Awakening The Weakest Talent: Only I Level Up

Chapter 594 A Misunderstanding

Inside the stronghold, the battle against the beast tide had ended. The remaining soldiers cleaned up the battlefield, as the ground was full of corpses and minced meat. It took them a lot of effort to clean it up.

At that moment, Xu Mo walked in from the fortress gates. He didn't think much of it when he saw so many beasts in front of him. He quickly drew the sword on his back and charged at the beasts.

In the radio call he received, the correspondent's tone was anxious and hurried, which worried Xu Mo.

He didn't have the time to think about or look at the situation around him. Thus, he directly rushed toward the undead puppets!

He rushed toward a giant elephant, leaped into the air, and dashed to the head of the giant elephant. He stabbed down with his sword.

Whoosh!

A sharp sword aura swept away the surrounding air and slashed at the giant elephant.

Slash!

The sword aura broke the elephant's hide, broke its skull, and hit its brain.

The sharp sword struck down, and the giant elephant crashed to the ground.

The giant elephant that fell to the ground shocked the surrounding people.

"What the hell is going on? Are there more enemies?"

"Huh? Why did the elephant fall to the ground? What's happening?"

"What's going on? What's going on?"

"Didn't these beasts join our side?"

Just as everyone was confused, someone saw Xu Mo and quickly shouted, "Hey, it's that guy! He's back now!"

"Huh? Wasn't he in the special forces? Did he really only return now? What is he doing?"

"I don't know. Could it be that he treats these puppets as his enemies?"

"Tsk, this is a misunderstanding!"

On the fortress walls, Lu Yu glanced at the situation below and asked with a smile, "That's the person that's going to back you up?"

Zhao Yan pursed his lips, clearly not very confident anymore.

"Yes, witness his strength with your own eyes before you speak. It is now an internal affair of our stronghold; to put it bluntly, you're an outsider. You have no right to tell me what to do!"

By saying this, Zhao Yan had practically shed all pretenses of cordiality with Lu Yu.

Lin Shu said with confidence, "Stop being meddlesome. This is none of your business. Go back."

She didn't want to make things worse, nor did she wish to anger Lu Yu. However, her attitude only made Lu Yu even more unhappy.

"I don't think he's really a part of your faction. Although he's part of the military, he's on a special forces team, and they have a high degree of independence. Generally speaking, only the higher-ups in the military can command them."

"Someone like you might have a higher rank than him, but you can't command him."

Zhao Yan stuttered, "So... so what? He will still stand by our side, you understand?"

"Fine. I'll let you two die after you see the truth. Let him come up, and we'll make it clear!"

Lin Shu immediately panicked and said, "Are you that free? You'd better hurry back; we still have many things to deal with here."

Lu Yu raised his hand and interrupted her. "No, dealing with the two of you is the most important thing for me now. Secondly, I need to find a few powerful helpers to help me with some things."

After saying that, Lu Yu lowered his head and looked into the stronghold. Xu Mo was still swinging his long sword and killing the puppets.

Lu Yu was observing his strength, noticing that he killed these puppets quickly. Even though these ferocious beasts were weakened by half after turning into undead puppets, they were still not to be underestimated.

Lu Yu couldn't help but nod.

"This guy's strength is indeed quite decent. He isn't as strong as me, but is at least on the same level as Han Xuefei."

Lin Shu chuckled. "You just haven't seen him use all his strength."

Lu Yu glanced at her and asked, "Did you see me at my best, then?"

Lin Shu was at a loss for words.

At this moment, Han Xuefei flew up with the rest of the team and came to Lu Yu's side.

"Have these two been here the whole time?"

Wang Meng was the first to walk over with a hardened facial expression.

Lu Yu didn't answer and only nodded.

Immediately, Wang Meng exploded in anger. "You two ingrates! We're fighting the beast tide with our lives on the ground, and you two are enjoying the scenery up here?"

Wang Meng walked forward with his sword in his hand. His face was still tainted with beast blood, and Zhao Yan and Lin Shu were so scared that they retreated.

The two had been through many battles, but they were still afraid of this man, who emitted terrifying killing intent.

"You don't understand. We're contacting reinforcements from above here. The signal is good up here, so we're here. Do you think we want to stay and do nothing?" Zhao Yan retorted righteously.

"I'll fucking cut you down!" Wang Meng swung his sword and was about to rush forward.

Xu Yuan walked over and quickly stopped him. "What are you in a hurry about? Don't jump the gun if Lu Yu isn't doing anything."

"Maybe my brother was just waiting for me to come up and be the executioner!" Wang Meng retorted.

"Don't worry, I'm keeping these two alive because I want them to die with satisfaction."

"Wait a moment, and wait for the battlefield to be done cleaning. Gather all the soldiers, and I'll punish these two people in public view."

Upon hearing this, Xu Yuan nodded in agreement. "That's for the best. Otherwise, it'll be hard to verify their testament later if we kill them here."

Lu Yu looked down and saw that Xu Mo was still trying to kill the puppets around him.

He killed his enemies quickly and was focused. There were only enemies in his eyes and no other distractions.

But then he suddenly stopped and stood on the spot. He looked around and immediately realized that something was wrong.

"Wait, what's going on?"

The ferocious beasts he was battling were all standing still on the spot, like lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

The soldiers around them appeared to be cleaning up the battlefield rather than fighting.

At that moment, a soldier walked over.

"Mr. Xu, you've returned too late. Our battle is over."

Xu Mo looked at the person next to him and asked, "What's the situation? Has it already ended? Didn't the battle just start?"

"The people who came to our rescue have made their move. They are strong and ended the battle very quickly."

"What's going on? Where's your team captain? I want to see him!"

This question stumped everyone.

"Hey, did you see the captain?"

"No, I didn't see him. I didn't see him from the beginning."

"I only saw him when he spoke at the start of the beast tide. I didn't see him after that..."

"He should be in the corner of the battlefield. We should be able to find him if we call out..."

"Uh... I think he's on the fortress walls."

"It can't be. When the beast tide began, he was already on the fortress walls. Could it be..."

"He didn't come down during the battle?"
