Chapter 306 305. Poisonous Advice
The first impression largely determines a person's view of a person. The preconceived impression is so deep-rooted that he can ignore some details that can be learned by asking a little.
For example, Benlong has left the courtyard twice and took animals away in batches.
For example, Lulu and Sigrid, who were beside Lu Yu, are gone, obviously leaving.
The glutton cannot be washed away. As long as Lu Yu is still active in Mera, this name will be mentioned again and again.
Gold and even crystal adventurers are already the limit of the strength of adventurers from various countries in the human territory of Mera. Both Sera and Roye only know that three adventurers with purple scales, that is, seventh-level strength, are not recruited by the four major countries.
During the few days he stayed in Broken Gold City, Lu Yu witnessed adventurers from various regions and dressed differently arriving one after another.
The high bounty offered by Broken Gold City finally worked. After weighing the pros and cons, the gold-level and crystal-level adventurers chose "adventure".
Most of these freedom-loving and powerful adventurers were unruly. They were fine when talking to the city lord Colin, but they became arrogant when talking to the Adventurer's Guild and the Blood Clan Hunter Team in the city. They couldn't hide their contempt in their words.
However, these unruly adventurers seemed to know Luo Ye and were very friendly to him.
The adventurers who had mocked the Blood Clan Hunters for their few gains in recent years with contempt and harsh words changed their faces instantly when they saw Luo Ye standing by.
Not only did they take the initiative to greet Luo Ye politely, but Lu Yu, who was standing by, also complimented him.
This kind of scene happened several times in a row. Luo Ye seemed to know most of the adventurers who came here, no matter how fierce these adventurers looked, like black bears in disguise; no matter how coquettish and arrogant these adventurers were, coldly rejecting one after another of the approaching people; no matter what the adventurers were in a good mood...
In short, these adventurers with average strength above gold, as long as they knew Luo Ye, suppressed their wildness that they could not hide, and talked with him. These people revealed a sense of gratitude to Luo Ye in their words.
"I helped them with some small favors." Luo Ye explained to Lu Yu lightly.
Small favors?
Under Lu Yu's questioning, Luo Ye could not resist and could only tell him some details.
Since falling out with the family, Luo Ye and Xia Leimu have relied on commissions to support themselves. For this reason, they traveled all over the territories of the four major countries, looking for large commissions everywhere, and quickly jumped from the gold rating when they left to crystal.
Experienced and powerful, Luo Ye and Xia Leimu have always been excellent companions for many high-level commissions that need to be completed by teamwork.
In one adventure after another, Luo Ye saved countless dying adventurers and helped countless people in desperate situations. Over the years, their reputations have become very famous among adventurers.
Many mid- and high-level adventurers seem to make a lot of money from a commission, but apart from the cost of recuperating from injuries and equipment loss, they sometimes find that they actually lose money.
Many adventurers would rather use folk remedies to heal their injuries than seek treatment from professional doctors, just to save this money.
After understanding the situation, Luo Ye and Xia Leimu often divide some of their own rewards and give them to these adventurers who are reluctant to give better treatment. Their financial difficulties are often caused by being a money-spending boy.
"Is this just a small favor?" Lu Yu pretended to be angry because he found that Luo Ye always pretended to be humble.
Luo Ye seemed to have guessed Lu Yu's thoughts. He explained awkwardly and helplessly: "I don't want to be accused of buying people's hearts by the Solon royal family. This is something that cannot be boasted about... You should know how important my identity is..."
"So many years have passed, are they so scared?" Lu Yu frowned, "In the war of the infected spirit, your ancestors exchanged their lives for the establishment of Solon..."
"It is because our ancestors are too shining that we are like flowers in the shadows. We want to bloom, but we have to worry about the ruthless strong wind sweeping across the earth." Luo Ye said, "I can say that I have done it with a clear conscience, but in their eyes, maybe it's just buying people's hearts."
Lu Yu began to understand what Luo Ye said under the silver maple statue.
Whether it is the title of the Six Pillars or the noble title of the noble, it is a burden for him.
With Luo Ye in charge, the adventurers in Shattered Gold City behaved very well, but for several days, the dominant blood race did not move.
