Chen Rui thought for a while, took the bottle, raised his head, and drank all of it. The men all looked like they were watching a good show.
"It tastes good, but the aftereffect is not good." Chen Rui stood for a moment, sat down, took out a bottle of wine from the "space ring" and handed it to the woman, "Try this purple berry wine. This was given to me by my brother. It is said to be a specialty of the Shadow Empire."
The green-haired woman was a little surprised, but she still took it. She didn't need anything to open the wine. She bit the bottle cap directly with her white jade-like teeth. She took a sniff and looked happy. She took a big gulp and handed it to Chen Rui. Chen Rui took it without hesitation, took a few sips, took out another bottle, and handed it to her.
The expressions of those guys who were watching a good show were petrified as if they saw something incredible.
In fact, it was not that Chen Rui didn't feel the abnormality just now. After taking the wine bottle handed over by the woman for the first time, the Super System had already sent a prompt of "Found poisonous energy automatically absorbed". However, even the poison dragon Paglio couldn't poison Chen Rui. This level of poison naturally didn't work. It only increased a small amount of aura.
The reason why Chen Rui didn't refuse the woman at the beginning was not because of her appearance, but the prompt in the [Analytical Eyes]: Race: Dragons (emerald dragon); Comprehensive Strength Assessment: Unable to judge!
I actually met another Demon Overlord-level powerhouse so soon at this palace welcome ball! Moreover, it's even a Dragons!
The emerald dragon was a mutated green dragon with powerful toxicity. It was good at water magic, but in terms of toxicity alone, it was still not as good as the most poisonous poison dragon.
The bottle that the woman first gave to Chen Rui was obviously a little "ingredient". She wanted to embarrass this unfamiliar guy, but the other party was not affected at all. On the second time, it was no longer a teasing poison, but a very strong poison. However, Chen Rui still drank it directly without showing any abnormality.
"You're not strong enough, but your ability is a bit interesting." The woman nodded, picked up a plate of fruits on the table and handed it to him, "Try this."
Chen Rui took one and took a bite. The expression on his face suddenly became a little twisted. This fruit was not poisonous, but it tasted bitter and spicy. He felt a chill go straight to his head, and he couldn't help but shiver.
This caused the woman to reveal a malicious smile. Suddenly, her face turned cold. "What you just ate was my most expensive sobering food. Now, hand over all the valuables in your spatial ring! Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite! "
Your sister's exclusive food! And the most expensive?
"Is this considered a robbery?"
"Of course!" This word made the beauty's eyes light up.
The Dragons were all professional robbers who only cared about money!
To do such a thing at a palace ball!
But then again, Paglio was almost the same. When he was addicted, he couldn't care less about the principle of "rabbits don't eat the grass near their nest". He went to the Dark Moon several times, but unfortunately, there was nothing that caught his eye in that poor place.
At this moment, Isabella's voice sounded, "Charles, so you are here."
When the woman saw Isabella, she frowned, "Do you know each other?"
"Of course, Charles is a new trustworthy friend that I have made. I am going to introduce him to you." Isabella said with a smile, "Charles, this is the best friend I told you about, Krobelus."
It turns out that this emerald dragon's "mother" is Krobelus. No wonder even Nero doesn't dare to provoke her.
Isabella smiled and said, "What were you talking about just now? You seem to be having a good conversation?"
Seeing Krobelus' threatening expression, Chen Rui smiled, "I lost a bet to Ms. Krobelus just now, so I'm willing to accept my loss. This is my bet. Miss, please accept it."
Krobelus looked at the box handed over by Chen Rui in surprise. She opened it and saw a fist-sized red gem inside. It exuded a magnificent luster, and it seemed to contain a strange power.
To be honest, although this gem was big, it seemed a bit tacky like a nouveau riche. However, for the Dragons' appreciation of property, "big" and "shiny" were important keywords, so Krobelus's eyes suddenly widened. Her light green pupils were filled with the red light of the gem.
Even among her treasures, this gemstone was quite big and bright — it was of the highest quality!
