False Court
Chapter 1206 Purge
For a time, the atmosphere at the scene was somewhat stagnant, and everyone was silent.
Su Mo hesitated for a while, then said, "First, clear out all the monsters within the Free Fortress. After this place is cleared, we'll discuss the matter further."
"Okay."
Li Ruiqi nodded in agreement.
...
Two days later, after paying a small price, Su Mo and the others successfully purged all the Blade Heteromorphs within the Free Fortress.
All the corpses of the Blade Heteromorphs were laid out on the ground.
Li Ruiqi and the others were identifying them one by one.
"Are you sure none are missing?"
Su Mo asked cautiously.
Artificial Intelligence·Black Zero said, "There shouldn't be any problems. Although we were driven underground before, we have been monitoring and counting these Blade Heteromorphs using limited equipment. There were a total of 121 survivors. There are 120 here, plus the one you said you brought back to the ship, which makes exactly 121. They have all been wiped out."
"Good, with that worry out of the way, let's discuss the rescue."
Su Mo said to Li Ruiqi, Jialan, and the others.
Immediately, everyone present revealed hopeful expressions in their eyes. They were all very excited, and some even had tears in their eyes.
You have to know that so many companions were captured, but they could only barely survive and had no way to rescue them. Their hearts were also very painful. Now, finally, there was hope.
"Okay."
Li Ruiqi and the others responded excitedly.
"First of all, I would like to ask, how much do you know about these Blade Heteromorphs?"
Su Mo asked very rationally.
Artificial Intelligence·Black Zero said to Su Mo, "We haven't been idle during the time we've been hiding. We've also dissected and studied a large number of Blade Heteromorph corpses. These creatures are very terrifying. They were not naturally evolved at all, but evolved through stealing genes."
"Tell me about it."
Su Mo was also a little curious.
"The genes in these monsters are very mixed. There are all kinds of gene sequences. We found Kijuu, humans, Xenomorphs, Zerg, Heterogeneous species, etc. These gene sequence fragments are obviously stolen. According to our research, the matriarch should be giving the next generation new genes through eating after becoming pregnant. That is, the more and better they eat during pregnancy, the more perverted the next generation will be."
Artificial Intelligence·Black Zero explained.
Su Mo frowned upon hearing this.
"These damned things are not ordinary scourges. Where were our people taken?"
"They should have been captured and kept in their lair. These monsters have high intelligence and a strong sense of captivity. Our people have been treated as food."
Li Ruiqi sighed and said.
"Do you know the specific location?"
"Yes, the underground city where we live actually has several hidden passages leading to the outside. We sent out a lot of people to scout, and at a heavy cost, we confirmed their lair. However, the specific situation inside is not clear, because anyone who got close died. And because we sent out scouts several times, it has also indirectly alerted them, which is why there are still Blade Heteromorphs remaining in the Free Fortress."
Li Ruiqi said to Su Mo with great melancholy.
"I understand. You have done your best. Don't worry, I won't give up on our companions if there is even a glimmer of hope."
Su Mo promised very solemnly.
Hearing this, Jialan and the others said excitedly, "Su Mo, we'll go with you!"
At this time, Captain Carlmon, who was standing aside, said to Su Mo, "Commander Su Mo, these monsters have very strong combat strength. Your friends' mecha performance is too poor. Let us do it."
It wasn't that Carlmon looked down on Li Ruiqi and the others, but their weapons were indeed too poor.
The best weapons were only one or two IV-generation mecha, and even the III-generation mecha *Lie Nie* were pitifully few. Most of them were still II-generation mecha Black Steel.
This was definitely rookie equipment. Going up to fight them would be a waste of life.
Hearing this, Jialan and the others also showed bitter smiles. They couldn't help but look at Carlmon's mecha with envy, and many people said in low voices.
"Their mecha are so advanced. Many of them are IV-generation."
Carlmon also heard the voices of the crowd, and suddenly felt that he had said something wrong. He quickly said.
"Everyone, I don't mean anything else, it's just that your mecha performance is a little worse. In fact, our mecha are not particularly good either, compared to Commander Su Mo's, they are nothing."
"We understand."
Li Ruiqi replied with a wry smile.
At this time, Su Mo said to everyone with some emotion, "Don't worry, everyone. You just missed too many weapon upgrades. After you escape, everyone here will be an elite among the elites after changing their mecha, so don't be discouraged and frustrated."
"Yes, we understand."
Li Ruiqi and the others responded.
"Getting back to the topic, please draw the approximate location of the enemy's lair for me. I'll go scout it out myself."
Su Mo said to everyone formally at this time.
"How can that be?"
Jialan was also stunned and said subconsciously.
Carlmon on the side also quickly said, "Commander Su Mo, this is not appropriate. If something happens to you, how can I explain it to Lord Salile?"
"Don't worry, if I can't even handle the scouting, then it's useless for you to come with me. And at that time, if I can't come back, you really have to consider cutting off your arms to survive and escape quickly."
Su Mo waved his hand and said to everyone.
"Su Mo is right. If he can't handle it even with a V-generation bioweapon mecha, it's meaningless for us to go."
Artificial Intelligence·Black Zero was still very rational.
"Okay."
Jialan and the others finally returned to reason.
Then, Artificial Intelligence·Black Zero projected a virtual star map. This star map was drawn with the Free Fortress as the starting point.
The final destination was marked with a large cross.
"That lair is in this location, about 72.82 million kilometers away from the Free Fortress. This distance is neither close nor far."
Artificial Intelligence·Black Zero introduced to Su Mo.
"Okay, I got it."
Su Mo wrote down the presented star map.
"I have something to remind you. Those damned monsters have a habit of raising monsters. You should pay attention if you encounter monsters along the way. They may be their pets."
Artificial Intelligence·Black Zero suddenly remembered something and instructed Su Mo.
"Okay, I got it."
Su Mo nodded.
...
Not long after, Su Mo drove the V-generation bioweapon mecha, Light of Eternal Sin, alone and left the Free Fortress. He followed the star map given by Artificial Intelligence·Black Zero and slowly flew towards the distant starry sky.
In fact, with that little distance, if Su Mo fully activated the mecha, he could arrive in an instant.
But that kind of behavior was purely courting death.
