Chapter 343: 343, Doing the Last Thing for the Empire (additional update 1/3)_1
Su Yu put the [Sorrow of Fungus] from the table into his backpack, and then flew towards the Goldfinch imperial palace on the south side of the Silver Pine spire.
During the flight, Su Yu took out the [Inter-dimensional Communication Badge] Tina gave him and inputted three magical forces into it consecutively.
This was the code he and Tina agreed upon. Receiving this code meant he would be leaving this world for a while and wouldn’t be back in the short term.
In a small village near Rose City in the Kingdom of Lu Man, Tina took out her [Inter-dimensional Communication Badge] and quietly watched the badge light up with an orange glow three times before being extinguished.
After the glow of the badge faded for the third time, Tina did not put the badge away but continued to look and it blankly, lost in thought.
After a while, she pinched the badge in her hand and sighed deeply.
Tina’s younger sister, Lilith, was sitting beside her.
Lilith swung her tender little legs, blinking her eyes at Tina, “Sis, you still can’t let go of Nemesis, can you?”
“What? No! How is that possible?” Tina quickly denied and put the badge away.
“You’re just making excuses!” Lilith put hands on her hips. “Since the first day we started traveling around the world, I noticed that you’re not happy.”
“You’re running away, you want to give way to Queen Alise and Nemesis, choosing to retreat yourself, right?”
Lilith’s words were as striking as a hammer, her little face was full of seriousness.
“Uh…” Tina was speechless, she didn’t expect her thoughts to be completely seen through by her younger sister.
“In my opinion, you should go back and continue fighting! Happiness must be fought for!” Lilith pointed westward, “We, the Tides, don’t give up until the very end!”
Tina looked troubled, “But…”
“There’s no but!” Lilith only interrupted and told her, “If you don’t go, I will!”
Tina:
What are you going to do?
Lilith flipped her flaming red hair, “Our father once wanted to betroth me to Nemesis. If you’re going to play runaway, then I won’t be polite! I’m two years younger than Queen Alise, so I have more advantages!”
Tina:
Meanwhile, Su Yu had arrived at the gate of the Goldfinch Palace.
With Keerderon’s guidance, Su Yu met Alise in her study in the depths of the palace.
Alise was reading. Seeing Su Yu’s arrival, she closed the book and looked at him warmly, “Nemesis, you’re here!”
While Su Yu was at the Silver Pine spire, she would often visit him.
But she knew the heavy burden Su Yu carried, so she would often go there in the middle of the night to read with him, and leave early the next morning, without disturbing his grasp of magic too much.
Seeing Su Yu coming to find her now, Alise immediately knew what he was going to do.
“Nemesis, are you preparing for that mission?” Alise’s eyes narrowed.
“Yes, I plan on doing the mission.” Su Yu nodded.
In public, Su Yu, like everyone else, refers to Alise as Your Majesty, but when the two of them are alone, he basically just call her by her first name.
“I’m going to leave soon, and I probably won’t be able to return to this world for a long time.” Su Yu replied.
“How long will it be?” Alise tightly grasped the book in her hand.
“At least 3 months at the minimum, beyond that it’s hard to say.” Su Yu answered.
“3 months…. All right.” Alise nodded, her eyes slightly dimmed.
A cold wind blew by, she somewhat felt a bit chilly.
“Well, what’s the current situation of the war in the west?” Su Yu changed the topic.
“Not very good.” Alise shook her head slightly, “The western continent’s nations are almost totally occupied, the nobles of the western continent either surrendered or were conquered, the war is nearly reaching our homeland.”
“The impact of Grantex’s full defection with the Royal Navy was too great, we still haven’t recovered from that blow.”
The “defection of Grantex” Alise mentioned referred to the contents of the third promotional video of this expansion.
At the beginning of the expansion, Alise was confident she would defeat the united armies of the Lai Yin Empire and the Wind Chime and defend the Goldfinch continent from invasion.
But Marshal [Grantex·Golden Sparrow] suddenly took the Royal Navy and defected!
Without the Royal Navy, the Goldfinch Empire completely lost its sea power, like a toothless tiger, helpless against the great enemy naval fleet.
Although Alise used the coastal cannons produced in Su Yu’s territory to repel several attempts by the enemy fleet to land on the imperial mainland.
However, she couldn’t do much to counterattack on the western continent.
The war had lasted for a year now, and nearly all city states of the west continent have been invaded, the situation is not very good.
After finishing talking, Alise blinked her eyes, curiously staring at Su Yu, “Nemesis, you have the ability to foresee the future, right? How come you didn’t foresee Grantex’s defection? Is it a lapse on your part?”
Su Yu:
This question is really hard to explain.
The plot of this life is completely different from his past life.
In his past life, Marshal Grantex did not betray.
He not only didn’t betray, in the next expansion “Pandaren Empire”, he lead the imperial troops of the Goldfinch Empire to attack the Pandaren Empire, he was a key character throughout the expansion.
But in this life, Grantex actually defected!
So Su Yu is unclear about the direction of the plot.
“So, Alise, where is Grantex now?” Su Yu changed the subject.
“Hmm…” After thinking for a moment, Alise answered, “This traitor is now in Haiyan City, the capital of the Xi’er Federation, the same city you raided last time.”
“Understood!”
Su Yu nodded, took out the last reward from his backpack – [Glow of the Golden Sparrow].
“Then before I leave this world, I will do one last thing for the empire!”
[Glow of the Golden Sparrow] features 5: Additional skill [Glory’s Sacrifice]: Self-destruct to cause holy light damage equal to your maximum health X10 to all targets within a 1-kilometer radius. (Can only be used within the territory of the Goldfinch Empire, you will not be able to log in the game for 7 days after use.)
The skill [Glory’s Sacrifice] is marked “can only be used within the territory of the Goldfinch Empire”. If Su Yu wants to perform a suicide attack on Grantex who is in Haiyan City, it seems impossible, because Haiyan City is not the land of the Goldfinch Empire.
But it’s okay, Su Yu has other ways!
After Su Yu told Alise his plan, Alise nodded.
The two of them flew to the Embassy area in the west of the city, where members of the Gesang family from Haiyan City were seeking political asylum.
