Chapter 439: 438, The Test of Holy Silver Court of Secrets (Additional Update)_1
“We surrender.” Looking at the body of their commanding officer, ordinary Skuru soldiers and some lower-ranking officers chose to surrender en masse.
It wasn’t the average person who could join the Star Expedition Army, all Skuru soldiers had some insight and they instantly recognized Su Yu and Tina as not ordinary Sanctuary powerhouses.
Their base’s defence could withstand an attack from a sixth-level Sanctuary, but the problem was that Tina and Su Yu were much stronger than the average sixth-level powerhouses!
Su Yu had charged in at an extremely fast speed and had killed their commanding officer in the blink of an eye; Tina had split apart a laser beam that could’ve seriously injured a regular Sanctuary powerhouse, and even her hair remained unaffected!
This meant that these two were definitively the elites among the sixth-level Sanctuary, the base couldn’t resist them at all.
Adding the method Su Yu used to “”attack their spirit”” earlier, there were no soldiers left wanting to be Jade Shattered for their nation, they could only choose to surrender.
…
Whoosh whoosh whoosh ——
The Blue Star troops stationed at the foot of the mountain noticed that Su Yu had successfully taken control of the Giant Skru Base and under the command of Commander Zhao, a large number of armed helicopters rushed to the top of the mountain.
The armed helicopters landed around the Giant Skuru Base in batches. Army soldiers got out of the helicopters in a single file, raised their submachine guns or laser guns captured from the Skurus, and began to take over the base methodically.
Moreover, this wasn’t the first time for the soldiers to take over a Skuru base. The last time at Yunlu Mountain they had actual combat experience. The second time, their movement was faster, more organized and disciplined.
“Drop your weapons!”
“Get down!”
“Hands on your head!”
One by one, instructions in the Skuru language were shouted out from the mouths of the Blue Star soldiers, words they had learned over the past month from prisoners of war.
The Skuru soldiers were all surprised that these Blue Star Humans could speak the Skuru language, but they didn’t dare to say anything, and surrendered with hands on their heads.
Some Skuru soldiers tried to be clever, planning to use their racial talents to disguise themselves as Blue Star soldiers and blend in.
Su Yu showed them no mercy. He directly used a [Thunderfall Skill], reducing these Skuru soldiers to dust.
And it was easy to spot these disguised Skuru soldiers. Blue Star soldiers couldn’t possibly carry spiritual energy, whereas Skuru soldiers were at least first-level beings, carrying spiritual energy. It was very easy to distinguish them.
After killing a dozen or so Skuru soldiers who wanted to cause trouble, the rest of the soldiers became well-behaved and quietly accepted capture by the Blue Star army.
At this moment, Tina flew over to Su Yu and stood shoulder to shoulder with him.
“Nemesis, are there 3600 bases in a different dimension like this one?” Tina softly asked Su Yu.
“That’s correct.” Su Yu nodded.
“Sigh, it seems your pressure is really not small!” Tina sighed slightly, “But I will do my best to help you.”
“Thank you, Tina.” Su Yu flew over and put his arm around Tina’s shoulder.
“Don’t mention it.” Tina leaned her head gently on Su Yu’s shoulder, her face full of worries.
“Let’s not talk about this,” Su Yu changed the subject, “the skill you used to split the laser beam was what? It looked quite powerful.”
“It was [Cross Slash]!” Tina smiled, “Before I set out to travel the world, didn’t I promote three generals in the army, Aganzuo, Bu Wanjia, and Kelly?”
“[Cross Slash] is one of Aganzuo’s family secret techniques. As a payback, he granted me this technique.”
Su Yu nodded, “Oh, so that’s how it is.”
But speaking of which, this technique was indeed quite powerful.
…
While Su Yu and Tina were chatting, the figure of Linke, the battle inspector of the Singer Civilization, gradually appeared in the air.
He raised his right hand and aimed it at the sky. A bluish beam shot out of his hand, and the space cracks in the sky gradually closed and eventually disappeared without a trace.
Su Yu saluted him from a distance, “Greetings to you, Sir Linke!”
“Hello, Su Yu!” Linke slowly flew towards Su Yu, “I’ve been keeping an eye on your actions, and you are doing really well!”
“Oh, not at all. I still have a lot of room for improvement.” Su Yu offered modestly.
Linke came to a stop two meters in front of Su Yu and said seriously: “Su Yu, there’s something I need to tell you.”
“What’s that?” Su Yu asked.
“It’s like this.” Linke took out a reddish-brown wooden box from the storage space. The box flew out of his hands and landed in Su Yu’s palm.
The lid of the box popped open automatically, revealing a copper badge inside.
Linke chuckled: “After the dean met you last time, he felt you were not quite ready to join the Mystery Academy. So, he asked me to give you a special test, and this test is — dealing with the Skuru.”
Linke continued: “During your planet’s war with Skru Star, the Mystery Academy will score your performance. The total score is 10, as long as you score more than 6, you can join the Mystery Academy.”
Throughout Linke’s conversation with Su Yu, he never glanced at Tina, as if she didn’t exist.
Su Yu felt that something was odd.
Suddenly he asked, “In that case, Sir Linke, can I give up this test?”
If he remembered correctly, the dean of the Holy Silver Court of Secrets had referred to him as a “Cosmic Seed”.
Although he didn’t know exactly what a “Cosmic Seed” was, the dean shouldn’t have set a threshold for him to join, right?
Could it be a tactic to “play hard to get”?
Linke obviously didn’t expect Su Yu to ask this and was taken aback.
As Su Yu had guessed, they did want to “play hard to get”, but he hadn’t expected Su Yu to detect it.
“Ahem.” Linke coughed twice to change the subject: “The test you can’t decline, it’s like your life, once it begins there’s no turning back.”
His gaze moved down to the wooden box in Su Yu’s hand:
“The copper badge inside represents academic credits from the academy. The number ‘5’ on this badge stands for five academic points. In the future, your outstanding performance in the war will earn you more academic points. After passing the test and joining the Mystery Academy, you can exchange all badges for academic points.”
Su Yu nodded: “Oh, I see.”
It was only then that he fully grasped the dean of the Mystery Academy’s intentions.
The dean was feigning the test, the real motive was to tempt him to join the Mystery Academy with academic points.
If Su Yu survived the war between Blue Star and Skru Star, there was no doubt that he would get a lot of academic points, probably up to tens of thousands!
If he didn’t want to waste so many academic points, he would have to join the Holy Silver Court of Secrets instead of other forces.
But Su Yu didn’t mind.
The Holy Silver Court of Secrets was the best academy in the Holy Silver Federation, he had no plans to switch to other forces.
“Then, Sir Linke, thanks to the dean for giving me this test!” said Su Yu sincerely.
“Don’t mention it. We hope that you can pass the test early and eventually join the academy!” Linke encouraged.
