Chapter 391: 390, Heading to Military Zone_1
“Boss Ke, is this the car you seized from the aliens? It looks so cool!” A young man in his twenties jogged over, admiring the levitating car.
He reached out to touch the car but halted halfway, hesitating to touch something from outer space. His hand awkwardly hung in the air.
“Uncle Nemesis! Can I have your autograph?” A little girl, around 7 or 8 years old, wearing a red jacket, dashed over with an exercise book. She came to a halt in front of Su Yu, lifting her exercise book high above.
Three lines of frustration appeared on Su Yu’s forehead, “Just call me ‘brother’. I haven’t reached the ‘Uncle’ level yet.”
He took the exercise book and carefully signed for the little girl.
The little girl’s parents were quite terrified and turned pale as if Su Yu was some sort of monster.
After Su Yu finished signing, they quickly grabbed their daughter and left, over and over again saying “sorry”.
A middle-aged man with a beer belly, standing nearby, was flushed with excitement. He was snapping photos of the levitating car with his phone while saying cheerfully to Su Yu,
“After watching your news last night, I couldn’t sleep at all. I couldn’t believe I would meet you in person this morning! Comrade Xiao Ke, are you from Imperial Capital too?”
“Er, I’m from East Sea City. I am here in the Imperial Capital on official business.” Su Yu explained.
“Can your alien car run without a local license plate?” The uncle voiced his concern on behalf of Su Yu.
Su Yu’s lips twitched slightly.
Despite that, he explained, “Don’t worry, uncle. My car doesn’t run, it flies.”
By this time, Xue Wenli had arrived at the levitating car. Su Yu waved his hand slightly, and her car was absorbed into his necklace.
“I’m going to demonstrate it to everyone now.”
Su Yu pulled Xue Wenli into the car, opened the levitating car’s autonomous driving mode, and the entire car instantly shot up to 3.5 meters in the air, as if springs had been installed below, causing a commotion among the onlookers.
“I have to go now, everyone! I’m taking this car to the experts, so they can study it properly and hopefully mass-produce it soon, so that everyone can use this type of levitating car powered by alien technology!”
Su Yu waved to the crowd from the rear window of the car, the white light strips lit up on the car, and it shot forward like an arrow.
“Goodbye, Comrade Xiao Ke, take care!”
“Boss Ke, take care!” The crowd also cheerfully waved goodbye to Su Yu.
…..
After bidding farewell to the spectators, Su Yu drove the levitating car towards the northern military district.
The average flight height of the levitating car is 3.5 meters, this height is the most energy efficient.
If the levitating car wants to fly higher, it can, under normal circumstances, it can fly up to a height of 30-40 meters above the ground.
But the higher it flies, the more fuel it consumes.
So Su Yu tries to maintain a flight height of 6 meters, he can fly over the roofs of other cars, avoiding traffic jams and the trouble of having to stop at red lights.
As he moved forward, the drivers on the road noticed a “UFO” quickly zip over their heads.
The speed of the levitating car is very fast, reaching up to 300 kilometers per hour. Su Yu’s car quickly disappeared from sight, leaving behind a group of bewildered drivers.
Xue Wenli, who sat in the car, was also extremely excited, touching here and there.
“Nemesis, this car must not be cheap on Skru Star right?” She looked at the luxurious interior of the car, noticing many imprints of Skru culture.
“It’s okay.” Su Yu chuckled lightly: “This car is the latest and most high-end levitating car from the Lun Kete alliance, named ‘Lunke power’. The selling price is 350,000 Runket Coins. If converted to gold and then to Flower Coins, it should be around 700,000.”
“700,000? That’s cheap!” Xue Wenli was surprised: “We have sports car worth tens of millions on Blue Star…wait a second, is it really this cheap to buy the most high-end car?”
“Of course.” Su shrugged: “The high price of sports cars on Blue Star is mainly because they are luxury items with high added value. For example, a Lamborghini worth tens of millions really costs just a few hundred thousand. The brand is worth a few hundred thousand, the rest of the money is earned from the vanity of the rich.”
“Cars on Skru Star are daily necessities, just like the computers we normally use; you get what you pay for, so the prices are reasonable.”
“I see.” Xue Wenli understood.
She joked: “Then you’re really rich! Isn’t the space in your necklace quite big? Next time you go to Skru Star, bring back more levitating cars. I’m sure the rich will be scrambling to buy them even if they’re priced at 20 million each!”
“Sorry, I don’t need money.” Su Yu chuckled and shook his head: “Not to mention real money, I have a hundred billion in game coins alone.”
“Um…” Xue Wenli’s smile froze on her face.
Though Su Yu lived a simple life, he was indeed a hidden super tycoon.
Su Yu entered the command to open the manual driving module on the operation panel of the levitating car. At the bottom of the driving module interface, he opened the “Cold Fusion Jet Module”, then told Xue Wenli,
“Alright, now let’s see how fast this high-end levitating car can go!”
“Top speed?”
Before Xue Wenli had time to react, she felt a tremendous force pushing her from the back.
Immediately after, the scenery outside the window became blurred. The speed of the car increased from 300 kilometers per hour to 600 kilometers per hour in just one minute. The speed was already twice that of a Blue Star helicopter!
The levitating car was like a beam of black light, darting through the steel jungle of the city.
…
10 minutes later, Su Yu’s levitating car arrived at the entrance of the capital’s military district, saving at least an hour compared to the journey in Xue Wenli’s car.
Xue Wenli stumbled out of the levitating car, feeling somewhat wobbly. The acceleration of the levitating car was way too fast for her human body to handle.
Fortunately, the journey was short and they arrived at their destination in no time. Otherwise, she would have fainted!
Xue Wenli took a deep breath and went to verify her identity at the guard post.
Then she got back into the car and Su Yu manually drove the levitating car into the military district.
“Turn left… keep going straight, turn right at the third intersection…” Xue Wenli directed Su Yu as per her memory.
This was Su Yu’s first time in the military district and he curiously looked at the buildings around him.
Following Xue Wenli’s directions, Su Yu arrived smoothly at a base underneath the equipment department of the military district.
Commissioner Zhang had already arrived at the entrance to the secret base, and dozens of engineers and scientists were with him.
As soon as Su Yu got out of the car, the engineers and scientists enthusiastically gathered around the levitating car, and started discussing animatedly.
Commissioner Zhang also strode over to Su Yu happily.
He took out a red box from his pocket and handed it to Su Yu: “Comrade Su, after the unanimous decision of the higher-ups, we are awarding this ‘June 1st Medal’ to you, in appreciation for your contribution to Blue Star!”
