Chapter 365: 365, Su Yu Exposure_1
 

“Oh! So he ransacked the Red Forest Town Spiritual Practice School!” Minister of Intelligence Hilton exclaimed:

“I read the briefing forwarded by Moke (Hilton’s deputy) a few days ago, wondering how an underground gang would attack a spiritual training school. All makes sense if ‘Number One’ was pulling strings from behind.”

A woman leader sitting next to him said, “If ‘Number One’ is responsible, I guess he did it to get the teaching materials and techniques of the spiritual school.

Their spiritual energy on Blue Star has long been depleted, and their techniques have long been lost, so they probably lack these.”

“Yes, it makes sense.” Hilton agreed.

He nodded at the male agent and said appreciatively, “Carry on. What else have you found?”

The male agent cleared his throat and displayed the next image.

In the image were two Skurus, David and John, with dull complexions and listless pupils.

“After looting the spiritual practice school, ‘Number One’ infiltrated our nation and entered Wanda, a town at our border.

In Wanda, he used mind control spells to control these two people… (500 words omitted)… In the end, ‘Number One’ used a special spell to erase the memories of these two people and drove to the capital city of Treyna.”

The Skuru male agent spoke confidently about the image, making accurate guesses about seven or eight out of ten things that Su Yu had done.

After listening to his account, Hilton stroked his chin and mused, “So, ‘Number One’ is very proficient in mind control, probably something like a ‘Spiritual Mind Power Master’.

According to the intelligence we have collected, the Blue Star human who caused the downfall of Floating Island was also proficient in mind control. Could they be the same person?”

“No, I need to report this intelligence to the Chairman right away!”

Hilton took out an internal communication device from his jacket pocket and highlighted the information collected by the two agents to send to Chairman Cass.

Three minutes later.

An orange net-shaped humanoid projection appeared in the conference room; this projection was the chairman himself.

“Your Excellency Mr. Chairman!” Everyone in the conference room stood up and bowed to the Chairman.

“Please, everybody, rise.” Chairman Cass waved off the formality and said with his hands behind his back,

“I came right away after receiving your message. If the information you submitted is accurate, then this ‘Number One’ is most likely the Blue Star human who caused the downfall of Floating Island.”

“I have already ordered Treyna City to go into emergency mode. The city will be sealed off soon. This time we must capture this man!!!”

Cass was gritting his teeth when he made his last statement.

From the trembling forearm and icy tone of Chairman Cass, Hilton and others could feel the chairman’s immense rage.

For Chairman Cass, Su Yu sinking the Floating Island was a constant thorn in his heart.

Just as Prime Minister Cao Cao had set ablaze General Yuan’s supply depot during the Battle of Guandu, Su Yu sinking Floating Island had dealt a massive blow to the Skuru expeditionary force.

What was once the united Skuru expeditionary force started showing signs of division:

Emperor Manina XIII of the Raging Sun Empire was dissatisfied with Lun Kete leading the expeditionary force, always clamouring to replace the commander of the expeditionary force;

The anti-union organization in neighboring Beak Country was gaining momentum, and the force seems to be increasingly hard to control;

The capital’s populace, tormented by ‘Spiritual Overload Syndrome,’ was increasingly anti-war…

This was like a well-performing stock suddenly plummeting, causing a loss of confidence among the market, investors, and stockholders, and possibly even creating a vicious cycle.

Su Yu was the root cause of all this, and Chairman Cass was constantly cursing him.

Now that he had a chance, Cass swore to himself, he would eliminate Su Yu and give the people a satisfactory answer!

…

Hilton was well aware of this, and immediately said, “Don’t worry, Your Excellency Mr. Chairman. I’ll mobilize all my men right away, and we will definitely take out ‘Number One’ this time!”

“Hmm.” Chairman Cass nodded, preparing to end the projection and return.

But just then, the male Skuru agent suddenly raised his hand and said, “Wait, Your Excellency Mr. Chairman, there’s another major discovery I haven’t mentioned yet!”

“Oh, what major discovery?”

All eyes in the room immediately turned to the male agent.

All of a sudden, being watched by so many big shots made the agent’s heart almost jump out of his chest.

However, he still gritted his teeth, turned the present document to the next page, and said with a trembling voice, “Look at this first picture. ‘Number One’ in the picture is holding a fist-sized piece of gold.”

The picture was of the scene where Su Yu used the homemade Doghead Gold to stop a car. That scene was uploaded online via car surveillance.

“Well, then?” Chairman Cass asked impatiently.

“While investigating in the slums, we found this man…”

The agent switched the slideshow to the next page, which featured a large image of a Skuru male’s face: It was Bobby, who had been helping Su Yu in recent days!

“This man is called Bobby, a small gang leader in the slums. Recently, he somehow got dozens of pounds of gold. With the gold in hand, he ordered his men to buy rather bizarre items.”

He switched to the next image, which was the consumption records of Bobby and his gang, which the agents had gone to great lengths to compile.

Besides some daily necessities, most of the records were for a range of electronic products and flying cars, some new models and some old ones, even including second-hand cars discarded by others.

Seeing these consumption records, Hilton immediately understood:

“These items were most likely purchased under ‘Number One’s’ instruction! Blue Star technology is inferior to ours, so he would buy old electrical appliances and flying cars, definitely intending to take them back for research! And ‘Number One,’ he is likely to be near this man’s house!”

Upon understanding this, Hilton immediately saluted Chairman Cass, “Your Excellency Mr. Chairman, I will send people out right now and make sure to kill ‘Number One’ as soon as possible!”

“Hehe…Not necessary.” Suddenly, Chairman Cass started laughing, and his laughter was eerie: “Now that we have found his location, I will give him a big gift!”

He pressed a red button on the conference table in his office.

Hummm——

Accompanied by a sharp noise, the entire city began to shake violently as if an earthquake had struck.

The top of the tallest building in the Treyna City — the “Treyna Skyscraper,” which was 4,000 meters tall — suddenly opened like a living creature, revealing a gigantic gold eye!

Right after, the golden eye shot out an extremely thick golden laser that instantly hit the slums to the north of the city.

Bang!

The whole slum was blasted out of a huge crater several kilometers wide. The exploding dust shot high into the sky, and countless Skurus were turned to dust without any chance to react.

In terms of pure power, it was no less than a small tactical nuclear missile!
