Chapter 610 Confession
So everyone left.
On the way, Sun Duoxiang said impatiently.
"Boss, is the subject of this assignment really rich in resources?"
"Fat, fat, how can you not be fat, the question is, do you have a life to eat?"
Su Mo replied helplessly.
Xiao Wen asked calmly, "Su Mo, what's going on?"
Su Mo stopped, and said helplessly: "That's right, the Green Gore fleet found a resource star occupied by swarms. There are five in total, and each resource is so rich that your mouth is watering. Question Even those bug swarms are not vegetarian, it is said that the number is extremely large, and the worst thing is, there may be a V-type among them, are you sure you have the life to dig?"
Hearing Su Mo's words, Xiao Wen, Sun Duoxiang and others were speechless for a long time.
"Is that a dead end? Do you want to give up this operation?"
Xiao Wen tried to ask.
"No, it's passed, and we must do it. This time, whoever has the ability will really enjoy it. However, the specific battle plan and the division of interests have not yet been announced. It is estimated that Master Spade and the others will have to discuss it with Bello and the others. "
Su Mo explained.
Sun Duoxiang and the others looked at each other, and finally said: "That is also an opportunity, it is better than wandering around in the starry sky, staring blankly."
When Su Mo heard the answers from Sun Duoxiang and the others, a strange feeling flashed in his heart. He found that he seemed to have overestimated everyone's situation.
"Maybe."
"Isn't there still you, Boss? With you here, we are absolutely fine."
Sun Duoxiang said with a smile.
"Forget it, let's not talk about it, wait for the announcement."
"okay."
the next day.
Su Mo was lying on the bed and fast asleep.
The Black Glory's broadcast immediately rang.
"A temporary announcement is now being played. Master Belo, the commander of the Green Gore fleet of the Kingdom of Yanas, will visit the Black Glory. In order to ensure that the visiting envoys will not be affected in any way, the Black Glory has now entered the second-level control state. Non-essential personnel in some areas are not allowed to approach and enter."
Su Mo sat up after hearing the broadcast, with a surprised expression on his face. He didn't expect Bello and the others to come over.
It seems that they are going to discuss business.
The fact is that just yesterday, Spade and the others immediately informed Bello of their decision to join the war after their meeting. So Bello decided to personally bring a group over to discuss the specific details of the plan, as well as the division of interests.
After Su Mo regained his senses, he immediately got out of bed and changed his clothes, ready to check the situation.
When he walked out of the room, he bumped into Qian Chengxue head-on.
"Do you want to go and see together?"
Su Mo asked.
"good."
Qian Chengxue nodded solemnly.
In the conference room, Bello led a group of people and sat across from Spade and the others.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the two sides began to discuss. The first is the distribution of benefits. Although it is ridiculous to start discussing the distribution of benefits before the war is fought.
But this is necessary, because only when the interests are negotiated, everyone will work together, and there will be no fishing.
"There are five resource stars in total. My idea is very simple. For the four second-level resource stars, each of us will choose two, and the most important third-level resource star, the distribution plan is also very simple. According to killing Zerg The number and level of the people, as well as the contribution and credit, so that no one will suffer. Of course, this is the most ideal state, and it is also possible that our attack will be blocked, and there may be no way to defeat it. But the way of benefit distribution is probably like this, as fair and just as possible , I think you don't want to make everyone feel uncomfortable because of a little benefit, right?"
Bello spoke out the distribution plan he had drawn up a long time ago.
Spade and the others pondered for a while before replying: "Yes, it's fair."
"Then let's start discussing the battle plan."
Bello spoke.
"good."
Spade replied in a deep voice.
"My opinion is still the same as I said at the beginning. Use the method of nibbles to weaken these swarms little by little, and then pull out the nests one by one."
Bello speaks her mind.
At this moment Li Ruiqi said, "Master Bello, I have a different opinion, I wonder if I can express it."
"You say!"
"According to the information you provided, the types of insect swarms in this area are all the same. And every time you launch an attack, the blocking insect swarm does not come from a single insect nest, which means that all insect nests will move."
Li Ruiqi spoke.
"That's right."
Bello nodded.
