With the first rays of morning sunlight, Ye Yu awoke from his slumber. He then sat cross-legged, palms facing upward, and began his practice. According to Huang Laowai's teachings, this was a form of breathing exercise that every practitioner of martial arts would perform to forge their body through the power of nature.
Although this method resulted in a very slow enhancement of physical strength and required a long period of time, it was the most effective way to improve personal abilities. Those with exceptional talent could gain capabilities that ordinary people could not achieve through daily, uninterrupted practice.
At that moment, Ye Yu felt a warm current flowing slowly throughout his body, yet he could not truly grasp that sensation. It was like the vast waters of a river flowing freely along its course, eventually converging at a single point. This feeling was refreshing; within just a few minutes, it seemed as if the river's waters had traversed every part of Ye Yu's being. The morning drowsiness vanished without a trace, leaving him with a sense of clarity and vitality.
Huang Laowai had told him to practice for at least half an hour according to that method, which equated to one unit of time in the Federation. Ye Yu gently closed his eyes, savoring the morning's birdsong and floral fragrance, as well as the soft light and dew, gradually entering a wondrous state. Even around him, there seemed to be an ethereal flow of energy rising and swirling.
After cycling through this practice five times, Ye Yu sensed a tingling sensation throughout his body and decided to stop his training. The tingling indicated that his body had been sufficiently forged for the day. He understood that everything needed to be done step by step.
When Ye Yu opened his eyes again, the once gentle light had become somewhat glaring. In an instant, he blurred and vanished from sight. His speed seemed to have increased compared to yesterday.
Number 7, a robot dressed in a maid outfit, had already prepared washing supplies and a nutritious breakfast for Ye Yu. As for Jin Shan, he had retreated into his spherical form; naturally, he could not consume grains like carbon-based life forms.
The butler from Yesterday's City Lord's Mansion arrived punctually at Ye Yu's loft, respectfully waiting for him to emerge before stepping forward to present him with a box nearly half his height.
"This is the equipment promised by you for Mr. Ye Yu; please check it," said the meticulously groomed butler with his hair slicked back. Compared to Number 7, he resembled a robot even more closely, speaking almost not at all.
Ye Yu nodded in acknowledgment and gestured for the butler to proceed as he wished. He returned to his room and opened the rather large box.
Inside were not many items; one was a black jacket and matching black trousers that caught the eye—indeed, it was the Silver Dragon Armor mentioned by Long Yin Yue! Instinctively touching the fabric, Ye Yu found it cool and silky to the touch, reminiscent of the exquisite silk from the Blue Seal Empire that his mother had once mentioned. Holding it in his hands made it feel almost weightless; he could hardly believe it possessed such formidable defensive capabilities.
The other item was an intricately designed Phase Gun, its barrel glinting ominously! Ye Yu knew this was no ordinary Phase Gun; its power allowed it to fire Laser Beams equivalent to those produced by a Phase Cannon while boasting an astonishing number of uses. This was thanks to the high-density Energy Crystal within the Phase Gun, which could sustain the operation of a mech during an intense battle!
However, the purification process for this high-density crystal is extremely difficult, so only a few specialized weapons are equipped with such Energy Crystals. Even so, this type of gun is not something that can be casually assigned; after all, when Ye Yu was at Arrow Camp, he had only seen this Phase Gun once.
As for the other item, it was a sword! This was also specifically requested by Ye Yu; he needed a slender sword that was one meter long. The hilt was made of black metal, appearing quite heavy. The scabbard looked rather ordinary, but the intricate patterns carved on it exuded a strong sense of antiquity, clearly indicating it was a fine piece.
"Clang—" As Ye Yu slowly drew the slender sword from its sheath, a distant and clear sound echoed in his ears.
"A good sword!"
Ye Yu squinted his eyes; the blade before him glimmered with a piercing cold light under the morning sun's reflection, making it difficult even for him to look directly at it. This sword was clearly forged through countless trials; otherwise, it wouldn't emanate such a strong aura of menace even before being drawn. Even as the wielder, Ye Yu felt a chilling sensation sweep over him! Such a sword certainly deserved to be called a good sword.
This time, he was on a secret mission, and using mechs would be out of the question; that would surely lead to being quickly surrounded. As for the Phase Gun, firing it would release intense energy radiation that could easily be detected. Therefore, cold weapons were undoubtedly the best choice.
During his time at Arrow Camp, Ye Yu had executed many missions where cold weapons proved to be more effective. After all, when infiltrating an enemy stronghold, what mattered more was stealth and the ability to complete objectives.
When Ye Yu finished examining these items, he noticed there was also a silver device at the bottom of the box. He recognized this device as an identification scanner used for identity collection.
Ye Yu took a glance; the basic identity data had already been collected. Now he just needed to confirm it. He raised the device and scanned his face! Then he dropped a drop of his blood into one of the small holes on the device!
Soon, his personal information was fully collected, meaning he would now have an identity!
Ye Yu, male, born on April 8th, 996 AD, currently serving as Captain of the Third Squad in the Northern Special Administrative Star Silver Dragon Star Silver Dragon Guard Fifth Brigade, residing at Room 204 in Bamboo Grove Courtyard of Silver Dragon Star Central District...
This information was simple; it merely introduced Ye Yu's basic situation. However, Ye Yu knew that aside from the first three pieces of information being true, everything else was fabricated—completely false information created by Long Yin Yue! He understood what this information represented: he was no longer the "dead" Ye Yu born in Federation Homeworld but rather Ye Yu living on Silver Dragon Star and now serving as a captain in Silver Dragon Guard! Countless young people in the Federation aspired to join Silver Dragon Guard; even with light-years separating them, nothing could dampen their enthusiasm to join. But now Ye Yu not only joined but had also become one of its squad leaders—what an honor!
Ye Yu felt a surge of excitement; after all, he was still just an eighteen-year-old boy. Young people always revel in such honors!
