Chapter 229: The Warehouse Holding the Noble Captives! Ambush! Surrounded! [5/10 Subscribe]

Just as they stepped out of Wang Gong,

Rob Lucci said to Lu En, "He doesn't trust us."

"I could tell."

Lu En glanced at Rob Lucci, muttering inwardly.

You're only now realizing the man doesn't trust us?

What a slow reaction!

That's it?

And they call you a once-in-eight-hundred-years genius?

That "genius" title of yours seems to have a lot of water mixed in!

"But we don't need him to trust us, do we?"

"As long as the matter is resolved, that's enough."

"Hurry up, don't waste too much time here."

"I don't have time to keep being held up in a place like this."

Lu En waved his hand, not dwelling further on Rosed IV.

"You're right."

"Solving the problem is the best argument!"

"When the time comes, as long as we let him see the truth of the matter, he'll naturally believe it."

Rob Lucci nodded solemnly.

"Have you located that group of pirates' headquarters? And the exact location of those detained noble captives. Do we strike directly at the heart now? Or do you need time to prepare?"

Lu En asked.

"Strike directly at the heart!"

"Rather, it's you — do you need to prepare?"

"In a moment, an extremely intense 'nine-one-zero' and brutal battle is very likely to break out. If you're not confident you can handle it, my personal suggestion is that you could temporarily hold the rear."

"I won't look down on you — seeking good fortune and avoiding danger is only human nature."

"If it were me, I'd do the same."

Rob Lucci gazed deeply at Lu En and reminded him with a perfectly serious expression.

"Then I really do thank you."

"But there's no need."

"I told you — even if you died, I might not necessarily die."

"On the contrary, you'd better worry about your own personal safety."

Lu En let out a laugh.

He really couldn't figure it out…

Where did Rob Lucci get the confidence to think he's weak?

He truly couldn't understand it.

If Lu En got serious,

he was confident

he could take Rob Lucci down in a single move!

However,

there was simply no need.

"Let's go."

Next,

Lu En and Rob Lucci left Wang Gong directly, heading for the pirates' headquarters the latter had located, with no detailed plan whatsoever, preparing to strike directly at the heart and carry out the rescue mission.

Not long after the two had just left.

From Wang Gong walked a middle-aged man dressed in black, his expression cautious, silently tailing Lu En and the other in the direction they had gone.

Clearly,

he was a spy dispatched by King Rosed IV, tasked with secretly observing every move Lu En and his companion made.

It was plainly evident.

Rosed IV had never trusted Lu En and his companion from the very start.

Therefore.

He naturally had to make all manner of thorough preparations!

Dispatching a spy to closely monitor Lu En and his companion's every move at all times was Rosed IV's intention.

Just after this spy had begun tailing them.

Two more men appeared here, both dressed entirely in pure white, very tall and thin, nearly two to three meters in height, wearing white animal masks, looking extremely mysterious and bizarre.

"The person following beside Rob Lucci…"

"Really is just a little brat barely four years old!"

"The Marines have truly gone mad!"

These two were CP0 agents who had been tailing them all the way from the tavern.

Watching Lu En and his companion head straight for the pirates' headquarters, they couldn't help but silently shake their heads.

"Far too reckless!"

"This Rob Lucci is somewhat lacking in thinking ability."

"I'll give him seventy points."

"In the future, I can properly cultivate his abilities in thinking and strategy."

Joruf slowly took out the scoring sheet and gave Lucci the first score.

Seventy points!

A very low score!

But considering...

Lucci was only a boy of thirteen, so it was quite normal for him to have such a low score.

"Let's go."

"Let's go see how this kid Lucci will deal with that group of pirates. And how he will rescue those five hundred nobles and soldier captives from right under the eyes of those more than four thousand pirates."

The two CP0 agents followed the direction Lu En and the others had left, continuing to tail them.

On the other side.

After spending roughly half an hour or so.

Lu En and Lucci arrived at their destination!

"Are you sure this is where that group of pirates is holding the captives?"

Lu En pointed at a large warehouse ahead, lost in thought.

This large warehouse...

Had only one entrance passage!

It might well be the place where the captives were held.

As long as the door was locked, the captives could be prevented from escaping.

But what struck Lu En as strange was...

These pirates were far too bold.

To dare hold captives in a place only half an hour away from Wang Gong.

Weren't they afraid...

That Rosed IV, in his fury, would mobilize the entire kingdom's forces to attack?

But on second thought.

Lu En felt it wasn't very likely either.

With the lives of five hundred noble and soldier captives in hand, there was indeed no need to worry about Rosed IV daring to launch a full-scale attack.

In that case,

These wicked pirates would very possibly slaughter all the captives.

This would surely cause enormous impact and turmoil to Rosed IV's rule and prestige.

So.

Unless absolutely necessary...

Rosed IV could not openly dispatch sufficiently strong military forces to wage a major battle against more than four thousand vicious pirates.

"Dare to go in?"

Lucci asked.

"Let's go."

Lu En said no more, and directly stepped forward toward the massive warehouse ahead.

Seeing this,

Lucci squinted slightly, his gaze carrying a hint of approval as he sized up Lu En's back.

Though his strength wasn't that great...

His courage was more than ample!

His bravery was commendable!

"I'll go take care of the pirates guarding the warehouse. You go open the warehouse's door, release all the captives inside, and tell them not to make too much noise."

Lucci said.

"Alright."

Lu En nodded in agreement.

Then,

The two split up.

Lucci went to covertly assassinate the roughly several dozen pirates responsible for guarding the warehouse, ensuring none of the pirates noticed, and took out every pirate on site.

Lu En, meanwhile, came to the warehouse door.

Facing this massive warehouse door, which appeared to be made of some rather special, hard material, ordinary force could not break it open.

Even bombarding it with cannons, it would probably be very difficult to destroy this door.

However...

For Lu En.

This door was, at best, nothing more than this.

"Lucci's side should be almost done."

Lu En thought.
