Lu Fan glanced at the photo on the table and quickly walked out of the office.
At this moment, he was fully prepared.
When he came downstairs, two armored vehicles were already waiting in ambush.
Those sitting inside were all combat-type Awakened from the Qingcheng Security Department, each with a solemn expression.
"Young Master Lu Fan, are we going to make our move during the day?" The adjutant beside the car asked again.
"That's exactly what I want—daytime." Lu Fan narrowed his eyes slightly, offering no further explanation.
Li Yu had just entered Qingcheng and was planning to return to the makeshift hospital to ask Ma Yuanbai some questions.
Suddenly, two armored vehicles, resembling tanks, blocked his way.
"Whoa." Li Yu pulled the rope, and Xiao Hei immediately stopped.
Looking at this huge vehicle, which was almost as big as a tank, Li Yu was a little puzzled, but he also noticed the markings on the armored vehicle.
Since he's from Qingcheng, I don't understand why they came to stop him.
Unexpectedly, Lu Fan stepped out of the armored vehicle and asked:
"Li Yu, are you ready?"
It turned out to be Lu Fan. Li Yu then approached and examined the armored vehicle, replying:
"Are you ready? Shall we set off now?"
“Yes, let’s go now.” Lu Fan said, turning his gaze to the black horse Li Yu was riding.
"Get in the carriage. It's an hour's journey to Yan City. I'm afraid your horse won't be able to travel that far."
Li Yu glanced at Xiao Hei, who immediately raised its proud head, as if to say that the distance was no problem for it at all.
He also knew that Xiao Hei was no ordinary horse; ordinary horses don't usually eat exotic beast meat or crystal cores.
Seeing Xiao Hei's confident demeanor, Li Yu turned to Lu Fan and said:
"No need, I can get there on horseback."
"As long as you can keep up, let's go." Lu Fan did indeed vaguely sense that Xiao Hei was emanating a unique aura.
He nodded, returned to the car, and gave the order:
"Set off immediately."
The armored vehicle started up again, its engine roaring loudly, with Li Yu and Fu Xiyao riding their little black car close behind.
However, it was clear that Xiao Hei overestimated himself.
Just outside the city, after only a dozen minutes of running, Xiao Hei's speed noticeably slowed down.
Li Yu spurred the horse's belly, and Xiao Hei ran with all its might.
If you clamp it again, Little Black will run for a few more minutes.
Give him a piece of exotic beast meat, then let him run around a bit more.
As long as Li Yu doesn't urge them, the speed will immediately slow down again.
Xiao Hei is like squeezing toothpaste; it won't move at all unless you squeeze it.
The journey was intermittent, sometimes fast and sometimes slow.
But Li Yu didn't want to leave Xiao Hei behind and get in the car with Fu Xiyao. He always felt that these things were unsafe and completely out of his control.
Seeing that Li Yu was struggling to keep up with the pace of the group, the armored vehicle in front had no choice but to slow down.
After two hours of arduous travel, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, they finally arrived at the outer area of Yan City.
Lu Fan had the armored vehicle stop at the designated location early on, and did not continue to approach Yan City.
Then he forcefully slammed his black sword into the ground, a flash of black light passing over the blade.
Lu Fan pointed at the black sword: "This is the evacuation point. Once I rescue the people, I will return here immediately and evacuate right away."
He then pointed to a high point that had been artificially erected nearby.
Clearly, someone had already scouted the area and even erected scaffolding on the nearby high ground to raise the firing position.
Although this place is far from Yan City, it is within the range that Li Yu mentioned. Lu Fan's arrangement is very reasonable, and the terrain is high, so there is no problem in having a panoramic view of the entire city.
Lu Fan pointed to a high point and turned to look at Li Yu:
"Li Yu, get ready on the scaffolding. I'll personally go into Yan City to draw attention to the situation."
"Once the super-powered individual from Yan City appears, I will try my best to restrain him. You should find an opportunity to launch an attack and disrupt his actions."
As Lu Fan was speaking, he suddenly became a little worried and instructed again, "Li Yu, you must aim carefully in a moment, don't shoot me."
"Uh, probably not." Li Yu scratched his head.
Lu Fan was about to turn around when he was startled by Li Yu's words and stood there, turning back in disbelief to confirm:
"should?"
Lu Fan's voice trembled slightly. He had brought Li Yu all this way, not to shoot himself.
Even if you have many lives, you can't use them like this.
Li Yu looked somewhat embarrassed. He was very confident in his special ability, but the distance between here and Yan City was indeed quite far.
After all, he himself couldn't see the target he was aiming at, so he didn't dare to make any overly confident statements.
Li Yu cleared her throat, trying to conceal the uncertainty in her voice:
"Don't worry, Lu Fan, I'm usually pretty accurate when it comes to shooting."
"Under normal circumstances?" Lu Fan's heart tightened again.
"Well... I'll try my best."
"I'll try my best!" Lu Fan was completely unsure of himself.
If it weren't for the urgency of the operation and the priority of rescuing his father, he would have wanted to return immediately and wait until Li Yu had perfected his accuracy before coming back.
Li Yu glanced at Fu Xiyao beside her, thinking to herself, with her there, things shouldn't go wrong.
"Lu Fan, don't worry." Li Yu covered up her embarrassment with a smile.
Fu Xiyao gently tugged at Li Yu's sleeve and whispered:
"If there were a protective shield, I might not be able to sense it."
Li Yu then remembered the transparent shield that Qingcheng had used to deflect the attack earlier, and immediately asked:
"Lu Fan, does Yan City also have protective shields?"
"A protective shield? You mean the dome?" Lu Fan shook his head.
"No, the dome requires a specific awakened individual to maintain indefinitely, and it's a one-time thing."
"Besides being able to keep out the rain, the dome is basically useless, not to mention that there are super-powered individuals in Yan City."
“Then there’s no problem,” Li Yu replied.
However, Lu Fan clearly noticed Li Yu's problem.
He secretly guessed that Li Yu's special ability probably couldn't kill people through the dome.
He had initially thought the dome was a useless piece of junk, but now it seemed he would have to find someone to reactivate Qingcheng's dome once he got back.
Although Li Yu was to continue migrating westward, it was hard to guarantee that others might also possess similar abilities.
It would be better to take precautions and build a dome in Qingcheng.
Thinking of this, Lu Fan looked up at Yan City in the distance.
He was right; Yan City indeed did not have a dome, nor did any other city.
None of the cities have any plans to build a dome.
Not only are there very few awakened individuals with dome-related superpowers, but there is also a lot of blind trust in the strength of superpowered individuals.
It was only after witnessing the astonishing power of Li Yu's arrow that Lu Fan realized that super-powered individuals were not as powerful as he had imagined.
Even he, who was supposed to be immortal, died once.
But other cities obviously wouldn't believe such a bizarre thing.
Lu Fan glanced at Li Yu out of the corner of his eye. Since he was already here, he could only trust that Li Yu wouldn't shoot the wrong person.
"Operation begins."
