Chapter 242
After the gathering, Kia continued to look obedient and didn’t talk much; while one of the scandal’s protagonists, little loli, had no memory of what happened at the end after waking up . As for the others, Chen Rui couldn’t bother already .

As three days after the gathering, he suddenly passed out when he was inspecting the barracks .
Athena was taken aback and immediately brought him back to the lab . This incident alarmed Aldas, who was experimenting with the black potions in “retreat . ” Chen Rui’s current condition seemed to be terrible . His life activity was reduced to the minimal with only heartbeat and weak breathing as if he was dying . The dark elf potion master tried various drugs, even the high purity Awakening Potion that he recently brewed, but none of them worked .
Paglio rushed there in time . After carefully observing Chen Rui for a while, he finally came to a conclusion: It must be Glorfin’s soul that he devoured had reached the final stage . It was a very difficult test and it depended on Chen Rui himself, neither external forces nor drugs would work .
If he could overcome this stage, he would be reborn; if he couldn’t, his consciousness would be completely wiped out and he would become a monster that acts on only by instinct .
Athena didn’t know about this test of Chen Rui, and her heart suddenly sank . Now, as Paglio said, success or failure depended entirely on Chen Rui himself .
Shea, who heard the news, came to the laboratory immediately . She saw Chen Rui, who was unconscious, and Athena and Alice beside who had their eyes red .
“How did this happen? Is he poisoned or assassinated?”
Athena wiped her tears and shook her head, “Master Aldas has tried many methods, but he still can’t wake him up . Besides, his current looks seemed like the dangerous symptoms of grand master’s inheritance that he once told me . Now, it all depends on his luck . ”
Shea was shocked . She recalled the seemingly joking sentence previously, “It depends on my luck . If I’m unlucky, Princess Royal can save the salary for the sheriff . ”
However, after saying that, this man briefed a lot of things including the Dark Moon’s future direction, which gave her an ominous feeling, as if… he was handing over before his death .
“Athena, can you take Alice out first?”

Shea’s request was a bit abnormal, but Athena and Alice were both in a sad mood now, so they didn’t think much and walked out accordingly .
In the room, only Shea and Chen Rui were left . To be precise, it was a dead man with a beautiful woman standing aside .
In the past, Chen Rui had mentioned more than once the danger of the grand master’s inheritance . As he always came back safely, Shea was somewhat accustomed to it . She definitely had a lack of awareness of the so-called danger . Now, witnessing Chen Rui on the verge of death, coupled with the ominous feeling in her heart, her heart became unusually heavy .
From the moment that this human came to her sight, all the previous scenes were played in front of Shea’s eyes . Many credits, such as those at Mountain Xilang, were a combination of his description and her imagination . Some scenes stayed for a longer time, for example, that one stunning waltz…
Before she knew it, she already had a sense of dependence on this man . Not only in the aspect of political strategy but also in something she couldn’t describe . Not knowing when it started, this guy’s annoying smile had engraved in her mind, and it couldn’t be erased, especially those words and behaviors that were beyond boundaries . Back then, it was more anger or embarrassment but now, when she was faced with eternal loss, she realized those were actually precious .
Her heart was empty, and she felt uncomfortable .
If he really couldn’t overcome this, then I’d really never be able to see that annoying smile again? The smile that he jokes as he hands over before his “death”?
A drop of tear quietly slipped from that cold face . No matter how cold an ice was, it was still made of water .
“Tick“, the sound of tears falling to the ground in the silent room seemed to be amplified . It was particularly obvious .
Shea touched her face gently with her hand . Looking at the crystal tear in her hand, she was slightly surprised . Other than the hidden room, I actually…
“I order you in the name of Shea Lucifer that you must survive . ”

