Chapter 703: Chapter 703

Judging from the news, the enemy indeed had no suspicion that the citizens of the city were behind it. The last message left by Li Sanyuan was about dealing with external threats to his city.

Subsequently, he set off with his elite forces, leaving behind in the city signs of battle that have been obliterated over time and their traces erased.

The skeletons he summoned would automatically vanish when their time was up, leaving nothing behind.

There might be some residual energy for a short while, but it would eventually fade away.

As for the remnants of the ground combat armor they later excavated, nothing discernible was left as the remains were heavily damaged.

Experts could only guess that the enemy had heavy machinery or large creatures capable of causing such damage. There were also signs of fire, suggesting the presence of a fire mage among the enemy ranks.

They couldn’t understand why the enemy would destroy and bury the items instead of simply taking them away. They speculated that it could be a method of intimidation, an act of catharsis, or possibly an abandonment due to time constraints.

Such a scenario is certainly plausible, given that the destructive elements outside are capable of anything.

While Du You was about to continue his investigation, he spotted an incoming communication alert from Du Yun.

As soon as he answered, Du Yun’s voice came from the other end, "I have not been able to reach you for days. I thought you were dead. Where have you been these past few days!" Du Yun scolded Du You.

However, seeing the concern in Du Yun’s eyes warmed Du You’s heart.

"No big deal. I just took a trip to the Other World. Oh by the way, I’ve tidied up our home and hired a housekeeping service. From now on, someone will come regularly to clean, since I can’t afford to run around."

"I don’t care anymore. As long as you can convince mom and dad."

Rolling her eyes, Du Yun spoke, "Good, I’m relieved that you’re fine. I’m quite busy here." Then she started to hang up the call.

Wait a minute. They barely even had a conversation. How busy could she possibly be?

"Hey, wait, I have some things here. See if there’s anything you need, and I can send it to you later. I got quite a haul this time, but most of the stuff is of no use to me."

Du You hurriedly stopped Du Yun, and sent her a list of his possessions.

"Oh my, you are already Tier 3, and you even have Tier 4 items. You rise so fast, indeed my little brother. Since you’re so filial, I’ll trouble myself to take a look."

Though Du Yun said so, she was rather pleased. Du You’s swift ascent in power meant an increase in his safety. However, it also meant that he faced more dangers as well.

Looking at these items, Du Yun was indeed surprised. Among other items, skills were useful regardless of one’s level. These items alone indicated that Du You’s strength was certainly no simple matter. "Are you sure these items are of no use to you?"

"I’ve already used whatever was useful. These are of no use to me or those two girls, so you can take whatever you need." Du You said carelessly, waving his hand. There was no need to be stingy with his sister.

"Okay then, I’ll take this, this, and this." Du Yun didn’t hold back in her selection.

Du You watched as Du Yun chose the skill stone (Magic Power Sacrifice), skill stone (Magic Spider), and Earth Demon Spider Eyeball (Bloodline). She also took away 10 Dragon Blood Gems, not holding back in the slightest.

Du You put on a smile while feeling his heart bleed. Thankfully, Du Yun didn’t take everything. She left him with 23 Dragon Blood Gems and didn’t choose the unnecessary skills.

Du Yun was an Arcane Master, so Magic Power Sacrifice and Magic Spider skills were useful to her. As for the Bloodline, Du You hesitated.

"Well, the Earth Demon Spider’s bloodline is not bad, but it has limited potential. Are you sure you want to use it?" Follow current novels on 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝓷𝓮𝓽

"It’s not for me. It’s for one of my friends. She will trade you something for it, you won’t lose out."

While saying this, Du Yun also picked some Purple Sea Urchin Pills and Red Pills. This time, Du You didn’t feel the pinch. Du Yun’s fondness for these items suggested that they were indeed in demand.

"By the way, you should be able to access some territory blueprints now, remember to leave some for me."

"Do you have your own territory?" Du You asked, puzzled.

"No, but our team does. Developing a territory brings many benefits. Once you reach Tier 4, you might come over and help with skill evolution, instead of selling yourself to some other organizations."

"Haha, that’s true. I’ve already thought about this. You mentioned blueprints? Do you want living blueprint? I can send some to you now."

All the blueprints that Du You had planned to use for trades were brought out. Seeing this, even Du Yun’s eyes widened. The quantity was indeed quite substantial.

"I don’t know if you collect these deliberately, but you have so many. Alright, I’ll give you an anonymous mailing address. Just send it when it’s convenient. Remember to use the highest level of encryption."

Looking at the number on the screen, Du You shook his head in wry laughter. Du Yun had already hung up the call.

Seriously, it was like raising a daughter. He was the younger sibling, but he had to look out for his sister, worrying about her and sending her things. Du You felt like he had turned into an old father.

No, that won’t do. Du You shook his head, quickly discarding such dangerous thoughts.

"Let’s send Du Yun her things first." Du You decided to rise and head for the transit station.

Speaking of these blueprints, they were obtained during his rest in the territory. Du You spent a large amount of Crystal Coins to speed up the research and drawing so as to get the right blueprints. As a result, there were many blueprints with quantity restrictions.

But there were benefits as well. All his life-building blueprints were researched to Tier 3, and each one even had permanent blueprints. These permanent blueprints were kept for himself.

Serving others didn’t make him feel as good as serving himself. As for Du Yun, when his strength was enough, he would give her a surprise. Having his own territory was much more efficient than serving any team. Cheerfully, Du You ran to the transit station, packed and sent out his things, and instantly forgot about his earlier woes.
