Chapter 174 Award

Lin Zinuo smacked her forehead, having forgotten the main reason she came. She started scolding Su Mo, “You’re so muddle-headed, I forgot what I came to you for. How dare you hang up on me and turn off your phone! I told you that the commendation ceremony was very important, and you had to attend. Now look what happened, Master Chen Shan specifically asked to see you, but you didn't show up. We got scolded because of you, aren’t you ashamed?”

“You guys can just attend it.”

Su Mo still looked indifferent.

“What do you mean, ‘we attend it’? They even prepared a commendation certificate for you. You didn't even show up, how could you put their faces?”

Lin Zinuo got more and more annoyed as she spoke. Su Mo caused this mess and acted like nothing happened. They even had to accept the certificate on his behalf.

As her superior, she and Zhao Han were ordered by the guild to write self-criticisms. It was like being shot while lying down.

Su Mo listened with one ear and let it out the other, not taking it to heart at all, letting Lin Zinuo nag on and on.

After a while, Lin Zinuo finally calmed down.

Su Mo raised his head and looked at her, saying, "Are you done? Hurry up and get someone to help me."

"You! You're ruthless."

Lin Zinuo left helplessly.

Su Mo watched Lin Zinuo's retreating figure, a faint smile appearing on his face. It seemed like life had become a bit more interesting.

Soon after, Qin Wang ran to the hangar, panting. He asked, catching his breath, "Su Mo, you were looking for me?"

"Help me maintain this mecha."

Su Mo simply said to Qin Wang.

After listening, Qin Wang looked at the battle-scarred Black Steel Mecha with a distressed expression.

"Brother, I remember this mecha was fine before, how did it get damaged like this?"

Su Mo was a little embarrassed, coughing slightly and saying, "You must be mistaken. It was severely damaged last time and I didn't have time to repair it. Help me repair it. If you need anything, tell me, and I'll try my best to find a solution."

"Ahem, alright."

Qin Wang could only bite the bullet and accept.

"Also, these few sets of mechanical armor, please clean and maintain them thoroughly."

"Okay, leave it all to me."

Although Qin Wang was quite surprised at where Su Mo got so much good equipment, he quickly let it go. With someone as capable as Su Mo, what couldn't he do?

"Then I'll leave it to you. By the way, don't let anyone else touch my mecha, I only trust you."

Su Mo suddenly thought of the things in the cockpit and reminded Qin Wang.

After hearing Su Mo's words, Qin Wang replied, deeply moved.

"Don't worry, I will."

"Okay!"

Su Mo raised his hand and tapped, choosing to log out of the game.

After a dizzy spell, Su Mo opened his eyes and took off the helmet.

Only Su Mo was left in the private room. Sun Duoxiang and the others had already left.

Su Mo stretched and twisted his neck, loosening his muscles.

Although there were unexpected events during this exploration, it was generally very smooth. At least it was smoother than Haifeng Island, but it was also quite tiring, and the online time was very long.

Su Mo pushed open the door of the private room and walked out. The Xingyou Cafe was still bustling, and the holographic projection platform in the middle was still projecting battle footage of various masters.

Cheers could be heard from time to time!

Su Mo put his hands in his pockets and left Xingyou Cafe. When he arrived on the street, the dawn sun had already risen.

He stood there for a while, then walked towards the public rail station next to him.

Soon after, Su Mo returned to the apartment. When he opened the door, he ran into Zi Qing and the other three having breakfast.

Han Na took a sip of canned beer and gossiped, "Oh, not bad, our Su Mo is also staying out all night now. Which girl did you go out with yesterday?"

Su Mo walked to the water dispenser, poured a glass of water, and said faintly, "Went to take care of some things."

"Of course, we know you went to take care of things. You dared not even come to such a big event like the award ceremony."

Han Na said with some schadenfreude.

At this time, Zi Die tilted her head curiously and asked, "Su Mo-gege, did you go to a relative's funeral?"

Su Mo choked when he heard Zi Die's words.

"Cough cough! I went to a funeral? Who said that?"

"Sister Zinuo said it. Everyone knows it. Many people are still discussing whether to give a gift."

Zi Die said innocently.

Su Mo's face darkened. Lin Zinuo was really messing around.

At this time, Zi Qing said, "Don't talk nonsense. Su Mo, do you want to have some breakfast?"

"No, thanks. I'm a little tired, I'll go rest for a while."

"Okay, I'll put your certificate in your room."

"Okay."

Su Mo nodded slightly and walked into the room. He saw a letter of commendation and a certificate neatly placed on the table.

He walked over, opened it, glanced at it, then put it away in the drawer and went to rest.

------------------------------------

At night, Su Mo was leisurely sitting on the sofa, watching TV.

He hadn't been so relaxed in a long time.

At this time, he switched to the latest Star Ring Express.

He saw a group of reporters surrounding the gate of Senye Group, swarming to interview a handsome man with glasses who looked very refined.

"Mr. Xiao Jie, can you give a speech? I heard that the Third Army Corps you belong to successfully captured the Red Canyon Valley base. And you personally killed the Type III elite mutated monster, the Scorpion Beast of Decay, completing the first kill of a Type III mutated elite. Is this true?"

Xiao Jie replied with a smile, "Yes, but these are all very ordinary things. There's nothing worth paying attention to."

"Mr. Xiao Jie, you're really too modest. So far, no matter which country, there are few people who can kill Type III elite monsters, let alone such a powerful monster guarding one side."

.......

Su Mo watched the interview for a while, lost in thought.

He discovered a problem. This person named Xiao Jie killing a Type III elite monster caused such a big sensation. But when the Tianlong Guild's legion was exploring Haifeng Island, they must have killed Type III elite monsters as well, although they weren't mutated, but there was no response at all.

That means one thing, the strength of the experts on the surface is still very different from the official experts.

Thinking of this, Su Mo picked up his phone and logged into the forum to search a little, and found that there really aren't many experts who have publicly killed Type III monsters. This Xiao Jie has now been pushed to the top of the hot searches, and the click rate is also exploding.

Some people even directly touted him as the number one expert in Z country.

After all, according to the publicly available information, the strongest monster that players have killed is a Type III elite.

But Su Mo didn't believe this data. He had seen the strength of Chen Shan and the others. Each of them had the ability to kill Type III elites alone, and they weren't even the strongest in the Tianlong Guild.

So it is very likely that the core members of the Tianlong Guild have already explored to a very high level.

Just as Su Mo was thinking, his phone suddenly rang.
