2000 years ago, the poison dragon Paglio and the fairy dragon Rolla teamed up to defeat the crystal dragon Jacob and the blue dragon Ranieri to obtain the silver box. Then, Paglio plotted against Rolla to steal the treasure, but he was finally sealed by a mysterious powerhouse.
The root of the battle between the Demon Overlord level and even the powerhouses beyond the Demon Overlord level was the mysterious silver box.
Chen Rui opened the silver box twice in the Silent Night Wetland. As soon as the silver box was opened, the power of the Demon Realm royal family would be greatly suppressed, and their vitality would be devoured. Most importantly, when the fountain of vitality was opened for the first time, the vast and irresistible power of destruction that Chen Rui felt seemed to be the most original rule power in the universe.
Although the purity and level of Shura's breath were far weaker than the vast power felt in the silver box, the 2 should be from the same source.
Shura should be just the inner demon of the Alioth state. It already existed before Chen Rui touched the silver box. However, this inner demon could actually have this kind of origin power that far surpassed the Alioth state. There could only be one reason – After Chen Rui opened the silver box in the Silent Night Wetland, the strange energy that leaked out invaded his consciousness and merged with the inner demon, causing some kind of change. It could even be called evolution, and it had remained until now!
The mysterious silver box was still soaking in the Fountain of Vitality at the bottom of Mountain Xilang, but Paglio repeatedly warned that he had to at least reach the Demon Overlord level to be qualified to know this biggest secret. Before that, he must not act rashly.
Chen Rui exited the Super System and drank a bottle of spirit power potion. He didn't stay in the training ground for long just now, and he only had a short confrontation with Shura, but he felt more tired than 100 days of continuous training.
What surprised him was that due to the magical effect of the realm king fruit, a trace of the destructive breath released by Shura in the battle just now actually remained in the spiritual imprint. In other words, this aura had already been engraved in his memory. As long as he could understand its mysteries, he would be able to possess the most powerful Origin Energy!
However, this aura was ancient and mysterious. It seemed to be simple destruction, but in reality, it contained endless mysteries. It was very difficult to comprehend it. Fortunately, he had left it in his mind. As long as Chen Rui wanted to, he could comprehend it at any time. This was a great opportunity, and it was also the only way for him to truly subdue Shura in the future.
10 days had passed in the blink of an eye. In Kanita's expectation, "Charles" finally appeared in front of him. The space "travel" made the human's resolute face look a little tired, but his eyes were bright. The most reassuring thing for Kanita was that the human brought 3 million as promised.
Kanita, who got 3 million, felt a lot more assured in his heart. "Charles" claimed that everything went smoothly according to the plan, and the first profit was successfully obtained. However, time was precious, and he couldn't stay here. He just encouraged Samuel a few words and left in a hurry.
After another 10 days, Charles came again with an excited face and brought another 5 million. For Kanita, this was already a profitable deal. He had at least made a profit of 1 million. Although he was a little reluctant, he still returned the mortgaged legendary grade equipment to the human.
In Kanita's more than 100 years of experience, it was the first time that he made such a large amount of money so easily, and this big deal was just the beginning.
As the human said, the dark element breath on the black crystal coins was removed, but the money was real. It could definitely circulate normally, which made some of Kanita's original doubts disappear.
"The first step of starting has been successful. If I want to unfreeze the investment projects one by one, I need to add more investments later. I believe that you are a visionary collaborator, so you won't give up because of this short and meager income. If I want to get the return of the third phase, I must ensure that the funds continue to follow up. For the second step, the funds are still short of 50 million black crystal coins. This rate of return is 70%, and it will still be returned in 3 phases. For businessmen, time is money. I hope this fund can be in place as soon as possible. "
"50 million?" Kanita was taken aback. This fund was far beyond what he could afford. It seemed that he couldn't afford it by himself. Anyway, he had already gotten a net profit of 1 million black crystal coins now, and there would be a huge sum of 6 million coming in. At this time, if he recommended "Charles" to his father, not only he could conditionally seek mutual benefits, but it would also be a great contribution.
"It just so happens that my father has finished training a few days ago. I will take you to Red Spirit City now. I will guarantee you in front of my father, but the premise is that the 6 million in the third phase must be included in my second investment."
Kanita's calculation was very good. Anyway, he had already recovered his capital and made a small profit. The remaining profits would be used to make more money so that he could avoid risks. Now that the human was asking him for help, he could take this opportunity to raise conditions.
