Lu Yu was also unambiguous and immediately explained the current situation of the two of them to Lulutis.
The problem they urgently need to solve is communication.
After all, if you want to unlock Lulutis' seal, you must go to an inhabited area and collect the corresponding materials.
Lu Yu is language-impaired, and Lulutis' ability to speak is sealed, which is equivalent to both being mute.
Lulutis is in an endless loop.
To unlock the seal, you need to be able to speak.
If you want to be able to speak, you need to unlock the seal.
Now the only one who can break this cycle of death is Lu Yu.
"I need language and text information about this world, as well as some basic knowledge."
These two things are essential.
Lu Yu was already ready to learn a foreign language, and he didn't know if he could reach the level of listening and reading without difficulty in a winter.
Lulutis rolled up the half-filled bottle of slime juice with her tentacles, stretched it out in front of Lu Yu and shook it.
"If the mental magic is stable and smooth enough, I can probably speed up your information acquisition."
"But I need materials, and the materials that can provide a large amount of magic elements must be sufficient."
Lu Yu glanced at the slime that he had cut into pieces and hung on the wall, and sighed helplessly.
"But where are we going to find so many slimes?"
Lulutis's tentacles were swaying gently, and her tone was full of curiosity and excitement.
"What do you call...making fire?"
"Lighter?" Lu Yu said, taking out a lighter from his backpack.
"Yes, this is it, can you let me see it?"
"please."
When Lu Yu lit the bonfire today, he felt something was wrong with Lulutis, flying up and down beside him and spinning around him.
At the time, she thought she was interested in the process of cooking slime, but now it seems that what she is really interested in is the lighter.
What is it about this thing that makes her excited?
Lulutis's tentacles were seen wrapped around the lighter, and black mist spewed out, submerging the lighter.
"If you don't want to help me drill wood to make fire every day, you'd better not eat the lighter." Lu Yu quickly stood up to stop him.
Lu Yu didn't smoke. The reason why he had a lighter was because his dormitory director caught it in his hand.
"Bass, maybe you will smoke in the future?" The dormitory leader patted Lu Yu on the shoulder and called him his nickname affectionately.
No, the entire dormitory is full of smokers, and the students in the dormitory are basically surrounded by clouds and mist, as if they are in a "wonderland".
After enjoying this kind of environment, he will never want to smoke in his life.
He originally wanted to say this, but looking at the empty dormitory, he silently put away the lighter.
Unexpectedly, this lighter would eventually come in handy in places Lu Yu could not have imagined.
"It's strange...Why doesn't this magic tool of yours have any magical aura at all?"
The black fog faded, and Lulutis held a small lighter with two tentacles, confused.
here we go again…
"How can it have a magical aura? This thing is just an ordinary lighter. What do you think it is?"
"But I saw you gently... Hey, where is the mechanism? Why can't I find it?"
Lu Yu, who couldn't stand it anymore, stepped forward, grabbed the lighter, pushed the lid of the lighter, and pressed it.
Seeing the flames burst out, Lulutis was stunned.
"Understand, let me reiterate, this is not magic, this is..."
Lu Yu was about to blurt out science, but he held back.
The topic of magic and science almost made him collapse last time, so it would be a wise choice not to talk about it.
There is no need for Lulutis to know too much about science.
Lulutis likes lighters very much, although she can't understand how this weird-looking thing can generate flames.
If it's not a magic tool, could it possibly contain salamander phosphorus powder or a match that can burn for a long time?
"It's time to get to the point. You asked me for a lighter, aren't you just for fun?"
Lulutis returned the lighter to Lu Yu and said, "I just want to tell you through this thing that I mistakenly thought was a magic tool. There are some cores that drive magic in the magic tools carried by some magicians."
"Some of these cores will retain sufficient magic elements, which can be utilized with a little guidance."
Lu Yu covered his forehead: "Miss Lulutis, we can't even speak human words, you still expect us to find a magician to communicate?"
"I have no intention of contacting magicians." Lulutis corrected, "Also, I am not a young lady."
Lulutis said: "You said that you once witnessed cavalry and slaves passing through, which proves that although this area is remote, it is not uninhabited."
"A place like this must be home to a large number of adventurers. They take risks in this area. I don't think everyone can return safely."
Lu Yu was stunned. He understood what Lulutis was looking for. At the same time, he also remembered something.
"I did see a group of people in strange clothes get into a fight before. The scene was like light pollution..."
Lulutis was excited, her tentacles quickly wrapped around Lu Yu, and she planned to walk out.
