Chapter 379: 379, The ultimate winner of the epic battle for the inheritance of the super artifact_1
While conversing with Cindy Doppler, Su Yu suddenly realized that this was a golden opportunity!
Since the high-ranking powerhouses of the Lun Kete Alliance had all gone to the Savage Continent, Chairman Cass remained in the country.
Could he possibly have a chance to assassinate Cass if he brought around his Backhorse spear and returned to the city of Treyna?
Once Cass was assassinated, chaos was assured within the Lun Kete Alliance!
Thinking about that, Su Yu decided to give it a shot!
Thus, he looked at Cindy Doppler and truthfully conveyed his thoughts.
He knew Doppler’s character well. In his previous life, Doppler had always been a solid ally of the Blue Star Humans despite the annihilation they faced towards the end, so he wasn’t worried about being betrayed.
Cindy Doppler, on the other hand, was completely shocked by Su Yu’s audacious plan.
“Infiltrate Treyna to assassinate Cass? That’s indeed a bold idea!” he exclaimed.
“What do you think?” Su Yu asked, his gaze sharp as he looked in the direction of Treyna City to the southeast.
Cindy Doppler stroked his chin in deep thought, his expression constantly changing.
Thinking seriously about it, Su Yu’s plan might just have a shot!
After giving it some thought, he heaved a sigh: “Your Excellency Su Yu, I support your decision. Let us know where we can help.”
“Actually, there’s something. Provide me with a fighter plane!” Su Yu replied.
Starlight: “Fighter what?”
Su Yu: “…”.
…
Half an hour later, Su Yu boarded the fighter plane that Doppler had gifted him and headed towards the Savage Continent.
Given that all the high-ranking powerhouses in the world were now rushing to the Savage Continent, flying in that direction would not draw any suspicion from other countries.
The fighter plane was very fast and left the borders of the Beak country in just one hour.
Ten minutes after leaving the border, Su Yu gave the order to the plane: “Command: Descend here!”
“Yes, sir,” the AI system of the fighter plane immediately responded and began to slow down, landing in a flat, open area on the ground below.
After a safe landing, Su Yu took Starlight from the plane, opened the necklace and put the fighter plane into it.
Starlight took out a cellphone and searched their current location.
This phone, designed specifically for her by Cindy Doppler, used a special satellite positioning system that could receive signals even 500 meters underwater.
According to the cell phone map, Starlight discovered that they were already at the edge of the Savage Continent.
She showed the phone to Su Yu and asked, “Nemesis, are you really planning to go to Treyna city for the assassination?”
Starlight originally wanted to take a shot at acquiring the super-weapon. After all, with her ten lives, she might just get lucky.
However, Su Yu nodded firmly. “Indeed, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!”
“But don’t you think this could be dangerous?” Starlight leaned on Su Yu’s shoulder and turned to look at him.
“No worries”, Su Yu replied confidently, “Even if our assassination fails, we don’t lose anything. If it succeeds, we hit the jackpot!… Starlight, you navigate. Let’s start now!”
Having said that, Su Yu took off, heading towards the Lun Kete Alliance with Starlight.
…
It was about 1800 kilometers from Su Yu and Starlight’s current location to the city of Treyna. Given Su Yu’s flying speed, they would need about eleven and a half hours.
However, Starlight constantly channeled acceleration spells while standing on Su Yu’s shoulder, occasionally even transforming into the [Starlight Tree] form to restore his mana.
Despite the detours Su Yu was taking to prevent detection, they managed to reach the outskirts of Treyna City in just eight hours.
In a forest on the outskirts of Treyna, Su Yu sat on a towering tree branch to rest and replenish his mana.
Meanwhile, he asked Starlight, who was browsing information on her phone nearby on another branch, “Starlight, can you track Cass’s location?”
Starlight, who was currently lounging lazily on the branch while scrolling her phone, responded:
“Cass is holding a press conference at the Congress Hall Press Office. It seems he’s discussing the gathering of high-ranking powerhouses in the Savage Continent. It’s live broadcasting now!”
Starlight projected a 3D image from her phone into the air, and the projection showed Cass eloquently addressing the press conference.
“Alright, let’s go to the Congress Hall now”, Su Yu stood up from the tree branch.
Just as he was about to make his move, his cellphone in the pocket vibrated.
Checking it, Su Yu saw that it was a message from Cindy Doppler: “Your Excellency Su Yu, I didn’t want to disturb you, but this news is extremely important: according to the latest information I’ve received, the competition for the super-weapon at the Savage Continent has concluded!”
Subsequently, Cindy Doppler sent a video.
Before Su Yu had time to react, Starlight, now perched on his shoulder, promptly extended her paw and played the video.
Su Yu merely looked at Starlight, then moved his gaze onto the video.
The video was pretty blurred. It looked as if it were filmed by recording equipment hundreds of years old.
Nonetheless, through the video Su Yu was able to vaguely make out Prime Minister Cao, an elderly white-bearded man, holding a battered sword hilt and battling the God Level powerhouse Pu Langte of the Raging Sun Empire.
The might of the sword hilt seemed limitless as a blue force emanating from it completely shattered the mecha armor on Pu Langte’s left leg.
However, Prime Minister Cao also wasn’t in good shape. His face turned from blue to white continuously, and his entire body trembled as if he couldn’t control the power of the sword hilt.
The video was just 30 seconds long. At the end, Prime Minister Cao used the hilt to repel the approaching Pu Langte, transforming into a blue light and disappearing over the horizon.
Su Yu: “…”.
The video left him dumbfounded!
Clearly, Prime Minister Cao, who had obtained the hilt of the “Sword of Many Proverbs”, emerged as the winner in the struggle for the super-weapon!
However, this was just a hilt and not the complete “Sword of Many Proverbs”.
Although the hilt was quite powerful, capable of aiding the sixth-ranked Cao Cao in a frontal fight against a God Level powerhouse, it must be very difficult to challenge the entire forces of the Skye star with only a hilt, he thought.
The video ended just as he escaped, but it was not difficult to imagine that the God Level powerhouse of Skru Star would not give up on this hilt and would definitely chase Prime Minister Cao to the ends of the earth.
He wondered if the old man could hold on.
Su Yu sighed deeply, hoping for Prime Minister Cao’s safe escape.
Just then, Cindy Doppler sent two more messages: “You saw the video. ‘Number 2’ got a hold of the hilt and is being besieged by ten God Level powerhouses.”
“The remaining high-ranking powerhouses in the Lun Kete Alliance are preparing to return home. Therefore, you should act quickly on your side. If they return home, it will be too late.”
Su Yu mulled it over and responded, “All right, we will make our move now.”
