Infinite Job Transfers Starting from Mechanic Chapter 760 - 383: Return to the Radiation Land! The True Radiation Ghost City!_2
But there was a faint smile on his face.
"Why is he smiling?"
The Ghost Emperor had a question flash through his mind.
The next moment, he understood why Su Yu was smiling.
Because Su Yu’s figure disappeared, vanishing from his perception!
The Ghost Emperor was slightly shocked. In this Radiation Land, he was the absolute god, and everything was under his control.
But Su Yu, a living person, actually disappeared from his perception, which was simply unbelievable.
With his rich experience, the Ghost Emperor immediately judged what had happened.
The first possibility was that Su Yu, relying on his powerful strength, forcibly shielded himself from the Ghost Emperor’s Ghost Energy perception.
But thinking about reaching that level, Su Yu would have to be at the Fifth Rank, at least the Fourth-Order Top, just a tiny bit away from advancing to the Fifth Rank, to achieve that.
The second possibility was that Su Yu, relying on his powerful control over Ghost Energy, shielded himself from the Ghost Emperor’s perception. This would not require very strong hard power, but it would require absolute control in the field of Ghost Energy.
"Ghost Hidden Blade... No wonder it’s an experimental result of the empire from ten thousand years ago, truly powerful..."
The Ghost Emperor softly whispered this name, a gleam flashing in his eyes.
At this moment, Su Yu was transforming into a mass of black mist, traveling swiftly through the same Ghost Energy black mist.
At this time, he was like a drop of water merging into the sea, indistinguishable by anyone.
Even the Ghost Emperor was no exception!
Even if the Ghost Emperor had been managing this place for over ten thousand years, and all the Ghost Energy black mist was equivalent to his body, it was still useless, unable to discover Su Yu!
When Su Yu’s Ghost Hidden Blade had just been promoted, there was no Evil God Origin, no Power of Nihility.
The main ability was only high-level Ghost Energy control, and a skill of "concealment."
This profession is best at hiding, especially in high-concentration Ghost Energy environments.
The first time Su Yu entered the Subspace, he was almost discovered by the will of the Brutal Evil God, but he managed to hide using the ability of the Ghost Hidden Blade.
Even the Fifth Rank Brutal Evil God couldn’t discover Su Yu, let alone the Ghost Emperor?
Although Su Yu’s Ghost Hidden Blade was still at the Third Rank, in such a high concentration of Ghost Energy environment, it was enough to exert the power of the Fourth Rank!
The Ghost Emperor thought he could scare Su Yu with the geographical advantage here, but that was a miscalculation.
Su Yu, who activated the Ghost Hidden Blade’s ability, likewise had the geographic advantage here.
"Consider it a win for him this time..."
In the dark golden palace, the Ghost Emperor slightly shook his head.
He had just had his first encounter with Su Yu, and it was Su Yu who won.
He lost track of Su Yu’s location, which meant Su Yu could come and go freely in his own lair, so naturally, he lost.
Of course, it’s not that the Ghost Emperor had no way to deal with Su Yu completely.
If he wanted, he could still find a way to forcibly uncover Su Yu’s hiding form.
For example, by collecting all the Ghost Energy black mist in the entire Radiation Land, Su Yu would have no place to hide.
But that would be too disgraceful, and the Ghost Emperor naturally wouldn’t do that.
So he had no choice but to sit quietly on the throne, waiting for Su Yu’s arrival.
No choice, as he didn’t even know where Su Yu was, he could only wait.
Fortunately, Su Yu did not keep him waiting for long, and soon, Su Yu arrived outside the palace and revealed his form.
Su Yu looked at the palace before him, slightly amazed.
The last time he came to the Radiation Land, he did not see this palace.
He only saw a towering palace, thousands of meters high, covering hundreds of kilometers, situated at the center of the Radiation Land.
The palace’s primary color was dark gold, which matched the dark Radiation Land, but it didn’t appear gloomy; instead, it had an aura of nobility.
