Four hundred and thirtieth eight chapters preoccupied
GT department medical testing room.
Mai Han was lying in a separate medical room. He had just been tested by instruments just now.
All values were normal and he did not have any infections.
But Mai Han's expression became more and more silent. He kept thinking about the original battle, with a look of suspicion on his face, which made him always feel that something was wrong.
But he couldn't tell what was wrong.
He looked at the test data, his expression constantly changing.
"General McHen?"
At this time, a soft voice sounded.
When Mai Han came back to his senses and raised his head, he saw a female doctor with short blond hair and glasses walking up to him holding documents in her hands and saying.
"General Maihan, why are you dazed with the physical examination report? All of your physical parameters are very healthy. According to regulations, you only need to be quarantined for three days before you can move around freely."
"Della..."
Mai Han raised his head and shouted, wanting to express his questions and concerns, but when the words came to his lips, he hesitated...
"What's wrong."
"nothing."
Maihan shook his head.
"General Maihan, I feel that your mental state is not very good. You have been in a very heavy mood since you came back from the mission. I understand the pressure you are under and I believe in your will. But I still want to give you some advice. If
If necessary, I can arrange counseling with a psychologist for you, there is nothing to be ashamed of."
Della spoke to persuade.
"No thanks."
Mai Han refused. He is fine now and there is no problem with the test. If he explains the situation at this time.
Then the higher-ups will definitely doubt themselves, and when the time comes, what is not a problem will become a problem.
And Maihan knew best what the consequences would be for those who were infected, so he finally hesitated.
"Oh well."
.........
In the Heiyao quarantine area, Su Mo and others came out after completing three days of quarantine.
I saw Lin Yue and others waiting for a long time at the exit, waving her hands excitedly.
"Xiao Wen, Su Mo, Chen Shan..."
They met soon after, and upon seeing each other, the surviving team members hugged their companions happily.
"It's rare that Lin Yue would come to pick us up."
Chen Shan joked with a smile.
"Chief Chen Shan, you are so mean. When I heard that you were trapped, I was so anxious that I was asking for help everywhere. If I had known, I would have ignored you."
Lin Yue complained angrily.
"Thank you for your hard work, don't listen to Chen Shan's nonsense."
Xiao Wen replied with a smile.
Su Mo couldn't help but smile when he saw them playing around, it felt good.
At this time, Lin Yue glanced at the team members who followed him out, and asked subconsciously: "Sir Xiao Wen, are these the only people we have to return? Have the other people not been quarantined yet?"
Upon hearing Lin Yue's words, everyone present was stunned.
Xiao Wen's eyes dimmed a lot, and he said: "There were a total of 300 people participating in this operation, and only these 112 people came back alive and safe. There are also a dozen people who are being treated in isolation."
Hearing this, everyone present lowered their heads.
Lin Yue forced out a smile and said, "Sir Xiao Wen, this is not your fault. You have tried your best."
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go back and have a good rest. As for the dead brother, I will properly arrange all the funeral arrangements."
Xiao Wen adjusted his mood and said.
At this moment, a soldier behind Lin Yue stood up and gritted his teeth and said to Xiao Wen: "Sir, our brothers died on the battlefield. We have nothing to say. But we heard that many people just suffered
Is there such a thing as being killed by one of your own people after being slightly injured?"
After hearing the words of the soldier in front of them, Su Mo and Xiao Wen looked at each other and their expressions changed slightly.
Both of them felt that something was wrong.
Su Mo asked: "Who did you listen to?"
"Sir Su Mo, you don't need to listen to anyone. This matter has spread to all combat units. Before, everyone was silent because they were busy rescuing people and evacuating. Now that the operation mission is over, we are about to explode.
I just want to know if it’s true.”
"Don't believe the rumors. Your own people will not kill your own people."
Xiao Wen said in a deep voice.
"Then what's going on? Chief Xiao Wen, just tell us."
For a while, the people who stayed behind asked.
