Chapter 531 The Stronghold Of The Royal Family
Lu Yu’s deal with Princess Elizabeth was the simplest form of trade.
Money wasn’t of much use to Lu Yu, and in this secret realm, Lu Yu had no place to use money.
In this broken world, where there wasn’t even a normal society, money was just an illusion.
“Do you have the equipnt I need?” Lu Yu asked.
What Lu Yu wanted was a set of equipnt that was convenient and wouldn’t affect his movent too much.
Although his original armor had good defensive attributes, it made an impact on Lu Yu’s movents.
Moreover, armor was cumberso and inconvenient for Lu Yu.
With Lu Yu’s attributes, armor and equipnt could no longer provide much of an attribute increase. He might as well wear a set of comfortable equipnt.
Elizabeth cupped her chin and pondered for a mont before saying, “I have such equipnt, but I didn’t bring it with . If you want it, co back with to our stronghold.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Yu turned back to look at Xu Yuan and the others and asked, “Do you guys want to go over and take a look?”
“Let’s go. We’re all friends now anyway.” Wang ng chuckled, showing a friendly smile.
Xu Yuan also nodded. “No problem. Let’s go and take a look, then. We’ll collaborate in the future, so it’s good to know where our friend’s base is.”
Lu Yu turned to look at Elizabeth and answered, “Let’s go. Your stronghold shouldn’t be far, right?”
Elizabeth nodded. “It’s not far, just a ten-minute trip from here.”
After saying that, she stood up and went to a small window on the wall. She tiptoed and shouted out the window, “Let’s go back,”
“Alright, Your Highness. We’ll start going back the way we ca!”
The coachman sitting in front flicked the reins and whipped the two warhorses.
Soon, the two warhorses began to turn and head back in the direction they had co from.
Lu Yu sat in his chair. Although the trip was slightly bumpy, the stability of this carriage was decent enough. Moreover, he could not feel the cold outside, and overall it was a comfortable and pleasant trip.
Su Qing stood by the window and pulled open the curtains. She looked outside and couldn’t help but sigh, “It’s all snowy outside, but I can’t feel the cold here. This carriage is amazing.”
Elizabeth smiled and explained, “This carriage is made of fire lacquer wood. It is a rare tree in the Lionheart Empire. This tree possessed the fire attribute, and its innate temperature is high.”
Su Qing imdiately revealed a curious look. “Really? You have a tree with such attributes in your place? Won’t it cause a fire?”
She sat beside Elizabeth naturally, and the two began chatting.
Xu Yuan stood beside Lu Yu. He looked at his watch and said, “Jiang Ning should be taking over the mines soon.”
“By the way, you have a large piece of Claine Crystal with you, right? How do you plan to use it?”
Lu Yu knew what he was talking about. Of the 12 crystals they had seized, 10 were ordinary Claine Crystals, and one was a large, special one. After breaking it, a teleportation gate would be created, connecting the two worlds.
This item was valuable and could help Lu Yu return to his original world.
The only problem was that the cracks created by the crystals would disappear with the passage of ti.
In other words, if Lu Yu used this crystal to return to their world, he would have a ti limit. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to co back.
They could only leave this world when the next large-scale teleportation array was activated, with several array mages working together.
“I don’t need it for the ti being. We’ll talk about it when I need to use it.”
Lu Yu said, not taking the crystal to heart.
He didn’t have anything he needed so urgently that he needed to go back to their world.
Of course, if Lu Yu returned now, it would be good to explain the information he had obtained to the military.
Lu Yu felt that waiting for another short period of ti wasn’t a big deal. After all, so many years had passed without them learning this information.
The legendary Ember Empire must have been slowly recovering and planning to take over the world all this ti.
Lu Yu rubbed his forehead and looked at Elizabeth and Su Qing, who were having a heated conversation.
Lu Yu didn’t know why, but what made him feel strange was that this Elizabeth didn’t have the high and mighty attitude of a princess. On the contrary, she was very down-to-earth. Su Qing sat beside her, and Elizabeth answered almost everything she asked.
“Sorry to interrupt, but I do have a question.”
Lu Yu quipped in.
Elizabeth reacted and looked at Lu Yu. She smiled and answered, “If there’s anything you want to ask, feel free to ask. I’ll answer everything I know.”
“I would like to ask, do you know the na—Ember Empire?”
Upon hearing these words, Xu Yuan and the others were stunned. This was the first ti they had heard of these words.
“Boss, where did you hear this na? It sounds weird, and I’ve never heard of it before.”
Wang ng was dumbfounded. Even after reading all the history books, he had never heard of this empire’s na.
Xu Yuan was also confused, as were Han Xuefei and Yun Zirou.
However, Elizabeth frowned slightly and answered with uncertainty, “I’ve heard of it before, but it’s an ancient empire. It’s so old that it’s hard to rember the specifics, and it’s as if this empire doesn’t exist at all.”
“I’ve always treated this empire as a fictional story. I’ve never taken the tales seriously.”
“Where did you hear of this empire from?”
Elizabeth asked curiously.
Lu Yu shrugged and said, “It’s nothing. I just heard it from soone from the Truth Departnt. It should be nothing.”
He casually laughed it off as he didn’t plan to reveal more for the ti being. After all, he himself had not confird the truth of the matter.
“Your Highness, we’re back.” A deep voice rang out, and the bumping ride stopped.
Lu Yu stood up, opened the door, and walked out.
Lu Yu saw they had returned to the lush green forest, with tall trees and low bushes surrounding them.
Xu Yuan and the others walked down one after another. When they saw two rows of armored guards standing around them, they couldn’t help but feel nervous.
The expressions on the guards’ faces were solemn, silencing the surrounding atmosphere.
After Lu Yu and the rest ca down, Elizabeth followed them.
“Look, that’s our base.”
Elizabeth pointed in a direction, and everyone saw a small castle.
The castle was about twenty ters tall, and six guards in tal armor stood in front of a massive iron gate.
“We ca with a group of 200 people in total. They are a regint of knights that belonged to and obeyed my orders.”
Lu Yu nodded and asked, “In other words, they are all absolutely loyal to you?”
Elizabeth walked towards the city gate. “That’s right. They will do so even if I ask them to die for .”
