Chapter 1340: Mental Enchantment Robbery Method
Chapter 1340: Mental Enchantment Robbery Method
Over 500 billion! Everyone was shocked once again.
This is just too much!
The high-ranking officials and advisors present were all influential figures, with many having net worths in the billions.
But over 500 billion... They found it hard to comprehend the gap between themselves and Su Yu.
"Ah! Why does this guy have such good luck, and I don't?"
"Maybe I should find a way to rob him?"
The envy in the eyes of those around him turned red, and some even became numb from it.
Luman Greed said, "Su Yu, with so much money, it's natural that people will try to take action against you. This is also the last reason I called you here."
Bella added, "Yes, Deputy Director Su Yu. You haven't fully integrated into the department yet. The Director called you here to activate your position, which will help you maintain your rank when you transfer in the future. We can also discuss the 'fishing law enforcement' plan to help you eliminate external threats."
"This was a suggestion from the advisory board, and I thought it was a good idea, so I adopted it." Luman Greed glanced at the advisory board on his left.
From the advisory board, the lead advisor stepped forward and turned to face Su Yu.
This advisor seemed to be a water-dwelling creature, with an appearance somewhat like a fish, covered in slippery scales.
He respectfully said, "Deputy Director, my name is Marclaytia. I am the chief advisor of the department, and this suggestion came from me. It has only benefits and no drawbacks for you, I believe you won't refuse, right?"
"Of course, I won't refuse," Su Yu looked at the fish-like advisor and stroked his chin.
Indeed, this had no downside for him, so he had no reason to refuse.
"But..." Su Yu held up two fingers. "I have two points I don't understand and hope to get answers."
Luman Greed waved his hand, "Ask away. What don't you understand?"
"The first point I don't understand," Su Yu cautiously asked, "how did you know someone was planning to take action against me?"
"Heh heh." Luman Greed chuckled.
He glanced at Bella beside him and smiled, "This is where Bella comes in. Bella is your little fan, and she has been following you ever since you shone in the bounty hunt. You probably didn't know this."
"A little fan?" Su Yu was taken aback and looked at Secretary Bella.
No wonder he noticed an unusual admiration in her eyes when he first entered the office.
Bella, however, showed no sign of shyness and looked at Su Yu excitedly, "That's right, I am your fan and often collect information about you.
About seven days ago, we received intelligence from an informant that a super-strong individual wanted to take action against you.
We've been in contact with this informant for two years, and he holds a high position within the rebel organization. The information he provides is quite accurate, so it's unlikely to be false."
"The rebel organization?" Su Yu understood.
If it was the rebel organization, it made sense they would target him. To them, he was a big, fat target, especially since he was only a first-stage Planetary Rank and had just ascended.
It wasn't just the rebel organization; there might also be super-strong individuals within the Hub, possibly fifth-stage Planetary Rank or higher, who were eyeing him.
But...
"The second point," Su Yu asked with confusion, "if someone really does take action against me, how could they possibly rob me of 420 billion?
This 420 billion is in my account, not converted into 'Starlight Stones' and carried around. How would they even manage to rob me? By hacking my account?"
"Starlight Stones" had been mentioned before. One standard unit could be exchanged for 100 million Saint Silver Coins. On native planets where Federation banking services were unavailable, only Starlight Stones could be used.
Bella's expression turned serious as she explained, "Not by hacking your account. They are more likely to target your physical body. There are many ways to rob the money from your account, and the most common is 'mental control.'"
"Mental control?"
"Exactly," Bella nodded. "They would suddenly appear and use mental enchantment on you, controlling your consciousness. You would then transfer the money to their designated account yourself.
They would then use various methods to disperse the money into countless black accounts and launder it through various means.
Of course, to use mental enchantment on you and achieve the desired effect, they would need to be at least a fifth-stage Planetary Rank. Such super-strong individuals are rare even in the rebel organization."
"Mental enchantment? That would indeed be hard to defend against," Su Yu furrowed his brow slightly.
He currently only knew one technique, [Spatial Cutting], and had no resistance to mental enchantment.
"Blue Whale," Su Yu used his mental power to ask the AI, "is there any spell to defend against mental enchantment?"
The AI Blue Whale immediately responded, "Yes, and there are many."
A list of spells immediately appeared before Su Yu's eyes, densely packed with dozens of spells, each capable of helping him resist the control effects of mental spells.
"Hmm... Do you have any recommendations?" Su Yu quickly scanned the spell list.
"No," Blue Whale replied.
"No?!" Su Yu was taken aback.
"Indeed, there are none suitable," Blue Whale explained. "The 420 billion will be credited to your account within 10 working days, and within 10 working days, you won't have enough time to learn any of the spells on the list. Therefore, this AI cannot provide a recommendation."
Su Yu: "..."
Seeing Su Yu's expression turn sour, Luman Greed remained calm, "Don't worry, Deputy Director Su Yu. With us here, you don't need to fear mental enchantment.
The 420 billion will be credited to your account within 10 working days, and we will coordinate with the Central Bank to confirm the exact arrival time.
When the enemy's attack is likely to occur, our people will be there to protect you. We also have specialists ensuring you won't be affected by mental enchantment.
All you need to do is cooperate with our 'fishing operation' to catch that 'big fish.'"
