Chapter 595 Passing Judgment
In the stronghold, the soldiers gathered together to discuss their team captain's whereabouts.
"Have any of you seen the captain?"
"I didn't..."
"Not me..."
"He doesn't seem to be here..."
"I guess... He's probably still on the fortress walls..."
These words instantly infuriated Xu Mo.
"That guy has been staying on the fortress walls all this time?"
"Alright, let me go find him and see what the situation is like!"
He looked up at the fortress walls and saw Lu Yu and the others standing at the edge.
Swoosh!
The next moment, his figure flashed, and he appeared halfway up the fortress walls.
His figure flashed again and teleported onto the fortress walls; he walked up toward Lu Yu.
He sized up Lu Yu and the people behind him. When his gaze landed on Zhao Yan and Lin Shu, he was even more enraged.
These two people appeared to be clean and had calm breathing. They didn't look like they had just participated in a battle.
"Who are you all?"
Xu Mo walked over and asked Lu Yu.
At that moment, Xu Yuan stepped forward and showed his ID to Xu Mo.
"I'm from HQ. I came here with the upper house's team, and this is Lu Yu."
"You... I know him..."
After Lu Yu's few battles, he was well-known. It was normal for others to know about him.
"Sorry, I've been cultivating all this time and rarely pay attention to the outside world. However, I've heard of the name Lu Yu recently."
"You must have seen his accomplishments in the news by chance," Xu Yuan said, smiling.
"I've already said that I don't pay attention to the outside world," Xu Mo continued with a cold face. "I definitely didn't see Lu Yu on the news."
"As for where I saw it, I have temporarily forgotten..."
With that, Xu Mo extended his hand to Lu Yu. "Hello."
Lu Yu shook his hand, and Xu Mo's palm was unusually cold, much to Lu Yu's surprise.
"You're from some special forces unit, right? I have a rough understanding of them, and these two want you to help them out of a tight spot."
Zhao Yan immediately stood up and walked toward Xu Mo. "Oh, my fighter. This guy wants to put us on trial, and he's not even a military member! This is an unfair act of revenge, and the military must punish him!"
Xu Mo shook off his hands and said, "Have you been up here the whole time?"
Zhao Yan hesitated for a moment. After looking into Lu Yu's eyes, he obediently admitted, "That's right, I stayed here. But I had to stay here to contact you."
"You have to believe me. Do you think that I, Zhao Yan, fear fighting?"
"Of course, you aren't afraid," Xu Mo answered nonchalantly. "After all, the beasts you fought in the past were weak."
Zhao Yan was at a loss for words, as it was true. He didn't dare to fight in this battle because the beast tide was massive this time, and their strength was formidable.
There was even a period of time when he only felt despair.
"No matter what, this guy must be lynched. We can't let him succeed in his act of revenge. Otherwise, where will the dignity of the military be?"
Xu Mo nodded slowly. "That's true. After all, this is the military's personal matter. If outsiders interfere, the military will lose its might."
When Zhao Yan heard this, he immediately laughed.
"Did you hear that? You're challenging the military's pride!"
Xu Yuan immediately retorted. "Lu Yu is not a member of the military now, but he will be in the future. He has already been awarded a captain's medal. As long as he joins the military, he will be promoted to captain immediately!"
Xu Mo's eyes widened, and he exclaimed in surprise, "Is this for real? This is something that can only be done by breaking all the rules of the military, and only the highest-ranking commander can grant such a privilege!"
Xu Yuan nodded silently. "That's right. It's exactly as you said. I can guarantee it with my life."
The way Xu Mo looked at Lu Yu changed.
He knew what this meant. If it were true, then his strength wouldn't be a match for the person in front of him.
"I'm not here to ask for your opinion; these two will die today. As for how they will die, I'm still thinking about it."
Lu Yu spoke up rudely.
His sharp tone choked Xu Mo, but he held it in. "Do what you want then. I won't care anymore."
After he finished speaking, he glanced at the situation in the stronghold. Clearly, those undead beast puppets were created by Lu Yu.
At that moment, Zhao Yan and Lin Shu started panicking. They hurriedly exclaimed, "Wait! This person is challenging our rules. We can't let this go!"
"Xu Mo, you can't just sit back and do nothing," Lin Shu pleaded emotionally. "How can we let an outsider do whatever he wants in our territory?"
Xu Mo stood where he was with his hands in his pockets, not saying a word.
Instantly, Zhao Yan and Lin Shu were hit by a wave of despair.
"Alright, push the two down to the public square!"
After Lu Yu finished speaking, Wang Meng immediately walked behind Zhao Yan and Lin Shu and gave each of them a kick.
The two didn't dare to resist at all. They were kicked to the side of the fortress walls and fell.
However, the fortress walls weren't very high, so the two landed smoothly without any injuries.
After that, Lu Yu and the others also jumped down.
Lu Yu and the others stood at the foot of the fortress walls. Zhao Yan and Lin Shu were extremely nervous and didn't dare to do anything.
When the soldiers saw them landing, they stopped their work and surrounded them.
"Everyone, come here. We have something to say!" Xu Yuan announced loudly, and the surrounding soldiers quickly gathered around.
A crowd gathered around them.
"What's this? What are they trying to do?"
"What is our captain doing here? There's also the vice-captain; finally, we've found them."
"We haven't finished cleaning up the battlefield. Did something happen?"
The crowd was full of questions. They were all curious about what this was about.
"You should all be curious as to why you didn't see these two when we were fighting." Lu Yu stated.
Immediately, the crowd began to murmur.
"Yeah, I didn't see them. That's strange."
"What's the situation? Is there a problem?"
"Shit, look at our captain's clean clothes. Did he not participate in the battle?"
"That's true. It's impossible that the first thing he did after a battle was to find a place to change his clothes, right?"
"What? Is this for real?"
The soldiers were surprised that Zhao Yan did nothing as he watched them fight.
"These two sat on the fortress walls during the battle against the beast tide. They watched you fight to the death down there."
After Lu Yu finished speaking, the soldiers were furious.
"What? They did such a thing?"
"That's just treating us like pawns!"
"How shameless! He's so selfish!"
"Such despicable leaders! We gave you the team leader position, so how could you do such a thing?"
"Next, these two will atone for their sins with their deaths!" Lu Yu pointed at the two captains.
