"Brother, I have a considerable amount of anti-matter materials and weapons, things you can't buy even with money. As long as you can get me out of here, it's all yours."

"You've got the wrong person."

Su Mo's face twitched uncontrollably.

"If you think that's not enough, I can work for you, do whatever you want."

The man gritted his teeth.

"It's not about the price."

Su Mo was about to vomit blood, explaining incessantly.

Unfortunately, it was no use; they simply wouldn't give up. A sickly young man, constantly coughing, quietly approached Su Mo.

"If you can save me, I can tell you about an ancient relic, filled with unimaginable treasures."

"I'm truly sorry, but you really have the wrong person."

Su Mo's mouth was practically dry from answering.

But the more Su Mo said that, the more they believed he was capable, and the more desperately they sought him out.

They were going crazy in this damned place.

......

On the 27-minute walk back to the cell from workstation number 7, more than fifty people approached him. And that didn't even count the people who couldn't squeeze through.

Some inmates nearly started fights due to the pushing and shoving. If it weren't for the monitoring soldiers and mechanical weapons, they probably would have.

Before long, Su Mo returned to his cell.

Amidst the envious gazes of the other prisoners, he took a hot shower, lay down on his bed, and fell deep in thought.

As the night deepened, Su Mo tossed and turned in bed, his mind racing with various thoughts.

"Brother."

A soft call interrupted Su Mo's thoughts. He turned his head and sighed.

The old man next door, with almost all his teeth gone, hadn't given up and kept calling to him.

"Stop shouting, I don't have the ability to save you."

"Hehe, brother, can you give me something to eat?"

The old man pleaded with a shameless grin.

Hearing this, Su Mo was quite surprised. He picked up an apple from the table and threw it over.

The old man caught the apple and devoured it ecstatically, like a hungry ghost reincarnated.

"Eat slowly. If it's not enough, I have more here."

Su Mo picked up a pear and threw it to him.

"Thank you."

The old man caught it with joy and thanked him profusely.

"What's your name?"

Su Mo turned to look at the old man and asked. Since he couldn't sleep anyway, he might as well chat with the old man.

"Longke, from the Kingdom of Tikalus."

The old man replied while munching away.

"Never heard of it."

Su Mo was a bit curious.

"Of course, you haven't heard of it; it's been destroyed."

Longke didn't hold back and told Su Mo directly. He didn't have anything to worry about.

"What did you do to get in here?"

Su Mo asked curiously.

"Fraud. I defrauded Star Ring City of 300 billion star coins."

Longke crunched the pear core and swallowed it, replying with a look of enjoyment.

"Awesome!"

Su Mo's mouth twitched slightly. He was truly

Maybe he really could use his fists to make Star Ring City recognize his independent status.
