Chapter 296 295 Concept of Slime Ranch
Chapter 296 295. The idea of Slime Ranch
The plan couldn't keep up with the changes, so the four of them worked together. This was what Lu Yu gained after returning to the original place for nearly a month.
The cute little mushrooms chose to reshape themselves, turned into mycelium, and fell into a deep sleep. The next time they wake up will be when their evolution is complete.
Heather from the Grand Empire could feel the power of Meira and the integrity of her magic inheritance from Lu Yu's words, but at this moment she was still worried.
"Maybe I will go there in the future." This was Heather's hesitant answer.
Lu Yu talked a lot when he reunited with Thoresen's Aesop, and hinted that he wanted to prepare for the "changes" that were coming.
Aesop, who seemed to have grown up a lot, hugged Lu Yu and said that he would remember everything he said and looked forward to meeting him again next time.
The wind is free, the heart is free, and so are the bards and adventurers. In this world full of mystery and magic, bards are always popular, and adventurers are always admired by the aristocratic young masters and eldest ladies who live within the high walls. They think that holding a long sword and using magic can hold their heads high with a smile. Walk through this world with your chest held high.
However, the reality is always very skinny. There are very few people who can go out and go far. The deeds of those who are successful cannot be imitated, so people will always surround each bard and listen to the legends from afar. , poetry and stories.
There is a giant dragon in the distance. The dragon is entrenched on the top of the mountain. The dragon slayer holds a sword and bathes in the anger spewed by the dragon to kill it.
There are treasures in the distance, either hidden in the mountains or under the blue waves. Shining gold coins pile up into mountains. Unspeakable treasures flood the adventurers' feet. The brave adventurers become rich overnight.
There is love in the distance. A beautiful and graceful girl is washing in the stream. Her long wet hair is suddenly thrown up. A series of water droplets sway and flicker under the sunlight. The girl's clothes soaked by the stream are close to her skin. Those white and plump beauty It's so looming that it's hard to take your eyes away.
In the bard's story, it seems that all the good things are far away, hidden in the vast unknown that no one has ever set foot on.
But for most people, moving forward not only requires courage, but also requires letting go of all the fetters and worries.
Not everyone is like a duckweed with no roots and no worries. Traveling or settling in distant places is a luxury for them.
"Tired of care, life is full of changes." Huo Gu, who relies on sleep to avoid decay, commented.
Perhaps because of being with Lulu for a long time, Lu Yu's thoughts were a little biased. When he thought of the rootless duckweed, he subconsciously murmured: "Leaving home is like a rootless duckweed... Then if the home follows people If we go together, everything will be fine?"
Lulu's simple, violent and detached way of thinking has been passed down to her.
"Why do you follow people around?" Huo Gu couldn't keep up with Lu Yu's train of thought, so he could only ask questions from his soul.
"Floating City?"
There are too few functions that the magic of this era can achieve, but what about the next era?
Since Segro said that there will be earth-shaking changes in the next era, with unprecedented changes in magic power and space transfer approaching stability, will magic that can float cities into the air also appear?
In order not to let Solon, the Theocracy and Broken Gold City discover the existence of Hogu so early, the route back to Mera was carefully planned by Sera. Under the cover of night, Hogu arrived at the designated location of the Red Flame Mountains without disturbing too many people. Place.
The mist demon flew over quickly, but slowed down as it approached. She turned into Sera with a casual and unconcerned look on her face. She held her hands and glanced up from time to time. The first thing he said after seeing Huo Gu was, "It's so slow, why did you come back so late?"
Huogu said nothing and waited until Judith and others unloaded all the goods before controlling the magic power to catch the fog demon to him.
"Bullying people, bullying people again!" The fog demon struggled to transform, but it couldn't escape Huo Gu's control.
"Well, the magic power has improved a little. It is indeed right to leave my side. Unfortunately, the mouth has not changed." Huo Gu nodded with satisfaction.
"It won't change, it won't change!" The children of the Mist Demon have a serious tendency to be vindictive, and I don't know who will miss Huo Gu from time to time during the journey.
Lulu found out that there were only four Judiths and asked Lu Yu suspiciously. Lu Yu had no choice but to tell her about the little mushrooms.
