Chapter 687 Lost Contact

In the office, Lu Yu looked at Lin Zhanyu and sighed helplessly.

“Now that we’re having internal and external problems, we’re in big trouble.”

Lin Zhanyu nodded silently, agreeing with Lu Yu.

!!

“That’s right. But don’t worry. You can go and do your things while we take care of the matters in the military.”

Lu Yu shrugged his shoulders. “Even if you let me handle it, I can’t.”

Lin Zhanyu only smiled. “What’s your next plan?”

“I’m going to w.a.n.g Meng first. He’s in the Stellaris Autonomous Zone, and I don’t know the situation there. The Red Heart Chamber of Commerce is collaborating with the Truth Department, so I need to go there and see what’s going on.”

“The Red Heart Chamber of Commerce is your everyday organization. You must be careful when you go there!” Lin Zhanyu reminded him cautiously.

“Don’t worry; the Star Science Chamber of Commerce has already agreed to cooperate with me. We are allies, so I won’t be alone there.”

Lin Zhanyu frowned slightly. “Is it even credible that they’ve become allies with you? What if they’re just lying about it?”

“They will be my allies even if they don’t want to. Unless the president doesn’t want his son anymore!”

Lin Zhanyu immediately understood what was going on. “I see. You have his son’s lifeline in your hands and a common enemy. It’s normal for you two to form an alliance…”

“You should hurry then. I’ll contact you immediately and let you know if anything happens here.”

Lu Yu looked at Lin Zhanyu with some dissatisfaction and reminded him, “Get my aunt here as soon as possible. I don’t want her to stay there any longer!”

“I understand. I’ll get this done as soon as possible. I definitely won’t let her become your weakness. Leave this to me.”

“By the way, where’s Xu Mo?”

“He’s on a mission and won’t be back for now. But I can stop his mission if you want to borrow him.”

“No, just let him do his thing.”

Lu Yu didn’t fully trust Xu Mo as they didn’t spend much time together, and Lu Yu still hadn’t acknowledged him.

“Alright. Are you leaving now or waiting for someone?”

Lu Yu turned to Xu Yuan and Yun Zirou and asked, “Do you two have anything else to add?”

Xu Yuan shook his head. “I’m fine, and Zirou should be fine too. Let’s go to Stellaris together.”

“Alright, let’s go!”

At this moment, Lin Zhanyu quickly took out a doc.u.ment and placed it on the table.

“If you want to go to the Stellaris Autonomous Zone, you must first teleport to Ixdale and then from Ixdale to one of the border cities. Changlin City is a good choice.”

“When you’re there, you can head to the teleportation node; choose a channel that leads you to the Stellaris Autonomous Zone.”

“Changlin City is a good city because it’s a famous holiday resort with beautiful scenery. You can also choose to relax there for a short moment.”

Lu Yu nodded slightly. “I understand. I’ll be there as soon as possible.”

Lu Yu stood up, stepped back, and pushed his chair under the table.

“We’ll be taking our leave. After I find my friend, I’ll head to the ancient ruins.”

“The ancient ruins?”

“Yeah. The ancient ruins are the first line of defense against the Truth Department, and it’s also where the Ember Empire will be revived. I will fight my enemies there.”

“Okay, I support you on that, but the situation there is more complicated than you can imagine. You have to be careful.”

“I know; I’ll be going then.”

Lu Yu walked to the door, pushed it open, and walked out.

Lin Zhanyu followed with a smile.

“Let’s go. I’ll accompany you to the teleportation point.”

Lin Zhanyu and the others walked out toward the square.

Walking on the streets of the base, Lin Zhanyu chuckled and said, “Base one has not defended against a beast tide for a long time. Otherwise, I would’ve liked to show you my skills.”

“You’ll have plenty of chances in the future. Our enemies are so powerful that you won’t be able to avoid a battle even if you want to.” Lu Yu replied with a smile.

The four of them laughed as they walked. From time to time, pa.s.sersby would sneak a glance at them, peeking at them secretly.

Lu Yu could sense that he was being watched and knew there were many people under General Yan here to gather information.

Lu Yu and Lin Zhanyu could only chat about some topics of no value as they slowly arrived at the teleportation node.

Standing on the teleportation node, Lu Yu waited a while before noticing cracks in the sky.

“The portal is open. Go to Ixdale and head to Changlin City to find your friend. I will keep in close contact with you once you’ve started your next moves.”

Lu Yu nodded. “We’ll be leaving now.”

The portal opened, and Lu Yu took the lead in entering it.

“Goodbye, General Lin. We’ll be back soon!” Xu Yaun said his goodbyes to Lin Zhanyu and followed Lu Yu in.

Yun Zirou didn’t say anything and walked in decisively.

After pa.s.sing through the portal, Lu Yu returned to the top of the central building at Ixdale!

Swoosh!

Strong gusts of wind blew, making Lu Yu feel comfortable and relaxed. Looking ahead, he could see the entirety of Ixdale underneath him.

Today’s weather was clear. Otherwise, there would be a large sea of clouds below him.

Soon, the three left the rooftop and took the elevator downstairs.

Lu Yu and the other two found a chair and sat down in the main lobby. Looking at the pa.s.sersby, Lu Yu took out his phone and found Han Xuefei’s number.

He dialed her number and waited for a moment.

“Why isn’t she picking up?” Lu Yu put down his phone and redialed the number.

However, even after waiting longer, no one picked up.

“What’s going on? Why isn’t Han Xuefei answering my call?” Lu Yu asked with some suspicion. After five months, had she forgotten about her friends?

“Maybe she just forgot to take her phone,” Xu Yuan said quickly. “You can try again later.”

“It’s you calling. She wouldn’t have ignored it,” Yun Zirou added.

Lu Yu nodded and answered calmly, “Yeah, I’ll wait.”

At that moment, a young man sat beside Lu Yu and immediately started talking to him.

“Are you looking for Han Xuefei?”

Lu Yu turned his head to look at this stranger. He didn’t know him, nor did he know who he was.

“Do you know Han Xuefei?” Lu Yu asked.

“Who doesn’t know her here? Have you not been to Ixdale for a while?” The stranger asked with a smile.

“I haven’t been here for almost half a year.”

“No wonder. Three months ago, something big happened here. It’s no wonder you didn’t know, not being here.”

Lu Yu frowned slightly. “Tell me, what happened?”

“If you want to know something, at least show me you’re sincere about it, right?” He rubbed his fingers, signaling Lu Yu to pay up.

“It’s up to you whether you want to say it or not; I can always ask someone else.” As he spoke, Lu Yu was about to stand up.

“Hey, relax,” the stranger replied hurriedly. “Forget it. Since you’re in such a hurry, I won’t waste more time.”
