Destiny Mission of game 'Star Ring'-Chapter 1381 - 1074: Misunderstanding (Second Update)
Su Mo controlled the Fierce Sun Wings and stood beside it, gazing at the massive underground city made of yellow earth, looking pensive, with no significant change in expression.
Of course, he didn’t speak up either.
A few hours later, Shiris and others piloted their mechas back.
"Lord Spade."
"What’s the situation?"
Spade and others quickly asked.
Shiris hesitated for a moment and reported to Spade and the others.
"We found many of our sacrificed personnel’s bodies and mechanical wreckage in that earth city ahead. If we’re not mistaken, that earth city is the Golden City."
Hearing Shiris’s words, Spade and the other commanders looked as grim as could be.
Luo Meng couldn’t help but ask immediately, "What about the things inside? Those gems and precious ores?"
"We did a brief inspection, and inside there are just some waste rocks and yellow earth, not much of value."
Shiris shook his head and responded.
This statement completely shattered Luo Meng and the others’ fantasies.
Luo Meng and the others were momentarily unsteady on their feet, unable to accept it, they said.
"How could this happen."
"It’s impossible, there must be a mistake somewhere."
Many present did not believe it.
"Everyone, don’t be too upset. Actually, you probably guessed something in your hearts, but you deceive yourselves into not accepting it. Let me ask, what kind of ruins can accumulate so many valuable things? The wealth we saw is not just a little; just the Eternal Metal alone, how much is there? It’s not calculated by the gram, it’s calculated by tens of thousands of tons. Do you think it’s realistic? If that wealth is real, wouldn’t we be richer than Star Ring City? If this were truly the Main Temple of the Negative God, then maybe there’s that much wealth, but this isn’t the Main Temple of the Negative God."
Su Mo sighed to comfort them.
The crowd heard Su Mo’s words and grew even more despondent, feeling unspeakably uncomfortable.
"Don’t be too upset, everyone. Although this site has no discoveries, it at least concluded satisfactorily."
Seeing the crowd so dejected, Su Mo quickly spoke to comfort them.
Spade sighed and told Su Mo, "Su Mo, you don’t know how much effort we put into this site, how much energy and time we wasted, and so many people sacrificed themselves. And in the end, we came back empty-handed. To put it bluntly, this is a significant strategic setback."
"I understand, but since things are as they are, we can only look forward."
Su Mo sighed in response. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎
"That’s all we can do. By the way, why are you on Ceres? Did you come alone?"
Spade suddenly remembered something and asked in confusion.
"Well, I’m not alone. I came with the main force, but there was a small accident on the way, and I got separated from the main force. It seems like I arrived at Ceres first."
Su Mo was slightly taken aback and quickly explained.
"What about the main force?"
Spade and the others were shocked and quickly asked. If even the reinforcements had trouble, then it would truly be a disaster.
"Don’t worry about it; the main force is with the Star Ring City troops, so it should be fine."
Su Mo replied without much confidence.
"That’ll do."
Spade and others breathed a slight sigh of relief.
"What do you plan to do next?"
Su Mo pondered for a moment and seriously asked Spade.
"Clean the battlefield; apart from seeing if we can find some loot, we should also tidy up the bodies of our fallen brothers. If there’s no particular discovery, prepare to return to Thunder Base."
Spade planned and arranged.
"All right."
Su Mo nodded in agreement.
...
Ten days later, Su Mo followed Spade and others all the way west.
In the distant horizon, they saw a very peculiar mountain, the entire mountain was flashing with lightning and thunder, with dark clouds overhead.
Any monster approaching was eliminated.
"What is this?"
Su Mo asked on the communication channel.
"That massive mountain is the Thunder Base of Star Ring City, only its surface has been disguised. Normally, it’s not visible. Also, Thunder Base uses a special climate device, making its area have extremely harsh weather, constantly generating large thunderstorms to drive away monsters."
Wang Hai explained to Su Mo.
"The technology is impressive."
Su Mo couldn’t help but give a thumbs-up, noting that one major challenge of long-term stationing on Negative God Star was constant monster attacks.
No matter how strong your defense power is, it will be tough over time because these monster attacks are like water wearing down stone.
But this climate device perfectly resolves this situation.
As soon as Su Mo and his team approached a certain range of Thunder Base.
They immediately encountered a series of IV Generation Pure Mechanical Mecha·Night Guards, each bearing the Star Ring City’s emblem on its chest.
They were presumably the outer guards of Thunder Base.
They intercepted everyone.
The leading captain stepped out and arrogantly said, "I am Major Ke An, captain of the outer defense of Thunder Base. All of you must undergo dual identity and body checks. Only those who pass the checks may enter Thunder Base. Let me make it clear, anyone who does not qualify or refuses to cooperate has no right to enter Thunder Base, and no objections will be accepted."
Hearing this, Spade immediately ordered everyone on the communication channel.
"Everyone cooperate, no causing trouble."
"Yes."
Everyone present responded.
"Seems strict."
Su Mo, controlling Fierce Sun Wings, walked up to prepare for the inspection.
Major Ke An saw the Fierce Sun Wings, instantly straightened the mecha, bowed to Su Mo, and greeted excitedly.
"Lord Rogel! I will inform Commander Baryk of Thunder Garrison immediately."
Su Mo was stunned, these guys must have made a mistake?
"Stop, no need to notify."
Su Mo’s head was aching.
Wang Hai and others couldn’t help but laugh.
"Lord Rogel? Is there a problem?"
Major Ke An asked, puzzled.
"Forget it, just take us for the check-up quickly. We need to enter and rest; you don’t need to worry about the rest."
Su Mo replied, feeling his head hurt immensely.
"Yes, I’ll arrange it for you."
Although Major Ke An didn’t understand, he complied unconditionally.
Not long afterward, Su Mo and others entered the outer rest area of Thunder Fortress, where a specialized inspection team was located.
Of course, there was also a formidable combat mecha squad stationed here.
Twenty-four Fake V Generation Pure Mechanical Mecha·Ghost shadows stood in every corner, ready to unleash a volley at anyone making dangerous moves.
However, when everyone saw the Fierce Sun Wings, they immediately couldn’t remain calm.
Each one saluted.