"In other words, these insect nests may all be one. Once attacked, all the insect nests will not sit idly by, right?"
"Yes."
"To put it bluntly, there is no difference between us fighting one and all of them. At that time, the opponent will increase their troops frantically. The cannibalization plan may not work, and the opponent will not give you this opportunity."
Li Ruiqi retorted.
"Then what's your suggestion?"
Bello looked at Li Ruiqi.
"I think, since we want to fight, let's fight together, so that at least the initiative is still in our hands. There are also some creatures like swarms, if they don't defeat the insect king or queen at their core, they will not collapse , will only fight desperately. Even if we really win by then, it is estimated that we will not be far from the end."
Li Ruiqi explained his thoughts.
Bello frowned, and she said, "Then what if we can't defeat its main force and fall into a stalemate?"
"It doesn't matter, we can wipe out the other insect nests next to it while restraining its main force. On the one hand, it weakens the strength of the insect swarm, and on the other hand, it can be regarded as winning a level II resource star, which can be excavated. Of course All of what I said is based on the fact that we all go all out to achieve it."
Li Ruiqi analyzed calmly.
Spade pondered for a moment and said, "I think what Li Ruiqi said makes sense."
Bello took a deep breath and asked, "What if we fail?"
"No, we must succeed. We cannot afford to lose. Neither the Federation behind us nor the Yanas Kingdom behind you, Lord Bello, can afford to lose."
Li Ruiqi said in a deep voice.
At this time, outside the control area, a large number of people gathered.
Everyone is anxiously waiting.
"What's the situation? Haven't negotiated yet? It's been so long."
"You said how the benefits will be distributed in this joint operation. The people from the Kingdom of Yanas should not be the majority."
"Although they invited us, I heard that this operation is cruel and many people may be sacrificed. If they take the lead, what's the point?"
"That's right, brothers, since it's so dangerous this time, are you planning to participate?"
"I actually don't want to participate, but there's no other way."
Su Mo listened to the anxious discussions of the people around him, also looking thoughtful.
Qian Chengxue, who was standing aside, whispered to Su Mo.
"It feels like the meeting didn't go very smoothly. It's been discussed for a long time."
"For such a big matter, you can't be too cautious, just wait a little longer."
Su Mo replied calmly.
"Boss! Why are you here, didn't you go in for a meeting?"
At this moment, Sun Duoxiang's voice sounded behind Su Mo.
Su Mo turned his head to look over, and saw Sun Duoxiang, Xiao Wen, Mo Baoke and others gathered, he shook his head and replied.
"No, the distribution of benefits and the formulation of combat plans are the affairs of the upper echelons."
"That's right. I don't know how the talk went. Is the situation beneficial to us?"
Sun Duoxiang said with emotion.
"It's not up to us to decide, we just have to wait for the result quietly."
Su Mo replied very calmly.
Xiao Wen agreed, "Su Mo is right."
Time passed little by little until it was almost evening. The soldiers guarding the control area received the order and dispersed one after another.
Seeing this scene, everyone was overjoyed and began to discuss.
"Negotiations seem to be over."
"I don't know when the results will be announced."
Then at this moment, the Black Glory broadcast sounded.
"Dear companions, first interrupt a temporary announcement, please put down your work and all other matters. The deputy chairman of Augustus will give a speech to the whole people in half an hour. It concerns everyone. Please be sure to Listen carefully."
Hearing this broadcast, everyone present looked a little uneasy and discussed in low voices.
"What's the situation? Could it be that the negotiation with the Yanas Kingdom has collapsed?"
"Probably not."
"Then what else can happen."
At this time, Sun Duoxiang and the others asked Su Mo in confusion, "Boss, what's going on?"
"I don't know, but it's definitely not a good thing. Forget it, don't guess, you'll know later."
Su Mo replied thoughtfully.
"All right."
Half an hour later, Augustus' voice sounded as promised.
"Hi everyone, I'm Augustus, the vice-chairman of the federal government. Everyone must know that we are about to conduct a joint operation with the fleet of the Yanas Kingdom to launch an attack on the worm nests in this area to obtain a large amount of resources. What I want to tell you is that this operation is not as usual, and it is extremely dangerous. Even if our two countries join forces, the chances of winning are not very high, and it is not surprising that there will be heavy losses, or even being destroyed here."
