Then Su Mo stood up and looked back. He saw Qian Chengxue talking to a female officer from the GT department.
He walked towards it.
The sergeant saw Su Mo approaching and said very discerningly.
"Sir Qian Chengxue, I'll go down and prepare first."
"Go ahead."
Qian Chengxue nodded.
"Are you busy?"
Su Mo walked to Qian Chengxue and asked.
"No, what do you want from me?"
Qian Chengxue asked with a smile.
"Ahem, that's it. It's time to set off, how about exploring together?"
Su Mo didn't hide it, and opened his mouth to invite.
Qian Chengxue smiled and shook her head and replied: "I'm afraid not, I still have a task assigned by the GT department, and I can't get away for the time being."
"You have a mission?"
A trace of surprise flashed in Su Mo's eyes.
Qian Chengxue explained to Su Mo casually: "Yes! You are a special case. Otherwise, who will complete the task of the GT department! As for Mo Baoke and the others, it is because you brought them here, so there is no
Assignment.”
"All right."
Although Su Mo was a little pity, he didn't say much.
"It's okay. Once my mission is completed, I will meet you as soon as possible."
"Okay, then you have to be careful."
When Su Mo heard what Qian Chengxue said, he responded with concern.
"Well, I still have some things to arrange, so I'll go and get busy first."
"Um."
....
Twelve hours later, the Black Teeth's exits opened one by one, and mechas and starfighters flew out in an orderly manner.
Immediately afterwards, the fleet escorting the Black Teeth's exterior began to break away from the main force one by one.
They met different mechas and starfighters, and then headed to different starry skies.
At this time, Su Mo drove the Gluttony Mecha out of the Black Teeth and approached Zhao Wushuang's fleet on the right.
Inside the gluttony mecha biological cabin.
The holographic images of Zhao Wushuang, Xiao Wen, Chen Shan, Mo Baoke, Sun Duoxiang and others are all linked in.
In this exploration operation, the Lin family's exploration team and the Ye family's exploration team were free to move, and the rest of the people followed Su Mo.
Su Mo coughed and felt a little nervous. This was his first time to formally command a large-scale group mission.
To be honest, Su Mo really felt a little pressure.
Then Su Mo officially spoke: "Let me briefly talk about the matters of this operation and the tasks explored, as well as the most important things to pay attention to. First of all, once any abnormal situation is discovered or special resources are discovered, we must first
It is an iron law to report unconditionally at once. Anyone who violates this rule will be punished. In addition, do not take any chances and try to hide it. The Black and White Agency specially dispatches inspectors who will inspect all exploration teams.
.”
"clear!"
Everyone responded one after another.
"Okay, don't say anything else, everyone just follow me!"
After Su Mo finished explaining the matter, he controlled the Gluttony Mecha and took the lead in flying towards the starry sky ahead.
"Oh yeah! It's started."
Sun Duoxiang shouted excitedly.
"I said, is it necessary to be so excited? This is just the beginning, so be calm. As a younger brother, how can you lose the face of Lord Su Mo?"
Mo Baoke started to lick Su Mo in reverse direction again.
Sun Duoxiang said with a look of disdain: "Of course I'm excited. The boss got the intelligence coordinates given by Master Spade. Others are searching for resources. We are digging for resources. We will have something to eat as soon as we get it. How can we not be excited?"
"real?"
Chen Shan and others also looked surprised.
"That's about it. Let's speed up the pace."
Su Mo responded calmly.
Hearing Su Mo's words, Mo Baoke said with great excitement: "Master Su Mo, you are indeed the one sent by God to save us. I love you so much."
"Gungun, hurry up and follow."
Su Mo didn't even bother to complain.
"okay!"
.....
Two days later, Su Mo piloted the Gluttony Mecha and found a brown asteroid according to the designated coordinates given by Spade. The asteroid was small in size, less than one-tenth of a standard planet.
However, its atmospheric climate is extremely bad, with raging winds blowing from time to time.