"Let's just have four people... Anyway, there's still some time until spring, so we can always come up with some good ideas during this time."
After saying that, Lulu briefly greeted Judith and the other four people one by one.
Judith and others looked confused, as did Bai Lang. He subconsciously backed away the moment Lulu wanted to rush over and hug him.
Lulu, who was also confused, was pulled to her side by Lu Yu: "Let me introduce you again, Lulutis, a seventh-level magician, nicknamed the Crimson Witch. In fact, everyone has met her and still remembers the one next to me. Floating briquettes?”
"That briquette is you?" Warren and Waller exclaimed.
"Seventh level magician!" As magicians, Judith and Olga obviously have different concerns.
"It was indeed me. Some unexpected circumstances that were inconvenient to reveal happened at that time, so it became a bit... strange." Lulu said with a smile, turned around and hugged the white wolf's head, "Why, I was scared, I really don't know you. Me?"
Bai Lang tried hard to connect the little dot Lulu in front of him with the coal briquettes before...the smell and appearance were completely different, and it was too unfamiliar. However, seeing Lu Yu nodding towards him very confidently, Bai Lang obeyed and let Lulu go. Shame on you.
Judith walked to Lu Yu excitedly and anxiously: "The seventh level, is it the seventh level as I understand it?"
"Although there may be some moisture, it is indeed the seventh level. There is no need to be surprised, um... Sera!"
Hearing Lu Yu's shout, Sera, who was checking the slime in the bamboo basket, stood up.
Lu Yu introduced: "This is Sera, a sixth-level magician, but he can defeat a seventh-level magician."
Huo Gu lowered his head with interest: "You are Sera, I heard Lulu talk about you."
This sentence made Sera's heart burst with excitement: "Big Dragon Huo Gu, I also heard that Lu Yu and Lulu talked about you, the wise man who escaped from decay and slept in the barren land."
"I'm not a wise man, I've just seen too many things."
"You also know the specific situation. We can't reveal too much information yet, so you still need to leave Mera temporarily and go to a nearby island to wait for the magic power to rise."
Like a child who was angry with his old father, the fog demon heard that Huo Gu was about to leave again. He raised his head with a look of reluctance, happened to meet Huo Gu's gaze, and turned his head in a panic.
Like a gentleman, Huo Gu slowly lowered his head to everyone: "Well, everyone, I will take my leave for now. When the magic power rises, I will return to the Red Flame Mountains. Ms. Serra..."
"I will arrange your dragon's nest properly for you. No one can stop you from realizing the new power brought by the magic of the next era in your sleep. I am also looking forward to what kind of power you will gain in the endless dream."
Huo Gu spread his wings and flew away again.
It sounds unbelievable to build a decent mansion in a month, but if it is a magician, it is very reasonable.
Lulu perfectly restored the mansion that had been razed to the ground by the explosion as a temporary residence. The construction of the house she planned with Sera has also begun. There are all kinds of earth, wood and stone nearby, which is really a big help.
After some inquiries, Sera was very satisfied with the abilities of the four of them, especially in the field of planting. They all had rich experience in the field of cultivation. However, their self-recommendations for grain milling and production were declined by Sera, which was very difficult. Obviously the food they make cannot satisfy everyone's stomach, and no one here will eat dry, hard polearms that can crush walnuts.
Slime Ranch was the focus of Sera's inquiry, and Lulu was also very interested in it. When she learned that they had successfully obtained the juice spit out by slimes without any experience, Sera smiled.
"I will find someone to read books on slime cultivation to you, and I will also find you some better slime larvae. I will leave this pasture to you."
After the four of them were taken down to rest by Sigrid, Lu Yu asked, "You seem to care about Slime Ranch very much."
"The slimes you brought back are too weak to show the effectiveness of the juice." Sera said, "Lu Yu, do you still remember the characteristics of the slime family?"
"Although he is low-intelligent, he is naturally friendly to magic. He can adapt to various complex environments and fuse with specific elements to create special forms."
Serra said: "The place where the Slime King was born will have an elemental lake. The elemental essence in the elemental lake is a magician's favorite, because after taking it, it can increase one's affinity for specific elements, and the power of elemental magic will also be temporarily enhanced. "
"What does this have to do with Slime Ranch?"
