Chapter 316: Levels are useless?
When the Tu and Wan families destroyed the Liu family in Haicheng.
Lighthouse country.
California.
Lu family manor.
Due to the time difference, it is not yet noon in Haicheng, China, but it is almost midnight in California.
The coming of the end of the world did not seem to have much impact on this manor. Instead, the bright lights made it seem even more lively.
Everyone who comes and goes in the manor is fully armed.
From weapons to armor, the quality is at least excellent!
What's more, they patrol and guard with perfect quality weapons.
The entire manor is impregnable.
It is no exaggeration to say that if a small portion of the fighting force in the manor were deployed, it would be possible to easily wipe out an Earth-level family;
If they mobilize all their forces, a small country can be wiped off the map forever.
The Lu family has eight such manors!
But even among such a powerful group, the levels of the Lu family members are not high.
The highest one is only level 15, which is not enough to make it into the top of the level list.
The Lu family members had no doubt about this.
Because long before the end of the world, the theory that hierarchy is useless had already been widely circulated within the family.
Being on the ranking list will only expose your own coordinates and make you a target of hunting by other players.
There is no benefit.
That is why they choose to restrain themselves and kill monsters instead of absorbing Yuan Crystals after the end of the world.
Just focus on improving the quality of equipment, familiarize yourself with the effects of various props, and use existing resources to continuously expand and search for more resources.
It is precisely these steps, one after another, that have created the current glory of Tianji!
Right in the center of the brightly lit manor, there is a deliberately created quiet courtyard.
There is a wooden house in the courtyard, without any modern lighting facilities.
The only source of light came from a few old kerosene lamps and a roaring fireplace in the house.
In front of the fireplace, a middle-aged man and a young woman were playing chess.
"The master's mind doesn't seem to be on this chessboard." The woman raised her slender fingers slightly and moved the white bishop towards the black king.
"He Mu was attacked in the Secret Realm of Opportunity and nearly lost his life. Now the truth is still unknown and the hidden dangers have not been eliminated. I am really worried about his safety..."
Lu Dingkun sighed lightly and smiled slightly reluctantly.
"is it?"
The woman played with the chess piece in her hand, smiling playfully:
"The head of the family is worried about Lu Hemu's safety, but from what I can tell, he seems to be more concerned about his position as the head of the family."
Hearing this, Lu Dingkun's raised hand trembled and he accidentally knocked down the Black Queen next to the King.
The chess piece spun around and rolled right in front of the white bishop.
Looking at the other person's uncertain eyes, the woman suddenly covered her mouth and chuckled:
"Ping'er must have misperceived. When you are in the middle of a chess game, you really can't be indecisive."
"It's getting late, Ping'er is a little sleepy, please keep this chess game and play it another day."
After she finished speaking, the woman who called herself Ping'er stood up and walked out of the wooden house without waiting for Lu Dingkun to respond.
The latter was left alone, standing in front of the fireplace in a daze for a long time, his expression gradually becoming ugly.
The hidden dangers threatening Lu Hemu need to be resolved urgently!
Otherwise, he might not be able to keep his position as the head of the family firmly.
"I wonder how Lu Qianhe and his team are doing in their search. Have they found any traces of the Ghoul King?"
Lu Dingkun pondered for a moment and opened the data panel.
As a result, when you mention Cao Cao, he will appear.
As luck would have it, Lu Qianhe just happened to send me a message:
"Master, something happened in Haicheng!"
Lu Dingkun's eyelids twitched, and he thought to himself that Haicheng was within the sphere of influence of Lu Zhongxian, so what could possibly happen?
Could it be that the Ghoul King who robbed more than a hundred corpses of the Liu family has already entered the lord level?
If that's the case, the situation is a bit tricky.
But it doesn't meet the standard of "something happening".
After all, Lu Qianhe lacks experience, so it is wise not to put him in an important position.
Lu Dingkun thought so in his heart and typed a message to reply:
"Why are you so flustered! It's just that the Ghoul King has evolved. Just tell Lu Zhongxian and he'll solve it!"
"If it's nothing important, come back early! The first wave of rifts will begin at midnight tomorrow, and you don't have much time to return!"
After these two sentences, Lu Dingkun thought the matter was settled and closed the panel.
Little did I know that just a dozen seconds later, the notification sound of received messages kept beeping in my head.
"No, Patriarch, there is no Ghoul King in Haicheng, not even a single hair of him!"
"Something happened to Lu Zhongxian. Someone broke into his residence!"
"My daughter was killed, and my son was severely injured, with half of his head blown off!"
"What?!" Lu Dingkun was stunned.
Before he could ask further questions, Lu Qianhe dropped another bombshell:
"Also, the Liu family of Haicheng is gone!"
"I don't know where the local-level Wan Family and Tu Family got the news from, but it only took them less than three hours to divide up the remaining forces of the Liu Family!"
"Some of the Liu family members died or surrendered. Now the entire Haicheng is jointly controlled by the Tu family and the Wan family!"
"This..." Lu Dingkun deleted the text he had entered, looking conflicted.
The demise of the Liu family and the change of ownership of Haicheng are no big deal.
Anyway, they are all earth-level families.
With Lu Zhongxian guarding the place, no matter how much trouble they cause, they can only do so within the rules set by the Tianji Family and cannot turn the tables.
But someone sneaked into Lu Zhongxian's residence, killed his daughter, and seriously injured his son...
This was a bit unexpected.
After all, the slave dog Lu Zhongxian was able to give up the surname Zhao and join the Lu family not only because of his contribution in finding the young master of the Lu family, Lu Hemu.
The innate abilities that have not yet awakened are also an important determining factor.
Lu Zhongxian's [Sacred Heart] has four abilities.
Not only is it an integrated attacker and defender, it is also immune to magic-breaking talents.
It would be difficult to take him down unless you specifically target him.
And judging from Lu Qianhe's description, the person who killed Lu Zhongxian's children seemed to have not been caught.
Who on earth could kill someone right under Lu Zhongxian's nose and get away with it!
After thinking for a long time, Lu Dingkun sent a message asking:
"Where is Lu Zhongxian now? Ask him to contact me!"
Lu Qianhe: "He...is using his full talents and searching everywhere..."
Lu Dingkun: "Oh? The murderer is still in the city?"
Lu Qianhe: "I don't know, but Lu Zhongxian said that if he can't find it, he will go directly to the Lin family in Yongcheng to ask for an explanation."
Lu Dingkun raised his eyebrows and said, "Lin family? I've never heard of this earth-level family... Was it their people who killed Lu Zhongxian's daughter?"
"It's a human-level family." Lu Qianhe added in time:
"According to Lu Zhongxian, it was their people who did it. And the previous assassination of Young Master Lu Hemu in the Secret Realm of Opportunity was also done by that person."
"what?!"
Lu Dingkun sat up from his chair with a jerk, and the small coffee table in front of him shook violently, and the chess pieces on the chessboard rolled to the ground with a crackling sound.
"who is it?!"
After a moment, Lu Qianhe's reply came from the chat box:
"The current number one on the ranking list is Lu Li."