As soon as these words came out, everyone who was listening to the broadcast showed worried and fearful expressions on their faces.
"I believe everyone will be wondering, since it is so dangerous, why do we do this? It is because we have no choice. We are the First Federation Expeditionary Corps, with the best equipment and the best personnel, carrying the largest As a result, we haven’t benefited much yet. On the contrary, the Second Federation Expeditionary Fleet has made a triumphant return. Do you feel aggrieved?”
Augustus continued.
Everyone who was listening to the broadcast had a bad face, and no one was willing to admit that he was a loser.
Augustus continued: "Of course, having said that, if it's just a matter of face, we wouldn't take the risk of letting everyone risk their lives to win this opportunity. Not long ago, the Hei Yao received a message from the Federation Remote encrypted information, after the federation received the materials collected by the second fleet, although the situation has eased, it is still not enough, and the resource gap is still extremely serious. In other words, our family is waiting for us to return with the materials! Just ask us Do you have the heart to let them down?"
Many people who were listening to the speech shouted excitedly.
"Never let them down!"
"Fully support this operation!"
Augustus then said to everyone: "I have heard everyone's cries, and I can also feel your determination. This time we will fight for the Federation, and I officially announce that the Black Glory will launch the first battle in history. All-in-one combat. From now on, open all bans and allow all qualified personnel to participate in the war. Whether it is in the military or civilian use, any team is allowed to mine resources, and the resources mined are all owned by individuals after deducting taxes. Entering the standby state, the unqualified people will all act as logistics. If this operation is necessary, the Hei Yao will personally participate in the battle, and we will fight with our backs. If we fail, we will be benevolent! The Federation will win!"
In an instant, everyone shouted frantically.
"The Federation will win!!!"
Looking at the crowd shouting around, Su Mo was also affected by the atmosphere of the scene, and his mood was a little turbulent.
At this time, the mobile phones in Su Mo and others' pockets vibrated.
They took out their mobile phones one after another, and everyone received different combat information.
Xiao Wen said: "We have been recruited, and we will join the battle with the Third Army."
"I also received the message, but the content of my message is different. It probably means that we can move freely and participate in combat freely."
Sun Duoxiang looked at the message and said.
Su Mo glanced at the message silently, then put away his phone. As expected, he was also recruited, but the specific combat content has not yet been released.
However, the gathering time was given, and we will go to the G4 area (full member) to gather at 8:00 tomorrow morning.
"It's over, I've been recruited too."
Mo Baoke had a sad face, looking like he was going to die.
"Can you be a little promising, as a combatant in the GT department, do you think you've escaped?"
Chen Shan said with a look of contempt.
"Our reserve team ranks so low, normally, shouldn't we be left behind to protect the Hei Yao?"
Mo Baoke still had an unrealistic fluke mentality.
"Please, haven't you listened carefully to the radio? When necessary, the Hei Yao will act as a battleship to go forward and fight. What kind of guards do you need?"
Chen Shan replied helplessly.
"Boss, have you received the message to join the war?"
Sun Duoxiang asked curiously.
"There must be, but the specific information about participating in the war has not come out. But it is estimated that it will be soon. Forget about these things, let's get together tonight."
Su Mo pondered for a while and pointed out that no matter how stupid people are in this operation, they can see that there are more dangers than fortune.
No one knew whether everyone would be able to retreat after the battle, so Su Mo thought about having a meal together.
"good."
Xiao Wen replied in agreement.
"That's it, I'll find a place."
Su Mo nodded and said.
——
Inside an office in District K.
Mai Han looked at the combat command issued, his face was a little distorted.
In the case of full participation in the battle, unfortunately he was also recruited, which means that he also needs to face the swarm.
On the battlefield, the enemy doesn't care who you are.
And according to the information he got, the swarm was extremely powerful this time, and there were quite a few Type IV worms among them.
With his strength, if he collided with him, he would die without a doubt.
But the problem is that he still has no way to refuse the recruitment order, otherwise it will attract the attention of the above.
