### Chapter 58: The Skrull Trail - Searching for Two Skrull Warriors
From the soul fragments of the red ghost, Su Yu extracted a wealth of useful information.
Firstly, the red ghost was created using energy from the **Yunlu Mountain Psionic Energy Spring**, the same spring where Su Yu had harnessed tens of billions of spiritual energy with his helmet. Remarkably, Yunlu Mountain is located just 10 kilometers from the woodland where Su Yu currently resided.
Once the red ghost was born, it found itself in this very location.
Secondly, when the red ghost came into existence, it overheard a heated argument between a Skrull male and a Skrull female. Su Yu had prior contact with the Skruxing anti-government organization in his previous life, granting him a basic understanding of the Skrulls. From the fragments of their quarrel, he deduced that the male speaker was a Skrull commander and the female was his adjutant.
The focus of their dispute revolved around the **Yunlu Mountain Spring**. Su Yu learned that the psychic output from this spring had been significantly affected by his presence; after 24 hours, it had only recovered about 10% of its usual capacity and would take approximately ten days to return to full strength.
The Skrull male commander maintained a calm demeanor, opting to wait for orders from his superiors without taking action. In contrast, the female adjutant was more aggressive and insisted on taking initiative, repeatedly mentioning the name "Muyun Company." Unfortunately, due to her strange dialect, Su Yu could only recognize the company name amidst their exchanges.
Ultimately, the two reached a consensus to follow the adjutant's plan. However, these squabbles didn't fully capture Su Yu's attention; what truly shocked him was a memory fragment from the red ghost's past.
Yesterday afternoon, two Skrull warriors—a male and a female—had ventured into the woods at the foot of Su Yu's location, where the red ghost had waved at them. Their conversation revealed that they were headed to **Muyun Company** to undertake a secret mission.
This revelation sent a wave of shock through Su Yu.
...
The reason for Su Yu's astonishment lay in the stringent rules established by the **Singer Civilization**. The Singer Civilization offers protection to vulnerable civilizations according to its own set of game rules. The Skrulls' actions, attempting to "occupy the spring and establish a base," fell into the category of "edge ball" behavior, potentially breaching these rules.
There are two crucial red lines that the Skrulls must not cross:
1. During this year, Skrulls are prohibited from leaving the **Psionic Fountain**.
2. Skrulls are forbidden from killing Blue Stars directly unless the Blue Stars initiate an attack against Skrull troops in the Psionic Spring.
These rules are linked to the authority of the Singer Civilization, and the Skrulls would not dare to transgress them lightly. In Su Yu's previous life, during the first year of major upheaval, no Skrulls had ventured outside Quanyan—not a single one! Yet now, he had found evidence of Skrulls leaving the spring through the red ghost's memory fragments.
How could this not shock him?
"The Skrulls have left the spring?! This is a major incident!"
The mountain wind rustled through the forest, whipping Su Yu's clothes as he fell into a deep contemplation. He was uncertain about how to handle this situation; there was no precedent to follow from his previous life.
Should he report this to the **Singer Civilization Inspector**? No. Memory fragments cannot be stored long-term and wouldn't serve as valid evidence.
What about reporting to the government? That wouldn't work either. Su Yu was not ready to expose his true identity so soon.
Should he seek out the two Skrull warriors at **Muyun Company**?
"Yes, that could work." Su Yu stroked his chin, nodding to himself. "I have an appointment with Pharaoh to finalize my resignation at 9:00 in the morning; perhaps I can seize this opportunity to locate those two Skrull warriors."
The two Skrull warriors were both first-tier, with the female carrying no weapons while the male was armed with a laser gun. However, Su Yu felt confident they would not dare to attack him; any attempt to do so would result in dire consequences.
With this thought in mind, Su Yu left the forest and headed back to the city.
As he approached the bus station, the flight attendant, Little Li, was keeping a watchful eye from the curb, leaning on the guardrail. However, she was too far away to witness the confrontation between Su Yu and the ghost.
At 9:30 a.m., in the sales office on the first floor of **Muyun Building**...
"Xiao Su, please sign here," said Department Manager Old Wang, his expression tinged with concern as he looked at Su Yu completing his resignation certificate. "Are you really sure you don't want to reconsider? If it's a salary issue, I can talk to President Li on your behalf."
"No need, Brother Wang; I've made up my mind." Su Yu finished signing and slid the resignation certificate across the table. "But before I leave the company, I have a small request. I hope you can accommodate me."
"What request?" Old Wang's expression shifted to one of vigilance. "You're not thinking about taking our wealthy female clients with you, are you? Even if you leave, I won't let my guard down!"
"Brother Wang, you've misunderstood." Su Yu smiled, interrupting him. "I've been with the company for a year, and in that time, I've only worked on the first floor in sales. I haven't had the chance to explore other departments upstairs, so I'd like to take this opportunity to visit them."
"Oh, I thought it was something serious." Old Wang visibly relaxed. "Go ahead, and if anyone asks from other departments, just tell them I let you go."
"Thank you, Brother Wang." Su Yu stood, offering a slight bow before leaving the conference room with his resignation certificate.
After exiting the sales hall, Su Yu didn't rush into action. He first placed his hand on the wall on the first floor, channeling a surge of current that quickly coursed along the wall towards the surveillance camera room.
Crack!
A sharp sound rang out as the entire monitoring system of the building went down.
If the Blue Star government were to assign Su Yu a title, it would likely be "Camera Destroyer."
With the surveillance disabled, Su Yu began his methodical search for the Skrulls' traces, layer by layer.
...
Skrulls are distinct with their green skin and drastically different physiques compared to Blue Star humans. However, each Skrull possesses an innate skill—**camouflage**. They can easily disguise themselves as humans, often mimicking their target so closely that even those unfamiliar with the target would have trouble discerning the truth.
The Singer Civilization once referred to the Skrulls as "natural spies," highlighting their extraordinary ability in this regard.
Despite the Skrulls' impressive camouflage capabilities, Su Yu remained confident in his ability to find them. The rationale was straightforward: **psionic power**.
Given that the psychic recovery of the entire Blue Star was only just beginning, it was unlikely that ordinary Blue Star humans possessed any psionic abilities. Therefore, if Su Yu encountered anyone with psionic energy, that individual would either be an ancient power resurrected or a Skrull warrior.
Ancient powers would certainly not choose to work at such a lackluster company post-recovery, which meant that any individual exhibiting psionic power was undoubtedly a Skrull warrior.
Armed with this knowledge, Su Yu began his diligent search throughout the entire building.
