Chapter 988: Chapter 413: Unexpected Surprise (Five-in-One) (Part 6)
There’s a risk in trading with others and they might get cheated, but at least it’s secure to trade with Su Ming.
“Lord Alfaku, we’re all straightforward people. I have a good relationship with you, so I won’t ask for much. How about we settle for 200 billion Energy Crystals for the whole package?”
Su Ming offered a very low price.
After hearing Su Ming’s words, Alfaku raised his hand and slamd it on the table.
Bang!
Su Ming and the others were all startled, exchanging glances and looking at Alfaku.
Alfaku said excitedly.
“Fair enough, let’s finalize this deal.”
“Lord Alfaku, when you pay the Energy Crystals, could you possibly include a few more Level 5 purple Energy Crystals?”
Su Ming said with a smile.
“No problem, I still have five left, I’ll give you three, and save two for our Legion Commander.”
Alfaku agreed without any hesitation, very cheerfully.
“Thanks a lot, let toast to you.”
Su Ming picked up a bottle, filled a glass, and raised it.
“Haha, great! Let’s not stop until we’re drunk today.”
Alfaku heartily picked up his glass.
“Right, not stopping until drunk.”
Su Ming also went all out, and they clinked glasses, downing them in one go!
…
——————————-
Early next morning.
Su Ming lay asleep in bed.
Knock, knock!
A knocking sound ca from the door.
Su Ming groggily opened his eyes, got out of bed, and opened the door.
“Boss, you’re still not up? It’s almost noon now.”
Rhein said with a grin.
Su Ming rubbed his temples, his head aching a bit as he asked.
“Drank too much yesterday, is there sothing going on?”
“Not really, just that Novlin sent over the 200 billion Energy Crystals, do you want to take a look?”
Rhein said to Su Ming.
Hearing this, Su Ming’s groggy head imdiately cleared up, and he said.
“I’ll go take a look and say goodbye to Novlin and the others.”
“Boss, are we setting off?”
Rhein asked Su Ming.
“That’s right, ti waits for no one, let’s find the treasure quickly and put our minds at ease sooner!”
“Then I’ll go notify Ankaga and the others.”
“Alright!”
Su Ming turned back to his room to freshen up.
…
Not long after, Su Ming hurried to the cargo hold and saw rows of crates filled with Energy Crystals.
The quantity was more than he expected; it looked like Alfaku had calculated at the lowest price, the weight was substantial!
“Lord Su Ming.”
Upon seeing Su Ming, Novlin walked over and respectfully greeted him.
“Novlin, you don’t have to call Lord, just call Su Ming. Also, thank you for making the special trip.”
“Su Ming, don’t ntion it, it’s what I’m supposed to do.”
“Alright then, we’re leaving soon.”
Su Ming then bade farewell to Novlin.
Novlin was taken aback by this, and then asked.
“Leaving so soon? Not staying a few more days?”
“No, I still have tasks to complete, it’s already been delayed for a while.”
Su Ming replied apologetically.
“Alright.”
Novlin replied sowhat reluctantly.
“Also, there’s sothing I want to discuss with you.”
Su Ming said seriously.
“Go ahead.”
Seeing Su Ming so serious, Novlin responded promptly.
“It’s like this, the Crimson Country of the Danube Star Sea is supported by , and the new Crimson Queen, Lady Hai Lan, has a good relationship with . If your Holy Army is willing, I’d like to invite you to live in the Crimson Country; it’s definitely better than staying in the Dark Forest.”
Su Ming proposed to Novlin.
Although the Holy Army had a mixed crowd, once reorganized and ard, they were definitely no less than a regular army.
Bear in mind they fought evenly with the Imperial Army even with inferior weapons.
Thus, Su Ming really wanted to bring them to the Crimson Country and integrate them into his forces.
Upon hearing Su Ming’s words, Novlin fell silent.
Su Ming didn’t rush him, silently waiting for Novlin’s response.
After a long while, Novlin looked up at Su Ming, eyes firm as he said.
“Su Ming, thank you for your kindness. But we can’t leave this place; too many of our compatriots are here, and if we leave, they will have no hope but to live in the darkness.”
