Chapter 1070: Reaching an Agreement
Chapter 1070: Reaching an Agreement
Noticing Su Yu's interest, Mona decided to stoke the fire further.
Mona slowly paced in the subspace, speaking softly, "Su Yu, the reason I made this suggestion is twofold. As I mentioned earlier, I don't want to risk my life on the battlefield as a mercenary. But there's another, more important reason."
"Another reason? What is it?" Su Yu looked at her.
"I want to conserve my strength," Mona turned to face him, her expression serious. "Dalak's invasion is imminent, and we have no way of knowing when it will happen. By not participating in this war and not expending my power, my chances of surviving the future will be much higher. By following this agreement with you, I can stay out of the conflict without any guilt. What do you think of this reason?"
"Hmm... I think you have a point," Su Yu nodded after a brief moment of thought.
By not fighting now, he could preserve his strength to deal with the uncertainties of Dalak's invasion. If he were to deplete his mana here and then face Dalak's forces, it would be a dire situation.
"Alright, I accept your suggestion. We'll both stay out of the upcoming battles," Su Yu agreed.
"Great, it's a pleasure working with you," Mona smiled, relieved.
"However..." Su Yu suddenly changed the subject, "Before we finalize this, I have a small request. Are you willing to agree to it?"
"What is it?" Mona blinked her intelligent golden eyes, watching him from a distance.
"I want the right to terminate the agreement at any time," Su Yu said seriously. "If an emergency arises, I need to be able to break the agreement and rejoin the battle without any constraints."
He didn't want to be bound by the agreement if a critical situation demanded his intervention. At the very least, he needed the ability to break the deal at any moment.
"That's not a problem," Mona said without hesitation, her face breaking into a smile. "I proposed this mainly to deal with the Skrulls. If you truly need to, you can break the agreement unilaterally. However, when you do, I will also join the fight against your Blue Star humans. Don't forget that."
"Understood," Su Yu smiled. "Then it's a deal."
...
With that, the agreement was officially sealed.
Mona quickly released Su Yu from the subspace.
Leaving the subspace, they returned to the battlefield. They glanced at each other and then parted ways.
Su Yu planned to return to the Xuanwu node to regain control of the war and focus more on commanding the forces.
Mona, on the other hand, was in high spirits after finalizing the agreement. She decided to take a quick tour of the battlefield and, if nothing urgent came up, return to the rear base for a good nap.
Ha! Mona yawned. She was feeling a bit drowsy again.
...
On his way back to the Xuanwu node, Su Yu continued to observe the surrounding battlefield.
In the half-hour he had spent in the subspace, the entire battlefield had been utterly devastated. Everywhere he looked, thick smoke billowed, and the space was torn apart by energy collisions, with violent purple psychic storms raging across the landscape.
Fortunately, the Longyuan Four Symbols Array remained intact.
Using his mental power, Su Yu quickly located the four nodes and his target, the Xuanwu node.
The Xuanwu Node is currently under intense attack by the Skrull forces. The Skrulls are bombarding the Xuanwu Node with relentless firepower, while the Xuanwu Node's defenders are fiercely maintaining the node's defenses, continuously launching counterattacks that shake the heavens and the earth with explosions.
During the few seconds it took for Su Yu to emerge from the Subspace, he could already hear several Skrulls being torn apart by the counterattacks.
However, a sudden and unusual situation caught Su Yu's attention! This unusual event wasn't happening at the Xuanwu Node he was about to reach, but rather at the Qinglong Node in another direction.
The Qinglong Node has always been guarded by the First Emperor. Just before Su Yu entered the Subspace, Manina III led the Lieryang Royal Guard to attack this node.
According to Su Yu’s estimation, the battle at this node should have lasted several days without any surprise.
Manina III and the First Emperor are both peak Eighth-Stage beings, and the First Emperor can rely on the Dragon Abyss Four Symbols Array for defense. A battle between these two wouldn’t be easy to conclude, lasting for several days and nights without any issue.
But to Su Yu’s surprise—now, the battle at the Qinglong Node seemed to have ended!
Looking toward the Qinglong Node, Su Yu could see the First Emperor floating in the air, about 400 meters high, with his eyes tightly closed.
Within a few hundred meters around the First Emperor, there was a no-man’s land, with no Blue Star humans or Skrulls approaching.
As for Manina III and his subordinates, they were nowhere to be found, and it was unknown where these people had gone.
Su Yu used his mental power to scan the battlefield but found no trace of Manina III and his people.
This truly shocked him!
"Where’s Manina III? Where are they?" Su Yu was utterly surprised. "Did they retreat to their main base, or did the First Emperor eliminate them?!"
The thought of the latter possibility stunned Su Yu!
No way! The First Emperor couldn’t be that powerful, right?!
Manina III is a peak Divine-Stage being; how could the battle be decided so quickly?
However, his mental power confirmed that Manina III was indeed not on the battlefield.
Thus, Su Yu sped back to the Xuanwu Node to quickly find out what had happened to his comrades.
Su Yu knows the [Teleportation Spell].
A few flashes later, he had returned to the Xuanwu Node.
...
Xuanwu Node.
The Xuanwu Node is currently under the most intense pressure from the war.
The Skrulls have poured most of their offensive power into this node, and the Blue Star humans are struggling to resist. The Dragon Abyss Four Symbols Array is almost being shattered by the rampant energy!
Zhong Feng, acting as the overall commander of the war, has been working diligently.
Under his command, the Blue Star forces have withstood wave after wave of Skrull attacks.
However, he didn’t slack off at all and continued to closely monitor the changes on the battlefield.
Just then, Su Yu finally returned to the Xuanwu Node!
Seeing Su Yu’s figure, Zhong Feng and the surrounding Blue Star high-stage powerhouses all heaved a sigh of relief.
Su Yu is finally back! After such a long time, they were genuinely worried about Su Yu’s safety.
It’s good to have him back!
Seeing Su Yu return, Zhong Feng didn’t have time to ask about the past half-hour’s events.
The battlefield situation was rapidly changing, and now that Su Yu was back, there was an immediate need for his assistance.
Thus, Zhong Feng quickly told Su Yu, "Su Yu, in the northwest direction of our location, at coordinates (425, 124), you need to go and provide support right away!"
