74. Giant dragon, fog demon

 Sigrid, led by the cavalry, quickly arrived at the city of Suna at the foot of the mountain.

Probably because it was already dark, there were very few pedestrians in the city, and most of the people active were soldiers.

Compared with Yas Royal City, which is already brightly lit even late at night, this place seems much darker, which makes people wonder whether the lord lacks lighting crystals, or is saving money so much that he doesn't even want to light the torch.

The lord of Suna City happened to be hosting a banquet for the nobles in the city tonight, so when the cavalry escorted by Sigrid all the way back informed him of the "important news", the lord just told the people below to be vigilant tonight, and everything would wait until the banquet was over.

Say it again.

For Sigrid who helped him, the lord generously invited her to attend the banquet.

At Lulutis's signal, Sigrid did not refuse the invitation.

Sigrid felt that Lulutis's reaction was very strange after seeing the cavalry, as if she had forgotten that her master and she were lost, and she was unwilling to explain her decision.

The aristocrats in classical attire and wigs held up wine glasses and greeted each other at the banquet that was illuminated by lighting crystals. They enjoyed the appetizing delicacies on the table while drinking from the glasses.

Good wine and hearty laughter from time to time.

Following Lulutis's prompt, Sigrid sat in a corner of the banquet without saying a word.

Sigrid, who had not eaten for almost a whole day, was a little hungry. She stared at the delicious food on the table not far away and asked: "Can I have a bite?"

"no."

"oh…"

Sigrid continued to sit upright obediently. She could not understand what Lulutis was doing, but she would never go against her will.

Finally, the chatting nobles noticed Sigrid sitting in the corner, and someone recognized that this was the guest brought by the lord today.

"Do as I say." Lulutis reminded.

Sigrid stood up with a smile and greeted the nobles who came to talk.

Following Lu Yu and being trained by Lulutis, she was not lacking in etiquette. After a conversation, several nobles were very satisfied with Sigrid's behavior.

Sigrid's ears moved slightly, and then she showed an expression of disbelief.

Immediately afterwards, she smiled and revealed the fact that she was just a servant, not a noble, and had been reduced to a slave before.

The surrounding nobles were silent for a moment, but then they all laughed.

"It doesn't matter, we don't care about this. You are the lord's guest, and you are our guest."

"Yes, Suna City welcomes you."

As he said this, some nobles brought food to Sigrid.

"You've been here for so long, but you haven't tried our food yet. This is cooked by a very skilled chef. Why don't you try it?"

The aroma of food penetrated Sigrid's nose, causing her saliva to secrete wildly.

"I forgot to mention that I was beaten into a slave because of my affair with a young master from an earl's family."

Sigrid added something based on what Lulutis said.

The reaction of the surrounding nobles was still the same as before.

Lulutis jumped out from Sigrid's backpack, quickly tied up the nobles in front of her with her tentacles, and then twisted their necks bit by bit.

Sigrid was stunned for a moment when she saw Lulutis murdering others. After reacting, she did not hesitate. She opened the mixed-blood furnace and punched two nobles who rushed forward to death.

The lord who was chatting with a group of people not far away saw this sudden scene and wanted to stop loudly, but he did not expect Lulutis to speed up and directly pierce the tentacle into her heart.

"What do you think a noble is? A philanthropist who treats the weak with kindness?"

Sigrid, who had just crushed someone's arm, was stunned. The splendid banquet hall disappeared, and her vision became pitch black.

When her eyes adjusted to the darkness, she suddenly realized that what she was holding was not a human arm, but a bone.

Taking a closer look, this is no longer a lord's mansion. It is surrounded by ruins and ruins, a dilapidated scene.

At this time, Sigrid was stepping on countless white bones, which began to shatter at the slightest touch. The black hair on the ground flew up with the night wind and wrapped around Sigrid's face, making her

Hairy all over.

There were no nobles, no banquets, just seven or eight humanoid monsters made of vines.

Lulutis's tentacles pierced the "heart" of one of the monsters, but the monster showed no sign of falling. Instead, it stretched out a large number of green vines and wrapped them around Lulutis's tentacles, performing a reverse binding.

With the help of the surrounding monsters, Lulutis was tied up stronger and stronger, and the entire black mist was wrapped.

Sigrid punched one of the monsters, clearly making a huge hole, but with a flash of green light, the damaged part quickly healed.

"Physical attacks are ineffective, they are afraid of fire."

Sigrid was reminded and quickly took out a bottle of phosphorus powder. Thinking of Lulutis being tied up, she was a little worried about accidental injury.

"Throw it, my body is very strong!"

