After entering the Lantern City, the first thing Zhou Shu did was to retrieve the summons. The number of strong people in this city is far less than that of the Defeated Soldier City, and the Defeated Soldier City has summoned nearly a hundred people with more than 30,000 points, and only twenty people have been retrieved in this Lantern City. Given that he didn't complete the city, it was estimated that even if he walked through the city, the powerhouses with more than 30,000 summon points that could be found were probably about thirty people.

Fortunately, there was an old man of 60,000 points, who looked exactly like the lantern duke painted by the sick princess.

After confirming again, Zhou Shu replied to the sick princess clearly: "The duke has found it, should we find a secluded place to summon him now, or wait until we return to the defeated city?"

Although the sick princess couldn't figure out how he found it, it didn't prevent her from being overjoyed, "What about the eldest son of the lantern family?

Zhou Shu shook his head, "I didn't find it." Even if I find it, I can't summon it, and the old duke will use up most of my magic. ”

The sick princess looked around, then pointed her finger at a distant inn and said, "Go there and talk about it." The situation is urgent, and we must try to teach him to become a true duke as soon as possible. ”

Regarding the separation of the Lantern region from the White Moon Kingdom, according to the report of the sick princess's spies, it was led by the Duke and his eldest son. In other words, as long as the Duke abandons this plan, the White Moon Kingdom will be able to survive this crisis. Replace the real one with a fake duke, and the real one will surely evaporate from this world. With the strength and loyalty of the First and Second Knights, it would not be difficult to assassinate an old and frail star cultivator, so the only difficulty in this plan was to train the fake duke to be the same as the real one.

The two asked for the innermost room on the top three floors of the inn and warned the innkeeper not to disturb him. A man and a woman came to the hotel and made this kind of request, and the owner smiled when he heard it.

When the Duke of Lantern appeared in the room with his flabby, age-spotted nude, the sick princess felt that she had never been so excited in her life.

Master Zhou hurriedly found a set of clothes for him to wear, if he conjured up a Miss Miaoling this time, his action would be ten seconds slower.

The Duke of Lantern looked much more haggard than in the painting, after all, he was already a sixty-year-old man. According to the medical level of this world and the understanding of natural science, the average life expectancy of ordinary people is only in their thirties, martial arts cultivators are only about sixty-five years old, and a two-star powerhouse like the Duke of Lantern can probably only live to be in his seventies. In fact, the earl was already diabetic, but he still consumed a lot of sugar every day, and his body was already overwhelmed.

"Won't die before me?" said the sick princess.

It was the first time that Master Zhou knew that this princess still had such a tasteless sense of humor.

The Duke of the Lantern, the summoner, felt thirsty as soon as he was summoned, and wanted to go to the toilet. He had the knowledge of Zhou Shu and quickly self-diagnosed. He felt that he not only had diabetes, but also high blood pressure, and it was likely that his blood lipids were not normal. "Master, I think as long as I control my diet and exercise more, I should be fine if I live for a few more years. ”

The sick princess nodded, "I'm jealous of you. ”

Zhou Shu demobilized. "Princess, let's not do this. ”

The Duke of Lantern stretched his old arms and legs, and then swung his fists and kicks in place. His punches were fast and powerful, but he was not solid in the lower set, and his knees trembled slightly with the punches. "I'm afraid I won't be able to be a fighting force, my master. ”

The sick princess didn't expect that the person who was summoned was really exactly the same as the martial arts cultivation, and he had seen the Duke of Lantern more than once, at the celebration held in White Moon City. Although it was a few years ago, the old duke was already like this at that time. This duke has never had the opportunity to compete with people or exercise since he cultivated martial arts and inherited the earl title for decades, sitting on a wide chair all day to deal with government affairs, and then he has a luxurious and lascivious life, and his lower limb kung fu has long been degraded.

"It doesn't matter, you just have to act like a duke. I happen to know a few spies who have retired from the Duke's Mansion of the Lantern and who can teach you. ”

Master Zhou was so happy to see the princess, and he felt better. This is a whole two months of absorbing magic, and if you say no, it will be gone, and the upgrade of the Book of Summons will be delayed again. On his cautious side, he felt that this might be the most rewarding time since he came into this world, and after seeing the smile of the sick princess on his man's side, he forced himself to accept a saying that did not make much sense—that a loss is a blessing.

