Chapter 598: 595, Out of Money_1
The process of making the clone was just like last time.
The hair on the right exuded a hot pink light and separated from the other hairs, quickly forming a pink sphere in mid-air.
This pink sphere gradually transformed into a human-like shape, becoming an exact copy of Su Yu.
Meanwhile, Su Yu’s spiritual power was automatically split, with one percent merging into this new clone.
However, the feeling of his spiritual power splitting gave Su Yu a sort of PTSD. He was immediately reminded of the sensation of his soul tearing and the heart-wrenching pain when his last clone died.
It seemed that he would have to take proper care of this clone and prevent it from venturing into dangerous areas.
…
Once the clone was made, Su Yu gave it detailed instructions.
Without any hesitation, the clone put on the spare Mage equipment that Su Yu had prepared for it, and went into the Star Realm teleport gate to hunt rodents.
After sending the clone away, Su Yu looked at Morning Star: “Morning Star, what should we do now? Should we go see Bernina directly, or go see Alyssa and Tina first?”
“Um…” Morning Star thought for a moment, then replied: “I think we should go see Alyssa and Tina first. After meeting them, we can all go to Sunny Wind Village to find Lady Bernina together, so we won’t waste too much time.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
“That works, let’s go.” Su Yu picked up Morning Star, who was lying on the table, and flew towards the grand teleportation array at the center of Aphi city.
Morning Star buried her head in his chest, quietly healing her injuries.
As Morning Star was heavily wounded and showed no intention of returning to the Pet Space, Su Yu slowed down his flight speed, so the journey took a bit longer.
But Su Yu wasn’t idle during this time.
During this journey, he took the opportunity to check his backpack.
A lot of new items had been added to his backpack, all “legacy” left from his previous clone.
His last clone did a commendable job. Despite only living for over three days, the clone had obtained quite a bit of good stuff in the game during that time.
Its main task was to trigger hidden quests on the Pandamen mainland according to Su Yu’s guidance and obtain golden potions after completing these quests.
It was worth celebrating that in these three days, the clone had obtained a total of 42 bottles of various level golden potions and some other less important golden items.
This 42 bottles of golden potion belonged to all ranks, including primary, intermediate, and advanced levels. Their effects were diverse, some restored life points, some restored mana energy, and some functional ones like the [Speed Boosting Potion] that could increase flight speed.
Su Yu stretched out his hand, and a bottle of golden [Primary Life Recovery Potion] appeared in his hand, flashing a dazzling golden light under the reflection of the sun.
Without hesitation, he used [Point Star Hand] to start upgrading this potion.
“Ding, do you want to spend 10 units of spiritual energy coin to strengthen [Primary Life Recovery Potion]?”
“Confirm!”
“Ding, [Primary Life Recovery Potion] has been upgraded to [Intermediate Life Recovery Potion], significantly enhancing the effect of life recovery!”
“Ding, do you want to spend 100 units of spiritual energy coin to strengthen [Intermediate Life Recovery Potion]?”
“Confirm!”
“Ding, [Intermediate Life Recovery Potion] has been upgraded to [Advanced Life Recovery Potion]…”
…
Morning Star, noticing the rich Star Force radiating from Su Yu’s palms, lifted her head to look at his hand.
After a little while, she perked her ears and asked: “Nemesis, is this potion left by your former body double?”
“Yes,” Su Yu responded.
Thinking about the horrid state of his clone’s death and acknowledging that if it wasn’t for the clone, he could have been the one to die, Su Yu fell silent again.
He stretched out his other hand to stroke Morning Star’s head and solemnly said, “I promise I will avenge you and that clone, definitely!”
“I know,” Morning Star didn’t seem to want to say more, she just buried her head into Su Yu’s chest and continued to heal.
Right at this moment, a system announcement rang in Su Yu’s ear.
“Ding, your balance of spiritual energy coin is insufficient. [Master-Level Life Recovery Potion] can’t be upgraded again.”
“Huh?” Su Yu was taken aback.
Did he…run out of money?
Su Yu quickly opened his backpack to check his balance and found that his spiritual energy coin balance was “.”1632693″, just over 1.63 million.”
Of course, this amount would make him a top-tier tycoon among players, but for Su Yu who once had 200 billion spiritual energy coins, this amount of money was no different from being broke.
200 billion just like that? All gone?
He was indeed a big spender!
Su Yu’s face turned a bit pale.
Upon noticing Su Yu’s unusual state, Cat Morning Star lifted her head from his chest: “Nemesis, what’s wrong?”
“Morning Star, I want to ask you something.”
“What?”
“Would you still love me if I were a pauper? I’m broke now.”
Morning Star: “Meow meow meow?”
She looked at Su Yu in disbelief: “Didn’t Alyssa reward you with 100 billion for collecting protection fees for her in the Western Continent not long ago? Who did you give that money to?”
“I didn’t give it to anybody. I spent it all myself.”
Morning Star: “…”
What a big spender, 100 billion spiritual energy coins gone in two to three months?
“But, this can be easily resolved.” Morning Star wiped away her sweat and answered, “Alyssa has plenty of money. You can borrow a few billion from her, then earn it back by developing businesses! Haven’t you always wanted to get involved in commercial development in our world?”
After thinking for a bit, Su Yu nodded: “Well, that’s true.”
Once they were done with Bernina’s task, and the flow of time was reversed, the experience points awarded by monsters, dungeons, and quests would decrease. Then players would have ample time to develop their businesses in the game.
At that time, he could also focus on this aspect, earn some money to replenish his empty wallet. Otherwise, he wouldn’t even have the money to upgrade potions.
….
Half a minute later, Su Yu and Morning Star arrived at the Goldfinch Royal Palace.
Detecting Su Yu and Morning Star, Alyssa quickly flew into the sky and straight toward Su Yu’s arms.
“Nemesis! You finally came back! Why did you leave for so long?” Alyssa buried her face in his chest while embracing him tightly.
It had been months since Su Yu left, and now he was finally back.
These past few months, she had often heard the false rumors of Su Yu’s death. Luckily, she firmly believed he was not dead, and that’s how she held on until now.
Su Yu gently patted her shoulder and comforted: “It’s okay, the task is finished. After we go see Lady Bernina to adjust the flow of time, I can have more time to stay and accompany you here.”
Tina was also in the palace. Upon sensing Su Yu’s presence, she immediately flew out.
However, she wasn’t as fast as Alyssa, arriving a little later.
She originally planned to fling herself into Su Yu’s arms, but seeing Alyssa had already taken her spot, she felt a bit embarrassed and could only stand aside with an awkward smile.
What do you think?
