Chapter 33: Serious Cheating Always Pays Off
Lulutis said that many nobles living in the capital of the kingdom are not very talkative.
The specific performance is that everyone likes to hide their true purpose in some fragmented topics, and then gradually piece together the information they need through the answers of the other party.
In this environment, everyone’s courtesy and politeness are very hypocritical.
Old Drake didn’t want to talk about tea at all. He cared more about Lu Yu or the stories he told.
Knowing this, Lu Yu didn’t plan to talk about the topic of tea. Although he could name a lot of famous teas, none of these could win the trust of old Drake, and he might keep asking questions about the details.
Under the premise of his doubts, if he can’t answer any link, he won’t think that you don’t know enough about this aspect, but will have the idea that the story of the liar can’t be made up.
“Senior Drake should not just ask me for tea, it’s as simple as chatting.”
“Forget those tedious temptations, boring routines and calculations, if you have something to say, just say it.”
Old Drake didn’t expect Lu Yu to be so direct, but he wasn’t too surprised after reading countless people.
With a polite and decent smile on his face, old Drake said the theme of today’s arrival.
“To verify the identity of foreign nobles and recognize that they have some rights equivalent to their own nobles in the Kingdom of Yas, the nobles need to temporarily form a deliberation tribunal, and a duke will appear to witness. The process is cumbersome and not very friendly to you.”
Lu Yu said, “Please focus on the key points.”
“I can help you omit this tedious process.”
Lu Yu smiled. He picked up the teacup and took another sip of the tea brought by old Drake.
This tea is now a bit of a taste.
“You are the Tribunal?”
“No, I can only vouch for you in the way recommended by a palace magician, provided you are a magician, or a powerful adventurer with exquisite martial arts.”
“With me coming forward, the Tribunal will only be a formality, and your noble status will be recognized by everyone in the Yas Kingdom territory more quickly.”
“Sounds very convenient…” Lu Yu put down the teacup and leaned his chair to the side of old Drake, “Then what do you need to pay?”
“This thank you gift shouldn’t be cheap, right?”
Old Drake glanced at Andrew next to him, Andrew immediately understood, got up and walked out of the living room.
Sigrid also left the stage under Lu Yu’s eyes.
Only Lulutis, who was quietly lurking, remained not far from Lu Yu, guarding against old Drake’s unusual behavior.
When there were no more outsiders in the room, old Drake continued: “After verifying your identity, I hope I can take a look at the three maps that the Marquis showed Andrew.”
Old Drake continued: “Of course, I won’t take it for nothing.”
Having said that, Lu Yu had a recollection of it.
After hearing Andrew’s description, Old Drake had already believed in Lu Yu’s marquis status and travel experience.
At the same time, there will be more people who know about Lu Yu, a “noble”, sooner or later, and the deliberation tribunal formed by the Yas Kingdom will definitely come to contact Lu Yu.
With Lu Yu’s previous speech and behavior, plus his unheard of experiences, the nobles in the Tribunal will most likely recognize his identity.
Old Drake came late at night because he hoped that he could bypass the tribunal in the form of a magician’s recommendation and get some knowledge and experience from Lu Yu.
Now that you have begun to believe in your own identity and experience, it will be much easier.
Lu Yu asked, “How do you want to verify my identity?”
Old Drake said with a smile, “It’s no different from Andrew. Ask some questions. Since I’m recommending as a magician, I need you to show your magic a little bit.”
Lu Yu thought for a moment and nodded.
“I have the right to choose not to answer questions concerning privacy.”
“Yes, but you must answer quickly.”
Old Drake threw the first question without warning.
“What is the famous holiday in Seris country?”
“Spring Festival.” Lu Yu didn’t expect this to begin, so he said it subconsciously.
“Then what will you do during the Spring Festival?”
“When the family is reunited, of course, enjoy the New Year’s Eve dinner, and do a big cleaning of the house along the way.”
Lu Yu wanted to talk about setting off fireworks, but in recent years he didn’t have the opportunity to do it himself, so he didn’t say it.
“New Year’s Eve dinner…that’s what we eat on festivals, right, so what do you eat?”
“It’s basically food that you haven’t heard of. In my hometown, the more common ones are pork with plums, dumplings, white-cut chicken, and a fish, which means more than enough every year.”
Old Drake asked the question faster and faster, leaving no gap for Lu Yu to stop.
From the festivals of Seris to the food of Seris, one question after another.
With such a high-intensity conversation, even a liar who made up a country by himself and recited it over and over again would be hard-pressed to answer the question as soon as he heard it.
Since he lives on that land and is the lord of the land, everything should be engraved in the depths of his memory, and he can answer it subconsciously.
