Chapter 361 360 They Don’t Care
Chapter 361 360. They don’t care
One hundred and fifty-seven people in the Chenxi Territory are all busy on the border at the moment.
The mist demon looked down from the air, and on the snow-capped land, a mud-yellow line slowly rose from the edge of the dawn zone.
Under the interference of the magic wave, the magic array could not be guaranteed to be 100% effective. Lu Yu mobilized all the magicians in the Dawn Leader to build a tall city wall on the original boundary line of the first phase - they never expected that the one that had been slowly advancing had been The border will be strengthened in this way in the future.
In fact, this cannot be regarded as a city wall. The Dawn Territory has no time to polish the details. The magicians only mobilize the earth element and cast earth attribute magic to make them stand like hills and connect them to each other to block and slow down. The effect of the infected.
The leader of the civil engineering team, Yucao, an outstanding talent who was praised by Laurent for his sand table models, woodworking and stone carvings, and architectural design during the black nun era, stood on the moving dirt hill and constantly observed the surrounding "city walls".
Due to the fluctuation of magic power and the sudden incident, the height of all the earth walls is limited. So far, they can only be three people high. Because of the cold weather, the safety issues caused by the earth and simple splicing have been solved to the greatest extent.
"Ah!" A startled breath attracted Yucao's attention, and she looked back.
Dawan's huge body gradually became illusory, and the dirt and gravel attached to his body scattered all over the ground like a waterfall.
The fluctuations in magic power became more and more obvious, and Lu Yu's summons would suddenly dissipate within an hour or two when they were outside.
Fortunately, Sigrid has already explained to everyone in the Dawn Territory the safety precautions during the magic wave. One of them is not to get close to Lu Yu's summons - all the shaped summons will burst out when they dissipate. Elements to match the magic.
The disturbed bowl cannot be summoned for a short period of time, and everyone can only carry earth and stones manually.
Seeing Lu Yu approaching, Yucao quickly saluted respectfully.
Lu Yu waved his hand: "I heard from Sigrid that you plan to lay out a large number of traps on the flat areas outside the city wall. I agree with this, but I only have one question. Now that the magic is intermittently effective, how efficient will we be? Can you keep up?"
Everyone is confident in their own professional field, and Yucao is no exception. She raised her head and said firmly: "Compared with the wall that still needs to be carefully built, our trap does not need to be too clever, or even only needs to be destroyed. That's it. According to the information Master Milai brought back from the Theocracy, there are still a few infected monsters that can use magic. The road is rugged and full of traps. Remote magic and your summons can be used to the maximum extent. effect."
Lu Yu and Lulu looked at each other.
Lulu left the Dawn Territory on Pegasus toward the three magicians she had already chosen, and flew towards Port Demorris.
Looking at Yucao who was a little confused, Lu Yu patted her shoulder: "Lulu is very strong. She personally leads the team to guard. If traces of dipping are found, she can delay some time for you."
A shadow that covered the sky fell from the sky. After Huo Gu landed, hot air surged from his nostrils, and the strong wind blew Lu Yu so hard that he couldn't open his eyes.
"You should have warned me earlier that I can't help with the walls, but I'm more than happy to destroy them."
Lu Yu helplessly wiped the moisture from his face: "We got the news not much earlier than you, Huo Gu, our enemy is very..."
"Needless to say, I promised that I would defend my deep sleep place with claws and flames. I still haven't been able to enter that wonderful and long dream. How can this territory be destroyed..."
Huo Gu raised his head and looked at the mist demon not far away who was helping to deliver the news. He kept floating up and down in the air, his eyes were unusually soft.
"She made a choice, and I also made a choice. Before the agreement is completed, this is a curse, Lu Yu."
Huo Gu put his head in front of Yucao, and Yucao couldn't help but tremble when he saw his own image reflected in the eyes that were the same size as his own.
"There is no need to be afraid...ma'am...oh, recently I heard the mist demon say that you guys don't seem to like the title ma'am. It often makes you look old...how about calling me a little girl?"
Lu Yu didn't know how to complain, but it wasn't the right time to correct her. He said, "You should call her Yucao."
"Cortex, come on, tell me what to do. Now I am your summon and follow your command."
Under the gaze of countless people, Yucao stood on Huo Gu's head.
