The poison storm in Town Pesa gradually subsided. About 2 days later, the poisoned soldiers and townspeople returned to normal. During this period, Chen Rui deliberately sent people to cooperate with the Dark Demon members lurking in various places. He used Town Pesa as an "example" to publicize the Dark Moon Army's assistance to the Blue Lava Estate.
The Dark Moon Army's actions in Town Pesa were quickly publicized. It turned out that the success of the "first stop" was also obvious. The places they passed through basically did not encounter much resistance. Instead, they praised the Dark Moon Army's discipline and assistance. Although it was not to the extent of "eating his mother, drinking his mother, and opening the city gate to welcome the king", with a good reputation and powerful force, under the influence of both dignity and kindness, the Dark Moon Army came to assist the Blue Lava Estate at the most difficult time spread everywhere in the estate. The original hatred had also been diluted a lot.
Most of the hatred of war was brought by the ruling class for the sake of interests. It should not be borne by ordinary soldiers or civilians.
What's more, the strong were respected, and the winner was the king. This had always been the rule of the Demon Realm. There were countless examples of the defeated choosing to serve and be loyal to the winner. Those who were unwilling to yield could only withdraw from the stage or be directly eliminated.
The Dark Moon Army's journey was not very fast. The purpose was to "build momentum". Now almost all the people in the estate knew that the Dark Moon came to support at the request of Lord Chandler, and they provided a lot of help to the Blue Lava Estate. Even the mastermind who controlled Chandler could not "renege" for a while.
Finally, the Dark Moon Flame Army came to the center of the Blue Lava Estate, the Blue Lava City.
The strange thing was that the Blue Lava City did not close the city gate or wait for battle as imagined. Instead, the city gate was wide open, making a gesture of letting them do whatever they wanted.
The Blue Lava Estate's sheriff, Varit, and the financial officer, Mousse, led the leaders of various forces to express a warm welcome and cordial condolences to the Dark Moon Flame Army on behalf of the "representative lord" Chandler.
The Blue Lava Estate and the Dark Moon were both 1 of the 4 major estates. Varit, Mousse, Chen Rui, and Athena were all of the same rank, so it was not rude to welcome them on behalf of Chandler.
"Sirs, sir feudal lord originally wanted to welcome you personally, but he couldn't come because he was feeling unwell recently. Please forgive him." Financial officer Mousse was a little thin lich. He said with a charming smile on his face.
The investigation was very clear this time. 3 leaders of the Dark Moon came. They were the Flame Legion legion commander and Sheriff Athena, the Red Blood Legion deputy legion commander Aguile, and the financial officer Chen Rui.
Chen Rui said: "Lord Mousse is too polite. How could we dare to trouble the Lord to welcome us? I wonder if there is a suitable place for the army to station outside the city?"
"Outside the city? Your army is a guest from afar, so please stay in the barracks in the city. Ever since the Azure Legion's Vice Commander Sumen rebelled, the Azure Legion's barracks had become empty. Now was the right time to make use of it. I have sent someone to tidy it up. There will be a large number of supplies to reward the brave soldiers of your legion later. "
Chen Rui and Athena looked at each other, "Thank you so much. By the way, I have been learning potion skills from Master Aldas of the Dark Moon, and I have a little success … Athena, you stay in the barracks to settle the army. Sir Aguile and I will go to visit sir feudal lord now."
Chen Rui did not use a tone of discussion or request, but a direct decision attitude.
"This …"
Mousse hesitated for a moment. Sheriff Varit with a cold expression on the side snorted coldly. As he was about to speak, he was stopped by Mousse's eyes. The lich financial officer smiled apologetically, "Master Aldas is a famous potion master of the empire. If it weren't for the capital's potioneer contest being postponed, it is likely that he would have become the strongest master in the entire Demon Realm. Since Sir Chen Rui has received his true teachings, he should also be at the master level. However, we have invited several potion masters, but none of them can cure Sir Lord. It's just that since sir has come from afar and is so enthusiastic, it's hard to refuse your kindness, so please make this trip. "
Since I can't refuse anyway, I might as well use this opportunity to compliment him. It seems that this Mousse really knows how to conduct himself.
Chen Rui nodded, whispered a few words to Athena, and walked toward the lord's mansion with Mousse and others. Paglio, who had transformed into Aguile, naturally followed closely.
On the way, Chen Rui asked intentionally or unintentionally, "What is going on with General Sumen of the Azure Legion? We heard a lot of rumors along the way, but we never knew the true story of the incident. "
Mousse explained, "Sumen disobeyed sir lord's order and fled with his troops without authorization. He has been removed from the Azure Legion. Now the entire estate is searching for this traitor."
Before Chen Rui spoke, Varit on the side said coldly, "General Sumen is not a traitor!"
"Varit, you …" Mousse looked annoyed, "No matter what the reason is, disobeying sir lord is a rebellion! His Lordship has already officially announced this. "
Varit snorted coldly and didn't speak again.
The lord's mansion was heavily guarded. After Mousse expressed his intention, the guard went in to report. After a while, he walked out and gestured for the Dark Moon's guests to enter.
Mousse, Varit, and several family representatives led Chen Rui and Paglio into the lord's mansion.
In the hall, Chen Rui met the Blue Lava Estate "Acting Lord" Chandler, who had not yet been officially appointed by the capital.