Fortunately, there is no catastrophic climate.
And after preliminary exploration by the scanning device, no life forms were found on this planet.
"Is this where Su Mo is?"
Xiao Wen asked.
"Well, this is it. I will share the specific information with you. Everyone, please move quickly and prepare for landing."
Su Mo observed and said.
"clear!"
Zhao Wushuang replied calmly.
Soon one transport ship and frigate broke through the bad atmosphere, and then the brown earth came into view.
"There are so many pitfalls."
Sun Duoxiang said with some surprise.
At a glance, the ground in their eyes was dotted with at least a hundred deep pits, and it was obvious that the area had been dug.
But even so, Sun Duoxiang and the others were still very excited.
Although it has been dug up, at least the point that proves this is real and valid, and the people of the Yanas Kingdom have definitely not finished digging.
"The rest is up to you, everyone, please be safe."
When Su Mo saw these deep pits, he breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that the trip was not in vain. You must know that they ran straight towards the coordinate point without stopping the whole way.
Another thing is that there is a specialization in the arts. Su Mo is still very experienced in combat. But when it comes to mining and exploring resources, they still have to be allowed to use it freely. After all, professional things still have to be left to professionals.
"clear!"
Zhao Wushuang and others responded one after another.
Soon after, all the ships landed smoothly in the open space, and then the rear cargo bay was opened, and the construction machinery vehicles were unloaded from above in an orderly manner.
At the same time, specially modified Iron Guards were also released.
These iron guards did not retain any weapons, but were equipped with many exploration devices and multi-functional working tools.
They transported this professional mining equipment to different deep pit centers for installation and commissioning.
Conduct remaining resource inventory testing.
There are also some Iron Guard mechas carrying work tool kits and spreading out in different directions. They want to conduct a second exploration of other areas of the planet to confirm whether there are any leftover resources.
"Hurry up and move quickly."
....
Zhao Wushuang, Xiao Wen and others directed in an orderly manner.
Everyone was moving and everyone was very energetic.
On the contrary, Su Mo was free. He leaned back on the driver's seat, crossed his legs forward, stretched out, and prepared to take a rest.
In the absence of task scheduling from the GT department, his responsibility is still very simple, which is to ensure the safety of the operation, and not to interfere with other matters.
Sometimes it's really nice to be a leader.
Two days later, Su Mo was lying leisurely listening to songs.
Suddenly, Zhao Wushuang's holographic image bounced to the center and expanded.
"Sir Su Mo."
"General Zhao Wushuang, what's wrong?"
Su Mo looked at Zhao Wushuang's serious expression and asked with a slight frown.
"We tested the remaining resources in those deep pits, and the results were not very satisfactory. There are resource residues in each pit, but the content is a bit low, just like sugar cane, the sweetest part has been chewed up."
Zhao Wushuang explained.
"Is this the case in every mine?"
"Yes, and that's not all. We found that the grade of the mineral resources that were developed here is also a bit low. Basically, they are mainly first-grade ores, a small part are second-grade ores, and only a very rare part are third-grade ores."
Zhao Wushuang said with a frown.
Su Mo took a deep breath and asked, "What about the team that went out to explore?"
"The information fed back at the moment is all fruitless, which means that except for the coordinates you provided, which clearly have resources, no resources have been found in other areas yet."
Zhao Wushuang explained to Su Mo.
Su Mo felt a little sore after hearing this. His original good mood suddenly disappeared and he asked.
"According to what you said, is it not cost-effective to mine resources here?"
"No, although some resources are very poor, at least there is still something to drink. If you mine it well, you can get a decent profit. It's just that there is a big gap between what was expected and what was expected. I personally feel that it is still necessary to dig it.
, but we can’t have too high expectations. In addition, during the excavation period, we can see how the profits of other regional exploration teams are. If their profits are high, we will abandon this place at the worst."
Zhao Wushuang was actually getting vaccinated against Su Mo.
"okay, I get it."
