Chapter 14 - The Noble Plan and the Stinky Flower
"In other words, our Grand Duke knows about these centaurs. It was only when he was happy to see the game between his two counts that he sat idly by and let the two counts fight with the barons in order to test which count was more suitable to participate in one of his plans? ”
"Yes."
Because the lord's palace was destroyed, it would take a while to repair it. So Lu Ming and the others lived, and the family knew that a lot of centaurs had been killed, and they were afraid that the remaining centaurs would retaliate, so they moved out of the house overnight.
After listening to Sham's interrogation of the centaur and getting the information, Lu Ming fell into deep thought.
What the Grand Duke's plan was, Lu Ming and the others didn't know. But one thing is clear to Lu Ming and Sham, that is, the Grand Duke and most of the nobles of Errebos are participating in the otherworldly summoning plan of Amani, the illegitimate son of the royal family.
According to Sham, Amani's purpose is the same as that of Yusaha, which is to summon magicians from other worlds to establish his own magic academy and prove his abilities. So what did the other nobles for?
Army? Weapons? Magic? Or miracles and spells?
Most aristocrats were greedy. They only know the endless taking, but they don't know what the reward is.
Then they must join in for the sake of some kind of person or thing that has great benefits for them. Soon, a very bad possibility appeared in Lu Ming's mind.
Is it possible that the Grand Duke of Hedist wanted to overthrow the royal family of Unos, and that the nobles of Muspelheim and Nifelheim were implicitly involved in the otherworldly summoning scheme?
After thinking about it, Lu Ming found that only this one possibility was the most likely, and the others had no direct evidence to enhance their possibility. But if that's true, then Yusaha and Amani, who want to prove themselves by relying on these five plans to build an academy of magic, are complete wretched.
"Sure enough, the game between the nobles is too dark."
Early the next morning, a centaur galloped down the main road of Muspelheim and delivered a letter to the capital of Musberheim, the city of Iazon.
As soon as Iason's guards saw it, they smuggled it out of the dark passages to the lord's palace. Here, the centaurs met the lord of Musberheim, Dahl Kakaro.
"Your Excellency. This was sent to me by Lord Viscount. After a respectful salute, the centaur handed the letter to Count Carkaro.
"Let's go down!"
"Yes, my lord." Hearing that Count Kakaro told him to step down, the centaur immediately saluted again and left the room where the Count was in backwards.
Watching the rough-faced centaur exit his room, Count Kakaro opened the letter carelessly.
"Honorable Lord, I am Ahathor Ke, the captain of the Centaur Commando. The reason why I asked my men to send you a letter is because the new lord of Odysseus we did not succeed in the hunt. At the cost of half the lives of our team members, we didn't even kill a single person. It's a shame, please give us another chance. So that we can prove that your support for us is not in vain."
"Huh! Didn't work out? After reading the contents of the letter, Count Cakaro laughed. It's as if you don't care about the Centaur's defeat at all.
After smiling and thinking quietly for a while, Count Carkaro called in a servant and told him to tell the centaurs who had delivered the letters, and he was not at all angry at their failure. With a reputation for biting stegowolves, it's only natural that they'll lose. No need to fight the wolf again.
However, does he really not care? Yes, he really didn't care if the centaur could successfully hunt Lu Ming. This is because these centaurs are nothing more than idle moves that have nothing to do with the overall situation, and they cannot affect the overall situation in any way.
And, most importantly, he didn't care if the centaurs lived or died.
While Count Cakaro was reading the letter sent by the centaurs to the city of Iason, Lu Ming was in the grove not far from the town of Calythorp, where he took Princess Ella and her daughter Kanina to practice the Flan Sword.
However, after teaching the two of them how to use it, Lu Ming began to hunt in the woods with the walking grass and the little fox road.
Whether it is a demon rabbit or a sambar deer, they are all the prey of Lu Ming and his two little pets.
"Walking grass sleep powder! Road Flame Powder! ”
With Lu Ming's order, the walking grass and the road shot out a large patch of blue and red powder.
Flame powder is Mirakaisa's primary magic, and its power is so small that it is not enough to even ignite wood. But it is still possible to slowly roast some magic rabbits that have fallen asleep by sleep powder.
After the magic power on the flame powder was exhausted, those demon rabbits wafted out bursts of fleshy aroma, making Ella and Kanina, who had not eaten breakfast, involuntarily look at this side.
It's a pity that Lu Ming only gave the two of them a rabbit leg, and the rest was either eaten by Ella's guards or fed to Lu'er.
"It's not fair!" Tormented by hunger, both Ella and Kanina screamed.
