Chapter 532: Three Days Later, Emergence
Chapter 532: Three Days Later, Emergence
In the following days, the Great Cultivators continued their purges across various countries, simultaneously supporting political groups loyal to Earth and humanity to take power.
Meanwhile, Su Yu spent these days in a secret chamber at the Nuclear War Headquarters, consolidating his realm and dispelling the backlash from magic.
Earlier, his long-distance assault on the Elbert Peak Skrull Base had drained him of a significant amount of mana, nearly causing him to regress to the peak of the Sixth Rank. During his seclusion, he almost lost control of his mana several times, risking a drop in his realm.
Fortunately, Su Yu still had three bottles of [Master-Level Energy Potions] in his necklace. These potions were highly effective in stabilizing his realm and dispelling the internal backlash from his magic.
On the brink of mana collapse, Su Yu downed all three bottles of energy potions in one go, stabilizing his internal mana environment and successfully overcoming this crisis.
Now, the dozens of Master-Level Potions he had accumulated in the game were all used up, and he would need to complete more quests to obtain more.
Three days later, it was November 1st.
After three days of seclusion, Su Yu had fully recovered from the mana backlash. He emerged from the secret chamber with a relaxed expression.
The Nuclear War Headquarters had become the command center for the relevant authorities. Xue Wenli had led her team to establish their presence here three days ago, providing strategic guidance for the purges in various countries.
In the main command room of the Nuclear War Headquarters, Xue Wenli received a message from one of her subordinates: "Sis Xue, Su Yu has emerged from his seclusion. Do you want to go see him?"
"What, Su Yu is out?" Xue Wenli's eyes lit up.
She grabbed her lake-blue military coat and quickly ran out of the command room.
Su Yu's seclusion location was in a secret storage room on the second underground level of the Nuclear War Headquarters' experimental building, originally used for storing nuclear fuel.
As he stepped out of the storage room, he saw Xue Wenli hurrying down the stairs.
She called out as she ran, "Su Yu, you're finally out! How are you feeling?"
"I'm feeling great, almost completely recovered," Su Yu smiled.
After descending the stairs, Xue Wenli approached Su Yu, her large eyes scrutinizing him from head to toe, "That's good! Everyone was concerned about your mana backlash. But to be honest, you seem less and less human!"
Su Yu had undergone several transformations in his ascension to the Sacred Domain and Legendary ranks. While he still looked the same on the outside, his body was no longer ordinary. Every organ, every blood vessel, and even every cell had undergone a spiritual transformation, evolving into a higher form of life.
Su Yu smiled faintly, "No matter what I become, I will always be human."
"Right," Su Yu changed the subject, "How has the plan been progressing while I was in seclusion?"
"It's been going well," Xue Wenli folded her arms and nodded, "The 16 countries that opposed us have all undergone a major purge. The traitors within these countries have been dealt with."
"Before, under the framework of the United Government, we couldn't touch these countries. Now, it's a blessing in disguise, as we've managed to clear out a batch of traitors among humans."
"That's good to hear," Su Yu sighed in relief.
"Then what about you?" Xue Wenli blinked at him, "What do you plan to do in the coming days?"
At the same time, she made a "please" gesture, leading Su Yu to the surface command center.
“Well, I plan to head back into the game to find some hidden quests,” Su Yu said as he walked. “I need to collect some Golden Potions and survival items. Do you have game helmets in the nuclear command center?”
“Sure,” Xue Wenli replied with a smile. “The 16 countries that were once our enemies destroyed about 2 million game helmets. We brought 500,000 helmets in the first batch, which are stored in the warehouse of the nuclear command center.”
“Moreover, we brought a batch of high-strength composite helmets for you and the other cultivators. I’ll have the logistics personnel bring one to you from the warehouse shortly.”
“Thank you.”
“You’re welcome.”
By the time they finished talking, they had reached the basement level. Xue Wenli took out her walkie-talkie and gave an order to her subordinate, then turned to Su Yu. “There are many mansions left by the former military officers in the town next to the nuclear command center. I’ll send you the address of one of them. You can log into the game there and take a rest as well.”
“Sure,” Su Yu agreed. It didn’t matter where he logged in; he wasn’t picky about the location.
As they continued chatting, they arrived at the main command room. Xue Wenli poured him a cup of Tieguanyin tea. Since his game helmet hadn’t arrived yet, Su Yu decided to ask Xue Wenli about the recent events in the game while he waited.
Xue Wenli primarily focused on real-world matters, but she was well-informed about major events in the game.
“In the game,” Xue Wenli said, sitting on the sofa opposite Su Yu and resting her chin on her fingers, “your pet cat has already recovered to the Seventh Rank. It recently participated in the battle at Dragon Shadow Outpost, a crucial strategic point in the Pandaren Empire, helping the Pandaren push back the invading Mantid forces. However, it has since returned to the Golden Rose Empire.”
“Your friend, Tina Garcia, is currently preparing to break through to the Seventh Rank. She has been issuing many quests to players to gather various breakthrough materials. She has now completed the preparation and is ready to make the breakthrough.”
Su Yu nodded. “That’s pretty fast.”
He hadn’t logged into the game for 10 days, which translated to four months in-game time. Indeed, a lot had happened in the game.
He also asked, “What about the game’s storyline? Where are we in the plot?”
Xue Wenli took a sip of her Tieguanyin and replied, “The game’s plot is still focused on the war. The alliance of eight races—humans, elves, orcs, dwarves, and others—landed on the Mantid Plateau and is attacking the Pandaren Empire below. The two sides are currently in a fierce battle, with neither side showing signs of collapse. If anything, the Pandaren Empire might be at a slight disadvantage. Su Yu, your helmet has arrived.”
As she spoke, a serviceman carrying a well-packaged cardboard box entered the main command room.
“Thank you for your hard work!” Xue Wenli gave the serviceman a military salute, took the box, and then turned to hand it to Su Yu.
Su Yu took the box. It was quite heavy, and both Xue Wenli and the serviceman had struggled with it. However, in Su Yu’s hands, it felt as light as a feather.
“Well, Wenli, I’ll let you get back to work. I’m going to log into the game,” Su Yu said, bidding her farewell.
“Sure, go ahead,” Xue Wenli smiled. “If you need anything, feel free to come find me.”
