Chapter 398: 397?Comrade Su Yu Delivers an Important Speech on the City Wall_1
“Boss Ke, welcome home!” Zhen Hong was the first to step forward from atop the castle wall and exclaimed aloud.
The surrounding players also crowded around Su Yu, excitedly saying:
“Welcome back, Boss Ke!”
“Boss Ke, we watched your video from last night over and over again. You’re simply amazing! We’re so proud of you!”
“You’re a role model for all of us!”
…
Facing these praises, Su Yu humbly said, “It’s nothing, really. I just did a little work…”
However, his words were interrupted by the enthusiastic gamers: “Don’t be modest, Boss Ke! Your merits are clear for all to see, and your deeds will be remembered for eternity!”
“There’s no need for you to be humble now; a hero deserves the treatment of a hero!”
“Boss Ke, when are you planning to stir things up at the Skru Star again?”
“Boss Ke, who is the ‘Prime Minister Cao Cao’ that you mentioned in your video? Why use such an antiquated title?”
The information about “ancient powers” has not yet been made public by the Blue Star government, so everyone only knows that “Prime Minister Cao Cao” is a formidable entity, but they don’t know who he is.
Su Yu smiled and was about to answer.
At that moment, a petite figure wearing brown leather armor squeezed out of the crowd and threw herself into his arms, hanging around his neck like a tree-dwelling koala.
This petite girl was Sky Dragon.
“Nemesis, I’ve been waiting for you for a full 10 days.” Sky Dragon buried her head in his chest and whispered.
“Well, I’m back now, aren’t I?” Su Yu gently patted Sky Dragon’s back.
“Next time, could you take me with you to the Skru Star?” Sky Dragon asked seriously as she lifted her head from his chest.
“If you can reach the level of a six-phase Sanctuary, I’ll bring you,” Su Yu responded with a smile.
“Then it’s a deal!” Sky Dragon let go of Su Yu’s neck, jumped back onto the ground, and promptly wrapped her arms around his arm instead.
Su Yu gave Sky Dragon’s head a gentle rub.
What a silly little girl, moving up to the sixth phase isn’t as easy as that! By the time he’d set off for the Skru Star again, Sky Dragon probably won’t have reached the Sanctuary level.
…
Su Yu looked over at the God Wing who was standing on the side with a smile on his face, and prepared to talk business.
But then, he overheard the conversation of two nearby players.
These two players were members of the [Emperor Blood Slayer Sky] guild and ranked among the top players in the game.
They were engaged in an animated discussion:
“Boss Ke eliminating the Chairman of the Lun Kete Alliance this time must have thrown the Skru people into complete chaos, right?”
“Absolutely, with the Chairman assassinated, their nation must be in a state of turmoil!”
“Plus, don’t forget that the Raging Sun Empire is watching eagerly; the Skru might break out in a full-scale civil war!”
“I think it’s possible, even if there’s no civil war, Boss Ke and other big shots will disrupt their formation. We have a huge advantage now!”
“Maybe in the later stages of the war, we could even seize the Skru Star for us humans to reside!”
As the two were talking, the players around them who heard them were all nodding in agreement, filled with confidence in the upcoming war.
Upon seeing this, Su Yu was taken aback.
Were they being overly optimistic about the current situation? They didn’t get the impression that Skru people are nothing much due to his triumphant return, did they?
Having realized this, Su Yu knew he had to do something.
So he gently broke free from Sky Dragon’s arm and said to the God Wing, “I need to say a few things to everyone. Be sure to record the video, God Wing.”
“Understood!” The God Wing immediately responded, activating the game’s built-in screen recording feature.
Su Yu nodded, then flew out of the tower window.
After flying out of the window and rising a bit higher into the sky, he turned to face all the players below: “Hello, everyone. I am Nemesis. I have something important to say.”
Hearing Su Yu’s words, the players on the city wall stopped cheering and looked at him.
Once all eyes were upon him, Su Yu said aloud, “I overheard some people’s comments just now and realized that some of you are too optimistic about the war situation, even to the point of complacency. This is a very dangerous signal!”
“I’m not here to throw a wet blanket, but I still need to tell you that at the current development trend, the possibility of our human race being exterminated is still over 90%!”
“By that time, aside from a few hundred ‘lucky ones’ being caged in a zoo for the Skru people to watch, everyone else will die! I’m not trying to be alarmist!”
Though Su Yu said he was not there to dampen spirits, he effectively threw a bucket of cold water on the players present.
Many people began to reflect.
After some serious consideration, everyone realized Su Yu was right. After he unveiled the mystery of the Skru people, many people had the thought that “The Skru people are just that,” and their spirits had relaxed considerably.
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became much quieter, with many people falling silent.
Su Yu paused a while then said seriously, “The Skru Star has 15 god-level eight-phase powerful beings, of which 7 are Skru people; 167 legends at the seventh phase, 63 of whom are Skru people; and there are nearly 2,000 like me at the six-phase Sanctuary level, and tens of thousands at the fifth phase! Tens of thousands, everyone!”
“Aside from the high-ranking cultivators, the Skru Star’s technology is at least 300 years ahead of ours. While our controllable nuclear fusion technology isn’t yet mature, they have already installed cold fusion energy devices on the armor of ordinary people! Not to mention, the population of the Skru Star isn’t less than ours!”
As Su Yu spoke, the crowd of players below had become deadly silent.
There are 2,000 people as powerful as Su Yu! With a technological gap of several hundred years, that’s indeed a hard gap to bridge.
Su Yu glanced at the crowd below and continued, “Faced with such a powerful enemy, we can’t be careless or underestimate our opposition in any way. It’s absolute folly! Even I can’t guarantee that I’ll survive. I hope you all can face the reality, be pragmatic, and not be complacent.”
Having said that, Su Yu slowly descended from the sky, preparing to return to the tower.
But then he remembered the players inquiring about “Prime Minister Cao Cao” and decided to take the opportunity to make it public to everyone.
“I’ll add one thing,” Su Yu looked at the silent players below:
“The ‘Prime Minister Cao Cao’ in the video is none other than Cao Cao from the period of the Three Kingdoms; ‘Mr. Zhu’ refers to the founding Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang, or Guorui.”
“They had already reached a high level in their spiritual energy cultivation before it was exhausted, and they have been alive until now. In the future, we will see more old predecessors appearing in our field of vision, so don’t be too surprised.”
Having said that, Su Yu landed and flew back to the tower.
The players on the city wall, on the other hand, looked at each other in disbelief, their faces expressing shock.
Su Yu’s words just now had left them stunned; now his recent words made them even more shocked!
Turns out, Cao Cao and Zhu Yuanzhang were actually ancient beings who have lived for hundreds, if not thousands of years?! How could that be possible?