Su Mo nodded and responded.
Zhao Wushuang saluted Su Mo and hung up the communication.
Su Mo touched his forehead, his head hurt a little. He didn't expect that the reward given by Spade would be so embarrassing.
He suddenly felt a little confused.
Why don't you report the situation here to Spade?
But Su Mo thought about it carefully and decided to forget it.
But if I don't say it, I feel a bit dumb and can't explain the pain of eating Coptis chinensis.
Suddenly, he remembered what Spade said, the resources in the Kativaro starry sky were extremely scarce.
He suddenly looked a little unnatural, so he asked the owner of the forgery, the Devourer, in a low voice.
"Xiao Xie, on our way to this coordinate, did you find any planets with slightly better resources?"
"Dead Star!"
The owner of the forgery, the Devourer, replied with two words.
Su Mo didn't say anything after hearing this.
At this time, Sun Duoxiang's communication connection came in. He came up and said sadly: "Boss, this is not a good thing. I searched for a long time and couldn't find it. It's not as good as when I collected the garbage."
"You have to dig even if it's not fertile."
Su Mo said with a headache.
"All right."
When Sun Duoxiang heard what Su Mo said, he could only shut his mouth and hang up the communication.
Su Mo stretched out and breathed a few times.
Prepare to go back and look for it yourself.
At this moment, Su Mo's phone suddenly vibrated.
Su Mo was stunned for a moment, what's going on? He's not on the ship now, why is his phone vibrating?
And the next second, a prompt popped up on the Gluttony Mecha's operation interface.
"Prompt, new signal source received."
Su Mo was stunned for a moment, then he took out his phone and saw that it received a so-called official message.
He subconsciously clicked on the message.
"Dear Star Ring Summoner, I am honored to inform you that the signal source of the Star Ring City has been fully deployed and will cover the following star fields without blind spots, Goruk Star Territory, Sicilis Star Territory, Dunk
Ye Starry Sky, Tikavalo Starry Sky, Gray Scorpion Starfield...a total of one hundred and seventy-two starfields, a new forum, the Star Ring official forum, will be reopened at that time."
Su Mo was dumbfounded when he saw this prompt. Is this okay?
At this time, Su Mo's communication channel exploded.
"Boss, boss, did you receive the message that the official forum of Star Ring has been opened? The signal of Star Ring City covers this place, it is simply too awesome."
Sun Duoxiang shouted excitedly.
"It's true. I used the system on the mecha to search casually, then performed identity verification, and I really logged in to my previous account."
Mo Baoke said in great surprise.
....
"Quiet, let me study it."
Su Mo's head was also a little messy.
So Su Mo tried the operation on his mobile phone, and found that he had successfully logged into the Star Ring Forum.
I saw that the entire Star Ring forum was super lively, with more than 10,000 posts just opening.
One of them is very eye-catching.
"Those bastards from the High Motos Empire are extremely shameless. They actually attacked our exploration ship and kidnapped our people. This matter is not over yet. Don't let us in the Yamak Free State get the chance. We will definitely skin you."
.”
...
Su Mo clicked in to take a look and saw a large number of replies below.
Most of them are fully supported.
But occasionally there are some very angry replies.
"A bunch of rubbish, only worthy of being our slaves. If it weren't for the rules of the Star Ring City, we would have killed your home planet long ago. We are waiting for you in the sea of stars."
"The weak will eat the strong, and those who obey us will live, and those who go against us will die."
....
Su Mo browsed the forum and found that at least one-third of the posts were accusing those very aggressive civilizations, and many people had been attacked.
Especially the High Motos Empire was accused the most.
Many posts are accompanied by evidence and photos.
You can see a Gomotos soldier fully armed, wearing heavy mechanical armor, holding a beam gun, and capturing a large number of people.
Su Mo looked carefully at the soldiers of the Gaumotos Empire. Their physiques alone were intimidating, they were too strong.
You must know that this is just the most basic soldier, not a particularly top-notch combat power. This imperial soldier is really brave and good at fighting.
