Late at night, the loud noise from the magic store in the Dark Moon City woke up the nearby Demons. Then, the roar that followed could be heard by almost the entire street, "Royce! How dare you ruin Master Allen's business! I will destroy this magic store today! "
Royce's angry shout came from afar, "Mikas!"
Mikas, who destroyed the magic store, didn't dare to continue fighting when he heard this voice. He disappeared in the blink of an eye. When Royce rushed to the magic store, the surviving lich, Grougi, pointed at the direction where Mikas escaped in fear.
…
After a while.
At the city gate, Mikas' high-speed running figure stopped. Ganke was Allen's subordinate, so he naturally recognized this Karon Family's Higher Demon. As he shouted "Sir Mikas", he saw Mikas throwing a space bracelet in front of all the soldiers. Ganke quickly caught it.
"I'm blocked by Royce on my way back. Give this to Master Allen right now! Inside is what I got from the magic store … "
Before he finished speaking, Royce's voice sounded from behind, "Mikas, you bastard, I'm going to kill you!"
Mikas didn't have time to say more. His figure moved like a gust of wind and disappeared at the city gate in the blink of an eye. As Ganke put away the bracelet, he saw Royce's figure appearing in front of him instantly. He was shocked. Fortunately, Royce was eager to catch up with Mikas, so he didn't "pay attention" to such a small character. His figure moved and disappeared instantly.
…
Another period of time passed.
Royce appeared at the city gate. He looked a little dispirited with a few wounds on his body, but he disappeared instantly.
Ganke had already rushed to Eren's mansion and handed the space bracelet to Eren. Eren opened it and saw a lot of magic equipment inside. After listening to Ganke's story, he felt strange: Isn't Mikas chasing after Aguile? Why did he have a dispute with Royce? Could these things be snatched from the magic store? However, Mikas did a good job. There were two expensive and superb magic equipment inside. They were not for sale, and he had been coveting them for a long time. He actually got them this time. It seemed that he was really tactful. However, Joseph wasn't in the Dark Moon now, so he had to think of a way to settle this matter.
At that moment, a strange sound of metal colliding suddenly came from the door, "Karon Family's guy! Get out here! "
A succubus maid hurriedly reported, "Not good! Master Allen, Arux and Royce are here, and they even brought Sir Mikas' corpse. "
Mikas is dead! This news shocked Allen. He felt that things were getting stranger and stranger. For a moment, he couldn't figure it out. He angrily slapped the table and said, "Damn it, who can tell me what happened?"
Tonight was destined to be a lively and sleepless night.
The next morning, the entire Anyue City was in an uproar, discussing the series of events that happened last night.
Something shocking happened in the arena last night. No. 64, Aguile, defeated Reka and publicly exposed the ugly behavior of Sheriff Allen and Balrog Reka for cheating in the fight. As a result, Reka was killed by Arux. Arux, the owner of the arena, then announced a surprising news. One day after a month, Aguile would directly challenge Arux himself.
However, these were only the beginning of the shock. When Aguile left the arena, he was retaliated by Allen and was chased by the Karon Family's Higher Demon, Mikas. At that time, he happened to be seen by the financial officer, Joseph. Alvin's subordinate, Royce. For the challenge that his good friend, Arux, announced in public, Royce stopped Mikas from killing Aguile.
Who knew that Mikas injured Royce with fire poison when he was unprepared. At that moment, Aguile had already taken the opportunity to escape. Mikas failed to chase after him, so he vented his anger on the magic store that Royce was in charge of. He destroyed the magic store and ransacked it. The angry Royce didn't care about his poison injury. He chased Mikas all the way to the outside of the city and killed Mikas with his sword. Before that, Mikas had already passed all the treasures that he robbed from the magic store to Sheriff Allen through the city gate guard, Ganke, in a space bracelet. The guards could testify about this.
Royce was poisoned, so he found Arux. He brought Mikas's corpse and fought all the way to Allen's mansion, injuring many people. Even the Karon Family's strongest Higher Demon, Salado, was alarmed. Salado and Arux had a big fight, and both of them were injured in the end. Royce and Arux returned to the arena to recuperate, while Salado retrieved Mikas's corpse. The relationship between both parties was extremely tense now.
When Mikas wreaked havoc in the magic store last night, if Royce didn't arrive in time, the lich, Grougi, in the store would almost be killed. Many residents nearby also heard the noise of destruction and Royce's roar. Many people described the situation vividly. What's more, it was as if they witnessed the battle between Mikas and Royce with their own eyes. As for the subsequent battle between Salado and Arux, there were even more witnesses. There were still shocking traces of destruction around the gate of Sheriff Allen's mansion.
The two major forces in the city were at loggerheads, and a battle might break out at any time. As the lord of the Dark Moon, Princess Royal Jía naturally couldn't sit back and watch. She specially sent Gauss to mediate and ordered both parties not to have a large-scale fight openly in the city.
