Chapter 79: The Ultimate Winner of the Ultra-Artifact Inheritance War
Chapter 79: The Ultimate Winner of the Ultra-Artifact Inheritance War
During his conversation with Cindy Doppler, Su Yu suddenly realized this was a golden opportunity!
Currently, all the high-ranking powerhouses of the Runkte Alliance were on the Wild Continent, while Chancellor Cass remained in the country.
If he made a surprise return to Trener City, could he find a chance to assassinate Cass?
With Cass dead, the Runkte Alliance would undoubtedly fall into chaos!
With this thought in mind, Su Yu decided to give it a try. He looked at Cindy Doppler and honestly shared his plan.
Su Yu knew Doppler's character; in his previous life, Doppler had always been a staunch ally of the Blue Star humans, never wavering even when humanity was on the brink of extinction.
So, Su Yu wasn't worried about Doppler betraying him and informing the Runkte people of his actions.
Cindy Doppler was completely stunned by Su Yu's idea.
"Stealthily infiltrate Trener City to assassinate Cass? What a bold plan!" he exclaimed.
"What do you think?" Su Yu's eyes sharpened as he looked in the direction of Trener City to the southeast.
Cindy Doppler stroked his chin, deep in thought, his expression constantly changing.
After some consideration, he let out a long breath. "Sir Su Yu, I support your decision. Is there anything we can assist you with?"
"There is, actually. Give me a fighter jet!" Su Yu replied.
Morning Star: "Fight what?"
Su Yu: "..."
Half an hour later, Su Yu boarded the fighter jet gifted by Doppler and headed toward the Wild Continent.
With all the world's high-ranking powerhouses rushing to the Wild Continent, flying a fighter jet in that direction wouldn't raise any suspicion from other countries.
The fighter jet was incredibly fast, and it only took an hour to fly out of Beke's national borders.
Ten minutes after crossing the border, Su Yu gave the command to the fighter jet: "Command: Land here!"
"Yes, sir," the AI system of the fighter jet immediately responded, starting to slow down and searching for a flat piece of land to land on.
After the fighter jet safely landed, Su Yu and Morning Star stepped out. He opened his necklace and stored the fighter jet inside.
Morning Star took out her phone and checked their current location.
This phone was custom-made for her by Cindy Doppler, equipped with a special satellite positioning system that could even receive signals 500 meters underwater.
Using the phone's map, Morning Star discovered they were at the edge of the Wild Continent.
She extended the phone to Su Yu's face, showing him the map. "Killer Star, are you really going to Trener City to attempt an assassination?"
Morning Star had initially wanted to try her luck at the Ultra-Artifact. After all, she had ten lives, and a bold move might just get her the Ultra-Artifact.
Su Yu nodded firmly. "Of course, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
"But doesn't it seem quite dangerous to you?" Morning Star leaned on Su Yu's shoulder, turning to look at him.
"It's fine," Su Yu said casually. "Even if we fail the assassination, we won't lose anything. If we succeed, we'll gain a tremendous advantage! Morning Star, show me the the way, we, we we's the map, and our navigation. Let's head out now!"
Su Yu took off, carrying Morning Star as they flew toward the Runkte Alliance.
Su Yu and Morning Star were about 1,800 kilometers from Trener City, which would take roughly 11 and a half hours to fly at Su Yu's speed.
However, Morning Star stood on Su Yu's shoulder, casting various flight acceleration spells and occasionally transforming into her [Starlight Tree] form to restore his mana.
Even though Su Yu took a roundabout route to avoid drawing the attention of enemies, they still successfully arrived at the outskirts of Trener City after eight hours of flight.
In a forest on the outskirts of Trener, Su Yu perched on a branch of a towering tree, resting and replenishing his magic.
Meanwhile, he glanced at Chenxing, who was searching for information on her phone on a nearby branch. "Chenxing, can you find out what Kas is up to right now?"
Chenxing, lounging lazily on the branch, replied, "Kas is holding a press conference in the Speaker's Mansion. It seems to be about the gathering of high-level powerhouses on the Wasteland Continent. It's currently being live-streamed!"
Chenxing used her phone to project a 3D hologram into the air, showing Kas speaking confidently at the press conference.
"Alright, let's head to the Speaker's Mansion now," Su Yu said as he stood up from the branch.
Just as he was about to move, his phone in his pocket vibrated.
Pulling it out, Su Yu saw a message from Cindy Doppel: "Lord Su Yu, I shouldn't disturb you, but this information is crucial: According to the latest intelligence, the competition for the Ultra-Artifact on the Wasteland Continent has concluded!"
Cindy Doppel then sent a video clip.
Chenxing, already perched on Su Yu's shoulder, was quicker and tapped the video with her paw before Su Yu could react.
Su Yu didn't say anything, just glanced at Chenxing and then focused on the video.
The video was extremely blurry, as if it had been shot with a camera from centuries ago.
However, through the video, Su Yu could vaguely make out an elderly human with white hair and beard (Prime Minister Cao) holding a broken sword hilt, battling the god-tier powerhouse Plante of the Solara Empire.
The hilt seemed to possess boundless power, and Plante's left leg armor had been completely destroyed by the burst of green energy from the hilt.
But Prime Minister Cao was also in a dire state. His face alternated between green and white, and his body trembled uncontrollably, as if he couldn't fully control the hilt's power.
The entire video lasted only 30 seconds. In the final moments, Prime Minister Cao used the hilt to repel Plante once more and then vanished into the horizon in a flash of green light.
Su Yu: "..."
He was utterly stunned by the content of the video!
Clearly, in the competition for the Ultra-Artifact, Prime Minister Cao had obtained the hilt of the "Sword of Myriad Admonitions," becoming the ultimate winner!
However, this was just a hilt, not the complete form of the "Sword of Myriad Admonitions."
While the hilt's power was formidable, allowing the sixth-tier Prime Minister Cao to face off against a god-tier powerhouse, it would be extremely difficult for him to take on all the powerful beings on Scru Planet with just the hilt.
The video ended as Prime Minister Cao made his escape, but it was easy to imagine that the god-tier powerhouses of Scru Planet would not give up on the hilt and would chase him to the ends of the earth.
He could only hope that the old man could hold out.
Su Yu sighed silently, hoping that Prime Minister Cao would manage to escape safely!
At that moment, Cindy Doppel sent two more messages: "You've seen the video; 'Number Two' has the hilt, and ten god-tier powerhouses are hunting him down."
"The remaining high-tier powerhouses of the Lankert Alliance are preparing to return home and can't join the hunt. So, you need to act quickly; if you wait until the high-tier powerhouses return, it will be too late."
Su Yu thought for a moment and replied, "Understood. We'll take action now."
