Chapter 142 141 Four Clans, Aliens

Chapter 142 141. Four tribes, alien races

The complex terrain of the wetland, the current hot weather, the harsh environment, and the lack of language with the local races all made it impossible for Lu Yu to find traces of the existence of intelligent races.

But this time, there is no need to look for it.

Not long after the earth wall was repaired, Lu Yu welcomed guests.

About a dozen lizardmen came out of the rainforest in the distance on the fifth day after the monsters attacked the city, and were just observed by the fog monster floating above the earth wall.

Holding metal shields and weapons, it proves that they can smelt metal to a certain extent.

The lizardman holding a staff in the lead has a strange feather decoration on his head, which is gorgeous enough for any sniper to choose him as the first sniper target.

However, this also proves that there are some special decorations in the lizardman group to show their status and strengthen their authority.

Originally, Lu Yu was still thinking whether the lizardmen had a low level of intelligence, which was about the same as that of mushroom people. They were basically in the most primitive stage of exploration in the use of tools and magic, and only because of their high physical strength, they became a well-known race in the wetland.

Now this idea can be denied. These lizardmen are basically the same as humans. Maybe they already have their own writing and have entered the stage of recording knowledge through writing and pictures and passing it on.

Lu Yu did not block the mouth of the captured lizardman, so he kept howling after feeling the breath of his companions.

Someone in the lizardman team took a few steps forward after hearing his companions' call, as if he wanted to come directly to rescue, but was stopped by the lizardman holding a staff.

This lizardman with gorgeous feather decorations raised his staff and released a spell.

Too far away, Lulutis vaguely judged after a while that this might be a shield-type magic, and it was for the whole body.

"This behavior is really similar to yours."

Sigrid and the fog demon who climbed the wall to watch nodded repeatedly after hearing Lulutis's words.

Lu Yu sighed: "This proves that this lizard man is smart. When he encounters an enemy with unknown intentions and incomplete information, he prioritizes protecting his teammates. He is a qualified mage."

The lizard man mage stopped other companions from moving forward and slowly walked towards the earth wall alone.

His eyes moved back and forth between the white fog demon and the dark Lulutis on the earth wall. His eyes were sharp and a bit cunning.

The prisoner lizard man, who had been captured for five days and basically kept silent, called out with all his strength, but the response he got was the lizard man mage's harsh scolding.

Even though they didn't speak the same language, Lu Yu could feel the anger in his words. He didn't know whether he was scolding the prisoner lizard man for his poor performance or scolding him for shouting too much.

When he was about two hundred meters away from the earth wall, the lizard man mage stopped moving forward.

At this time, his eyes met Lu Yu's for the first time, and then Sigrid's.

This is a very strange look. If the eyes looking at Lulutis and the fog demon are a little scrutinizing and vigilant, then the eyes looking at Lu Yu and Sigrid are pure resentment and viciousness.

"He seems to hate you very much." Even Lulutis saw the change in the expression of the lizardman wizard, and poked Lu Yu's waist with his tentacles.

"Just now, the dead lizard yelled so loudly, I'm afraid he has already told the whole story." Lu Yu said, "We didn't give him a good result, so he must have complained hard."

It makes sense, but Lu Yu and Lulutis didn't regret teaching the stinky lizard a lesson in person.

It doesn't make sense that you brought a group of people to my servant's house, and I still have to serve you with good food and drink?

I didn't praise you on the spot because you are an intelligent race and you are still useful to me.

The lizardman wizard slammed the staff in his hand to the ground and slapped it with both hands.

The magic in the air was attracted by this action, and with the continuous slapping of the lizardman, waves of ripples spread out from the staff to the surroundings.

"Hmph, you are showing off your skills in front of an expert!"

Lulutis floated down the stone wall, and six or seven tentacles pierced into the ground.

Lu Yu didn't know what Lulutis was doing, but judging from her actions, it was estimated that the magic of the lizardman wizard was still threatening.

A dull explosion sounded from the ground, and after a slight shake, the lizardman wizard staggered back. He wanted to reach out to take back his staff, but he never thought that Lulutis was so fast.

Before Lu Yu could see what happened, Lulutis had already killed the lizardman wizard, and the tentacles swung hard, and the staff broke.

