Chapter 1 Mokberk's Grudge

Mokberk lectured, his gaze frequently landing on Su Mo.

His shock gradually subsided, replaced by embarrassment and anger. He recalled the past, the embarrassing incidents caused by this guy.

It was because Su Mo stole his mecha that he was scolded bloody by the higher-ups, becoming a national laughingstock.

And this guy, he even led people to snatch his gold mine, causing him heavy losses.

He didn't know how many gold points he had mined less.

Let's not even mention these things for now. This guy also scammed him in Star Ring City, causing him to lend Xiao Wen so much money.

Thinking of this, Mokberk trembled with anger. Now it was all good, this guy had joined the GT department and was assigned to his team. He couldn't help but mutter to himself.

"Hehe, you little rascal, just wait and see how I'll deal with you later."

Su Mo naturally noticed Mokberk's malicious gaze, but he didn't care at all. He would meet soldiers with generals, and water with earth.

After Mokberk finished his simple lecture, he waved his hand in a very bad mood, "Dismissed!"

After saying that, he left with his head held high.

Su Mo watched Mokberk's departing back, stroking his chin in thought. It wasn't surprising that this guy appeared here. After all, this guy's status was originally quite high, and he had also mined so much gold in the Star Ring World, lining his own pockets. As long as he operated a little, it shouldn't be a problem to get a good position. Of course, this had nothing to do with Su Mo.

After being dismissed, Su Mo looked around. Since he had nothing to do, he walked towards the first physical training area.

Before long, he entered a giant training area.

This place was filled with brand-new fitness equipment, some for exercising arms, some for endurance running, in short, everything.

The entire training area was very lively, filled with officers who were shirtless, exposing their strong muscles, all working hard to pump iron and sweat.

Of course, there were also female officers exercising here, and they were not just vases.

You could clearly see female officers easily pulling hundreds of kilograms of weight rings, their arm muscles no less impressive than men.

You could even see several tonnage-level girls.

They easily lifted barbells weighing four or five hundred kilograms.

Su Mo's mouth twitched non-stop as he watched. Although most of these guys had been injected with Type I gene serum, how good did their compatibility have to be to be so strong?

He continued to walk inside, and he could see some more outstanding male officers surrounded by many admiring girls.

Of course, they were admired for a reason, and the equipment they were training with was quite heavy and difficult.

The rules here were simple: the strong were naturally popular, and the weak were despised.

At this moment, Su Mo inadvertently saw the three boys in his dormitory. Although they were not exercising together, they were all in one equipment area.

He saw Zhou Wei and Li Fang both pulling rings, and they were both pulling heavy rings weighing two hundred kilograms!

At this time, Su Mo saw Lin Yixuan, also pulling rings, but the number of rings he was pulling was only one hundred kilograms. In fact, normally this number would be considered very good among civilians, but it should be noted that this was the GT department, and they had all been injected with gene serum.

This score wasn't just not good enough, it was quite embarrassing. But even so, Lin Yixuan was still pulling with great difficulty.

Bean-sized beads of sweat kept flowing down.

It could be seen that he was working very hard to exercise, but unfortunately his talent was what it was.

Some passing officers saw Lin Yixuan pulling rings and ridiculed, "Did you see that? There's a woman over there, playing with a hundred kilograms!"

"Haha, alright, don't say that, is this the first day you've seen him? Let me tell you, that guy's name is Lin Yixuan, he's a well-known loser who got in through the back door. His family is rich."

"Tch, really, why don't the people above care? Isn't there a monthly assessment? Why hasn't this kind of person been eliminated yet?"

"Eliminated? Is your brain broken? Do you know who his big brother is?"

"Who?"

"Lin Ming, a formal alternate member!"

"Lin Ming's big brother?"

The officer who had been full of ridicule suddenly changed his expression one hundred and eighty degrees when he heard the name Lin Ming, looking very respectful.

