Chapter Twenty-Five: The Challenge from the Armor
When Lu Yu's words came out, the air around him seemed to stagnate, and the whole room was surprisingly quiet.
There was an inexplicable embarrassment in the atmosphere, but Lu Yu did not retreat.
What he said was that it was the water that was spilled, and it was impossible to take it back, not to mention that Lu Yu didn't want to take it back at all.
That's exactly what he's always wanted to say.
Although it may sound like it will make people feel a little overwhelmed, but for Lu Yu, this will definitely be a promise to protect with life.
"Why do you talk so much......
The corners of Mulan's mouth twitched slightly inadvertently, and her originally good-looking eyebrows were also slightly frowned.
Lu Yu's words can be described as earth-shattering, which surprised Mulan.
And Lu Yu's unwavering eyes were exactly what made her feel embarrassed too.
"You guard the Great Wall, and I'll guard you."
This kind of talk, if it is just a verbal talk, Mulan will just take it as a joke and laugh it off.
However, he couldn't see any confusion in Lu Yu's eyes.
"Because, I don't want to see you hurt again, and I don't want to see you die."
Shattered armor, stray hair, weak body, pale countenance, flowing blood.
It was a scene that Lu Yu didn't want to see again.
War can hurt people and kill people, Lu Yu understands this.
But the only thing he didn't want to see was his steely body, facing an enemy thousands of times his size.
Mulan, you are not a god, and it is not just you who should protect everything.
If you are the sword that guards the world, then I am the armor that guards you.
"Mulan, since you like to eat this porridge, I will make one for you in the future."
Lu Yu also slowly stood up.
What you want to say has already been said, and even if you say more, it will only be a repetition of what you have said.
“...... Good. ”
If it was just on this point, Mulan would naturally gladly agree.
However, she still couldn't digest everything Lu Yu said just now.
Wait, what did he just call himself?
When Mulan came back to her senses, Lu Yu had already left, and she took the bowl and spoon with her.
"No big, no small......"
Mulan smiled wryly and shook her head.
Lu Yu's temperament is really similar to himself.
......
"Whew."
After walking out of Mulan's house, Lu Yu let out a long breath, and at the same time stopped and looked back.
This time, Mulan doesn't seem to be angry, right?
Moreover, when he left, he called her Mulan directly.
When he came back to his senses, he couldn't help but feel his heart beating.
It's a little too intimate.
I don't know if Mulan has noticed.
However, your mission is also completed, right?
Anyway, judging from the last sentence, Mulan should not be as depressed as yesterday.
Thinking of what Hua Mulan said to herself just now, Lu Yu realized that between the two of them, their thoughts were very similar.
It turned out that they were all worried about whether the other party would care.
"Ding! Complete the Hidden Quest to Cook for Mulan and reward you with gold*10000 and Mulan's opinion increased by 20! ”
It was rare to hear the broadcast of the system, and Lu Yu felt a little nostalgic for a while.
"Lu Yu."
Just as Lu Yu walked in the direction of the kitchen, intending to wash the dishes and spoons, a somewhat cold voice interrupted him.
"Armor?"
Lu Yu stopped, not only because the armor stopped him, but also because of the chill that made him throb a little.
"Yes...... Can I help you? ”
Did that chill just now emanate from the armor's body?
But why......
"Lu Yu, I have something I want to talk to you about."
Armor looked around for a moment before speaking lightly.
"What did Mulan tell you just now?"
In the armor's blue eyes, there was a slight flicker, staring at Lu Yu tightly.
If there is a sense of coercion, it invades Lu Yu's whole body, as if to say, if you dare to play any tricks, I will kill you.
"Uh...... Sister Mulan praised the porridge I cooked for being delicious. ”
Lu Yu raised the bowl in his hand and smiled awkwardly.
The look of the armor always made him feel a little wrong, huh?
Could it be that he wants to do it?
But I didn't provoke him.
"Is that all there is to it?"
The armor's eyes became more and more cold, and his tone became more serious, and the faint demonic intent around his body gradually began to condense.
"That'...... Did I say anything else? ”
Lu Yu was a little scared, this is a sign that he is going to do something?
"Didn't you say to Mulan, you guard the Great Wall, and I will protect you?"
When the armor said this, the air froze for a moment.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.
"Armor, how do you know?"
Lu Yu secretly glanced at the armor and asked cautiously.
"Ahem, I happened to be passing by and heard it."
The armor is worthy of being armor, the eyes are not red and the heart is not beating, and the expression is not a little embarrassed after being dismantled.
"Oh, what a coincidence."
Lu Yu teased.
It turns out that the armor can also eavesdrop?
I feel that his cold image is a bit ruined.
"Don't talk about this, I just want to ask you if everything you said to Mulan is your true thoughts, or is it a joke."
The armor's expression returned to its previous coldness and seriousness.
However, the question he asked was no less than a dilemma for Lu Yu.
I always feel that no matter which answer you choose, you will definitely be "educated" by armor, and Lu Yu has such an intuition.
However, compared to this, Lu Yu was even more reluctant to answer that everything he said was just a "joke".
A manly man, as long as he says it, it is the water that is spilled, and he will not take it back.
"It's my own true thoughts, what's wrong?"
Lu Yu swallowed a mouthful of saliva and pretended to be calm and said.
At this time, if you soften down, I am afraid that there will be no good fruit to eat.
But, armor, aren't you Mulan's comrade-in-arms? It's the same as being jealous.
"Hmph."
Snorted coldly, as if he was a little surprised by Lu Yu's hard attitude, and his gaze became interested.
"Do you think you have that strength?"
Kai looked directly into Lu Yu's eyes and continued to ask.
"Sister Mulan is not sure that she will protect the Great Wall forever, but she has always held on, maybe I don't have the superhuman strength like you, but I will also stick to my promise."
For some reason, as soon as he explained, Lu Yu was not so nervous.
After all, this is his true thoughts, and there is no need to hide it.
However, saying it in front of the armor always made him feel weird.
"If that's what you really think......"
"Then, let me see if you have that ability."
The voice of the armor became awe-inspiring, and the blue blade in his hand was stuck horizontally in the earth, his face was solemn, and the meaning of the demon path around him became more and more intense.
"Lu Yu, my name is Kai, and I challenge you."
The armor's gaze, as if it was a sharp blade in his hand, firmly locked on the landing feather.
