"What is it? You want to learn from me?"
Lu Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he looked at the alchemic chefs kneeling in front of him. They were just cooking a few dishes, yet they had caused trouble. These guys, whom he couldn't even bear to look at, insisted on becoming his master and learning cooking from him.
"Please accept us." The few of them kowtowed in unison and said respectfully to Lu Yu.
"I don't have that much time. You'd better get out of the way!”Lu Yu said lightly.
Even if Lu Yu wanted to take in disciples, it would not be these guys. Lu Yu had completely rejected them just by looking at their horrible faces. He was in a bad mood the whole day after taking one look at them. How could he keep such a person by his side!
"If you don't accept us, then we will kneel forever.”
The few of them still wanted to use the method of pestering, but Lu Yu would not fall for it.
He used a small spell without leaving a trace. The few people kneeling on the ground had no idea that their legs would not be able to move for a short period of time. They could only wait until the effect of the spell wore off.
"Let's go!"
Pulling Vi and Gaard up, Lu Yu walked past them. The weirdos wanted to stop him, but they could not move their bodies. They could only kneel on the ground and wail.
In the afternoon, they continued to search. However, not long after they sent out the message, a strange thing happened.
"Why are so many people running around like they're fleeing? Is there going to be a terrorist attack here?”
Seeing the pedestrians on the streets running around like frightened mice, Vi could easily associate it with the reaction of the citizens before the attack on Pi City.
"Can't we just capture one and ask?"
Coincidentally, a man was about to pass by them. Lu Yu casually grabbed him and pulled him back.
"You bunch of bitches, do you want to die?”
The man was fleeing and was suddenly caught. How could he not be angry? He looked at the three of them and cursed.
"Pa!"
Vi gave him a solid slap. As a warrior who used a mechanical heavy fist glove, her strength was naturally not low. This slap directly caused half of the man's face to swell up. It looked very symmetrical with the other half of his face.
"You…you…what are you doing?”
The man opened his mouth, and a tooth fell out with a bloody light. He spoke a little awkwardly. He didn't dare to scold her anymore. He didn't expect a woman to be so violent. If she did it again, he would turn into a pig's head.
"Why are you running? Why are you hiding?”
Seeing that her strength had intimidated this man, Vi threw a smug smile at Lu Yu and asked.
"The conscription team is here. We have to run now! It would be terrible if he was captured and sent to Noxus to serve as a soldier.”
The man's voice and tears made Wei Du look at him with incomparable disdain. He couldn't be bothered to dirty his hands and kicked him away.
Although he was using boxing gloves, Vi's leg strength was not small. She kicked him far away and rolled on the ground a few times. They thought that he would fall to the ground and not get up, but they did not expect that the man actually got up again. He took some staggering steps and quickly disappeared from their sight.
"How did Zuan's men end up in Noxus?”
Lu Yu could not be bothered to care whether the man escaped or died. After hearing the answer, he had a new question.
"Zuan was originally a vassal of Noxus. Noxus needed an army, and Zuan had many people. All kinds of criminals gave Zuan a headache. Letting Noxus capture some soldiers was a mutually beneficial thing.”
Having fought against these two city-states before, Gaard could be considered to have some understanding of political issues, so he answered Lu Yu's doubts.
"What a pair of scoundrels!”Lu Yu could not help but sigh.
"Should we hide for a while?" Vi asked.
"No need. I want to see who has the ability to capture us and enlist us in the army.”
Lu Yu did not think much of the army. In his opinion, a loose army that was forcibly recruited was not as practical as a mage.
Gaard seemed to want to say something, but when he saw Lu Yu's arrogant and disdainful gaze, he swallowed his words.
"Captain, there's a group of people over there!"
A group of people in black armor appeared not far from the three of them. One of the soldiers saw the three of them on the empty street and immediately reported to the captain.
"Nonsense, I saw it too."
The captain slapped the soldier's helmet and said impatiently. There were only the three of them on the entire street, and they were not far from their group. They would have to be blind to not see them.
"Go and capture them!"
As soon as the captain gave the order, four or five soldiers immediately ran towards the three of them with powerful steps.
Lu Yu looked at these people coldly. There were already traces of flames on his hands. As long as these soldiers dared to touch them, his flames would definitely explode with intense heat.
Gaard also felt the magic power emanating from Lu Yu's body. He frowned and finally said,""The strength of Noxus and Zuan cannot be underestimated. My lord, it's best if you don't make a move. Their armies are very closely connected. As long as a small team disappears, the main force will immediately sense it. When Zuan City is sealed, we won't be able to deal with so many soldiers.”
