False Court

Chapter 1101 Top Secret

“Two what?”

Su Mo asked, his eyes lighting up.

“Nothing, I misspoke.”

Nan Qi shook his head like a rattle drum.

“Tch, I clearly heard you. You’re not being a good friend, not trusting me at all? Saying we’re good brothers? Tch!”

Su Mo replied with a look of disdain.

Commander Nan Qi's expression changed for a moment, then he lowered his voice and said to Su Mo, "Alright, I'll tell you. The First Cradle is manufacturing two new generation VI bio-mechanical armors. This is top secret, absolutely confidential. Don't let it out, or you'll lose your head."

Nan Qi made a gesture across his neck at the end of his sentence.

Su Mo looked speechless and said to Nan Qi, "Is it that serious?"

“What do you mean, ‘not serious’? Generation VI mechas are top-secret information. Each one is a powerful weapon, a bargaining chip that can sway the outcome of the race war. The main reason the Second Cradle was attacked was because most of the defending forces were assigned to the First Cradle. Even the establishment of the Star Gate isn't as important as the First Cradle. If our home base is stolen, we'll really be in trouble."

"You could say that the only one who can truly act freely is Lord Icaroia, the city lord. But in a sense, Lord Icaroia is also very busy. She has more responsibilities, such as overall planning and deterring other race leaders. Didn't you see that when such a big thing happened, Lord Icaroia only said a few words before rushing back? Ah, I forgot, you were unconscious at the time and didn't know anything.”

Nan Qi said sincerely to Su Mo.

"No, the way you put it, it feels like we're in a very bad situation, as if we're walking on thin ice."

"It's exactly like that. I'm telling you, countless enemies are watching us in the dark. Let me secretly reveal something to you: do you remember the attack on the Second Cradle?"

Nan Qi explained to Su Mo.

"I remember, it was terrible."

"Actually, the main person in charge of the Second Cradle at the time was Xia Wei'ya, but she was just lying low and not taking action."

"Why?"

"Because Xia Wei'ya is smart enough. At the time, there was a terrifying being secretly watching the Second Cradle. If Xia Wei'ya had taken action and exposed herself, the other party would have made a move as well."

"I see, what a pain."

Su Mo replied with a headache.

"Brother, don't get a headache. I have good news for you."

Commander Nan Qi said with a smile.

"What is it?"

Su Mo looked at Nan Qi suspiciously. Had this guy really changed his ways?

Commander Nan Qi patted his chest and said to Su Mo, "You have been officially nominated for the Royal Knights reserve list. As long as you pass the assessment, you will have the opportunity to become a member of the Royal Knights. I, your brother, used all my strength and lowered my old face to get this for you."

Of course, the truth was not as he said. Nan Qi had intended to nominate Su Mo for the Royal Knights, but when he went to the office to submit the information, the staff actually told him that Su Mo was already on the nomination list.

Nan Qi was depressed, but it didn't matter. No matter who nominated him, he would just take the credit.

"I thought it was something important."

After listening, Su Mo lost all interest. Any expectations he had were gone.

"Oh, brother, you don't know how many people are fighting tooth and nail to get into the Royal Knights. If I hadn't lowered my face and begged everyone, you wouldn't have even been nominated."

Commander Nan Qi said with a pained expression.

"Okay, nominate me then. Actually, I don't think this position is anything special. I feel like the Royal Knights position is inherently a job for hard labor. It's like wherever there's danger, they rush there."

Su Mo said sincerely.

"Uh, rights and obligations are always equal, but to be honest, I also think this position is a bit dangerous."

Commander Nan Qi nodded, somewhat agreeing.

"Then why are you pushing me into the fire pit by nominating me?"

Su Mo complained unhappily.

"Don't think like that. In the end, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages. Look what I brought you."

Nan Qi became even more embarrassed and quickly took out a special box, placing it on Su Mo's bedside table.

Su Mo was also puzzled when he saw the box and replied curiously.

"A gift for me?"

"What are you talking about, a gift between us? This box contains the Negating Divinity Fragment that you left on the Scorching Sun Wings."

Nan Qi said to Su Mo with a smile.

"Damn, isn't that mine?"

Su Mo couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"Brother, although the thing is yours, you can't think like that. This thing was almost confiscated by the City of Star Ring! After all, the thing was on the Scorching Sun Wings. Who knows if it was yours or Rogud's? And if the City of Star Ring confiscated it, where would you go to ask for it back? I spared no effort to offend many people to keep it for you. You need to know how precious this thing is. So many people wanted to take it and give it to Lord Icaroia as a gift."

Commander Nan Qi said anxiously.

"He's right. The City of Star Ring is sparing no effort to collect Negating Divinity Fragments. It probably took a lot of effort for this fragment to return to your hands."

The deep voice of the Fabricator · Devourer echoed in Su Mo's mind.

"Okay, thanks."

Su Mo replied awkwardly when he heard what the Fabricator · Devourer said.

Su Mo didn't know why, but he always felt that something was strange. Could it be that this guy had suddenly become too nice, making him unable to adapt?

"By the way, I also found some medicine inside the Scorching Sun Wings mecha. It should be yours too, right? I brought it all over."

Seeing that Su Mo appreciated his gesture, Nan Qi immediately took out a few bottles of medicine from his pocket and placed them beside him with a smile.

"It's mine."

Su Mo nodded.

"Brother, you must take care of your body. Your future is limitless."

Commander Nan Qi said from the bottom of his heart. Actually, he originally thought that Su Mo was so severely infected that he was definitely dead!

However, he didn't expect that it would really be as Lord Icaroia had predicted, that he wouldn't die.

Lord Icaroia was truly as wise as a god.

"Alright, I know."

Su Mo replied calmly.

"By the way, I have more good news to tell you."

Commander Nan Qi said with a smile.

"Can't you just say it all at once?"

Su Mo couldn't help but roll his eyes. Moreover, he didn't expect that there would really be any good news. The good news that this guy had said earlier was useless.

At this moment, Commander Nan Qi quickly took out a very delicate box and slowly opened it in front of Su Mo.

A brilliant Star Ring badge came into view.

"This is?"

Su Mo asked in surprise.
