Chapter 586 584 Eating Melon for the First Time
Chapter 586 584. First time eating melon
"What, you are going on a long journey again?" Sigrid, who was pouring tea for Briquettes, shook her hand.
"Recovering Vanessa's relics is a priority for me at the moment. I believe you also see the great potential for using heroic spirit templates, and I don't think only we have mastery of such templates."
Sigrid was puzzled: "But it seems that you are the only one who has mastered several templates, Meira, and the others haven't even explored one."
The members of the summoning team who were called to listen in the study collectively aimed at the sphenoid bone, and she raised her hand and reminded: "The exploration of mimicry summoning is actually my first step..."
Lu Yu rolled up the tea cup with his tentacles and took a sip, exhaling a breath of black mist comfortably. The slime next to him hurriedly sucked it away as if it was some kind of treasure. Although Lu Yu was surprised, he didn't say much.
"Just like what Sphenoid Bone did, people who are eager to explore the power of summoning will always find a key opportunity by accident and take that crucial step. Under the huge base, someone will always discover other template."
Lu Yu continued, "It should be noted that heroic spirits are one of the few reliable summoning forms that summoners can still use in the past era. Many people will definitely try this when entering the new era. I believe that soon, the heroic spirit template will The secret will no longer be a secret, and the 'relics' that play a decisive role will be obtained by various summoners, or even... destroyed."
"I can't bet that every magician from other continents will be lucky. New eras will always create new legends. Sarah and Kalden cannot be the only ones born in response to the times."
Sigrid sighed helplessly. She had no intention of stopping these three conscientious lords from traveling, she was just asking questions out of habit.
"Go, go, but just like last time, please plan in advance what each group needs to do during your absence, so that I can manage it more easily."
Lu Yu handed a stack of scrolls to Huo Mu. She was "fighting" with Xiao Niba's tail with her wings, blinking and looking at her teacher blankly.
He rubbed his tentacles on Bao Mu's head, then pinched the small wings that were still entangled with the squirrel's big tail, and said with a smile.
"This is some summoning experience and insights I have recently summarized. Since you are currently the number one in the Dawn Territory and the only one who has successfully summoned a flesh and blood chariot, I am very optimistic about you." Lu Yu said hopefully, "Your understanding Your ability should be above that of others, and try to share your thinking with them.”
Although he has lived in Chenxi Territory for a long time, seeing Lu Yu handing over his knowledge and experience so readily and with almost no reservations still makes Sphenoid Bone full of emotion.
Even in the glorious era, not many magicians could be so generous, right?
Knowing that Lu Yu was going to travel again, the first person who came to visit him was naturally Jeffrey.
Together with Olga, he managed the forest elf slaves and lived a very leisurely life every day. The seabirds that accompanied him all became fat and white after being fed by everyone. If Jeffrey hadn't stopped them, they would not go to sea next time. Whether it can take off smoothly is a question.
Jeffrey was not a stubborn person. He quickly accepted the way the Dawn Leader treated the elf slaves. He did a good job and did as the Romans did, without any discomfort.
He was particularly close to the sea and went to the seaside many times. As a result, he got to know many sea monsters of the Deep Green Sea Tribe. They belonged to the same camp and had rich experience in sea travel. The stories that Jeffrey told in his spare time made the Deep Green Sea Monster who had lived in the sea for a long time. The Green Siren was eye-opening.
Although he had only arrived here not long ago, Jeffrey was so popular that even Coal Ball couldn't help but sigh. He was worthy of being a well-known maritime guide, with impeccable emotional intelligence and interpersonal relationships.
"Need my help?"
Having walked on the sea all year round, Jeffrey is full of passion for adventure.
However, this time Lu Yu chose to refuse.
"I am relatively familiar with the route this time, and compared to other areas, the route from Mera to Kolai is actually still open."
"Doesn't it mean they are still very close?" Jeffrey was shocked.
"After all, Mera's magicians are relatively strong, so many routes are still safe. My messenger said that the route from Wupu City to Kolai has only had a 20% loss rate since the magic wave started. "
If it were in peacetime, if the ship loss rate on a route reached this number, it would definitely be called a death route, attracting adventurers to investigate the cause of the accident, but in the magic tide, this loss rate is too friendly. After all, Goodwill went there Nearby mainland China has a loss rate of nearly 40%.