Xiao Wen couldn't help but fell silent, and he didn't know how to speak.
"Let me tell you, as long as people are infected with the negative energy virus, with the drugs and treatment technology we have now, it is basically impossible to save them. Therefore, most of the GT department's medical teams resort to euthanasia, and only a few lucky people can be saved.
.”
Su Mo opened his mouth to explain.
"real or fake?"
The people left behind asked in shock.
Qin Feng and others were no longer silent at this time, and started to speak one after another: "What the officer said is true."
After everyone heard this, everyone's eyes showed disbelief. When they came back to their senses, their faces turned red and they said angrily: "This is a deliberate concealment, it is murder!"
After Xiao Wen and others listened, they fell into silence. In a sense, what they said was right.
After a long time, Xiao Wen said to everyone: "I know you are very angry, but the higher-ups also have their own considerations on this matter. When the right opportunity comes, I will raise objections to the higher-ups. But please keep our identities in mind and don't make mistakes.
If there is any commotion, this matter will end here for the time being."
"Yes, Chief Xiao Wen."
Although everyone was very angry, they finally bowed their heads and responded.
Su Mo couldn't help but shook his head when he saw this situation.
.......
A few days later, Blackout entered sublight flight.
Uptown Tomb, Augustus, Spade, Li Ruiqi and other top commanders all stood in front of the memorial monument wearing white shirts and black plain clothes.
There are names engraved on the huge monument and it is filled with flowers.
Because most of the people who died were cremated on the spot, or their bodies were left on the planet Batak.
Only a small number of people brought their remains back, so mass burials were adopted.
Spade took the lead in bowing three times, and a group of officers behind him also followed suit. Tiny sounds of crying could be heard at the scene.
The Batak planet plan seems to be going well, but in fact the battle damage is also quite serious. The total number of participants in the three legions is 120,000, and the number of people who returned is less than 80,000, and nearly half of them were killed or injured.
You must know that the troops going down this time are the most elite aces. Every death is a huge loss.
At this time, there was a noisy argument outside the tomb.
Augustolas frowned slightly, turned to look at his deputy and said, "Jeru went to see what happened. Don't you know there is mourning here?"
"yes!"
Djelu hurriedly ran out to take a look.
Not long after, Djeru hurried back with a somewhat ugly expression. He said to Augustus and Spade: "Sir, it's not good. A large number of lower-level soldiers gathered outside and protested angrily. They believed that the upper-level commanders deliberately
Concealing the seriousness of the negative energy virus infection resulted in the death of a large number of companions!"
Spade's expression sank and he said: "What nonsense? They still don't understand. This is a war! And it is also a war of life and death for the race. The reality is cruel. No matter whether it is concealed or not, there is no difference in the final result."
Li Ruiqi said at this time: "Vice President Spade, although this is the truth, I also understand that you are taking last resort measures to ensure that the plan goes smoothly, but I think we did something wrong in this matter.
"
"If I don't do that, how can I ensure that the combat mission is completed? If everyone who goes to fight has a fearful mentality and is timid when fighting, it will only kill more people."
Spade said gloomily.
On the side, Augustus also said in a deep voice: "Okay, don't argue. The thing has happened. Let's find a way to solve it."
"Actually, there are some things that I want to wait until the memorial ceremony is over. But since the matter has been revealed, I might as well say it now. Regarding the negative energy virus, it has been spread among various legions and has caused serious consequences.
The panic. According to the feedback from many non-commissioned officers, the soldiers below have shown serious passive and sabotage behavior, and even the general affairs departments of various regiments have received a large number of discharge applications. The situation has become very serious."
Li Ruiqi sighed deeply and revealed the matter.
"A bunch of cowards!"
Spade suddenly became furious.
Augustus persuaded: "Calm down Spade, you don't want to get involved in this matter. Later I will come out in person to apologize and give a speech to all the soldiers to calm the matter down. You said it yourself, at that time
In extraordinary times, concealment is a last resort. Now that the situation has eased, we should also take into account the mood of the people below."
