Chapter 266 265 Black Nun

Chapter 266 265. Black-robed nun

The nun in black and white robes bowed slightly respectfully, then walked to Lu Yu's side and carefully felt him from top to bottom. Sera did not urge him, but waited quietly.

Unlike the weak nuns in most literary works, the nuns who checked Lu Yu's body along the way all had daggers on their waists. Because Sera was by his side, Lu Yu asked without hesitation whether he could see the other person's hands when he was checked for the first time.

The nun smiled, and the stern-faced halberd knights of the Church behind her also smiled.

The young nun's hands were covered with calluses. She lifted the hem of her skirt without hesitation, revealing her muscular calves.

The closer the nun was to the Pope's Tower to check Lu Yu, the older she became, and the stronger she became.

Lu Yu counted, he had been examined five times in total. The first nun was not as old as Serra, very lively, and very courageous. After the examination, she gently slid her fingers down Lu Yu's back, watching Lu Yu shivering and laughing with the knights of the Church; the second and third nuns were close to middle-aged, experienced, and at the peak of their physical strength. Although they would chat with Lu Yu, they made people feel very dry; the fourth and fifth nuns were white-haired, their skin was dry and wrinkled like bark, their eye sockets were deep, their eyes were cloudy, and their strength was far inferior to the second and third nuns. It seemed that their bodies could not condense magic power, and the magic power fluctuations were abnormal and strange. They no longer joked with Lu Yu lightly, teasing Lu Yu for not being strong enough. Emotions seemed to have disappeared from them. Their eyes were cold and empty like sharp blades, and their breaths were slow like dead people. Only their clean and neat movements could make people feel that they were alive.

However, after hearing that Lu Yu was a glutton who came to perform "eating" for the Pope, the two elderly nuns' cloudy eyes showed some light. They saluted Lu Yu solemnly and watched him walk through the dim corridor until the doors closed one by one, completely blocking their sight.

No more inspections, Lu Yu and Sera walked on a path in a garden, and the afterglow of the setting sun cast their shadows obliquely on the wall covered with green vines.

"What do you feel?" Sera asked.

"Can those patrolling knights of the Church check me next time?"

Sera covered her mouth and laughed: "Why, are you still shy, or do you prefer men? Oh, by the way, I heard from Lulu that your favorite type is a male elf, what is his name... Aesop?"

Lu Yu lowered his head, his brain twitched, and he stepped hard on Sera's shadow. After doing this action, he felt like a little kid. The more he thought about it, the more ashamed he became, so he simply didn't say anything.

Sera thought Lu Yu was choked by her, and laughed even more happily.

"The fourth and fifth nuns are weak and old, why not replace them with younger ones?"

Sera said: "The first nun is in her youth, and her youthful impulse is amazing. If they find that the visitor has bad intentions here, they can fight the enemy to the greatest extent; the second and third nuns are nearly middle-aged, at their peak but about to decline, but they are experienced and reliable. If the enemy has broken through the first nun and the knights of the Church, they can analyze the situation and use different ways of engaging the enemy with their experience and strength; the fourth and fifth nuns have passed their peak, lifeless, and have nothing but faith. If the enemy has broken through the second and third nuns, they will use their bodies to block the enemy and give the Pope a chance to escape."

"This is the Corridor of Time. Invaders will fight guards at different stages of life. Such a Corridor of Time exists not only in the Church, but also in the three major countries, especially those who play the role of the fourth and fifth nuns."

There was no one around, only the footsteps of Lu Yu and Sera echoed, the night had spread, and the stars appeared on the inky sky.

Sera said: "The fourth and fifth nuns you just met have been confirmed to sleep with the Pope."

"Buried alive..." Lu Yu murmured, "Voluntary?"

"They proposed it themselves, hoping to continue serving the Pope when they reach the land of gods, and also to meet the God of Light with the Pope. The Pope worked hard for the Church all his life and had no offspring. There were many scandals when he was young, but at that time, in order to avoid the Church falling into turmoil, he gave up love, so the girl who admired him came to the Church and became a nun. With the help of the Tribunal, she learned martial arts and magic from scratch, became a member of the black nuns, and was sent to the Pope."

"Is it the two just now?"

"Those two are the servants she rescued, and she is now with the Pope."

