Chen Rui caught the wine and pretended to recall, "I just heard that there seems to be a guy who wants to seduce my woman?"
"You must have heard it wrong," Lomont said innocently, "For a beautiful, generous, and understanding girl like Athena, who has the ability to seduce her other than our mining officer?"
"The most important thing is that she's not your preferred type of wife or widow, right?" Chen Rui opened the bottle and took a sip. He frowned, took out a bottle of fine red fruit wine from the storage and threw it to Lomont.
When Lomont smelled it, he looked happy. He raised the bottle to Chen Rui and took a big gulp. Then, he looked at Chen Rui with interest for a while and said, "My friend, the speed of your strength growth really surprised me. You were still a Higher Demon last time, and now you are already an intermediate stage of Demon King. Could it be that you couldn't exert your strength because of some special situation last time? However, what I admire most is that you got Athena. From your tone just now, could it be … she has really become your woman? "
"No comment." Chen Rui thought of Athena's "special service" the night before he left, and his heart was excited.
"Don't try to hide it from me. I'm an expert. When I talk about this, your eyes are smiling!" Lomont smiled and said, "So … if I kill you, will she become a widow?"
"This idea is so wonderful, but I thought of a better idea." Chen Rui also showed a sly smile, "That is, I will tell this sentence to Delia later."
"How do you know that Delia will come here in a while?" Lomont frowned.
"I've already met with Delia, and I'm very knowledgeable about magic arrays. I'm here to help. If she hadn't insisted, Athena would've come as well." Chen Rui originally didn't know Delia's whereabouts, but he heard from the wyvern that Lomont had been lingering here, so he guessed that this might be the only way for Delia.
As soon as Lomont heard that Chen Rui had seen Delia and that he had come to help them, he had a good impression of him, but his demeanor was deflated. "Lord Chen Rui, Master Chen Rui! That's not a good idea at all. I drank too much and said the wrong thing. Just treat me as a fart and let me go. "
Chen Rui called Dodo to come over from afar. He instructed the wyvern for a while and asked it to return to the nest to inform the wyvern king to start the migration. Of course, he had to instruct the route and time. Otherwise, if such a large-scale wyvern movement was discovered, it would inevitably cause trouble.
The wyvern hissed at Chen Rui and flapped its wings. Lomont could see that this wyvern was at the Demon King level, but its attitude towards Chen Rui was extremely intimate. He was secretly surprised.
The slime, who hadn't tasted delicious barbecue for a long time, volunteered to take on the task of hunting. With the strength of the Demon King level, he quickly got the prey. Chen Rui and Lomont chatted while barbecuing and drinking under the tree. Dodo was very interested in the strange fragrant liquid in the bottle. He asked for a bottle and immediately got out of hand. However, the slime's alcohol tolerance wasn't good, so he was drunk on the ground after a while.
The number of empty bottles on the ground gradually increased. Fortunately, there was a lot of stock in Chen Rui's storage warehouse, enough for several people to drink.
"Thanks." After listening to Chen Rui's encounter with Delia, Lomont suddenly said. Although it seemed casual, Chen Rui could hear that this guy was serious.
A friend in need is a friend indeed. The Silent Night Wetland wasn't a place for vacation and entertainment. Three years ago, Lomont and Delia returned with serious injuries. Since this Chen Rui could come to help, even without the relationship with Athena, he was still a friend worth making. The word 'friend' wasn't just said.
"It's not your turn to thank me." Chen Rui shrugged. "Don't underestimate the greed of humans. There must be a lot of good things in there. Except for Delia's secret treasure, the rest are all mine."
Lomont laughed and said in cooperation, "You really are a greedy guy."
"By the way," Chen Rui took out the Purple Flame Heart ring, "This' passion 'ring seems to be related to an ancient treasure, and it was given to you by Nalini. I can't take it."
Lomont had already heard Chen Rui talking about Nalini's encounter. A trace of sadness flashed through his eyes. He shook his head and smiled self-deprecatingly, "I'm an irresponsible frivolous guy. I can't afford her kindness. You helped her to avenge her, so you should take it. "
Chen Rui didn't argue and kept the Purple Flame Heart.
Everyone had their own story. He didn't ask Lomont more. Men had their own way of comforting. He just took the bottle and touched it with Lomont, and he finished it in one gulp. Although Chen Rui didn't usually drink much, it didn't mean that he didn't have this alcohol tolerance.
"Great!" Lomont looked at Chen Rui with a little more appreciation in his eyes. "By the way, I felt a little strange when I saw you just now. What's the matter with the evil voodoo on you?"
"Evil voodoo?" Chen Rui was taken aback. He thought of Isabella's "seeds". "It was planted by a woman. This woman is called Isabella. She should be of the same race as you. She seems to be at the peak of Great Demon King."
