Master Fonsaq and Master Xingxing of the Dark Moon only learned the news from the Bloody Empire a few days later. At the time of the incident, no one could guess the real leader of this incident.
No one would have thought that the "Richard" who sacrificed himself heroically turned into a passerby after "self-destructing". He walked leisurely in the Bloody Empire's city, and he even participated in some heated discussions among the people from time to time, including scolding Nate and praising "himself".
In fact, with Chen Rui's power, it was not difficult to kill Nate. The difficulty was to ruin the reputation of the top master and completely defeat him. Otherwise, even if he died, he would be a martyr who would be remembered for thousands of years. However, it was different now. This beautiful move of "everyone knows" made the martyr become an "inferior soldier" with a bad reputation for thousands of years.
This plot was imitated by Chen Rui in the comics and movies he had seen before. In the end, he did not kill Nate, but he gave Nate a "way to live".
However, this way to live was not easy. Nate, who was alive, had to face all the people who understood his conspiracy, including all the masters and mechanics in the association.
Nate could only blame himself for saying so many words proudly in order to defeat Chen Rui's will. Especially the sentence, "The mechanics or masters in this Mechanic Association are actually my food in captivity." It had made all the mechanics feel the crisis and indignation.
What is the public enemy? Now it is time for this guy to face the wrath of all the "food".
Even if Raizen did not order the execution of Nate, who was a royal family member, this notorious "president" would no longer have the face to stand in the mechanic world, let alone serve as the president. However, Raizen would definitely calm the anger of the public unless he wanted the entire Bloody Empire's Mechanic Association to become an empty shell without any masters or talents.
When Chen Rui revealed Nate's crime of persecuting Fonsaq just now, he deliberately added the sentence "betrayed by Teris again". This was not fabricated out of thin air. Master Fonsaq once said that he had asked Teris for help at that time, but his whereabouts were exposed and he was chased by Nate. The reason why Chen Rui emphasized this sentence was obviously to drag Teris into this.
Although at Adelaide's birthday party, Teris used an absurd reason to admit the "crime" of assassinating Second Prince Edmund and took the initiative to go to the Furnace of Darkness to be punished, temporarily settling the dispute, Chen Rui always felt that this person was not simple. Not only was he talented, but he was also scheming. Every step seemed to be deliberate. Could it be that he deliberately wanted to go to the Furnace of Darkness?
Or perhaps, the Dark Furnace is a place that I must go, just like Town Lupin in the Blue Lava Estate? He's just using this opportunity to enter?
Chen Rui pondered for a long time and came up with a temporary plan in his mind. Before leaving the capital for the Saxphil Mountain Range, he would go to Teris' residence to check it out.
Under the purple moonlight, when people were still eagerly talking about the major events that happened in the Mechanic Association during the day in the night market, Chen Rui had appeared silently in Teris' mansion in the inner city.
The prince's mansion this time was not the same as the general's mansion last time. Last time, Chen Rui used the birthday party to enter the general's mansion, set up a star point, and used the [Star Gate]. This time, it obviously wouldn't work.
In order to prevent assassinations and prying, most of the aristocratic residences in the inner city had set up layers of magic protection circles, and the prince's mansion was no exception. However, Chen Rui came to check the situation, so it was impossible to break in by force. He knocked out a maid when she went out, then he used [Camouflage] to transform into the maid's appearance and sneaked into the mansion.
What surprised Chen Rui secretly was that although he successfully sneaked into Teris's mansion, and like the other maids, he hadn't made any abnormal moves until now, he had an intuition that he was being watched. He didn't know why.
Unlike what he imagined, Teris' mansion seemed to be simple and even frugal. There were no luxurious furnishings. Compared with the Third General, Adelaide, it could be described as "poor". It almost didn't look like a prince's mansion.
