Chapter 572 570 Jeffrey's Surprise
Chapter 572 570. Jeffrey’s Surprise
Zenil took action so quickly and decisively, and defeated Dewek's army with overwhelming force. This was something Lu Yu did not expect. He originally thought that Solon's triangle would be maintained for a while longer.
After taking a look at the battle reports collected by Milai, a piece of information obtained by former Solon Grover from his former colleagues caught Lu Yu's attention.
"During the third attack on the royal city of Rodmir, the city defense was shaky for a while, but Zenil ordered the magicians to take a break so that the city defense array could have time to relax and be repaired. The intention of such a decision is unknown."
Lu Yu was thoughtful and tapped his fingers on the table.
Sigrid marked the file, so she also knew what Lu Yu saw at this moment.
"As an excellent leader, Zenil should be very aware of the importance of morale on the battlefield. Our own morale is like a rainbow, and the defense of the Royal City of Rodmere is crumbling. It should have been a good time to make a big move, but he suddenly ordered a postponement. This is not consistent. A common sense move, I think..."
Lu Yu encouraged Sigrid and motioned for Sigrid to continue.
"I think Zenil did it on purpose. He just wanted Dewek to have a chance to escape. I even suspect that he had guessed that Tanya, who was following him, would ambush somewhere and deliberately sent Dewek to In her hands."
"Oh, then why did he do this? He could have established his Solonian orthodoxy in one fell swoop, so why bother?" Lu Yu asked deliberately.
"Dewek is Zenil's father after all. As the legitimate emperor of Solon, it will be very difficult for Zenil to deal with his father. Maybe in the eyes of ordinary people, it is nothing more than house arrest, or finding an opportunity to secretly deal with it. It is guaranteed that he will no longer be able to share his power, but he is an ambitious man and also hopes that Solon can continue for a long time, so as an emperor, he has to worry about the impact. "
"If you can't handle the problems yourself, just leave them in the hands of others."
Lu Yu immediately applauded: "You have grown up. As expected, the position of lord is a training for people."
In the past, Sigrid might have been a little embarrassed, but now, she enjoyed the compliment openly.
"As you said, Tanya cares most about her own face and reputation. Once Divek is in her hands, she will not handle it properly no matter how she handles it. She will also give Zenil room to set a trap. This fool actually captured... …”
Sierra asked, "Do you think Tanya can see through this?"
Lulu hesitated and said: "I can see through it, but Tanya is often overconfident, thinking that she can perfectly resolve other people's tricks with her intelligence, so she faces difficulties and confronts her brother. I doubt that she is this kind of person." The thought came up again."
"Give her a little reminder, pay attention, and stop clicking." Lu Yu told Sigrid, "What I want is for her and Zenil to continue to maintain this competitive situation and tear open the gap for the flow of knowledge bit by bit. It’s best to hold on until the magic wave ends. Before that, none of them are allowed to win. Of course, I won’t let them fall easily.”
"Now that they have jumped into my game, I have the final say when they want to get out."
The strong confidence in Lu Yu's words made Sigrid's heart surge. She responded with a smile. Behind her, Huang Dui and Mu Mu, whose faces turned red after hearing the words, quickly took notes with pen and paper.
"Any other news?"
"There is news from the northern territory of Solon. It is said that Roye, who has established himself as the lord of the northern territory, has greatly strengthened the population in the territory through the slave trade with Sligo. The area was devastated after being ravaged by the infection. The land is getting a good harvest again.”
"At the same time, because of the defeat of Dewek, the army that was originally divided to defend the northern border seems to have switched sides and officially joined Royer's camp."
Lu Yu hesitated for a moment and asked in a low voice: "Does Xialem know?"
"I know, but she said that she no longer wants to hear news about him and just wants to farm with peace of mind."
After recovering, Sharem did not leave the Dawn Territory, nor was she depressed. Instead, she followed Olga and Judith to tend the crops.
Sigrid brought tea leaves to taste with her in her spare time, and heard her say this while relaxing.
"Farming is so wonderful... If you give it enough water, light, and fertilizer, and then put your efforts into caring for it, it will grow slowly. If it is wheat, it will be wheat, and if it is melon, it will be melon. It will not change."
I thought that there weren't many things waiting for me to deal with, but I glanced at the list in Sigrid's hand and realized how wrong I was.
"It's more important to pick a few things. We can't put it off any longer. Let's talk about the things we need to make decisions about. I have to leave tomorrow. Don't worry. I'll come back as soon as I go this time."