Lulutis might have rushed out if Lu Yu hadn't reminded her that it was already dark and it was easy not only to get lost but also to be stared at by strange things when she went out.
Early the next morning, Lu Yu took Lulutis to the area where he remembered the magician's conflagration.
Since more than half a month had passed, there were naturally no corpses left, but some of the various objects abandoned after the battle could still be found.
Lu Yu held the knight's sword drawn from a big tree and carefully followed Lulutis to help her clear the surrounding snow.
Lulutis, on the other hand, wrapped a tentacle around Lu Yu's waist, fearing that a monster would suddenly attack nearby.
Now that the fate of the two is tied together, nothing can happen to Lu Yu no matter what.
Lulutis didn't dare to bet that she could meet someone outside the sealing rules.
Suddenly, Lulutis's tentacles and Lu Yu's feet touched something hard at the same time.
Lulutis was about to use her tentacles to remove the snow when she glanced at Lu Yu and found that he was also plowing the snow with a knight's sword as a shovel, and he was four or five steps away from her...
After hesitating for a moment, Lulutis used her tentacles to lift Lu Yu into the air and pulled him to her side.
Lu Yu experienced being lifted high for no reason, and he was a little confused.
"I found something, why did you drag me here?"
"Your combat power is too low, I'm afraid something will happen to you."
Lulutis said, without stopping her tentacles. After pushing the snow away, a green, slender stick that looked like it was made of bamboo came into view.
"Put it in your backpack."
Lu Yu took it and looked at it for a while, convinced that this was the staff used by magicians in this world.
I don’t know if I need to have the corresponding magic props to cast spells.
If that's the case, will there be interference magic that specifically removes weapons?
Returning to the place where Lu Yu had just stepped on something, Lulutis rolled up her tentacles, and a book with a metallic luster on its title page appeared in front of her.
"Luckily, this will work too."
With that said, he threw the book to Lu Yu.
Lu Yu opened the book and saw the words of this world for the first time.
This is a very obscure hieroglyphic script. Some of the characters have a bit of a cuneiform character, but they are also mixed with some crooked "tadpoles", like relatives of oracle bone inscriptions.
After opening this book, Lu Yu became illiterate again.
After searching for a long time, just before leaving, Lulutis dug out a heavy cloth bag filled with brass-colored coins, which was an unexpected surprise.
The two of them didn't stop much, and quickly returned to the tree hole along the way they came.
The reason why they were so anxious was because both of them saw bones without any flesh and blood under the snow.
These white bones are very scattered, and some are broken into two pieces, but they are all very clean.
It was as clean as if it had been licked by something.
Judging from the time when he witnessed the fire merger, Lu Yu did not think that this was an effect that natural decay could achieve.
Along the way, Lu Yu stopped several times to let Lulutis repeatedly confirm that nothing was stalking behind him, and then he returned to the tree hole with peace of mind.
Lulutis entered the tree hole with a large bag of loot and began to count it.
Lu Yu took out some branches from the tree hole, broke them, placed them in all directions of the tree hole, and finally picked up the snow to cover the branches.
There are monsters that have stored food to hibernate, and there are monsters that are short of food and have no choice but to brave the severe cold and start hunting mode.
Although Lulutis's body is very reliable, you can never go wrong with being cautious.
Especially now that both of them see a way out of this predicament is possible.
After finishing all this, when Lu Yu returned to the tree hole, he was shocked to find that the entire tree hole was extremely bright, with colorful lights reflecting each other.
If he hadn't seen Lulutis' black mist body floating not far away, Lu Yu would have thought that he had traveled through time again, and to a certain disco.
The various magic instruments that were brought back before were already broken to pieces.
Realizing that Lu Yu was back, Lulutis put down the things tied to the tentacles and placed them in the grooves that Lu Yu had dug on the wall of the tree hole.
After leaving Lulutis, the light of those strange objects of different shapes dimmed and was no longer as brilliant as before.
"It should barely last for a while. I hope your ability to accept it is strong."
"You don't have to worry about my ability to accept things. Besides trying to learn from you, is there anything else I can do now?"
"With no distractions, I believe the learning efficiency will be very high."
Lu Yu said as he checked the last trophy in his backpack, the bag of copper coins.
The copper coins were shaken to the ground, and a piece of folded cloth came into view.
When he picked it up and looked at it, he saw that it was densely written with words, but Lu Yu couldn't understand a single word.
Lulutis took it and stared at it for a while, then sighed.
"It's a suicide note. Most people who go on adventures always carry a copy with them. If they are buried in the wilderness, they can hope that the person who picked up the relics will do something for him."
