My Summons Are Weird

Chapter 48: Next Lineup

Black Shield City, the territory of Guy, one of the three lords of the eastern border of Yas Kingdom.

If it wasn’t for him coming in person, Lu Yu would have a hard time believing that this Black Shield City was not a simple military castle, but a large city-state no less than the city of Yas King.

The materials of the kingdom were continuously imported into Black Shield City from the rear, and then transferred to the other two cities through Black Shield City.

To manage such a huge city, a border area, and a material transfer center, this Duke Guy is definitely a diehard loyalist of Yas III.

It took five days for the nobles who participated in the competition to arrive at Black Shield City. Guy didn’t even come forward to meet anyone, but just randomly sent his subordinates to settle them in a place.

The only person Gay met was Lu Yu.

A team of cavalry escorted Lu Yu and Lulutis to a tower on the outer city wall.

Inside the tower, a burly man in black armor saw Lu Yu coming, waved his hand, and turned away the people around him, leaving only a few cronies.

The terrifying scar on Guy’s left face that had been burned by the flames made every expression on his face full of ferocity.

Guy spent more than a minute looking at Lu Yu and Sigrid while looking at the letter in his hand.

Lu Yu didn’t speak, looked at him calmly, and even looked at the scars on his face with interest.

“Are you interested in my scars?” Guy put down the letter in his hand and raised his head.

“I have heard that Duke Guy’s scar was caused by a goblin archmage. It happened that His Majesty told me before departure that there was also a goblin archmage near the area where the nobles competed.”

Guy waved his hand, screened off the rest of the guards, and closed the door of the tower.

Sigrid became vigilant and slowly retreated to a position against the wall.

“Marquis of Seris, if you don’t mind, I’ll call you by your first name.”

“Please.”

Guy sat down, touched the scar on his face lightly, and said, “His Majesty said bluntly in the letter, if you are willing to find the Goblin Archmage, let the Knights of the Black Shield cooperate with your actions.”

“If you don’t want to do anything, I have sent someone to prepare a safe place in Black Shield City, and what happened the night before departure will definitely not happen again.”

Lu Yu said with a smile: “It seems that the news is spreading very quickly. The city of Yas is full of storms now?”

“No, His Majesty did not intend to pursue it, and asked me to apologize to you in the letter.”

“It doesn’t matter, I also know that this is the result in the end.”

On the eve of his departure to and from the East, Lu Yu was attacked.

In the middle of the night, four assassins sneaked into Lu Yu’s mansion.

Holding a compass that could scan out magic traps, they dispelled several magic circles arranged by Lulutis along the way, and entered the house through the backyard window.

With the help of the compass, everything went smoothly. As long as they touched the bedroom on the second floor, they could kill Lu Yu and Sigrid in their sleep.

If they don’t step on the trap used to hunt giant bears.

After the assassins learned that the target of the assassination was a magician, they all focused on various small magic traps.

The traps that Lulutis arranged were on both sides of the wall, basically level with the sight of a normal adult, so they were very easy to detect.

The assassins, who were all focused on these traps, would never have imagined that on the dimly lit ground lay the traps that were set to trigger only when the magic traps disappeared.

The trap that Sigrid brought back was specially made by the Adventurer’s Guild to hunt down large monsters and beasts, and the instant lethality it caused was enough to crush the hard boulders.

No matter how dedicated an assassin is, even if his legs are pinched by a beast, he will cry out.

The awakened Lulutis held the magic core and opened all the traps on the second floor.

The assassin rushed to the second floor and planned to kill Lu Yu, but he was faced with a magical flow of light like light pollution.

The hapless man whose leg was pinched became the only survivor, and was escorted away by Duke Buckman who came after dawn.

The attack made Yas III furious, and even went deep into the dungeon to interrogate the assassin himself.

However, the only unfortunate person who survived was taking money through an intermediary to do things, and he didn’t even know who the employer was.

So, when Lu Yu left the royal city, he witnessed a burn at the stake, which was the anger of Yas III.

“No, I’m going to try it out. I’m very interested in the corrosive liquid of the giant salamander.”

Seeing that Lu Yu’s attitude was firm, Guy told Lu Yu some information about the Goblin underground palace outside the Black Shield City and the Luotan Plain in advance, and sent Lu Yu a map marked with the active area of the goblin.

Before leaving, Guy reminded: “Although I heard that you have traveled a lot and have rich experience, I still want to warn you… With your injured body, you can’t deal with the goblin archmage. It is very strong.”

Lu Yu naturally knew that he didn’t want to fight with a monster that might already be at the gold level. In order to prevent accidental collision with each other, Lu Yu also asked Lulutis to prepare a potion to enhance the speed and run first-class.

Back at the residence, Lu Yu brought a cart full of medicines into the house and stayed behind closed doors.

