Chapter 986: The Great Battle of the Five Races_2 Chapter 986: The Great Battle of the Five Races_2 “This feeling is just too strange! One moment they were fighting to the death, and now they’re deeply in love?”

Watching the Void Legion fiercely battle at the edge, the players felt a multitude of emotions and repeatedly marveled at how fate plays with people.

…

…

The great battle between the five races lasted several weeks in the game.

Back in the real world, players like Zhong Feng and Cao Chengxiang, along with great cultivators, had to venture to Skru Star once again.

At 9 am on March 12th, Su Yu removed his gaming helmet and his consciousness returned to the real world.

After returning to the real world, Cat Morning Star immediately jumped out of his pet space and perched on his shoulder.

At the same time, a golden and a pink gaming helmet slowly floated up into the sky, and Alyssa and Tina also arrived in the real world.

Today, Alyssa, Tina, and Morning Star were also set to go to Skru Star, something they had been looking forward to for a long time.

When Tina returned to the real world, she immediately took off her helmet and happily jumped up and down on the spot, her actions making it clear she was very, very happy.

Alyssa’s expression didn’t change much, as calm as ever, but excitement could also be seen in her eyes.

The only regret was that Su Yu couldn’t join them.

“Nemesis, let’s set off!” Tina spun around on the spot and said to Su Yu with joy.

Now, the entire building where Su Yu lived was reinforced with his magic, the floor’s strength rivaling that of Sixth Order plate armor.

Otherwise, Tina’s spinning on the spot would have drilled a big hole through the floor!

“Alright! Let’s set off,” Su Yu nodded: “Zhong Feng and the others are already prepared at the headquarters, we’ll go there now and meet up with them.”

A silver-white teleportation array unfolded beneath the three humans and one cat.

Cat Morning Star smartly burrowed into the pet space to save Su Yu’s mana.

A flash of white light passed, and they disappeared on the spot, arriving at the Yan Mountain United Government Headquarters.

…

Half an hour later, a medium-sized troop transport ship took off from the Yan Mountain Headquarters and flew towards Donna’s home in the south of Imperial Capital.

This transport ship carried all the cultivators and players going to Skru Star.

The total number of Blue Star powerhouses heading to Skru Star was 26, with 2 ancient cultivators and 24 players.

The two ancient cultivators were none other than Prime Minister Cao Cao and Emperor Qin Shi Huang.

Prime Minister Cao Cao was there to preside over the grand scheme; Emperor Qin Shi Huang had never been to Skru Star, and with his strength, there wasn’t going to be any danger, so he joined the main force this time.

Out of the 24 players, the vast majority were Sixth Order players from foreign servers, with only Zhong Feng and Sky Dragon coming from the “Chinese server”.

Zhong Feng and Sky Dragon were on a mission. The remaining 24 players set out to hunt materials from Warcraft on the savage continent, while also participating in the final secret realm.

Besides the 26 Blue Star powerhouses, there were also Tina, Alyssa, and Morning Star, making three more headed for Skru Star.

Su Yu didn’t assign any tasks to the three of them but simply let them get acquainted with the environment, sightsee and incidentally draw the attention of the Skrull people.

…

The medium-sized troop transport ship had two levels.

The 22 foreign players stayed on the lower level, and the rest were on the upper level.

At that moment, the lower level of the transport ship was eerily quiet.

The players were either lying or sitting on the floor of the ship, silently preparing for the life-and-death trip ahead.

The pressure of this operation was immense.

Despite having ample experience provided by the pioneers and making sufficient preparations for this trip to Skru, they still could not afford the slightest negligence.

After entering the Barbaric Continent, they not only had to face challenges from Warcraft but also endure the pressure of Skuru bounty hunters; and, upon entering the Secret Realm at the endpoint, they also had to bear the heavy burden of a “50% death rate.” After all, no one knew if this Secret Realm could be perfectly cleared this time.

The only consolation was that this time there were no high-ranking players like Su Yu entering the Secret Realm.

Because of level restrictions, the highest-level Skrull people that players could encounter in the Secret Realm were only up to Sixth Order.

This was considered fortunate amidst the unfortunate circumstances.

…

Compared with the silent lower deck, the upper deck of the transport spacecraft was filled with jovial laughter and chatter.

The people on the upper deck were basically under no pressure.

