Chapter 1044: Chapter 782: Inventory (Bonus for Alliance Leader Zhao Xiaoxiao) (3 Updates)
Su Mo took a deep breath, his heart pounding; “This time, we really hit the jackpot.”
“Forget about those, head to the front area!”
The Fake Owner · Swallower presented a section of the material zone to Su Mo.
There, massive sealed containers were placed, each bearing dangerous energy block warning signs.
Su Mo immediately understood and flew over, smiling as he asked the Fake Owner · Swallower.
“Are you going to absorb them all? Want to leave some?”
“Leave none!”
The Fake Owner · Swallower refused immediately without thinking.
“Alright then.”
Su Mo felt a pang of heartache.
When Su Mo reached the area, the Fake Owner · Swallower detached from Su Mo’s body and seeped out from the Mecha, floating above the containers.
The entire body once again frantically collided and divided, and in no time, it turned into a nightmarish tumor.
The tumor’s surface appeared covered with agonized, despairing, and wailing faces, giving a chilling sight.
Soon after, eerie tentacles extended out, penetrating the containers one by one.
It began to absorb energy frantically.
Countless blue lights could be seen gathering through the tentacles toward the central tumor.
Su Mo couldn’t help but inhale, the money was gone, this guy absorbed energy like swallowing cash.
It didn’t take long for the absorption to finish. The Fake Owner · Swallower retracted all the tentacles, shrinking and flying towards Su Mo.
Su Mo, enduring the heartache, asked, “Was it satisfying?”
“Not satisfying, not as much as last time, truly a bunch of useless folks, transporting just this little.”
The Fake Owner · Swallower replied discontentedly.
Su Mo’s expression was exceptionally brilliant, this guy even started to disdain these three countries, Su Mo rarely spoke in defense of them.
“Cough, cough, don’t say that, their strength wasn’t even as much as the Galmotos Empire to begin with, then outright got robbed once. Plus, having bought the Blue Whale, they certainly don’t have much money, let’s make do for now, though there aren’t many energy crystal blocks, other material quantities are substantial.”
“Hmph!”
The Fake Owner · Swallower snorted very discontentedly.
“Enough, stop complaining, I took a look, even though the energy blocks here are fewer, there’s roughly half as much as last time, it should be enough. Also, scan the whole warehouse for me and see roughly how much the remaining materials are worth.”
Su Mo asked excitedly, it’s the leftovers that belong to him.
This time, the Fake Owner · Swallower didn’t refuse, although the absorbed energy crystal blocks didn’t meet expectations and it was very unsatisfied, overall it was in a decent mood. So it scanned roughly for Su Mo and gave a quote.
“Approximately 13 billion Star Coins!”
“Great, we’ve struck it rich! Plus, with this Blue Whale, we’re rolling in it!”
Su Mo almost burst out laughing, don’t look at this Blue Whale being paralyzed. Actually, the Fake Owner · Swallower didn’t go too hard, didn’t violently damage the core parts, just need to fix the circuits. And patch up the holes and gaps, and a brand new Blue Whale is born again.
At this moment, Su Mo’s communication device buzzed with Sun Duoxiang’s lowered voice.
“Boss, the Imperial Army is starting to retreat, are we really just letting them go like this? Won’t they come back for trouble later, should we take advantage now to finish them off?”
“It doesn’t matter, the feud is already set. If they want revenge, then let them, we can handle it, but remember what I said: we must stick to principles. Since the deal has been made, as long as the other party doesn’t act suspiciously, we can’t go back on our word. Think about it carefully, if I were this unprincipled, would you still follow me with confidence? Would your people below still follow you with confidence?”
Su Mo said to Sun Duoxiang.
“Yes, yes, Boss is right.”
Sun Duoxiang nodded quickly in agreement.
…
In the starry sky, Gleo and several others boarded the rescue ship with the remaining troops, retreating in disarray.
Hackdy swallowed, looking at Gleo and asked: “What do we do now? We’ve lost the Blue Whale and the cargo, how do we explain this when we return?”
“Prince Hackdy, Count Fake, let me be blunt, we’re all in the same boat now, the cargo is lost, and we’ve ordered a retreat, no one can explain this when we return. And surely, someone will kick us when we’re down and stab us to death.”
Gleo said calmly.
“Lord Gleo, speak freely, there’s no point in hiding anything now.”
Fake replied with gritted teeth.
Gleo raised his head, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.
“Ever heard the saying, it’s better someone else dies than yourself? Eliminate everyone except the close allies!”
“Is this really doable? I’m afraid if we do it, it won’t stay hidden.”
“Usually it wouldn’t work, but now it can. On this voyage, to prevent leaks, communication tools have been cleared, and probably no one has sent information back. As long as those returning are our close allies, we can say whatever we want. It doesn’t lose face to be intercepted by the Federation’s top expert; after all, even the mighty Galmotos Empire failed, we really had no power left to resist.”
“Good, well said, we understand.”
“Remember to be clean!”
…
Meanwhile, Sun Duoxiang’s subordinates had fully occupied the Blue Whale. They were checking every corner to ensure no one was hiding.
Sun Duoxiang, on the other hand, was leading a group cheerfully running to the warehouse.
Seeing the rows of sealed material boxes, he excitedly shouted.
“Wow, kakaka! We’ve struck gold!”
“Stop hollering around.”
At this moment, Su Mo, controlling the Fake V Generation Mecha · Ghost Deformity, came over and ridiculed Sun Duoxiang.
“Boss, with so many materials, we feel we can retire and never work again in this lifetime.”
“Look at your lack of ambition, also why run here, instead of guarding the Shadow.”
Su Mo couldn’t help but ridicule.
“Boss, don’t worry, Zhang Hao is watching over it, there’s nothing happening. And we just captured the Blue Whale, I gotta come up for a material count.”
Sun Duoxiang replied eagerly.
“Count them, and also send someone to repair the damaged circuits of the Blue Whale, this ship will be ours from now on.”
Su Mo instructed Sun Duoxiang.
“Damn, then we have two Level 5 ships, this is the rise of a new era!”
Sun Duoxiang said excitedly.
“Don’t be too pleased yet, the more ships, the higher the maintenance costs.”
Su Mo replied, rubbing his forehead.
“Boss, what are you afraid of, with this Blue Whale and the Shadow escort, we can emulate the Gaojia Republic! Opening our own channel, we can definitely earn big, I used to drool just seeing the Blue Whale, now it’s our turn to hit the jackpot.”
Sun Duoxiang excitedly rambled.
“Haha, you are surely daring, even thinking about stealing Gaojia Republic’s business.”
Su Mo looked Sun Duoxiang up and down; this guy sure got guts, not just ordinary boldness.
