Chapter 552 Star Science Chamber of Commerce
Lu Yu discovered a clue after analyzing it with his Eye of the Dragon God. There were three sets of human footprints in total.
In other words, three people once stood here and walked together.
The people on duty here usually stood in the same place and rarely went out. Moreover, there were at most two people on duty at a time.
Therefore, Lu Yu was confident that the three footprints heading out were those of Wang Meng being taken away by two other people!
“Follow me. I saw Wang Meng’s footprints!”
Lu Yu stated as he began to walk forward.
The other four stood still for a moment before following Lu Yu.
They didn’t expect Lu Yu to find a clue so quickly.
Moreover, they couldn’t see anything. The surroundings were bare and covered in all kinds of snow. Where were the clues Lu Yu spoke of?
However, they all trusted Lu Yu, so they followed him and continued forward.
It was pitch-black all around as it was late at night, and they couldn’t even see their own fingers.
Typically, they would have to take out their flashlights to light up their surroundings.
However, Su Qing raised her hand, and two balls of light appeared. In an instant, the surroundings were illuminated brightly.
The two balls of light followed the team and continued to shine their lights over their surroundings.
Although Lu Yu also had the light element, he didn’t have the ability to create a ball of light. He could only use his dragon arms to light up his surroundings if he had to.
Following the clues, Lu Yu and the others quickly walked down the snowy mountains and entered the jungle.
As he shuttled through the forest at night, danger lurked everywhere.
As they advanced, they could hear rustling sounds from time to time in the surrounding bushes. It was obvious that some predators were moving around.
These ferocious beasts were lying dormant in their surroundings, waiting for an opportunity to attack their prey.
At that moment, Lu Yu suddenly stood still.
“The surrounding beasts are watching us. Wait for me.”
The next moment, a terrifying pressure burst out from Lu Yu’s body.
Behind him, the illusionary image of a huge holy dragon appeared and let out a soul-shaking dragon roar.
Boom!
A terrifying pressure poured out in all directions, scaring the surrounding beasts into running away. In an instant, the surroundings quiet down.
“I’m just going to put some pressure on them. Let’s not let these animals waste our time.”
Lu Yu said as he continued walking.
Their surroundings were still pitch-black, but fortunately, two light balls were shining around them. Lu Yu and the others were walking through the forest with the help of Su Qing’s illumination.
After moving forward for about half an hour, the footprints suddenly disappeared from Lu Yu’s sight.
Lu Yu stood in place, looking at the ground in front of him and falling into deep thought.
The footprints in front of him had disappeared, but what was left were tire marks.
“There are car tire marks here!”
Lu Yu exclaimed in surprise.
At that time, Xu Yuan walked over and carefully looked at the ground. After a long silence, he said, “There’s probably only one force that can drive in these ancient ruins.”
Lu Yu looked at Xu Yuan and asked curiously, “Who?”
“The Star Science Chamber of Commerce. In Stellaris Autonomous Zone, there are two major chambers of commerce. One is the Red Heart Chamber of Commerce, and the other is the Star Science Chamber of Commerce.
“Both chambers of commerce placed great emphasis on technological development. The Red Heart Chamber of Commerce focuses on biotechnology, while the Star Science Chamber of Commerce focuses on modern tech development.”
“Only the Star Science Chamber of Commerce would bring their cars into these ancient ruins.”
“After all, we won’t be able to drive the cars we brought in.”
Lu Yu found Xu Yuan’s words to be strange.
“Are you saying that the Star Science Chamber of Commerce’s cars can be driven in such an environment? Is that true? The trees around here are so dense that no car should be able to drive here, right?”
“Even an off-road vehicle that is specialized in the wilderness might not be able to drive in this environment.”
At that moment, Lu Yu looked at the ground and made a new discovery. The tire marks of this car were tiny!
“That’s right,” Xu Yuan quickly added. “The cars of the Star Science Chamber of Commerce can fly!”
Hearing this, Lu Yu and the others were surprised.
“The Star Science Chamber of Commerce’s vehicles can fly?” Yun Zirou asked curiously.
Han Xuefei looked at them in surprise. “Wait, you guys don’t even know this? You guys sure know little about the Star Science Chamber of Commerce.”
Lu Yu helplessly shrugged his shoulders. “Because it’s useless. The things I learned in school were all things from the Freedom Federation.”
“As for the Red Heart Chamber of Commerce, the Star Science Chamber of Commerce, and so on, I don’t even have the chance to know about them.”
“They likely summoned the car here,” Xu Yuan explained. “Then, they flew up and left this place.”
“I’m 100% sure that the people who took Wang Meng away are from the Star Science Chamber of Commerce!”
Hearing this, Lu Yu couldn’t help but frown. “If that’s the case, it will be a little difficult to continue this search. The clues end here, and there’s no way to continue tracking them!”
After coming down from the snowy mountains, they had been headed south. They had no idea how far they had gone, and it would be a pity if the clues were to end here.
“There’s nothing we can do. After they took off, we couldn’t find any traces of their direction.” Xu Yuan said helplessly.
Lu Yu looked at the ground, carefully observing the remaining tire marks.
Soon, he found some clues. “These tire marks are likely left behind when they take off. Following the direction of the tire marks, we can accurately find the direction they took off.”
Lu Yu’s discovery made Xu Yuan and the others come over and observe carefully.
Most importantly, these people would fly straight toward their destination in their flying car. There was no need to make any more turns in the air.
In other words, the tire marks before them pointed to the Star Science Chamber of Commerce’s stronghold with precision!
This discovery made Xu Yuan and the others excited.
“You’re absolutely right; that’s exactly how it is! As long as we follow the direction of the tire marks, we will definitely find the Star Science Chamber of Commerce’s stronghold!”
Lu Yu stood up and started to move forward.
“The key is that we can’t afford an error in our direction. We have to move forward in the right direction.”
Lu Yu stated as he took out his compass and led the way.
Xu Yuan and the others followed behind and continued forward.
Their speed of advancement through the jungle got slightly slower, but their direction was accurate.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the dense forest around them got sparser.
Their surroundings turned emerald green as green bamboo stood tall in their surroundings.
Further ahead, there was a green bamboo forest.
These bamboos were tall, more than ten meters high, and the bamboo leaves were dense, which could cover many things…