"I see."
Spade's expression changed for a while and finally he spoke.
.......
In Xiacheng District, Su Mo was lying on his bed, watching TV and playing with the rough metal stone in his hand.
Su Mo looked around and felt that this thing seemed to be very high-end, but he didn't know the price.
At this time, Augustus's live broadcast was being played on the TV. He was apologizing to everyone in a eloquent manner. He explained in a contagious manner why the concealment occurred, and Yi Zai assured that the accompanying GT department medical staff would definitely
Try your best to treat all companions, and no companion will be abandoned.
...
Su Mo glanced at Augustolas who was speaking thoughtfully.
It seemed that the matter was quite serious, and Augustolas was able to apologize in person.
Forget it, I don’t want to think about that anymore. In fact, Su Mo thought about it carefully later. Although what Augulas and the others did was very unreasonable, from a rational point of view, maybe this is the only way to minimize casualties. Of course, it has negative effects.
It's also very obvious.
At this moment, Su Mo's phone suddenly vibrated.
Su Mo picked it up and took a look. It was a text message reminder.
"Respectfully, Staff Officer Su Mo (external employee), due to your outstanding performance in the Thief Plan, you have received a high reward. The reward will be transferred to your personal account."
Immediately afterwards, Su Mo received another short message, and his personal federal card received a payment of fifteen star coins, which was worth about 150,000 federal coins. Now one star coin can be exchanged for about 10,000 federal coins, but it is worth noting
One point is that star coins can be freely exchanged for federal coins, but federal coins cannot be exchanged for star coins.
Now the federal banking system supports the storage of two currencies.
Of course, it is safe to store small amounts of star coins in the Commonwealth Bank, and it is very convenient for transactions. However, storing large amounts of star coins will cause bank vigilance, so people who hold large amounts of star coins generally apply for cards in the City of Stars themselves.
.
At this point in time, the rewards were suddenly given out, and they were so rich, which probably helped to calm down the commotion to some extent.
Su Mo got up and prepared to go to Zhongcheng District to look for any books or information on ores so that he could identify the rough metal stone in his hand.
So Su Mo hid the original metal stone under the bed.
Soon after, Su Mo came to Zhongcheng District, and he was surprised to find that the whole area had become more lively.
There are many shops on the street with exaggerated promotional posters.
"A large number of new products have arrived in our store, originating from the destroyed Batak Kingdom. As long as you can't imagine it, you can buy it."
"Big promotion, relic blind box, buy one get one free!"
...
Su Mo was a little dazzled by what he saw. He started to visit one store after another, asking if there was any information about the ore.
It's a pity that I didn't gain much after shopping for a long time. Their sign outside is very colorful. In fact, there are very few things for sale inside, after all, it is quite expensive.
At this time, he saw a relatively large-looking store with the name Strange Friends Store, so he walked in curiously.
At this time, a very energetic young man immediately came up to receive him.
"May I ask, sir, what do you want to buy? We sell a lot of good things here, and many of them are new."
"What's there?"
Su Mo asked curiously.
"It depends on what you want, daily necessities? Medicine? Or weapons..."
"It's so complete, let's take a look at the weapons."
Su Mo also became interested for a while.
"Sir, you need to show your professional identity certificate to purchase weapons."
The young man said with a smile.
Su Mo took out his ID card and handed it over. The young man in front of him checked it, then handed it back to Su Mo and said, "Thank you, sir, we have the latest single weapon here, the beam gun."
As he spoke, the boy took out an old-looking beam gun from the safe behind him.
At first glance, you can tell that they are trophies excavated from the Batak Kingdom.
Su Mo took it and tried it for a while, then said, "It feels good, but it's a bit old."
"Sir, don't think so. This beam gun would cost a hundred star coins at least in Halo City. Now it only costs fifty star coins and comes with two light energy magazines. It's super cost-effective."
The young man highly recommended it.
