As soon as the cloaked man said that, the 4 people in the house were shocked.
"Young General Monroe, do you remember the sword competition of the Flame Legion? That time, you lost to Legion Leader Athena within a minute, so you chose to go to the Flame Legion instead of our Red Blood Legion."
That sword competition was held internally. Only a few leaders knew about it. Monroe looked at the cloaked man and nodded slightly.
Chen Rui glanced at Fini again, "Ms. Fini, how is your father, Master Rummenigge? I rescued him from the Crystal Valley last time. "
There were even fewer people who knew about this. Fini was taken aback, then she bowed deeply, "It seems that it is really Sir Aguile. Thanks to you for saving my father's life. Unfortunately, I can only express my gratitude in this way."
After Monroe and Fini confirmed that at least the cloaked man in front of him was not the pursuer of the Shadow Empire, Feyman's vigilance was slightly reduced, "Are you the emerging powerhouse, Aguile, who defeated the Red Spirit Lord Josh and killed the capital's envoy, Rus, in the Dark Moon's war of lords?"
Chen Rui nodded, "Sir has overpraised me. My strength has not reached the intermediate stage of the Demon Emperor. That battle was just a fluke."
Calder's eyes showed a strange expression, "Why are you here?"
Chen Rui glanced at Fini, "I'm here to pick up Young General Monroe and Ms. Fini on the order of Princess Jía. The Dark Moon will provide shelter to both of you."
The so-called "order of Princess Jía" was naturally fake, but with the current relationship between Chen Rui and Jía, this level of acting first and reporting later was definitely not a problem, not to mention it was beneficial to the Dark Moon.
Monroe was surprised, "How did Princess Jía know I'm here?"
"Don't underestimate the Dark Moon's ability." Chen Rui said lightly, "Your empire will not want an incompetent ally."
Chen Rui's words had directly elevated the Dark Moon to the status of an ally of the Shadow Empire. Calder was the first to express his objection, "Since this is the case, Princess Jía will definitely hand over the young general and Ms. Fini to Her Majesty Empress as the so-called ally gift!"
"Young General Monroe is currently a wanted criminal of the Shadow Empire. If Princess Jía is the lord of the Shadow Empire, then she can only promise to arrest you like General Crawford. However, Princess Jía is the top lord of the Fallen Angel Empire and is also the future ruler of the Lucifer Royal Family. She is not subject to the control of your empire. Sir Monroe is now the senior counselor of the Flame Legion and the commander of the magician legion. This appointment has not been revoked after Princess Jía received the news that the young general is wanted. "
Chen Rui's words were obviously half-true, and he added another sensational sentence, "What's more, in addition to the cooperation in the estate, Princess Jía and General Crawford also have a deep personal relationship. After all, your father only has such a son."
Monroe was shocked, and he held Fini's hand tighter. Feyman was silent, but Calder still said in disbelief, "These are just fancy words. Don't try to deceive the young general. How can you ensure our safety?"
"I'm here with the greatest sincerity." Chen Rui snorted coldly, "If I don't really value and respect the young general, it will not be me who comes here, but a Demon Overlord powerhouse who captured you."
This was not an alarmist statement. At the Dark Moon auction, 2 Demon Overlord powerhouses were captured and killed in the blink of an eye under the watchful eyes of the public. The Dark Moon definitely had such a foundation and strength.
Chen Rui immediately said, "Princess Jía has always kept her words, and her sincerity is beyond doubt. However, the Dark Moon Estate and the Shadow Empire are at a critical moment of cooperation now. This matter should not be exposed, and it is not suitable for the young general to return to the Flame Legion in the Dark Moon City immediately. Everyone should follow me to the Walan Fortress, where the Moon Shadow Legion is stationed in Mountain Xilang. Hide for a while and wait for the news to pass. "
As soon as these words came out, even Feyman nodded. If Jía really wanted to please her ally, she could directly send a Demon Overlord powerhouse. The 4 of us could only surrender without having to go through so much trouble.
Monroe was desperate. When he heard that the Dark Moon was willing to take them in when they were in danger, he immediately showed gratitude, "Then, thank you, Sir Aguile! Since Princess Royal Highness has not given up on me, an outsider, in this critical moment, then I will swear to officially join the Dark Moon and do my last drop of blood for the Princess Royal Highness! "
"Don't worry." Chen Rui nodded, "I have an old relationship with the legion commander of the Walan Fortress, Tim. I will ask him to take special care of you. Rest for a while first."
