Chapter 295 294 The Dragon Car Is Coming!

Chapter 295 294. The dragon car is coming!

Judith and her friends planted grains in the few flat open areas in the forest. Now it is the harvest season, and Waller and Valen are rushing to harvest.

Lu Yu was surprised that the white wolf was so intimidating. These grains scattered all over the forest were not visited by herbivorous monsters and animals from planting to maturity. Those annoying birds even retracted their sharp beaks?

Judith explained: "We have reached some agreements with the monsters nearby. The white wolf does not attack them, and they help us guard the crops, and share some of the stored dried meat with them on the harvest day every year for the winter."

Judith and her friends who hid in the forest to avoid disaster observed the food prices of several nearby city-states after the war broke out, and they were deeply disturbed. Although they purchased a lot of grains in advance and made "bread" that could be used as weapons, they were forced to examine the current environment and take the initiative to make some changes.

Although the monsters did not speak the same language as Judith, simple body language communication allowed these guys with basic intelligence to understand Judith and the White Wolf's requirements.

As the most powerful monster in this forest, it was a magical thing that the White Wolf was willing to cooperate with them, who were at the lower level, and it could also get some benefits, so why not?

So over the past year or so, there was almost no friction between the monsters in this area and Judith and her group, and there was even a wonderful scene of alternating to guard the crops.

The White Wolf turned his head away and snorted heavily.

Judith said helplessly: "For more than a year, the White Wolf could not hunt nearby, so he had to go to a farther place..."

Lu Yu smiled knowingly.

Judith and Olga's residence was in the big tree hole. This first stop that Lu Yu came from had been transformed by two girls and became more suitable for living. Beds, shelves for placing goods, and toiletries were all available.

Valen and Waller, two tough guys, built a simple wooden house not far away. They pulled Lu Yu to the wooden house, pushed aside the leaves and dead branches on the ground, and revealed a hidden secret door.

Entering the underground and lighting the torch, Lu Yu was surprised.

"So many slimes!" Xu Yu excitedly rushed to the fences, his eyes shining.

Lu Yu counted them carefully and found that there were more than 40 slimes in the basement. According to the magical aura they exuded, they were definitely jungle slimes.

These slimes jumped to the fences when they saw the light, and jumped up one after another, as if to say hello to them. Their crystal clear bodies reflected the charming light, rendering the small basement very dreamy.

"This is..." Lu Yu pointed at the slime.

"It's our slime ranch. We captured some young slimes from the jungle, kept them in the basement, screened them, and kept the most docile ones. As long as we provide enough food, these slimes can spit out grass liquid for us to take, which can greatly alleviate the problem of not being able to eat fresh green plants in the long winter, and can also free up our existing arable land to focus on growing grains."

"Recently, I've been studying how to make slimes spit out juices of different flavors... I've made some attempts, but none of them worked. It's a pity for the materials that were fed... Forget it, it's not a pity, just treat it as a snack for them."

Waller walked to a green and round slime with a wooden cup and patted his head. Like a conditioned reflex, the slime brewed for a while and spit out half a cup of green liquid into the wooden cup.

Lu Yu shook the cup and fanned it with his hand to his nose with the rigor of chemistry class. The smell was not irritating, but very light. He sniffed hard close to the cup and could actually smell a little fresh fragrance, which was really strange.

Lu Yu shook it again. The liquid was not viscous, just like water. There was no turbidity floating, and it was relatively clear.

Valen and Waller saw that Lu Yu was so cautious. Just as they were about to say something, Lu Yu took the cup and drank it.

Lu Yu smacked his lips and scraped his tongue against his mouth carefully: "The taste is quite unique... It's similar to spinach juice, but it's more acceptable to me than spinach juice. It's very soft, with a little grass and earthy smell, but not too irritating. The important thing is that there is no bitter taste."

As long as you can overcome this thing and go through the slime's body, it feels pretty good.

After arriving in Mela, Lu Yu hadn't learned about the slime ranch in detail. He didn't expect to see it when he returned to Yas this time.

