Chapter 268 Bastard

After a long time.

Barry stared at Walter's eyes and said seriously word by word: "Are you kidding?"

He knew that Walter was born in Black Refining City and should know what the Fire Cave meant to them.

For the sake of Lady Anis, it would be fine to lend them a few days, but now they want to buy it.

The Fire Cave has only been traded between several internal forces in their Black Refining City since ancient times, and has never been sold to outsiders.

"Walter, do you know what you are talking about?" His eyes were calm, but his tone was very cold.

"I'm not kidding." Walter shook his head slowly, and Barry's reaction was within his expectations.

"You should know our rules very well. The Fire Cave is never sold to outsiders, even if Lady Anis is behind you!"

"Go, please tell Lady Anis that we will not sell it no matter how much money it costs!" Barry said with a slightly cold face.

He was very polite, trying not to get angry and not to say something offensive, even if he had just been offended.

After all, Anis was a Sky Knight, and there were only two Sky Knights in the entire Wing Empire.

He stood up and prepared to turn around and leave, but just after taking two steps, a voice from behind stopped him instantly.

"Alliance leader Barry, you may have made a mistake. It's not Lady Anis who wants to buy it." Walter smiled and said lightly.

"It's Lord Zoro."

"Which Lord Zoro?" Barry turned slowly, and suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.

Seeing Barry's expression, Walter laughed.

"Who else could it be Lord Zoro? The one you are thinking of, Count Zoro of the Soros family."

Barry was stunned and fell into thought.

He naturally knew about Zoro Soros, the protagonist of the hot topic that has spread throughout the Black Refining City in the past half month.

And he not only knew it, but also carefully studied and understood the deeds of this person, and finally came to a conclusion.

This is a fierce man.

It has only been a few months since his debut, and he has killed two alien kings and a sky knight of the White Phoenix City-State Alliance.

It is said that he also fought with the Knight of the Sword of War Ivic for 300 rounds, and there was no winner, and he even did not lose.

I also heard that Zoro didn't graduate from high school, that Zoro had an affair with Lady Anis, and that Zoro had killed several nobles since he inherited the position of the head of the family.

The first two are gossips, and Barry feels that their authenticity needs to be verified.

The latter is true, and he has studied it the most.

So it can be concluded that this Count Zoro is still a ruthless, vindictive, and fierce man who regards human life as worthless.

Faced with such a person's request to buy his life, Barry felt very embarrassed. He wanted to refuse but didn't dare to refuse.

After hesitating for a long time, he looked at Walter with an uncertain face and asked, "Are you serious?"

Seeing Walter nod, he let out a long breath, as if to clear the stagnation in his chest.

"Knight Walter, I can't make a decision on this matter alone. I need to discuss it with several other ministers."

Walter smiled. He knew that Barry was scared because Barry added the word knight after his name.

He thought that Lady Anis refused when she bought it.

But when he heard that it was Lord Zoro, his attitude immediately changed 180 degrees, from arrogant to respectful.

But he understood Barry.

Because Lord Anis is lawful, in other words, reasonable, and Lord Zoro... it's hard to describe.

"Alliance Master Barry, then please discuss a result as soon as possible." Walter nodded, stood up, thought about it and reminded, "Lord Zoro's patience is not very good."

Barry pulled the corner of his mouth, forced a smile, and then personally sent Walter to the gate of the manor.

Before leaving, Walter felt the heavy weight of the purse in his pocket, so he reminded him.

"Alliance Master Barry, Lord Zoro usually takes whatever he wants directly... rarely trades."

"So this is an opportunity for you, you must grasp it well, don't make mistakes."

Barry's face turned black and purple, and the two sentences Walter said made his heart beat wildly.

He stood at the door and watched Walter's back leaving, stunned and speechless, feeling as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a piece of shit.

After standing there for a while, he waved to several guards, whispered a few words and hurried into the manor.

Not long after.

Carriages came to the manor one after another, and people dressed differently got off the carriages, men and women, old and young, and everyone looked very anxious.

…

The sun was scorching at noon, and the golden and fiery sunlight sprinkled down, and a faint transparent distortion rose in the air, which was the refraction of light caused by the rising heat flow.

On the hillside of the Bilel Fire Cave, a large open space was cleared in the middle of the dark green forest.

In the open space, several round black tents stood quietly among the trees.

Helen and Yueling, the two sisters, were fiddling with the bonfire on one side of the tent. Nicole slowly turned the metal basin on the fire, and a faint meaty aroma gradually drifted out of the basin.

"How do you think the teacher can stay up there?" Helen asked a little bored.

They had originally camped on the top of the mountain, but the temperature was too high and the air was dry and hot. After a while, they couldn't stand it anymore and moved here.

"Your bastard teacher is a monster. Not only can he stay there, he also enjoys it."

