Chapter 192: 192, Return to the game, wonder completed_1

“A sixth-level powerhouse?!” one of the Skru heads expressed in shock: “According to the data provided by the Holy Silver Federation, isn’t the strongest on the Blue Star only at the fourth-level peak?”

“I don’t know why either. I’m still in further communication with the Holy Silver Federation.”

In the video conference view, the Chairman of the Lun Kete Federation shook his head continuously.

“Moreover, according to the known intelligence, this sixth-level powerhouse is skilled in ‘Mind Control.’”

“He used mind control to forcibly manipulate the pilots and commanders of the Lingwu Mountain fleet, using their privileges to swap the ‘tine-3’ type missile and the ‘Psychic Energy Storage Tank’ positions. The transport ships wrongfully took back the missile, eventually causing this major accident on the Floating Island.”

The Chairman disclosed all the information gathered from the current investigation.

Upon hearing his description, the other Skru heads all frowned.

A sixth-level powerhouse capable of mind control? No wonder.

They were confident in their own technological strength, the Blue Star humans could not breach their network from the outside.

But, they lacked precaution against “insiders.”

“Mind control” turned all the Skru troops at one base into insiders. Added to the fact that the Floating Island had been constructed less than a month ago and their defensive facilities were not completely perfected, it allowed the Blue Star humans to exploit the lack of internal defense.

“Your Excellency Cass, we need to learn from this incident and improve our internal defenses,” one of the heads said.

“I understand.” The Chairman nodded: “I will report the follow-up results of the accident investigation to you all later. Starting tonight, I will undermine the permissions of the expeditionary force on various aspects, consolidate our internal defense work, to prevent such incidents from happening again!”

The Emperor of Raging Sun Empire, Manina XIII, coldly said: “I hope you can do as you say. If similar incidents happen again, I may have to consider voting for a change in the commander of the expeditionary force.”

After saying that, the video of Manina XIII went dark; he had clearly left the video conference room.

The heads of the other three major forces were somewhat helpless, shared a few comforting words before also leaving the video conference room one after the other.

Thus ended an unsatisfactory exchange among the heads in Skru Star.

The scene shifts back to Blue Star.

At two in the afternoon, in Su Yu’s home in East Sea City.

A flash of white light and Su Yu appeared in the living room.

“Finally back!”

With a “starving tiger pouncing on food” move, Su Yu flopped onto the soft sofa in the living room.

During the past two hours, he was absorbing spiritual energy at the Psychic Energy Storage Station.

Through absorbing spiritual energy, he broke through his realm, reaching level 30 and becoming a second-level mage!

After breaking through, he didn’t leave but continued to absorb spiritual energy until his body reached a threshold and he couldn’t absorb any more.

After the absorption of spiritual energy, Su Yu leveled up again, reaching level 31.

The absorbed energy needs to be digested. After completely digesting and absorbing it, he can engage in the next spiritual energy absorption.

After resting on the sofa for a while, Su Yu, dragging his tired body, took a shower and returned to the bed to continue playing the game.

After all, he hadn’t been in the game for most of the day. If he didn’t log in now, he’d waste his twelve hours of playtime for the day.

Lying in bed, touching the cold, empty bed, Su Yu suddenly felt something was missing.

“Hmm, maybe I should get a girl or a kitten to keep my bed warm Hmm, a kitten would be better. If it’s disobedient, it could warm up my stomach, unlike a woman.”

While daydreaming, Su Yu’s consciousness returned to the game world.

The tavern at Orleans City [House of Warm Wind].

A flash of white light and Su Yu appeared in the tavern.

“Boss, heat up two bowls of wine, and get a plate of fennel beans.”

“Alright!”

The tavern’s boss saw his regular customer and rushed to the kitchen right away.

Beep! Beep!

At this point, Su Yu received two private messages.

Upon opening the private chat interface, a personal message came from Red-Eyed Black Dragon:

“Boss Ke, how did you suddenly level up to 31? Isn’t the version limit 29 levels? ヾ(・`⌓´・)ノ゙”

Su Yu considered it and replied, “Oh, I killed quite a few aliens in real life, and then I leveled up.”

Red-Eyed Black Dragon: ” ”

Are you kidding me? Killing aliens? Why not claim the game was made by aliens too?

He resisted the urge to retort and replied, “You better have a look at the forum, it’s going nuts right now!”

“Sure.”

Su Yu opened the official built-in game forum.

In the forum, screenshots of his level were flying around, with posts discussing the matter everywhere.

Players looking at the screenshots were all in the discussion:

“Doesn’t the official website explicitly state that the version’s level limit is 29? What’s the deal with this level 31?”

“I’m doomed! I was thinking of catching up to Boss Ke in terms of leveling in the later version. Didn’t expect reality to slap me in the face so hard!”

“Could it be a special hidden task that allows one to break through the level cap?”

“Even a hidden task can’t be like this! Official explanation, please!”

The players’ discussion was heating up, and many were continuously @ing him, asking for his explanation.

Su Yu, being honest, copied what he had just explained to Red-Eyed Black Dragon and posted it on the forum.

Upon seeing Su Yu’s explanation about the aliens, the entire forum fell silent:

“Killing aliens? Have you been watching too many American movies?”

“Psychopath! Even if you really killed aliens, what does it have to do with leveling up in the game?”

“Even if you don’t want to speak up, don’t use such an excuse to shirk us!”

“Alright, I believe it. I’m going to kill some aliens right now.”

The players all replied indicating their disbelief, and Su Yu’s post quickly reached thousands of replies.

However, Su Yu didn’t mind too much.

After browsing for a while, he closed the official forum and opened the second private message.

This message was from his secretary, Swift: “Chairman, the [Temple of Heaven, Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests] will be completed in half an hour. Would you like to come back and have a look?”

“It’s being completed? I’m returning immediately.”

Su Yu took a [Hearthstone] from his backpack and activated it.

With a flash of white light, his figure vanished from the tavern.

Three minutes later, the tavern owner enthusiastically brought out a jar of wine and some crispy anise beans: “Here is your beer and anise Eh, where did the customer go?”

The tavern owner stood dumbfounded, staring blankly at the empty counter.

Not too long after, Su Yu rode Dima to the Wonderland parcel on the east side of Aphi’s village.

The area around the Prayer Hall was crowded like a major attraction during Golden Week.

Many players stood or sat around. Some were chatting loudly with friends, some were taking pictures, and there were even some barbecuing.

In the center of the Wonderland parcel, the [Temple of Heaven, Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests] was about to be completed, with the progress bar above the building showing [99%].

The [Temple of Heaven, Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests] resembled the real-life Prayer Hall. It was also a three-story circular temple, built on a three-tiered Han Baiyu marble platform surrounded by white stone railings.

However, the color and mural paintings of the building were different. This Prayer Hall bears a bit more of the Pandamen’s style, with more yellow and green, making it less solemn and more vibrant.

Since the Prayer Hall was about to be completed, many players held up their cameras, ready to capture the moment.

Finally, after about ten minutes, the [99%] progress bar jumped to [100%].

The base of the entire temple burst into a golden light, which circled up the eaves and finally shot up into the sky.

“Ding! The wonder building [Temple of Heaven, Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests] has been completed!”
