Chapter 1007 Street Robbery
Lu Yu picked up his phone and made a call. After a while, the other party picked up the call.
Lu Yu was a little surprised. He did not expect the call to go through. After all, it was an unfamiliar number.
But, thinking about it, it was also possible. After all, Wan Guliu only told his phone number to a few people, so those who knew his number were not ordinary people.
A familiar voice came over the phone.
"Who is it?"
It was a simple word, but Lu Yu could tell that it was the voice of Wan Guliu.
"Wan Guliu, it"s me! Lu Yu!"
"You? Why are you calling me now? Didn"t you say that you were going to infiltrate the Ember Empire to get information about them?"
Lu Yu quickly said, "I did sneak in and get rid of two of their Lord-level figures. However, there are stronger enemies in the Ember Empire. I was chased into a desperate situation and barely escaped."
Hearing this, Wan Wan Guliu immediately sucked in a breath of cold air. "There"s someone who can make you flee? You"re the man who tamed dragons. Does such a person really exist in this world?"
"Of course. Otherwise, I wouldn"t have been in a hurry to come back!"
"However, although I"ve returned to our planet, I don"t know where I am now. I have to go back to the military before reentering the ancient ruins. My Fire Spirit Dragon is still waiting for me in the ancient ruins."
Wan Guliu asked in surprise, "Did you just say that you just returned to our planet? Did you leave this place before?"
"That"s right. I was teleported to another planet. It took me a lot of effort to finally come back. It was really a narrow escape. Fortunately, I was lucky enough."
"Or rather, this is fate..."
Wan Guoliu wanted to continue asking Lu Yu what had happened, but it was more important to bring Lu Yu back.
"I"ve already located your coordinates," he said hurriedly. "Stay where you are and don"t move. I"ll send someone to bring you back immediately."
"Take a rest at the side first. It"s been hard on you. You"ve traveled so far and defeated such a powerful enemy, all for the Freedom Federation. I"ll remember this deeply in my heart."
"Alright, quickly send someone to pick me up."
"Oh right, this phone belongs to a pa.s.serby. Blacklist it in the future."
"No problem."
He hung up the phone and returned the phone to the pa.s.serby.
The pa.s.serby took the phone back in fear. He looked at Lu Yu as if he were looking at a lunatic.
The two of them had heard Lu Yu"s words clearly. Ancient ruins and giant dragons did not sound like words that an average person could say.
"Alright, there"s nothing else for you to do! Go on ahead!"
Lu Yu waved at them impatiently, then found a chair by the roadside and sat down.
On the beach, many tourists could still be seen playing happily. It was as if they were carefree and did not have to worry about anything.
Lu Yu lowered his head and looked at himself. His clothes were tattered, and blood and mud were mixed on his body. It was disgusting. Pa.s.sersby looked at Lu Yu as if they were looking at a beggar.
Lu Yu also felt it was a little dirty, but it was not easy to wash it for now. He could only wait for Wan Guliu to send someone to pick him up.
At this moment, a truck selling ice cream drove over. A window opened, and someone was selling ice cream there.
The ice cream truck attracted all the children, who came to play as soon as it appeared.
They surrounded the ice cream truck and took their pocket money to buy their favorite ice cream.
Lu Yu leaned against the back of the chair and closed his eyes to rest.
At this moment, a tender voice sounded.
"I"ll give you one."
Lu Yu opened his eyes and saw a little girl handing him an ice cream cone.
Lu Yu was stunned for a moment. "I"m not eating."
"Take it. Treat it as my treat."
She placed the ice cream cone in Lu Yu"s hand and turned to leave.
Lu Yu smiled helplessly and licked his lips casually.
At this moment, a van drove over. After it stopped by the roadside, four to five hooligans rushed out. They held sticks and rushed towards the ice cream truck.
The surrounding children were instantly frightened and fled in all directions.
The salesgirl covered her head with her hands and squatted down.
The gang leader was holding a submachine gun and aimed it at the salesperson.
"Give me all the money!"
"Otherwise, I"ll kill you!"
He shouted fiercely.
Then, the salesgirl took out all the money from the cash register.
The hooligan put all the money into the sack and then walked away.
"It looks like the hawkers here are doing well today. It"s time to ask them for some protection fees."
"Brother Long, today is a holiday. It"s the day they earn money. These fat sheep must have earned a lot!"
"If we take them all, we won"t have to worry about food and drink for the next few weeks!"
The boss, Brother Long, put the submachine gun on his waist and shouted proudly, "Stop all these peddlers! Don"t let any of them escape!"
At this moment, Brother Long walks past Lu Yu and immediately shows a disgusted expression. "Where did this beggar come from? How unlucky!"
Lu Yu stood up immediately.
Seeing this, Brother Long snarled, "Why? Do you want to have a go at me?"
He pulled out the submachine gun from his waist and aimed it at Lu Yu.
When the crowd watching from afar saw this, they could not help but worry for Lu Yu.
How could an ordinary person fight against a person with a gun?
"Return the money!"
Lu Yu said it coldly.
"Who do you think you are? How dare you order me around? Are you really not afraid of death? True, you are not afraid of death with your lousy life. If I shoot, I"m the one to worry about wasting bullets."
"But you made me very unhappy and even delayed my time. You must die!"
His underlings behind him cheered. "Boss, kill this b.a.s.t.a.r.d!"
"That"s right. Whoever dares to shout at our boss in this area will die!"
Swoosh!
The next moment, Lu Yu suddenly raised his hand and s.n.a.t.c.hed the submachine gun from the other party"s hand.
Brother Long did not react to that one bit.
When he saw the submachine gun in his hand disappear, he was dumbfounded.
"No, wait... where"s my gun?"
"Here."
Lu Yu held the submachine gun and squeezed it into a ball with one hand.
Seeing this scene, Brother Long was scared silly. Lu Yu had scrunched his gun into an iron ball. Was this the strength of a human?
The few lackeys around him were also terrified and hurriedly retreated, not daring to stand in front of Lu Yu anymore.
"Return the money now. I don"t want to say it again!"
