Chapter 395 394. What are you going to do with these insects like you?
Compared with the cannon fodder army like Dandelion, the army composed of summoners is much more nourishing. Not only does it not require intense pre-war preparations, the cannon fodder ceremony of obedience test is also omitted, and even the station is owned by a duke.
Suburban manor.
After being brought in by a high-level magician, the two immediately saw a summoner in the distance engaged in a summons duel. This special competition, which was originally extinct in this era, has become popular again due to the invasion of infiltration.
After watching the summoning ceremony of Lu Yu and Lulu, the secretary immediately admitted them into the legion. Taking this opportunity, Lu Yu tentatively asked.
"I have heard before that the summoning masters in the legion have some new summoning templates?"
The clerk replied while recording the information: "Almost every magician who comes to the legion will ask this question. Take your tokens and go to the mansion to find the master's apprentices. They will tell you how to obtain those templates."
The lights were brightly lit in the Duke's residence, and the sound of people drinking and drinking could be heard endlessly. Dimin broke through the Dandelion Fortress, galloped across the great plains, and was about to approach the royal capital. However, there was still singing and dancing here, and everyone he saw looked intoxicated, as if they were far away.
The disaster is just a farce.
Pushing away a magician who almost bumped into Lulu, Lu Yu could not help but frown as he smelled the alcoholic smell and protected Lulu even tighter.
Since supporting Solon, the Sligo army has implemented the strictest prohibition on alcohol. Only soldiers taking turns to rest can get a limited supply of alcohol. Noel's prohibition is implemented extremely resolutely. A military commander with great martial arts because of
He almost lost his title for being greedy.
This is not just a fight for the land of Sligo. If Yan Ran had already set foot on the land of Sligo, Lu Yu could imagine that the discipline of the Sligo Army would be even stricter.
He could understand that the summoner, as the ace, had some preferential treatment, but what was this scene of drunkenness and death?
What would they think if the various ethnic groups who came to support saw it?
Sure enough, when passing through the atrium garden, Lu Yu saw some foreigners who had never drank or had sex with slave women. They stood in small groups and watched the farce indifferently.
Anyone who tries to persuade you to drink will be rejected.
After seeing Lu Yu also rejecting drinks and beautiful women, a snake man spat out a letter and bowed slightly to Lu Yu in human etiquette to show friendship - chaos allowed them to see clearly who had integrity and self-control.
people.
Through the servants in the mansion, Lu Yu finally found an apprentice of the summoning master in the competition venue of the manor.
The Summoning Apprentice had just finished his competition with another Summoner. He was sweating profusely and wiped his face, then narrowly squinted his eyes to observe Lu Yu.
"Do you need a new summoning template?"
"Yes, before I came here I heard that Glutton's second summoning template has been provided to the front line."
Hearing this, the Summoning Apprentice said "Oh" and then asked: "Don't you want to try other new summoning templates that are better and more reliable?"
"still got more?"
"Of course. The summoned apprentice laughed and said, "The masters each made a new template based on the new template of Gluttony to a certain extent and obtained it after a certain degree of improvement. The effect of each template is only stronger than that of Gluttony."
Lulu couldn't help it anymore, and said with a strange tone: "Several masters have such profound knowledge in summoning. Why did there be no resistance on the front line when the contamination struck? It wasn't until the gluttons shared the template that the balance of power came."
The summoning apprentice waved his hands repeatedly: "Actually, the masters were already innovating the template before that. It's just that the glutton made the template public first, so that his template is now being used on the front lines. This doesn't mean anything."
Perhaps because he was irritable, or perhaps because he was urged by other apprentices behind him, the speaker was a little impatient. He said displeasedly: "Just tell me whether you want it or not. We still need to conduct summoning training to fight against the contamination."
"Yes, of course." Lu Yu stretched out his hand to him. After waiting for a while, the scroll did not come, but he found that the other party looked at him...as if he was looking at a fool.
When leaving Sligo, Noel stuffed a bag of gold coins into Lu Yu, saying that Solon might be able to use it. Sure enough, he was right. It seemed that he had a very active eye on Rodmere.
After putting down the ten gold coins, the apprentice still didn't hold his hand tightly, and lightly bumped his palm. Without saying a word, he looked at Lu Yu calmly.
Lu Yu added ten more coins, and then the other party reached back with satisfaction and took out a scroll.
