Destiny Mission of game 'Star Ring'-Chapter 1497 - 1184: An Unexpected Turn (Silver Alliance Leader AndyBear Bonus - ) (5 Updates)
Upon hearing Su Mo’s inquiry, the NCOs present all revealed a trace of embarrassment, surprisingly not informing Su Mo immediately.
Su Mo also noticed something was off. This group likely realized he wasn’t an NCO of the Third Legion and thought Gris had caused some more trouble.
So he said, "I have official business with him, not looking for trouble."
Hearing Su Mo’s words, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief and then reported.
"Sir, he’s at the Money Speed casino in the front."
"Alright, thank you."
Su Mo didn’t waste any words and headed toward the casino in front.
Su Mo soon arrived at Money Speed casino, which was quite large and extremely noisy inside.
As soon as Su Mo entered, a heavily made-up woman brightened her eyes and approached him attentively.
"Oh my~ sir, are you here to play too? Do you need to exchange chips?"
She hadn’t seen such a big spender in a long time.
Officials of Star Ring City, the higher the position, the wealthier they definitely became.
No exceptions!
Because as long as you’re in a high position, it’s hard not to get fat, as countless people will frantically send you money.
"I’m not here to gamble, I’m here to find Captain Gris, where is he?"
Su Mo asked directly.
Upon hearing Su Mo’s words, the woman’s smile froze on her face, momentarily not knowing how to respond.
Su Mo sighed slightly and then said to her, "I’m not here to bother him, it’s official business."
"Oh, I see, come with me."
The woman suddenly understood and quickly said.
Su Mo then followed her inside, and soon she led Su Mo to the interior of the casino. She raised her head and pointed to a gambling table in front of them.
"Do you see the person in the captain’s uniform over there? That’s Gris."
Su Mo looked carefully and saw a shifty-eyed guy, wearing his military uniform sloppily, resting one foot on the table, and occasionally slapping the table hard, shouting excitedly.
"Roll it!"
"Four, five, six, big! Haha, I win!"
...
Su Mo squinted and walked toward Gris.
The gamblers along the way saw Su Mo and quickly made way.
At this time, the gamblers at the table, who were originally excited about betting, also instinctively made way when they saw Su Mo approaching.
A colonel is such a high-level officer, especially a stranger, everyone instinctively avoids.
Gris, who was collecting chips, naturally noticed something wrong and vigilantly turned his head to look.
By this time, Su Mo had already reached him, directly taking out the recruitment order and said to Gris.
"Captain Gris, I’m Colonel Su Mo. This is a recruitment order issued by the Third Army Commander. I need to recruit you to help me with something."
"Uh, this..."
Gris was taken aback at first, then replied with a hesitant expression.
Su Mo spoke at this moment, "Don’t worry, I won’t ask you to work for nothing. Once the task is completed, I will pay you a generous extra reward."
"Yes, sir, it’s my honor!"
Excited at the mention of a generous reward, Gris immediately saluted Su Mo respectfully.
"Alright, then come with me."
Su Mo nodded and replied.
"Sir, will this task take a long time?"
Gris quickly asked Su Mo.
"Indeed, it will take some time."
Su Mo didn’t hide it, as whether the search and rescue went smoothly, he couldn’t say for sure.
"Sir, since it’s a sudden occurrence, can I go back to pack some specialized equipment and say goodbye to my family? Can we depart tomorrow instead? It shouldn’t be a problem to wait a bit longer, right?"
Gris requested.
"Alright, then be at Shipyard No. 2 by 8 a.m. tomorrow, and I’ll wait for you there."
Su Mo nodded, as he was seeking the other’s help and couldn’t be too harsh; otherwise, if the other party slacked off, it would be troublesome.
"No problem, I’ll arrive on time."
Gris promised Su Mo solemnly.
"Good!"
Su Mo responded immediately.
Then Gris hurriedly left.
Su Mo sighed slightly in relief, as the matter here was finally settled, and they could depart tomorrow.
He was somewhat impatient, as every minute of delay meant more danger for Li Ruiqi, but hurrying might not achieve the desired results, some things couldn’t be rushed.
...
At 8 a.m. the next day, Su Mo was waiting at Shipyard No. 2.
He looked at his digital watch continuously; it was already 8:30, and the other party was half an hour late.
Su Mo frowned tightly, finding this a bit untimely.
However, Su Mo continued to wait patiently.
Time passed quickly bit by bit.
Unknowingly, it was already 11:30, and there wasn’t even a shadow.
The Creator·Swallower said to Su Mo in a low voice.
"Looks like you were played."
"Well, he dares to toy with me."
Su Mo was both angry and amused; he didn’t expect the other party to openly defy the recruitment order.
"So, what do you plan to do now?"
The Creator·Swallower asked in a low voice.
"What else can I do? Find him. As long as he’s still hiding here, it shouldn’t be hard to find him."
Su Mo said in a deep voice.
The Creator·Swallower didn’t say more, returning to calm.
Then Su Mo went directly to find the officer in charge of this logistics base.
In a spacious office, a man in a lieutenant colonel’s uniform with graying sideburns was leisurely drinking tea.
At this time, an NCO hurried in and said to him.
"Commander Ni Teng, something’s happened."
"What could happen?"
"Colonel Su Mo from the First Legion wants to see you."
"What trouble did you get into again?"
"It wasn’t us; it’s like this, Colonel Su Mo came to find Gris. I heard he’s here to recruit him and has a recruitment order from the Legion Leader."
"Then just find Gris. Why come to me?"
"The problem is Gris slipped away!"
"Oh, that guy ran again!"
Ni Teng’s face darkened.
"And he even stood up Commander Su Mo and ran, now Commander Su Mo seems quite angry."
"Really impressive, that Gris. Where did he run off to this time?"
"Where else could he go? Whenever something happens, he definitely runs over there."
"Alright then, let Colonel Su Mo in."
Ni Teng was also a bit annoyed. Normally, he wouldn’t deal with such matters, but the other party had a recruitment order from the Legion Leader, so he couldn’t just brush it off.
Before long, Su Mo walked in.
"Hello, sir."
Ni Teng responded very courteously.
"Hello, I need your help with something. I need to recruit Captain Gris for a mission. But he seems unwilling, as he’s gone missing. Can you help find him?"
Su Mo asked directly.
"Is there such a thing? I’ll have my people look into it for you immediately."
Ni Teng didn’t waste any words.
Then Ni Teng raised his left hand, inputting a string of commands to his people below.
It wasn’t long before a piece of information popped up.
Ni Teng looked very angry as he cursed.
"This is too much; that kid actually slipped away."
"Slipped away? You mean he left this logistics base?" 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖
Su Mo’s mouth twitched as he asked.
"That’s right."
"Then where did he go?"
"Well..."
Ni Teng hesitated a bit.
"Please, you must tell me. My recruitment of Gris is with the approval of Lady Goli and the Third Army Commander."
Su Mo explained.
Hearing Su Mo’s words, Ni Teng’s expression changed slightly, then he said, "That kid is likely to have run to Black Worg."
"Alright, thank you."
Su Mo thanked and then turned to leave.