"Um … Charles, you are very good." Sure enough, under the bribery of property, the Dragons immediately changed their faces. Their smiling faces didn't look like the face of robbery just now.
"Charles, I also want to bet with you." Isabella's eyes fell on the gem, and she said coquettishly. Her seductive tone almost made people feel numb.
"Uh … Inni, have you forgotten that I just lost a string of sea blue beads to you the day before yesterday?" Chen Rui smiled, "I have nothing to lose now."
Isabella heard that he would give the string of beads after the matter, and her smile became more charming, "Look at my memory. It's all because of a little troublesome matter just now. I even forgot about this."
"Troublesome matter?" Chen Rui asked with concern, "Is it okay? Do you need my help?"
"It's just a little thing that happened in a remote estate. It's not a big problem." Isabella answered casually and changed the topic, "Betty, it's rare to hear you praise a new friend like this, and he is even a man."
"Betty" was Krobelus' nickname. In the heart of the emerald dragon beauty, gender didn't matter. The key was the treasure. This guy took the initiative to offer valuable treasures, so he was really sensible. She immediately nodded in agreement.
"Charles, Betty is the most beautiful woman in the capital. She is much better than me, but she has always had high standards and doesn't like ordinary men. It's rare that she has a good impression of you now. This is your chance." Isabella looked enthusiastic as if she was trying to pull strings.
In terms of appearance, Krobelus is indeed a rare beauty, but as a beauty, whether it is eating and drinking or changing her face to rob, it can only be described as weird … No wonder no one dares to approach this area, and no one dares to ask her to dance. They probably came with a lot of money and ran back naked.
"Ms. Krobelus is powerful. I'm still far from it now, so I don't dare to have this extravagant hope." Chen Rui shook his head quickly. Maybe only a weirdo like Paglio can have the same bad taste with this tough girl.
"No matter how strong a woman is, she is just a woman." Isabella sighed. Her expression gave people a feeling of pity. Her eyes wandered as if hinting at something.
"What are you talking about?" Ms. Krobelus, the center of the topic, had just woken up from the intoxication of the treasure. She didn't know what they were talking about just now.
Isabella held Krobelus' hand intimately, "I'm saying that our lonely Ms. Betty needs a lover, and Charles is the most suitable candidate."
"That won't do! There is only one man in my heart. I don't want a lover! " Krobelus shook her head firmly and said to Chen Rui righteously, "Don't think that little gem can move me. Put away your little intention!"
Although she said so, the "little" gem was held tightly by her. Even if a man wanted to "back out", he couldn't take it back.
Seeing Miss Emerald's firm expression of "rather die than return", Chen Rui was secretly sweating, "Ms. Krobelus misunderstood. It's just Isabella's joke. The gem is the bet that I lost to you. How can I take it back?"
Krobelus looked a little better. Isabella shook her head disapprovingly, "Betty, you are too stubborn. Isn't the guy named Ranieri dead? And it has been so long … "
Ranieri's name fell into Chen Rui's ears inadvertently. At first, he didn't feel anything. Suddenly, he thought of something, and his hair suddenly stood up.
The name Ranieri sounded very ordinary. It was just like the Demon Realm with the name "Arthur". There were thousands if not tens of thousands. If Chen Rui didn't know Krobelus' race, he really wouldn't care.
However, this beauty in front of me is an emerald Dragons, then her man- 1. Ranieri (most likely a dragon); 2. He has been dead for a long time; Could it be …
In order to confirm, Chen Rui asked tentatively, "Please forgive me for being presumptuous, the gentleman named Ranieri …"
"Ranieri was killed!" Krobelus gritted her teeth, and her eyes emitted a real murderous aura. It was completely different from the pretense when she was robbing previously. "Although it has been many years and the enemy is very powerful, I always remember this hatred. I must find that enemy and avenge him!"
Chen Rui's heart thumped. He was almost certain that this Ranieri was the blue dragon who was killed in the battle with the poison dragon Paglio for the mysterious silver box. Initially, he wanted Paglio to poach her with some seduction tactics, but now he didn't dare to have this idea.
