Chapter 66: Strangled in the Cradle

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

When Qin Yong and the others heard Lu Yu’s words, they immediately heaved a sigh of relief.

They had just heard the sounds of fighting and were extremely worried about Lu Yu. However, their strength was limited, and they were afraid that they wouldn’t be able to help Lu Yu if they had rushed over and would instead cause trouble for him.

Fortunately, Lu Yu returned safely and nothing happened to him.

At this moment, they couldn’t help sizing up Lu Yu. His body was covered with blood, and it all belonged to the Fearsome Beasts.

They were already inside the core area of the blood-sucking wasteland. The Fearsome Beasts that roamed this part of the land were naturally high-level beasts that were extremely powerful. After all, the weak Fearsome Beasts would not dare to come near this place.

And in such a short time, Lu Yu had already dispatched the powerful Fearsome Beasts over there?

Qin Yong and the others couldn’t help feeling astounded inwardly, wondering just how terrifying Captain Lu’s strength was.

Lu Yu tossed the water bottles to them and said indifferently, “I’ll take over guard duty. You guys quickly drink some water and rest a while. Then, we’ll continue on our way. We’re not far from the core area now. We must rush there as soon as possible.”

“Yes, Sir!”

After resting for a while, Lu Yu led Qin Yong and the others to continue on their way.

According to the map, they were not far from the mine with the Dark Gold Mineral Ore vein. Lu Yu would be able to locate the last ingredient he needed there, which was rose rock salt.

After gathering all three rare ingredients, Lu Yu would have everything he needed to utilize the second special cooking method indicated in the Sky Valley Culinary Method, the Spring Water Stewing method. This method would definitely be able to stimulate the terrifying power within the meat of the Scarlet Shaggy Mammoth.

When the time came, combined with Lu Yu’s Gluttony Talent, he would be able to make another ruthless leap in increasing his strength.

......

In addition, according to the latest news he received, the person they had to rescue should be near the Dark Gold Mineral Ore vein located in the core area of the blood-sucking wasteland. Over there, Lu Yu would be able to locate the other rescue personnel and complete the rescue mission.

The group headed into the depths of the blood-sucking wasteland again. Along the way, they accidentally encountered two powerful Fearsome Beasts, but the creatures did not discover their presence. Thus the group was able to circle around them safely and continue on their way.

Fortunately, as this was already the core area of the blood-sucking wasteland, though the Fearsome Beasts here were strong, their numbers were low. It was much more convenient for Lu Yu and the others.

The group went deeper into the wasteland. Lu Yu’s bracelet suddenly lit up. There were two points marked on it. One was in the center, which was Lu Yu’s own location. The other was not very far from here. He figured it must be the location of the person they had to rescue.

“We’re already within the radius of influence. The smart bracelet has been activated. The person who needs to be rescued is not far from us. At the same time, according to the information we received, he is being guarded by powerful Fearsome Beasts with intelligence. Remember to be careful,” Lu Yu instructed in a low voice.

When Qin Yong and the others heard this, their expressions became grim immediately.

Most of the Fearsome Beasts were simplistic creatures. Therefore, although they were powerful, martial arts experts could still deal with them if they used their brains to strategize, such as overcoming their low numbers with higher numbers, or if they couldn’t defeat them, they could simply set up some traps and run away.

However, there were also a small number of Fearsome Beasts that were intelligent. Their intelligence was comparable to humans, and some of them were even more intelligent than humans.

This kind of Fearsome Beasts was the most terrifying. They had the strength and could use their brains. They were extremely difficult to deal with.

As for Fearsome Beasts with intelligence, their classification were generally not low since they were generally extremely powerful.

In addition, this was the blood-sucking wasteland, the home territory of the Fearsome Beasts. There were large numbers of Fearsome Beasts scattered everywhere, including many powerful ones.

Without a doubt, this operation was incredibly dangerous, life-threatening even.

If it weren’t for Lu Yu, this idol that they all worshiped so fervently in their hearts, Qin Yong and the others wouldn’t have taken the risk to embark on such a dangerous mission.

