Devil’s Son-in-Law

Chapter 449: Nate’s True Colors

In the face of the alert from the glasses, Nate looked at Chen Rui who was still flying up and down in the air. He gritted his teeth and crushed the red lock on his cloak without hesitation. His figure disappeared instantly, and he appeared outside the gate on the 4th floor.

When Nate came out, Chen Rui had already felt it. He even clearly felt Nate’s hateful emotion. His current senses had been in line with the rhythm of the entire Demi-God territory to a very subtle level. His comprehension of law was also approaching the end.

However, Chen Rui also felt the alert from the glasses. Judging from the fact that Nate gave up his “prey” and escaped without hesitation, it was indeed urgent.

Nate’s statement that “more than a master died on the 4th floor” was by no means just to scare him. Chen Rui had sensed that a certain “law” on his cloak was fading. The sense of crisis transmitted through the “law” had suddenly increased. The time is almost up!

The protection of the cloak was almost on the verge of disintegration. Once it disintegrated, just a little breath could wipe him, the “foreign unit”, out.

This was a complete obliteration. Even with the [Regeneration] feature, he couldn’t be resurrected. Chen Rui couldn’t help holding the red lock.

However, the comprehension was almost close to completion. This kind of epiphany opportunity was really rare. Judging from the attitude that Nate had just left, even if what Chen Rui expected did not happen this time, he would probably not be allowed to come to the 4th floor next time. Even if he could come here, he might not have this kind of spiritual epiphany again.

More importantly, after learning about Fertile Yuan Soil, Chen Rui should leave the Bloody Empire capital and head to the Saxphil Mountain Range in the north to look for the Mountain Seckred.

The law of the cloak further faded, and there was a danger of collapse at any time. At the moment of life and death, Chen Rui became calm instead. He continued to maintain the mysterious state of the epiphany. The wonderful insights that it brought were condensed with unprecedented clarity. The external waves’ impact on the power within his body had reduced. It gradually formed a separate cycle like a game of its own in a chess game.

To be precise, it was a territory within a territory! And it was within the Demi-God-level territory!

Just when the last glimmer of insight was about to be completed, a “beep” lightly sounded. The whole cloak began to decay and disappear quickly at a speed visible to the naked eye. Just when the power of the territory madly annihilated the cloak and was about to wrap Chen Rui, there was an inexplicable pause suddenly. If the owner of the Demi-God-level territory could see this situation, he would be surprised: A little ant at Demon Emperor-level can actually stop such a manic Demi-God territory power?

This pause only lasted less than 2 seconds. It then surged with greater acceleration in an instant, and it “swarmed” the target’s location immediately.

At the same time, Chen Rui’s figure suddenly appeared outside the gate on the 4th floor as he gasped for breath. It could be said to be a close call just now, but he finally used that precious second to crush the lock and successfully escaped. If he was 1 second slower, even if he had Demon Overlord-level power now, he definitely couldn’t escape his fate of being annihilated.

However, he finally managed to escape. Not only that, he also gained an extremely precious insight of the basic law. There were countless Demon Overlord-level powerhouses who could not comprehend the Demi-God-level law in their lifetime. Chen Rui definitely encountered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity this time. Coupled with the massive amount of information and materials including the whereabouts of Fertile Yuan Soil, this trip to the Book Collection Hall was a huge reward.

As Chen Rui laughed loudly, his gaze turned to the gloomy Nate at the side, and his laughter did not stop.

When Nate was about to speak with a sullen face, Chen Rui had already walked over in abruptly. He said with an excited expression, “Teacher! My magic eyes are about to be mutated soon!”

There was a glimmer of light in Nate’s eyes, and he couldn’t reprimanding Chen Rui. His surprised expression was beyond words, “Really?”

“It’s true!” Chen Rui looked extremely excited. “Teacher, I sensed the magic eyes mutation signal. In addition to the original materials, I also need fire crystal sand, the best borscht rock, Fertile Yuan Soil…”

“What is Fertile Yuan Soil?” Nate frowned.

Chen Rui’s move was deliberately testing Nate. Seeing that Nate didn’t know it, he immediately changed his words, “It’s okay to lack a couple of materials. It’s just that the more materials, the chance of mutation success would be higher. They will also make the mutated magic eyes more powerful. It should be the ultimate form of magic eyes this time!”

“Except for Fertile Yuan Soil, I have the others!” Nate replied without hesitation. He was the president, so he could use privileges to retrieve 3 materials every month, but now there were so many materials that were rare. No matter how many materials they exclude, a lot of contribution points were needed. However, these were “external objects.” The value was much smaller compared with the “ultimate form” of the magic eyes.

“Great, teacher, I will wait for you in my own room. I may need some help from you in a while.”

