Chapter 1 The Long-Awaited Return

"I didn't go back. I've been waiting for the materials. I just got them a few days ago, so I immediately prepared to return."

"Materials? Could it be the materials for my wing?"

Su Mo asked, his eyes lighting up.

"Yes, once I get back, I can start working on it and send it to you soon."

Ola said to Su Mo easily.

"Thank you so much."

"There's nothing to thank me for. I should be the one apologizing for delaying you for so long."

"It's okay."

Su Mo smiled and replied.

"Mr. Su Mo, I have something to do, so I'll go ahead. Let's chat again when we have the chance."

Ola then said to Su Mo.

"Okay."

Su Mo nodded and continued to follow Chestnut to his room.

Soon, Su Mo entered his exclusive room. He closed the door, went straight to the bed, and sighed.

"Finally, I can relax!"

At this moment, the broadcast sounded.

"Dear passengers, the Fenglik is about to set sail. We wish you a pleasant journey..."

Lying on the bed, Su Mo could feel slight vibrations. If there were no accidents, the ship should have set sail. Thinking about going home,

Su Mo was filled with emotion.

"I've been out for so long. I'm finally going back. I can take a good rest along the way and don't have to be so tense."

"Yes, normally there shouldn't be any problems. When I boarded the ship, I took a quick look. Not only are the passengers on this ship either rich or powerful, but there are also many officers from Star Ring City, and each of them is quite strong."

Creator Devourer replied in a low voice.

"Yeah."

......

Seven days later.

Su Mo was wearing shorts, leisurely lying on a man-made beach chair, enjoying the artificial sea breeze and basking in the artificial sun.

Next to the table were cool drinks and a rich selection of fruits.

Su Mo occasionally picked up a drink and took a sip, feeling cool and refreshed.

He silently said to Creator Devourer, "I've never been so relaxed. This feeling of lying flat is really great."

"That's only if you have the capital to lie flat. I guess you haven't been to the lower decks. They're all calculated by seats and you have to sit for almost a month."

"Uh..."

Su Mo was a little embarrassed.

Just then, a virtual image suddenly popped up in front of everyone.

A woman with long pink hair, wearing a plain cyan dress, a snow-white face, and clear, watery eyes, with a refined and ethereal temperament, appeared in front of everyone. She bowed deeply to everyone.

"Excuse me for disturbing you all. Let me introduce myself. I am Miraya Alik. Maybe many of you don't know me. I'm sorry to take up a few minutes of your time. I would like to apologize to everyone here first. I'm sorry!"

"It's Miraya!"

"It's really Miraya!"

......

Suddenly, many people around were boiling and talking about it.

Su Mo was also quite surprised. In fact, he also knew this woman named Miraya.

She is one of the top singers in the Star Ring Forum and is loved by people from all countries.

She has incredibly terrifying popularity.

Of course, Su Mo himself wasn't very interested in this aspect, but basically anyone who frequents the Star Ring Forum must have heard of her more or less.

"I believe everyone should be very clear that with the progress of the times and technology, the gap between the various classes is gradually widening, and the bottom class is becoming increasingly difficult to move forward, struggling on the basic line of survival. But no matter what, they are also our companions. We can't watch them struggle there and abandon them. For our companions, I boldly launch a charity appeal. I hope you can all actively participate. Miraya thanks you all here."

.....

After listening, Su Mo was also extremely surprised. He didn't expect Miraya to be raising donations?

And it's for the bottom class?

Thinking of this, Su Mo sincerely admired her.

You have to know that no one really does charity in this era. If she really does, it will definitely have epoch-making significance.

Creator Devourer asked Su Mo in a low voice.

"Are you going to participate?"

"Participate, why not? Her original intention is so good. Even if I don't have money, I can still show my support."

Su Mo said frankly to Creator Devourer. These words were definitely from the bottom of his heart. After talking with Lin Min last time, he was deeply moved.

"Do you look like you don't have money?"

Creator Devourer replied strangely.

"You don't know how poor I am?"

Su Mo replied helplessly.

Just then, Su Mo's electronic wristband vibrated and a message popped up.

"Dear Colonel Su Mo, the famous singer Miraya will hold a charity gala at the Paradise Ballroom at 6 p.m. We cordially invite you to attend..."

Su Mo looked at the message, stroked his chin, and was quite emotional. This Miraya has quite a bit of influence.

The captain of the Fenglik must be risking offending guests to help her precisely invite all the high-ranking officers and nobles.

He felt that tonight's banquet should be very lively.

Then Su Mo got up and stretched. He had been lying down for several days and his bones were about to fall apart. It was time to move around.

Anyway, there was nothing to do, so he might as well go and take a look.

......

In the evening, Su Mo changed into an inconspicuous casual outfit and walked towards the Paradise Ballroom.

Along the way, Su Mo saw many nobles from various countries dressed in formal attire attending the banquet.

"This time, Miss Miraya is holding a charity banquet in person. We have to show our support."

"That's right. I just didn't expect Miss Miraya to be on the ship. This is really an unexpected surprise. How much are you planning to donate this time?"

"Uh, let's do what we can. I plan to donate tens of thousands of Star Coins."

"I'm planning to do the same. There are too many places to spend money these days. But I heard that many big figures will come to participate, maybe Miss Miraya can still raise enough money."

......

Su Mo stroked his chin and pondered for a while. He had a feeling that today's charity donation wouldn't be very good, but it wouldn't be too bad either.

The main reason is that most people are very rational.

Soon, Su Mo arrived at the entrance to the venue.

Although it was invitation-only, there were no restrictions on entering or leaving, only security checks. Even without an invitation, you could enter.

But as the saying goes, since you're here, wouldn't it be embarrassing not to contribute something?

However, just as Su Mo entered the venue, he ran directly into a group of young people in gorgeous clothes.

"It's you!"

The leading young man looked at Su Mo with surprise and anger.

Su Mo turned his head and looked over, also quite surprised. Wasn't this Horian, whose leg he had broken?

It was really a narrow road for enemies, but Su Mo was too lazy to pay attention to him, and just said lightly.

"What, your leg is healed and doesn't hurt anymore?"

"You..."

Hearing Su Mo's words, Horian's face turned green and red with anger, but he still didn't dare to lose his temper at Su Mo.

Su Mo ignored him and walked straight into the venue.

The entire venue was very spacious, and it was in the form of a buffet. Various foods and drinks were placed on long tables.

If you looked closely, you would find that all the drinks and food in the banquet hall were not very high-end.

And the amount provided was just right, not too wasteful.
