Chapter 821: The Death of Gordon
Chapter 821: The Death of Gordon
Gazing at the surveillance footage of the rampaging Morning Star, Jenny's face turned pale, and she gasped, "What the hell! Why isn't it Su Yu?"
Just a moment ago, when she saw the distinctive light blue teleportation portal, Jenny had been overjoyed, thinking it must be him! But she hadn't expected it to be Morning Star alone. Su Yu had disgracefully hidden behind, not joining them.
"What a coward, hiding while your pet does the fighting?" Jenny spat, her anger boiling.
However, there was no point in these thoughts now. Morning Star had already begun its rampage.
Morning Star's skills—Pounce, Flash, and Star Speed—were not spatial techniques. The "Spatial Interference Devices" they had meticulously set up were completely useless against such rapid movements.
In the midst of the rebel army, Morning Star wreaked havoc, tearing apart fighter jets, combat hovercraft, and single soldier mechs. They shattered and fell to the ground under the wide-ranging attack.
Seeing the devastating power of Morning Star, Jenny's face darkened as she decided to change the attack plan.
From the video, it was clear that the rebels couldn't kill Morning Star.
Morning Star could transform into a massive bear, able to withstand tremendous damage, and into a tree form, able to heal itself.
Unless the rebels could focus a concentrated attack to take down Morning Star, their efforts would be futile.
"Alright, let's abandon the assault on 'Starlight District.' Everyone, scatter and head to other parts of the city," Jenny instructed the rebels after careful consideration.
This ten thousand rebels were helpless against Morning Star, gathering together would be easier prey than being crushed. Instead of clustering, they chose to disperse and cause destruction.
Issuing the second order, Jenny quickly followed, "In small teams of ten, each team should capture one to two civilians, preferably those without resistance."
The two orders were quickly relayed.
The main rebel force quickly received the instructions and, in a state of confusion, they immediately began to act according to the new plan, dispersating to capture civilians as captages.
9,000 soldiers quickly scattered, and the 360-degree spread across the city. The rebels, who had been trained to fly and fight, quickly distanced from Morning Star.
Seeing the scattered rebels, this time was Morning Star's turn to react. She had been so overjoyed by the unexpected turn of events, she decided to take action. The rebels, who had been trained to fight and kill, were now caught off guard. They had underestimated the threat posed by the rebels, who had been using civilians as human shields. This made the situation even more dangerous.
"Fine, let's call Su Yu. We need to talk about the situation here," Jenny said, taking a deep breath of relief. She took the phone out of her pocket and dialed the call to Su Yu.
Meanwhile, in the government building, Su Yu had already arrived the heart of the rebel-controlled city. The rebel leadership, now under Jenny's control, had lost their original functions and were now reduced to mere pawns. With a "waste not mentality" mindset, Jenny ordered them to the government building's basement, armed with the weapons they had prepared, to destroy the surrounding buildings.
Seeing the rebels rushing toward the government building, Su Yu appeared a flash to the center of the crowd, using the technique [Flash Step], and the spell [Frost Nova Star] on the crowd. The rebels, who were now disoriented, quickly scattered, and began to attack the government building and its surroundings. The rebels, who had been trained to fight and kill, the moment, Su Yu appeared a flash to the center of the room, using the technique [Flash Step], and the spell [Frost Nova Star] on the rebels. They were now disoriented, but this time, the rebels had been trained to fight and kill, were now caught off guard. They had underestimated the threat posed by the rebels, who had been using civilians as human shields. This made the situation even more dangerous.

A blue-white ice ring centered on Su Yu spread out with a "crack" sound, freezing everything within hundreds of meters into ice sculptures.
Su Yu didn't have time to deal with these ice sculptures.
He used his long-distance teleportation ability to flash to the top floor of the government building, which was Prime Minister Gordon's office.
Gordon had just finished his speech and returned to his office. Since he hadn't been assigned any tasks by Janet, he had no tasks to manage.
Facing the suddenly appearing Su Yu, Gordon raised his head, his eyes blood-red and emotionless, as if he didn't recognize Su Yu.
Su Yu prepared to use the Binding Spell to control him.
However, as soon as Su Yu raised his hand, Gordon self-detonated with a loud "bang," turning into a mist of blood without any warning.
Su Yu quickly cast an Instant Ice Shield to protect himself from the explosion.
It was clear that Janet had controlled Gordon's self-destruction.
Not only Gordon, but also the rebel leaders frozen in the government building's square, exploded into blood mist.
Janet's goal was clear: she wouldn't leave anything for Su Yu.
Seeing the blood mist before him, Su Yu's face couldn't help but change slightly.
He had originally planned to capture Gordon and learn more about his connection with the Skrulans. But now, with a single explosion, everything was over.
However, Su Yu wasn't completely helpless. He still had a very special skill as a Mage: the Soul Search.
He had used this skill half a year ago to probe the red ghost's memory and determine that the Skrul soldiers had left the spring, successfully capturing the Yun Lu Mountain's massive spring.
Since then, he hadn't used the skill much, but this was the perfect opportunity, as Gordon was now just a soul.
He didn't hesitate and immediately began casting.
Translucent waves spread from his fingertips, enveloping the blood mist left by Gordon's self-destruction.
Soon, Gordon's memories from the past few months were transmitted to Su Yu's mind, and the scenes from Gordon's life played out before him.
Su Yu ignored't care about the past memories, focusing on the most recent half months.
He quickly found the memory of Gordon being invited to the Skrul planet to meet with Lance, the moment Su Yu had been betrayed by the blue planet's betrayal of human.
"Damn!" After seeing these memories, Su Yu couldn't help but sigh.
They never expected Gordon to betray, always thinking he was a good comrade.
Gordon, as the Prime Minister of the Pacific Federation, had undergone four "Advanced Thought Tests" in the past six months, with test subjects from all over the world. He had passed every one of them flawlessly.
But he never anticipated that the Skrulans would manipulate his memories.
"Looks like we need to improve the 'Advanced Thought Test' in the future," Su Yu thought to himself.
The memory of the previous betrayal by the celestial sword still flashed deeply, never expecting this would the case again.
At least Gordon's early-destruction saved him some time, otherwise it would have been a huge problem during the battle.
"But... why did they self-destruct?" Su Yu frowned, staring at the pool of blood, his expression bleak.
