Global Game: Ten Billion Spirit Energy Coins From The Start - Chapter 363
Chapter 363: 363, the cyberpunk atmosphere-filled Treyna city_1
The wealthy of Treyna City gathered in the western part of town, while a vast swath of slums spread out in the northern region.

The slum houses were low and dilapidated, with heaps of garbage and rivulets of sewage staining the narrow paths.
Unemployed people wandered the streets like zombies, injecting each other with vaccines, chasing the thrilling sensation it brought.
However, even in such an environment, a golden titanium armor mech would occasionally cross the sky of the slums.
The masters of these mechs, to satisfy their sense of justice, deliberately ventured into the slums to deal with the local gang members, murderers, and robbers.
After they felt their righteousness served, they would leave in their mechas, looking distinctly cyberpunk.
…..
Hum——
With a slight humming sound, Su Yu’s floating car stopped at the edge of the slum.
A spiritual force shot out from the car, sweeping a 50-meter radius around the floating car. Any surveillance cameras within this radius were directly pierced.
Su Yu stepped out of the car, and Morning Star also hopped out from the car, perched on his shoulder.
“Morning Star, you go into the pet space first. Come out when we reach our destination,” Su Yu ordered.
“Alright.” Morning Star wagged its tail and obediently hopped into the pet space.
Su Yu opened his necklace to store his white floating car. He then activated the [Invisibility Skill] and sneaked into the slum.
…
About ten minutes after Su Yu left, six high-ranking powerhouses rushed from the horizon like meteorites, landing at Su Yu’s last known location.
Among these six high-ranking powerhouses, there were two males and two females, while the true gender of the remaining two was indiscernible at first glance.
However, their displayed strengths were formidable, listed at the sixth rank in the Sanctuary and above!
“Here it is.” Hilton, the leader of the intelligence department among the six, sniffed the air and looked serious:
“The last footprint of that human was here, he should have gone into the slum.
Damn! If it weren’t for that damned AI slowing us down, we might have stopped him before he entered the slum!”
“The slum… now that’s a bit of a problem,” a female spiritual master frowned. “The slum has a dense population. It’s the perfect place to hide. It’ll likely take us some time to find him.”
“Anyway, let’s get moving!” Hilton clapped his hands. “Stay in contact with each other. Report immediately if anyone spots that alien.”
“Understood!” The other five responded in union.
The six people dispersed, each entering the slum to search for Su Yu.
…
Unbeknownst to Su Yu, danger was fast approaching.
Minutes before the high-ranking powerhouses from Skuru arrived, he had used [Mind Control] to take control of a low-level gang leader named Bobby.
[Mind Control], as a skill, didn’t allow him to control strong entities. With Su Yu’s spiritual energy, he could barely manage to control a fourth-rank cultivator on a long-term basis.
However, to control a fourth-rank cultivator, he would have to maintain physical contact, like placing his hand on the target’s shoulder.
If he wanted to control remotely, controlling a third-rank person was already his limit.
In a dilapidated residential building in the northern part of the slum, Bobby knelt before Su Yu, lowered his head, and said, “Master.”
“Bobby, how many men do you have under you?” Su Yu asked calmly.
“In total, Master, I have 216… ah no, one died yesterday. There should be 215,” Bobby replied.
“215… Not bad.” Su Yu commended. “How much money do you currently have?”
“Master, I don’t have any money, and I am in debt by several thousand,” Bobby answered timidly.
Su Yu: “…”
Seeing the look on his master’s face, Bobby hastily explained, “Master, gang members like us, living on the edge of life and death, don’t save money. Because we might be killed and thrown into a sewer tomorrow, what’s the point of saving money?”
It seems, though, he suddenly thought of something, his eyes brightening, “Master, our boss just handed out some money for us to buy tickets to the Floating Island. I could give that money to you!”
“‘Tickets to the Floating Island’?” Su Yu was puzzled.
“Yes!” Bobby pointed north,
“After the Floating Island’s big explosion, wasn’t the Floating Island sealed off there. The surroundings of the Floating Island have bred a lot of mutant creatures. If you want to go there to kill monsters, you have to buy tickets, and the tickets aren’t cheap.”
Morning Star, perched on Su Yu’s shoulder, couldn’t help but chuckled, “Meow… they actually have this kind of policy? What a business genius!”
Su Yu was also speechless.
In the Lun Kete alliance, due to the “Spiritual Overload Syndrome,” 100,000 people had died. The government still did not let high-ranking powerhouses go and exterminate the mutant creatures, and instead, they were charging for tickets?
But then, considering a neighboring country’s epidemic prevention measures on Blue Star, Su Yu immediately understood.
If this happened on Blue Star, the governments of those large countries would probably do the same. After all, in those places, the lives of ordinary people were negligible.
“Um… how much is your ticket money in total?” Su Yu forcibly pulled his wandering thoughts back and asked Bobby.
“For more than two hundred brothers, it’s a total of 1.52 million,” Bobby replied smoothly.
“Can that money be withdrawn now?”
“Of course!”
“Alright, I’ll wait here. You get that money in cash and bring it here.”
“No problem, Master!”
With that said, Bobby skipped away to withdraw the money.
…
Half an hour later, Bobby returned to the apartment where Su Yu was staying.
Runket coins had 10,000 denomination notes, so the 1.52 million was easily carried back by Bobby in his pocket.
Accepting the money, Su Yu tapped Bobby’s shoulder approvingly. “Well done!”
Indeed, the money came quite comfortably. Su Yu was suddenly seized with a wild idea to crash the upper-class parties in Skuru, control the tycoons there, and have them transfer money to him.
But the thought was difficult to implement, so Su Yu temporarily pushed it to the back of his mind.
He looked at Bobby, “By the way, Bobby, where in Treyna City can I buy high-end electronic products? I’m thinking of checking out.”
But surprisingly, Bobby’s expression suddenly became solemn, “Master, I don’t recommend going out now.”
“Why?” Su Yu asked, surprised.
“Because I just received news on my way back. Many people saw Intelligence Chief Hilton leading five sixth-rank powerhouses into the slum. It seems like they’re looking for someone suspicious,” Bobby explained,
“If it’s not a very urgent matter, I suggest you keep a low profile until the intelligence chief and his team have left.”
“Intelligence Chief? And five of the sixth-rank?” Su Yu was taken aback, his face instantly becoming serious.
Does that mean his location has been discovered?
If what Bobby said was true, then it seemed very likely!
Also, Su Yu could sense a strong presence seeming to be approaching from afar. He became tense and immediately activated [Invisibility].