After this long journey, San Meiqiu was a little tired and eager to have a good sleep. As they spoke, the three of them stretched their tentacles straight and stretched hard.
"Far away again?"
"Yes, I want to leave with Huo Gu."
Sigrid hesitated for a moment: "Huogu is not in the Dawn Territory now."
Lu Yu was stunned: "Did you tell him anything to do?"
Sigrid shook her head and pretended to be stupid: "I don't know why he left suddenly, but he was told that he would be back soon. I think it should be soon."
Lu Yu didn't think too deeply about it, he just said that Huo Gu had nothing to do and couldn't sleep very well, so he went for a drive to relieve his boredom.
"There is indeed an urgent matter. The person concerned has come to my place three times, but I really can't make a decision."
Sigrid said hello to the slime beside her, and it immediately scampered away. Not long after, it entered the study room with Vera, who had just borrowed a book from the library.
"Okay, the real master is here. If you have any plans, just tell them directly." After Sigrid finished speaking, she stepped aside and left her place to them.
Vera smoothed her bangs that covered her eyes: "The Dark Green Siren clan hopes to officially become a member of the Dawn Leader. Yes, this is the common wish of all of us."
In a very casual and relaxed tone, he made an incredible decision.
The only sounds left in the study were the breathing of everyone and the rustling sound of Vera's slightly uneasy swaying tail tip sweeping across the ground.
Sierra took over the body and asked, "Do you know what this decision means?"
"It is very clear that becoming a member of the Dawn Territory means that the group of Dark Green Siren ceases to exist. We are left with the identity of members of the Dawn Territory. Even if the magic wave ends, we will not return to the depths of the sea, but I will live and die with this territory.”
"I promised you that I will protect you until the magic wave ends. You don't need to question this, so there is no need to calm down your inner uneasiness in this way. You are our friend, Vera."
Vera's face was filled with a warm smile: "I know, but I also know how important choices are in this chaotic era. Now there are only a few tribesmen left in the dark green sea monster. Even if it returns to the sea, there will be no more." How can it be done?”
"There is knowledge deep in the sea. Is there the power that can make the deep green group grow?" Vera looked directly at Sanmei Qiu, "No, no, only the Dawn Leader, or you, will generously share what you have with your best friends. Everything, this generosity is incredible. At a time when everyone is eager to be the first to become the first magician in the new era, you are acting like a fool..."
Vera raised the book in her hand, which happened to be part of the summoning introduction guide written by Lu Yu.
"Who would put such precious knowledge in a place where it can be borrowed anywhere, and who would not put the knowledge in a high cabinet... What you are doing has convinced all the people of the Dark Green Siren that the Dawn Leader will also cast the morning light on them, because you Different.”
"The Dark Green Siren is willing to follow the Dawn Territory and open up the path you choose. Even if this path is full of thorns, it doesn't matter. We are ready to wake up."
In the chat room, the three of them had the same mind.
"Welcome, Vera."
Facing the tentacles extended by the three coal balls, Vera ingeniously raised her chubby tail and completed the handshake with the tip of her tail.
This funny scene completely washed away the previous seriousness.
As a witness, the record-keepers, Mu Du and Huang Dui, faithfully described this scene. I wonder what people who borrowed related books from the Grand Library will think when they see this scene a few years later.
After confirming her new identity, Vera excitedly shared this information with her tribe, and Lu Yu also breathed a long sigh of relief.
They felt that the decision they made took another step forward for Chen Xi.
As Xinlu came to the courtyard of the medical team, Lu Yu saw the ice coffin placed in a flower bed made of cold-resistant plants.
Until her death, Dawn Leader did not know Kitten Girl's real name. Her consciousness was shattered by the infant spirit, and she did not even leave a title for everyone to remember her by.
Cat Girl, who was sealed in an ice coffin, had her hands crossed on her chest, with a peaceful look on her cute little face.
According to everyone in the medical team, before Kitty Girl's chance disappeared, she stopped tossing and turning, and the endless nightmares seemed to be far away from her body, allowing her body that was already too weak to move to regain some strength. She even took the initiative He got up, touched the new green vigil with his trembling hands, and timidly asked her for a candy.
"She said she saw her brother and sister being tortured, her dead parents, and you being attacked by someone she hated."