The hatred of killing my husband! Now the poison dragon's seal has not been unlocked, and his power has only returned to the Demon Emperor realm. If I really face Krobelus, I'm afraid I will be made into a roasted dragon.
Judging from Krobelus' performance, the hatred still hasn't faded after 2000 years. This is an indissoluble hatred.
Chen Rui thought about it and said, "I'm sorry for mentioning miss' sad past. If miss doesn't mind that my power is meager, I will help you by then."
"This enemy is very strong. Your power is too weak," Krobelus said bluntly, "But your [Poison Controlling Technique] should be useful. Let's talk about it by then."
Of course, Miss Emerald Long didn't know that this guy's so-called help was nothing more than shouting "Friend, I'll help you" and secretly stabbing his friend in the back.
"I didn't expect Betty and Charles to hit it off." Isabella smiled and said, "Why don't we find a time tomorrow to go out and relax? I heard that there seems to be a rainbow in the Rainbow Valley area recently. I don't know if I can have the luck to see the real Rainbow Valley? "
Chen Rui's heart moved. The requiem fruit needed to save the Earth Elemental King in the underground world of Mountain Xilang had not been found, and it wasn't long before the one-year deadline. If the requiem fruit couldn't be used to repair the earth elemental heart after the deadline, then the Earth Elemental King and the elemental heart would really die.
The intersection between Earth Elemental King Moore and Chen Rui was just the Glorfin incident in the underground world of Mountain Xilang. Logically, now that Athena had fully recovered and Glorfin had disappeared, in a sense, the Earth Elemental King had lost his value. Even if Chen Rui didn't care about it, it wouldn't be a problem.
However, Chen Rui wouldn't do this because Moore was his true friend. Although his saving of the underground earth elementals was enough to offset Moore's kindness of helping Athena, a friend was still a friend.
The requiem fruit matter had always been hanging in Chen Rui's mind. He had never forgotten it. Even during the Dark Shadow Capital's mechanic contest, he once asked Catherine the Great for the requiem fruit in public. Unfortunately, the Shadow Empire didn't have such a rare fruit.
He remembered that Master Xingxing once said that there was a Rainbow Valley under the jurisdiction of the Fallen Angel Capital. Every time a rainbow appeared there, the valley would appear. When the rainbow disappeared, the valley would disappear again. Someone once mistakenly entered the valley and found the requiem fruit growing there, but before he could pick it, he was teleported dozens of kilometers away.
There was no fixed time for the appearance of the Rainbow Valley. Sometimes it was a few months, sometimes it was a few years, and sometimes it was a few hundred years. Now hearing Isabella said that there were signs of rainbows in the Rainbow Valley recently, Chen Rui, who originally wanted to explore, was even more determined.
Krobelus seemed to recall something and frowned, "I once passed by the Rainbow Valley and felt an unusual dangerous breath there. Inni, don't go to that place."
Chen Rui was secretly surprised. Even a powerhouse like Krobelus felt danger. It seemed that the Rainbow Valley was not simple, but for the requiem fruit, this trip was imperative. However, if he wanted to go to the Rainbow Valley, he would definitely go alone. It was impossible to bring Isabella or Krobelus.
"Inni, you should know that my situation is urgent. I will leave the capital in these two days, and it will take at least half a month to return." Chen Rui showed an apologetic expression, "Let's wait for next time. I will definitely accompany the two beautiful ladies to go out and have a good time. I will never refuse."
"I don't want to go out with men … Uh, wait!" Krobelus suddenly thought of something again. She shook the gem in her hand, "It's okay to go out and have fun. As the price, you must hand over what you have … Uh … give me a presentable gift."
Female robber.
Typical Dragons' greed.
Chen Rui secretly despised the integrity of this emerald female dragon, but he still maintained a graceful smile on his face, "Don't worry, I will definitely satisfy the lady."
Isabella nodded, "Okay, that's a deal. I also need to deal with some small matters these 2 days."
In fact, this "small matter" was something that happened in the Dark Moon.
The human Sheriff Chen Rui, who had been "in a coma" due to the evil voodoo cast by Isabella, actually woke up.
