After ending his daily communication with Sera, Lu Yu leaned on his chair and stared at the ceiling, lost in thought.
There is an obvious loss of sound in daily communications with Lulu and Sera, because the noise caused by the magic power disturbance is becoming more and more serious, and the information transmission effect of the communication circle is being interfered by the increasing magic power tide.
In just this month, they witnessed the evolution of new monsters on several continents around Mera and how they were immersed in magic for the first time. Later, they saw the gradual abundance of magic in a place where magic was lacking and then re-emerged. A magnificent sight brought to life.
It seems that Lulu and Sera are not ready to end their observation outside. After all, there is so much worth witnessing and recording in a major event like the magic wave that may only be encountered once in a lifetime.
Lu Yu repeatedly told himself not to think too much, but the scene when Sera and Lulu were alone always appeared in his mind. This made him wonder if Sera was suffering in the same way when he and Lulu were dealing with the impregnated spirit. .
"I feel like you rarely smile lately."
Xu, who was "swimming" in the study with Xiao An in his arms, turned sideways for a moment, stared at Lu Yu for a long time, and then spoke.
"Have it?"
"I am your engraved summon, and we have the same mind." Xu said in a moment, "This is the first time I see you having such a headache with summons. The previous ideas and creations always came naturally, but now there is no progress for a whole month."
What Xu Yu said was not entirely correct. In fact, it was not only Lu Yu who had a headache, but also Orkus.
The two summoning pioneers faced the new summoning system and tried to create corresponding summoning templates, but they both failed.
The current performance of the summoning ceremony made them feel reassured and confused.
What is reassuring is that once the summoned objects in the old summoning system are accurately described, they will be summoned accurately, and there will be no mismatch of goods, making it truly stable and without deviation.
The trouble is that they didn't get anything new to play.
There is no doubt that the existing summoned objects are permutations and combinations in the material library of the world consciousness, but Lu Yu did not see anything that made his eyes shine and was worthy of Segro's special sigh when he left.
The factors that determine the duration of summons and the strength of summons seem to be the same as before. If there are no changes in type, quality, and gameplay, what has World Consciousness brought to the summoning genre?
It can't just be "I have made an unprecedented major update, and now I announce that every summon can be completed normally and without errors", right?
"Don't be discouraged!" The fog demon in Xiao An's body turned into a small octopus, waving its tentacles vigorously, as if to cheer Lu Yu up.
Lu Yu gently touched the location of the mist demon with his finger, and smiled as he watched her retreat a little bit with the dent in her skin: "I'm not discouraged. Compared to my predecessors who had struggled to explore the experience and rules of summoning, this is nothing. As long as I calm down a little bit, I will continue to try.”
Compared to Lu Yu, who was temporarily frustrated, Chenxi Leader's progress during this period was very good.
Olga from the horticulture and agriculture team led the team members to designate a planting area and began to officially plant various excellent plants and crops that can provide materials for the Dawn Territory. The planting of the seeds purchased from the Green Shade Caravan has shown good results so far. Olga, who has sensed the vitality several times, firmly believes that she will be able to taste this brand-new crop that has experienced the mutation of the magic wave in the coming year.
Members of the civil engineering team completed the decoration of the designated area based on the drawings provided by Lulu. In order to step inside the castle with Lulu, share the joy of "having a home", and praise her and Yucao's outstanding design capabilities, Lu Yu only listened to Yucao's report but did not set foot in it.
Serra, who is still outside, has assigned a new task: to create Twilight City.
After seeing the drawings of Twilight City, Yucao was eager to try it. Lu Yu, who was standing aside, asked: "Do you think the structure of Twilight City is great?"
Yucao shook his head repeatedly: "Based on the knowledge I learned in the Theocracy, Twilight City is undoubtedly not suitable for human habitation, unless you want to get lost or make yourself crazy... Sir, I am very curious and designed this What do the constructed people want?”
"Except for the first and second floors of Twilight City, the rest of the floors are very uncomfortable. Here, up and down, left and right will gradually blur as you move, losing the basic sense of space; the colors of the interior are uncoordinated and weird. Many places can even lose the sense of distance if you stare at them for too long; the Dusk City is mirrored up and down to fake light sources and blur the day and night, distorting the concept of time... I can’t think of what kind of life would like this magical environment.”
