Days passed by in the blink of an eye.
On this day, Chen Rui and Sabrina walked out of the entrance of the Crystal Valley side by side.
"Thank you madam for helping me get out of the valley this time." Chen Rui said with a happy face, "If it weren't for Sir Jacob sleeping in the magic circle and the Illusive Demon Shield must refer to the Dragon Inscription in the misty swamp, I wouldn't have troubled madam to accompany me out. It's just that Sir Jacob's inscription is really amazing. We can just teleport from the misty swamp, but we have to take so many detours to get to the misty swamp from here. "
Sabrina shook her head, "It's just a small matter. Master, you're too polite. If you count it like this, then I don't know how to thank you."
"I don't know when I'll have time to go out for a breath of fresh air again. Although I can get whatever I want in the valley, I always feel like it's a cage. Please forgive me, madam. I'm just expressing my feelings."
Sabrina sighed, "You're actually right. No matter how good this valley is, it's just a cage. However, the world we live in is originally a huge cage. No one can escape the shackles of time and space. Perhaps the only thing we can do is desperately grasp more shackles to control and imprison others. This way, it can eliminate the fear in your heart. "
"Madam is a person with a story." Chen Rui glanced at her, "I hope one day, I'll be qualified to listen to madam's story."
"Master, you have to be patient in everything. The easier it is to get, the more boring it is." Sabrina chuckled and changed the topic, "By the way, I received news from outside that there are rumors that treasures have been found in the area outside the valley recently. It has attracted many people to explore. Although the Crystal Valley has Sir Jacob's concealment inscription and magic circle, we still need to pay more attention to the defense and concealment of the valley recently. It'll be fine after this rumor passes."
Chen Rui instinctively felt that this treasure hunt shouldn't be so simple. It was probably related to Christina. Speaking of which, he had been in the Crystal Valley for so many days. Although he used the magic item to send a signal to show that he was "alive", he couldn't transmit more information such as the 3 Demon Overlords. Besides, he didn't know if it would be interfered with by the Dragon Inscription in the valley.
Christina's ingenious use of such a method to probe was most likely to obtain more information before launching her attack. It seems that her side was ready to strike as well. No matter what, the plan must succeed. When the time comes, not only would they be able to breach Crystal Valley and destroy the enemy's lair in one fell swoop, they would also have a high chance of eliminating Paglio's enemies.
However, his "research" this time was also a premeditated step, and it was a very important step.
"I think I've been patient enough." Chen Rui shook his head with a bitter smile and "tactfully" did not mention this again. "By the way, it seems that the chaos in the Mystic Valley seems to have calmed down a bit recently, but I always feel that Izola will not give up so easily. She is probably brewing a bigger plan."
"Hmph! It's just a last-ditch struggle, but … master, it's better to be cautious, especially pay attention to your own safety. "
"Madam, aren't you going to invite me to the blue house?"
"Master!" At that moment, Jacob walked over excitedly with a happy face.
"It seems that there's no chance for this." Sabrina deliberately made a regretful smile, bowed to Jacob and left slowly.
"Sir Jacob, you're awake?" Chen Rui's eyes lit up, "How's the effect?"
"The effect is great! You're a genius! How about this, I'll give Luna to you! "Jacob was overjoyed.
With Chen Rui's "awesome" support, the transformation of the magic circle had been completely successful. The crystal dragon was overjoyed. The current magic circle could double Jacob's recovery speed, and the interval between each use was reduced from 7 days to 2 days. Both the effect and efficiency were much better than expected. However, under the effect of the compound inscription of "Deep Sleep" and "Recovery", Jacob would be in a restorative deep sleep for a whole day, unable to wake up.
Today was the first trial, and it was indeed successful. Now, Jacob's recovery speed was greatly accelerated, so he was naturally delighted. Back then, he almost died in the hands of Paglio. Until now, the crystal dragon still had lingering fears. He didn't dare to leave the Crystal Valley easily before he recovered. Now that he finally found a shortcut to recover, he couldn't help but look at Chen Rui in a different light. He even rewarded his favorite maid, Luna, to Chen Rui.
Chen Rui shook his head righteously, "There's really no need for a reward. I've already received enough benefits from Sir Jacob. Besides, this isn't just my credit. Without sir's Dragon Inscription, this effect can't be achieved. "
Originally, this magic circle was used to trick the dragon, but he still got the crystal dragon's gratitude in return. He was really a little sorry. The most important thing was that Luna … was a centaur maid with a round waist and thick arms. Her taste was heavy, and he really couldn't bear it.
Luna was the crystal dragon's favorite maid. If he really gave her out, he would be embarrassed to take her back. Jacob was really a little reluctant. Now that he heard Chen Rui's righteous words, even though the crystal dragon was usually moody, he couldn't help but have a good impression of this "good comrade" who didn't ask for anything in return.
"Well, weren't you interested in borrowing the puppet's heart last time? I'll lend it to you for a few days to study! "
Chen Rui's eyes lit up. He originally wanted to make this request, but he was afraid that Jacob would be suspicious. Now that he heard the other party take the initiative to ask, he naturally couldn't pretend to be reserved anymore, "Great, thank you sir!"