This was the first time Lu Yu purchased items in units of gold coins since he came to this world, which made him a little sad.
He did not rush to browse, but asked again: "Do you have masterpieces by other masters?"
The other apprentices extended their hands.
Lu Yu didn't hesitate. After leaving the gold coins for Lulu to buy snacks, he threw the money bag away - he felt dirty counting money for these people.
There were eight in total. It seemed that there were more masters than he thought.
Carrying the scroll to a secluded place, Lu Yu couldn't wait to open one, touched it with magic power, and felt the circuit of the summoning template, while Lulu stood aside and watched the surroundings vigilantly.
Lu Yu, who frowned, put down the first scroll, triggered the second, and then the third...
Lulu looked around and raised her own doubts: "How can they make everyone point at your template and 'innovate' it? I don't think they have the strength."
"They really didn't." Lu Yu threw the eight copies of the scroll aside as if looking at a pile of rubbish.
"Then how could they launch eight different summoning templates? You know, they promoted the templates. Once an accident occurs during use, they are to blame." Lulu was puzzled, picked up the scroll and read it carefully
She started to look at it, and then...she froze.
As one of the first members to learn new summoning templates, Lulu was deeply impressed by the templates. The templates in front of her were only slightly different from Lu Yu's No. 2 template in some magic circuits.
"Shameless!" Lulu was furious. She clutched the scroll and walked out, but was hugged by Lu Yu.
"Calm down first."
"Aren't you angry? They are stealing the honor that should be yours!" Lulu became more and more excited because Lu Yu didn't deserve it. "Everyone made some changes to your template, and they all probably confirmed it.
A small number of changes will not affect the effect too much, and you may think that even if it has an effect, you will die on the battlefield due to side effects, and you are not afraid of someone exposing it!"
"The School of Summoning has long been discontinued. Except for them, a group of scholars who compile books and history, everyone has a serious lack of understanding of Summoning. They make up random things, saying that their small changes can have several times the effect, and they can win the hearts of everyone.
Praise!"
"Compared to you squatting in the corner of Mera, with the reputation of eating people and eating sea monsters, the people here are definitely more accepting of the knowledge studied by a group of sanctimonious scholars, which is more excellent and effective!"
"These abominable group of knowledge thieves and school thieves!"
Lulu took this opportunity to vent all her anger towards the school, waving her hands vigorously as if to swell the faces of those ugly guys.
"Why aren't you angry? Why!" Lulu's eyes were red. Her experience in Solon had made her predict all the future scripts. She felt aggrieved for Lu Yu.
Lu Yu pressed Lulu on the chair and went to the banquet hall to order a drink and hand it to her.
Lulu was reluctant to take it at first, but after seeing Lu Yu take a sip, she extended her hand again. This coy little gesture made him smile.
After finishing the drink angrily, Lulu's mood calmed down a little.
"A person who is disappointed will not be angry, he will only feel... boring, because everything is the same as Sayer said."
Lulu was stunned for a moment, recalling the words that Sayer and Vanessa threw out when they were arguing.
"No matter how much knowledge is shared, it will eventually enter the tower and be shelved in a high cabinet, becoming a secret that is difficult for ordinary people to reach."
Time passed slowly, and hundreds of years passed in a blink of an eye. Vanessa, Sayer, and most of the ancient names mentioned in the conversation had returned to the earth. What remained unchanged was everything he had foreseen.
History has proven his pessimism correct time and time again.
Uncomfortably correct.
Vanessa's stubbornness is like a colorful butterfly flying lightly over a pool of stagnant water, with its wings spread lightly, dancing gracefully. She makes ripples in the dead pool, which looks clear but is actually pitch black.
A series of shocking shadows were left on the pond.
Lu Yu sighed, looked up at the sky, his eyes penetrated the void, and the hut appeared in his mind.
"Vanessa...have you really never wavered..."
"How can you do a good job of summoning with these insects!" Lu Yu finally got angry.
Although he never placed his hopes on the insects that these schools of thought had taken into his mind from beginning to end, he still had some simple idealistic feelings at the moment when he provided the template.
What if sharing could bring miracles and break some barriers and barriers?
Maybe after experiencing this moment, different seeds will be left in the hearts of the various races of Mera and take root and sprout?
Although it is unrealistic, Lu Yu still fantasizes about it.