“Okay! I’m going to the warehouse to exchange the materials now!” Nate turned around and left. He suddenly remembered something and added, “You go back to the room immediately. Just to be on the safe side, don’t tell anyone before the magic eyes are really mutated! Don’t get in contact with anyone too much on the way!”

If Master Turia said this sentence, Chen Rui would surely not have a second thought on it, but it was Nate who said this. Besides, Chen Rui also sensed some special emotional fluctuations which were intriguing.

“Don’t worry, teacher, I won’t let anyone disturb me!” Chen Rui turned around and left with the same intriguing smile on his face.

Soon after, Nate brought all the materials he could get. To be on the safe side, he also placed a “disturbance prevention” magic circle near his room.

Under Nate’s gaze, Chen Rui placed the one after another magic material in front of him. Chen Rui placed his hands on them and stared at them. In the blink of an eye, the magic materials disappeared, followed by another piece…

Nate was sure that Chen Rui didn’t have any space items in his hands. Unless it was a space magic that had been lost for many years, it was really “absorbed” by the magic eyes.

This question had an obvious answer. If this apprentice of Intermediate Demon knew space magic, wouldn’t Nate be a God powerhouse?

——The fact was that Nate was indeed not a God powerhouse, but that “apprentice” was really capable of space “magic”.

After Chen Rui “absorbed” the last piece of material, he closed his eyes. Strange fluctuations appeared in his body. Even Nate, the Great Demon King, felt very mysterious. After a long time, the fluctuations finally gradually calmed down, and “Richard” slowly opened his eyes.

“How’s it going?” Nate was holding his breath just now, and he didn’t dare to interrupt. He stepped forward and asked loudly now.

Chen Rui’s eyes glowed with scorching light, “Teacher, your power is at the intermediate stage of the Great Demon King? Oh, your strength and spirit power are both at the intermediate stage of the Great Demon King. Your speed and physical strength are at the early stage of the Great Demon King.”

Nate was shocked. My power and characteristics are actually seen through by an Intermediate Demon. So, the mutation was a complete success? After mutating, the magic eyes actually can see the power of the target!

“This should only be part of the mutated function of the magic eyes. Teacher, can you show me your space ring?” Right after he said it, Nate took it off and gave it to him without thinking. Chen Rui pretended to look at it for a while, “This ring’s baseline should be made using Prota technique. Firstly, melt it with a low-point flame, then mold it with ice jade… Finally, use the drip potting method to enchant. By the way, what are this Prota technique and drip potting method? Why do they automatically appear in my mind?”

He can even see through the production method and process? Nate’s eyes flashed with a strange light.

Although he was lacking in terms of proficiency in accessories, he was not unfamiliar with the production methods of magic items. He knew that it was not fabricated when he heard it. The excitement in his heart was simply beyond the limit: It is worthy of being the ultimate form of magic eyes. It is simply too damn good! If I can get this skill, wouldn’t I be able to directly see through any mechanics? Not only that, I can also improve my accessories skill that I have always felt difficult to master by leaps and bounds, then I can become a trio-specialized master on par with the young genius, “Arthur”?

Nate, who had already lost his mind in greed now, would never think that the so-called “ultimate mutation” was simply a lie. The previous strength [Analysis] was the “normal” function of [Analytical Eyes] while the production process behind it was real learning experiences. The poor duo-specialized master was fooled by the liar trio-specialized master.

After trying several times, Nate had no doubt about the power of the “magic eyes”.

“Awesome! I’ll go out and tell everyone!” Chen Rui showed a surprised look. Just after walking a few steps, his body suddenly softened, and he fell to the ground. “Teacher, why do I feel that my body suddenly loses strength?”

“Really?” Nate’s eyes flashed a hint of joy, “Maybe it’s over fatigue. Come, I’ll help you sit down and rest for a while.”

“Thank you, teacher.” Chen Rui allowed Nate to help him sit on the sofa slowly.

“How do you feel?”

“It seems to be getting worse. I have no strength at all. My head starts to feel dizzy…” Chen Rui leaned softly on the sofa.

Nate’s heart was determined. His voice began to change slowly, “Soon, you won’t be so uncomfortable anymore. I will free you from it.”

“Teacher, why does your smile feel terrifying…”

“All thanks to your magic eyes,” Nate suddenly laughed with an unabashed pride in his voice, “However, it will soon be mine. As long as I can have these magic eyes, I, Nate. Mammon will not only be the Demon Realm’s top mechanic master, but also the Demon Realm’s top appraisal master. In the future, I’m very likely to become the top mechanics grand master to appear in the Demon Realm for thousands of years!

Nate smiled knowingly: It’s finally the harvest time for this carefully raised prey.

Chen Rui also took a deep breath: After acting for so long, it’s time for the finale.

Just don’t let Nate die so fast 😤
