At 10 a.m. on August 29, Sky Dragon received Su Yuâs invitation and rode the Howling Moon Wolf to meet him at the Silver Pine Spire.
Sky Dragon was now truly the top player among all (except Su Yu).
As a user of the Root Potion, her basic attributes were several times those of other players!
Top players like Snow Leopard and A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated could not beat her unless they also took template potions.
Walking into the quiet room, Sky Dragon looked at Su Yu, who was still reading, her expression somewhat complex: âNemesis, Iâm here,â she said.
âSky Dragon, good youâre finally here, find a seat and sit!â Su Yu closed his book and gestured towards a row of seats.
Sky Dragon sat down in the seat opposite Su Yu, crossed her arms and said, âIâm here for gold-plating equipment again, right?â
âYeah, how did you know?â
âNonsense!â Sky Dragon raised her eyebrows slightly. âBesides gold plating, what else could you possibly need me for?â
âAlright, letâs not talk about that.â Unable to out-argue her, Su Yu decided to shift the topic.
He then took out a [Gold Sparrow Interfacial Chain], [Fragment of Hifanâs Soul], [Hidden Dagger], [Soul Stealing Wand], [Master Level Elemental Ascension Potion], and 836 drops of [Tinaâs Blood] from his bag, lining them up neatly on the table.
The [Soul Stealing Wand] was a magical device gifted by Anduin that could amplify shadow spells;
The [Master Level Elemental Ascension Potion] was a high-quality potion that Nuclear Waste Water purchased from Master Dreyk. The use of it by Su Yu, a Sanctuary Mage, could boost his output power by 20%-30% instantly. It was perfect as a trump card.
Su Yu decided to gold plate all of these items; they would be extremely useful in the future on Skru Star.
âWow! Thatâs quite a lot of stuff!â
Seeing Su Yu taking out so many items all at once, Sky Dragon was slightly taken aback.
However, she soon realized why he was doing so, her gaze fixed on Su Yuâs face: âAre you going to undertake that task?â
As for the matter of going to Skru Star, Su Yu had revealed some information to Sky Dragon before. Now, she knew that Su Yu was about to embark on a highly dangerous mission on Skru Star.
âThatâs right.â Su Yu answered straightforward, âIâm going to meet the Game Supervisor of the Singer Civilization this afternoon at three oâclock before leaving Blue Star.â
âOh.â Sky Dragonâs eyes gradually dimmed, and her spirit seemed a little low.
She accepted Su Yuâs enchanting invitation and started to gold-plate the items on the table for him.
One after another, the game prompts appeared on her log-screen:
âDing, congratulations, enchanting succeeded! [Gold Sparrow Interfacial Chain] is now [Gold Sparrow Interfacial Chain (Gold)].â
âDing, enchanting failed, [Fragment of Hifanâs Soul] remains unchanged, retry?â
After nearly ten minutes, Sky Dragon had plated all the items on the table in gold.
During the course of enchanting, she didnât look at Su Yu, but was lost in thought, tilting her head as if thinking about something.
After the final item â the [Master Level Elemental Ascension Potion] â was plated with gold, Su Yu still had 681 drops of [Tinaâs Blood] left.
Which meant, on average, gold-plating each item only cost Sky Dragon just over 30 drops of [Tinaâs Blood]!
This fact made Su Yu incredibly relieved!
The chance of successfully gold-plating these high-ranked items was only 1%. If he had tried, it would have probably cost him around 500 drops of [Tinaâs Blood] to gold-plate all the items. But Sky Dragon only used up 155 drops, truly worthy of her lucky title!
Su Yu looked around in his backpack and took out the early acquired gadget [Sorrow of Fungus] too.
âSince thereâs plenty of [Tinaâs Blood], why donât you go ahead and gild this as well! Who knows, I might go to Skru Star and pretend to be a high-ranking son or something.â
âSure,â Sky Dragon nodded, using the enchanting panel to gild the [Sorrow of Fungus].
After using 42 drops of blood, the icy blade of the [Sorrow of Fungus] was covered with a dazzling layer of gold.
At this moment, Sky Dragon suddenly looked up at Su Yu: âNemesis, when do you reckon youâll return?â
After some thought, Su Yu said, âIâm not sure, a week at the shortest, orâitâs really hard to say.â

âI see.â Sky Dragon nodded slightly, then stood up and walked to Su Yu. She spread her arms, seeming to want to hug him.
Su Yu recoiled, seeking to refuse.
But Sky Dragon didnât care about this. She quickly stepped forward and embraced the seated Su Yu in her arms.
Su Yu:
As pushing her away wasnât an option, Su Yu decided to let Sky Dragon continue to hug him.
Sky Dragon didnât say anything, rather she held him tightly. Su Yu could even feel her somewhat chaotic heartbeat.
After what seemed like a long time, Sky Dragon softly whispered into Su Yuâs ear, âNo matter what, remember you have to come back alive!â
When she finished speaking, she gently kissed his ear, and then, with a [backflip] and [Sliding Shovel] move, she left the quiet room, and disappeared instantly.
âAh⊠What..,â Su Yu was a little dazed as he watched Sky Dragonâs retreating figure.
Under the larger backdrop of the Skru Star invasion, everyone would instinctively attach to stronger entities than themselves, hoping to better save their own lives in the future crisis.
At the national level, this would mean establishing a united Blue Star government to tackle the crisis;
At the personal level, it would mean strictly following government orders and trying to gather the most powerful forces accessible;
As for Sky Dragon, it manifested as her growing attachment to him, even resembling the feelings of a smitten young girl.
But Su Yu couldnât respond to Sky Dragonâs feelings. He had a lot of things to deal with, and couldnât afford to focus on romance.
Also, they werenât quite suitable. The age gap was too great. How could a college graduate date a junior high school girl?
He only hoped that after the crisis ended, Sky Dragon would be able to return to normal!
Just as Su Yu was lost in thought, Morning Star suddenly jumped out of the pet space and landed on his shoulder, looking at him with a smirk, âHow do you feel?â
Su Yu gave Morning Star an annoyed look and ignored her.
But, as if suddenly thinking of something, Su Yu raised an eyebrow, âYou want to know?â
Morning Star:
She suddenly had a bad feeling about this.
Su Yu hugged her without waiting for a response, and then swiftly kissed her fiercely under her ear.
Then he said nonchalantly, âIt felt something like this. Do you understand?â
The whole cat was stunned, with her initially soft body becoming rigid.
After being stunned for more than ten seconds, Morning Star turned into a starlight and dived into pet space. No matter how Su Yu called, she didnât respond anymore.
