Spare Me, Great Lord!

Chapter 592: The Chen Cousins

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After the man-eating lizards fell to the ground, some of them were dead while the rest were struggling to catch their last breaths. At the campsite, everyone held their breath and carefully observed the lizards, cautious about any more attacks. Yet, standing at the edge of the hole, Lu Shu seemed at ease, because he knew very well that the lizards were certainly dying.

The Heavenly Network member who was in charge of the campsite approached the lizards with his team. He let out a sigh of relief after confirming that they were unable to cause any more harm. Then, he collected the five spears and walked towards Lu Shu.

Other people immediately started to rescue the injured members, which totaled up to more than ten during the short battle earlier.

It was nobody’s fault, because no one had expected the sudden appearance of so many monsters in the campsite. Instantly defense lines and fortresses were set up around the camp and request was made to the nearest military bases for weapon assistance via satellite communication devices.

The campsite was not accessible via normal highways, which posed certain difficulties to the transportation of equipment. But it had to be done nonetheless considering the severity of the current situation.

The person in-charge had not met Lu Shu before. After he returned the five spears to Lu Shu, the latter packed them back into his Seal of Lands with a simple wave of his hand. “Any injuries in the Heavenly Network?”

“One. Two broken rib bones after being hit by a lizard,”the man replied, “I am Chen Hao. You are?”

To him, Lu Shu’s abilities that were shown just now were unfathomably strong. Those translucent aurablades were hard to be tracked, and only appeared as traces of twisted air flows in the atmosphere.

Firing hundreds of aurablades simultaneously, the man had taken down so many monstrous lizards in a split second. His power was equivalent to a Heavenly King’s.

At the very least, he must be beyond Class C.

Lu Shu glanced over at Chen Hao. “It’s a secret.”

“Oh, I see.” Chen Hao nodded. “I shall not ask further.”

Chen Hao was filled with deep veneration, as the young man in front of him turned out to be a hidden trump card in the Heavenly Network.

However, at this very moment, he heard Chen Zuan’s voice behind him. “Brother Shu! Lu Shu!”

Um...

Chen Hao was confused. I thought you said it was a secret?

“From Chen Hao’s distress, +199!”

Chen Hao turned to ask Chen Zuan, “You know him?”

“Hi cousin Hao,” Chen Zuan greeted Chen Hao. Then, he lowered his voice and whispered to Chen Hao, “This is Lu Shu, the one who helped our granduncle to ascend to Class A. Do you remember?”

Lu Shu was speechless. He had certainly not considered the possibility that these two were cousins... What a failed attempt at posturing!

It was understandable, though, that there were members of the Chen family there since Chen Baili was the team leader...

Chen Hao had long since heard of Lu Shu’s name from Chen Zuan. Although he was aware that Lu Shu was strong, he had not expected him to be so powerful.

Even an ordinary Class B might not have been able to survive the power he unleashed earlier.

Meanwhile, Jiang Feng and other students looked at the soldiers clearing up the dozens of dead lizards. They had finally realized what kind of person the student they once ridiculed actually was.

Moreover, they had even given such high compliments about Lu Shu in front of the man himself. Now, their cheeks were burning in shame...

“From Jiang Feng’s distress, +666!”

“From Li Jianren’s distress, +666!”

“From...”

“What should we do now?” Chen Hao asked Lu Shu.

Lu Shu was contemplating. He could feel the slight energy waves underneath, which meant that there were more abnormal conditions down there.

Under the current circumstances, five days after the opening of the remains, he must enter before it was too late. However, how could he ensure the safety of those at the campsite if he was gone?

The casualties could be even more devastating with another round of attack of that scale. Despite the troops’ high efficiency, it would be impossible and unrealistic to relocate the entire campsite within two days given its huge size.

Lu Shu sighed, having made up his mind. He ordered calmly, “Both of you, guard here. Make sure the defense line is strong. I’m going down.”

“You? Alone?” Chen Zuan was shocked.

Currently, it was hard to judge the depth and the formation of the cavern, which opened up in the ground like the gaping mouth of a giant monster. Furthermore, it seemed that there were other sources of ventilation underground, sending howling-like sounds from underneath.

The mentally weak would have sweaty palms with a single glimpse down there, let alone to venture down by themselves.

Even Lu Shu himself was somewhat hesitant. In any case, he had just exhausted all his aurablades in his sea of chi, which made him more vulnerable to dangers at the moment. However, it would certainly be fatal should a huge number of lizards emerge from other parts of the campsite again. He could not afford to rule out this possibility.

Actually, he was even considering the option of sneaking into the remains after clearing the dangers underground. In the worst case scenario, his close-to-Class B physical strength would allow him to make a quick escape if there was anything beyond his abilities. Then, he would come up and order for immediate evacuation, even at the cost of dispensing some resources.

“But you can’t go down alone, Lu Shu. It’s too dangerous. You don’t even know what’s down there,” Chen Zuan urged, trying to stop Lu Shu.

Lu Shu eyed him sideways. “Sure. You are going down with me.”

“From Chen Zuan’s distress, +999!”

“Aiyo,” Chen Zuan shouted suddenly, “I think there’s sand in my eyes. I’m probably going blind since my eyesight has already been quite poor! I can’t go down with you like this.”

Lu Shu looked at Chen Zuan, expressionless, while the latter was covering his eyes miserably as if it was real. Yet, Chen Zuan’s cousin was harsher. “Come. I can blow it off for you. The three of us can go down together after your eyes are fine.”

As he spoke, Chen Hao pulled Chen Zuan’s hands away from his eyes. As a Class C beginner, how could Chen Zuan resist Chen Hao, who was at the peak of Class C and nearing his completion?

Chen Hao forced open Chen Zuan’s eyelids and blew inside, but he accidentally spat phlegm onto Chen Zuan’s face...

Chen Zuan was dumbfounded.

Lu Shu mumbled, “... How freaking gross...”

Given the heavy storms, shortage of water and the many duties on his shoulders as the man in charge of the campsite, Chen Hao had been under immense stress recently. As a result, he was suffering from excessive internal heat, which led to the increased production of phlegm...

Even Chen Hao himself had not expected it... And Chen Zuan was on the brink of frustration!

“Hahaha... It was unintentional... Unintentional...” Chen Hao was embarrassed.

“Chen Hao, you are dead,” Chen Zuan roared angrily, “I’m going to tell my sister-in-law that you secretly stash away money!”

Chen Hao was anxious. “I apologize! I apologize!”

But Lu Shu did not want to wait any longer. He retrieved the Sun mirror from his Seal of Lands and leaped over the cliff without any more hesitation.

From not far away, Jiang Feng sighed as he witnessed the scene. “Lu Xiaoyu was right. We are indeed weaker than Lu Shu. So much weaker.”
