Chapter 274: Luo Jing's Analysis

To say that Du Busi does not hate Mingde Hall would be a lie, and to say that Mingde Hall does not hate Du Busi would also be a lie.

But to say that Su Yu does not hate the Body Sect and Mingde Hall, that must be the truth.

There must always be someone to play the fool, but that person absolutely cannot be oneself; facts prove that none of those who can play the fool are ordinary people.

Regarding this matter, Xuan Ziwen once asked Su Yu if he felt any sense of guilt.

Su Yu replied indifferently: "I was almost beaten to death by them with a single punch at the time, so collecting some interest isn't excessive, is it?"

To this, Xuan Ziwen fell silent...

The deliberation in the Sea God Pavilion was still ongoing, but the focus later shifted to the upcoming rescue.

"Xuan Lao, my idea is to hope that we can split the team into two; for the candidates of the second team, I hope Wang Qiu Er will lead them."

Bei Bei's plan was actually to split the forces into two paths; once one path failed, the other would still have hope of success.

"If there is hope, I hope Su Yu can lead the team. Last time the Sun Moon Empire retreated, Su Yu led us to cleverly avoid the Sun Moon Empire's encirclement."

Zhang Lexuan looked at the empty seat next to Wang Dong'er, and the light in her eyes gradually dimmed.

Xuan Lao took a deep look at Zhang Lexuan and said: "There is no need to discuss this matter. Su Yu will not go; he has already graduated from the academy."

"The rescue plan this time is as follows..."

…………

The Sea God Pavilion meeting was very long, and this time it lasted for a full morning before it ended.

After the meeting ended, everyone dispersed. Wang Qiu Er looked at Wang Dong'er and asked indifferently: "Are you really going?"

"Although Su Yu doesn't want me to go, I insist on going. I am a person of the Three Great Empires, and I will not shrink back from this plan," Wang Dong'er said firmly.

Wang Qiu Er looked at Wang Dong'er and couldn't help but shake her head, "Perhaps your strength is indeed much stronger than before, but..."

"But this operation is still full of crises. Staying by his side is the best choice, right?" Wang Dong'er looked at Wang Qiu Er, her beautiful eyes showing no ripples.

Wang Qiu Er nodded, "Yes, analyzing it from Su Yu's perspective, you should indeed stay with him. To some extent, you are actually one of his weaknesses; even the academy's students are his weaknesses."

"You are right, but this time he supports me."

…………

"Today, I, Kong Deming, hereby announce that Luo Yu will become a special consultant of my Mingde Hall!" As Kong Deming's voice fell, applause in Mingde Hall lasted for a long time.

This scene was outside of everyone's reason, but also within their expectations.

From the perspective of seniority, Luo Yu's seniority was too shallow. From joining Mingde Hall to now succeeding to the position of special consultant, it had only been five years—from observing and learning in the laboratory, to later participating in the Number Two research, to later being unrivaled among the young generation of Mingde Hall, and then to capturing the elites of the Three Great Empires alive.

Any one of these deeds, if taken out and placed in the Sun Moon Empire, would look like the hope of an era.

It was outside of reason because no one had ever been able to promote at such a speed and create such astonishing miracles like Luo Yu!

It was within expectations because having such a legendary person serve as a special consultant for Mingde Hall was not a strange thing at all.

"Today, succeeding to the position of special consultant of Mingde Hall is also the beginning of my formal service as a teacher at Mingde Hall. Everyone here knows that I have created a brand-new high-strength metal. I believe you have all heard your teachers talk about the performance of this metal material in class. Now, I hope you can also take seriously the Soul Guidance Material Science that I have pioneered. This brand-new path is a major step in the history of soul guidance development. Everyone, the hope of the future is in your hands. I have opened the door to a new era for you; the road ahead is left to you! The future of the Sun Moon Empire is also left to you!"

This was a passage from Luo Yu's succession, and it was also his entire speech.

The will of the era slowly bloomed upon him; he, Luo Yu!

He is the will of this era of the Sun Moon Empire!

…………

"Your Majesty, Luo Yu has officially succeeded as the special consultant of Mingde Hall." Ju Zi slowly presented the decision of Mingde Hall.

Xu Tianran smiled indifferently, "Ju Zi, these are all within expectations, aren't they?"

"Yes, the current Luo Yu is already a Level 7 Soul Engineer. Although his soul power cultivation is a bit behind, his strength is not something a Soul Saint can compare to. How I wish that day would come sooner."

