Devil’s Son-in-Law

Chapter 17 Challenge! Crisis in Ardas

Remember for a second

Darkmoon City, a residential hall somewhere.

Allen listened to Gangke's report with a livid face and asked, "Athena really said that the human is her friend?"

Gangke replied with lingering fears: "Yes, General! Many soldiers saw it at that time, and Lord Athena still attacked me in front of everyone, and I almost lost my life."

"Damn human! What exactly did Athena see in him?" Allen said through gritted teeth, only to feel jealous. Athena was never fake to him as a sheriff, and didn't even look at him. , Now it is unbearable to actually call that human being who I have only known for a while as a friend, and to stand up for him.

"Okay, Gangke, you go down." Another faint voice in the hall rang.

"Yes, Lord Joseph." Gangke's respect for this man was no less than that of his immediate boss, Alan, he bowed and bowed back.

"My friend, I really don't know what makes you so obsessed with that savage woman. If you want a woman, you can just grab a bunch of them. Would you like me to send you some superb succubus slaves?" Joseph said After drinking a glass of wine, he said slowly.

Joseph has the appearance of a human, and he should be of a mutant bloodline. He looks elegant and calm, completely different from Aaron's violent martial arts temperament.

"Hmph, no need." Allen snorted coldly, "Aren't you also interested in the eldest princess? It's just that although His Royal Highness Shia is beautiful, he is a piece of ice and has no interest, and I don't understand why you are like her?"

Stupid stuff, my likes, different from yours! Joseph sneered in his heart, his face still light and calm: "Just like you, everyone has different hobbies. I just returned to Darkmoon City, and I still don't know the origin of that human named Chen Rui?"

"Just an unbelievably lucky waste!" Allen gritted his teeth and said, "This human being fell into the demon world about ten days ago and was captured by the soldiers. During the interrogation, he changed his name to Arthur. He was a noble with no fighting ability. He was taken away by Master Ardas as a test drug, but after a few days he miraculously became Ardas' apprentice, and his identity was publicly recognized by His Highness Shia. I don't know what is attractive about this guy, Ah Xena and the little princess went to him almost every day."

Joseph thought for a moment and said, "In this way, his biggest reliance is the attention of the dark elf master. I know the little princess very well, but I'm just curious. The eldest princess should also do this to win over Ardas. Just do it. It's just that Ardas can't protect himself now, and will soon leave Darkmoon City. At that time, this human being will lose its value. Even if you want to chop him into seven or eight sections, the eldest princess will not stop you. ."

"If the one in the imperial capital makes a move, Ardas will undoubtedly lose." Allen turned his anger into joy, nodded, and raised a glass to Joseph: "You are right, come, toast!"

In the Ardas laboratory in the outer courtyard of the palace, after the three daughters of Alice left, only Ardas and Chen Rui were left in the laboratory.

Ardas took out a thick book, "Refinement Essentials", "Commonly Used Pharmacy Formulas", "Poison Supplement"...

"Chen Rui, these books are all for you." The dark elf sighed, "In the future, when I'm not by your side, you must study hard. Although you bear the inheritance of the great master, there is no limit to your learning and you must not achieve anything. Slacken. As long as you keep working hard, one day, your achievements will shock the entire demon world."

Chen Rui was shocked: "Master, what happened? Where are you going?"

"I'm likely to leave Darkmoon City." Ardas shook his head with a gloomy look, and explained the reason.

The demon world respects the strong, not only power, but also fierce competition in various fields. The rules of the pharmacy world are unique. If you want to become a master of pharmacy, there are two ways. The first is to go to the pharmacist alliance in the imperial capital, and pass a series of complex assessments, including and accurately dispensing the highest-level white pharmacy within the specified time, and it must be recognized by at least two masters.

The second is to directly challenge the masters who have become famous under the witness of the Pharmacist Alliance. If they are successfully promoted to the master level, the failed masters will be deprived of the status of masters, and will be exiled for three years. After three years, they can challenge or test again. Master class. If the challenged refuses to accept the challenge, it is directly regarded as a failure.

However, the challenger is not without risk, and needs to bet a huge amount of wealth. Once the challenge fails, the wealth will belong to the master, and he will not be allowed to challenge again within three years.

Chen Rui understood, just like gambling, Ardas went on to explain that money is very important to pharmacists, because alchemy is a costly discipline, whether it is pharmacy or pharmacy, it requires a lot of money. financial support. Even if it is to assess the level of an alchemist or learn from an alchemist, it will cost a lot of money. Therefore, ordinary alchemists will seek the support of financially powerful forces and work for them.

