Of course, Sikinkov generously helped and gradually released the people.
Su Mo didn't save these Tiger Teeth rcenaries out of kindness but for the developnt of the Edge rcenary Corps.
These rcenaries are just looking to make a living, they're just working folks.
If they could serve Tiger Teeth, they can certainly serve Edge too.
With the fall of Tiger Teeth, these rcenaries lost their jobs and even faced prison ti. If you pull them up at this ti, they would surely be grateful.
At that ti, they might not be die-hard loyal, but at least they would be more reliable than those recruited from scratch.
Moreover, the Edge rcenary Corps is in a period of rapid expansion and desperately needs new blood.
This kind of mutually beneficial situation, why not do it?
After careful selection by Su Mo, a total of more than 300 rcenaries were taken in from Tiger Teeth in recent days, along with those screened from other channels.
Adding to the rcenaries originally in the corps, the total number of the Edge rcenary Corps expanded to 612, with 514 being combat rcenaries.
This scale ans that Edge has officially transitioned from a small to a dium-sized rcenary corps.
More importantly, this expansion was completed within a year.
In the rcenary realm of New Moon City, those who accomplish this feat receive a special "achievent."
"Ding dong." The computer signaled that there was a new email in the inbox.
Su Mo opened the email, a smile appeared on his face.
The email was sent by Zhou Hanyan.
The content was: [Director Su, you have been officially recognized as a supernova in the New Moon City rcenary realm, joining the "Seven Stars of New Moon," and the industry's title for you is "On Star"]
[Congratulations on receiving this honor, I hope you will not disappoint and continue to lead the Edge rcenary Corps forward]
Supernova is a special term in the rcenary realm of New Moon City.
Any rcenary corps leader who rises from nothing and can lead the team to expand to a scale of more than 500 combat rcenaries within a year will be recognized as a "supernova."
The "Seven Stars of New Moon" represent the seven supernova leaders who achieved this feat in recent years within the rcenary realm of New Moon City.
The Tiger Teeth leader Ou Chenyu was originally one of the Seven Stars, with the industry title "Celestial Abyss Star."
After Ou Chenyu's death, Su Mo took his place, so the number of supernovas remained unchanged, still seven.
And because Su Mo is the only rcenary corps leader among the supernovas who rose by defeating an original Seven Star, he was given the title "On Star."
In the rcenary realm of New Moon City, the Seven Stars forces are not the strongest, after all, the city still has many large rcenary corps, like Scythe of Death, with over 27,000 combat personnel.
Seven Stars forces have a considerable gap compared to the old Great rcenaries, but they are definitely recognized as the most potential up-and-cors, they are the industry's focus, and countless employers and interdiaries try to establish contact with them.
Su Mo leading the Edge rcenary Corps to achieve this honor ans a new level in his developnt in the rcenary realm, there will be more opportunities, and correspondingly more challenges.
Su Mo replied to the email, politely exchanged official pleasantries with Zhou Hanyan, then took a fruit basket to the hovercar garage.
He drove the black Ark to a public sanatorium in the Anmi New District.
"Hello." The reception nurse stood up to greet him.
Su Mo: "Hello, I'm Su Mo, I scheduled a visit to a patient through a phone call earlier."
"Mm-hmm, this way please." The nurse led the way to the health care area.
The nurse arrived at the top-level, most luxurious lakeside ward, knocked on the door, and went inside, softly saying, "Captain Ivan, soone has co to see you."
Su Mo poked his head in from outside the door, "Hey, brother, hope I'm not disturbing your rest?"
Ivan lay on a chanically designed dical bed for Prosthetic Implanters, his entire body connected with various chanical wires, the vital signs monitor at the bedside showed steady readings.
He had just undergone surgery by a prosthetic doctor, the damaged components were all replaced with new ones, but many surgical wounds still needed further repair, preventing him from getting out of bed.
A beautiful woman was feeding Ivan porridge, with a teenager standing beside her about the age of KK.
Ivan slightly shook his head indicating he was full, then looked at Su Mo, his voice hoarse and barely audible: "You're here... I told you not to bring anything, but here you are with a gift."
Su Mo placed the fruit basket on the table, intentionally smiled mischievously, "It's not for you, don't be so self-indulgent. It's for your wife and son."
"Director Su, here's so water for you." The woman handed Su Mo a glass of water, pulled the teenager beside her, and said, "John, greet your brother."
John greeted obediently, "Hello, brother."
Su Mo smiled and said, "Hello, kid, you look energetic, you'll definitely outshine your father when you grow up."
John shyly rubbed the back of his head.
Ivan affectionately said, "I'd rather John live as an ordinary person, not like , making my family worry all the ti."
The woman looked at Ivan, filled with surgical scars, and secretly wiped her tears.
Ivan felt the atmosphere was sowhat oppressive, so he proactively said, "Darling, why don't you take John for a walk by the lake, let have a chat with Director Su for a while."
"Okay." The woman said goodbye with John to Su Mo and left the room.
After his wife and son left, Ivan looked at Su Mo with a deep aning: "I heard from the brothers that you annexed Tiger Teeth's forces and officially beca a Star. I'm here to congratulate you first."
Su Mo sat on a chair, feeling emotional: "Couldn't have done it without your help, you were the one who fought most fiercely with Ou Chenyu... brother, I owe you a big one."
Ivan let out a short laugh: "Don't weigh yourself down. I went after Ou Chenyu not to help you, but to execute orders against criminals and uphold New Moon City's justice. It's my duty, no need to feel indebted."
Su Mo nodded, not dwelling on it: "Anyway, in the future if there's anything I can help with, don't hesitate to ask."
Ivan pondered for a mont, then said: "Director Su, from a personal perspective, I'm happy to call you a friend, hang out for drinks anyti."
"But when it cos to official matters, let's keep our distance."
"You're a rcenary, I'm a law enforcer, you're this city's dark side, I'm the bright side, we shouldn't mingle too much."
"This ti Ou Chenyu crossed the line, and we cleared him by law. In the future, if you cross the line, I'll do the sa without hesitation."
"Business is business, personal is personal, we need to differentiate at all tis. I speak plainly, sotis it might sound harsh, so please understand."
Su Mo slightly smiled after listening.
Ivan is just that kind of person, a very pure person.
In the murky waters of the Dawn Realm, this Anti-Violence Captain can be considered a breath of fresh air.
In 27 years of anti-violence career, participating in nearly a thousand bloody battles on the front line, he has received special first-class rits and first-class rits specifically issued for the deceased 15 tis, and served without taking a single month coin besides salary.
A just and upright law enforcer, that simple label sums up Ivan completely.
For such a pure person, Su Mo always felt respect.
But aside from the respect, there was also a sense of sadness.
Because the purer the person, the harder it is for them to make it to the end in the Dawn Realm...
They have no idea what a colossal darkness they are facing.
Su Mo looked into Ivan's eyes and said deeply: "I've rembered what you said. I also have sothing to say to you."
"You've been in New Moon City for a longer ti, but I'm sure you don't know as much about this city as I do."
"Everywhere, there are many things that are not black or white, right or wrong are often not clear."
"The city doesn't just have a bright side and a dark side, there are a lot of intertwined light and shadows, unimaginable things."
"Having principles like steel is good, but if everything has to be so black and white, uncompromising... it's not necessarily a good thing."
Su Mo grasped Ivan's arm, got up to leave, and left a aningful ssage: "Captain Ivan, keep my words in mind, it will help you go further."
