Chapter 635: 632, 50 billion spiritual energy coins_1
(ps: Sorry, I got off work very late today, so these two chapters were published without revising.)

In the following months, the United Government and relevant departments have been implementing the “Starvation Plan”, prioritizing the cultivation of the “70+700” target.
The plan is continuously being improved to ensure that the United Government can maximize the reasonable allocation of resources in the game.
To realize the “Starvation Plan”, the United Government and the relevant departments have made efforts in six aspects:
First, the United Government invested heavily in the territorial construction of players who have territories, upgraded their territories, built more “Pseudo-Magician Tower” buildings for the reserve players of “70+700”.
Second, the United Government allocated all the game resources to the reserve players of “70+700”. At the same time, they took out half of the spiritual energy produced by the Spring Eyes in the real world and brought it into the game through helmets for these players to absorb.
Third, the relevant departments consumed a lot of materials and resources to cultivate sub-professional players, aiming to cultivate 50 Master Level sub-profession players within three months to mass-produce high-end equipment and potions for “70+700”.
Fourth, they negotiated with various major NPC forces in the Goldfinch Empire to purchase high-ranking skill books for “70+700” and provided clues to hidden tasks that rewarded high-ranking skill books.
Fifth, they hired NPCs above the fifth rank in the Goldfinch Empire to impart battle knowledge to “70+700” and increase their combat skills with actual combat.
Sixth, they exterminated the wild [Pan-root] groups, vigorously developed the artificial cultivation of [Pan-root] industry, and produced as many [Root Potions] as possible.
…
The above six points are the efforts made by the United Government for the “Starvation Plan”.
In conclusion, they gathered all the resources and focused on “70+700”, placing all their bets on these people, doing their utmost to enhance their combat power.
This “Starvation Plan” was supervised by Chairman Hu Jing and overseen by Snow Leopard. Their energy would be entirely spent on this as well.
As for Su Yu, he had his own cultivation plan.
The relevant departments had given him all the monster materials above the sixth rank from national reserves some time ago (although there weren’t many, because the overall level of players was quite low).
Su Yu spent approximately 5 days (in real-time) burning and absorbing all these monster materials, and his level had risen from level 80 to level 80 at 50%.
However, after burning all these monster materials, he had nothing left to burn.
Five days later, in the Mage Tower of his territory, as Su Yu watched the last piece of the sixth-rank [Geno Thunder Beast’s Skull] in the Mana Pool turn into ashes, and the red light of the magic circle beneath him gradually stopped operating, he couldn’t help but sigh lightly.
Cat Morning Star had been cultivating by his side all along.
Seeing Su Yu’s expression, she turned her face and asked, “Nemesis, have you run out of monster materials?”
“Yes.”
“What are you going to do?”
“Of course, I will get more! After all, cultivation cannot stop.”
Su Yu opened the private chat interface and contacted Swift, who was hard at work in the manor of the city lord of Aphi City: “Swift, how much surplus do we have in our territory’s finances?”
“Wait a moment, I’ll check for you.” Swift immediately replied.
About 10 minutes later, Swift replied again: “A total of 53.32 billion spiritual energy coins.”
“That’s it?” Su Yu wasn’t very satisfied.
Swift: “…”
This amount is not small at all! This is 53 “billion”, which is an astronomical figure for most players.
“Take out 40 billion for me, I’m going to buy cultivation resources.”
After sending the message, Su Yu knew that Swift would definitely agree, so he didn’t wait for her reply and directly contacted the next person, Chairman Hu Jing.
“Chairman, give me 260 billion spiritual energy coins, I need to buy cultivation resources.” Su Yu’s request was blunt.
Chairman Hu Jing was taken aback, asking for 260 billion straight away? Couldn’t he have a bit of a preamble?
However, considering that this was the first time Su Yu had ever asked him for money, and Su Yu had only contributed without asking for anything in return before, it was indeed time to give him a substantial reward.
So he replied, “Currently, we are fully operating the ‘Starvation Plan’, taking out 260 billion spiritual energy coins all at once might strain our resources.”
Seeing Chairman Hu Jing’s words, Su Yu wanted to reply with a “Will you give it to me then?”
But considering that such a response might be impolite, he changed it to “What do you mean?”
Chairman Hu Jing: “I can give you the 260 billion spiritual energy coins. However, the United Government doesn’t have as many resources as you think. After giving you this, we won’t be able to provide you with resources for a short time. At least three months, and I’m talking about three months in the real world.”
Su Yu: “Understood.”
Su Yu: “Give me these spiritual energy coins; I’ll ask for more in three months.”
Chairman Hu Jing: “…”
…
Cat Morning Star didn’t know the details of Su Yu’s conversation with Swift and Chairman Hu Jing.
Seeing Su Yu stand up from the side of the Mana Pool after finishing chatting, she asked, “Nemesis, how many spiritual energy coins did you get?”
“Not much.” Su Yu shook his head and smiled, “Just about 300 billion?”
“300… ‘billion’?” Morning Star was taken aback. How many dried fish can 300 billion spiritual energy coins buy?
Su Yu went over and picked up Morning Star, smiling and saying, “Let’s find Alyssa now, borrow another 200 billion from her. 500 billion spiritual energy coins should be enough to reach my goal.”
“500 billion…” Morning Star was speechless for a moment, jumped onto his shoulder and asked, “Can you advance to the eighth rank with all this money?”
“I’m afraid not.” After thinking for a moment, Su Yu shook his head and said, “According to my estimates, I need at least 900 billion spiritual energy coins of resources to advance to the eighth rank. This 500 billion is far from enough.”
“Then you…”
Morning Star wanted to ask: Why don’t you borrow all the money at once?
Knowing what Morning Star wanted to ask, Su Yu patted her head and replied, “They can’t afford to lend it all at once. It’s about sustainable exploitation. Let’s go, let’s embark!”
He put Morning Star in the pet space and then went to the Goldfinch City through the teleportation array.
…
Half an hour later, Su Yu left the Goldfinch Royal Palace with Alyssa’s 200-billion spiritual energy coins ‘IOU’.
Alyssa did have the national credit backing her. These IOUs could be used as real currency.
Although Su Yu and Alyssa were very close, according to the rules, Su Yu had to complete a corresponding difficulty task for whatever he got from Alyssa, so he could only “borrow” 200 billion spiritual energy coins, which he would have to repay later.
“Nemesis, how are you going to pay back these 200 billion?” After leaving the Royal Palace, Cat Morning Star, sitting on his shoulder, tilted her head to look at him.
After all, this is 200 billion! If he were to pay it back through tasks, couldn’t Su Yu run tasks for Alyssa for 10 years and still fail to repay it?
Su Yu smiled calmly, “We’ll talk about repaying the money later, what we need to do now is to spend this money!”
