Outside the door, Su Mo was deeply moved by what he heard. The old man was really good to him.

At this moment, Creator·Devourer said to Su Mo, "Don't space out, quickly find a place to hide."

"Uh..."

Su Mo immediately came back to his senses and ran to hide around the corner.

As soon as Su Mo was hidden, the door of the study opened.

Ikaroya walked out indifferently and headed straight for the front door.

Su Mo watched Ikaroya's gradually receding figure and came out from around the corner, letting out a long breath.

"Good thing, I wasn't discovered."

If he had been discovered, it would have been extremely embarrassing.

Just then, a hoarse voice came from the study.

"What are you standing outside for? Aren't you coming in?"

Su Mo's expression froze, then he walked into the study with a smile on his face and said to the old man diligently, "Master, I'm here. Have you eaten?"

The old man glanced at Su Mo. Seeing Su Mo's enthusiasm, he knew that this guy was up to no good. He coughed and asked indifferently, "No need to be so attentive, what are you here for?"

"As expected of Master, you're really amazing, you saw through my little thoughts at a glance."

Su Mo said with a smile. As for Ikaroya and the eavesdropping, the two of them tacitly avoided mentioning them.

"Alright, get to the point."

The old man was not in the mood to joke with Su Mo.

"It's like this, I want to borrow a team of high-tech engineers from you. You sell so many weapons all year round, you should have your own team, right?"

Su Mo said with a grin.

The old man's cloudy eyes stared at Su Mo, and he frowned slightly, saying, "What are you borrowing them for?"

"To repair a fortress."

Su Mo didn't hide anything and answered directly.

"What fortress?"

The old man was also very surprised. He didn't expect Su Mo to borrow an engineering team to repair a fortress.

"This fortress."

Su Mo raised his electronic wristband, performed a series of operations, and displayed the all-round image of the Alien Mother Nest Fortress·Jinyu Zhi Xin.

"Isn't this Jinyu Zhi Xin? I didn't expect you to get your hands on this thing."

The old man recognized it at first glance when he saw the image and said with surprise.

"Hey, as expected of Master, you recognized it at a glance. Is this fortress very famous?"

Su Mo asked expectantly. To be honest, he didn't know the origin of this fortress yet.

"It's famous, but not for good reasons."

The old man pondered for a while and replied with a strange expression.

"Ah? Really?"

Su Mo was also very surprised.

"This fortress is a strategic weapon fortress of the Alien race, but it is also their shame. It didn't play any role in that war and was sunk."

The old man said with a hint of sarcasm.

"This..."

The corners of Su Mo's mouth twitched non-stop. This was too much of a pit.

"But you don't have to worry, the fortress itself is good. It's mainly a bunch of idiots using it, it's not surprising that it sank."

The old man said lightly.

"That's good, I'm definitely not one of those idiots."

Su Mo replied awkwardly.

"Alright, this fortress is not bad, it's worth repairing. I'll give you the construction team."

The old man said hoarsely to Su Mo.

"Thank you, Master."

Su Mo's eyes lit up, and he replied very happily.

"Alright, no need to say those unnecessary things. Is there anything else?"

The old man seemed a little tired and didn't bother to talk nonsense with Su Mo.

Su Mo thought for a moment, his eyes flickered slightly, then he said to the old man with a smile, "There's nothing else. By the way, Master, is there anything you need me to do? I can help. I'm pretty free lately."

"Something?"

The old man was also very surprised.

"Yes, like finding stone slabs, etc..."

Su Mo stated very affirmatively, in fact, he was just volunteering to help the old man.

Actually, Su Mo knew best how good the old man was to him, and he was very moved.

Also, Su Mo was very clear that Xiao Shi was also given to him by the old man.

As a person from a lower civilization, in the eyes of normal higher civilization people, he was no different from an ant.

Although the old man had a bad temper, he never looked down on him and always stood on an equal footing.

This could not help but remind Su Mo of his deceased grandfather. For a time, his heart was filled with mixed feelings, so he also wanted to help the old man do something.

The old man couldn't help but fall into silence. He clearly understood what Su Mo meant and was quite touched.

Su Mo waited quietly, and the atmosphere was a bit silent for a while.

Finally, the old man broke the silence with a hoarse voice.

"I'll give you some information, do what you can."

"Okay, no problem."

Su Mo agreed directly.

The old man raised his left hand and performed a series of operations on the electronic wristband. Then, a top-secret document was transmitted to Su Mo.

Su Mo glanced at it, then said to the old man, "Master, then I'll leave first."

"Go."

The old man replied indifferently.

Su Mo turned around and was about to leave when he stopped again.

"What is it now?"

The old man's cloudy eyes stared at Su Mo.

"I suddenly remembered, there's one more thing."

Su Mo said a little awkwardly.

"Speak!"

"Old man, do you have the technology for anti-matter series weapons?"

Su Mo asked with a thick skin. Although this technology could also be exchanged for in Star Ring City, the required merits were also daunting.

"The construction team I gave you is proficient in all kinds of technologies. You can just go to them if you want anything."

The old man replied expressionlessly.

"Understood, Master."

Su Mo was also very surprised, but he quickly realized it.

"Go."

The old man waved his hand tiredly.

Su Mo then exited the study and closed the door behind him.

After the door was closed, the old man was still sitting in the chair, looking in the direction where Su Mo left, his eyes full of confusion.

On the other side, after Su Mo came out, he also took a deep breath. While walking outside, he said to Xiao Shi.

"Xiao Shi, I'll ask you a question."

"Say it."

"What is the old man's identity? I feel like he's an amazing big shot."

"That's natural."

"Then who is he?"

"What do you care so much about? Anyway, you can't compare to him, you trash."

"Of course I know that, isn't this just curiosity? Look at the old man, he can talk to Master Ikaroya like that. What's their relationship? Could they be relatives?"

"Sort of."

Creator·Devourer replied in a low voice.

"I'll go, really relatives? Who is the old man? Tell me about it."

Su Mo's eyes lit up and he asked more curiously.

However, Xiao Shi became more and more silent and did not answer Su Mo for a long time.

"What's wrong? Can't you say? Could it be that there's something unspeakable?"

Su Mo asked very puzzled.
