Chapter 1537: 1425, Handling Omir

"Well..." Daland Military Chief lowered his head to think.

After a few seconds, he raised his head and said, "How about this, I will make Omir publicly apologize to the citizens at the hub and return all the belongings he had looted in the past.

If he or his subordinates caused casualties during the robbery, there must be compensation paid to the families of the victims.

As for other penalties... Since we are in urgent need of manpower now, my suggestion is to revoke his General title and send him to the front lines of the battlefield as an ordinary soldier, where he can atone for his crimes in battle.

What does everyone think?"

"Well... I suppose that’s acceptable," Chief Soren pondered aloud.

"I think that’s a fairly appropriate way to handle it," Speaker Lemo said after hearing the suggestion.

"I have no objections."

"This resolution works for me."

Several others echoed their agreement.

After all, with the war looming, manpower is critical. They couldn’t impose a severe penalty on Omir — like locking him up for decades — under these circumstances.

"What about Su Yu?" Chief Soren glanced at Ashley before turning his gaze to Daland Military Chief.

Ashley hadn’t said anything earlier; she had just crossed her arms and watched coldly.

"Regarding Su Yu," Daland Military Chief said seriously, "I will personally visit Su Yu to seek his forgiveness on behalf of Omir.

Councilor Su Yu has always maintained a good relationship with us in the Defense Force, particularly with Journeyman Gride, the former Quartermaster who used to be part of the Defense Force system. In this matter, we have wronged him, and I hope he can forgive us."

Upon hearing this, Ashley finally spoke.

She crossed her arms and stated indifferently, "Daland, since you’re planning to see Su Yu, I’ll join you as well. I can act as a witness."

"What..." Daland Military Chief’s face darkened.

Ashley wanted to go with him? Wasn’t this deliberately putting him in a difficult position?

If he went alone, Su Yu wouldn’t dare say much in front of him, given his position. Wouldn’t Su Yu forgive Omir in mere minutes?

With just a bit of pressure and some tempting offers, Su Yu could certainly be swayed.

But now Ashley wanted to tag along.

With Ashley there, how could he use such methods? He couldn’t possibly lower himself to genuinely apologize on Omir’s behalf, could he?

The atmosphere grew noticeably stiff, and the other Stellar-level players sensed the tension.

With war imminent and unity being paramount, Speaker Lemo stepped in diplomatically: "Since the two of you plan to visit Su Yu, why don’t we all go together?"

"All of us?" Daland Military Chief and Ashley exchanged confused looks with everyone else.

"Yes, all of us," Speaker Lemo nodded. "Let’s not forget that our primary mission over the next ten days is to ensure the protection of AI Blue Whale.

Su Yu is the former owner of AI Blue Whale. This matter must be brought to his attention, and he should be involved in its safeguarding. This issue is critical and cannot afford any negligence!"

"Alright, let’s all go together," Chief Soren said, being the first to support the idea.

Chief Soren realized that Speaker Lemo was diplomatically smoothing things over for Daland. It was indeed the appropriate action; unity was essential in such times.

Chief Soren chuckled and added, "I just didn’t expect we would be returning together to Star Sector 170.

The last time we all went there together was a month ago — wasn’t that also because of AI Blue Whale?

And now, once again, we’re heading there to see Councilor Su Yu."

Gran’s main form was a gigantic brown plant, and now he swayed his leaves as he remarked, "Councilor Su Yu, having just entered Planet-level, is already attracting so much attention.

But this shouldn’t become a norm, right? He reminds me of Jared — faded into obscurity after just a short while."

Gran’s mention of "Jared" referred to the hub’s chief scientist, whose team developed the hub’s first Level-2 AI. When Su Yu handed over AI Blue Whale to the hub, its recipient was none other than the chief scientist.

Back then, Jared was also incredibly high-profile, causing a stir comparable to Su Yu now!

But ultimately, strength dictated reputation. While Planet-level fame was notable, it remained Planet-level, and within just a few fleeting years, Jared had become a mere shadow on the periphery.

Of course, "obscurity" was only true from the Stellar-level perspective. In the eyes of ordinary civilians, Jared was still the most renowned Planet-level figure, bar none.

Gem Dragon Lucia chimed in, "Yes, Councilor Su Yu’s meteoric rise won’t last very long, considering he’s only just entered Planet-level.

But his future prospects are likely exceptional — after all, he’s not even 30 yet!"

Speaker Lemo shook his head. "Who knows why the hymn decided to promote someone so young to Planet-level."

"Well, it’s not entirely unprecedented," Gem Dragon Lucia interjected. "If someone performs outstandingly during the First Civilization Ascension, becoming a pivotal figure who averts disaster, they can be exceptionally promoted to Planet-level."

"But hasn’t it been thousands of years since such an instance?" Chief Soren rubbed his chin thoughtfully.

"Indeed, it hasn’t happened for thousands of years," Speaker Lemo tried to recall. "The last time seemed to be eight or nine thousand years ago.

But some time ago, with the hymn nearing extinction, everything it did was rather unconventional."

Not wanting the conversation to turn somber, Chief Soren waved his hand dismissively. "Alright, let’s not dwell on this any longer. Let’s get moving."

"Let’s go—time to depart."

With that, the Stellar-level leaders ended their discussion.

Each of them employed their advanced techniques to head toward Star Sector 170. Above Star Sector 1, several graceful arcs traced across the sky, and in the blink of an eye, they were gone.
