After spending half a month, Wu Yu finally arrived at the place where Jack's uncle Benson was.
Benson's location was closer to the capital of the Ultra Empire, in an area that had not yet been invaded by the demons.
Upon entering the city, apart from the relatively few adult men on the streets, it was quite prosperous and did not seem like a place during wartime at all.
However, Wu Yu had no interest in experiencing the local customs and culture at the moment. He casually asked around for Benson's whereabouts, and after settling Joyce in, he went to visit him alone.
"Tsk, this guy is really rolling in money. He wasn't just bragging back then." Looking at the Benson family's manor, which was much more exquisite than Violet's, Wu Yu recalled the introduction he had given him.
This is a big city, and a small village like Green Town can't compare at all. Benson was able to build a manor in such a place where every inch of land is precious. He definitely didn't rely on his lowest-ranking baron status, but on the enormous wealth he controlled.
Wu Yu remembered that Benson seemed to be associated with the Dragon Merchant Guild, and during that time, the name of the Dragon Merchant Guild was very well-known.
The impact of this war was multifaceted, directly disrupting the market and causing a huge shock to merchants; however, some were happy while others were sad.
Although everyone was losing money, the Dragon Chamber of Commerce seemed to have suffered the least losses compared to its competitors. In the absence of competitors, it became the hegemon of the continent and almost monopolized the entire market.
Those bigwigs were already overwhelmed by the war and had no energy to carry out macroeconomic control of the economy, so they could only let it dominate. It can be said that no matter where Wu Yu went, he could see the industries belonging to the Giant Dragon Chamber of Commerce.
Benson is probably doing very well now, thanks to the Dragon Merchant Guild.
"I wonder if Yifang has raised enough money to buy a boat ticket?" Wu Yu was thinking about something else, but since he had nowhere to check, he had no choice but to keep this question to himself for the time being.
Looking at the Benson family's gate, Wu Yu felt that if he went through the proper channels, he probably wouldn't be able to get in. Although Benson and Violet were relatives, they were enemies, and Wu Yu had even caused Benson to become disabled. It would be strange if the other party was willing to receive him.
"Let's infiltrate," Wu Yu thought for a moment and chose the method with a higher success rate.
So Wu Yu went around to the side, leaped over, and easily flipped over the wall.
Landing on the lawn, Wu Yu looked around and found no one there. He couldn't help but feel fortunate for himself.
However, Wu Yu still had to solve a second problem: he had no idea which room Benson was staying in.
Fine, if I can't find Benson after searching every room in the manor, I'll just wait for him at the front gate.
Without hesitation, Wu Yu, who wasn't afraid of trouble, immediately headed towards the house after formulating his plan.
But Wu Yu's car overturned after only a few minutes. Although he hadn't learned stealth, he was still seriously trying to find a spot and conduct reconnaissance. He was confident that he wouldn't be easily discovered.
However, before he had gone far, a pack of large dogs charged towards Wu Yu, barking loudly.
"Damn it, Benson even keeps a bunch of beasts to guard the house." Wu Yu was a little annoyed by the bad start and vented his resentment on the large dogs.
They were nothing more than wild beasts, not even at the first level. Wu Yu only needed to kick them to the ground with a few punches and kicks.
However, this did not solve the actual problem. When the barking of the dogs sounded, it meant that he had been exposed. Wu Yu could sense that several powerful auras were rushing towards him.
However, stealth is not considered a failure. At this point, simply using the ultimate technique of stealth can reverse the final outcome.
Q: What should I do if I'm discovered while sneaking around?
A: Just kill all the witnesses.
"Who are you? Why are you trespassing here?" The manor's guards arrived at the scene and immediately launched into a barrage of questions.
Wu Yu smiled without answering, because he didn't need to. He then struck with lightning speed, delivering a punch to each of the fleeing guards, knocking them to the ground.
Wu Yu held back and didn't kill them without reason. He estimated that these people would wake up after lying on the ground for a while, and by then Wu Yu would have already left.
Later, Wu Yu became too lazy to hide his whereabouts anymore. He would just knock someone down as soon as he saw them, which greatly improved his infiltration speed.
Benson was ultimately just a baron, so how could there be any strong people willing to guard his house? Wu Yu pushed his way through without encountering any obstacles and found Benson in a room.
Wu Yu originally had many questions for Benson. Only by understanding the details of Jack and Violet's childhood could he have a chance to figure out their relationship.
But upon seeing Benson, Wu Yu's smile vanished instantly, replaced by a fierce expression as he asked, "Who are you? You are definitely not Benson."
The man in front of him looked exactly like Benson, whom Wu Yu had seen last time, but it was precisely because of this that Wu Yu was able to conclude that the man was an imposter.
Benson is merely a second-tier superhuman; how could his appearance remain unchanged for ten years? Moreover, I clearly severed his hands and feet back then, yet Benson now has all four limbs intact.
Immortality and limb regeneration are miracles that Benson, an ordinary baron, could not possibly achieve.
Benson saw Wu Yu, the man who had dealt him such a heavy blow, but there was no resentment in his eyes. Instead, he was delighted by Wu Yu's sudden appearance. "Mr. Wu Yu, we've finally waited for you. Please allow me to inform my master that we have been looking for you for almost ten years. He will be overjoyed to see you this time."
