Chapter 474 A Deal With The Truth Department
After seeing the guard return to life in the stronghold, they were scared out of their wits and wanted to escape.
However, just as they were about to scatter and escape, they were shocked to find figures standing all around the stronghold. Those figures were also burning with flames!
“When did we get surrounded?”
“Where did these people come from?”
“What’s going on? What’s going on?”
“I don’t understand, but it seems like we cannot escape now. We can only kill our way out!”
“Don’t worry, let me contact headquarters first.”
One of them took out a walkie-talkie, and just as he put it to his ear, the walkie-talkie in his hand slipped out of his palm.
“What’s up with this thing?”
He was stunned for a moment and realized that the walkie-talkie in his hand was gone. He looked up and was surprised to see the walkie-talkie floating in the air.
Before his eyes, the walkie-talkie was crushed into a pile of scrap metal.
“This… this seems to be telekinesis?”
“There are more enemies around us! We’ve been surrounded!”
One shouted loudly, and the entire stronghold was in chaos!
At that moment, all the undead warriors rushed in and pounced on them.
The people surrounded by the undead warriors turned their fear into strength and fought with all their might against their enemies.
They quickly gained the upper hand and defended against the undead warriors’ attacks.
However, Yun Zirou, Han Xuefei, and others joined the battle.
Lu Yu stood in the distance, looking at the fire and chaos in the stronghold.
He didn’t intend to interfere, leaving it to Yun Zirou and the others.
He wanted to train his teammates. They couldn’t always rely on him to take the lead.
These battles were all valuable experiences.
The fierce fighting in the camp went on for some time. Finally, the ground was covered with corpses.
The battle ended with Yun Zirou and the other four standing in the center of the stronghold, looking around to see if they had missed any enemies.
At that moment, Lu Yu walked over.
“You guys did a great job killing all the enemies.”
There were nearly twenty corpses on the ground. Lu Yu extended his right hand and spat out his Undead Fire, burning the bodies.
The corpses soon rose from the ashes and joined the rest.
Lu Yu lost about seven or eight undead warriors in this battle, but they were quickly replaced. He now had more than 30 undead warriors on his team.
More than 30 undead warriors made quite a sizable team.
Having sufficient manpower was always a good thing.
Once they attacked headquarters, it was a given that a lot of people would be gathered there. At that time, he could leave it to the undead warriors to deal with.
Lu Yu also discovered that his flames weren’t the cause of some undead warriors’ transformation. Instead, they were converted by the flames of other undead warriors as they rushed into battle, and Lu Yu was also able to control them.
“Before we head to the next base, let’s do a quick search here and see if there’s any useful equipment or other things.”
“Alright!”
The few of them split up and carefully searched the wooden houses.
Very quickly, someone shouted, “Brother, quickly come here and take a look!”
Lu Yu heard Wang Meng shout, so he walked toward the house Wang Meng was in.
“Boss, look, there’s an iron door here!”
Lu Yu hurried over and saw Wang Meng lifting the carpet. He saw an iron door on the ground.
It was evident that this door led to a staircase to the basement.
“Open it and take a look.” As Lu Yu spoke, Wang Meng pulled the handle and opened the iron door.
The iron door opened, revealing a staircase that led underground.
“Let’s go down and take a look.”
Lu Yu walked down. At the same time, his left hand turned into his Light Dragon Claw, illuminating his surroundings.
Wang Meng followed behind Lu Yu and went down together.
After going down, a red iron door was in front of him. Lu Yu stood in front of the door, ready to open it.
“Brother, this room is the team leader’s room. There must be some secret inside.” Wang Meng nervously commented.
He had no idea what would be in such a deeply hidden basement.
Lu Yu didn’t say anything and opened the red door.
As he slowly opened the door, Lu Yu could clearly see it was a small, dark, damp room. There was only an oil lamp hanging on the wall.
Lu Yu quickly walked in and was hit by a pungent smell.
“Sheesh, the smell here!”
Lu Yu walked forward quickly and saw an iron cage in front of him.
Inside the cage was a girl wearing armor!
“What’s going on? There’s someone here!” Wang Meng quickly pulled out his sword and looked nervously at the iron cage in front of him.
The girl in the cage was curled up in the corner, looking at Lu Yu with fear.
“Don’t be afraid. I’m not with those staying in this stronghold. Were you caught?” he asked.
Lu Yu carefully observed the style of her armor; it was a type of steel armor that covered her entire body.
Most importantly, she was beautiful. She had big eyes, a tall nose, and pale white skin. There was a high chance that she was from the Lionheart Empire!
“Are… are you here to save me? Did her highness send you?”
She looked at Lu Yu with hope in her eyes.
Lu Yu frowned slightly and immediately understood what was going on.
“So, they captured you, and you are part of Elizabeth’s team.”
“You know the princess? That’s great! I’m part of her highness’s team and was ambushed by those people when I was out collecting herbs. After I woke up, I was locked up here!”
“Why did they capture you?” Lu Yu said as he approached the cage to open it.
The girl walked out of the room, still trembling in fear.
“They want to sell me to the Truth Department and use me as raw material for a truth potion!” She said in fear.
Lu Yu clenched his fists when he heard this.
“It seems that Zhang Jianlong is just like the people from the Battle Pet Club of the lower house!”
“What an animal!”
“Bring her up, and then let her go back.”
Wang Meng nodded and looked at the girl. “Come with me. You can leave this place.”
The girl followed Wang Meng and left the basement. Before she left, she looked at Lu Yu and said, “I’ll remember you. Thank you for saving my life.”
Lu Yu didn’t reply and just looked around the basement.
He saw a piece of paper on a wooden table. He quickly walked over, picked up the paper, and looked closer. There was a time and date written down on it.
The time for the transaction is three in the afternoon.
Lu Yu hurriedly opened his phone to take a look. It was already 3:10 p.m.!
In other words, the time for the transaction had arrived, and the Truth Department had already been here!
However, Lu Yu and the rest were cleaning up the stronghold then.
Lu Yu frowned slightly. If that was the case, it seemed their whereabouts had been exposed!
