Lu Yu's mind buzzed, and the first possibility he thought of was that Lulutis was exposed.
If he remembered correctly, Lulutis used the blood of the stupid dragon as the raw material to refine the transformation potion for the stupid dragon... He wouldn't have really smelled it!
But I have been with Lulutis for so long, and it’s not like I haven’t smelled Lulutis before. I can’t smell anything. What kind of nose does this giant dragon have?
"Girl with horns, open your cyst and take out its contents."
"well?"
Sigrid and Lu Yu had the same reaction. She also felt that Lulutis had been discovered, so she was ready to open the hybrid furnace, strike first, and punch the dragon's jaw open.
There is nothing suspicious in my backpack.
Sigrid looked at Lu Yu.
She only obeyed Lu Yu's orders. If Lu Yu refused, it would be a signal to take action.
Lu Yu hesitated for a while and nodded to Sigrid.
With the approval, Sigrid took off her backpack and started taking things out one by one.
The seasonings you saved, the dry food you made, the emergency scrolls you bought when you left Black Shield City, and...
When the severed hand of the Goblin King, which was wrapped in layers of linen, was taken out, the giant dragon stuck its head over and carefully checked the breath.
"Open."
The severed hand was processed by a famous craftsman in Black Shield City, so it did not decay, but maintained the same appearance as when it was chopped off.
The giant dragon looked at the severed hand and remained silent for a long time.
"Did you kill him?" There was no emotion in the dragon's tone.
Lu Yu also realized that the dragon should know the Goblin King, so he quickly told all the details about his previous encounter with the Goblin King.
During Lu Yu's narration, the dragon's body changed.
The green moss-covered soil and rocks on the back are constantly peeling off, and reddish-brown scales have been exposed in some places.
After Lu Yu finished telling the story about the Goblin King, the dragon raised his head and looked in the direction of Yas, his eyes a little blurry.
"Yes, it has been thirty years... or forty years, probably. His lifespan should have reached its limit."
"Gold level... This evaluation standard seems to be created by humans. It is different in every place. It is not clear to what extent he has reached his peak."
The dragon tilted his head, as if he was recalling something: "Did I sleep for so long this time?"
"Do you know the Goblin King?" Lu Yu asked.
"When he was besieged by centaurs, I yelled boredly and accidentally saved him." The dragon said, "Later, in order to repay me, he stayed with me for a while... It turned out that it has been so long. …"
After saying that, the dragon stared at Lu Yu again.
"For the sake of his admiration for you, I won't ask you what the goblin, dragon, slime, giant salamander, and other subtle scents are in your backpack."
"Human, you can leave, don't disturb my rest."
With that said the dragon moved out of the way.
Lu Yu, who was sweating coldly, said thank you to Sigrid and walked forward.
This giant dragon is far more powerful than Lu Yu imagined. According to Lulutis' speculation in the chat room, he has at least the strength of gold, or even more.
A giant dragon of this strength is almost invincible in this land where magicians are generally at the fourth level and monsters have the highest level of gold. If he wants to, he can easily destroy the unsuspecting human empire and alien tribes.
Unless the whole country is mobilized to fight against it, facing such a powerful dragon will only lead to death.
Fortunately, this giant dragon is not cruel. On the contrary, he looks very lazy.
Judging from the dirt and vegetation on his back and what he said, he had been sleeping for almost forty years, and he was planning to take a nap. Lu Yu had already heard the dragon yawning hard. .
Some races sleep for the rest of their lives, and wasting time does not affect their strength. Time is wasted just because they live long and have nothing to do.
And some races have to work their whole life to barely touch the starting point of other races. Just like this, they have become old and will die before they can even enjoy the fruits of their efforts.
Is this where the Goblin King returned to the Lotan Plains?
What did he see from the dragon, and what was he thinking about?
Lu Yu didn't know.
"Human, for that guy's sake, let me remind you something."
The dragon yawned again and opened its wings slightly, as if it was about to take off.
"Don't walk around when it's foggy."
There was no beginning or end, and I didn’t know what the meaning of the words was. After saying this, the dragon fluttered its wings and took off, disappearing from Lu Yu’s sight.
They had little friendship with the giant dragon, so it was good that they were willing to remind them casually, so Lu Yu naturally did not ask further questions.
It wasn't until Lu Yu left the valley that he understood the meaning of "there may be strange monster activities in foggy weather".
In any case, it was enough to pass through the giant dragon valley without incident. When he first saw the giant dragon, Lu Yu's heart almost stopped.