Chen Rui thought to himself, compared to that, it was too easy for him to be a free apprentice.

Ardas himself was heavily in debt due to financial problems and was treated with indifference. After failing at the master level in a desperate test, he almost lost his confidence in life after going bankrupt. At this most desolate time, Ardas met the eldest princess Shia. At that time, Shia was only sixteen years old. She had just taken over Darkmoon City, but she knew people and provided Ardas with valuable funds. After Ardas became a master, he reciprocated, resolutely refused the invitation of the imperial capital, and stayed in Darkmoon City to serve Shia.

Chen Rui showed a clear expression, no wonder it was dark

The Elf Master has a sincere respect for Princess Shia.

Ardas sighed: "A few months ago, I received letters from Master Zola and Master Camp in the imperial capital one after another. The letters promised great benefits and persuaded me to join the regent Obsidian, but I categorically refused. Today the pharmacist The alliance imperial capital branch suddenly sent a magic message, and the pharmacist Sandro in the imperial capital officially challenged me, and now the two pharmacists and Sandro are already on their way to Darkmoon City, and they will arrive in two days."

If you don't eat toast, the penalty drink really comes.

Ardas is Shia's right-hand man. If he is defeated and exiled, the reputation of the Darkmoon Territory and the strength of Shia will be greatly damaged. Obviously, this is a means for the Obsidian Prince to weaken Princess Shia's power. The imperial capital is far away from Darkmoon City. Even if you take the fastest flying beast taming, it will take nearly a month. However, the magic communication has only arrived at Ardas now. It seems that the other party deliberately wants to kill someone by surprise.

"Master, no matter what the other party's plan is, in the end it needs strength to explain everything," Chen Rui thought for a while, and said, "As long as you defeat that Sandro, the other party's conspiracy will fail, and you will lose a lot of money. ."

"I naturally understand this. The problem is that I'm not Sandro's opponent." Ardas said with a wry smile: "Sandro is the most outstanding pharmacy genius in the empire. When I was testing pharmacists, he already had the empire. The title of the genius pharmacist on the first day. And this person has master-level strength early in the morning, and even many masters respect him. It is said that he once swore an oath that if he did not develop the strongest poison, he would never participate in the master. Now he came to challenge me. On the one hand, he was ordered by the regent. On the other hand, he probably made a major breakthrough in the development of new poisons. He planned to use me as a victim to advance to the master. Just now I was in the council room with the chief The princess has been discussing for a long time, but she has not come up with any countermeasures."

Chen Rui tried to ask: "Master, if you contact Sandro immediately and say that you are willing to serve Prince Obsidian, can you avoid this challenge?"

Ardas shook his head resolutely and said, "Since I rejected the solicitation of Prince Obsidian, I will not accept it now. Although our dark elves don't talk about hypocrisy such as integrity and tolerance, but we are most grateful, and I will never accept it. I will turn my back on His Highness Shia, and even if I am exiled for three years, I will do my best to become a master again and continue to serve His Highness.”

However, since Prince Obsidian has the heart to deal with Shia, it is hard to say whether Ardas can keep his life during the exile. Even if the dark elves can survive and regain the glory of the master, in three years, will the already precarious Darkmoon City still be under Shia's grasp?

This point, even Chen Rui thought of it, and Ardas definitely knew it.

Ardas didn't say any more, and continued to clean up the potions and books, ready to leave at any time.

Chen Rui did not help Ardas clean up, and frowned aside. Ardas is very rigorous in academics. Although he is a bit cunning like a dark elf, he has no reservations when instructing him on pharmacy, and there is no so-called racial discrimination. At the same time, this master is also Chen Rui's best protective umbrella for the outside world. Whether it is for others or for himself, he must try to pull him.

Also, the start-up progress of the super system is now stagnant, and that Sandro's new poison may not be an opportunity...

While pondering, a bold plan gradually took shape in Chen Rui's mind.

"Master, wait! Don't be too pessimistic, we may not lose, if my plan is successful..." Chen Rui thought about it, and smiled: "Perhaps, we can discuss the huge wealth easily first. distribution problem."

This sentence made Ardas move, and his originally gloomy eyes suddenly widened.

At this time, in the Darkmoon Territory, under the circumstance that the interested person released the wind, two days later, the news that Sandro, the pharmacy genius of the Imperial Capital, officially challenged Master Ardas spread like wildfire, and the entire Darkmoon was discussing this important event.

Two days passed quickly, just like the time of the magic communication, a group of people from the imperial capital appeared outside Darkmoon City on time.