A flash of joy crossed Xu Tianran's eyes. He did not worry about anything regarding Luo Yu; he was even looking forward to the day Luo Yu achieved the rank of Level 9 Soul Engineer or became a Title Douluo. He knew Luo Yu's value very well, and he also knew Luo Yu's strength very well. Although Luo Yu's initial aptitude was not top-tier, under the unsparing cultivation of Mingde Hall and himself, Luo Yu's aptitude could now be said to have been forcibly raised.

What was spent on this was all their heart's blood, and all of this was worth it.

Everything was worth it!

Number Two was completed, and Spirit Metal was created by Luo Yu. In just a few short years, Mingde Hall forcibly withstood tremendous pressure and carried the Sun Moon Empire forward rapidly for another hundred years!

"One day, I will personally destroy the Star Luo Empire and avenge my father and mother!" Ju Zi secretly clenched the handkerchief in her hand, and waves of grief emerged in her heart.

She had waited too long for this day...

Her bet had never been placed on Luo Yu, but Xu Tianran had relied on Luo Yu to forcibly stabilize the entire situation—the Three Great Empires, Mingde Hall, the Number Two Experimental Subject...

Everything stemmed from that initially unremarkable youth.

"Issue an imperial decree, reward heavily..."

A faint voice sounded from the great hall, "All I can do is support you unsparingly. Luo Yu, don't let me down."

The next day.

In the imperial court, under the strong demand of the military, Luo Yu was appointed as a Great General, commanding the border defense legions.

This news caused the military to collectively shout "Long live His Majesty."

From then on, Luo Yu officially joined the military and became one of the important high-level core figures of the military.

…………

Luo Jing, member of the Shrek Supervisory Team, Level 70 soul power, martial soul Qingzhou Ruler.

"Luo Jing, you have now completed enough missions. When do you plan to take the academy's graduation examination?" Yan Shaozhe looked at Luo Jing's full resume and felt deeply gratified.

Luo Jing looked at Yan Shaozhe, shook his head, and said: "Dean Yan, I need to rest for a while. The missions of the Shrek Supervisory Team have taught me a lot, and now I have gained many insights, so I want to stabilize my soul power first before considering my graduation examination."

Luo Jing actually intended to put off the graduation examination for the time being; he was waiting for the system to issue a mission. Last time he completed the Shrek Supervisory Team's mission, it increased the age of all his Soul Rings by a full hundred years.

There was no reward for completing those things on his own initiative; I have to say, the system is really a good thing.

Luo Jing: Indigenous person of the new era of Blue Star, currently the eldest young master of the Luo Family of the Star Luo Empire on Douluo Continent.

Soul Power: Level 70

Martial Soul: Qingzhou Ruler, Blue Silver Emperor.

Soul Ring: Yellow, Yellow, Purple, Purple, Black, Black, Black. (Note: The second martial soul has no added Soul Ring yet.)

Soul bone: 100,000-year Wind Demon Wolf Right Leg Bone (Note: no other additions).

Assets: 1,000,000 Gold Soul Coins.

…………

All of Luo Jing's data appeared concretely in his mind; during the time he was executing missions in the outside world, he had not paid as much attention to news from Shrek as before.

Now that he had returned to the school, it was the time for rest and gathering intelligence.

"This time we intend to rescue the elite of the Three Great Empires; your Luo Family also has some people trapped in the Sun Moon Empire. For this mission, do you want to participate?" Yan Shaozhe narrowed his eyes, carefully sizing up Luo Jing.

"Mission? What mission?"

There was actually a mission; let's hear about it.

Luo Jing carefully searched his mind for missions during this time period; if he really had to say, there was only one mission, and that was to rescue the hostages.

In the original plot, the main characters of the Three Great Empires all escaped back, and only a batch of NPCs were captured. This time it was quite interesting; except for Shrek's, everyone was captured. I really don't know what kind of genius Luo Yu is, but in the original work, one could not find a trace of this person's existence at all.

Perhaps because of the butterfly effect caused by the transmigrator Su Yu, such a terrifying opponent was created.

"This time we at Shrek have reached an agreement with the Three Great Empires. For the future rescue of the hostages, we have formed a team. With your current strength, if you participate, our chances of winning will increase by another point. So, Luo Jing, are you interested?" Yan Shaozhe highly approved of Luo Jing's ability to execute missions these days, so he also extended an invitation to Luo Jing.

Damn it, I'm not going; the rescue mission is a complete pit. Huo Yu Hao doesn't even have the Poison Scripture, what the hell am I going to save!

