The next day, Chen Rui bid farewell to Athena, rode on the wyvern and flew west.
Athena's unexpectedly extensive service increased their intimacy again. Although he enjoyed that wonderful feeling, Chen Rui still severely criticized her behavior of secretly reading unhealthy novels (In fact, someone had tens of gigabytes of unhealthy pictures in another world). Of course, the girl still needed to be taught well. As for some kind of education, let's wait until her 20th birthday …
Chen Rui took Mengda and Kegu with him this time. The first place he was going to was Mountain Xilang, where there were still several Demon King-level wyverns.
After about two days, Chen Rui arrived at Mountain Xilang and successfully met with the few adult wyverns. When they heard that they were returning to the Silent Night Wetland, the wyverns that had left their nest for a long time hissed excitedly.
Chen Rui did not leave immediately, but he secretly contacted Tim, who was the mining officer and the captain of the West Road defense team. Tim was a busy man now. He had to organize the miners to take turns to mine the open pit and train the defense team.
However, the bandits were basically cleared now. Tim was originally a very capable talent, especially when some of the people he brought were the elites of the family. Everything was going on in an orderly manner.
Tim was very happy when he saw Chen Rui. After taking the longevity potion, his vitality that was overdrawn due to the secret method was indeed restored to a considerable extent. He could now get rid of the limitation of the fountain of life. Lysa was still nursing her child in the underground world. Since the distance was very close, Tim often went to meet her.
There was good news. Dodo, who was sleeping, finally woke up. The spirit-devouring demonic flies condensed by the Demon Overlord-level territory contained powerful power. After digesting this power, Dodo broke through Higher Demon in one fell swoop and reached Demon King-level.
Chen Rui came to Medusa's Lair accompanied by Tim. When Dodo saw Chen Rui, he jumped over happily.
"Great master! You're finally here! " The slime expressed his longing for his master endlessly, focusing on his master's barbecue.
These days, Sir Dodo stayed in the underground world where there was no moonlight and ate medusa's food. It was really unfair. Compared with this kind of life, wandering outside freely with his master and eating fresh and delicious food from time to time was a good life like a Demon God.
"Master, the humblest servant, Dodo, is willing to fight with you." After Dodo finished speaking, he suddenly turned into Tim and bowed to Chen Rui.
Chen Rui was taken aback. Previously, Dodo could only transform into some simple forms. After advancing to Demon King, Dodo's transformation ability had a qualitative breakthrough. He could freely transform into a human form!
However, "Tim" had only taken a few steps before he began to reveal his true form. Like a traditional Chinese zombie, his knees did not bend as he hopped and walked. Sure enough, although his appearance had changed, the nature of an onion remained.
"Master, I'm amazing, right?" Dodo jumped and looked proud.
"It's nothing. I can do it too." Chen Rui secretly used < Camouflage > and changed into Tim's appearance.
"Dodo". Dodo said. "Dodo" said.
"Dodo can still change." Dodo's body began to change again. He actually turned into a spirit-devouring demonic fly, flapping his wings and flying. The current Dodo, after transforming into a demonic fly, could actually fly!
What surprised Chen Rui even more was that when Dodo turned into a demonic fly, he felt that his body was a lot heavier. It seemed that there was an additional force field around him. Within the range of the force field, moving would consume more energy.
This familiar feeling … is the characteristic of Glorfin's territory!
The power of "territory" can only be comprehended by at least the Demon Emperor level, and the Demon Emperor is only a pseudo-territory. Only the Demon Overlord level can truly master the territory. Dodo is only at the Demon King level. Why does he have this power?
However, the effect of Dodo's force field was obviously worse than Glorfin's, and the range was also narrower with a diameter of about 10 meters.
Chen Rui remembered. Maybe because of the devil fruit, Dodo had a chance to obtain the ability of the devoured target. It was also because of this that he could disguise as the spirit dragon to release Dragon Demeanor. It seemed that he hit the jackpot again this time and obtained the spirit-devouring demonic fly's ability.
However, Dodo only flew for a while and fell down. He returned to the appearance of an onionhead, panting heavily. Obviously, this state consumed a lot of energy. It seemed that there was a fundamental difference between "ability" and the territory comprehended. In any case, Dodo's luck was really good.
"Okay, stop pretending!" Chen Rui could see that the slime's panting and falling to the ground were acting, so he immediately added, "Within three seconds, if you don't get up, the hallucination fruit will be gone!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Dodo had already appeared on his shoulder at the fastest speed. It was no less than teleportation. It seemed that the power of food was unimaginably huge for the slime.
Chen Rui threw a few hallucination fruits to the slime and asked Tim to contact the earth elementals and taurens as quickly as possible.
Chief Tauren and the two elite earth elementals heard that it was Chen Rui's summon and rushed over personally. Chen Rui asked the earth elementals and taurens to help mine moonlight stones and smelt some rare minerals. The three leaders did not hesitate and immediately agreed.