“Sigh, I understand.”
Su Ming replied with a slight sigh.
“But Su Ming, if one day we’re truly without hope or can’t survive anymore, can we co to you then?”
Novlin hesitated for a mont before asking.
“You’re welco anyti, no matter the situation.”
Su Ming replied readily.
“Thank you.”
Novlin bowed deeply to Su Ming.
“No need to be so polite.”
Su Ming reached out to help Novlin and shook his head in response.
“Alright, I’m leaving now. Su Ming, be careful on your journey. If you have a chance, co find us, we’ll definitely give you a warm welco.”
Novlin sincerely said to Su Ming.
“Okay, and also, could you please say goodbye to Alfaku for .”
“No problem.”
“Goodbye then, I wish you all good luck.”
Su Ming said goodbye to Novlin.
“Goodbye.”
Novlin couldn’t help but glance at Su Ming once more before turning to walk towards her cha.
Standing in place, Su Ming watched Novlin board her cha, and after she and her crew left, he let out a slight breath before turning to walk toward the central control room.
…
In the central control room of the Wind Moving.
Timi was directing Li nghan and others to conduct a self-check of the ship’s status in preparation for departure.
Rhein and the others were gathered together, chatting and laughing.
At that mont, Su Ming walked in.
“Boss, you’re here.”
Rhein and the others saw Su Ming and greeted him with smiles.
“What are you guys chatting about that’s making you so happy?”
Su Ming curiously asked.
“We were talking about the gains this ti. Even the third-ranked Black Shark interstellar pirates were so rich. The top two must be even richer, should we find an opportunity to take them down too?”
Rhein and the others rubbed their hands together as they spoke.
“It’s not that easy. We were able to take down the Black Shark interstellar pirates so easily this ti mainly due to surprise and picking up the leftovers, as they were embroiled in a fierce battle with the Holy Army. And the top two interstellar pirate groups are certainly stronger, possibly backed by powerful forces behind the scenes.”
Su Ming said as he walked over and sat down in the command chair.
“True.”
Rhein and the others scratched their heads in response upon hearing this.
Su Ming suddenly rembered sothing and turned to Rhein.
“Rhein, I have sothing for you.”
“What is it?”
Rhein looked at Su Ming with curiosity.
“I’m giving you that Fake V Generation cha·Frenzy Shadow.”
Su Ming said with a smile.
He thought for a mont; the Fake V Generation cha·Frenzy Shadow wasn’t useful to him and didn’t have great performance!
But it’s still a Fake V Generation cha, and giving it to Rhein would significantly boost their combat power.
Upon hearing Su Ming’s words, Rhein exclaid joyfully.
“Boss, really?”
“Of course.”
Su Ming replied, slightly annoyed.
“Thanks, boss.”
Rhein was so excited he almost jumped up.
Ankaga and others were equally envious, as Rhein was about to beco the first-ever school-level officer to operate a Fake V Generation cha!
“Don’t get excited too soon, you’ll have to fix it yourself.”
Su Ming laughed as he spoke.
Rhein suddenly felt like he’d been doused with cold water, his whole deanor deflated as he said with a bitter face.
“Boss, with my salary, how can I afford to fix it?”
“Haha, it’s okay, gradually repair it. If you really can’t afford it, borrow so from . Wouldn’t I lend it to you?”
Su Ming joked to Rhein.
“Uh, I’ll try and save up so money first.”
Rhein quickly shook his head in response.
“Alright, suit yourself! Oh, I wanted to let you know that I took the original gun from the Frenzy Shadow cha and replaced it with two Plasma Light Blades for you.”
Su Ming suddenly rembered and reminded Rhein.
“No worries, the Light Blades suit better; I’m not good with gun-type weapons anyway.”
Rhein didn’t mind.
“That’s good.”
Su Ming nodded in agreent.
At that mont, Timi ca over and respectfully greeted him.
“Commander Su Ming, everything is ready.”
“Great, let’s set off!”
Su Ming waved his hand, directly giving the order.
“Yes!”
Timi imdiately responded.
