My summons are weird

276. Chapter 275. Homework assigned by Laurent

The figures approaching in the dark made the entire merchant team extremely uneasy, and the leading merchants tried to spend part of their goods and money to buy a "safety".

The members of the guard led by the tree branch are ready to fight, as long as the opponent continues to approach, they will launch a threat attack.

The prices shouted by the merchants are increasing. Those who have been active on the border of Solon all the year round know the rules of survival here. However, no one responded to their voices in the dark, and the black shadows on horseback were suffocatingly silent.

Lu Yu broke the rhythm of only businessmen shouting.

"You are skilled in equestrianism and excellent weapons. You are riding war horses that are common in Solon's country. You still have traces of magical fluctuations on your body. Considering the equipment you carry... When did Solon's knights come out to make extra money?"

"Idiot!" The ex-noble guard captain who had teased Lu Yu as the young master just now yelled.

It was too late for the merchant guards to glare at Lu Yu. They quickly raised the weapons in their hands and placed them across their chests. The magician's enhanced magic was released, and even the precious magic scroll was about to be triggered at any time.

"Sure enough, he is an ignorant young master, can such a thing be said!"

"He doesn't think that he is the only one who has keen observation and knows what kind of people they are?"

"So I rejected him from the beginning when he wanted to go with us. The people from the Pope City are really a burden... Today we will all be killed by this brainless guy!"

Hearing Lu Yu's words, the figures on horses in the darkness let out a burst of playful laughter. They no longer hid their figures, and entered the area illuminated by the fire little by little. The two corpses were captured by the magician behind the cavalry team. Throw it in front of everyone.

The guards didn't have time to mourn for the two companions who got along day and night, and the cavalry reined in and said coldly: "Originally we just wanted some wine money...now we want more."

As the captain of the guard, Uncle Shuzhi took a step forward and met the talking cavalry.

"We have dozens of people here. You can't kill them all. No matter which city-state you come from, attacking merchants is expressly forbidden. The lord will not tolerate your behavior. Once things are revealed, no merchant will pass through the city-state he manages. "

"Very good argument, but we have already killed your companions, and... someone in your team is too smart, so there is no need to talk about it."

The brilliance of magic illuminated the surroundings, and the cavalry hidden in the darkness appeared one after another, surrounding the caravan from all directions.

The leading cavalry captain stared at Lu Yu with contempt from the gap in his helmet: "I have killed many people who think you are smart."

Lu Yu asked seriously: "Have you killed many? How many... tens of thousands?"

The sound of heavy objects falling from the horse sounded one after another. The cavalry captain turned his head vigilantly and saw a scene he would never forget.

The two fourth-level magicians in the team were strangled by Xu Yu, and a steady stream of blood flowed from their mouths, noses, and eyes, gradually converging into a bright red blood sword. A pitch-black mist spewed out, obscuring sight from all directions. Every time he moved to a cavalryman, the black mist would gather and disperse, and for a brief moment when he lost his vision, a living life turned into a mummy.

Such a strange method made everyone terrified. The cavalry in charge of the encirclement at the rear launched an attack on the merchant team without knowing what happened in front. Leave everything to Lu Yu.

"You don't seem to be very strong. What you say is more arrogant than a dragon. This makes me think that you really have some amazing abilities."

While Lu Yu was speaking, the killing was still going on. As an engraved summoner, she had many attack methods, and the knights who met her couldn't predict what form the next blow would take. When the cavalry team of more than a dozen people was not long, there were only a few people left, and the moment of killing was like a wild beast admiring the struggle of its prey, allowing the scattered cavalry to gather together.

The cavalry captain had already heard the movement behind him, but he didn't dare to turn his head, because at some point, a huge khaki bowl appeared next to Lu Yu, and the fiery red Shougong was standing in the bowl right now. body, staring at him intently.

"Summoner..." the cavalry captain and the merchant guards who were dealing with the enemy on the other side realized it.

"The summoner who can summon two summoned objects... Who is this?"

The cavalry who charged to kill Xu Yu were torn off by Xu Yu's high-speed horses, and the horses were no match for Xu Yu's pair of miniature wings that seemed to be for display. This time, Xu didn't torture the fallen cavalry for a moment, but pierced their hearts cleanly with the blood sword.