"Unexpected, right? My reaction was the same as yours the first time I found out that Commander Lin Ming had such a trashy younger brother."

"Forget it, I won't say anymore, I'm leaving."

......

Su Mo couldn't help but shake his head. He felt that this Lin Yixuan was also quite pitiful.

Sometimes, working hard doesn't necessarily bring rich rewards.

.....

The next day, Su Mo went to work at the G department in a good mood.

He had spent the whole day yesterday in the training area. Although he didn't meet Qian Chengxue as expected, Su Mo believed there would always be an opportunity.

In addition, working in the G department wasn't as tiring as he had imagined. Other than being a little less free, everything else was fine.

Just then, Su Mo ran into Zhao Bo.

He saw Zhao Bo walk up to Su Mo with a strange expression and said, "Good morning, Su Mo."

"Good morning."

Su Mo replied naturally.

"That, Officer Su Mo, there's a mission assigned to you."

Zhao Bo said hesitantly. He thought to himself how unlucky he was that this thankless task was assigned to him.

Normally speaking, newcomers who had just joined the GT department wouldn't be assigned anything to do in the first few days unless there was some urgent task. They were mostly allowed to move freely to familiarize themselves with the environment and personnel.

To be assigned a mission on the second day, it was obvious that someone was making things difficult.

"What mission?"

Su Mo was also slightly stunned.

"It's like this, Major Mokberk wants you to go to our team's hangar to inspect the maintenance status of all the mecha, and also write a report."

Zhao Bo said.

This was a very tiring job. The entire eighty-sixth reserve brigade had 52 regular combat personnel, equipped with 51 first-generation Iron Guard mecha, and one second-generation mecha.

To inspect each and every one of them, he would be busy until he was dizzy.

Inspecting was one thing, but having to write a report meant that he shouldn't even think about having a peaceful time after work.

Moreover, even if you seriously finished this job and wrote the report, the higher-ups might lightly say that it wasn't written well and send it back for you to rewrite.

At this time, Su Mo frowned slightly after hearing Zhao Bo's words. He said, "Am I the only one carrying out this mission? Is there no one else to assist me?"

"I'm sorry, no."

Zhao Bo replied regretfully.

Su Mo thoughtfully replied, "I understand."

If there were no accidents, this should be Mokberk's show of force. This guy was really impatient.

"Then I'll go first."

Zhao Bo quickly left.

Su Mo then walked towards their brigade's hangar. His mentality was very good. Since he was asked to inspect, then he would inspect. As for uploading the report, Su Mo didn't plan to write it properly. He would just randomly go to the Black Obsidian's internal online forum and find some material to copy.

Su Mo was sure that with Mokberk's nature, he would definitely send the report back.

So there was no need to take it too seriously.

For the time being, he was his direct superior, and it wouldn't be wise to have a head-on conflict with him.

However, that didn't mean he couldn't counter him. As long as he perfunctorily dealt with it without causing any pain, he would complain if the other party went too far.

If he remembered correctly, the GT department's disciplinary department wasn't just for show.

Of course, Su Mo didn't want to make things too complicated. His main purpose in coming here was to find Qian Chengxue, and he didn't have time to mess around with that fool.

......

------------------------------------------

Black Obsidian, at the entrance of the archives.

A sound of footsteps came, and the guard saluted the person who came.

"General Mai Han!"

"Open the door."

"Sir, what are you going to do?"

"I'm here to check a combat record log."

Mai Han replied casually.

"Reporting to the officer, Lord Oglaws issued a new order not long ago, requiring anyone who wants to review any information in the archives to apply to him."

"Is there a problem with me accessing my own legion's combat logs?"

Mai Han frowned slightly.

"Reporting to the officer, it's not allowed. Please understand. If you really need it, I can apply for you and there will be a reply within 24 hours."

The captain of the guards replied apologetically.

"Then forget it, I just wanted to verify something small."

"Okay."

........

Mai Han turned and left. Before long, he returned to his office.

