Capítulo 1314: Chapter 1010: Bad News (Bonus for Alliance Leader “I Am the Informant”) (4 Updates)
In the cockpit of the V-generation Biological cha, Light of Sin Abyss, Su Mo reversed the negative energy pollution, then leaned tiredly against the pilot seat, gazing at the drifting wreckage in space.
His mood was indescribably heavy. Although they had won, he couldn’t feel any joy.
He glanced briefly; of the three hundred chas that had jumped in, fewer than a hundred survived.
The casualties could only be described as devastating.
It should be known that those who charged in were at least General Level, not cannon fodder, all elite among elites.
However, Su Mo was a bit puzzled. If the other side hadn’t retreated and continued fighting, they might not have been completely annihilated, but certainly, very few would have escaped.
At this mont, Sith piloted the V-generation Biological cha, Fierce Apostle, and flew right in front of Su Mo.
Su Mo imdiately beca alert. The external enemies had left. They were not yet within the Ring Star Sea region, a zone where engagents could occur, and one could never be sure if the other party would suddenly turn hostile.
Sith naturally noticed Su Mo entering a guarded state, so he didn’t co too close.
He calmly said to Su Mo, “I’m pleased to have fought alongside you, but it’s purely admiration. Our stances remain opposing. I’ve co to ask if you’d return the stone tablet you took last ti. That stone tablet originally belonged to the Galmotos Empire.”
Su Mo showed a trace of an odd expression. That stone tablet belonged to the Galmotos Empire?
Wasn’t it supposed to be Star Ring City’s?
A thought flashed in Su Mo’s mind: Did he and the old man misunderstand sothing?
Quickly, Su Mo sorted it out, but even if he understood, he couldn’t possibly return the stone tablet. It was in the old man’s possession.
He had no ability to retrieve it from the old man, so he replied in a low voice.
“Impossible.”
Sith was not surprised at Su Mo’s answer. After all, who would spit out what they’ve swallowed? He didn’t utter any threats, just said.
“That stone tablet is of little use to you. Please convey a ssage to the President of Alles. If he is willing to return it, we are ready to offer a substantial reward.”
Su Mo’s expression montarily faltered; it seed like this burden was being shifted onto the Federation.
He felt that even if he tried to explain, Sith probably wouldn’t believe him.
Seeing Su Mo fall into silence, Sith continued, “I hope you can deliver the ssage. We are signing a peace treaty now, so I won’t do anything to you. But once the peace treaty ends, we will reclaim what the Galmotos Empire lost, no matter the high cost.”
With those words, Sith piloted his cha and left.
Su Mo watched Sith’s departing figure and inquired of the Fake Owner, Swallower.
“What exactly is that stone tablet?”
“If you’re not ant to know, don’t ask. When the ti cos for you to know, you will naturally understand. Also, don’t think about retrieving the stone tablet from the old man; he would fight you desperately for it.”
The Fake Owner, Swallower, warned coldly.
Su Mo’s expression was quite intriguing, and he then said, “Damn, did I ask for too little in return last ti?”
The Fake Owner, Swallower, was too lazy to reply to Su Mo, but it indirectly acknowledged that Su Mo’s words were accurate; indeed, he asked for too little.
At this mont, Su Mo’s phone vibrated. He received a ssage from Qian Chengxue via the Star Ring Forum.
“Su Mo, we’re here to pick you up.”
Seeing this ssage, a slight smile appeared on Su Mo’s tired face.
After so ti, Su Mo piloted the Light of Sin Abyss onto the Shadow, docking it in a specialized hangar.
Soon, Su Mo opened the Biological Cabin and jumped down from it.
Qian Chengxue approached with concern and hugged Su Mo, softly asking, “Are you okay?”
“I’m fine, don’t worry.”
Su Mo gently stroked Qian Chengxue’s back and spoke softly.
“Boss, who was piloting that cha you fought against, so formidable! Even you couldn’t beat them?”
Sun Duoxiang, in his excitent, asked curiously. He had never seen Su Mo so battered before, being overwheld by soone else.
Su Mo had always been the one overwhelming others.
Feeling a bit annoyed, Su Mo kicked him and said, “It’s not that I couldn’t beat them; it’s that the cha’s performance wasn’t enough. When my new cha is completed, I’ll definitely even the score.”
“Uh, you’re right, boss. It was really dangerous this ti. We all thought it was over. If the Jump Fortress had exploded a few seconds earlier, causing a jump failure, or if Commander Qin Wu hadn’t rushed in at the last mont, it would have been the end for us.”
Sun Duoxiang admitted awkwardly.
“It really was close. Wait~ you said the Jump Fortress, Light of Wisdom Star, exploded?”
Su Mo was startled and quickly asked.
“Yes, the entire fortress didn’t disintegrate. But there were partial explosions, and the power room, frawork area, and control room also collapsed.”
Qian Chengxue explained to Su Mo.
“Lin Zinuo and his father were in the control room. Are they okay?”
Su Mo asked urgently.
Qian Chengxue shook her head and replied, “Their status is unclear, and they are still being rescued. We also wanted to get closer to help, but the Federation GT Departnt has sealed off the entire fortress, not allowing anyone to approach, considering it’s the Federation’s most advanced technological product.”
“Quick! Return!”
Su Mo’s expression grew even more serious.
….
Several hours later.
The Shadow returned to the original location.
Su Mo stood on the observatory, gazing at the Jump Fortress, Light of Wisdom Star, whose once circular shape had now beco elliptical.
The expansive fortress still sparked with electricity everywhere.
Occasionally, cables snapped and broke apart.
Federation battleships surrounded the massive fortress, sealing it off, and driving away all irrelevant personnel.
They also dispatched a Space Fortress over, floating next to the Jump Fortress, specifically for accommodating rescued survivors and recovered corpses.
At this point, Su Mo’s phone vibrated again, showing a ssage from Hai Yue.
“I’ve arranged it, you can approach now. But I must tell you, the situation is very grim. There were heavy casualties in the control room. Regardless of the outco, don’t be too upset.”
“I understand, thank you.”
Su Mo responded with a heavy heart, editing a ssage in reply.
“Su Mo? What’s wrong? Is the situation not good?”
Qian Chengxue also asked worriedly.
“It’s really bad. Move the ship over; I’ve already reported it.”
Su Mo spoke bleakly.
Soon, the Shadow maneuvered close to the Space Fortress, allowing Su Mo and the others to board it smoothly.
Inside the fortress’s hangar, many injured personnel were lying about, along with nurous bodies covered in white sheets. So were incomplete, with only half remaining.
At first glance, there were only a few survivors; most were corpses.
Doctors were urgently performing rescues on the surviving personnel.
Su Mo stopped a staff mber and asked, “Have any people been rescued from the control room?”
“The control room collapsed; nearly everyone inside died. The recovered bodies are over there. I have urgent matters, so I won’t speak much; you should see for yourself.”
With that, the staff mber hurriedly left.
