It was the fifth time.
He did not know what method Lomont had used to induce the spiritual power of the Evil Eye's nest. In a sense, this spiritual power was even greater than what Chen Rui had encountered before. However, it was not dangerous to people other than Lomont. It was as if there was a whirlpool in his left eye that sucked in all the spiritual power.
For Lomont, this was the beginning of a nightmare. Every time, it would bring unimaginable pain. He could neither live nor die. This was a battle with himself. Only by defeating himself and surpassing himself could he truly break out of the cocoon.
Chen Rui could understand this pain very well. He had encountered similar experiences many times in the Heart Refining Realm, especially during that two-month slumber. He did not know how many times he had been on the verge of collapse and death.
If it were not for Chen Rui's assistance with strength and potions, Lomont would have completely collapsed during the third time. However, it was a fluke that he could be saved that time. In this kind of training, external forces could play a minimal role. The most important thing was to rely on oneself.
Otherwise, even with the resurrection potion, he would only be saved as a walking corpse with a mental breakdown.
Lomont did not even have the strength to roll around or scream. His body, which was covered in cold sweat, was twitching involuntarily. The dried bloodstain in his left eye began to overflow with bright red liquid again. He clenched his teeth, and his throat gritted out one or two names from time to time. This was the self-suggestion that supported his will, and it was also his biggest and final pillar of support.
Delia's name was the most. There were also the names of Lomont's father and a few names that he did not know. Chen Rui's and Athena's names were also impressively among them.
Chen Rui clenched his fists. This was a partner. Unfortunately, all he could do now was to watch.
When he was in a coma for two months, this guy was more or less in the same mood.
The bloodstain on the ground gradually expanded. It was hard to believe that so much blood was seeping from a closed eye. If it was an ordinary human, he would have died from excessive blood loss. Lomont's skin once again distorted horribly, as if something was wriggling inside. Some of the swollen parts even had clear blood vessels and cracks, as if they could burst at any time. Chen Rui knew that it was a critical moment. Previously, Lomont almost exploded at this step. He quickly waited and prepared to rescue him.
Lomont's body trembled more and more violently. "Bang! Bang! Bang! " There was a dull explosion, and he suddenly became a bloody man. This had never happened before. It had never happened before. Chen Rui was shocked. Just as he was about to try to rescue him, the blood suddenly turned into a bloody mist and enveloped Lomont.
The bloody mist gradually formed a strange image. It should be the form of a demonic beast, but the image was very blurry. As time passed, the image began to become clearer.
Originally, this unprecedented change should be a sign of success, but Lomont's body seemed to be unable to support the completion of the image. It began to wither at a speed visible to the naked eye, like a mummy.
Chen Rui felt that Lomont's life force was rapidly weakening. In the blink of an eye, it was already extremely weak. The demonic beast's image that was gradually becoming clearer also began to collapse. It was clearly a sign of death. Chen Rui made a prompt decision. He exchanged a bottle of resurrection potion and directly sprinkled it on Lomont's withered body. The collapsed vitality of the "mummy" suddenly became stronger. Its body and vitality were also recovering step by step. It seemed that this move was a fluke, and Lomont was pulled back from the line of death.
The image of the demonic beast condensed by the bloody mist was already quite clear. It was a demonic beast that looked like a mantis. Its front claws were like two sharp knives.
The "Magic Gladiator" of the "Mantis" constellation?
While Chen Rui was stunned, the image only lasted for a moment before it dissipated in the bloody mist. The bloody mist began to quickly retract into Lomont's left eye.
After a long time, the closed eyes slowly opened, and the pupil of the left eye emitted a strange red light. Even Chen Rui had a feeling that his soul was shaken the moment they looked at each other.
When Chen Rui was concentrating his mind and channeling his strength to defend, Lomont's pupil had returned to normal. Although he looked exhausted, his eyes were flashing with ecstasy and excitement.
Chen Rui was overjoyed, "You succeeded?"
"Hehe, of course, don't you know who I am? Now the [Eye of Evil] already has the power to destroy evil, but I still need time to gradually familiarize myself with this new power, "Lomont's eyes fell on the empty bottle in his hand, and he was slightly shocked," Just now … was it resurrection potion? "
Chen Rui showed a look of pity, "Yeah, even if there is the grand master's inheritance, it is very difficult to get it. It was wasted on you, an idiot."
