Chapter 320: 320, Isn’t this better than a girlfriend? (Additional Update) _1

The reason why Su Yu didn’t participate in this event was not because he was afraid other players would be unhappy with the rewards he’d receive, but rather, he feared messing up during the event.

Once players enter the event map, the balance of power would dynamically adjust to an identical level, leaving him with no particular advantage.

If a fellow group member lucked out, winning loads of equipment or something as game-changing as the [Bloodline Curse Rune] (which could reduce the opponent’s attributes by 50%), it would highly endanger his odds of success.

Being well aware of his consistently bad luck in the game, Su Yu had no interest in joining a luck-based event.

Yet Snow Leopard took a different perspective from Su Yu’s.

Snow Leopard believed that with Su Yu’s knack for forecasting, he could predict the location of newly emerging monsters, strategically striking early and securing the position of “Gu King”.

Snow Leopard felt that Su Yu was merely avoiding the competition not to harm the fragile self-esteem of other players.

Hence, Snow Leopard’s impression of Su Yu improved greatly: “Actually, it’s quite nice you’re not participating in this event.”

Snow Leopard: “However, you should make an announcement on the forum. I noticed several threads discussing you when I passed by the forum.”

Su Yu: “Okay, I’ll go to the forum right away.”

Next, Su Yu posted on the forum bore the title— “Official Statement: I Will Not Participate In This Event”.

In the post, Su Yu reasoned that he’s “giving everyone a chance”, highlighting his nobility and integrity.

Knowing Su Yu’s unique future-predicting ability (as Commissioner Zhang mentioned in his video), the players praised Su Yu’s behavior extensively.

An hour after posting, the post garnered hundreds of thousands of comments, and millions of likes!

Players praised Su Yu for his nobleness, purity, and elevation beyond petty fun, proclaiming him a role model of the new era. Simultaneously, everyone was gearing up for the event, hopeful to be the next “Gu King”—even if the odds were smaller than winning 5 million in a lottery.

Even after posting, Su Yu was already at the entrance of the Mage Tower, preparing to enter.

But instead of pushing the door open, he paused with his hand on the door.

Su Yu had an idea—to stream the [Illusion Duel] in the game via the forum’s link during the evening, thus, multitasking by practicing while watching the game. A good way to pass the otherwise dull practice time.

With this in mind, Su Yu decided to log out and save the game time for the evening.

Su Yu’s figure disappeared in front of the Mage Tower with a flash of white light, along with Mage Tower’s pet, Cat Morning Star.

A while after, little Kathy stepped out of the Mage Tower on her two wobbly feet, complaining under her breath: “Lord is such a nuisance! We were chatting away, and then he suddenly disappeared. Who knows when we’ll meet again?”

Kathy knew that once the lord left the game, he’d be absent for six or seven days, a long time.

She massaged her aching head and headed towards her home in Aphi City.

In the real world…

Before Su Yu could remove his helmet after logging out, Cat Morning Star already jumped out of the pet space and threw herself towards his phone on the bed.

It had been two full weeks since Cat Morning Star set foot in the real world for the first time, but her obsession with the phone never waned. Securing the phone the moment she logs offline is of utmost importance to her.

She even programmed her paw print into the fingerprint unlock system so that just a swipe with her little paw unlocked the phone.

Now she is nestled on the bed, her eyes glued to the phone, utterly engrossed.

Su Yu stood up, removing his helmet and stretching his stiff body from hours of sitting.

As he stretched, he glanced towards bed-ridden Morning Star, “How did your recovery go today?”

Without taking her eyes off the phone, Morning Start replied: “Just returned to fourth level today. The pace isn’t bad. In a few days, I should be able to reach peak fourth level… by the time you go to the different dimension, I should be back to the initial sixth level.”

“Reached the initial sixth level? That’s good news!” A smile crept over Su Yu’s face.

With Morning Star’s combat power surpassing his post-sixth level and her ability to resurrect ten times, Su Yu’s safety for his trip to Skru Star would considerably increase!

But as Su Yu looked at Morning Star’s fluffy body that was sprinkled with a touch of stardust, he felt a sudden urge to pet her.

He moved towards Morning Star.

Noticing Su Yu’s questionable intentions for her body, Morning Star curled up and managed to turn around, her face now filled with caution: “What are you trying to do?”

“Let me pet you, okay?” Su Yu extended his hand towards her.

“No!” Morning Star replied immediately.

And she had the perfect strategy to deal with this kind of situation.

With a swift transformation, she changed into a cat-eared human maid. Although her body changed instantly, she continued playing on the phone. Her short, fluffy tail swung from side to side behind her.

Su Yu’s hand hung awkwardly in mid-air.

Morning Star in cat form was so cute that he couldn’t resist the urge to pet her. But when she became human, he just couldn’t bring himself to do it anymore.

“Sigh,” Su Yu sighed deeply. The color in his vision suddenly shifted from vibrant to monochrome. Wordlessly, he sat back down on the sofa.

Morning Star’s hardened heart melted at the sight of Su Yu’s hopeless face: “Maybe… you can pet me a little?”

She transformed back into the Star Realm cat, gracefully landing on Su Yu’s thigh with a leap.

But she didn’t put the phone down. Under her magical control, the phone was always floating about six centimeters before her eyes.

Su Yu cradled Morning Star in his arms, petting her fluffy body. Instantly, he felt a lot of his pressure melt away.

A sensible and obedient cat is truly healing! Unlike a girlfriend who would only stress him out.

Lost in his thoughts, Su Yu was startled by a sudden incoming call on his phone.

It was Xue Wenli calling.

Without a word, Morning Star quickly answered the call and held it up to Su Yu’s ear. “Talk fast! Keep it short! You only have 1 minute of call time!”

Corner of Su Yu’s mouth twitched.

On the other end, Xue Wenli’s laughter came through: “Haha, is that your Star Realm cat speaking?”

Before Su Yu could answer, Morning Star leaped onto his shoulder, shouting at the receiver: “Human, if it’s not important, don’t chat! Only 45 seconds left!”

“Alright, alright, I didn’t know she had such a temper.” Xue Wenli chuckled on the other end of the line.

“Anyway, let’s get to the point. The medical researchers in our department didn’t find any extraterrestrial bacteria or virus samples from Morning Star’s movement path yesterday. Just as she said, her body may indeed not contain any pathogens.”

“So, you can take her outside to any place, but it’s best not to leave East Sea City.”

Having said this, Xue Wenli promptly hung up.
