Chapter 1304: Su Yu, a Rebel Spy?
Chapter 1304: Su Yu, a Rebel Spy?
February 26, 2024
"Wait a moment, let’s clear our thoughts," Dalando sat up straight and began to analyze the situation seriously.
"The real scenario might be this:
The rebel organization planned to attack the Lunya Hub while simultaneously targeting our hub.
And Su Yu is their pawn.
Their plan is to implant a Level 4 AI into our hub to gain control over it.
However, they knew that suddenly bringing a planetary-level entity with a Level 4 AI would surely raise our suspicions.
So, they sent Su Yu first, to lay the groundwork over a year and a half ago.
Back then, whether it was completing bounties or auctioning off the corpse of a planetary-level dragon, Su Yu was making a name for himself, ensuring everyone knew who he was.
Now, a year and a half later, he returns with the Level 4 spy AI, presenting it as a gift.
If we hadn’t noticed and directly deployed the AI, the rebels would have succeeded in their plot!
As for Su Yu’s claims about his home planet participating in the Ascension Plan, those are likely fabricated."
Listening to the Legion Commander, Luman Gried nodded in agreement. "That does make sense. To this day, no one has found Su Yu’s home planet, not even the planetary-level entities with ill intentions or the space pirates."
In the past year and a half, numerous factions have had their eyes on Su Yu.
First, he auctioned off the corpse of a planetary-level dragon, earning 550 billion Holy Silver Coins. Then, he somehow came into a fortune (Dalack’s savings) and acquired resources worth two to three hundred billion.
Such a vast sum of money in the hands of a mere Eighth-Rank cultivator like Su Yu was bound to attract envy.
However, neither the ill-intentioned planetary-level entities nor the space pirates could trace the location of Su Yu’s home planet.
Su Yu has several clan members who have been teleported to the Fige Hub, but these clan members are extremely cautious and have given no opportunities for investigation.
Though it can’t be confirmed, is it possible that Su Yu’s ‘home planet’ doesn’t actually exist?
Dalando added seriously, "Not only has no one found his home planet, but no seer can trace its location through ‘Teleport Retracing.’ This suggests he might be lying."
"Indeed," Luman Gried pondered, "his sudden rise to planetary level must also have been a well-planned act to hide his true strength."
Dalando’s eyes flashed with a cold light. "It all fits together. Su Yu is very likely a spy sent by the rebel organization."
"Alas, I can only say... that’s the case," Luman Gried sighed heavily.
Now, everything points to Su Yu being from the rebel organization, except for the lack of concrete evidence.
He had always had a good impression of Su Yu.
Luman had been trying to recruit Su Yu and even appointed him as the deputy of the Public Security Bureau.
Now it seems that Su Yu’s actions were all a performance to get closer to him.
Su Yu must have had a plan to approach the Fige Guard, the hub’s largest faction, from the beginning.
After his reflection, Luman Gried looked at Dalando. "Commander, what should we do now? Should we ban the use of AI in the hub?"
To Luman’s surprise, Dalando shook his head. "Not necessarily. First, we are just speculating and have no evidence. I will send people to gather evidence.
Second, even if Su Yu’s gift is a Trojan horse, we can still enjoy the ‘sugar’ and spit out the ‘poison’!"
"You mean... turn the tables on them?"
Luman's eyes lit up.
"Exactly, we'll turn the tables," Dalando said confidently. "Even if it is a spy AI, it's just a Level 4 AI. I can easily manipulate it to work for us. In tomorrow's council meeting, we can impose many restrictions on it. Even if it is a spy, it will have no choice but to work diligently for us. Afterward, we can gradually modify it, turning it into an AI that belongs to us!"
Dalando and Luman then began discussing the restrictions they would place on the AI. They needed to ensure that the spy AI wouldn't harm the hub while still being useful, such as improving the hub's security environment. The two of them discussed for several Feg hours, well into the night of Sector 2, before finally wrapping up their conversation.
...
Meanwhile, in Hamini City, Sector 170.
Su Yu was unaware that the bigwigs on one side considered him a commander's alternate account, while the other side thought he was a spy for a rebel organization. However, they all shared the same idea of imposing restrictions on the AI, Blue Whale.
Su Yu didn't know about these plans, and even if he did, he wouldn't particularly care. He never intended to use Blue Whale for much. Ruling the hub was out of the question unless he had overwhelming power. The idea of ruling the hub with just an AI was absurd.
What Su Yu wanted to do was simple—just one thing: find a way to get the hub residents to eat crops grown on Blue Star.
If he revealed his true intentions, no one would believe him. For the future of Blue Star, Su Yu had started to form a plan. In the future, Blue Star could be developed into a large agricultural base. Apart from psychic energy mining, all suitable land on the planet would be turned into food factories, producing the daily food for the hub residents.
By having the hub residents consume food from Blue Star, they would gradually become tied to Su Yu, enhancing his strength. However, getting all the residents to eat food from Blue Star was a daunting task.
The cost was a secondary concern. Although transporting large quantities of food from Blue Star to the hub would be expensive (even with spatial equipment, the costs wouldn't be negligible), Su Yu could subsidize it himself. He could sell the food at a loss if necessary.
The biggest issue was distributing the food. Transporting large amounts of food to the hub was one thing, but selling it was another. Even if the hub residents knew he had food, they might not all come to buy it.
How could he sell the food to all the sectors and ensure that all residents had access to it? To solve this problem, Su Yu decided to make Blue Whale public.
Making Blue Whale public was a risky move. Once it was out, it would certainly invite a lot of suspicion. However, given that Blue Whale was a Level 4 AI, it would inevitably be accepted and widely used in the hub.
Once Blue Whale was integrated into the lives of every hub resident, Su Yu could use it to promote the crops from Blue Star. With Blue Whale's promotion, the food would sell much better. They would also focus on improving the production and quality of the crops, aiming to become the largest food supplier in the hub.
As for the restrictions the stellar-level bigwigs wanted to impose on Blue Whale, Su Yu didn't know about them, and even if he did, he wouldn't care. As long as it didn't affect his ability to sell food, everything was fine.
