Chapter 556 554 You Won’t Accept the Offer Even if You Have Money?

Chapter 556 554. You won't accept even if you have money?

"Landing? The ocean is so vast that it can't accommodate you?"

Lu Yu didn't understand. According to records, there were no records of sea people invading the continents around Mera. As the only overlord of the ocean, the sirens have always been too lazy to participate in land disputes in many sea areas.

"I don't know. Maybe the new races are wary and afraid of the sirens, or maybe the sea people have learned and imitated the actions of the land species, or maybe they are eager to obtain further opportunities for evolution under the tide of magic on land. It seems that there is a resonance between them, and the races near the sea are gathering for this unified goal."

"You seem to be describing what is about to happen from the perspective of a bystander. Aren't you participating?" Lu Yu was curious.

Coral patted Pearl under her and stroked her gently: "My people have not yet awakened. They are like ignorant babies and can only act on instinct. I am the only one with wisdom and I have the responsibility to let them complete their evolution safely... I will stay away from this sea that is about to usher in war."

"But we have entered the most turbulent climax of the magic tide. Isn't the voyage also full of danger?"

"I am full of confidence in our spiral boat. I believe you have discovered that it has a very magical power to suppress magic. This power can even affect the surroundings through the long cry emitted by the vibration of the body. This may be the reason why it is not very smart."

Lulu's mind moved, and she murmured in a low voice: "Stupid dragon..."

Lu Yu also remembered the stupid dragon that could freeze the surroundings by activating magic power. Although stupid and stupid, it possessed extremely powerful power of alien demons.

"Next, we will dive deep and sail far in the quiet seabed until we find a quiet place, float up again, and slowly welcome the awakening moment of our tribe under the bright sunshine."

Coral picked up a fist-sized, lavender-glowing strange bead from the large coral reef behind him.

"For you, my friend."

"Although it is not a particularly precious thing, please accept it."

Lu Yu felt the faint demon-suppressing aura on the bead and was startled.

"Is it really not precious?" he asked.

"It should be the crystallization of the snail boat, coral, and the mother clam that lives here. It is really useless to us. If it can become a witness to this meeting, it will be truly valuable." Coral was very free and easy.

Sera and Lulu hurriedly stretched out their tentacles to take the bead. The aura that could suppress their bodies came to their faces. Both of them showed surprise and quickly realized that this was a wonderful forging material.

I want to return the gift...but how to return the gift? They are penniless now, and the knowledge they have does not seem to be suitable for the jellyfish clan.

Lu Yu had no choice but to carve down the [Element Life] summoning template.

"I'm sorry, I can only give you this gift at the moment. You are active in the sea and deal with water, so you should like this knowledge."

Coral observed the element life template and personally practiced the summoning. He immediately summoned a transparent little octopus that kept "gurgling" and spitting bubbles. It was made of water elements and could instantly dissolve in the water and disappear.

Like getting a new toy, the purple light released from Coral's body was so bright that Coal Ball could not open his eyes. A halo bloomed in the air, slapping around like ripples.

"I like it very much." Coral said, "It looks much more valuable than what I gave you. Why not..."

Seeing Coral turn around, the three souls in Coal Ball's body spoke out to stop him at the same time.

Coral was stunned, and the huge umbrella cover suddenly spread out, the skirt fluttered, and in the blink of an eye it was attached to Coal Ball's forehead.

"I heard it, I heard it, are these the other two souls? Humans are indeed magical creatures."

"No, no, you misunderstood." They said in unison again.

Coral was happy and surprised, imitating the gesture of people clapping, swinging two tentacles and patting: "What a strong synchronization, no wonder one body can perfectly accommodate three souls, you are so similar, so matched, and so harmonious, without any violation... It's like, a real one."

"The three of you have built a perfect soul, which is amazing."

Lu Yu, Lulu, and Sera were speechless, and the chat room was silent, with only slight emotional fluctuations entangled.

"You must love each other to be so harmoniously integrated, right? This is very similar to another twin race I have seen."