Su Mo's opinion posts continued browsing and he found many interesting posts.
Someone actually posted a selfie of themselves digging in a high-end mining area, with multi-functional mechanical machines at work behind them.
High-grade ores were dug out one by one.
Replies keep popping up.
"Brother, where can I make a fortune and lead us?"
"yes."
....
Su Mo shook his head. The person who posted this message was either too arrogant or just fishing.
He continued to browse other posts, and then he found a complaint post.
"What the hell, posting a post requires star coins. Isn't this robbery?"
Su Mo was slightly startled. The relationship forum was not completely free. He clicked in to take a look.
As a result, a lot of people complained.
"Brother, it's not scary to ask for money to post a post. What's scary is that you can only reply one sentence to the forum for free every day. If you reply more, you will have to pay, and it is a cumulative superposition mechanism. In other words, the first sentence will cost 1 star coin, and the second sentence will be charged.
The second sentence is 10 star coins, and the third sentence is 100 star coins. Whoever dares to stand on the forum and say 10 paid words in a row, I will call him daddy! Damn, this forum is here to attract money."
"You want to be someone's son these days, but they won't accept you."
.....
After more than an hour, Su Mo had a rough understanding of the situation. This forum was not completely free.
Star Ring City is not a charity. It charges money, but that’s normal. After all, it covers such a wide area and has such a good signal!
If there is no charge, everyone might use the forum as a communication tool when exploring resources in the signal coverage area, which is not a waste of time.
Appropriate charging will prevent this situation. After all, star coins are indeed very difficult to earn.
Another thing is that the current situation is really a bit messy.
Judging from the complaints made by many people, some civilizations have just begun to develop, and some civilizations have become very restless.
They are robbing other people everywhere.
While Su Mo was thinking, a command popped up on the virtual interface of the Gluttony Mecha.
"Urgent notice, due to the sudden opening of the Star Ring Forum, which has caused uncontrollable risks, Lord Spade has officially issued an order to strictly prohibit any posting of sensitive posts and replies on the forum to prevent inadvertent leakage of one's own information and thus being targeted.
,Anyone who violates this will be severely punished.”
Su Mo looked at this message and felt it was a bit tricky. Spade's worry was not unreasonable.
If this is a confidential mission and someone leaks the secret without warning, things will really get into trouble.
So Su Mo entered a command on the virtual operation interface and linked it to the communication channel of all workers.
He said in a deep voice: "Everyone, I am Su Mo. I would like to inform you of something at the last minute. In order to ensure the smooth progress of the exploration mission and avoid unnecessary troubles, we have now temporarily decided that everyone is strictly prohibited from entering the room during the operation.
Please supervise each other when publishing any comments or posts on the Star Ring Forum."
"yes!"
Zhao Wushuang and others immediately responded that everyone was not stupid and could naturally understand the key points.
Not to mention anything else, if Sumo and the others were able to collide with the people of the Annas Kingdom in the Kativaro starry sky, there would be fleets of other civilizations nearby.
If other civilization fleets are aware that they are nearby, they will really be attacked by surprise.
After all, not everyone in this world is willing to dig for resources honestly. Some people just think that if they just grab resources, they will get rich faster.
.....
In the command room of the Black Tooth, Spade looked at the Star Circle Forum with a gloomy expression.
At this time, Aubrey reported to Speedway: "The order has been passed through various transit ships and issued to all operating personnel, and it should be basically received."
"Well, well done."
Spade replied in a deep voice.
"But Master Spade, is this really effective? It feels like our situation will become more passive after the forum is opened."
Aubrey said hesitantly.
"Survival of the fittest, the forum is a double-edged sword. If you use it well, you can make a lot of money. If you use it poorly, you will be ripped off. Let's not talk about this. Did the team that went out to explore give back the first round of information?"