The adventurers carried weapons and went out of the city in groups, moving forward cautiously all the way. They did not see any active vampires until they reached the area near the Red Flame Mountains.
At first, Lu Yu thought that the vampires had attacked his manor, but the incarnation of light that was hiding in the dark to deliver information sent a message that the territory was very safe and the construction was proceeding in an orderly manner.
For a while, the vampires disappeared.
In order to get more information, the adventurers continued to go deep into the Red Flame Mountains, and finally encountered the vampires who were spreading the news, and "smoothly" engaged in battle with the vampire army.
After returning to Broken Gold City with injuries all over their bodies, Broken Gold City still did not wait for the attack of the vampires.
Lu Yu looked at the mountains covered with red leaves in the distance, and an idea flashed through his mind.
"Do you think... the vampires' attack on Broken Gold City is just a test?" Luo Ye, who had just healed the injured adventurers with Xia Leimu, hurried over and was puzzled by what Lu Yu said, "But their previous actions did not seem fake. In the era when dragons were respected, this place was indeed the territory of the dominant vampires. They should be eager to take it back."
"Ruinjin City is a big city with a huge population and sufficient food. Even if the city is besieged, as long as the residents in the city do not panic and get into chaos, the Vampire Clan will have no chance." Lu Yu said, "We understand this, and the leader of the Vampire Clan, Newman, will naturally also Understand."
"So he chose to consume."
Royer's eyes widened, and following Lu Yu's thoughts, he guessed Newman's true intention.
Broken Gold City is under siege and the adventurers have fled. In order to defend the city, the rulers of the city will inevitably recruit powerful adventurers to fight against the Vampires. To deal with the Vampires who have relatively high-level combat power, gold and crystal must be the first choice...
Gold and crystal adventurers are expensive!
Lu Yu said: "Newman's goal has been achieved. By observing Broken Gold City and asking for help from Solon and the Theocracy, he learned the attitudes and bottom lines of the two major human powers - they will only take action if they excessively infringe on human interests. For this reason, Newman's decision Yes, don’t massacre the city.”
"Newman can force Broken Gold City to launch bounties by sieging the city again and again, and then use the bounty to bring Broken Gold City down. No matter how rich Broken Gold City is, and how rich the deposits it once sat on, it will be defeated in the long tug-of-war. To the vampires, Broken Gold City is here, but they are in the vast mountains."
I expected the Vampires to fight to the death in Broken Gold City, but the idea of picking up the slack on my own was shattered.
Lu Yu couldn't help but sigh, not everyone who attacked the city was a Bidelis, who could lead the dominant vampire race to rise secretly in the gap between Solon and the Theocracy, trying to carve out a little living space bit by bit, Newman's obvious rank Much higher than Bidillis.
And judging from the performance of the vampires, Newman has no internal pressure, and the entire dominant species obeys his words, thus eliminating any hindrance from behind.
After re-examining, Lu Yu discovered that his territory was likely to face tremendous pressure.
"We can't let you succeed."
Lu Yu found the city lord Colin and told him all his speculations.
At first, Colin still had a proud smile on his face. The vampires did not attack, which allowed him to sleep peacefully for a rare period of time.
As Lu Yu spoke in more detail, Colin's expression became solemn and he could no longer laugh.
Lu Yu's description is very likely to come true. The vampires can completely avoid the adventurers' efforts to defend the city, and wait until the adventurers have left to besiege the city again... Each time the adventurers are reconvened, it will be a huge financial burden for Broken Gold City.
"Changing from passive to active may make the situation less bad. Let me think about it... if a more generous reward appears at this time, and then you spread out under the name of 'eradicating alien races for the human race'..."
Colin's solemn face "cleared the clouds and revealed the sun". He wanted to ask something more, but Lu Yu turned and left.
Lu Yu did not continue to teach Colin how to do things. He believed that for his own benefit, Colin would figure it out.
As expected, Colin showed a courageous side. He took the initiative to increase the bounty and tried his best to meet the adventurers' requirements for food and accommodation. However, there were more requests.
"Hunt vampires and exchange wings for bounty."
Seeing this commission, Lu Yu called Roye to go to his territory. They no longer needed to stay in Broken Gold City.
