Destiny Mission of game 'Star Ring'-Chapter 1507 - 1194: Feeling Stifled

"Don’t rush, I said five hundred billion is the price for Star Ring City. You can’t get that for five hundred billion here, it needs to be at least three times more."

Nan Qi accurately stated the market price.

"One thousand five hundred billion, aren’t you ripping me off?"

Su Mo deliberately replied as a probe.

"Brother, you don’t understand. Yes, these things aren’t worth that price, but this is the frontline supply site for Ceres. Here, it’s worth that much, and even if you have money, you can’t buy it, I’m not lying to you."

Nan Qi said to Su Mo with confidence.

"Alright, one thousand five hundred billion is one thousand five hundred billion, I’ll give it to you."

Su Mo understood that Nan Qi was telling the truth.

However, Augustus was feeling troubled; one thousand five hundred billion Star Coins is no small amount, and he really couldn’t afford it at the moment.

But Augustus had seen big waves, and he didn’t immediately say he couldn’t afford it because that would embarrass Su Mo.

But the next scene made Augustus’ mouth drop open in surprise.

Commander Nan Qi, smiling widely, reassured Su Mo, saying, "Brother, don’t worry, we’re buddies. Can a big brother not have your back? It’s just 1500 billion worth of supplies, I’ll gift them to you!"

Su Mo was also very surprised to hear this; is this guy that generous?

"Are you sure?"

"Look at what you’re saying, it’s a small matter."

Nan Qi didn’t mind at all; it’s just 500 billion worth of goods, he’ll cover it up in the accounts later, anyway he doesn’t have to pay for it.

Last time when the Star Gate opened, the supplies Star Ring City shipped over, the amount was astronomical.

"Alright, you’re a decent guy."

Su Mo nodded in response.

Augustus’ mind was somewhat dazed now, feeling as if the world was not quite real.

At this moment, Su Mo suddenly remembered something and earnestly said to Commander Nan Qi, "Bro, I have one more favor to ask, I hope you can help me out."

Seeing Su Mo so earnest, Nan Qi put away his smile and said, "Tell me."

"I want to buy a batch of 10 trillion Star Coins worth of Energy Ore, can you help me convert it? The price can’t be too high."

Su Mo planned to spend the money at hand to fully charge the Creator · Swallower, who knows what they will encounter in the dark side of space; holding onto money is the dumbest thing to do.

Augustus was stunned by the side; 10 trillion Star Coins?

Is Su Mo so rich?

Nan Qi patted Su Mo’s shoulder and said to him, "Brother, since you asked, rest assured this matter is left to me. No matter how difficult, I’ll handle it beautifully for you. Just relax, the Energy Ore I convert for you won’t be priced higher than the Star Ring City’s selling price, and the quantity will definitely not be less, with guaranteed quality." 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

"Alright, thank you."

Su Mo nodded in response.

"Tomorrow, I’ll have someone deliver it to you."

Nan Qi said without hesitation.

"Alright, I won’t disturb you any longer, I’ll be leaving now!"

Su Mo nodded and replied.

"Take care, brother!"

Nan Qi did not try to retain Su Mo.

Thus Su Mo and Augustus returned to the ship.

Nan Qi watched Su Mo leave, and at this point, the artificial intelligence · Black and White Apostle appeared beside Nan Qi, opening a reminder.

"Master Nan Qi, giving and converting supplies privately is against regulations."

"Then report it as war damage and destruction."

Nan Qi stretched lazily and said indifferently.

In fact, from the moment Su Mo asked Nan Qi to help find the Third Army Commander, Nan Qi started investigating what Su Mo was up to; he knew Su Mo was heading to the backside of Ceres.

Such a dangerous place, chances are there’s no return. His thinking is simple, to help if he can.

If Su Mo can come back alive, it proves he bet right.

If he doesn’t, it would still count as repaying a past favor.

...

Swift Wind.

Augustus gradually recovered, and he said to Su Mo.

"Su Mo, are you actually that familiar with Commander Nan Qi?"

"We met early on, hit it off immediately, and he insisted on becoming sworn brothers."

