The red-haired woman simply left the temple after letting Lu Yu watch the [Shadow Substitute] that had been shown. When she came back, a headless figure riding a horse and holding a sword was emerging from her shadow.
knight.
"[Headless Horseman] is as fast as the wind and can chop off the opponent's head unexpectedly. As a surprise weapon, it is far more aggressive than [Shadow] and is more suitable for sneak attacks."
After the Headless Horseman, [Shadow Mage] was also summoned by the red-haired woman.
"[Shadow Mage], I believe you can guess based on the previous naming. This is a summoner who can hide in the shadows and launch magical attacks. The types of magic I have witnessed so far cover a wide range. The power of the magic depends on
How much magic power can you provide to it? If you want to go all out, give it all the magic power..." The red-haired woman said with a hint of arrogance, "Even if you two stand in front of me, you may be wiped out unexpectedly."
Orkus smiled faintly, but in his heart he only felt that the woman in front of him was too young. His words seemed to show off his knowledge and strength, but it revealed his inner worries and fears about summoning the first two pioneers.
Glossy.
Lu Yu didn't bother to consider whether this was a flaw deliberately leaked by the red-haired woman or something else. Now he was just a pure summoning pioneer. After examining the three template summons that had been displayed, he asked.
"If you don't have false propaganda, then there are still many summons that are not displayed in this so-called [Shadow Kingdom] template, right?"
The red-haired woman was honest: "Even I have not mastered all the summons in [Shadow Kingdom]. During the exploration process, I have a feeling that some summons are far beyond my control now."
When Orkus heard this, his mind moved and he wanted to say something, but he saw that Lu Yu seemed to be thinking and closed his mouth again.
After Lu Yu showed the [Mimetic Monster] in the same way, the red-haired woman became interested.
"Plants and monsters are matched, and when they are still and move, this is the complete template, right?"
Lu Yu was noncommittal: "In my opinion, it is a complete template alone, but the application direction is different. Are you satisfied with this price?"
Seeing that the red-haired woman was silent, Lu Yu smiled and snorted: "My price is only up to this point, and I won't add any more. What's successful is what's not. In addition, although you may feel that you are hiding well, but in the
In the eyes of Shushan and I, you have exposed a lot of information. For example, you have not explored this [Shadow Kingdom] for a long time, and you do not know much about these summons."
There was a trace of panic in the red-haired woman's eyes, but she was very calm on the outside. With a little questioning, she said "oh" in question.
"You don't need to panic, and you don't need to hide it. As the earliest recognized pioneers, we do have some knowledge that you don't know. You introduced [Shadow Kingdom] and never mentioned certain things, which made us realize that you really know the template.
You’re not proficient, because you haven’t discovered anything more interesting yet.”
Lu Yu clicked as far as he could. He imitated the conservativeness of the red-haired woman and stuck the information at the most critical place.
"Humph, you're just trying to be mysterious." The red-haired woman didn't feel confident in what she said. "What does what you're talking about have to do with exchange?"
"Look, your words completely confirm all the previous speculations."
Lu Yu and Orkus laughed in tacit agreement.
If the red-haired woman has a certain understanding of templates and has a certain level of control over summoned objects, she will inevitably discover the "blessing" effect that templates give to the summoner.
After in-depth exploration by the members of the Dawnland summoning team, [Mimetic Plants], [Mimetic Monsters], and [Elemental Life], they all obtained different blessings from the template summons. It can be said that this is the template summons that assists the summoner.
An important part, but the red-haired woman knew nothing about it.
The red-haired woman knew that she had revealed a fatal flaw, but she didn't know what that flaw was. She could only pretend to be calm and let the two of them laugh at her, and then lightly said that they could exchange it.
She lacked confidence and couldn't find any room to pull.
"Two for one, it's a good deal... Maybe I can find out the reason why I was teased from these two templates?" the red-haired woman thought to herself.
Lu Yu readily paid a deposit for a template, demonstrated the summoning process to the red-haired woman, and listed the suitable summoning materials.
"Do you need me to guide your magic summoning? This summoning process is actually quite complicated. Even I did it by mistake..."
"Oh, this is [Shadow]. It is exactly the same as me. After all, they are all black. Shushan, do you think it is a good match for me?"