"No, it's not like that..." The three wanted to explain, but Coral suddenly stretched out his tentacles and picked up the coal ball.

"Is this the 'love' I heard about when I was ignorant and learning about intelligent races?"

"Only love can transcend all barriers, tightly connect souls, and not repel each other."

Coral fell into ecstasy. She seemed to have suddenly understood a very difficult concept. Her figure was light and graceful, and she held the coal ball and spun in circles above the Coral Sea.

There is no doubt that Coral had a huge misunderstanding, but seeing that she had entered an excited state and was extremely satisfied, the coal ball trio didn't know how to speak. They suddenly felt that interrupting this beautiful dance was a very poor behavior.

The slender "arms" of the coral swayed rhythmically with the rising and falling sea water at the bottom, clearly dancing in the air, but her posture was the same as in the sea water, as if the blue water was holding her up. , caressing her, her dance The posture is light and graceful, seeming to fit into some unknown and wonderful rhythm. Just watching quietly, their ears heard the melodious sound of conchs, the waves of the sea, the sound of fish breaking out of the water, and The sound of wind blowing over the waves.

There is no need for arrangement or musical instruments. Everything between the sea and the sky brings its own notes to her dance, allowing her to pick them and compose her own songs.

It wasn't until the coral stopped waving its tentacles in response to emotions and landed lightly on the pearl that the trio of briquettes recovered from their trance.

They seemed to see and hear voices from far away, ethereal, illusory, unreal... just like in a dream.

Even if you have no interest in the Hai Clan, even if you have no aesthetic foundation, as long as you are here, you will sincerely admire: "It's so elegant and beautiful."

This is an emotion and resonance that can be conveyed without words. It is a totem that can connect all the lost souls together even if the curse of the Tower of Babel comes.

"It's so beautiful." Sierra expressed her feelings directly.

"Thank you for your compliment. I often dance with my tribe members. Even without complete consciousness, they can still perform beautiful dance steps with moving gestures." Coral said regretfully, "It's a pity that the chamber is too small for such a dance. Participation is limited to minorities.”

"But I believe we can eventually find a new home that is safer than this one."

"There, all the tribesmen can leave the snail boat and enjoy the moistness of the sea in the sunshine and dim light, and be washed by the wind and rain, floating and diving like they are teasing them."

In the chat room, Lulu broke the silence: "What do you two think?"

"I have no problem." Lu Yu said.

"So you want me to make a decision?" Sierra thought for a moment, "Then I agree."

The coral stretched out its tentacles and rummaged for something in the coral sea. Lu Yu put the tentacles on one of her tentacles and tapped it gently.

"My friend, please wait a moment. For the sake of you and your lover, I should give you two more small gifts."

Lu Yu's head was numb and he said quickly: "Coral, do you want to leave with us? We are about to return to our own continent."

The coral tentacles twisted up two small purple balls that were slightly smaller than the previous demon-suppressing beads, and said happily: "I have them."

She turned around and stuffed the gift into Qiu Qiu's arms: "This way every soul will have a gift."

"Coral, do you want to leave with us? We are about to return to our own continent." Lu Yu had no choice but to repeat it quickly.

This time Coral heard clearly. The body was still purple, but the tentacles turned into seaweed green. This fresh change made the trio of coal balls feel very fresh.

"Your continent...is it safe?"

"Generally speaking, there is no unturbulent area under the magic tide. We have a territory of our own on that continent. It just so happens that an area near the sea belongs to us. Compared to most places, our territory is already very small. A safe place.”

"But that's a piece of territory. Is it appropriate for you to share it with us?"

"You call me your friend, don't you? I think it's very appropriate." Lu Yu said, "In fact, I have also taken care of a group of children who have just been born with wisdom. They are a group of silly mushrooms... Just for a moment, I heard you mention When my people could only hide in small chambers, I thought of them when they were still in the Great Wetland.”

"This is a decision made by the three of us. If you are willing, we just need to find another guide to set off."

The body of the coral is half seaweed green and half dark purple. The giant clam, which seems to have given birth to some wisdom, opens and closes, and seems to be thinking.

