Chen Rui knew nothing about the power transfer battle of the Leviathan Royal Family. At this moment, he was riding the little black horse safely out of Town Mordo. Soon afterward, with his potioneer identity and the appearance and breath of the Incubus Beast, the little black horse, he passed through the frontier checkpoint very smoothly and officially stepped into the Dark Moon's territory.
After so many changes and adventures in the Shadow Empire, Chen Rui's longing for Athena became stronger and stronger. Not only did he miss Athena, but he also missed Kia, Jía, Alice, Paglio and more.
The Incubus Beast was very fast. Three days later, the figure of the little black horse had appeared at the east gate of the Dark Moon City. Even in the evening when the light was not very bright, Chen Rui could still see that the spirit and temperament of the gate guards had changed a lot from before. It seemed that through this period of training, the overall quality had been improved a lot.
The shops along the way were nervously preparing for the start of the night market. Since the night market organized by the Cloak Gang started operating, it received unanimous praise from the entire Dark Moon City. It became the favorite place of the Demons who liked to hang out at night. It effectively promoted the economy and consumption.
Now the night market was divided into two large areas, southwest and southeast. The southwest was dominated by small merchants and hawkers, while the southeast was a joint sales point of large and medium-sized merchants. Each had its own characteristics. As the controller, the Cloak Gang's income had greatly increased. The hot pot restaurant was still very popular. Now, it had opened three branches and became the "specialty snack" of the Dark Moon City.
The merchants also ushered in the spring that only existed in the human world. They only needed to pay taxes and the protection fee of the Cloak Gang, then they could operate freely. They didn't have to consider the various "filial piety" and extortion in the past. Their enthusiasm was also greatly increased.
Chen Rui also saw a new shop selling the Shadow Empire's specialty products. Celine had become the heir of the Custer Family, and she gradually took over the power handed over by the patriarch, Croz. Under her operation, the Custer Family's actions had slowly begun. The first step of trading between the Dark Moon and the Shadow Empire had been successfully taken.
With the Custer Family as a card, the Dark Moon's purchase of food from the Shadow Empire would be very smooth. At least on the surface, Jía could already freely cope with the capital's food sanctions some time ago.
However, the food sanction was only one of the capital's means. If it was just a passive defense, then one day, the Dark Moon would be shattered and completely collapsed under this kind of slash, so they must find a way to counterattack.
After the incident of Town Moling, the implementation of the most important plan was getting closer and closer. If the overall plan was successful, Jía was likely to become the empire empress step by step and rule the Fallen Angel Empire to stand on equal footing with the other two empires.
The problem was that about two hundred years later, when the Demon Realm and the Human Realm had another large-scale war, the Fallen Angel Empire would definitely be unable to avoid participating. No matter which side won, it didn't seem to be a good result for him, a human, or even the "Prince of the Holy Empire on the ground". Moreover, his lifespan was at least ten thousand years, and similar troubles might follow …
As Chen Rui thought about it, he only felt a headache. However, he would cross the bridge when he came to it. Anyway, there were still two hundred years, so he would consider it at that time.
He led the little black horse all the way to the sheriff's house.
Since the human sheriff was in a coma for a long time, there were fewer and fewer visitors. It was not until the sheriff's lover, Athena, was appointed as the acting sheriff that many people came to visit the human's "illness", but they were all rejected by Athena. This was the fickleness of human nature and the fickleness of the world. It was the same in every dimension.
The sheriff's house covered a large area, but the location was relatively remote. Everyone in the Dark Moon City knew that this gloomy house had no guards or servants. There were people with ulterior motives who wanted to sneak into the house, but it was like a stone sinking into the sea, and there was no news anymore. It was said that this place was full of powerful magic circles set by Princess Royal's subordinate, Sir Gauss. No one dared to enter this place without permission from Madam Athena. In fact, compared with the real person who set up these magic circles, Sir Gauss could only regrettably be classified as an ant.
Chen Rui entered the house with ease. He turned two corners and easily came to the yard. If it was another person, perhaps he would enjoy the "intimate contact" of the Dragon Inscription or the Guardian Vine within three steps.
Walking into the yard, he saw Lomont saying something to Delia with a flattering smile. Dodo and Paglio who were gloating were beside him, but Athena was nowhere to be seen.
Seeing a "Great Demon" walking in with a horse instead of the imagined Athena, everyone looked surprised. Paglio reacted the fastest. He grinned and raised the glass, and the slime reflexively poured a full glass of wine.
