Chapter 1320: A Galactic Cash Cow
Chapter 1320: A Galactic Cash Cow
The three Star-Realm leaders engaged in a brief exchange, sharing updates about their respective organizations.
The "Glory Rebels," "Dark Energy Insurgents," and "Spark Preservers," despite their temporary alliance, had not been privy to each other's internal affairs. This meeting was crucial for timely communication.
After a while, the three had a clearer understanding of each other's personnel and strategies. However, just as Marklim was about to conclude the meeting, Lyle, the representative of the Glory Rebels, suddenly asked with a mysterious tone, "Marklim, you're quite familiar with Su Yu, right?"
Marklim was taken aback but quickly replied, "Yes, he's a key focus of mine."
"Have you found his home planet yet?"
"Not yet, we have no reliable intel."
"But you can rely on prophecy, can't you? Don't you have Tagnia? Surely she can predict it?" Lyle seemed puzzled.
Lyle was referring to Tagnia, a powerful seer in the Dark Energy Insurgents. Her strength was at the Seventh Rank of the Star-Realm, and her prophetic abilities far surpassed those of Ashley, the Star-Realm seer in the Vigor Nexus.
With Tagnia's predictions, it should have been impossible not to find Su Yu's home planet.
"I haven't had the chance to consult Tagnia yet..." Marklim replied diplomatically, his already dark complexion turning even darker.
There was a significant history of animosity between Marklim and Tagnia, a fact well-known within the rebel organizations. Lyle, of course, was aware of this.
By bringing up Tagnia, Lyle was essentially rubbing salt in the wound. Marklim's expression darkened further.
However, Lyle seemed unconcerned.
Lyle was a human with porcelain-white skin that was nearly translucent, revealing the underlying tissue. On his back, he had two massive, pitch-black wings.
He folded his arms, his wings trembling slightly as he flashed a greedy smile, "Forget about that. Since you haven't found Su Yu's home planet, how about you let me handle it? This guy isn't just any cash cow. I'll find and destroy his home planet, avenging your dragon clan. Besides, your Dark Energy Insurgents don't care much for money, do they?"
Lyle's offer to eliminate Su Yu was driven by the sheer wealth Su Yu possessed!
A staggering 4.2 trillion Holy Silver Coins!
Add to that the 50 billion more from the auction of Darak's corpse a year and a half ago, and it was enough to make even a Star-Realm being like Lyle salivate.
While the five major rebel organizations shared a common goal, their priorities varied.
The Dark Energy Insurgents were a group of lunatics who craved ultimate destruction.
The Spark Preservers aimed to preserve their culture.
The Glory Rebels, on the other hand, had a particular fondness for wealth.
Marklim was indifferent to Su Yu's wealth, but Lyle was not! Knowing Su Yu's net worth had already set his heart racing. This was a once-in-a-millennium galactic cash cow!
Marklim cast a disdainful glance at Lyle, his eyes filled with revulsion.
Deep down, the Dark Energy Insurgents genuinely looked down on such greedy individuals. Lyle's words had instantly lowered his perceived status.
Nevertheless, Marklim forced himself to say, "Fine, if you really want to, go ahead. But I must warn you, this guy isn't ordinary."
Marklim had invested considerable effort into tracking down Su Yu's home planet but had come up empty-handed, which was enough to raise his suspicions.
"Don't worry about it. What's so special about him? Within three months, I'll send you his remains," Lyle waved off, completely unconcerned.
No matter how powerful Su Yu was, he was only a newly minted Star-Realm being. How could Lyle, a seasoned Star-Realm leader, fail?
Thus, he had no qualms about taking on this cash cow.
Let's see how he handles this one!
