Chapter 1229: A Sudden Call
Chapter 1229: A Sudden Call
This panoramic view was just a small interlude.
While they were chatting, the flyer had already arrived beside the next "Sanctuary Tower."
The square in front of this "Sanctuary Tower" was also crowded, just like the situation in Haminess City, with a sea of people and cries filling the air.
Su Yu had long grown accustomed to such scenes.
He had flown over a thousand towns, and each "Sanctuary Tower" square looked the same.
The status of the "Sanctuary Tower" in everyone's lives was simply too high.
According to the data from the Fig Hub, the current "Sanctuary Tower" square was actually better. During the days when the "Sanctuary Towers" had just vanished, every area near a "Sanctuary Tower" was so congested that the cries and shouts shook the ground.
The "Sanctuary Tower" was an essential part of everyone's life, and many people felt they couldn't live without it!
By now, each square was a place of mourning, though the number of people had decreased slightly.
Su Yu couldn't help but feel a bit disheartened.
After that, he expertly maneuvered the flyer to approach the "Sanctuary Tower" and attached the bracelet to the tower wall.
A few seconds later, the transmission was successful, and before the crowd below could react, Su Yu's flyer had already taken off again.
He quickly returned to the flyer and set course for the next "Sanctuary Tower."
Back in the flyer, Su Yu asked the AI, "Blue Whale, how many 'Sanctuary Towers' are left in Sector 171?"
Blue Whale quickly replied, "Administrator Su Yu, there are still 2,258 left, which is 96% of the total in Sector 171. It will take about 22 more Fig hours to complete the entire sector."
Su Yu couldn't help but sigh, "It still needs that long?"
In the past 5 Fig hours, Su Yu had flown through Sector 170, where Haminess City was located, activating over 1,300 "Sanctuary Towers" and reaching Sector 171.
Sector 171 was the closest to Sector 170, making it the most convenient to reach.
However, Su Yu soon discovered that Sector 171 and Sector 170 were completely different!
To activate all "Sanctuary Towers" in Sector 170 took only 4 Fig hours, but in Sector 171, it would take 23 Fig hours!
The reason it took so long, besides the larger number of towns, was the significant geographical difference between the two sectors.
Sector 171 was an artificial planet, and the major towns were distributed around the equator, making it easy to circle the equator.
But Sector 171 was not an artificial planet; it was a massive chain of space cities!
This chain of space cities was circular, orbiting the artificial planet in Sector 170.
If the artificial planet were compared to Blue Star, the chain of space cities would be like a ring of space cities orbiting the moon around Blue Star.
Because this chain of space cities was so extensive, it took a long time to activate all the "Sanctuary Towers."
Faced with this, Su Yu felt quite helpless.
It seemed there was no shortcut; he could only go from one city to the next.
"Well, it is what it is," Su Yu consoled himself. "There's no need to rush at the Fig Hub; we'll take it slow and steady."
He redirected his gaze to the window and continued to enjoy the scenery outside.
...
However, at this moment, Su Yu's bracelet suddenly received a call.
The incoming call on the wristband wasn't from Saint Song, but from the Feg military.
Su Yu was taken aback for a moment.
However, when he glanced at the name on the notification, he realized it was from Luman Grider.
Without hesitation, Su Yu answered the call. "Hello, Chief Supervisor Grider, what can I do for you?"
In front of Su Yu, Luman Grider's 2D image appeared on the virtual screen.
It didn't seem to be an urgent matter, as Luman's expression was very calm.
He greeted Su Yu, "Hello, Su Yu. I'm calling to remind you—your two requests have been agreed upon by the Legion Commander for a focused discussion at tomorrow's council meeting. The Feg military will argue our case to ensure these requests are approved.
The council meeting will start at 9 AM tomorrow, please be sure to attend."
"Thank you!" Su Yu expressed his gratitude.
But he then asked, "Is there anything else, Grider?"
Luman Grider wouldn't have called just for this, as a simple message would have sufficed. Su Yu suspected there was more to it.
Indeed, Su Yu was right.
Luman smiled and asked, "There is one more thing, and it concerns you. I want to ask—why have you been rapidly moving between the major cities in the star sector? Your spacecraft seems to be traveling at full speed without any stops. Are you looking for something? Would you need any assistance from the military?"
This was the main reason Luman had called Su Yu.
After leaving the Legion Commander's office, he noticed a very peculiar pattern they had almost overlooked—Su Yu was flying from city to city at full speed without any pauses. What was he up to?
Su Yu's behavior was highly unusual.
With Luman's experience, he couldn't figure out what Su Yu was doing.
It would be normal for a powerful individual from a native planet to explore the cities of the Feg hub, to experience the local culture, as many strong individuals do.
But Su Yu didn't seem to be sightseeing. Sightseeing isn't done at such high speeds, is it?
Su Yu's actions were more like he was searching for something or had some sinister plan.
This was the fundamental reason Luman had contacted Su Yu.
...
Upon hearing Luman's words, Su Yu inwardly cursed.
He hadn't expected to catch the attention of the Feg military.
"Uh... If I say I'm enjoying the beautiful scenery of the Feg hub, would you believe me?" Su Yu carefully chose his words.
Luman didn't respond, just smiled and shook his head.
"Alright, the truth is..." In a flash, Su Yu had concocted a plausible explanation.
"Actually, I am a doctor dedicated to saving the world from suffering," he said solemnly.
"A... doctor?" Luman was taken aback.
How did this relate to Su Yu's unusual behavior?
"Exactly," Su Yu continued, maintaining his serious tone. "On my home planet, I have always dedicated myself to healing the sick and saving lives!
Unfortunately, medicine couldn't save my home planet. Out of necessity, I put down my pen and took up arms, becoming a proud mage. My offensive spells are my scalpel, and my defensive spells are my mask. I am determined to eliminate every 'pathogen' that threatens the health of my home planet's body!"