Su Mo shook his head: "Although this weapon is good, its killing power is not much different from that of a large-caliber primitive automatic pistol. It's just that there is a slight difference in ammunition capacity. Is there anything else?"
"Yes, we also sell many good things here. Here is the catalog."
As he spoke, the young man picked up a list and handed it to Su Mo.
Su Mo looked at the target above, with a flash of surprise in his eyes. There were actually old second-generation mechas for sale.
There are even second-hand transport ships.
It seems that these people got a lot of good things from the ruins of the Batak Kingdom.
However, the prices above are also very dark, and all selling prices are settled in star coins, and there is basically no settlement in federal coins.
Su Mo's pockets were empty now, but he didn't show it, but couldn't help but shook his head.
"Sir, are you not satisfied? I can help you find the goods for whatever you want to buy. I know all the larger stores in Zhongcheng."
The young man tried his best to promote business. Even though there were so many floating customers in Zhongcheng, the key was that they had the spending power, and there were not many of them, because all they wanted were star coins.
Su Mo replied: "I want to find some information about ores. The more comprehensive the better, can you help me find it?"
"No problem. If you wait for a few days, I will definitely find it for you."
The young man responded with a smile.
"That's okay."
Su Mo nodded in response.
"This is my business card. My name is Pardes Cadote (guest guest from Book Friend and Stranger Friend). I don't know what to call you, sir."
"My name is Su Mo. This is my phone number. If you have any news, you can call me."
Su Mo wrote his phone number to the other party.
"OK."
.......
On the other side, Xiao Wen met the quartermaster Wu Yue in a giant hangar.
Xiaowen and Wu Yue hugged each other.
"Old Xiao, long time no see."
Wu Yue smiled and greeted.
Xiao Wen also responded with a smile on his face: "We said goodbye to the City of Stars. We haven't seen each other for more than a year. I didn't expect you to be on the ship, and this time the quartermaster is you."
"Haha, what a coincidence. By the way, I heard that you just completed a mission from the Batak planet not long ago and gained another military honor?"
Wu Yue responded with a smile.
"Don't mention it. The losses were heavy. I even put the Gray Hornet and the mecha inside, so this is not to apply for a quota."
Xiao Wen replied dumbfounded.
"It'll be good if you come back alive, don't think too much about anything else."
Wu Yue nodded and said.
At this time, Xiao Wen asked with a smile: "Brother Wu Yue, I heard that this time, the First Army seems to have obtained a batch of third-generation mechas from the weapons depot of the Batak Kingdom. Do you think we can separate them?"
point."
Wu Yue's expression froze and he said awkwardly: "Brother Xiao Wen, are you kidding me? I'm telling you that I have built a total of ten third-generation mechas, five of which have been reserved by the GT department, and three have been ordered by the GT department.
The people from the First Army directly seized them and took them away. The remaining two are spare machines for the generals, so they are definitely useless."
"Haha, don't be so nervous, I'm just asking."
Xiao Wen also felt a little pity in his heart. He was actually eager to get a third-generation mecha for Su Mo to use. If they had a third-generation mecha, how could they be beaten in such a mess.
"Your joke is a bit scary, and my heart can't stand it. But we are all old classmates. Don't worry, I am within my authority. I will definitely take care of you first. Didn't you just say that your Gray Hornet was damaged? And your machine
A was also destroyed? Let me tell you this, I also have a very good ship indicator here. Although it is also a small transport ship, this ship is a fine product. Its prototype may be a smuggling ship. The internal process
The transformation is also very powerful. The most important thing is to be equipped with ship-borne attack weapons. You can apply for this indicator, and it will be named Gray Hornet. As for the mecha, I have left you a second-generation mecha...
..”
Wu Yue said with a smile.
"Thank you so much. Please, I'll leave first."
Xiao Wen thanked him very much.
"good."
Wu Yue nodded and responded.
Xiao Wen then turned around and walked out of the hangar, preparing to walk towards the elevator in the distance.
At this time he suddenly froze.
