Chapter 359 Gate of the Sacred Sun! Paper Knight’s epic enhancement!
The surprise of geniuses
The originally lifeless outer border area suddenly had an undercurrent due to Lu Yu's disturbance, and many big shots turned their attention to it.
Some are indifferent...some are disdainful...some are resentful...and some are playful...
No matter what, before the start of the Ten Thousand Races Arena, Lu Yu was the most popular and handsome boy in the Borderlands, bar none.
In fact, Lu Yu doesn't want to be so high-profile. What he likes most is to be the sixth person and take the lead at critical moments.
When he saw the [Evil Swamp] cult attack, and after confirming that the lives of the members of the Cangling Giants were not in danger, he was too lazy to take action, and even wanted to fish in troubled waters together to hide his whereabouts.
After all, a large number of rat clones infiltrated into the crowd as scouts in advance, obtained a large amount of information, and told Lu Yu that all individual adventurers entering and leaving the outside world had to pay 100,000 yuan as a ticket.
Even if you walk over and back again, you still have to pay.
If it is a caravan, you have to pay taxes according to different goods, and the proportion is not low.
This is the largest source of financial revenue for the Border Alliance. It is precisely because of the large share of the extraordinary people that the taxes of border residents are not high and the quality of life is guaranteed.
If it is the Dark Star Territory, although there will be no overt exploitation, all walks of life and many secret places in the city are monopolized by the Qunxing Family, and this part of the money will be directly divided into the cost of living.
Other large areas also have similar methods.
This is also the reason why guys who are not members of the Evil God Cult also want to fish in troubled waters. One smuggling operation can earn hundreds of thousands or even millions of profits, allowing them to buy more powerful pet beast cubs.
Lu Yu didn't have any objections to this. Someone had to gather the power of the group to build infrastructure. The prerequisite was that they didn't accept money and not do the work.
But... the news obtained by the rat clone mentioned that in addition to the dangerous secret realms in the Outland, there are also a bunch of hills set up by evil forces, such as the Lightless City, the Dark River, the Elemental Forest, etc., and they all have to take turns to draw money.
After adventurers enter by mistake, they have to be skinned. There are even powerful giants among them, who are unable to resist at all.
They have been able to exist for a long time not only because of their strength and fast running, but also because of their intertwined backgrounds. It is not all the support of the aliens on the opposite side of Dayuan, but also the gray industrial chain created by some guys within the alliance.
There are bad people everywhere. This is human nature. Even in a fairy tale world, not everyone is a good person.
Lu Yu will not deny the efforts of most people just because some people are bad.
But he couldn't bear it... These guys even wanted to make money from a good person like himself. They were really beasts and cannot be tolerated by God.
It is possible to fight all the way, but there is a high probability that you will encounter some resistance from within, and it is easy to be hacked and held back.
Instead of wasting time fighting with them and doing all kinds of dirty things, Lu Yu chose to just flip the table.
These caravans thought they had paid protection fees, but in fact, they were kidnapped by Lu Yu and used as hostages. The safety of a large number of important chamber of commerce convoys was used to attract the attention of the alliance and make some giant rats dare not move.
By the way, I saved 100,000 yuan on tickets!
Moreover, these people have to thank him for being sold!
"A bunch of people who are just eating corpses..." Lu Yu sat on Red Rabbit's back and reprimanded righteously.
Shushu next to him said: "When we become stronger, we will also come to Lishantou and ask them to pay the protection fee."
"What are you talking about? We are not villains. We just provide security services to others and get a little reward. This falls under the security labor remuneration regulations." Lu Yu corrected Shushu. For the same thing, legality is very important.
Shushu was deep in thought when he was suddenly awakened.
According to this, I can also find a way to provide special services to the rat clone, and then get my salary back, forming a perfect closed loop.
In this way, wouldn’t the Rat Bank economic crisis be solved?
Still profitable!
"Xiuren is indeed my good teacher!"
As Lu Yu became more famous, the number of chamber of commerce convoys behind Lu Yu continued to increase. The convoys waded across the plains, crossed the hills, and crossed the rivers.
At the beginning, you can encounter many stupid people who are dying. Later, you can see only a few alien races and monsters, and they start to run away after being separated by hundreds of miles.
Several of the evil forces that had set up on the mountain had already disappeared, leaving Lu Yu no chance to make a fortune!
"pity!"
