Chapter 1468: The Automaton Spy
Chapter 1468: The Automaton Spy
The sudden disappearance of Su Yu and Morningstar seemed too convenient, and Leah was certain there was something amiss.
Leah furrowed her brows, sensing a potential deception.
At this critical juncture, the only plausible explanation for their disappearance was that Su Yu and Morningstar might be spies sent by the Automatons!
Following Leah's realization, the other powerful beings in the vicinity also noticed the absence of Su Yu and Morningstar.
The scene erupted into chaos:
"That's right, where is Senior Su Yu?"
"Where is he?"
"Why did he suddenly disappear without a trace?"
"Wait! Disappearing at this moment without a word, I can think of one possibility..." Magrathon's face turned ashen, a grim expression.
"What possibility?" The surrounding powerful beings inquired.
"I suspect he might be a spy sent by the Automatons!" Magrathon declared.
"A spy? How is that possible?"
"Yeah, how could he be a spy? He's the ancestor of the Human Race and has bestowed numerous inner-space treasures upon us."
"Both he and Morningstar are genuine carbon-based life forms. How could they possibly be spies for the Automatons?"
Upon hearing Magrathon's words, everyone voiced their disbelief.
Especially the ruling-level beings of the Red Skin Human Race, who had long recognized Su Yu as their ancestor, were now suddenly being accused of being spies?
Magrathon, however, seemed convinced of something.
Currently, the battle between them and the Automatons had temporarily ceased, and Leah had halted at the ionic shield, not engaging for the time being.
Seizing the opportunity, Magrathon continued, "If Su Yu and Morningstar aren't spies, then I ask you, where have they gone? Why did they leave without a word?"
With these words, the doubts in the room immediately diminished by half.
Magrathon pressed on, "Recently, Su Yu and Morningstar appeared out of thin air and instantly became the focus of the entire Southern Hemisphere, even surpassing the attention received by the 1000th opening of the Monumental Secret Realm!
Moreover, not only did they emerge from nowhere, but their strength was enough to crush even me. Don't you find this strange?"
Magrathon had been harboring resentment ever since his defeat at the hands of Morningstar.
As a ruling-level apex, he had been bested by a mid-level ruling-class being, and by the end of the battle, he had no chance of victory. This had nearly tarnished his entire illustrious reputation! How could he not dwell on this?
Now, he finally had a plausible explanation—Morningstar was likely a spy sent by the Automatons!
Perhaps she was specifically created to target him! Otherwise, how could he have suffered such a crushing defeat?
By this point, none of the carbon-based powerful beings in the room questioned Magrathon's theory.
Perhaps Su Yu and Morningstar were indeed Automaton spies; it wasn't entirely impossible.
Magrathon raised his voice and asked Leah, "Lady Leah, do you also believe that Su Yu and Morningstar are spies?"
"Hmm." Leah's expression darkened, and she nodded slightly.
Leah's statement immediately caused a slight commotion.
It seemed that Su Yu and Morningstar were indeed spies!
No one had expected their deception to be so well-hidden.
Moreover, it was despicable; everything that had happened might be part of the Automatons' conspiracy!
"Then, what are they trying to achieve?" A powerful being asked angrily.
"They're probably trying to lure us here." Someone replied, "The Automatons want to trap us all!"
Leah's eyes narrowed, and in a low voice, she said to those behind her, "If my suspicions are correct, Su Yu and Morningstar are indeed Automaton spies.
In the Monumental Secret Realm, the three ruling-level apex Automatons were in the open, while Su Yu and Morningstar operated in the shadows. They were all Automaton spies, working in tandem.
However, Su Yu's disguise was so perfect that I didn't detect anything amiss."
"So, their goal is to deceive us into coming here?" Magrathon asked.
"Yes, the Automatons want to trap us all," Leah affirmed.
The current situation indeed seemed to support her assessment. In a short time, she couldn't defeat this "legendary Automaton," and her 200 ruling-level subordinates might be trapped here, doomed to perish!
"How despicable!"
"I never imagined the Automatons could devise such a vile stratagem!"

"We've been completely deceived!"
"The Automatons can create carbon-based life forms at the ruling-level apex; it's appalling upon contemplation!"
...
The carbon-based powerful beings, who unleashed a barrage of curses, their anger reaching its peak.
Facing the ranting carbon-based life forms, the Automatons were perplexed.
What were these protein insects talking about? Was Su Yu mistaken for a spy on their side?
The Automatons had also been keeping an eye on Su Yu and Morningstar.
The sudden appearance of a primitive ancestor among the carbon-based life forms, whose combat power, along with his pet's, reached the ruling-level apex, was something the Automatons couldn't ignore. However, due to the short time frame, barely ten days, the Automatons' understanding of Su Yu and Morningstar was limited to initial information gathering.
And now, from the Automatons' perspective, it all seemed rather perplexing.
How had Su Yu become one of their spies?
...
In truth, the Automatons knew where Su Yu had gone.
When Su Yu and Morningstar secretly left the main force, Su Yu released his doppelganger.
Su Yu had kept his doppelganger by his side, but in the past five years, it hadn't been of much use, as its strength was low, only at the eighth-stage peak.
Su Yu hadn't planned to upgrade his doppelganger because it couldn't cultivate the 'Civilization Binding' technique, and the resources required to enhance it were frightening, almost on par with those needed for Leah.
However, now, this doppelganger had suddenly become invaluable!
