He communicated with the creator·Swallower: "How much Star Coin do you think these countries’ extracted resources are worth?"
"A lot, beyond your imagination. Sotis I really admire you folks, you can’t do anything right, but when it cos to resource extraction, each of you is an expert. Star Ring City’s rapid developnt in recent years, you all deserve a lot of credit!"
The creator·Swallower replied deeply.
"Are you praising us or belittling us? Why does it sound so strange?"
Su Mo responded with a wry smile.
"Humph."
The creator·Swallower was too lazy to argue further.
Soon, Su Mo and his team entered Thunder Base, and inside the base, even the corridors were stacked with advanced supply crates on both sides.
The passage left for people to walk through was narrowed, causing Su Mo to shake his head repeatedly at the sight of the crates.
Not long after, Su Mo arrived at the Federation’s gathering area in Thunder Base.
Upon seeing this gathering area, apart from the resting place for the wounded, all other places were fully stacked with supply crates.
Su Mo’s mouth twitched slightly, it seed the Federation had quite the yield on Ceres as well.
"Su Mo, you’re back?"
At this mont, Augustus, who was patrolling, saw Su Mo and ca over to greet him.
"How are the situations in the Federation’s regions?"
Su Mo nodded and asked.
"Basically, there are no major problems, the rescue teams have all been dispatched."
Augustus replied in high spirits.
"Alright, as long as there’s no problem, I just wanted to confirm."
After confirming that there were no issues with the Federation, Su Mo stretched lazily; the issues on Ceres were finally resolved.
Qian Chengxue, seeing that the rescue operations had concluded, curiously asked Su Mo.
"Su Mo, what are you going to do next? Leaving Ceres soon?"
"Yeah, almost, can’t stay here forever. But before that, there’s sothing to do."
Su Mo thought for a mont and replied.
"What thing?"
Augustus asked quite curiously.
Su Mo then, with a broad smile, looked at Augustus.
"Lord Augustus, there’s sothing I need to tell you."
"What is it? Just say it, as long as it’s sothing I can do."
Augustus responded with magnanimity, waving his hand.
"It’s like this, I’m short of doctors in my team, and coincidentally Lan Xi used to be one of my team mbers, so I thought I’d take her along this ti."
Su Mo said cheerfully to Augustus.
Augustus’s originally smiling face instantly stiffened, like a cat whose tail was stepped on, instinctively responding.
"No, absolutely not."
"Why not?"
Su Mo was a bit baffled.
Beside him, Qian Chengxue was also increasingly curious, inevitably looking at Augustus.
"Can’t you pick soone else, Dr. Lan Xi was trained by the Federation with a massive amount of resources, and she’s imnsely capable herself. She’s been researching and studying on Ceres for years, in a way, she’s no longer just a doctor but is now a research doctor in biodicine. She’s supposed to lead the new biodical research laboratory that the Federation is setting up; if I agree to this, the parliant will trouble endlessly."
Augustus was also overwheld.
Hearing this, Qian Chengxue snickered, Su Mo looked like he hit a nerve.
Su Mo coughed and said: "You can’t say that, shouldn’t the decision to stay or leave be Lan Xi’s own choice? That’s true freedom and democracy."
"Cut it out, but since you’ve ntioned it, it’s highly likely Dr. Lan Xi will follow you."
Augustus looked as though he had swallowed a bitter gourd.
"We have such a good relationship, can’t you just turn a blind eye?"
Su Mo laughed and said.
After hearing this, Augustus’s expression kept changing, eventually gritting his teeth and stamping his foot, saying.
"Don’t tell about this, I didn’t hear anything, let her do whatever she wants."
Su Mo imdiately laughed and said to Augustus: "I knew you were the best! Then I’ll go to Observer Base to pick her up."
"I didn’t hear anything, don’t tell ."
Augustus started playing dumb.
Just then, the broadcast from Thunder Base suddenly sounded.
"Hello everyone, I am Baryk, the defense commander of Thunder Base. There is the latest news to announce, so please listen carefully."
Instantly, everyone inside and outside Thunder Base temporarily paused what they were doing.
Su Mo was also quite curious, what was Baryk going to announce?
"According to the latest feedback, the crisis at Revalclus Base has been resolved!"
Baryk announced calmly.
The mont this news was heard, everyone in Thunder Base, regardless of which country they were from, all cheered excitedly.
"Great, the crisis at Revalclus Base is resolved!"
"It’s great that nothing happened there too, this crisis might be over."
"Aweso."
...
Augustus, upon hearing this bombshell news, after a brief shock, couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
If Revalclus Base is fine, it ans the large number of personnel from the Federation hiding there are also safe.
Su Mo was in a good mood too, it was truly good things happening in pairs.
Just when everyone was ecstatic, Commander Baryk suddenly spoke again: "Everyone calm down!"
The jubilant crowd quieted down one by one, then Commander Baryk said solemnly.
"Thunder Base has now received a special signal from the frontline strategic dispatch room, and will be relaying the signal. Everyone, please pay attention to your electronic bracelets."
As soon as the words fell.
Buzz~
Almost all the high-level personnel of each country and Star Ring City Officers had their electronic bracelets vibrating.
This included the electronic bracelets of Su Mo and Augustus.
Su Mo imdiately raised his electronic bracelet and glanced at the ssage that popped up.
"Dear Lord Su Mo, please unlock the confidential file folder in advance!"
Seeing this text ssage, Su Mo couldn’t help but twitch his eyelid. It was clearly not the ti Lord Icaroya ntioned, yet the information needed to be unlocked early. Was the previously ntioned ti rely a diversion?
"Su Mo, what’s wrong?"
Qian Chengxue, seeing Su Mo’s shocked expression, asked with so concern.
"Sothing big has happened, there’s a mission."
Su Mo simply told Qian Chengxue, not that he didn’t want to explain, but the mission had to remain confidential.
Qian Chengxue, hearing Su Mo say this, although quite worried, didn’t ask further questions.
At this ti, Su Mo decisively took out the confidential file folder he had kept close, swiftly opened it, and looked at its contents.
Only to find inside, there was just a secret note.
Su Mo took it out, scanned it, and then input the code number from the secret note into his bracelet.
In an instant, Su Mo successfully activated the hidden mission, and a ssage popped up.
"Please proceed to the coordinate (4256.782, 2632) area on the outskirts of Kalenants Star Sea and work with friendly units to destroy all enemy strategic targets within the area."
