Lu City is not far.

The Cloud Water Town base has been fully integrated.

Over twenty ships have been gradually put into use.

The current use is to collect coastal resources and assist Jiang City in the final population transfer from areas and towns that have not fully evacuated.

The Fishman transport ship looks old.

But if powered up fully.

The speed is very fast.

From Jiang City to Lu City, it’s estimated to be just four hours, plus a few hours of land journey, a round trip won’t take more than a day if done quickly.

Compared to human transportation.

Fishman transport ships originate from the Spirit Realm.

From functionality to design, they are more suitable for the current environment.

It can be considered a quite safe means of transportation.

Hang Yu followed a team of the Spirit Realm Military Intelligence Bureau from Jiang City to Lu City; Xu Tianhua did not personally participate in this action. The leader of this ten-member squad is Liang Dong from the Jiang City Spirit Realm Military Intelligence Bureau.

Liang Dong expressed some embarrassment.

Hang Yu disguised himself as a regular agent of the Military Intelligence Bureau.

The famous Boss Hang of Huaxia, so low-profile among the squad, making him, a not particularly prominent middle-ranking officer, the apparent leader of the team this time.

"We are about to meet with the Celestial Net in Lu City." Liang Dong asked: "What should I do later?"

"Stay calm, you are the captain, follow normal procedures for the handover, and remember to exchange the Skill Stone I asked for," Hang Yu said. "Regarding my identity, it’s better not to disclose it easily; Old Xu should have briefed you on the precautions, right?"

Liang Dong nodded: "The situation in Lu City is worse than Jiang City; the Spirit Realm invaders have set up many secret bases in the city and even developed many traitors from within the human race, so there is a high possibility of a prison break happening later!"

This mission looks simple.

But it’s not as simple as it appears.

Lu City is one of the thirty-six central cities; as Liang Dong said, the city is seriously infiltrated and invaded. The battles between Lu City’s Celestial Net and the Spirit Realm invaders have been quite fierce.

During this process.

Lu City captured a batch of Spirit Realm people.

It’s known that these Spirit Realm individuals possess significant abilities, keeping them alive is far more valuable than killing them directly.

But the problem is.

The situation in Lu City is bad.

Two days ago, there was an attempt to break into the prison.

Although it ultimately failed, it still caused quite a sweat.

These people were caught with great effort, and each is quite strong; if they manage to escape smoothly, wouldn’t it be like letting loose wolves back into the wild? The Celestial Net higher-ups pondered and held several meetings.

They finally decided.

To send them all to Jiang City.

Detaining them in a different location would be more prudent.

The situation in Jiang City is relatively stable.

The Celestial Net, Spirit Relief Association, Military Intelligence Bureau, and civilian forces are in a balanced state; although there are occasional disturbances by Spirit Realm invaders, they haven’t caused much trouble.

Jiang City also has a dozen or so Spirit Realm prisoners.

The higher-ups in Jiang City have been trying to recruit Spirit Realm prisoners, even considering collaborating with Cyan Dragon Group’s CEO Su Yunbing, utilizing Permanent Charm to control them. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

If invaders can be turned into loyal followers.

Then it would bring tremendous benefits to the city.

The successful establishment of the Cloud Water Town base serves as the best example.

Thus, the burden Lu City reluctantly carries, Jiang City, including Xu Tianhua’s Military Intelligence Bureau, is eager to absorb it, and Jiang City won’t take it for free; they’ll lend Lu City a small favor in the process.

Undoubtedly.

Lu City has many traitors nowadays.

It’s difficult to keep the news of prisoners being secretly transported.

Upon learning that the agent team sent by Jiang City isn’t particularly strong, the possibility of Spirit Realm invading forces ambushing halfway is high.

Xu Tianhua deliberately did not come.

He secretly embedded Hang Yu in the team.

What plan is he plotting? It is clear as day.

The Jiang City team arrived at a Celestial Net suburban outpost in Lu City.

Hundreds of Celestial Net elites are stationed here, and Deputy Team Leader Fang Jingshan personally welcomed them.

Liang Dong saluted: "Liang Dong, advanced agent of the Jiang City Spirit Realm Military Intelligence Bureau, ordered by Director Xu Tianhua to come and assist, these are our documents!"

