Global Dungeon: My Support Is Too Strong Webnovel - Chapter 718

718 Releasing the Tiger Back to the Mountain
On the way back, Sun Bao looked back every three steps. He was afraid that Lu Benwei would change his mind and kill him if he was not careful.

When Lu Benwei agreed to let him go, Sun Bao was stunned.

When he had escaped for five kilometers and Lu Benwei was nowhere to be seen, Sun Bao let out a long sigh of relief. Then, he laughed wildly.

“If you have the guts, stay in Jiao City. Our Pegasus Mercenary Corps will immediately flatten this place!”

…

On the other side, the city gate tower of Jiao City was filled with people. They were all the natives of the city or merchants who had come here to do business.

However, at this moment, they were all silent. They stared blankly ahead until Lu Benwei entered the city.

“This is unbelievable.”

“He killed two captains of the Pegasus Mercenary Corps and heavily injured one of them.”

“As for those small fries, they didn’t even have the chance to withstand a single move from him!”

The crowd discussed softly.

“Hongyi!”

Ji Han hurried over with a smile.

“I’ve already finished the transaction with that person.”

Lu Benwei nodded and looked around. The people who were watching Lu Benwei and Ji Han all shivered and looked away.

At this moment, Zhuo Quan and his father, Zhuo Qing, rushed over to meet Lu Benwei. For some reason, they maintained a certain distance from Lu Benwei.

“Little friend Lu, thank you for expelling the villains of the Pegasus Mercenary Corps for us.” Zhuo Quan expressed his gratitude.

Lu Benwei also nodded slightly.

At this moment, a roar came from the crowd behind Lu Benwei. “What trivial matter? You were the one who recruited the Pegasus Mercenary Corps, causing us, the citizens of Jiao City, to be bullied for several days.”

Lu Benwei grinned. He knew that he was indeed not being kind.

However, he did not think too much about it at that time. He did not know that the Pegasus Mercenary Corps would dare to do whatever they wanted in the city.

“That’s right. My man was unconvinced by the Pegasus Mercenary Corps’ misdeeds, but in the end, he was beaten up by them until he can’t get out of bed!” a middle-aged woman cried.

“It’s all Lu Hongyi’s fault.”

“City Lord, in my opinion, we should punish him!”

Lu Benwei smiled bitterly. Just as he wanted to express his apology to the residents of the city, he saw Ji Han standing out.

“Whoever hit your man, go find someone to take revenge. The bad guys did something, but you let the good guys bear the responsibility. How can there be such a logic in this world?”

As soon as she finished speaking, many residents stood up to support Lu Benwei.

“That’s right. The Pegasus Mercenary Corps has been roaming the northern region for so many years. It’s not easy for someone to stand up and enforce justice for the heavens.”

Someone in the crowd who criticized Lu Benwei said, “Haha! I just saw it with my own eyes. This Lu Hongyi let a captain go back to the mountain. The Pegasus Mercenary Corps will make a comeback. He can leave, but we’ll be the ones suffering!”

The moment he said this, the entire place was in an uproar. Even those who were standing on Lu Benwei’s side were somewhat shaken.

“What? How did this happen?”

“Isn’t this letting the tiger return to the mountain?”

“The leader of the Pegasus Mercenary Corps, Zhuang Lang. If he falls and the whole team falls, won’t we be in trouble?”

“What should we do?”

Everyone was frowning and sighing.

Zhuo Qing’s lips twitched. If the leader of the Pegasus Mercenary Corps, Zhuang Lang, led his entire team to make a comeback, it would be a disaster for the city.

“Little friend Lu, may I ask what your next plan is?” City Lord Zhuo Qing asked. He wanted to send this god away as soon as possible.

Lu Benwei pondered for a moment and said, “Head to the main camp of the Pegasus Mercenary Corps and uproot them.”

The crowd was in an uproar. Everyone opened their mouths wide and panted heavily.

“You, you want to uproot the Pegasus Mercenary Corps?” Zhuo Qing said in disbelief, his face filled with shock.

Lu Benwei nodded slightly and said in a deep voice, “If the Pegasus Mercenary Corps isn’t eliminated, the entire northern region will not be at peace.”

Once again, everyone’s hearts and spirits trembled, and they suspected that they had heard wrongly.

“Little friend Lu, there’s no need. We appreciate your kindness, but the Pegasus Mercenary Corps is full of experts, and their leader, Zhuang Lang, is a level-90 expert. If you go, I’m afraid you won’t be able to return.” A passerby from Corner City advised.

Then, someone sneered and mocked. “Go ahead. I’ll let the Pegasus Mercenary Corps eliminate you, so that you won’t cause us trouble in the future.”

“Hehe, who doesn’t know how to talk big? To uproot the Pegasus Mercenary Corps is simply dreaming!”

“Hurry up and leave, lest the Pegasus Mercenary Corps come and continue to harm us!”
“Little friend Lu, you have to think carefully. The power of the Pegasus Mercenary Corps isn’t as simple as you think,” Zhuo Qing said in disbelief.

Lu Benwei revealed his pearly white teeth. “I’ve already thought about it. I want to eliminate this army that has brought chaos to the world. Otherwise, why would I let that person go?”

Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air, shocked, and made speechless by Lu Benwei. It turned out that he had long planned to eliminate the Pegasus Mercenary Corps.

Lu Benwei continued, “I think it’s about time. If we delay any longer, we won’t be able to catch up to him. Farewell, everyone!”

After saying that, Lu Benwei left the city with Ji Han.

…

At night, the moon hung high in the sky.

The night in the Gobi Desert was exceptionally cold. Some poisonous snakes in the desert flicked their tongues wantonly, ready to kill their targets at any time.

In this desert, a red barren mountain was uprooted.

At the foot of the mountain to the north of the barren mountain, there was a huge lake that nourished an oasis. The Pegasus Mercenary Corps set up camp here.

At this moment, the camp was brightly lit. The mercenaries of the Pegasus Mercenary Corps sat around the camp and lit a bonfire. They drank wine and ate meat in large bowls.

A few groups of mercenaries were wearing heavy armor and patrolling as usual.

“Who is it?!”

One of the mercenaries noticed a whimper coming from the grass in front of the gate and immediately became alert.

When they walked in to take a look, their faces instantly turned pale. “Seventh Captain, it’s you? Who injured you like this?”

At the same time, in the camp.

The leader of the Pegasus Mercenary Corps, Zhuang Lang, sat on the main seat. He was tall and sturdy, two meters tall. His long hair was loose, and his expression was solemn.

“Has there been any news from Jiao City today?” Zhuang Lang spoke loudly.
