Chapter 118 Awe-Inspiring Junior

Right at that moment, Herbert and the others walked straight towards Su Mo and his group, everyone else making way for them.

Seeing Herbert and his entourage approach, Su Mo felt like he was about to vomit blood. What he feared most was coming true.

At this time, Alexia, Wang Hai, and others also gathered around to watch, though they had no intention of getting involved, merely observing.

Xia Weiya gazed at Herbert approaching and whispered to Su Mo, "Herbert's here. Scared?"

"This is all because of you guys."

Su Mo retorted with a slight movement of his lips.

"Hehe, don't worry, I'm here."

Xia Weiya pondered for a moment, Herbert coming over to cause trouble might not be a bad thing, as it would give her an opportunity to win over Su Mo.

Soon, Herbert led the way, stopping in front of Su Mo.

"Officer Herbert."

Su Mo greeted, forcing himself to remain calm.

"Let me see your electronic bracelet's merit record."

Herbert said in a deep voice.

"Uh, alright."

Su Mo didn't really want to offend Herbert. He figured it wouldn't hurt to show him, since he had nothing to hide.

So Su Mo opened his electronic bracelet, displaying the information.

The surrounding crowd all looked over.

Herbert stared at Su Mo's reward information, his expression shifting, and he remained silent for a long time.

Luo Qi, on the other hand, spoke up, not understanding. "What's going on? Why did Su Mo get so many merits for guarding the solar furnace? Although guarding the solar furnace is indeed important, the difficulty is not comparable to intercepting the Yongmian Clan's Vice Patriarch, Mogasi."

Many of the officers also began to discuss it.

"From the perspective of difficulty, it seems that intercepting Vice Patriarch Mogasi is indeed more difficult."

"I think so too."

"What's going on? Aren't the merits assessed by the artificial intelligence, Light and Shadow? It should be very fair."

"Could it be that artificial intelligence, Light and Shadow, is showing favoritism?"

Su Mo, hearing the crowd's discussion, stroked his chin and pondered. What they said wasn't entirely wrong. Intercepting Vice Patriarch Mogasi seemed to be more difficult.

After all, he had personally experienced that guy's abnormality, and he had almost lost his life last time.

Thinking of this, Su Mo looked at the merits he had received and was also puzzled. How could it be so much more than Herbert's?

At this time, Creator · Devourer said to Su Mo in a low voice, "Can't you figure out such a simple principle? Yes, Herbert made a great contribution by intercepting Vice Patriarch Mogasi, and the difficulty coefficient was also the highest. But you forgot that the assessment of merit rewards is done by artificial intelligence · Light and Shadow. For artificial intelligence · Light and Shadow, the solar furnace is its heart. No matter how fiercely the outside battle rages, how can it be as important as its own heart? Moreover, artificial intelligence · Light and Shadow believes that protecting the solar furnace will allow it to end the war, which is more significant! To put it bluntly, artificial intelligence · Light and Shadow favors the solar furnace as more important. Therefore, regardless of the difficulty, internal missions contribute more than external missions."

"Oh, I understand. So, the general idea is that I benefited from artificial intelligence · Light and Shadow's bias?"

"It's not entirely favoritism, but rather that artificial intelligence · Light and Shadow makes such judgments. It's like a person fighting in the capital's defense war, and another person fighting in an external interception war. Even if the latter is more difficult, his contribution will not be as great as the former."

Creator · Devourer explained in detail.

After a moment of silence, Herbert faintly said, "Artificial intelligence · Light and Shadow is fair, there's nothing to say."

Hearing Herbert say this, everyone closed their mouths, and the atmosphere became a little strange.

Seeing this, Major General Kuna smiled and said to Herbert, "Officer Herbert, I heard that you have accumulated a lot of merits over the years, and with this time's merits, wouldn't you have broken 300 million?"

"300 million!"

All the officers present took a breath of cold air.

Hearing Kuna's words, Herbert's expression softened a lot, and he corrected, "Not that much, only 260 million."

"Officer Herbert, if you accumulate a little more, you can exchange for the Gungnir in the future. At that time, you will be even more powerful, and your strength will skyrocket."

The people next to him quickly flattered.

Herbert waved his hand and said indifferently, "We'll talk about that later."

Then, Herbert patted Su Mo on the shoulder and said, "The younger generation is to be feared!"

Su Mo was also stunned, and then quickly and respectfully replied, "Thank you! Officer Herbert for the praise!"

"Mm!"

Herbert nodded slightly and turned to leave.

"Not bad, I didn't expect you to be recognized by Herbert, that stinky fart. But you still have a long way to go to catch up with him, the gap between you is not small."

Xia Weiya chuckled.

Su Mo didn't say anything, but thought about one thing. Herbert's accumulated merits were almost enough to exchange for the Gungnir. He knew best how good that gun was.

But looking at Herbert's appearance, it seemed like he really had no intention of exchanging it.

Thinking of this, Su Mo was a little puzzled.

"Why, are you feeling discouraged?"

Seeing that Su Mo didn't say anything, Xia Weiya asked with a smile.

"No, I was just thinking, the Gungnir is so good, why doesn't Herbert exchange it?"

Su Mo said directly to Xia Weiya. In fact, he was also very envious of the Gungnir, but it was a pity that the merits required for the exchange were too many.

It should be known that merits are very difficult to accumulate.

It's not like you can encounter such major life-and-death events every year, and the usual missions give very few merits.

And the most important point is that merits cannot be traded, you can only rely on yourself to slowly accumulate them, and everyone's time is limited.

In addition, people are often forced to spend some merits, so very few people can save them.

"It's not that he doesn't want to exchange it, but..."

Xia Weiya suddenly stopped halfway through her sentence.

"But what?"

Su Mo looked at Xia Weiya curiously.

Xia Weiya hesitated for a few seconds, then lowered her voice and said to Su Mo, "I'm telling you, but don't tell anyone else, otherwise the consequences will be very serious."

Hearing Xia Weiya say this, Su Mo became even more curious, and he quickly nodded in response.

"Okay."

"The Xinghuan City is manufacturing two 6th-generation biological mechas in the First Birthplace. These two 6th-generation biological mechas will be completed soon. At that time, the twelve knights in the Royal Knights will be qualified to exchange them with merits. Of course, he has to save his merits. It should be known that the competition within the Royal Knights is also very real. If people below him get the 6th-generation biological mechas, his ranking may be shaken."

Xia Weiya showed a meaningful smile.

The corner of Su Mo's mouth twitched. He thought to himself, the person who wants to pull Herbert down the most is probably you.

Of course, Su Mo's emotional intelligence was not so low that he would be stupid enough to say it.