Lu Yu regretted that the Dust Walker's Staff had only collected 10,000 souls in total, leaving a gap of 40,000. He could only wait until the war started before looking for opportunities.
As for breaking through these secret realms to collect souls?
Not to mention that the alliance is not a nanny and cannot always tell the truth, not to mention that these places are actually part of the border battlefield.
The border battlefield that most people know is in the open field next to the Great Abyss. People on both sides charged and then slashed wildly, with blood and flesh flying everywhere like a meat grinder.
Whose soldier is not a human being? Seeing the flesh and blood flying everywhere and the bones lying on the ground, half of the morale is destroyed.
Although there are real border battlefields where there are charging battles, they belong to the edge of the great abyss after a large-scale war.
In addition, foreign races and followers of the Mechanic God are hiding in the endless secret realm. With the advantage of racial talent, they will use the forests, mountain peaks, and the ground as bunkers. There are also powerful monsters that sneak into the secret realm, steal the sky and change the weather, and tame the servants of the secret realm.
Be available as an internal response at any time.
The human race will also carry out encirclement and ambushes, and learn ways to lurk across the Great Abyss. Various tactics collide, and different conspiracy methods appear frequently.
The fight is about being cunning and unexpected.
This is not alarmist, because Lu Yu's Eye of Truth has already seen many seemingly ordinary secret realms hiding human or alien armies, a large number of strong men ambushing them, and laying various traps.
For example, a sip of water you drink in the wild may be the transformation of a certain water-attribute alien, and then pierce out of your body, attack your teammates, and cause the team to be wiped out.
The white dandelions flying in the air may all come from the seeds of the "blood-sucking dandelion". Once they come into contact with the skin, they will instantly absorb life and flesh and take root, growing more descendants.
The first step into the borderlands will always face challenges.
The world is a battlefield!
And they have almost used all the good things in the secret realm, and they still have to face a lot of strong people, and they may even have a lot of hidden cards.
Efforts and rewards are not proportional.
Although they are unable to attack, the existence of these people is to tell customers how dangerous it is outside, to make them feel that they are getting value for money, and to strengthen the reputation of the good people in mainland China.
Moreover, the inside of the secret realm is dangerous, but the outside can scrape the ground three feet away and sweep away everything of even slight value.
Wherever you go, the land is different and the people are different!
Many forces observing secretly also had their mouths twitching.
This guy... is so poor that he is crazy!
But Lu Yu is not without his worries, and there are even more. For example, he often has to reject a large number of offers sent by the chamber of commerce, and wants to welcome his six or seven cent beauties.
“It’s so difficult to go from luxury to simplicity!”
After driving them away, Lu Yu sighed, it was really not hypocritical, it was all the saint's fault for keeping her appetite.
I'll send a message later, asking her where she is in the outer realm?
Just in time for her to approve him to send away the sins accumulated during this period, pray devoutly, and implement the core teachings of the Church of Thorns.
As time went by, the sun set in the west, but Lu Yu did not see the night falling. Instead, the sky became more and more shining, as if it was noon.
Such an abnormal celestial phenomenon also surprised him. After ensuring that the convoy behind him was sent to a safe area, he parted ways with them and exchanged the 30 million he had just earned for the necessary materials.
This time, most of them are materials needed for the development of slave beast civilization.
After that, Lu Yu set off alone. Without the fuel bottle, his speed increased several times, and he arrived at the location of the Ten Thousand Races Arena in half an hour.
However, the scene that caught his eye made Lu Yu's pupils tremble slightly.
"This is……"
What appeared in front of him was a ring of brilliant golden sun light, with a diameter of one hundred thousand meters, embedded in the void, spanning the world.
In the center, there is a sun core composed of triple flame wheels, from which nine spokes spread, bending at the end, stepping on the edge of the halo, looking like a wheel with precise structure, and also like...
Eyes that watch all things!
The edge of the bright halo is pierced by golden spikes. Of course, it may also be some special pattern describing the brilliance of the sun.
The light bloomed from it, dispelling all darkness and bringing warmth to all things.
"Hey!" Because the little spider's mind is constantly expanding, he can feel the heat and greatness of the ring of the sun in front of him better than the naked eye.
It has occupied its entire perspective, as if it were an ant near a fire. If it is not careful, it will be burned to ashes, and it deeply feels its own insignificance.
However, it is not afraid, just thinking...
How can I cut it off?
