The rewards redeemed from the Duke's Mansion and the rewards received from the Adventurer's Guild were piled together, forming three large boxes.
For a group of adamantine-level adventurers, this is wealth they have never dared to imagine.
The death of Duke Guy left the Duke's Palace in chaos, and even the accounts and rewards were somewhat unclear.
Judith originally thought that her team's bounty would not be paid, but she never thought that because of his previous fame with Lu Yu, the heir of Duke Guy paid the bill readily.
Waller rode out for a day and brought Judith quotations for fields in many towns behind Black Shield City. By the way, he also got to know the details of the nobles where the fields were located.
Buying land is inevitable. They don't want to lick blood every day and continue to fight monsters until they are old and frail.
Be prepared for danger in times of peace, and before everyone spends the money they have just earned, planning for the future in advance is the right way to go.
Waller proposed that when buying land, you also need to buy slaves. With slaves, you don't need to worry about labor.
However, Judith did not agree to the proposal immediately. Instead, she looked at Warren and Olga who were counting the money.
Before these two people could express their opinions, there was a knock on the door.
Judith opened the door and found Lu Yu and Sigrid, who warmly welcomed him into the room.
As soon as Lu Yu entered the room, he was blinded by the coins all over the floor.
"Sooner or later you're going to spend money, why are you wiping it so clean?" Lu Yu couldn't help but complain.
Warren and Olga rubbed their heads in tacit agreement and laughed awkwardly.
Olga said: "We are all used to being poor. It costs money to rent a house, money to maintain weapons, money to eat, money to heal, and money to buy various props. We usually have nothing left to hunt monsters. Let's form a team quickly.
It’s been two years, and everyone has been so poor.”
Warren continued: "With the money, Judith suggested buying land. All the money will probably be spent soon. We just want to clean it up and experience the nobles lying there in the past two days.
What does it feel like to sleep among piles of money?"
Waller curled his lips and said, "I'm just a noble idiot, sleeping on coins doesn't hurt my skin. If I want to sleep with you, I want to sleep on the bed tonight."
It's rare for the adventurer team to be so relaxed. They can only take one step at a time. For the first time, they try to look to the farther future.
After getting along for a short time, Lu Yu also knew that Judith and others were enthusiastic adventurers with a sense of justice, not to mention that they all fought side by side and did not give up on each other even in the most critical moments.
Andrew had been reminded before that he came to Judith this time to inform them of the upcoming danger.
"There will be unrest in Yas?"
The foursome repeated what Lu Yu said in unison.
Yas III worked hard to govern. Although Duke Guy, the great lord of Black Shield City, jumped into the battle and was killed, the Black Shield Knights have initially stabilized the situation. As long as Duke Guy's heirs take over the rights to the territory, everything will return to the way it was before.
The death of the Goblin King basically means that the Goblins in the underground palace of the Lotan Plains can only enter a defensive state and cannot cause chaos in a short period of time. In addition, adventurers are constantly weakening their strength. No matter how you look at it, the situation is great.
"Earl Nott in the south of the Kingdom of Yas has led a group of lords to start privately minting coins. This matter will soon be hidden. What is the concept of privately minting coins? I don't need to tell you, right?"
"The death of the Goblin King is the biggest problem in Yas." Judith quickly figured out the key. She stood up in surprise and became a little nervous.
Lu Yu nodded slightly: "No one in the Kingdom of Yas can match the gold-level Goblin King. This has led to the fact that although the nobles are fighting among themselves, they can still maintain the same hatred towards the Goblins... But the Goblins
The king is dead."
Even Waller, who was having trouble with his brain, was already breaking out in a cold sweat.
Things couldn't be clearer. With the border issues eased and the Goblins unable to take advantage of the turmoil in the Kingdom of Yas to invade, it would naturally be time for the conservative nobles and pro-royal nobles in the country to settle their own scores.
Yas III should have never dreamed that the nobles he sent to the front line were not killed by goblins on the spot, but captured, and that there were actually goblins who could analyze the situation in Yas through the information provided by the nobles.
The death of the Goblin King directly pushed the domestic conflicts in the Kingdom of Yas to its peak.
Both Ass III and the Goblin King made decisions that were beneficial to their own countries, but in terms of results, the Goblin King was far better than Ass III.
As for the situation in Yas, some people think centralization is better, while others think feudal lordship is better. Since everyone can't convince the other party, let's fight.
Whoever wins and whoever is right doesn’t need to convince anymore.
Olga looked at the coins lying on the ground and looked at Judith with a questioning look: "Are we still buying land?"
If, as Lu Yu said, civil war would break out in the future, then the land they bought would not give them a sense of peace of mind at all.
"The king should be able to win, right?" Valen asked tentatively.
"Andrew's own conclusion is that if you give the king two years, you may have a good chance of winning, but we indirectly caused the death of the Goblin King, and now the balanced relationship is broken, so... the odds of winning are now half and half."
A 50-50 decision is the most painful conclusion, which means that as long as the war starts, it will not be over for a while, and the two sides are very likely to form a situation of attrition.