Before leaving, Lulutis did not forget to take out the magic core in the staff.

The lizardman mage trembled all over, and it took a long time for him to come back to his senses.

Looking at the broken staff on the ground, he hesitated for a moment, then returned to the other companions, stared at Lu Yu and Lu Lutis on the earth wall for a long time, and then disappeared in the rainforest.

The contact with the lizardman tribe started suddenly and ended suddenly, but Lu Lutis knew very well that this contact was just an appetizer, which was why she did not launch further attacks.

The magic core Lu Lutis brought back was from a fourth-level monster, and it was full of magic power, so it should have been hunted not long ago.

"The strength of the lizardman just now, according to the evaluation standards of the Mela Continent, is about the fine steel level."

"Fine steel level... not strong." The fog demon looked indifferent.

Lu Yu and Sigrid frowned.

The problem is not the level, but the magic core of the staff.

A steel-grade, third-grade lizardman who is comparable to a magician actually used a staff made of a fourth-grade magic core...

"Only those who can stably hunt fourth-grade monsters can be so extravagant." Lulutis said, "The magic he just cast in front of us is of earth attribute, which can mobilize the resonance of earth elements and cause the collapse of earth walls, which is a small-scale earthquake."

"Among low-level magicians, this kind of magic consumes a lot of magic power and is only effective in specific occasions. Generally, no one will cast magic with a long release time in front of the enemy in actual combat."

The behavior of the lizardman mage is a naked test.

The prisoner of war lizardman must have told him some information about Lulutis and Lu Yu, but the lizardman mage is very vigilant. He only believes in his own judgment, so he is willing to take risks to get the information.

This makes Lu Yu more certain of his inference.

Behind this lizardman mage is a large lizardman tribe. A steel-grade monster like him directly obeys the orders of the more powerful lizardman, so he will make a move that is very likely to kill himself on the spot.

What to do?

Yas, Gran, Soresen and Lu Yu all came here with a tiger's skin. They dealt with humans and could communicate.

Only by communicating can they mediate, and only by mediating can they make the disguised identity gain the greatest benefit for themselves.

But they don't speak the same language as the Lizardmen tribe. Once the conflict intensifies, they really have to fight...

Although Lulutis's body is strong enough, she has only recovered to the level of a third-level magician. According to her, her combat power can barely reach the fifth level.

In this way, as long as the Lizardmen tribe does not have monsters above the fifth level, Lu Yu and his party can still pass the test with good cooperation.

But what about the mushroom people?

Judging from the fact that the Lizardmen tribe drove monsters and beasts to attack the city together, their goal at the beginning was very clear, that is, to completely eliminate the mushroom people.

Lu Yu can run away if he can't beat them, but the mushroom people have nowhere to escape.

Lu Yu didn't know how the mushroom people offended the lizardmen. Before, the lizardmen obviously didn't even bother to look at the mushroom people. They were so arrogant, why would they kill the race they looked down on?

I don't know what news the prisoner lizard man got from his companions. Anyway, he is grinning now, and sticking out his tongue from time to time to scare the little mushrooms around him.

This arrogant behavior is not pleasing. Sigrid put on brass knuckles and planned to have some intimate physical communication with him and exchange their opinions in a friendly manner.

Lu Yu stopped her.

It's not that Lu Yu is soft-hearted, but they are about to ask the mushroom man something through the fog monster.

Lu Yu found mycelium and wrapped it around the lizard man's long mouth in circles, making the upper and lower jaws stick together, so that he can't even make a sound.

The prisoner lizard man who was physically silenced could only express his anger with his eyes, but Lu Yu was too lazy to pay attention to him.

The fog monster constantly presents various patterns by transforming into a lizard man.

The mushroom man, who already knows the meaning of nodding and shaking his head, relies on this method to give Lulutis some basic information.

First of all, it is possible that the mushroom man has never offended the lizard man.

Because as soon as the pattern of the lizard man slaughtering the mushroom man appeared, all the mushrooms shook their heads together.

When the lizardman emerged alone, they still shook their heads.

After repeated confirmation, Lulutis judged that the mushroom people only knew that there were lizardmen in the Great Wetlands, and had never dealt with them before. Their awe of the lizardmen came from word of mouth from other monsters.

