Lu Yu specially changed his disguise and entered the Summoning Temple for the first time in a long time. He waited for a long time and finally saw Orkus coming online.
Orcus's surprise only lasted for a few seconds before he laughed.
"It's finally normal. It's rare. It's rare."
After exchanging the information obtained during this period, both parties entered into intense brainstorming mode.
After Lu Yu killed Kalikaz, the snake-man pioneer, no new pioneers have appeared in the Summoning Temple. Big Butterfly has hardly appeared recently. Red Hair suddenly disappeared in the past month. The last time she appeared was with Orkus After exchanging a lot of summoning experience and trying to obtain the extremely special summoning system of plastic summoning objects, it was a pity that the price offered by the red hair could not satisfy Orkus.
"The red hair has enlightened himself and is suddenly willing to trade with you." Lu Yu clicked his tongue in surprise.
"I don't think so. It's more like she had to face something special, so she wanted to increase the number of cards in her hand. She didn't mention it again after the negotiation didn't work out. It seemed like she was doing it casually."
Soft white light flickered outside the temple door, and a light green and white silk gown came into view, followed by long flowing red hair and a gauze that always covered the face.
This means Cao Cao, Cao Cao has arrived.
The red-haired man, who had not appeared for a long time, was stunned for a moment, but still slowly floated into the palace and came to Lu Yu and Orkus very naturally.
"New pioneer?" Although the red hair asked, he turned his head away as if he didn't care much about the reply.
Lu Yu winked at Orkus, who immediately understood and nodded with a smile.
"What do you call it?"
"sea bass."
The red-haired man's eyes, which were not covered by the veil, condensed: "You are not from the sea tribe."
"Then you can't take fish as your name?" Lu Yu said helplessly, "They all call me that."
The red-haired man looked at Orkus: "I didn't expect that I haven't visited during this time, and there is another potential competitor in the summons. Your briquette companion has not shown up for a long time. Is it really possible that something unexpected happened?"
Orkus raised the corners of his mouth and was overjoyed: "I believe he is still well."
"Can we continue talking about that deal?"
"I cannot accept the price you gave me." Orkus shook his head, "If there is no more suitable template, Shaping will not participate in the exchange."
"Really, what a shame."
Noticing that the red-haired man's gaze lingered briefly on him, Lu Yu thought that she would send him an invitation. Unexpectedly, the red-haired man suddenly turned his face away, drifted straight to the dome of the temple, and closed his eyes.
Orkus was not surprised. He said: "The red hair seems to regard the temple as a place of meditation. This is always the case every time she appears."
"But why didn't she ask me if I wanted to trade?"
Lu Yu's concern made Orkus speechless.
"Does she think I don't have good templates and knowledge?"
"Be bold, she may look down on you."
Lu Yu had a question mark on his face, how come everyone he knows now knows how to use fire? Orkus, you weren't like this before.
Looking at the red-haired man who had entered the meditative mode, the strange desire for victory in Lu Yu's heart disappeared. He fist-bumped with Orkus and immediately logged off.
"You seem to be able to maintain a good relationship with every pioneer. Do you plan to rely on this to become the only one?" The red-haired man suddenly said with his eyes closed in deep thought.
Orkus said disapprovingly: "Why do you think I am interested in Youyi?"
"No one can resist this temptation."
"Now there is someone standing in front of you." Orkus sneered, "What I am interested in is the vast and endless knowledge. Summoning is a mine, and I have been digging in this mine for a long time. This Everything satisfies me and makes my life fulfilling. I have devoted the first half of my life to it, and the visible second half of my life will also be like this. All I want is to be able to see where the veins extend. As for where the mine belongs, not my business."
"Sounds a little stupid."
"With all due respect, at your age, you are not qualified to criticize whether the decisions I have made are smart or stupid. What I have seen and heard is a hundred times or a thousand times better than yours. I pride myself on my extraordinary talents and believe that I am the one who is calling me." It was a lonely journey until one day I realized that there is a sky outside the world and there are people outside the world."
Orkus put his hand on the book, his eyes blurred, as if he was thinking about it: "I sat down with the summoner who amazed me, and we talked a lot, who were supposed to be enemies. At that moment, I suddenly realized Come, the lonely journey is over, and someone will go forward with me. No matter who is the pioneer, the knowledge in this mine will be revealed. If his path is dark, I will hold the torch high and move forward. If in my hand When the fire goes out, he will give me a little spark to rekindle the candle.”
"You think this is stupid?"
