Chapter 604: A Critical Battle
Chapter 604: A Critical Battle
For the next 132 hours, Su Yu stayed by Alyssa and Tina's side, just as he had promised. Of course, the cat Morning Star was always by his side as well.
During the day, Su Yu accompanied them as they handled official duties, enjoyed leisure activities, and interacted with the common people. At night, when Tina and Alyssa were tired and needed to rest, Su Yu didn’t rest with them. Instead, he used every second to improve himself.
In the first half of the night, he went to the Silver Pine Tower to study elemental and spatial magic, while gradually learning the basics of light and time magic to enhance his overall spellcasting abilities. In the second half of the night, he returned to his territory to continue refining the magical materials he had left.
Snow Leopard, upon learning that Su Yu was running out of resources, quickly sent him all the materials that the relevant departments had accumulated. This ensured that Su Yu wouldn’t lack resources in the short term.
Time ticked by, and the days passed in an orderly and fulfilling manner. Before he knew it, the 132 hours had passed.
After 132 hours, in the mage tower of Su Yu’s territory, Su Yu watched the game’s remaining login time, which was down to the last five minutes, and he let out a sigh of relief.
This was the first time he had stayed in the game for such a long period. The feeling of time flowing more slowly in the game allowed him to accomplish much more.
However, the high-tier magical materials provided by the relevant departments were running out, and to maintain his highest efficiency in practice, he would need to gather the materials himself in the future.
He looked at the cat Morning Star, who was absorbing an Experience Crystal, and said, “Morning Star, we’re about to log out. After logging out, I’ll find a place to refine the Spirit Sucker for you, so you can quickly boost your strength.”
“Alright, meow!” Upon hearing the word “Spirit Sucker,” Morning Star immediately perked up in excitement.
She flashed over, transforming into a streak of starlight and disappearing into Su Yu’s pet space.
Morning Star, after absorbing a large amount of Star Realm Energy, had almost fully recovered from her injuries, and her fur had regained its luster.
This put Su Yu at ease.
...
At that moment, a pale blue portal appeared beside Su Yu. A doppelganger identical to him emerged from the portal, handing over a spatial ring to Su Yu.
Su Yu took the ring and probed it with his divine sense, discovering that it contained over ten pieces of 3-5th tier golden equipment, six bottles of golden potions, and more than twenty high-tier magical materials.
These items were gathered by the doppelganger while helping Morning Star kill Star Realm Rats, completing quests, and slaying monsters on the Panda Continent.
With the doppelganger, Su Yu felt like he had an “auto-grind” feature in a card game, allowing him to gather a large amount of resources without personally having to run around.
“Not bad,” Su Yu said, patting the doppelganger on the shoulder in satisfaction.
The doppelganger nodded lightly, his face expressionless.
Su Yu opened the game’s backend and selected to log out. In the real world, Su Yu removed his helmet and stood up from the sofa.
As he took off the helmet, Morning Star had already jumped out of the pet space and pounced onto the magical cat pillow on the bed.
At the same time, the doppelganger also emerged from the game world and stood beside Su Yu.
Su Yu looked at the doppelganger after some thought, he gave him a few instructions and handed over the Hearthstone.
The doppelganger nodded in acceptance, took the Hearthstone, and used the Flash Step to leave the house.
The doppelganger was still at the peak of the 6th tier, and long-distance teleportation would consume a lot of his mana, greatly reducing his combat effectiveness.
Therefore, Su Yu’s instructions were for him to head to the branch office in East Sea City and take a supersonic fighter to the capital.
Later, he would take his cat, Morning Star, to the capital to meet up with his doppelganger.
As he watched his doppelganger leave, Morning Star, who was playing with her phone, said, "Your doppelganger is way too similar to you. He looks exactly like you."
"Of course, it's a Monkey God artifact. Apart from being much weaker than me, it's flawless in every other way," Su Yu smiled.
"Monkey God artifact," Morning Star repeated, her whiskers twitching. "So, does that mean your doppelganger was originally a monkey?"
Su Yu: "..."
Morning Star: "Definitely a monkey transformed into your shape, right?"
Su Yu: "Well..."
He didn't know how to refute that.
Since it was a Monkey God artifact, it was possible that the initial form of the doppelganger was indeed a monkey. Although the doppelganger was more mature and steady, not as playful as a typical monkey.
Not knowing how to refute it, he decided not to.
Su Yu pounced onto the bed and started petting Morning Star vigorously. She didn't resist much, letting him enjoy himself.
Su Yu hadn't petted his cat in months, so this was quite a treat for him.
But after about five minutes of petting, Morning Star suddenly swatted his hand away with her paw.
She stood up, shook her fur to make it neat again, and then looked at Su Yu, who was puzzled. She whispered, "Shh! Tina is almost here. Don't let her find out about our little secret!"
"What secret?" Su Yu felt a vein pop in his forehead.
Morning Star's words made it sound like they were having an affair, and a secret one at that, behind Tina's back.
He was just petting his own cat. Was it really that big of a deal?
He was about to comment, but then his game helmet floated up into the air.
The next second, a beautiful figure appeared below the helmet, and it was Tina.
"Hey, Su Yu, I'm here!" Tina took off her helmet and greeted him.
She had been to the real world dozens of times and was already used to it. Staying at Su Yu's house felt like being at home.
She looked around and didn't see Su Yu's doppelganger. Then she walked over to Su Yu's closet and started rummaging through it, picking out the most beautiful outfit to change into.
"Tina, you don't need to change clothes. The armor you're wearing is perfect," Su Yu reached out to stop her.
He looked at the thin, golden legendary armor she was wearing and explained, "We plan to attack a psychic spring tonight, and it's going to be a crucial battle. We need to capture several psychic springs, so we won't be shopping today."
While still in the game, Su Yu had already discussed with the relevant authorities that the main activity for tonight would be attacking psychic springs.
And tonight was different from the past. Tonight, Chancellor Cao, who had reached the peak of the 8th rank, would join the battle for the first time. This would bring about a significant change in the battle!
In the past, Su Yu wasn't particularly bold about attacking large psychic springs because he was afraid of encountering the god-level Skrull strongmen.
Moreover, large psychic springs had strong defenses. Su Yu, Morning Star, and Tina together could barely take down a large one.
So, most of the time, he focused on small psychic springs.
Now, with Chancellor Cao joining, they could not only target large psychic springs but even the gigantic ones!