"When the magic wave arrives, slimes must be the first to sense and change accordingly. The juice they spit out will naturally carry weak elemental power. This is one. Second, slimes are used to stably ferment specific The sap is something the merchants of Sligo are struggling with, and the four men you brought back have thought of it too. , why not let them try it, maybe one day we can drink magic drinks with different flavors. Third... The selected slimes are very docile and clingy, making these territorial and acknowledging history. Lime has built an early warning and basic defense system for us to defend against enemies, which can effectively reduce manpower requirements. "
It should be said that he is worthy of being the chosen one of the Theocracy trained by Laurend. He has been very thoughtful.
In fact, Lu Yu has always had a question that he wanted to ask but never asked - is Serra the most suitable candidate for the next pope in Laurende's mind? After all, Laurende and Serra are similar in many ways.
"Lulu and I discussed it while you were not at home. She and I both agreed that we don't need too many people in the territory. When the magic wave comes, we must have trustworthy people around us. Excluding the magic wave factor, this is our future home. , too many irrelevant people will change the flavor.”
Lu Yu pondered for a moment: "I basically agree with your decision, but I suggest that the rules should not be too rigid, and do not say it directly, so as not to make it difficult to change in the future. Time is long, there are too many variables, and no one knows what we will face in the future. What, isn’t it?”
Lu Yu knew that Sera was taking care of Lulu. After all, having been stabbed in the back before, it was difficult for Lulu to accept being hurt by someone she trusted. In Lulu’s understanding, anyone who could enter this territory would Someone you can trust.
However, such a large territory must require a certain amount of manpower to solve the initial self-sufficiency problem. The era of relying on dolls to maintain operations has not yet come, so this rule must be flexible enough.
"It is feasible to raise basic monsters to replace part of the manpower."
"It is feasible to strictly screen people entering the territory and check their household registration."
"In the future, it is feasible to use magic to replace manpower to ensure the security and independence of the territory to the greatest extent."
Lulu immediately wrote down the three feasible options in the booklet - she imitated Lu Yu's summoning manual and began to record the daily life of the territory for easy review, and these three options were the initial content of the booklet.
Sera said naturally: "In the next era, your summons may be able to further solve the problem of insufficient manpower."
Lu Yu held up the summoning manual: "I will try my best. Also, don't look for me if there is nothing important in the near future. I haven't completed some content for a long time, and the previous summoning container has also stagnated."
Lulu stopped Lu Yu.
"There is really a big thing that needs you to solve."
"What?"
"Dominant blood race."
Lu Yu's eyes condensed.
Sera turned into the room and took out a small blood race wing and threw it to Lu Yu.
"We fought and killed a few people. They were allowed to take the bodies, but I cut off my wings as a warning." Sera said, "They were very dissatisfied with our move in. They called us human bastards from Broken Gold City and threatened Lulu... Sorry, I couldn't help it."
Lu Yu asked: "Is it difficult to deal with?"
"Our home is here, and they have thousands of times more people than us. What do you think?"
Sera asked back, and after a while, she continued.
"They will not sit back and watch us build a new mansion, nor will they allow us to leisurely reclaim wasteland and plant crops. The giants and elves, both races, were driven out of the Red Flame Mountains by them, leaving only the remnants who were reluctant to leave their homeland and could not bear to breathe. This place is big enough, and the dominant species still killed these two races. I don't think they will accept us in a friendly manner. There is no room for negotiation, it's just a matter of life and death."
"I will contact those elves who are being persecuted by the blood race and are about to be wiped out, and then use the country's We can select some worth cultivating and bring them back to brainwash them. As for the rest, we can cooperate with them a little after we deal with the blood clan. "
After returning home, Xu Yu, who had been eating, suddenly felt that someone was looking at him. When he turned around, he met three pairs of eyes...
Xu Yu, who was eating barbecue, was confused: "Why...what's wrong, you want to eat too?"
"Xu Yu is the biggest confidence for us to settle here. Let's hide for a while. If the superior species comes to attack, Lulu and I will deal with it first and lure their king to show up...Catch the thief first! "
