Chapter 553 551. Visitors from the Sea

As the remaining creatures on the beach, the three coal balls can only choose to ask the starfish for directions, but the starfish looked at each other in confusion, and the wet flagella on their bodies were messy in the wind.

Sera hesitated and said, "It seems that we can't communicate in the same language."

Lulu asked, "Are they intelligent?"

"Obviously, although we saved them unintentionally, but, look..."

When a starfish that is much larger than you actively shows its mouthparts, turns its stomach inside out, and then spits out a lot of crystal clear smooth stones, and pushes them in front of you like a treasure... The picture is beautiful and strange.

"So this is the structure of a starfish?" Sera was very glad that she didn't have a human body, otherwise her expression might have been ruined when the starfish vomited its stomach just now.

Even after being with Lu Yu for so long, her resistance is still not high.

It doesn't take words to know that the starfish is expressing gratitude, but Lu Yu doesn't care. They just participated in the battle by accident. They are just passers-by here. Their current plan is to confirm the direction as soon as possible and return to Mela, because the school has been fighting fiercely with the Black Corpse Society.

Without the two pioneers of Calden and Sarah, the Black Corpse Society felt the shadow cast by the academic tower for the first time. The various factions that coveted the soul control technique completed a great unity. In just the first battle, the undead army of the Black Corpse Society was defeated.

The continuous messages sent by the Dawn Territory indicated that there were more major events, but the distortion made it impossible for the three coal balls to accurately piece together the original appearance, and they could only fill in the blanks by themselves.

The three coal balls suggested that the starfish return to the sea by drawing a picture on the sand. Judging from their performance in the battle just now, they would not gain much advantage by confronting the sea monster.

The starfish manipulated a ray of sea water and responded crookedly on the sand.

"What does it mean..." Lulu looked at the gradually taking shape picture curiously.

Behind a fat starfish is a giant creature that looks like an ammonite, and a race with fish heads and human bodies. As if he was afraid that San Meiqiu would misunderstand, he added half of a torn little starfish.

"It seems that they were forced to migrate and passed by here on the way. Sera, have you seen an intelligent race in the form of an ammonite?"

"At least not in the waters of Mera. If this starfish was not deliberately exaggerated because of fear when depicting it, then this ammonite is too big."

"It seems that there are many strange guys in the sea during this magic tide. Could this be the danger that the siren feels?" Lu Yu murmured.

Calling the Demon Devouring Tree over, gently patting his trunk to show encouragement, and hugging the fallen "fruit", Lu Yu is ready to leave this beach and find someone who can talk to confirm the coordinates.

The starfish on the beach all looked up at the Demon Devouring Tree, their movements were so neat that they seemed to have been rehearsed.

Seeing that Lu Yu was about to leave, the starfish that was talking to the coal ball quickly spit out some bubbles to stop him, and then twisted its body uneasily, swung the controlled water line and pointed at the Demon Devouring Tree, and then pointed at itself.

"What does it mean?" Lulu was at a loss again.

"Who knows, just be perfunctory." They met by chance, and Lu Yu had no interest in communicating deeply with the starfish. "Demon Devouring Tree, you stay here and give them a few fruits to play with."

After giving the order, the three coal balls disappeared from the spot in a flash.

The Demon Devouring Tree, which can still exist for a while away from the summoner, faithfully traveled the order, and it shook off the "eyeballs" that had just grown, and thousands of them drooped in front of the starfish, allowing them to touch them.

One by one, the starfish happily approached the big eyeballs rolling on the ground, and they were overjoyed and stuck to them, as if they were some treasures.

If Lu Yu could see this scene, he would definitely sigh sincerely: "There are still many strange races in the world."

Three Coal Balls caught a tree spirit that was foraging. Because of its slow movement and numerous roots, the old tree immediately shouted "Please let my children go", as if Coal Ball was some kind of unforgivable villain who would kill the whole family at any time.

The so-called children of the tree spirit are wild flowers growing on its roots. The human eyes that appeared on the wrinkled bark showed an extremely uneasy look.

"Where is this?" Lu Yu was too lazy to explain the misunderstanding caused by the body of Coal Ball, so he just got straight to the point.

