Devil’s Son-in-Law

Chapter 672 - The Fire Source Power



The contract’s light flickered for a while before gradually fading, representing the completion of the contract.

In the Blood Oath of Light and the master-subordinate contract, although the master couldn’t kill the subordinate, the power of the contract required the subordinate to be loyal to the master and never betray him. It was a commonly used high level contract in the human world.

But for Chen Rui, it was nothing more than a spiritual link that could be easily canceled at the cost of aura.

Eudora’s gaze was a little confused, “Simon, is this your real name? This kind of contract power feels a little strange to me. Have you signed a contract with anyone before?”

Chen Rui was slightly surprised. His contract power was made by a spiritual link. I remember that Shura mentioned that this contract power rule is very special. I didn’t expect that Eudora could actually sense it.

He changed his mind and explained, “I had signed an equality contract with the Pastor Mana of Town Gudam. Later, Pastor Mana was assassinated and the contract was canceled. Your Holiness’ feeling should have something to do with my special talent. It was precisely because of this I can get the soul language power of the elf tribe.”

Eudora’s real power should not have reached the real kingdomized level. The reason for the SS-level strength is probably due to the power of this Holy Blessing Hall similar to the buff of the Star Conferring Platform or [Armor of Faith]. It seems that the real Demi-God powerhouse will likely sense the special nature of the spiritual link contract. I must be cautious in the future.

Eudora thought for a moment and nodded. ‘Simon’ has a special talent. What’s more, now that the master-subordinate contract has been successfully signed, I’m not afraid of any changes in him. In the future, if I need to conclude the same contract with other more valuable people, I can just directly kill this subordinate.

In fact, the murderous intent that the Holy Lady had been hiding was kept away only at the moment Chen Rui accepted the contract. The phoenix’s egg was one of her most important secrets. If Simon’s beast taming skill could not succeed, then he would definitely be killed.

Chen Rui was only faintly aware of this kind of murder intent. Even if he didn’t sense it, he could roughly guess- Her Holiness Holy Lady is by no means an innocent beauty or a merciful goddess, but a fierce and ruthless character.

Eudora took out a small bottle which was the 1 Paul brought. Chen Rui remembered that Parsali said ‘call it even’. When Eudora opened the bottle, a dazzling red light shone from inside, and a pure and rich fire element power radiated. The entire palace was reflected in red, and the hot feeling suddenly became 100 times stronger.

The coldness of the white ball had already reached its extreme, and a faint mist emerged from Chen Rui’s body, but it had evaporated in an instant. If it hadn’t been for the legendary grade necklace given by Eudora earlier that greatly reduced the erosion of the fire power, ‘Richard’ would no longer be able to support it.

Eudora flicked slightly. A gust of liquid ‘flame’ was slowly pulled out from the bottle and turned into a circle to surround the phoenix’s egg. Eudora’s fingers began to change rapidly. Chen Rui could see that she was activating and adjusting the ancient runes near the nest. Gradually, the liquid flame condensed into symbols and. The heat was greatly reduced. Only the phoenix’s egg had a faint redness.

“This is the fire source power. You must be careful and never touch it because the power contained in the fire source power is very terrifying; it will turn you into flying ash in an instant. All you have to do is use the soul language to communicate with the life in the demonic beast’s egg and induce it to absorb the fire source power in order to hatch as soon as possible.”

“Yes, Your Holiness.” Chen Rui bowed his head. His eyes flashed with brilliance when he lowered his head: It is too unexpected, but it is an unexpected surprise! It turns out that the fire source power is in Parsali’s bottle! I found it by chance after traveling far and wide in search of it!

“Divinity Temple Knight’s most exciting team battle will begin tomorrow. In the finals, His Holiness Vantis, His Holiness Pusmeer and I will all attend. With Paul’s previous results, he will directly enter the second round of the finals. Richard, when Paul is not competing, Eliza will take you into this Hall of Flame. Eliza, if Richard needs any materials or equipment, you have to cooperate fully and report to me at any time if there is any changes. Both of you may leave now. I still need to lay out the magic circle.”

Eliza and Chen Rui left. Along the way, Eliza had put on a cloak, covering her exposed figure. She looked at Chen Rui with a smile, “Congratulations, Holy Light Guardian Knight Sir Simon. Oh, I’ll just continue calling you ‘Richard’. By the way, the guardian knight is divided into 3 levels: White Brilliance, Silver Splendor, and Holy Light. Holy Light is the highest level guardian knight. It seems that teacher attaches more importance to you than I expected. However, even if Paul wins the Divinity Temple Knight championship, he is at best a Silver Splendor Guardian Knight, so his status is lower than yours.”

Chen Rui was taken aback. That will embarrass Paul and ‘Richard’ will not be able to face Paul or they would even become enemies. Judging from the hostility between Eliza and Miranda, Holy Lady seems to be accustomed to the means of division, allowing her apprentices to ‘compete’ with each other. From a different point of view, the more divided the followers, the less threat they are, and the easier they are to control.