Countless bards say that dragon-slaying warriors raise their sharp blades and step on the body of a giant dragon to reach the peak of strength and power; those ancient and heart-stirring fantasy poetry collections depict dragon knights holding spears and riding dragons galloping through the mountains countless times. Pictures of the sky; treasures, adventures, dragons and wealth, timeless classic themes, depict the suffocating and destructive power of the dragon to everyone who reads it.
Fantasy is just a fantasy after all. Since the Disaster of the Infused Spirit, the Mera Dragon has become extinct due to backstabs again and again.
And the moment Huogu raised his claws and slammed into the ground, the earth trembled.
The swinging dragon's tail was raised high, and then fell heavily. With an exaggerated loud noise, the ground was covered with radial cracks.
"No, don't use so much force..."
Lu Yu and Sera, who came in a hurry, quickly stopped him.
Huo Gu turned back with a puzzled look on his face, his huge dragon eyes showing confusion and confusion. He raised his sharp claws from the deep pit that had been dug out, and scratched his mouth in a humane manner.
"The mud walls we just built cannot withstand the torment..."
Huo Gu suddenly understood and asked, "Anything to add?"
"No...no more..."
Although Lu Yu was thinking about whether he could still get this land in the future when he spoke... But when he thought that the other party was Yun Ran, Lu Yu didn't dare to take any chances.
"Did you send someone to notify Maple Blood Castle?" Lu Yu asked Sera.
"Sent, they should have received the news and started preparing." Sera said, "Not only Maple Blood, I also sent a warning to other small races in the Red Flame Mountains. As for whether they are willing to believe it... I can't control it."
Although Lu Yu had made up his mind to target Maple Blood, he had to put aside his small thoughts as he faced a powerful enemy - as a large family in the Hongyan Mountains, once the Maple Blood with a total of 20,000 dependents were infected, then the Dawn Leader would only will face greater trouble.
There are no large-scale defense equipment, and they cannot be built immediately.
Magic fluctuates frequently, and you will face Squib situations anytime and anywhere.
The defense measures were crude and hasty.
Seriously understaffed.
Lu Yu looked around and felt heavy.
Although everyone was ready to sacrifice their lives for the territory, Lu Yu and Sera were already ready to abandon the territory and evacuate everyone.
Laurende entrusted so many people to him, which was a great trust. It took Lu Yu a long time to call out each of their names... They were living people who were willing to call themselves lords and People who sacrifice themselves for everything that the territory has today...
If the summoned object cannot contain the infection, rather than letting those who trust them and block everything for the territory lose everything in vain, it is really not that hard to accept that they give up everything.
Sera's rabbit statue received new information, and Lu Yu quickly triggered it.
"Lord Serra, I met with Pope Antonio, and he has agreed to share the Theocracy's believer channels with the Dawn Leader, so that the entire Mera tribe can be fully prepared for the upcoming catastrophe... Yes, we The interrupted information network can be reactivated, and now I am rushing back to the Dawn Territory..."
"The latest news is that Demorris has not completely fallen. There are still Theocracy soldiers occupying some areas in the city, struggling to use long-range magic to block the pace of the contamination. Demorris's complex sewer network also facilitates their transfer. "
"However, in comparison, the city-states near Demorris have been completely infected. The snow-capped mountains are not safe either. The frogmen living on the snow-capped mountains cannot get in touch with the ice crystal elements. If the Theocracy still cannot get a reply tonight, you can be sure that the The snowy mountains fell."
"As a result, the foot of the Snow Mountain is no longer safe, and the areas around Broken Gold City and the Red Flame Mountains will be directly threatened by Dip... The priests of the Theocracy speculate that hundreds of thousands of Dip will be born in this area... This is already the largest Great expectations.”
"I will try my best to get back to you. Please be careful with Diran. They have changed. In Demorris City, there are survivors who escaped and witnessed Diran using magic to break the fortress!"
There is no good news, especially the last one which is extremely bad.
During the first Disaster, the number of Disciples who could use magic was very small. Later scholars racked their brains and couldn't figure out why.
However, less than a month after Dipran came back, not only did Dipran use magic to attack the city in the northern territory of Solon, there were also witness reports from Demorris, and there were quite a few...
