Chapter 506 505 They Are Not to Be Feared
Chapter 506 505. They are not to be feared
Orkus said "once" because after the earth-shaking changes in summoning, the summoning of Heroic Spirits based on the usual summoning channels has lost its effect.
During the period when summoning was at its most declining, the few Heroic Spirits that could work were the favorites of many "remnants of summoners", and now this last gift has also been taken away, causing many summoners who gathered in Mostana to mourn the "Blue Water Hero" to wail.
The new changes in summoning are a great opportunity for Lu Yu and Orkus. They want to seize every minute to expand their knowledge boundaries and dig out new summoning knowledge for their own use. However, most of these summoners who hold Lu Yu's replica statue every day for sacrifice and religious worship are old, and learning is difficult for most of them.
Orkus has seen many times in Blue Water City that they resent the ruthlessness of the gods who exist nowhere, taking away their only power and making them like naked babies lingering in this chaotic world.
Lu Yu felt mixed emotions. He could deeply understand the fear of these summoners. Their age had left them no room for learning. The world, which was changing too fast, would not stop for them. Their curses were useless. Tomorrow the sun would rise and set, and everything would be the same as usual.
"I have explored the template of summoning heroic spirits for a long time, but still have no clues. This makes me wonder if the dragon slayer is special. The heroic spirit template has become a thing of the past. The existence of the necromancer has replaced this summoning technique, which was not particularly useful in the first place."
Oerkus showed Lu Yu the key to the necromancer's spellcasting: "The Dawn Territory can also try it. It seems that it is also a science to know what kind of heroic spirit can be communicated. So far, no one can guarantee 100% accuracy to a specific heroic spirit."
Returning to reality, Lu Yu looked at the "necromance magic" and fell into deep thought. The emergence of this magic made death no longer seem to be the end for some individuals? Or, like the past summons, the descending spirits are actually just projections?
Sigrid was particularly interested in this. After understanding the cause and effect, she asked for the magic. Lu Yu did not stop her. The exploration and excavation of the summoning template had made him have no more redundant learning. Even if he had a hunch that the spirit summoning method would shine in the future, his path was already doomed.
Pioneers are destined to cut through thorns and open up a comfortable path for those who come later. They accepted His gift and naturally had to take on this responsibility.
If there is any benefit to being a coal ball, it must be that you can completely become a lazy person.
Summon Xiao An as your mattress, and roll around on her soft skin, feeling the gentle touch that seems to float in the clouds.
When you are thirsty and hungry, call out manta and Xiao Guang to help you get food and feed it into the black mist body. Lu Yu doesn't even need to stretch out his tentacles. Such a life makes Shu Yu unbearable.
"Have you found yourself very..."
"Very useless?"
"So you have self-awareness... You rely on Xiao An for food and sleep, and you command her to move wherever you want. You are completely paralyzed... Do you really hate this body? I think you like it very much." Xu Yu complained mercilessly.
"Now I understand how happy you are who can fly and float at will. This potion perfectly hits all the good spots in my heart. If there is nothing to worry about in Chenxi Territory, I think I can be so lazy for the rest of my life!"
Such a useless declaration deeply shocked Xu Yu: "Assuming everything is peaceful, there is no magic tide, no survival crisis, and no pioneer responsibilities, your goal is to eat and wait for death?"
"Yes!" Lu Yu answered immediately, righteously, "Please, eating and waiting for death is great."
"Thank 'Him' for giving you a sense of responsibility, and thank the magic tide for whipping you." Xu Yu, who still has some ambition, patted his chest.
After such a commotion, Lu Yu was curious about what Sera, who had also turned into a coal ball, was doing at this time?
Maybe it was because everyone was showing their cards, or maybe the relationship was greatly eased after the invasion of the sea monster. After realizing that it was Lu Yu who was in control, Sera did not ask "Why are you looking for me for nothing?" with hostility, but opened the door very skillfully with her tentacles.
There was not much change from the last time she came, but Sera placed Lulu's doll in the open this time, and she didn't even avoid Lu Yu!
