Night fell. Under the cold moonlight, a huge black shadow rose silently from the outer courtyard of the palace and flew out of the city.
Taking a plane and taking a train were really two different feelings. The wyvern's flying speed was faster than expected. It didn't take too long to reach the blue lake.
Paglio lay on a piece of grass by the lake, playing with the exquisite version of Solitaire Solitaire that Chen Rui gave him last time out of boredom. In his own words, this damn lake had been sleeping for more than two thousand years. If it wasn't necessary, he didn't want to enter the water again.
The fast flying black shadow caught Paglio's attention. When he saw that it was a wyvern, he sneered disdainfully. Although wyverns were quite powerful and had poison in their bodies, even ordinary dragons had to be wary of them, the poison dragon was different. The poison attack that wyverns relied on was useless in front of the poison dragon. Just comparing the toxicity, the poison dragon could definitely make the wyverns' intestines rot.
However, there seemed to be a person on the wyvern. Dragon cavalry? No, to be precise, it should be a sub-dragon cavalry or a wyvern cavalry. For Dragons, that kind of sub-dragon was not worthy of the noble word "dragon".
At this time, he heard a familiar voice coming from the wyvern, "Paglio, where are you?"
"Who!" Paglio had a seal on him, so he didn't want to cause trouble. He initially wanted to hide, but when he heard someone calling his name, he suddenly became vigilant. He secretly channeled his power and was ready to go.
The other party noticed his position and flew over while saying, "Paglio. Sandro Achilles, your most important partner is here. You promised to give him all the treasures in the Silent Night Wetland!"
"No way! You're an increasingly greedy human! "Paglio scolded with a smile and retracted his power.
Although the poison dragon didn't turn into a dragon, the wyvern instinctively felt the horror of the other party. It showed fear after landing.
Chen Rui jumped down and patted the wyvern's neck, "Mengda, don't be afraid. He's a friend. Wait for me over there. "
The wyvern flapped its wings and flew far away. Paglio revealed a look of surprise. "Although this lowly wyvern has low intelligence, it still has some strength. How can you control it so easily? Could it be that the Great Grandmaster's inheritance has changed? "
"You guessed it." Chen Rui praised Poison Dragon for being smart. "After accidentally absorbing the power of two vine stones, I gained the beast-taming ability, but this ability requires the energy of some special materials. If you have it, don't be reluctant to take it out."
"Hmph, why does good luck always fall on a greedy guy like you?" Paglio glared at him with jealousy. "I've been sealed for two thousand years. How could I have any treasure on me? Vine stone is nothing. If it is this kind of magic material, I have more good things in the treasure in the Silent Night Wetland. It depends on whether you have the ability to get it. "
"Really?" Chen Rui seemed to see a huge amount of aura, and his eyes lit up. "To tell you the truth, that wyvern came from the Silent Night Wetland. I spent a lot of effort to get it for the future. My current strength is far from enough. Fortunately, I have wyvern. I can come to the blue lake every day to find you for special training. "
"Wyvern from the Silent Night Wetland? That's thoughtful of you! " Paglio didn't know that his words were a little fake. He looked happy, "There are indeed many rare materials and minerals in my treasure. If you need them, I can give them all to you. The stronger you are, the more secure I am. However, don't think all demonic beasts are too simple. If the wyvern isn't tamed, it won't be so easy for you to communicate with them. Now, let's seize the time for special training. "
"Sneak attack again! Despicable Dragons! "
"My reaction is a lot faster this time, but it's not enough!"
"…"
The painful masochistic training continued. Correspondingly, the mastery of Star Power and the steady increase of Experience Value were correspondingly.
It was already midnight when he returned to the lab. The exhausted Chen Rui hurriedly took a shower and fell asleep. He didn't wake up until noon the next day.
When Chen Rui woke up, he felt energetic. Due to the characteristics of [Astral Form], all the injuries in the special training had recovered. Only then did he remember Jía's instructions. He hurriedly washed up and went to the palace council hall.
When he came to the council hall, it might be because it was too late. Old Gauss, whom Jía mentioned yesterday, wasn't there. Instead, Princess Royal was sitting at the table and reading documents.
"Take a look at all these documents, then extract the important parts and write them in the estate log. If you can, add a few personal opinions." Jía said without raising her head.
Chen Rui quickly took the documents and log book and began to get busy. This work wasn't difficult, and there weren't many major events that happened in the estate. For example, yesterday's Sky Battle and Aldas's Master Challenge a while ago were included. Chen Rui's university writing skills weren't for nothing. He quickly summarized those trivial matters and expressed them in a very concise writing style.
"Good job." Jía took the completed notebook and glanced at him, "Next time, come earlier. Old Gauss has gone out today."
Chen Rui also felt embarrassed. He was late on the first day of work, and he was caught by the boss.
"It's like this, Princess Royal." Chen Rui thought about it and decided to find an excuse to confess to Jía about going out at night. If you always walk by the river, you will get your shoes wet. After all, the palace guards weren't incompetent. If they noticed the unusual movements in the lab at night, it would make Jía suspicious.
