio couldn't compare to this speed. Of course, the premise was that the seal wasn't unlocked.
The noblewoman grabbed Chen Rui and galloped for a while. She leaped into a forest and stopped. She listened carefully again. Chen Rui already faintly understood that someone was following them.
There was a sudden cold snort behind the noblewoman's veil. She disappeared in a flash, and only Chen Rui was left in the forest. If the "Dark Will" was still there and could be used, Chen Rui would not hesitate to activate the teleportation and leave this dangerous and mysterious noblewoman. Unfortunately, the real ring was in the hands of the noblewoman. There were still more than ten hours before it could be used again. Even if he immediately unlocked the golden crystal shackles on his hands and feet, with the noblewoman's strength, he wouldn't be able to escape far.
Transforming the golden crystal shackles required a certain amount of time, and now was not the best time. This was an important trump card for him to escape. Before that, this kind of imprisonment was a good cover.
After a moment, the noblewoman's figure instantly appeared beside him. Seeing that Chen Rui didn't intend to escape, she said lightly, "You are really smart."
"I wanted to ask who was following us, or if you killed these people, but after thinking about it … I am the so-called 'smart person', so I didn't ask much."
"You've asked." There seemed to be a faint smile behind the veil, "But, you definitely won't get an answer. I'm sorry, please rest for a while. "
Before Chen Rui could protest, he felt a strong impact on his brain, and suddenly lost consciousness.
When he opened his eyes, he was already in another place. There were large bushes around him, and the ground under his feet was soft and moist. There was thin white fog floating around, and visibility was very low.
The noblewoman's quiet voice sounded, "You're awake? Your spirit and physique are quite special. No wonder even the Eye of Incubus of the Leviathan Royal Family suffered in front of you. Also, your injury recovered quite quickly. Such a serious injury is actually healed. "
"Should I thank you for your compliment first, then protest that you knocked me out?" Chen Rui rubbed his head strenuously. "It's already afternoon? So, I've been unconscious … for a day? "
"No, it's almost been three days."
"Three days?" Chen Rui was taken aback. I actually fainted for three days! Then, there's only a little more than a week before Arux's War Contract expires. However, for now, I should save my life first. This noblewoman was at least a Great Demon King powerhouse. Dark Will was in her hands, so it was very difficult to escape.
"Now, please give me a Jiu Tian Xuan aura fruit."
"Miss, how many do you want in total?"
The noblewoman replied, "About the same as devil pomeg … about ten. Can you give it to me? "
Chen Rui didn't say anything and handed an aura fruit to the noblewoman. The noblewoman didn't expect him to not mention any conditions. She hesitated a little and took it. She had already covered her body with a light gray cloak. She turned around and ate the fruit.
After eating the fruit, the noblewoman sat down. A faint smoke came out of the cloak. Chen Rui suddenly felt that her breath seemed to have weakened a little.
After a long time, the noblewoman stood up.
"Whether your teacher is a Demi-God powerhouse or not, what is certain is that he is definitely a grandmaster of botany. Although this Jiu Tian Xuan aura fruit is somewhat different from the devil pomeg, in a sense, it is more useful to me."
Chen Rui smiled slightly. He was sure that this noblewoman came under orders to consume the devil pomeg herself. Her identity was likely to be a royal talent that the Shadow Empire Royal Family focused on training. She might even be the successor of the future empress.
"In the following time, you will provide me with a Jiu Tian Xuan aura fruit every hour … two hours at most. At the last one, I will unlock the gold crystal shackles for you and return the 'Dark Will' to you. Do you think this is okay? "
The noblewoman knew that if she ate one now, she would need the other party to provide more, so she took the initiative to state the conditions.
"I don't seem to have any other choice."
Chen Rui knew that she definitely needed more than one aura fruit. He took the initiative to hand it over just now because he had a follow-up plan. He shrugged when he heard that, "However, I don't want to get any more mimicry stuff! At that time, I will hand over all the fruits honestly, but my life will not be guaranteed. So, I will change the order. I will get the Dark Will first, then I will give you the last fruit in exchange for unlocking the shackles. "
The noblewoman thought about it and agreed to this request.
"So, for the sake of the Jiu Tian Xuan aura fruit just now, can you tell me where this place is?"
There seemed to be a charming smile behind the veil, "I remember when we first talked, didn't Sir Richard have the 'ambition' to come here … to be a demonic beast hunter?"
Chen Rui suddenly reacted and lost his voice, "Silent Night Wetland!"
