Chapter 1069: No Action Taken
Chapter 1069: No Action Taken
"There's only one person I'm really worried about: Daraque," Mona's expression turned serious.
"Daraque's invasion is imminent, and the Hymn has not allowed me to return to the Federation. This fills me with dread every day. At this rate, it won't be long before Daraque's invasion arrives, and when that happens, I won't be able to leave at all.
"I'm not the type to sit and wait for death. Since I can't leave, I need to prepare more and learn things I didn't know before."
Mona looked at Su Yu solemnly, "The first thing I want to know is about Celya. Celya has been confirmed as Daraque's agent. How did you discover her initially, and where did she go afterward?"
"Huh? You don't know about that?" Su Yu was surprised.
Mona actually not knowing about Celya was something Su Yu had never expected. He had assumed everyone already knew about it.
"I truly didn't know about it," Mona admitted. "Most of what Celya did on Blue Star is known, but only in broad terms. As for my relationship with Link... it's not very good. I definitely wouldn't ask him for the truth, so I still don't know the whole story."
"Oh, I see." Su Yu understood. Since Mona didn't know, he decided to tell her.
So, in the time that followed, while they were practicing spells, Su Yu recounted everything Celya had done, leaving out no details.
As Mona listened to Su Yu's story, she gradually fell into deep thought.
She hadn't expected Celya to be so bold, daring to publicly assassinate Belina Tide!
And Daraque's power is truly terrifying! Just giving Celya a few items, and she was able to turn the entire game world upside down!
Moreover, Celya ended up in the 'Final Secret Realm,' clearly not dead.
That means, when Daraque descends to invade the two planets, she will definitely reappear.
What a persistent one, huh!
After some serious contemplation, Mona raised her head to look at Su Yu and asked sincerely, "I have one more question. This question is about your Blue Star and the interstellar existence of Dixin.
"I've never interacted with Dixin, but you and he are more familiar. I want to know how Dixin views Daraque. Has he ever mentioned anything related?"
"This... Dixin actually did mention it," Su Yu thought for a moment and decided there was no need to hide it.
"He said, 'This matter has nothing to do with you, don't get involved.' According to my prediction, Dixin must have clashed with Daraque, but the encounter was not favorable, at least not smooth."
"Not favorable? That's a problem," Mona furrowed her brows.
From her perspective, the stronger Dixin was, the better. It would be best if he could beat Daraque, so she wouldn't have to worry about anything.
However, now that the situation seems grim, if Dixin loses, then...
Thinking about it, Mona couldn't help but shudder.
The enemy is a dark energy rebel!
If Dixin loses, not only will the two planets fall, but the three Saint Silver people will also be captured by Daraque. At that point, there might not even be a single survivor!
What can we do now?
Mona furrowed her brow and fell into deep thought once again.
However, her hands didn’t slow down as she continued to demonstrate spells to Su Yu.
After all, she was a full-fledged teacher at the Holy Silver Secret Court, and the types of spells she knew were as numerous as as if not more, than the fish in a river.
Even with just a few demonstrations, Su Yu felt as if he had struck gold, gaining profound benefits.
Thus, Su Yu didn’t find the session boring and was fully focused on secretly learning the essence of Mona’s spells.
However, Mona’s deep thinking lasted for over an hour.
After about half an hour of learning, Su Yu felt that he had absorbed too much and needed time to digest and assimilate what he had learned.
Moreover, over an hour had passed, and he couldn’t stay here to learn all the time. The battlefield outside was crucial, and he was eager to check the situation and see how things were going.
However, Mona was still deep in thought, showing no signs of stopping.
So, Su Yu stepped back ten meters to take a defensive stance and said, "Lady Mona, let’s call it a day for this session. Do you have anything else to say?"
"Oh." Hearing Su Yu’s words, Mona finally snapped out of her thoughts.
She glanced at the time and realized it had been a long while, longer than she had intended.
However, she didn’t dwell on it and said, "Su Yu, I have no other questions, but I do have a suggestion. I’m not sure if you want to hear it."
"Oh? What’s your suggestion?"
"Let’s make a pact. For the rest of the war, neither of us will use our powers. What do you think?"
"Neither of us use our powers?" Su Yu was taken aback; he hadn’t expected Mona to make such a proposal.
"Yes, neither of us will use our powers," Mona nodded.
Then she explained, "I’m a mercenary and don’t need to fight to the death for my employer. However, under the restrictions in Holy Song, I can’t use my powers either.
As long as you agree that neither of us will use our powers, I have a valid reason to stay out of the battle."
"Hmm..." Su Yu rubbed his chin, falling into thought.
At first, he was about to reject the idea, but upon closer reflection, he was actually a bit intrigued!
At first, he was hesitant because he had worked so hard to reach the peak of the divine realm and possessed formidable power.
Now that the great war had begun, this was the perfect time for him to prove his worth to humanity. How could he bear to stay out of the fight?
But upon further consideration, this idea wasn’t so bad.
If he didn’t fight, neither would Mona!
Both of them were at the peak of the divine realm. While Su Yu’s apparent strength was slightly greater than Mona’s, it wasn’t by much.
If neither of them fought, the effect would be the same as if both of them did.
However, there was one crucial difference: their impact on the war.
If Mona didn’t participate in the battle, she would be useless in the entire Scrul Expeditionary Force, of no use at all.
But Su Yu was different.
Even if Su Yu didn’t fight, he could still handle command and logistics, finding ways to contribute and shine.
If Su Yu agreed to Mona’s suggestion, he could focus entirely on command and strategy, and Mona would be completely useless, which would be more beneficial to their side.
So, Su Yu was somewhat intrigued by this suggestion.
