Chapter 534: Chapter 307 The Son of Heaven’s Intelligence_2

Actually, before he invited him, he had guessed that someone as proud as the Son of Heaven would probably not choose to lower himself.

However, the reason given by the Son of Heaven took Mu You by surprise. He didn’t refuse because of his own feelings, but to take care of the emotions of his subordinates.

At this point, Mu You also realized that, following today’s events, the blond young man in front of him seemed to have undergone a subtle transformation.

In the past, although he had always maintained the image of a gracious, humble, and impeccable gentleman, his inner pride was something anyone close to him could feel. He was like a sharp, drawn sword, his dignity radiating outwardly.

But now, while his image and behavior haven’t changed, he has lost that overbearing aura. He has become much more reserved.

"Actually, the main reason I came here is to share some intelligence with you." Having exchanged some pleasantries, the Son of Heaven finally stated the purpose of his visit.

"Oh? What is it?" asked Mu You.

"It’s an information I came across by chance half a month ago. About the City Lord... every Sky City can open a kind of ’Underground City’ once it has been upgraded to level 3. As the name suggests, it refers to the opening of a path leading to the realm beneath the Sky City, allowing players to team up and explore the interior of the Sky City."

"Each player has a limited number of times and duration to explore this dungeon every day. The difficulty increases as one goes deeper. But beneath the lowest level of the dungeon, there is a concealed chamber that only the City Lord of each city can enter..."

"I’m not sure what’s inside, but according to the information I’ve got, once the City Lord enters this mysterious space, they can uncover many truths concerning the Sky City, the Fool’s Ancestors, and even the ’Fool’ game itself." The Son of Heaven spoke seriously.

"So I need to open this Underground City as soon as possible and arrange for explorations, right?" Mu You got his point.

"Yes."

The Son of Heaven nodded, "Being the first Sky City, Dawn City should be ahead in progress. This place could very possibly hold the truth about the Fool and the Star Spirit World. To us humans, the sooner we get this information, the better."

"I understand."

Mu You nodded and looked at the Son of Heaven, "Thank you for the information... However, you certainly have some demands since you came to me with this. Please, feel free to speak."

"Yes."

The Son of Heaven didn’t beat around the bush, "I hope that after you return, you could possibly withhold the details about this City Lord competition for a while and not announce it to the public."

"Oh? Are you planning on vying for another city?" Mu You looked at the Son of Heaven in surprise.

Although the emergence of Dawn City has been announced to everyone, only the few hundreds involved in the competition are aware of the process of the competition.

If the Son of Heaven asked him not to reveal the details now, it was obviously not because he was afraid of embarrassing himself if the process was given away. Rather, he was evidently preparing to contend for other cities, in order to prevent the leaking of information about their capability and flaws, and if they could keep the internal details of the Sky City a secret, it would increase their chances of winning future battles.

"Yes."

The Son of Heaven nodded directly, "I confess my defeat in this competition and understand that we were too arrogant before and inadequately prepared. This experience will be a valuable asset. I still have a piece from another city. Though it’s only one and an ordinary piece, we decided to give it our all again."

"This time, we’re not in the upper hand position, but just an insignificant pursuer. Our hope of becoming the City Lord is slim, but my subordinates and I will adjust our mindset and try again. Regardless of the outcome, we won’t have any regret."

Mu You pondered for a moment and said, "I can agree not to publicize this information. However, if some piece holders who have connections with me come to inquire about the competition process, I will still share some details to increase their chances of winning. After all, this also serves my interest."

What Mu You meant primarily included the Lion, who was one of the competitors for Sun City, and also the domestic dragon team and the Ice Emperor, who had definitively aimed to conquer a certain city.

If these people came to inquire, Mu You would provide them with some details. Having these relatively friendly forces take over the Sky City was also advantageous to him.

Moreover, Mu You still had to compete for the City of Eternal Night later. Of course, he wouldn’t voluntarily publicize the information, as that would be stirring up trouble for himself.

"Thank you, that’s enough."

The Son of Heaven breathed a sigh of relief. He certainly knew that it was impossible to prevent private intelligence from being shared. It was already beneficial to prevent the news from making headlines. If they had the misfortune to come across those few related, they would consider it their bad luck.

Moreover, even if the Ghost Captain kept quiet, after the competitors of other cities finished their battles, they might potentially leak the information. It was extremely difficult to thoroughly prevent anything. All he could do was to do his best and leave the rest to fate.

"Good luck. I hope the next time I see you, it will be as equals among City Lords." Mu You smiled.
