Chapter 446 A Call From Elizabeth

With a loud rumble and the earth trembling, the stronghold in front of them appeared to grow out of the ground, appearing quickly in front of everyone.

This stronghold was a standard-size fort. It was square-ish, with each side of the wall being four hundred meters long. The walls were about thirty meters tall, and the watchtowers at the four corners towered over the fort!

A massive iron gate was in the middle of the thick fort walls.

Everyone looked up at the towering walls and couldn’t help but sigh.

!!

“What a huge fort! It’s luxurious to have this as our base.”

“I don’t think it will be easy for just the hundred of us to fill such a large city.”

“That’s right. We will need about ten people on shift duty in the watchtower every night.”

“But with these towering walls, we’ll be much safer inside it. Even if we have to face a tide of beasts, we’ll be able to deal with it!”

Lu Yu arrived at the fort’s gate, and with a loud bang, the huge iron gate slowly rose.

Standing next to Lu Yu, Jiang Ning explained, “After the stronghold was built, it would automatically open when it detected someone was approaching. After we enter, we will officially take control over the city.”

Lu Yu nodded slightly and took the lead.

Jiang Ning followed closely behind, her long black hair dancing like the waves in the sea.

“I’m now the vice-captain of the team. I am responsible for managing everything in the stronghold and listening to your instructions. Basically, my responsibility is to ensure that we can hold the fort when you go on an expedition.”

“I know. I can tell that Jiang Lengyue is very considerate by assigning me such a capable vice-captain.”

After coming to the ancient ruins, Lu Yu wouldn’t stay in the stronghold the whole day. After all, if he wasn’t here to explore the ruins, why would he even be here?

While Lu Yu went out to explore, there had to be someone who could stabilize the overall situation.

Clearly, it was difficult for Lu Yu’s friends to do so. After all, they weren’t familiar with the upper house and couldn’t handle this group of people.

Jiang Ning would be of great help to Lu Yu.

Jiang Ning was in charge of the stronghold, just like Lin Kang was in charge of the Featherwing Club.

After Lu Yu and Jiang Ning entered, the rest of the team followed closely behind. Inside the fort, there was an empty field in the center, surrounded by many different buildings.

There was a battle command room, a living area, a dining area, a fitness area, and many others.

Lu Yu looked at everyone. “All of you can disband. You will be assigned your own room, so go and clean up your room first.”

The residential area was a row of three-story buildings, similar to an apartment building. It was simple-looking compared to the villas in the upper house.

However, it was considered luxurious to be able to stay in an apartment in such a desolate place.

After the group was dismissed, they began to choose their own rooms.

As for Lu Yu, he went to the battle command room.

The room wasn’t big, but he found a sandbox in the middle of the room. This sandbox could automatically mimic the surrounding terrain, showing a perfect copy of its surroundings!

On the left and right, there were two rooms. One was the communication room, and the other was the captain’s office.

In the communication room, wireless communication could be made with others.

Lu Yu brought Jiang Ning and Xu Yuan to the communication room while the others went to tidy up their living quarters.

After arriving at the communication room, Jiang Ning turned on the communication device and spoke into the microphone. She then heard her voice coming through the walkie-talkie hanging on her waist.

“This place is connected to everyone’s communication equipment. Anyone on an expedition can contact our headquarters at any time to ensure that no information is missed.”

Lu Yu nodded slightly. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly heard the buzzing sound of an electric current from the communication device.

The three stood rooted to the ground for a moment, and their breathing turned shallow.

“Who is this signal from?” Lu Yu asked.

“It’s definitely not someone from our group. Signaling headquarters is usually reserved for important messages that cannot be sent otherwise. It usually only serves as a final measure when you’re in danger or lost in the jungle.”

“Let’s ask the person then.”

Lu Yu stood in front of the microphone and said softly, “May I ask who this is?”

“Buzz…”

After a series of crackling sounds, a clear human voice was heard.

This voice was gentle and ethereal, making people feel as if they were bathing in the spring breeze as it relaxed their mood.

However, the words this person spoke weren’t in the language of the Freedom Federation!

Fortunately, Lu Yu had learned the Lionheart Empire’s language in school.

“Can you hear me? This is the Lionheart Empire’s stronghold.”

Lu Yu quickly replied, “Roger that. I’m the captain of Freedom Federation’s Clanorth University, upper house team. May I know who you are?”

“I am the Lionheart Empire’s captain for this expedition, Elizabeth.”

This pleasant voice was from Elizabeth, the princess of the Lionheart Empire!

“Why did you contact me?”

“Nothing much. I’d like to inform you in advance that our team has no enmity with you. If you encounter us, please do not attack.”

“That’s hard to promise. If our two teams encounter the same treasure, and we both want it, what will happen if we cannot resolve it peacefully?”

“No, if we really encounter that situation, I will let go.”

Lu Yu hesitated for a moment before asking, “Really? How can I believe you?”

“I’m the third princess of the Lionheart Empire. You can trust my words; I won’t lie to you,”

The royal family of the Lionheart Empire did not have any reason to lie to Lu Yu. After all, they were nobles who were proud of themselves and hated lowly acts; lying was absolutely unnecessary for a princess of an empire.

“Alright, since you’re willing to give us anything, what are you doing here then? Playing house?”

Lu Yu continued to ask, and his tone wasn’t polite.

Elizabeth’s voice was still gentle and sweet when she replied, “I only have one purpose in coming here, and that is to find my elder brother. He is hiding somewhere here.”

“Oh, you’re looking for someone…”

Lu Yu paused for a moment and immediately realized something was wrong with her words!

“That can’t be right. The ancient ruins only opened today, and you want to find someone inside it? Could he have already been lost here for a year?”

“No, he entered the ancient ruins with some other means. He didn’t enter today during the opening of the ancient ruins or with the teleportation portal, but he’s here inside this secret realm.”

Hearing this, Lu Yu could not help but frown. This was the first time he had heard of such a thing.

“I’m sure you won’t tell us much about the specific situation, but I understand. If we meet your team, we won’t be hostile.”

“Thank you. At the same time, I also want to request that I hope you can help me find my brother. If you meet him, please bring him back.”