Two days later, the Goblin Hunting Tournament officially started, and the noble children led their teams out of the city one after another.

Before leaving the city, they searched for a long time in the crowd, but could not find any trace of Lu Yu.

Maroney gritted his teeth in hatred.

Lu Yu was so excited that they had to come to the front line of the Eastern Realm, but this guy shrank back in this competition?

He is such a perfect ten!

But Lu Yu can shrink, but they can’t.

The adventurers and knights of Black Shield City are watching their every move. If you just sit and wait for the people below to harvest the heads, and you sit back and enjoy the success, you will still be despised when it is passed on to the royal city.

What’s more, at this point, it’s no longer a competition with Lu Yu.

With so many clans being forced to participate, beheading goblins has become a competition for clan heritage.

No one wants to lose, everyone wants to be first.

Rewards are second, the nobles’ face is the most important.

A day later, some nobles who set out returned covered in blood, with the heads of several goblins hanging on their horses.

Although the guards who went with him were not damaged, there were also several people with scars and fell off their horses as soon as they arrived in the city.

Several of them had arrow wounds on their backs, and some even had their armor shattered by magic, and their blood was blurred.

A team of more than 20 people had captured only 17 goblins in total.

Several groups of nobles returned one after another. The most brought back twenty-nine goblin heads, and the few were only three.

The important thing is that these nobles who have returned later, Maroney who has won more heads, have already started to reduce the number of members in the team.

No family is underprepared. Each of these nobles started with four or five vehicles.

People like Lu Yu who only transported a truckload of medicines are of an outlier.

Sigrid, who made the last purchase before departure, told Lu Yu the news. Lu Yu just thought about it for a while, and then showed a clear look.

“It turns out that the biggest trap of the competition rules formulated by Yas III is buried here.”

“Trap?” Sigrid asked curiously, “Master, do you mean the head of the goblin?”

“Yes, to prove that you have indeed hunted goblins, you must submit the corresponding number of goblin heads. Then the question is, how do you get this head?”

Sigrid didn’t understand Lu Yu’s question, and replied stupidly, “Isn’t it obtained by killing the goblins?”

“I mean, how should they beheaded?” Lu Yu continued to explain, “According to the information given to us by Duke Guy, although most of the underground palaces have wide entrances, as they go deeper, the passages will become narrow. The choice of weapons is limited, and the overall formation will be forced to break up into squads.”

“This also leads to the fact that in the narrow area, the only person who actually meets the enemy is the warrior standing at the front. The amount of damage he can cause to the goblins means the amount of gains he can get.”

Sigrid recalled it carefully. The most seriously injured of the noble team who just returned were the shield guards and warriors who were carrying shields.

“In a narrow space, if you want to help the soldier at the front make up his knife and cover his advance, the long-range output at the rear must maintain high precision. Whether it is an archer or a mage, it is necessary to consider the problem of accidental injury when attacking.”

“You just saw that many soldiers were injured behind them, most likely they were teammates…”

Lu Yu glanced at the powder under the pestle, it wasn’t fine enough and needed to be pounded.

“Following the scene just now, let’s continue to think about it~www.readwn.com~ In the underground palace with not enough light, after a fierce battle and barely defeating the goblins, it is time to cut off the head of the goblins. .”

“Goblins are very familiar with the underground palace they built. If you temporarily repelled the other party, the other party will quickly gather reinforcements to return. And you, when cleaning the battlefield, beheaded a large number of goblins. One or two of these heads are nothing, but more than one. It becomes quite heavy, and if you take into account the armor that everyone has to wear for safety, everyone is equivalent to a weight-bearing race in the enemy’s old home.”

“And don’t forget, Black Shield City is far from where the Goblin Dungeon is located. If the Goblins counterattack, the cavalry outside Black Shield City will not be able to rescue them immediately.”

Handing the pounded herbs to Lulutis, Lu Yu took a sip of water and sat aside, admiring Lulutis’ tentacles for multi-threading operations.

Lulutis couldn’t help but want to tease: “According to what you said, there are only three of us. Isn’t going to the underground palace looking for death?”

“Who said that? I think our configuration is quite reasonable. Sigrid slashes in the front row, I put a magic shield on her in the back, and make up for the lethal damage by the way, and you can wrap the two of us with tentacles and control them at any time. Our position, the extra tentacles can take the opportunity to poison.”

There are fighters and tanks, there are wizards who are part-time summoners, and there are assistants who are part-time poisoners. No matter how you look at this lineup, this lineup is enough.

“Okay, but those nobles who hate you for setting things up to harm others may not want to do something to you. They have to deal with goblins and nobles. We are in a lot of trouble.”

“Also, we can’t remove a large number of goblins’ heads. How do you plan to solve this?”

Lu Yu said calmly, “I’ve already figured out a way to do this, just wait and see.”
