[Please collect and recommend! ¡¿?¡ ¡°Do you need to ask?¡± Chen Rui asked with a faint smile on his face, and then he continued: ¡°You want to say it, you don¡¯t need me to ask, you will tell me, you don¡¯t want to say, I asked, You can't say it either!" "" Meludi stared at Chen Rui silently in surprise. She didn't expect that Chen Rui would actually say such a sentence. This guy is really different from others! Meludi chuckled and shook her head, and then took the initiative to speak: "Actually, the reason why I don't want to go back is very simple. I don't want to go back to that cold Duke's Palace. In the Duke's Palace, I am Miss Meludi. I have no friends, only servants. Every day I am either learning all kinds of complicated aristocratic etiquette, sleeping, or attending banquets and dances with my mother. I am very tired of this kind of life! " "No friends? You can't be friends with other noble ladies?" Chen Rui looked at Meludi and asked inexplicably. "My father is a Duke. He is the most powerful person in the principality. Therefore, as long as he is a person in the principality, his family power is not as powerful as mine." Meludi sighed and replied: "Even if they come to talk to me We are only friends because my father is so powerful. Among nobles, there is only interest and no friendship! " "This -" Chen Rui didn't know how to answer the question, and finally he patted him gently. He touched Meludi's shoulder twice and suggested: "It's easy if you don't want to go back to the royal capital in the future. After you become the Duke, just make this place the royal capital?" "Huh?" Meludi smelled it. Yan was shocked, and then she looked at Chen Rui with disbelief, and then she said: "Why do you think I will definitely become a duke? Maybe, I may only be able to become a duke in my whole life. You¡¯re going to be a country lord here!¡± ¡°It¡¯s absolutely impossible for you to become a duke on your own,¡± Chen Rui said seriously, ¡°But it¡¯s different with my help!¡± After hearing this, Mei The corners of Lutie's mouth twitched twice in an instant. Has this guy started to change from self-confidence to narcissism? But Meludi also admitted in her heart that Chen Rui was indeed very capable, but no matter how powerful he was, his power was really limited. To be honest, Meludi really didn't have much hope that she could become a duke. After all, Andrea always has an overwhelming advantage. Then Meludi looked at Chen Rui and said, "I'd better go back and think about how to effectively use the fifty thousand gold coins for village development!" "Aren't you going to discuss it with me?" "I can't always rely too much on you. , otherwise, if you disappear in the future, wouldn't I be left alone?" Meludi joked a little, and then she said: "Of course, if I really can't think of anything, I will come to you to discuss it. "Yes!" Then - Meludi turned around and left. After Meludi left, Chen Rui went to the adventurer distribution center in the south of the village. When he arrived, there were several adventurers who seemed to be arguing with Kresia. "What's going on?" When Chen Rui saw this, he couldn't help but asked strangely. "Chen, Master Chen Rui!" As soon as Faris saw Chen Rui, she immediately spoke and took the initiative to say hello. Kresia and the adventurers also stopped arguing when they heard Faris's voice, and then They turned their heads together and looked at Chen Rui. "It's like this." Kresia explained: "These people, they said themselves, they found a few orbs on the edge of the center of the King's ruins, but I think the origin of the orbs is a bit suspicious, and I'm afraid it will happen in the future Because of what trouble these orbs will cause, I don¡¯t want to buy these orbs.¡± ¡°Dear Master Magician, these orbs are really what we found from the king¡¯s ruins!¡± An adventurer said with a bitter look on his face: "We lost two brothers for these orbs. This -" "Bring the orbs over and show me." Chen Rui sat down, and the adventurers After hearing this, he immediately carefully took out a few orbs that exuded dazzling light from his backpack. Each orb emits a different light and is very beautiful. "Is this?" Chen Rui frowned slightly. He seemed to feel a familiar alchemical fluctuation, so he casually picked up a luminous orb and observed it carefully. As for the adventurers, they all looked at Chen Rui nervously. Whether these orbs could be turned into gold coins or not, they all just waited for Chen Rui's decision!  "Is this -" Chen Rui muttered four words softly, but did not continue, but he was really shocked in his heart. This thing may be the alchemy energy core, which is used to drive the alchemy puppet. But the refining method of the alchemical energy core has long been lost due to various reasons, so Chen Rui is not sure now whether this is the alchemical energy core. He has to go back and test it through professional methods. And it is said that the operating principle of the magic circle is also embedded in the alchemy energy core! Furthermore, due to the disappearance of the alchemical energy core, a category in alchemy, the art of alchemical puppets, has been completely abolished. Even to this day, very few people know the art of alchemical puppets! Chen Rui also learned about the alchemy puppet technique by reading Edward's experience and notes. It turned out that this was a method used by alchemists to fight. Fortunately, Edward also recorded how to refine it in his experience and notes. Make an alchemy puppet! If the alchemy energy core reappears, then Chen Rui believes that the alchemy puppet technique will definitely shine again! As long as the alchemist refines the puppet, he can use the puppet to replace himself and fight others without having to go into battle himself. This has completely minimized the danger! After all, to defeat the alchemist, you must first defeat the alchemy puppet! And it is said that the powerful alchemy puppet is not only beautiful in appearance, but also very powerful, and has extremely high magic resistance! No matter it¡¯s martial arts or magic, you can¡¯t easily defeat the alchemy puppet! As for whether this is true or not, Chen Rui doesn¡¯t know. After all, the alchemy puppet technique once appeared, but it disappeared immediately! It¡¯s simply a flash in the pan! However, according to the description in Edward's notes, the alchemy puppet was not made through alchemy, but made by himself. However, making an alchemy puppet requires a very high level of alchemy, and the alchemy energy core is not easy to refine. After all, the alchemical energy core is also mixed with the operating principle of the magic circle, which means that if you want to drive an alchemy puppet, you must be proficient in both alchemy and magic circle! Thinking of this, Chen Rui couldn't help but secretly guess that maybe this was the real reason why the alchemy puppet technique disappeared so quickly! Because skills that are not easily learned by the public are destined to be eliminated! After all, there are too few people who are proficient in magic circles and alchemy at the same time! "I've accepted these things, but first let's talk about it, how much do you plan to charge for it?" Chen Rui asked with a slight smile after putting down the luminous orb in his hand. "Sir, just give it to me!" An adventurer laughed dryly: "After all, we have a long-term cooperative relationship. As long as the price is not too low, we can sell it to you!" In fact, before coming back, these few An adventurer had already gone to Boulder Town and had it appraised by an appraiser. These orbs, apart from being able to shine, are of no use at all! "That one orb, thirty gold coins?" Chen Ruizhen asked: "There are five here, a total of one hundred and fifty gold coins, okay?" "Okay!" The faces of these adventurers were revealed. With an excited expression, it turns out that being an adventurer is much more promising than being a robber. He went out on an adventure and earned more than a hundred gold coins! "Then, Kresia, please go and get one hundred and fifty gold coins and give them to these people." After Chen Rui finished speaking, he said: "As for these orbs, I will take them away first." Chen Rui planned to take them away immediately. Go back and use professional techniques to identify whether these orbs are the core of alchemical energy. Afterwards, Chen Rui returned to the house with the orb, but as soon as he opened the door, he was completely dumbfounded!