Lu Yu, who knew Sera's plan, pursed his lips and smiled: "You will know in the future."
If anything shocked Lu Yu during this month, it must have been the news that Milai, who was far away in Wupu City, had obtained the northern territory of Solon through the Dawn Messenger channel.
The northern border of Solon is now like a black hole, and the army of the Divek faction has never returned. Since the impregnation of the spirit, the vast land that has become an uninhabited land has become lifeless without the activity of messengers, and outsiders cannot know what is happening in it.
How could the Millai people in Wupu City in the south-central part of Solon learn about the news in the no-man's land so quickly?
During the conversation, Lu Yu learned that Milai, through his identity as a businessman, had developed a centurion from the Dewek camp as his downline.
"It's not easy to win over a centurion. He is truly a former incarnation of glory."
Lu Yu's emotion in the communication received a smiling reply from Mi Lai.
"It's not difficult. It only requires twelve silver coins and a box of good wine."
"So cheap?" Lu Yu was shocked.
"My lord, you seem to have forgotten that only when you are immersed in disaster can you go away."
Lu Yu suddenly realized.
Solon's large-scale farming areas are firstly the vast plain area in the north, and secondly the central and south-central areas. But now, the northern border has been immersed in the baptism of death, and the central and southern regions have been included in the Green Shade Flag set up by Tanya after the war began. What Dewek really owns is a small amount of grain-producing areas in the central region.
As the possibility of intensified war intensity increases, the crisis of food shortage has caused food prices to rise.
Zenil is supported by the sea route from Tanya. All Dewek can do is rely on his status as the nominal king of Solon to control the trade channels with the three major countries, and continuously relieve the pressure through imports.
According to the description of the centurion who had just retired from the war in the north, they met Roye, who was known as the "New King of the Forgotten Land" in the north. Due to the mutual restraint of high-level magicians, they successfully connected with Roye's legion. war.
"Their fearlessness of death is rarely seen in their lives. The steel knife slashed their bodies, and blood spurted out like spring water. This should have been a dead person. We also witnessed them falling to the ground heavily, and then carelessly Use stepping on it, but..."
"The people who fell to the ground hugged our legs with their blood-stained hands. They were obviously flesh and blood, but their fingers left white scratches on our leg armor, and the fingertips dug into our legs. The flesh and blood were blurred, and the bones were exposed.”
"I looked into that person's eyes... God... I can't describe the shock in my heart at that moment. There was fire in their eyes, and before they died, they screamed in distorted voices, cursing us... They said that we abandoned them. ……so…"
"If you want to die, let's die together!"
"They must have been so blinded by the devil that they couldn't recognize us as the ones who came to rescue them."
The centurion shivered from time to time as he recounted the story. The battle left him with severe psychological trauma.
He witnessed with his own eyes ordinary people who had not experienced systematic training and were extremely weak and rushed towards the army representing Solon with tattered weapons.
These people were chopped up by the sergeants and were crushed by them without any care. However, the remaining people seemed to feel no fear and immediately blocked the steel knife with their flesh and blood bodies, just to buy one more second for the people behind them.
Even if he died, he would open his mouth and viciously bite off a piece of flesh from the sergeant's unsuspecting neck.
The centurion saw a companion's throat being bitten off by the swarming crowd at a very close distance, and even saw the torn flesh and blood being chewed and swallowed.
The high-level magician got rid of the entanglement and returned to the battlefield to release high-density magic, bombing the ground into a mess. Amidst the loud noise, many people were torn apart and scattered on the ground.
On the battlefield, ordinary people without systematic training will most likely panic when faced with this powerful blow, turn around and run away, leading to a great rout.
However, these people under Roye did not. They dragged their broken bodies and continued to charge regardless of pain and fatigue...
The centurion felt that he was not facing a living person, but a group of walking corpses that were no different from the soaked spirits.
"The power of anger..." Lu Yu was sighing when he listened, but suddenly he heard...
"A magician took away several corpses before leaving, and found a potion in them that can enhance perception and physical fitness in a short period of time. It makes people extremely excited, which naturally means that they will not be easily afraid." Mirai Said, "Judging from the current situation in the North, it is impossible for them to have sufficient materials to prepare a huge amount of magic potions, so there is only one possibility... This is a natural hallucinogen, and there are indeed many of these in the North. Plants, but the consequences of taking them without refining them basically means overdraft and death.”
