Health: 7,730 points. Attack: 2,240 points. Stamina: 6,340 points.
This is Lu Yu’s attribute after he upgraded to level two, wearing Life Guardian and possessing a level-two silver armor.
However, these are not all of his attributes.
For example, the Blood-igniting Blade with an attack power of nine hundred.
Immediately after using it, his attack power can exceed three thousand.
However, he had used this weapon in his capacity as the mine owner, so it could not be used in ordinary times.
The Blade of Burning Blood can be equipped to inherit its unique effect—if a creature’s health drops below 3,500 points, its blood will ignite instantly, causing immediate death.
Soul Gathering Hand – increases maximum life by 470 points and increases attack power by 360 points.
Although this weapon might not have high attack power, it was the one Lu Yu found most comfortable to use.
When attacked, his maximum health can stack up to one hundred thousand.
Six thousand jin of tendon and bone power—if it weren’t for a monster at the peak of the first level, he really couldn’t think of anyone who could break it.
The Soul Devouring skill of the Murder Star Soul hasn’t been calculated!
Of course, even if someone’s attack power has truly reached a level stronger than his!
He—still fearless!
Because—battle, he had never feared anyone!
Lu Yu’s belief is that as long as I have the ability to fight you, I will surely win.
And now, his willingness to stand here alone, waiting for a two-hundred-man squad, is precisely his confidence!
The sky grew darker, and the surrounding beast roars began anew. Many wild animals had already started moving within the city.
The place where Lu Yu stood was a highway leading out of the city. The road was twenty meters wide, with weeds over a meter high on both sides, and numerous abandoned and wrecked vehicles scattered across the highway. Behind Lu Yu, beyond a thousand meters away, stood the outermost buildings of Fanggang City—rows of villas and clusters of scattered, dilapidated old apartment blocks.
As for the road ahead, there was not a single living person to be seen, only burned-out and abandoned vehicles.
Amidst the weeds along both sides of the highway, Lu Yu could feel pairs of eyes staring at him.
A beast’s low growl, the heavy sound of its breath.
Lu Yu merely sneered slightly. The only creatures that could now pose a threat to him were the fully grown Blood Demon Bear and the Demon Ape; as for the rest of the life forms—fearless!
“Do you really think you can contend with us when you can’t even clear out the beasts in your own city?” Zhao Ye sneered. “I’ll give you some advice. By your strength alone, if you cooperate with us, I can guarantee you a place in this city. You kill us—”
Bang!
Before Zhao Ye could finish his words, Lu Yu kicked him to the ground.
Lu Yu stepped his foot onto Zhao Ye’s face, leaning down slightly with a cold expression and said, “I let you live, but that doesn’t mean I won’t rip your mouth apart! You dare to come to this city and act arrogantly with just a few dozen men. You occupy the mine and challenge the strongest man with merely two hundred people. I’d like to see what makes you think you can get away with this? Either I die, and you survive like a coward, or if I live, you will ultimately die. Do you understand?”
Zhao Ye was stepped on the head, his eyes gleaming with a venomous light, like the fangs of a poisonous snake.
But he could only grit his teeth and endure the pain again and again.
“Southeast of Fanggang, this is the only road leading into the city. Did they come through here?” Lu Yu asked, lifting his foot.
Zhao Ye was filled with boundless resentment as he coldly replied, “Since you already know, do you still need me to answer?”
He had never been spoken to like this before.
Today, someone at least ten years younger than him dared to step on his face with their foot, which was a tremendous humiliation to him.
“What I want is your answer. You’re in no position to question me right now—all you need to do is respond.” Lu Yu’s voice was icy cold as he suddenly increased the pressure of his foot on Zhao Ye’s knee.
“Crack!”
“Oh!”
Zhao Ye’s knee was crushed into pieces. He could feel his knee shattering into countless tiny fragments.
“Yes, they took this path.” Zhao Ye forced himself to suppress the urge to roar and curse.
He knew that this was not the time.
Wait until the squad arrives; he’ll make this person wish he were dead!
Lu Yu withdrew his foot and said, “Good! You can get up now!”
Zhao Ye trembled, gritted his teeth against the pain returning to his knees, and stood up.
It was already dark at night.
The roaring sounds from all around became even louder.
Under the starlight, the darkness outside the city seemed like light devoured by beasts, so gloomy and terrifying that it sent chills down one’s spine.
People began to appear around.
These people came not only from the camp at the stadium, but also from two other camps in Fanggang.
Starting with hundreds of people, then thousands.
Let’s not talk about how this matter came about first.
But these outsiders dare to openly proclaim occupation and even attempt to seize control within their own cities.
Just this one point alone is enough for these people to deserve death a thousand times over.
They gathered around and saw the person beside Lu Yu. Some of the people’s eyes immediately flared up with anger.
“Stay calm. Lu Yu has already taken action. Let’s see how it plays out,” someone said, stopping the angry person from rushing forward.
“That’s right. Lu Yu managed to kill the魔人猿. Although he’s not the strongest in Fanggang, he’s close enough. If he’s going to make a move, let’s watch first.”
“Is this the person?” Some people glared angrily at Zhao Ye. To dare to occupy a camp with only about thirty people, they were simply too arrogant.
“Damn it. If Lu Yu doesn’t kill him in the end, I’ll make sure to have him executed in the most painful way possible.”
“Remember his face. People like him won’t leave here alive.”
The crowd did not stand within the city, but instead stopped at a place not even hundreds of meters away from Lu Yu.