"Look who's back?" Lomont also reacted. Before Chen Rui recovered his face, he had already walked over with a sneaky smile, "A trio-specialized mechanic master, the 10,000 years genius that shocked the Demon Realm? Damn it, you can't be the illegitimate child that the Demon God left in this world, right? "
Paglio felt the same way about this. However, he had been "honed" for a long time since he first met Chen Rui, so he was much more open-minded. Lomont's fuss was just like him back then. He just smiled mysteriously with the demeanor of the Dragons.
"Why do I hear a sour smell? When did 'envy' become synonymous with the Sloth Royal Family? " Chen Rui had restored his original face, "I say, Delia, are you sure this guy isn't a spy from your Envy Royal Family who sneaked into the Belphegor Royal Family?"
"Captain, I'm sure." Although the Silent Night Wetland battle had passed a long time ago, Delia was still used to calling Chen Rui captain. She replied in a serious tone with a faint smile in her eyes, "A stupid guy like him …"
Before Delia finished speaking, Lomont said with a sad face, "I'm also the son-in-law of the Envy Royal Family anyway …"
"Hmph, shameless guy!" Delia blushed, but she said to Paglio, "Dodo!"
The slime just realized that his master had returned, so he couldn't get a word in. When he saw Delia's greeting, he immediately turned into Lomont in a flaunting manner.
"Such a beast!" Dodo, who transformed into Lomont, took the opportunity to take a big gulp of wine and sighed to the sky, "Demon God! Open your omnipotent left eye that can charm all women and take care of your poor believer … You're even caught by Delia when you're flirting with a beauty! No, I can't be hung to death on a tree! I want the entire forest! "
"You'd better look for the entire forest. My tree doesn't welcome you." Delia looked at the dumbfounded Lomont with an ambiguous smile and gave him the back of her head, "Don't say that everything is in the past. With your 'rich' experience, you should know that women are very vengeful."
"She really is a beast!" Chen Rui showed a look of sudden realization, "Delia, don't worry. As the captain, I fully support your choice!"
"You're too vicious!" Lomont bared his fangs and wanted to step forward with intense body language to express the grief and indignation in his heart. This action caused the little black horse behind Chen Rui to misunderstand and show vigilance.
Due to feeling the strength of this enemy, the little black horse did not hesitate to transform into the form of Incubus. The horn on the top of its head flashed, and the mutated talent lightning power burst out. This transformation attracted everyone's attention. Lomont screamed and activated the speed talent of the Belphegor Royal Family, [Flash]. He actually dodged the lightning. It didn't mean that Lomont's speed had reached or exceeded the speed of light. This dodge was a reaction similar to thought. With the talent of [Flash], he avoided this powerful lightning in an instant. Even without [Analytical Eyes], it could be seen that Lomont's strength had made a great leap compared to before. He should have reached the Great Demon King level.
The little black horse did not continue to attack because Chen Rui had already told him in his consciousness that everyone here was his friend. Of course, the most important thing was that the little black horse was not Lomont's opponent at the moment. If it reached the Great Demon King level, Chen Rui didn't mind letting the forest madman have a lightning bath first.
"Incubus!" Delia was taken aback. Putting aside the strength of the Incubus, its temperament was extremely unyielding. It was one of the most difficult demonic beasts to tame. This Incubus Beast could emit lightning and transform. It was definitely a rare mutated bloodline.
Unexpectedly, it was as docile as a hellhound in front of Chen Rui. Chen Rui threw a fruit, and this Incubus Beast, which had returned to its dark horse form, jumped high and caught it in mid-air. Is this a horse … or a dog?
Lomont pointed his finger at Chen Rui, then he pointed at the still hostile Incubus Beast. He couldn't speak for a while. Jealousy, pure jealousy- It's too unfair. Leader must know witchcraft. Sir Lomont's luck was robbed by him!
Chen Rui was too lazy to argue with this guy, and he didn't look at Dodo who was smiling. His attention was all behind him. Another person walked into the yard. The familiar footsteps made him know who she was almost without looking back.
It was as if she knew him. Her appearance was not the most beautiful in the Demon Realm, but in his heart, she was the most beautiful.
When the slightly tired beautiful red eyes saw Chen Rui's back, they instantly shone with surprise. She happened to meet his gaze as he turned around.
She quickened her pace, ignoring the gaze of her friends in the yard, and the vigilant gaze of the little black horse behind him. She came to him and hugged him. At the same time he hugged her tightly.
"Athena, I'm back."
"En."
It was a very plain words, but it was full of happiness.
Even the little black horse was infected by this emotion, and it silently put away its hostility.
The two felt each other's heartbeat and body temperature, silently exchanging their thoughts after parting. They almost forgot the time, until …
"Delia, I'm back."
"Get lost!"
"…"
