Chapter 315: Chapter 162: Forming an Alliance, Tie Long’s Speculation_2
Su Yu secretly thought to himself.
"..."
Li Changfeng was being stared at by Su Yu, and cold sweat was running down his back, fearing that if Su Yu made a wrong move, he would reveal his true form as an Evil God and eat him...
After looking at him for a while, Su Yu finally nodded, "I wanted to entertain the Deputy Corps Commander a bit, but since you’re in such a hurry, let’s not keep you any longer."
Li Changfeng felt a great sense of relief, respectfully saluted, and then turned to leave the Mechanical Hall.
He walked briskly, without saying a word.
Soon, near the city gate, he found his armored vehicle, got in, hit the gas pedal, and in no time, he was out of the city, leaving a trail of dust behind.
It left the people of Mechanical City dumbfounded.
As they watched Li Changfeng’s departing figure, they couldn’t help but exclaim:
"Why did this Deputy Corps Commander from War City run away so fast, as if fleeing for his life..."
After Li Changfeng left, Su Yu had the Mechanical Spirit send messages to Yang Lie, Feng Tian, Tie Xin, and other high-ranking officials.
He asked them to meet with Yue Cheng to discuss alliance cooperation and resource distribution.
Su Yu couldn’t be bothered with such details and handed them over to others.
After all, with so many people and opinions in Mechanical City, they shouldn’t be at a disadvantage dealing with Yue Cheng.
When the high-ranking officials of Mechanical City heard about the alliance with War City, they were taken aback.
"Alliance with War City? They’re going to send a development team to help us exploit the Dead Silence Wilderness resources? Are they really so kind-hearted..."
"War City has a large population and strong forces, could this be an excuse to annex us?"
"No need to worry too much; the trade teams sent by War City before actually had a pretty good reputation."
"But we can’t be careless; this is now full-scale development, involving significant interests, and it’s hard for War City not to be tempted."
"They’re called War City; they don’t seem like a forgiving power at first glance, don’t expect them to be too polite."
"Indeed, although our leader is powerful, War City also has seven-star experts and might not fear our leader!"
The crowd immediately became vigilant.
They were afraid that the so-called alliance was actually a ploy by War City to use as an excuse to annex Mechanical City.
They had finally secured such a safe and stable home in Mechanical City, and they didn’t want to lose it again.
In fact, they were overthinking it; in the eyes of War City, the Dead Silence Wilderness was just a barren, insignificant place, not something they would pay much attention to.
What they cared about was the person Su Yu.
"Just after defeating the Ghost Tribe, now comes War City?"
"It’s frustrating that our strength is insufficient, and we can’t help our leader against such opponents!"
"Later, when discussing resource distribution, who knows how much the envoy from War City will demand..."
The more they thought about it, the more worried they became.
With one enemy after another, their strength remained stagnant, offering little help to their leader.
Originally, they could still help Su Yu develop resources, but now War City wanted to take that too.
This gave them a deep sense of powerlessness and urgency.
At that moment, Su Yu added the two newly acquired cultivation methods to the exchange list.
Everyone’s personal terminals immediately alerted them.
"Gathering Spirit Meditation Method?"
"Steel Body Forging Technique?"
"These are... transcendent cultivation methods that can break through four-star, both in spirit and body categories? These are priceless treasures!"
"And each only costs 3000 points? That’s incredibly cheap!"
"Where did our leader obtain these? Could this be the secret of our leader’s strength?"
The crowd was overjoyed.
They had just been worried about not being able to enhance their strength, and in the next moment, their leader presented them with two precious cultivation methods.
What more could they say?
All they could do was cultivate diligently, using strength and loyalty to repay their leader’s generosity!
Of course, before diving into cultivation, they still had to hold a meeting to deal with Yue Cheng first!
The people of Mechanical City were now filled with endless fighting spirit.
Yue Cheng had no idea what awaited him...
...
After leaving Mechanical City, Li Changfeng put the pedal to the metal, racing through the Dead Silence Wilderness at speeds exceeding one hundred kilometers per hour, which was the limit of his armored vehicle.
After all, there were no traffic rules or speed limits in the Dead Silence Wilderness.