Next to the towering Pope's Tower, the branches and leaves of the Silver Maple Tree trembled in the breeze, and the silver-white maple leaves fluttered in the wind, and then fell lightly to the ground. This towering tree was endowed with a sacred color because of the legend of the God of Light. Among believers, there was a rumor that the silver maple leaves could cure all diseases. For this reason, there was once a desperate merchant who sold fake leaves.

"On a night with a charming moonlight, the silver maple tree will emit a silvery-white light under the moonlight. Maybe you will have a chance to see it tonight."

Speaking, Sera knocked on the door of the Pope's Tower. Two young nuns in black opened the door and respectfully invited the two in.

Walking up the spiral staircase, Lu Yu and Sera suddenly smiled at each other.

"Three, two, one, shall we say it together?"

"Three..."

"Two..."

"One..."

"Dusk City." Lu Yu and Sera said in unison.

In order to create a separate reincarnation for the personality fragments of Clorons's beautiful memories, Clorons made Twilight City into a mirror structure, and also came up with a bunch of designs that made people lose the sense of space. The one that impressed Lu Yu the most None more so than the spiral staircase.

During the continuous spiral process, it is impossible to know which floor you have ascended. Without a reference object, it is easy to lose position information. This design was so torturous that after leaving Twilight City, Lu Yu immediately recalled everything that happened there as soon as he saw the spiral staircase.

Sera felt more and more that Lu Yu was similar to herself. They had many similarities in the logical sequence of thinking about things, the way they processed information, and their attitudes towards things.

Passing through the corridor filled with magical mechanisms, Sera gently turned the red carved wooden door handle at the end of the corridor.

In the spacious room, the pale Pope Laurent sat on the bed in the center, putting down the scroll in his hand. The moment his eyes touched Serra, he became extremely soft, and a warm smile took over his face.

The nun in black beside Laurend quickly put down the gauze curtain that covered her face and silently retreated to the corner of the room.

"This is what I told you, Gluttonous Eater Lu Yu."

Lu Yu discovered that Serra did not use the honorific title for the Pope. Immediately afterwards, he felt like a courier boy reading out your order name in front of everyone. In order to deliver the goods, you are not allowed to face the eyes of others. …

Lu Yu stepped forward, thinking about what kind of etiquette he should use to meet this influential figure in Mela Continent.

"I have asked the people from the law enforcement office to temporarily retreat. There are no outsiders here, so there is no need to be so reserved."

After saying that, Laurent turned his head and motioned to the nun in black with his eyes. Shortly after the nun in black left the room, the sound of a trolley was heard in the corridor.

The food configuration was similar to that of Zenil's banquet that night. It was all seafood. Knowing that Lu Yu had to prepare dipping sauces, the nun in black asked the chef to wait at the other end of the corridor with the seasonings.

"Your Excellency Lu Yu, I'm sorry that we met in this way. I know you will be troubled by my request. Sera also said that you are not as good at eating as rumored... However, when people get old, they are inevitably a little stubborn. Curious. What kind of heroic eating look does Serra have in his mouth? I wonder what kind of person the foreigner Serra brought back is..."

Laurend looked at Sera with a smile: "At the same time, I also want to meet people who are called friends by children like Sera."

Sera sighed and covered her face: "I knew it wasn't as simple as watching Lu Yu eat."

"You are too unsociable, this is not good."

"You don't have to be a gregarious person when you are chosen by God. Anyway, when the time comes, you will be replaced. It won't make any difference if I go back to being a saint."

The tone of this conversation was unabashed... Lu Yu didn't feel like the simple relationship between the chosen one and the pope, but like a sharp-tongued child and an old father.

The nun in black didn't say anything. She brought Laurend dinner - a small bowl of rice porridge that seemed to be cooked with medicinal herbs, some unnamed green leafy vegetables, and a small portion of minced meat.

Laurende saw Lu Yu still standing beside the cart full of food, and without saying a word after coming in, he smiled and asked the nun in black to serve Lu Yu.

Lu Yu waved his hands repeatedly to stop the nun in black who wanted to help him remove the shrimp flesh. When the limbs touched, Lu Yu was slightly startled by the cold touch.

He subconsciously raised his head and saw the dazzling golden light under the black veil.

The nun in black has vertical pupils!

