Master Rummenigge was setting up a magic circle. Suddenly, a miner attracted his attention. This miner did not follow his instructions to engrave the magic patterns, but he skillfully drew another strange symbol. With Master Rummenigge's eyesight, he actually couldn't fully understand the meaning of it for a while, but he was sure that it was soundproof.
Rummenigge knew something was wrong, so he walked over calmly and pretended to command the miner. The surrounding crystal men had limited intelligence. They would only monitor the situation in the hall according to the order, so they didn't notice anything unusual.
"Master, you can speak now. Those crystal men can't hear you for the time being, but you still have to pretend on the surface." The miner was naturally Chen Rui. As he spoke, he continued to crouch down and pretend to engrave the magic patterns.
Rummenigge's eyes flashed with surprise, "You are …"
Of course, Chen Rui would not expose the identity of "Arthur", "I was entrusted by General Crawford to save you. I must first understand the specific situation here."
Rummenigge was overjoyed, but he was also considered old and experienced. He knew that he needed to be calmer at this time. On the surface, he was still pointing and replying, "When I was investigating the accident in the mining area, I found traces of a hidden magic circle. Then, when I was investigating deeply and trying to dispel it, I was captured by a terrifying powerhouse. I was forced to complete the hosting of the magic circle for him."
"What does this powerhouse look like? What is the function of the magic circle here? "Chen Rui had already guessed a little, but in order to get certain information, he still asked one more question.
"That powerhouse is thin and has white hair, but his strength is unfathomable. My Demon King-level strength is completely powerless in front of him. Just a look from him can oppress me to the point that I can't move. He is currently in a special training. You must be careful. If you are discovered, it will be over." Rummenigge's words were also reminding this "ally" who came to rescue him. If he was not sure, he must return and report to Crawford as soon as possible.
Rummenigge was actually very clear that although the powerhouse said that he would let him go when the work was completed, there would only be one ending for him at that time. That was to be silenced. The person who was sent now was the only hope to get out, so he must be careful.
However, Rummenigge didn't know that even if Crawford himself came here, it would still be useless. That powerhouse is a powerful Dragons with the strength of the peak stage of the Demon Overlord!
When Chen Rui heard the appearance of the powerhouse, he was more certain in his heart. It is really the Crystal Dragon, Jacob! As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place. Who would have thought that Jacob would come back after retreating?
"The Magical Arrays here are very profound. Even I don't really understand them. For example, the Magical Array that is closely guarded by the Crystal people leads to another cave. It seems to be using the essence of the underground crystal mine to carry out some kind of cultivation or recovery. Every day, that expert will cultivate for a period of time. Our current one is an expanded one-way space transmission magic circle that continuously transports those high-purity crystal ores to a distant location. "
Hearing Rummenigge's words, Chen Rui finally confirmed the speculation in his heart. Sure enough, the crystal dragon, Jacob, is using the special power of these crystal mine resources to recover from the injuries caused by Catherine last time. As for the one-way space transmission, it was obviously the habit of the greedy Dragons to take the opportunity to amass money while healing.
Due to Catherine's deterrence, the Bloodfall Force had given up the Crystal Valley. The crystal dragon's healing should be a personal behavior, so the location of the crystal mine transmission should be Jacob's private warehouse or the location of the treasure.
Jacob once killed Beast Rafael and Kia's mother, Freya. Since he happened to meet this time, he must not let this enemy go.
Chen Rui understood that he was not Jacob's opponent at present. Even if he destroyed the recovery magic circle, he couldn't really give Jacob a fatal blow. Instead, it would alert the enemy. Although he was not the crystal dragon's opponent, there was an "old friend" of the crystal dragon who should have enough power to defeat or even eliminate Jacob.
Jacob's treatment was about to end now, and Paglio couldn't come in such a short time, so he had to be patient for the time being.
Chen Rui's mind turned quickly for a while, and he already had an idea, "Master, can you please be patient for a while? If it's short, one or two days; if it's long, a few days. I must leave here first and go back to report to the higher-ups. I will definitely rescue you safely by then. "
This was exactly what Rummenigge hoped. The powerhouse's strength was unfathomable. At least, he had to successfully spread the news. Anyway, his work would take a long time to complete. For the time being, there was no danger to his life.
While the crystal dragon had not woken up from the recovery magic circle, Chen Rui ended his brief meeting with Rummenigge. He changed his appearance several times and left Jacob's "territory" successfully.
When returning to the intersection before he met the crystal man, Chen Rui once again felt the faint ancient runes breath, and he couldn't help but have doubts.
I didn't feel this breath in the secret mining area or hall just now. It should obviously have nothing to do with the crystal dragon. So, what is the source that emits the power of the ancient runes?
Chen Rui's heart moved. He didn't immediately return to the ground, but he walked in that direction. The deeper he went, the more complicated the terrain became. There was no light, but he could vaguely perceive that this was a huge tunnel. Chen Rui was already sure that these were not made by the crystal dragon. Or rather, the crystal dragon temporarily established a secret mining area or borrowed the existing tunnel.