The commission does not emphasize the level of strength. All vampires can be converted into bounties. The first to be unlucky are the weaker low-level vampires, and most of these vampires are the younger generation.
Colin spread the commissioned bounty to the surrounding areas, and it is expected that adventurers will respond soon.
Standing on the hill outside Ruijin City, watching the group after group of adventurers heading towards the Red Flame Mountains like chicken blood, Roye sighed softly.
"A lot of people will die."
"It's just that the money is in place and the people are in place." Lu Yu said, "Colin has already become ruthless. He doesn't want to be beaten passively, so he is preparing to kill. It's just a competition to see who is more ruthless."
"Colin spent a lot of money. He united the nobles in the city and offered a jaw-dropping reward. He even paid a lot of money to invite a duke on the border of Solon and a city-state bishop from the Theocracy to bear witness. Soon the adventurers You will know that there is a city lord who hates the vampires very much and spends a lot of money just to help the human race to "eliminate hidden dangers."
Royer thought thoughtfully: "Did you teach this?"
"No need to teach. When it comes to interests, the nobles' brains will become very good, but don't expect them to have a long-term vision... Their short-sightedness is exactly what I want to see."
Royer heard that Lu Yu had laid a trap for the nobles of Broken Gold City, but he couldn't figure out where the trap was for a while... Looking at it now, the nobles of Broken Golden City had the aura of 'cleaning up alien races for the human race' Yes, spending money to buy reputation is a good deal.
The radiant incarnation promptly informed Laurend of everything that happened here.
Laurent, who was enjoying his leisure while lying in the arms of the nun in black, laughed louder and louder.
The nun in black rarely saw Laurent so happy, and even the servants who came to deliver tea were stunned.
Standing on the balcony, looking at the silver maple tree in the distance, Laurent gently hugged the nun in black: "I feel relieved now."
"Lu Yu seems to have made a decision that satisfies you?"
"I have a hunch that his next actions will also satisfy me... City Lord Colin probably didn't expect that Lu Yu's advice was poisonous. In his opinion, it was the best choice... In fact, he also There is no better choice.”
Laurend said: "He is really similar to Serra... If he appeared earlier, I would really like him to take the position of Archbishop of the Tribunal."
"Will he be willing?" asked the black nun. "Even if he is willing, will Lulu be willing?"
Laurende was stunned for a moment and laughed self-deprecatingly.
After blowing the wind for a while, Laurenende returned to the room again at the urging of the black nun.
"Bring the last thing here."
The black nun was stunned for a moment, then smiled and took out two documents that had been drafted long ago from the secret compartment on the wall.
Laurende read out the dense names on the first document one by one seriously, and along with the sound, Laurenende recalled the past of these people in his mind.
He has always had a good memory, and many members of the Church who have only met him a few times are often moved to tears by the anecdotes he casually said about them.
Mela's Three Kingdoms described this as Laurenende's art of controlling his subordinates, but...Laurende just wanted to understand the marginal cornerstones of the Church, and happened to remember it.
Looking at the familiar names, Laurent picked up the pen and made the final check.
The black-clad nun did not say anything. After Laurent did all this, she quietly put the file away, but the final fate of the people who were checked on the questionnaire was determined.
There were only a few names on the second file, but this time, Laurent held the file and looked into the distance with a sense of loss.
His eyes traveled through time and returned to the time when he first ascended the throne of Pope.
Eighty years passed quickly, and the only person who accompanied him was the black-clad nun.
Nearly a hundred years of life, he had tasted too many joys and sorrows in this world. He thought that there would be no more fluctuations in the face of anything, but at this moment...
Laurent shed tears and picked up the pen resolutely.
The black-clad nun cut her finger, and Laurent was stained with blood. He waved it continuously, and then fell on the bed as if he had lost all his strength, and no longer looked at the bloody file.
"Take it away, let David and the others arrange it immediately."
"I have given everything I should have given... They want too much, too much... I can't give it to them, and neither can the future Church."
"Tell them that the sin is mine, not theirs. If they can see the God of Glory... I will bear their resentment."
"God of Glory is above... May those resentful souls rest in peace."
