Chapter 463 The Strength Of The Two Chambers Of Commerce
The five people in front of Lu Yu all nodded, indicating they could continue fighting. After a night’s rest, they had all recovered quite well.
“The man who died yesterday told us the information he got before he died. The stronghold of the Red Heart Chamber of Commerce is at the foot of a northern snowy mountain.”
“Let’s head north. We should be able to find them soon.”
“That’s right,” Xu Yuan continued. “We’ve only been here for a day, and some of our team members have already met the people of the Red Heart Chamber of Commerce. In other words, we’re not too far away from each other.”
Lu Yu nodded in agreement. “But it’s also possible that they’re expanding too quickly.”
“Whatever. We must let Jiang Lintian know he messed with someone he shouldn’t have.”
“Also, with such a threat occupying our northern area, our future exploration activities will become more difficult.”
“One of our members died yesterday. I’m afraid we’ll encounter more accidents today and tomorrow. We must take the initiative to attack back.”
Lu Yu stood up and walked towards the entrance of the stronghold.
“Everyone, let’s go. It’s time to teach them a lesson.”
Lu Yu walked forward, with Xu Yuan and the others following closely behind.
As the six walked forward, the other team members on both sides of the path greeted Lu Yu respectfully.
However, everyone’s faces differed from their excitement when they first arrived. There was now a hint of fear.
The death of a team member yesterday made them depressed. They realized the dangerous environment in the ancient ruins and that this danger wasn’t just from the unknown beasts or enemies but also from other forces.
Everyone knew they had little chance of winning against the Red Heart Chamber of Commerce’s team.
Although there was a big difference in numbers, their members’ average strength was much higher than the Red Heart Chamber of Commerce’s. But even so, it wasn’t easy for just a hundred of them to fight against a thousand.
“Captain, are you going out to avenge our team member?” A person standing by the path asked.
Lu Yu looked at him and replied, “That’s right. I will help take revenge and also teach the enemy a lesson. Otherwise, we won’t be able to go out and cultivate or explore.”
Lu Yu’s words made everyone excited.
“That’s great! We should take the initiative to fight back. They’re getting out of hand!”
“Captain, let me join. I want to fight too!”
“Those group of bastards, doing whatever they want just because they’re rich. What’s there to be proud of when a group of merchants gather?”
“Captain, I want to join too. Let me show those bastards how powerful we are!”
Lu Yu glanced at them and quickly rejected their request.
“Everyone, you all should explore the surrounding area first. If you have nothing to do, cultivate. Leave this matter to me. This is a conflict between our us captains.”
Lu Yu and Jiang Lintian were the reasons for the conflict between the two teams. Therefore, from this perspective, Lu Yu didn’t intend to bring anyone else.
Soon, Lu Yu arrived at the gate, and Jiang Ning came to see him off.
“Captain, keep in touch at all times. Inform me immediately if you encounter any danger.”
Jiang Ning reminded him nervously.
Lu Yu nodded and replied, “I’ll try my best. However, after they discover us, they might use a signal-blocking device. We can’t guarantee that we’ll be able to contact you.”
“Please believe us. You just stay here and manage the stronghold.”
Jiang Ning nodded, becoming more respectful toward Lu Yu.
“I heard that you created a club. If possible, I’d really like to join.”
Jiang Ning couldn’t help but request.
Lu Yu smiled. “You’re the president of the upper house’s student council. If you join my club, wouldn’t that be a demotion?”
“The position of the president of the student council is for training,” Jiang Ning said self-mockingly. “Besides, joining your club won’t be considered a demotion.”
Lu Yu patted her shoulder. “We’ll talk about it in the future.”
With that, Lu Yu turned around and left, passing through the rising gate.
The team of six walked out again and entered the dense forest that stretched as far as the eye could see.
Lu Yu was temporarily unaware of the dangers ahead, but because of this, he wanted to explore this area!
“Red Heart Chamber of Commerce, let’s see what you are capable of!”
Lu Yu muttered to himself.
The six-man team began to walk quickly through the forest. They had no clear destination but only one specific direction—going north.
As the group moved forward, they would chat from time to time.
“Hey, this sword of mine is really powerful.”
As Wang Meng walked, he swung his sword at a tree as thick as a person’s waist.
The blade sliced through the tree as if it were tofu, and the tree fell heavily to the ground.
Boom!
The tree fell, and it sent the surrounding birds flying.
“Can’t you use your brain a little? Aren’t you afraid of attracting the enemy?” Xu Yuan couldn’t help but curse.
Wang Meng scratched his head and laughed awkwardly. “I’m just trying it out. I’m not going to do it again.”
“By the way, I think your armor is pretty good. Do you want me to try hacking with my sword?”
“Go play somewhere else,” Xu Yuan replied, waving his hand.
From time to time, the two men would argue, bicker, and laugh.
Lu Yu came to the three girls and looked at Han Xuefei.
“I know you know a lot about these two chambers of commerce. Can you share more of those insights with me?”
Lu Yu wanted to know more about these chambers of commerce. He didn’t want to fight unprepared, nor did he want to fight with little information.
It was easy to make mistakes when fighting against an unknown enemy.
Han Xuefei thought for a moment and replied, “These big conglomerates are mainly researching high-tech stuff. They are all about modern technology.”
“They don’t care about basic business activities and are only involved in top technology research.”
“Therefore, their influence in this area is powerful. There is barely anyone who can go against them.”
“Even the military’s technological advancement isn’t as progressive as theirs.”
Lu Yu nodded. “It seems they have the right to be this arrogant.”
“They have divided modern technology into two categories, biotechnology and mechanical technology. These two branches represent the two major chambers of commerce, the Red Heart Chamber of Commerce and the Star Science Chamber of Commerce.”
“Wait, the Red Heart Chamber of Commerce is researching biotechnology?”
“That’s right. This is their main field, and they’re competing with Star Science.”
Lu Yu carefully recalled and seemed to have thought of something. He quickly asked, “The Truth Department’s research area should also be considered biotechnology, right?”
Han Xuefei hesitated for a moment and nodded slightly. “Yes, that’s right.”