Fang Jingshan took the documents and glanced casually, his attention focused on the ten team members behind Liang Dong; he knew that the so-called strongest civilian master in Huaxia, Boss Hang, was hidden among them.

Truly at his wit’s end!

The damage from the recent prison break attempt was too great.

Lu City has been worn out by the Spirit Realm invaders.

There is already a manpower shortage, and guarding these captives is inevitably overwhelming, so they might as well do Jiang City a favor, most importantly, taking advantage of Boss Hang’s quick blade.

Have those bastards received the news?

Surely they must have!

Considering their nature, they are likely already lurking, observing in the shadows; they’ll never miss an opportunity if they find one.

In the Spirit Realm, Hang Yu always wears mask Equipment.

His true face has never been exposed.

Who would have thought that the bold, charismatic Boss Hang would appear in such a place?

Hmph, just to make them unexpected!

Lu City has gone all out this time, prepared an iron board, and it’s even spiked; let’s see if anyone has the courage to kick it!

Fang Jingshan waved his hand: "Bring them up!"

A group of weak, downtrodden captives was brought up.

Hang Yu counted them, fourteen in total; their Equipment had been stripped off, they appeared to have starved for many days, in a weakened state, and were sealed, unable to exert Strength.

They belong to different races.

Several High-level Goblins, Dark Elves, and Demons seemed to be together, additionally some High-level Tree Men, Half Deer People, and Flower Demon Race.

Fang Jingshan said: "Be careful, they are far more dangerous than they appear; if they regain their abilities and get their Equipment back, each would be as strong as a Minor Lord in the usual Spirit Realm."

Liang Dong said: "We will ensure they are safely transported to Jiang City."

Fang Jingshan ordered: "Bai Xuan, you personally lead the team and escort the captives together with Jiang City’s team."

"Yes!"

A young woman walked out.

She looked not too tall, rather youthful; she was very pretty and cute, just like a lovely female college student, but surely not that simple.

The Leather Armor on her body emitted green Spiritual Energy, she wielded a Longbow of Bright Green Quality; from head to toe, there were very few White Equipment, which clearly indicated that this woman was quite formidable.

Fang Jingshan briefly introduced: "Though young, Bai Xuan is very strong, recently promoted to the fifth squad leader of Lu City’s Celestial Net; the nearby area is unstable, she will lead ten elites to assist."

The facade must be complete.

Cannot send too many or overly strong personnel.

Of course, can’t send none, or it would raise suspicion.

Bai Xuan is the youngest squad leader in Lu City; she achieved her position through strength, she can well attract attention, allowing Boss Hang’s sharp blade to perform better.

Liang Dong certainly hasn’t forgotten Hang Yu’s instructions.

He exchanged Skill Stones with Fang Jingshan.

Eighty Blue Crystals.

Exchanged for Expert Medicine Refining Skill.

A very practical price!

Nowadays, even a Blue Skill Stone at an auction can easily fetch over a hundred Blue Crystals, if big names compete, hitting over two hundred isn’t exaggerated.

Hang Yu was very pleased.

Really saved a lot of money!

Hopefully, someone will really come to attempt a prison break, otherwise, taking a big advantage and returning with the captives to Jiang City would somewhat bother him, as if owing a favor to Lu City’s Celestial Net.

A total of five modified vehicles were prepared.

Ten Celestial Net team members drove the first two vehicles.

Nine Spirit Realm Military Intelligence Bureau agents drove the last two.

The fourteen captives were stuffed into the middle modified off-road truck.

Liang Dong and Bai Xuan stayed in the cabin, responsible for closely monitoring the captives, as for the driver of the truck, it was none other than Hang Yu.

These vehicles were all modified.

Most materials were replaced with Spirit Realm materials or Enchantment Enhancement Spiritual Energy materials, even the fuel used in the engines was the more advanced and energetic Slime Burning Liquid.

Compared to the automobiles of the old era.

These vehicles look quite rough, with a certain steampunk style, but their rugged appearance should not be underestimated; each is incredibly durable and can adapt to extremely rugged roads.

The convoy officially set off.

Fang Jingshan prayed in his heart: "Hope everything goes smoothly!"