In film and television literary works, we see giant dragons on the screen, reading between the lines, and no matter how much we imagine, we can't get this immersive feeling.
Only by truly facing them can we understand why dragon slayers are respected by people in this world.
Most people do not lack the courage to confront the giant dragon head-on. However, after they see the giant dragon, the huge size gap and the pressure of the powerful momentum will cause these outstanding people to deform their movements and fight with their legs.
For those who are not strong-willed enough, just standing in front of the dragon will consume all their strength.
Lulutis said that Lu Yu behaved very well. He could still remain calm and talk to the dragon when he saw him for the first time.
Lu Yu felt that this was because the dragon did not show any obvious malice... If he had to fight hard, he didn't know if his summoning ceremony could be completed smoothly.
"Take your time, you have only been a magician for a long time. From the very beginning, you are required to make no forced errors when facing a giant dragon. This is too strict. When I was a child, I was so scared that I couldn't fire a fireball when facing a giant woodland spider. , but now..."
"Now your fireball can't be released." Lu Yu complained.
"Lu Yu!"
"Okay, don't slap me. Your tentacles have hurt from hitting people recently. Is the seal loosened?"
"It's just that the body's magic power has recovered a little, and the overall strength has increased."
This made Lu Yu very happy. Lulutis could recover a little bit, even if she couldn't use high-level magic, but as a tentacle monster, she could do many things with sufficient physical strength.
The trio walked up and down, and on the tenth day after leaving the Dragon Valley, Sigrid frowned while standing on the hill looking into the distance.
"Master, it seems to be foggy. The fog is so thick that you can't see far away at all."
Lu Yu, who was grilling meat, threw a few skewers of barbecue in his hand to Lulutis and walked to the hill to take a look in person.
As Sigrid said, there was heavy fog not far away, with extremely low visibility. As the breeze blew, the fog seemed to be spreading.
The two of them quickly returned to the fire, took the meat skewers from the barbecue master Lulutis, and ate them happily.
Lu Yu always kept the giant dragon's reminder in mind. Since leaving the giant dragon valley, they stopped rushing when the sky was slightly bright. They would only start on the road when the sun dispersed the fog in the forest.
No matter what dangers there are in the fog, as long as you obey the dragon's warnings throughout the journey, there will be no problem.
It was the same this time. After eating the barbecue, the three people quickly entered the cave they found. In order to prevent accidents, Lulutis found a large number of branches and dead wood piled at the entrance of the cave to camouflage the place.
After doing all this, Lu Yu and the others lit a small bonfire in the cave, and played cards by the light of the fire.
That's right, playing cards.
If the trip is too boring without some entertainment as a break, the three of us will run into problems sooner or later.
In order to allow everyone to relax before taking a break, Lu Yu tore off the paper from the notebook he used to take notes, cut it into the same size, and made a simple playing card.
I originally thought that I would need to introduce the rules to the two of them for a long time, but I never expected that Lulutis got started quickly because she had played similar card games in Solon, and it was still one of the nobles’ favorite entertainment activities. .
As a result, the only unlucky person in the team was confirmed to be Sigrid. She almost always lost when she first started playing poker.
When the three of them played Landlord, the only one who always called Landlord no matter what the cards were was Sigrid. However, she shocked Lu Yu by calling him Landlord at the beginning. He was so frightened that he thought Sigrid What kind of big name did Lid have? It was enough to hold him and Lulutis to death in one blow.
However, after a few days of fiasco, Sigrid, who was always painted on her face with charcoal, finally got out of the rookie stage and started to fight back against Lu Yu and Lulutis.
Sigrid's luck at cards tonight was so good that she even got a card with three bombs in her hand, blowing up the landowner Lulutis until her face was bloodless... Oh, I couldn't see her face, but she was in the chat room anyway. Yelling.
Because she couldn't use charcoal to draw on Lulutis's face, her punishment was special.
Sigrid picked up a small amount of sand with her fingertips and sprinkled it on Lulutis' body.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
Sigrid was a little embarrassed. Lulutis herself said the content of the punishment. Now that Lulutis is sobbing, wouldn't it be better to change it?
Lu Yu muttered in the chat room: "You set the rules. Don't sob 'woo woo' when you lose. This will make Sigrid very difficult to handle."
Lulutis's head was full of questions.
"Who are you? Do you think I'm a noble lady who can't afford to lose?"
"Did you know that just now I was holding my head up and was showered with sand?"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
“…”
“…”
The cards in the hands of the three of them were put down in unison.
They suddenly discovered that the crying was coming from outside the cave.
