Chapter 600 The Destruction Plan
Xu Mo looked at Lu Yu. Although he looked calm on the surface, he was deeply shocked inside.
What surprised him the most was that Lu Yu knew not only about his talent but also the intricacies of it.
He even knew about his crystal of immortality!
Xu Mo swallowed dryly. “It’s good that you know. It’ll be easier for us to cooperate if we know each other’s skills.”
There was a reason for Xu Mo’s words. In the past, he never exposed his talent to others. He didn’t even tell his teammates. Therefore, when he was in danger during one of his missions, his teammates risked their lives to come back and save him, which led to a tragedy.
“Let’s go. The earlier we go, the earlier we can figure out the enemy’s movements.”
After Lu Yu finished speaking, the two got on their warhorses and began to travel through the forest.
The forest was dense, and their traveling speed was slow, even when riding a warhorse; they were going forward at a slower rate than Lu Yu’s walking speed.
The advantage was that he could conserve his physical stamina, making it easier to deal with unexpected situations.
As he advanced, Lu Yu took out the map and looked at it carefully.
“If we go any further, we will leave this forest and enter a wide open plain.”
Lu Yu stated.
Xu Mo asked, “Can you determine our current location on the map? There are dense trees all around, and I don’t know how far we’ve walked.”
Lu Yu smiled. “Of course, I can do so accurately. I have external help.”
Xu Mo looked around curiously. “Outside help? What does that mean? Where are they?”
Lu Yu took out his walkie-talkie and pointed. “It’s here,”
“We’ve already gone far. Unless other strongholds are nearby, your walkie-talkie will not be of use.”
Lu Yu shook his head and smiled. “My helper is Qin Yang from the Star Science Chamber of Commerce. He possessed technology capable of greatly enhancing the communication signal, allowing him to contact me easily.”
Xu Mo nodded immediately. “So it’s someone from the Star Science Chamber of Commerce. I understand. With their help, we’ll have an easier time in this primitive world.”
“You seem to know much about the Star Science Chamber of Commerce.”
“Kinda. I’ve done a few missions in their territory…”
Very quickly, the surrounding air got cold. Lu Yu could clearly feel the drop in the surrounding temperature.
The leaves of the trees around him were yellow in color, and the ground was covered with a thick layer of fallen leaves. When the warhorse walked through, the fallen leaves were so thick that they could even bury its legs.
“The climate change in this world is ridiculous. It was a tropical jungle just moments before, and now it’s almost a world of ice and snow.”
Xu Mo shrugged. “That’s normal. After all, it’s a secret realm. There’s bound to be something unusual.”
Fewer and fewer trees remained in the surrounding area. There were only a few scattered trees around, with bare trunks and no leaves hanging on them.
As they walked further, it began to snow around them. The snowflakes slowly drifted down and fell on them.
“There’s an open plain in front. Unfortunately, it’s a freezing cold tundra plain.”
“It seems like those guys deliberately chose to hide here. They are sure cautious.” Lu Yu commented.
Only a few living beings could survive in this place, most of whom were ferocious beasts.
Most humans who entered these ancient ruins to cultivate would shrink back when they saw the vast expanse of white snow before them.
“They chose this place on purpose. This way, they can work in this world secretly.”
“Let’s continue our journey. Let’s see where they are hiding.”
Xu Mo jolted the reins and added, “By the way, if we find the enemy’s headquarters later, please remember that I will take charge as the vanguard. You just have to keep guard nearby, or else if anything happens, the military will lose a captain.”
The two continued to move forward. At that moment, Lu Yu’s walkie-talkie made a sound.
“Lu Yu, there’s a small stronghold in front of you. Quickly take care of it!”
After hearing Qin Yang’s voice, Lu Yu hurriedly asked, “You can scan the terrain here?”
“Of course, I’ve already scanned the Truth Department’s headquarters location!”
“Is that so? What’re their headquarters like?”
“Their headquarters is literally a city!”
“A city?”
Lu Yu was puzzled for a moment, then asked, “What kind of city is it? Since they are from a civilization that existed thousands of years ago, their city must look ancient.”
“No, their city isn’t ancient-looking. There are a few skyscrapers in the center of the city, with modern-looking surrounding buildings. They are all products of our era!”
“That’s strange. Did the Truth Department move an entire city over?”
“It’s not impossible. After all, we came to the ancient ruins and built a stronghold with the help of a few scrolls.”
“I see…”
Lu Yu looked at Xu Mo and said, “Those guys moved an entire city here.”
Xu Mo thought for a moment and asked, “Could it be that they need a city because they are large in numbers?”
Lu Yu thought for a moment, then shook his head in denial. “No, that shouldn’t be the case. Since they chose such a location, it must be for concealment purposes. But why would they need an entire city if concealment is their priority?”
“Do you still remember what I told you about the Ember Empire?”
Xu Mo nodded.
“This empire has been asleep for thousands of years. They don’t know anything about our world but want to conquer it.”
“Their first step must be to understand us. This city will likely be a model for those who have awakened to understand us.”
Hearing this, Xu Mo’s eyes widened. “You’re right. That’s possible!”
“If we can destroy that city, it will definitely be of great help!”
Lu Yu nodded slightly. “That’s right. However, I’m afraid destroying that city won’t be easy.”
“Our abilities do not include one that has the effect of large-scale destruction. Or, at least, I don’t have it.”
Lu Yu thought for a moment and said, “I can only destroy a few buildings at most…”
“It seems like it’s not practical to destroy this city.”
Lu Yu lowered his head and picked up the walkie-talkie again. “Qin Yang, do you have any more explosives?”
“I don’t have more explosives, but I have something similar. Although it can’t compare to my arm, its destructive power is still strong!”
“Do you need it?”
“I’m just asking. Whether it’s necessary or not depends on the situation.”
Lu Yu hung up the walkie-talkie. “If there’s hope and if it’s possible, we’ll think of a way to destroy that city!”
Xu Mo nodded excitedly. “No problem. As long as we can bomb the whole place, the rest is easy to deal with!”
