Heather and Hester looked solemnly as they fiddled with the collected information.
After Lu Yu left the Galang Empire, the Knights of the Star finally chose to shelve the treatment of the cat-faced murderer and chose to cooperate with him to further unearth the human body trading industry chain he exposed.
The cat-faced murderer was very cooperative. Not only did he tell Heather everything he knew, he also captured a minion in his unique way and handed it over to Heather for interrogation.
When Heather followed the clues and lifted the veil of this sinful transaction bit by bit, what was behind the veil made Heather's hair stand on end.
The cat-faced murderer was sitting in the corner of the secret room. He lifted a corner of his hood, picked up a water glass and filled it with water to quench his thirst. He then picked up a piece of pastry and ate it.
Seeing Heather and Hester sorting out information and inferring various results in a cold sweat, the cat-faced murderer said casually: "Why lie to yourself? Don't you already have the answer in your heart?"
As if thinking about being stabbed by the cat-faced murderer, Heather, who had always been soft-spoken, replied angrily: "Xingchen is always cautious in doing things. I don't want to wrong a good person because of a momentary error in judgment."
"Hopefully there are still good people."
The cat-faced murderer had no awareness of being a prisoner and happily choked Heather back.
Ever since some clues pointed to transactions, knights, and even the Prince of Cornwall, the cat-faced murderer knew that he had no chance of escaping.
This is a scandal, and the kind of scandal that consumes a bunch of insiders as sacrifices to quell the scandal.
But the cat-faced killer was disappointed.
When the relationship between Thoreson and the Grand Empire might deteriorate again, he took the initiative to stand up, hoping to resolve the misunderstanding between the two countries by himself.
At that time, he still had some enthusiasm, and he still believed in the justice and future of this country because of Heather, Lu Yu and others.
But as the investigation progressed and Heather saw more things, his heart became colder.
The most promising person to succeed Grand V is still the Prince of Cornwall. This notorious prince has always been indulged because of Grand V's guilt for the late queen.
The cat-faced murderer is not optimistic about the stars and continues to pursue. What they have to face next is the intricate network of aristocratic relationships, as well as many powerful figures who have already sided with the Prince of Cornwall.
There are also things that a sixth-level magician cannot do.
Heather massaged her eyebrows tiredly, with many thoughts in her mind.
Lu Yu has left the Grand Empire for more than a month, but the words he gave to Heather when he left still come to mind from time to time.
"If the king is wise, everything will be solved."
This sentence can also be understood in reverse.
If the king is stupid, everything Heather does will be in vain.
The matter involved the prince, the king's eldest son. No matter how much evidence Heather had, it couldn't compare to a word from Grand V.
"Sir Lu Yu, you have had a premonition, are you reminding me... But I am a subject of Grand, and it is my duty to advise His Majesty."
The idea had always taken hold, but Heather had been slow to implement it.
The internal war between heaven and man caused Heather great suffering.
Hester wanted to support Heather's decision, but the problem was that Heather was stuck at the decision-making step, and the only thing he could do now was to worry.
After staring at the cat-faced murderer's hood in boredom for a long time, Hester suddenly tilted his head and pricked up his ears.
"Heather."
"Heather!"
"Um...ah, what's wrong?"
Seeing Heather come to her senses, Hester quickly said: "Did you hear anything?"
"What sound?" Heather asked blankly.
"Like...a dragon roar."
It is indeed a dragon roar.
In order to deal with the two dolls, Giant and Butterfly, Lu Yu and Lulu Tisi found the giant dragon Huo Gu as foreign aid.
The existence of forbidden magic means that most magicians cannot break the giant's defense at all, and the physical strength and size of the giant make most warriors can only shake their heads and sigh.
As a giant dragon, Huogu's size, physical strength, and strength are all online. Although he only has the strength of a crystal, it is more than enough to deal with two puppets that have no thinking ability and can only act according to established procedures.
When leaving the Dragon Valley, Lulutis left a communication circle for Huogu so that he could be notified when Lulutis arrived home or after verifying new conjectures.
Through the communication circle, Huogu, who had just fallen asleep, quickly woke up and immediately came to the Grand Empire based on his impression.
Because he was afraid of flying too high, he chose to land and ask for directions from humans.
Grand V was very honored to show the way to Hogu who suddenly arrived in the few open spaces in the palace, and finally invited the great god Hogu away.
Hogu kept flying and stopping all the way. After landing again and finding the elf to ask for directions, he finally flew to the Silent Mountains.
Lu Yu and his party, who were squatting in front of the communication circle, felt relieved when they saw Huo Gu descending from the sky.
"It's been two days, you're flying too slow!" The fog demon turned into Sigrid's appearance, floated in front of Huo Gu and complained.