Chen Rui explained that he was going to the Silent Night Wetland this time to find a secret treasure that could lift the tauren's curse. On the other hand, he also had the corresponding information about requiem fruit that could repair the earth elemental heart, but it still needed to be further confirmed.
Chief Tauren, Delong, and the two elite earth elementals were overjoyed when they heard the news.
Chen Rui explained to Tim again, then he rode on the wyvern with Dodo and flew toward the Silent Night Wetland together.
A few days passed.
It seemed that the scenery along the way was getting more and more familiar. Chen Rui was in a trance for a while. For him who had been training in the training ground, it was equivalent to more than ten years. The last experience from Town Leia all the way to the Silent Night Wetland was still fresh in his memory.
Chen Rui gently stroked the red piccolo in his hand. Although it was an accident, that woman had left an indelible mark in his heart. Star-like eyes, deep-sea wisdom, flame-like blood …
Zhuang Zi once said, it's better to forget each other than helping each other in times of hardship.
Due to the drought, the two fishes were stranded on the land together. They breathed and spat at each other to moisten each other, sharing weal and woe. When the water was full, they swam back to the rivers, lakes, and seas, forgetting each other from then on. This could be called the original law of things.
After a dozen years, decades, or even a hundred years, would he still remember this feeling? Would she still remember him? Perhaps they had already forgotten each other, and only a code name was left.
The Earth Elemental King said that elementals were formed by the condensation of natural elements. Death was just another way of survival. Wasn't it the same for humans? Like other substances, they were born, perished, and transformed. This was the natural law of the universe. No matter which plane or which race, it was the same.
So what was the meaning of his own survival? Was it just to survive?
This question could be extended to a wide range, and there were many textbook standard answers. It was just that Chen Rui's heart was inexplicably confused until he was awakened by the hissing sound of the wyvern.
It turned out that the long-awaited wyvern lair was already in front.
Chen Rui shook his head and put away the piccolo. If I can't figure it out, then don't think about it. I'll cross the bridge when I reach it.
The wyvern lair was still the same, but the poisonous pond in the center had shrunk a lot.
Seeing his friend Chen Rui and the wyverns returning, the wyvern king, Galen, let out an excited cry. Chen Rui jumped off the wyvern's back and came to Gaia. He hugged the wyvern king's neck affectionately. There was no need for any formalities for a battle partner who had gone through life and death together.
"Galen, my partner. I'm very happy to see you again. Has your injury fully recovered? "Chen Rui looked at the wyvern king's recovered wings and scales and showed joy.
"Yes! Thank you for your treatment last time. "In < Analytical Eyes >, Galen's strength was B, which was the middle stage of the Great Demon King.
"There's no need to be so polite between partners. By the way, I brought Mengda and Kegu back too."
The wyvern king looked at the two timid young dragons and ordered the wyverns to find Mengda's parents. As expected, Mengda's parents were very excited to see their long-lost child. Kegu's parents had died in the previous battle with the hydra. Under Chen Rui's suggestion, Mengda's parents adopted Kegu, who had become an orphan.
"Galen, after I left, that terrifying enemy didn't harass the wyvern lair again, right?"
The "terrifying enemy" that Chen Rui mentioned referred to Broc. Broc suffered a big loss last time. Not only was his Eye of Incubus severely injured, but he was also corroded by Paglio's venom. With Broc's personality, even if he was temporarily frightened by Christina or had not recovered from his serious injury, he would never let it go in the future.
"I didn't see the enemy." Galen replied, "After the hydra was eliminated, the wyvern lair had a rare peace, but we encountered another problem. That is, the pond and the hydra lair are gradually shrinking. If this continues, the wyvern lair will face a new survival problem. "
When Chen Rui arrived, he also noticed the problem with the pond and asked, "Did the pond have such changes in the past?"
The wyvern king recalled for a while and replied, "Generally speaking, there will be a period of such a situation every three years. However, it wasn't so serious in the past, and it returned to normal after a while. However, we don't know why the pond is drying up more and more. The same goes for the hydra lair's poisonous pond. That's why there's an attempt to occupy the wyvern lair. Before this, our wyvern clan had no conflict with the hydra. If this continues, we can only choose to migrate and find a new lair. "
"Every three years?" Chen Rui seemed to remember something. Didn't Delia say that? Every three years, the "magic circle" of a certain treasure in the Silent Night Wetland would weaken. Could it be related to this?
Chen Rui thought for a while and said to the wyvern king, "Actually, even without the poisonous pond, I still have to suggest migration to you. Because the terrifying enemy from the last time is likely to come here for revenge again. I hope you can move to a safe place. "
"The wyvern's survival ability is very tenacious. It can adapt to all kinds of harsh environments, but it needs a poisonous pond to reproduce and raise young dragons. My partner, do you have a suitable place? "
"This kind of place is indeed not easy to find. However, I may be able to move this pond away." Chen Rui came to the pond and looked at it. His hands began to emit a faint mist.
