CHAPTER 746: CHAPTER 591: COVERING

Su Mo then stood up and looked back. He saw Qian Chengxue talking with a female officer from the GT department about something.

He made his way toward them.

The officer, on seeing Su Mo approach, very promptly said,

"Officer Qian Chengxue, then I’ll go down and get ready."

"Go on."

Qian Chengxue nodded.

"Are you busy?"

Su Mo asked as he walked up beside Qian Chengxue.

"Not at all, do you need something from me?"

Qian Chengxue asked, with a slight smile.

"Ahem, it’s like this, we’re going to depart soon, so why don’t we explore together?"

Su Mo invited her without any pretense.

Qian Chengxue smiled and shook her head, "I’m afraid that won’t work, I still have tasks assigned by the GT department and can’t get away."

"You have a task?"

A trace of surprise flashed through Su Mo’s eyes.

Qian Chengxue explained casually, "Yes! You are an exception. Otherwise, who would complete the GT department’s tasks? As for Mo Baoke and the others, they were not assigned any tasks because you brought them here."

"Alright."

Su Mo was somewhat disappointed, but did not say much else.

"It’s fine, once I’m done with my tasks here, I will join you as soon as possible."

"Okay, take care then."

Su Mo said with concern upon hearing her reply.

"Mhm, I still have some things to arrange, I’ll be busy now."

"Okay."

....

Twelve hours later, the exits of the Black Teeth opened one by one, and a succession of mechas and interstellar fighters flew out in an orderly fashion.

Following that, the fleet of escort ships outside the Black Teeth began to detach from the main fleet in teams.

They met with different mechas and interstellar fighters, then traveled towards different parts of the starry sky.

At this time, Su Mo, piloting the Gluttonous Mecha, burst out of the Black Teeth and moved towards the direction of Zhao Wushuang’s fleet to the right.

Inside the Gluttonous Mecha Biological Cabin,

the holographic images of Zhao Wushuang, Xiao Wen, Chen Shan, Mo Baoke, Sun Duoxiang, and others were all linked in.

For this exploration operation, the Lin Family’s exploration team and the Ye Family exploration team were free to move on their own, while the rest were to follow Su Mo’s lead.

Su Mo coughed a bit, feeling slightly nervous, as this was his first time formally commanding a large-scale team mission.

Truth be told, Su Mo really felt a bit of pressure.

Then Su Mo formally began, "Let me briefly go over the issues and tasks of this operation, as well as the most important things to pay attention to. First and foremost, if you discover any abnormalities or unearth special resources, report them immediately, unconditionally. This is an ironclad rule. Anyone who violates this rule will be punished. Also, don’t think about hiding it, hoping to get lucky. The Black and White Organization has sent inspection officers to patrol all exploration teams."

"Understood!"

Everyone responded in unison.

"Alright, enough talk, everyone follow me!"

After laying out the tasks, Su Mo led the way, piloting the Gluttonous Mecha toward the stars ahead.

"Oh yeah! It’s starting."

Sun Duoxiang exclaimed with excitement.

"Do we really need to be this excited? It’s just the beginning; stay cool. As a younger brother, how can you lose face for Lord Su Mo?"

Mo Baoke began his unconventional flattery of Su Mo.

Sun Duoxiang retorted with disdain, "Of course I’m excited. The big boss got the coordinates of the resource points from Lord Spade. Others are searching for resources, but we’re going to mine them. We’ll have something to dig into right from the start. How can I not be excited?"

"Really?"

Chen Shan and the others were also visibly excited.

"Almost. Let’s pick up the pace, everyone."

Su Mo responded calmly.

Hearing Su Mo’s words, Mo Baoke said excitedly, "Lord Su Mo, you’re truly sent by heaven to save us. I adore you."

"Roll on, catch up quickly."

Su Mo was too lazy to retort.

"Got it!"

.....

Two days later, Su Mo, piloting the Gluttonous Mecha, arrived at a brown dwarf planet following the coordinates given by Spade. This dwarf planet was quite small, less than one-tenth the size of a standard planet.

However, its atmospheric conditions were remarkably harsh, with violent winds blowing occasionally.

Fortunately, there were no catastrophic weather conditions.

Moreover, after an initial scan, there were no signs of lifeforms detected on the planet.

"Su Mo, is this the place?"

Xiao Wen asked.

"Yes, this is it. I’m sharing the detailed information with all of you. Everyone, act quickly and prepare for landing," Su Mo observed and said.

"Understood!"

Zhao Wushuang replied steadily.

Quickly, transport ships and escort ships pierced the turbulent atmosphere, and soon the brown ground came into view for everyone.

"So many pits."

Sun Duoxiang commented somewhat surprisedly.

At a glance, the ground before them was scattered with at least a hundred deep pits, making it obvious that this area had already been mined.

Yet even so, Sun Duoxiang and the others were still very excited.

Though mined, it at least proved the validity of the site, and it was certain that the Yanas Kingdom’s people hadn’t extracted everything.

"The rest is up to you all now, everyone pay attention to safety," Su Mo said upon seeing the pits and let out a slight sigh of relief. It was good that they hadn’t come all this way for nothing. Keep in mind that they had come straight to these coordinates without any stops along the way.

Additionally, there’s something called specialization in one’s field of work. Su Mo was experienced in combat, but when it came to mining and exploration, he preferred to let them take the lead. After all, specialist tasks should be left to the experts.

"Understood!"

Zhao Wushuang and the others responded one after another.

Before long, all the ships landed smoothly on a clear space, and the cargo bay doors at the rear opened up, with various engineering vehicles being unloaded in an orderly manner.
