Chapter 553: 550, Fake News_1


    After using 78 drops of [Tina’s Blood], Sky Dragon sessfully coated both items in gold.


    Su Yu is left with 603 drops of [Tina’s Blood].


    Sky Dragon was as lucky as always. At a 1% chance, it cost her less than 40 attempts per item to seed, saving Su Yu a lot of blood.


    After sessfully coating the two items, Sky Dragon exhaled softly.


    She turns to Su Yu, smiles, and asks, “Are you nning to head to Skru Star tonight?”


    “Yes, no time to waste, I’ll go tonight,” Su Yu nodded seriously, “But I also need to prepare after I log off, like getting some gold for trade.”


    “Safe travels!” Sky Dragon took a sip of her juice, stood up from her seat, and slowly walked towards Su Yu.


    Su Yu was safe for the night, and this also prevented the rtionship between him and Tina from developing (as Su Yu had originally nned to go to Skru Star with Tina). Two birds with one stone!


    “I’m a genius!” she thought, proudly.


    Su Yu put away the two artifacts.<div>


    He saw Sky Dragon approaching him and looked at her suspiciously: “What do you want?”


    “Oh, nothing!” Sky Dragonughed.


    She came right up to Su Yu, leaned in and pointed at her lips, “I’ve given you such a brilliant idea, aren’t you going to show your appreciation?”


    Seeing Sky Dragon like this, Su Yu’s mouth twitched involuntarily, “Maybe in 4 years, we can talk about it then.”


    “Hmph!” Seeing Su Yu was unresponsive, Sky Dragon couldn’t help but roll her eyes.


    She executed a “backflip” followed by a “backyout somersault” and flew out of the window near the street.


    But before she leaped out the window, she shouted at Su Yu, “I’m off then! I’m going to incubate my panda…oh, and don’t forget to pay the bill!”


    Sky Dragon’s figure disappeared from the window.


    Seeing Sky Dragon finally left, Su Yu exhaled deeply.


    The current Sky Dragon seemed to be using her young age to take advantage of him by flirting incessantly.


    “I’ll take care of her when she turns 18,” Su Yu thought to himself.


    ….


    He now has 5 minutes left on his 12-hour online session, time to prepare for offline.


    But then, Su Yu suddenly thought of something: should he make the act more convincing?


    yers didn’t know about his original n to go to Skru Star after Tina’s breakthrough, and if his alter ego had any discrepancies from his genuine persona, yers would still notice.


    But what if he let slip the n to wait for Tina to break through before going to Skru Star, would the effects be better?


    Who should he leak this to?


    It needed to seem unintentional for the leak, otherwise, it might backfire.


    Suddenly, an idea crossed his mind, a perfect candidate who went by the game name “All Roads Lead to Rome”.<div>


    “All Roads Lead to Rome” was a guild leader in the chat room, from a guild called “Golden Arches”, ranked 83rd in the top 100 Chinese guilds.


    But unlike other guild leaders, Rome had a knack for spreading news from his chat room to the forums.


    And he was swift. A big piece of news would show up on the forum just a second after it appeared in the chat room.


    So he was known to everyone as “bbermouth”.<div>


    As long as Rome was online, Su Yu was confident that he could “unintentionally” spread the news.


    …


    First, check the guild leader list, Rome was currently online.


    And as luck would have it, “Red-Eyed ck Dragon” just tagged him in the guild leaders’ chat room, asking him about his future ns and whether he intended to continue with the scenario campaign missions.


    Red-Eyed had leveled up by 4 levels in those battles, even surpassing the yers who had been grinding—once he got a taste of that, he hoped that Su Yu would undertake more scenario campaign missions and pull him up further.


    So, Su Yu answered in the guild leader’s chat room: “@Red-Eyed ck Dragon, I don’t have ns to continue with scenario missions recently.”


    Red-Eyed: “(_ ゝ`) Really?”


    Su Yu: “The main reward from the scenario missions is experience points (Pet Food), I don’tck pet food so I don’t want to waste my time.”


    Su Yu: “After Tina’s breakthrough, I n to head to Skru Star for a spin, so I’m going to do more hidden missions and get some useful gear and tools.”


    Shepherd in the Clouds: “Wait! Boss Ke, you’re nning to go to Skru Star?”


    Red-Eyed: “Boss Ke, you can’t just announce your ns early! (???!)/ If there’s a spy in this chat room, your whereabouts will be exposed to the Skru!”


    Red-Eyed: “Just like old Shepherd there, he has bright eyes and bushy brows, but what if he’s a traitor after all?”


    Shepherd in the Clouds: “…”<div>


    Su Yu: “My bad, I didn’t think that far… Let’s just keep it to ourselves.”


    All Roads Lead to Rome: “[Tears] Oh no! I’ve already screenshotted and posted it on the forum! I’ll go and delete it now.”


    Su Yu: “This…”


    Red-Eyed: “Rome already posted? Then I’m afraid it’s toote. In the time we’ve been chatting, your post has probably been forwarded by numerous people… we should think about a contingency n.”N?v(el)B\\jnn


    …


    Red-Eyed was right. In just those few moments, Rome’s post had garnered over 100 replies and 300 shares.


    Su Yu’s n was aplete sess; the message was “identally” out.


    …


    News about Su Yu was always the headline on the forum.


    So, in the following minutes, the news spread like wildfire across the forum—virtually every yer who had logged in knew that Su Yu would be traveling to Skru Star after Tina’s breakthrough.


    After the initial excitement, the yers felt worried.


    Immediately, some yers asked on the forum, “Given the broad discussion, the Skru must also know, right?”


    A yer responded: “Err, they probably do. The Skru couldn’t possibly have failed to nt spies in ourwork.”<div>


    “So…@[Boss Ke], you should change the date! If the Skru know you’reing and make preparations in advance, it’ll be too dangerous!”


    “Yeah, @[Boss Ke], we suggest changing the date!”


    The discussion online was buzzing.


    …


    The yers’ concerns were not misced.


    At the same moment when the news broke out, Monck, the suprememander of the Giant Skru Base at Elbert Peak in the Rocky Mountains, received the intelligence.


    The Skru’s cyber technology far outstripped that of the people of Blue Star. They could effectively get around all countries’ firewalls, except for China’s isted LAN.


    Of course, they were unable to prate the game “Evolution” with their cyber technology.


    However, they did have agents monitoring the official forums and the core discussion groups of severalrge guilds 24/7.


    So immediately, Monck received the intelligence from China.