"Wait a minute... you talked about the route loss rate. Do you want to follow the ocean-going ships across the sea, but don't you own a dragon?" Jeffrey was confused.
Lu Yu patted the slime on the head, filled a cup of orange-flavored liquid for Jeffrey, handed it to him, and then spoke calmly.
"Chenxi Territory has an area that was originally an underground mine. After the magic wave, magic spewed out from the mine's sinkhole. The high concentration of magic triggered the crystallization phenomenon, turning the surrounding area of the mine into a crystal forest. Do you know this?"
Jeffrey nodded: "Miss Sigrid took me to visit and warned me not to go too deep, because the closer to the core area of the mine, the higher the concentration of magic power, and even natural magic explosions have occurred, which is very dangerous."
"That is the only restricted area in the Dawn Territory. To this day, the depths of the mine are still spewing out magic power, continuously, in varying sizes, like a geyser."
Lu Yu took the shaved ice from the slime dining cart, poured it with slime juice and ate it.
Jeffrey, a forest elf, couldn't understand eating cold drinks on a cold day, but adhering to the idea of trying new things when he comes to a new place, he also asked for one from the slime food truck.
Crushed ice scratched his throat, and the chill went down his throat and reached his stomach, making his heart feel chilly.
Although Lu Yu's guard was lying on the marble tea table and releasing bursts of warmth, this open-air tea pavilion still enjoyed the "coolness" brought by General Dong.
His heart was cold and his skin was cold. After just one bite, Jeffrey didn't intend to continue. He hurriedly asked: "What does this have to do with the dragon?"
Lu Yu cast his gaze in the direction of the sinkhole: "Recently, some phenomena worthy of his attention have occurred there."
Several horrific scars were formed on the earth that collapsed due to the earthquake caused by the magic wave. After a period of silence, most of the rift valleys were filled with water and covered with moss. Some tenacious insects could be vaguely seen lurking at any time. It may trigger explosive, magic-rich rock bottom activities.
There are also some rift valleys that are already covered with crystal clusters. This is the product of the materialization of high-concentration magic power. Crystal clusters of different shapes break out from the rock walls, making the dark valley bottom sparkling.
The good news is that these clusters do not have the corrosive ability of summon number two.
The bad news is that the land in the area where the crystal clusters have taken root has become brittle. Without some transformation, there will be no grass growing for a long time in the future.
In the only restricted area in the Dawn Territory, the two giant dragons closed their eyes tightly and carefully felt the flow of magic from the depths of the sinkhole and the movement of the rock mass.
They have been here for several days, and silence has spread between the two of them. It is not that they are reticent, and the concentrated dragon always tends to ignore the flow of time in the outside world.
The first one to wake up was Hogu, and the sound of his claws sharpening made Fagutar open his eyes.
"What do you think?"
Fagutar stepped on the edge of the cracked rock mass of the sinkhole and looked down into the bottomless depths of the sinkhole, which seemed to lead straight into the abyss.
After hesitating for a long time, he said: "Wonderful power."
After another period of silence, Fagutar added: "I control the power of the earth and vegetation, so I am very sensitive to the flow of power in the rock body and the movement of the strata under the earth. It is a force rising from the bottom up. The 'power' is hidden... No, I think it is too large a magic power that inhibits its movement, so it is only slowly leaking now."
Although the description was quite vague, Huo Gu nodded solemnly: "This is exactly why I am looking for you. Your attribute affinity is more suitable for finding the secrets hidden under the earth. Like me, I can only feel the rising Something in the magic is causing the ground to collapse and the earth to break apart."
Fagutar tilted his head and crossed his arms: "But what on earth is that... I can only feel that it exerts an upward push on the stratum, as if it is trying to push away the hard and heavy soil and spurt out... …The only thing that’s certain is that it’s not pure magic.”
"I agree with this. It is similar to the power of suppressing demons. It is another kind of power based on magic power. However, so far, it only seems to show the characteristic of 'rising', which makes me think about whether it is It exists deep underground in the form of certain minerals.”
