Culia asked a man next to him. This man should be a Great Demon with a mutated bloodline. He had a human appearance, light brown hair, slightly dark skin, relatively handsome facial features, and a bit of vicissitudes in his temperament. However, his eyes looked lazy. He was lying on the chair as if he didn't hear Culia's question.
"Lennon!" Culia asked again with dissatisfaction, "You're knowledgeable. What do you think about this spirit dragon?"
Lennon reluctantly poured the last glass of wine and took a sip. Then, he said, "Some necromancers or lich can use dark magic to drive the dead to become controlled undead creatures, but this kind of magic has high requirements for one's own spirit power. If the power of the undead creature exceeds the limit of one's own spirit power, one will suffer a strong backlash or even collapse of spirit power."
Culia nodded slightly. Seeing that Lennon started to drink by himself again and didn't continue, he frowned and said, "I know all these common sense that you said. I'm asking for your opinion!"
"My Miao Fruit Wine is gone. This is the most attractive thing in Town Leia …" Lennon shook the empty wine bottle. "I know you still have stock. Give me a bottle."
Culia was so angry that he almost lost his temper. If it was Yagus, he would've smashed the bottle. However, this Lennon wasn't simple. Although his strength was ordinary, even his leader valued him very much. He even repeatedly told Chen Rui not to neglect him.
This time, Lennon took the initiative to follow Culia. The reason was that this guy seduced the young wife of Town Leia's mayor, Old Kander. As a result, the adultery was exposed, and he was wanted by the entire town. He was chased all day long, so he had no choice but to come to Mountain Xilang to avoid trouble. However, Culia could be sure that this guy still had a lot of wine. He was just squeezing out his stock.
Lennon took the bottle that Culia threw over with a gloomy face. Then, he smiled, but it was more like he was smiling at the bottle instead of Culia.
"It's very simple. This spirit dragon is either a real monster that mutated from Dragons or an undead creature that is controlled by someone. No matter which one, you can't afford to offend it. "
Nonsense! Culia's expression was stagnant, then he heard Lennon said, "However, judging from the spirit dragon's Dragon's Demeanor at the entrance of the main pit, its strength should be weaker than imagined. If it is the Dragon's Demeanor of a real dragon, your men will not only fall, but they will also lose the strength to escape. How can they survive until now? Of course, this could also be understood as the weakening of the mutated ability or other reasons. In my opinion, the Spectre Dragon was more of a warning, forbidding others from approaching the main pit area. Those who died were those who approached or entered there, such as the Three-headed Dog and the two Higher Demons. "
In fact, according to the Thief, there were still a few suspicious points, but Lennon was too lazy to say more.
Culia thought it made sense. Anyway, the purpose of the Red Devils occupying the mining office wasn't to mine, so it didn't matter how chaotic the main pit was. However, Barnacle would definitely blame Sully and Yagus for their deaths. If he knew it earlier, he wouldn't have stayed for three more days. The leader, him, Barnacle, and Sully were actually from two different factions. If Barnacle's faction wanted to pursue the matter to the end, even the leader couldn't protect him.
In fact, even if he came back earlier, he couldn't do anything when he encountered this kind of thing. Maybe he would be killed by the Spectre Dragon like Sully and Yagus. Now it depended on how to minimize the responsibility.
I got it! Mining office! An idea flashed in Culia's mind. Originally, Yagus's task was to kill the human who was the new mining officer. Now that Sully and Yagus were dead, this task would be completed by him. He could also use his credit to shut those people's mouths.
It was getting late, and it was tiring to rush all the way here. Let's have a good rest today and figure out the specific situation at the mining office first. Anyway, those people couldn't stir up any trouble, so let the human live for one or two more days.
While Culia was thinking, Lennon stood up and stretched, "I'm exhausted. Please find a place for me to have a good sleep. Although there's no annoying guy like Old Kander here, the conditions are really bad."
Culia was thinking that his plan worked, so he was in a good mood. He was too lazy to argue with Lennon, so he asked someone to arrange an empty room in the residential area at the foot of the mountain for him. Although the conditions of the mining office on the mountainside were better, the power of the "Spectre Dragon" was still there. Even if it was Culia himself, he didn't dare to live there. The bonfire in the residential area was still there, but the noise was much quieter than before. The vigilance was also doubled to guard against the possible dangers of the main pit at the top of the mountain.
The night was getting darker, the sound was getting quieter, and the lights in the residential area were extinguished one after another. A figure in a cloak fell silently from the sky and landed in front of the main pit. The "rope" that could move and extend automatically turned into an onion and jumped on his shoulder. This person was, of course, Chen Rui.
The ores in the storage warehouse had all been transformed by him. The ores that turned waste into treasure were also hidden far away by him riding the wyvern while he was "hunting". Now that the warehouse was basically empty, he had to "replenish" the next batch of goods.
From Gade, Chen Rui also learned some news about the Red Devils. Now that there was the aftermath of the spirit dragon, the bandits wouldn't approach the main pit for a while. However, the longer it dragged on, the easier it would be for the truth of the spirit dragon to be revealed. Even if they only found out that there was a problem with the waste pit, it was likely that they would suspect the mining office, so they had to hurry to transport the ores away.
Culia should have returned by now. To be careful, Chen Rui used Dodo to land like last time. He didn't let the wyvern land directly at the entrance of the main pit to avoid being discovered.
