Combined with Lu Yu's special words when chatting not long ago, Noel had already thought about the direction in which this new knowledge could be used. He couldn't help but think divergently, his soothing eyebrows suddenly raised, and the smile that filled his face The joy and excitement gradually dissipated, replaced by thoughtful deepness.
Staring at the staff and gently stroking his chin, Noel's eyes narrowed slightly.
wrong!
Noel took the staff and played with it. The solid feeling in his hand made his thoughts flow more smoothly. In an instant, he laughed calmly again.
"You almost made me laugh... This is no longer a simple gift, it's too precious."
Neither Silence nor Phoebe could understand Noel's muttering, but the next second, they heard Noel order in an unprecedented serious tone in a voice that only two people could hear clearly: "From the Silent One" Select a group of people who have the most knowledge on magic to conduct an initial analysis of it."
Xiao Jingjing interjected: "Your Excellency Lu Yu is willing to share this immature skill with us. Maybe... immaturity is just a cover."
"I know what you want to say, but if he is willing to give it to me, it is two different things than if I ask him." Noel waved his hand, "He has provided enough help. If we don't even have the foundation to explore and study, , Sligo is so disappointing.”
Silence nodded in agreement: "I will quickly arrange manpower for Your Majesty and keep confidentiality."
Noel asked: "Is there anything else that hasn't been said about Dawn Territory?"
"There are many more..."
"That's it. After things here are over, you can talk to me alone." Noel patted Phoebe on the shoulder, sat back in the chair, and crossed his legs lazily, "How are you? How do you feel? ?"
For example, primary school teachers often ask students to write their reflections after reading.
"If Your Majesty wants to show off your ability to make friends, then we are sincerely convinced."
"Show off, I said it as if I need to prove something to you guys." Noel responded sarcastically, "When will I brag to you about what happened in bed... Hey, hey, what are you doing with your head down? I thought You are already very familiar with this, and you are so shy, as if it was the first day you met me."
Noel, who controlled the rhythm of the conversation, changed to a calm tone: "I just want you to know clearly that while Sligo is being restrained by the chaotic internal strife, forces like the Dawn Leader are silently strengthening themselves. , and the path they chose is exactly what we keep saying, to upgrade magic and adapt to the times. With all due respect, Sligo has not been able to achieve this goal since the magic wave began. We have been distracted by too many things. , this is bad news.”
Looking back on the past two years, the silent ones remain silent.
"But there is also good news. In the entire Mera continent, apart from the Dawn Territory, there are not many forces that can steadily promote magic upgrades." Noel paced, "We still have a chance. Please note that time waits for no one, as powerful as Mei La Lias is also falling apart under the tide, Sligo is facing another test, I don’t want to be restricted anymore, I need trust, absolute trust.”
These words are not only addressed to the Silent people present who have different ideas from their own, but also to the Silent people who stand on their side and complete their identity transformation.
The silent people at the scene were all deep in thought. Noel said nothing more. He snapped his fingers, and the attendant on the second floor of the Forbidden Demon Exhibition Hall activated the switch, and the door slowly opened.
The eyes of the silent ones followed his leaving figure until the door was completely closed and the room returned to silence, and sighs could be heard vaguely.
"What does Your Majesty plan to do with them?"
Silence wanted to take off his mask and talk to Noel, but he stopped him with his hand.
"You make the decision, these are your people."
"What if I decide to kill them?"
Noel glanced deeply into the eyes under the silent mask and replied expressionlessly: "If you don't want me to do the same to you one day in the future, it's best not to."
The corners of the mouth under the mask of silence curved: "Your Majesty, are you a little merciful? They plan to use you as a puppet."
"Their plans and demands are retarded. Some want me to be a saint like Laurent, some want me to be the legendary emperor of Melias, and some want me to achieve an unprecedented unification of Mela...not so much a puppet. , it would be better to say that they were immersed in a game of house. They were so involved in the game that they forgot that I was not a puppet and had my own thoughts. In terms of crime, rebellion was not even a thing, it was just a blasphemy and an offense. King. Maybe there are more radical and vicious opinions among them, but I can also ignore them... For the sake of protecting Sligo, being punished as traitors is too cruel to them.
At the end, Noel added: "Their work is very innovative. Remember to ask the clerk to record it in detail. Future bards may draw wonderful inspiration from it."
Silence tried hard to suppress his smile, already overflowing with respect in his heart, and bowed to see Noel off.
She vaguely sensed that Noel's accelerated pace of centralization was for a larger plot, but unfortunately, she couldn't see through it.
Maybe……
Silence's thoughts drifted to the Dawn Leader: "Perhaps Gluttony knows what kind of big thing he wants to do."
But... how big will it be?
…
…
In the morning light, in front of the drawing board in Lulu's room, Lulu murmured and repeated: "The details of the summoning manual must be included, and the summons must be included. Other summons must not be included... Just these three details ,Is it right?"
Lu Yu glanced down at Lulu, who was sitting on his lap, writing down requests on the drawing board with a pen, then quickly raised his head, looked left and right, and listened.