"What's wrong?" Lu Ming looked back at the two of them and asked with some confusion.
"I'm hungry!" Ella and Kanina said in unison.
Seeing this, Lu Ming smiled inexplicably, took out a magic book from his arms, pointed to a paragraph on it, and read: "'Hunger can help magicians master magic faster, because in the case of hunger, the potential of the human body can be used. That's what Archmage Lekin Hames said. ”
"I don't care! I'm a princess! You should listen to me! ”
Seeing that Ella actually took out all the princess shelves in order to eat, Lu Ming couldn't say anything more, so he had to ask Ella's guards to take the two legs of an unlucky sambar deer to Ella and Kanina.
Seeing that they completely ignored their image and held the deer's legs and bited there, Lu Ming sighed slightly, wondering if he was a little too much. However, as a teacher and father, he could never admit his mistake. Even if it's wrong, it's right!
Lu Ming could also see that Ella and Kanina didn't want to continue. So he was a little bored, so Lu Ming had to continue walking towards the depths of the woods with the walking grass and the road.
According to the residents of the town, there are very powerful demonic beasts in this forest, and Lu Ming has some insight.
It's a pity that in the end, he found out that the demonic beast that the people in the town said was very powerful, but it was just a big bear that was almost about to reach the third order.
Holding the phone, he glanced at the quest requirements for the main quest [Darling of the Earth] that appeared after completing the main quest [Lover's Expectation], which only gave twenty gold coins. Lu Ming is going to kill it!
The reason is that the mission of [Darlings of the Earth] is to kill three different darlings. They are the centaur, the demon bear, and the Girga ground sloth.
The centaur has been done, and the demon bear is in front of you. Now only Girgar is left rotting in the ground, and I don't know where the hell it is.
At the same time that Lu Ming found the big bear, the big bear also found Lu Ming. Immediately let out a loud roar and pounced!
"Walking Grass Sleep Powder!"
Those who don't use control skills are fools, so Lu Ming didn't say a word, and let the walking grass spill a large piece of blue powder, forcing the big bear back.
Although it was said that the big bear retreated in time, he was also sprinkled a little bit by the sleep powder, and he couldn't help yawning.
"Fine snow!" With the bonus of Ilussil's straight sword, Lu Ming spewed out a large amount of cold air, freezing one of the bear's feet on the ground, making it impossible for it to escape.
Next, there was a terrible beating.
Three different skills and spells, Seed Machine Gun, Flame Powder, and Poison Powder, hit the Great Bear, and in an instant, the Great Bear was beaten to death.
But the problem is that Big Bear is the darling of the earth anyway, and unlike the centaurs, who can't charge and are wasted, people still have a unique hand no matter what they say.
That's a big flying stone!
A huge rock was summoned by the dying bear, and then slapped it away and smashed it into Lu Ming.
It's just that Da Xiong's trick is of no use to Lu Ming at all. If it's to fight other people, it may be a little useful, but it's good for Lu Ming
"Waves of Evil!" A malicious fluctuation was hit by Lu Ming, and the boulder that the big bear had hit was blown into pieces in an instant.
However, a wave of evil not only blew up the big rock, but also completely blew up the hope of the big bear's survival!
"Flange Short Arrow!" A short soul arrow shot from Piheim's magic wand shattered the bear's forehead in one fell swoop, killing it completely.
At this moment, the walking grass on the side suddenly emitted a strong light, which startled Lu Ming.
"This is, evolution?" Lu Ming was very surprised to look at the walking grass that was slowly growing in the light, both happy and a little worried.
But in any case, the walking grass has evolved into a stinky flower.
When the light receded, Lu Ming found that the body of the walking grass had grown in a large circle, and a huge flower had also grown on its head.
"Do~!" The evolved stinky flower screamed, and then walked to Lu Ming's feet under the puzzled gaze of Lu Lu, who didn't understand why his companion suddenly became like this.
Hugged the stinky flower hard, lu ming touched his head and didn t know how to talk to kanina and them later. Did you tell them that one of my walking grasses accidentally fell into a pond and then bloomed?
Helpless, Lu Ming, who had no choice, could only make up nonsense. It's just that he smelled the stinky flowers, and found that the stinky flowers in his house didn't stink at all, and even had a faint sweetness, just like nectar.
"Is this a sweet smell? Did you learn new skills as soon as you evolved? As soon as he smelled those sweet smells, Lu Ming knew that Stinky Flower had learned a real skill. It's just that it doesn't know exactly how many new skills it has learned. But the magic rabbit in the woods will be a good tester.
It's also nice to let Stinky Flower play tricks on Ella and Kanina, two guys who like to be lazy!