Orkus's voice was as loud as a bell, and the red hair was silent.
"The geniuses I have seen over a long period of time are like crucian carp crossing the river. They are arrogant, flamboyant, and high-spirited. Each one of them feels that he is the darling of God, and will surely achieve great achievements that are unimaginable by the world and unmatched by future generations. However, Time has passed, and most of them have long since lost their aura of 'genius' and have become mediocre, and they have not even been able to touch my back."
"Redhead, you are just one of the better geniuses I have ever seen. In my eyes, you are no different from them." Orkus raised his head, "When will you truly understand the meaning of pioneer? Talk to me about 'unity' and 'authority' again, kid."
The red-haired man was still speechless, and the temple fell silent. Only the wind blowing from nowhere was whistling in the temple, making the wind chimes dotted in the corridors jingle.
"If this world was filled with the non-existent Summoner friend you described, there wouldn't be so many worries."
The redhead murmured in a low voice that no one could hear.
…
…
In the hotel room, a burly middle-aged man dressed in black was held down by Lu Lu's magic power. He knelt on his knees and could not raise his head.
Lu Yu, who returned to reality, was stunned when he saw this scene.
"He's watching us."
Sera's concise and concise explanation let Lu Yu know the identity of the man in black. He signaled Lu Lu to loosen his grip and calmly stared at the unfortunate guy.
The man in black gritted his teeth and was prepared to be beaten or abused. It was obvious that he was a tough guy as he accepted death calmly.
"I know who sent you here. I won't embarrass you. Go back and tell him. If there is a next time, I will announce loudly to the audience after the competition starts that Young Master Ricard has voyeurism. I believe that Seta, no, is the whole People in Durderan are happy to talk about Dabi's special personal interests over dinner."
Not long after, the man in black appeared in the garden of a manor. Kneeling on one knee, he gingerly told Rikar what he had heard.
The magician next to him had an angry look on his face and was about to rush out the door, but Rikar held out his hand to stop him.
"Lord Ricard, he is blaspheming your reputation and insulting your family."
"Winning off the field is a matter of fact. I don't want that stupid guy to have an excuse. Since he wants to win, he must win thoroughly and make him realize his insignificance."
"Moreover, everything you are doing now will only embarrass me in front of two beautiful ladies. It takes time to build a good personal image, and you have to pay attention to these small details."
"Everyone who was sent out before should stay away and ensure that they know their itinerary. Excessive magic perception is prohibited."
"By the way, let the hotel owner use the food I provide to deliver meals to them every day. Remember, they must keep it strictly confidential. Only in this way, when they find out, will they be full of surprises and understand better. What thoughtfulness is.”
A servant hurriedly came near Rikar.
"What's wrong?" Ricard added some honey to the tea and was about to think about his next plan.
"Master Rikar, please go home immediately."
Ricard sighed helplessly, patted his wrinkled trouser legs, and waved his hand impatiently: "I know, I know, arrange the carriage and horses, I'll go back right away."
Rikar knew why his father was looking for him. His every move would always be reported to him, and his father had never had a good impression of wild mages who had no status.
Sure enough, as soon as he entered the main hall of the castle, the old Rikar, who was as majestic as a tiger, pointed to the seat not far away with a cold face and motioned Rikar to sit down.
"Are you unhappy?" Old Rikar said straight to the point.
"I have read the information of those two people. Regardless of whether they are wild mages or not, their talents are enough to give birth to outstanding children for our family." Ricard continued, focusing on the traitor, "I can't help those who have been cultivated under the high wall. The eldest ladies who came out are not interested, they are not even as interesting as the dolls. Even if you get married, you should think about the future of the Ricard family, I mean...the future of the children."
"Do you think I'm going to talk to you about those two lowly wild mages?" Old Ricard glared at his son, "It's your business how you want to play, and how your heirs decide. When you grow up, you can have your own idea."
The sudden loosening of his voice made Ricard tremble. He didn't know what evil wind was blowing today, which made his father tend to be possessed by evil spirits. He was not like this before.
"I don't care if you want to play with those two women, but this time Star Reacher, you must advance to the final stage."
Rikar wanted to say that with his own strength, this would not be a problem, but his father's tough tone made him unable to help but ask: "What news have you heard?"
"Elleg is determined to participate in this Star Reacher Competition."
Rikar's mind was still filled with Sera and Lulu, but when he heard his father's name, he suddenly woke up.
"Alegre...can't be that Alegre, right?"
"Do you think I would call you back specifically for other guys with the same name besides Black Flash?"