Since Teris was now being punished in the Dark Furnace, and the unmarried little prince did not have a wife or concubine, the butler was in charge of the normal affairs in the prince's mansion. The maids and servants were mainly responsible for some cleaning and maintenance work. The maid that Chen Rui disguised as was sent to clean the study room, which was exactly what he wanted.
Chen Rui wiped the desk while observing the scene in the study room. The study room was very large, and there were no gorgeous furnishings. The most eye-catching thing was the exaggerated large bookshelves, which were listed with various kinds of books, military, political, historical, etc. Even the rare economic books of the Demon Realm were among them. Judging from the wear and tear on the corners of the books, they were by no means decorations, but they were really frequently read publications.
Chen Rui compared his study room in the Dark Moon with the otaku room in his previous life, and he was secretly ashamed. Perhaps only the nearly 100 gigabytes of "literary films" in the hard disk can be compared with the books in front of me in terms of quantity …
Chen Rui couldn't help but admire Teris's eagerness to learn. It seems that in addition to his extraordinary talent, this genius also has extraordinary diligence. While wiping slowly, he tried to move some books. Unfortunately, there was no secret door like he imagined.
His movements suddenly stopped. A strong sense of crisis of being locked by a powerful force suddenly surged in his heart.
Race: Wrath Royal Family.
Comprehensive Strength Assessment: A + (S-). Physique: A (S-), Strength: A + (S), Spirit: B + (A-), Agility: A (S-).
[Analysis]: Fire attribute.
With this data, Chen Rui could guess who the other party was even without looking back.
The first general of the Bloody Empire, Gustav. There should be another name called Bridget.
The first general actually appeared in Teris' mansion in person.
"What are you looking for?" Gustav's voice sounded.
Chen Rui knew that his whereabouts were exposed. The maid's figure quickly changed into a man's form. Of course, it could not be Richard's appearance.
"I haven't found it yet. Unfortunately, I have no time to look for it now." Chen Rui slowly turned his head. His voice was as calm as if he was facing an old friend. In fact, he was indeed an "old friend".
Gustav's eyes were locked on the strange man. He didn't relax at all because the opponent's strength was only Higher Demon. The powerful Demon Overlord-level breath made Chen Rui tremble like a frog being stared at by a poisonous snake.
In Town Lupin of the Blue Lava Estate, Gustav's alias, Bridget, showed amazing and terrifying strength. Not only did he directly tear apart Chen Rui's biggest killer move, [Scorching Dragon Kill], but he also forcefully withstood the powerful blow of Dark Elemental King Hegel that Chen Rui transferred using [Star Diversion]. That was the powerful attack of the peak stage of the Demon Overlord!
Gustav's comprehensive strength assessment seemed to be similar to the emerald dragon Krobelus which was the strength of the early stage of the Demon Overlord, but Chen Rui could be sure that Krobelus was by no means Gustav's opponent.
Chen Rui once used the God-Eating Mask's special skill, [Demonic Flies Transformation], to narrowly avoid Gustav's punch. However, [Demonic Flies Transformation] could only be used once, and [Star Diversion] only lasted for 10 seconds. In a head-on confrontation, even if he used [Scorching Dragon Possession], he couldn't match Gustav.
So, what about the [Royal Star Transformation]? To what extent can the [Royal Star Transformation] reach?
Chen Rui secretly adjusted his Star Power and asked calmly, "The last question, I feel that I have been seen through when I entered the king's mansion. Can you let me die knowing? Sir General? "
Gustav looked at Chen Rui's calm smile. For some reason, this weak person gave him a feeling that he couldn't control him, "You are very calm, but you can't escape the fate of death just like this. However, I can give you the last answer in your life. The entire prince's mansion is equivalent to a strange huge magic circle. Every servant's breath of life, including the body imprint, is a part of the magic circle. Once there is a difference, it will be detected immediately. Any transformation or camouflage skills won't work here. "
Chen Rui finally understood why he felt like he was being stared at as soon as he came in. This seemingly simple prince's mansion actually has such a thorough defense. It is likely that this is just the tip of the iceberg.
