“Alright, you don't need to be so deliberately evasive, do you? You probably want me to take on the task you're assigning, right?”

Su Mo said to Luo Yue bluntly.

“Yes, yes, but I also know that Captain Su Mo, you can completely choose a more qualified liaison officer. After all, they offer better resources...”

Luo Yue said nervously, wringing her small hands.

“I can agree to take your task.”

Su Mo surprisingly agreed.

“Really?”

Luo Yue looked like she had won the lottery, hardly daring to believe it.

“Of course, I have a condition, which is that you must help me keep an eye on the Federation. If there are any important Federation-related tasks, you need to tell me about them.”

Su Mo said to Luo Yue.

“Okay, okay, no problem.”

Luo Yue nodded quickly in agreement.

“To be honest, I'm quite curious about how badly you're doing. That Delaire is so openly digging into your resources, and you don't react at all.”

Su Mo looked at Luo Yue with increasing curiosity.

“That Sister Li is one of the top aces in our task dispatch room. She has the backing of the Mechanical Empire and countless resources in her hands. She's always been number one in the dispatch room's performance. How would I dare offend her?”

“Then which country do you have backing you? Surely your own country would support you, so you wouldn't have to be doing so badly.”

“I'm from the Second Cradle — the Kingdom of Madun. Our country's strength is inherently weak, and we're at the bottom of the barrel among the seven countries in the Second Cradle. Also, I passed the dispatcher exam on my own; I didn't get any support.”

Luo Yue explained awkwardly.

“I didn't realize you were such a high achiever!”

Su Mo looked at Luo Yue in surprise. In this day and age, someone passing the exam based on their own ability is practically a rare animal.

“My main study was information gathering and organization. I was first in the written test. If you have any questions about information, you can ask me. Also, as a dispatcher, I can use the Star Ring City's central information system and know a lot. My professional skills are quite good in this regard,”

Luo Yue said quickly.

“Alright, then let me ask you, do you know about the Palla Fruit?”

Su Mo asked tentatively, his eyes slightly shifting.

“I know about the Palla Fruit. It's a very high-level fruit, a type of SSS-level controlled drug. Three of them have been produced in history, all from extremely dangerous areas on Ceres. It is said that the areas where these fruits are found have Type VI creatures active. As long as you find a place with Type VI creature activity, you have a high probability of finding one.”

Luo Yue replied very quickly.

After hearing this, Su Mo's expression turned a little ugly.

“Did I say something wrong?”

Luo Yue's heart couldn't help but rise again.

“It's nothing, let's eat.”

Su Mo ate while thinking.

......

Not long after, Su Mo and Luo Yue finished breakfast.

Seeing that Luo Yue was still following him, Su Mo asked, “I saw that Sister Li seemed very busy. Aren't you busy?”

“I'm not busy. Let me be your guide. I can take you to see the City of Radiance.”

Luo Yue waved her hand quickly, thinking that there was no use in going back to work because the tasks that could be released had already been released. No one would do the tasks that couldn't be released. Su Mo was her only resource, so she might as well consolidate their relationship.

“Alright.”

Su Mo nodded in agreement.

Luo Yue began to introduce Su Mo to the city.

“Actually, if you look closely, the entire City of Radiance is modeled after Star Ring City. This city can even be considered a beggar's version of Star Ring City. Don't feel like this city is not that great. In fact, once this city is built, as long as a lot of manpower and resources are invested, plus the accumulation of time, maybe this city can really rise up like Star Ring City.”

“Yeah.”

“The City of Radiance is also carrying an unusually abundant force this time. Three official members of the First Legion Royal Order have arrived, along with the Royal Order's direct subordinate troops, as well as the newly formed Sixth Legion, Seventh Legion, Eighth Legion, and Ninth Legion.”

Luo Yue rattled off the names like treasures.

“Yeah.”

Su Mo nodded in response.

“And there's a little secret.”

Luo Yue said quickly to Su Mo.

“What secret?”

Su Mo asked curiously.

“Do you know why three members of the Royal Order came this time? That's because this City of Radiance construction operation has set up a huge amount of rewards. Those who do well can get a lot of merits. This time, Master Goli has specially opened up high-level exchange channels. As long as you have enough merits, you can exchange for the Future Envoy, Thor's Spear... from Star Ring City.”

Luo Yue slowly told Su Mo the information.

Hearing this, Su Mo's eyelids twitched, and he raised his hand to interrupt Luo Yue.

“You said Thor's Spear can also be exchanged?”

“Yes, that's right.”

Luo Yue nodded quickly.

“How many merits does that thing cost?”

Su Mo asked directly.

“It seems to be 200 million merits. What's wrong?”

Luo Yue paused for a moment, then replied very definitely, which showed how good her memory was.

“It's nothing. Keep talking.”

Su Mo replied in a low voice.

......

The next day, Su Mo was lying in bed browsing the Star Ring Forum.

Just then, a notification popped up on Su Mo's wristband.

“Dear Captain Su Mo, please arrive at Conference Room No. 1 in the City Lord's Mansion before 9:00 AM to attend a high-ranking officer meeting. If you are unable to participate due to special circumstances, please provide feedback in a timely manner.”

After seeing this message, Su Mo immediately got up and washed up.

Not long after, Su Mo arrived at the corridor outside the conference room.

Although the entire corridor's walls and floor were made of cold, gray metal, there were some green potted plants along the way.

It didn't look so lifeless.

“Sir.”

Along the way, the officers who saw Su Mo saluted solemnly.

“Yeah.”

Su Mo nodded slightly.

Just then, a familiar voice sounded.

“Sir.”

Su Mo couldn't help but turn his head and glanced over. It was Heath who was greeting him. At this time, Heath's expression was also a little unnatural. After all, they were both from the Twelve Civilizations and joined the army at the same time, but their positions were now far apart. Heath also felt a lot of pressure.

It should be known that the Gomoto Empire was competing with the Federation.

“Yeah.”

Su Mo nodded in response.

At this time, a muffled sound of footsteps rang out, and Herbert walked over sternly from behind. All the officers participating in the meeting along the way respectfully greeted him.

“Sir.”

Herbert nodded slightly in response.

Seeing this, Su Mo also stood up straight and greeted him as he passed by, “Sir.”

However, Herbert just glanced at Su Mo and walked past him coldly.

Su Mo was also slightly stunned. Did he not see him?

Thinking of this, Su Mo scratched his head, but he didn't take it to heart. Then he walked towards the conference room.

Entering the conference room, he saw that Goli was already standing on the council stage.

Everyone quickly took their seats.
