Chapter 583: Please Wait Four More Days
Chapter 583: Please Wait Four More Days
After ending the call with Prime Minister Neon, Hu Jing turned to his side.
Beside him sat an elderly man with a sword hilt in his hand and his eyes tightly closed. This elderly man was Prime Minister Cao.
The call with Fujiwara Chika was just a minor interruption. Hu Jing's true purpose today was to meet with Prime Minister Cao.
"Are you done with the call?" Prime Minister Cao opened his tightly closed eyes and looked at Hu Jing.
The hilt of the "Myriad Admonitions Sword" in his hand emitted a faint blue glow, shimmering in the air.
"Yes, I'm done." Hu Jing nodded.
He turned to Prime Minister Cao and said seriously, "Senior Cao, do you really think we should surrender to the Skrulls?"
Prime Minister Cao shook his head, then nodded again. "My advice is not to surrender, but to prepare for it.
Ever since Su Yu's death, I've come to terms with the reality. We can't keep resisting until the end; we need to consider surrender and ensure all plans are thoroughly prepared."
"But when Su Yu was alive..." Hu Jing stood up, ready to argue.
When Su Yu was alive, he firmly opposed any talk of surrender, and the Blue Star Coalition Government never formulated any plans for surrender, not even as a fallback.
"Hu Jing, you must face the reality! Su Yu is dead!" Prime Minister Cao glared at him with wide eyes. "If Su Yu were still here, would I even think about surrender? But now that he's dead, it shows that the path of resistance is not viable, and we must explore other options."
Hu Jing thought of the deceased Su Yu and said gloomily, "I understand."
...
It had been four days since Prime Minister Cao returned to Blue Star.
During these four days, he first visited the place where "Su Yu" fell.
After confirming that Su Yu was indeed gone, Cao's mindset began to change.
If even Su Yu, the "Child of the World," was no longer around, did Blue Star humanity truly have a chance to turn the tide?
Now, he had to consider the Skrulls' offer and secure the last remaining space for humanity on Blue Star.
That's why he asked Hu Jing to formulate a plan for surrender, to leave a path for humanity's future.
Hu Jing understood this, but he really didn't want to take this route.
If possible, he still wanted to fight the Skrulls to the bitter end.
Dying standing was better than living on one's knees.
He looked at Prime Minister Cao and asked, "So, Senior Cao, when do you plan to go to Skrull?"
Prime Minister Cao thought for a moment and replied, "Tomorrow. Since Su Yu is dead, I must fulfill my promise to the Skrulls. I'll see if I can negotiate better terms for humanity on Skrull."
"Alright." Hu Jing sighed.
But just then, his phone rang.
Hu Jing took out his phone and looked at the screen, seeing that the call was from Zhong Feng.
He answered, "Hello, Zhong Feng, what's up?"
But on the video call, there was not just Zhong Feng; beside him stood a 14-year-old girl wearing a leather cap. This girl was Xiao Tian.
"Speaker Hu, it's not me who wants to see you, but Xu Xiaotian does," Zhong Feng explained.
At the same time, Zhong Feng adjusted the camera to focus on Xiao Tian. "This is Speaker Hu Jing. Say what you need to say."
"Um." Xiao Tian nodded seriously and spoke to the screen, "Hello, Speaker Hu Jing. I'm Xu Xiaotian, K's future girlfriend."
Speaker Hu Jing nodded at the screen. "Hello, do you have something to say?"
Xiao Tian replied, "I heard from Zhong Feng that Prime Minister Cao is planning to go to Skrull, right?"
Speaker Hu Jing glanced at Chancellor Cao by his side and replied, "That's right."
"Then please do me a favor and stop Chancellor Cao from going to Skrul in the next four days!"
"Why?" Hu Jing was puzzled.
"I can't explain it right now," Xiaotian shook his head. "But please believe me, he must not go to Skrul in the next four days! Otherwise, he will definitely regret it."
Su Yu would be back in four days at the latest, and she couldn't let Chancellor Cao head to Skrul now.
Speaker Hu Jing aimed his phone at Chancellor Cao.
Chancellor Cao seemed to have an idea.
So he nodded and said, "Alright, I'll stay on Earth for four more days."
The scene returned to Su Yu.
After a six-hour flight, Su Yu's plane successfully landed at Trenera International Airport. He used his fake identity to pass through security and smoothly entered Trenera City.
Then, he took public transportation directly to the "Lankte National Museum."
No one knew the purpose of his visit, so he didn't need to hide his movements.
An hour later, he arrived at the entrance of the Lankte National Museum.
The Lankte National Museum was a vast complex, with records showing that it had six buildings and over a thousand exhibition halls.
Su Yu didn't rush. He strolled through the halls like an ordinary tourist, not hurrying to find the "Lankte Eternal Badge."
The Lankte National Museum was a comprehensive institution dedicated to collection, exhibition, research, archaeology, public education, and cultural exchange.
In the first exhibit of the first building, Su Yu saw an introduction to the nearly 20,000-year history of the Lankte region, along with many precious artifacts.
There were also many Skrul visitors in the exhibit.
Su Yu tried to walk at the same pace as these Skrul to avoid standing out.
After spending 20 minutes in the first building, Su Yu walked to the second building.
Upon entering the first exhibit of the second building, Su Yu's eyes lit up.
Right in front of him was the "Lankte Eternal Badge"!
The "Lankte Eternal Badge" was undoubtedly a treasure of the Lankte Alliance.
Over 500 years ago, the Lankte region was still six separate kingdoms. To counter the growing pressure from the eastern Sun Empire, the six kingdoms united to form the "Lankte Alliance," becoming the most powerful nation on Skrul, surpassing the Sun Empire in every aspect.
Since it was a merger of six kingdoms, the Lankte Alliance chose a "representative system" as its basic political structure. All major decisions were made through the parliament, with the six member states' representation based on population and strength.
To strengthen the alliance, the first Speaker, Aisengerland, crafted the "Lankte Eternal Badge" to symbolize the enduring friendship of the six kingdoms.
This is why it was the most important exhibit in the entire hall.
Since pets were not allowed in the museum, Morning Star was currently in Su Yu's pet space.
Seeing the "Lankte Eternal Badge," Morning Star transmitted to Su Yu, "Is this the badge? When are we going to make our move?"
Su Yu immediately replied, "Morning Star, get ready. We'll start in 60 seconds, no matter what happens."
"Got it!" Morning Star answered from the pet space.
