False Court
Chapter 878 Departure
“If you were that well-behaved, the old man wouldn’t have warned you,” the Pseudo Creator Devourer retorted disdainfully.
“Haha, let’s not talk about that. Let’s go pick up that IV-generation biological mech, Dark Knight.”
Su Mo replied with a chuckle.
Not long after, Su Mo arrived at Port 73, which was packed with people, all of whom were there to pick up weapons.
Su Mo was slightly surprised, but then he understood. The mechanical pillars could be emptied, and everyone present was partly responsible.
In fact, this indirectly showed that everyone was earning more and more star coins.
The number of high-end weapons sold by Star Ring City was also limited, not as many as one might imagine. It really lived up to the saying, “It’s better to rely on yourself than to pray to gods.” If they wanted to arm their troops on a large scale in the future, they would still need their own production lines.
Su Mo honestly queued up, waiting to retrieve his mech.
At this time, the freelancers in front of Su Mo were excitedly discussing the public mission.
“This time, I’ve spent all my savings.”
“What’s that? For this mission, I specially borrowed a lot of money from the Star Ring City Bank. I also borrowed a lot from relatives and friends. Either I make a fortune, or I’m finished.”
“Big brother is awesome, isn’t this too risky?”
“Risky my ass, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. In previous years, it was impossible to fleece a little wool from Star Ring City. If we do this well, the whole family can immigrate to Star Ring City. And I heard a rumor that if you make enough contributions, you might be able to ask Star Ring City for a suitable planet.”
“Really?”
“Of course it’s true, otherwise why are all those countries acting like they’ve been injected with chicken blood?”
…
After listening, Su Mo also had a thoughtful expression.
In the evening, Su Mo finally managed to pick up his mech. He piloted it back to the Shadow.
Sun Duo Xiang was pacing back and forth like an ant on a hot pot.
Su Mo directly controlled the mech to walk in front of him, opened the cockpit, jumped down, and said to him, “What are you doing?”
“Boss, you’re finally back. We’re all ready, just waiting for you. Oh? Boss, is this the new mech you got?”
As Sun Duo Xiang spoke, he suddenly noticed the mech Su Mo had brought back, and his whole expression went blank.
“Yeah, what’s the problem?”
“No, Boss, why did you get an IV-generation mech? You should have gotten a pseudo-V-generation at the very least.”
“Alright, don’t worry about these things. Get on the ship and get ready to leave!”
Su Mo didn’t waste any more words.
“Okay.”
Sun Duo Xiang quickly replied.
…
Not long after, Su Mo and the others were all gathered in the Shadow’s command room.
“Request to set sail.”
Su Mo said to Zhang Hao.
“Okay.”
Zhang Hao immediately sent a request to the port administrator.
As expected, the request was quickly approved, but a prompt box popped up.
“Dear Customer No. 12133, your departure request has been approved. Currently, you are ranked 1822nd, with an estimated waiting time of 34 hours and 11 minutes.”
“Damn, what’s going on?”
This was the first time Sun Duo Xiang had encountered such a situation. Usually, he didn’t have to wait at all to set sail.
“It’s normal. There are more ships setting sail now. Be patient, there’s no rush. If you force your way out, there’s a high probability of a collision.”
Su Mo stood on the observation deck, gazing into the distance at the ships taking off one by one, and said calmly.
“But Boss, won’t we be late?”
Sun Duo Xiang asked worriedly.
“What are you afraid of? It takes a normal spaceship one or two months to reach the Eden Star Region. Our ship is flying faster. Can’t we afford this little bit of time?”
Su Mo analyzed calmly.
“Boss is wise, we have superluminal flight. Let them go first, they can’t run fast anyway.”
Sun Duo Xiang said with a smile.
Qian Chengxue shook her head and said, “We can’t use superluminal flight. Star Ring City has announced that the subspace near the Eden Star Region is very unstable. Superluminal flight is likely to cause problems.”
“That’s right, just fly at sublight speed. Don’t be too anxious, everyone. It’s not necessarily a good thing to arrive first, just be about right. Also, everyone go to the Star Ring forum and pay more attention to the real-time situation of this public mission to see if there’s anything we need to pay attention to.”
Su Mo calmed down and replied. He had been quite eager at first, but after the old man poured cold water on him, he calmed down.
“Okay.”
Everyone responded.

---------------------------------------
Star Ring City Central, on the Star Picking Tower.
Star Ring City Lord Icaroya coldly overlooked the ships taking off one by one, her icy eyes flickering.
Standing next to her, Goli said with some worry, “According to the intelligence from Commander Donny of Thunder Fortress, the attack on the Eden Star Region is a bit unusual. The star region barrier was actually destroyed by a comet with an AT field. This has never happened before. Will something big happen to Sister?”
“Only a Type VI or higher creature can destroy the star region barrier with one blow, and it’s not an ordinary Type VI creature.”
Icaroya replied coldly.
“A Type VI creature? Then won’t the Breeding Star Cluster be in trouble? No, if it’s really a Tier 6 creature, Thunder Fortress would have sunk long ago.”
“The other party is hiding, but it doesn’t matter, I have my own arrangements. As for the Breeding Star Cluster, as long as the central artificial sun and the surrounding star belt don’t have problems, it doesn’t matter even if a few suitable planets fall.”
Icaroya’s tone was very indifferent, as if she was talking about a trivial matter, as if no matter how much death occurred, it was just dust falling in her eyes.
Goli wanted to say something, but in the end, she just sighed softly and didn’t say much.
…
Two days later.
In the starry sky, densely packed ships, like migrating fish, were heading towards the Eden Star Region.
The public communication channel was unusually lively.
“Look at whose blue ship that is. It looks so cool, and it’s so fast. We’re being overtaken.”
“You can tell you’re ignorant at a glance. That’s a Tier 4 battleship, Swordfish. Judging from the mark engraved on it, it should be from the Deep Sea Mercenary Corps.”
“So awesome, a Tier 4 ship. It’s almost the same as the regular army of those countries.”
“That’s for sure.”
…
“Look, everyone, a super-large black ship is rushing over.”
“Wow, this ship is even bigger than the one just now. It looks incredibly fierce.”
“Isn’t that the Federation’s Tier 5 ship, Shadow?”
