Chapter 604 600 You Are a Summoner, I Am Also a Summoner, We Are Mutually

Chapter 604 600. You are a summoner and I am a summoner. We are each other.

Mei Qiu, who said goodbye to the caravan and set out on the journey again, relied on the old man's reminder to see the village on the edge of the scorching sand on the third day after leaving.

The influence left by Vanessa back then is still there, and many people still speak the Kolay language that Lu Yu is familiar with, which makes communication a lot easier.

During this period, Lu Yu also noticed that even people living in such a remote place had modified their limbs to a certain extent. The young man who pointed them in the direction of the Selkaro Kingdom had an arm with a metallic luster. , and seems to be inlaid with elemental material similar to flint.

"Are you talking about this?" The young man raised his arm and smiled, "This is a necessary transformation in order to be able to go deep into the flaming sand to collect rare fire attribute sand crystals."

"Oh? It seems that your magic power is not full. Can these arms withstand the high temperature released by those natural sand crystals?"

"It's not all-powerful, but it at least gives us a chance to try. As long as I accumulate enough funds, I can upgrade the puppet master to get more opportunities to go deep into the Flame Sand." The young man seemed to be very satisfied with his choice. Satisfied, "I didn't sign a lease contract, but saved up money to buy it. I have far more room for error than others."

"lease?"

"You seem to be from another country, so it's normal that you don't know. Wherever the Selkalo Puppet Masters Association reaches, there will be puppet masters who recommend modification packages to the modifiers in the area. If you can't afford such a price temporarily, A sum of money doesn't matter, the puppeteers will first provide you with transformation services in the form of a contract, and then let you repay it over a certain period of time. Of course, this amount is naturally more expensive than a buyout. "

Lu Yu smelled a familiar smell... As a time traveler, he knew very well what these packages meant.

Although some countries within the radius of the huge civilization of Mela have demonstrated advanced commercial systems, they are still immature overall, but here...

The puppeteers are not afraid of these people skipping the job at all. They are the only ones who can provide transformation for this group of people. And according to the different techniques used, the high level of skills, and the level of materials, the degree of completion of the transformation can be infinitely subdivided. Not to mention that over time, they will also need to maintain the doll's body.

There is no escape, as long as they transform, they are destined to deal with the puppet master.

"My good boy, it's great that you can save money for a renovation. Mom is proud of you, but... what about future maintenance?"

The young man's mother was gray-haired and half-blind. She sat under the eaves and watched the young man showing off his proud arms to Lu Yu, feeling worried.

"Mother, I will definitely be able to earn enough money before then. Since I can be transformed without relying on outsiders, I will naturally be better than them."

The son's words made the old mother still frown. During the conversation, the young man kept persuading his mother to accept the transformation so that she could at least have good eyesight and strong limbs, but the old mother shook her head firmly. .

Different from the reformers are the "natives" who do not accept the transformation of puppets at all. They resist all modifications to their original limbs. They are a conservative force that has remained since the rise of the Selkalo puppet masters. However, with the rise of the puppet masters, With the continuous changes in technology and the huge changes brought about by the tide of magic, these old-fashioned people were gradually derided as "useless" by the Selkaros, and gradually became rare.

Those who undergo transformation can allow people in their sixties or seventies to still have the productivity of natives when they were young. The difference among people of the same age is several times greater.

Without transformation, you will not be able to find a job or survive. This is the portrayal of various places after the expansion of the Selkalo Puppet Masters Association. Lu Yu can see this in every village he passed on his way to the large city-state of Selkalo, in the sparsely populated wilderness. I saw people who had modified their bodies moving around, and occasionally there were a few who could not see any obvious signs of modification. After questioning, I was surprised to find that they had used better technology and materials, which made them less obvious.

As a puppet master, Sera felt a little shocked. This was a path that the puppet masters in the surrounding areas of Mera had never chosen. After all, they had always followed pure spiritual body-changing, not "Theseus". ship".

"You can't do it?" Lu Yu asked curiously.

Sierra didn't choke Lu Yu, but explained seriously: "Do you remember the doctor who came when Laurende was seriously ill?"

Lu Yu had an impression: "He seems to want... to change his mind?"

"Not only does he change hearts, he is also an excellent puppet master. The reason why he turned into a doctor was to discover some ways of body modification, but in general, this technology is not popular around Meira." Serra Said, "Whether it's Clarence or Vanessa, you will find that they tend to be more 'whole' rather than 'assembled'."

"Although in terms of results, the ultimate goal of both is to extend life and immortality, but once the technology of 'integration' matures, it means physical freedom, with more emphasis on the spiritual body, while 'assembly' will go through a process of becoming nondescript The process..."

