Soon, the puppet of the "God-Eating Mask" had one more person. There were currently two people. One was Snowden who was far away in the Red Spirit Estate and the other was Cyprus in front of him.
[Puppet Control] was an additional skill that could completely control the enemy's will and make it a puppet that couldn't betray. So, Cyprus confessed everything he knew without reservation.
Lavat didn't come to the Dark Moon to help Dominique kill Chen Rui and Arux, nor was it for the human trafficking. In the original intelligence, Chen Rui and Arux were just Higher Demon. Dominique and Cyprus were foolproof, so there was no need for Lavat to come personally. The real purpose of the deputy leader of the Double-headed Dragon coming here was to take something from the Mellon Family. As for what this thing was, even Cyprus, as Lavat's confidant, had no way to know.
This thing didn't seem to be retrieved yet, so Lavat didn't leave but waited. Lavat acquiesced in tonight's action. Eliminating the Cloak Gang would not only allow Dominique to take revenge, but it could also help the Mellon Family and solve the problem of human trafficking.
From Cyprus, he learned that the Mellon Family was the biggest human trafficker. Compared to them, Silva and the others were just small fries. The hateful thing was that the Mellon Family actually took the initiative to report the missing people to Princess Royal Jía and was ordered to investigate the matter thoroughly. However, they secretly manipulated the Gorefiend Gang to kidnap people and "transport" people to the south. It was a standard case of a thief calling a thief. Now that the Gorefiend Gang was destroyed, the dark forces of the Dark Moon were firmly controlled by the Cloak Gang. Therefore, the Mellon Family didn't dare to act rashly to avoid being exposed.
Chen Rui narrowed his eyes: It seems that the Mellon Family isn't a fence-sitter, but a super fence-sitter. Their foundation is in the Dark Moon. Not only do they have a relationship with the Red Spirit Estate, but they also have a secret relationship with the Blue Lava Estate.
By the way, I don't know what that important thing is. Chen Rui looked at the "loyal" Cyprus and smiled mysteriously.
The next day, Northwest Block, Mellon Family's residential area.
Lavat was sitting on the sofa, frowning. Cyprus was standing behind him, and Lombardo was sitting carefully opposite.
"Patriarch Lombardo, are you sure Jía doesn't have any other Demon King-level?"
Lombardo heard the coldness in Lavat's tone and quickly replied, "As far as I know, the palace guards commander, Kaguron, is likely to be a Demon King-level powerhouse. He usually uses some kind of special ability to conceal his power. However, according to a report from an insider in the palace, Kaguron did not leave the palace last night, and was in charge of guarding as usual. Other than Kaguron, there shouldn't be anyone else. You know, the Dark Moon is the weakest estate. Except for the imperial guards, there isn't even a decent legion. How can it be compared with an elite legion like the Double-headed Dragon? "
Lombardo's last sentence was obviously a compliment, but the other party did not fall for it at all. He said coldly, "The truth now is that my member Dominique was killed by someone from this weak territory! Moreover, there were still no clues about the murderer! Last night, in order to take revenge with her own hands, Dominique deliberately sent Cyprus away, but in the end, even her head was chopped off! I now suspect Aguile and Arux of the Cloak Gang! In the intelligence room you provided, these two people are just Higher Demons? "
Lavat, who was resurrected from the dead, was naturally Chen Rui after using the [Camouflage] skill. After releasing the breath of the Alioth state, it was similar to the usual Lavat. Together with Cyprus, it was considered flawless.
This posture was in line with Lavat's usual attitude, so it shouldn't be exposed. Judging from Lombardo's tone, Kaguron's strength was likely to be exposed, and there was an insider of the Mellon Family in the palace.
In fact, Lombardo did not have the slightest doubt about Lavat. He never thought that the person in front of him was a fake. Facing the impolite questioning, his head was sweating profusely.
"Leader Lavat, Dominique can't die in vain. This time, our Double-headed Dragon Legion's loss in the Dark Moon …" Cyprus's loud voice sounded at the side.
Lombardo didn't know that Cyprus was acting under the control of "Lavat". As soon as he heard there was a way out, he quickly said, "Sir Lavat! Please rest assured that the Mellon Family will definitely satisfy you. "
"Lavat" nodded gloomily, "Cyprus, you leave first."
After Cyprus left, there were only Lavat and Lombardo in the room. "Lavat's" voice was slightly lower, "About that thing …"
Lombardo quickly said attentively, "That thing will be fully mature in about a day, no more than two days at most. By then, sir will have to escort it."
Mature? Chen Rui's heart moved, and he asked, "You should know the importance of this thing. Are you sure it's okay?"
"Absolutely no problem!" Lombardo could definitely guarantee this matter. "The Mellon Family has guarded it for hundreds of years. Now it's finally time to complete the mission."
Guarded for hundreds of years? Chen Rui's pupils shrank. What is it? Will it be … the flower of mist? Or the requiem fruit? My luck can't be so good, right?
I can't easily make a request now. If I'm exposed, all my previous efforts will be wasted.
"If sir isn't assured, I can take sir to patrol again."
Lombardo saw "Lavat" frowning and didn't speak, so he took the initiative to say it. It was exactly what someone wanted. Although he couldn't wait to go, he pretended to be reserved and pondered for a moment. Then, he "reluctantly" agreed.
