Killing Skrull Warriors, the Punishment Inflicted by the Singer Civilization
"This must be the 'butterfly effect' after rebirth!" Su Yu muttered to himself.
Things that had never happened in his previous life were now happening because of his rebirth!
Su Yu had used his helmet to drain most of the psychotronic energy from the spring, leaving the Yunlu Mountain spring depleted. To avoid punishment, the Skrull commander had taken desperate measures, causing the Tier 1 phantom to appear prematurely and two Skrull warriors who should never have left the spring to do so.
Everything seemed logical, yet things had already deviated from the correct track.
However, Su Yu had no time for sentiment; he had to deal with this matter as quickly as possible.
"How much of your mission is completed?" Su Yu asked sternly.
"Just started. It will take at least half a day to finish."
"Where is your companion?"
"In the CEO's office, sir."
"End the mission right now and get back to the spring!"
"But..."
"No buts. Execute the order!"
"Understood, sir. But my companion..."
"Never mind him. Go back by yourself first."
"Yes, sir."
Since the Inspector had given the order, the female Skrull warrior had no choice but to drop her current task and return to the spring to report.
...
Watching the female warrior walk out of the information department and take the elevator down, Su Yu chose not to kill her.
He could have killed her, but with so many people watching in the information department, doing so would completely expose him to the government's sight.
However, that Skrull warrior in the CEO's office...
Su Yu not only had the intention to kill him, but the urge was overwhelming!
Since they dared to step out of the psychotronic spring, they had to be prepared to pay the price!
As long as that Skrull warrior was killed, there would be irrefutable proof that the Skrull had left the psychotronic spring without authorization.
Bound by its own prestige, the Singer Civilization would certainly impose severe punishment on the Skrulls!
Of course, the prerequisite was to ensure that his own identity remained unexposed.
...
At this thought, Su Yu flashed into the women's restroom.
He entered the women's restroom to find a secluded spot to cast [Invisibility].
There was no help for it; the information department had too many males and very few females, making the women's restroom the best location to cast [Invisibility].
Fortunately, the women's restroom was completely empty.
Three seconds later, cloaked in [Invisibility], Su Yu left the information department and took the elevator up to the CEO's office on the 19th floor.
...
The 19th floor was a vast open-plan space featuring a rooftop garden in the center, the CEO's office on the east side, and the vice president's office on the west side.
At this moment, the CEO was not in the office; only a few cleaning ladies were wiping the walls in the hallway.
Walking down the corridor, through the floor-to-ceiling glass windows of the CEO's office facing the garden, Su Yu saw one and only one figure inside—a young man acting like a secretary was gathering information inside the office.
During the final seconds of his [Invisibility] duration, Su Yu arrived in front of the CEO's office door.
Crack!
A surge of current poured out, and the digital lock was instantly destroyed.
Su Yu kicked open the door and darted inside using [Blink].
In an instant, his figure appeared right beside the "CEO's secretary."
This "CEO's secretary" was emitting a faint trace of psychotronic energy—without a doubt, he was a Skrull!
Without wasting any breath, Su Yu directly unleashed the lightning he had been gathering in his palm for a long time.
Su Yu only wanted him dead!
...
After all, this Skrull warrior was a well-trained soldier.
The moment Su Yu cast [Blink], he had already reacted.
He reached inside his suit, pulled out a translucent pellet, and crushed it forcefully. A gray, translucent defensive force field enveloped him.
The lightning in Su Yu's hand slammed entirely into the force field.
Boom!
With a deafening explosion!
Su Yu's figure was knocked back, and a huge hole was burned through the Skrull warrior's defensive force field by the massive current.
However, Su Yu moved swiftly. The moment he was knocked back, he executed a second [Blink] to close the distance rapidly, channeling a massive amount of lightning straight through the burned hole.
Mages were naturally a ranged class, but under Su Yu's operation, he played it with the flair of a "melee mage"!
...
The Skrull warrior was utterly shocked.
He never expected Su Yu to pierce his defense in a single strike and close in almost instantaneously.
At this juncture of life and death, he could no longer care about the bullshit red line of "not actively attacking Blue Star humans." He quickly drew a laser gun from his waist and fired at Su Yu.
Hum—
The laser shot from the barrel, instantly piercing several walls behind Su Yu.
However, the laser failed to harm Su Yu; without even using [Blink], he simply sidestepped and nimbly dodged it.
At the same time, a mocking voice echoed in the Skrull warrior's ear: "The Solar Empire's Sun-36 laser gun? Holding such trash, it seems you aren't valued much in the First Vanguard Team after all."
This voice was spoken in pure Skrull Common, leaving the Skrull warrior utterly terrified.
Who on earth was this enemy? Wasn't he a Blue Star human? Why did he know the Skrull language?
...
But he no longer had the strength to ask questions.
The huge arc of lightning transformed from Su Yu's second [Lightning Arrow] struck him and wreaked havoc inside his body, causing most of his limbs to lose sensation.
Moreover, Su Yu always believed in "taking advantage of his illness to kill him," holding back no mercy whatsoever. [Lightning Arrow] after [Lightning Arrow] left his hands in succession until he was certain of the kill.
Su Yu had actually considered whether to leave a living captive for the Huaxia government, but considering the Skrulls' exceptional camouflage abilities, he decided it was better to just kill him.
...
The cleaning ladies in the hallway heard the commotion coming from the CEO's office and immediately began whispering among themselves.
"What was that sound?"
"Wasn't that an electrical short circuit?"
"Come on, let's go check it out."
They clustered together and headed toward the CEO's office.
By this time, the Skrull warrior had already been slain.
Without overthinking, Su Yu picked up the laser gun from the dead Skrull warrior, took a running start, shattered the glass, and leaped down from the 19th floor.
Mid-air, Su Yu did not forget to put on his Ultraman mask.
The howling wind rushed past his ears as Su Yu fell rapidly from the high altitude.
It didn't matter, though; his third [Blink] was firmly gripped in his hand.
Whoosh!
A flash of white light later, Su Yu stood steadily on the solid concrete ground.
...
...
What Su Yu did not know, however, was this:
Approximately five seconds after the Skrull warrior fired his laser gun at him,
In the sky above the peak of Yunlu Mountain,
A massive black spatial rift tore open.
From within the spatial rift, vast, star-like blue energy smashed vertically downward, striking the Skrull fleet below head-on.
Boom!
Dozens of ships in the Skrull fleet offered no resistance whatsoever, instantly reduced to dust under the baptism of the blue energy!
At the same time, all the other 3,731 Skrull vanguard teams across the globe received a stern warning:
"It has been detected that some among you have left the psychotronic spring without authorization and even launched attacks against Blue Star humans outside the psychotronic spring. This has severely violated our shared desire for peace and mutual development, and runs contrary to the lofty ideal of maintaining harmonious coexistence among all civilizations..."
"As punishment, the Skrull forces within Psychotronic Spring No. 001 have been eliminated, and this spring will be placed under the administration of Blue Star humans for one year."
"Should a similar incident occur again, we will consider revoking your qualifications as invaders of the Skrulls!"