There were more and more people, and even bloodshot eyes began to appear.
Thousands of people, densely packed in clusters.
Even countless monstrous beasts began to scatter into the bushes, crouching low as if waiting for something.
Zhao Ye felt the growing number of people behind him and sneered with extreme disdain, saying, “With people like you, you’re truly asking for death!”
“I’m really looking forward to it,” Lu Yu said, staring at Zhao Ye with a faint smile. “Don’t worry. Before I die, you will die first! Of course, after your death, I might not necessarily die!”
Zhao Ye saw a glimmer of coldness and bloodlust in Lu Yu’s eyes.
He, he’s really serious about this!
Zhao Ye’s heart quivered. A chill ran up from his feet to the top of his head, and his scalp tingled repeatedly!
Time ticked away second by second. Around this highway, bloodshot eyes, people, and monsters gathered in vast numbers, as dark and dense as storm clouds pressing down upon the earth.
Moonlight poured down, casting its glow on the road and people…
Suddenly, the dark, ominous creature became restless.
A group of monsters began to wail, trembling all over as they prostrated themselves on the ground.
They held their heads with their claws, as if sensing that something extremely terrifying was about to happen.
Monsters are more sensitive.
However, many people’s instincts are just as strong, and they also sensed a great danger.
“Haha, here we go.”
Zhao Ye, noticing the unusual movements of the surrounding monsters, laughed maniacally: “You’re all waiting for death. If you kneel down and beg for mercy now, perhaps I can convince the leader to let you go. But wait any longer, and you won’t have another chance.”
“You sure talk a lot!” Lu Yu stared at Zhao Ye, a smirk playing on his lips. “Do you even have the right to speak?”
Zhao Ye closed his mouth and glared at Lu Yu with a vicious stare, as if he wanted to devour Lu Yu alive.
In the distance, at the end of the horizon.
There is the sound of a car coming from the darkness.
The roar of the engine grew louder and louder.
The front faces of the two armored vehicles had been modified with battering rams, clearing the way at the forefront by pushing aside the abandoned cars littering the road to either side.
Following the armored vehicle, more than ten large trucks came in succession.
Behind all the trucks, a giant container truck was the most striking.
The convoy moved slowly, not fast but with a heavy, oppressive feeling.
When the armored vehicle at the front spotted Zhao Ye, it immediately sounded its siren, causing the convoy to slow down and come to a stop.
At this moment, those monsters performed even worse; some even collapsed on the ground, unable to move.
Zhao Ye’s smile grew even wider at the corner of his mouth.
Several burly men ran down from the armored vehicle, and finally a man in his early thirties, with a fair complexion, stepped down and stood in the center among those strong men.
A pale-faced man, dressed neatly in a Zhongshan suit and with his hair combed neatly back, looked at Zhao Ye and then at Lu Yu, frowning. “Zhao Ye,” he said, “what’s going on here?”
“Boss, we failed,” Zhao Ye said through gritted teeth, looking at Lu Yu. “This man killed all of us. And he’s still here, trying to stop you.”
“Did one person kill all your team members?” The man in the Zhongshan suit looked at Lu Yu with slight surprise and said, “Not very old, yet quite powerful. It seems you’re the strongest person in Fanggang.”
Dressed in a Zhongshan suit, he flicked his finger at Lu Yu with an arrogant sneer, saying, “I’ll give you a chance—if you obey my orders now, I can guarantee your survival! Tsk tsk, you really have a lot of people.”
Lu Yu smiled and said, “I’m here waiting specifically to see who dares to act so arrogantly—claiming camps, challenging the strongest, and seizing mines in Fanggang. What do you all think about this?”
“Are you the strongest person in this city?” The man in the Zhongshan suit smiled at Lu Yu, seemingly without a trace of tension.
At this moment, the following convoy was also arriving, and everyone on the large trucks was beginning to jump off one after another.
Then the trucks moved to both sides of the road, clearing a path for the final extended container truck to drive through.
The distance between Lu Yu and the other person was no more than twenty meters.
“No!” replied Lu Yu.
“Then get lost,” the Zhongshan suit waved contemptuously. “Call out the strongest person from Fanggang, or else you’re just coming up to die.”
Zhao Ye gained some confidence standing beside Lu Yu and shouted fiercely as well: “Get lost! You’re really not good enough. If you rush forward now, you’re just asking for death.”
Bang!
Lu Yu slapped Zhao Ye, sending his mouth askew and his teeth flying in all directions.
“This is not your place to speak,” Lu Yu said in a deep voice. “One more word, and I’ll tear off your other arm.”
Zhao Ye’s face turned dark with anger, and he stood there silently.
Zhongshan suit couldn’t help but frown, his voice turning cold as he said, “Do you want to die? Daring to lay hands on my men—do you really believe I won’t tear you apart piece by piece?”
“Relying on just these two hundred of you?” Lu Yu glanced at the people behind him in Zhongshan suits, spat lightly, and said, “A bunch of trash. Do you even have the qualifications?”
Lu Yu’s words were sharp and sarcastic enough to immediately provoke all the soldiers behind the Zhongshan suit to shout.
“Do you want to die? Do you even know who you’re talking to?”
“Come on, let’s settle this one-on-one!” a man shouted, stepping forward. He waved his weapon and beckoned Lu Yu with a finger.
Lu Yu shook his head, a look of disdainful amusement on his face. “No, no, no,” he said. “You’re too weak. If you come up here, I’ll need only one hand.”
