Chapter 397: 396. Return to Aphi City (Extra Update) _1
A flash of white light, and Su Yu appeared on the quartz floor right in front of the mage tower in Aphi.
With his current state in the sanctuary, teleporting long distances no longer caused any residual symptoms like dizziness. Except for interstellar teleportation, of course.
Looking around, the doors of the mage tower were tightly shut and the surroundings were very quiet.
This quiet was inevitable. After all, only Little Kathy and Cat Morning Star had access to the mage tower which had no guards. Therefore, it was perfectly normal for it to be quiet.
Su Yu strode toward the mage tower.
Just then, a blue and white figure leaped from the third floor window and plunged directly into his arms. It was Cat Morning Star.
“Nemesis, you’re finally back! I’ve been waiting for you in the mage tower for over a week!” Morning Star said gleefully.
After Morning Star’s soul returned to the game world, her body, like Su Yu’s, appeared in Haiyan City.
She had flown straight back to the Goldfinch Empire without stopping in Haiyan City. Except for two days at Alyssa’s, she had been waiting in the Mage Tower for Su Yu’s return. And now, her wait was finally over!
Su Yu rubbed his chin against Morning Star’s silky fur, feeling excited as well, “Thank you Morning Star for saving my life. If it wasn’t for you, I may have already died on the Skru Star!”
“It’s my duty.” Morning star said, stretching out her cute cat head from Su Yu’s arms.
“You protect me in your world, You also need to protect me in this one. I only have one life in this world too.”
“Don’t worry about that. I swear I will protect you with my life!” Su Yu looked into Morning Star’s eyes and promised earnestly.
“Hmm.” Morning Star nodded and buried her head in Su Yu’s chest contentedly.
Little Kathy was originally chatting with Morning Star on the third floor. Sensing Su Yu’s return, she quickly ran downstairs and stood by the door frame, watching Su Yu and the cat.
“Ah, the bond between Lord and Morning Star is so good! I really hope they stay this way forever.” Little Kathy squinted her eyes slightly, thinking.
However, a sudden thought surfaced in her mind: “If only I could also dive into the arms of the Lord like Morning Star!”
This thought startled her.
Her face flared up in a sudden blush, and she turned and ran back to the third floor.
…
Su Yu had no idea what Kathy was thinking since he wasn’t a telepath.
He looked at Morning Star in his arms, “Morning Star, let’s go see Swift. The monster attack on my territories is about to begin. I have a lot to explain to her.”
“Alright.” Morning Star nodded, “Remember to visit Alyssa too. She must miss you a lot.”
Having said that, Morning Star suddenly realized that it might not be right for her to compete with her best friend for a man, did it?
Thinking about this, she climbed off Su Yu’s chest and leapt onto her shoulder, facing him with her tail as if she was self-reflecting.
Su Yu, unaware of Morning Star’s thoughts, flew up into the sky with her, flying towards the main city gate.
…
Aphi city was beautifully located; a wide Moonlight River to the south, a more than 1000 meter high mountain range, the Redback Mountains to the north, and the sea to the east. The city was situated by the mountain and the water, easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Therefore, the main gate of the city was naturally located on the western side.
On his flight west, Su Yu passed by the district of Aphi.
Aphi city today was much more prosperous than when he left it.
10 days ago, Su Yu had officially made Swift the acting city lord, allowing her to upgrade the [Territory Technology] in [City Hall] while Su Yu was away.
After 10 days of development Aphi City had officially entered into the electrical industrial era.
Iron smelters, oil refineries, machinery manufacturing plants, ore processing plants… sprouted like mushrooms after a spring rain in the industrial area south of the city.
Every road in the city had been widened, and cars and motorcycles were running around. There were phone booths everywhere. It felt like the era of steampunk.
Looking at all this, Su Yu couldn’t help but exclaim, “I guess in a few data pieces, the technology could progress to nuclear bombs. Should I perform a ‘nuclear bomb explosion in the sanctuary’? That would certainly be interesting!”
However, this thought was fleeting.
With his speed, he quickly arrived above the main city gate.
Now, the city walls were filled with players, ready and eager, preparing for the coming monster attack.
Aside from players, Su Yu noticed several NPC factions. In addition to the [Scholar’s Temple] faction mentioned by Swift, there was also a 1000-person Orleans elite garrison, Tina’s former Unicorn Legion, and Alyssa’s direct 500-person [Royal Guard].
Remember, the Goldfinch is currently at war with two empires! The fact that they could send several complete armies to assist shows how important Su Yu is to Alyssa.
…
Fiona, the captain of the Unicorn Knights, was the first to spot Su Yu’s arrival.
She was first overjoyed, then she announced loudly to the crowd, “It’s Nemesis, Your Excellency! Welcome back to the Aphi region, Your Excellency!”
Her words immediately caused a huge stir at the city gate.
Most of the players didn’t know Su Yu was online and turned their heads in surprise, looking up in the sky to locate Su Yu.
Upon spotting Su Yu, the players erupted into enthusiastic cheers! They cheered and jumped on the city wall. If the wall wasn’t sturdy enough, it might have collapsed under their weight!
Not only the players, the prestige of Su Yu in Goldfinch Army is also quite high.
Although he is not their commander, everyone is aware of the role Su Yu played in the war of restoration, single-handedly reversing the decline of the Goldfinch war.
Moreover, Su Yu had killed Grantex in a suicide attack, avenging the navy soldiers of Goldfinch who had died in battle. This has further boosted his popularity to a peak!
It could be even said that – now in the Goldfinch Empire, except for Empress Alyssa, Su Yu has the highest prestige, even though he is a foreign adventurer.
So when they saw Su Yu, the Goldfinch regular soldiers down below were waving and cheering at Su Yu, making the crowd below surge, turning it into a sea of happiness!
…
Reaching close to the city wall, Su Yu waved to the people on and at the foot of the city wall.
Powerful figures from several factions gathered around him, welcoming his return.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries with them, Su Yu landed on a tower with them.
This tower was the headquarters of the players for this monster attack. According to the coordinates, Swift should be here.
Upon descending to a position level with the tower, Su Yu saw Swift on the inside of the tower. With her were Snow Leopard, Red-Eyed Black Dragon, and a group of high-end players.
Seeing Su Yu land on the tower, everybody rushed over cheerfully to greet him.
