As night approaches, Lu Yu’s third day of paying the summoning price begins again.
Lulutis stayed by Lu Yu's side as usual to prevent any accidents.
Sigrid, who continued to train her physical skills in the yard, raised her head and saw the carriage of the Lord's Mansion appearing not far away.
It was not Duke Guy who came, but one of his personal followers.
Just now, the coalition of nobles who went deep into the Goblin Underground Palace last night and were surrounded and suppressed returned with several survivors. They found Duke Guy and informed him that there were still more than 20 survivors in the Underground Palace being detained by the Goblin King.
The Goblin King did not abuse them, but asked them many questions. In order to survive, the nobles told them everything they knew. On the contrary, the adventurers had some backbone and treated them as mute.
Goblins have few channels for understanding humans. One is the language barrier and the different races. Therefore, they can only learn about humans from the mouths of prisoners of war, and vice versa.
Duke Guy was very lucky. Fortunately, he did not let these nobles know more information about the three border cities. They were so greedy for life and fearful of death. It was a real cancer.
The Goblin King also asked these people to come back with a message, saying that he wanted to meet Lu Yu. The location was set in the black forest by the river in the Luotan Plain. As long as Lu Yu was willing to show up, he would send a huge fire.
One part lizard's corrosive fluid.
Duke Guy instinctively felt that there was a trick, and this was a trap to lure Lu Yu to show up and kill him.
However, the chosen location is on the ground, which is obviously more beneficial to humans. They can check it out in advance before choosing whether to accept the invitation.
However, in order to prevent these escaped nobles and adventurers from kidnapping Lu Yu morally and forcing him to rescue the nobles in the underground palace, or from spreading such mindless and outrageous remarks that Lu Yu colluded with the Goblin King,
The Duke still temporarily detained them under the "Border Wartime Regulations".
No matter why the Goblin King asked to meet, the decision-making power rested with Lu Yu himself.
After the Duke's entourage left, Sigrid found Lulutis in the room.
Sigrid pushed open the ajar door and saw that her master was sweating profusely. He was retching continuously. Then he suddenly gritted his teeth and held the pillow in his arms with both hands and refused to let go.
"This is…"
"Dream#￥@dream."
The noise suddenly became sharp, covering up part of Lulutis' words, but Sigrid still understood.
"It looks like a terrible nightmare."
With that said, she repeated the words of the Duke's personal entourage to Lulutis, and handed over the letter.
Lulutis twisted the letter with her tentacles and checked it, but found no hidden magic tricks.
It seems that he was not angry and planned to poison the letter or use a magic device to attack Lu Yu.
Putting the letter aside, Lulutis dipped her tentacles in water and drew a sun on the table, indicating that she would wait until dawn.
No one's life is at stake, Lu Yu can't handle such a big thing, and now he is in great misfortune in his dream.
Lulutis thought hard all day long, but could not recall any mention of the third price payment in any books about summoning.
Fortunately, for now, the third cost is just a nightmare.
The rooster crows at ten o'clock, and Lu Yu wakes up on time.
Lulutis, who had been watching for most of the night, fell asleep beside Lu Yu's bed tiredly. Lu Yu couldn't bear to disturb her and went downstairs to find food.
Sigrid, who already knew Lu Yu's schedule, prepared breakfast early.
Because Lu Yu said yesterday not to eat steak, but to eat something light and tasty, Sigrid specially bought some pudding and prepared a bowl of milk, two eggs, a few slices of bread, a bowl of gruel, and some
Strawberry jam.
It was a very light breakfast, and Lu Yu would definitely have eaten it if he had eaten it normally.
But today...
Lu Yu pushed the pudding out in front of him, took a small bowl and turned it upside down to cover it.
The strawberry jam was put out of sight and replaced with a bottle of tomatoes... Forget it, you go to jail with the strawberry jam.
When Lulutis woke up and saw that Lu Yu was not around, she was startled, and then she breathed a sigh of relief when she found that it was already dawn.
She floated to Lu Yu's side and saw the pudding that was upside down in the bowl. She subconsciously went to uncover it, but Lu Yu reached out to stop it.
"Lulu, this is for you to eat. I have a bad appetite."
"Well... take it to a place where I can't see it, thank you."
Lulutis originally wanted to ask what she dreamed about yesterday, and she hugged the pillow as if it were a life-saving straw all night long. But now looking at Lu Yu's reaction, she chose not to ask.
