Chapter 541 Reporting The Intelligence
After Lu Yu raised his question, Jiang Ning pondered for a long time before she spoke slowly.
"Yes, I only know the general direction of where they are. I'm afraid we won't be able to find them in a short period of time."
Hearing this, Lu Yu began to hesitate.
He urgently needed to find the army's team and report the news he had just received. Otherwise, it would be a big problem if he missed the best opportunity.
"I'm going to return to base first," Lu Yu replied immediately. "I have something important to report."
"Yes!"
On the other end of the walkie-talkie, Jiang Ning immediately became nervous and answered quickly.
Putting away the walkie-talkie, Lu Yu started to walk down the hill toward their stronghold.
Their stronghold was a circular building with many living quarters and a conference room. This was left behind by the Truth Department and had been repurposed by them.
Lu Yu quickly walked down the hill toward the conference room.
Xu Yuan and the others followed behind and couldn't help but ask.
"Brother, what should we do next? How will we find the army's team in these vast ancient ruins?" Wang Meng asked in confusion.
Xu Yuan and the others were also at a loss, not knowing what to do next.
"We do have to find the military team. It's best not to let others know about our news so far. It won't be good if it spreads and causes panic."
"If we must find the military, there are only two ways."
"Either we find the military team inside this secret realm, or we teleport out and go to the military in person."
Upon hearing this, Xu Yuan and the others immediately got worried.
"Really? Are we going to teleport out?"
"These ancient ruins are normally open for a month, but we can enter at any time with these crystals."
"Can our crystals support a round trip?"
"This is the first time we're using these crystals, so we're not sure what the effect is."
Lu Yu frowned slightly, as he wasn't confident either. He only had one large Claine Crystal that could open a portal connecting the two worlds.
However, he had no idea how long this portal would last.
If they had someone to continue observing the cracks they created, they could calculate when the teleportation portal would close.
When the teleportation portal closed, the rift would also close. Only when no one could pass through the portal would it be considered closed.
"It's alright. Let's go back. I have to bring them this news!"
Lu Yu spoke firmly and knew he had to do this.
At that moment, the conference room door was pushed open as Jiang Ning walked in.
When she saw that Lu Yu and the others were there, she got down to business.
"Captain, is there anything you need me to do?"
Lu Yu looked at her and asked, "Did you guys find a large Claine Crystal?"
Jiang Ning lowered her head slightly and thought for a moment before answering, "I'm afraid not yet, but we've already dug out some small crystals."
"The small one won't work. It needs a big crystal, as only it can create a portal."
Jiang Ning was worried and asked, "Captain, are you returning to the upper house? There's still at least half a month before the ancient ruins close!
"That's right. I'm going back. I have something important to do. I need to contact the military."
"We can contact the military through the crack created by the small crystals," Jiang Ning suggested hurriedly.
Lu Yu hesitated for a moment but still shook his head. "No, I think it's more appropriate to report it in person."
At that moment, Lu Yu picked up his pocket watch. The next moment, a light flashed, and a crystal appeared in Lu Yu's hand.
The crystal was about the size of Lu Yu's arm, but he could still hold it in his hand.
"This is the crystal. I can't open the portal here, as it needs to be done at our original stronghold."
"Following the coordinates, we can activate the crystal in our stronghold, connecting us to the upper house."
Jiang Ning quickly added, "The coordinates of the two worlds are different. Although our stronghold corresponds to the coordinates of the upper house, that doesn't mean that the distance is the same in the original world. Distances work differently in these ancient ruins."
Lu Yu nodded. "Of course, I know. The upper house is thousands of miles away from the Lionheart Empire in our original world. But here, I can reach Elizabeth's stronghold in three days."
"So, it's best if the coordinates of the place we choose don't have too big of a difference."
"The fortress stronghold we built is close enough to the upper house."
Lu Yu took out a teleportation scroll as he spoke and planned to return to their original stronghold.
He turned back to Wang Meng and the others and asked, "Are you all coming along? The stronghold here needs someone to look after it."
The few of them looked at each other and knew they needed to leave someone here. After all, if they returned together, there was nothing much they could do.
For example, Wang Meng could only follow Lu Yu after he returned and couldn't achieve anything worthwhile.
At this moment, Han Xuefei raised her hand and said, "I'm going back to see how my family is doing."
Xu Yuan also raised his hand. "I can help if we are contacting the military."
"Alright, the three of us will go back together. The other three of you will stay in the mines and help Jiang Ning with her work."
Lu Yu looked at Wang Meng, Yun Zirou, and Su Qing.
The three immediately nodded and did not say anything else.
Lu Yu looked at Xu Yuan and Han Xuefei. They looked at each other, then nodded in tacit understanding as they took out their teleportation scrolls.
The next moment, the teleportation scroll glowed, taking the three away.
When Lu Yu's figure reappeared, he was outside the upper house stronghold.
Xu Yuan and Han Xuefei followed closely behind and appeared beside him.
"Alright, let's go to the battle command room first, and then we'll open the portal there."
As he walked toward the main gates, Lu Yu said.
The teleportation gate couldn't be opened at any random place. It had to be somewhere safe.
Therefore, the battle command room was the best option.
When Lu Yu arrived at the entrance, the guards opened the gates and sent him in respectfully.
The iron gates were lifted with a rumbling sound. Lu Yu walked in and headed toward the battle command room.
Very quickly, Lu Yu and the other two entered the area where they needed to be.
Standing in the battle command room, Lu Yu picked up his pocket watch and aimed it at the huge conference table in front of him.
With a whoosh, the conference table entered Lu Yu's space pocket watch, and the room turned empty.
Then, Lu Yu took out the crystal.
"I'll start injecting energy into the crystal."
After that, Xu Yuan and Han Xuefei both nodded.
Lu Yu took a deep breath and began to inject energy into it.
Soon, cracks began to appear on the crystal.