These rumors left the mushroom people with the impression that the lizardmen were invincible.

It was obviously impossible to expect such a group of mushrooms chased by sharp-toothed flowers to make a move on the head of the wetland devil.

"It's not their problem, is it our problem?" The fog monster still said whatever he thought of.

Feeling the gaze of the crowd, the fog monster turned into a question mark.

"What are you doing..."

Lu Yu and others fell into a thinking error.

The mushroom people didn't know what gods looked like, they just prayed blindly, and finally worshipped them as gods.

Therefore, Lu Yu naturally felt that the monsters in the Great Wetlands had never seen humans, otherwise they would not worship the alien race.

The subtle gaze of the lizardman wizard...

Could it be that their real target was not the mushroom people at all?

Lu Yu and his party are the ones they want to deal with?

"No, no, this explanation doesn't make sense." Lu Lutis thought about it herself, "If the lizardmen have seen humans and are very hostile to humans, then they should have come to us from the beginning."

"On the night of the attack, the first target of the monsters was all mushroom people. How to explain this?"

Lu Yu and his party fell into deep confusion.

At the same time, in the rainforest at the other end of the wetland, in a wooden tent, the lizardman mage knelt in the center and just described what he saw and heard in the habitat of the mushroom people.

Four sturdy lizardmen, more than two meters tall, sat upright with the skins of unknown beasts on their shoulders, and listened carefully to everything.

The four lizardmen all wore strange monster bone pieces on their necks. When they digested the information and raised their heads to speak, the bone pieces would make a "da da" collision sound, as if there were souls that had not dispersed trembling.

"The leaders of the four tribes, our great lizardman warrior has fulfilled his duty. He faced the vicious, cruel and savage monsters. Although he complained, he remained brave."

The lizard man mage mentioned the captured lizard man and drew the intertwined gazes of the four large lizards to him.

"The tribe will not abandon him."

Realizing that the clan leaders were about to discuss something, the lizardman mage slowly exited the tent.

The leader of the lizardfolk who presided over this meeting was called Mudtail. He was the one who gave the order to the lizardfolk mage. He was also the one who sent the captured lizardfolk to the Mushroom Man habitat.

Mudtail shook his dirty tail that looked like it was covered in yellow mud and couldn't be cleaned at all and stood up.

"Now, you all heard it."

"Shattered Scale, Fire Scar, Brown Shield, do you have anything to say this time?"

Broken Scales, whose skin scales looked somewhat mottled, was a dark lizard. He remained silent.

There were scars on his chest that were burned by fire, and scales would no longer grow. He asked, "Is it the same as in the legend?"

Mudtail looked at Brownshield in the corner.

"The ancestors separated, multiplied, and formed different groups for various reasons... The patterns we inherited may not be as complete as Brown Shield's. After all, his ancestors claimed to have seen the real 'Alien God'."

The tan lizard man Brown Shield stared sideways at the other three clan leaders and spoke in a deep voice.

"Can't be sure."

"The patterns left by our ancestors were not vivid. The descriptions of monsters in the rainforest and the sudden glance failed to give him the 'real' wisdom behind his paintings."

Mudtail snorted in dissatisfaction and swung his tail irritably.

"What happened to the 'Blue Water' clan is enough to explain everything. The signs are the same now as they were then, and you are still here thinking about these trivial possibilities!"

Broken Scales said: "The blue water has been missing for hundreds of years and was submerged together with the unknown miracle. Maybe the gift comes with a price."

Niwei reminded: "Didn't you hear what my people said just now?"

"Towering walls, mushroom men who can use tools, weird technology and magic."

"If this is a miracle, a gift from an unknown god, then I will naturally just curl up and wait for the messenger to leave."

"However, they are just a group of unknown alien races. Their strength is not outstanding, but they rely on the knowledge they brought to give the mushroom people a family to grow."

"No matter what happened to Blue Water, we cannot sit back and watch the aliens cultivate a second 'faith' in the Great Wetland."

"Both the jungle god and the giant lizard god are watching us. This wetland that belongs to us will never allow alien beliefs to spread like a plague."
