Devil’s Son-in-Law - Chapter 651
[Chapter 680]
Looking at the playful smile on Eliza’s young-looking face, Chen Rui’s eyes narrowed slightly. It seemed that he still underestimated this girl. It turned out that the “familiar” feeling of deja vu was not Ai. Lianne, not Alice, but… Celine.
Now he can be considered to have touched a little edge of the Church of Light. This institution that controls almost all human beliefs is above the royal power. It is huge and extremely complicated, and the internal factional struggle is particularly fierce.
Thinking back, how could the cardinal’s niece, the saint’s disciple, be a naive and innocent girl?
Not everyone is like a little princess who has an elder sister who protects her from everything; not every elder sister is like the queen who is willing to turn herself into an umbrella and completely cover her sister from outside. wind and rain (although this practice is debatable).
Chen Rui suddenly came to his senses. During the day, Eliza pointed out a series of his “origins” and asked “curiously” the story of the word of the heart. It turned out that the real intention was to explore his bottom.
It is not difficult to kill Eliza or Paul, but this is the human world, a mysterious and unpredictable world full of unknowns. Back then, the Great Emperor Bai Ye had hatred and broke his halberd, especially now that saving Isabella is the first priority. You must not act rashly until you collect Qi Faith Crystals and get cedar flowers.
Eliza is an important figure in the Church of Light, and the control technique of dark power like the God-devouring Mask will definitely not work, but for Chen Rui, Eliza is just a small character like a passer-by, and what really needs “intersection” is Paul.
Paul walked all the way and returned to his room. He was really depressed. Eliza was actually right. He pursued Joanna, and he was more interested in the Philip family behind her, but there were also some origins for Joanna. long-standing thoughts.
Finally, using Joanna’s father to provoke Samuel to fight and defeat her rival, who knows that Joanna is still infatuated with Samuel.
For him, the winner, it is not false. This time, he went to Garden City to elope with Samuel!
Eliza is right.
Regardless of the outcome of the second duel, he was the loser.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
Paul opened the door, and it turned out to be the new alternate Bright Knight “Richard”.
“Richard? It’s so late. What’s the matter?”
“Richard” showed a hesitant expression and seemed to gather up his courage to say, “Mr. Paul, I have something important to report, can you let me in and talk?”
Paul nodded and walked towards the house.
Chen Rui looked around at no one and closed the door cautiously. Then he came over and gave a salute: “Master Paul, this matter… used to make me hesitate. After thinking about it for a long time, I decided to report it to you.”
“You said Chen Rui gritted his teeth and said,
”
After I separated from the adults at the World of Warcraft Market this afternoon,
I took Miss Eliza and Joanna to the commercial district, but… Miss Eliza ordered me to go the other way. On that way. Miss Joanna met a mysterious man. The two seemed to have been talking for a long time. Judging from Miss Eliza’s warning to me, this man seemed to have an extraordinary relationship with Miss Joanna…”
“Eli Sa’s order?” Paul’s face darkened: “What does that man look like?”
“The man was wearing a cloak, so he couldn’t see his face clearly, but his eyes were sharp. In terms of stature… he was a little shorter than adults, and he seemed to be a little bit short. Thin.”
“Humph!” A haze flashed across Paul’s eyes.
If “Richard”‘s whistleblower was before Eliza spoke to him, Paul would have been furious.
Now that I have heard the news for the second time, I have calmed down a lot. Judging from the information provided by “Richard”, the man must be Samuel.
“Li Cha, didn’t you say that Miss Eliza warned you? Why did you come to tell me the news?”
Chen Rui took a deep breath: “Do you still remember the day? Miss Eliza wants to recommend me to Yang The Bright Knights branch of Shaowangdu studied with Lord Luman, the commander of the Bright Knights, but I refused. My answer was that I did not want to become a life-long priest, but a follower of a temple knight, and then took it back with my own hands. It
belongs to me.”
Paul looked directly at Chen Rui and said lightly, “I am not a temple knight.”
“It’s not now, but it will be soon! I believe in the potential of adults, and I believe in my own vision.” Chen Rui raised his head and looked at Paul, “For this, I risk everything and risk offending. Miss Eliza may risk being silenced here… Now I boldly ask the adults, am I seeing the wrong person?”