"Yesterday it was steak, today it's pudding...oh, it seems like there isn't even jam on your table..."
Lu Yu threw the egg to Lulutis.
"What did you see? You didn't even eat the eggs!"
"Who said I don't want to eat? I'm lazy. Anyway, you have many hands, help me peel the shells!"
After taking two sips of the porridge, Lu Yu's energy and energy returned to normal.
Hearing the invitation from the Goblin King, Lu Yu was a little confused, and his first reaction was "Only a fool would go."
After turning the underground palace into a mess and killing so many goblins, the Goblin King must hate himself to the core. Wouldn't he be willing to die by showing up at this time?
When he heard that the Goblin King also had the corrosive fluid of the giant salamander and was willing to give it to him, Lu Yu was a little hesitant.
If you come to the ground, the Goblin King who is no longer the gold level is far less scary.
Lu Yu didn't think that the Goblin King wanted to trade with him. From the details of the previous siege, it could be seen that the Goblin King was wise and would not make a decision that would easily put his race in danger.
.
Now that he knows that he needs the corrosive liquid of the giant salamander, he can naturally know from the survivors that he is just a passerby in the Yas Kingdom and will not stay here at all. He cannot last long in the battle between the Yas Kingdom and the Goblin Underground Palace.
intervention.
Just to vent one's anger, he would attack a traveler who was only participating for the prize and force him to completely join the Yas Kingdom camp, which would be of no benefit to the Goblin King.
"Forget it, a fool will be a fool, I would like to know what he plans to do."
Lu Yu planned to find Judith's team and call Andrew's knights to escort them.
At the same time, hire the mithril adventurer with the best reputation in Black Shield City to hide near the conversation area in advance and always pay attention to the movements of the goblins.
After making up my mind, the remaining question was how to inform the Goblin King of the news.
After finding Duke Guy and asking, I learned the details explained by the Goblin King.
If Lu Yu agrees, he only needs to send people to insert two swords at any intersection in the underground palace on the west side.
After the Duke sent someone to insert the sword, Lu Yu stood up and left.
Before leaving, Duke Guy asked: "It's not too late for the Marquis to regret it now. Goblin has always been cunning and has no credibility at all. He tempted you with the Salamander corrosive fluid you most desire. He should have saved it for killing."
your heart."
Lu Yu looked at Duke Guy and heard something in his words.
"What are the Duke's plans?"
Duke Guy took a sip of tea and said, "As long as the Marquis accepts the appointment, the Goblin King will never go to the appointment alone. His bodyguards, the elite Goblins, and even the rumored new Goblin King may also come with him."
Appear."
"At that time, the Marquis only needs to ask his companions to protect him and escape from the battlefield. Our cavalry can quickly cut through the Goblin camp, inflict heavy damage, and even wipe out the elite of the Goblin underground palace!"
"As long as we do this, the Lotan Plains will be around the corner, and the Goblin Underground Palace will become history!"
There was a viciousness in his calm words, and the burn scars on Duke Guy seemed to come to life, turning into a ball of flame and covering his face.
Lu Yu sat down again.
"Duke, please tell me the truth. Is there anything you didn't tell me about the message the Goblin King sent me?"
The two looked at each other in silence.
Lu Yu's eyes were as sharp as a knife, but Guy Gujing was unwavering.
After a long time, there was a ripple in the well water.
"The Goblin King said that this exchange has nothing to do with race."
Lu Yu smiled, stood up and left without saying another word.
Nothing he said could change Duke Guy's mind. In that case, why bother?
Disfigured in the duel with the Goblin King, Duke Guy has never defeated the Goblin King since then.
At this time, the Goblin King was old and frail, and this wise and wise lord who insisted on guarding Black Shield City finally couldn't bear it anymore.
He really wanted to win, but if he didn't defeat the Goblin King again, he would have no chance.
Even bullying an old king is a victory for him.
Ever since Lu Yu told him that the Goblin King was old and frail and had declined in rank, he, who was known for being mature and prudent, had been ready to make a move. At this time, the fire in his heart must have been burning brightly, right?
The decision was made, whether it was for curiosity or to obtain materials for Lulutis... Lu Yu wanted to talk to the first creature in the different world that he came to that could feel the aura of the king.
