Chapter 551 Missing
Lu Yu and his two teammates quickly returned to the upper house and entered the portal, teleporting to the ancient ruins.
There was a flash of light, and Lu Yu’s vision turned dark. When he reappeared, he was back in the battle command conference room.
He had returned to the ancient ruins, back to the stronghold of the upper house’s conference room.
!!
The sky had already darkened outside the window, and the night was coming.
Han Xuefei and the others walked out of the portal one after another.
The three appeared in the conference room. They looked at the teleportation gate before them, confused.
“The teleportation portal is still here. Based on the speed at which it shrank after a day, this teleportation portal should be able to last for three days. Anyone can pass through this portal at will during these three days.”
“If that’s the case, we can let some of our people go back as well, and they can travel back and forth freely.”
Xu Yuan stated as he analyzed.
Lu Yu nodded slightly and agreed with him. “Of course, since the two worlds are connected, it’s not a problem for them to go back and settle their own matters.”
“The key is that they might leak our information everywhere after they return, which will be a headache. Although they listen to our orders here, no one can guarantee they will keep their mouths shut.”
Xu Yuan shrugged his shoulders and didn’t take it to heart.
“Don’t worry; Jiang Lengyue is definitely aware of this. It’s fine even if we send them back.”
Lu Yu nodded slightly, then took out his walkie-talkie and connected it to Jiang Ning’s channel.
“Hello, Jiang Ning. Can you hear me?”
The walkie-talkie was silent for a long time, and soon, Jiang Ning’s voice sounded.
“I can hear you, Captain. You’re finally back!”
Lu Yu frowned slightly. “I’ve only left for a day. Did something happen?”
“By the way, are you in the mines? Since I can contact you, you must be in the stronghold.”
“Yes, I’m back here. There’s been an accident at the mines!”
Hearing this, Lu Yu frowned.
“What is it? Tell me in detail!”
“Right. After Wang Meng and the others stayed behind, they went to work. Wang Meng’s job was to guard the tunnel.”
“However, after an afternoon, he was nowhere to be seen. The person who went to take over the shift told me that Wang Meng was nowhere to be seen. He only saw the note he had left.”
“What’s written on the note?” Lu Yu asked quickly.
“Wang Meng said he saw a suspicious person, so he went to subdue him.”
“So what’s the result? “Is there still no news?”
“Yeah…”
“He hasn’t returned yet. I’ve sent people to look for him, but I can’t find him.”
Lu Yu’s right hand gripped the walkie-talkie tightly as he continued to ask, “Have you finished searching the surrounding area?”
“Yes, and I can’t find any trace of him at all!”
“I’ll be there as soon as possible…”
“Let’s meet at the square.”
“Alright!”
Lu Yu kept the walkie-talkie and put it in his pocket.
“Did you all hear that? Wang Meng has gone missing.”
“It’s not going to be easy to find him in the wilderness.” Xu Yuan frowned and expressed his worry.
“Who do you think it could be, regarding the person Wang Meng noticed?”
Han Xuefei asked curiously.
“No matter who that person is, we must find Wang Meng!” Lu Yu declared after some thought.
“No matter if it’s the Truth Department, the Red Heart Chamber of Commerce, or any other forces, they mustn’t take Wang Meng away!”
Lu Yu walked out of the conference room and went outside.
Xu Yuan and Han Xuefei quickly followed Lu Yu as they walked toward the square.
“I think it’s probably the people from the Truth Department. They must have already known that their mines have been occupied!”
“After all, the Truth Department has a deep influence in most places, so they’ve likely gotten the news about us taking over their stronghold!” Han Xuefei spoke up.
Lu Yu stood on the spot and pondered for a long time. In the end, he sighed helplessly.
“We shouldn’t have gone anywhere else after going to the military; we should have come back right after that.”
“Someone from the Truth Department most likely saw our public appearance.”
“The only way to return to the original world from these ancient ruins is through the Claine Crystals!”
“Once the Truth Department finds out that we’re back in our original world, they’ll know that their mines have been occupied.”
Lu Yu’s words struck right into the hearts of Xu Yuan and Han Xuefei!
Han Xuefei, in particular, suddenly realized something. “It must be because we went to my company. Many people were there, and someone must have told the Truth Department about us!”
Lu Yu nodded in agreement.
The people who met Lu Yu, besides the taxi driver, were from the Han Corporation.
Of course, he didn’t believe that someone in the military leaked the news.
“I can’t be sure. Let’s focus on finding the person first.”
Lu Yu walked toward the square after that.
At that moment, Jiang Ning was already pacing back and forth, waiting for Lu Yu.
When she saw Lu Yu, she hurriedly stood on her tiptoes and waved at him.
“Captain, you’re finally back!”
She quickly ran over.
“Wang Meng has been missing for two to three hours. We can’t contact him no matter what method we use. There’s no signal at all on his walkie-talkie!”
“We’ve already searched the area around the snowy mountains but can’t find him at all!”
Lu Yu looked at Jiang Ning and said, “Don’t worry. I’ll go and look for him. We don’t have many clues now, so I guess we have to find him by sheer numbers.”
“However, it’s already dark. It’ll be a waste of energy to look for him at night. We’ll wait until tomorrow to act.”
“Gather everyone; I want to say a few words.”
As soon as Lu Yu finished speaking, Jiang Ning picked up the walkie-talkie and connected to everyone else. “Everyone still in the stronghold, gather at the square!”
After a round of announcements, more than 30 people quickly gathered in the square.
“Line up; I want to say a few words.”
Very quickly, these people lined themselves up in an orderly manner.
Lu Yu looked at the crowd and spoke slowly, “There’s a portal in the conference room that will allow you to return to your original world, which is the upper house.”
As soon as he said this, everyone looked at each other in surprise.
“Damn, we can even do this? A portal connecting the ancient ruins to the original world isn’t normal, right?”
“Captain is just too awesome. He can even do such a thing.”
“I can’t wait to go back and take a look.”
“Doesn’t that mean I can call all my friends here to start mining?”
“A large Claine Crystal must have activated that portal. If we work hard, we’ll find a crystal of that size too!”
As the crowd murmured, Lu Yu continued, “There’s one more thing I want to remind everyone of. A certain force has targeted our mines, so be careful while mining.”