As a result, he found Gabu already waiting in the office for a long time.

"Sir."

Mai Han immediately closed the office door.

"What's the matter."

"The matter you asked me to investigate has some clues."

Gabu reported respectfully.

"Speak!"

"The brothers of the Second Legion told me that they looted a large number of star stones and various rare metal materials in Dom City, and also seized many weapons and some technical data. But they can't say the specific parameters, after all, they don't recognize them."

"What about the First Legion?"

"The First Legion's gains are even more considerable. They looted a large amount of wealth, super jewelry and minerals, and a huge amount of star stones in the royal capital. They also seized a large number of third-generation mecha, second-generation mecha, and even a light battleship and a medium battleship."

"Nothing else?"

"Yes, but they don't know. The GT department was responsible for attacking the palace in the royal capital. They don't know what good things they robbed. But according to that brother, they must have gotten good things, because the GT department even activated two IV-generation mecha to attack the palace, and the palace eventually collapsed."

Gabu explained.

Hearing this, a flash of light flashed in Mai Han's eyes. He smiled and said to Gabu.

"Well done, this matter ends here. I know what to do. Also, don't let a third person know about the matter I asked you to investigate."

"Don't worry, General."

Gabu replied affirmatively.

"Good!"

Mai Han nodded.

In the Black Obsidian's command room, an operator reported to Li Ruiqi.

"Captain, our sub-light speed flight is about to end."

"Well, switch to high-speed driving mode according to the scheduled plan. Also, turn on all the ship's warning radars to monitor the nearby starry sky, and send over the starry sky data we are currently in."

Li Ruiqi said steadily.

Putemi asked Li Ruiqi with some doubts: "Why do I feel you are so nervous."

Li Ruiqi even said to Putemi: "According to the route, we should now be in the Stone Stream Star Sea. This area belongs to the edge of the abandoned battlefield. It can be said that it is completely out of the radiation area of the Star Ring City. It's not surprising to encounter any monsters here. According to the information provided by the Star Ring City, if we are lucky enough, we may even run into V-type monsters. You know what the concept of V-type monsters is. They are the existence that can destroy a star with their own power, and it's not too careful."

After Putemi finished listening, he took a deep breath.

"It's too dangerous, if possible, speed up and leave here."

Li Ruiqi rejected Putemi's suggestion.

"Why."

"There are a large number of fragmented meteorites in this starry sky, and the sub-light speed is too fast. If you're not careful, you will directly hit the meteorite group. Small volumes are okay, but large ones are very deadly. The energy cover may not be able to withstand it. This starry sky can probably only be driven out at high speed. But fortunately, this starry sky is very small, and if all goes well, it can be driven out in a month. Well, there's no use in worrying too much. If you really run into it, it's fate."

"Understood."

Putemi nodded.

In the dark starry sky, in a floating meteorite belt.

A giant ship tens of kilometers long slowly appeared, with a black skull pattern painted on its dark hull, and rows of launch ports densely distributed on its surface. At the head of its bow was a one-kilometer-long dark main gun, which was chilling.

Around it were small attack ships converted from transport ships,

Large beam cannons and missile launch ports were added to their hulls.

At this time, the landing exits at the bottom of the giant mothership opened, and a number of i-generation standard mecha Iron Slaves, and a small number of different styles of second-generation mecha flew out.

At the same time, some small modified attack ships began to break away from the fleet.

They formed a new fleet and began to drive out of the meteorite belt and fly towards the distant starry sky.

.....

Inside the g12 area hangar.

Su Mo was holding a notebook, checking the maintenance status of the mecha one by one.

Although it was a hard job, he didn't reject it at all, because he still liked mecha very much.

Su Mo detected more than a dozen Iron Guards, and he couldn't help but nodded. The mechanics of this GT department maintained them really well.

Each one was like new.

At this time, Su Mo keenly sensed that someone seemed to be observing him.

