The ultimate Valkyrie has fallen for me

"How many times has this happened?"

Upon seeing Lu Yuan return, Xia Banzhu asked him a question.

"This is the eighth time this week!"

Lu Yuan covered his face with a gloomy expression and gritted his teeth as he said something.

"Eight times..."

It seems like it's only Tuesday. Xia Banzhu's face couldn't help but darken.

Clearly, the opponent has changed tactics.

They had previously dispatched highly skilled individuals, but no matter how skilled they were, they all died at Lu Yuan's hands once they entered the mining area.

Even for the seven major martial arts groups, cultivating such a master would require a considerable amount of resources, which would be quite painful.

But starting this week, they've been sending out minor characters.

Entering the mine means certain death anyway; there's not much difference between experts and lowly henchmen. The key is, there are plenty of lowly henchmen; they wouldn't care if hundreds died, let alone a few.

As for how the underlings were able to enter the mining farm, it's actually not difficult to enter the farm; all you need is a pass.

They already knew this.

So they sent skilled people to get the passes, but after they got them, they handed them over to some low-level thugs to infiltrate the mine.

Whether it's sabotage or intelligence gathering, even a lowly henchman can handle the job once inside the mine.

This put Lu Yuan in trouble.

As soon as the alarm sounds, he has to rush to the mine.

Eight trips in two days! Even walking the dog isn't that frequent!

"Or we could send Lei Tieming over there."

After a moment's thought, Xia Banzhu made a suggestion.

According to the agreement with the Shen family, Lu Yuan was mainly responsible for the security of the mine. After the mine was on track, Gu Qingsong and his men withdrew, and the Shen family only symbolically left behind a junior general.

Lei Tieming is a mid-level warrior, and together with the junior warriors from the Shen family, they should have no problem dealing with some small fry.

This way, Lu Yuan can be freed up, since as the person in charge of the base, he can't possibly go to the mine every day.

"no."

Lu Yuan hesitated for a moment, then shook his head.

"We can't be sure. They only send minor characters each time. If they send a master one time, Lei Tieming will be in danger."

"Lei Tieming is at least a mid-level warrior. Taking him down won't be easy. If he can't handle it, he can send you a message, and you can deal with him then."

"It still won't work. The mine is a maze of interconnected tunnels, and the situation is complicated. Lei Tieming may not be able to pinpoint the target location immediately. The longer we delay, the more dangerous the mine becomes. If it gets blown up, it will delay the project and cost us a lot of money."

"That is indeed a problem."

Xia Banzhu frowned slightly, but also nodded slightly.

The mine was destroyed, but it can be rebuilt. However, mining cannot be carried out during the reconstruction period. Without mining, there is no money to be made, and Lu Yuan and his group will have no resource supply.

The base is currently in a period of rapid development, so how can it suddenly stop construction?

Moreover, although Lu Yuan's goal is not limited to this year, everyone has a goal in mind: to make something of themselves within a year!

Only then can Lu Yuanfeng return to Chongming Base City in glory.

"Otherwise, Lei Tieming and I can go to the mine together. It's safer for the two of us to go."

"No, even if I'm walked like a dog, you can't leave the base."

Lu Yuan quickly waved his hand, his attitude becoming even more resolute.

Xia Banzhu is now the head steward of the base, and he is needed to coordinate and manage all aspects. If he leaves, the place will definitely fall into chaos.

We have to come up with a solution.

"Don't worry, I already have a plan."

"What idea?"

"Damn it, an eye for an eye!"

Lu Yuan gritted his teeth, his gaze suddenly turning gloomy.

An hour later, the sun set.

There were no stars or moon tonight; the pitch-black night completely enveloped the wilderness.

The wilderness is the domain of monsters, and the wilderness at night is their absolute territory.

Even if humans establish settlements in the wilderness, they will remain inside once night falls, not daring to venture out.

"Hmph, kid surnamed Lu, let's see how long you can hold out."

Inside the base of the Extreme Martial Arts Academy, Suo Mo, the person in charge, looked at the chat messages and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

In the past two days, the six families have taken turns sending eight groups of people to harass the Shen family's mine.

Although they were all taken down, they managed to send back some images and other information. At this rate, they'll eventually be able to fully understand the situation at the mine.

Once we understand the situation, we can develop a targeted plan and seize the opportunity!

Moreover, by constantly harassing Lu Yuan's side with this sparrow tactic, Lu Yuan's side will be exhausted and unable to defend when the attack is actually launched.

"Damn it, no wonder it's that old bastard Pei Xuan, he's really cunning."

Thinking of this, Suo Mo smiled again.

Although the attacks over the past two days were initiated by the six families, the Starry Sky Club did not participate due to its relationship with the Shen family. However, the idea came from Pei Xuan, the Starry Sky Club's representative in the Northern Wilderness.

Pei Xuan has been operating these outposts outside the city for several years, and he has been dealing with these people for just as long. They all know each other well, and Pei Xuan is known for his insidious and ruthless methods.

I never expected that they would be so insidious when dealing with their own people.

Yes, everyone knows that the Starry Sky Club is currently embroiled in internal strife.

Pei Xuan is a man of Dugu Chongxiao, and is an adversary of the Shen family. In fact, compared to the other six, it is Pei Xuan who wants to destroy the mine the most.

It was Pei Xuan who revealed a great deal about the Shen family mine and Lu Yuan to them.

"It's all because of our own people. The Shen family and this kid surnamed Lu are really something..."

Boom!

Just as I was feeling happy, a loud bang suddenly rang out, accompanied by a violent shaking.

"What's going on!"

Somoteng stood up abruptly, shouted, and walked out.

As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw my assistant rushing over.

"Boss! Enemy attack!"

"Damn it, which monster has gone berserk again, daring to attack our Extreme Martial Arts Academy's base!"

"It's not a monster."

The assistant pushed up his glasses, his expression serious.

"He is a martial artist."

"A martial artist? Damn it, which bastard came looking for trouble!"

"I don't know, but I have a feeling they don't have good intentions."

Boom! Boom!

As they were speaking, several more loud explosions rang out.

Suo Mo's face darkened. Without saying a word, he rushed out.

To the north of the base, flames soared into the sky. Not only were seven or eight buildings destroyed, but the massive fire, like giant pythons, was surging toward them.

"Holy crap! Did they just drop a bunch of Molotov cocktails?!"

Somo cursed angrily and rushed over.

At this point, the entire base had been alerted, and people poured out, including the stationed troops.

As their means of establishing themselves in the wilderness, this thousand-strong army is capable of contending with a Grandmaster-level expert!

"Don't let him get away!"

Just as I reached the north, I saw a figure in mid-air throwing huge fireballs down below.

Somo gritted his teeth and roared, about to step forward.

But the next moment, the figure suddenly turned into a blinding red light and disappeared into the vast night.

"They ran away?"

Somo frowned, looking at the red that had not yet completely dissipated in the distance, and his brows furrowed again.

This technique is somewhat similar to Blood Shadow Escape.

"Boss!"

Just then, the assistant ran over, holding a tablet in his hand.

The screen showed the base's surveillance footage, depicting the situation when the man first arrived. He transformed into a red light, broke through the firepower blockade, and stormed into the base.

Without the slightest hesitation, he stopped and immediately attacked, setting the fire.

The first flame was specially arranged to form four large characters.

"An eye for an eye!"

The impact was paused, and seeing the blinding flame characters in the air, Somo's face grew even more gloomy.
