Chapter 1442: 1341, Foster father

The howling around startled Su Yu.

Before coming in, he didn’t expect such a big commotion; everyone’s reactions were actually so intense.

Looking around now, almost every soul was teary-eyed, their spirits extremely unstable.

“What’s wrong? What happened?” Su Yu looked around, trying to make his soul’s aura more stable.

“It’s nothing… it’s just too boring inside!”

“Yeah, there’s nothing to do, it’s boring enough to drive someone insane!”

“This is even worse than being in prison! I served a few years before, and I must say, compared to now, prison seems like heaven!”

…

Everyone couldn’t help but pour out their grievances to Su Yu. In recent days, each of them was almost driven mad by the boredom!

This actually relates to the environment within the soul artifact.

In the “Void,” there are definitely no entertainment facilities.

Not only are there no entertainment facilities, but also nothing to occupy their time.

The only thing everyone can do is chat, that’s all.

When they first came in, they didn’t feel much; they usually gathered together to chat and pass the time, and life was relatively calm.

But gradually, everything has been discussed, leaving nothing more to say.

Everyone tried to chat with others around them, or play simple games like “soul chase.”

But souls are fragile and can’t play too openly.

Additionally, since souls don’t need to sleep, everyone gradually felt like they were in prison, and this feeling grew stronger with time.

The last time Su Yu came in it was harmonious; having been away for more than a month, everyone is restless.

“The past month you’ve been gone was worse than being in jail for us!”

“Boss Ke, save us from this!”

“If this continues, I’ll have a mental breakdown soon.”

Everyone started crying again.

Actually, it’s all because of Su Yu, because Su Yu promised to help everyone restore their physical bodies, they could hold on.

If not for Su Yu’s promise, or confirmation of their inability to leave, at least half would have broken down by now.

…

“Ah, so that’s the issue!” After understanding the situation, Su Yu couldn’t help but wipe his sweat.

It turns out everyone became like this because of boredom.

But putting himself in their shoes, he understood.

If Su Yu’s soul was also imprisoned in the “Void” with nothing to do, his condition wouldn’t be much better.

“Boss Ke, is the outside world okay?”

“What major events happened outside in the last month?”

“Weren’t you going to the Fegg Hub, have you already returned?”

Some souls around Su Yu asked.

However, compared to these normal questions, there were still more grievances, as everyone dreamed of getting out.

“Outside, well, there’re different areas. Blue Star hasn’t had any major events; after all, Blue Star is rather barren, not much better than here,” Su Yu answered, “But I just came back from the Fegg Hub, and a lot of major events happened there.”

“Oh? Fegg Hub? What happened there?”

“Boss Ke, could you tell us in detail?”

“You’ve come back, it seems there’s hope for us to restore our physical forms!”

The souls around Su Yu said with interest.

At this moment, Su Yu was already surrounded by layers of souls.

Not only did all the human souls in this section gather, but souls from other sections also came upon hearing the news, especially high-ranked souls of the sixth and seventh ranks.

“Ahem, I’ll tell everyone later,” Su Yu replied, “Once more souls gather, to avoid repeating myself.”

“Alright.”

“Okay.”

Everyone agreed.

Everyone was ready to listen to the story. Boss Ke going to the Hub Planet, a place they couldn’t even dream of, surely the story would be exciting.

But at this moment, Su Yu seemed to suddenly think of something.

He said seriously, “Earlier, everyone said they were very bored. Regarding this issue, I think I might have a solution. Of course, it’s just a temporary fix and might not address the root cause.”

“Oh? What solution?”

“Boss Ke, do you have a solution?!”

“No matter if it’s temporary, as long as it can help a bit, I suggest we do it quickly!”

Everyone immediately became excited, with ripples spreading through the space due to their emotions.

Compared to restoring physical bodies or distant events at Fegg Hub, everyone cared more about addressing the boredom.

Because boredom can truly be deadly!

“I’ll go ask AI Blue Whale if it can integrate external images into the ‘Void,’ ” Su Yu said, “If that’s possible, I can bring in some movies, TV dramas, or the recording of my trip to Fegg Hub.

Watching these should alleviate some of the boredom.”

“Really?!”

“Is this achievable?”

“This must be doable!”

“If you can do this, I’d be willing to work like a horse for you outside!”

Everyone became thrilled and excited.

If they could watch movies and dramas, even being in prison would be so much better!

If he could pull this off, Boss Ke would be a benefactor to all… no, a father figure!

Some around Su Yu even started calling out, “Father, this must work!”

“Father, we’re counting on you!”

“Drifting carelessly half a life, only regretting not meeting a wise master sooner…”

Seeing many already switched to calling him father, Su Yu quickly said, “Uh, kids… I mean, everyone, please calm down. This is just a thought I had, and it’s uncertain if it will work… let me go ask Blue Whale, and I’ll be back soon.”

After speaking, Su Yu’s soul left the “Void,” temporarily returning to the outside world.

As for the space vacated by Su Yu’s soul, of course, no one would occupy it.

Even nearby souls autonomously stepped back a few spaces, leaving more room for Su Yu’s return.

Su Yu did not disappoint.

A few minutes later, he returned to the soul artifact, appearing in the same spot as before.

As soon as he appeared, Su Yu loudly announced, “Everyone, this idea is feasible! Blue Whale indicated this concept is viable, and I’ll soon work on transmitting audiovisual content.”

“Really? That’s marvelous!”

“Wow!!!”

“Huh? We’re saved!”

“Father above, accept my bow!”

“Father, to think of this solution, you’re truly a genius!”

For a moment, the space was once again filled with soul vibrations!

And this time, the intensity was much higher than before, with some souls so excited they almost fainted!

This good news quickly spread from Su Yu to the periphery.

Many souls on the periphery couldn’t receive Su Yu’s soul signal, so they didn’t know what he was saying.

But upon hearing this good news, everyone was overjoyed.

For just this one benefit, Su Yu completely earned the title of “father” for everyone!