Paul saw the strong self-confidence in Chen Rui’s eyes, which was stronger than any flattery He also wanted to make him feel comfortable, and the depression in his heart was also diluted a lot, and he nodded slowly: “You are not wrong, Li Cha, you are right in this one. You have vision and courage, and you are fighting a duel. You dare to work hard on the field, but it’s not easy to become my follower, especially if your origin is unknown…”
“To be honest with you, I came from a big family in a kingdom. I swear, I am just an ordinary wanderer before I take back what belongs to me. The only thing I can tell adults is that my family is not only powerful, but also has considerable financial resources. One, I’m also prepared…”
Chen Rui said, took out a bag, and offered it with both hands: “Here is a bag of water sapphire, the total value is about fifty thousand black crystal coins, as a gift I dedicate to adults. If in the future I If I can control the family, then as a follower of the adults, I will receive the protection and support of the adults, and I will provide the adults with all the resources within my power, which is a win-win relationship.”
Paul took the bag and opened a Look, there are more than a dozen blue gems of pure color in it, and the value is definitely more than 50,000 black crystal coins. It is indeed a lot of wealth.
Paul unceremoniously put away the gemstone: “Very well, Richard, this may not be your real name, let’s just call you that. I respect your oath, I won’t ask your true origin now, wait until I become I hope our win-win relationship can last forever when the Templars take everything back for you.”
This sentence already shows Paul’s attitude, “Richard” has the ability, the courage, the ability to seize the opportunity, and also With financial resources, the mutually beneficial relationship of taking what they need is also reasonable. Such followers are real fools if they want to rush out the door.
Chen Rui was overjoyed, gave a deep bow, told Paul about the contract he signed with Mana, and asked to sign a master-slave contract with Paul after the contract was over.
This confession finally dispelled Paul’s last doubts. After Chen Rui swore allegiance to the God of Light, he encouraged him a few words. Little did he know that this whistleblower was actually second-hand information that was deliberately leaked. The supreme god of light, who came to swear, was “gnawed” by the entourage as a tonic an hour ago.
“My lord, Miss Joanna’s side…”
“The fact that you have become my follower will not be made public for the time being. Joanna, please continue to watch, don’t make any extra moves, and report anything to me in time.” Paul After thinking for a while, “Also, be careful with Eliza, she is far more difficult to deal with than you seem.”
“Miss Eliza?” Chen Rui deliberately looked surprised, then nodded, “Understood, my lord. , I won’t disturb the rest of the adults, and I will retire.” Early the
next morning, Joanna proposed to leave Garton City and return to the Longhuang Empire, and her attitude was very firm. Judging from the expressions of Joanna and Paul, the two seemed to be arguing. got one.
Eliza’s persuasion was ineffective, and Joanna insisted not to let Paul escort, so she had to let two bright knights protect Joanna south to Vegas Town, and go to Longhuang Empire Chilong City by water. Chilong City is a port city. Steven Philip is Joanna’s uncle.
Chen Rui didn’t know whether Joanna and Samuel had agreed to leave early. In any case, it was a good thing for Joanna to leave Eliza’s scheming “friend”.
For a time, Paul became the most embarrassing person, and he was not in the mood to follow Chen Rui and Eliza on the street, locking himself in the room and sulking.
Eliza seemed a little sad about the departure of her friend before, but she soon threw herself into the fun of shopping, and sometimes asked Chen Rui some strange questions on a whim. Chen Rui already knew the girl’s identity. The truth is, most of those questions are some side-by-side temptations. Obviously, Eliza has some interest (or doubts) in him as a candidate knight.
A day passed in the blink of an eye. Eliza bought a lot of things, most of which were paid by Chen Rui. Naturally, she would be reimbursed when she went back.
The number of believers in the Church of Light is innumerable, and the wealth is naturally endless.
There is a saying in Chen Rui’s hometown that in three years of Qing Dynasty, one hundred thousand snowflakes of silver.
Even in a small place like Gudan Town, Fat Mana can become a rich man, not to mention Solanton, who has been operating in Garden City for many years.
Moreover, this trip is the inspection by the superior leaders (actually it is a tour), UU reading www.
Any expenses on sonicmtl.com are spent in public funds, and there is no need for private rebates at all.
In the evening, Eliza, Sorenton, Mana, and others went to the Fragrance Manor in the south of the city. Tonight, the fat city lord Clutter invited Eliza, the church and others. There was also the last candidate event. meaning of apology.
Chen Rui was also invited, only Paul, who was in a bad mood, did not go.
The Fatty City Lord took Lord Walli and the others, and personally welcomed Eliza and the others into the manor at the gate.
Fragrance Manor is one of the famous consumption places in Garden City. It covers a large area. One of the partners behind it is actually the Fatty City Lord. The business is booming. The private rooms often need to be reserved. a considerable amount.
Just when the group walked to a corridor, a group of drunken guests came out of the room in front, and there were several waiters who supported them.
Chen Rui frowned abruptly, not because there were two B-rank people among these guests, but because of murderous aura.
Suddenly, a sudden change occurred, the lights nearby went out all at once, and all of a sudden, shouts, exclamations, breaking of the air, and whistling sounded in unison.
