Chapter 447: The Dragon Race Affinity Potion Works?
Chapter 447: The Dragon Race Affinity Potion Works?
At five o'clock in the afternoon, the turmoil caused by Manina XIII had mostly subsided.
However, Su Yu's mood was far from cheerful.
From this forum incident, it was clear that there were quite a few surrenderists and those who still harbored illusions about the Skrulls on Earth!
If Manina XIII were to detect this and offer these traitors and fence-sitters some benefits, even just a verbal promise, they would likely be swayed, worsening the already dire war situation.
"Ah, I must work even harder!" Su Yu sighed to himself.
In the future, he would face not only the Skrulls but also enemies within humanity. He had to be cautious and avoid tripping over small obstacles.
Now that he had collected 1,000 [Wash Sea Cores], Su Yu activated the [Teleportation Array] and headed to the Newbie Village to deliver the four materials to Bernina Tide.
In the village square, Su Yu explained his purpose to the [Village Chief], who readily agreed and led him to Bernina's home. They found her sitting on a swing in the courtyard.
Today, Bernina wasn't wearing her usual transparent outfit but the attire Tina had given her. Aside from her hair color, she looked almost identical to Tina.
However, Su Yu wasn't bothered by this; his mind was preoccupied with thoughts of the future.
Bernina took the spatial ring Su Yu handed her, which contained the four materials and the [Soul of the Departed]. After verifying everything was in order, she nodded in satisfaction.
Seeming to sense Su Yu's concerns, she half-lay on the swing, propping her head up with her hand and asked, "Kexing, you seem troubled. If there's something you can't solve, you can tell me. I can provide some help within the game's rules."
"Really?"
"Of course."
"Alright, the situation is this..." Su Yu considered Bernina a trusted ally and didn't hold back, recounting the turmoil caused by Manina XIII.
Bernina swayed on the swing, listening patiently. When he finished, she nodded and said, "I see."
"I've met Manina before. He's very smart and strategic, but his flaw is being stubborn and easily swayed by biased information. However, this is a common trait among all the emperors of Sunlight, except for the founding emperor."
"Child." Bernina's casual word left Su Yu speechless.
What era was Bernina from? She actually called the 130-year-old Manina a child.
"Also, how did you meet the emperor of the Sunlight Empire? Can you enter the real world?" Su Yu asked.
"Hehe, I won't tell you." Bernina winked at him, as playful as Tina.
Su Yu: "."
"But, speaking of which." Bernina sat up from the swing, tapping her chin lightly. "At this moment, the best thing for you to do is to advance to retreat."
"Advance to retreat?" Su Yu was puzzled.
"Yes! Advance to retreat." Bernina nodded earnestly. "Manina's actions are just to disrupt your rear. You can take the initiative and disrupt his rear, can't you?"
"Disrupt his rear..." Su Yu looked thoughtful.
Could it be that she had already detected his contact with the anti-Alliance organization in Beck Country?
But at that moment, Bernina left the swing, stood up, and walked to Su Yu. She gently sniffed his neck and said, "You have a very alluring scent. It's an advantage, so don't forget to use it!"
"Alluring scent?"
Su Yu was even more confused. What was she hinting at?
"Let me give you a hint," Bernina said, gently patting his cheek. "The Dragon Kinship Elixir."
"Th-this..."
Bernina's words hit Su Yu like a bolt of lightning.
The Dragon Kinship Elixir was a gift from Kevin Ginkgo. When combined with the Heart of the Azure Dragon Scathi, it could grant him permanent favor with the dragon race.
Su Yu had originally planned to go to Dragon Island to "kidnap" a young, beautiful, and talented female dragon to serve as his mount. However, he later acquired the kitten Morningstar, and the plan was put on hold.
After all, the planet Skrul also had its own dragon race! Could the elixir work on Skrul's dragons as well?!
Noticing Su Yu's astonished gaze, Bernina smiled before he could ask. "Of course it works on Skrul's dragons. All dragons in the universe are fundamentally similar, so there's no chance of it failing. This is your advantage; you must use it well!"
"Thank you, Lady Bernina!" Su Yu joyfully bowed in the mage’s manner. This was the best news he had received in a long time!
Bernina yawned and sat back on the swing, her eyes drooping with fatigue. "Is there anything else?"
"Uh, I don't think so," Su Yu replied.
"Then that's it for now." Bernina waved her hand. "I'll turn the extra Soul of the Departed into a ring. It might take some time, but once it's ready, I'll have my clone deliver it to you."
"Thank you, Lady Bernina!" Su Yu expressed his gratitude again.
"Don't mention it. If you really want to thank me, take good care of Tina." Bernina closed her eyes and seemed to drift off to sleep on the swing.
At the same time, in a study within the palace of the Solar Empire on the distant planet Skrul, Emperor Manina XIII was meeting with his intelligence minister, Seon.
"Seon, how is the situation on Earth?" Manina put down his book and calmly looked at Seon.
"Your Majesty, it's going very well!" Seon smiled. "Most humans on Earth are now seething with resentment, but they dare not speak out!"
"Excellent!" Manina nodded in satisfaction. "During this period, try to contact some of the Earthlings who are willing to surrender. Offer them some benefits to keep them stirring up trouble. I want Su Yu to know the price of crossing me!"
"Yes, Your Majesty," Seon said, bowing his head.
In the past, Manina would have found the idea of buying traitors beneath him.
After all, Skrul's military strength far exceeded Earth's. When the final assault came, the royal army would simply crush the human resistance.
Now, he was doing this because he couldn't retaliate against Su Yu in the short term. Cultivating some traitors to irritate Su Yu was a good alternative.
Seon smiled and flattered, "Your Majesty, you are truly wise and decisive! Your strategy has completely thrown Su Yu off balance. Even if Speaker Cass were still alive, he would be no match for you."
"Cass? He was just a puppet pushed forward by the major families. How could that fool compare to me?" Manina sneered. "I will make Su Yu realize that assassinating Cass and putting me, a smarter ruler, in power, was the most foolish decision he has ever made!"