"Isabella? The woman of the peak of Great Demon King? Are you sure she is of the Belphegor Royal Family? " Lomont looked puzzled. "Evil voodoo is a special skill of [The Eye of Evil]. It can bury a special evil seed in the body of the target. The evil voodoo can slowly absorb the soul power of the opponent and grow stronger. The soul power of the person who is infected with the evil voodoo will gradually be devoured and eventually die. This death symptom is somewhat similar to heart failure. There is almost nothing suspicious on the surface. Of course, except for the Belphegor Royal Family with [The Eye of Evil]. If you need it, I can help you remove it now. With your strength, you can also solve it yourself. "
It turns out that Isabella is using this kind of vicious means to kill people quietly! Chen Rui thought for a moment and smiled, "This evil voodoo is not bad. I'll keep it for the time being."
"Don't underestimate the evil voodoo. If it continues like this, even if you are a Demon King, your soul power will continue to be weakened." Lomont took a sip of wine, "Unless you have some secret technique to offset this power."
Chen Rui smiled slightly. He didn't have any secret technique to offset the evil voodoo, but the Demon Overlord-level soul power that he devoured was just too much to digest. At that time, there was also the great danger of his consciousness being erased. Isabella's sneak attack was self-defeating, but it even helped him.
Seeing that Chen Rui didn't care, Lomont didn't say anything more. Anyway, he also had [The Eye of Evil]. If he really needed it, he could help remove it at any time. It would just take more effort.
The 2 drank and chatted. They felt very congenial. Lomont was very interested in Isabella, who was also a Belphegor Royal Family member. He asked all sorts of questions. Chen Rui disdainfully moved this guy's "widow-con" label to the top of "drunkard" and "gambler" in his heart.
As he was talking, Lomont suddenly stopped and stared blankly in front. Chen Rui followed his gaze. It turned out that there was a woman's figure by the lake in the distance.
Due to the distance and the mist by the lake, he could only see that the woman seemed to be wearing a cloak. He couldn't see her face clearly. Before Chen Rui could determine if it was Delia, Lomont had already stood up absent-mindedly. He stared at the figure and murmured, "Delia …"
Chen Rui had determined that the woman was Delia because no one was more impressed by her than Lomont.
"Let's make a deal. If you dare to expose me, I will tell Delia about your misdeeds, including the fact that you have designs on Athena." Chen Rui stood up, and his face had become "Richard". He had decided to use this face outside to avoid being recognized and causing unnecessary trouble.
"Delia!" Chen Rui shouted and waved at the woman. The woman didn't expect to be called out in such a place and at such a distance. She was startled and immediately walked over.
Delia's figure approached. She was still wearing the same masked outfit that she had worn when she met Chen Rui last time. Only a pair of blue eyes could be seen. She wore a cloak that covered her slender and graceful figure.
Delia's gaze swept past Lomont, who was behind Chen Rui. She froze for a moment before her gaze landed on the grinning Chen Rui.
"You are … Richard! Why are you here? "Delia revealed a look of surprise.
Chen Rui smiled. "Beautiful Madam Black Spider, we meet again. I said that I would come in three months … to split your treasure."
"Don't blame me for not reminding you. Three years ago, I didn't even touch the edge of the treasure and almost died inside. If you still insist on dying, it's up to you. "Delia snorted coldly." After you die, Athena can find a better man. "
"This curse is too vicious!" Chen Rui shook his head. "Let me say this first. I am a very greedy guy. How much are you going to pay me?"
Delia sneered. "Although I don't know what other treasures there are in that place … I only want the secret treasure. As for the rest, as long as you are alive to eat it, you can take it all."
"Then it's settled." Chen Rui shrugged and looked at Lomont, who was silent behind him. "Hey, weren't you bragging just now? Why are you mute now? "
Lomont smiled bitterly. Before he could speak, Delia said coldly, "Who is this person? Why did you bring an irrelevant and annoying guy here? "
Lomont was suddenly stunned. He didn't speak anymore, but he was desperately drinking.
Chen Rui shook his head secretly. He thought for a while and said, "He's more than annoying. This guy looks like a wretched guy. Actually, I don't know him. It's just that when I was at the periphery of the Silent Night Wetland, I met this person. He said he was going to see a beauty that he had been separated from for 3 years, 7 days and 4 hours. As he has no sense of direction, he begged me to bring him here. At first, I thought that he was a burden and didn't agree. However, this person cried and rolled on the ground. Then, he shamelessly asked to be my follower. He was willing to help me for free without asking for any reward. He was even willing to work to buy wine for me. I thought about it for a long time, and with a kind heart, I finally agreed to his request. When we go treasure hunting, let this guy step on any traps, let this guy fill in any pits, feed any demonic beasts, then we can save a lot of trouble … "
Lomont looked at Chen Rui, who was talking endlessly. He felt that the adjective "wretched" was more suitable for this guy.
Delia was silent for a while, then she gave a one-word evaluation, "Whatever."
Just like that, Chen Rui followed Delia, took out a backpack, stuffed the drunk Dodo into it, and walked around Moon Lake with someone nicknamed "whatever".
