Chapter 938 Making Puppets

Bernie looked back at Lu Yu, his eyes filled with fear. He was unable to break free from the grip on his neck!

This strong clamp force made it almost impossible for him to struggle out.

He was terrified but also curious about Lu Yu's strength.

But no matter what, he recognized that he was no match for Lu Yu!

No matter how high the upper limit of Lu Yu's strength was, Bernie knew he was no match for Lu Yu, judging from the gap in strength that Lu Yu had displayed so far.

His potion was useless against Lu Yu. His staff and his skills were also useless against Lu Yu.

All of his attacks could not cause any damage to Lu Yu.

This proved that his strength was utterly inferior to Lu Yu's.

"What... What are you planning to do?"

"Didn't I make it clear? I want to kill everyone who made this potion, and you are one of them."

"Hahaha, then you'll have to fight against the higher-ups of Night Witch City. They're all top-notch cultivators, and do you think you are strong enough?"

"Stop joking around, as you're definitely incapable of your claims. If you let me go, you still have a way out."

"If you make enemies of them, then you're basically an enemy of Night Witch City!"

"Think carefully. If I die, they will investigate my death thoroughly."

"So, don't think that you can escape unscathed after killing me. It's absolutely impossible!"

Bernie gritted his teeth and threatened Lu Yu, trying to find a way to survive.

"Escape? Are you kidding me? Do you think I need to escape? If they come after me, I'll kill them all."

Bernie gulped, and his heart began to beat faster.

"Don't be too confident. Do you really think you can defeat so many of us?"

"Just don't kill me. If you kill me, it'll do you no good!"

He was drenched in cold sweat, and his body was trembling non-stop. He sensed an extremely strong killing intent coming from Lu Yu.

Under this killing intent, he could not muster up any thoughts of resistance. He could only obediently stay under Lu Yu's control.

"You'll die here as atonement for the people you killed!"

"No! You can't do this! It wasn't easy for me to get to where I am today!"

Bernie shouted in grief, his tone filled with unwillingness.

"Shirley, help me stop him! Isn't he your friend?"

Shirley looked at him with disgust. "You deserve to die!"

"Do it. I won't object. He should die here!"

Shirley's words were decisive. She now despised Bernie from the bottom of her heart!

Bernie's eyes were filled with despair, but more than that, he was reluctant about his death. He had put in a lot of effort to become stronger, and he couldn't understand why he should die here.

The next moment, Lu Yu squeezed his fingers and broke Bernie's neck.

It was even simpler than crushing a chick.

In Lu Yu's eyes, Bernie was no different from a chick.

The only person who could exchange a few blows with Lu Yu was the leader of the Mage Guild.

Lu Yu tossed Bernie's corpse to the side.

"This place is dirty. Let them out and leave. At the same time, we can expose what happened here."

Shirley nodded and walked up to the cages.

She reached out her clean, white hands and unlocked the cages.

The person curled up in the corner looked at Shirley in fear, not daring to move a step.

"You can come out now. Go back and find your family."

Shirley knew the boy had experienced some cruel things, so she patiently guided him to come out.

Under Shirley's gentle guidance, the boy slowly climbed out of the cage.

They released everyone here after that.

Helen came to Lu Yu's side and asked, "What is the Truth Department that you two were talking about?"

Her eyes widened in curiosity, as she was completely unaware of this.

As someone living on the edge of the empire, they did not know much about the Ember Empire's plans. Helen might not even know as much as Lu Yu.

Of course, she knew more about the situation in their cities than Lu Yu did.

"It's an organization that hid in our world while waiting for the Ember Empire to be revived. Then, they'll help the Ember Empire occupy our world."

"This is an organization deeply hidden in society. It has only been less than a year since we truly understood them."

"The Truth Department is closely related to the core of the Ember Empire, so it's normal that you don't know about them."

"In other words, the Truth Department is an organization under the Ember Empire?"

Lu Yu nodded. "That's right."

Lu Yu looked at Bernie's corpse on the ground beside him.

He had killed this scrum with a simple squeeze. The difference in strength between them was too massive.

If he could deal with a Rank 5 Mage so easily, he reckoned that only a Rank 10 Mage would be qualified to face him head-on.

"What should we do with his body? What if we're discovered preemptively? There are many mages in this city. If we are exposed, it will be difficult for us to stay here."

Shirley was nervous, and her eyebrows were tightly knitted together. She was getting flustered by their current situation.

"Discovered? Did you think I would hide?"

Shirley looked at Lu Yu in confusion and asked, "You want to take the initiative to strike?"

"That's right. I will be taking the initiative to strike. Why would I be afraid of them? It's just probably annoying to get all of them in one go."

Lu Yu looked at Bernie's body on the ground, walked forward, and raised his right hand.

Immediately after, his right arm transformed into his Undead Dragon Claw.

As the pitch-black dragon claw manifested, a dark green flame enveloped it.

Shirley and Helen were both amazed by Lu Yu's transformation. They were especially curious about the changes in Lu Yu's body.

They quickly recognized Lu Yu's right arm had transformed into a dragon's claw and had a rough idea that Lu Yu must have a bloodline similar to that of a dragon, which was why he could tame one.

If one had a dragon's bloodline, the dragon would feel a sense of familiarity when the person approached it. The possibility of successfully taming it would be much higher than anyone else's.

A green fireball shot out from Lu Yu's palm, engulfing Bernie's body.

The flames burned brightly on his corpse.

Helen and Shirley looked at the burning flame curiously.

"Are you destroying the evidence?"

Lu Yu shook his head. "I want to use his corpse to find the core location of the Mage Guild!"

"It's best if we have a chance to catch them all in one fell swoop!"
