Chapter 486: 485, Terrorist Attack 2.0_1
Just as Su Yu was contemplating which plants he should gild with marigolds next.
Bang!
A thunderous sound suddenly erupted from the north, as if something had exploded!
Su Yu and Elder Tao’s faces drastically changed.
They exchanged a glance, then sped towards the explosion’s epicenter.
Su Yu cast a [Thunder Armor] spell to significantly increase his speed of flight, and he arrived at the scene in just 10 seconds.
…
Looking down from the sky above, Su Yu saw that a large pit had been blown out of the slope north of Yunlu Mountain Base. The pit was filled with thick black smoke, and countless fragments of charred dirt were scattered from the interior to the exterior.
Using his Divine Sense to probe the dense smoke, Su Yu could only detect bits of what seemed to be shattered human bones and radioactive materials from an explosion.
Of course, such a large disturbance drew the attention of other high-ranking monks at the base.
The high-ranking monks flew over systematically from the mountain-top base, encircling the scene entirely.
Under the guidance of Emperor Taizong, some of the high-ranking monks worked together to cast a sealing spell, completely sealing off the radioactive materials from the bomb below.
“What happened?” Su Yu asked the high-ranking monks around him.
“Ah, it’s a terrorist attack. One happened half an hour ago when you weren’t here,” Elder Tao approached from behind and explained to Su Yu seriously.
“A terrorist attack? Who orchestrated it? How could a terrorist organization infiltrate so close to us?” Su Yu asked in succession.
Normally, if terrorists intended to attack Yunlu Mountain Base, they would not be able to breach the physical barrier of the three Blue Star military bases at the foot of the mountain.
Even if they could, they should be detected by the Divine Sense of the high-ranking monks within Yunlu Mountain. How could this terrorist get to this position, only three to four hundred meters away from the peak base before being discovered? What’s really going on?
“We don’t have the answers to your questions,” said Emperor Taizong to Su Yu slowly, after having finished the sealing spell, “If I have to guess who organized the terrorist attack, I think the odds are on the surrender faction of Blue Star.”
Emperor Taizong then sighed helplessly, “But as for why this terrorist was able to get this far undetected, we are equally clueless.”
In the midst of this, a monk of very ordinary appearance, dressed in a green hat, suddenly spoke up, “I may have an answer to your questions.”
After saying this, he transformed into a beam of green light and plunged straight into the black smoke below.
“Dangerous!” The monks around wanted to stop him. After all, the explosion was not completely clear, and there might be a second explosion. Going down now was undoubtedly risky.
But the monk in the green hat moved rapidly and disappeared into the thick smoke in an instant.
Su Yu shook his head and asked Emperor Taizong beside him, “Who is he?”
Unexpectedly, Emperor Taizong also shook his head, “I don’t know who he is. To be exact, he doesn’t even know who he is.” freēwēbηovel.c૦m
Emperor Taizong added, “He practices the ‘Heartless’ technique, which advocates transcendence and self-forgetfulness. After more than two thousand years, he has long forgotten his name, all his past experiences, let alone the dynasties he has witnessed.”
“Ah, I see,” Su Yu nodded, “So, how should I address this monk?”
“Just call him ‘Lily’.” Emperor Taizong smiled, “After all, that’s how we’ve been addressing him recently.”
…
While they were still chatting, Lily emerged from the dense smoke.
However, there were no traces of smoke blackened on him. He was just as clean as when he went in. It must have been some special method he used.
But besides Su Yu, no one cared whether he was clean. Everyone’s eyes were firmly fixed on Lily’s hand.
In his hand, he was holding a round, transparent crystal about the size of a beer bottle.
The crystal looked ordinary, but under the gaze of the monks, it shielded all the Spiritual Energy around it like one-way transparent glass, leaving none to be detected.
No wonder they couldn’t detect the terrorist’s movement, it was all because of this damn crystal!
“Spirit Shielding Crystal?! It’s actually a Spirit Shielding Crystal?!” A monk in the crowd exclaimed in disbelief.
It was clear that he knew what this thing was.
All the monks on the spot looked at the one who had named the crystal, their eyes seeming to ask, “What on earth is this thing?”
The monk gave a bitter smile, flew out, and spoke to everyone,
“I hate to admit it, but this kind of crystal appeared in my time, during the era of the Warring States. Its function is to shield all Spiritual Energy, making even a master of high-ranking spiritual energy indistinguishable from an ordinary person. Many assassins relied on these crystals to carry out assassinations. A large number of innocent high-ranking monks were killed. It can be said to be the darkest time in my era.”
“Later, it was said that Emperor Qin Ying Zheng collected all the Spirit Shielding Crystals in the world to build his tomb. Since then, the Spirit Shielding Crystal has never been seen again in the cultivation world. I haven’t even heard about it. I wonder how it reappears now.”
After listening to the monk’s account, everyone came to understand what had happened.
It’s been more than 2300 years since the Warring States, and it’s astonishing that something so ancient has resurfaced.
But now the most crucial question arose: How did the surrender faction come across such crystals? Could it be that the surrender faction established contact with the Skuru assassins, and these crystals were supplied by the Skuru people?
Whether the surrender faction obtained them on their own, or they were supplied by the Skuru people, it would be highly disadvantageous for the Blue Star monks.
The scene fell silent, everyone deep in thought, contemplating what to do.
…
Su Yu too, felt helpless against these terrorist attacks.
The only solution he could think of was to plant high alertness golden plants around the mountain range and use the messages transmitted by the plants to heighten the alertness of personnel in the base.
However, the marigold flowers had just been cultivated. To plant them extensively to cover the entire peak, it would take at least several weeks.
Su Yu shook his head, asking Elder Tao beside him, “Elder, are related departments aware of this?”
“They certainly are,” Elder Tao replied, “I notified them during the previous terrorist attack. They also promised to strengthen the guard forces here.”
Su Yu glanced at the military base at the foot of the mountain.
Now, the helicopters in the military base were taking off one after another, heading quickly towards the site to investigate the explosion.
He sighed, “Let’s hope that the relevant departments can conduct a thorough investigation and find the lair of the surrender faction. When they do, I will personally pay them a visit and make these traitors, who betray humanity for their own interests, pay the price!”