Chen Rui replied firmly, "This won't work. In order to honor your first investment, I have given you all the initial profit of the principal. The remaining 6 million will take 3 months to earn. These 50 million black crystal coins are hard investments. Not a single cent can be missing. "
"There is an old saying that goes, don't do things without benefits. I have dealt with merchants many times, and I believe that Your Excellency will not do anything that does not benefit you. The so-called concession is just for a greater benefit. To be able to use this money to earn the most important trust, Your Excellency should be more calculative than I am. Besides, 6 million is just a fraction for sir's grand plan. "
Chen Rui pondered for a moment, but he still insisted that the current hard investment of 50 million could not be less. However, he promised to give an additional 20% to Kanita when he returned the 6 million in the third phase. Kanita faintly tested the other party's bottom line. It seemed that it was really a big deal. Anyway, he earned another 1.2 million. Finally, he nodded contentedly.
In this way, Chen Rui and Kanita rode the mutant griffin mount and arrived at Red Spirit City at the fastest speed.
The scale of Red Spirit City was slightly smaller than Dark Moon City, but most of Dark Moon City was an empty shell left from the most prosperous period hundreds of years ago. There were not many families or buildings with real weight. Red Spirit City was much more prosperous, but compared with the Dark Shadow's capital, it could only be regarded as a medium-sized city that was worth seeing.
Contrary to the barrenness of the Dark Moon, the Red Spirit Estate was fertile, rich in food, and rich in magic stone mineral and forestry resources. As one of the richest estates of the Fallen Angel Empire, the position of Red Spirit Lord was definitely a lucrative position.
The Alvin Family had been operating in the Red Spirit Estate for thousands of years. They had a deep foundation which was far from comparable to Crown Prince Grimm who was temporarily "exiled" to the Dark Moon. Especially the current Red Spirit Lord, Josh, after the death of the Lord of Midnight Sun, he decisively chose to support the correct decision of Prince Obsidian, which made the development of the Red Spirit Estate smooth.
As the most important chess piece for Regent Obsidian to monitor and control the Dark Moon Estate, Josh also completed the task well. Over the years, no matter how hard Crown Prince Grimm or Jía tried, they could not change the deteriorating situation of the Dark Moon Estate.
Although there were some problems in Mountain Xilang a while ago, the two lifelines of the Dark Moon's economy and food were still firmly controlled by the Red Spirit in any case. They had already strangled the opponent's throat. It would depend on Obsidian's words to kill it.
Kanita took Chen Rui and rushed to the Lord's Mansion without stopping. He directly asked to see his father, Josh. Soon, Chen Rui met the biggest neighbor and enemy of the Dark Moon Estate.
Josh's appearance was a middle-aged man with a medium build. His face was cold and his eyes were like sharp knives. He had a kind of intimidating aura without being angry.
Race: Great Demon (mutated). Comprehensive Strength Assessment: A-. Physique: B +, Strength: B, Spirit: A-, Agility: B +.
Josh's human form was already the strength of the early stage of the Demon Emperor level. According to Athena, the Great Demon maintained the human form to reduce consumption and accumulate the power obtained from training. Once he transformed into the combat form, his combat power would greatly increase. The higher the level, the more so.
Without Paglio's converging combat power skills, Athena's human form was still the peak of the Demon King level, but once she transformed, she could reach the early stage of the Great Demon King level. Although Demon King and Great Demon King were only one word apart, the difference in strength was more than 10 times.
Before Chen Rui came to the Red Spirit, he had personally experienced Athena's "combat power" after transformation. It was really a lot stronger. Of course, it was on another "battlefield".
Therefore, when Josh transformed into the combat state, he might climb to the intermediate stage of the Demon Emperor. At that time, Chen Rui killed Sabrina, who was at the early stage of the Demon Emperor, when the other party's combat power was at its lowest point after being schemed against, and he almost failed. Now he was facing a powerhouse who had firmly mastered the Demon Emperor level and pseudo territory power. Even if Chen Rui's current strength had grown a lot compared to when he was in the Crystal Valley, there was still no possibility of winning in a head-on battle.
It was not only the difference in the strength of the major realm, but also the huge difference in "quality" between the middle level and the upper level.
Facing his father, Josh, Kanita had long lost his usual calmness. He showed considerable awe. After asking Josh to dismiss his servants, Kanita bowed and said Chen Rui's "identity" in the human world and his intentions.