The palace consisted of numerous halls, towers, and temples. The architectural complexity was immense but not chaotic; instead, arranged with grace, grandeur, and elegance.
Su Yu, accustomed to skyscrapers, didn’t know anything about classical architectural design, but at first glance, he could tell this design was ingenious, clearly crafted by a master.
Such a gargantuan palace, in terms of scale, was no less than Su Yu’s Mechanical City.
Though called a palace, it was ordinary for housing millions; the only difference from Mechanical City was that it didn’t fly in the sky.
Who knows, does this palace have the function to fly into the sky?
"Looks like this is the true Radiation Ghost City, the Ghost Emperor’s Imperial Palace."
"Didn’t see it before because it was buried underground?"
Su Yu mused while looking at the palace.
The last time he came here, he saw a big pit.
Now it seemed that what was buried in the pit was this palace, and now the Ghost Emperor had unearthed it from beneath the ground.
While Su Yu contemplated, the palace’s gates opened.
The main gate of the palace was several hundred meters high, and when it opened, it made a sound like Heavenly Thunder; light shone through the doors, resembling the entrance to a Divine Kingdom.
Once the gates opened, a series of jade-like black steps were revealed, seemingly leading straight to the heavens.
At the highest point of the stairs was a great hall, presumably where the Ghost Emperor resided.
Then, two teams of soldiers in pitch-black armor emerged from behind the doors, standing on either side of the gate.
Su Yu looked at these two teams of soldiers, his heart skipping a beat.
Each team had a hundred warriors.
Each one had the strength of Nine-star Top Level!
These soldiers were silent, nodding slightly to Su Yu as if inviting him to ascend the steps and head to the great hall.
"These are likely the so-called Forbidden Guards, truly formidable."
"Indeed, as expected of a great emperor, quite the display."
Su Yu thought silently to himself as he looked at the scene.
Then he strode forward, walking up the steps towards the great hall.
He proceeded unhurriedly, looking around as if he were on a sightseeing tour.
The steps weren’t enclosed, allowing a view of the distant scenery.
Su Yu noticed that in some palaces and buildings in the distance, many curious and wary eyes were watching him.
This palace housed many people, seemingly far surpassing the so-called million-strong army, possibly including many civilians or perhaps some technical personnel or warriors’ families.
The number seemed to reach millions, not less than the population of Mechanical City!
The Ghost Emperor, before he died, had thoroughly prepared, sealing off so many people.
"This palace houses an entire country..."
Su Yu murmured to himself.
It seemed the Ghost Emperor had already informed his subjects of their duel.
So now, these people were all watching Su Yu from afar, observing the reckless person who dared to challenge their emperor.
These people, sealed by the Ghost Emperor until now, were undoubtedly his most loyal and trusted.
Their reverence for the Ghost Emperor probably matched the reverence Mechanical City’s citizens held for Su Yu.
No! Perhaps even more intense!
After all, Su Yu had never proclaimed himself an emperor nor employed any brainwashing techniques.
Whereas the Ghost Emperor had long ago trained his subjects to be utterly loyal, without any divided loyalties.
Su Yu could sense the intense emotions from the gazes of those people, filled with hostility, vigilance, and disdain!
Moreover, as Su Yu ascended each step, this emotion intensified, even putting pressure on Su Yu!
As they say, "Under the pointing of a thousand fingers, one dies without illness."
The psychological pressure from being hated and despised by a large number of one’s peers is immense.
Moreover, Su Yu was not merely facing the scorn of thousands but of millions.
That pressure transcended mere psychological stress, becoming tangible, akin to Spiritual Energy, multiplying the pressure with each step Su Yu took.
"Interesting..."
Su Yu found the pressure quite refreshing.
Always, when among his peers, he was in the guise of a savior, enjoying reverence and trust.
Now, he was experiencing the animosity of so many, a completely new experience.
"Furthermore, this stairway has some tricks, transforming invisible emotions into substantial pressure..."