"This place is quite comfortable!" Shushu, who turned into a mobile phone pendant, showed a satisfied expression on his face. Although he has super-level shadow skills, he has always been afraid of the dark.
Prefer bright places!
Besides Dandan and Chitu feeling warm, the rest of their feelings were...
Can this thing be eaten?
Can it be completed by shimmering oil?
The one that has changed the most is undoubtedly the Paper Knight.
"The sacred bright day gave birth to my father..."
Under the sun's rays, a large number of golden lines appeared on the surface of the paper knight's armor. It raised its head and stared at the sun, and its eyes under the cross mask became increasingly dark.
boom!
The diurnal flames in the body are burning fiercely, and [Sun Protection] and [Glory Force Field] are turned on independently, operating to the extreme, and the battery life is greatly improved, increasing the overall combat power by one-seventh.
It’s an epic enhancement!
However, facing the gift of the power of the sun, it stretched out its armor-covered palm, held it gently, and swallowed the light in an instant, making the surrounding area instantly dark and out of place. It said indifferently:
"It's a pity that you are blocking my lord's way!"
It is so arrogant that it dares to challenge the sun for its master!
Seeing this scene, Lu Yu's eyes were filled with relief, but in order to prevent Paper Knight, a silly boy from being too upright, he reminded him: "If you don't take the free increase, you won't get it, so don't worry."
"Yes!" The paper knight nodded and had no objection.
Knightly Virtue has long said that being able to be used by it and please my lord is the other party's greatest honor.
"Relics of the sun..." Lu Yu thought silently in his heart, looking at the nine solar radiations that looked like long legs of living creatures, the memory of the forbidden sun emerged in his mind.
On the day of his awakening, he used his eyes of truth to see the nine suns constantly collapsing and stacking together, with countless "beasts" inhabiting the light and gnawing on something.
It was also that scene that caused him to be entangled by the forbidden curse seal. He has always regarded it as his biggest imaginary enemy, and he has always been thinking about it...
The sun has been like this since ancient times, but no one has discovered it?
Or is it the same as the original starry sky, a mutation caused later?
If so, then is the destruction of the sun ruins, which is suspected to be the ultimate secret of the border, also related to the forbidden sun?
Just as Lu Yu was thinking, a familiar voice came: "This thing is called the Gate of the Sacred Sun. This entrance to the ruins created by an ultra-ancient civilization actually contains the top gifts of the sun. Isn't it amazing?"
Lu Yu turned his head, and there was Luo Zisong in a black and white mandarin jacket. He had fair hair and a childish face, his hands were behind his back, and his smile was flat. After not seeing him for a long time, the little old man already had the demeanor of an outsider.
Because of his long years of spiritual accumulation, the balance ability of the Eternal Crane, coupled with his strong background and sufficient resources, he has been able to make great progress all the way without having to worry about spiritual indifference in front of the eternal blazing sun, and has successfully reached the peak of Huiyue!
It only takes one more step to embrace the legendary qualities and become a giant and strong man who overlooks the eternity.
And with his constant strength, he is still the best even among the giants.
"Principal, when did you come?" Lu Yu looked surprised.
"It arrived yesterday." Luo Zisong said with a smile. Looking at Lu Yu who was looking around with a puzzled expression, his heart tightened and his passive was triggered instantly, and he quickly said: "The Eternal Crane is not here, don't look for it."
This kid knows how to keep an eye on his birds!
I really can’t relax for a moment!
"All right……"
Lu Yu nodded regretfully. He originally wanted to help the paper knight ask about his experience in balancing the two extreme forces and prepare for the evolution of the secret food in advance.
But...why has the Eternal Crane been so mysterious recently?
If you don't wait until you ask the principal for the pet's contact information, you can just chat privately.
Lu Yu just wanted to speak, but was interrupted by a shrill shout:
"Sister, please, let me dig one more time, just once. I promise not to dig again next time. I feel like there are ants crawling on my body. I'm shaking all over. I can't breathe anymore. Please."
, just dig up the ruins for me..."
A girl with a high ponytail who was wearing the clothes of an archaeologist but still couldn't hide her proud figure was lying on the ground, hugging the plump thighs of a beautiful woman and pleading, and occasionally rubbing her cheeks against her.
This woman is none other than Luo Qingyue, Luo Yu’s senior, archaeologist and mythologist!
Lu Yu had a strange look in his eyes and teased: "Your granddaughter?"
"If you want it, I can give it to you!" Luo Zisong's face turned dark.
