On that day, a major event that shocked the entire human world broke out in the Blue Brilliance Empire's capital, Vestian.
The cause was an eye-catching wedding, but no one expected that Arthur, the third prince of the Long Huang Empire, who came to Vestian to marry Pearl Princess Rambis, publicly refused to marry Rambis at the engagement ceremony!
Whether it was for Rambis or the entire Rayo Empire, this was a great humiliation. The Blue Brilliance Empire's Emperor Kovalonte was slapped in the face in front of everyone.
The enraged Emperor Kovalonte turned hostile on the spot and ordered the imperial guards to arrest Arthur. Prince Arthur, who felt guilty, stopped his guards from doing anything. He allowed the imperial guards to arrest him and put him in prison.
As the first beauty of the empire, Pearl Princess Rambis became the focus of the whole incident. After Arthur was imprisoned, Princess Rambis angrily cut off her beautiful shoulder-length hair and swore that she would never marry.
When the news spread, everyone was in an uproar. Princess Rambis, who had been a widow for seven years, finally waited for her fiancé, Arthur, to reappear. However, she encountered such a thing at the engagement ceremony!
For a while, all kinds of anecdotes about Arthur and Rambis were dug out. So, everyone knew that when Prince Arthur was still studying in Starlight Academy, he had been in love with Veronica, a teacher at the time, who was also a noble lady of the Rayo Empire.
Although she was a noble lady, in the huge Blue Brilliance Empire's royal family, Veronica was only a relatively poor branch. Her parents died early, and she did not have any special background or power. Under the special request of Rex The Great of the Long Huang Empire, Veronica became a victim of political transactions and was forced to marry the first prince of the Long Huang Empire, Sophistry, who was far older than her father.
Prince Arthur rushed back to the Long Huang Empire and begged his father, Rex, for three days and three nights. In the end, he fell seriously ill, but he could not stop this political marriage full of tragic love. What was even more tragic was that soon after Veronica married the prince, she became a real widow and could not return to the Rayo Empire.
It was said that this time, Arthur refused the marriage vow at the engagement ceremony, saying, "I'm sorry, you know who I love, I won't marry you." So, it was obvious that the person Arthur loved should be Veronica.
However, no matter what, Princess Rambis was innocent. She was the biggest victim. Many people sighed when they learned that the most beautiful princess had broken her will and vowed not to marry for the rest of her life.
Just when everyone was feeling indignant for Princess Lambis, another shocking thing happened.
On the second night, the prison where the "heartless" Prince Arthur was imprisoned was raided by a large number of mysterious people. In the fierce battle, there was a violent explosion in the prison. At that time, Cardinal Glalin of the Holy Mountain of Light and Second Prince Victor, who were on their way to visit Prince Arthur, also experienced this terrible disaster. Glalin was seriously injured and fainted.
The whole prison was destroyed by the terrible power, including Arthur. There was news that the prince might have been kidnapped by the mysterious people, and there was also news that Prince Arthur had unfortunately died in the explosion. Prince Arthur's guardians were working separately, urgently investigating the news. Proyo, as the representative of the diplomatic group, stayed in Vestian to prepare for a series of negotiations.
After investigation and confirmation, the mysterious people were the followers of the evil sect who were arrested by the Church of Light. The main purpose of the raid on the prison of the Rayo Empire was to take revenge on a large stronghold of the evil sect that the Rayo Empire had wiped out in the territory some time ago, and to use this to incite the conflict between the Rayo Empire and the Long Huang Empire.
The most troublesome one was Emperor Covalont. The nature of this incident was much more serious than the rejection of the marriage. He imprisoned Arthur in the prison as a way to save his face. He was prepared to demand an explanation from the Long Huang Empire, but he did not expect to encounter such an unexpected incident. Now that Arthur's life was uncertain, the most optimistic outcome was that he was kidnapped, but he had to prepare for the worst. No matter what, something happened to Arthur in the Rayo Empire, and it happened after he was imprisoned. Now it was not him demanding an explanation from the Long Huang Empire, but the Rayo Empire had to give an explanation to the Long Huang Empire. The only thing he could do now was to find Arthur. This was the only way to break out of this predicament and regain the initiative.
Other than Proyo of the diplomatic group, there was also the Cardinal Glalin. As one of the witnesses, he had fought with the attackers and could confirm that they were the Church's biggest enemy, the Black Death Apostles. This was definitely not some escape plan of Prince "Arthur", but a real accidental attack!
