Chapter 415 - 184: Rebels Questioning Their Existence
Liu Ming ultimately didn’t get to eat the egg-filled pancake; only Elder Ye and a few official players guarding Liu Ming had the luck.
Lu Wenwu left Wen Jiulong’s head and that legendary-level longsword behind.
To Lu Wenwu, the legendary-level weapon held some meaning, but not much.
Items of this level are traded by bartering, even if sold outside.
Using Spirit Coins to purchase it would make the transaction skyrocket.
If not for the special dungeon where one could earn some extra cash, Lu Wenwu’s gain of Spirit Coins from one trip would be only a few hundreds of thousands; no one could afford a legendary weapon Spirit Coins transaction.
Even if it were exchanged for Spirit Coins, it would be just that for Lu Wenwu.
So, he did not have any intention of trading it and directly gifted it to Liu Ming.
No matter how you look at it, it was because of him that Liu Ming got hurt.
As a friend, it was only right and proper to offer some compensation.
However, the somewhat confused Liu Ming didn’t realize the value of the sword.
Lu Wenwu didn’t elaborate to him, just said it was one of the spoils from the raid on the Resistance’s sub-base.
He believed that when Liu Ming wakes up, he would be quite shocked.
Thinking about Liu Ming’s astonished expression after learning the true level of the sword made Lu Wenwu feel joyful as he walked home, unable to prevent a smile from forming at the corners of his mouth.
Hmm... The purity increased, and now he’s solved the nest of rats hiding on the edge of the Imperial City. He felt incredibly happy now.
He should do something to celebrate.
It seems it’s been a while since he set up his stand to sell egg-filled pancakes?
Lu Wenwu took out his phone to check the time: 5:40.
Pretty good, the timing is just right.
After a little thought, he concealed his form and headed towards a familiar place.
Simultaneously, he posted in the [Brother Wu’s Dark Hungry Forces] group.
[Egg-Filled Pancake Domain God]: @everyone, I’m setting up the stand today, right now, at the usual place, usual price. Buy quickly, line up orderly.
In about a second, what was once a silent group of two thousand people suddenly erupted into a flood of messages as if spamming.
It’s hard to imagine that, at a time when the majority of people are still asleep, there are so many lurkers in the group.
The messages were so overwhelming that even Lu Wenwu’s personal terminal disguised as a phone started to lag.
These hungry wolves were almost going crazy with desire, having not eaten the Egg-Filled Pancake Domain God’s pancake for more than a year.
Even the speed of the Nether Yin Dragon Wings combined with Fleeting Shadow couldn’t match the speed of these loyal fans.
By the time Lu Wenwu arrived at the spot, the small clearing was densely and orderly packed with a phalanx of these well-behaved foodies, leaving only a space in the middle for the pancake cart.
At this moment, everyone turned their heads in unison, with eyes full of "hunger", resembling a scene from a zombie apocalypse where a group of zombies got provoked.
Facing such a scene of "wolves surrounding him", the battle-hardened Lu Wenwu remained unfazed and instead laughed heartily.
"Everyone, today there’s good news, pancakes are unlimited until 11 a.m., and there are new products available for purchase. Let us all submit to my Buddha at the Weekday Temple!"
"Awooo awooo awooo awooo!"
A cheer came from below, though it was a pack of hungry wolves.
Quickly setting up the stall, Lu Wenwu ordered Mao Mao to help with the fire, feeling that he seemed to have forgotten something.
But for a moment... he couldn’t quite remember.
It shouldn’t be anything particularly important.
After pondering for a few seconds without results, Lu Wenwu decided not to worry about it for now.
It’s six o’clock, first, let’s enjoy the pancake!
...
Meanwhile, at the Salvation Resistance Army headquarters far away in Northern Europe.
In the high-level conference room, a group of resistance leaders sat silently, the atmosphere extremely oppressive and heavy.
They had just received news that the Imperial City sub-base was under attack and currently communication with them was lost.
Judging from the extent of the Life Lamp extinguishments, things didn’t look good for that base.
Even a branch elder had fallen!
That was an S- level powerhouse, one of the few strongest people on Blue Star!
It was precisely his sacrifice that made the atmosphere in the headquarters’ conference room incredibly heavy.
But the resistance leaders weren’t entirely hopeless.
After all, not only was there another S- level branch elder skilled in spells stationed there, but also Wen Jiulong, an elder in the S level, personally overseeing it!
He could potentially ascend to S+ level at any time and become one of the peak powerhouses on Blue Star.
Just as the atmosphere was becoming increasingly tense, the conference room door opened.
A secretary with evasive eyes entered, and countless sharp gazes instantly fixed on him, the intense Qi mechanism almost forcing him to kneel on the spot.
"Elders, Elder Liu and Elder Wen’s Life Lamps have extinguished, the Divine Land Imperial City sub-base... all personnel have been wiped out."
Wiped out!
How could they be wiped out!?
The conference room exploded instantly.
A golden-haired middle-aged man, like a lion, widened his bull-like eyes and roared furiously: "How is this possible!? With such a strong defensive force at the Divine Land Imperial City, how could they be wiped out? What about the technological weapons inside the base? The long-distance single teleportation device?"
Faced with his questioning, the secretary felt his scalp tingle and forced himself to respond:
"Elder Lion King, according to the technical department, it seems the Divine Land Imperial City sub-base suffered an attack from a super-powerful individual, against whom the defensive facilities were useless."
