Destiny Mission of game ‘Star Ring’

Chapter 1660 - 1323: The Document (First Update)

Not long after, Su Mo appeared at the entrance of the Administrative Council Building in the center of Star Ring City.

At this moment, many different models of small aircraft were parked at the entrance of the Administrative Council Building. High-ranking NCOs and generals were seen getting off, each with a solemn expression, and walked hurriedly into the building.

At the same time, many generals and high-ranking NCOs could be seen exiting the building.

Everyone they encountered did not engage in small talk. They rarely even nodded in acknowledgment; most just walked past in a hurry.

Su Mo clearly sensed something was off; it even felt as if the sky was about to change.

He felt bewildered, as he had only been away for a few days to carry out a transport mission, yet upon his return, everything felt different.

"Xiao Shi, do you feel something’s not right?"

"Not sure."

The Creator, the Swallower, replied in a deep voice.

Su Mo’s expression flickered as he headed towards the Administrative Council Building.

The soldiers guarding the entrance saw Su Mo and saluted solemnly.

Su Mo nodded slightly and walked inside. After arriving at the hall, Su Mo was even more shocked to see the entire hall filled with hurriedly passing high-ranking NCOs and officials.

If Su Mo remembered correctly, the last time he came here to see the Icaroya City Lord, there weren’t nearly as many people.

It was then that Su Mo noticed something.

He observed that many high-ranking NCOs, officials, and generals were holding a very special sealed document in their hands.

Su Mo stood in place for a while and then walked toward the large central elevator.

At the elevator entrance, there were a large number of high-ranking NCOs, the lowest being Major level, among them were several generals.

Seeing so many people, Su Mo’s brows furrowed.

Soon, Su Mo took the elevator to the third floor, and the moment he stepped out, he wondered if he had come to the wrong place.

The entire third-floor lounge was surrounded by at least hundreds of high-ranking NCOs and generals.

This was a hall used for meeting the Icaroya City Lord, and under normal circumstances, having one or two people come to meet with the Icaroya City Lord would already be impressive.

At this moment, a capable female officer walked up to Su Mo and respectfully said, "Commander Su Mo, the Icaroya City Lord is meeting with other generals. You will need to wait a bit; there is a place there where you can rest."

"Alright, thank you."

Su Mo didn’t complain and walked directly to an empty seat to sit down.

Under normal circumstances, the high-ranking NCOs and generals present would usually greet each other or make small talk.

However, now everyone had furrowed brows and tense expressions, waiting anxiously.

Su Mo quietly watched the corridor ahead.

Every few minutes, a high-ranking NCO would rush out from inside, all holding a special sealed document.

Su Mo thoughtfully calmed himself and waited quietly.

After about an hour, a female officer walked over to Su Mo and spoke respectfully.

"Commander Su Mo, you may go in now."

Upon hearing this, Su Mo immediately got up and walked toward the Icaroya City Lord’s office.

Just then, Su Mo’s electronic bracelet vibrated, and a message popped up.

"Lord Su Mo, there are many urgent missions here. Are you available, and should I assign one to you?"

Su Mo glanced at it; it was sent by Luo Yue.

After pondering for a moment, he replied to Luo Yue with a message.

"I’m not available now, won’t take it temporarily, and will take it when I have time."

After handling this, Su Mo quickened his pace toward the Icaroya City Lord’s office.

As he reached the office’s entrance, the door was open.

Icaroya was wearing a starry blue robe, quietly standing by the window, gazing at the distant scenery.

Through her side, on her absolutely beautiful cheek, one could see Icaroya’s cold and proud expression seemingly revealing a hint of loneliness, with a cold glint flowing through her eyes.

The breeze blew gently, slightly stirring the strands of hair at her temple.

Su Mo was slightly taken aback, not knowing why a sense of illusion rose in his heart momentarily, inexplicably feeling a sense of solitude.

At this moment, the Icaroya City Lord turned around, with a cold demeanor, and walked directly to sit at the office desk.

Su Mo entered the office, faced the Icaroya City Lord, saluted, and began to report.

"Lord Icaroya City Lord, Yurika has been successfully transported to the Endless Deep Space Prison, and I’m here to report!"

"Mm, I’m aware."

Icaroya replied calmly.

Su Mo took a deep breath, just thinking about how to gather his words to speak to the Icaroya City Lord.

Instead, Icaroya City Lord took out a specially sealed dossier from the desk drawer and handed it to Su Mo, saying solemnly.

"This is for you."

"Yes!"

Seeing this, Su Mo hurried forward and reached out to take it.

"This is a top-secret document, and you must keep it safe."

Icaroya City Lord rarely instructed.

"Yes!"

Su Mo’s eyelids twitched slightly, quickly responding.

"One more thing, the dossier cannot be opened. It can only be opened at midnight on September 25th; opening it before then is strictly prohibited, or the consequences will be severe."

At this point, Icaroya City Lord’s tone became incredibly stern.

Su Mo immediately felt immense pressure and responded in a deep voice.

"Understood!"

"Alright, that’s all."

After instructing, the Icaroya City Lord said to Su Mo expressionlessly.

However, Su Mo did not leave, and Icaroya City Lord naturally noticed the issue right away. She calmly asked.

"Is there anything else?"

Taking a deep breath, Su Mo seriously said to the Icaroya City Lord, "Lord Icaroya City Lord, as a member of the Royal Order of Twelve Knights, isn’t there a special pardon authority? I wish to pardon someone."

"Who?"

"Tilo!"

Upon hearing Su Mo’s words, Icaroya City Lord’s gaze grew sharper, and she coldly replied, "How much do you know about Tilo?"

Su Mo was slightly taken aback; truthfully, he didn’t know much, but Su Mo still trusted his own judgment.

"Lord Icaroya City Lord, I believe she’s different from the other prisoners."

Icaroya City Lord replied indifferently, "Every SSS-level wanted felon isn’t a simple character; pardoning them isn’t easy."

"I solemnly request leniency from you, Lord City Lord."

Su Mo’s heart sank, he had a bad premonition.

With sharp eyes, Icaroya City Lord gazed at Su Mo.

In an instant, Su Mo felt as if his chest was weighed down by a mountain, and breathing became difficult.

At this moment, Icaroya faintly spoke to Su Mo, "If you think that on account of you, I’ll pardon Tilo, I can tell you that’s impossible, same applies to anyone else. And, you may have misunderstood something."

"Please enlighten me, Lord City Lord."

Gritting his teeth, Su Mo asked.
