Chapter 607: Headquarters of the Relevant Department
Chapter 607: Headquarters of the Relevant Department
After ending his call with Xue Wenli, Su Yu returned home, his mind heavy with thoughts.
It seemed he had less than an hour to produce the [Spatial Ring] and then head to Mount Kunlun to meet up with the Great Cultivators. Time was tight, but upon returning home, his eyes lit up at the sight of Aijie, who had already changed into a red and white lolita outfit. "Aijie, you look absolutely stunning in that outfit!"
"Really?" Aijie's face turned a light shade of red, and she was clearly delighted.
"Of course." Su Yu quickly walked over to Aijie, looking her up and down. "Turn around for me to see."
"Uh, okay." Aijie felt a bit embarrassed but still turned around as Su Yu requested.
Watching Aijie, who looked like a fairy, Su Yu couldn't help but praise her: "You're just too beautiful! I'm at a loss for words; I can't think of anything to describe your beauty! You and Tiana are the two most beautiful girls in the world!"
"Thanks for including me." Tiana winked at him.
Aijie couldn't hold back her blush anymore and changed the subject: "Um... didn't you just take a call? Was it something urgent?"
Just then, Chenxing, who had been quietly standing there, suddenly spoke up, "I bet the person who called you was a woman, right? Don't you have a 14-year-old 'girlfriend' in the real world?"
"Ah, that." Su Yu felt a bit awkward and rubbed his nose. "It wasn't the one you're thinking of, but another woman."
Aijie and Tiana's smiles froze on their faces, and the atmosphere became a bit tense.
However, Su Yu remained calm. "Don't get worked up. The 14-year-old 'girlfriend' is a complete misunderstanding. The woman who called me just now, we were discussing serious matters."
Seizing the opportunity, Su Yu gave a brief overview of his relationship with Xiaotian.
At the end of his explanation, he also told Tiana and Aijie about the upcoming battle.
After listening to Su Yu's account, Tiana and Aijie exchanged glances.
They had heard about Kexing and Xiaotian from other interdimensional adventurers, who were usually the first to spread gossip.
Now, hearing Kexing explain everything so openly, they felt it was best to be understanding and not hold Su Yu accountable.
"So, you only see her as a sister?"
"Of course."
"Then that's good!" Tiana walked over and hugged Su Yu's arm. "Let's go take care of the important matters. We can talk more on the way."
"Alright."
Su Yu waved at Chenxing, who obediently jumped back into the pet space.
Then, Su Yu began to cast a spell, and a silver-white teleportation platform appeared beneath their feet. In the next second, they left Donghai City and arrived at the headquarters of the relevant department in the capital.
The headquarters of the relevant department was located on Yan Mountain to the north of the capital.
After Su Yu advanced to the sixth stage, he first cleared the spirit spring in the Yan Mountain area, which included one large and seven small springs.
Once the area was cleared, it naturally became the base of the relevant department.
Additionally, because it was relatively close to the capital, it was developed into the headquarters.
The silver-white teleportation array appeared in an open area at the center of the base.
As the white light faded, Su Yu, Tiana, and Aijie appeared on a cement ground that looked like a training field. Chenxing leaped out of the pet space and perched on Su Yu's shoulder.
This was Aijie's first time in this world, and she curiously examined the surrounding military facilities and annexed buildings.
Although Tina wasn't a first-time visitor, she rarely came to military strongholds, so she was just as curious as Alyssa.
Su Yu took out his phone, ready to contact Xue Wenli.
At that moment, two beams of light descended, and the 3D projections of Chairman Hu Jing and Commissar Zhang appeared before them.
"Hello, I am Chairman Hu Jing of the United Government of Blue Earth, and this is General Commissar Zhang Ling. Empress Alyssa, welcome to our world!" Chairman Hu said, bowing to Alyssa.
The bow was a formal gesture used in the game world when one imperial emperor meets another, a sign of respect and friendship.
Technically, Chairman Hu's position, akin to the "President of Earth," was higher than Alyssa's, but Hu Jing clearly treated her as an equal.
"Hello, Chairman Hu. We've met before," Alyssa replied with a courteous bow.
Alyssa had dealt with Chairman Hu Jing many times. When the United Government of Blue Earth and the Golden Fleur-de-lis Empire formed a comprehensive strategic partnership, it was Hu Jing who personally entered the game to negotiate with her. They were practically old acquaintances.
Chairman Hu Jing smiled at Alyssa. "This is the headquarters of the relevant departments in our world. If you don't mind, I'd like to show you around. Here, you can see the most advanced military technology of both Blue Earth and Skrull."
"I'd be delighted."
"Very well, this way, please."
Chairman Hu Jing gestured invitingly, preparing to guide the esteemed guest around the base.
However, Su Yu spoke up. "Chairman Hu, Commissar Zhang, you two go ahead with your work. I can take care of welcoming Empress Alyssa."
Chairman Hu and Commissar Zhang turned to look at him.
Su Yu smiled and explained, "I plan to take the Empress to—"
He glanced at the spatial ring on Tina's right index finger.
Chairman Hu and Commissar Zhang understood immediately.
Su Yu continued, "We have to meet the Great Cultivators at Kunlun Mountain in an hour, so time is tight. I'm afraid I'll have to decline your kind offer!"
"That's fine, business comes first," Chairman Hu waved it off. "Then, Zhang Ling and I will take our leave."
"Goodbye!"
Chairman Hu and Commissar Zhang waved goodbye to Su Yu and the others, and their 3D projections vanished from the open space.
Watching the projections disappear, Morning Star, perched on Su Yu's shoulder, marveled, "No wonder, Alyssa. The moment you arrived on Blue Earth, the two most powerful figures immediately came to greet you!"
Alyssa looked a bit dazed, staring at the spot where the two had vanished. "What kind of magic was that? To be honest, I've never seen anything like it, and I didn't feel any magical fluctuations."
"That's because it's not magic!" Tina walked over, smiling and hugging Alyssa's arm. "This is pure technological power, a product of Skrull technology."
"Oh, I see." Alyssa nodded, understanding dawning on her face.
The technological level in the game world was so far behind Skrull's that anything she saw seemed incredible.
But now wasn't the time to ponder such things.
Alyssa looked at Su Yu and asked, "Kexing, where should we go first?"