Lu Yu was a little hesitant. If he was caught by them, he would become a soldier of Noxus.
"You don't need to do anything. If you use magic, they won't be able to catch up.”Vi also advised from the side.
"Alright then!"
Wei had already spoken. Lu Yu naturally had to maintain a certain amount of respect for his woman. He nodded and the flame in his hand gradually dissipated.
Since they were not going to fight, Lu Yu and the rest naturally would not stay here and be captured to become soldiers. With the acceleration of the wind, the three of them immediately disappeared without a trace. The few soldiers could not help but stop their feet when they saw this, while the squad leader looked extremely angry. "Inform the other conscription teams that three mages are fleeing. We must capture them.”
Although he did not know how many of the three people were mages, it increased the desire of the other teams to capture them. After all, being able to recruit mages was a feat! Anyone who dared to provoke the captain of the conscription team would have to bear very serious consequences.
Lu Yu and the other two did not know that they had been targeted by the entire city's conscription team. Riding the wind, they came to another street.
"It's the conscription period now. Don't let Janna be captured by the conscription team.”
While riding the wind, Lu Yu also saw how crazy the conscription team was. They were like locusts. Once the conscription team arrived, not a single person would be left in the originally bustling streets. Other than those with physical problems, they would not even let go of women. They were simply insane. If Janna was conscripted, it would be troublesome.
"Yes!"
As his father, Gaard was naturally more nervous than Lu Yu. He nodded and immediately began to search. In any case, with their magic, the conscription team would not be able to catch them.
……
Two days later.
"There's a reaction. Master, I can sense it!”
Gad, who was already a middle-aged man, suddenly jumped up and shouted excitedly. His usual wise and calm appearance was completely gone.
After more than ten years of separation, his wife's dying wish, and now that he finally felt the magic resonance, it would be strange if he could still remain calm.
"Where? Let's go."
Lu Yu was also a little happy. He really did not want to stay in Zuan any longer. If he could find Janna and obtain the skill, he could go to Birgiwater to find Jinx.
"East!"
As soon as Gaard said that, the three of them immediately moved and headed east.
"Oh no! It was the conscription team. Janna wouldn't be conscripted by the conscription team, right?”
Following Gaard's senses, she came to Janna's location. However, all she saw was a conscription team and a sealed car made of unknown metal. Vi immediately exclaimed.
"That's right, Janna was captured.”Gaard said helplessly.
Through his senses, he could feel that the resonance came from that car. He also knew that the metal used in the car was almost immune to magic, and there were runes engraved on it that increased defense. It was impossible to snatch her back.
"I'll go take a look!"
Over the past few days, Lu Yu had learned from Gaard about the strength of Noxus and Zuan's army. Back then, Gad had only managed to destroy an expeditionary army with the help of the right time and place. If they really fought, he was no match for them.
Thinking that he would not make a move, Lu Yu walked out. When the conscription team saw a living person, they immediately surrounded Lu Yu.
"Sir, one of my sisters has been captured by you. If you let them go, I can go with you.”
When the soldiers around heard this, they were instantly amused. This was the first time someone had negotiated conditions with them, and it sounded a little unbelievable.
"Can you escape now? If you want to trade your sister out, it's better for both of you to join the army in Noxus!”The soldier laughed.
"Really?" Lu Yu smiled mockingly and suddenly rose into the air, breaking away from the encirclement of the soldiers. "Can you still catch me now?”
"You…you…you're a mage.”
The soldier was shocked and pointed at Lu Yu.
"Now, let go of my sister and I can go with you. How about it? This should be very cost-effective!"
The soldier was immediately tempted. An ordinary person was dispensable to them, but if they could get a mage, it would be a great contribution to them. After discussing with the others, they finally agreed to the exchange.
What's your sister's name?"
"Janna!"
The door of the metal car quickly opened, and the soldier brought Janna out. Lu Yu felt refreshed the moment he saw her. This was a beautiful girl. Her face was peaceful and harmonious, but her eyes were intelligent.
At the same time that Lu Yu was looking at Janna, Janna was also looking at him. She did not understand when she had a relative.
"Alright, your sister has been released. Go in quickly.”The soldier urged Lu Yu.
Lu Yu had a calm smile on his face. Just as he was about to enter the car, a voice suddenly came from behind. "Wait, there's still me!"
Gaard, who was extremely delighted by his daughter's appearance, slapped his forehead. Women like to be emotional. Can't she see that His Lord can escape! With one more, it would probably not be so easy to run.
Lu Yu's expression changed as well. He knew that Vi had caught up with him. While he felt a headache, his heart also felt warm.
In the end, Lu Yu and Vi boarded the metal car together...