In just seven hours, he returned to War City and met with Tie Long.
Tie Long was a bit surprised to see Li Changfeng back so quickly: "What? The people of Mechanical City didn’t even keep you for a meal before sending you off?"
"What about Su Yu’s strength? How did the alliance talk go? And Yue Cheng?"
Tie Long fired a series of questions.
Upon hearing this, Li Changfeng hurriedly replied, "Su Yu’s strength is extremely terrifying, definitely a seven-star expert."
"And astonishingly, I sensed he can wield Ghost Energy!"
"Not only that, he maintained calm and rationale in the face of Ghost Energy’s corruption, which is utterly extraordinary."
"I suspect he might have been possessed by an Evil God summoned during that great war by the Ghost Tribe!"
"Right now, Mechanical City is the lair of this Evil God!"
Li Changfeng revealed his terrifying conjecture.
"What? Mastering Ghost Energy, possessed by an Evil God?"
"Tell me in detail! Describe everything you’ve seen and heard, every single detail of your experience."
Tie Long’s expression turned serious, prompting Li Changfeng to recount all his experiences at Mechanical City in great detail.
Li Changfeng dared not slack and immediately began to explain, detailing each observation and analysis for over an hour.
Finally, he finished, feeling parched after speaking for so long. ƒгeewebnovёl.com
Meanwhile, Tie Long fell into deep thought.
After waiting a while, Li Changfeng couldn’t help but ask, "Commander, what do you think? With an Evil God entrenched in the Dead Silence Wilderness, it’s a huge concern, how should we handle it?"
Tie Long pondered for another moment before speaking, "No need to worry too much; that Su Yu is probably not an Evil God."
"Although Evil Gods are bizarre and powerful, they are affected by human emotions, making them extremely erratic and unstable; they can’t be that calm."
"I suspect he might be a remnant of the Ghost Empire, possibly a direct successor of the Ghost Emperor, which would explain why he could eradicate the Ghost Tribe and rise so quickly within such a short time."
As the Commander of War City, Tie Long’s insights naturally surpassed those of Li Changfeng; he knew more secrets.
After listening to Li Changfeng’s narrative, he made his own judgment.
"Is that so?"
"But that kind of terrifying presence felt nothing like a living person, seemed omnipresent, constantly watching me, seeing through everything, almost godlike..."
Li Changfeng was still somewhat skeptical despite hearing Tie Long’s explanation.
His abilities were particularly suited for sensing, which was why Tie Long sent him to Mechanical City to probe into Su Yu’s background.
Earlier, while at Mechanical City, Li Changfeng always felt he was facing a non-human terrifying existence.
That feeling was definitely not human!
Wielding Ghost Energy and not being human, what else could it be? Naturally, an Evil God!
In fact, Li Changfeng was confusing the Mechanical Spirit with Su Yu.
The Mechanical Spirit was indeed not human, and in Mechanical City, it was omnipresent, monitoring everything.
Su Yu, on the other hand, wielded Ghost Energy, making him powerful and terrifying.
The key issue was the deep bond between the Mechanical Spirit and Su Yu, causing Li Changfeng’s senses to fail to distinguish between the two.
No wonder Li Changfeng felt Su Yu was not human, powerful, omnipresent, leaving him terribly frightened.
Tie Long seeing Li Changfeng say this, didn’t refute him but gravely said, "Your intuition should not be ignored either."
He chose to partially trust Li Changfeng’s sensory reports, after all, Li Changfeng had seen Su Yu in person, which was more reliable than Tie Long’s speculations.
Maybe Su Yu was just a calm Evil God? Anything was possible.
Tie Long, after pondering for a moment, spoke again, "As for whether Su Yu is an Evil God or a remnant of the Ghost Empire, we still need to probe!"
"You should select a batch of people to go to Mechanical City as a development team."
"Remember, these people must be carefully selected."
"As for you, it’s best not to go, to avoid danger."
Upon hearing Tie Long’s command, Li Changfeng immediately understood.
This development team for the alliance definitely shouldn’t include trusted individuals.
They could choose peripheral figures from War City.
That way, they could infer Su Yu’s true identity from the experiences of that group in Mechanical City.