He followed Vanessa's footsteps and witnessed the unfortunate woman understanding and embracing the world with the greatest tenderness, always facing everything optimistically, and facing continuous malice.
Asking himself, Lu Yu couldn't do it, which also made him full of respect for Vanessa.
After learning Vanessa's knowledge and receiving her gifts, Lu Yu was willing to call her a teacher and follow her footsteps to take that step.
With just one step, he understood Sayer's mood of embracing the occlusion.
Footsteps sounded, and a young magician with blue hair passed by the bench and caught a glimpse of the scrolls placed by Lu Yu. He looked surprised and could not move his feet.
When the eyes of Lu Yu and Lulu met, the young magician apologized sheepishly and praised: "You really have... No, no, no, it seems that you love summoning very much... I guessed these scrolls are from the master."
It’s their work, it’s very expensive…I’m sorry, I’m being presumptuous.”
The overflowing envy made the young man feel particularly shy, and he turned around and left after speaking.
Lu Yu stopped him, picked up the pile of scrolls and walked over: "Do you want to see it?"
"I know the rules. Masters are not allowed to circulate privately. They can only watch alone. If they are discovered, they will lose the qualification to join the summoning school. They will not even be able to obtain future knowledge sharing and free summoning template modifications... You seem to be new here.
, then please pay attention to these rules."
Lulu's little fists clicked, but after Lu Yu gently touched her head with his hand, she immediately became obedient.
"Do you like summoning very much?" Lu Yu asked.
The young man smiled awkwardly: "Very, I can't really say, maybe a little bit... I have been confused since I became a magician, and I couldn't find a school that suits me. After the Dip Invasion, I participated in the war and got the template of Lord Gluttony. The first
The summons was completed for the first time.”
"Looking at the giant mud monster jumping in front of me, I always have a very strange feeling... It's like planting a crop on the land, caring for it hard, and finally seeing it blossom and bear fruit... I know this metaphor is strange
, but I really can’t find any other metaphor..."
"Although everyone is afraid of Lord Gluttony, saying that he likes to eat people and sea monsters...but his template is really easy to use. Although the summoned objects cannot interact with me, they simply follow orders and charge, just like puppets...
But the moment the summoning was successful, I felt like I suddenly had an extra partner, which felt really reassuring."
Lu Yu was silent for a while and smiled happily.
He picked up a scroll and erased the template on it in front of the young man.
"This, this, this...what are you doing? This is knowledge...it's gold coins!"
"No, these are nothing." Lu Yu said contemptuously.
The young man who felt extremely sad saw Lu Yu quickly drawing pictures above him before he could finish his emotion. His curiosity prompted him to stop and watch.
The young man could not understand Lu Yu's description. In the fog, he soon saw Lu Yu handing the scroll in his hand to him.
"This is not the work of a master. This is a template drawn by me...a friend who is fairly proficient in summoning. Feel free to use it."
The young man took it blankly, carefully feeling the magic power fluctuations.
Although the glutton's template has become a universal template, summoners often master one or two templates skillfully to deal with different situations. Therefore, although the young man is curious about the strength of Lu Yu's "friend", he adheres to the principle of watching more and learning more.
I still accepted the idea.
"Thank you."
"No need."
The young man walked out for two steps and then turned back to Lu Yu. He rummaged around in the backpack he was carrying and found a scroll.
"This is another summoning template that has been spread among the people recently. It is said that it can obtain powerful summoning support in critical moments and solve urgent needs. I also spent a few silver coins to get it. Please make a rubbing, so that we can
It’s considered a fair deal.”
"Is there such a template?" Lu Yu was greatly surprised. With the heart of an apprentice, he triggered the circuit of the template...
Cold sweat broke out from Lu Yu's forehead, and his body began to tremble.
"You mean, folklore?"
The young man who still didn't feel the change in Lu Yu's tone smiled and replied: "Yes, I bought it from someone outside a tavern after entering Rodmir."
"You didn't try it out?"
"I tried it. Under the guidance of that person, I did summon the extraordinary headless horseman, but the seller told me that it is best to give the order in a critical moment, so I followed his prompts and dispersed it on the spot as an emergency measure.
, This is indeed a good one... Are you okay?"
Seeing Lu Yu's serious expression, a chill ran down the young man's spine.
"Is that really a bunch of beasts? It's really hard to summon them if they are with you, a bunch of insects!"