"The feedback came back, and it was 10,000 times worse than imagined. The team went out to explore more than 320 planets of different sizes. It's okay if they didn't find any good resources. The problem is that most of them are waste planets. There are still a handful of them.
It’s not a good sign to find a first-level resource star.”
Aubrey said worriedly.
"Are there any special circumstances besides this?"
Spade asked calmly.
"No abnormalities have been found yet."
"Then continue to explore. The assignment has just begun. What are you saying to be discouraged?"
Spade calmly said that he didn't care at all whether the people who went out to explore could find resources. He knew how poor this place was. Now he was determined to find the abnormal area and see if he could find the ruins of the Titan clan.
dig it out.
"clear."
Aubrey responded immediately.
.....
Half a month later, Su Mo drove the Gluttony Mecha through the atmosphere very quickly, fell from the sky, and landed gracefully on the ground.
In the cab, Su Mo turned his head and stretched his neck.
He exhaled. He had just explored the starry sky on the western side of the planet, but still found nothing.
Su Mo took out a nutritional bar from the side and bit it open, then lay down on the driver's seat, and then opened the Star Ring Forum.
Since the forum was opened, Su Mo would browse it whenever he had free time to obtain first-line information.
Although everyone is very restrained in speaking on the forum, there are still many people posting.
From time to time, important posts will appear.
For example, there was a man named Malok who didn't know any civilization. He posted a trading post and openly sold weapons.
They range from first-generation mechas to third-generation mechas.
There are also ships from level 1 to level 3.
The price is not expensive either, basically half of the selling price of Halo City.
You can buy it with resources and star coins.
And he claimed that these weapons were all brand new and the price could be negotiated in large quantities.
Normally, this is just a weapons dealer and there is nothing to worry about. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of self-proclaimed high-level weapons dealers on the Star Ring Forum.
But those weapons dealers cannot withstand scrutiny. They are either scammers or second-hand dealers. They specialize in reselling weapons from the Ring City to rip off those who have been taken advantage of.
Or it's a black man who eats black things.
But this man updates real-time trading photos every day.
Every day you can see people buying weapons in large numbers. Although the faces of the people buying them are mosaic-like, judging from their physiques and clothing, it can basically be confirmed that the people buying them are from different civilizations.
This guy is most likely a real weapons dealer, and he also produces the kind he produces himself.
There was another post that also concerned Su Mo.
This post is dedicated to selling information, and it is clearly written on it that as long as the price paid is high enough, any information can be provided.
There are so many people replying and buying, it looks very tempting.
But this is not the most important thing. The most important point is that this post also recycles information at a high price.
This is not a good thing. It would be funny if someone was short of money and sold their own country's intelligence out of a sudden impulse.
Su Mo squinted his eyes. He felt that the world might really become lively. Although everyone is cannon fodder, maybe the cannon fodder will also usher in spring.
At this time, Zhao Wushuang's communication image came in.
"Sir Su Mo."
"What's wrong"
Su Mo asked.
"The remaining mineral veins here have been steadily mined, and the current output is very stable. But the only pity is that other exploration teams have not found resources elsewhere on the planet."
Zhao Wushuang's routine report.
After listening to this, Su Mo stretched out and replied: "I understand, let's do this, General Zhao Wushuang, I will leave all the responsibility to you here. I am going to explore further areas to see if there is anything better.
point."
He was not surprised at all by this result. He had not been idle in the past ten days. He piloted the Gluttony Mecha and searched nearby, but there was no profit, so it was not that easy to obtain new mineral points.
"good!"
Zhao Wushuang nodded and responded.
After Su Mo cut off the communication, he smiled and said to the owner of the forgery, the Devourer: "The next step is up to you. We have to get serious about exploring."
"I know what to do, I don't need you to remind me."
The owner of the forgery, the Devourer, replied in a deep voice. Of course, the reason why it is so easy to talk to is because it has benefited from Mina.
"Okay, then let's go to the depths of the starry sky."
Su Mo's eyes became serious. He was still full of confidence in the ability of the forger, the Devourer.