"Okay, I roughly understand. One is to overcome all difficulties and push the door. The other is to climb the long and painful stairs step by step and make sufficient preparations for the ceremony. So it means you are not good at it?"

After a brief silence, Sera hummed softly: "There are specialties in the art industry."

In fact, Lu Yu was just curious, but Sera seemed a little anxious. She immediately added: "The rejection of the original body by the assembled body is different from the problem that the whole body needs to face, so we need to look at it dialectically."

Lu Yu and Lulu said in unison: "I understand. As the first puppet master to open the door to immortality, you can definitely do it."

For such a long sentence, the two people's tone, intonation, and speed are exactly the same, as if the sound track overlaps, and the tacit understanding is explosive.

A burning heat suddenly arose in the coal ball, and someone blushed.

Sera, who is particularly strong in her own field, is very interesting to tease. This is the consensus of Lu Yu and Lulu.

At this critical moment when a new topic needs to be opened, a rhinoceros beast about two stories high rushed forward, knocking down the trees along the way with a crushing force, and rushed straight to the coal ball. His body was covered with arrow feathers, blood was pouring, and his eyes were bloodshot.

To deal with this kind of monster, Lulu usually goes on the stage, while Lu Yu and Sera hang on. When two tentacles with red light penetrated into the rhino's head, they heard a shrill wail.

The flame tentacles that penetrated into the brain ignited the rhino's head, and even the towering rhino horns melted like wax under the high temperature. His heavy body fell to the ground dully in the next second, becoming a piece of dead meat that could no longer move.

"Is the meat of this rhino delicious?"

Sera reminded: "Although it is disappointing, maybe we can't confirm whether the meat is delicious. Someone is approaching here, very fast, at least five people."

After Lulu put away the tentacles, a gray-brown skinned long-eared female elf jumping on the trees, holding a short sword and carrying a longbow appeared in their sight. She first looked at the rhino on the ground that was dead and could not die anymore, and then moved her sight to Coal Ball. The deep purple eyes made Coal Ball look like he was looking at a crystal clear magic-forbidden crystal.

Following closely, the other four people sensed by Sera also appeared in front of Meiqiu.

Based on the attire, Lu Yu could confirm that this was a hunting team composed of archers, great sword warriors, elemental magicians, healers, and summoners.

It should be said that if this team replaced the weapons of the great sword warriors with shields, Lu Yu would think that this would be an excellent team that would kill instinctively.

The vigilance of encountering strangers in the wild was reflected on each of their faces, but it quickly disappeared with the advantage of numbers.

"Horn... horn is gone!"

"The head is gone... brain is gone!"

Two screams drew everyone's attention back to Meiqiu, and the hunting team found that the rhino's head was burned by Lulu and no longer existed, leaving only a melted and deformed rhino horn. The disappointment was visible to the naked eye.

"Why do you do this, you guy!"

The male elemental mage was about to step forward with a staff, and with him was a female summoner carrying a flaming python. The two of them had a tendency to mobilize magic.

Coal Ball is not an unreasonable person. He knows that these adventurers often make a lot of efforts to make a living, so he doesn't care and calmly explains: "It rushed straight towards me. I can't just do nothing, right?"

"Don't you know that the top three precious things of the Heavy Rock Rhinoceros are the horn, skull, and brain! You did it on purpose. You don't want others to get it if you can't get it yourself!"

"I have always treated monsters I don't know by destroying their heads first. This is instinct."

As the summoner's face showed obvious anger, the fire python immediately bared its teeth at Lu Yu.

"Kno, Celisa, calm down."

The gray-brown-skinned female elf stood up and pulled the two teammates who were a little out of control.

"How can you ask me to calm down? We have been hiding for seven days. During this period, we have offended many people in order to avoid being discovered by other hunting teams. Now the three most important trophies have turned into ashes... Don't forget that the rhino horn and brain are necessary rewards for his help in upgrading and transformation. There is no way to avoid it."

"We finally have hope, but now we have nothing. Won't we be trampled on by those disgusting guys when we go back!"

The big sword warrior named Kno suddenly thrust the weapon in his hand into the ground and waved his fist angrily.

"At least we have the harvest of the body."

"The harvest of the body will not allow him to upgrade us exceptionally."

"Without him, can't we find other puppet masters? Are you sure about him?" The gray elf's tone was also mixed with anger.

Hearing their companions get angry, Kno and Celisa restrained their hostility towards Lu Yu and began to cut the important parts of the rhino beast.