There was no need to mention Sky Dragon and Zhong Feng; they had visited Skru Star more times than even Su Yu, so they were old hands at this. What pressure was there to speak of?

Prime Minister Cao Cao and Emperor Qin Shi Huang were of course not nervous either.

Although it was Emperor Qin Shi Huang’s first trip to Skru Star, his formidable strength meant he would not encounter any fatal dangers there, so there was no need for him to feel pressured.

As for Tina, Alyssa, and Morning Star, there was even less to say; the three of them would resurrect even if they died, so they had no worries at all about this trip.

Because of this, the upper deck of the transport spacecraft was a picture of harmony and joy.

Su Yu said to Zhong Feng and Sky Dragon beside him, “Zhong Feng, Sky Dragon, you guys are in for a tough time again on this trip!”

He reached out and ruffled Sky Dragon’s hair, laughing, “Especially you, Sky Dragon. Despite your young age, you’re in charge of the most important tasks. I really feel somewhat remorseful.”

This trip to Skuru star, Zhong Feng, Sky Dragon, and Prime Minister Cao Cao all had important tasks to carry out, especially Sky Dragon.

Zhong Feng’s main task in going to Skru Star was to deliver equipment forged by human craftsmen over the past month to Dragon Island; Prime Minister Cao Cao’s task was to deliver equipment made for the White-Headed Eagle Race to their territory.

Sky Dragon’s tasks were even heavier. She not only had to hand over hundreds of Space Rings manufactured in the past month to Cindy Doppler; she also had to investigate Cindy Doppler’s background; activate the endpoint Secret Realm on the Barbaric Continent; deliver the equipment requested by the Rhino Spirit Clan; and finally, bring back the munitions purchased from Cindy Doppler to Blue Star.

As a 14-year-old girl, she indeed bore a much heavier burden than Zhong Feng and Prime Minister Cao Cao, which was tough on her.

Before this, Su Yu had thought about taking over some of her tasks (like making contact with and investigating Cindy Doppler, purchasing munitions) to lessen Sky Dragon’s load.

But after giving it some thought, he found it was not feasible.

Firstly, Zhong Feng was to head to Dragon Island, which is on the eastern side of the Raging Sun Empire, while Beak Country is on the western side of Lun Kete Union, almost spanning an entire planet apart;
Secondly, Cindy Doppler has been mostly in contact with Su Yu and Sky Dragon and didn’t know Zhong Feng yet.

If Zhong Feng were to start investigating him on their first contact, it might raise even more suspicions from Doppler.

Considering all these reasons, the 14-year-old girl had to be entrusted with such significant responsibilities.

“Actually, it’s not a big deal.” Feeling the warmth of Su Yu’s palm, Sky Dragon’s cheeks reddened slightly.

She couldn’t help but glance at Alyssa and Tina, who were conversing in low voices not far away, and sighed softly to herself, “Ah, if only Nemesis didn’t have these two beloved confidantes, how great that would be!”

She smiled at Su Yu and said, “These tasks may seem heavy, but they are not particularly difficult to accomplish. My teacher used to tell me in primary school–‘I am the successor of communism.’ As a ‘successor of communism,’ I believe I can handle these tasks!”

“Successor…” Su Yu’s mouth twitched.

But he didn’t say anything more.

Truth be told, the biggest concern with Sky Dragon was still her young age. It would be better if she were a little older, in every sense of that.

“There’s one more thing.” Su Yu continued to speak to Zhong Feng and Sky Dragon, “Frequent trips to Skru Star severely impact your cultivation progress.

Every time you go to Skru Star, you waste 7 to 10 days of cultivation time, which seriously affects your advancement speed.

You both had the potential to reach the God Level peak before the big war starts, but now it seems there’s not much hope.”

“Actually, that’s not so bad,” Zhong Feng said calmly as he shook his head, “Regarding this, I’ve discussed with Sky Dragon, Mr. Meng, Shepherd in the Clouds, and all other players who could potentially advance to Divine Rank long ago.

Our plan is to advance to Divine Rank one by one a month before the outbreak of the war.

After all, the United Government doesn’t have that many resources, and advancing in this way is the most appropriate resource management strategy.

Based on the current progress of mine and Sky Dragon’s cultivation, we can completely advance to God Level within the month before the war starts, so you don’t have to worry too much about it.”