Josh looked a little surprised. While listening, his eyes flickered. He examined Chen Rui as if he wanted to see through him.
Kanita just described the relevant process in detail, but he did not add his own subjective will because he knew that his father, Josh, had always been suspicious and would have his own judgment on this matter. If he said too much, it would cause unnecessary suspicion instead.
Josh began to think in his heart. His eyes never left Chen Rui. An invisible sense of oppression shrouded him. For Chen Rui, who had experienced Demon Overlord-level tests like Manu and Jacob, this kind of oppression was nothing. Moreover, during the [Refined Mind] moment with Shura, he had experienced even more terrifying scenes, so Chen Rui seemed calm and not flustered at all.
"Demons have an old saying, there is never reaping without sowing." Josh frowned slightly, turned his eyes to Kanita, and said coldly, "I'm very disappointed in you. You actually believe in a human's little trick. A mere 1 million black crystal coins can make you lose your usual calmness? You can't even see through this little trick? You can't even find an imp in the corner of the city. His deception is better than this guy! "
Kanita was sweating profusely. He lowered his head and did not dare to explain.
Chen Rui was mentally prepared for Josh's attitude. After all, he was an old guy who had lived for hundreds of years. His mind was definitely not simple. Otherwise, he would not have controlled the Dark Moon's lifeline for so many years.
"I'm also very disappointed in you, Sir Kanita." Chen Rui sighed, "You always told me how wise and decisive your father, sir lord, is. I didn't expect to see you in person. I have to admit that this meeting is a failure. I must change to a more reliable partner as soon as possible. "
"Your biggest failure is to choose me, Josh. Alvin, as the target of deception." Josh slowly stood up, and the murderous look in his eyes became more and more intense. "You have no chance to change any so-called partner. Your head will be my wine container!"
The violent elemental power was like a huge wave that instantly wrapped Chen Rui. The Demon Emperor-level power was no trivial matter. Although the power had been compressed, the entire hall still began to tremble slightly. Kanita's face was pale. I still want to make a great contribution this time, but I didn't expect such a result.
"Short-sighted Demons!"
Despite the strong pressure, Chen Rui unexpectedly showed a strong attitude. For him who had experienced the surfy sea training, this kind of "huge wave" oppression was easier to deal with. He just slightly changed the power in his body to minimize the pressure from Josh. Even so, the Demon Emperor-level power still made him feel extremely strenuous.
In Kanita's eyes, this human can actually compete with his father's Demon Emperor-level aura, and they are equally matched. No wonder Samuel is so respectful.
"Have you seen the prosperity of the human world? Do you know what the top business family of the Holy Empire represents? Just a day's liquidity can buy a few small estates like yours! " Chen Rui's body faintly exuded a faint breath. Although it couldn't be compared with Josh's huge wave power, the almost pure to the extreme destructive power made Josh secretly startled. This human's power is by no means the early stage of the Great Demon King on the surface. Is he also a Demon Emperor-level powerhouse?
"Not to mention a mere million or ten million, even if it's hundreds of millions or billions, my Ktribut Family will not blink!" Chen Rui's tone seemed to be greatly insulted, "If it weren't for the urgent need for funds to start and unfreeze to brew the power to fight back, as the next patriarch of the Ktribut Family, why would I come to the Demon Realm for this little money!"
Josh snorted coldly, "No matter how attractive your reason is, it is useless. Humans and Demons are originally mortal enemies. Since you have the courage to come here, you should have the awareness of death!"
"If it is the holy war period 200 years later, my purpose of coming to the enemy's rear may be to deceive or destroy, but now … don't you think this sentence is ridiculous? As far as I know, even the regent of your empire has a trustworthy human friend! "
"Even if you are right, so what? The rule of the Demon Realm is that the strong are respected. I don't need to explain any reason to you if I kill you. " Josh's gaze became colder and colder. His body was burning with a light blue flame. The temperature in the room suddenly dropped to an extremely low level. Kanita, who was weaker, had begun to tremble.
"You can't kill me, Demons!" Chen Rui sighed, "And you don't know how much benefit you have given up! By then, you will regret it without me taking the initiative to retaliate! "
Josh was unmoved. He raised his index finger, and an imprint wrapped in a blue flame jumped out of his fingertip. The entire room began to flicker with crystal light. The seemingly beautiful crystal light was filled with an extremely dangerous breath.
Even Kanita could see that his father's murderous intent was by no means a bluff.
