Transcendent Dawn

Chapter 392: Chapter 0392: Planning (Third update request for subscription)

Having become the ‘Honorary Council’ of Green Tree Castle and not wishing to get rid of this identity just yet, Su Lu was not in a position to just set off on a journey. He had to see Dunstan first.

In the laboratory.

Many busy hands, but he was sitting facing Dunstan, an automated system brought coffee and cup to their table.

“The Federation has again sent their thanks and reward, Su Lu. I couldn’t believe you could even seal a Cursed Spirit!”

Dunstan’s eyes were shining.

“It’s only because the condition restrained it.”

Su Lu said, “I’m planning to take a long vacation…”

Dunstan’s face grew stiff immediately, “A…long vacation? Well, you deserve a good rest after your hard work. How long do you plan to rest?”

“I don’t know!”

Dunstan was taken aback.

Nevertheless, Su Lu’s joining the Green Tree Castle and the stipulations in the agreement he signed were quite flexible, requiring merely that they must not harm each other’s interests. Dunstan would not pry too much.

Also, he had no choice but to approve.

“Ah…recently, the Federation intended to challenge the Chris Empire on the seas. Our legendary occupational persons must be prepared.”

Dunstan reluctantly brought up a matter.

“A struggle for maritime supremacy?”

Su Lu understood. After the Federation’s steel production and shipbuilding technology made rapid progress, a conflict with the old empire Chris became inevitable, also for gaining more overseas markets.

“But…even though our industrial strength has surpassed theirs, we’re bound to be inferior in terms of transcendent powers, even if the God of the Ocean and the Lady of Storm remain neutral…” Su Lu shook his head, appearing not so optimistic.

“No choice, the scholars of the Federation have calculated and deduced that if we don’t engage in a foreign war, there will be massive piles of domestic goods, and many factories will go bankrupt, leading to an economic crisis.” Dunstan said helplessly.

‘Is this also a way of shifting troubles externally?’

Su Lu quietly shook his head, “But I still think, declaring a direct war against the Chris Empire is unwise, why not resort to a roundabout tactic, how about that?”

“Roundabout? What do you mean?” Dunstan asked with interest.

“The Chris Empire, not only does it have a vast territory, but it also has extensive colonies on both the Old and New Continents…these are its sources of raw materials and places where it dumps products, as well as the economic lifeline of the entire empire!”

Su Lu seemed to have seen another piece of history, “The Federation was established too late and missed the colonial tide…so the only option is to sponsor the colonies of the Chris Empire, assisting them in achieving independence and statehood.”

“Help the colonies gain independence from the Chris Empire?” Dunstan mumbled.

“Humans are born equal, so why must the people of the Chris Empire be superior in the colonies? We can go there as liberators, not invaders…help the local residents get rid of the influence of the Chris Empire…of course, our main approach will be secretly aiding them, offering them weaponry, technology, and even transcendent knowledge…once they establish their country, we can initiate equal diplomatic ties.”

Su Lu smiled.

Even though it’s equal diplomatic relations on the surface, with the magnitude of the Federation, the actual situation of trading under an agreement of customs duties wouldn’t be much different from colonial exploitation.

“That’s a good idea…but Chris Empire wouldn’t sit by idly.”

Dunstan said, “This could only serve as a supplement to the main plan…to really overthrow the maritime supremacy of Chris Empire, we must go through a decisive battle.”

“Hmm…but we can delay the time, weaken their strength, and set off a fire in Chris Empire’s backyard, that should be enough, shouldn’t it?”

Su Lu took a sip of his drink.

“Your suggestion is important, I will submit it to the Federation later.”

Dunstan cast a deep glance at Su Lu, “Thank you for your contributions to the Federation.”

“Well, I’m off.”

After casually making a suggestion, Su Lu stood up to leave.

Once the lab’s door closed, the figure of Celsus appeared in the lab: “Did he…know already?”

“No…I feel that he just genuinely has a matter to take care of.”

Dunstan shook his head, “But at this time…he avoided it perfectly. Is this a show of favor from fate? And this insight into history, it’s really shocking…”

For the first time, he felt that Su Lu’s genius not only lies in his transcendent profession, but also in areas where ordinary people operate, he seemed to have terrifying abilities.

“Master!”

After he returned to his residence, Beryl, who was dressed in black-and-white maid attire, greeted him.

“Oh, right. You too!”

Su Lu said to Beryl, “I am planning to travel for some time. During this period, you should go to the Chris Empire as well!”

Even though Beryl had been thoroughly transformed and had become ‘Bijie’. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

It still wasn’t safe here.

Su Lu wasn’t worried about Green Tree Castle being breached again, but was concerned about Dunstan and Celsus.

Therefore, it was better to eliminate all potential risks.

“Chris Empire?”

Beryl repeated, “Bijie wants to stay with Master.”

“Huh?”

Su Lu stared into Beryl’s eyes, finding them clear but determined.

Such flexible eyes, completely different from the dull look initially.

“You aren’t ready yet, you’re still not strong enough to assist me by staying by my side.”

Still, Su Lu shook his head.

Right now, he could at most transport people within the Dream Spirit World.

As for carrying people through the Realm of All Spirits? Even though he might be unharmed, those he took along would be fatally injured.

“Become stronger?”

Beryl murmured to herself, her eyes filled with determination, “Master, please rest assured.”

“Okay.”

Su Lu nodded.

If Beryl could quickly master the power of [Undead], she could be considered top-tier among the fourth order and would be greatly useful.

After cleaning up loose ends and sending Beryl off to the Chris Empire.

Su Lu took one last look at the magnificent residence and smiled indifferently.

To him, the comfortable life in the Material Realm was simply a form of entertainment during his expedition on the Transcendent path.

Compared to his course, he could abandon any kind of comfortable and secure life.

After all, the world has become increasingly dangerous now.

If Su Lu still wanted to protect himself, protect his family and friends, or find a way back to Earth, he had to become stronger!

“It’s time to go!”

With that thought, he transformed into the form of [Wandering Mage] and vanished into the void.

“Su Lu has really left…”

Not far from the manor, Dunstan, who was manipulating the ‘Enigma Lock’ of the Inner Circle, suddenly stated with a sense of perception.

“He even sent the little maid away, are you not afraid he would never return?”

Celsus smirked.

“Trust is necessary among people, we have no conflicts of interest…Our honourable council member should have seen the sincerity of Green Tree Castle.”

Dunstan calmly replied, but outsiders couldn’t know what he was truly thinking.