Without any further hesitation, the bottle was released.

One of the monsters had sharp hands and quick eyes, and whipped the bottle to pieces. The phosphorus powder flew away in the wind in an instant and adhered to every monster.

Just when Sigrid was about to detonate the phosphorus powder, there was a flash of fire, and the monsters gathered together burst into flames.

They desperately tried to escape to a well not far away, but Sigrid rushed forward first and knocked them to the ground at the risk of being burned.

Lulutis was out of trouble and her whole body was covered in smoke. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She took out a few bottles in her backpack, made some slight adjustments to the proportions, then rushed to the monster that was still struggling to death, and poured them down one by one.

.

"boom!"

The monsters that were still making pitiful screams completely lost their voices after a huge explosion, leaving only the tenacious vines waving gently.

Soon, as soon as the flames rolled up, these still moving vines were completely burned to ashes.

When Lu Yu arrived panting heavily, he looked at the blazing fire in front of him and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"How did the master find this place?" Sigrid was surprised and delighted.

"I also encountered the same monster as you. She seemed to want to lure me here, but her acting skills were so bad in the wilderness that I exposed her directly."

"After killing her, I saw a ruin at the foot of the mountain, and it seemed like something was moving, so I planned to come over and take a look."

Lulutis was afraid that these monsters would not be burned thoroughly and carefully enough, so when the fire was about to go out, she sprinkled some phosphorus powder to support the combustion.

"You also encountered the same monster, so you also saw the illusion they created. How did you see through it?"

Lu Yu smiled and told the other party what had made him self-defeating.

"It's much simpler here. From the very beginning, when the cavalry took me to see the place where we dispersed, I knew there was something wrong."

"Based on what I know about you, if you get separated from us in the wild, your first reaction is to squat down and wait. If you really can't wait, then take the next step."

"And during this waiting period, you will definitely be able to eat. But the backpack containing dry food is on Sigrid. You only have some wolf meat that you caught before. If you want to eat, you must make a fire. If you make a fire, you will definitely leave it behind."

There are no traces, but I walked around the scene and saw no trace of you lighting a fire at all."

"I don't believe you are so nervous that you can't eat because we got lost. You only have the strength to do things when you are full. This is what you said."

Good guy, being delicious has become a key detail for Lulutis to crack the illusion.

And what she said was indeed true. She did light a fire and eat wolf meat while waiting, and she indeed chose to stay where she was and wait.

I am too familiar with my own style of doing things...

"Of course, those just made me suspicious. After that, I asked Sigrid to test them twice in a row. Once, I told them that I was a servant and had been a slave. The second time, I even stated that I was because of my relationship with a noble.

Those who cheated were beaten into slavery."

"They actually acted like they didn't care."

Lulutis said in surprise: "It can only be said that the hallucinations fabricated by these monsters in the wilderness are completely divorced from reality. If you want to say that there are good and well-meaning nobles who allow slaves to participate in the banquet, I believe it.

"

"But during the entire banquet, not a single noble expressed any objection, and he personally brought food to a servant as a noble. Who are you kidding?"

When it comes to nobles, no one here knows it better than Lulutis.

Why does Lu Yu think that the illusion created by the monsters on Lulutis' side is very weak?

The Daphne I met only lost one detail. If it were an ordinary person, it would be a complete dead end.

How can you catch so many prey with such poor details?

Lu Yu looked at the piles of bones at his feet, confused.

"Lulu, what kind of monster is this? When did we start to be attacked by it?"

As Lu Yu asked this question, the three people quickly compared their hallucination experiences.

The cavalry touched in the fog last night appeared next to Lulutis, and the adventurer appeared next to Lu Yu.

Could it be that they were hallucinating when they peeked out of the cave?

But, how did the monster let himself enter the hallucination?

pollen?

While the three of them were thinking hard, a giant dragon landed not far from the ruins.

However, Lu Yu and the other three continued to talk as if they couldn't see him.

The giant dragon was approaching step by step. He glanced at Lu Yu and the others, and then at the ruins.

The white mist that was originally hanging on the transformed swing became aggrieved after discovering the dragon's arrival, and even transformed into a human face, hoping that the dragon would understand what he was thinking.

"Let them go," said the dragon.

"I didn't want to hurt them..." Bai Wu said aggrievedly in a voice that only the dragon could hear, "I just wanted to play with them..."

"Human life cannot bear our delay. You are still young and don't know how cruel this is."

"I just said goodbye to an old acquaintance. He worked hard all his life, but died on the road to self-breakthrough because of his longevity."

"Now, mist demon, let them go, or I will do it myself."