As a result, she was naturally restrained by Huogu's magic power and her mouth was gagged.
"You are so energetic. It seems that Lu Yu takes good care of you...Humph, you should suffer, otherwise you will not make any progress."
Lu Yu quickly explained to the mist demon: "Actually, the mist demon also played a big role. When I fight against monsters and giants, she is always ready to be my shield."
Huo Gu glanced at the mist demon who turned into a kitten to please him, and loosened her restraints.
"Are you sure it was Sayer's work?"
Hearing Huo Gu talk about business, Lu Yu looked stern: "Even if it's not Sayer, you can still be sure that it was the work of another ninth-level magician."
Lulutis then informed Huo Gu of all the contents that were not detailed in the communication.
Huo Gu felt hot when he heard this.
While helping Lu Yu and protecting the mist demon, you also have the opportunity to glimpse the magic created by the most powerful group of humans and learn about their past. Is there anything better than this?
Soon Huo Gu knew that there really was.
"Your summon has been banned...that's a weird word. In short, it's forbidden to summon, right?"
Lu Yu looked even happier than Huo Gu and nodded happily.
The Demon-Eating Tree was the name Lu Yu gave to the new summoned object, although he didn't know if there would be a chance to summon it again.
On the day the Demon-Eating Tree was destroyed by the Forbidden Demon Giant, Lu Yu received the third payment message shortly after escaping from the dangerous area.
The price is also to fall asleep after sunset, which is also seven days.
Lu Yu soon tried to summon the Demon-Eating Tree again. However, just like summoning the flesh and blood chariot, he could not summon anything.
Through several summons, it was proved that the Demon-Eating Tree had indeed entered the banned list of the world consciousness and teamed up with the Flesh Chariot.
Moreover, Lu Yu's dream on the first night was exactly the same as after the flesh and blood chariot was banned.
The world in the dream was still white. After the Demon-Eating Tree appeared, it tied up Lu Yu with its branches and forcibly instilled magic power into Lu Yu's body...
"Tell me, why didn't you say anything?" Huogu opened his eyes and asked curiously, "I am very interested in what happens after you are filled with magic power."
The mist demon chuckled: "Lu Yu has been retching since he woke up yesterday morning. I don't know if it is related to his weird dream."
Seeing Lu Yu's face turning red, Sigrid quickly helped change the subject.
"In this way, can we prove that the last world consciousness conjecture is indeed correct."
"No." Huo Gu retorted bluntly, "The summons cannot be used one after another. There can also be physical gods acting. Lu Yu still needs to verify this answer through more summons. It is only in a few cases that it is impossible to make a judgment. .”
"If this process continues, whether it is a physical god or a simple world consciousness, Lu Yu will tease out some clues. We just have to wait."
After talking about the personal progress in recent days, it is time to return to the matter of calling for Huogu to come.
Although Lulutis was full of confidence in Huo Gu, Lu Yu was still a little worried.
The known dolls are Giant and Butterfly, but are there any unknown dolls?
Would it be a little difficult for Huo Gu to fight one against two, or even one against more than one?
"I can easily deal with ordinary seventh-level magicians. How can two brainless puppets stop me?"
"Besides, why do I have to fight them? If your purpose is to check the central area of the Silent Mountains and find the secret of the forbidden demon, then I can completely carry you over the defense area of these two dolls. They will take Why catch up with me or force me to stop?"
Lu Yu liked this idea very much, but there was a prerequisite.
"Please try flying once first."
Huogu didn't argue too much, spread his wings and flew into the sky, then quickly plummeted to the same height as the crown of the tallest tree in the forest.
After showing off his speed and burst, Huo Gu flew straight in the direction pointed by Lu Yu.
Because Lu Yu had reminded that there might be some man-made structures in the Silent Mountains, and these traces were most likely deliberately disguised, so Huogu released his magic power while flying to search the ground.
The dragon's super sensory ability prompted Hogu to turn slightly sideways during flight.
It was such a tiny movement that allowed Hogu to dodge the two dark red beams of light coming from below.
There are no elements or skills, it is just a spray of magic power, but the power and speed are particularly terrifying.
In the dense green forest, a dark purple giant poked its head out of the soil.
The butterfly that had just fired the magic beam flapped its wings gently and flew to the same height as the dragon.
This time the butterfly is no longer a hanging ornament behind the giant.
Lu Yu clicked his tongue in surprise: "This butterfly has never used such powerful magic when dealing with us, nor has it acted so smartly."
"Perhaps the state it needs to deal with is different from that of giants. Facing opponents who want to invade from the sky, butterflies will exert their true power?"
Lulutis murmured.