Although he didn't understand what an idiot meant, Lomont could hear that it was by no means a compliment. He immediately showed a look of pity, "The resurrection potion can only be used once in a lifetime. You actually took away my precious first time. If Delia knew, she would be sad …"
Chen Rui's forehead was blue with veins popping out, "If you continue to be disgusting, I will fill your stomach with aphrodisiac and throw you into a bunch of perverts who like men."
Lomont shuddered, "Captain … this move is too ruthless. You are the real demon."
"Stop talking. Drink the recovery potion, eat something, and have a good rest for a while. Then we will go to capture the evil eye. Isabella gave me a time limit of 3 days. If we are fast, we may be able to make it. "
Lomont didn't speak again and immediately began to recover his strength. This time, he successfully escaped from death and consumed a bottle of the most precious potion that was enough to shake the Demon Realm. However, he didn't say a word of thanks to Chen Rui. He could just keep these things in his heart. Although this guy seemed to be extroverted and almost shameless, he was actually not good at expressing his true feelings. Besides, some words were unnecessary between partners.
Originally, Lomont's breakthrough almost exhausted all his strength, but the resurrection potion of the highest level was extraordinary. Coupled with the newly acquired power to destroy evil, his current state was quite good. It was just that his spirit was too exhausted before. After resting for a few hours, he finally recovered most of it.
Next, he needed to capture and subdue an evil eye that was not lower than his own level. If there was no accident, this evil eye would turn into a spirit body mode and become the companion beast of [The Eye of Evil] to accompany Lomont for a lifetime. The 2 were contract objects, sharing power, and could evolve together. When [The Eye of Evil] comprehended the next step of [The Eye of Evil], it could also merge with the companion beast and manipulate evil eyes that were lower than the strength of the companion beast. The number of manipulations was proportional to the strength.
Although Lomont comprehended the power of destroy evil, his overall strength still stayed at the early stage of the Great Demon King. However, after obtaining the power of destroy evil, the speed of breaking through the small realm should be very fast. As for the Demon Emperor, the key lay in the power of territory. It was still too early.
It was not easy to capture a Great Demon King in the evil eye's lair because this kind of gregarious demonic beast would form a nest if provoked. According to Lomont, there was also a Demon Emperor-level evil eye tyrant here.
Although [The Eye of Evil] could produce the breath of the evil eye and coexist peacefully with it, this was in the absence of hostility. Once the hostility was sensed by the sensitive evil eye, then even [The Eye of Evil] couldn't avoid the attack.
For example, if the toothpick bird wanted to kill the crocodile, would the crocodile let it forage in its mouth? It would have been chewed into pieces with its hair and bones.
In this case, Chen Rui and Lomont could only capture the prey as fast as possible and then quickly evacuate. Otherwise, if they were detected by the evil eye tyrant, even escaping would be a problem.
Lomont's advantage was that he would not be attacked by the evil eye before his hostility was exposed. Therefore, the plan decided by the two was that Chen Rui, who had been branded as an "intruder", would be the bait to attract the firepower. Lomont would wait for the opportunity to capture a Great Demon King-level evil eye.
In this way, the previously missing "prey" entered the sight of the evil eyes again. There was no need for Chen Rui to deliberately emit any power of spiritual communication. Those extremely vengeful evil eyes floated toward him, and they even summoned a few companions. Chen Rui avoided the long-range ray attack while releasing gluttonous vines to interfere and attract the evil eyes.
The evil eyes were very angry at the obvious provocation of this cunning prey, and they chased after him.
If the lights were bright now, one could see a high-speed turning figure followed by a string of floating evil eyes. The scene was quite funny. However, Chen Rui himself didn't feel funny. Although the speed of the evil eyes was a shortcoming, his movement couldn't be faster than his spirit power. So far, there were 3 rays and 1 [Spirit Shock]. Fortunately, 2 of the rays were from the Demon King-level evil eyes. He was also wearing a leather armor with strong elemental resistance, so it wasn't a big deal. It was just that the evil eye's talent to ignore defense was too overpowered. The [Spirit Shock] once again penetrated his spirit power defense, almost making him fall.
Chen Rui felt that he was becoming more and more like a meat shield that pulled and resisted monsters in an instance dungeon. He attracted all the enemies' hatred. The problem was that there was no healer to help him heal, and there were no teammates with high damage output to kill the monsters. He didn't know if Lomont saw the target and was ready to defeat the enemy in one hit. The evil eyes' talent was too terrifying, and there were many of them. If this continued, when the boss, tyrant arrived, the poor duo would definitely be wiped out.
