In order to ensure daily expenses, after nightfall, the lighting methods in Lu Yu's house were torches and oil lamps. These lighting methods could not make the courtyard as bright as that of the nobles.
Lu Yu used the light attribute magic he had just learned to condense a ball of light in the palm of his hand, illuminating the courtyard that was almost invisible after dark.
Lulutis was busy carving a strange magic circle with her tentacles.
Lu Yu, who had already learned a lot of magic knowledge from Lulutis, vaguely felt that this was not a formation that contained destructive power based on the flow of magic power guided from the magic core.
However, given that Lulutis had a history of blowing herself up, Lu Yu still put a layer of fire-attribute shield on himself when lighting.
Lulutis saw this in her eyes, and her response could only be to gently pat Lu Yu's belly with her tentacles.
"You want to wear a layer too?"
With that said, Lu Yu very considerately attached a shield to Lulutis.
Lu Yu's misunderstanding caused Lulutis' tentacles that carved the magic circle to pause.
Looking at the looming fire shield around her body, she wanted to use Lu Yu as a human pen knife to complete the rest of the magic circle.
The magic circle was finally carved, and looking at the magic cores scattered on the ground, Sigrid felt a little distressed.
Now they still don't have a good way to make money. If they spend all Andrew's compensation and Old Drake's donation, they won't be able to eat delicious food every day...
When Sigrid thought about Lu Yu not being able to cook in different ways every day, she was even more worried than they needed to move out of this house.
"There are no blockages and the magic flows smoothly."
"The nodes are connected perfectly and there are no flaws."
Lulutis confirmed the magic flow of the magic circle, stretched out her tentacles towards Lu Yu, and invited him to step into the magic circle with her.
Lu Yu looked at the weird magic circle on the ground and asked awkwardly: "Why don't you explain the purpose of this thing first?"
"Send message."
During this time, Sigrid has been doing two things besides improving her strength.
One thing is to find the brother of the owner of the suicide note they picked up in the snowy forest.
The owner of the suicide note, Naka, claimed that his brother lived in the royal city, but in fact the royal city was very large.
The suburbs of the Royal City where Lu Yu currently lives can be considered within the scope of the Royal City.
Even though she knew the name of Naka's brother, Sigrid still didn't get any useful information. Instead, she attracted several fake relics.
Fortunately, Sigrid is now a Shiraki-level adventurer. For a little money, she can post a commission in the Adventurer's Guild and have people help her find it.
The second thing is to help Lulutis find information about the continent of Mera and the Solon Empire.
After asking for a long time, she still found nothing, which made Lulutis confused about where she was. She desperately wanted to locate her current location, otherwise the future journey would only be aimless.
At this time, it also became apparent that Lu Yu had the advantage of pretending to be a nobleman and reporting a higher title.
Nobles with a certain status can enter the library of the Kingdom of Yas to borrow books.
According to the information revealed by Andrew in previous chats, the maps in the Kingdom Library and the maps of the Adventurer's Guild are far richer and more detailed than those in private circulation.
The former requires a title and merit to be borrowed, while the latter requires a certain adventurer level to be eligible to be borrowed.
Lu Yu gradually obtained information, while Lulutis planned to try to establish contact with the distant continent of Mela through her own way.
"If you want to connect with someone there, you have to have someone, or some kind of medium, to resonate and respond."
Lu Yu's magic foundation was very good, and he quickly figured out the loopholes in Lulutis' behavior based on the basic magic theory.
"Of course there are things that resonate."
"It's not at your home, right?" Lu Yu said with a black line on his face, "If it wasn't hard enough, I think it would have turned into fly ash in the explosion."
Lulutis sighed.
"I thought it was hopeless at home, but there was another person who had the statue that was used as an emergency communication medium."
Lu Yu seemed to be thinking of someone.
"That rabbit?"
Lulutis admitted reluctantly.
"Although I don't like her very much, she always comes to my place to visit. And I also said that she doesn't care about the status of the saint and the chosen one, and she is not very reserved in front of me..."
"She insisted that the little fox I carved was very beautiful. I told her that any craftsman on the streets of the empire could do it better than me, and that my statue was used to activate the golem at home... But she just stole it.
One statue."
"Steal?" Lu Yu broke into a cold sweat.
"Yes, she moved away while I was not at home. She disturbed my puppets and went to the woods to catch a lot of live little foxes for me..."
"After that, she modified my little fox statue and sent messages to annoy me whenever there was something wrong..."
Why does Lu Yu think...Rabbit really likes the look of Lulutis?
But she likes to hide this "like" under very puzzling behavior.
Moreover, Lulutis said she was disgusted, but didn’t you completely close the other party’s information channels?
How can a seventh-level magician block the other party's private messages?
Lulutis said that she used to be a person who didn't like to communicate with others.
However, after the magic mistake turned her into what she is now, she completely lost the channel to communicate with others.
She had not been able to successfully communicate with anyone for a whole month. Her loneliness and fear made her particularly excited when she saw Lu Yu.
