Destiny Mission of game ‘Star Ring’

Chapter 1655 - 1318: Tides (First Update)

Su Mo reversed his grip on the Black Gold Long Spear, pointing it at Helene, coughed, and said boastfully.

"Is that all you got? And you want to kidnap someone?"

Helene controlled her mecha, pulling out a portable Light Blade from her waist with a fierce glare at Su Mo.

"I won’t give up."

"Oh really? It takes real skills to pull off a kidnapping, and with your technique, you should practice more."

Su Mo waved the Black Gold Long Spear gleamingly at Helene, babbling away while secretly complaining. Why doesn’t this chick get it? I’ve been hinting like crazy that she’s no match, she should just leave, but she’s not listening.

Su Mo felt like he was about to cough up blood, feeling like he had let so much slack there’s hardly any ocean left.

Helene angrily charged again, swinging the Light Blade fiercely towards Su Mo.

Su Mo controlled Mad Eye Rhenhok to keep dodging, with each strike missing against the Light Blade.

"It’s no good, too slow, and too weak. Why not go back and train for a few more years?"

"You bastard!"

Helene gritted her teeth and yelled in shame and anger.

Su Mo was speechless, controlling Mad Eye Rhenhok to lift the Long Spear, blocking Helene’s slashes, and said earnestly.

"Give it up, you’re really not up to it!"

"I’ll fight you to the end."

Helene became even more outraged.

Su Mo watched as Helene made her full-on assault, each strike getting fiercer.

He also felt like coughing up blood.

Just at that moment, Su Mo suddenly stiffened, his expression changing slightly.

"What’s that?"

He saw in the distant starry sky, an ominous red aurora spreading over the heavens, veiling the entire space.

Creator · Swallower saw this and gravely said to Su Mo.

"It’s a surge of Negative Energy!"

Upon hearing this, Su Mo instantly recalled the chaotic scene on Earth Star back then, his face changing drastically. He immediately reinforced the AT Field, ignoring Helene.

Next, Su Mo raised his electronic bracelet, furiously sending messages to Alles through the Star Ring Forum.

"President of Alles, a surge of Negative Energy is coming, be wary of mutations!!!"

...

Somehow, Su Mo’s messages were like stones dropped into the sea, receiving no response.

Meanwhile, Helene furiously kept swinging her Light Blade, striking Mad Eye Rhenhok’s AT Field Barrier, unfortunately unable to breach it.

At this moment, the surge of Negative Energy swept through.

As it brushed past Su Mo, he felt his heart inexplicably stir, but it quickly calmed down.

Su Mo paused slightly, finding it unbelievable that this time the Negative Energy surge didn’t seem as intense as before.

"Xiao Shi, this time the Negative Energy surge doesn’t seem as terrifying as last time?"

"Who told you that? The surge’s intensity is greater than before. It’s just that your tolerance has increased so much that you don’t feel it as much. Alright, now isn’t the time to discuss this. You still have to deal with that girl, she seems a bit out of control."

Creator · Swallower said with limited patience.

Su Mo gave a slight start, then looked toward Helene.

The polluted blood stains on the Crimson Apostle were significantly increasing, making its attacks more frenzied and erratic.

Su Mo frowned, sensing trouble. Then he deftly maneuvered his mecha to dodge the attacks and said to Helene.

"Too weak, you better give up."

"Never, I won’t give up until I rescue brother Yurika."

Helene shouted, somewhat losing her mind.

Su Mo felt a headache coming on.

At that moment, voices came through Su Mo’s communication channel.

"Lord Su Mo, we’re here to assist you!"

Su Mo turned his head to see his subordinates piloting Fake V Generation Mechas rapidly approaching.

Seeing this, Su Mo felt helpless, realizing that things were getting troublesome. The Lieutenants and Colonels were coming, yet this girl still hadn’t sensed to run. At this point, he couldn’t very well go easy on her in front of them.

With this in mind, Su Mo adjusted his strength and swept the Black Gold Long Spear toward Helene.

Helene parried, but her entire mecha reeled back as if struck by a heavy blow.

Su Mo immediately surged forward in his mecha, sweeping again and driving Helene back toward her comrades.

Meanwhile, Su Mo controlled Mad Eye Rhenhok to open its mouth, firing a beam at the vicinity of her comrades to draw their attention.

Sure enough, Helene’s comrades noticed the beam narrowly grazing past, started, and turned their gaze.

They saw Helene being thoroughly overpowered, dangerously close to defeat.

Seeing that her comrades hadn’t arrived yet, Su Mo felt forced to act. He switched to the public channel and arrogantly spoke.

"With just this skill, you’re doomed. Watch how I cut you down."

With that, Su Mo ruthlessly sent Helene flying towards her comrades with a swipe of his spear.

It was then that Helene’s companions snapped to attention and rushed forward.

"Sister Wei!"

Helene’s eyes were bloodshot, and she tried to charge at Su Mo again, but the next second she was pulled back by her teammates.

"Sister Wei, you can’t win, we should go! As long as the green hills remain, there’s no fear of running out of firewood."

"I’m not leaving!"

"Let’s go!"

Her teammate beside her pulled Helene away with all their might.

Watching this scene, Su Mo secretly exhaled in relief, thinking how exhausting it was to hold back, feeling like he was about to blurt out that they were on the same side.

However, just then, Fake V Generation Mechas charged in, and upon seeing Helene about to escape, they shouted.

"Don’t even think about running!"

Seeing this, Su Mo’s face darkened, clutching his chest and shouting in the communication channel.

"Oh no, why is my heart hurting so much, this is bad, I’m being affected by Negative Energy...."

"Lord Su Mo, are you alright!"

Instantly, more than half of the NCOs chasing turned around, rushing toward Su Mo.

Seeing some still in pursuit, Su Mo quickly shouted into the communication channel.

"I’m fine, I can hold on. But don’t chase a desperate foe! Don’t chase! Watch out for a trick, a trap!"

The remaining pursuing NCOs heard Su Mo’s words, and although a bit unwilling, they had no choice but to halt their advance.

At this point, an anxious voice from the Floating Light’s Control Officer sounded in everyone’s communication.

"It’s bad, Lord Su Mo, some soldiers on the Floating Light are undergoing mutations and losing control due to the Negative Energy surge."

Upon hearing this, Su Mo frowned and immediately issued a command.

"Retreat, return to the Floating Light."

"Yes!"

Everyone responded in unison.

Shortly afterward, Su Mo and his team returned to the Floating Light, immediately hearing the sounds of small-scale clashes.

The entire Floating Light was in turmoil, causing Su Mo to change expressions and swiftly order.

"Go and suppress it!"

"Yes!"

The present NCOs replied promptly.

After giving the order, Su Mo rushed to Yurika’s holding area, silently praying nothing went wrong there.

When Su Mo arrived, he found everything normal in the holding area.
