Chapter 89 88 A Life-Threatening Question but No Life-Threatening

Chapter 89 88. Life-threatening questions or not

Boone clenched the steel knife in his hand, licked his dry lips, and walked on tiptoe in the wet woodland before dawn.

The fog was thick, but Boone seemed to know the terrain and walked in the rugged woodland.

His perception was very strong, and he found Lu Yu and his group resting under a tree not far away from him.

After observing for a while, Boone confirmed that no one was on guard and the four targets were all there.

After leading his companions to his side, the seven people looked at Lu Yu's bulging backpack, and only greed remained in their eyes.

Boone and Lu Yu just met by chance.

Boone's team, who were hunting monsters in the jungle, accidentally ran into Lu Yu. After confirming each other, the two sides restrained their hostility and exchanged a little.

When Lu Yu asked whether the direction of the king's capital was correct, Boone told him the truth.

Originally, the intersection between the two ended here. Boone continued to complete the commission of hunting monsters, and Lu Yu continued on his own way.

However, adventurers occasionally make some extra money besides commissions.

Killing monsters can earn bounties, and killing people can get equipment. You can make money anyway, so naturally some people will go astray.

Through a brief contact, the magician in the team carefully tested Lu Yu and found that his magic power was very scarce. At first glance, he was not a powerful character, but more like a novice.

Boone didn't actually have any extra thoughts at this time, but the team members discussed the bulging backpacks on Lu Yu and Sigrid's backs in a few words.

What's in the backpack?

Heavy currency?

Valuable jewelry?

A wide variety of scrolls and books that can be sold to merchants?

Well-made clothes?

No matter what it is, they can always use it.

"Look at the clothes they are wearing. They look very new. Their boots look so sturdy. Captain, don't you always say that boots hurt your feet? Why don't you try his?"

Once some ideas emerge, they will be hard to get rid of.

Boone gave up hunting monsters and confirmed his new prey.

As Mithril adventurers, they have experienced blood baptism, so they know that such things must be done carefully and cautiously.

Therefore, Boone did not chase him immediately, but waited for Lu Yu to walk a long distance before tracking him based on the footprints on the ground.

Even after confirming that Lu Yu and his party had camped and slept, they had no intention of taking action, but rested on the spot to ensure that they had enough physical strength to deal with any emergencies.

For Lu Yu, he must be killed with one strike.

As long as the summoner dies, the summoned creature will disappear because of the loss of the contract object.

As for Sigrid, although some people in the team expressed that they had special needs, Boone still arranged to kill her.

He would rather give this idiot more spoils and let him find a place to vent himself in the capital. In such a place, if they were caught by someone, they would not be able to ensure that they could kill another team.

After recuperating, Boone assigned tasks to everyone again.

Two people were responsible for intercepting the two summons, two were responsible for attacking Lu Yu, two were responsible for killing Sigrid, and one was responsible for providing amplification magic for everyone.

Seeing that the fog had become thicker, Boone, who was afraid that there would be a mistake in the action and Lu Yu and his party could escape through the fog, felt that there was no time to lose and the raid began!

The six people accelerated by the wind magic rushed to the place where Lu Yu camped in an instant. The wind blew out the campfire and brought a puff of dust.

Lu Yu, who woke up from his dream, commanded the black fog and white fog to pounce on Boone.

Boone dodged with a flash, letting his companion bear the attack of the summons, and he and another person killed Lu Yu.

Seeing the unconcealable fear in Lu Yu's eyes, Boone cut his throat with a knife without letting him shout.

Summoners are like this. They are too fragile. If the summons fail to play a role in time, there is basically no second chance.

Looking at Lu Yu who fell to the ground unwillingly, Boone said: "If there is an afterlife, remember to be more careful."

The battle on Sigrid's side was also over. She was unable to defend against the cold arrows with two fists and was shot through the heart by an arrow.

Not caring about the two bodies on the ground, the seven people quickly came to the backpacks.

Opening the backpacks, everyone's eyes were straight.

One backpack was full of granular gold, and the other backpack was full of various jewelry.

"We are rich, we are rich!"

"Oh my God, what do these two people do, why do they take so much money on the road?"

"I'm not dreaming, it's heavy, hahahaha, no matter what they do, these are all ours!"

"Don't make a fuss, these two people can carry so much money out, their identities must be not simple, we must deal with the scene quickly."

"Also, quickly check if there are any identity tags on these two people to see if you can find out who they are."

Boone was also ecstatic when he saw the money, but he was already sweating at this moment.

Gold, even in the Gran Empire, is a currency used by nobles and big merchants. Ordinary people can only use silver coins.

This man has a full backpack...

