Chapter 1030: Qi County
"Of course, the second matter is forming the Skrull Alliance." Morgan crossed his arms and spoke calmly, "We must follow the instructions from the Sacred Hymn. The formation of the alliance is a done deal.
"Next, we should focus on how to form the alliance, how much human resources each race will contribute, and how to allocate command of the alliance's forces. Everyone agree?"
"..." The leaders of the various races hesitated for a moment before they finally answered with difficulty, "Alright."
...
...
While the Skrull side was discussing the formation of the planetary alliance, a significant event was unfolding on Earth.
At 10:00 AM on April 10th, AI Blue Whale received a message from Donna: "I just received a message from the Sacred Hymn. The planetary-level being she dispatched will arrive on Earth shortly. The estimated arrival time is about two hours from now, and the landing coordinates, converted to Earth's coordinates, are approximately 114.17° East Longitude and 35.30° North Latitude. Please prepare for their arrival."
AI Blue Whale immediately forwarded the message to Su Yu, Chairman Hu Jing, Elder Yang Jian, and other high-ranking officials of the Earth United Government.
Upon receiving the message, Chairman Hu Jing, who was at the headquarters of Forest City in the game, was taken aback!
"The planetary-level being has finally arrived! We've been waiting for half a month, and now they're finally here!"
Without hesitation, Hu Jing quickly left the game and returned to the real world to prepare for the welcoming ceremony.
This was the most significant foreign dignitary Earth had ever welcomed, and they couldn't afford the slightest negligence.
The other Earth officials reacted similarly, immediately logging out of the game upon receiving the message.
Su Yu was currently in the Golden Rose Palace, where he was discussing state affairs with Ailijie and Tina during his leisure time.
The Golden Rose Empire and the entire game world had become the most critical supply base for Earth's humans, making its development crucial.
The more the game was developed, the more psychic energy could be brought out of the game, increasing the humans' chances of victory.
Morningstar, the cat, had no interest in state affairs. She was curled up on Su Yu's shoulder, her eyes half-closed, almost asleep.
Upon receiving the message from Blue Whale, Su Yu was startled for a moment before he quickly addressed Ailijie, Tina, and Morningstar: "The planetary-level being sent by the Sacred Hymn is finally here! They will arrive on Earth in about two hours.
"I need to go back and prepare for the welcoming ceremony. Would you like to come along?"
At Su Yu's words, Ailijie and Tina's eyes lit up.
"Planetary-level being! I want to see it! By the way, does it have three heads and six arms?" Tina excitedly jumped up from her seat.
"Calm down, Tina," Ailijie smiled slightly. "A planetary-level being definitely won't have three heads and six arms. At that level, an extra arm would just be a burden... But I want to see it too. This is an existence capable of destroying planets!"
Morningstar was no longer sleepy. She stood up from Su Yu's shoulder, her tail raised, and her cat eyes wide open.
Although she didn't speak, her reaction clearly showed that she also wanted to see it.
"Alright then," Su Yu smiled and brought up his personal panel. "Wait here. I'll go to the coordinates Donna sent and notify you once I arrive."
Su Yu then used his magic to click the "Exit Game" button.
His figure vanished from the game world in a flash.
...
Earth, 114.17° East Longitude, 35.30° North Latitude.
A pale blue portal opened in the sky, over 300 meters above the ground. Su Yu stepped out of the portal.
Looking down, Su Yu realized that he wasn't in as as he had expected, in some remote wilderness. Instead, he found himself above a rather ordinary county town, with a beautiful river running through it.
It was around 10 AM, and the town wasn't very crowded. Most people were still in the game.
However, the few people who were out on the streets couldn't believe their eyes when they saw the iconic portal and Su Yu:
"Oh my God, King Ke!"
"How did King Ke end up in our Qi County?"
"Didn't he mean to go to the teleportation array in Luoyang and just got the coordinates wrong?"
"That’s a possibility."
"But no matter what, welcome, King Ke!"
...
The people below waved and cheered enthusiastically at Su Yu.
Su Yu nodded politely in response, and from their exclamations, he realized where he was.
"Qi County? Which Qi County?"
He pulled out his phone and opened the map app, and also summoned Eliza and the cat from his spatial ring.
The tricolor helmet hovered in the air in front of Su Yu, and the two figures and a cat appeared in the real world.
The cat, Chenxing, was surprised: "Did that planetary-level strong really teleport here? I thought he’d land at the poles or in the ocean."
Landing the cat added, "If he landed in a densely populated town, wouldn’t he be seen by thousands of eyes?"
But it didn’t really matter; as a planetary-level strong, he shouldn’t care about such things.
Eliza turned to look at Su Yu: "Ke, is there anything special about this town?"
"Special...?" Su Yu tilted his head, thinking.
After a moment of reflection, he realized that he had never heard of Qi County before.
Not only that, but even the city above Qi County, Hebi City, was relatively unknown on a national level. He had only heard of it on the weather forecast.
"This town shouldn’t have anything special, right?" Su Yu was about to finish his sentence when the AI Blue Whale’s voice interrupted from mid-air.
"Su Yu, Qi County actually has many special qualities. According to my analysis, especially in the current environment, the planetary-level strong might have chosen this place for a specific reason."
"Specific reason?" Su Yu asked quickly.
The AI Blue Whale immediately answered: "Qi County was known as 'Chao Ge' in ancient times, and was renamed 'Qi County' during the Yuan Dynasty. The character 'Qi' comes from the 'Book of Songs: The water of Qi is deep, gradually wetting the curtain of the carriage.' The name 'Qi County' has been used ever since."
"Chao Ge? Could it be..." Su Yu immediately understood what Blue Whale meant.
"I don’t know 'Qi County,' but 'Chao Ge' is a name I’m very familiar with!"
"Exactly," the AI Blue Whale responded. "Chao Ge was the capital of China during the Shang Dynasty and also the place where the only planetary-level strong on our Blue Star, King Zhou Xin, left Blue Star."
This must be the reason the planetary-level strong chose to land here."
