Chapter 599 Warhorses

After seeing Xu Mo’s talent, Lu Yu was a little surprised. He didn’t expect the person next to him to be the bearer of another SSS-level talent. No wonder Zhao Yan and Lin Shu had such faith in him to defeat the beast tide.

Lu Yu would probably have a headache if he were to fight against such an outrageous talent.

“Finally, we’re out of the tunnel. Look, there’s a dense forest below.” Lu Yu pointed downwards.

“The climate inside this secret realm is very strange. It’s like a small world in itself.” Xu Mo stated calmly as he looked down the mountain.

“Let’s go. We’re not far from our target, and we should be able to reach it in half a day. I’m sure your speed is sufficient, right?”

“My speed and attack are my strongest attributes,” Xu Mo proclaimed proudly. “Of course, I can keep up.”

Lu Yu nodded slightly. With his talent, it was true that he only needed to cultivate speed and attack.

There was no point in having increased health and defense to resist a few more attacks from his enemies.

“Let’s go. Don’t waste time. The enemy will be powerful, and we must be fully prepared.”

The two continued to walk forward, and Lu Yu’s walkie-talkie suddenly rang before they could take two more steps.

“Can you hear me? This is the Lionheart Empire.”

Lu Yu and Xu Mo looked at each other.

“The Lionheart Empire. Are you close to them?” Xu Mo asked.

“Kinda. Their princess is my friend.”

“You’re good. With your face, wouldn’t it be easy for you to marry a princess and become a prince?”

“Stop it. I don’t want to go to the Lionheart Empire…”

“Heh, if I were you, I would be overjoyed for such an opportunity.”

Lu Yu raised his hand to interrupt him, then spoke into his walkie-talkie, “I can hear you. Is there anything I can help you with?”

“I’ve been trying to call you for the past two days; finally, I’ve finally gotten through.”

“The princess’s order for me is to contact you. She wants to buy some Claine Crystals to help the Lionheart Empire’s army contact the outside world.”

“I see. Let’s talk again when we have time. I’m busy now.”

“Okay. If you need anything, just tell us. We’ll prepare the goods in advance to trade with you.”

“Is there anything you want?” Lu Yu asked, looking at Xu Mo.

Xu Mo was a little overwhelmed. “We just met, and you’re going to give me something?”

“You’re right; I won’t, then.”

Lu Yu laughed heartily.

Xu Mo just pouted and didn’t say anything.

“What do you guys have?” Lu Yu asked.

“We have a lot of things here. Our princess has a lot of rare treasures that aren’t in use for the time being; there are many kinds of jewelry here that we can trade, too.”

“What’s the use of jewelry?”

“Is there anything more practical?”

The person pondered for a long time before quickly replying, “We have a new batch of equipment. Although the quality isn’t unique, we can equip your team members with them!”

“There’s no need for that. I have a lot of materials here, and I can just forge equipment if I need some.”

“Hmm… we have four idle golden warhorses here; do you need them?”

Lu Yu pondered for a moment. Although warhorses moved slowly inside here due to the terrain, they would reach the plains if they went further north. If they had a warhorse to ride on, they would be able to move much faster.

“Do you know how to ride a horse?” Lu Yu asked, looking at Xu Mo.

“If I don’t even know how to ride a horse,” Xu Mo replied helplessly, “how would I be qualified to enter the special forces?”

“Alright, I don’t know how to ride it, but it shouldn’t be difficult.”

“Hey, bring me two of your horses so I can inspect the goods.”

“Sure, wait for me. I’ll be right there!”

Lu Yu put down the walkie-talkie and said to Xu Mo, “Let’s wait here; he’ll be here soon.”

Soon, Lu Yu saw three horses passing through the withered trees at the foot of the mountain. An armored man was sitting on one of the horses in the middle.

“Let’s go down and take a look.”

Lu Yu took the lead and quickly slid down the slope of the snowy mountain.

Very quickly, Lu Yu and Xu Mo arrived before the soldier.

The soldier quickly got off his horse and bowed to Lu Yu.

“Hello, Mr. Lu Yu; I’m here.”

“What do these two horses look like?”

Xu Mo walked over and touched the horse’s face.

“This horse isn’t bad. It’s not afraid of strangers and seems obedient. It’s not the kind of horse that would be timid in battle, either.”

“As for speed, endurance, and so on, we don’t have time to test it. Let’s just ride it.” Xu Mo suggested.

The soldier revealed a joyful smile. “Great. Is this deal?”

Lu Yu nodded. “Yup, let’s do this. We’ll ride these two horses away.”

With that, Lu Yu and Xu Mo sat on the saddle.

“Mr. Lu Yu, I’ve brought the horse. What about the crystal?” the soldier asked.

“I still have use for the crystals on me. Ask my vice-captain for it.”

With that, Lu Yu shook the reins and guided the warhorse forward.

The soldier stood on the spot and looked at Lu Yu’s back. He scratched his head and was speechless.

They had made a deal, but he had to find another person to get his part. He was rendered speechless…

The soldier had no choice but to ride his horse and continue forward.

…

At that moment, Lu Yu and Xu Mo rode into the forest. The trees around them weren’t too dense, and the horses could move slowly through them.

“Isn’t it much more comfortable riding a horse?” Lu Yu asked,

Xu Mo only shrugged and didn’t reply.

Lu Yu was curious about Xu Mo. Since he was considered a moving corpse, would he still have any physical strength?

“If we go any further, we’ll reach the plain. Once we get there, we’ll be able to speed up.”

As he shook the reins again, Lu Yu stated.

“When we reach the place, leave the investigation task to me. You can just look after the rear.”

“Why? You think I can’t do it?”

“No, but the enemy might be too strong. We are risking our lives for this mission. It’s fine if I die, but it’ll be a big problem if you die.”

“Oh, really? Is my life more valuable than yours?”

Lu Yu asked with a smile.

“You don’t understand. I’m not afraid of death.” Xu Mo declared confidently.

Lu Yu shrugged and said, “I know. You can be resurrected after you die.”

Swoosh!

Xu Mo quickly turned his head and looked at Lu Yu in astonishment.

“How did you know?”

“I just do. Is there a problem?”

Xu Mo gulped. “I didn’t expect you to see through me. What the hell? Not a single person I’ve fought in the past knew about that and would always be happy with themselves for killing me!”

“Yeah, it’s too early for them to celebrate. No matter what, they had to find your crystalized body before celebrating.”

At that moment, the way Xu Mo looked at Lu Yu changed. Not only did Lu Yu know his ability, but he also knew every detail. Xu Mo was highly shocked!