The more blood absorbed, the more palpitating the fluctuation of magic power produced by the blood sword in Xu Yu's hand.

Isn't it about restraining the blood race? Why is the method so similar to the blood race?

Seeing Xu Yu's astonishing performance in the battle, Lu Yu became more and more puzzled, how did he use Orcus' dragon slayer so conservatively?

Even if the dragon slayer is specialized in suppressing dragons, it shouldn't only have that little strength...

"Could it be that the dragon slayer was passive and sabotage because of being dispersed?" Lu Yu thought of this possibility.

Xu Yu consulted Lu Yu with his eyes, and then set off to eliminate the knights that the merchant guards had not yet solved.

Shocked by Xu Yu's performance, the cavalry captain has lost the courage to resist, and the performance of Xu Yu's instant killing of two fourth-tier magicians has proved that he is doomed today.

The cavalry captain did not run away, he threw away the extra weapons on his body, leaving only a saber, then jumped off the horse, and walked slowly in front of Lu Yu.

"Don't you want to resist?" Lu Yu asked with interest.

"People who can summon two summons... there are only a handful of people in Meera. Being an enemy of someone like you will only make my death more miserable. There is no anger or pity in your eyes, and your indifference is like People who are used to life and death... People like us are just fish waiting to be slaughtered in the eyes of you... What happened today is just that we were unlucky and chose the wrong target."

Xu returned to Lu Yu's side in a moment, the blood sword in his hand exuded a strong smell of blood, which made the cavalry captain tremble a little.

The merchant escort settled the battle and watched Lu Yu talking with the cavalry captain in awe from a distance.

Lu Yu glanced back at them: "Gather the corpses and clean them up."

Then he turned his head and motioned for the cavalry captain to follow.

Entering the dark woods, the cavalry captain who had just accepted his fate couldn't help feeling a little lucky in his heart. This situation of being treated alone gave him the hope of surviving.

Seeing that there was no one around, Lu Yu dismissed his luck: "Answer my question seriously, and for the sake of your performance just now, I can give you a better way to die."

The cavalry captain struggled and asked, "Is there no other choice?"

"You have killed a lot of innocent people, you should have thought that one day you would end up like this."

The cavalry captain breathed a sigh of relief, and completely resigned to his fate: "Excuse me."

Lu Yu said: "Seeing that your speech is clear and your words and deeds are not rude, you must have received a certain amount of education. Why do you have to make trouble with the merchant team? These merchants will bring you some benefits in every city-state they pass through. It is your own decision to kill the chicken and get the eggs , or the meaning of your lord."

The cavalry captain said: "We seldom kill chickens to get eggs. Extortion of money is the most common thing here, and we generally only ask for money per head, never more."

"There are still rules, who made the rules?"

"Perhaps it was decided by the first person to do this. After that, businessmen will acquiesce to this standard and offer money when they encounter robbery. Most people come out to become robbers for money. We also know the truth of long water... business It is much better to charge for a long time than to kill the chicken and take the eggs, and the lord will not pursue it to the end."

"The words are so gentle, but people should have killed a lot, right?"

The cavalry captain said: "Actually, we only killed two teams, totaling no more than twenty people. They were all small caravans... It was because those businessmen revealed our identities and threatened us, so we did it as a last resort."

Lu Yu said coldly: "Do you think you are innocent?"

The cavalry captain also knew that he was being unreasonable, so he didn't reply.

Lu Yu asked again: "Are there many people doing this on the border of Solon?"

"As far as I know, there are more or less large city-states on the border with this kind of thing. A few large city-states on the northern border are strict in charge, but the rewards for the people below are good, so there is no need to do it. Like us... that's it. For a few coins, I can only eat sour and hard black bread every day..."

"The rewards vary greatly?"

"Depending on the mood and character of the lord, the lords of border city-states have many sources of money. Just renegotiating the tax amount with merchants and collecting more miscellaneous items in the name of protection can make a lot of money. Some lords are willing to spend more money to maintain order , so the people below will always be able to eat enough, but some lords... will occasionally withhold your coins, so as long as you don’t starve to death.”