"Here..." The tree spirit was stunned for a while, "The forest elves named this place Gridal, and the people of Letes should call this place the Wind Forest."

"Letes..." Sera thought for a moment, "It's a familiar place name, is this Guwell?"

Sera, who got a positive answer from the tree spirit, suddenly realized that the natural teleportation array deep in the mine led directly to Guwell, the elf continent near Mera.

The magic tide six hundred years ago caused the collapse of Melias in Mera, and the continental hegemony ushered in a new competition. In the end, good luck stood on the side of the human race. The three rising powers once again took over the property of the giant owl and continued their rule.

However, in Guweier, it was just the opposite. The human race here declined in the last magic tide. The rise of the elves, the blood race, and the half-dragons led to the ill-fated fate of the human race for nearly six hundred years. Many human races could not stand the status gap and left their homes to Mera.

"It is quite far from Mera, and because of the magic tide, the guidance effect of the communication array is invalid. We may get lost if we cross the sea directly." Sera said, "Find a sea chart guide to go with us. Even if the magic tide is more dangerous, as long as we pay enough money, they can move."

Following the guidance given by the trembling tree spirit, he dragged an adventurer into the cave on the way, and kindly borrowed a cloak from him. The three coal balls swaggered onto a main road full of pedestrians. And this road leads directly to the coastal city of Leites.

Due to the glorious history of Mela and the migration of people speaking the Mela language, the architectural style of Letes was also tainted with the flavor of Melias. Before entering the city-state, Sanmei Qiu saw the towering marble tower in the distance. There are still two, and the stone bridge connecting the two towers is clearly visible.

Sera, who has visited here, explained: "Those are ritual towers made by elves. The twin towers with this structure can quickly complete the high-standard ritual magic of the forest elves, 'Call of the Forest God'. After the energy is accumulated, it will trigger the surrounding people." The power of vegetation makes the town surrounded by plants, and these wildly growing vegetation provide energy for the magic circle itself, forming a short-term cycle, which can be regarded as a genius work of the forest spirits of this continent. "

Lulu recalled: "If I remember correctly, Mera's magicians also wanted to imitate it, but they were never able to figure out the key, which led to frequent breakdowns of ritual magic."

"Yes, it can be said that Guwel's elves relied on this hand to defeat many competitors and reach the top six hundred years ago. Therefore, the forest elves enjoy a very high status among various elves."

San Meiqiu handed over the two wild rabbits he had caught on the way into the city to the merchant, exchanged them for a few copper coins, and bought a mask, completely covering his face to prevent the powerful magician from noticing anything strange. After the preparations were correct, they Entered a local adventurer's guild.

The elves at the reception desk were busy answering strange questions raised by adventurers from various races. Lu Yu's question about finding a navigation guide was a breeze. With only one copper coin, the elves at the reception thoughtfully informed them of several questions. Where good guides are located, and how much they charge.

The starting price is ten silver coins, and the reward increases accordingly depending on the difficulty level. This is not a problem for the three lords of the Dawn Territory. In Mera, they can pay whenever they want.

But here is Guwell... They were penniless when they were teleported, and the only two copper coins they had were obtained by selling "Sela".

"How many sera can be exchanged for ten silver coins?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Yu felt a strange mood swing locking him in the chat room.

Lu Yu, who subconsciously murmured, forgot that everyone was currently partially connected, and he quickly felt the biting cold wind.

"Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue, it's your tribe...er, is it your prototype?" Lu Yu's mouth suddenly became stupid.

"If you don't have wisdom, you are not one of my kind." Sera snorted.

Lulu said: "Accept the commission. Don't be in a hurry to go home. The school and the Black Corpse will both suffer losses. They are not good things anyway."

Considering that the Dawn Territory is currently very safe, Lu Yu and Sera put aside the idea of ​​"kidnapping the navigation guide" that had just emerged in their hearts.

"Did you just..." Lulu noticed something and asked in confusion.

"You are overthinking, we just want to accept the commission." The two said in unison and blocked Lulu's mouth.

The three of them, who had not set foot in the Adventurers Association for a long time, were surprised to find that seventh-level bounties often appeared in the commission classification, and there were even eighth-level bounties.

"There is actually a seventh-level bounty here, so many?"