Xu Yu took the cup and followed suit, finding a fat slime and patting it. The slime really spit out a cup of juice obediently to her. Maybe it was because of Lu Yu's taste, Xu Yu also felt good after drinking it, and with a sly smile, he pulled a few slimes in front of him and patted their heads one by one.

"Xu Yu, stop making trouble. Slimes also need to rest. They can't produce you infinitely."

"Oh."

Xu Yu clenched his fists and blushed when he returned to Lu Yu.

It's like this again. Afterwards, I found that my behavior was a bit shameful... Can't I change it?

Lu Yu asked curiously: "Does Yas have books about Slime Ranch?"

"No."

"Then how did you come up with this idea?"

Olga said: "We are all poor. If we could have our own land and enough food to eat, we wouldn't work hard as adventurers... In order to save money, we often try some fresh food on the way to take commissions... With some careful observation and accidental discoveries, we got this inspiration..."

In addition to Slime Ranch, Waller also brewed wine.

In another cellar, the sour smell of low-quality wine made Lu Yu sick for a second, but the four people who were used to drinking this kind of wine enjoyed it. Waller took out a glass and invited Lu Yu to drink it.

"Why don't you try it? We are not boasting. These wines are hard currency. Every time we trade with city-state smugglers, this is the best seller. In some city-states where barter is the only option, if you want to buy food, you must use wine. Come and change.”

Lu Yu backed away repeatedly, saying awkwardly that he was not very good at drinking...

"Really, that's such a pity." Olga took it and drank it all in one gulp. She looked very gentle and was full of pride at this moment. After finishing the drink, she smacked her mouth with unfinished content, which made Lu Yu's eyes widen. .

The last thing the group of four visited was the granary.

In order to prevent moisture, the granary was specially built in an open area where sunlight can reach it, and the white wolf also specially guarded it nearby.

In the large wooden house, harvested grains that have not yet been ground, ground grain powders, prepared meat jerky, and hard French-style long-handled weapons are stored in different areas.

Lu Yu picked up a "loaf" of bread, flicked it with his fingers, received a dull response, and smashed it hard against the wall nearby... but it didn't deform?

Seeing some pine cones and walnuts stored in a bamboo basket nearby, Lu Yu took out one and knocked it on without hesitation, and then...he ate the chopped walnuts happily.

"Is it delicious?" Lu Yu asked.

"It's delicious," said Judith.

Olga said: "It's ten times better than what we ate during our previous adventures... Of course, it's still not as good as the fluffy bread made from fresh grains. Unfortunately, we only eat it during the winter every year. It's too luxurious..."

At this time, Olga suddenly asked: "I forgot to ask, why did you come back suddenly, where is the servant who was with you?"

Lu Yu put down the bread and said, "Go back to the tree hole. I happen to have something to tell you."

Outside the tree hole, Xu Mo held a branch with leaves and kept tickling the white wolf's nose. The white wolf turned his face indifferently, ignored Xu Mo, and lay on the ground like a big dog, listening. Everything in the cave.

"I have my own territory and need some manpower. Are you willing to come?"

Lu Yu's straight-to-the-point statement made everyone stunned for a few seconds. Olga asked tentatively: "Territory...Which region have you been canonized by the emperor, or have you already found your hometown?"

"My hometown is too far away and I don't want to go back. Now I hope to live a stable life with a few important people."

Waller asked curiously: "You haven't told us where you went after you left. Where is your territory now?"

"Meera."

This unfamiliar name made everyone here look at each other, so Lu Yu briefly talked about what he saw and heard after leaving Yas.

No one could have imagined that Lu Yu, who set out from Yas two years ago, would experience so many things.

Compared with the barren Yas, the richness of Mela in Lu Yu's mouth made everyone dizzy. The gold-level Goblin King that Yas once feared could only be regarded as a monster with some strength in Mela.

The inheritance and accumulation of knowledge determine the upper limit of what magicians in a region can touch.

"Is the territory very big?" Judith swallowed.

"It's very big. The entire mountain range and the surrounding area will be my territory."

"Such a large area, if you don't have enough power to defend it, it will be coveted by others, right?"