He completely miscalculated, and he never thought that the random sailing announced by the Black Glory before was just a cover, and the real purpose turned out to be to attack the swarm.
For a while, McHan was in a dilemma.
In Midtown at night, in the private room of an inconspicuous restaurant.
Su Mo, Qian Chengxue, Mo Baoke, Chen Shan, Xiao Wen and others all sat together.
Since there may be a game tomorrow, all the restaurants are full today, and it is basically impossible to book a seat.
That is to say, Su Mo acted quickly enough to find this restaurant of average quality.
Su Mo took a case of beer and put it on the table. He said to everyone, "We may have a battle tomorrow, so everyone should not drink too much tonight, just drink a little to add to the fun."
"Well, no problem."
Xiao Wen nodded in response.
Then everyone opened a bottle of beer one after another.
Qian Chengxue also picked up a bottle of beer, and Su Mo persuaded him in a low voice when he saw it.
"You don't know how to drink, why don't you change?"
"It's okay, it's rare to be happy today."
Qian Chengxue replied with a smile.
"Okay, let's drink less."
Su Mo replied with concern.
"Um."
Qian Chengxue replied softly.
At this time, Chen Shan took the lead in raising his wine glass, and said to everyone: "Everyone will go to the battlefield tomorrow, and no one knows what it will be like in the future, so just don't think about it. It's not in vain if everyone drank this glass of wine together We knew each other once."
"well said."
Su Mo also raised his glass.
"cheers!"
Everyone clinked their glasses of wine together and drank them all in one gulp.
"happy!"
At this time, Mo Baoke still said with a stern face.
"Don't be so sad, don't you still have Master Su Mo? Master Su Mo will definitely protect us on the battlefield, and it is impossible for Master Su Mo to die. We will be fine."
Su Mo patted Mo Baoke's shoulder and said, "What you said is not wrong. If I see it, I will definitely save it. But you'd better protect me so that you don't see me on the battlefield."
"Why?"
Mo Baoke looked puzzled.
"You're stupid, Su Mo must be fighting high-level bugs on the front line of the battle, you go to be cannon fodder."
Chen Shan said with a smile.
"Bah, bah, pretend I didn't say it, don't take Tongyan Wuji seriously"
Mo Baoke quickly comforted himself.
Seeing this, Sun Duoxiang and others burst out laughing.
After several hours, the food on the table was wiped out, and there were beer bottles everywhere.
Although I deliberately refrained from drinking much, I couldn't hold back everyone's interest, and everyone drank more or less.
After greeting each other for a while, everyone went out one after another.
"Boss, let's go."
"Goodbye, Su Mo."
"After going back slowly on the road, take a good rest."
Su Mo waved goodbye to Xiao Wen and the others.
Soon there were only Su Mo and Qian Chengxue left.
Su Mo looked at Qian Chengxue, and saw that her fair face was showing a blush, and her eyes were a little blurred, as if she had drunk too much.
"Are you OK."
"It's fine, don't worry, Su Mo will walk with me."
Qian Chengxue replied with a smile.
"good."
Su Mo nodded.
The two walked towards the upper city, and neither of them spoke for a while.
The ambiance is a bit subtle.
Finally, Su Mo broke the silence with a cough and said.
"If you turn around and go to the battlefield, if possible, lean towards me as much as possible, and I will protect you."
"It's okay. I was assigned to the flank battlefield. The danger level is relatively low. I can do it myself. Actually, I am not worried about myself, but I am a little worried about you, because you are likely to be sent to the main battlefield."
Qian Chengxue took small steps, with her hands behind her back, shook her head and replied.
"That's fine, I'm fine."
After listening to Qian Chengxue's words, Su Mo felt warm in his heart, he stopped and said.
Looking at Su Mo in front of her, Qian Chengxue suddenly smiled and said, "Come with me, I'll take you to a place."
"where?"
Su Mo replied with some doubts.
"You'll know when you come with me."
So Qian Chengxue took Su Mo's hand and ran towards Shangcheng District.
Su Mo, who was being pulled, could clearly feel the warmth of Qian Chengxue's soft hands, and his mind went blank.
This is the first time they officially held hands.
A while later, Su Mo and Qian Chengxue came to the observatory in Shangcheng District.
