Chapter 618 614. Don’t let the monster think the ceremony is fake
The Tsing Yis of the Puppet Masters Association did not continue to entangle with Lu Yu, and those crazy words were considered to be stress caused by fear after encountering the assassination.
The so-called ability to flip the table is a bit confusing. In Selkalo, the Supreme Puppet Masters stand on the top of the mountain, overlooking all things. Their puppet skills are already close to those of the legendary gods. If you have not seen those ingenious creations, , how can so many people be willing to follow?
However, they still complied with Lu Yu's request. All the materials on the list were quickly prepared and sent to the manor. However, in just over a day, what kind of potion could he make? The puppeteers were skeptical.
But many people are happy to see him take care of everything, so that when Gaglan's Doll Association explains to the superiors, "it was his refusal that caused the situation to worsen."
The scene soon appeared in the secret meeting workshop in Selkaro. As the highest level of the secret meeting, the black-clothed people browsed the report, asked Gaglan's green clothes, and then fell into collective silence.
"Check it out slowly." I don't know who said it, setting the tone of the investigation for this matter.
This voice that broke the silence received the collective approval of the black men on duty.
Lu Yu didn't know what happened in the secret meeting. Looking at the white fish belly in the sky, watching the morning light piercing the darkness before dawn, Mei Qiu already had a plan in his heart. As long as Cerkalo didn't respond, he would will be implemented.
"Teacher, I'm so hungry..." Herola, who had just been poisoned, was lying on the bench in the garden, her stomach growling.
As a price for Lu Yu's offending the puppet masters, they "thoroughly investigated the food supply chain" on the grounds of protecting the contestants. Therefore, they did not reissue last night's food, and even the meals that should have been delivered in the morning were missing.
Lu Yu knew all this well. He stretched out his tentacles and patted Herola's head: "Whatever you want to eat, the teacher will make it for you."
Herola subconsciously asked for the menu, but then she thought about it... Whether it was the issue of ordering her teacher or the teacher's craftsmanship, it seemed that it was worth pondering.
"Quiet Garden."
"A moment!"
The morning glory squirming in the darkness appeared together with Xu Mo.
"Protect them. I actually don't trust the dolls too much."
Lu Yu gathered all the puppets in the manor last night and faced the wall together. Even the magic circles in the manor were closed by him, eliminating any possibility of spying and obtaining inside information.
Although he felt that the group of people had the courage to initiate a poisoning, it was powerful enough, and they would not be crazy enough to instruct the puppets to assassinate them. However, the three coal ball people had seen too many crazy people, and they felt that it was too crazy to be possible. Implementation is just the arrogance of rational people, and not playing by common sense is the main tone of this chaotic world.
Herola had a special liking for mutton, but as a piggy bank, she would only reward herself symbolically a few times a year. Thinking of this, Lu Yu became more and more curious about what she was saving money for.
Lu Yu, who was wandering in the morning market, quickly selected the freshly slaughtered lamb. The mutton feast that was discarded after the frightening moment last night should be continued.
"Dear guest, are you hosting a banquet for friends? Do you want some other ingredients besides the whole lamb? I can introduce you to some merchants who sell fresh ingredients with good quality and low price." The mutton stall owner enthusiastically offered his companions Creating business opportunities.
Seeing Lu Yu's interest, he quickly asked: "I don't know what dishes your guests prefer. Give me a list and I can help you more."
"them……"
Lu Yu paused, the stall owner's words echoed in his mind, and a detail that he ignored suddenly flashed across. The whole sheep suspended in the air by magic was still bleeding. With the drop of scarlet in his field of vision, it fell to the ground. Splashing, his sight was focused again.
"Mushroom soup, mutton, Herola and I's preferences..."
Sera also noticed something strange: "All the dishes that night were manipulated and not provided randomly, but the dishes that Herola and we were poisoned happened to be what we like to eat... The person who poisoned us knew our preferences? Herola doesn’t have many friends, and she only eats mutton a few times a year, and we only eat it alone. Needless to say, we haven’t been here long, who would have known that we like mushroom soup?”
Seeing that Lu Yu had already set off, both Sera and Lulu knew that he had the answer.
When they came outside a familiar tavern, a group of drunk people just happened to help each other out. The streets of Gegelan were empty in the early morning. They staggered on the bluestone road and kept chattering.
Six or seven people turned into an alley, and their voices began to echo in the quiet space.
"She... deserves it... don't touch me, I... Hier, I'm not drunk."
"She just... deserves... to be targeted."
Someone echoed: "That's right, that's right, people want information and sell it...with bad intentions...what's the matter, it's none of our business, you can't make money, you bastard."