Luo Qingyue's existence could not shake his strength and status, but it made him lose face in the education world.
The beautiful woman looked at the shameless Luo Qingyue, feeling both angry and amused, and said speechlessly: "I also act according to the rules and regulations. Who told you to dig up the ruins of the sun last time and almost caused a disaster? Fortunately, we solved it.
, which resulted in no casualties.
In the end, your archaeological qualification certificate was revoked, which is already a very light punishment. If you continue to do this, you will really go to alliance prison."
Hearing this, Luo Qingyue said with a smile: "Teacher Cui, I didn't mean it, and if it weren't for me, how could this [Holy Sun Gate] appear so quickly.
After all, I am also a hero who has shed blood and sweat for the alliance. Please help me beg for mercy, as long as I continue to participate in the excavation, even if the merits and demerits are equal."
"Haha!" The beautiful woman sneered and said inhumanely: "No matter how much you say, it's useless. Without an archaeological qualification certificate, you can't excavate the ruins. This is a project that the Supreme Council is watching, and no one can use the back door.
, even the Luo family, the imperial capital behind you, doesn’t want to. If you really want to enter, you’d better find a way to get a spot in the Ten Thousand Races Arena Tournament.”
"..."
Luo Qingyue was at a loss for words. Although the ancient bookworm had evolved into the historian butterfly, he had also received resources from the Luo family in the imperial capital, and his strength had soared. He was promoted to the peak of Morning Star, and his overall combat power was no less than Huiyue level.
But if you want to compete with the top monsters of all races, you are still far behind.
unless……
Luo Qingyue felt heavy and let go of her hand in frustration. She turned her head and was about to stand up when she suddenly saw two familiar figures, preparing to slip away quietly.
She was stunned for a moment, then quickly shouted: "Teacher, my good assistant, the young master of the Imperial Clan, and the great demon king of the border, Lu Yu, is here. With him here, it will be easy to get a few places.
Next to me is my grandfather, he is not even 200 years old yet, he is still young and can participate in the Prodigy Battle, please give me a spot in advance."
With her shouting and the familiar name, many people turned their attention, focusing on Lu Yu and Luo Zisong.
Most of the other geniuses were curious about Lu Yu and wanted to take advantage of him.
But the geniuses at Imperial University have complicated expressions. They are obviously the same age as Lu Yu, but now they feel they are not in the same style.
While they were still working hard, Lu Yu killed the Weapon King Realm and bullied the alien geniuses who broke into the border. If the war at the border ruins hadn't started, they would still be in school when Lu Yu became a legend.
Li Yonglian huddled in the corner and did not dare to show his head, for fear that Lu Yu would ask him to call him uncle.
In this reality OL, they are playing in nightmare mode and Lu Yu is playing in easy mode.
unacceptable!
'This woman must be poisonous!'
These shameful titles didn't make any sense when watching the barrage at the time, but being read out in public made Lu Yu feel the fourth kind of death besides physical death, funeral, and being forgotten.
Social death!
"What a misfortune for our family!" Luo Zisong also felt numb and wanted to bury his granddaughter with a shovel.
Others hope that their children will become successful, but you, tnn, hope that your father will become a successful person.
It’s against Tiangang!
"calm!"
Lu Yu quickly realized that he should not panic at this moment, otherwise he would really be the butt of a joke, so he showed a calm expression and nodded slightly, as if he recognized Luo Qingyue's words.
So what if you're crazy?
As long as I am not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed!
"So crazy!"
Some geniuses who were ready to have fun discovered that Lu Yu had admitted everything calmly and was extremely arrogant, similar to his behavior along the way.
I’m really not afraid of being sniped by other monsters!
However, this Lu Yu is not as powerful as the rumors say. After looking around, except that he is handsome, has some strengths, has a cool pet beast, and is a bit stronger, the rest...
Rounding off, it’s 50-50 with them!
Many geniuses thought sourly.
"This Lu Yu is quite interesting." A handsome silver-haired young man looked at Miao Feng, the Holy Son of Plenty, who was about to fall asleep and had thick dark circles under his eyes. He deliberately said: "Miao Feng, this guy is here.
The last Harvest Celebration robbed you of the limelight. Now that you have advanced to Huiyue, why don’t you go and save some face for the Harvest Church?”
Although Miao Feng is lazy, his talent is beyond words!