"Are they evolving?" Lu Yu himself was horrified when this guess came out.
Scholars who study infestation believe that an infested life will fall into madness and be unable to extricate itself. The first emperor of Cordzon is the best example.
The power of the infection suddenly failed, and a large number of infected people died in madness, which proved that their sanity was destroyed when they were infected, and only a few with exceptionally strong willpower could retain their "self".
With their thoughts occupied by the infection, they only retain the instinct of "eating". Looking for food to maintain their own actions is the driving force for them to keep moving forward and spread the infection. For this reason, the infected body will mercilessly eat those who have not been fully infected. .
"Casting a spell requires mobilizing magic power... It requires rational control and guidance of magic power. How can a puppet with no reason or even a destroyed mind release magic." Lu Yu wanted to figure out this question that countless scholars have puzzled over. , but in vain.
Seeing Lu Yu's anxious look, Sera reached out her hand to Lu Yu's chin and gently held it.
Lu Yu was hit in the jaw and woke up from the pain. He looked at Sera complainingly.
"Don't think too much. There are some problems that cannot be solved from our perspective. Do you think you are wiser than the scholars who left in search of the truth?" Serra said, "What we have to do now is To protect our common home...and at the same time..."
Following Sera's line of sight, countless busy figures came into view up and down the mud wall.
They did not work under the authority and threat of the lord, but worked hard willingly.
"This is also their home..."
Lu Yu's rule over the Dawn Territory was very loose, and the majesty of the three lords would only be brought out on a few occasions.
Lu Yu, Sera and Lulu made it clear from the beginning - the Dawn Territory can be different from the outside world, but it cannot be completely different.
Those things called dross have become rock solid after thousands of years. Even if you hate or hate them, you can't change them and they have become secular principles.
Don't bite the bullet, just to show your uniqueness and fight against the secular trend. This is Lu Yu's most important experience along the way.
As charismatic as Laurent is, he can only stumble forward in the face of the times, tearing open the dark curtain with difficulty, letting a ray of light shine through the gray sky.
He and Mao Jing both knew where the problem came from, but they could not wait for a solution.
Laurent was someone Lu Yu was not qualified to evaluate, and he would naturally not touch the unsolvable problem that even Laurent could only sigh with regret.
So, as lords, they just slightly untied the shackles that bound their necks, did not oppress and torture them, and treated them as "people" equal to themselves.
Just like this, these people who came from poverty and bathed in glory around Laurent have already praised them secretly and compared them with Laurent...
Everyone's enthusiasm for work has been mobilized to the greatest extent, and the cheerful singing of black-clad nuns can be heard in the territory almost every day.
When Lu Yu learned about it, he was silent for a long time, and a sense of depression lingered in his chest.
Ordinary people on this land are so humble that as long as you loosen the chains that are about to suffocate them, they will be grateful to you and ecstatic...
Why don't magicians, nobles, and royal families understand?
Or do they know better than anyone else, but they just don't care?
Because magic and knowledge are in their hands, and countless historical experiences tell them that they are sure to win and will rule for thousands of years, so they raise their heads proudly and ignore those cattle and horses that are trampled under their feet and paved the way for their rule with their flesh and blood?
"Hahahahahaha..." Lu Yu suddenly laughed out loud.
Sera didn't understand, and her beautiful eyes blinked: "Why are you laughing all of a sudden?"
"I suddenly understood..."
"Understand what?"
"Understand the thoughts of the snow monster... I can understand what kind of mood he was in to awaken the dye..." Lu Yu said, "I really hope he is a lunatic... Unfortunately, he may be calmer than anyone else."
Under Hogu's miraculous slap, the main roads in all directions of the Dawn Territory were rotten like vegetable fields that had been plowed several times.
The efficiency of the dragons is shocking, and their simple and crude methods and the power bestowed by the Creator are also impressive.
"Lu Yu, a question..." Hogu, who had done all this, came back and spoke hurriedly.
"I heard Sigrid say that a butterfly appeared in Port Demoris... and a purple crystal giant appeared in the North..." Hogu pondered for a moment, "Although it may be a coincidence, do you still remember the Silent Mountains?"
"The two puppets that guard the barrier made by Vanessa happen to be butterflies and giants."