Su Mo turned his head to look without showing any signs, and as a result, he saw Mokberk's figure in the distance. This guy was sneakily peeking here.

He smiled dumbly. This guy was really interesting.

Forget it, never mind him, Su Mo continued to test.

On the other side, Mokberk secretly observed Su Mo, and several subordinates next to him asked in confusion.

"Sir, why have you been staring at that newcomer? Did he offend you? If so, we can just deal with him."

"Can you use your brain a little? Do you think that guy is easy to bully! If we are caught and complained about, how will I survive? Listen to me, we have to deal with him openly, understand?"

Mokberk directly slapped the head of the subordinate next to him.

"Understood, understood, but sir, how can we be open and aboveboard?"

"Stupid, let him do all the dirty and tiring work. Also, don't allow anyone to help him. Hehe, I'll see how long he can last."

Mokberk said triumphantly.

"Sir, you are mighty!"

The subordinates said with smiles on their faces.

At this moment, a piercing alarm suddenly sounded in the hangar.

"Alarm, emergency notice, the GT department is entering second-level combat readiness......"

Su Mo, who was inspecting the mecha, was also stunned. What was going on? He had only joined the GT department for two days and he had already encountered a state of combat readiness. Su Mo didn't know whether to say he was lucky or unlucky.

At this time, all the GT department's reserve members were mobilized.

Everyone put down what they were doing and rushed to the hangar as soon as possible, running towards their mecha.

Suddenly, the entire g12 area boiled over.

.....

In the Black Obsidian's command room, the radar system kept making piercing alarm sounds.

Red dots were displayed on the scanning device.

The operator reported: "Three small unidentified attack ships and more than three hundred mecha have been scanned. Most of them are the first-generation standard mecha Iron Slave and the second-generation standard mecha Crimson Guard. The current detected danger value is low."

"Activate the optical device to capture images."

"Yes!"

The operator immediately carried out complex operations.

Soon, images appeared.

In the starry sky, Iron Slaves were scattered and floating, and each Iron Slave was painted with a scarlet skull with red paint. The small attack ships that were captured also had ugly skull marks painted on them.

"What is this? Ships from other civilizations?"

Putemi asked with a frown.

"I don't know, but judging from the patterns painted on their appearance, they are definitely not good goods. Send them a communication message, warning them not to get any closer, otherwise don't blame us for being rude and destroying them."

Li Ruiqi replied very certainly.

"Yes, I am sending a message, trying to establish a communication request."

The operator immediately operated.

Unfortunately, all the messages were like a stone sinking into the sea without any response.

On the contrary, the other party kept accelerating closer.

"Reporting, the other party did not respond in any way, but is accelerating towards us."

The operator immediately reported.

"I don't understand, what's wrong with these trash fish? With this little force, they dare to come towards us. Is this provocation or are they looking for death?"

Putemi asked puzzled.

"It's normal to look for death. Who knows whether they are humans or monsters. You saw what happened on Batak Planet. The surviving people, do you say they are humans or monsters."

Li Ruiqi ridiculed.

"That's true, what should we do next? Use the Black Obsidian's ship weapons to destroy them all in one breath?"

"It's too expensive, too extravagant, and it's very unwise to waste our ammunition on this trash. Let the combat troops below respond. Although there may be some casualties, how can the troops become elites if they don't pull them out to fight?"

Li Ruiqi considered for a while, and finally said.

"Feasible, then issue the order."

Putemi also thought it was pretty good.

......

Soon, the Black Obsidian sounded an emergency broadcast.

"Temporary notice, the Black Obsidian is entering second-level combat readiness, and will temporarily enter second-level control. Please don't panic......"

g12 area hangar.

Mokberk walked over in his second-generation mecha Black Steel.

Su Mo and others were all in the first-generation Iron Guard mecha.

Mokberk gave a lecture: "I just received a temporary combat mission, to defeat the invading enemy."

"Understood!"

Everyone responded.