After listening to Chen Rui's explanation, Jía frowned, "You rode the wyvern out late at night to practice beast-taming?"
"Yes," Chen Rui nodded. "I absorbed the vine stone sent by Princess Royal last night. My beast-taming ability has been stabilized and enhanced to a certain extent, but I don't want to expose this ability, so I went out to practice late at night to avoid being discovered."
"It's really not easy for you to attract too much attention at the moment." Jía originally hoped that he would always hide behind the scenes and become a secret weapon. "Since this is the case, you will come to the council hall every afternoon and rest as much as possible in the morning."
The boss is not bad, but it's a pity that he didn't get a raise. Chen Rui added, "I had a good communication with the wyverns in a quiet place last night. I learned that they originally lived in the Silent Night Wetland. There is a large group of them. These two were accidentally caught by demonic beast hunters when they went out. If there is a chance in the future, I want to go to the Silent Night Wetland to explore the situation. "
Demonic beast hunter was a profession that specialized in capturing or killing demonic beasts for a living. It also had high requirements for one's own strength. The two wyverns were indeed caught like this.
Jía's eyes suddenly lit up, and she was moved, "Are you looking for their group, then …"
If Chen Rui could successfully absorb this large wyvern group, then Dark Moon City could have a powerful air force that could even compete with the Obsidian Dragon Cavalry Legion. Jía couldn't help but be moved by this.
"This is just an idea," Chen Rui saw that Jía's thoughts really turned to this line, so he quickly explained, "Wild wyverns are not like the two tamed ones. They are difficult to communicate with and extremely aggressive. I just have such a long-term plan. At present, I should try to master the beast-taming skill as much as possible. "
The trip to the Silent Night Wetland was in Chen Rui's plan. The real purpose was the poison dragon's treasure. Of course, it would be better if he could abduct a group of wyverns along the way, then he would be able to face the beautiful boss and little loli. Now that he mentioned it to Jía in advance, he could naturally go to the Silent Night Wetland.
Jía calmed down and began to think about the feasibility of this plan, "The Silent Night Wetland is west of the Red Spirit Estate and north of the Dark Moon Estate. It spans the two empires of the Fallen Angel Estate and the Dark Shadow Empire. There are a large number of very powerful demonic beasts there, and it is extremely dangerous. With your current strength, you can't go there at all. I will try my best to satisfy the materials you need. It's just that I'm short of resources now, so the conditions I can provide are limited. Mountain Xilang was originally a very important mineral and economic source, but because it has been troubled by the underground creatures and bandits over the years, the production has been greatly reduced, making the Dark Moon's financial situation even worse. "
Chen Rui hesitated for a while and asked, "Princess Royal, please forgive me for asking directly. You're working hard to manage the Dark Moon Estate. Do you still have the intention to overthrow Obsidian and regain the throne?"
"The purpose of this question, does it mean that you already have a plan? If so, then let me tell you. "Jía's beautiful eyes narrowed, but the light in them was even more terrifying," This is my father's lifelong wish. He still couldn't forget it before he died, so I must do my best to complete it. I will never give in to the capital, even if I have to break into pieces. "
Jía's expression was extremely determined, but Chen Rui saw the faint helplessness and sadness behind her back. This 23-year-old beautiful woman carried too much burden, but she had to continue to carry it. No matter which world or which plane, it was the same. Where there were people, there would be underworld. People in the underworld couldn't help themselves.
The situation of the Demon Realm was like a game of chess. Be it the Dark Moon Estate or the 3 empires, they were all in the chessboard. Chen Rui originally just wanted to be an unobtrusive pawn that could withdraw at any time, but unfortunately, things turned out contrary to his wishes. In fact, since he was reborn into the Demon Realm, he was already destined to be a member of the game. Since he was in the game, how could he just be a bystander? Even if he was an insignificant pawn, he was also a chess piece. The key was to see how to move.
If a pawn played well, it could even affect the overall situation. Moreover, a pawn might not always be a pawn. Those who really controlled the situation in the game had also climbed up step by step from being a pawn.
The foundation of the Dark Moon Estate was too weak. Not to mention Prince Obsidian of the capital, even the Red Spirit Estate which controlled the lifeline of the Dark Moon was like a Sword of Damocles hanging above their heads, which could cut off the Dark Moon's neck at any time.
The key now was when Obsidian could understand the Sword of Fallen Angel. Otherwise, even if the Dark Moon kept a low profile and did not attract attention, it was only a matter of time before it perished, not to mention that Jía still had such a determined attitude. Judging from the previous Master Challenge and Sky Battle, Obsidian had gradually lost his patience.
The Super System provided a very good platform. At present, what Chen Rui lacked the most was time. Similarly, the Dark Moon Estate also happened to be in urgent need of stability and development. For himself and the Dark Moon, even if he did not have a political background, he must bite the bullet and plan with all his might.