Although it was a mediation, the happiest party was actually the one who mediated. When the cunning Old Gauss was "mediating", he also appropriately used some technical wording. On the surface, he was restricting both parties, but in fact, he was quietly provoking them.
Chen Rui, who had been busy for most of the night, didn't recuperate in the lab. Instead, he appeared in the council hall of the palace.
"Chen Rui?" Jía hadn't seen him for a month, and there was a hint of joy in her eyes. She nodded and said, "You're here. Did you hear about the big event last night? This is really a godsend opportunity! "
"Why does Princess Royal also believe in godsend? I'd rather believe in man-made. Even the legendary Goddess of Luck will always favor those who are prepared. " Chen Rui smiled slightly, "I'm here today because I have two important things to report to Princess Royal."
Jía was so smart that she faintly understood the meaning of his words. The sudden conflict between Allen and Joseph actually had an inside story. She recalled that Chen Rui once planned the strategy of "driving the tiger to swallow the wolf". Her eyes flashed with brilliance and returned to calmness, "Say it."
Chen Rui looked serious, "Princess Royal, please forgive me for asking a rude question. Are you willing to give your true trust to me?"
"You have gained my true trust." Jía frowned slightly, "Just say it."
"That's good." Chen Rui nodded, "I'll introduce someone to you. He may not meet you, but please trust him as much as you trust me."
"Who?"
"The real protagonist of last night's incident, Aguile!"
The real protagonist! Jía was shocked. The cause of last night's incident was because No. 64, Aguile, publicly exposed Allen in the arena. Later, it evolved into a battle between the two forces. If there were no follow-up incidents, then Aguile, who challenged Arux a month later, would become the new focus of the entire Dark Moon City. However, Aguile now was just a small character who happened to be in the big event.
From Chen Rui's tone, Aguile was the real key figure of last night's "incident"! Almost everyone had overlooked this point!
"It's fine as long as Princess Royal understands this matter. The second thing was also discovered by Aguile. Princess Royal may already know about the Cloak Gang replacing Silva. He discovered another important thing about the Blue Lava Estate. Princess Royal, please stay calm after listening. "
Blue Lava Estate? Jía was a little curious. When she heard Chen Rui talk about Silva smuggling people to the Blue Lava Estate and saw the badge that allowed her to pass the bandits safely, she suddenly stood up. Her eyes flashed with uncontrollable anger, "The Lord of the Blue Lava Estate, Titan, once angered the Lord of Midnight Sun back then. He was almost deprived of his estate and surname. Fortunately, my father, Grimm, interceded and vouched for him, so he was exempted from punishment. Even after my father died of illness, he expressed his support to me many times. I didn't expect him to do this kind of shady business secretly! "
"Princess Royal, please calm down!" Chen Rui stood up and said solemnly, "The Dark Moon's current situation is bad. We can't act rashly. We must be patient! On the surface, we should continue to maintain the "friendship" with the Blue Lava Estate and solve the most important food problem as soon as possible. As for the bandits in the south, we can annihilate them at the right time … "
Chen Rui glanced at Jía who had gradually calmed down and tossed the badge in his hand, "This thing should be of great use by then."
Jía nodded slightly and asked, "How was your grand master test?"
"I've completed half of it. Although there are dangers in front, it is generally smooth. The real test is at the back. I can take a good rest in these 2 days." The injury on Chen Rui's right chest was quite serious. Although he took the Jade Pearl and healing potion, he only slept for a few hours last night, so he had not fully recovered yet. However, with the characteristics of [Astral Form], he should be able to recover completely in 2 days.
"By the way, the magic dust is very magical. The little dwarf's ability is also good. The originally barren soil can be successfully planted with crops after being transformed by this dust. Not only the maturity period is shortened several times, but the output is also greatly increased. I have asked Gauss to choose a remote wasteland on the edge of the estate to start planting food on a large scale. Once it is successful, then the Dark Moon can solve the biggest problem for thousands of years. It can even change from a barren estate that lacks food to the largest granary of the empire. It's just that the magic dust is not enough. Can you continue to produce? "
"Really? I just happened to make a lot of magic dust for backup. I'll organize it and send it to the palace later. "This sentence obviously had the suspicion of bragging.
Jía saw that he still didn't forget to "make" magic dust when he was going through the dangerous inheritance test. Her eyes showed appreciation and she said, "Also, your planning is quite good. Alice's Princess Retail Store's business is surprisingly good. Just that burr puzzle alone sold for 50,000 black crystal coins. If you need money, just ask. Half of this money is yours. "
Chen Rui shook his head, "It doesn't matter. I still have enough. The Dark Moon is in urgent need of funds for development now. Princess Royal can use the money however she wants. Don't worry."
This is the truth. I haven't really touched the large sum of money I got from Silva!
Jía looked at Chen Rui and didn't say much. She nodded lightly.
"Aguile offended Alan this time. I wonder if Princess Royal can provide the corresponding protection for the Cloak Gang. For future planning, the Cloak Gang is likely to become an important chess piece."
Jía pondered for a while and shook her head firmly, "Unfortunately, I can't trust this person."