Su Mo replied relaxedly.

After listening, Augustus breathed a long sigh, and praised Su Mo, "Impressive, very impressive."

"It’s all minor stuff. By the way, Master Augustus, I’ll send you back. After you get that equipment, just have someone deliver it directly to me."

Su Mo instructed Augustus.

"Alright, no problem, I’ll handle this. By the way, take this 500 billion Star Coin."

Augustus then took out an anonymous cash check and handed it to Su Mo.

"No, no, how can I take your money?"

Su Mo hurriedly refused.

"Accept it, the mission was canceled, you won’t get the reward. Can’t have you using your face to get supplies now, take it! It’s also a token of appreciation from all the officers and soldiers’ families at Freedom Fortress."

Augustus was quite firm, directly stuffing it into Su Mo’s hand.

Su Mo smiled wryly and had no choice but to accept it.

"Alright, I won’t be polite then."

Augustus reached out to pat Su Mo’s shoulder, and said somewhat emotionally, "Our generation is really getting old, the future is up to you guys."

Listening to Augustus, Su Mo was also a bit moved.

...

Next day, Nan Qi indeed promptly delivered all the supplies and Energy Stones aboard the Star Destroyer · Grey Fin.

Su Mo placed all those Energy Stones in a separate supply storage.

He also cleared all the soldiers from that storage, and turned off the monitoring equipment there.

"Scan it, make sure no one’s spying,"

Su Mo said uneasily to Creator · Swallower.

"Relax, I scanned over, all electronic devices are turned off, and no one is near,"

Creator · Swallower replied deeply.

After listening, Su Mo immediately walked to a supply mechanical box and opened it!

Many blocks of unprocessed Level 4 Energy Stones, emitting a purple glow, were exposed.

"The quality is good."

Su Mo was somewhat amazed, initially thinking Nan Qi would give him goods of slightly lower quality.

"Not only is the quality good, I scanned over, the quantity of goods here is also ample, didn’t expect Nan Qi to respect you this much."

Creator · Swallower replied excitedly.

"How much are these goods worth?"

Su Mo’s eyes lit up and he asked instinctively.

"At least a premium of sixty percent, besides it’s impossible to buy such good goods even with money at the frontline, enough talk."

Creator · Swallower then separated from Su Mo’s body.

It floated upwards, its terrifying form shaking wildly like a heart, then fiercely collided, extending numerous tentacles.

These tentacles penetrated boxes one by one, starting to crazily absorb the energy within.

Within half an hour, Creator · Swallower absorbed all the Energy Stones completely.

Then it shrunk its body, floated towards Su Mo, and re-entered his body.

Su Mo couldn’t wait to ask.

"How much energy was charged?"

"Charged to 15.2%"

Creator · Swallower replied contentedly.

Hearing this, Su Mo’s muscles on his face twitched, he nearly jumped up.

"Just charged five percent? This cost 10 trillion Star Coins? Actually, these Energy Stones are worth more than 10 trillion? Only increased so little, and yours needs more for later, this is too terrifying!"

"Why the fuss, it’s not me that’s terrifying, rather the maintenance cost of sixth-generation Mecha and Light Computer is just this high. Plainly, you’re just too poor."

Creator · Swallower replied with an accustomed demeanor.

"You, I..."

Su Mo was also heartbroken instantly.

"But you don’t need to feel too inferior, supporting a sixth-generation machine is immensely costly, not for ordinary people. Even Star Ring City hasn’t maintained many, that’s why Icaroya implemented personal maintenance, after all, if all weapons maintenance falls on Star Ring City, with everyone randomly using weapons, in a few days Star Ring City would go bankrupt."

Creator · Swallower saw Su Mo looked deeply affected and changed its tone to comfort him.

"Sigh~"

Su Mo also sighed helplessly after hearing this.

At this moment, his bracelet vibrated, receiving a message.

Su Mo glanced down, took a deep breath, and said, "No more chit-chat, the device has been delivered, we can prepare to set sail."

"Okay."

Creator · Swallower replied deeply.