I saw in the distance that Wang Hai, Qian Chengxue and others had just finished doing things at another military supply office and were about to enter the elevator.
Xiao Wen was also surprised to see Wang Hai and Qian Chengxue. He didn't expect to meet them here, so he hurried after them.
As a result, they had already entered the elevator and left after taking only a few steps.
Xiao Wen stopped and fell into deep thought.
I was too excited when I saw Wang Hai and Qian Chengxue just now and didn't think about it carefully. Now that I have calmed down, the more I think about it, the more something is wrong.
How come the two of them are together?
At first, Xiao Wen thought that Wang Hai would send someone to rescue them just because he was accidentally assigned to the rescue mission. However, after returning home, he clearly realized that something was wrong. The other party had spent a lot of effort to ask someone to rescue them.
He thought it was strange at the time to see Qian Chengxue and Wang Hai together.
Then everything was figured out. Qian Chengxue must have asked Wang Hai to save them.
From this point of view, their relationship should be extraordinary.
This couldn't help but give Xiao Wen a bad premonition, and his expression became more and more complicated.
...
Inside the K52 hangar.
Chen Shan and Su Mo were chatting and laughing.
"I told you, I heard that there will be a lot of weapons and equipment distributed this time, and maybe there will be high-end mechas."
"Really, are there third-generation mechas?"
Su Mo asked with a hint of expectation.
Chen Shan replied with a black look on his face: "Brother, are you kidding me? There is no need to think about third-generation mechas. I will be grateful if I can give Taiwan second-generation mechas and then some more I-generation mechas."
Lin Yue also joined in the fun and said, "You're exaggerating, haha."
"I asked Lin Yue, can you please stop making trouble?"
Chen Shan said helplessly.
"By the way, why hasn't Xiao Wen come back yet?"
"It should be soon. He has been applying for quotas in the past two days. I heard that there have been too many people applying recently."
"Um, didn't you mention that many people are going to retire from the army recently?"
"If we can't retreat and the higher-ups don't approve it, everyone must find ways to get more weapons for self-defense."
"That makes sense."
.....
At this time, Xiao Wen came over from a distance. From a distance, he saw Su Mo chatting happily with Chen Shan and the others.
His mood was extremely complicated. In fact, it was a good thing to get the news from Qian Chengxue. He knew that Su Mo had been making insidious inquiries.
But Xiao Wen also knew very well that once he told Su Mo about Qian Chengxue's whereabouts, it would probably be the time for him to leave.
To be honest, Xiao Wen couldn't bear to look back on the time they spent fighting together.
But this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that Qian Chengxue and Wang Hai are now very close. Although Su Mo is very good, he is still far behind Wang Hai. If he told this matter, wouldn't it be very...
A serious blow.
He thought about it and finally gritted his teeth and decided that he had to tell Su Mo.
So Xiao Wen took a deep breath and walked towards Su Mo and the others.
When Chen Shan saw Xiao Wen walking in, he said excitedly: "Lao Xiao is back. How is everything going? Has our quota application been approved?"
"The application has been approved."
Xiao Wen responded.
"Really, have we been re-equipped with ships, and how many mechas have been allocated..."
Lin Yue kept asking excitedly.
If it were normal, Xiao Wen would have been patient enough to explain the specific allocation to Lin Yue and the others.
But now his mind was filled with things about Su Mo. He was a little absent-minded and hesitantly shouted: "Su Mo."
"Um."
Su Mo was currently thinking about the third-generation mecha. It was a little difficult without weapons.
"that....."
Xiao Wen was about to tell Su Mo about Qian Chengxue.
At this time, Su Mo's cell phone rang. He picked up the phone and glanced at the name of the caller. Then he picked up the phone and said something to Xiao Wen and the others.
"You guys are busy first."
After saying that, Su Mo walked out.
"Hello, I'm Su Mo."
"Mr. Su Mo, I have found the complete information on minerals that you asked for before. When do you think you will be free to come over?"