He mentioned it for a moment, but she didn't show up, which made Lu Yu feel that his last warning was effective.
Lulu, who was concentrating on the ideation process, held the charcoal pen and quickly started writing on the canvas. One second it was a circle, or a bunch of chaotic lines, and the next second there was a vague concrete shape and outline. Almost every time you blink, the details on the canvas will become a little richer, making the brain can't help but think... How can the effect in front of you be achieved after the previous and next strokes are dropped?
Lu Yu decided not to challenge her weaknesses and let her mind go. Kicking seemed to be her habit when painting. Once she entered the state, her hands and feet couldn't stop. Lu Yu's thighs as cushions had been intimate with her calves for countless times. touch.
Comparing Lulu in his memory, Lu Yu vaguely felt that she was a little taller than when everyone returned to Meira. However, measuring height is a topic that is easy to get rid of, so Lu Yu and Sera didn't mention it once.
"Maybe we can wait secretly after she falls asleep..." Lu Yu thought to himself.
"The sketch is ready, let's take a look." Lulu put down the pen proudly, "If you are satisfied, I will help you add more details."
If it weren't for the realistic style of painting, it would be more of a breakthrough in vertical painting for two-dimensional mobile games than a design idea for a statue.
Lu Yu, holding the summoning manual, had his back against the "ritual vortex", the symbol of the summoning ceremony. In the unfolded summoning manual, half of Xu Yu's head and part of his wings were revealed, like a promotional image for a whack-a-mole game.
The self in Lulu's paintings is dignified and steady, and with the composition, she seems to be able to imagine some "divinity". Everything is fine, but she doesn't look like her real self...
"It doesn't matter whether you look like the real you or not. The most important thing is that you are handsome!" Lulu emphasized. "The expressions of the statues of Sera and I don't look like the real us either."
Lulu, who was talking to her with her head raised, had intense eyes, as if she was expecting something. Seeing Lu Yu's blank face, she simply closed her eyes.
A very good hint, the fluttering eyelashes, the blush due to shyness, and the slightly shaking body huddled in his arms.
She teased: "Sela knows what to do, how about you?"
Lu Yu responded to Lulu with actions, and there was no problem with his own understanding.
When was the last time you hugged Lulu so tightly? Lu Yu couldn't remember clearly. The close bodies made each other feel their beating hearts, and the breath they exhaled became more and more hot. Lulu was trembling slightly, and her little hands with nowhere to rest were hanging limply, as if gave up thinking.
"Lulu, there was an accident regarding the explosive laboratory..."
It's a bad habit not to knock on the door, but with their current relationship, it doesn't seem that this step is necessary?
In short, Sierra was stunned when she pushed the door in. She quickly closed the door first, and then stared at the two guys who slowly separated. Her lips were trembling, and it took a long time to hold back a sentence.
"It's daytime, let's do things first!" Sera said angrily, "You must be ashamed of Sigrid teasing you about being 'professional'!"
Lulu's eyes were blurred, she was playing with her fingers and looking at the drawing board, but she said nothing.
This is the first time she has been so close to Lu Yu...
"Let's talk about burning down the laboratory." Lu Yu hinted, "Sela said, not during the day."
Sierra covered her face, she hoped that next time she would understand other knowledge instantly.
Lulu asked: "What surprises can happen in the experiment? With the concept and drawings already in place, the civil engineering team should be able to complete it well, right?"
"It has nothing to do with ability, it's just a lack of materials." Sera explained, "Sigrid checked the inventory and found that the number of magic-forbidden and magic-suppressing stones is close to the warning value. The existing amount of materials can only guarantee a few magic-forbidden areas in Dawn. If damage occurs, it can be repaired immediately, and it cannot support the construction of a huge explosion laboratory."
"If we still urgently need to build it, the explosive laboratory can be completed, but the strategic storage of forbidden demons will be at the bottom. This resource is not easy to find."
Lu Yu pondered: "In Mela, what is the reasonable price for bartering for magic-forbidden stones or other magic-forbidden materials?"
"It depends on what the owner wants." Serra said, "The pricing power is in the hands of the other party, otherwise how can it be said to be the top barter material."
Lulu held her chin: "In that case, let Sigrid go to Broken Gold City to make an announcement..."
"No." Lu Yu and Sera stopped them together.
Lulu's eyes widened: "What's wrong?"
"If outsiders know that it is the Dawn Territory who wants to obtain the Forbidden Demon Stone, the price we have to pay will definitely be higher than imagined. Not only must we meet the other party's first price, but we may also need to meet additional prices. It is inevitable to raise the price from the ground up. "." Lu Yu and Sera looked at each other, "It's best to leave this matter to Mi Lai."
Lu Yu pondered: "After Huogu and the others come back, you can also ask them if there is a good way to find the forbidden magic mineral veins. The dragon should be very sensitive to these, right?"
Get up, eat breakfast and finish coding for you, next... understand?
