“I’m fine with it, but the thing is, if the military finds out about this, they’ll definitely come looking for trouble with you!” Elizabeth spoke worriedly to Lu Yu.

Elizabeth furrowed her brows in concern for Lu Yu.

“Let them come. Let’s see who is scared of who! Those guys deserve to die anyway,” w.a.n.g Meng sneered. “If your army comes to cause us trouble, we’ll kill them all!”

!!

w.a.n.g Meng’s words rendered Elizabeth speechless. “How can a small group of you fight an army? You will be unable to deal with just the sheer number of soldiers they have.”

w.a.n.g Meng shook his head disapprovingly. “That’s because you don’t understand my big brother’s strength. Even if there are a lot of them, it’s pointless. You’re all shotgun fodder.”

Elizabeth ceased speaking to him and continued to stare at Lu Yu.

“There shouldn’t have been anyone around when you killed that team, right?” Elizabeth inquired.

“No, but we didn’t bury the body. If they discover the truth, so be it. I’m not scared.”

“I’m afraid I can’t protect you,” Elizabeth admitted helplessly. “I don’t have the power to make the army follow my orders.”

“I do not need your protection. I’m currently a captain in the Freedom Federation military. If they want to make a move on me, they would have to consider the consequences.”

Elizabeth’s eyes widened in surprise as she heard this. In disbelief, she asked, “You are now… a captain? Is that correct?”

Although she didn’t know much about the military’s rank structure in the Freedom Federation, she knew that the rank of captain was considered a middle-level rank within the military. Most people could only take on such a significant role in their thirties or forties.

On the other hand, Lu Yu was promoted to captain at a young age. This was definitely a one-of-a-kind situation!

“You’ve already been promoted to captain? Isn’t that unusual? ” Elizabeth asked with much curiosity.

“You’re right,” Xu Yuan explained. “It is indeed uncommon. Furthermore, his military ranking was conferred personally by the military’s supreme commander. This is no laughing matter. He is now a young man highly valued by the military.”

“Based on this alone, I doubt they’ll make a move so quickly.”

“Mr. Xu Yuan is correct,” Elizabeth said with a slight nod. “They wouldn’t dare to do anything since Lu Yu is a captain. But honestly, I have no idea how they would specifically respond to this.”

“Perhaps,” w.a.n.g Meng added, “they have no idea who eliminated the team. I doubt they are even able to locate Lu Yu.”

Elizabeth gave a slight shake of her head. “You continue to underestimate their abilities. They’re almost certainly going to find you.”

Elizabeth spoke confidently, but w.a.n.g Meng remained skeptical.

But it was true that Lu Yu didn’t even bother to clean up the scene after killing that unit of soldiers.

“Let’s not get into that. I’ve come to speak with you about something more important.”

Elizabeth sat up and asked Lu Yu, “Tell me; I want to know what you guys just experienced.”

Lu Yu’s strength was mighty in her eyes. The enemy must have been terrifying to be able to cause him to lose one of his members!

“We’ve just discovered the Truth Department’s headquarters and successfully blew up their headquarters as planned. However, they had some options for dealing with it and minimizing the loss.”

“We encountered some setbacks along the way.”

“You need to know that we ran into your team of soldiers on our way back. In other words, according to the clues they’ve gotten, they were heading to the Truth Department’s headquarters!”

Elizabeth’s eyes widened as she heard this. Her blue pupils dilated, and her eyes were wide with wonder.

“You’re saying my brother is in the Truth Department?”

“You’re right, and that’s likely the case. The Truth Department kidnapped your brother.”

“You told me last time that the Third Prince disappeared from his room through a portal and entered the ancient ruins,” Lu Yu said, raising his head slightly.

“Before we enter the ancient ruins, only the Truth Department could open such a portal!”

“It appears that he was taken away by the Truth Department, but you just stated that you blew up the Truth Department’s headquarters. Doesn’t that imply…?”

Elizabeth gave Lu Yu an anxious look.

“He’s not dead. The core members of the Truth Department left quickly, and he should also be able to leave.”

“That’s great. At the very least, we have a clear clue and enough hope to find him…”

“What do you plan to do next? You lack the strength to save him.” Lu Yu bared the truth about her situation.

Elizabeth helplessly nodded. “You are correct. We are unable to save him from the Truth Department. I’m afraid we can only ask the Empire for a.s.sistance.”

The few people standing next to Lu Yu laughed.

“You’ll need the Claine Crystals if you need to call in reinforcements.” Xu Yuan said, smiling.

This was a big business, and they could make a lot of money from it.

Elizabeth nodded slightly and looked Lu Yu in the eyes, saying, “If you can help us with this, I will be eternally grateful.”

Elizabeth waved her hand, and a maid brought over a plate of precious fruits and several cups of hot tea.

“Alright, then, we can go over it slowly. Are we the only buyers of the crystals you’re excavating right now?” Elizabeth took a sip from her teacup.

“There’s also the Star Science Chamber of Commerce. They, too, require these crystals. You aren’t the only one who needs them.”

Lu Yu’s words informed her that she was not alone in this bid. She had to take something valuable out to exchange for it. Otherwise, there would be no reason to continue with this venture.

“Don’t worry; I’ll give you something that will definitely satisfy you.”

Elizabeth’s lips curled slightly upward. She found a clear clue to her brother’s whereabouts, and the haze in her heart had lifted.

“In that case, we’ll return first. If you have any questions, please contact us at any time.”

Lu Yu stood up with a smile on his face.

“Thank you for providing us with this information. I hope we can collaborate smoothly…”

A bodyguard pushed the door open and walked in quickly at this point.

“Your Highness, the army has arrived and wishes to see you!”

Elizabeth was a little taken aback. She gave Lu Yu a slight nod and motioned for him not to move. She then asked her bodyguard for more information.

“Can you tell me why they came to find me?”

“They’re looking for an enemy,” the bodyguard stated solemnly. “He a.s.sa.s.sinated one of our teams!”
