Capítulo 1491: Chapter 1178: Borrowing a Ship
“I know, but the ones asking for help aren’t just people from the Federation and Hongji Empire, there’s also Li Ruiqi. Back on the Black Brilliance, Li Ruiqi often looked out for , I owe him for recognizing my potential. Seeing this rescue mission, I can’t just pretend I haven’t seen it.”
Su Mo responded in a deep voice.
“Do as you wish.”
The creator · Swallower replied in a low tone.
Su Mo then said to Luo Yue, “I want to take this mission, tell directly what I need to be aware of.”
“Uh, you really want to take it?”
Luo Yue said awkwardly, feeling like perhaps she was leading Su Mo into trouble.
“Yes, tell in detail.”
“Well, to be frank, this mission can’t be done by you alone. Such a search and rescue usually requires starships or even fleets, so your…”
“You an I need to prepare a starship?”
“Yes, and it can’t be just an ordinary starship, it needs one with good performance.”
“Level 5 starship?”
Su Mo asked with a slight frown.
“Level 5 barely works, but I recomnd a Star Destroyer.”
Luo Yue’s voice beca lesser as she spoke.
Su Mo’s mouth twitched slightly before saying, “What else?”
“Also, for outposts missing for a long ti like this, they’re usually very short on resources; maybe you should bring so?”
Luo Yue continued to inform Su Mo.
Su Mo took a deep breath, calming his emotions, then raised his head to ask, “What next?”
“Uh, not much, just make sure if you can’t find it, don’t push yourself. If things beco too difficult, you must return the sa way, don’t get lost out there in the cosmic void, otherwise, it’s truly over.”
Luo Yue told Su Mo most of the precautions.
“Alright, I will pay attention. Go ahead and accept the task, then assign it to .”
Su Mo nodded in agreent.
“Okay!”
Luo Yue promptly accepted the mission and sent it to Su Mo.
Soon, Su Mo’s bracelet vibrated.
“Notice: You have received a new mission · The Call of the Lost. Kindly be reminded this mission involves uncontrollable risks, the rewards for the mission are unknown, do you wish to accept?”
“Accept.”
Su Mo unhesitatingly tapped to accept.
Seeing Su Mo accept the task, Luo Yue said to Su Mo, “I… I’ll go to work now.”
“Go ahead.”
Su Mo nodded in reply.
“Okay.”
Luo Yue saluted Su Mo, then turned to leave.
The creator · Swallower said in a low voice to Su Mo, “Where will you get a ship?”
“I’m considering buying one. I still have one trillion Star Coins and forty million rit points in hand, buying a ship shouldn’t be difficult, right.”
Su Mo said calmly.
“That’s not necessarily true, Radiant City isn’t Star Ring City, it’s not that easy to buy. Especially since you’re looking for advanced starships or Star Destroyers, there’s even less hope.”
The creator · Swallower directly reminded Su Mo.
“Fair point, money and rit aren’t easy to co by. Actually, I think it’s not quite suitable, even if I really overco challenges and procure advanced starships and Star Destroyers, I face another serious issue, who would I have operate them? You know, a single advanced starship or Star Destroyer requires at least tens of thousands of personnel to launch and fight normally.”
Su Mo’s headache grew the more he thought.
“What are you planning to do?”
The creator · Swallower asked deeply.
“Let think about it.”
Su Mo returned to his room, lay on the bed, and started pondering the best solution.
Ti slowly passed, more than an hour later.
Su Mo suddenly sat up.
“Have you thought of a solution?”
The creator · Swallower asked in a low tone.
“Ask soone for help.”
Su Mo took a deep breath and said.
“Who would you ask?”
“Xia Weiya, borrow a ship and crew from her, her n are veterans, they must be experienced in rescue work.”
“Are you sure she will help you?”
“Give it a try, worse cos to worst, offer her a huge sum of Star Coins.”
Su Mo responded decisively.
Seeing Su Mo say this, the creator · Swallower remained silent.
Su Mo imdiately picked up his electronic bracelet and sent Xia Weiya a ssage.
“Are you available?”
“That’s rare, for you to take the initiative to ssage today, what’s up?”
Xia Weiya’s response quickly popped up.
“I need to talk to you about sothing, do you have ti for a face-to-face discussion?”
Su Mo hesitated for a mont, then edited and sent a ssage.
“et at the A1 district central street, Sky Restaurant.”
“Alright.”
…
Su Mo got up and left.
A mont later, Su Mo arrived at the central street, found Sky Restaurant according to the address. It’s a towering restaurant, lavishly and grandly decorated inside and out.
At that mont, an intriguing female manager approached, saluted Su Mo.
“Hello, are you Mr. Su Mo?”
“Yes.”
“Miss Xia Weiya is waiting for you upstairs, please follow .”
“Okay.”
Su Mo nodded and followed the female manager into the restaurant. The imnse restaurant was empty; not a soul to be seen, so he asked curiously.
“Your business seems rather rare here?”
“Mr. Su Mo, you’re quite the joker. Our restaurant business is exceedingly good, usually full to capacity every day. But whenever our miss cos to dine, we’re not open to the public.”
“Uh? This restaurant belongs to her?”
Su Mo said, quite surprised.
“Indeed.”
The female manager replied with a smile.
Su Mo realized Xia Weiya was indeed quite wealthy, her ventures are everywhere.
Soon, Su Mo followed the female manager and took the floating elevator to the top floor.
There, Xia Weiya sat alone at the edge of a crystal window, sipping ruby wine, lazily admiring the exquisite night view.
Su Mo was led to sit in front of Xia Weiya.
Xia Weiya looked at Su Mo with interest, “Since the last ti I invited you to my place, it seems over a month has passed.”
“About that.”
“I thought you’d invite back the next day, but I didn’t expect such a long wait—do you hold a grudge against !”
Xia Weiya asked with a light laugh.
“Cough, cough, not at all! You know I’m just an ordinary person, not up to speed on those formalities.”
Su Mo replied awkwardly.
“Haha, alright, I won’t tease you, why did you co to ?”
Xia Weiya poured Su Mo a cup of excellent wine, its scent was alluring, so much so that rely inhaling felt pleasant.
“Here’s the thing, I want to ask if you have an extra Star Destroyer, and whether you could lend both the ship and its crew.”
Su Mo said thick-skinnedly.
Xia Weiya, hearing Su Mo’s request, revealed a playful smile, sizing up Su Mo.
“I could, but you need to tell what you need them for? Are you onto sothing good?”
“Cough, cough, it’s nothing good.”
“I don’t believe that, are you afraid I’ll ask for a share? I’m actually very modest in my demands.”
Xia Weiya said with interest.
“You’re mistaken, really nothing good. If there was sothing good, I’d certainly ask if you want to be involved.”
Su Mo replied with a bitter smile.
“Alright, your statent is assurance enough; I’ll lend you the ship and crew.”