The entire observatory was empty and very quiet.
"This is my favorite place, because it is not open to the public, so it is very quiet."
Qian Chengxue pulled Su Mo to find a place to sit on the ground.
The top and four walls of the observatory are made of special glass with high light transmission. Standing here is like standing among the stars. You can clearly see the twinkling stars in the starry sky, giving people an immersive feeling.
"very beautiful"
Just when Su Mo was halfway through speaking, he suddenly froze. Because when he saw Qian Chengxue with a ruddy complexion, he turned his head and looked directly at him from a close distance.
He could clearly hear Qian Chengxue's breathing.
For a while, the atmosphere became a little delicate.
"Well, is there something on my face?"
Su Mo asked nervously.
At this time, Qian Chengxue, who seemed to be drinking too much, suddenly asked, "Su Mo, why are you so nice to me?"
"That, that."
Su Mo was also confused by Qian Chengxue's sudden question, and he was at a loss for a while.
"do you love me?"
Qian Chengxue looked at the bewildered Su Mo, took a deep breath, and mustered up the courage to ask. In fact, under normal circumstances, she would not ask him that.
But tomorrow is about to participate in the war of the insect nest, no one knows what the future will look like, maybe they will sacrifice themselves on the battlefield.
In order not to leave any regrets, she asked, for which she drank a little more wine.
In fact, after asking this question, Qian Chengxue felt her heart beating non-stop, and she felt more nervous than Su Mo.
The two just looked at each other quietly under the starry sky.
This time Su Mo didn't hesitate any more, and spoke.
"like!"
Qian Chengxue was very happy when she heard Su Mo's words. She smiled and asked, "Why do you like me?"
Su Mo's head froze for a while? why?
His mind went blank and he didn't know what to say. He was a little flustered for a while, and in a hurry, he subconsciously said.
"Because you look like my mother."
Qian Chengxue was a little dumbfounded when she heard Su Mo's words, how could anyone answer like that.
Su Mo suddenly came back to his senses, he wanted to slap himself a few times, and quickly explained: "That's not the case, I didn't mean that. You listen to my sophistry, no, it's not that you listen to my explanation. It's like this, actually I noticed you at the beginning because you really look like my mother, but after getting in touch with you, everything is different. I really like you from the bottom of my heart, so I think about you good."
Qian Chengxue looked at Su Mo whose brow was sweating anxiously, and burst out laughing uncontrollably.
Seeing Qian Chengxue smile, Su Mo's panic eased a lot.
Then Su Mo mustered up the courage to ask.
"Then do you like me?"
"What do you say?"
Qian Chengxue blinked and replied.
Su Mo had a bitter face, not knowing what to say.
At this moment, Su Mo heard Qian Chengxue's small voice.
"Naturally I like it, fool."
When Su Mo heard it, his heart was beating wildly, and his face showed uncontrollable joy.
Qian Chengxue looked at the overjoyed Su Mo, and asked with a smile, "Since when did you notice me?"
"Ahem, from the time we met in the elevator for the first time, what about you?"
Su Mo asked curiously.
"I've been watching you since you snatched my ship in Star Ring World."
Qian Chengxue seemed to be stuck in memory.
"That was purely accidental."
Su Mo scratched his head and quickly explained.
"I know, it's fine. If it wasn't for that incident, maybe I wouldn't have noticed you. In fact, in the past days, my life was full of grayness and no color. It was your appearance that changed everything. .”
Looking at the stars in the starry sky, Qian Chengxue replied a little touched.
"The past is over, let's look forward and talk about our future and dreams."
Seeing that Qian Chengxue was a little sad, Su Mo quickly changed the subject.
Qian Chengxue thought for a while, and said with a look of anticipation: "My dream is to save enough money to re-establish my own company, and take my sisters back to the sea of stars."
"Well, with me, it will definitely come true, and I will help you."
Su Mo stretched out his hand to hold Qian Chengxue's hand, and replied very solemnly.
Qian Chengxue's eyes were slightly moist, and she leaned on Su Mo's shoulder and replied softly.
"I trust you."
The stars were shining brightly, and the two figures snuggled together quietly.
