Chapter 445 Stronghold’s Establishment
Hundreds of people lined up neatly in the middle of the central square of the upper house, with everyone maintaining a high level of discipline by standing in a standard posture without moving.
Jiang Lengyue walked to the front of the crowd and gave a speech before they set off.
...It was impossible to see Jiang Lengyue through the crowd. But although she wasn’t tall, her aura flared powerfully. With a single glance, everyone went silent and listened to her.
“Alright, you all are about to enter the ancient ruins. This is a place full of miracles, and it’s also a place that can bring you life-changing opportunities. Remember to seize this opportunity.”
“But you all must be on your guard for this trip to the secret realm. Remember to treat this seriously and hand over any ancient relics you find. Understand?”
“Understood!” Everyone shouted in unison.
Lu Yu also nodded slightly. He knew that Clanorth University had made much progress in their research on the relics found in ancient ruins.
It was possible for ferocious beasts in ancient ruins to wake up and harm the world. They needed to study these creatures that they had never seen before.
If not, it would be difficult for them to be a match for these ferocious beasts. For example, barely anyone knew anything about the Death Spirit Dragon, with even the knowledgeable Jiang Lengyue practically clueless about it.
If she had known from the beginning that she could use the light element to fight against the dragon, she wouldn’t have had such a hard time.
Even if she were no match for the Death Spirit Dragon, she could at least use light elemental skills that restrained it, and she wouldn’t have had to exhaust all her mana from restraining the dragon from attacking the ground.
“Right, let us enter the ancient ruins one after another. Let’s go!”
As a massive teleportation portal rose behind him, Lu Yu declared. The teleportation portal was shaped like an enormous disc, standing vertically on the ground.
The glowing disc spun, and the dazzling light made everyone squint their eyes.
Gradually, the light from the teleportation portal dimmed and stabilized.
Lu Yu glanced at Jiang Lengyue. “We’ll be going in. If there are any accidents, we will send someone to contact you.”
It wasn’t an easy task to enter the ancient ruins, as opening the teleportation gate alone required several array mages above level 15 to operate it.
The teleportation portal wouldn’t last too long, no more than five minutes, which meant all one hundred needed to enter the portal within five minutes.
Fortunately, if they wanted to return, it was simple. All they needed was a teleportation scroll marked by the upper house to teleport back directly.
Thus, it would be impossible to enter again after returning.
The upper house wouldn’t go to the trouble of opening a teleportation portal just for an individual.
In other words, whoever was eliminated from the ancient ruins would lose the chance to enter the secret realm again.
Lu Yu led the team and walked toward the portal.
Looking at the huge, glowing portal in front of him, Lu Yu couldn’t help but feel nervous. He had only heard of ancient ruins and knew almost nothing about them.
Lu Yu took the lead and walked into the portal, disappearing in the light and vanishing from their view.
The team behind Lu Yu quickly followed and walked into the portal.
After a moment of dizziness, the bright lights before Lu Yu disappeared. Slowly, he could see his surroundings clearly.
He had been standing on the central white square of the upper house earlier and was now standing on a patch of wild grass.
As far as his eye could see, it was a vast, barren land.
Lu Yu looked around and was sure he was in a tropical grassland with dense jungles and snow-capped mountains in the distance.
This plain was suitable for building a stronghold, but at the same time, it was more exposed to everything else.
Setting up camp and advancing step by step wasn’t a bad idea.
As Lu Yu considered his options, the bright portal behind him blinked as his many team members walked out.
Very quickly, all one hundred members walked out and stood behind Lu Yu in a neat file.
At that moment, Jiang Ning walked over to Lu Yu’s side.
“Captain, please take a look at this formation scroll.”
Lu Yu took the scroll from her hands and opened it to look closer. The words at the beginning were “Teleportation Array Building Array Formation.”
“This is the first time I’ve seen such a formation.”
“Only a level 10 and above array mage can create this array formation. To make it into a portable scroll, you’ll need a level 15 or higher,” Jiang Ning quickly added.
“I see. In other words, if we want to set up a stronghold, we can use this scroll and immediately get a ready-made one?”
Jiang Ning nodded. “That’s right. The most important thing is to choose a place to set up our stronghold.”
“Aright. I’ll keep this first while we explore further.”
Lu Yu put away the scroll and began to walk along, with his team following closely behind.
“Captain, our stronghold wouldn’t be small. We can set up our main stronghold and slowly extend it further out into our surrounding areas.”
Lu Yu nodded. “I know. That’s why the location where we set this up is important.”
“By the way, what’s the size of this stronghold?”
Jiang Ning began explaining patiently, “It’s huge, about the size of a small city. The stronghold is contained inside a square city wall with four protruding corners, equipped with a watchtower by the city walls. The facilities inside are complete and furnished too.”
Lu Yu couldn’t help but exclaim inwardly. The person who made this scroll was indeed someone special.
“Let’s head toward that forest.”
Not far ahead, there was a large, dense, and dark green forest. Coincidentally, there was a flowing river at the side of the forest that ensured their water supply.
Being by the side of the forest meant they could obtain more resources; whether it was ferocious beasts or spiritual herbs, they could be easily found inside the forest.
Very quickly, the team began to head toward the forest.
The team walked for about half an hour, killed a few ferocious beasts, and finally came to the side of the forest near the river.
“Let’s set up a stronghold here, then we will head inside the forest. After all, we don’t know what’s in front of us.”
As he spoke, Lu Yu pumped his mana into the scroll and placed it on the ground.
Very quickly, the scroll reacted and got to work.
With the scroll as the center, it began to spread the array formation patterns in all directions. These patterns gave off a dazzling light, spreading faster and faster and taking up a larger and larger area.
Everyone moved back, giving the scroll enough room to transport the buildings over.
After the array formation lines spread out, they covered a relatively large area.
Soon, the ground trembled and rumbled, and buildings began to rise from the ground like bamboo shoots.