Wait a minute...

A backpack?

No, where does he get the strength to carry this weight of gold? How can this backpack bear this weight!

Boone turned his head and looked at the bodies of Lu Yu and Sigrid.

The companion who coveted Sigrid was searching everywhere, and at this moment, his chest was suddenly pierced, and he fell to the ground without even a cry.

The throat was cut by a sharp blade, and blood gushed out.

The body was pierced by a black object that appeared out of thin air.

One by one, the companions fell down inexplicably.

Boone was stiff all over, and his years of fighting experience made him realize what happened.

However, it was too late, the sharp blade pierced from behind and broke out of his chest.

"When..."

"Mr. Boone, isn't it good to hunt monsters? Why do you want to hurt people?"

Lu Yu twisted the handle of the knife hard, turned it a circle, and completely cut off Boone's life.

The seven corpses were gathered together by Lu Yu, and Sigrid poured phosphorus powder on them and ignited them.

In the blazing fire, the corpses gradually turned into ashes.

Ever since the fog demon joined the team, she has been responsible for keeping watch when resting in the wild, not for anything else, just for the short foggy time from dawn to early morning.

Boone's caution did prevent Lu Yu from noticing anything unusual, but as luck would have it, a thick fog rose in the dense forest last night.

When the fog demon was traveling in the sea of ​​fog, it immediately sensed Boone and his group following him stealthily.

Seven mithril-level adventurers quietly approached Lu Yu in the thick fog, not knowing that they had already been deeply in the fog demon's illusion, nor that Lu Yu had long been reminded by the fog demon and was planning to watch a big show.

When Boone and his men rushed up to kill, Lu Yu and his group stood aside.

Lu Yu watched these people slashing at the air with fierce expressions, throwing magic at the mounds of earth desperately, and shouting that they had made a fortune one by one, and he really wanted to know what they saw.

At the same time, he also knew how ridiculous he was from the fog demon's perspective when he fell into the fog demon's illusion.

Looking at these adventurers holding up the soil and shouting that they had found gold and jewels, Lu Yu shook his head helplessly.

His backpack was filled with dangerous items and daily necessities, not gold. The only valuable items were some equivalents that could be exchanged in Yas.

Originally, Lu Yu planned to watch for a while before sending these bandits who had ill intentions towards him to death, but Sigrid couldn't help it.

She saw someone stroking the stone on the ground and shouting her name.

That expression, those moving hands... Sigrid punched without thinking.

Lu Yu could understand Sigrid's excitement very well. After all, this scene would remind her of the time when she was locked in a cage as a commodity.

The fog monster, who had made great contributions, swayed in front of everyone, swaying back and forth, and the big eyes after the anthropomorphism were blinking, and the desire was all written on them.

"Good, good, you did a good job!"

Lu Yu applauded, making the fog monster happily imitate Lu Yu's actions and clap his hands.

After Lu Yu finished praising, Sigrid praised, and after Sigrid praised, Lulutis praised... Although it was no different from Lu Yu's own praise, the fog demon just wanted to listen.

The proud and complacent fog demon kept changing his shape when he set off again, boasting about how realistic his illusion was, and a group of adventurers holding mithril cards couldn't even notice it.

Lu Yu was very tactful and didn't interrupt the fog demon's boasting. This child hasn't shown herself well since leaving Hogu. It's hard to catch this opportunity to show off, so let her enjoy it.

"Lulu, I had a question for you before."

"Then ask it."

It has become a daily routine for Lulutis to answer Lu Yu's strange questions.

"Who is stronger, you or Rabbit?"

Lu Yu suddenly felt a chill on his shoulder.

"Of course it's me. I'm a genius magician, the youngest seventh-level magician in the Mera Continent."

"I know all these titles of yours. What I'm actually asking is... who has a better chance of winning if you and Rabbit fight?"

"Why did you think of asking this?" Lulutis asked.

Lu Yu confessed: "Didn't you introduce me to the things about magicians fighting beyond their ranks before? In addition, you also said before that the two indicators of magician rank assessment cannot actually correspond to strength."

"So I'm very curious, who is stronger between you and Rabbit if we don't compare ranks?"

Lulu said "Oh" and answered after a long time: "Of course it's me. Genius Lulu can always find a way to deal with Rabbit."

Lu Yu always felt that Lulutis's answer was guilty and not very confident.

Just when Lu Yu was about to end the conversation and ask something else, Lulutis spoke again.

"Forget it, I admit that Rabbit has a better chance of winning."

The proud Lulutis did not allow self-deception to happen to her.

Moreover, she did not want to lie to Lu Yu.

Wait, there's another one.