Luo Jing knew well that he wasn't stubborn enough to go head-to-head with the Sun Moon Empire's army. Judging by the current situation, if he went, he would just be serving himself up on a platter, so he had better play it safe to avoid being finished off on the spot by Su Yu if he were exposed.

No, I have to lay low.

"Having Junior Brother Huo Yu Hao and the others is enough. My martial soul is not some powerful Support System or offensive martial soul, and I have no way to perform large-scale Control. My role wouldn't be significant if I went. Moreover, having just returned from the Shrek Supervisory Team, my own situation has not yet stabilized. I will not participate in this mission, but I will definitely go next time."

Luo Jing used a few high-sounding excuses to brush it off. Regarding this rescue operation, he was not sure if it would be the same as the original work, and there were too many variables. The butterfly effect caused by Su Yu had created such a terrifying opponent as Luo Yu; adding himself to the team now would be complete suicide.

Judging from Su Yu's current flaws, Su Yu's flaw is the Su Family, but the main figures of the Su Family were killed by the Holy Spirit Cult. If I set the target on...

Uh... forget it, I can't beat that bastard, better not mess with Wang Dong'er.

Wait, is there a problem?

Lying in the dormitory, Luo Jing carefully recalled Su Yu's growth trajectory; it seemed that many problems could be explained, but one problem was very obvious.

That was the matter of the Su Family being attacked by the Holy Spirit Cult, resulting in the deaths of over a hundred people.

From the perspective of the Holy Spirit Cult, they had absolutely no need to do this. Could it be that just for Tang Ya and Ma Xiaotao, they risked being discovered by the Title Douluo of the Star Luo Empire's capital to take crazy revenge on Su Yu's family?

It's possible, but Luo Jing still felt there was a problem.

The current situation was as if he had already approached the answer, but it was still separated by a layer of hazy mist.

"Wait, I think I know something. I'll write a letter; I have to go ask who exactly died in the Su Family! As long as I know who died, I'll probably be able to figure it out. I really am a genius! Hahaha..."

Luo Jing immediately wrote a letter and ordered someone to deliver it to the Luo Family in the Star Luo Empire at top speed.

One day later, Luo Jing received a reply. The letter told him that those who died in the Su Family were basically people from Su Xinyuan's lineage. The Luo Family was also a noble of the Star Luo Empire, and their intelligence in this regard was very well-informed. At the same time, it included a list of casualties and their relationship to the Family Head.

Luo Jing carefully examined the list, comparing them one by one with their relationship to Su Yu's father, Su Xinyuan. After comparing for a long time, he didn't find any problems. Most of these people were collateral branches, and even if some were direct descendants, they were basically not well-regarded.

From this list, it was difficult to see any clues, but Luo Jing discovered a new lead.

He found that Su Xinyuan had once studied at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy, and Su Yu's mother, Mu Hanyan, had also once been a student at Mingde Hall.

Connecting these clues, plus Su Yu's identity as a transmigrator, Luo Jing had a new guess.

These people didn't die, but were sent to the Sun Moon Empire!

Openly repair the plank road, secretly march to Chencang!

"If this is the case, it can indeed get rid of the Star Luo Empire's control, but the Su Family was just thrown away like that; doesn't he feel bad? If it's like this, then the Su Family's massive assets would basically be unlikely to be fully controlled in his own hands."

A new problem was born. The result of doing this was completely not worth the loss. According to the temperament of the Three Great Empires, plus the talent and foresight of Su Yu, the transmigrator, the Su Family's path would only get wider and wider. Su Yu shouldn't be stupid enough to do something that puts the cart before the horse, right?

"Which one is the real one?"

Looking at the draft paper covered in his own scribbles, Luo Jing only felt that he seemed to be playing an extremely brain-burning detective game.

He was the detective, and Su Yu was the deeply hidden suspect.

"Then let me make an assumption: suppose they really faked their deaths and then escaped to the Sun Moon Empire. But such a large group of people, not to mention that Mu Hanyan and Su Xinyuan were both former students of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy—if they really were traitors, it would definitely cause a sensation in the Sun Moon Empire. The Sun Moon Empire side would also be unlikely to take them in secretly. Once this kind of thing blows up, it will be a blow to the internal forces of the Three Great Empires. For the Sun Moon Empire, this is absolutely all benefit and no harm. But now that so much time has passed since this incident, there hasn't been a single whisper from the Sun Moon Empire side..."

Could it be that I guessed wrong?

Luo Yu officially succeeded to the position of Special Consultant of Mingde Hall.
