Destiny Mission of game 'Star Ring'-Chapter 1522 - 1206: Cleanup (First Update)

For a moment, the atmosphere at the scene was somewhat stagnant, and everyone remained silent.

Su Mo hesitated for a moment on the spot, then said, "Let’s first clear all the monsters inside the Freedom Fortress. Once it’s cleaned up here, we can start discussing future plans."

"Okay."

Li Ruiqi nodded in agreement.

...

Two days later, Su Mo and the others successfully cleared all the Blade Mutants inside the Freedom Fortress at a small cost.

The corpses of all the Blade Mutants were laid out on the ground.

Li Ruiqi and the others were identifying them one by one.

"Are you sure none are missing?"

Su Mo cautiously asked.

The artificial intelligence Black Cosmos said, "There should be no problem. Although we were driven underground before, we have been using limited equipment to monitor and count these Blade Mutants. A total of 121 were left, there are 120 here, and together with the one you mentioned you brought back to the ship, it makes exactly 122, all killed."

"Okay, the aftermath is dealt with, let’s discuss the rescue operation."

Su Mo said to Li Ruiqi, Jialan, and others.

For a moment, everyone present showed hopeful eyes, their expressions very excited, and some even had wet eyes.

Knowing that so many companions were captured and they could only barely survive without being able to rescue them was very painful inside, and now there is finally hope.

"Okay."

Li Ruiqi and the others responded excitedly.

"First, I want to ask, how much do you know about these Blade Mutants?"

Su Mo asked very rationally.

The artificial intelligence Black Cosmos said to Su Mo, "We have not been idle while hiding, and we’ve conducted dissections and research on a large number of Blade Mutants’ bodies. These creatures are extremely terrifying; they were fundamentally not evolved naturally but through gene theft evolution."

"Tell me about it."

Su Mo was also somewhat curious.

"The genes inside these monsters are very mixed, there are gene sequences of various species. We found fragments of Alien, human, Alien, Insect Race, Alien Species, etc. It’s obvious that these gene sequence fragments are stolen. According to our research, they likely eat to provide new genes to the next generation while pregnant. So the more they eat, the better they eat, the more abnormal the next generation is."

The artificial intelligence Black Cosmos explained.

Su Mo furrowed his eyebrows upon hearing this.

"These wretched creatures are not ordinary pests. Where have our people been captured?"

"Probably captured and confined in their nest. These monsters have high intelligence with a strong sense of captive breeding, and our people are treated as food."

Li Ruiqi sighed and said.

"Do you know the specific location?"

"Yes, our underground city actually has several hidden passages leading outside. We’ve sent quite a few people to reconnaissance, suffered heavy losses, and confirmed their nest location. But the specific internal situation is unknown because those who got close died. Moreover, because we’ve sent reconnaissance multiple times, we indirectly alerted them, which is why there were still Blade Mutants left inside the Freedom Fortress."

Li Ruiqi said with infinite melancholy to Su Mo.

"I understand, you’ve already tried your best. Rest assured, if there’s even a slightest opportunity, I won’t give up on our companions."

Su Mo promised very solemnly.

Upon hearing this, Jialan and others excitedly said, "Su Mo, we’re with you!"

At this moment, Captain Karmen, standing by the side, spoke to Su Mo, "Commander Su Mo, these monsters are very strong in combat, your friends’ mechas are too poor in performance, leave it to us."

It’s not that Karmen looks down on Li Ruiqi and the others, but indeed their weapons are too poor.

The best weapon is just one or two IV Generation Mechas, even the number of Third Generation Mechanical Hunters is pitifully small, most are Second Generation Black Steel Mechas.

This is clearly rookie equipment; engaging in battle would be suicide.

Jialan and others smiled bitterly upon hearing this; they couldn’t help but look at Karmen and others’ mechas with envy, and many whispered.

"Their mechas are so advanced, many are IV Generation."

Karmen also heard the voices of discussion, suddenly feeling that he might have misspoken, and hurriedly said.

"Everyone, I mean no other intention, just that your mechas are slightly inferior. In fact, our mechas are not that great, nothing compared to Commander Su Mo’s."

"We understand."

Li Ruiqi replied with a bitter smile.

At this moment, Su Mo was somewhat touched and spoke to everyone, "Don’t mind, you’ve just missed several weapon upgrades. When you escape, everyone here will swap mechas and be elites, so don’t be disheartened."

"Okay, we understand."

Li Ruiqi and others responded.

"Back to the topic, draw for me the approximate location of the enemy nest, I’ll go reconnaissance alone."

Su Mo formally said to everyone.

"That’s not right."

Jialan was also taken aback and spoke instinctively.

Karmen standing by also hurriedly said, "Commander Su Mo, that’s inappropriate, if something happens to you, how would I explain to Master Salile?"

"You don’t need to worry, if I can’t even handle reconnaissance, bringing you along is futile. Moreover, if I don’t return, you might really have to consider survival by severing ties and escaping quickly."

Su Mo waved his hand and said to everyone.

"Su Mo is right, if he can’t handle reconnaissance with the V Generation Biological Mecha, there’s no point in us following."

The artificial intelligence Black Cosmos was very rational.

"Alright."

Jialan and others eventually returned to reason.

The artificial intelligence Black Cosmos then projected a virtual star map, drawn from the Freedom Fortress as the starting point.

The final destination was marked with a big cross.

"The nest is at this location, approximately 72,820,000 kilometers away from Freedom Fortress, a distance neither too far nor too close."

The artificial intelligence Black Cosmos introduced to Su Mo.

"Got it, I know."

Su Mo memorized the star map presented.

"One thing to remind you, those damned monsters have a habit of captive breeding. If you encounter monsters along the way, be careful, they might be pets."

Artificial intelligence Black Cosmos suddenly remembered something and reminded Su Mo.

"Got it."

Su Mo nodded.

...

Not long later, Su Mo alone piloted the V Generation Biological Mecha Light of Sin Abyss and departed from Freedom Fortress. Following the star map given by the artificial intelligence Black Cosmos, he slowly flew towards the distant starry sky.

Actually, for such a distance, if Su Mo pushed the mecha to its limit, he could reach it in no time.

But such behavior would be purely suicidal.