The hazy ancient runes breath really began to become clearer. This breath seemed to be even more ancient, far better than the inscriptions that Rolla experimented with. With his current knowledge, he actually couldn't distinguish the specific level and attribute.
Could it be that there are still ancient treasures hidden under this huge crystal mineral vein? Or is it one of the 7 things that Rolla once said besides the silver box? Chen Rui was a little excited, but unknown treasures were likely to be accompanied by unknown accidents or dangers. For now, it was better to solve the crystal dragon's matter first.
After all, Chen Rui had experienced so many things. After calming down and thinking about it, he suppressed his curiosity and impulse. He didn't continue to walk. He retraced his original path, bypassed the sensing mechanism of the Dragon Inscription, and went all the way to the ground.
He didn't need to take the wyvern to return to the Bloody Vine Flower City for 4 or 5 days. The current [Star Gate] could already set up 2 star points. Just in case, he had already set up a star point in the Bloody Vine Flower City. Now he only needed to return to the Crystal Valley to set up another star point, then he could achieve "dual connection" between the 2 locations. He could travel back and forth between the 2 locations in the blink of an eye.
Of course, due to the upper limit of the star points, the 2 star points originally set in the Dark Moon and the Red Spirit were cancelled.
The reason why the Red Spirit set up the star point was related to the disappearance of a slime. It was also the real inside story of Josh's "great power" to overthrow Kanita.
The reason why he had to return to the Crystal Valley to set up instead of the underground was because of the automatic change characteristics of the Dragon Inscription. In order to prevent disturbing the crystal dragon or other accidents, he returned to the Bloody Vine Flower City to inform Paglio. Although Paglio couldn't come here directly through the [Star Gate], with the Paglio's flying power, it was much faster than the wyvern. He might be able to arrive in 2 or 3 days.
Before the poison dragon arrived, Chen Rui would not wait foolishly in the Crystal Valley, but he had very important things to complete.
In the blink of an eye, 5 days had passed.
For the Dragons who had a long life, these 5 days were just a blink of an eye. However, during this time, the crystal dragon Jacob was not in a good mood. He felt that even time had slowed down.
The days of getting injured on top of his injuries were naturally very unpleasant. The crystal dragon's physique was special, so he couldn't use potions. He could only rely on the Fountain of Resurrection, the power of the crystal mine, and the ancient runes slate to slowly recover. The injuries caused by the enemy 2000 years ago were finally about to recover, but he was set up by someone ruthlessly. The Fountain of Resurrection disappeared, and the ancient runes slate was stolen. Even the Crystal Valley that he managed for 2000 years was forced to give up. The most unfortunate thing was that at that time, he also encountered the strongest woman in the Demon Realm. Even with 3 against 1, he was still beaten to the point of fleeing. The injuries on his body were even more serious.
As a Dragons, the eccentric crystal dragon had always been arrogant and unreasonable. He didn't have a good interpersonal relationship in Bloodfall. This time, he lost his base territory again. Jacob didn't want to be like Azgalor and associate with those guys he didn't like, so he sneaked back. Firstly, it was to use the power of the crystal mine to repair his body. Secondly, it was to gather the crystal mine crazily and use the transmission magic circle to send these wealth to his treasure hiding place.
Even if the matter was exposed and he had to leave, the collected crystal mine could also be used for him to heal his injuries in another place. Unfortunately, after losing the ancient runes slate and the Fountain of Resurrection, the recovery of his injuries was much slower. He didn't know how long it would take to recover.
The crystal dragon was absorbing the power of the crystal mine in the Dragon Inscription to heal. Suddenly, a crystal man came to report: There seems to be a problem with the transmission hall of the crystal mine.
Jacob frowned. Is it that Rummenigge who is playing tricks? This ant touched the Dragon Inscription and was captured by me. Seeing that he is a mechanic master, I temporarily spared his life and forced him to preside over and expand the transmission magic circle. This way, I can save a lot of energy.
Of course, as long as the transmission of the crystal mine is almost done in the future, the crystal dragon won't let Rummenigge live.
Jacob left the healing cave and came to the hall of the crystal mine transmission. He saw that the space entrance that was originally absorbing the crystal mine didn't continue to "swallow" for some reason. Instead, it started to spit out the crystal mine.
The wisdom of the crystal puppets was limited. They didn't know what to do, so they all stood there blankly. Jacob was taken aback and hurried forward. At a glance, he found that the surrounding magic circle was strange. These magic circles were profound and mysterious. They seemed to have the shadow of Dragon Inscription, and the level was very high. Even Jacob, who was proficient in this, couldn't match them.
Jacob's face suddenly changed. Even if he couldn't understand the true meaning of these inscriptions or magic circles, he could guess that this original one-way transmission circle had been changed to two-way! It was now flowing backward toward this hall. If this continued, not only those crystal mines, but even the treasures that he had accumulated would all flow backward!