So far, the matter of the Duke of Lantern has been successfully resolved. Next, he only waited for the sick princess to call the spy who had been arranged to serve the duke, and then taught the old man the duke's behavior and some knowledge of interpersonal relationships in the aristocratic circle. Of course, this should be done in the safer cities of the Defeated Army. The two of them opened a new room for the old man, and prepared a large hat for him that covered half of his head to prevent him from being recognized. They will do their best to leave the lantern and go back to the city of the defeated army.

Zhou Shu is lying on the bed at the moment, bathed in what may be the last soft and warm noon sun of the year. The temperature here is getting colder and colder, and I am afraid that it will snow before November. He wasn't just lying there, his mouth was eating the grapes of this world that the sick princess had peeled for him, although he could only eat ten in all. As a thank you for this help, Zhou Shu made this request, and the princess bargained and only agreed to peel ten for him.

Phew, what about cattle and horses, what about your royal credit?

In addition to eating grapes, he also searched his head for summons, looking for traces of the Green Leaf Regiment Kuaishou and his family.

Lantern City has a million inhabitants, and Zhou Shu isn't sure that ordinary people like Kuaishou and his family who don't have magical powers happen to have anything special about being included in the Book of Summoning, but it's at least worth a try.

"No result. Master Zhou took the last grape from the finger of the sick princess with his mouth, shook his head and sighed.

The sick princess was curious, "What kind of magic are you?"

"Well, you won't understand. It seems that you want to seek revenge on the Green Leaf Group, and I can't help it. ”

"Can't you say I understand?"

Master Zhou remembered for no reason what the library sister had mentioned, and the library could not borrow books for the time being.

Why did I think of this, did I subconsciously want to lend her the Book of Summoning? Did she hypnotize me? She bought the grapes I ate, so she couldn't have drugged them?

The sick princess pretended to be angry and snorted, "You are too cautious. "My adoptive parents didn't have any secrets before.

"That's pretty good, isn't it?" Zhou Shu remembered the headshot of the golden armor man before, "If I were the kind of person who was so arrogant, I'm afraid I'd be dead by now." ”

"Then you just keep it that way. "You'll probably never be a knight. "By the way, introduce Arni to me when you return to the Defeated City, the two of us are too inefficient to exterminate this group of thieves, and he may be able to draw some people from the Wings of Light to help. ”

"You princess don't have any rights at all, it's really boring. Zhou Shu suddenly remembered that he seemed to have promised Midali to help her introduce business, so he said to the sick princess: "Otherwise, I will introduce Midali to you, it is the eldest lady who killed the eagle man, a red guy, and she is very enthusiastic." ”

Ever since the sick princess knew that Zhou Shu's magical talent was level ten, she didn't like to hear other women's names from his mouth very much.

"Forget it, I don't have the money to hire the Eagle Man, it's a big project to suppress bandits. ”

Zhou Shu reminded: "If you don't suppress the bandits, the price is very high. ”

Just when the two of them were raising the bar to each other, Master Zhou saw a very familiar person on the search page of the Book of Summoning, which he had just retrieved. "Seventy thousand summon points......" he muttered as he touched his chin.

The sick princess was in a fog, "What summoning point?"

"Come, get up, that green leaf group is nearby. "Lord Zhou found the man in Sir Rod's portrait, he is not an ordinary person as Sir Rhodes said, but a master who has at least two martial arts to reach the strength of the star.

It seems that this man has been hiding his strength all along.

At this time, the sick princess was lying on the single bed in the small hotel with Master Zhou in his clothes, and her head was next to his shoulder.

"But you told me to lie down with you for thirty minutes, and peel ten grapes for you to eat. "It's only been a few minutes. Zhou Shu conjured up a duke for the sick princess, which made her feel that she owed a lot of favors, so she asked Zhou Shu if she had any requirements, and she could meet them. It can be said that the sick princess has already revealed her thoughts very openly, and he feels that if this guy in front of him is a man, he should accept him.

But he asked himself to lie down on the bed with him, peel a few grapes and serve him to eat. In fact, the sick princess was still a little happy when she heard this request, at least this is a male-oriented request, which proves that Zhou Shu is somewhat interesting to herself, but she lacks a logical opportunity. Out of the princess's pride she bargained, only on the issue of grapes. "Make up for the rest of the night, it's important to catch people. Master Zhou was in high spirits, "It's rare to come to Lantern City, it's better to get things done and go again!"

The sick princess closed her eyelashes and smiled slightly. Well, make it up in the evening.