The statue beeped, but Lu Yu put his fist on his forehead, lowered his head, and did not change his posture for a long time.
After a long time, he cast his gaze out the window, looking at the red clouds filling the sky, watching the sun's orange afterglow spilling into the room, dragging Xiao An's shadow very long, Lu Yu's heart suddenly became quiet.
The dragon's heart will become as hard as iron due to decay.
The Siren cannot turn the magic of this world into the spirit of speech that he can control.
"It's going to rain, and my mother wants to get married..." Lu Yu murmured, "Let him be."
"Mi Lai, there is no need to collect anything about Solon in the future. Let me know the results after they come out. And... the same is true for the one in the north." Lu Yu said seriously, "I am more concerned about the magic tide and magic now. It is closely related to our Dawn Leader."
Milai responded with a smile: "As you wish, just in time, I collected a piece of information about summoning, which should be helpful to adults."
The specialized summoning template that Lu Yu provided to Meira after the Disaster of Infused Spirits had fluctuated not long ago. Not only did a large number of incorrect items appear once again, careful summoners also discovered that whether it was summoning speed or magic power consumption, The templates are nowhere near as good as before.
Lu Yu checked the time and found that it was the key point when the Summoning Temple disappeared and world consciousness injected new power into the Summoning School.
After the system is updated, the original template does not adapt to the version, and it is inevitable that it will not be smooth to use.
"Although you became famous in the summons duel, and even beat several summoning masters to shame and dare not take the lead, their respective families still can't let go of the honor of becoming the leader of the school, and they have elected new ones. Representatives came out to grab their spots.”
"They questioned in public that you had tampered with the template, and your actions were despicable. They were whitewashing their family and belittling your contribution."
Lu Yu sighed, it was really endless.
The honor of being the leader of a school is so tempting. People are attracted by the magic power, and no one wants to fight for it.
Now he is too lazy to be angry about this. Compared with this, he cares more about what magical crops the mutant seeds of the agricultural team can grow?
How will the craftsman team feel after Lulu explains the theory of "magic encryption"?
Can the new healing agent developed by the medical team surpass Lulu's "bitter water"?
Are everyone in the civil engineering team working too hard and do they need to be forced to take breaks?
What new surprises will Wallen and Waller bring to the cultivation and transformation of slimes?
Will Judith's improvements to the beverages provide more choices of fine wines in Dawnland?
When Lu Yu put these issues in the same position as the leader of the summoning school, he really felt that this name and this honor were meaningless.
The empty compliments and compliments are far less sweet than the fruit that the gardening team picked from the tree and handed to themselves; it is not as eye-catching as the endless team of the livestock team driving fat and strong pasture animals across the hills; It is better for the craftsmen team to pick up the forging hammer and sweat like rain in front of the stove, and the "dang-dang" sound made by the forging hammer and iron felt is pleasant to the ear.
Being praised by everyone and worshiped by them has never been Lu Yu's pursuit.
Let the people around you live a better life, change and try to change more when you have the ability, inherit the legacy of the summoning pioneers, explore new powers and summarize them, and continue to flow for the summoning, this is what Lu Yu pursues of.
There is no contradiction between realizing his small personal dream and his ambition to call for recovery, and he is convinced that he is on the right path.
"Just don't jump in my face. They want those false reputations. Give it to them. Can you stop the clowns from performing on stage one after another?" Lu Yu said, "Gather the clowns together and put them in the open, far away." It’s better than pressing them down and scattering them in the dark.”
Milai continued to report: "Someone claims to have discovered a brand new summoning template, has no failure record for correct summoning, and has sold hundreds of scrolls. Does this need to be stopped? After all, ordinary people's summoning templates are probably better than yours... Too wild?"
Lu Yu covered his face: "Is this okay?"
Nowadays, the only way to fail the summons is to forcefully fill in the summoning conditions that do not match his own strength. This behavior, to Lu Yu, feels like someone in the game is taking the items given away by the system and selling them for a sky-high price.
Considering that there is no big problem with summoning templates, and doing so will definitely have a positive effect of drawing people into the trap...
"Mi Lai, help me spread the word."
"The general idea is that the summons has been revived. Even the glutton has lost its original powerful summons and must start to explore again."
“This is a vast world that urgently needs to be explored. Everyone is welcome to come in and explore together.”
