It had been a perfect situation, where no one had discovered him. He had not done anything too intense that destroyed his character. But the entire campsite had collapsed…
Lu Shu felt that perhaps this was fate…
Lu Xiaoyu had prepared a luxurious outdoor tent for him. She had also bought snacks for him, but they were still in the tent. He had no time to take them. He turned and ran for his life. Of course, the secret practitioners could not run as fast as him.
The secret practitioners did not expect that the Tiger Back campsite would be attacked so viciously. Many of the secret practitioners were drunk and did not realize that the flood of bronze had arrived. Some were killed even before they had pulled up their pants.This was a real war. There would be no mercy.
Lu Shu ran through the crowd. Suddenly, he shouted in English, “Retreat to Port Artyom!”
Lu Shu had understood the situation. The moment the bronze armored soldiers appeared, the secret practitioners would have no way to resist them. This would be a massacre.
Forget about the secret practitioners. The elite Practitioners from the large organizations might have a hard time as well, since the flood of bronze had the advantage of manpower.
Thus, the Tiger Back campsite was done for. It was over the moment the flood of bronze appeared. What Lu Shu wanted to do was send people running to Port Artyom. He would then hide in the crowd and run there.
Lu Shu had not gone to Port Artyom because the large organizations had already built an impregnable fortress there. He would not have information support from the Heavenly Network once he entered the fortress. His character would be destroyed if he let his guard down.
But this was a god-sent opportunity to go there. It was the best time for him to lie low in Port Artyom!But… Lu Shu recalled his tent. He did not know who pointed him out. The low, muffled voice from inside the armor sounded familiar, but he could not recall who it was.
Lu Shu could not stand this humiliation. But there were so many people in the Heavenly Network. How would he be able to find the culprit? Lu Shu was the one who had obtained the bronze armor. He had also discovered the assault troops. How could they attack him?!
Lu Shu turned around and saw the same bronze armored soldier, who had chased him, roaring, “I am Chen Zuan. Who dares to fight me!”
Lu Shu gave a cold laugh. “Ha ha.”
You are done for.
Suddenly, the mighty Chen Zuan felt a cold shiver down his spine. He softly said, “Why do I suddenly feel a bit scared…”
Cheng Qiuqiao, who was beside him, said in a low, muffled voice, “Look at the tent beneath your feet. Don’t you think that it looks like the one Lu Xiaoyu bought for Brother Shu?”
“From Chen Zuan’s distress, +999!”
“Shit.” Chen Zuan looked around and tried to find Lu Shu. No wonder he felt that there was something wrong with the young man in a hood. “What do I do? I feel panicky…”
“It’s fine. You know how Brother Shu is like, right?” Cheng Qiuqiao tried to comfort him.
“It’s precisely because I know how he’s like. That’s why I’m panicking…”
Many Heavenly Network Practitioners were curious. From then on, Chen Zuan never shouted, “I am Chen Zuan. Who dares to fight me!” It sounded very mighty. Why did he not continue saying it…
The flood of bronze started killing everyone in the campsite. Just one assault made those secret practitioners understand the massive difference in strength between them and the Heavenly Network. They were worlds apart.
In reality, many people thought that the Heavenly Network wanted to eliminate the assault troops in the forest. But they did not expect that the Heavenly Network had wanted to destroy the Tiger Back campsite from the very beginning.
The secret practitioners fled in confusion. They could not put up an effective defense for the large organizations. The members of the large organizations among the secret practitioners tried to make them go back and kill the enemy. They reasoned that they had 100 thousand people, while the Heavenly Network only had 20 thousand people.
But the moment the flood of bronze appeared, the lie that the large organizations had created fell through. The secret practitioners were of a low social class. Many of them were like Li Dian and Wang Zhe. But the problem was, Li Dian and Wang Zhe were not dumb. They would take advantage of benefits, but would leave danger to others.
An army in flight was like a landslide. Very few people would be able to attempt to save a desperate situation when they were about to lose.
Lu Shu silently followed the crowd and retreated east. There were too many secret practitioners. This meant that the Heavenly Network could not possibly kill all of them.
He made a quick calculation. 40 to 50 thousand secret practitioners out of the 100 thousand would die here. If the Heavenly Network did not continue chasing them beyond the border, then a majority of the secret practitioners would be able to escape to Port Artyom.
Lu Shu did not feel that it was a good idea for the flood of bronze to continue chasing and killing the secret practitioners. After all, there were Class A experts at the border eyeing them up. If they continued to chase the secret practitioners, they might fall into a trap.
He slowly ran towards the members of the large organizations among the secret practitioners. Lu Shu had been eyeing them for a long time.
These people were still trying to make the secret practitioners turn back and fight. Lu Shu quickly ran through the crowd. The Sparrow Shade moved along with him and pierced through the bodies of the members from the large organizations.
No one noticed how the people lying on the floor had died among the chaos.
The strands of the Sparrow Shade were very thin. So thin that blood only appeared from their mouths, noses, and wounds a long time after Lu Shu killed them.
After he finished killing people, Lu Shu disguised himself as a secret practitioner and continued to run. He was very fast, faster than most of the secret practitioners. The flood of bronze continued to kill the secret practitioners. Some of their standard long swords had snapped. They could only fight bare-handed.
The flood of bronze had not stopped for an entire day. Everyone was very tired, but victory was just right in front of them, even if it was just a temporary victory.
They did not care even if they died, as long as they killed the invaders in the Changbai Mountains!
The entire Tiger Back campsite was stained red with blood. The ground became muddy because of the blood. The secret practitioners wailed and cried as they ran. This scene made Lu Shu felt as if he was in hell. But the soldiers from hell made Lu Shu very touched.
For some reason, Lu Shu felt that he liked this scene. The air was thick with distress. It was addictive.
No. Lu Shu shook his head and continued to run.
Suddenly, someone grabbed Lu Shu’s clothes. Lu Shu turned and looked behind him. The Sparrow Shade was ready to strike.
A beautiful female secret practitioner had stopped him. She had even put on makeup. Lu Shu did not quite understand how putting on makeup would be useful in this war. But Lu Shu felt that with her looks, she would be pursued by ordinary people as well.
“You are the fastest among the secret practitioners. If you take me with you, I’ll be yours. I’m very clean. No one has touched me,” said the female secret practitioner.
