Chapter 279 Harvest

After the Falsifier floated above the cargo, its entire body crazily expanded and differentiated, turning into a terrifying ball of fleshy tumors.

Then, horrifying tentacles extended out, piercing through the sealed containers one by one.

Through the damaged sealed container, Su Mo saw chunks of high-quality energy crystals inside, and his eyelids twitched!

He carefully checked the amount stored in the entire giant cargo hold.

There were at least 10 billion star coins worth of energy crystals here. He was really going to get rich!

Luckily, he didn't let this big fish slip away. And thanks to the Imperial army garrisoned on this transport ship, he really couldn't bear to blow it up.

This batch of supplies should be very important to the Imperial army as well.

Due to the high concentration of energy blocks, the Falsifier Devourer quickly absorbed all the cargo here, leaving not a single drop.

It contentedly retracted all its tentacles and shrunk down as it floated towards the You Ji mech.

Before long, the Falsifier Devourer re-entered Su Mo's body. It said in a deep voice,

"Destroy this place."

"Understood!"

Su Mo naturally knew that the Falsifier Devourer was afraid that someone would notice the unusual traces, so he controlled the You Ji to open its mouth, and a beam of light swept across.

Boom!

In an instant, the Tier 4 transport ship exploded from the inside out.

The Pseudo V-generation mech, You Ji, burst out from the explosion.

Su Mo took a few deep breaths and then controlled the mech to rush towards the remaining resisting Imperial troops. Now was the time to mop up.

......

Before long, Xiao Wen and the others successfully captured all the transport ships. The Imperial army troops fled or scattered.

Su Mo then controlled the You Ji to fly next to the Chen Hun. Fortunately, the entire bridge was intact and hadn't been hit, otherwise even the gods couldn't have saved them.

The Falsifier Devourer scanned the entire command room, displaying its internal situation.

The equipment in the entire command room was largely damaged, constantly sparking.

Sun Duo Xiang and Zhang Hao were lying on the ground, groaning in pain.

Su Mo couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that they hadn't died. It seemed they were lucky, and their mechanical armor saved their lives at the critical moment.

At this time, Chen Shan also arrived with his men. He said to Su Mo,

"I'll carry out the rescue immediately."

"Okay, after the rescue is over, everyone go to the Yuan Feng. I have something to explain."

Su Mo then controlled the You Ji to fly towards the Yuan Feng.

Soon, Su Mo piloted the You Ji to land in the Yuan Feng's hangar. Xiao Wen was personally waiting for Su Mo at the entrance.

Su Mo opened the biological cabin and jumped out.

Xiao Wen was startled by the ferocious dark red lines on Su Mo's body.

"Su Mo, are you okay? I'll call a doctor for you."

"No need, it's just a side effect of negative energy pollution. It'll be fine after a while. Help me put the You Ji mech away separately and don't let anyone see it."

Su Mo said simply.

"I'll arrange it."

"How's the looting going?"

Su Mo asked.

Xiao Wen couldn't suppress his excitement as he reported, "Very smoothly! Mo Bao Ke's subordinates are very capable, like locusts! According to preliminary estimates, we can loot more than 20 billion star coins worth of supplies this time. It's just a pity that some Imperial troops resisted to the death and sank a lot of transport ships, otherwise the profits would have been even higher."

"What about our casualties?"

Su Mo asked.

Hearing Su Mo ask this, the excitement on Xiao Wen's face suddenly dimmed, and he replied,

"The casualties are very heavy. The exact numbers haven't been tallied yet."

"Do your best to search for survivors, and end the operation as soon as possible. We need to evacuate quickly."

Su Mo took a deep breath and said.

"I'll try my best to end everything within seven hours."

Xiao Wen assured him.

"Okay."

Su Mo nodded.

At this time, Xiao Wen said to Su Mo, "Su Mo, do you want to rest for a while?"

"No need, I want to keep an eye on things personally. Let's go to the command room."

Su Mo's nerves were still tense, without any relaxation. He had finally succeeded, and he didn't want any problems to arise at the end.

"Okay."

Xiao Wen didn't say anything more.

......

A day later, Sun Duo Xiang, with bandages on his arms, entered the Yuan Feng's command room.

The moment he saw Su Mo, he cried with snot and tears, "Boss, I thought I'd never see you again."

"Alright, stop crying. Aren't you still alive?"

Su Mo showed a tired smile and replied.

At this time, Sun Duo Xiang suddenly noticed the abnormality of Su Mo's body and was startled. He asked nervously,

"Boss, what's wrong with you? Are you injured?"

"It's nothing, I won't die."

Su Mo waved his hand as if to make light of the situation. Of course, the situation was not so optimistic. The world in Su Mo's eyes was somewhat reddish.

Moreover, his emotions were fluctuating violently for no reason, and negative emotions were constantly invading him.

Just then, Mo Bao Ke's virtual image linked in.

He shouted excitedly, "Haha, we're really rich this time!"

Su Mo looked at Mo Bao Ke, who was going crazy with joy, and interrupted him unhappily.

"Don't just be happy, have you taken care of your side?"

"Of course, I've taken care of it."

Mo Bao Ke was so happy that he didn't even notice the abnormality of Su Mo's body.

At this time, Chen Shan's image also linked in. He asked, "Su Mo, the rescue and prisoner situation is almost over. When are we returning?"

Su Mo took a deep breath and said,

"Return immediately, but don't return the same way. We'll return via a detour. And the most important thing, everyone should block communications. I don't want any leaks at the critical moment. If that attracts an Imperial army interception, all our efforts will be in vain!"

"Don't worry, we've already confiscated all communication devices and activated control and shielding devices. And we've made the people below supervise each other. If anyone leaks information, we'll kill them!"

Sun Duo Xiang took the lead in expressing his position.

Mo Bao Ke also assured him, "I'll definitely supervise my side."

Xiao Wen also nodded and said, "I'll also pay attention to it."

"Okay, then let's return."

Su Mo nodded in response.

Star Ring City Fourth Ring, outside the Star Cluster Church.

A giant memorial platform was erected.

Black and white framed photos were erected on it, imprinted with vivid faces. Behind the photos were placed urns containing ashes.

Pure white flowers surrounded the photos and urns.

At the front of the memorial platform was a row of special black and white framed photos, one of which was particularly prominent, placed in the very center.

Inside the frame was a middle-aged man in a Federation military uniform with firm eyes.

This person was none other than Beiluqi, the commander-in-chief of the Federation's Second Expeditionary Force. It was he who led the Storm fleet to launch the first attack, signaling the start of the battle.

As the initiator of the war, the Storm fleet was met with a frenzied reprisal from the Gao Motto Empire Expeditionary Force!

The entire fleet was almost completely destroyed, and the Storm ship fell.

Many officers of the Second Expeditionary Force, including Beiluqi, died in the line of duty!