"Face is given by oneself, not taken by others." Miao Feng yawned and said sleepily: "Not to mention that it is not my turn to fight for face in the Church of Fertility. What's more, if someone helps me work, I
It’s too late to thank him, wouldn’t it be nice to lie down?”
If the high priest hadn't threatened Miao Feng to throw away all his collection of game cards if he didn't come to the Ten Thousand Races Arena, he wouldn't have wanted to come.
After all, it was already a weekend, and it didn't matter if he didn't take a vacation for a week. Now he had to work extra overtime, which made Miao Feng's resentment soaring, and he could already support several evil gods.
Now that his eldest father is helping him in the ring, it's too late for him to be happy, so how can he cause trouble?
The silver-haired young man said speechlessly: "As the Holy Son of the Church of Abundance, are you really embarrassed to be so lazy?"
Miao Feng asked: "Is the alliance rich now?"
Seeing the silver-haired young man nodding, he said confidently: "If we are not lazy, doesn't it prove that the alliance is still in a barren state and needs to struggle. The more we lie down, the more it proves that the alliance is developing well. There is nothing wrong with enjoying it, right?"
Good...that makes sense!
The silver-haired young man was stunned for a moment and fell into deep thought.
Next to her, the Saint of Fertility, Chu Qingluan, rolled her eyes and was too lazy to care about these two people. In comparison, Lu Yu was more interesting.
So many great things have been done in a short period of time.
It's a pity that this man is too vigilant and doesn't give him a chance to contact him at all.
Is it because I am not attractive enough?
As the saying goes, if you want to be pretty, be filial.
You can't sacrifice the Holy Son and become a widow to arouse Lu Yu's interest, right?
Chu Qingluan thought about this problem seriously.
But... Miao Feng is just a colleague, can he get a buff bonus?
When Cui Han, known as Teacher Cui, heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Lu Yu, smiled, and said: "Secret Realm... God of War Lu Yu, right? I've heard of you, and I'm looking forward to your performance this time."
When it comes to conquering the secret realm, Lu Yu ranks second, and no one dares to claim the first place. What's more, the laws of the ancient kings on his body are also suspected to be related to this secret realm.
Therefore, even if Lu Yu is not strong enough, the alliance will give him a spot.
But now it seems that even if Lu Yu cannot enter the forefront of the Ten Thousand Races Competition, it is not difficult to get a spot.
Lu Yu responded with a smile and was polite.
Cui Han glanced at Luo Qingyue. She was also a young man, but there was such a big gap. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and she said directly: "Since you said there is someone to help, let's use their quota to come in."
I originally wanted to give it a chance, but now it saves me the trouble.
"Ah, Teacher Cui, I..."
Luo Qingyue was dumbfounded and wanted to speak, but Cui Han didn't give her this chance. Countless silver space patterns shone in her pupils, and her figure merged into the void and disappeared.
The little spider looked surprised. It didn't even feel the fluctuations in space, and the other party had disappeared.
I really want to learn!
(o゜▽゜)o☆
"Those eyes... are legendary!" Lu Yu was surprised. This was the second timeless giant in the space system that he had seen besides the principal.
At this time, Luo Qingyue also got up from the ground, looked at Lu Yu, and showed a flattering smile, "Junior..."
"Senior Luo, I'm sorry..." Lu Yu, who had no advantage and couldn't afford to go early, decisively refused, and then heard her say: "Well, I understand the rules. My grandfather's small treasury belongs to you, buy a place."
"Hmm...huh??" Luo Zisong, who was preparing to watch the show, suddenly realized that he had been bombarded with gold coins. He was about to speak to stop it, but saw his granddaughter's lip shape change and she said four words, which silenced him for an instant.
Love fund!
He boasted in Haikou before that as long as Luo Qingyue could win over Lu Yu and become one of his own, all his private money could be used as a love fund.
But now, it has become a sharp sword stabbing him.
It hurts, it hurts so much!
Seeing Luo Zisong's distorted expression, Lu Yu knew something and said with a confused look on his face: "This is not good..."
"This is the number!" Luo Qingyue still didn't understand that this bitch man thought he had too little money, so he stretched out his hand and spread his five green-white fingers.
Lu Yu understood, it was not five million, but fifty million.
He smiled and said, "Deal!"
The two hit it off immediately,
Only Lao Deng's injured world was born.

PS: It’s a big chapter of 6,400 words. I asked for a monthly ticket at the end of the month. I traveled on the highway for a long time, but luckily I got out in the last few minutes.