The dragon's curiosity arose. After Huo Gu reported the incident to Lu Yu, he stopped leaving the sinkhole area. The two monsters, who were not afraid of explosions, searched for answers day and night.
Lu Yu did not intend to disturb Huo Gu. He knew that there were not many things that could arouse the dragon's curiosity, which could be the nutrient for them to resist decay.
Knowing that their lord would leave the territory again, the leaders of each group came to the door one after another, either to report on the progress of the work, or to ask for instructions on the direction of the work now.
Judith and Olga, who pushed open the door of Lu Yu's study, were holding a blue ball-sized ball, which was "rolling" in the dark with a little green in it.
"Lord, Lord, you have to take a look at this baby before leaving the Dawn Territory." Olga is as energetic as ever. No matter when you see her, her tone will always make you feel energetic.
"This is?"
Neither Sera nor Lulu had seen this big man who looked like fruit and cooked vegetables, but Lu Yu always felt that he had seen it before.
Judith hurriedly introduced: "Lord, do you still remember the strange seed that Tanya's caravan sold when it first arrived in the Dawn Territory?"
Judith described it like this, and Lu Yu remembered that the merchants were selling the unknown seed to Yucao, and Yucao seemed to be asking for it, and the final transaction price also made the black merchants cry.
"If I remember correctly, the businessmen said this was a wheat seed?"
"What we planted is a vine. Perhaps because of the moisture from the magic tide, it grows very fast, and the fruits it bears are basically this big. However, because no one knows what it is, no one dares to Eat." Olga said, "In the end, I broke it open and fed it to a pig, a cow, and a monster that was knocked unconscious. Then... I took a big bite."
Olga licked the corners of her mouth happily: "It's great, rustling, sweet, and juicy. It's so delicious."
Lu Yu seemed to realize something. He tapped the skin of the melon with his tentacles and then split it into two parts. The red color that he was very familiar with came into view.
Without hesitation, he leaned in and sniffed.
"This smell... I miss it so much!"
As he spoke, Lu Yu manipulated his body and plunged into the melon, taking a few big bites like a wild civet, sucking the juice hard, feeling the wonderful taste of the sandy melon flesh, and couldn't help but sigh.
"Surprisingly, it can be eaten..." Lu Yu seemed to remember something and asked hurriedly, "Is this the first time for you to see this plant?"
Lulu and Sera hurriedly said yes, and Olga and Judith were sure that they had never seen a similar map in the book, and even the nuns from the Church were very unfamiliar with it.
"That's great... Next summer, we have more wonderful fruits to cool off."
"Lord Lu Yu, you know it?"
Judith sighed and reminded Olga: "Have you forgotten that Lord Lu Yu is from a distant foreign continent? Fruits that we haven't seen here may be very common there... So, Lord Lu Yu, what is its name?"
"Although it is slightly different, it is similar fruit. We call it watermelon."
Olga clapped her hands: "Watermelon, Lord Lu Yu, it can grow very well. We only have one seed, but after two cultivations, it has produced a field. It's amazing. Because you haven't tasted it yet, we have been storing it in the ice cellar after harvesting it. Can we..."
"Although watermelon is best eaten in summer, it should be suitable to taste it at any time. Let's make arrangements and eat watermelon today."
Holding the watermelon, without wasting any melon flesh, Coal Ball nibbled the melon skin cleanly, and even the part that was no longer sweet was licked by Lulu and Sera.
It was their first time eating melons in their lives, and they didn't know how much to eat to avoid wasting, so they made a joke. However, Lu Yu did not correct them, but admired them maliciously.
"What a good thing... sweet and moist, the flesh can even be made into juice and used as a drink. I heard you say that it tastes even better when it is chilled?"
"Some people will sprinkle salt on the melon flesh to make it sweeter." Lu Yu said, "In short, it is indeed a treasure. I didn't expect that the merchants in Tanya would sell such good seeds to us..."
Lu Yu watched Lulu grinning and chewing another piece of melon rind, and said happily: "She is always so generous."
"I hope she will always be so generous."
