Lu Yu's brows frowned at once, and he said solemnly, "You said... what?"
The old man said: "You kill one of my subordinates and bring his blood to sacrifice the flag. It seems that you are ready for a desperate battle, plus the strange equipment you used. It should be a weapon. Right? Obviously a special weapon should be used as an unknown hole card, used at a critical moment, but you directly took it out like this, it seems that you are confident that it can be a threat. You did a good job, from setting this place, Show your temperament and determination, as well as your strength, everything seems so perfect, but one thing is wrong. That is, you blamed our purpose for coming this time."
"purpose?"
Lu Yu looked confused, wondering what the other party meant, wrong? Lu Yu rarely makes mistakes, unless something very special happens.
The old man said: "If you are a little concerned about our Tianshu City, you should know that Tianshu City is really busy and very busy recently, and because of your majesty's mischief with some troops, the people of Locke are in your understanding. It must be very bad, very bad, even everyone is a guy with a bad water all over!"
Lu Yu nodded without burden.
The old man smiled and said: "Yes, Tianshu City has been asking for tribute from the surrounding cities for so many years. Although this seems a bit strange, in fact, when these cities belonged to the Locke country, all the Taxes will be handed over to us, and even if your cities join the Delsa city-state, I believe that your prince has never received taxes from you, right? Haha, there is no city in this world that does not pay taxes, and we pay such taxes Calling it a tribute is actually enough to give the Prince a lot of face."
"Is that right?"
Lu Yu did not have Wanghaicheng's original person by his side, the only one who had been sent back to him, so he couldn't tell whether the other party was right or wrong.
The old man continued: "As for this time, the reason why we are so busy is because... I don't know why, that monster woke up early, two years early!"
"Monster?"
"Viper."
"Viper?!"
"Well, Viper, that only awakened once in fifty years, randomly appeared anywhere on the continent, and would destroy everything around the terrifying guy, awakened early, a full two years earlier, that is to say. , It woke up as early as half a year ago!"
"Impossible, I have never heard the news before."
Lu Yu frowned and said.
The old man said: "Yes, maybe because of the early awakening. This time, the viper did not explode crazily when it appeared in the world, causing immeasurable destruction, but after it appeared, it kept going. It sneaks underground, and it rushes out of the earth from time to time. After destroying a village, it will disappear immediately. No one even knows where it will go after sneaking in. Sometimes it is dozens of miles away, sometimes... In addition, even across the entire continent, appearing on the other side of the continent!"
Lu Yu said, "Is this... is it true? It... Why did it do this? Since no one has been able to eliminate it for so many years, then this kind of unprovoked act of avoiding something is because of what? And this What does it have to do with your Tianshu City?"
"Revolt."
The old man said calmly: "Even if... After fifty years, we are still not its opponents, but it does not affect us to resist! What we can do in Tianshu City is to continuously send the most sophisticated weapons to Locke. Each soldier is armed to the teeth, so that when they face the sudden appearance of the viper, they can have the power to fight, even if they... hurt it. The behavior of the viper has always been a mystery, and there is no one. I know why it only appears for a few months each time, and it will enter a fifty-year long sleep, obviously... its ability can be said to be ruining the world. So this time it’s strange though, But at the beginning, people would not doubt anything, until... a few months have passed, and it is clear that it should go to sleep again, but it does not, it is still like that, I don’t know when it will appear in I do not know. Somewhere, in order to avoid panic, causing greater casualties and restlessness, people we know about it try to conceal the news about it. After all, where it appears, there is the end! But if it is said, then the whole Locke, no, the entire area covered by the Delsa city-state will all face the fear of doomsday. This is unnecessary. In fact, in the past six months, there are only seven villages and towns destroyed by vipers, and none It has attacked the big city, and it is estimated that the casualties can still be controlled below 10,000."
Lu Yu said, "So it's like this... Huh? Then you came here and brought 50,000 people, saying that you want to help us migrate... What do you mean?"
The old man said: "From the time when the viper-shaped trail was abnormal, we have been estimating where it will appear next time, where its main attack target will be, and where it will be located, and the result of the inference... is this day near the hub city! In fact, when our army set off, Tianshu City had already begun to evacuate in large numbers, and in a few days, Tianshu City would become an empty city. And when we fled, we did not forget to notify you. Even help you guys."
Lu Yu said, "So, you are here to be good people? What kind of thoughts did the guy before, the guy who tried to disarm me, think?"
"He? Like most people in Tianshu City, he doesn't want to spend precious time and energy on your surrounding towns at this critical moment."
"Hehe, if your statement is a scam, it is really going to succeed."
Lu Yu smiled lightly, and there was some contempt in his words. After all, he really didn’t know about something like a viper, and he didn’t know what the other party was based on. He could calculate the place where the viper would attack next. Why don’t you set up the biggest trap there to fight the viper? Lu Yu believes that as long as the preparation is sufficient, sufficient! Even a god, a weak human being can kill it!
Suddenly, Lu Yu was taken aback, blinked in surprise, and then immediately asked, "Where was that viper, when it first appeared?!"
The old man said: "I heard that it is a barren land a thousand miles west of Gale City. When it appeared, it was earth-shattering, but it did nothing and dived into the earth."