Lu Yu smiled slightly: "That's true. My territory may encounter a lot of trouble in the near future, so, will you come?"

"That goes without saying." Judith stood up without hesitation, "You have land to farm and food to eat, so why not go? It's dangerous. Isn't it dangerous to fight monsters for a few copper coins before?"

Olga also applauded and said: "If it weren't for you, we would still be worrying about a few silver coins. We wouldn't even be able to grind and maintain weapons or purchase equipment. And it was you who gave us the news, so the four of us were able to avoid the war. Live comfortably here.”

Waller said: "I have no objection. In fact, we have always thought that you are the incarnation of the god of luck, and good things should happen with you... But, can our food be moved away?"

Varun touched his head: "I don't have any objection, but I want to take away the slimes... Is it impossible to take them with me since it's such a long distance from Mera?"

Lu Yu thought for a while: "You can directly exchange the food into equivalent items. To put it bluntly... those breads that are so hard that they can break walnuts and grains with a slight musty smell, some of the people I raised in my territory have eaten them. I won’t eat it. As for the slime, you can take it all with you.”

Although they didn’t know how Lu Yu planned to do it, everyone still got up early after a night’s rest and quickly sorted out the necessary items. Judith and Olga carried food and went to the city-state again. trip.

While drawing the magic circle on the ground, the white wolf came over and bit Lu Yu's clothes.

Lu Yu, who was about to send a message, was staggered and had to follow Bai Lang to the tree hole to see what he wanted to do.

The white wolf stretched out his paw and pointed at the mark left by Lu Yu and Lulu. He kept making whining sounds and his eyes were full of anxiety.

Lu Yu, who had not communicated with Bai Lang much after coming back, immediately understood: "Lulu is very good. You can see her when you go over there, but... you may not recognize her."

"Oh, by the way, you may have a big companion in the future. He is relatively stupid. You may need to take care of him more. After all, we are usually busy and cannot stay with him all the time."

Seeing Bai Lang let out a long sigh of relief, Lu Yu rubbed his face and said, "Lulu is refining the transformation potion now. If it succeeds, maybe you can have a new body."

Hearing this, Bai Lang tilted his head in confusion, seemingly unable to fully understand the function of the transformation potion.

After all preparations were completed, the four of them curiously followed Lu Yu's gaze and looked up at the sky.

The weather was very good, cloudless, and the blue sky seemed to be touchable.

Just when everyone was wondering why they couldn't see anything, a black shadow appeared in the distance. At first it was only the size of a grain of rice, then it got bigger and bigger, occupying everyone's field of vision in the blink of an eye.

It covers the sky and the sun, like a mountain.

Huogu landed heavily, and a large number of trees fell down under the destruction of his wings. The animals fled in fear, and the monsters trembled into the cave, not daring to leak any breath.

The people under Huogu were sweating profusely and their bodies were stiff. Their hearts almost stopped beating when Huogu landed.

"Only four?"

The eloquent Hogu woke up Judith and the others. They raised their heads little by little, and their four little chickens were reflected in their golden vertical pupils...

"You made too much noise when you landed, which scared them all." Lu Yu complained.

"Too cowardly is as useless as a stupid dragon." Huo Gu snorted coldly.

Olga took courage: "We are not timid, but we have never seen such a shocking scene... You remind me of the evil in the bard's story..."

Warren and Waller covered Olga's mouth.

Hogu lowered his head and stared at Olga.

"Interesting, I like humans to call me dragon, so that they will be afraid of me and stay away from me."

"My name is Huo Gu, which means the one who brings disaster in a certain area. We will meet often in the future, so remember it well."

The four of them nodded.

Lu Yu broke the news and said, "Don't be too formal. Huo Gu is a very good dragon, but his way of expression is a bit...weird. In short, you will know in the future. Come on, get in the car."

Realizing that the car Lu Yu was talking about was Huo Gu, and seeing Huo Gu lying on the ground little by little, using his wings to form a ladder, the foursome became a little stunned.

What kind of territory do you want to work in?

There will be more later