“Don’t worry, just tell me if you need anything in the future.” Eliza looked at his surprised look and smiled happily, “As you are now the Holy Light Guardian Knight, pursuing Miranda shouldn’t be a problem. I can’t help you much on this.”

Chen Rui’s eyes lit up and nodded, “Thank you so much, Ms. Eliza. Why are you helping me like this? Words can’t express my gratitude to you.”

“Call me Eliza.” Eliza smiled sweetly, “I like you, but don’t get me wrong, it’s a simple liking. Starting from the Garden City, you look more pleasing to the eye than those who have attempted to gain something from me. I hope to be your most trusted friend.”

“You already are, Ms. Eliza… No, Eliza.” Chen Rui cooperated with a sincere expression.

After bidding farewell to Eliza, Chen Rui returned to Holy Light City. When he walked to the Silver Villa’s room, he ran into Paul at the door.

“What did Her Holiness Holy Lady say to you?” Paul asked directly.

Chen Rui showed a hesitating expression, “Sir, please forgive me. Her Holiness has specially told me not to tell anyone.”

Paul nodded and walked out without saying anything, but his eyes were a little bit more hazy: ‘Richard’ has been so popular recently. He even attracted the attention of Her Holiness Holy Lady, asking him to stay for some important matters. On the other hand, I, as his master, seem to be ignored.

Chen Rui felt Paul’s suspicion, but he didn’t even bother to think about it. With Paul’s strength, he was just a small pawn, and his use value would soon be exhausted.

This trip to meet the Holy Lady was an unexpected gain for Chen Rui. It was not referring to the white ball and legendary grade equipment he got, but the fire source power. He initially thought that he could only get the fire source power when he found the Fire Elemental King whom he didn’t know the whereabouts of, yet the source power actually appeared in Parsali’s hands and was given to Eudora.

The fire source power was an important part of Zola’s establishment of the Kingdom of Elements, and it must be obtained. As for phoenix’s egg, Chen Rui had an idea to pack it and take it away. Although the storage warehouse of the Super System couldn’t store living things, the space equipment could store this incomplete ‘life’. It was the same for the previous manticore egg. The 2 could be regarded as complementary.

Chen Rui had to give up that little thunderbird because only he could use the [Star Gate] unless the little thunderbird could be turned back into the egg.

In the following days, Chen Rui would go to the Holy Blessing Hall every day to communicate with the phoenix’s egg in soul language according to the instructions of the Holy Lady. Of course, Eliza would lead the way and ‘assist’ every time.

In his spare time, Chen Rui also pursued the half-elf, Ms. Miranda. Miranda was very disgusted with Chen Rui without even hiding it which saved Chen Rui a lot of time. Eliza had a very close relationship with Chen Rui during this period. She also helped to come up with an idea to pursue Miranda, and she took him to wander around to relax. If Chen Rui hadn’t known her nature a long time ago, he would really think she was an enthusiastic younger sister.

With the help of this ‘enthusiastic younger sister’, in addition to clinging to Ms. Half-elf, Chen Rui also gained a clearer understanding of the terrain of the Holy Light Mountain while ‘wandering’. Unfortunately, he still couldn’t enter the hinterland of the other 2 temples.

He also had an astonishing discovery. According to Chen Rui’s observations and calculations these days, there should be a huge and complicated magic circle in the underground of the Holy Blessing Hall’s square. This magic circle could absorb and graft the faith power, transferring elsewhere’s faith power to Cherub Raphael’s statue. To put it bluntly, it is similar to Shura, stealing faith!

The difference is that they do it blatantly. The sneaky Shura pales into insignificance in comparison to this.

This finding is very intriguing. If Raphael is 1 of Light God’s archangels, what does such ‘stealing’ mean? In addition to Raphael, are Michael and Gabriel the same? Why are these Light God servants doing this?

Chen Rui faintly felt that he had revealed a corner of a great secret, but now Isabella didn’t have much time left, so it was not the time to satisfy this curiosity.

Others might not feel it, but Chen Rui, who had a Tower of Faith in [Galaxy Territory], could clearly sense the flow of faith power. The source of the faith power absorbed by the Raphael statue should be from the highest place in the Holy Light Mountain. It was very likely to be the Light Divinity Temple on the top of the Holy Light Mountain. The Light Divinity Temple was the forbidden area of ​​the Holy Light Mountain where God gives his will and displays miracles. Only the pope and 2 archbishops were eligible to enter.

That should be the place where the concentration of light faith is highest in the Holy Light Mountain and the entire human world. If Shura can steal there, even if it is only a small part, the time to obtain 1 million faith crystals will be greatly shortened.

Snow Dallet Flower! Faith power! Fire source power+phoenix’s egg! Chen Rui’s eyes flashed while counting his goals this time.

The team battle finals of the Divinity Temple Knight will be held in the arena of Holy Light City. Eudora once said that the 3 giant leaders of the Holy Light Mountain will attend the finals. At that time, the attention of the Holy Light Mountain will shift to the Holy Light City’s arena – That time will be the best time to make a move!

TL: Can he end the short trip to the human world and return to the Demon Realm?
