130: Chapter 126 The War Begins, Back to School!

When Lu Yuan and his group emerged from the treasury of the Goblin Kingdom, Little Skeleton had long since cleared out the remnants of the enemy forces on the perimeter.

"Master."

Little Skeleton bowed its head respectfully, and in an instant, the entire sky turned dark.

[Skeleton Soldier (Demon Variant)]

[Race Grade: High-level Gold]

[Height: 146 meters]

[Level: LV.36]

[HP: 8,322,134]

[...]

Lu Yuan took one look at Little Skeleton's attribute panel and nodded with satisfaction.

Not bad, not bad.

After this wave, Little Skeleton was definitely the one with the richest harvest.

After all, it possessed two Hextech Runes with no upper limit for growth: 'Heartsteel' and 'Tank Engine'.

For it, killing monsters was like enjoying a luxury.

It was a pity that this guy's personality was too timid.

However, its performance this time was not bad.

Lu Yuan tossed the high-level skill stone he had just discovered in the treasury to Little Skeleton.

"This is your reward."

Seeing the attributes of the skill stone, Little Skeleton's eyes lit up.

"Thank, thank you, Master."

It immediately knelt on one knee and kowtowed heavily onto the ground.

Instantly, the entire ground shook violently.

...

Lu Yuan led his four Magic Pets into the teleportation channel and left the Goblin Kingdom dungeon.

Hum, hum, hum~~

Watching those few Magic Pets of different shapes and sizes slowly walk out of the teleportation channel, everyone outside held their breath, their faces filled with excitement.

They stared intently at the figure at the very back.

"What is this situation?"

As soon as he came out, he was stared at intensely by over a hundred people with wide eyes.

Lu Yuan instantly became alert.

If he hadn't seen two familiar figures in the crowd, he would have taken action immediately.

"Celia, Bai Zhi, why are you two here?

Hey, what is going on with these people?"

Celia and Bai Zhi immediately walked over.

The two of them stood on either side of Lu Yuan and whispered their explanation:

"Don't worry, Young Master, these are all our own people."

Then, Celia and Bai Zhi explained everything that had happened outside to Lu Yuan.

"So you're saying that the entire process of us fighting inside was live-streamed by you all?"

Lu Yuan felt a bit of social embarrassment.

Slime, on the other hand, was full of shyness.

That was indeed quite embarrassing...

However, listening to the praise from the crowd, Slime quickly put its hands on its hips and lifted its head slightly.

It had a haughty look, wanting to laugh but not daring to.

Little Skeleton, meanwhile, felt a serious crisis.

"A live broadcast of the whole thing... doesn't that mean all of my trump cards have been seen by these people?

This is so insecure.

No, after going back this time, I must learn more defensive skills!!"

Iron-Eating Beast paid no attention to external affairs and just kept doing push-ups.

Demon Pill was the most excited, jumping directly into the crowd and mingling with the students.

Lu Yuan cupped his hands and said to the students who had surrounded him:

"This time, thank you all for your righteous assistance.

From now on, you are all my sworn brothers and sisters from different parents. Everyone come and scan my Green Bubble.

Tonight, at the Heaven on Earth, the whole place is booked by us; let's have fun."

As the sole heir of the Lu family, although Lu Yuan hadn't had much contact with the upper echelons of the family or attended business events growing up, he had been influenced by his parents through osmosis.

His spending was always quite lavish.

Sure enough, upon hearing the words "Heaven on Earth," everyone present had their eyes light up.

"Holy crap, Young Master Lu is so generous!"

"That's the Heaven on Earth, you know! How much does a meal cost there?"

"If there are so many of us, even a light meal would cost tens of millions, right?"

"Eating? Who goes to Heaven on Earth to eat?"

"What do you want to do there then?"

"Hehehe, don't worry about it... I'm just asking if you're coming?!"

"Let's go!!!"

Especially the students from Star Academy.

Although they were all geniuses and enjoyed many benefits, having very good equipment and props, they didn't have much spare money, let alone go to a place like Heaven on Earth.

Principal Wu Long and the other teachers looked at Lu Yuan, who had hit it off with these students he was meeting for the first time in just a few sentences, and all shook their heads helplessly.

"This little guy... he certainly has a way of winning people over."

Principal Wu Long walked up with a smile and signaled for everyone to be quiet.

"Alright, alright, students.

It's time for us to head back."

Because Lu Yuan had killed the King of the Goblin Kingdom, the Goblin army had long since scattered and fled.

They didn't encounter any danger along the way and soon returned to the capital.

General Yuan Muzhi had long been waiting at the city gate in person.

Seeing Lu Yuan, his eyes lit up, and he immediately went up to greet him.

"Good, good, good!"

He said the word "good" three times in a row, looking Lu Yuan up and down carefully.

"Truly a hero among the youth! To be able to slay a Hegemon-level BOSS alone at such a young age, you are indeed a formidable successor!"

Lu Yuan remained very humble and quickly cupped his hands, saying:

"Not at all, not at all. It was all thanks to your Demon Suppression Army.

Without you, there would be no safety and stability in the major cities, and there would be no such thing as a talented youth."

This sentence went straight to the hearts of the Demon Suppression Army.

If they had previously only regarded Lu Yuan as a rare, peerless talent, then now, they truly acknowledged Lu Yuan from the bottom of their hearts.

General Yuan Muzhi nodded heavily, then took out a badge from his spatial equipment.

"In view of your heroic actions this time, I, General Yuan Muzhi, on behalf of the entire Demon Suppression Army, confer upon you the Badge of Honor."

This time, even Principal Wu Long was very surprised.

"Whoa...?

The Badge of Honor of the Demon Suppression Army? Old Yuan is really going all out this time."

The Badge of Honor of the Demon Suppression Army granted Level 5 authority within the military, equivalent to a Major General.

It was extremely precious!

Lu Yuan's expression was serious as he accepted the badge with both hands.

"Then I will not decline. From now on, whenever the Demon Suppression Army has a need, I, Lu Yuan, will certainly spare no effort."

General Yuan Muzhi was even more satisfied with the young man in front of him.

"Good, from now on, you are family with our Demon Suppression Army.

Good kid, hurry back to school."

General Yuan Muzhi patted Lu Yuan on the shoulder and looked past him into the distance.

"The surrounding major cities are likely to enter a state of war next."

"Huh?" Lu Yuan was a bit confused. "Hasn't the beast tide caused by the Goblin Kingdom already been resolved?"

General Yuan Muzhi sighed.

"The Goblins have been resolved... but there is a greater crisis.

Look over there."

Lu Yuan turned his head and looked toward the wilderness on the horizon, following the direction of General Yuan Muzhi's finger.

He saw that, amidst the jungles and mountains, pairs of scarlet beast eyes were faintly emerging—dense and numerous, like the stars in the sky.

"These... are all monsters?!"

Even Lu Yuan couldn't help but gasp.

The expressions of General Yuan Muzhi, Principal Wu Long, and the others were very grave.

"Yes, they are all monsters.

We only found out about it over half an hour ago. The source of this beast tide is not the Goblins; they were just the vanguard.

The true crisis is deeper in the wilderness."

General Yuan Muzhi's voice was heavy.

"This is no longer as simple as a beast tide; this is a war!!"