Chen Rui had several considerations for taking in Monroe. Not only was the magician legion needed the only commander that could be mobilized, but Catherine's real intention of using Fini's marriage was to deal with Broc. Broc would be removed sooner or later. By then, Monroe's incident would definitely be diluted or even "rehabilitated". Regardless of whether his only son returned to the Bloody Vine Flower Estate or not, Crawford would have more support and secret assistance to the Dark Moon.
Monroe's potential was also extraordinary. Coupled with the relationship between Fini's father, Rummenigge, this little effort was still very worthwhile.
In addition to these interests, deep in his heart, Chen Rui also had the desire to fulfill this loving couple.
When Calder saw that Monroe and Feyman both agreed and no longer objected, Fini was also relieved. Chen Rui learned from the 4 people that when Monroe "kidnapped" Fini that day, the news was somehow leaked, and he was chased by the Fire Blade Legion's general, Loki. If it weren't for Crawford who arranged 3 of his strongest subordinates to secretly protect Monroe, Monroe would have died in Loki's hands.
Loki's strength was very powerful. He had reached the peak stage of the Demon Emperor. He was the strongest combat power in Broc's hands. The 3 guards still couldn't defeat him. Torres of the intermediate stage of the Demon Emperor died. Feyman, who was also an intermediate stage of the Demon Emperor, was seriously injured. The remaining early stage of the Demon Emperor, Calder, was also slightly injured. He finally risked his life to protect Monroe and Fini from the danger.
After discussing the departure time at dark, Chen Rui found Celine and settled Alice in advance. This time, he was just sending the 4 of them to the Walan Fortress. It was inconvenient to take Alice on the road, and he couldn't expose the little loli's princess identity. After settling the 4 of them, he would rush back to Town Leia from the Walan Fortress to obtain those seeds, then bring the little loli back to the Dark Moon City.
As night fell, the howling night wind carried a bone-chilling chill. The purple moonlight stretched the 5 figures on the road.
These figures were Chen Rui, Monroe and others. Previously, they successfully passed through the border checkpoint and entered the territory of the Fallen Angel Empire. Although the road in front of them was a trade route with many people coming and going, there were no other passers-by in this late night. It seemed exceptionally quiet.
At this moment, Chen Rui at the back of the team suddenly stopped and pulled Monroe and Fini. Feyman and Calder at the front were also alert. A figure appeared in front of them and blocked their way.
This figure was burly and ferocious. He was wearing a black half-body metal armor, and the cloak behind him was fluttering in the cold wind.
Feyman was shocked, and the flames on his body burned with a whoosh. Calder had already pulled out his long sword and said hatefully, "Loki!"
Race: Envy Royal Family (mutated)
Comprehensive Strength Assessment: A +.
Physique: A +, Strength: A +, Spirit: A-, Speed: A.
[Analysis]: Water attribute.
It turns out that this is Loki. I didn't expect him to appear here at this moment and stop everyone!
Feyman gritted his teeth and said, "Aguile, Calder, you two protect the young general and the lady and leave first. I will hold him back!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden change. Feyman's figure trembled, and a bloody sword tip protruded from his right chest. Fortunately, his instinctive reaction made him move away from his vital point at the critical moment. His heart was not hurt, but this blow had severely injured his lung lobe.
In Feyman's roar, he swung backward with all his strength. The sword tip and the sword holder in his chest disappeared instantly, making this angry blow miss. Feyman, who missed, was even more seriously injured. He half-knelt on the ground unsteadily. Blood was constantly overflowing from his chest with a hint of purple. This was not the effect of moonlight, but poison!
Calder's figure appeared in front of Loki with a strange smile on his face. The sword in his hand was dripping with blood-the blood of his "partner".
"Calder!" Feyman gritted his teeth and yelled. He finally understood why the escape route was controlled by Loki and caused Torres to lose his life. Now, Loki once again appeared "in time" on the path that they had to pass and intercepted everyone.
This change was too fast. Even Chen Rui had no time to rescue. It turned out that Calder was actually a spy. No wonder he opposed Monroe staying in the Dark Moon at that time.
"Calder!" At this point, how could Monroe still not understand? He gritted his teeth and helped Feyman up, "You ungrateful shameless man! My father saved your life and even treated you as a confidant. "
"The so-called confidant is just a guard with no future. It's different following General Broc." Calder sneered, "So, I've been General Broc's man since a long time ago."
"Even if I die, I won't let you take Fini away!" Monroe had a heavy sword in his hand, and he stood in front of Fini to protect her.
