Chapter 1 Inside the Star Ring

Inside the Star Ring, in an extremely hidden valley, Su Mo and his group of five gathered.

Sun Duo Xiang and the other two stroked Su Mo's Black Steel Envoy, drooling.

"Wow! Boss, your mecha is awesome! After seeing yours, that Wang Feng's mecha looks like trash! There's no comparison!"

At this moment, the cockpit opened, and Su Mo, without wasting words, directly threw a set of second-generation mechanical armor to Sun Duo Xiang and the others.

"Catch!"

Sun Duo Xiang and the others subconsciously caught them. When they looked at what they caught, they were so excited that they were incoherent.

"Second-generation mechanical armor! Boss, is this for us?"

You have to know that this kind of mechanical armor is generally equipped for the masters. Noobs like them don't even have the qualifications to touch it. They can only watch it in videos and live broadcasts. They never thought that they would be able to touch it one day. Happiness came too suddenly.

"Of course, it's for you to wear. Do you want to hold it and admire it?"

Su Mo replied with a look of contempt.

Lan Xi, after putting on Su Mo's original set of second-generation Tide mechanical armor, also had an excited expression on her face.

She had never used such good equipment before.

"Big brother, you're too good to us."

Sun Duo Xiang hugged the equipment, deeply moved, and rubbed it hard.

"..."

"Stop talking nonsense, put it on quickly!"

Su Mo was speechless and urged.

"No problem! We'll put it on right away."

Sun Duo Xiang changed into the equipment with a smile. Instantly, the original ragtag team was upgraded to an ace elite team.

Su Mo looked into the depths of the valley and took a long breath. This wasteland reclamation would probably be very difficult. He wasn't sure, but reason told him that he had to go this way, because his Fire Seed energy bar was full, and he urgently needed a genetic potion.

Not long after, Su Mo and his group of five approached the outer edge of the central base in the valley. Because the Black Steel Envoy made too much noise, he deliberately stopped at a hidden spot on the periphery.

The five of them lay prone in the bushes, first observing the situation of the base to avoid alerting the enemy.

"There are many damaged protective power grids on the outermost periphery. Judging from visual inspection, they should be out of power. But generally, for this kind of base, there may be hidden trigger mines on the periphery," Lan Xi said in a low voice, expressing her opinion.

"That doesn't matter, just go straight in," Su Mo replied calmly.

"Boss, the number of Type II common mutant creatures, Synthetic Beasts, is not ordinary."

Sun Duo Xiang counted a little, and just the ones he could see now numbered at least seventy or eighty, ranging in size from six to nine meters, and they were all Type II. What made people feel the most creepy was that these Synthetic Beasts were all glowing green. This was not a good sign, as it meant that the radiation value on the monsters was off the charts.

The second-generation mechanical armor they were wearing kept prompting that the radiation was exceeding the standard, and they should stay as far away as possible.

"So many, what do we do? If they find us, they'll tear us apart," Zhang Hao said, his scalp tingling.

At this time, Su Mo calmly said, "Then kill them."

Sun Duo Xiang and the other three looked at Su Mo in astonishment.

"Boss, you're not kidding, are you? This isn't just one or two. It's not that I don't believe in you. You're always the strongest in my heart, but even a hero can't fight against so many!"

"I never said that we had to kill them all at once!"

Although Su Mo was very confident in his strength, that didn't mean he would be brain-dead enough to think that he could take on so many Type II monsters at the same time. When the number reached a certain level, the degree of threat would undergo a qualitative change.

"Ah, then what's your plan, Boss?"

Sun Duo Xiang and the others all stared at Su Mo curiously.

Su Mo, on the other hand, stared straight at Sun Duo Xiang, making Sun Duo Xiang feel uneasy. He touched the corner of his mouth, made sure there was nothing on it, and asked awkwardly, "What are you doing, Boss?"

"I'm sorry to trouble you. You'll be the bait. Help me lure the monsters out, but not too many at once," Su Mo said very seriously.

Sun Duo Xiang's face turned green, and he immediately put on a mournful face.

"Boss, I can't do it!"

"You run faster than Zhang Hao and the others, and with the second-generation mechanical armor assisting you, you should be able to trigger the monsters while maintaining the maximum distance. It shouldn't be a problem to lure the monsters outside," Su Mo calculated a little and thought it should work, as long as Sun Duo Xiang didn't make any major mistakes, like falling.

"Since the Boss has said so, then I'll risk it!"

Sun Duo Xiang's expression changed for a while. Although he was terrified, he couldn't back down now. Since Su Mo was willing to bring them along, then they had to play their due role and couldn't completely hold him back.

"Then it's settled. I'll go get the mecha!"

Su Mo retreated carefully.

After a while, Sun Duo Xiang walked towards the main entrance of the base. He walked extremely slowly, for fear of attracting too many monsters at once, which would be disastrous if they were wiped out.

Lan Xi and the other three hid on the other side, nervously watching Sun Duo Xiang lure the monsters.

As he got closer to the base, Sun Duo Xiang became more and more nervous, and his pace became slower and slower.

Unfortunately, when Sun Duo Xiang reached the gate, those Synthetic Beasts in the distance didn't react at all.

Sun Duo Xiang's heart, which was hanging in his throat, relaxed a little. These monsters seemed to have terrible eyesight. It wasn't a big deal. So, he took a big step forward boldly!

Swish!

The Synthetic Beasts, as if their tails had been stepped on, all turned to look at Sun Duo Xiang.

"Mommy!"

Sun Duo Xiang swallowed hard, turned around, and ran wildly.

In an instant, four Type II common-grade mutant monsters/Synthetic Beasts rushed up with incredible speed. They were as fast as cheetahs.

Sun Duo Xiang glanced back as he ran, and his face darkened.

No one expected these guys to be so fast.

Lan Xi's expression changed slightly and she said, "Crap, they're so fast!"

"Big brother! Help!"

In just over ten seconds, after Sun Duo Xiang ran more than two hundred meters, the four Synthetic Beasts caught up.

Their sharp claws swiped directly at Sun Duo Xiang's head.

Sun Duo Xiang felt extremely dangerous and narrowly avoided the attack with a lazy donkey roll.

However, when he got up, he saw disgusting fleshy tumor heads appearing in front of him, their creepy eyeballs staring at him.

"It's over!"

Sun Duo Xiang was about to cry. This was an inauspicious start! He had originally planned to lure them at least three or four hundred meters away.

Unsurprisingly, the leading Synthetic Beast opened its bloody mouth and bit down on Sun Duo Xiang.

Suddenly, a sound of air being torn apart came.

Clang!

A chain gun accurately pierced through the mouth of the Synthetic Beast. Then, with a flick of the chain at the end of the chain gun, the Synthetic Beast that had been pierced was swept out like a meteor, sending all the Synthetic Beasts surrounding Sun Duo Xiang flying.