"I thought she was trapped in a dream that she couldn't wake up from. After holding her and coaxing her for a while, she told me that there were many voices in her ears, all of which were members of her tribe she was familiar with. They were all murmuring in low voices. It’s like guiding her towards the distance.”
"Sister Xinlu, have our family done anything wrong...why have we always been so unlucky for hundreds of years?"
It was as if something soft in San Meiqiu's heart was stabbed lightly.
Lu Yu and the others have never figured out how Kitten Girl freed herself from the shackles of the resentful spirit. At the same time, she should have been thousands of miles away. What did this power come from?
Stroking the ice coffin, Lu Yu sighed and ordered: "Just send it to the Tower of Reincarnation."
"But Kitten Girl's spirit body no longer exists..."
Without the spirit body, even if you want to seek a miracle, it is impossible.
"I know, send her to the underground mirror bottom of the Reincarnation Tower. It's quiet there. Let her sleep peacefully." Lu Yu said.
…
…
Jeffrey, led by the elf slaves, walked around the border of the Dawn Territory. After truly feeling how huge this territory was, he began to doubt whether the required number of elves listed by Miss Olga was There was a lack of consideration...
Every forest elf that Jeffrey saw along the way was not bound by shackles or magic-suppressing equipment. This was very different from what he had seen in Guwel and many other continents. After all, slaves were part of the property. Slave owners always need to be wary of these guys escaping, and they use various methods to do this.
But in Dawn Territory, these forest elves seem to be very free and in extremely good physical condition.
At mealtime, the magical slime dining car will even pass by the area where they work with the forest elves' dishes. The dining standard of two dishes and one soup even makes Jeffrey a little confused... He heard the forest elves next to him say that if they are not used to the dishes made by the chef of Dawn Castle, they can ask Olga and Judith for other food.
Are such rich dishes sure to be rationed for slaves?
The slimes obviously understood Jeffrey's question, and they gave a positive answer by stretching their bodies.
To keep the slaves in a state of not starving to death but not full, so that these slaves can always rely on themselves, this is the method used by the slave owners Jeffrey has seen. Is Lu Yu wasting resources by doing this?
A passing lady got a bowl of soup from the slime dining car and heard Jeffrey muttering to himself.
"Don't think it's strange. I came to this territory earlier than you, and I've seen more than this one strange thing. Just get used to it."
"What's your name?" Jeffrey asked.
"Sphenoid... I heard about you. You seem to be a companion brought back by the three lords. I'm different from you. It's just a chance encounter that got me involved here. After that, I was shameless enough not to leave. Fortunately, they didn't seem to care about me, and they even assigned me a job, for example..." Sphenoid nodded behind him.
Jeffrey saw the mud giant slumped on the ground.
"A helper who helps to reclaim the wasteland, a capable person under the [Elemental Life] template." Diegu smiled, "We are in the same group."
Jeffrey stood in awe: "[Elemental Life], this is the name of a template, then you must be a summoner with outstanding talent, who discovered the template and was appreciated by Lu Yu. You are so polite."
Diegu waved his hands quickly, his face flushed: "No, no, don't get me wrong, I don't have such excellent talent. Although I did touch the edge of a certain template, it was the lord who finally figured out the trick."
"Then What is this template? "
"Oh, it is the knowledge that you can apply for as long as you feel that you are interested in summoning and can continue to learn. "Sidebone said, "I happened to participate in the summoning group, so the lord also gave me a copy. Oh, he personally tutored me on the parts I didn't understand... I'm a little embarrassed. Obviously, the lord's two apprentices can get it right away, but I, who have some basics, have stumbled. "
Jeffrey was startled. He suddenly remembered that before killing Krist, Lu Yu said with great regret that he had the idea of exchanging to achieve a win-win situation.
Jeffrey didn't take it to heart at the time, but after hearing what Sidebone said...
"Does he really think so?"
The roar of the dragon resounded through the sky, and Jeffrey trembled suddenly and looked around in horror.
"A giant dragon is coming?"
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. This should be the return of the adult named Huogu." Diegu explained, "You may not know yet, but our Dawn Territory is guarded by a giant dragon. He is a very wise and powerful senior. As long as you build a good relationship, you can even ask some dragon magic that humans can use."
Jeffrey blinked his eyes, his head was dizzy... He found that although he had been wandering around for two days, he was still very unfamiliar with Dawn Territory.
Why is everything here different from what he knows?
At the same time, Lu Yu's whole coal ball was wrapped by the hands of a group of excited children.