"As you said, some encounters are the result of fate. I am willing to continue to believe it." The green color of the coral body gradually faded, leaving only pure purple.

"Can I ask, what is the name of your territory?"

"Morning light."

…

…

"Mr. Magician, I must emphasize to you again that Seabird Jeffrey is the leading sea guide in the nearby city-states. In addition to those large islands and continents, it is said that he also knows the locations of some wild islands in the vast sea. Just like a seabird, it can always find its habitat accurately and will never get lost due to direction problems. Even if it loses its direction in a storm, it can quickly reorient itself. "

"Not only that, he is also a sixth-level magician. He is a very capable person, no less than you. Therefore, you must obey his temper, otherwise... the scene will not look good in a fight. of."

The guide who was wandering around the city-state dutifully completed his introduction and guidance work, and Lu Yu threw him a silver coin without hesitation.

The guide smiled brightly, and the wrinkles on his face were squeezed together. He bowed and left knowingly, without staying for more than a second.

Seabird Jeffrey is a forest elf. His home is on the edge of the core area of ​​the city-state. According to the guide, anyone who can own a house here must be rich or noble, and must also be a forest elf.

Throughout Guwel, after the elves took over, most city-states reserved exclusive residences for the elves, and other races were not eligible to enter and share them with the elves.

Jeffrey has many side jobs that require contact with foreign races, so he specially purchased this marginal residence to receive all kinds of guests.

Knocking on the door of Jeffrey's house, Lu Yu was greeted by two human slave boys. They respectfully led Lu Yu to the garden, where three or four tables of guests cast their eyes on Lu Yu, and some even used magic to try to peek into the secrets hidden under the mask.

"How dare you, you use magic without knowing the other party's background. The folk customs here are really 'simple'." Lulu complained.

Sera said: "In Mela, the graves should be covered with grass."

Lu Yu whispered to the waiter who brought him tea and snacks: "How long will it take for me to see Mr. Jeffrey?"

"Maybe soon, maybe slowly, it's never sure." Seeing the silver coins that appeared on the tray at some point, the waiter's hand trembled, his wrist turned, and he hid it.

While pouring tea, the waiter leaned over and whispered in Lu Yu's ear: "You seem very friendly. Let me remind you that if you come here for cross-continental navigation, leave as soon as possible."

"Why?"

"Lord Jeffrey refused to provide this service a few days ago. I believe that other sea guides will also issue statements soon. If you want to ask why...Lord Jeffrey's original words were that it was too difficult and too tiring."

Lu Yu was thoughtful and nodded to the waiter gratefully.

The waiter was right. Some people entered to talk with Jeffrey for a very short time, counting seconds, and might come out in a dusty face before a minute; some were very long, and the tea had been refilled, but there was still no sign of anyone.

From noon to dusk, Lu Yu was finally called into the house. They were lucky because they were the last guests that Jeffrey was willing to meet today.

In the study room on the second floor, Lu Yu met the famous sea guide of Gu Weier. He sat behind a desk piled with drawings and tools, and his dark green eyes scanned Lu Yu coldly, and finally stopped on the mask.

He had a beard on his handsome but somewhat vicissitudes face. Unlike most forest elves who valued cleanliness and neatness, Jeffrey was very rough and highly recognizable.

"Tell me what you want." Jeffrey turned the pen in his hand.

"I need a cross-sea guide."

After the pen fell, Jeffrey raised his head slightly, and an intriguing smile appeared on his face.

"Didn't anyone tell you that I no longer accept this commission?"

As the magic power surged, a package from the backpack behind Lu Yu fell on the table.

Jeffrey glanced calmly at the contents of the package and smiled disdainfully: "Do you think it's a matter of remuneration?"

"I've seen more treasures than you think. I said I won't accept it, so leave."

A bead fell on the table and rolled on it.

In just a moment, Jeffrey's eyes widened.

"I think it should be a question of remuneration." Lu Yu said, "Now, can we talk about whether to accept or not?"