Lu Yu looked at the Lulu doll on the chair, and then at Sera: "Is this how you filter information?"
Sera calmly landed on the palm of the Lulu doll, stretched out her tentacles like an octopus, and occupied the entire palm: "After becoming smaller, it feels especially good to have Lulu all to myself, you don't understand."
"By the way, what's the matter with you suddenly running over to find me?"
"No, I'm just curious if you're used to being a coal ball. As far as I know, Lulu's recent potion experiments have failed several times again. I think you'd better be prepared to maintain the status quo for a while."
Sera spread out her tentacles: "If it doesn't work, I'll just confess like this. Although it's a little weird, the main body is still Lulu without a doubt."
"I think so too. The main thing is that after the confession is successful, Lulu can live with me naturally. It feels good to wrap my tentacles around Lulu or be wrapped by Lulu's tentacles?"
The tentacles of the two coal balls were entangled almost instantly. In the mist, the two black glutinous rice balls were "gurgling" on the table.
Given that everyone's physical strength was very high, this fight was doomed to be fruitless. The two people whose tentacles were tangled agreed to three rules and then retracted their tentacles. They tacitly put aside the plot mentioned earlier.
"Put aside the things in your mind and look at this." Sera snorted angrily a few times, and the scroll shaken by the tentacles made a sound of breaking wind, and then "slapped" Lu Yu's face, "Oh, sorry, I didn't control my strength well."
Lu Yu was not annoyed. The winner should be tolerant of the loser. He spread the scroll and floated away for a distance before browsing the information.
"So efficient?" This was his first reaction after reading it.
The school did not give up. The action of testing how long Tanya could persist in supporting the magic awakeners had begun. It was no longer a threat of creating a few corpses, but a real assassin was sent.
Tanya was having a barbecue with her confidants at a summer night hunting celebration. The guards on the periphery were removed one by one at some point, and they were not discovered until they were less than a hundred steps away from Tanya.
Even so, they still used poison mist and homemade hidden weapons to almost hit Tanya herself.
Afterwards, only two assassins were captured, and without exception, they took poison and died, and no effective clues were obtained.
The second assassination used a disguise method to change their appearance to sneak into Tanya's mansion and poisoned the meals that Tanya took regularly.
Coincidentally, Tanya had to attend a banquet later that day, so she put this meal on hold. After that, the mages in the mansion noticed traces of the volatilization of the drug, and then they realized that Tanya had once again brushed past danger.
Two attacks, two escapes from danger, this undoubtedly greatly strengthened Tanya's "chosen" status in the hearts of magic awakeners and even the people of the territory.
Mile recorded the two assassinations faithfully, but she was confused as to whether such a clumsy method was the work of the school.
"Mile suspected that Tanya directed and acted in it herself." Lu Yu said.
"Ordinary people do doubt that living in an era where the school monopolizes academics, they think that those who stand at the top of the tower are all brilliant and talented, and it is natural for them to be both intelligent and intelligent, but they all ignore that some people stand at the top of the tower just because they are born well, not because they are excellent."
The essence of the school monopolizing knowledge is also to monopolize status. The heirs of a powerful school will never fall with the knowledge, which is even a more stable system of inheritance than ordinary dynasties.
Serra's view is contrary to Mile's. This is the work of the school, but it is outsourcing to avoid criticism from others.
"They will soon realize that assassinating Tanya is not a commission that ordinary assassins can handle. She has a high-level magician to escort her. The failed assassination will alert Tanya and make her more cautious. The school can only improve its response level, give up the fluke mentality little by little, and finally take action personally... By then, it will be the beginning of pulling the school down from the peak and letting it slowly decline."
Unlike most people, Lu Yu and Sera are far less optimistic about shaking the foundation of the school. It is too large and too old. It can almost be said that it has been rooted in the entire Mera, and even in the Pan-Mera continent circle.
The huge inertia of the entire social existence makes it still accepted by most people even if it is full of cracks and decayed... Even if it is so unreasonable, it has been deeply rooted in people's hearts for thousands of years.