Yue Ling looked at the top of the mountain and seemed to see the intoxicated expression on Lu He's face.

After secretly cursing, Yue Ling withdrew her gaze.

Hearing Yue Ling calling her teacher a bastard, Helen's red lips moved slightly, but she didn't refute after all.

Mainly because she also thought he was a bastard.

She had been a disciple for more than half a month, and during this time, Teacher Lu He didn't teach her anything. He just gave her a thick book on basic pharmacy and asked her to read it by herself.

He also said that if she didn't understand, don't ask him first, ask Ralph, the elder in Yue Ling's tribe.

At that time, she didn't realize it, thinking that it was just the basic knowledge of pharmacy, and she shouldn't be unable to understand it.

Because although the academy only teaches knight training, there is also common sense introduction to pharmacy. She had some understanding at that time and didn't think that pharmacy was that difficult.

The result... it's better not to say it.

Thinking of this, Helen tilted her head and asked, "Sister Yue Ling, when will Elder Ralph come?"

Helen is very panicked now. It doesn't matter if she doesn't understand, but there is no one to ask for advice.

And she hasn't seen Elder Ralph either.

"It should be in the next few days." Yue Ling saw her little sister with a sad face and comforted her.

"It's okay. If you don't understand, then don't worry too much. It's not your fault. If you want to blame someone, blame your irresponsible bastard teacher."

Yue Ling subconsciously looked at the top of the mountain with her clear and bright eyes while speaking, and her voice was very low.

It was almost time for dinner, and that bastard should be going back to the camp.

When she looked up, she was so scared that her heart was beating non-stop.

Because Lu He was standing in front of her.

Yue Ling smiled awkwardly and said calmly, "Are you back? Come and have lunch. It's ready."

The weather was hot.

Yue Ling was dressed casually, wearing a white T-shirt and a slightly longer light blue hot pants that reached above the knees. Her white legs were dazzling and she was wearing quite cool clothes.

Lu He just glanced at her casually, and Yue Ling was so scared that she quickly fled the scene, leaving Helen, who was extremely embarrassed.

A rookie.

Lu He shook his head, sat in her seat, took the tableware handed over by Nicole, and prepared to eat.

The temperature was already extremely hot, and a bonfire was lit.

The maid Nicole was sweating as she served Lu He, cutting meat and adding dishes, and she was so busy that she felt dizzy.

Helen, who was beside her, did not dare to run, and helped Nicole add firewood or prepare ingredients, sweating profusely from the heat.

Because Lu He ate very quickly.

The main reason was that he had a large appetite now, and not eating quickly would waste time and not fill his stomach.

In fact, Lu He could not eat, and directly absorb the life energy of the surrounding plants to fill his body.

But he usually did not do this.

Because he did not have many hobbies, apart from cultivation, there were only food and beautiful women left, which could not be missed.

At this time, Lu He was enjoying the food while falling into a state of thinking, and his eyes flashed a little red from time to time.

After half a day of careful observation, he found that the Bilaier Fire Cave could not only be used to refine spiritual training potions, but also gave him another unexpected surprise.

That is, the fire energy crystal.

He faintly discovered a tiny fire energy crystal in the deepest part of the fire cave.

Because it was too small, or even just a prototype of crystallization, Lu He couldn't confirm whether it was true.

But it didn't matter, he was sure that there must be a prototype.

As long as there was a prototype, he could use the environment here to arrange a large formation to accelerate the formation of crystallization.

The role of fire energy crystals was crucial to him, and this discovery made him feel very good now.

Because the first-level solidification defense spell high-temperature distortion stance was advanced to the second-level spell Molten Lake Constant Stance, two conditions were required.

First, it was necessary to weave an extremely complex superposition array according to the special array of Molten Lake Constant Stance.

Then, the effect of this superposition array was used to promote the effect of the high-temperature distortion stance level advancement.

This was no problem for Lu He, it only took time, and there was no restriction on the cultivation materials.

Second, a fire energy crystal was needed as the core of this second-level spell cultivation.

This was the cultivation material.

Originally, he was quite worried and doubted whether there was a fire energy crystal in this world.

Because fire energy crystals were not a very common material, they required several special conditions for generation.

Of course, he could also choose not to practice Molten Lake Constant Stand and switch to other secondary defensive spells, but the fire element system is the type of spell he is best at.

And this spell is one of the most defensive fire element spells, and it is also an advanced spell of high temperature distortion stand.

It is the most suitable for him.

In addition, non-fire element defensive spells, regardless of whether they are good or not, also require more or less casting materials.

However, this problem is now perfectly solved.

Lu He is certain in his heart.

Below the fourth level, one of the most important abilities of a wizard is the innate spell stand.

This timely appearance of the fire energy crystal helped him solve a very critical problem.
