Chapter 364: 364, Four days_1
For the following two days, Su Yu never left Bobby’s apartment building.
With the assistance of five Sanctuaries, Minister Hilton performed a thorough net-like search in the sky. They flew over Su Yu’s head as many as four times!
However, Su Yu managed to safely navigate through this crisis, thanks to his long-duration use of [Invisibility Skill] and the combination of [Master Level Magic Recovery Potion] to replenish his magic power.
During these two days, Su Yu had considered coordinating with Morningstar to eliminate one of the Sanctuaries, and they were certainly capable of doing so.
Nevertheless, considering the presence of an eighth rank God-level powerhouse in Treyna city, they dismissed the idea, knowing that they would have difficulty escaping unharened after making a move.
Hilton was just as exasperated.
At the start of the search, they were confident of finding Su Yu. Everyone was dedicated and the search process was efficient.
However, as time passed, their enthusiasm and confidence gradually dwindled.
By the end of the second day, no one among the Sanctuaries believed they would find Su Yu, and they all started to slack off to varying degrees.
Hilton was also aware that continuing the search would be fruitless.
Reluctantly, he called the other five Sanctuaries over for a discussion on how to wrap things up.
The six Sanctuaries gathered in the sky above the northern part of the slum (coincidentally right above Su Yu), some of them bearing relieved expressions.
Hilton sighed, “Well, if my guess is correct, that Blue Star Human has likely already left the slum. There’s no need for us to continue the search.”
The five Sanctuaries breathed a collective sigh of relief.
In an effort to give Hilton a way out, a neutral Sanctuary stood up and said:
“Minister, you’re right. We’ve gone through the slum eight or nine times for the past two days and found no one. There’s indeed no point in continuing.”
Hilton nodded, gave a military salute to the Sanctuaries: “You all have worked hard. Let’s go back and report to the Chairman. Afterwards, everyone can take a break.”
“Alright, Minister.” The Sanctuaries responded in unison, “Please inform us if you have any news about that human.”
A group of them politely flew towards the direction of the Congress Hall, to report to the Chairman.
However, no one noticed that as they left, a faint, invisible astral mark shot out from the apartment building below and entered Hilton’s body.
…
Twenty minutes after they left, Su Yu gradually appeared from the void in the apartment building below.
“Damn, they finally left!” He wiped off his sweat.
Treyna city was indeed filled with dangers and difficulties. If he didn’t have his handy [Invisibility Skill] and the trump card of [Hearthstone], being caught would most likely result in death here!
Morningstar jumped out of the pet space, shook her fur and said, “Meow, they finally left! I was so bored!”
After speaking, she took out her phone and started playing with it.
“Morningstar, did your [Star Mark] succeed?” Su Yu asked Morningstar.
[Star Mark] was the astral glow that had entered Hilton’s body just now. This skill would mark its target, enabling the user to share the target’s vision and other senses without the target’s awareness. It was very suitable for surveillance.
“You just relax!” Morningstar stepped on Su Yu’s shoulder with her paw: “I’m watching Hilton, you just focus on your tasks! I will inform you if anything happens.”
“That’s good.” Su Yu was relieved and contacted Bobby via [Mental Control]’s built-in psychic bridge link.
Three minutes later, Bobby returned to Su Yu’s side, and knelt down: “Master, I’m back.”
“Good to see you, Bobby.” Su Yu nodded at him: “Now, I have a few tasks for you…”
…
Unknowingly, another two days passed.
During these two days, Su Yu still didn’t leave the apartment building, but remotely controlled Bobby to do things for him.
Su Yu turned 20 kilograms of gold mixed with sand into doghead gold, cut it into small pieces and had Bobby sell them discretely in the black market, earning approximately 6 million Runket coins.
With these 6 million Runket coins plus Bobby’s 1.52 million, Su Yu directed Bobby and his subordinates to discretely purchase a large amount of electronic products, ranging from low-end to high-end, from the latest technology to decades-old versions.
They also purchased several hover cars, some of which were the latest models as well as collector’s items manufactured a hundred years ago.
Su Yu planned to take these items back to the Blue Star, and give them to scientists for research. This should enhance the technological level of the Blue Star to some extent.
Moreover, to fulfill his promise to Game Supervisor Donna, Su Yu specially bought some pearl powder for skin care and some beautiful tail decorations (such as a platinum ring inset with blue gemstones) to give her when he gets back.
Besides shopping, in these two days, Su Yu also attempted to have Bobby spend some money in the black market to gather information on the two Seniors. Regrettably, he didn’t get any information.
This left Su Yu both disappointed and somewhat relieved.
He was disappointed that he couldn’t meet up with the two Seniors, but relieved that since there were no news about the two Seniors, it meant they were safe, and had not fallen into the hands of the Skuru people.
…
It was the fifth day of Su Yu’s arrival on Skru Star.
That morning, a very important secret meeting was being held in a large conference room of the “Alien Apprehension Command.”
Information Minister Hilton sat at the head of the conference room, looking seriously at the projection on the wall.
Sitting beside Hilton were the high-ranking officers of the Command, all of whom were also very serious.
Standing next to the projector were a man and a woman, both of whom were agents. They were currently explaining the images in the projection.
“Firstly, we have investigated the earliest location where the alien ‘Number One’ appeared,” said the male agent.
‘Number One’ was the name the Command gave to Su Yu, meaning “the first Blue Star Human discovered on our home soil.”
The image in the projection was of Su Yu lying on the side of the road, signaling for help from passing vehicles.
The male agent said, “The location in the image is Raging Sun’s Red Forest Town. When ‘Number One’ first appeared in our sight, he already had the ability to disguise himself as one of us.”
“Hmm.” Hilton nodded without raising any objections, instead waiting for the two agents to continue.
“Then, ‘Number One’ used gold to lure two residents of the Raging Sun Empire…(omitted 300 words)…entered Red Maple Town…(omitted 500 words)…and ultimately led the raid on the Red Forest Magic School.”
The male agent’s logic was clear. He explained everything that Su Yu had done in Red Forest Town in great detail, provided with plenty of images for proof.
Obviously, the investigation capabilities of the Command were quite excellent, being able to research everything Su Yu had done so clearly in such a short amount of time.