Weakening its rationality bit by bit, dismantling its influence, and injecting some fresh blood into this dead cycle, this is what Lu Yu and Sera tried to do by raising the flag of Tanya.
And they were also carefully hiding themselves, erasing the traces of themselves hiding behind Tanya. Even if someone could associate their existence with them, they could not lead everything directly to the Dawn Territory.
They followed Laurent's advice: never expose yourself directly in front of the tower, and don't mistakenly believe that your enemy is only the tower.
For this world, the sober people are fools.
…
…
Mosquitoes and insects were dancing wildly. These smelly creatures were like bees smelling nectar, making bursts of noisy sounds, falling like dark clouds, clinging to the rotten bodies that gradually stopped moving, and the turned-out meat pieces released waves of unpleasant stench. The exposed organs were dragged on the ground during the journey, and were trampled into rotten by pairs of feet that had already been worn out, and merged into the earth.
The pungent smell made the animals, monsters, and even scavengers along the way stay away.
The magicians in black embroidered skulls on their clothes and tattooed phosphorescent fire on the skulls.
[Black Corpse Society], this is the name they tentatively gave themselves.
"You should expand your scope of activities, and not just wander around the Molten Mountains. The ground temperature here is high, the fire attribute magic is active, and a large number of fire elemental life forms are active, which accelerates the decay of corpses. These toys have not yet been given more opportunities to play, and they have become nutrients for the Earth Mother and food for mosquitoes and flies..."
The man in the purple wizard robe had a very young voice. He said with a rather regretful tone: "Look at the maggots crawling on their bodies, white and fat, even more excited than the corpses you manipulated. Why not call the Black Corpse Society the White Corpse Society?"
"Who are you here for?"
The Black Corpse Society silently allowed the purple robe wizard to comment on the new power that they had realized by following the tide of magic, and raised their own questions at an appropriate node.
"You know, why bother asking again?" The purple-robed young mage raised his head arrogantly.
"There are many schools of thought, some big and some small."
"It doesn't matter. This time we are dealing with a common enemy. There is more than one organization behind me."
The black corpse will ask: "What do you want?"
"It's very simple. Expand the area of activity into the actual control range of the Green Shade Territory. There is more food there and an environment more suitable for cultivating the army. Your magic experiments require fresh individuals, don't they?"
The members of the Black Corpse Society gathered together. They discussed quietly for a long time and asked, "What can we get?"
"The school will not condemn or interfere with what happens in Green Shade Collar."
"This is what you should guarantee. You should know that Tanya has raised a group of loyal guards. They are far more powerful than our corpses."
"Then what do you want?"
The leader of the Black Corpse Society sneered: "Can you make the decision?"
"I carry the communication array with me, and they are listening." The envoy of the school said proudly, "You are not the only one invited by us. There are many people who are willing to make profits from it. The school's appeal has never disappointed anyone."
"Not all of us are willing to take risks, so in order to have sufficient combat power, we need a place where we can raise corpses and increase our strength. It should have a large population and enough countermeasures samples, and it is best not in a green territory. within to avoid disturbing the public.”
"It seems that you have already chosen a suitable place. Where?"
The Black Corpse Society said in a deep voice: "Beyond the scope of the four major countries, there is an independent city-state [Broken Gold City] and as many as ten small cities around it. We will not be directly sanctioned by the four major countries here... Our commitment to the school cannot be I fully believe that this is the only way to ensure safety.”
The special envoy of the school sent the message, and about half a day later, he got the results of the conspiracy of the major schools.
"The current Pope Antonio is a ruler who faithfully implements the Laurentian faith, so we will find ways to delay the Theocracy. Before that, do what you should do, leave the area where the Theocracy is ready to move, and destroy The foundation of Green Shade Collar.”
"By the way, in the Red Flame Mountains not far from Broken Gold City, the Dawn Territory may be a threat to you. They just defeated the Kraken... You'd better not let them feel threatened, otherwise..."
The Black Corpse Society said in a cold voice: "The sea monsters are nothing to be afraid of. They are the same. The Dawn Leader is just a fool who lives in a turtle shell. They will not interfere with anything that happens in Broken Gold City."
