Chapter 568: Chancellor Cao Returns to Blue Star
Chapter 568: Chancellor Cao Returns to Blue Star
Plante raised a hand, and a 3D projection of "Su Yu" at the moment of his death appeared between the two of them.
He chuckled with satisfaction, "Victoria personally brought the [Blazing Sun Seal], which can lock down spatial dimensions, to Blue Star and successfully killed Su Yu in the Tian Shan Mountains!"
"Now that Su Yu is dead, it's time for you to fulfill your promise, right?"
Chancellor Cao stared intently at the 3D projection in front of him.
Seeing Su Yu's death, his blood pressure spiked, and the hilt of the [Myriad Admonitions Sword] in his hand emitted a faint azure glow.
However, Cao was a very composed person, and from the 3D projection, he noticed many inconsistencies.
Why didn't Su Yu dodge Victoria's [Blazing Sun Seal] and escape?
Even if the [Blazing Sun Seal] could lock down spatial dimensions, it still seemed unreasonable that Su Yu didn't use any life-saving spells.
Of course, unreasonable didn't mean the 3D projection was fake.
If the Skrullians were truly trying to deceive him with a fake 3D projection, it would definitely not be so unreasonable.
So, this seemingly fake projection might actually be real.
This left Chancellor Cao in a quandary.
After thinking for about seven or eight seconds, he looked straight at Plante, his eyes burning like flames, "Sir Plante, how do you prove this 3D projection is real?"
Plante had already anticipated that Cao wouldn't easily believe him and had a plan ready.
He met Cao's gaze unflinchingly and smiled, "How about this: we sign a contract, and you return to Blue Star to investigate the truth."
"If Su Yu is not dead, you can stay on Blue Star; if Su Yu is dead, you must return to Skrull and fulfill your previous promise according to the contract."
Cao didn't think twice and immediately replied, "Alright, let's do it your way."
About ten minutes later, Chancellor Cao, eager to return, passed through the spatial rift above Sun City and returned to Blue Star.
In the Flandrain Palace, the divine psychic Victoria's figure appeared beside Plante.
She looked at Plante with concern, "Just letting him go like this? Is it really safe? What if he doesn't come back?"
"Relax, he will come back," Plante said, looking at the clouds in the sky with certainty.
"After all this time, I understand this human's thoughts very well.
"During the time he was under our control, he always saw Su Yu as a mental anchor and the only hope for humanity to defeat us.
"Now that Su Yu is dead, he definitely won't have the heart to continue opposing us.
"Letting him go to Blue Star now, once he loses heart, we can resolve this issue once and for all."
"Ah, I hope you're right!" Victoria sighed lightly.
Although she had killed Su Yu, she still felt something was off, but she couldn't pinpoint what it was.
But at that moment, she suddenly sensed a very fast energy fluctuation from a great distance. If her judgment was correct, this should be the energy fluctuation from a battle of their level!
But such battles among divine-level powerhouses on Skrull were rare, at least in the past 30 years.
She turned to Plante in surprise, "Did you sense that?"
"Hmm, I also detected that energy fluctuation," Plante's expression became unusually serious, "If I'm not mistaken, it should be a battle between Stym and Sylia, near Beck City."
Here is the rewritten chapter with non-English characters replaced with their English equivalents or transliterations:

“Cecilia? Has she returned from Serretan Star?!” Victoria asked in surprise.
“Regardless, let’s go check it out.” Plant said, piloting his mech to transform into a flash of gold light, disappearing on the spot.
November 7th, the fifth day since Su Yu arrived on Skeru Star.
7:00 AM, Su Yu, accompanied by Chen Xing (Morning Star) in her purple, mouse-like disguise, walked out of the guest room.
Not far along, Cindy Doppler approached him with a beaming smile.
Unlike the previous night, Cindy Doppler's face radiated joy, her euphoric mood almost overflowing.
Su Yu hesitated, “Lord Doppler, what’s the cause for such delight?”
“Cecilia, Lady Cecilia has returned!” Cindy Doppler exclaimed enthusiastically:
“I always thought Lady Cecilia maintained neutrality, hence her silence on Beck's civil war. I just found out she had urgent business on Serretan Star and has now returned! Guess who benefits from Lady Cecilia's return?”
Su Yu, observing Doppler's smug expression, smirked, “No need to guess; it’s obviously beneficial to you. If it favored the opposing side, you wouldn’t be smiling so broadly.”
“Haha, exactly.” Cindy Doppler beamed with joy: “Upon her return, Lady Cecilia clashed with Lord Sturm, expelling G2's forces. She's called for an immediate ceasefire and a democratic vote to resolve the conflict, essentially guaranteeing our victory!”
Current polls indicated the "Anti-Union Organization" held approximately 65% of the public's support, while the "Beck Progressive Party" had around 22%, with the remainder belonging to minor parties. Thus, a vote would almost certainly secure the "Anti-Union Organization's" win!
“Congratulations!” Su Yu offered his felicitations to Cindy Doppler: “I'll leave Beck City now, to avoid Lady Cecilia discovering my... complicated situation with you.”
“Very well. By the way, the 'Nuclear Fission Radiation Absorption Crystal' arrived last night – 50 kilograms, stored in my office. I'll fetch it for you!”
“Thank you!” Su Yu expressed his gratitude.
Fifteen minutes later, Su Yu, armed with the "Nuclear Fission Radiation Absorption Crystal" and a forged ID provided by Cindy Doppler, departed Beck City.
He planned to replicate his arrival, taking an international flight from the neighboring country, Saint Tos, to Skeru's largest city, Trina City.
Four hours later, at 11:00 AM, Su Yu successfully boarded the flight to Trina City.
However, he wasn't confident about this mission.
As Cindy Doppler mentioned, the Renkert Eternal Emblem was housed in the Renkert National Museum, an area inhabited by many powerful six- and seven-tier individuals, and the divine-tier Sturm might have already returned to Trina City.
If discovered upon arrival, his chances of survival would be slim.
Morning Star, in her cat form, seemed to sense Su Yu's apprehensions.
She set aside her phone, gently sweeping Su Yu's occipital lobe with her fluffy tail: “When in doubt, roll the dice! Isn't that what the Fate Die you obtained is for?”
“Exactly.” Su Yu nodded, retrieving the golden Fate Die from his necklace.
With a gentle toss, the die fell, spinning slowly on the floor.