"Now you know the answer, so pay the price of death." Gustav slowly raised his hand.
Chen Rui knew that he couldn't delay it anymore. His figure disappeared in an instant. He had already come to the courtyard from the room. Gustav had already locked him with his breath and immediately chased up. However, the enemy did not escape, but he stood in the courtyard and confronted him from a distance. His body suddenly lit up with an extremely bright light.
The dazzling degree of the light made it difficult for Gustav to look directly at it for a while. He covered his eyes, and his power began to condense quickly.
After a while, a man wearing a gorgeous armor, helmet and mask appeared in front of Gustav.
Except for the [Royal Star Transformation], other skills couldn't match Gustav. Moreover, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Chen Rui didn't want to expose the identity of "Aguile". Now the faith crystal of the Super System was enough to use the [Royal Star Transformation] several times, and he didn't reveal this skill in front of Gustav last time. Therefore, he used this strongest "transformation" at the beginning.
The [Royal Star Transformation] state could cast various skills, including [Scorching Dragon Kill]. The only conflict was that the enhanced possession skill of [Scorching Dragon Possession] couldn't be stacked with the [Royal Star Transformation].
Facing the gorgeous and dazzling "armored man", Gustav wasn't too surprised. He snorted coldly and punched.
This punch didn't have any changes or follow-up moves. It was just a simple blow, but it had the artistic conception of turning complexity into simplicity. Chen Rui couldn't even think of dodging for a while.
Before the punch reached his body, he could feel the whistling wind pressure on his face. It was quite a terrifying power!
Chen Rui didn't take it head-on. The space in front of him suddenly distorted, and a deep black hole appeared.
"Star Devouring".
In an instant, Gustav only felt that his power was uncontrollably rushing toward the black hole like a wave. The more he converged, the stronger the devouring power was. He couldn't help but look surprised.
The strength of this guy in front of me is still above my expectation!
If according to the normal frequency of "Star Devouring", even if Gustav's power was strong, there would be a time when the black hole's sucking was emptied with such a continuous output of power. However, people were not dead, especially Gustav who was a Demon Overlord powerhouse with extremely rich combat experience.
Gustav yelled violently. The red light on his body shone brightly, and the muscles on his arms swelled. Chen Rui only felt that the frequency of the "black hole"'s devouring power suddenly accelerated. This acceleration was not the black hole's own rhythm, but it was involuntarily accelerated by the opponent's sudden surge of power.
The devouring frequency was getting higher and higher. Not long after, it had exceeded the limit that the black hole itself could withstand. "Boom", there was a strange distortion in the space, and the black hole actually disappeared without a trace. Gustav also took 2 steps back under the repulsive force field. His eyes had a touch of redness, and his swollen arms were steaming with terrifying power. It seemed that the blow just now consumed an unimaginable amount of power.
Chen Rui was secretly shocked: There is not much skill to break the [Star Devouring] blow. It is purely unreasonable "brute force"! Can't you devour power? You will burst your digestive limit!
[Star Devouring] had been used many times in the Super System Space. It had devoured the soul of the peak stage of the Demon Overlord, Glorfin. Although it was not comparable to the Super System that controlled everything in reality, Gustav could use the most direct method to break the black hole. His strength was evident.
On the surface, the 2 sides were evenly matched. Gustav even suffered a little loss, but Chen Rui knew in his heart that he was not his opponent just based on the blow that broke the black hole just now. Even if he had used the [Royal Star Transformation], the first general of the Bloody Empire was indeed the ruler of the Wrath Royal Family.
Since the night reconnaissance failed this time, and the opponent was Gustav who could not be defeated, it was not appropriate to stay here for a long time. Chen Rui had the intention to retreat, and he began to plan quickly.