As the calmest person in the team, the gray elf introduced himself to Coal Ball: "Hello, my name is Heroula, the shooter and the second summoner in the team. What's your name?"

"You can call me Bass."

This aquatic name made Heroula stunned for a few seconds. She turned her head helplessly and looked at the headless body of the rhino: "I can understand that you suddenly encountered the rhino's full-strength attack. If it were me, I would do the same when I was at a loss, but... As you can see, we suffered a lot of losses, so I hope you can compensate us a little."

"That's enough, Heroula, look at his tattered clothes, his dusty appearance, and he didn't even want to replace his mask with cracks. What's the point of talking to a poor guy? Just admit your bad luck."

"Selisa!"

"You can be angry, I'm telling the truth, do you think he can afford the loss? This is the stepping stone for me and Kno to upgrade and transform our bodies."

"You are the one who is always bothering me. You are obsessed with that puppeteer. Now shut up!" Heroula turned around and scolded again.

Celisa snorted sullenly, lowered her head and continued to work.

"Are you the captain of this team?"

"Uh... that's not the case. Primo, who is in charge of treatment, is the captain."

Lu Yu, who asked a question off topic, took the initiative to mention the topic of compensation: "I recognize your hunting efforts, but I really don't have anything to compensate you..."

"Look, I'm right."

Facing Celisa's interruption, Lu Yu swallowed the sentence "I may be able to give you some corresponding knowledge and experience".

Thanks to her tone, Meiqiu's guilt was alleviated.

Meiqiu didn't quite understand why his teammates were busy negotiating in the front, while he kept sabotaging in the back. Can pure venting of emotions help the development of things?

After all, he killed the prey. There is no first come first served in the wild. They should be thankful that he was considerate of their embarrassment and was willing to acknowledge the ownership of the prey instead of walking away.

Heroula is a smart person. She tried to minimize the loss politely through words at the first time, otherwise Lu Yu would have changed his mind now.

"Where can I find this kind of rhinoceros?"

"Do you want to hunt alone?" Heroula still reminded politely, "You see, a team like us with an average of six levels needs to prepare in advance and consume a lot to succeed..."

"It seems to be just a matter of strength difference. You can tell me where they are and I will solve the problem." Lu Yu said.

As soon as the voice fell, almost every team member except Heroula looked at Lu Yu with strange eyes.

Coal Ball could understand this look: "What nonsense is he talking about."

"Rhinoceros beasts don't live in groups, and their appearance locations are not fixed... After all, they live underground, and it is difficult to track them."

The first solution was rejected. Lu Yu thought about it for a moment, followed Sera's advice, and asked: "Where is the nearest city-state? I need some tools, and I can naturally compensate you then."

"If you really want to compensate for our losses, you might as well go with us. It just so happens that we also want to take the rhinoceros beast materials back to sell."

Lu Yu readily agreed, and this reaction made the other people in the team feel awkward.

"Does he really think he can compensate?"

"Does he really not know the value of the rhinoceros beast three-piece set?"

Amidst the rustling, the team set off again. Lu Yu did not act as an eyesore, but silently followed behind the hunting team.

Heroula, who could see that Lu Yu was not a local, also lagged behind the team. She curiously asked Lu Yu where he was from. After getting a vague answer, she immediately received Lu Yu's intensive question bombardment, covering all aspects of Selcarlo and puppets.

After answering many questions in succession, Coal Ball asked curiously: "They all seem to have been transformed. What about you? What have you transformed?"

Herola touched her bow and smiled: "I am a native. I am very satisfied with my body. If possible, I would like to spend my life in this posture instead of being modified as a tool."

After a pause, she couldn't help asking: "Mr. Perch, are you really willing to compensate for our losses? It's not too late to regret now. Once you enter the city-state, they will take it seriously."

"If it weren't for your tone of voice and your identity as a summoner that interested me, I might have left." Lu Yu said, "Of course, I have some selfish thoughts now."

"The questions and answers just now made us unanimously decide that we should find someone familiar with Selcarlo to be our guide. I think you, a local expert, are very suitable."

Herola blinked. She didn't quite understand the meaning of "we", but it didn't matter.

"Guide? Can I ask why Mr. Perch is interested in summoners? Are you also a summoner?" Heroula asked curiously, "I only entered this school after the Summoning Resurrection, you are not the same, are you?"

"Almost, I also became a summoner during the Summoning Resurrection."

Heroula laughed and said, "Then we are the same."

I am going back to my hometown to worship my ancestors today. I don't know if I can update in time. If there is no message tonight, it will be regarded as a default leave.