The speed of old Drake’s questions was getting slower and slower, and he found that he really couldn’t keep up with Lu Yu’s answering speed.
He only said half of his question, and Lu Yu answered directly.
For example, old Drake wanted to ask again if there was any good tea in Sirius.
Lu Yu threw out a lot of tea names, such as Biluochun, Dahongpao, and Longjing, and every time he revealed one, an inexplicable smile filled his face.
Old Drake understood that smile.
Is a sense of superiority.
This is exactly the same as the embarrassment Lu Yu showed when he tasted tea before.
For another example, old Drake asked the kingdom of Sirius and the kingdom of Yas, which has a larger territory.
Lu Yu made a sound of joy, and then waved his hand to signal to old Drake to ask the next one. He didn’t want to answer this question.
Looking at Lu Yu’s expression, old Drake knew that it wasn’t that he couldn’t answer, but that he thought this question was really funny.
After a series of questions, old Drake gradually outlined some outlines of the Seris Kingdom.
It is rich, the land is vast and the resources are abundant, and it is extremely magnificent.
As for Lu Yu in front of him, he also began to believe that he really came from the rich country of Seris, and that he was an important role in the country’s frontier development.
If it weren’t for the accident caused by his fierce battle with the monsters, the Marquis should have organized a large army to conquer the land occupied by the monsters at this moment.
The living room was silent for a while, and Old Drake’s tense face gradually loosened when he was concentrating.
“Your Majesty, can you still find the way back to Seris?”
Lu Yu shook his head: “After I encountered the wrong transmission in the teleportation ceremony, I searched for many years, but I still couldn’t find any information about my homeland.”
“But this does not prevent me from continuing to search until I return to my castle again and respond to those subjects who are loyal to my territory.”
Old Drake was silent again, and he slowly closed his eyes, as if recalling something.
“It’s difficult, this land is so vast… If I guess correctly, after the teleportation ceremony, you injured yourself so badly that your body can hold very little magic power…”
Just now Lulutis had told Lu Yu in the chat room that old Drake secretly sensed the strength of Lu Yu’s magic power, and the speed was too fast to warn him.
Lu Yu was also ready to tell another lie, but he didn’t expect that old Drake would actually help him figure out a reason…
The old man is really kind!
“You are spying on me.”
“I have no ill intentions, and I will not spread this information at will.” Old Drake said regretfully, “With such an injury, you can still go all the way and overcome countless difficulties and obstacles to reach the Kingdom of Yas…”
“I only have respect for you, deep respect.”
Lu Yu walked down the slope, showing a sad look.
“It’s not all my credit. My loyal servants escorted me until all of them died, and then I came to this place of short-term peace in exchange.”
“The same is true. I bought a new servant after I arrived in the Kingdom of Yas.”
Old Drake understood it. No wonder Sigrid looked clumsy. It turned out that she only bought it from the slave market.
After getting the information he needed, old Drake stood up and said, “Since the old wound has not healed, Your Majesty, I will not make it difficult for you to use magic to verify your identity.”
Old Drake made it easy for him, and Lu Yu naturally asked Sigrid to take out three maps for Old Drake to appreciate.
Old Drake, who got the map, put on a monocle~www.readwn.com~ with a thick pleated hand and gently pinched the corner of the map, carefully enjoying the “exotic scenery”.
Fascinated by the map and the details of the monsters on the map, old Drake also asked about Lu Yu.
For example, how he learned about the weird “Human Pus” weak fire in Lothric.
In this chaotic place where even the knights of the kingdom are almost irrational, why didn’t the surviving prince take the initiative to stand up and lead the rest of the country to save the country from collapse, but instead locked himself in the room and was unwilling to go out?
Is the crown of the king a curse?
And why, on the map of Lalaiye, Lu Yu did not record any information about monsters, only wrote an unknown, and added a sentence “you should not seek too much the truth”.
He had already identified Lu Yu as the Marquis of Seris, and took his servants to start a long journey in the teleportation ceremony.
The difficulties and obstacles they faced in this journey are inexhaustible, certainly not only three maps can record them completely.
However, the maps of Lothric and Gran Sefa that I have seen are very detailed, and only Lalaye’s map is full of words.
As if… he saw something like a nightmare there.
Seeing the horror of that monster, he was completely unable to generate the desire to fight against it, and he didn’t even want to write it down in shame.
Old Drake looked up at Lu Yu.
Lu Yu asked old Drake not to ask, because he didn’t want to recall what happened at that time.
She started to tremble as she spoke, and suddenly she seemed to recall something, and tears flickered in the corners of her eyes.
What could make a war veteran so fearful?
Could it be that it is a demon **** that spreads among monsters and only exists in totem records?