Lomont followed behind the group of evil eyes. The breath of [Eye of Evil] that he was currently exuding was a kind of replenishment for the evil eyes' spirit power consumption, so the evil eyes habitually didn't show hostility to him. However, he only had one chance. Once he missed, he could only run away like sir leader.
Lomont had already targeted a middle-stage Great Demon King's evil eye at the back of the large team. Generally speaking, the stronger the demonic beast as a companion spirit, the better it was because the half-spirit shared power with him. This meant that his power would increase slower than normal in the future. Of course, his power would be stronger.
Just as the evil eyes fired rays one after another and focused on chasing Chen Rui, Lomont finally made a move. The [Wind Mastery] and [Flash] bloodline talent were activated at the same time. The Great Demon King level evil eye's body suddenly froze, and it was bound by the wind element. Almost at the same time, Lomont's figure had appeared behind the evil eye, and he punched the head with the giant eye.
The evil eye's spirit power had reached the peak of the Great Demon King level. It was keenly aware of the danger, but it was too late to dodge. It was hit by Lomont's punch.
However, Lomont's punch stopped about 10 centimeters away from the evil eye because there was already a thin shield in front of the evil eye. This lightning-like punch only shook the shield, but it couldn't break through.
"Magic shield? Damn mutated talent! "Lomont didn't expect that the prey that he had locked on for so long actually had such a mutated talent. Many evil eyes had already felt the abnormality behind them, and they began to turn their heads. The evil eye that was attacked immediately told Lomont's behavior in a special spiritual communication, and the evil eyes floated back angrily.
Lomont was startled and quickly increased his power output, but this magic shield was created by the mutated talent of the evil eye. Its spirit power was already very strong, so Lomont couldn't break through it in a hurry. Instead, a few floating evil eyes began to launch ray attacks at him.
Lomont hurriedly dodged. The Demon Realm's strongest speed talent, [Flash], really deserved its reputation. None of those rays could hit him. Lomont made up his mind and didn't give up on the mutated evil eye. Instead, he launched a fierce attack against the rays and spirit impact. This evil eye has a mutated talent. If I can subdue it as a companion beast, it will also greatly improve my combat power.
Just as the evil eye's shield was about to collapse, a figure suddenly appeared beside him.
"Leader?" Although Lomont was taken aback, there were only him and Chen Rui in the underground, so he was not particularly nervous.
"Hurry up!" Chen Rui's voice had a hint of anxiety.
"Wait! I'm about to catch this evil eye … "
"Catch my ass, the evil eye tyrant is coming!" Chen Rui's words made Lomont shudder. Without hesitation, he grabbed Chen Rui's arm with his backhand, activated [Flash] talent at full speed, and fled backward.
"It's over. The evil eye is the most vengeful. If I miss this time, I will be their enemy when I come in again." As Lomont spoke, his speed was not slow at all. Gradually, he pulled the evil eye behind him away.
The evil eye tyrant was a Demon Emperor-level evil eye. Even the average Demon Overlord powerhouse was not willing to provoke it easily. With their current strength, they could only escape, not to mention there was such a large group of evil eye minions.
"It's all your fault. You haven't even caught one after watching for a long time!" Chen Rui had a feeling of exasperation. I've pulled the aggro for so long, but I haven't even killed a small monster here.
"How would I know that it has the ability to mutate …" Lomont knew that he was in the wrong, so he said with a bitter face, "Why don't we take a detour and find an early stage of Great Demon King to capture?"
At this time, they had almost pulled the group of evil eyes behind them to a safe distance. Chen Rui suddenly trembled and stopped. As Lomont was about to ask, the [Eye of Evil] suddenly felt a terrifying mental oppression coming from behind. His face suddenly changed.
Chen Rui's < Analytical Eyes > showed: Race: Evil Eye (mutated). Comprehensive Strength: A-.
Physique: B +, Strength: B +, Spirit: A +, Agility: B
Demon Emperor-level evil eye … tyrant!
His Agility attribute is only B, how can he catch up?
At this moment, the information behind instantly appeared in front. Chen Rui and Lomont felt this change at the same time, and they were both taken aback: Teleportation!
An evil eye tyrant with a mutated talent [Teleportation]! Now even escaping is a problem!