"I'll briefly explain a few words. At the start of the battle, everyone must obey orders. It is absolutely not allowed to engage in any personal heroism, that is a very stupid behavior."

Mokberk's lecture did not forget to remind Su Mo.

It wasn't that Mokberk was doing it for Su Mo's good, but he was afraid that Su Mo would mislead his subordinates. In this day and age, if the subordinates suffered heavy casualties, he, the captain, would be held accountable, and it would be easy to become a lone commander.

"Yes!"

"Departure!"

Mokberk gave the order with a drumming heart. In fact, he himself was very nervous.

He was already cursing in his heart, how could he be so unlucky that he would be drawn when there were so many reserve units. It was all the bad luck brought by that prickly head, bah!

After a while, Su Mo drove the Iron Guard and followed Mokberk out of the Black Obsidian.

Appearing in the vast starry sky.

Mokberk began to command: "Everyone, take five people as a team and divide into ten teams. The lieutenants of each team serve as the team leaders, and the new members form a team by themselves, with Lieutenant Su Mo as the team leader."

"Understood."

Su Mo responded.

......

In the k3 combat area.

Mai Han, piloting the III-generation mecha Shatterer, led a group of elite subordinates to the exit of the sliding boarding runway.

An officer in charge of managing the departing personnel saluted Mai Han in surprise.

"General Mai Han, are you also going to war?"

You should know that this was just an encounter with a low level of danger, and it was normally not necessary for a general of Mai Han's level to participate in the battle.

"Well, it's a good opportunity to train the troops. I'm watching from the side to prevent accidents."

Mai Han responded in a deep voice.

"What General Mai Han said is true. I will open the departure channel for you."

......

In the Black Obsidian's cockpit, the operator reported: "Reporting, the target enemy has mixed into a rubble area in front of us, and has not moved forward. It seems that they are preparing to use the rubble as cover,"

"What is the current number of people going to war."

Li Ruiqi asked lightly.

"The First Legion has dispatched 100 mecha formations, of which 5 are second-generation mecha. The Second Legion has dispatched 100 mecha formations, of which 3 are second-generation mecha. The G department has dispatched 300 reserve troops, of which 10 are second-generation mecha. In addition, General Mai Han of the Third Legion also led a team of mecha formations to war, with a total of 100 mecha formations, of which 5 are second-generation, one is third-generation, and other arms have not moved. From the perspective of strength, we completely crush the other party."

The operator reported specific statistics.

"Order the expeditionary forces to advance and destroy them!"

Li Ruiqi said.

"Is it a bit too much to fight in a rubble belt group."

"Execute the order!"

"Yes!"

Li Ruiqi issued the order in a deep voice. Of course, he knew that fighting in the rubble group was definitely detrimental to his side, but who could guarantee that every battle in the future would be beneficial to him?

In the starry sky, a combat mission popped up on Su Mo's operation screen.

Combat mission one, go to coordinates 2732, 712, 73 rubble group.

Combat mission two, eliminate the enemy mecha and ships hiding inside.

Su Mo looked at the combat mission that appeared, and he also felt vaguely excited. This should be considered his first formal space battle.

Of course, it would be better if there wasn't that guy who kept BBing in the communication channel.

At this time, Mokberk kept commanding: "Everyone is not allowed to disperse, the distance between each team must not exceed 5 kilometers, so that we can ensure that we can support each other as soon as possible. At the same time, we can also ensure that we can use the wolf pack tactics to eliminate the enemy forces...."

......

Su Mo roughly summarized some of Mokberk's commanding intentions, which was to gather together and eliminate the enemy little by little.

Theoretically, it was pretty good, both safe and able to minimize losses. However, the effect of actual operation was uncertain.

But now he could only try it.

In the k3 combat area.

Mai Han, piloting the III-generation mecha Shatterer, led a group of elite subordinates to the exit of the sliding boarding runway.

An officer in charge of managing the departing personnel saluted Mai Han in surprise.