After Chen Rui entered the main pit, he took out the magic compass that he had prepared. The magic compass was different from the magic map. The magic map had a wide range, and it could be freely enlarged and imitated, but it must be an area that had been explored. It was convenient for long-distance exploration or action. The magic compass was a powerful tool for exploring unknown areas, especially mazes. Moreover, it could clearly show the terrain structure of a small range, and it could be noted and marked. It was very convenient.
Chen Rui used the magic compass to mark the location of the waste ores room last time. Now that he was familiar with the route, he quickly found the waste ores room. He could vaguely see some traces of the previous battle.
Chen Rui opened the storage warehouse and scoured the ground again. However, the huge pit in the waste ores room was still not bottomless. It seemed that the reserves were still above his imagination. After all, the accumulation of more than 400 years was no small matter, even if it was just waste ores.
After the storage warehouse was full, he didn't stay. He walked all the way out of the main pit. There was no one around. As he was about to leave, a prompt suddenly appeared in < Analytical Eyes >: Sloth Royal Family, Comprehensive Strength Assessment: C, Physique unknown, Strength unknown, Spirit unknown, Agility unknown.
Sloth Royal Family! The name sounded ridiculous, but in fact, it was not ridiculous at all!
Chen Rui now knew that the Demon Realm originally had 7 royal empires. Now there were only 3 left, which were the rulers of the 3 empires.
"Pride" Royal Family – Surname: Lucifer.
"Greed" Royal Family – Surname: Mammon.
"Lust" Royal Family – Surname: Asmodeus.
However, there were still 4 royal families that either disappeared or attached themselves to the 3 empires:
"Sloth" Royal Family – Surname: Belphegor.
"Envy" Royal Family – Surname: Leviathan.
"Wrath" Royal Family – Surname: Samuel.
"Gluttony" Royal Family – Surname: Beelzebub.
The 7 royal families had great potential far beyond ordinary Demons. Each had its own special bloodline power. Moreover, they also had war pressure on ordinary Demons during battle, which could suppress the opponent's power.
The Sloth Royal Family hiding nearby was a descendant of the Belphegor Royal Family. Although the Belphegor Royal Family had declined and rarely appeared in the Demon Realm, a royal family was still a royal family. Not to mention, it was a C-level strength: Demon King level!
To be on the safe side, when he first entered the main pit, Chen Rui activated [Analytical Eyes]. At that time, he didn't find anyone. This person should have arrived later. Judging from the position, he was lurking in the shadow of the big rock in front of him. If it weren't for the hint of [Analytical Eyes], he wouldn't have noticed anything with his own perception ability.
Chen Rui was very surprised. In front of this Demon King level powerhouse, his strength was indeed not enough. Suddenly, he thought of the ring given by Jía. With a thought, "Dark Will" had automatically appeared on the ring finger of his left hand. This ring should be the secret treasure of the Lucifer Royal Family. It was easy to be recognized when worn on the hand, which would attract unnecessary coveting or trouble. Therefore, it had been kept in the storage warehouse. Anyway, the storage warehouse was safe and convenient. He could quickly store and store items with his mind.
With this treasure for escaping in hand, Chen Rui finally had more confidence. He adjusted the cloak and the mask on his face. He slowly gathered the Star Power in his body and said in a hoarse voice, "Come out."
The shadow still didn't respond. [Analytical Eyes] hinted that the person's position had instantly moved from the shadow of the rock to behind the tree in another direction. However, Chen Rui was sure that this person wasn't from the Great Demon Clan.
Speed! Terrifying speed, comparable to the talent of a Great Demon!
If the other party wasn't still within the effective range of [Analytical Eyes], Chen Rui wouldn't be able to determine this person's position at all.
Is this the strength of a Demon King? No, even Paglio didn't have this speed when he suppressed his power to Demon King level!
This person is definitely not Culia or Barnacle. Could it be the leader of the Red Devils?
Chen Rui was secretly vigilant. He turned his head to look behind the tree and said faintly, "Is there still a need to hide?"
As Chen Rui said that, his eyes focused on the back of the tree. However, he only felt that his vision was slightly blurred like an illusion. [Analytical Eyes] showed that the other party had already appeared in front of him.
Too fast!
"With the strength of a Higher Demon, you can actually discover me." The figure praised with interest, "What an incredible ability."
Usually, when Chen Rui wore the cloak and appeared as Aguile, he always subconsciously put away the passive characteristic of "concealment" and faintly revealed the breath of the Mizar state. This habit was very good as it could avoid some unnecessary suspicions. Therefore, this person could tell that he was a "Higher Demon" at a glance.
Chen Rui asked, "Who are you? Why are you here? "
"Interesting guy." The person laughed. The voice belonged to a man, but his back was facing the moonlight, so he couldn't see his face clearly, "I should be the one asking you. Who are you? Why did you walk out of the main pit? "
Chen Rui asked tentatively, "Are you from the Red Devils?"
"I have nothing to do with these people, although the leader wants to invite me to join them." There was a wine bottle in the man's hand and he took a sip. "I only have three hobbies: liquor, gambling, and beauties. The stronger the liquor, the better. The more exciting the gambling, the better. As for beauties … married ones are preferred. Widows are the best. "
Chen Rui felt a chill when he heard that: Good liquor, gambling, and beauties! And he's actually a wife-con and widow-con! What kind of superb royal family is this guy!