This feeling cannot be...

The nun in black returned to Laurent as if nothing had happened, picked up the spoon, and gently put the rice porridge into his mouth. From time to time, she would twist the rice grains stuck to the corners of his mouth with her hands and put them under the veil.

"Please enjoy it, Mr. Lu Yu, even if you are not the exaggerated glutton according to the rumors, these delicacies are 'not to be lived up to' in your words, right?" Laurent loved to laugh, even though he looked bad, but every time he smiled When he got up, looking at his kind expression, Lu Yu felt relaxed.

Lu Yu said his first words after entering this room: "Can I let the summons come out to eat together?"

This strange request made the nun in black stop what she was doing, and her golden eyes quickly locked on Lu Yu.

Laurent gently touched the nun in black with his hand, and the nun in black immediately looked away.

"Okay, speaking of which, this is the first time I have seen a summoner feeding his summons. Shouldn't they be satisfied with just enjoying the magic power?"

"To me, summons are just another form of life."

"Interesting answer, I've never heard a summoner say that... So for you, summons are not just 'objects' that serve you?"

"Yes, they fight for me and provide convenience for me. We should be considered partners."

Laurent laughed, so violently that he coughed violently.

"Those summoners will definitely laugh at you, but it doesn't matter. I think your statement is very interesting. At least your answer is warmer than the cold contract, where the summons come and go as soon as you call it."

Seeing Lu Yu devouring the prawns, Laurende smiled and touched the hand of the nun in black and took the porridge bowl. The nun in black tacitly raised the pillow for him.

Lu Yu didn't show any pretense at all, he ate as he wanted, tearing the prawns apart with his hands, scooping out the meat with a spoon, and sucking on the roe, all in one go. The summoned gecko was grilling fish by himself.

Seeing Sera standing aside with her cheeks in her hands and watching, he simply asked Sera to help slice the fish, while he went to the other end of the corridor to find the chef to ask for seasonings to make the dipping sauce.

Sera swallowed her saliva: "Can you eat slower? No one is fighting with you for it?"

"The dipping sauce I made is sour and spicy, very appetizing, the more I eat, the more I want to eat, I can't help it."

"Then can you slice the fish yourself? I want to eat it too."

Sera stopped working, threw the sliced ​​fish into the dipping sauce, picked it up and put it into her mouth, enjoying it happily.

Laurent watched this scene with a smile on his face, and then looked at Lu Yu's eating. His Adam's apple surged and his saliva was secreted crazily. The irritable mood that was a little disgusted when he saw the food disappeared, and a bowl of rice porridge was quickly eaten up, along with the green leafy vegetables and minced meat.

This was the first time Laurent had eaten so much in one meal in such a long time. Not only that, he saw Lu Yu and Sera scrambling to eat shrimp meat, and he actually wanted to have another bowl.

The black-robed nun chuckled and immediately went out to bring Laurent a bowl of delicious fish porridge.

Laurent asked, "Did you cook it?"

The black-robed nun nodded slightly.

Following Lu Yu's eating style, Laurent drank it all up, and his white face became a lot more rosy.

As Laurent finished his meal, Lu Yu, who had eaten a lot, ate a lot and found a chair to sit down.

The black-robed nun's golden eyes cast a look that was no longer sharp. After cleaning up all the tableware, she bowed slightly to Lu Yu in a place where Laurent could not see.

"Sorry, I feel very tired after eating now. I wanted to have a good chat with you..." Laurent said regretfully.

Lu Yu said, "I'm staying at Sera's house temporarily. I'm under the protection of the Church, so you don't have to be so polite."

"In that case, I'll invite you to visit me later. Please don't refuse."

Laurent, whose eyelids were getting heavier, asked the black-robed nun to see him off. It wasn't until they reached the Pope's Tower that the black-robed nun stopped and bowed respectfully to Lu Yu.

After walking a long way, Lu Yu couldn't help asking, "She's not a human."

Sera said, "Feel it? Then guess, what race is she?"

"Her hands were very cold when I touched them, as if they had scales...vertical pupils, and it was very stressful to look her in the eye...Could it be..."

Sera answered, "Yes, you guessed right, it's a dragon...No way!"

Sera looked at the confused Lu Yu and explained, "It's a snake, she's a snakeman."
