Chapter 597 Obtaining More Information
Xu Mo didn’t take the Truth Department seriously and said there was no problem with him helping.
Lu Yu looked at him and asked seriously, “Do you know anything about the Truth Department?”
“Not many. I’ve carried out a few missions related to them. However, they don’t give me a strong impression.”
!!
Lu Yu shook his head slightly. “The Truth Department headquarters is here in the ancient ruins, and the members you meet outside are not the strongest in their organization.”
Xu Mo was weirded out when he heard that. He quickly asked, “What? Their headquarters are in these ancient ruins? How is this possible?”
“That’s right; that’s exactly the problem. They have something that allows them to communicate with the outside world and even travel back and forth between the two worlds.”
Hearing this, Xu Mo was even more surprised. “This is strange. It’s troublesome to connect the ancient ruins to our world; it only opens for a month every year. They should be out there during this time, right?”
Lu Yu shook his head decisively, rejecting his idea. “No, that’s not the case. They have something called a Claine Crystal. If you break this thing, you can connect the two worlds. You can open a small teleportation gate if you break a larger version of the crystal.”
Hearing that, Xu Mo fell into deep thought. “I’ve never heard of this before. How did you know?”
“I fought against someone from their headquarters here. I caught one and extracted this information out of him.”
“In that case, do you know the true strength of the Truth Department? If the two of us go there, won’t we just be sending ourselves to our deaths?” Xu Mo asked.
Lu Yu shook his head slightly. “To be honest, I don’t know the true strength of the Truth Department, but it’s obvious that they are far stronger than us.”
“What are we going there for if that’s the case? Isn’t this just seeking death?”
“I am planning to go and investigate them and try to get more information.”
“I’ve already taken control of a mine that produces Claine Crystals. In other words, we can travel back and forth between the two worlds, like the Truth Department.”
Xu Mo immediately knew what Lu Yu was thinking. “I see. You want to get to the bottom of the situation and then call in reinforcements from outside, right?”
Lu Yu nodded slightly. “That’s right. We have a chance of winning this way, don’t we?”
“By the way, can you tell me what the Truth Department’s headquarters is doing here?”
Xu Mo felt that a piece of the puzzle was missing. What could the Truth Department want in this desolate place?
Lu Yu looked at Xu Mo and asked, “In the ancient ruins, did you encounter some old and dilapidated buildings, so old that they look like ruins from an ancient era?”
Xu Mo nodded. “That’s right, we did. Some enemies will always wake up, and we’ll get powerful equipment after defeating them.”
Lu Yu looked at Xu Yuan and went silent for a moment.
Xu Yuan quickly answered, “It’s okay. Xu Mo is in the special forces of the military. He knows a bunch of confidential information and is also tight-lipped. Don’t worry and tell him.”
Lu Yu looked at Xu Mo again and told him all the information he had obtained about the Ember Empire and their takeover plan.
Xu Mo followed Lu Yu, listening to him earnestly as they walked.
After hearing Lu Yu’s words, his expression hardened.
“From what you’ve said, the Truth Department doesn’t seem to be a small organization when they’re capable of brewing such a huge conspiracy!”
“It seems like exterminating them is something that must be done.”
“Their work now must be to assist the Ember Empire to recover and to take over the world again.”
Lu Yu shrugged his shoulders. “Of course. First, their language is different from ours, so they will need someone to translate our language. Furthermore, after sleeping for thousands of years, they would have to relearn how to function in the modern world.”
“You can think of the Truth Department as a group of henchmen to the real villain, but these people are basically lunatics. We have to destroy them once and for all.”
After Lu Yu finished speaking, Xu Mo nodded in agreement. “No problem, the both of us will undergo this mission. We’ll have to investigate the situation and report to the military.”
At that moment, Wang Meng was unhappy after hearing that. “Why is it that it’s only the two of you? What about us?”
“More people, more trouble, isn’t that the case?”
Xu Mo glanced at Wang Meng and added, “This is an investigative quest. Do you understand what it entails?”
Wang Meng pouted unhappily, but he didn’t reply to that.
“If it’s the two of us. We won’t attract too much attention.”
“How strong are you?” Lu Yu asked curiously. “You should be at platinum rank, right?”
Xu Mo chuckled. “Of course.”
After that, he stood up again with a cold and expressionless face.
“Should we leave now, or…?”
Lu Yu asked.
“Up to you. I’m free, especially now. No one can order me around.”
“Only you know about that place, so I can only follow you.”
Lu Yu nodded slightly. “Alright then, we’ll set off now. The others can stay here and help rebuild the stronghold and clean up the battlefield.”
“No problem; leave it to us,” Xu Yuan immediately nodded and replied.
Wang Meng demanded unhappily, “I also want to join the fight against the Truth Department. Isn’t it just an investigation? Can’t I do that too?”
Xu Yuan glared at him and whispered, “Stop being meddlesome. Just clean up the battlefield. You won’t even know how you die if you join this mission with your current strength!”
Wang Meng pouted unwillingly and left, following the soldiers to clean up the battlefield.
Xu Yuan and the others also began to join in rebuilding the stronghold, leaving only Lu Yu and Xu Mo standing where they were.
“Alright, let’s go. How do we get there? Is it far?”
“It’s not too far. Let’s go to the mines I took over, and then we’ll go north.”
“Alright, take out your teleportation scroll.”
Lu Yu took a scroll out of his pocket watch and handed it to Xu Mo.
“Use this scroll to teleport to the stronghold of the upper house.”
Xu Mo frowned slightly. “Aren’t we going to the mines?”
“To not expose the location of the mines too quickly, I set up a layer of protection.”
Xu Mo nodded slightly, having a rough idea of Lu Yu’s operation.
“No problem, but there are only a few other forces in the ancient ruins. Haven’t they discovered it yet?”
Lu Yu pondered for a moment. The two teams from the Chamber of Commerce had been mostly destroyed, and only the two teams from the Lionheart Empire were left.
Although Lu Yu was friends with the princess of the Lionheart Empire, he was still unwilling to expose the mines to them. After all, the mines were too precious.
“Open the scroll first; I’ll give you the next one after you reach our destination.”