Seeing that Lu Yu successfully summoned him once, he started playing Duo with [Shadow], and for the first time a dull look appeared on the red-haired woman's cold face.
Even she, after summarizing the summoning process, still had several failed summoning records, and could not guarantee 100% accuracy. She attributed this to the instability of the summoning template, but this ball of coal in front of her...
"It's okay, I made money, these are two templates."
With this thought in mind, the red-haired woman immediately urged Lu Yu to finish. It wasn't until the [Mimetic Monster] was in her hands that she breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and was about to leave.
"etc."
"Anything else?"
Lu Yu pointed at himself with a tentacle, and then at Orkus: "Before you arrived, no pioneers had actually appeared in this temple for hundreds of years. The last batch of pioneers died with the idea of revival call.
Their obsession was buried under the ruins and lingered for a long time. It was not until they were called into a new era that they left happily, leaving the responsibility and mission in the hands of the two of us."
"Shushan and I both arrived here by chance. Although there was a little friction, we both recognized each other in the end. He and I both believe that cooperation is an important part of summoning recovery and development, so we haven't met since not long ago.
After that, I shared all kinds of summoning knowledge.”
The red-haired woman turned around.
"The resonance of knowledge allows us to make more progress. Those difficult problems that we could only think about alone in the depths of our minds continue to collide and rub against each other in conversations. The sparks generated always allow us to gain something inadvertently."
"We once thought that only our two pioneers would appear in the summons, but now it seems that is not the case. You, the snake man, and the white butterfly. Now a total of three pioneers have appeared in the summons. Unfortunately, the attitudes of the other two
Not very friendly.”
"You want to invite me to join your small group?" The red-haired woman frowned.
"In the eyes of Pink Butterfly and Snake Man, pioneers are competitors, but in fact, the earliest pioneers who lived in the era when the summoning water flow dried up, what they did was always share with each other."
The red-haired woman said: "You also know that those were the first batch. At that time, the summons had stopped flowing. What they should think about is to stop the flow of water from drying up. And now the summons is reviving. Who is the most powerful?
Whether summoners and pioneers can touch more special power, or even authority... who knows?"
"You have such a close relationship with Shushan. Have you ever thought about what you would do one day when the pioneers have to compete and have to compete for something? Which one of you will give in?"
Seeing Orkus and Lu Yu being silent together, the red-haired woman laughed inwardly.
In reality, she has seen too many close partners fighting each other for profit. Maybe it was for a piece of gold, a scroll, or maybe it was just because someone forgot to pay the bill when they were drinking yesterday. It was just a trivial matter.
It's not uncommon for people to fall out.
Compared with the pioneers, those benefits are nothing. Ever since she heard some kind of revelation and arrived at the temple, she felt that the end of the pioneers was most likely the road to becoming a god.
There have been fanatical religious groups in her continent who claim to have heard the voice of the void, and that voice claims to be their god.
Although she suspected that this was self-directed and performed by religion in order to strengthen its influence in this turbulent time, it also inspired her invisibly.
"We have actually discussed what you are talking about a long time ago." Orkus said, "When the time comes, we will each rely on our own abilities, but before that, we only hope to be the pioneers to revive the summons more.
Hurry up...isn’t this our responsibility?”
This was an unexpected answer from the red-haired woman. She had never thought about these things before, so she was stunned for a while and then turned around hesitantly.
When she was about to leave the temple, she turned back: "I need to think about it."
Orkus took the [Shadow Kingdom] summoning process that Lu Yu copied and asked, "Do you think she will agree?"
"Who knows... Not everyone has that sense of responsibility like you and me. To them, the status of a pioneer is more like a recognition and an honor. As for the responsibilities that match it, maybe they don't have it.
I have experienced an era when summoners were discriminated against, so I don’t feel the same way.”
Lu Yu would never forget the ridicule and discrimination he would hear when he mentioned his identity as a summoner during his travels. This was a curse that had been with the summoner for many years.
"Obviously, if we work together to widen the canals, everyone can drink water, and we can use the abundant water to do more things...Obviously, they are already thinking about such distant things before they have fully recovered from the summons. I really don't know if they are far-sighted or...