"I seem to have underestimated you. It seems that I have to be a little more serious." Bloodthirsty red began to appear in Gustav's eyes again, "As an opponent who is barely worthy for me to use my true power, I can tell you one thing. I am not a mutated bloodline. I have only awakened 1 of the 3 bloodline talents of the Samael Royal Family, which is [Blood Fury]. My talent is not good, so I can only improve my only talent ability in continuous battles. Now I can control the blood in my body at will and exert [Blood Fury] to its strongest state … In the next blow, I will use my true power. I hope you don't let me down. "
Gustav was not just spouting nonsense. At the same time he said this, the red light on his body started to circulate rapidly, and the undulating blood vessels were like raging rivers. The muscles on his arms started to swell at an extraordinary rate, and the terrifying aura of power instantly boiled to the peak. Another punch came flying out.
This punch carried an indomitable determination. The terrifying pressure tore the air and even space. The power contained in it was far greater than the blow that broke [Star Devourer] just now.
Chen Rui could not avoid it. The dazzling starlight on his body shone to the limit in an instant. In an instant, Gustav only felt a vast breath coming at him as if his entire body was surrounded by the stars that had passed through the ancient times. The stars that covered the surroundings contained a type of indescribable and supreme Law, and their movements inexplicably slowed down. Right at this instant, the 'stars' suddenly exploded apart.
[Star Explosion]!
If it was said that Chen Rui was still somewhat suppressed when he faced Adelaide previously, then he used his full strength for this [Star Explosion]. The 2 forces collided with each other firmly.
In an instant, the entire Prince's Mansion trembled violently. Even the defensive magic array couldn't suppress the intense fluctuations. In the next moment, the silhouette flashing with starlight was sent flying and fell into a strange gate of light, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Gustav still maintained the simple action of punching. His mountain-like figure stood still, but his entire arm was badly mutilated, and the bones could faintly be seen.
The most conspicuous thing was that the starry power lingered on his arm. It seemed to carry countless chaotic sharp forces, causing the wound to spread rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. This was just the surface phenomenon. What could not be seen was the strange Star Power that penetrated into his body, destroying the entire internal tissues and cells crazily.
Gustav let out a low growl, and the redness in his eyes intensified. His entire arm swelled up once again, and the blood that spurted out turned into a bloody mist. Enveloped by the bloody mist, the specks of starlight finally dimmed and dissipated without a trace.
"Very good!" Gustav looked at his badly mutilated arm. He seemed to be a little surprised by his injury, and a hint of admiration flashed past his eyes. "Next time, I'll leave your corpse behind."
At the same time, in a house on the outskirts of the city, Chen Rui's figure appeared out of thin air and fell straight to the ground.
The originally gorgeous armor that was surrounded by starry light became much dimmer, and there was a shocking fist mark on his chest. With the fist mark as the center, countless cracks spread in all directions.
As the Star Power in his body dissipated, the armor gradually disappeared. However, Chen Rui could not stand up.
Despite the powerful power of [Star Explosion], Gustav's punch directly withstood the power of [Star Explosion], but it still passed through [Star Explosion] and hit Chen Rui. Chen Rui felt as if he was penetrated by an indescribable force. At the same time, there was a word "crushed".
"Bang! Bang! Bang! " Chen Rui's body made a muffled sound of continuous bursting. Blood suddenly flowed all over the ground. His internal organs had been severely damaged, and some were even shattered. If he was an ordinary person, he would have died already. Fortunately, he had the characteristics of [Regeneration] and [Astral Form]. Although he was seriously injured, it was only a matter of time before he recovered.
Having said that, if it weren't for the [Royal Star Transformation] armor, there was a layer of Mystic Jade Armor that offset part of the fatal power. The punch just now could probably punch a big hole in his chest. It was definitely a life-threatening situation.
What a Gustav! Especially that kind of absolute fist power of pure strength, it was simply not comparable to ordinary skills unless there was equal strength.
A thought surged in Chen Rui's mind. The true combat power of the first general of the Bloody Empire is probably more than the early stage of the Demon Overlord!
In any case, I must overcome such terrifying fist power! Gustav is the next target to surpass!