The puppet's heart was the secret treasure of the Beelzebub Royal Family. It was very useful for making puppets. Jacob got it from Azgalor. Originally, the crystal men were puppets made by the crystal dragon with his strange power. With the help of the puppet's heart, he could make more and more powerful crystal men, and he could also control the crystal men to a certain extent. Jacob took out the puppet's heart to further win over Chen Rui because from Chen Rui's potential and understanding, this magic circle was likely to have further room for improvement. Of course, he also explained that he was "borrowing" instead of "giving".
Moreover, the leader with the highest strength of the crystal men was only a Great Demon King. Taking 10,000 steps back, with his Demon Overlord strength, he wasn't afraid that Chen Rui would control the crystal men to do anything out of line.
It was just that in this world, many things had 10,000 steps …
"I know the puppet's heart is very important to sir, so I don't dare to borrow it for too long. How about this, I'll return it to sir the next time sir wakes up from the magic circle. "
When the crystal dragon heard that it was just three days, he immediately nodded. He took out the puppet's heart from the space ring and gave it to Chen Rui.
Chen Rui carefully took the translucent khaki crystal and looked extremely excited, "Please forgive me, Sir Jacob. Time is precious now. I can't wait to study it. I'll leave first."
The crystal dragon was in a good mood. He waved his hand generously, turned around and walked toward the Crystal Lair.
When Chen Rui returned to the Valley of Dreams, Freya greeted him and served some snacks, "Sir is back. When sir went out in the morning, you haven't eaten yet. There's still some time before lunch. Have some snacks and fruits first."
In order to rush for time in the morning, Chen Rui hurriedly invited Sabrina out. He was indeed a little hungry now, so he immediately picked up a snack and ate it, "Is there any wine?"
During this time, in order to conceal his identity, drinking had almost become an involuntary habit of his.
Freya hesitated for a moment, "Sir, finish these snacks first. Otherwise, drinking like this isn't good for your health."
Chen Rui smiled at her, "Got it."
Although his Great Demon face was a little ugly, this smile made Freya feel unprecedentedly at ease. This kind of peace of mind was something that the tormented succubus had never felt in all these years. A strange emotion suddenly surged in her heart. She whispered, "Sir, my injuries are all healed. Thank you sir for your advanced potions."
"Oh, it's nothing." Freya was Kia's mother, and she had a miserable experience. Of course, Chen Rui wouldn't be stingy with that little potion. Usually, he didn't ask her to do anything special here. She just took care of his daily life and sent back the maids sent by Manu. As for himself, he spent most of his time training in the lab.
"Sir … that …" Freya looked hesitant, but she finally mustered up her courage and said, "Sir, do you want Freya to sleep with you tonight?"
These days, some of the promiscuous encounters that Freya expected didn't happen at all. Although this master looked very tired every day when he came back from the lab. He slept right after eating and didn't have time to do "other" things, Freya, who had been tortured for many years, could feel that the "master" wasn't the kind of person she imagined. On the contrary, he was a good master.
Although some things were inadvertent, such as those "precious" potions, she felt the long-lost warmth.
Following such a master was hundreds of times better than before. The more she felt like this, the more afraid she was to return to the previous days. Therefore, she volunteered herself to sleep with him, hoping to become a more favored maid. This way, the chance of being sent out would be much smaller.
Chen Rui didn't expect Freya to make such a request. His eyes suddenly became weird. He shook his head and said, "No need."
Freya looked a little sad, "Does sir dislike me for being …"
"No." Chen Rui shook his head. Freya was beautiful and gentle. She belonged to the type that made people want to love her. Unfortunately, she was Kia's mother. This preconceived notion made him not have any extra thoughts. Although this kind of thing was very common in the Demon Realm, and for the Demons who had a lifespan of hundreds of years, there was no problem with the age and appearance of the mother and daughter. However, Chen Rui came from another world where morality and ethics were deeply rooted. Having a few girlfriends was already the limit. This kind of mother-daughter complex was really unacceptable.
"If I guessed correctly, you're doing this … to get the news of Kia from me, right?"
When Freya heard her daughter's name, her voice trembled a little, "Kia … she is now …"
"As far as I know, she is fine. I can only tell you this. If you're really good for her, don't ask anything. Understand? " Chen Rui didn't tell her everything. Although Freya shouldn't be Sabrina's spy, there must be no mistakes at this critical moment of the plan.
"Understood, thank you sir. I'll leave first. "Freya stared at Chen Rui for a moment. A rare expression flashed in her eyes. She walked to the door and suddenly smiled," Actually … sir's guess just now isn't completely correct. "
Freya's moving smile before leaving was very similar to Kia's. For a moment, Chen Rui was a little absent-minded. Then, he returned to normal and knocked on his head. Why am I thinking nonsense? The final launch is imminent. I can't make any mistakes in the next step. I better think carefully.
