Global Dungeon: My Support Is Too Strong

726 Undercurrent

For the next few days, Jiao City became the center of public opinion in the northern wilderness.

Many people came to meet Lu Hongyi, who had eliminated the Pegasus Mercenary Corps.

However, what no one knew was that an undercurrent was surging in Jiao City.

On a moonlit night, a cold wind blew in the desert.

The windows of the inn room reflected the shadows of the trees.

Lu Benwei sat cross-legged on the bed, absorbing the power of the stars at night. A thin layer of black mist enveloped his body, and the dark bloodline flowed in his body, achieving a double the effect with half the effort.

“Buzz!”

Lu Benwei suddenly opened his eyes, and the light in his eyes was incomparably bright.

Then, it quickly dimmed and said to himself, “Still not working?”

He had been stuck at level 69 for a long time, unable to break through to level 70.

‘What’s going on?’ Lu Benwei thought to himself.

Every time he felt that he was about to reach a bottleneck, he was just one step away from breaking through.

However, once he calmed down and focused on cultivation, the feeling of breaking through disappeared.

Lu Benwei thought for a long time, but he could not understand. He tried again and again.

“I don’t believe that I can’t cross the threshold of 69!”

“Bang!”

Lu Benwei’s heart was about to explode, beating like a war drum. He circulated his dual bloodlines, and the power of the stars poured into his body. His body was covered in a layer of clear light.

“Dong! Dong! Boom!”

…

The beating of his heart was as dense as the sound of drums. All the guests in the inn were attracted by this noise.

“Who is breaking through?”

“It triggered a phenomenon. This is at the level of a king, right?”

Soon, they found that the noise came from Lu Benwei’s room.

“What is the background of this kid?”

“The commotion caused by the breakthrough is so big?”

In Lu Benwei’s room, there were times when light blazed, like stars evolving.

Occasionally, there would be a rumbling sound as a huge mountain rose from the ground. It was deafening and lasted for a long time.

Further back, there was the sound of raging waves. The raging waves hit the shore and rocks pierced through the air.

Everyone was shocked and their jaws dropped.

“What a terrifying commotion!”

“If I didn’t know about little friend Lu’s level beforehand, I’d have thought that he was breaking through to the king tier.”

After a while, the commotion in Lu Benwei’s room stopped, and a helpless sigh came.

The crowd outside looked at each other in dismay.

Ji Han opened Lu Benwei’s door and asked with concern, “What’s wrong?”

At this moment, Lu Benwei’s upper body was naked, and bean-sized sweat adhered to his wheat-colored skin. At the same time, the entire room was filled with mist.

Lu Benwei raised his head and said indifferently, “It’s nothing. Sorry for disturbing everyone’s rest.”

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief. “It’s alright. Little friend Lu is too polite.”

Suddenly, Lu Benwei’s eyes flashed with a cold light, and a cold killing intent erupted.

“Chi!”

A cold arrow shot in from the window, emitting terrifying killing intent. Someone fainted on the spot.

Lu Benwei was furious. He put his palms together and stretched forward.

“Clang!”

An extremely holy shield blocked in the middle and collided with the cold arrow, creating dazzling sparks.

“Kacha!”

The cold arrow pierced through the Holy Light Shield and shot toward Lu Benwei. At the same time, the cold arrow shot out a vertical line toward Lu Benwei’s forehead.

“Mental attack?”

Lu Benwei sneered as a vertical pupil appeared in his eyes.

“Flying Snake’s Divine Might!”

Bronze divine light bloomed and collided with the vertical line. The space was shaken until ripples appeared. Some of them were so shocked that they spat out blood and lost their minds.

Lu Benwei snorted and took out the Ancient Sword of Clarity.

“Clang!”

A cold light drew a half-moon arc and blocked the cold arrow.

Without any explanation, Lu Benwei jumped out of the window and soared into the sky.

Under the moonlit night sky, the lights were dim. There was no suspicious figure in the entire Jiao City.

Lu Benwei’s expression was cold as he activated his Eye of Insight and scanned around the city. There was still no suspicious person. Thus, he returned to the inn helplessly.

At this moment, the inn was in a mess. Many people were affected, and blood flowed out of their ears.

“I’ll pay for these people’s medical expenses.”

Lu Benwei sighed and took out two gold bars from his storage ring. This was what he had plundered from the basement of the Pegasus Mercenary Corps.

The other party was here for Lu Benwei. These passersby were innocent, so he took care of their medical expenses.

“Brother Lu is really kind.”

The innkeeper flattered.

At this moment, Ji Han hurried downstairs with an anxious expression.

“How are you? Are you injured?”

“No, I’m not.” Lu Benwei shook his head.

“Who’s the other party?” Ji Han asked again.

“I don’t know, but he’s very strong.” As he spoke, Lu Benwei took out the arrow.

Ji Han focused her eyes and saw that the arrow was no different from an ordinary arrow. The arrowhead had a faint metallic luster.

The only difference was the arrow. The tail, which should have been a feather, was replaced by a piece of transparent leather.

“The opponent is able to add a mental attack to the arrow. He must be at least level 80!” Ji Han said in a deep voice.

As soon as she finished speaking, the patrol officers of Jiao City arrived.

The leader of the constables was a burly man with an unshaven beard. He was two meters tall, with a strong back and a stocky waist. His breathing was very heavy.

“Who’s Lu Hongyi?” The chief inspector’s voice was muffled, but it was very loud.

“Me!” Lu Benwei stood up.

The chief inspector looked down at the crowd and finally saw Lu Benwei.

Then he put on a smiling face. “So, it’s you. You’re really a good-looking talent.”

“Sir, is there something you need?” Lu Benwei asked.

“It’s just a routine interrogation. Don’t be nervous.”

Lu Benwei nodded and pulled out a stool to sit down. The chief inspector also sat down and asked some conventional questions.

“It seems like it’s only targeted at you. But don’t worry, we’ll get to the bottom of it!” the chief inspector told Lu Benwei sternly.

Then, he stared at the arrow in Lu Benwei’s hand. “Was this the arrow that attacked you?”

Lu Benwei nodded. “Yes, it has been added with mental power attacks. You must be careful when searching for the culprit.”

“Alright.” The chief inspector thanked Lu Benwei for his reminder and changed the topic.

“However, since this arrow is a murder weapon, we have to bring it back for further examination.”

Lu Benwei did not refuse as this was also the rule of the police.

He handed the arrow to the chief inspector, and the other party revealed a simple and honest smile. “Alright, I won’t disturb you anymore.”

Just as he reached the door, he turned around and said, “By the way, my young friend Lu, my name is Xiong Hu. You can just call me Brother Xiong next time!”
