Chapter 1758 - 1406: Call for Help (Extra - for Silver Alliance Leader An Jingyuan) (4 Chapters Today)
Su Mo saw the activated hidden task, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he immediately realized, is this a comprehensive attack on the Eternal Sleep Clan?
At this moment, Su Mo’s heart was like a stormy wave, and in an instant, he understood many things that were previously unclear.
Why did the Lord of Icaroya hear about the attack on the front line and disregard the influence of negative energy fluctuations on the rearguard countries, forcibly mobilizing all elite forces to the front line.
It turns out that support was just a cover; everything was an illusion, this trick played out stealthily.
Moreover, the top-secret documents issued to them by the Lord of Icaroya were also beautifully executed.
Su Mo estimates that the secret documents everyone received were definitely mixed with truth and falsehood. Whoever opened them prematurely was suspicious, and opening them wouldn’t yield any useful information.
And the genius mechanic Yurika, who could decipher these secret messages, had already been arrested and imprisoned. The previous Royal Order selection was essentially a setup to capture him, ensuring the infallibility of the secret plan.
It’s simply too brilliant.
After understanding these things, Su Mo stopped hesitating, he turned his head towards Augustus, whose brows were tightly knitted.
"Did you receive the task as well?"
"Exactly, Star Ring City demands the Federation’s forces on Ceres to proceed to designated areas within the specified time and eliminate the Eternal Sleep Clan’s base."
Augustus said to Su Mo.
Su Mo inhaled deeply upon hearing this, Icaroya is serious this time.
At this moment, personnel from various nations inside Thunder Base and the forces from Star Ring City were all in motion, everyone dropping what they were doing to assemble quickly.
Because all their tasks were issued by Icaroya.
The tasks given by Icaroya have one characteristic, which is that you must execute them immediately without any delay.
"Su Mo, I’ll go with you."
Qian Chengxue said to Su Mo at this time.
Su Mo instinctively wanted to persuade her not to come, it was too dangerous. But he saw the clarity and determination in Qian Chengxue’s eyes and changed his response.
"Alright!"
Qian Chengxue showed a slight smile upon hearing Su Mo agree, she then asked.
"By the way Su Mo, should we pick up Lan Xi first? In case we get injured, there will be a doctor."
"It’s too late, we’re about to depart, we’ll pick her up later."
Su Mo indeed wanted to bring Lan Xi, but the situation now did not allow for it, and taking her along would be dangerous.
At this time, Commander Baryk of the Thunder Base defense, Barcelville of the Laurel Kingdom, and advanced members from various countries in the First Birthplace all gathered over.
"Commander Su Mo."
"Everyone?"
Su Mo frowned slightly, looking at the crowd who had sought him out.
"Lord Su Mo, we received orders from Lord Icaroya to proceed into outer space and fight the Eternal Sleep Clan, thus we need to break through Ceres’ atmosphere. However, monsters are everywhere outside, so we thought to proceed together, hoping Lord Su Mo could join us, which would increase the success rate."
Commander Baryk briefly explained the situation.
Upon hearing this, Su Mo immediately realized. It seems that the countries of the Second Birthplace and the Third Birthplace received orders to attack the base of the Eternal Sleep Clan on Ceres.
As for the countries of the First Birthplace, due to their relatively strong prowess, they are likely to assist the regular forces of Star Ring City in combat.
After understanding everything, he nodded and replied.
"No problem."
"Then we shouldn’t delay, let’s hurry and set out."
Baryk said subconsciously.
Just as Su Mo was about to respond, suddenly hurried footsteps approached, a female officer wearing an IV Mechanical Armor hastily arrived.
"Lord Augustus!"
Augustus turned his head over, somewhat puzzled, and replied.
"Morin, why are you here?"
"Lord Augustus, the exploration team led by Dr. Lan Xi is missing."
Morin said breathlessly.
"What did you say, what exactly happened?"
Augustus asked with a changed countenance.
Su Mo’s heart sank as he also asked: "What exactly happened."
"It’s like this, our reconnaissance team saw an image projected by a special distress signal device. After comparing it, we found that the signal was sent by Lord Hai Mo. We then dispatched a large number of personnel to search, but the situation remains bleak, so we came to notify you first."
Molly quickly explained.
Upon hearing this, Su Mo frowned deeply, he didn’t expect such a problem to emerge just as they were about to leave.
"How could this happen? Hai Mo, Wolf, and Luo Qi all drive V generation Pure Mechanical Mecha · Divine Guard. The other escort members drive highly advanced mecha, yet they resorted to last-resort distress signals?"
Augustus was also extremely shocked.
Upon hearing this, Su Mo said in a deep voice: "There’s nothing surprising about encountering powerful monsters on Ceres."
"What should we do now?"
Molly asked anxiously.
"Don’t rush, let me think."
Su Mo said with a headache.
At this moment, Baryk said to Su Mo: "Lord Su Mo, we should go, as for this matter, let the Federation handle it themselves."
"Correct."
Barcelville also chimed in to persuade.
Su Mo’s expression changed several times, as he indeed wanted to go to the rescue, but the Icaroya task was also about to begin.
Augustus was anxious, but dared not let Su Mo go for the rescue at this time.
At this moment, Su Mo made a decision, he lifted his head and said to Baryk and the others.
"Everyone, ordinarily, I should immediately proceed with you to execute the task. However, as you can see, my companions have encountered trouble, and I need to go to the rescue now, I implore you to give me some face and wait for me a moment."
Upon hearing Su Mo’s words, Baryk’s face twitched, and they looked at Su Mo somewhat incredulously.
Barcelville even directly replied: "Lord Su Mo, are you kidding? You’re going to delay Lord of Icaroya’s task for the sake of rescuing one person? You’re gambling your future on this whim!"
Baryk also said solemnly: "Lord Su Mo, you’re being a bit reckless. You need to consider carefully, the importance of these two things is not at the same level."
"Yes, Lord Su Mo, you should seriously consider."
Others present were persuading.
In fact, Baryk and others were speaking rather politely, if it weren’t for Su Mo’s status and position, they would have reprimanded him outright.
Having heard all this, Su Mo felt even more troubled, caught in a dilemma, as he knew Baryk’s words were valid. But to abandon his companions just like that, he was unwilling, so he said in a deep voice.
"How about this, you give me twelve hours to carry out the rescue. I promise to accomplish it within this time, and we can depart immediately thereafter. Any delay we can make up for by increasing our speed on the way to the task area, finding ways to recover the lost time."