"You must not have accepted the commission for a long time. Since the magic wave began, each university has released rank evaluation data, showing that the number of people promoted to seventh and eighth levels is increasing. You can understand that the environment with sufficient magic power has made everyone Some magicians have improved and are able to use magic with more demanding conditions."

The entrusted receptionist did not dislike the "ignorance" of briquettes who came from the countryside, but patiently explained the reason.

"However, very few people will accept these seventh-level commissions from the Adventurer Association. Although the rewards are not bad, but..." the receptionist smiled slightly and pointed to the sword symbol at the bottom of the reward sign, "Most of them are for hunting designated magic. Not to mention the difficulty of tracking, the difficulty of hunting by different magicians is also difficult to measure based on their ranks."

The fact that all hunting magicians were commissioned made Lulu want to fight, but after listening to the receptionist's explanation, she felt uninterested.

If you meet a magician who is as good at hiding as Sarah, the commission will probably hang here for the rest of your life.

Level 6 and 5 commissions are cut off. Level 6 simply does not exist. Level 5 is because it is not difficult to complete. Once it appears, it will be quickly claimed. The rest are small commissions below level 4.

The fourth level is not bad, dealing with some sea beasts that harass ships, but the third level is more inclined to do odd jobs, because Lu Yu suddenly saw the commission of sorting the caught seafood, and even clearly marked that he was familiar with seafood. people can get additional bonuses.

It has to be said that the Adventurer's Guild in Goodwell has a sense of helping freelancers get re-employed.

Lu Yu won a commission to go to sea to deal with sea beasts in the area. The amount of thirty silver coins per person was not too much, but at least he had the confidence to communicate with the navigation guide.

"I have registered your name. Since the employer who issued the commission mandates that a team of four must be formed, you may act together with three strange adventurers. Do you accept it?"

"Is there still such a request?"

"Because there have been previous incidents where adventurers who were not very capable in actual combat ended up feeding the sea beasts with their harsh words and causing their employers to suffer losses. Therefore, most employers will now add such a rule to maximize the safety of their property."

Lu Yu murmured in the chat room: "We seem to have suffered a loss... we could have received three amounts of money."

Complaints are complaints, Sanmeiqiu honestly participated in the magic test session to prove that he indeed has certain strength to cooperate with others.

Lu Yu arrived at the designated dock and found that his teammates were two women and one man.

The man has a standard fisherman appearance, with an unkempt beard. The sea breeze blowing for a long time makes him look very old. In addition, he doesn't do much trimming, and he looks like a savage.

He did not introduce himself, but simply commented after Lu Yu arrived: "Mysterious guy."

The two women were fine. According to the information provided by the receptionist, they were both elemental magicians with a high affinity for water. Therefore, they had been dealing with aquatic products in the sea for a long time and had extremely rich experience in aquatic operations.

Perhaps because Lu Yu’s resume was blank, the three people who felt that their efficiency would be hindered all behaved indifferently. After greeting Lu Yu on board the ship, there was no more communication. Until they arrived at the destination, Lu Yu didn’t know what the three of them were. person's name.

But that’s fine, everyone is here to make money. If you don’t pay attention to me, I won’t pay attention to you. It’s good to complete the task and go back to each other’s houses.

After sailing on the windless sea and arriving at the designated waters, the leading man took out a packet of fluorescent powder from his trouser pocket and shook it around the ship.

"Wait until there is movement under the water. Remember, don't attack randomly at the first time. Sense magic, hold your breath and concentrate, and wait for them to approach. Do you understand?"

The woman didn't respond. Lu Yu realized that this was meant for him, so he politely replied yes.

The man turned around cursing, his words full of dissatisfaction with the Adventurer's Guild.

"Why did you send a whiteboard with no experience?"

Sierra's thoughts suddenly condensed: "Lu Yu, do you feel..."

"I can feel it. There are a lot of them, they are very big, and they are swarming towards us at an extremely fast speed."

"Do you think this is a commissioned target?" Lulu was a little confused. "With this size and quantity, it seems that it shouldn't be the fourth level. I remember that the Adventurer's Guild specifically marked it as a slight risk."

Lu Yu glanced at the other three people who had no reaction to the incoming guests in the deep sea.

"It's probably not a marginal risk anymore, at least not to them."