Lombardo walked into the study room with Chen Rui and opened the bookcase. There was a secret door behind it.
Open it directly? Chen Rui was a little dissatisfied in his heart. Shouldn't he take out a book or turn a certain pillar first? This design really lacked any sense of mystery.
After entering the secret door, the two walked down step by step. After passing through a long spiral staircase, Chen Rui felt that the temperature was getting lower and lower. In the end, there was a bone-chilling cold. Under the illumination of the surrounding magic lights, he could see that the walls were covered with ice.
Lombardo's finger emitted a faint red light. It was obvious that he had activated some kind of warm item. Seeing that "Lavat" didn't react at all, Lombardo said flatteringly, "Sir, don't you need to use the warming ring this time?"
The warming ring should be on the real Lavat, but unfortunately, the power of the [Scorching Dragon Kill] was too terrifying. Not to mention the space storage item, even the whole person was blasted into pieces. Those good things were also sealed in an unknown space, so how could there be any warming ring?
"Hmph!" Chen Rui didn't answer at all and just snorted coldly.
Lombardo understood the meaning of the song and revealed an expression of sudden realization, "Sir, are you using these mysterious ice to stimulate your body and temper your fire magic power? Sure enough, the demeanor of a powerhouse! "
Demeanor your ass! If there was really that ring, who would be willing to suffer like this? Chen Rui looked at this guy with dissatisfaction, but this temperature was really nothing to him who had trained his mind in the glacier.
As the two continued to walk down, the temperature got lower and lower. Even Chen Rui couldn't bear it. Lombardo was even shivering. The warming ring and his own Higher Demon power couldn't resist this kind of coldness.
Chen Rui became more and more curious. He didn't expect there was such a strange place under the Dark Moon. What would the "mature" thing in this place be?
The stairs were finally finished, and then there was a long tunnel. The light was getting brighter and brighter. Finally, Lombardo's footsteps in front stopped. What appeared in front of him was an ice cave. It was surrounded by dazzling ice light that contrasted with the dim lights along the way. These ice seemed to glow by itself, but the biggest light source still came from the thing in the middle.
This was a snow-white plant. It was very small with seven leaves on it and three fruits. Looking closely, the plant, fruit, and leaves were all ice as if they were carved by a skilled craftsman.
What is this?
It's definitely not the flower of mist nor the requiem fruit described by the Earth Elemental King, but it's definitely a very rare thing. Otherwise, the Mellon Family wouldn't have guarded it for hundreds of years.
Just as Chen Rui was staring, Lombardo said with his teeth trembling, "Sir Lavat, you see, this realm king fruit is only one or two days away from maturity. It's guaranteed to be safe."
So it's called realm king fruit. Chen Rui nodded slightly. He walked slowly around the realm king fruit and circled it. After observing for a while, he returned to Lombardo without making a sound.
Lombardo knew that Dominique's death made this deputy leader very angry. It was definitely his responsibility for the poor intelligence. Even if it wasn't, the other party would vent his anger on him. This was the privilege of the powerhouse.
Lombardo couldn't care less about the cold. He quickly took off a space ring from his finger and presented it with both hands, "This is a little gift from me. Please accept it, sir."
Chen Rui took Lombardo's "gift" and looked inside with his consciousness. There were a lot of superb magic materials and a large amount of black crystal coins. If Chen Rui didn't get the poison dragon's treasure, this should be the largest fortune. Lombardo, who had always been stingy, was bleeding a lot this time.
These things were nothing for the poison dragon's treasure. Chen Rui took the ring calmly. Lombardo had been observing Chen Rui's expression. When he saw Chen Rui's indifferent expression, he secretly thought that Chen Rui was really experienced. He said, "I heard that sir is proficient in appraisal. There are still some unappraised treasures in the Mellon Family's treasury. Can sir help to appraise them later?"
This is obviously a bribe. Chen Rui was a little puzzled. Why does Lombardo want to bribe Lavat at all costs? If it's just for the human trafficking business or getting in touch with the Blue Lava Estate, the price is too high.
Besides, judging from Lombardo's attitude, the collusion with the Blue Lava Estate is not a matter of a day or two.
"Okay." Chen Rui's expression relaxed, and he finally responded.
Finally, Dominique's matter is over. Lombardo secretly breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "Sir, my son, Williams. Mellon, is currently serving in the Bloodwave Legion under Sir Fodor Tower. Please take care of him in the future."
I see. Chen Rui nodded slightly, "Williams. Mellon, I'll remember this name."
Lombardo was overjoyed. He bowed and said, "Thank you, sir. It's too cold here. I don't have the power of a powerhouse like sir. Even if I have the fire ring, I can't resist it anymore. Please go to the treasury to appraise the treasure."
Chen Rui nodded and didn't make things difficult. Instead, he followed Lombardo out of the tunnel because he had already tried using the galaxy garden quietly when Lombardo was trying to please him. The mist circled around the realm king fruit, but there was no hint. It seems that this thing shouldn't be a plant or water source.
The realm king fruit will mature in 2 days. From Lombardo's tone, this thing is very rare. It shouldn't be for Lavat's own use, but for a big shot. It is likely to be the Blue Lava Lord. Anyway, I've already taken the identity of Lavat. Even if I can't use it by then, I'll hide or destroy this thing.
Before that, I'll go to the Mellon Family's treasury to help "appraise" what is there.
