Chapter 564: The Death of "Su Yu"
Chapter 564: The Death of "Su Yu"
A beam of red light suddenly shot out from a spatial rift above the base.
As soon as it emerged from the rift, the beam erupted into a sea of fiery red light.
The fiery red light illuminated the entire night sky, making it feel like broad daylight to Zhong Feng and his companions inside the base.
Even with their Mid-Sixth-Rank strength, they found the light above them blinding.
Zhong Feng, along with his two companions and Emperor Liu Che, all felt a chill run down their spines, sensing that something was terribly wrong.
Before they could react, a stern voice of a middle-aged Skrull woman echoed from above: "I've finally found you, Su Yu. Today is the day of your downfall! Dying by my hand will be an honor for you."
Emperor Liu Che and Zhong Feng's Skrull language skills were not up to par, so they couldn't understand her words, but they knew they were in grave danger.
"Quick, get out of here!" Emperor Liu Che shouted to the three, immediately summoning his flying sword to try to lead them away.
But at that moment, three beams of golden light shot out from Zhong Feng and his companions, coalescing into the figure of "Su Yu" in the sky.
"Senior Liu Che, take them away. She wants me!" "Su Yu" said without hesitation, flying straight toward the middle-aged Skrull woman.
"Su Yu, no, you have to go! Don't worry about us!" Zhong Feng shouted, reaching out to stop him.
He would rather die himself than see Su Yu die, knowing that Su Yu's value to humanity far outweighed his own.
Emperor Liu Che also prepared to fight to the death.
His hair and beard bristled, and he formed a seal, channeling his magic power into his flying sword, which shot out like a bolt of lightning. He also shouted to Su Yu, "Su Yu, run! I'll hold her off! You must survive!"
However, his flying sword was quickly blocked by a red light barrier. The sword struck the barrier, sparking but failing to break through.
The disparity between Sixth Rank and Eighth Rank was starkly evident.
"Su Yu" seemed not to hear Liu Che and Zhong Feng's cries.
The Skrull woman known as the "Shining Queen," a Divine-Class telekinetic named Victoria, had already thrown the "Blazing Sun Seal" at him. Without dodging or using any abilities (which would have exposed his true strength), "Su Yu" slowly flew toward the "Blazing Sun Seal."
Bang!
As expected, "Su Yu" was hit by the rapidly approaching "Blazing Sun Seal" and exploded into a cloud of blood.
"Hmm?" The "Shining Queen" Victoria was taken aback.
The "Blazing Sun Seal" was crafted by the late Emperor Manina XI with the primary purpose of sealing space to prevent Su Yu from using a teleportation spell to escape.
But Su Yu had no intention of escaping and hadn't used any survival skills. He had simply collided head-on with the "Blazing Sun Seal" and shattered into pieces. What was going on?
Despite the disbelief, the reality was clear: Su Yu was dead. She could sense that his body and mind had been utterly destroyed. How could this not be death?
Victoria floated in the sky, utterly perplexed.
"Ahh!"
At the same time, in the guest room of Cindy Doppler's house on Skrull, the real Su Yu suddenly sat up in bed, clutching the morning star resting on his chest and letting out a pained howl.
Although the mental energy in his clone accounted for only 1% of his total, even 1% was significant!
It was like having 1.5 pounds of flesh cut from a grown man's thigh. Not being in excruciating pain would be a miracle!
He felt as if his head had been slammed by a Star Destroyer, his vision swimming with golden stars, and his headache so intense he could hardly breathe.
Even his eyes, nose, ears, and mouth were bleeding, making him look absolutely terrifying.
"Sky, what's wrong?" Morning Star, who had been in a light sleep, was startled by Su Yu's appearance, her fur standing on end.
Could it be that Cindy Doppler poisoned him?
But now wasn't the time to confront Cindy Doppler.
She quickly transformed into her Stellar Tree form, her deep blue leaves waving as she cast Rejuvenation, Life Bloom, and Nature's Touch. The healing spells rained down on Su Yu like bullets from a machine gun.
But Su Yu's injuries were internal, affecting his mental energy. These healing spells were only marginally effective, if at all.
Su Yu could only feel himself enveloped in a thick aura of stellar and natural power, but it did nothing to alleviate his condition.
Bang, bang, bang!
Cindy Doppler, who was in the study downstairs, heard Su Yu's agonized cries.
Without hesitation, he rushed to the third floor and knocked on Su Yu's door. "Mr. Sky's Wing, what's wrong?"
The door opened automatically, and Cindy Doppler hurried inside, immediately seeing Su Yu sitting on the bed, clutching his head and gasping for breath.
Morning Star stared intently at Cindy Doppler, ready to act if he was the one who had poisoned Su Yu!
Seemingly sensing Morning Star's readiness, Su Yu, sitting on the bed, gritted his teeth through the pain. "My clone has been killed. My mental energy has been severely damaged. Don't worry... I just need some time to recover."
By this point, Su Yu was too exhausted to continue and could only gasp for breath.
Hearing Su Yu's words, Morning Star realized she had misjudged Cindy Doppler.
She quickly focused her attention back on Su Yu, transforming into her Star Spirit Fox form. Using the mental secrets of this form, she helped Su Yu heal his injuries and ease his pain.
Cindy Doppler's face darkened as he stroked his chin.
Of course, he knew about Su Yu's clone. After all, over the past three days, while Su Yu was "moving around" in the Bak Country, another Su Yu was diligently attacking the League's spring on Blue Star. It had to be a clone!
But he didn't disturb Su Yu. Instead, he took out his phone and contacted his confidant, instructing him to keep an eye on the real-time developments in the Solar Empire and the Expeditionary Force.
He knew that with "Su Yu" being assassinated, King Mariner XIII would surely come out to gloat.
At the same time that "Su Yu" sacrificed himself, Emperor Liu Che led Zhong Feng and the others to quickly move outside the Skrull base.
Outside the base was Blue Star's territory, and even a god-level powerhouse like Victoria wouldn't dare to chase them out here, so they were now safe.
Zhong Feng and Old Meng fell to the ground, staring blankly at the sky.
Su Yu, just like that, was dead?
The pillar of hope for humanity, the one they had relied on, Su Yu, had so easily sacrificed himself?
How could this be possible?
They couldn't accept it.
Xiao Tian, of course, knew what had happened. She knew that only Su Yu's clone had died.
But she feigned a look of disbelief and emptiness, with no intention of revealing the truth to Zhong Feng and the others.
She knew that only if the Skrulls believed Su Yu was dead would his actions on Skrull be safer.
As for Su Yu being alive, they would find out when he returned from Skrull in four days, like a bolt from the blue.