"The guy who is digging at Sosou is lucky, can talk, and just leans on his lap... He really thinks he is a person, just a native."
"Forget it, just say a few words, exchange the coins, and let's squat outside for a while. I heard that those people violated the supreme iron law, and I don't know if it will implicate us."
"It's implicated. Who cares about little people like us?" He smiled wildly, "Aren't we allowed to discuss eating and drinking normally?"
A whole sheep fell from the sky, fell heavily to the ground, and was disemboweled. The still bleeding body made the drunken group hesitate at first, and then became alert.
"What...who is that person!"
Seeing Lu Yu falling in the air, everyone's face, which was red due to drunkenness, suddenly changed, with white and green alternating.
"Keep talking, I still want to hear it." Lu Yu said calmly, "Why don't you say anything? Is it because you're sober and don't have the courage, or do you only dare to talk behind your back and don't dare to speak directly to your face?"
There was another moment of silence, but the entire adventure group was already on alert.
"Kenuo, Selisa, to be honest, I don't have a good impression of you. There is a saying that the first impression is extremely important. Our first encounter cannot be said to be wonderful. I still clearly remember your accusations against me. , your sarcasm and biting sarcasm are still harsh.”
Perhaps because the alcohol was still taking effect, Keno couldn't help but choke his neck and stammered: "What, what, do you think you are justified in destroying other people's material?"
Lu Yu chuckled and did not answer directly, but kept talking to himself.
"I was in a good mood at the time. I haven't been this relaxed for a long time, so I am willing to ignore your rude requests, and am willing to sympathize and pity you adventurers who are risking life and death for their livelihood and income. On you, I project my past Another group of adventurers I have met, they are hard-working, kind, grateful, and united to help each other. My encounter with them was wonderful. "
"The other person thought of his parents, and the last one graciously chose not to care."
"You passed the first round of voting with us very safely."
"but……"
There was a chill in Lu Yu's calm tone, and in the quiet alley, his voice echoed like the devil's voice in a bard's story.
"This is consideration, mercy, charity, and my self-control as a strong man. You have never been qualified to bargain with me.
"The so-called destruction of materials can also be understood to mean that your hunting skills are not good and you almost killed others? You didn't criticize me, a passerby, for doing extremely evil things. Aren't you also afraid that Herola in the team was an outsider and had a weak mouth? "
"You are using strong words to make sense!"
"Strong words?" Lu Yu smiled, "The principles in this world have always been spoken by the strong, and the weak listen. Only those that I think make sense are reasonable. Those that I think don't are all rubbish. What qualifications do you have to defend me?" definition?"
The unkindness in Lu Yu's words was palpable, and everyone felt the imminent crisis.
Selisa warned: "Private fights are prohibited in Gegelan City. Violators will be expelled from the city-state, and your promotion quota will also be cancelled."
"Actually, I don't feel any offense to you. I have seen too many villains like you. They are like bugs and are not worth caring about." Lu Yu said in a deep voice, "But my apprentice has been affected. You have to pay for it." Pay the price for the information you leaked.”
"How do I know what those people wanted to do when they asked me those things?"
"If I hadn't heard your drunken chatter just now, if I had a better impression of you, if I was still willing to control myself, I would be willing to believe your excuse. But you also said it, you know, and you guessed it. Their intentions, but you also want them to do it...because what you can't get, you don't want others to get, even if this person once told me proudly that he has a good taste in people."
"Unfortunately, she made a mistake this time, but as her teacher, I think this lesson is necessary. With you as a lesson learned, she will be more cautious in the future and wipe her eyes brighter."
"You are expressing your anger!"
"You can comfort yourself to vent your anger. I won't refute. I said it, I don't care about being judged by you, let alone your definition. It's your freedom to hate me, but don't let me hear it, otherwise..."
The shaping elemental wind appeared. His small figure had been as tall as Lu Yu from unknown time, and his wingspan was enough to completely wrap Lu Yu.
"Little Manta, cut off their modified prosthetics."
Without any resistance, everyone in the team was wrapped in a vortex, and the razor-like wind blade accurately cut off their modified limbs. In an instant, they fell to the ground with their mutilated bodies.
Seeing their prosthetic body being blown into the air by the vortex and being smashed into pieces by the waving wings of the manta ray, all the members of the adventure group let out miserable screams.
The strength they had just gained through hard work and continuous hunting was wiped out in the blink of an eye. How could this incomplete body obtain wealth to make up for its damaged body?
Despair made them furious, and they all stared at Lu Yu with red eyes.
"It won't be easy for you. If you violate the rules, you will be removed from the list of promotions!"
Lu Yu said jokingly: "It seems that my self-control gave you the wonderful idea that I dare not kill anyone."