"In the past, it would have been difficult for me to say a word to you all day long."
Lu Yu didn't believe it.
You talk to yourself every day now, and sometimes you are even more talkative than yourself, picking up jokes and complimenting you so well.
Do you believe it if you say that you used to be a man of few words and a man of few words?
Sigrid painfully took out eight magic cores from the house, and asked Lulutis to curl up one of the eight tentacles stretched out.
Lu Yu consoled him: "Don't worry, Lulutis said it is just a backup and may not be used."
After Sigrid retreated, as the magic power of Lu Yu and Lulutis was injected into the magic circle, the lines of the magic circle lit up little by little.
Bright white light emerged from the ground, gathered into a hazy ribbon, and extended toward the sky.
Lulutis felt the breath of the magic circle seriously, eager to get some response.
However, a full quarter of an hour later, when the magic power of the magic circle was about to dry up, she still failed to find the direction home and the rabbit she hated the most.
"Lu Yu...please leave a message."
"say what?"
Lulutis remained silent.
Seeing that all the magic power of the magic circle was about to disappear, Lu Yu hurriedly asked: "What are you talking about?"
The sound of Lulutis clenching her molar teeth reached Lu Yu's mind.
"Damn rabbit, something serious is wrong with me. Come and save me!"
Lu Yu hesitated for a while, and then modified the words before the magic circle stopped.
"Rabbit, Lulutis please save her."
When asking for help, you must have an attitude of asking for help.
After attaching the known geographical information, the magic ribbon disappeared into the sky.
Lulutis shouted in surprise: "When did I beg her? Why did you change my words!"
"If you think about it carefully, if you beg her, will she feel very happy? When she is happy, she will definitely try her best to find you in order to see you in despair, right?"
How could Lulutis not understand Lu Yu's logic, but she just didn't want Rabbit to know that she was so unlucky now.
Lulutis was silent for a long time, but she was no longer confused.
This kind of information transmission with a huge span is a matter of luck. Failure to receive the information is a high probability.
It was just a gamble, and she might not be able to hear it, so just beg.
…
On the distant continent of Mela, in a dense forest on the western border of the Solon Empire, hundreds of knights wearing helmets and carrying armor were forming an array.
The large shield advanced forward, and the six magicians commanded from behind were put on a fire-attribute shield that could block high temperatures.
The crossbowmen at the rear are taking out the enchanted arrows and getting ready to shoot.
A carriage that was so luxuriously decorated that it was incompatible with the surrounding environment parked quietly behind the group of knights.
Feeling the sight from behind, each of these knights felt a sense of heroism, eager to rush forward immediately and kill the white dragon crawling on the ruins in the distance on the spot.
Speaking of dragons, most ordinary people probably think of them as huge and powerful.
However, the dragon in front of me has nothing to do with these two stereotypes.
He was drooling, and his huge mouth seemed unable to close properly. His tongue kept slipping out of his mouth, waving it around in an extremely disgusting manner.
His face was droopy, as if he had stayed up late every day and had never had a good night's sleep. He was decadent, dispirited, frightening, and no timid majesty could be seen from him at all.
The claws are not sharp, and even the palms have signs of decay.
Bailong seemed to be unable to control his eyes. He stared at the knight in front of him who was constantly approaching him, his left and right eyeballs trembling unharmoniously in his eye sockets.
Seeing that the knight was only about a hundred meters away, Bailong stood up.
The wings that were stretched out hard were a gray that was incompatible with the whiteness of the body, like a black awning that had been soaked and faded by rain.
Following this movement, the knights were surprised to find that the white dragon's scales were falling off.
It's not a positive film, it's more like it was corroded and didn't have enough hardness, so it shattered.
"The princess asked, have you found out clearly what type of dragon this dragon is?"
"Why is he so small, only three stories tall, and looking sickly?"
The six magicians sitting in front looked at each other, and faced the waiter who came, they answered helplessly.
"It is impossible to identify the species of such a morbid dragon."
"Some giant dragons will directly abandon their weak offspring and leave them to fend for themselves. Looking at the size of the dragon in front of you, I guess it is not very old..."
A magician with a white beard and a pointed hat came forward, bowed respectfully in the direction of the carriage, and then said to the waiter.
"Adventurers have described that this dragon appeared here about half a month ago, and it has not left since it arrived. It has always been entrenched in the ruins. I am afraid that it regards this place as its lair."
"During this process, no one found other giant dragons in the surrounding mountains and forests. We also searched it before your Majesty came, and we are sure that this giant dragon has been the only one here recently."
After the waiter reported the information, an order was passed to the six magicians.
"Slay the dragon."
With the unquestionable majesty of the princess, the order was passed to the ears of every knight.
The magician holding his staff high activated the enhanced magic to the extreme. The knights defending the empire's borders pressed forward against the white dragon in a marching formation.
The crossbowmen at the rear also released the first round of arrow rain.
