Chapter 645 The Legendary Dragon Tomb

"What?!"

Lu Yu's eyes widened in disbelief at Zhang Yi.

"What exactly did you just say? My parents are military archaeologists?"

"I told you you'd be worked up when I told you this. Yes, they are military archaeologists. This information has been kept hidden, and only about 100 people know it. It wasn't until the information was declassified that more people became aware of it.

"Are they still serving in the military? I... I'd like to go visit them..."

Lu Yu was conflicted, as he hadn't seen his parents since he was a child. He had no idea what they looked like, and he had already treated his aunt as if she were his mother.

But now he was being told that his parents were still alive. This left him unsure of what to do.

"They aren't in the military. They are still in the dragon's tomb."

"Can I see them if I go to the military headquarters?"

Lu Yu finally realized why Zhang Yi was sure that Lu Yu would join the military immediately.

"I'm sorry, but I don't think that's feasible. They've been missing for nearly 20 years."

Lu Yu's eyes widened as he heard this.

"What, 20 years? But how?"

"They went missing while participating in an archaeological excavation. The ancient dragon tomb was where they disappeared."

"To be honest, we've given up looking for them, believing some wild beast has devoured them."

"However, an incident three years ago led us to believe that the two of them are still alive."

Lu Yu sighed deeply as he leaned back in his chair. The unexpected news had thrown his mind into disarray.

"Three years ago..."

Lu Yu had a flash of insight. Xu Mo had once told him that three years ago, while on a mission, he met someone who knew about Lu Yu and that he would awaken his dragon claws in three years.

"Do continue; what made you so certain three years ago that my parents are still alive?"

"Xu Mo was on a mission at the time. He was on his way to rescue someone an unknown organization had kidnapped, and that person said something to Xu Mo after he was rescued, confirming that your parents are still alive and exist in this world."

"He stated that the ancient dragon tomb is linked to a specific realm. However, opening the teleportation gate to that realm is extremely difficult. Nobody has yet figured out how to open it."

"Is this the only thing that person said? Do you believe that to be the truth?"

Zhang Yi went on to say, "That isn't all. He told us he had accidentally witnessed the portal opening and even tried it once. He met another person who told him a few things..."

"That's how he knew there would be someone named Lu Yu who would awaken dragon claws. That's most likely what happened."

"Of course, he also had a necklace on him. Your mother's necklace. It proves that he did indeed enter that realm."

After hearing what he said, Lu Yu was taken aback.

"So you are saying that a man entered a mysterious realm and was pursued after he came out three years ago? He had seen my parents and even knew who I was..."

"What happened to him?"

"He's already dead," Zhang Yi replied with a straight face.

"You guys didn't do a good job of protecting him?"

"No, unfortunately. We're still not sure who killed him."

Lu Yu exhaled a long sigh. "I have to say; I'm surprised by your information."

"Are you alright?"

"Don't worry; I'm not that weak. I also believe the military information is accurate."

Zhang Yi gave a slight nod. "If you join the military now, we'll send you to the ancient dragon tomb, as you'll be the only one who can find your parents."

"Do you want to come with me?" Lu Yu turned to Xu Yuan.

Many others would love to have a chance to visit an ancient dragon tomb. There are far too many opportunities there!

"Of course, I will do everything in my power to assist you in locating your parents."

"My aunt is with you," Lu Yu said, facing Zhang Yi. "Is she all right?"

"Of course, she quickly adapted to her new job and made numerous friends."

"Have you told her?"

Zhang Yi pursed his lips before nodding and replying, "Yes, we've told her, but she also barely knew anything before this. She discovered you at the orphanage after receiving a letter from your mother. Your mother is the one who gave you your name."

Lu Yu nodded. "Okay, I'll go there then. I'll find a way to track them down."

"Your parents didn't want this to happen, Lu Yu. They would never abandon you if they could. It's just that they lack the capabilities to come out of wherever they are."

Xu Yuan consoled Lu Yu.

"Are we now going to the military?" Lu Yu asked Xu Yuan.

Xu Yuan turned to Zhang Yi and asked, "I'll leave you all in charge of the portal. It should be fine, right?"

Zhang Yi smiled briefly. "You shouldn't need to worry about that. I'll take care of the rest."

Xu Yuan silently nodded. Zhang Yi was, after all, a colonel. Zhang Yi was far more powerful than him, and he didn't have to worry about this anymore.

"I'd like to bring some friends to the ancient dragon tomb. Can I?" Lu Yu asked, looking at Zhang Yi.

Zhang Yi lowered his head slightly, lost in thought. "It's preferable if you don't. But, we'll make an exception if it's you."

"We've been studying the ancient dragon tomb for many years, but we've made no progress. You are now our only hope, so I hope you can figure out what's going on there."

"No worries."

Lu Yu was pleased. It was wonderful to have teammates with whom he got along well.

Furthermore, he and his teammates had fought side by side for some time and developed an unspoken understanding. It would likely be uncomfortable if he had to get to know someone else again.

"I'll go talk to my friends and see if they want to follow me."

"No problem; I'll meet you here."

Lu Yu exited the armored car and approached Han Xuefei and Yun Zirou.

"How's your talk going?" Han Xuefei asked Lu Yu.

"Would you like to join the military with me?" Lu Yu inquired.

For a brief moment, Han Xuefei was stunned. "Are you saying I'm eligible to join the military?"

"Yes, of course. You are welcome to join the military with me as long as you are willing."

"Of course, I would love to!" Han Xuefei affirmed. "Such an opportunity is rare, so of course, I'm going to join."

"All right. Zirou, are you interested in joining the military with me?" Lu Yu then turned to ask Yun Zirou.

Yun Zirou took a deep breath and replied firmly, "Yes. I have nowhere else to go right now. I'm left with only you and my few friends, so I'll accompany you."

"So... should we go now? Wang Meng should also be prepared. He'll undoubtedly come with us."

Lu Yu gave a slight nod. "Please accompany me to the cemetery before we leave..."