"Arthur" was the "Holy Son" appointed by the Third Angel Raphael. He had actually been attacked by the Black Death Apostles right under his nose, and it was very likely that he was already dead!
Damned heathens!
Glalin disregarded his heavy injuries and rushed to Yagda the moment he woke up. He returned to the Holy Mountain through the portal and reported this incident to Pope Fandis. Arthur was the recognized master of the Crown of Thorns. After losing the Snow Dallet Tree, the Crown of Thorns played an irreplaceable role. Now that Arthur had obtained the Holy Grail, this attack would have a far-reaching impact on the Church. It was certain that even a Supreme Angel like Raphael would be alerted.
The news of the Third Prince "Arthur" publicly rejecting the marriage and being attacked by the Black Death Apostles in the prison quickly spread to the Long Huang Empire, causing an uproar.
The Dragon Brilliance Emperor Rex had a special bloodline sense and could clearly sense whether Arthur was dead or alive. However, he did not give any response and even rejected the Second Prince Garfield's request to temporarily take over the Jinyao Territory. He only ordered to search for Prince Arthur's whereabouts.
Just as all the forces were racking their brains to find Prince "Arthur", Chen Rui was at another place that could not be any safer, the Island of Storms.
Glalin had guessed wrongly. This was "Arthur's" plan. Due to the deal with the Holy Grail, the public rejection of the marriage at the wedding was in accordance with Rambis's plan. It was to create a tragic identity for her. Not only would she be able to legitimately obtain the title of celibacy, it would also cut off some people's thoughts and win the sympathy of the people. For a competitor like the Second Prince Victor, it was no different than a blow to the head.
The disappearance caused by the attack of the Black Death Apostles was Chen Rui's original plan. It was just that he used the opportunity of being locked up in the prison to make some changes. Even Rambis did not know the truth.
The biggest feature of this plan was that the attackers were not imposters, but real Black Death Apostles. This was a big killing operation of the Black Death Apostles in the Eastern Diocese. The planner was the Archbishop of the Eastern Diocese, Solange. The one who personally participated and commanded the operation was the mysterious church's First Guardian of the Eastern Diocese, "Shura"!
This operation was "successful" and successfully killed Arthur, making a great contribution. Shura should have the opportunity to further gain Solange's trust and use this opportunity to get in touch with the higher-ups of the Black Death Apostles. Now, Shura's mission was not only to steal faith and master the mysterious church's information. He had a more important mission, which was to find and destroy the main altar of the three masters of the Abyss!
Although the Silver Moon Immortal defeated Quiriana and completely destroyed the abyss channel of the Tree of Nature, the huge threat of the Abyss Tribe to the entire world had not been fundamentally eliminated. He must not let his guard down.
Next to Chen Rui were Rolla, Paglio, and Dodo. They were all "carried" by Chen Rui into the Super System using the fusion state of the Sealed Star Platform. At the moment before the prison exploded, they came to the Storm Island through the [Star Gate].
The reason why Chen Rui chose the Storm Island as the star point was because in the Illusory Forest, after Rolla was lucky enough to draw the artifact, the Crown of the Elemental Goddess, the legendary prophet of the elves, Alucier, once said, "Bring it to see the master of the elements. You will have an unexpected gain."
Although Alucier had the attributes of deceiving others, the ability of prediction was by no means a scam. Chen Rui took Rolla and the other two straight to the Cloud Palace of the wind elementals and met the Wind Elemental King Seth.
The Wind Elemental King immediately felt the changes in Rolla's body. This fairy dragon with a 6-elemental kingdom once fought against Demi-God at the peak of her kingdom, leaving a deep impact on Seth. How long has it been now? She has actually broken through to Demi-God, and her power aura is quite stable. Rolla advanced to Demi-God in the battle with the elves' Demi-God powerhouse, Tulsa. During the time when Chen Rui was "recuperating", Rolla stayed in the Mage Tower Forest. With the help of Tulsa, she stabilized her kingdom step by step.
Whether it was Chen Rui or Rolla, they both had extraordinary identities for the elves. Tulsa naturally had no reason to refuse, not to mention that Rolla, who was also an early Demi-God, was also a rare training opponent. In the later learning and sparring, Tulsa and Rolla, who were good at all kinds of research and magic circles, regretted not meeting each other earlier. The 2 women even established a considerable friendship.
