Devil’s Son-in-Law

e first thing he saw would be his mother.

However, when facing the simplest question, Chen Rui seemed to be a little hesitant.
10 seconds was running out.
Just as Roman couldn’t stand it and wanted to rush in to answer, Chen Rui answered, “Eggshell.”

It seemed to be a simple 50/50 question, but in reality, it was very sinisterly misleading because both answers were incorrect.
Chen Rui remembered Paglio mentioned during one of their chats.

“When I was born, I saw nothing but eggshell.”

“In the past few years, I had no closed ones, but a lot of enemies.”

“Dragons don’t need friends, especially poison dragons.
Have you seen God having friends? They only need admiration and fear.
They have no need for unnecessary care and understanding.”

If the questions prior were just boring and narcissistic, then the last question had a touch of loneliness.

However, that guy should be much better now.
When I return this time, I’ll give him a gift of freedom by unlocking the restraint of the .
He can finally get out of the blue lake’s area.
Then, he won’t be nagging always that “even my ass has calluses now”.

The stone dragon’s voice sounded, interrupting Chen Rui’s thoughts.

“Eggshell.
Correct.”

After saying that, Roman was afraid after a while.
Fortunately, he didn’t go up to “answer”.
Otherwise, it would all be over.

The stone pillars began to change.
The original dragon shape combination turned into an entrance to a cave.
There were stone stairs spiraling downwards, and there were magic stones along the way to illuminate.
It seemed that the real location of the treasure was the “third floor” under this hall.

“Let’s go.” Chen Rui said to Roman and Delia, “The real body of the lich hasn’t appeared yet.
He is likely to be nearby, but he might also be downstairs.
We must be careful.”

Roman nodded.
He carried Dodo’s backpack, and the trio walked down the stairs together.

The stairs were very long.
It took half an hour to reach the bottom, but there was no inscription or trap along the way.
In front of them was a huge door.
When Roman pushed the heavy door open, the light from the gap of the door almost blinded the three of them.

It was a bigger hall with a taller mountain of money! Compared with the sight in front of them, the illusive mountain of money in the hall above could only be considered as a tiny hill.

Chen Rui tried the storage, and it was withdrawable! This is the real treasure pile!

The environment here was a little different from above.
The innermost was a pool, and a number of huge boxes were placed in order.
Then, it was followed by gems, ores and outermost was the undulating black crystal coin mountain.
The sequence was clearly defined.

Chen Rui’s eyes were a little hot and the eyes of Delia and Roman were also shining.
For such a huge amount of money, those who said they didn’t care would be hypocritical.

“I kind of have an urge to get rid of you since you have no strength now anyway.” Roman rubbed his nose desperately.
“Then, I’ll take Delia to spend this money as if they were soil and live as a rich man for hundreds of years.”

“I feel the same.” Delia, who was wearing the veil, had a rare smile in her eyes, “Yet before that, I want to find what I need the most.”

After resolving the misunderstanding with Roman, the gloom in Delia’s eyes seemed to have reduced a lot.
At that moment, she ignored the other two and activated to detect her family’s secret treasure.
Certainly, there was clear feedback information, and she quickly walked forward.

“I’ve made such a bad choice in friends!” Chen Rui looked miserable, but he was actually very relaxed, “I should’ve killed you upstairs.”

One could see who were the true friends in the face of difficulties.
The previous battle had proven many things which were far more reliable than words.

“Hehe, give me a bottle of wine.” Roman smiled, “Later, I’ll be gentler.”

Chen Rui threw a bottle of wine toward him.
Both of them were looking at the dazzling treasure while following Delia’s footsteps forward.
Suddenly, Roman, who had activated , yelled at Delia, “Wait! Delia! Come back quickly!”

Delia retreated without hesitation.
At that moment, a black smoke quickly emerged from the pool and surrounded Delia in the blink of an eye.
Delia reacted quickly and immediately activated .
However, the strength of the black smoke was too powerful, so the strength of was instantly disintegrated.
However, also bought some valuable time.
Roman, who activated with all his strength, had already rushed over, carried Delia and retreated.

The crisis hadn’t resolved as the scope of black smoke was still expanding and covering.
Roman changed his direction multiple times, but he was still blocked.
It seemed that the two was about to follow Akui’s footsteps.

“Guradam! If you want to leave this place, don’t hurt them!”

Chen Rui’s loud scream stopped the movement of the black smoke.
Roman took the advantage and finally managed to carry Delia and escape.
Even though both of them were strong-minded, they were both astonished after that incident now.

After all, no one wanted to be a skeleton.

Chen Rui couldn’t use any skills including now, but he could feel that Guradam’s breath was far stronger than that on the upper layer. This must be his actual body!

The most dangerous boss in this treasure, the master of necromancy 2000 years ago finally shows himself! He is actually in this hall that is full of treasures!

The black smoke gathered into a human form and stood opposite of Chen Rui.
His eyes glowed in a strange red light.
A hateful voice sounded, “If you didn’t open the door to this treasure, you might be able to threaten me.
Now, you’re just seeking death! When you destroyed my projection, I vowed to tear your flesh off your bones.
I never thought to have my wish come true so soon!”

“Did you forget how the projection failed? Do you want your actual body to be annihilated?”

The corpse necromancer said disdainfully, “Although that skill that’s kind of like Nirvana has some effect, it can only damage my projection.
Unless you reach the Demon Emperor level, it is useless against my actual body… Besides, you have no strength left now.”

Chen Rui didn’t flinch.
His expression remained unchanged, “How do you know I have no strength?”

The corpse necromancer sneered, “Even if I didn’t hear what you said, I can see it from your current state.
In the face of absolute strength, tactics such as bluffing are useless.”

If this corpse necromancer was really the Guradam 2000 years ago, then even if Chen Rui could use his skill now, he had no chance of winning.
Chen Rui thought quickly and shrugged his shoulder, “Since in the face of absolute power, tactics are useless.
Then, with your strength, you don’t have to be scared of me.
Why don’t we talk about it?”

“What’s there to talk about!” Guradam yelled furiously, “Talk after I turn you into skeletons one by one!”

“There’re a lot of things we can talk about, such as… about you being imprisoned here… or perhaps a Demon Overlord-level dragon?”

Guradam trembled slightly, and the spreading black mist suddenly slowed down.
