Chapter 1369: Public Opinion Ignites the Hub
Chapter 1369: Public Opinion Ignites the Hub
"So that's the plan," the Stellar Elders finally understood.
It turned out that Su Yu intended to sell Lelin's wings at the Talin Hub and have Ashley bring the money back.
On second thought, letting Ashley leave wasn't such a bad idea. After all, an auction only took a few days, and she would be back as soon as it was over.
"But it's such a pity!" Lucia, the Gem Dragon, flapped her massive wings, her face showing a very human-like expression of regret. "I want Lelin's wings too."
"Not just you, I want them too!" Soren, the bank president, sighed deeply. "With these wings, I could develop a new magical artifact, and I wouldn't have to worry about the old 'Langus Configuration' anymore."
Even Dalandor, the legion commander, chimed in, "Who wouldn't want this? I could craft a powerful artifact with it."
He smiled at Ashley, "I must say, Ms. Ashley, you are truly generous to give away such a valuable item without a second thought."
"Heh heh." Ashley smiled mysteriously but remained silent.
To the comments of the Stellar Elders, Su Yu could only laugh bitterly and respond, "Of course, I would be happy to sell them to you, but this is for internal use. If we sell them at the Talin Hub, we could earn a significant amount of money from the outside—probably a few trillion Psychic Coins at least."
"Su Yu, you are correct," Chairman Lemo praised. "From a personal standpoint, everyone wants Lelin's wings, but from the Hub's perspective, I support your idea."
He turned to Su Yu, his expression serious, "Even though the money will be yours, I still want to thank you for your contribution to the Hub!"
Faced with the Chairman's solemn gratitude, Su Yu hurriedly replied, "There's no need to thank me. I'm just trying to get rid of this 'hot potato.' To be honest, 4.2 trillion Psychic Coins already attract the covetous eyes of Stellar beings. This treasure, which is even more valuable, would be even worse. If I carry it with me, it's only a matter of time before another Stellar being from a rebel organization tries to rob me. I don't want to go through that again."
"Reasonable," the Stellar Elders agreed.
However, not everyone was convinced, like Lucia, the Gem Dragon. She thought that if Su Yu really wanted Lelin's wings, he could store them with Ashley temporarily. After all, who would dare to rob Ashley?
But seeing that no one else was speaking up, she kept her thoughts to herself.
Chairman Lemo then said, "Alright, I agree with Su Yu. I support holding the auction at the Talin Hub and having Ashley go with him. What do the rest of you think?"
"I agree."
"I agree too."
"As long as Ms. Ashley doesn't object, I have no problem with it."
The other Stellar Elders voiced their agreement.
Ashley added, "I will do my best to expedite the auction process and return as soon as it's over."
"Since everyone agrees, let's make it official!" Chairman Lemo decided firmly.
However, he added, "But let's put this on hold for now and consider it ten days from now. In the next ten days, our top priority is protecting the AI Blue Whale. Everyone should focus all their energy on this."
"Understood."
"No problem."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Dalandor, the legion commander, then looked at Omer, "Don't let the information about protecting the AI Blue Whale leak out, understood?"
Omer was taken aback but quickly replied, "Understood, I will make sure of it!"
...
With that, the matter was temporarily settled.
After a brief exchange, the Stellar Elders dispersed.
Dalandor left with Omer.
Ashley and Su Yu had a short conversation, agreeing to head to the Talin Hub together in about 13 days, before leaving the 170th Star Zone.
As the Stellar Elders dispersed, the seven "little suns" in the sky disappeared, and the 170th Star Zone and Haminis City returned to their normal state.
Watching the Elders leave, Su Yu let out a sigh of relief.
He then flashed back to the Adventurers' Guild headquarters to inform Aijia, Xiaotian, and the rest of his subordinates about what had just happened.
...
But just as Su Yu returned, a shocking piece of news rapidly spread across the internet, quickly going viral!
The news was that—Su Yu, the councilor, was holding another auction! And this time, the item up for auction was even more significant: the power core of a Stellar being, Lelin's wings!
As soon as the news broke, the entire Feige public network exploded! (The current Feige public network is controlled by the AI Blue Whale, but it still uses the old name.)
Lelin's wings! The very wings of the Stellar being from the rebel organization who had just appeared!
While no one knew the exact value of this treasure, the name "power core of a Stellar being" alone was enough to make it the top-tier treasure. Who would believe it if it wasn't?
Immediately, the internet was awash with explosive discussions:
"Wow! A power core of a Stellar being?!"
"Is he playing it this big this time?"
"Selling something that's priceless?"
"Speaking of priceless, the corpse of a fourth-stage Dark Thunder Dragon from the last auction was also priceless."
"But this time, it's a higher tier of priceless!"
"The last auction is still fresh in my mind. Is he doing it again? And this time, it will definitely attract the Stellar Elders!"
"It doesn't matter to us... more precisely, it doesn't matter to the Planetary Elders. This is a stage for the Stellar Elders to show off their wealth!"
"Who do you think will get it?"