At the same time as Lu Yu’s smart bracelet was activated when they got within range of influence, another group of people in another corner were carefully moving towards the inner part of the blood-sucking wasteland.

There were only eight people in this group, but they were all elites. They were the dojo masters and deputy dojo masters of the four dojos.

All eight were very powerful. The weakest among them was a Martial Master at his peak, while the rest were at the level of Great Martial Master, so they were quite formidable.

Compared to the safe route that Lu Yu and the others had specially planned, Lu Yu’s route allowed them to bypass many powerful Fearsome Beasts and they had even taken many detours for the sake of safety.

There was no need for these 8 guys from the four dojos to go through so much trouble. Though their numbers were small, each individual was strong and powerful. Their path was smooth and unobstructed. Whenever they encountered any Fearsome Beasts, they simply slew them. As long as they were careful not to be besieged by large numbers of Fearsome Beasts, they could practically do whatever they wanted in this dangerous blood-sucking wasteland.

At this moment, Tan Jun called for everyone to stop while he checked the smart bracelet on his hand.

After checking a while, Tan Jun’s face lit up and he said, “Lu Yu’s smart bracelet has been activated. I can see his location now. Let’s hurry over.”

“We finally know his location now. Otherwise, we will be wandering around like headless chicken in this place.”

“Lu Yu is quite talented. Unfortunately, he’s about to be eliminated.”

“His talent is not bad, but since he can’t be used by us, he’s destined to be an enemy in the future. Such a genius must be eliminated as soon as possible. Otherwise, he will definitely become a huge problem in the future.”

“Indeed, geniuses that can’t be used by us must be strangled in the cradle as soon as possible.”

“The City Lord has surely mobilized too many people this time. He actually sent the strongest eight people from our four dojos to head out together to deal with a mere Lu Yu.”

“That’s right. Although this Lu Yu is quite talented, he has only just advanced to a Great Martial Master. How powerful can he be? I alone am enough to deal with him.”

“He did this to be on the safe side. Everyone should understand that we have to go deep into the blood-sucking wasteland after all, so it’s better to entrust it to more people. It’s not easy for all of us to reach this level of skills development.”

“That’s true. Let’s hurry up and get rid of Lu Yu. Perhaps we can return to Lunan City by tonight and have a drink together. Hahaha!”

“…”

As the eight chatted, they were all in a good mood. They felt that they were almost certain to resolve the matter with Lu Yu successfully. After all, with the strongest eight people from the four dojos working together, it would be a piece of cake to deal with Lu Yu, who had only just advanced to a Great Martial Master level.

Thereafter, the eight of them continued to move closer to Lu Yu.

Meanwhile, at the other side in Lunan City, inside the temporary residence of the Military Lord.

At this moment, Song Yu, who had just recovered from her injuries, hurried to the Military Lord’s temporary residence.

“I have something urgent to report. I need to see the Military Lord immediately,” Song Yu said outright.

The guards went in to report and quickly obtained the permission of the Military Lord, Xu Qingguo. Song Yu stepped inside.

In the hall, Xu Qingguo was somewhat relieved to see Song Yu.

Song Yu’s family background was very influential. She was from the main family of the Song Clan, whose roots went back a long way.

Xu Qingguo had always led a life of battle and war, so he was not afraid of these famous families. After all, he was the Military Lord of the Gamma Military Zone and a great general himself!

However, Xu Qingguo had always held Song Yu in high regard. With such a good background, she could have enjoyed a safe and wealthy lifestyle for the rest of her life. She could have also used all the rich cultivation resources at her disposal to train and develop herself into a powerful expert, and stand tall among her peers.

Indeed, Song Yu had many choices.

Instead, Song Yu chose the most difficult path and joined the military forces. She chose the extremely difficult path whereby she could lose her life at any time, and where the only redeeming point was that she could go to the battlefield to slay Fearsome Beasts to protect humanity and the country.

When Xu Qingguo saw Song Yu, his face was full of smiles as he said, “Song Yu, you’re here. You’ve just recovered from such a serious injury and you’re already rushing here to look for me. Is there something important?”