After staring for a long time, there was only such a cold sentence .
There are many things that we can do if you survive . These things at least include a dance, those three words, and… many many other things .
In the purple beautiful eyes, the remaining crystals had been frozen into ice by a power . She took a deep look at the man who was still asleep . Then, Shea didn’t stay anymore and turned away .
The news that the sheriff, Chen Rui suddenly passed out for unknown reasons spread and raised a commotion in the city . Shea subsequently ordered Athena to temporarily assume the role of sheriff, which confirmed the news completely . Initially, many people were envious and dissatisfied of this human who was lucky enough to obtain the position of sheriff . Then, the news that the daughter of the empire’s first general fell in love with the human made countless people speechless . What kind of person Ms . Athena was? She was the daughter of the empire’s first general and the Dark Moon’s top swordswoman (the word ‘wo’ could already be removed) . Even the former, Alan, also the heir of the Karon Family, couldn’t get close to her . How did this powerless human with no family background make such beauty fall in love with him? Unfortunately, Alan was killed and disqualified by Sergey . The son of the empire’s second general, Sergey, who was also interested in Athena, was also “escorted” back to the capital for being suspected of committing a crime of passion . Now, the human who was related to Athena also faced trouble and was dying . Based on these incidents, a certain unhealthy book’s author could slightly polish it, and it would become a beautiful, sad story . At least before the story ended, the affair between the two sheriffs and the first general’s daughter had become the topic during leisure time .
Unlike these gossips, another group of people lurking in the Dark Moon to observe the movement immediately passed the information in various ways after confirming the news .
The Red Spirit Estate was undoubtedly one of the fastest places to receive the message and the man who received the information smiled habitually . This is even better, save me from doing it myself, but the plan with the temporary ally might need to change .
The capital also quickly received this information . After learning about the bad condition of the Dark Moon’s human sheriff, the beautiful, mature noblewoman smiled even more flattering . The “seed” planted that day finally germinated, but a talent who isn’t tactful has been wasted .
Chen Rui knew nothing about these news and trends outside . It was only when the inner demons didn’t show up, he could occasionally hear some movements around him, including Shea’s “order” .
His condition was strange at that moment . It seemed that the Super System in his consciousness had disappeared . The solar system, Galaxy Divinity Temple and everything else had disappeared .
There was nothing .

Within the void, illusions appeared . At present, Chen Rui had considerable experience and will to fight against the inner demon . However, unlike the previous inner demon, this seemed to be an endless illusion . After defeating the inner demon, he only returned to the initial void at most . After a while, the illusion began again . It was like a cyclic, never-ending nightmare . Even with the strongest willpower, Chen Rui started to get confused in these endless illusions .
It was a huge treasure . The rolling mountains around him were all treasures . They were hundreds of times larger than Paglio’s treasure . Underneath Chen Rui’s feet were countless bodies . At his opposite, there were Roman, Delia, Paglio and others .
Chen Rui’s strength was already quite strong, even Paglio, who had territory was incomparable .
“You dare to sneak attack me? These treasures are mine!” He made a vicious voice . Although he felt that he shouldn’t do that, those words came out of his mouth involuntarily . Besides, the sword in his hand was still moving . Under the light reflected on the sword, Paglio and others were killed one by one .
As Chen Rui looked at the bloody corpses of his friends, his body trembled . “Klang!“, the sword came off his hands and he fell to his knees . Both his hands were holding onto the ground while he panted heavily: Did I do this? I killed Paglio, Roman…
In this world, the symbiotic contract seemed to have lost its function, but that was obviously not the main point .
Chen Rui suddenly responded and shouted, “Shura! Get out . I know you’re here!”
A creepy laughter came from the front and the thin mist condensed into a human form, which was exactly what Chen Rui looked like, except that the eyes were glowing in eerie red .
“How does it feel to kill your companions yourself?” Shura smiled grimly, “As long as you kill me, these treasures are yours . ”
“Don’t deceive me with these illusions!” Chen Rui gasped and yelled, “As long as I kill you, these will disappear!”
“Even if you kill me, can the fact that you kill your companion change?” Shura’s laughter became a little contemptuous .
“You kill me is just to escape from reality because you dare not face everything you did in these illusions . That’s the real you!” Shura sneered, “You are in fear! You want to cover up your greedy instinct!
“Shut up!” Chen Rui shouted furiously and a giant scorching dragon came out of his hand as it roared . It broke Shura’s protective cover and swallowed him .
Shura, who fell to the ground, was dying, but he was still laughing .
“Killing me can’t change the fact that you’re escaping from . In fact, I am you; you are me! You are… Shura!”
Shura’s voice drifted away as he was annihilated . After the victory, Chen Rui wasn’t happy at all . He was sweating and panting even more violently . At that time, a mirror flew out of the mist of Shura that was eliminated, and it happened to fall right in front of Chen Rui .
Chen Rui looked down . The eyes of the man in the mirror were blood red, and they were filled with evil and violence . This is me?
“You are killing me just to escape! That is actually the real you!”
“You are me; I am you!”
“You are Shura!”
Chen Rui covered his head in pain and cried painfully . Subsequently, there were weird scenes coming one after another that contained endless desires, evil thoughts, and slaughters .
Shura, who was annihilated again and again, laughed ecstatically .
“That’s right! Be hateful! Be jealous! Be furious!”
