"What do you think? Otherwise, staying in the City of Light would be much more comfortable. At the very least, I could take on a mission to support the Revakis base and farm some merit rewards, wouldn't that be nice? So, it's absolutely impossible for you to ask me to cover for you. I'm already tearing my hair out over here. And don't bother asking anyone else to cover for you; everyone's in the same boat. No one will."

Bagg didn't beat around the bush and explained the situation to Su Mo very frankly.

After hearing Bagg's explanation, Su Mo felt like he had walked into a dead end. It seemed like there was no solution to this problem.

At this moment, Creator Devourer also said to Su Mo in a low voice, "Bagg is right. No one will cover for you at this critical moment."

Of course, Su Mo knew that Little Devourer and Bagg were right. Everyone would prioritize saving their own people. Moreover, his relationship with the other Royal Knights of the Twelve was even worse.

Seeing that Su Mo hadn't spoken for a long time, Bagg felt that he might have gone a bit too far, so he coughed and said to Su Mo, "Brother, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that I really can't. Look at how frantic I am."

At this moment, Su Mo suddenly raised his head and showed a smile to Bagg.

"Bagg, I have an idea."

Before Bagg even heard it, he shook his head like a rattle.

"No, no, no idea will do. I won't listen."

"Don't rush to refute me, listen to me first," Su Mo said, annoyed.

"Then speak, but I won't agree anyway," Bagg said confidently.

"What I mean is, you cover for me, and I'll go to the front line to help you rescue people. Whoever you want to save, I'll help you save them. Wouldn't that work?"

Su Mo directly stated his idea.

Bagg was stunned and looked at Su Mo in disbelief.

"You help me rescue people? The area where I want to rescue them is very dangerous."

"No matter how dangerous it is, I'll help you rescue them. Don't you trust my character? Or are you questioning my strength? I'll say something you might not like, but don't get angry. In a one-on-one fight, you can't beat me. As for spaceships, look at mine; it's far better than your Star Destroyer. It's definitely more reliable for me to help you rescue people than for you to go yourself."

Su Mo started to brainwash Bagg.

Bagg was stunned by Su Mo's words. It seemed to make sense.

"That makes sense."

"So you agree?"

Su Mo secretly breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that.

"Alright! I'll cover for you, and you help me rescue people. I don't need you to rescue too many, just help me rescue a group of people who are trapped."

Bagg made a decision very decisively.

"It's settled then. Send me the information and situation of the people you want to rescue, and I'll go find Goli for approval."

"Okay, go ahead."

Bagg waved his hand generously at Su Mo.

Afraid that Bagg would go back on his word, Su Mo quickly ran towards the nearby elevator.

...

City of Light, City Lord's Mansion.

Goli was concentrating on approving documents, with stacks of them already approved beside her.

At this moment, a knock on the door rang.

*Knock, knock!*

Goli was slightly surprised. She hadn't scheduled any reports at this time. However, she still said, "Come in."

Then the door was pushed open, and Su Mo walked in.

Goli looked at Su Mo and showed a faint smile, saying gently, "Su Mo, what's the matter?"

"Lord Goli, it's like this. Wasn't I assigned to stay in the City of Light? But I have some things I want to do on the front line, so I asked Bagg to cover for me. Is that okay?"

Su Mo asked very respectfully.

After hearing this, Goli's delicate face fell into contemplation, wondering what she was thinking.

Su Mo's heart was in his throat as he watched this scene.

*Could it be that it won't work?*

After a long while, Goli said to Su Mo, "Su Mo, this is a critical period. All personnel assignments are carefully considered. Under normal circumstances, I shouldn't approve your request. However, this time I'll make an exception. Consider it my gift to you for being promoted to Royal Knight of the Twelve."

"Thank you, Lord Goli."

Su Mo couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"You're welcome. Is there anything else?"

Goli then asked.

"Yes, I need to purchase a batch of nuclear mines and antimatter missiles, and I need your authorization."

Su Mo quickly mentioned the purchase.

"That's no problem. I can give you the authorization. But you may have to wait a few days. There are too many people applying for these supplies, and the logistics department needs to coordinate it. But it shouldn't be a big problem," Goli replied gently.

"Thank you, Lord Goli. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave."

Su Mo immediately reacted after hearing Goli's words.

The City of Light probably couldn't provide many nuclear mines and antimatter missiles to its subordinates. It was estimated that many people's supply lists would be cut.

"Okay, and be careful."

Goli gave one last reminder.

Su Mo paused slightly, then nodded and left.

...

Not long after, Su Mo left the City Lord's Mansion.

Creator Devourer said to Su Mo in a low voice, "I feel that Goli and the others wanting you to stay in the City of Light is a bit fishy."

"Yeah, I feel it too. Normally, covering for someone is a very common thing, but Goli hesitated for a long time just now. Moreover, Goli gave each of us a Future Envoy a while ago. That action is also very strange," Su Mo agreed.

"It seems that going to the front line to rescue people may not be a bad thing," Creator Devourer replied in a low voice.

"Forget it, I don't want to think about it," Su Mo took a deep breath.

*Buzz, buzz*

Suddenly, Su Mo's electronic bracelet vibrated. Sun Duo Xiang sent a communication request.

Su Mo answered it.

"Boss, where are you?"

"You still remember me as your boss? Since you came to the City of Light, I haven't seen you come to find me," Su Mo said with a smile.

"Boss, you're really wronging me. I've been helping Sister Xue unload cargo. It's killing me. Think about it, we have a total of twenty-seven Blue Whales, carrying how much cargo from the Federation and the Allied Nations? It's only now that we've almost finished unloading that I have time to send you a message."

"That much? Okay, I won't argue with you. I have something I need you to do."

"Ah, what is it?" Sun Duo Xiang asked quickly.

"Empty out the Shadow a bit. I'm going to send a group of people over, and you arrange for them to board the ship. Send them back to Earth later. These people are our own, so take care of them."

Su Mo briefly explained.

"But Boss, didn't Sister Xue say she wanted to go to the front line with you? Can I go with you too? Can I arrange for them to ride the Blue Whale?" Sun Duo Xiang immediately became anxious.

"No, just let them ride the Shadow. The Shadow is safer. As for you, forget it, you don't have to go back. Stay here and follow us. You can arrange for Marco and the others to do the work. Just have them do it well."

After thinking for a while, Su Mo decided to bring Sun Duo Xiang along. The kid was quite clever.

"I knew you were the best, Boss. You definitely couldn't bear to part with me," Sun Duo Xiang said with a smile.

"Alright, I won't argue with you."

Su Mo then hung up the communication.

After thinking for a while, he raised his bracelet and sent a message to Di Luo, asking her to arrange for the clansmen to transfer to the Shadow.

Soon, Di Luo replied with a message.

"Okay, I'll arrange it right away."

After seeing it, Su Mo sent another message to Di Luo.

"Let Di Leke go back too. It's not safe for him to follow us. The rear is relatively safer."

"No problem."

Di Luo quickly responded, showing that her thoughts were the same as Su Mo's.
