Chapter 1068: Mona's Subspace
The most puzzling thing about Su Yu's situation was—why did Mona want to pull him into her subspace?
If she she they could fight outside as well. As a mercenary, it would be more convenient for Mona to fight him in the open. So why did she invite him into her subspace? Su Yu pondered over this question.
After a brief moment of contemplation, Su Yu came up with two possible explanations:
The first possibility was that Mona had set up some lethal trap within her subspace. Once he entered, he would be mercilessly eliminated, and Mona would stop at nothing to deceive him into the subspace.
The second possibility was that there was nothing particularly dangerous within the subspace. However, the subspace was isolated from the outside world, so Mona could speak with him privately without any interruptions. This meant that Mona wanted to have a private conversation with him.
Both scenarios were plausible.
However, based on Su Yu's intuition, the first possibility seemed unlikely. As a mercenary under the command of Chancellor Cao, Mona was unlikely to have the means to set up such a deadly trap.
Therefore, the more probable scenario was the latter.
Su Yu concluded that Mona likely had something important to say, which was why she invited him into her subspace.
Once he understood this, Su Yu no longer felt conflicted.
If Mona had something to say, he might as well enter the subspace and listen to what she had to say.
Mona, after all, was a teacher at the Holy Silver Secret Academy and held a significant position in the Holy Silver Federation. There was no harm in interacting with her.
Thus, Su Yu turned to Zhong Feng and said, "Zhong Feng, you'll be in charge of the war operations for a while. I'll be back soon."
"Wh-what? You really plan to enter the subspace?" Zhong Feng was clearly taken aback by Su Yu's words.
At this critical moment, the idea of leaving the safety of the Dragon Abyss Four-Element Array and entering the enemy's subspace seemed incomprehensible to Zhong Feng.
However, Su Yu nodded firmly, "Yes, I'll be back. Meeting Mona might yield some unexpected benefits. You don't need to worry about my strength. Even if Mona has set up a trap, I can handle it."
"Alright, be careful," Zhong Feng said, seeing that Su Yu was determined.
...
After handing over the command to Zhong Feng, Su Yu and Mona both entered the subspace.
The subspace, originally the size of a thumb, expanded under Mona's spell. From the outside, it grew to a cubic meter, floating above their heads, shimmering with a silvery-white glow.
However, the interior of the subspace was far from just a cubic meter.
Under Mona's guidance, the interior of the subspace was surprisingly vast when Su Yu entered! The ceiling was a layer of gray mist, and the floor was a pure white organic polymer tile.
Su Yu surveyed the surroundings, his psychic energy spreading out. It took a full kilometer before it touched the boundary.
This meant that the entire subspace was at least one kilometer in length!
What surprised Su Yu even more was that the subspace contained no deadly traps. Instead, it was filled with various personal items.
Looking around, he easily spotted Mona's personal belongings, such as her clothes, cosmetics, and shoes.
In addition to personal items, the subspace also housed various high-end weapons and equipment.
Su Yu had heard Donna mention before that Mona was a bit of an experiment enthusiast, dedicating around 70-80% of her waking hours to various experiments.
As expected, Su Yu saw numerous experimental instruments in the subspace, including various bottles and jars, some of which were emitting flames, smoke, or eerie indigo and azure lights.
Of course, Su Yu didn't recognize most of the experimental instruments, but he could tell they were used for experiments based on his experience.
From the household items, weapons, and experimental instruments, it was clear that this place wasn't meant for fighting. Instead, it seemed more like Mona's personal storage.
If they really wanted to fight, bringing him here would be completely illogical.
It seemed that Mona had a specific reason for pulling him into the subspace.
...
Mona had a sudden urge to bring Su Yu into the subspace.
She hadn’t planned to have a private chat with Su Yu beforehand, but the idea struck her when she saw him.
Thus, she didn’t have time to tidy up the household items and various bottles and jars, which were now exposed before Su Yu.
"Cough, cough." Mona lightly coughed twice.
Then, she used the Concealment Spell to hide everything in the subspace, making it invisible to Su Yu.
Su Yu didn’t mind these details. He smiled slightly and asked, "Lady Mona, you didn’t bring me into the subspace to fight, did you? You must have something to say, right?"
"You guessed right," Mona replied calmly.
"Then, what did you bring me here for?" Su Yu floated steadily in the middle of the subspace, his eyes fixed on Mona.
"It’s not a big deal, I just had a sudden urge to bring you in," Mona said, smoothing her hair. "But this time, I have a few questions for you and a suggestion to make."
"Oh, what do you want to ask?"
"Su Yu, I heard Link mention you. Do you have the qualifications to be a student at the Holy Silver Secret Court?"
"Of course. The Tixin Defense Network is what I spent 10,000 academic points on." Su Yu answered cautiously.
At this point, Su Yu was still unclear about what exactly Mona was selling, so he remained cautious.
"That’s good." Mona smiled, "I am, after all, a teacher at the Holy Silver Secret Court. Since you will be joining our Secret Court in the future, we are somewhat on the same side... So, let’s have a simple sparring session, shall we?"
As Mona spoke, she raised a magical shield and prepared to cast a spell.
By saying "sparring," she actually meant to guide Su Yu in casting spells, offering him some benefits through this practice.
Su Yu, of course, understood this and would definitely not refuse.
Su Yu immediately cast the Divine Shield and began to cast a lower-level offensive spell.
While practicing the spells, the two of them didn’t forget to continue their conversation.
"Let me be honest." Mona said with a slightly worried tone, "I’m not really concerned about the war between your Blue Star and Sickle. Whichever side wins is of no concern to me. I’m just a hired soldier from the Holy Song Sect, so in your Blue Star, I just play the role of a bystander."
Su Yu nodded, "Yeah, I can understand that. What’s next?"