"I'll be there right away."
Su Mo replied.
"That's something I have to do. Let's leave for a while."
Su Mo turned around and shouted to Xiao Wen and the others.
"That...hey~"
When Xiao Wen just wanted to call Su Mo, Su Mo had already walked away.
Not long after, Su Mo came to the store.
"Hello, Mr. Su Mo."
Pardes Cadote warmly welcomed him.
"Where's what you found?"
Su Mo asked.
Pardes Cadote took out a box from the counter, opened the box and placed a memory card inside.
"In it, there is a list and detailed introduction of all the recovered mineral resources in Star Ring City. There is also a complete list of the functions of mineral resources. It can be said that the more complete the more comprehensive it is."
"How much."
Su Mo's eyes lit up slightly and he asked.
"Not expensive for 100 star coins!"
Pardes Cadote responded with a smile.
"It's too expensive. One million federal coins is almost enough."
Su Mo answered.
The smile on Pardes Cadote's face suddenly stiffened. He smiled and said, "Mr. Sumo, are you kidding me? Although 1 million federal coins and 100 star coins are equivalent in value, we only accept star coins here.
.”
"I can add more."
Su Mo then replied.
"I'm sorry I can't sell it."
Pardes Cadote shook his head and replied, the two are not equivalent at all.
"Ten pentacles!"
When Su Mo saw this, he immediately opened his mouth and slashed with his knife, following the rhythm of slashing the aorta. If it were a clerk with a bad temper, he would definitely think that this guy was just here to cause trouble.
"Mr. Su Mo, you are so insincere, the price is not like this."
Pardes Cadote replied awkwardly.
"I think the price I paid is high enough. First of all, this kind of data is valuable even if it is said to be valuable, but it is not valuable even if it is not valuable. Because it can be copied, how much does your memory card cost, 10 federal coins? Take a closer look.
The memory card used to give me this information is produced by our federation. It means that this information is not first-hand at all. I don’t know how many copies have been copied. If you are not willing to sell it, I will turn around and leave. It is nothing more than spending more money.
Make some effort and go shopping."
Su Mo analyzed it unusually calmly.
Pardes Cadote showed a wry smile and said to Su Mo: "It's rare to see someone with such a clear mind as Mr. Su Mo. Okay, I'll sell him ten star coins."
"good."
Su Mo picked up his card and made the transaction.
Then Su Mo took the memory card and left. Pardes Cadote looked at Su Mo's leaving figure and showed a bright smile.
This time he made a lot of money. In fact, he only spent one star coin to copy the information. Now he not only sold it for ten star coins, he also backed up the information and could sell it again.
It is said that the Black Yao is a gold mining paradise, and it is indeed true. It is not in vain that he gave up all the Cadot family's properties and started a business here.
...
Soon after, Su Mo returned to his home.
He inserted the memory card into the computer and copied the data inside.
The information here is extremely comprehensive. Judging from the catalog, it contains more than one million valuable ores.
Of course, not every ore has a detailed introduction.
A lot of information only has names and pictures, as well as recycling prices in Halo City.
Su Mo took out the rough metal stone from under the bed, took a photo with his mobile phone, uploaded it to the computer, and then started matching the photo to copy the data.
Within a few seconds, it showed that the match was successful.
A piece of information popped up.
Eternal metal.
Production area: unknown!
Mining conditions: unknown!
Rarity: Extremely rare!
Value: Extremely high!
Function: It is a material for Star Destroyers, V-generation mechas, VI-generation mechas, and advanced mechanical devices.
The recycling price of Star Ring City: 10 million Star Coins 1KG.
When Su Mo saw the recycling price, he also took a breath of air-conditioning. Is it so valuable? If it were to dig hundreds of tons back, wouldn't he be crazy?
Unfortunately, what Su Mo didn't know was that the output of this thing was not that big at all, and the recycling price was actually extremely low.
There is at least a tenfold difference between the recycling prices and selling prices in Star Ring City.