"You...you dare."
"Why not? That Miss Rabbit who once showed you kindness didn't say anything to stop it."
This sentence was extremely cold and incomprehensible to all members of the adventure group.
The sound of dense footsteps sounded, and the morning light finally rushed into the cold alley. The light shone on the arriving guards. The leader was stunned for a moment when he saw the promotion sign on Lu Yu's clothes, and quickly called his companions. Soon, Qing Yi from the association appeared on the scene.
"That's him, he broke the rules, expel him, disqualify him."
Lu Yu glanced at him, and the manta ray's wind blade passed over Keno's fingers. After a miserable howl, he lost all his fingers.
The killing shocked the association's Qingyi. They were angry at the contempt for the Supreme Iron Law of Selcarlo. During the trial, they could not make a decision on their own, so they could only send Lu Yu back to the manor and report it.
Before leaving, Lu Yu passed by Kno and said coldly: "Do you believe it now? You can live, and you should be grateful that the strong man you met was a calm me, not other monsters."
After being sent back to the manor, the association's Qingyi sent a large number of puppets and magicians to surround the manor, trying to prevent Lu Yu from taking the opportunity to escape.
Lu Yu didn't care. He calmly grilled lamb chops and prepared various dishes. His skilled technique made the weak Heroura's eyes widen. Although you should question it before eating it... but it's really delicious.
The lamb that was constantly turned over gradually turned golden in color. Lu Yu, who was smeared with sauce, felt a strange fluctuation of magic. Coal Ball and the three people smiled slightly in the chat room.
"Xu Yu, you take over for a while, I'm going to talk to a friend."
Just when he arrived near the area where the puppets in the manor were facing the wall, Meiqiu bumped into a puppet that suddenly moved for some reason.
"You defied the rules and injured people in the prohibited fighting area for no reason during the trial. Why?"
"I want fairness for them."
"What fairness?"
"Fairness given by the rules." Lu Yu said, "The trial participants were poisoned, and the perpetrators were at large. I don't like it. I have no connections here and I can't move forward. I think someone should come forward to solve the problem for me."
"Interesting..." the puppet murmured.
"In my hometown, there is a story about a very vicious but intelligent monster that appeared near a town. The warriors of the nearby city-states were no match for it and could only let it destroy them. The monster was about to approach the town. At this time, a wise man stood up and organized all the townspeople to hold a very grand and complicated ceremony."
"Even though they had realized that the monster was lurking nearby, the whole ceremony was still carried out in an orderly manner. They were worshiping a god that did not exist at all, but the monster chose to leave soon after stopping to watch."
"Interesting story."
"Yes, I think so too." Lu Yu said, "That The ritual that cannot lead to the correct god is complicated and mysterious, but useless, just like the Supreme Iron Law at this moment. People at the top of the Supreme Iron Law know that someone below is corrupt and doing evil, but as long as everything is intact and stable, they will not care too much. "But unfortunately, if the monster sees that this ritual is fake, he will not hesitate, nor will he enjoy this leisure time peacefully. "Lu Yu said meaningfully: "Maybe there are monsters watching Geglan." "I like this story. You are an interesting person and make me feel satisfied." He said in a neutral voice that could not be heard of gender: "I wish you a good appetite." After the conversation, the puppet was stagnant. He did not introduce himself, and Lu Yu did not ask. The conversation was completed tacitly, as if everyone knew who the other party was. ... ... ... Late at night, the ancient bronze bells in the secret meeting workshop rang together, and the magnificent and loud sound filled the empty space. "Gegran, investigate the assassination of the promoted person thoroughly."
The man in black on duty at the secret meeting shuddered when he heard the message from the Supreme.
"You didn't report it."
"We are very dissatisfied."
The man in black who proposed to "check slowly" and did not exaggerate the seriousness of the matter was sweating profusely. He wiped the sweat off his forehead with trembling hands until the sound of the bell stopped.
The blasphemy of the Supreme Iron Law can be big or small. Similar vicious incidents have happened in the past, but the Supreme has never asked about it. It is always handled by the secret meeting personally. For a long time in the past, the secret meeting has been given a lot of power by the Supreme, which has also led to many problems under the secret meeting in recent years.
Why did the Supreme suddenly speak out about this matter?
Did the Supreme know who was secretly making trouble and hoped to do something with this as an excuse?
Did the Supreme intend to knock on the so-called "capital" of the self-proclaimed emerging families who have been over-expanding in recent years?
Or let the secret meeting feel his unpredictable power?
No one knows, but no one dares to disobey the order of the Supreme in Serkalo. Even if it is a small matter, it must be handled by the secret meeting in person.
Sorry for coming back late from overtime
