Chapter 240 Saving Lives (Additional - for Silver Alliance Leader Shui Zhong Sha Tang) (Fifth Update)
Additionally, the Sky Dragon Guild recently has been focusing all their efforts on the Freedom Victory Guild, so they scarcely have time to bother with them.
And the reason they dare to cause trouble now is somewhat due to them bluffing with borrowed power.
"Alright."
đťđłđŚđŚđ¸âŻđˇđŻđ°đŁâŻđ.đ¤đđŽ
Sun Li left feeling somewhat disheartened.
After Sun Li had left, Qian Chengxue turned to Su Mo and said, "You must be wondering why I decided to tolerate this."
"Not really, I understand that avoiding conflict temporarily is necessary for survival."
Su Mo shook his head.
Qian Chengxue, with her hands behind her back, continued to gaze at The Crane Orchid being repaired. Although they had secured the Bay Base and replenished their weapon supplies, it was hardly enough.
She only had one opportunity to initiate a war, and this opportunity had to yield substantial returns, or else her situation would become even worse.
...
Three days later, Su Mo was dining in the company cafeteria when he heard his colleagues nearby venting their frustration.
"Are those guys insane? Theyâve been bombing us for three days straight. Weâve shot down so many of their fighters, donât they care at all?"
"Calm down, theyâd be strange if they felt bad about it, just endure it!"
"Seriously, bombing us repeatedly for three days, who can stand it."
"Ah...."
...
Su Mo silently ate his meal, he too thought it was excessive, but he had to admit Qian Chengxueâs judgment was indeed precise.
Just then, Su Moâs phone rang. He instinctively took it out.
The caller ID showed it was Sun Duoxiang.
Su Mo was also a bit puzzled, why would this guy call him at noon? He stood up and walked outside while answering the call.
"Hello!"
"Big brother, itâs a desperate emergency, save me!"
Sun Duoxiangâs alarmed voice came from the phone.
"Speak properly, whatâs happened?"
Su Mo was speechless.
"Iâm right across the street from your corporate office, letâs meet and talk face-to-face."
Sun Duoxiang was still very cautious.
After hearing this, Su Mo hung up without any further conversation and headed outside. It really was trouble coming in waves; with issues piling up here, even Sun Duoxiang was having problems.
Soon, Su Mo walked out of the Dawn Groupâs main office to the street. He looked around and quickly spotted an old van,
where Sun Duoxiang was sitting all bundled up in the driverâs seat.
Su Mo walked over, reached the van, and casually opened the door to sit in the passenger seat.
"Talk, whatâs the matter?"
"Big brother, you really have to save me."
Sun Duoxiang quickly grabbed Su Moâs hand, as if afraid heâd run away.
Su Mo pulled his hand back with a scowl and asked with a hint of annoyance, "Speak clearly."
"Alright, alright, itâs like this. Our guild is planning to attack the Wet God Guild. The guild wants me to act as the spearhead, and with my meager skills, isnât that just sending me to die?"
Sun Duoxiang explained with a mournful face.
Su Mo was startled and replied in disbelief, "Youâre going to fight the Wet God Guild? Whatâs going on?"
"You donât know, those people have gone too far, bombing us for no reason is one thing. The worst part is they also attacked our guildâs giant gold mine base on the Yuechuan Plain. They not only took over the mine, but they also wiped out our Giant Tooth Base nearby. You should know that the mining site was originally secured by our guild in collaboration with Independent Travelers. We took the major share, and the Independent Travelers took the lesser share."
"Canât you find an excuse to get out of it?"
Su Mo pondered for a moment before asking.
"Thereâs no way to shirk it, you donât know how many times my big brother Lin Ming has led people up there to try to take back the mine, but every time they got wiped out by the opposition. Now my big brother is seriously injured and still recuperating in the hospital, and theyâre all urging me to avenge him."
Sun Duoxiang slapped his thigh hard.
"Your big brother?"
Su Mo looked at Sun Duoxiang with a puzzled expression.
Sun Duoxiang, initially very agitated, suddenly realized his slip of the tongue and felt a pang in his heart, thinking he had spoken wrongly.
"I guess so, youâve only been at the Martial God Guild for a short time, and already youâve acknowledged a new big brother."
Su Mo replied with interest.
"No, no, listen to me, itâs not like that. I had no choice. As soon as I joined the Martial God Guild, Lin Ming treated me like a top expert. You wouldnât believe how respectful he was, he gave me everything. You know I dared not accept anything, and the more I declined, the more he valued me. I ended up with no way to refuse his offer to become sworn brothers. But rest assured, old boss, in my heart you are still my big brother, Iâm like a Trojan horse there!"
Sun Duoxiang quickly explained to Su Mo.
"Letâs not talk about this for now. Is their strength really that formidable? Even Lin Ming couldnât beat them?"
Su Mo asked gravely, remembering clearly that Lin Ming was recognized as the top expert, although there were exaggerations as he was an Independent Traveler. But Su Mo had really seen his battle videos; his skills were impeccable, even stronger than Qian Chengxueâs.
"What crap strength, the guy leading them relies purely on his third-generation mechaâs prowess."
Sun Duoxiang couldnât help but spit.
"Third-generation mecha? Got any videos?"
Su Moâs interest was piqued.
"Boss, youâve asked the right person. While others might not have any videos, I actually do have some first-hand information!"
Upon seeing Su Moâs interest, Sun Duoxiang quickly picked up his phone and started playing a video clip for Su Mo.
The video showed an eighteen-meter tall mecha constructed from strengthened bronze-colored Luo Titanium Alloy, with two concealed beam cannons on its shoulders and dual fifteen-meter-long beam sabers in its hands, and eight pairs of automatically rotating auxiliary thruster wings on its back.
The video showed swarms of mechas charging at it!
The third-generation mecha was like a father beating his son, swinging its beam sabers and defeating one âchildâ after another.
Each mecha was effortlessly sliced open like watermelons.
When facing long-range attacks, it waved its beam sabers, effortlessly dispersing the particles to block all incoming attacks.
Furthermore, the mobility of this mecha was extremely high, unimpeded by its massive body.
After watching, Su Mo pondered for a momentâthe performance of this mecha was staggering!
He felt that even his Black Steel Envoy, had it not been destroyed, would not stand a chance against it.
Not only were the two beam sabers long, but they also continually dispersed beam particles, turning into a range attack when swung, which was extremely effective.
However, Sun Duoxiang was right about one thing; the pilot of the mecha seemed quite average, missing several attacks.
"Big brother?"
Sun Duoxiang, seeing Su Mo silent, became anxious. He now could only rely on the big brother. If he lost nerve, he might only be able to prepare to flee.
"Let me think."
Su Moâs expression grew more serious. His thoughts were somewhat chaotic, and additionally, his blood was churning with excitement; honestly, he was more and more tempted by that third-generation mecha the longer he watched.
"Okay, okay."
Sun Duoxiang quickly replied, then shut his mouth, not wanting to disturb Su Mo.
Half an hour later, a trace of resolve flashed across Su Moâs eyes, and he made up his mind, then he said to Sun Duoxiang.
"You go back first and try to delay them as long as possible. Iâll send you a message when Iâm ready here."
"Alright big brother, with your word, Iâm reassured."
Sun Duoxiang, seeing Su Mo agree, immediately felt a great weight lift off his shoulders.
"Itâs settled then."
Su Mo opened the car door and stepped out, heading towards Dawn Group.