No matter who wins, the damage to ordinary people will be the greatest.
Judith's mind was spinning quickly, and she quickly understood the information Lu Yu provided for her.
She first reminded the other three to keep their mouths shut and began to abstain from drinking to prevent the news from leaking.
Immediately afterwards, she decided on the spot not to buy land, but to buy grain crops and seeds... After thinking about it, she also stocked up on some wine.
Food and medicine were hard currencies during wartime. As for how to avoid forced expropriation, it was up to Judith to think about it herself.
The only thing Lu Yu could do to help her was to give her a last resort.
On the paper, the charcoal pencil painted a dark ball, and the surrounding area was randomly traced with a feeling of mist, with countless tentacles stretching out from the mist.
Next to the black mist is a wolf's head and a stick figure.
All three are covered by a huge love.
"Bypassing the Earldom of Nott, go to the forest in the direction of the Snowy Mountains. There is a very, very huge tree there. The tree hole is extremely spacious, and there is a pattern similar to this one inside."
"If you get to a place and wander around, there is a white wolf in that area, who is the overlord of that area. Show him the picture and he will understand what it means."
Judith took the portrait and looked at it for a moment, then suddenly thought of something.
She looked at the backpack that Lu Yu had been carrying, and recalled again the tentacle monster that had not disappeared with the flesh and blood chariot the night it disappeared.
Judith smiled and saluted Lu Yu, and the other three people saw the captain doing this and followed closely behind.
If Lu Yu had not specifically informed them of this information, they would probably not know it until the war was about to begin. By then, the materials would have been hoarded by the nobles. If they wanted to obtain them, they would probably have to work for the nobles.
Serving the nobles means going to the battlefield, and the four of them couldn't even make a splash when they entered the battlefield.
Lu Yu's move was equivalent to saving their lives. Not only that, he also found a way out for them.
From the moment they met Lu Yu, the four people who had been having good luck couldn't help but feel that Lu Yu was their god of luck.
If they hadn't boarded the flesh and blood chariot by mistake and fought alongside Lu Yu, how could they have been praised by the adventurers in Black Shield City and become somewhat famous from unknown people?
if not for them
Olga just realized what she said at this time. Lu Yu seemed to be leaving the Kingdom of Yas.
"Yes, I'm leaving soon. After paying the price of the summons tomorrow, I'll have a rest before setting off."
Knowing that Lu Yu was traveling around, the four of them did not hold back, but stepped forward to hug Lu Yu and Sigrid one by one.
When Judith hugged Lu Yu, she whispered in his ear: "Say hello to me and your tentacle companions."
Lu Yu was surprised for a moment, and then laughed.
"She's heard it."
The four wanted to do something to thank Lu Yu, but they were embarrassed to find that Lu Yu didn't need their services at all.
"I really need your help with two things."
"First of all, if you see the white wolf, take care of each other."
The foursome agreed without thinking.
"Secondly... Actually, I also entrusted Andrew to help find it. Please help me keep an eye on this."
Lu Yu took out the suicide note he picked up in the forest and the bag of coins and gave them to the group of four.
"This adventurer named Naka did not mention who his brother was. He only said that he lived in the Royal City before, but I really couldn't find him in the Royal City, so I hope you can help deliver the relics."
After Lu Yu finished speaking, he noticed that Judith, Waller, and Olga had sad expressions on their faces.
Warren held the suicide note and asked Lu Yu in a trembling voice where he found it, and Lu Yu answered truthfully.
After getting the answer, Warren began to cry loudly, and his voice quickly became hoarse after suddenly rising in pitch.
Heartbreaking.
Waller stepped forward and hugged him: "Cry louder, cry louder... After you cry, just pretend that nothing happened... In this industry, there are always many accidents. Don't you do the same when you are an adventurer?
Are you prepared for not being able to come back one day?"
Olga explained to Lu Yu that Naka was the captain of Sister Valen's team. They had all been active in the royal city before, and about half a year ago, the two teams that had a good relationship separated briefly.
Judith's team went east and came to the Eastern Territory to continue making money.
The Naka team headed south, hoping to complete the last order and go to the east together to pan for gold.
Maybe there really is some kind of curse on the last order, as there is a saying that has been circulating in the adventurer circle.
When you do something risky as the last thing, bad luck will catch up with you.
"But Naka seems to be a Baimu-level adventurer... you are adamantine-level." Lu Yu was puzzled.
"It's a disguise. Some teams will recruit people who deliberately do not rise to the adventurer level and pretend to be weak. In fact, these people are not bad. Just like me... I am the only one in the team who has passed the mithril assessment."
Now Lu Yu knew why Olga's shield was so strong in the underground palace and it was so deep!
After the Naka team lost contact, Warren always wanted to make more money, go to the south, and hire more people to find his sister's whereabouts.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yu, the god of luck, saved him this expense, but at the same time, it also brought him bad news that he was unwilling to accept.
Lu Yu didn't know if this was a kind of fate. His experience in Yas was like a circle. When he was about to leave, the circle closed front and back.
The kindness that should be repaid has been repaid, and the trust that should be settled has been settled.
