Destiny Mission of game 'Star Ring'-Chapter 1413 - 1106: High-Stakes Gamble (Extra for Silver Leader Bing Shan Mu Xue) (4th Update)
Not long after, Qian Chengxue pushed Su Mo to the entrance of the administrative building in the Second Ring.
The entire administrative building was extremely majestic; the whole structure was three stories high, with each floor towering several hundred meters.
The entire body was made of special crystal glass.
The guards at the entrance were all wearing V-generation Mechanical Armor and were also equipped with two pseudo V-generation pure mechanical standard mechas, Ghost Shadows, for guarding.
As Su Mo and Qian Chengxue approached, they underwent a full-body scan, and corresponding data appeared in the guards’ eyes.
The guards just glanced at Su Mo briefly and didn’t bother him further.
Thus, Qian Chengxue pushed Su Mo inside smoothly; along the way, they saw many people coming in and out of the administrative hall.
But compared to the tidal crowd of the Third Ring, the flow of people here was negligible.
Soon, Qian Chengxue pushed Su Mo into the hall and immediately saw a huge holographic rolling screen, displaying various tasks.
Qian Chengxue merely glanced at it casually and said in surprise, "So many tasks, and the rewards seem much better, much more than those in the Third Ring. Besides, they are all in waiting status."
"Hmm, if I’m not mistaken, this should be additional welfare. Otherwise, why would so many people be scrambling to buy houses here? There must be privileges."
Su Mo thought for a moment and said.
"That’s true. Where are we headed next?"
Qian Chengxue asked.
"To that corner window."
Su Mo looked around and said in a low voice.
"Okay!"
Qian Chengxue pushed Su Mo over.
Inside the window was a very pretty lady handling business. When she saw Su Mo and them approaching, she asked very politely.
"Hello, sir, I am the staff member, Xiao Kui. How may I assist you?"
"I want to exchange something."
Su Mo replied directly.
"Please hold on."
Xiao Kui responded efficiently while quickly entering commands.
Soon, a holographic image frame popped up in front of Su Mo, and he raised his hand to operate it.
He first entered the words Pala Fruit, then took a deep breath and bravely clicked search.
Su Mo quietly prayed, hoping that Star Ring City stocked this item and that the price wasn’t exorbitant.
Soon, a prompt popped up.
"This item is out of stock!"
Seeing this prompt, Su Mo’s eyelid twitched fiercely, and his heart skipped a beat.
"Damn, Xiao Shi, what a bother!"
"Indeed, it’s troubling. I didn’t expect Star Ring City to not have it either. However, from the words ’out of stock,’ the Pala Fruit seems to truly exist."
Fake Owner, the Swallower, replied, seeming to find it very troublesome.
"What’s the use of existing? Where are we supposed to find a Pala Fruit for the old man now?"
Su Mo felt a headache.
"Think of another way; there’s no use in rushing."
Fake Owner, the Swallower, responded with great composure.
"Su Mo? What’s wrong?"
Standing behind Su Mo, Qian Chengxue noticed his unpleasant expression and asked with concern.
"Nothing, I just wanted to exchange something, but it’s not available."
Su Mo suppressed his somewhat panicked heart. The absence of the Pala Fruit was more than just a simple incomplete task.
The old man might really die; if he truly dies, it would be a major issue.
"Don’t worry. How about asking when they will have it in stock again?" 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
Qian Chengxue quickly suggested to Su Mo.
After listening, Su Mo raised his head and asked Xiao Kui, "Hello, I would like to know when the Pala Fruit will be back in stock?"
"I’m sorry, sir, this is an item of the highest level. We really don’t know when it will be available."
Xiao Kui glanced at the item Su Mo wanted to exchange and replied with a face full of surprise.
After hearing this, Su Mo fell into deep thought, his expression constantly changing.
After a long time, Su Mo raised his hand to search again, and this time a redemption frame quickly popped up!
"Second Ring Land Designated Exchange Voucher!"
Su Mo clicked it, and a series of lists appeared, all of them official lands for sale in the Second Ring of Star Ring City.
Each parcel had a different price.
Su Mo quickly found the plot he had seen before, which required 10 million points.
Seeing this price, Su Mo’s eyelid couldn’t help but twitch, it was insanely expensive.
However, Su Mo also noticed that this plot of land had notes.
This land is commercial land; the highest allowable construction is a 23-story building, equipped with trade, order-taking, and other privileges.
Su Mo clicked on other commercial lands and found that the floor limitations varied, generally requiring under ten floors.
Moreover, the terms that came with this plot of land were exceptionally good, no wonder it was targeted.
Without thinking, Su Mo proceeded to operate it.
"Congratulations, Lord Duke Su Mo, successfully redeemed plot number V2102, consuming 10 million points, with 90 million points remaining."
Qian Chengxue watched Su Mo’s operation and asked in shock, "Su Mo, how do you have so much contribution?"
"Not bad, not that much, no need to be so shocked. By the way, how much contribution do you have?"
Su Mo was also slightly surprised by Qian Chengxue’s reaction.
"5 million points, and that’s because I killed quite a few V-type enemies and intercepted Vice Clan Chief Mogasi."
Qian Chengxue explained to Su Mo.
"I see, let’s not talk about that. That place will be our haven from now on."
Su Mo nodded, it seemed he was being favored.
The girl with the ponytail at the work window was speechless for a while as she watched Su Mo redeem the land plot, he was so wealthy.
However, she still didn’t know Su Mo’s thoughts, otherwise, she would be even more shocked.
Su Mo was now considering whether to exchange all his contributions for Second Ring land. If old fox Nan Qi’s words were correct, the land might appreciate significantly and could be freely traded.
Even if it only doubled, wouldn’t his assets double as well?
Thinking of this, Su Mo’s eyelid couldn’t help but twitch.
He quickly checked how many commercial lands with privileges were left.
He didn’t know until he checked, and when he did, he was shocked to find only five plots left, all about to be auctioned off. However, if redeemed with merit, the auction process could be skipped, and it could be bought directly.
This was clear evidence of how generous Star Ring City was to those who had made contributions.
"To buy or not to buy?"
Su Mo was a bit hesitant. All five plots combined were nearly a million square meters, requiring nearly 60 million merit points, which was extraordinarily expensive.
But the temptation was incredibly strong.
Clearly, this was a high-stakes gamble; if it fell through, he could be trapped.
Ultimately, Su Mo made up his mind.
"Buy!"

Star Ring City · Fourth Ring Area.
An inconspicuous building was nestled within a crowded slum.
The plain and ordinary door slowly opened, and a steady figure walked in.
The lobby’s decor was very luxurious, with chandeliers made of pure natural rare gems that gave off a natural glow, and the lighting was very soft.
