Chapter 269: 266 Mysterious Cave
December 15th.
For Jiangnan University, this day was the most glorious in the past decade.
Yet, no one expected that it would also become the most chaotic day for Jiangnan University.
The day was sunny and bright.
Lu Wu was still putting on airs on the stage.
Suddenly, a red-haired lady descended from the sky, scooped up Lu Wu in a ‘swoosh’, and disappeared.
This unexpected scene left everyone present utterly dumbfounded.
It also threw the open day at Jiangnan University into disarray.
The whole scene was in complete chaos.
At that moment, Zhang Wentao had no more interest in showing off and promptly asked Tie Xiong for help in the rescue.
However, Tie Xiong expressed that he was completely out of options.
“If it’s her, I can’t catch up with her, nor is it right to chase her. If she gets pushed into a corner, she might do anything.
Better let that guy handle it himself.”
Zhang Wentao didn’t understand nor wanted to listen to Tie Xiong’s words.
The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.
Regardless, he must rescue Lu Wu.
Jiangnan University now couldn’t function without Lu Wu.
One reason was that Lu Wu was the current de facto spiritual leader of Jiangnan University, and the other was because two of Jiangnan Mall’s flagship products, the “Steel Armor Wild Boar Evolution Package” and the “Snowman Doll Evolution Package,” could only be produced by Lu Wu.
Lu Wu mastered the most vital part.
After all, these two products were now the lifeblood of Jiangnan University, and naturally, Lu Wu was doing everything possible to ensure these products couldn’t be decoded by others.
Hence, not only did Lu Wu hold the most crucial part, but he also encrypted it. Safe, yes, but without Lu Wu, there was basically no way to produce these two products.
At this time, Jiangnan University simply couldn’t function without Lu Wu.
Without him, Jiangnan University, which had just turned things around, might be beaten back to its original state.
But no matter how anxious Zhang Wentao was, it was useless. The person had been kidnapped, and Tie Xiong didn’t dare to chase for fear of provoking that woman, so Old Zhang could only fret.
And Old Zhang wasn’t the only anxious one.
Or rather, the most anxious person wasn’t even Zhang Wentao.
The one most anxious about Lu Wu being kidnapped was Dudu.
At that moment, her whole demeanor changed.
The ordinarily silly Dudu turned into an angry little lioness when Lu Wu was captured.
Especially fierce!
If Jiang Yuexing, who just happened to be at the scene, hadn’t held her back, she would have chased after them already.
Dudu was restrained and couldn’t chase, but someone else took immediate action.
The one who acted was Zhang Yuechu from Jiangbei University.
Although she wasn’t present at Jiangnan University, the big news of Lu Wu’s kidnapping had spread through the intranet almost instantly, and Zhang Yuechu was one of the first to find out.
However, she didn’t chase after them for Lu Wu’s sake but for that red-haired lady.
Three months ago, it had been her who attacked her, and she had a score to settle!
…
In the dim cave,
the unconscious Lu Wu slowly woke up.
As soon as he opened his eyes, Lu Wu immediately surveyed his surroundings.
“The environment is dark and dry, the space is narrow, so it must be inside a cave. There’s no one around, where did the lady who was holding me go?”
Could she have coveted his handsomeness, whisked him away, and then ran off after having her way?
Thinking this, Lu Wu began to panic and hurriedly checked his condition.
“Clothes are neat, no signs of being undressed, no injuries on the body, no signs of being bound, and it seems Little Skeleton has followed me here.”
He seemed to be fine.
This left Lu Wu very confused.
What’s going on here?
Why had that person kidnapped him?
After kidnapping him, why not tie him up? Aren’t they afraid he will run away?
“Could it be that someone was chasing her, and she thought it was too troublesome to bring me along, so she dumped me here.
That’s unlikely, given her strength, carrying me wouldn’t be difficult.
Moreover, if there were really some reason why she had to abandon me, I wouldn’t be left so unscathed.
In addition, there are no signs of a fight nearby. It doesn’t seem like the other party abandoned me here out of necessity, but rather it seems intentional that I was placed in this particular cave.”
So, the question is, why did she kidnap him, and why throw him into this cave?
“Could it be that there’s some danger in this cave?”
Lu Wu panicked and immediately summoned Little Skeleton from his heart.
When a Summoned Beast reaches the Leader Level, Summoners automatically gain the ability to store their Summoned Beasts within their bodies, thanks to the contract.
Having utilized this ability, Little Skeleton had followed him when Lu Wu was captured.
Now, as soon as Lu Wu released Little Skeleton, it instantly became alert and summoned all its minions to take a defensive stance.
Its state changed as soon as it appeared.
Reliable (Little Skeleton will definitely protect Lu Wu!)
“Okay, I trust you, but there’s no enemy at the moment. Can you call your minions back? I’m almost being squeezed to death by them.”
The cave they were in was only about two meters wide and a little over three meters tall. Little Skeleton summoned three Steel Armor Knights, eleven Skeleton Knights, and a Skeleton Mage at once. The already cramped space was now packed full, and Lu Wu was squeezed into a corner.
It was lucky that Little Skeleton’s minions were all bony, otherwise Lu Wu might have been squeezed to suffocation by now.
Then, under Lu Wu’s command, Little Skeleton retracted most of its minions.
No longer squeezed against the wall, and with a sigh of relief, Lu Wu’s intelligence could finally return to its peak and he continued to ponder: “Whatever the reason, right now this is an opportunity for me.
Let’s see if I can escape first.”
With that, Lu Wu started moving with Little Skeleton.
They cautiously navigated forward through the cave.
As he walked, Lu Wu’s head never stopped moving, continuously swiveling.
He wasn’t being silly; rather, he was trying to ensure his gaze swept every corner around him.
After all, he was a man with a cheat.
Usually, if there was anything abnormal around, Lu Wu’s eyes could detect it.
Sure enough, after only a few steps, Lu Wu spotted something odd; a big black rat was darting towards them.
…
Name: Earth Rat (1st Evolution)
Power: Boss 1 Star
Quality: Ordinary (Silver)
Attribute: Earth
…
“A Boss Level Summoned Beast?”
Seeing the rat’s attributes and the way it charged over, Lu Wu was instantly baffled.
Were these rats always so brave?
Even a Boss 1 Star rat dared to act so hostile?
There was no need for Little Skeleton to take action; Lu Wu simply reached out with a flash of lightning and squashed the dashing big black rat dead.
To kill a Boss Level Summoned Beast with bare hands, Lu Wu had become quite a formidable expert without realizing it.
However, before Lu Wu could fully enjoy his triumph, a rustling sound rose up, and hundreds, if not thousands, of rats surged towards them…