Chandler was Titan's only son, and there was no doubt that he was the heir to the lord. He looked to be in his twenties, but the lord's face was very pale, and his body was a little weak as he sat on the throne. His eyes were lifeless, and there were two deep bags under his eyes. His face was haggard. It seemed that, as Mousse had said, he was seriously ill.
Chen Rui bowed slightly with Paglio, "Dark Moon Financial Officer Chen Rui, Red Blood Legion Deputy Legion Commander Aguile, greets sir lord."
"Chen Rui, I seem to have heard of this name. Is he … from the Dark Moon?" Chandler's words seemed weak. He seemed to think of something again and asked, "It's just that the Blue Lava Estate and the Dark Moon had an unpleasant experience not long ago. May I know why the 2 of you came to the Blue Lava Estate?"
Chen Rui frowned slightly. Mousse hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Didn't sir lord write to Royal Highness Jía of the Dark Moon for help? Now the 10,000 people of the Flame Legion of the Dark Moon have arrived at the Blue Lava Estate. "
"The elites of the Dark Moon Army have arrived at the Blue Lava Estate?" The confusion in Chandler's eyes suddenly turned into a trace of panic, "Quick! Quickly ask Sumen to face the enemy! "
"Sir lord, how can you forget again? General Sumen has already been declared a rebel by sir personally. He is currently on the run." Mousse looked at Chen Rui and Paglio, "This Sir Chen Rui and those troops were sent to help us quell the rebellion."
"Ask the Dark Moon Army to quell the rebellion?" Chandler looked puzzled, "Why can't I remember?"
Mousse sighed and said to Chen Rui, "Sir Chen Rui, the lord accidentally contracted an illness a while ago. As you can see, when the illness is serious, he can't remember many things. We have invited many potion masters to see him, but they are helpless. I wonder if sir has any good ideas?"
Chen Rui had already seen that Chandler did have a problem, and he immediately pondered without saying anything. If it is just a minor injury, the grand master-level potion in the exchange center is enough to deal with it, but Chandler's symptoms can't be cured by ordinary potions.
At this time, Sheriff Varit said, "Sir Chen Rui, you said that the Dark Moon received sir lord's letter for help, but with sir lord's current condition, the authenticity of this matter is still debatable. I hope you can show the corresponding evidence to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings."
As soon as this sentence was said, the eyes of several family representatives fell on Chen Rui. Chen Rui already had an idea when he saw Chandler's state. He took out a letter unhurriedly, "This letter was personally sent to the Dark Moon by Lord Chandler's confidant, Graham. It also has the unique bloodline mark of the Abbas Family."
Varit took the letter and looked at it with a puzzled expression. Several family representatives also gathered around and looked carefully at the content and bloodline mark of the letter. They nodded secretly.
Graham was one of Chandler's confidants. Many people disappeared some time ago, and Graham was one of them. In fact, this person was already dead. He was discovered by the Dark Demon members before he died. Chen Rui deliberately used this name, coupled with the unique bloodline mark, everyone had no doubt.
In fact, the bloodline mark was personally activated by the vampire Titan, who had become controlled by Guradam, when Chen Rui passed through Town Yankou just in case. It really came in handy now.
In Chandler's current state, this letter was enough to be fake. Even after Chandler regained consciousness, he probably couldn't remember whether he had written this letter by himself.
Mousse leaned close to Chandler and said, "Sir lord, it seems that you really forgot. It's better to quickly ask the Dark Moon's Flame Legion to quickly quell Sumen's rebellion and return to the Dark Moon as soon as possible."
These words made Chandler's vision gradually hazy again. He said somewhat mechanically, "Yes, Sumen is deeply indebted to my father and I, but he actually committed a rebellion. I ask the Dark Moon's army to quickly eliminate the rebels and return peace to the Blue Lava Estate as soon as possible."
"That lich used the [Mind Seduction] of the dark magic that is almost lost. It should also have a mutated magic talent that can manipulate the words and deeds of the other party without the restrictions of time and space. Unless the lich actively removes the spell or is killed, the controlled person cannot get rid of the control. "Paglio's subtle voice sounded in Chen Rui's ear.
Chen Rui's eyes lit up, and he nodded slightly. In the [Analytical Eyes], Mousse's comprehensive strength was D (C +), which meant he was a Higher Demon on the surface, but he was actually the peak stage of the Demon King. He was stronger than Sheriff Varry's C- level strength. He had long been suspicious. After being reminded by Paglio, he immediately understood.
Chen Rui deliberately paced a few steps, and he suddenly said, "I know! I should have a way to make Lord Chandler return to normal! "
Mousse's eyelids twitched slightly, "Sir Chen Rui, although I don't know what you can do, it is better to be cautious in any case. Sir lord's identity is honorable, and there must be no mistakes. Moreover, we have invited several potion masters …"
"Because you only invited a potion master. If you invite a dark magic master, he may notice something." Chen Rui's words made Mousse's face change drastically. "We humans have done a lot of research on the dark magic, which is the opposite of light magic. Although my own power is weak, I can still recognize the [Mind Seduction] of this dark magic. As far as I know, this kind of magic seems to be very mysterious. Only the master-level … Uh, it should be the magician above the Demon King level can cast it. Isn't it? Sir Mousse? Or should I call you the dark magic master? "
As soon as these words came out, the faces of Sheriff Varry and the representatives of several families changed. They set their eyes on the thin Mousse.
