Destiny Mission of game 'Star Ring'-Chapter 1446 - 1136: Atmosphere

On the other side, Su Mo followed the female officer to the back.

Here stood a building made of silver metal, with a checkpoint set up at its entrance.

Two Fake V Generation Pure Mechanical Mecha·Ghost Shadow stood guard.

The female officer led Su Mo inside, into the main hall, where officers were bustling everywhere.

Everyone wore a very serious expression.

Soon, the two arrived at the door of a room on the right side of the hall.

"Sir, you just need to report inside."

"Okay."

"Then I’ll take my leave now."

"Mm, thank you."

Su Mo nodded slightly in response.

Then Su Mo knocked on the door.

Knock, knock~

"Come in!"

A crisp voice responded.

Su Mo pushed open the door and went in. The room was filled with busy NCOs. He coughed and asked,

"Is this the place to report in?"

The NCOs present all stopped their work and looked up at Su Mo.

The leading, more experienced male officer looked at Su Mo in surprise and asked, "Are you here to report in?"

Understanding that the reporting for the Royal Order had long since ended.

"Yes."

Su Mo replied with certainty.

"Please wait a moment, I am Lieutenant Colonel Hepburnt. Allow me to verify your information."

Hepburn spoke very courteously.

"No problem."

Su Mo responded straightforwardly.

Hepburn picked up a device and conducted a full scan of Su Mo. Soon, the information popped up.

Looking at the information in front of him, his eyelid twitched violently, and he immediately saluted.

"Sir, please wait a moment, I will handle the procedures for you right away."

In an instant, the eyes of the other NCOs in the office became sharp, each sitting upright, staring straight ahead, diligently focused on their respective duties.

"Mm."

Su Mo let out a slight sigh of relief, it seemed like there was no problem now, finally sorted out.

Moments later, Su Mo filled out a large amount of relevant information, underwent a comprehensive scan, and declared his personal belongings, smoothly receiving his military uniform and a brand new Star Ring City officer identity card.

This identity card was made of special metal, and its texture was quite impressive.

After completing the necessary procedures for Su Mo, Hepburn respectfully said, "Sir, after you change clothes, exit and head right, there is a lounge there where you can wait."

"Okay."

Su Mo nodded.

Then Su Mo changed in the restroom and left.

Watching Su Mo’s departing figure, Hepburn couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

...

Soon enough, following Hepburn’s guidance, Su Mo arrived at the entrance of the lounge.

The soldiers guarding the door saluted upon seeing Su Mo.

"Sir."

Su Mo nodded slightly and walked in.

The entire lounge was decorated very solemnly and gave a sense of stability.

Inside the hall, newly inducted officers stood straight, gathering in small groups.

Su Mo glanced around and immediately saw many familiar faces.

Like Sith from the Galmotos Empire, Ge Yi from the Mist Country, among others, although there were far more unfamiliar faces.

"Su Mo!"

A surprised voice sounded at this moment.

Su Mo turned his head and saw Wang Hai, Shiris, and Rose not far away.

Su Mo was also delighted, moving towards them with a smile to greet them.

"Wang Hai, Rose, Shiris...."

"Su Mo, you joined the army too?"

Rose looked at the military uniform on Su Mo with great joy.

"Yes, I did."

Su Mo replied with a smile.

"That’s great, now we can fight side by side again."

Wang Hai said sincerely, placing his hand happily on Su Mo’s shoulder.

However, at this moment, a stern reprimanding voice rang out.

"What are you doing?"

Su Mo was startled and turned around.

There stood an officer with a formidable build, standing at a towering height of two meters eight, clad in heavy V-type Bio Armor, exuding a terrifying aura of slaughter.

"Officer Kory, may I ask what we did wrong?"

Wang Hai and the others quickly stood at attention and replied.

"Who allowed you to disregard military discipline, pat the officer, and joke around!"

Kory directly rebuked them angrily.

Wang Hai and the others were taken aback, only now noticing the insignia on Su Mo’s uniform.

Su Mo was bewildered, coughing lightly and said, "Actually, it’s nothing, we’re just...."

"No excuses, rules are rules. All officers of the Royal Order’s direct troops must unconditionally follow the regulations. And as an officer, you must lead by example!"

Kory showed no leniency towards Su Mo.

"Alright, I will take note."

Su Mo stiffened his expression and responded promptly without further argument.

He suddenly felt firsthand the strictness of the regulations here.

Kory turned and left.

Rose quietly said to Su Mo at this time, "Just now when I saw you, I was so overjoyed that I forgot. The First Legion of Star Ring City is not like the armies of other countries. The rules here are extremely strict, and rank means everything, sparing no room for personal affection."

"Mm, I can feel it, seems like I need to be extra cautious."

Su Mo replied quietly, slightly turning his body.

"But, Su Mo, you’ve done great, making it to Colonel. You know, we’re all just Captains, even Sith is only a Major. You’ll have to cover us in the future!"

Rose winked at Su Mo, whispering softly.

Su Mo responded somewhat awkwardly, "Why make it sound so formal, of course I’ll cover you, but does me covering you even help? Though my rank is slightly higher, I’ve just joined like you all."

"You probably don’t realize the weight of the Colonel position. That Officer Kory could make us tremble with his mere presence. But it’s different for you. He has to treat you equally. The mistake we just made, normally wouldn’t end with just a reprimand, even writing a review might be too light, not to mention harsher penalties. But because of you, he had no choice but to let it go."

Rose explained to Su Mo.

"This...."

Su Mo didn’t know what to say for a moment, though he knew what Rose said was likely true.

He recalled Hepburn’s reaction when processing his procedures and the reaction of the other officers in the office.

Everyone was on thin ice, afraid of making any mistakes.

Just then, a female officer entered the lounge and addressed everyone present.

"Everyone, please proceed to Hall 1 for the speech."

As soon as she finished speaking, all the officers on standby began heading to Hall 1 for the speech.

Along the way, everyone kept a straight face, without any laughter.

At most, there was a faint sound of exchanges.

Even Wang Hai and the others walking with Su Mo remained silent.

Su Mo felt a growing headache and said to the creator·Swallower, "Aren’t these rules a bit too strict?"

"You’ll get used to them gradually."

The creator·Swallower replied in a low voice.