When Rolla showed the Crown of the Elemental Goddess under Chen Rui's signal, Seth was greatly moved. The Wind Elemental King looked at the fairy dragon with a strange look for a long time, and he finally nodded with certainty.
This attitude made the fairy Miss Long confused. Even Chen Rui didn't understand what was going on. Seth did not answer, but he asked Chen Rui and others to stay on Storm Island for the time being and not leave for the next few days.
3 days later, the "answer" seemed to be revealed. When Chen Rui and Rolla were invited to the Cloud Palace again, there were already 2 guests waiting in the hall.
Fire Elemental King Ogmarton, Light Elemental King Delcus, plus the "host" Seth, the 3 Light Kings were all here!
"This … Miss Rolla, can you show me your Crown of the Elemental Goddess?" Ogmarton was the most impatient. Before Seth could speak, he asked the fairy dragon anxiously.
Rolla had already been instructed by Chen Rui, so she didn't mind the other party's rudeness. The exquisite crown appeared on her head. The eyes of the 3 Elemental Kings all focused on her, including Seth who had seen the Crown of the Elemental Goddess.
Light Elemental King Delcus said, "Miss Rolla, can you take a look at your 6 Elemental Kingdom power again?"
A light appeared on the fairy dragon's fingertips. This light was soft and warm. It looked translucent, but it faintly revealed 6 colors as it flickered.
Although it was just a simple light, the 3 Elemental Kings had already seen the level of power contained in this light with their eyesight and perception.
"6 elemental source power. It can be called a perfect fusion!" Ogmarton praised. He now naturally understood who the beneficiary of Chen Rui's efforts to obtain the elemental source power from the Elemental Kings was.
Delcus pondered for a moment, quickly exchanged glances with the 2 kings, and asked, "Miss Rolla, it seems that you not only have the most perfect 6 Elemental Kingdom, but you have also been recognized by the Crown of the Elemental Goddess … Do you want to get a higher level of power?"
Higher? Higher than Demi-God? Rolla's eyes lit up, and she nodded.
"Power and responsibility coexist, so are you also ready to accept greater responsibility?"
Rolla was startled. The legendary prophet said the same thing when she got the Crown of the Elemental Goddess. She turned to look at Chen Rui, and the latter smiled. In this smile, Rolla saw many things. So, the fairy dragon also smiled and didn't say much. She just nodded to the 3 Elemental Kings again.
There was nothing to express determination or long speech, but the 3 Light Kings clearly saw the unwavering faith in her eyes. After looking at each other for a moment, the 3 Elemental Kings seemed to have made some important decision.
"It is still uncertain whether Miss Rolla chose fate or fate chose her. What is certain is that she and the Crown of the Elemental Goddess chose each other." Delcus' words had an incomprehensible profound meaning, "You'd better take her to meet the 3 Kings of Darkness again. I believe it will be a surprise. But before that, you should try to get another important thing together, the origin fragment. "
Chen Rui's spirit was refreshed. Currently, 4 of the 6 origin fragments had returned to the corresponding Elemental King. There were still 2 missing – the earth origin fragment and the fire origin fragment.
The whereabouts of the fire origin fragment were unknown. As for the whereabouts of the earth origin fragment, only the Fire Elemental King, Ogmarton, knew. In the last meeting between Chen Rui and the 3 Light Kings, Ogmarton put forward a condition, that was to use the fire origin fragment in exchange for the whereabouts of the earth origin fragment.
"I will tell you the location of the earth origin fragment now," said the Fire Elemental King very happily without mentioning the previous condition at all.
Chen Rui nodded and said sincerely, "Thank you, Your Highness Ogmarton. I solemnly promise that I will try my best to find the fire origin fragment and strive to hand it over to you before the next Elemental War."
"I feel that this verbal promise is more credible than the last deal. You are a good friend." Ogmarton smiled, and the other 2 Elemental Kings also smiled, "You do need to try your best to find the fire origin fragment, but not for the Elemental War. Compared with the significance of gathering the 6 origin fragments, the Elemental War is simply insignificant."
Insignificant? The Elemental War is related to the fall of the Elemental King. Once they fall, it is unknown how many years it will take for them to be reborn. This has always been the most important thing for the kings.
Could it be that as long as the origin fragments are gathered, it doesn't matter who falls?
The Wind Elemental King saw Chen Rui's surprise and nodded, "Yes, this is the most important thing. My friend, you don't have to be confused. As long as the time is right, all the mysteries will be revealed."