"You don't dare to be angry with the lord, so you hit the ordinary people with your ideas?"

When I met knights maintaining order in a city-state before, the group of knights reminded Lu Yu to be careful ahead.

When checking Lu Yu's identity, these knights looked strange, and when they asked where they were going, they were hesitant to speak. Thinking about it now, these knights belonged to what the cavalry captain said was a strictly controlled city-state.

The major city-states on the border naturally have their own sources of news, and they are even more aware of knights pretending to be robbers to rob, but they can't explain it. Firstly, the border city-states watched and helped each other, and there was no guarantee that they would need each other's help one day; secondly, they were afraid that the lord of another city-state would be involved in this matter. Therefore, in the end, he could only remind Lu Yu, the Pope, to come out of the Pope City in a cryptic way, and the special person with the stamp of Bishop David on the certificate should be careful.

Seeing that Lu Yu fell into a long silence, the captain of the cavalry took a deep breath and summoned up the courage to ask, "Where did you come from... With such a powerful force, you should be able to reach your destination directly through an excellent riding monster, without having to follow a bunch of only Ordinary merchants who can walk mix together."

Lu Yu was very tolerant towards those who were about to die.

"The Pope City, actually I don't want to go with the caravan like this, but my teacher wants me to see the current situation on the border of Solon with my own eyes, and let me talk to him about my feelings after I go back... This is an assignment, I must complete it .”

Laurent arranged this job in private, even Sera and Lulu didn't know about it.

Lu Yu knew that Laurende wanted to teach him by example before he died, so that he could grow more comprehensively, so he honestly chose the easiest way to get the answer—follow the caravan, after all, the caravan has to follow all kinds of people. dealing with people.

The cavalry captain let out a long sigh: "So, I am unlucky?"

"So to speak, do you have any last words? I'm in a hurry."

The cavalry captain was silent for a while: "If you want to see what is going on at the border of Solon, you don't actually follow the caravan, just enter any city-state and see how the farmers and slaves are there."

"I'll check it out, do you have anything else to say?"

"No more, please."

Without yelling, the cavalry captain finally remembered his identity, straightened his crooked helmet, and waited for death to come.

After a while, he lightly waved the blood sword in his hand, followed Lu Yu and turned his head to leave.

The cavalry captain who stood still in place took a long time to separate his body and head. A gecko rushed over quickly, spat a mouthful of flames at his corpse, and squatted silently until the corpse was burned to ashes and the flames did not spread. It took four weeks before I returned with confidence.

When the guards saw Lu Yu's return, they looked unnatural. They poked each other with their hands, as if they were encouraging someone to do something.

The merchants were much smarter. They took out the best wine and the best silk in their goods, and came to Lu Yu with smiles on their faces. While thanking him for saving his life, they tested whether they could hire Protect yourself along the way.

Lu Yu rejected all of this, he went straight to Uncle Shuzhi, and asked: "You are planning the itinerary, right, how many city-states do you have to go through before you go to the ridge of Fuling Mountain?"

The guards didn't understand why Lu Yu had to follow the caravan with his strength. The beautiful and indifferent woman beside him spread her wings and swung the blood sword to bring about a lot of death. She could act by herself.

Uncle Shuzhi ordered someone to bring a map, checked it carefully, and replied: "We still have to go to the two city-states to bulk cargo, receive the goods, and join other caravans at the Blue Helm City on the border, and cross the ridge of the angry volcano together."

Uncle Shuzhi scrutinized Lu Yu's face carefully, then looked at the business leader who kept winking at him, and added: "If you want to go directly to the ridge of Fuling Volcano... we can save one city-state, I hope you can understand, Our income is tied to the merchants. If they earn less, we will lose a few slices of bread... Most of us have family members, and they are still waiting for us to take the coins back and exchange them for delicious milk, soft bread, Fun toys and nice new clothes…”

Lu Yu waved his hand: "It's okay, you can follow your rhythm, but when we pass by the two city-states, can we slow down a little bit, I have some homework to complete."