"I didn't intend to let you live from the beginning, including Fini." Loki spoke with bloodthirsty cruelty in his eyes, "Poor little reptile, you still don't understand that marrying Fini is simply a trap. It is the general's trick to resolve the emperor's plan. Calder deliberately instigated you to escape with this woman. Not only will your father, Crawford be implicated, but as long as your corpses appear in the Dark Moon, then the cooperation between the Dark Moon and the Bloody Vine Flower Estate and even the Shadow Empire will be seriously affected … "
Chen Rui frowned. It seems that all of this is Broc's plan. He actually wants to take advantage of the situation and put the blame on the Dark Moon.
Loki's gaze fell on the frightened Fini, and there was a hint of lust in his eyes, "Although I'm not interested in marrying this woman, I don't mind playing with her before killing her."
Monroe was furious, and Fini was trembling with fear. She clenched a prop in her hand, ready to commit suicide at any time. Even if she died, she would never be tainted by the enemy.
Feyman was severely injured, and he was eroded by that poison. He knew that anything he said at this time was in vain, so he just accumulated his strength to prepare for the final dying blow.
"Wait a minute." Chen Rui spoke, "You seem to have forgotten something?"
"Oh?" The breath of power on Loki's body gradually exuded. The powerful oppression made Monroe, who was only a Higher Demon, almost breathless, "Are you emphasizing your existence? You are just a trash of the early stage of the Demon Emperor. Soon, you will turn into ashes. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have done it here in advance. "
Once Chen Rui and the others returned to the fortress or the Dark Moon City, they were likely to be protected by the Demon Overlord-level powerhouse. Even Loki did not dare to act rashly.
"Really?" Chen Rui remained calm, and there were no signs of power fluctuations.
"It's useless to deliberately mystify. I have seen through your strength. You are just an early stage of the Demon Emperor with some combat power." Calder smiled disdainfully, "General Loki is not comparable to a pampered aristocrat like Josh. He is the strongest Demon Emperor in the Fire Blade Legion. He has been through hundreds of battles. Even if 2 peak stage Demon Emperors of the same realm join forces, they are not his opponent! Maybe General Loki doesn't need to do it himself. Even I can turn you into a corpse. "
"The strongest Demon Emperor? Then, Broc has now surpassed the level of the Demon Emperor? I'm very surprised. After that kind of injury last time, you are still alive and even have a breakthrough? Maybe there is a special reason … "Chen Rui said lightly," In any case, the information you revealed has a certain reference value. "
The injury last time? Loki and Calder looked at each other. They were secretly shocked and asked, "Who are you?"
Chen Rui did not answer. He suddenly waved his hand. Monroe and Fini only felt a strong force hit them, and they suddenly fainted. Chen Rui appeared in front of Feynman instantly. Feynman thought that Chen Rui was also a spy, so he was about to fight desperately. However, he was poisoned, so his reaction ability was greatly reduced. He was knocked out with one blow.
This move was far beyond the expectations of the 2 enemies. Calder snorted coldly, "What the hell are you doing? Don't even think about living!"
"There are just some things that I don't want them to see, but you can make an exception because … the dead will not reveal any secrets."
"Shameless boasting!" Calder rushed toward Chen Rui. At this moment, there was a sudden burst of light in his sight. The cloaked man's body flashed with an incomparably bright light. Even the 2 purple moons seemed to be overshadowed by this star-like brilliance.
Calder's rushing figure was repelled by a powerful force. His body flew out uncontrollably and fell to the ground awkwardly.
The light gradually faded, and a figure wearing a full set of armor appeared in front of Calder and Loki. This armor looked simple and unadorned. It was flowing with a little soft light like stardust.
Loki felt the powerful breath, and he showed a vigilant look. The power in his body was condensing crazily.
As soon as Calder got up from the ground, he felt a blur in front of him. The armored man had already appeared in front of him, then his throat was tightened. He was already held by the opponent. With his strength of the early stage of the Demon Emperor, he actually had no resistance.
A large number of flowing fire clouds appeared around Calder's body, and the surrounding space seemed to have fallen into a burning world. He was obviously using his territory power at the critical moment.
However, it was still useless.
The fire clouds seemed to be affected by some kind of scorching power breath, and they suddenly became extremely weak. Immediately afterward, the palm covered in armor just exerted force, and Calder heard the sound of his neck being broken. Almost at the same time, a terrifying force penetrated into his body. Not only his body, but his will was instantly defeated, and he completely lost consciousness.
Chen Rui let go of his hand, and Calder collapsed to the ground like mud. In the [Summer Territory] cast by the [Royal Star Transformation], the soul of this villain who betrayed his benefactor and brother was completely annihilated in the blink of an eye.
