Chapter 448 The Sixth Person Joins

After everyone’s hard work, the stronghold was finally operating normally. Many people were already rubbing their hands and couldn’t wait to go out and explore ancient ruins.

In this massive secret realm, there were countless opportunities. Any one of these opportunities would change an average person’s life dramatically.

After their time here, the hundreds of people who would be able to leave here alive would transform into first-class powerhouses.

Most of the upper house instructors had entered ancient ruins before, which was why they were so strong and able to secure their positions as upper house instructors.

At night, Lu Yu laid on his bed, suffering from insomnia. He had no idea if he could find the body of the Death Spirit Dragon here, and he didn’t even know when the Death Spirit Dragon would take over his body.

He could only continue to move and look forward.

Outside his room, the only light in the entire stronghold was from the bonfire and the torches on the four watchtowers.

The surroundings were dead silent and pitch black.

The stronghold was shrouded in darkness, like a lonely boat sailing on the vast, unexplored sea.

The night passed quickly, and Lu Yu woke up early the following day to wash up.

After arriving at this secret realm, Lu Yu was a little excited. He was looking forward to meeting all kinds of enemies here.

After washing up, Lu Yu walked out of his room and went downstairs.

In the fitness area, Lu Yu saw Wang Meng doing heavy push-ups. The massive weight on his back was like a ball of cotton to him, and he was doing push-ups that looked easy.

“You’re working out early in the morning, hardworking dude.” Lu Yu walked over and commented.

After Wang Meng finished a push-up, he stood up and smiled at Lu Yu. “How can I not be hardworking? It wasn’t easy for me to come to the ancient ruins, so I must continue to work hard. This is a rare opportunity, and I’m afraid this is the only chance I will have.”

“Right, where are the others?”

Lu Yu asked as they were going to explore the ancient ruins today. They had to make ample preparations.

“They’re preparing the supplies in the warehouse. Why don’t we go over and take a look?”

Lu Yu nodded and went with Wang Meng to the warehouse inside the stronghold.

Everyone here had storage rings, a standard item in this world. These rings alone could be used as a portable warehouse, more functional than actual warehouses.

The warehouse situated in their stronghold was more for the purpose of checking and counting items.

After all, it was hard to check the items in detail when you put them in your storage ring, and there was no way to confirm if they could still be used.

Lu Yu and Wang Meng arrived at the warehouse and found that it was just a small one, only the size of two basketball courts.

The warehouse was spacious, as only a few items of various sizes were placed on the ground.

Lu Yu and Wang Meng walked over, noticing Yun Zirou, Su Qing, and Xu Yuan looking at the things on the ground in deep thought.

“How is the preparation going?”

“I’ve brought tents and food, and everything has been checked. We’ve also prepared a lot of other items.”

Xu Yuan continued, “We won’t have to worry too much about potions as we have enough. We also brought some special potions that can temporarily increase your strength.”

“Then, there are the array formations scrolls. I’ve packed some teleportation scrolls that have their teleportation points marked to this stronghold. I brought ten of them.”

“I also took along protective spells, fire spells, summoning spells, and so on.”

Lu Yu glanced at the items on the ground and couldn’t help but nod. “You guys are quite well prepared.”

“Then let’s go now. The holy temple is definitely a treasure spot that countless people are jealous of. We should go there as soon as possible so that others don’t get there first.”

Lu Yu looked at Xu Yuan and asked, “Are there only three teams that entered the ancient ruins this time? We, the Lionheart Empire, and the Stellaris Autonomous Zone.”

“No, there are more teams from our three regions. The royal family and army of the Lionheart Empire, the two Chambers of Commerce from Stellaris with Clanorth University and a team from the army from the Freedom Federation.”

“If that’s the case, does that mean that there are at least six teams in this ancient ruin?”

Xu Yuan nodded. “That’s right, and our team might be the smallest with only 100 people.”

“If it were the Lionheart Empire’s army, it would be possible for tens of thousands of them to enter.”

“Since there’s no limit to the number of people, why don’t we bring more people in?” Lu Yu asked curiously.

“No, this is something that only the Lionheart Empire does. After all, they have a strict hierarchy, and the people’s lives at the bottom don’t matter. It’s fine if they die.”

“Ancient ruins are hazardous. So, weaklings here are worse than cannon fodder, and an ordinary beast here has the potential to slaughter a team of them.”

“The Empire brought many of their people here, and their biggest use is probably to exchange their lives for information…”

Lu Yu nodded with understanding. “I see. But this means that the speed of our exploration with just 100 people can’t be compared to theirs.”

“Alright, since you’re all prepared, let’s go.”

With a flash of light, the mountain-like pile of resources was instantly stored in their rings.

They walked out of the warehouse and headed toward the main entrance of the stronghold.

After that, they immediately changed their daily clothes into combat equipment.

Many of the busy team members greeted him.

“Captain, are we going out to explore so soon?”

“The captain is sure looking handsome in that outfit. I wish you a glorious victory!”

“Leave the rear to us. I guarantee that there won’t be any problems!”

Lu Yu walked forward quickly, smiling and waving to them from time to time.

Among these team members, many were stronger than Lu Yu. However, they were willing to obey Lu Yu, not only because he saved their lives but also because of his future potential. He would become a world-level powerhouse, and these people all wanted to get on Lu Yu’s good side.

At that moment, a figure suddenly appeared beside Lu Yu and called out to him.

“Captain, can you bring me along?”

Lu Yu felt that the voice sounded familiar. So, he turned around and realized that it was Han Xuefei!

She looked at Lu Yu with a smile, and her cold and aloof aura from before was completely gone. After all, in this stronghold, her strength was no longer at the top but at the bottom.

Lu Yu looked at her curiously and asked, “What are you doing here?”

Lu Yu didn’t even see her when they were standing in line.

“Because I’m an esper, I was assigned here as well. If you want to go out and explore, can you take me with you?”

She looked at Lu Yu with anticipation.

Lu Yu turned around and wanted to ask for the opinions of his other team members, but he saw Yun Zirou and Su Qing looking at Han Xuefei with vigilance.
