Destiny Mission of game ‘Star Ring’

Chapter 1743 - 1392: Surprise (Part 3)

Fendi watched the scene and couldn’t help but sigh, to be honest, she sincerely admired Lan Xi.

Back when Lan Xi first joined the medical department, she was just a half-baked doctor, and Fendi had guided her.

But the talent and obsession she showed for negative energy pollution research have brought her to the forefront.

Actually, Fendi has always been a bit puzzled about what truly supports Lan Xi to stay on Ceres despite everything.

Even Dr. Zhang Wei and others don’t stay long on Ceres.

After all, this place is too dangerous; even if nothing happens now, it doesn’t mean nothing will happen the next second.

Many battle-hardened warriors couldn’t stand it, yet she managed to stay here year after year, surrounded by all kinds of corpses.

In fact, the Federation has tried several times to get her back to Earth Star to oversee the work of the biological laboratory, but she refused every time.

At this moment, Hai Mo and Wolf walked in, and they happened to see this scene, their expressions changed dramatically.

"Dr. Lan Xi, what are you doing?"

"It’s fine, don’t disturb me."

Lan Xi raised her hand to interrupt them, slowly closed her eyes, feeling the changes in her body.

Time ticked away.

About an hour later, Lan Xi suddenly opened her eyes, revealing a look of joy.

"As the records said, it’s truly effective; I feel the negative energy pollution in my body has been greatly suppressed."

Upon hearing Lan Xi’s words, Wolf was also stunned and said, "Dr. Lan Xi, is what you said true?"

"Yes, having spent so long on Ceres, I am quite aware of my state. I feel better than ever now."

Lan Xi said with great joy.

"That’s wonderful."

Hai Mo also replied cheerfully, she had seen her companions go mad or mutate over the years. They didn’t die at the hands of monsters, but due to that dreadful pollution.

"Let’s search further, there must be more nearby."

Lan Xi said excitedly.

"Alright!"

Hai Mo and the others responded in unison.

...

Meanwhile, Su Mo and Sun Duoxiang left Thunder Base and arrived at the outer region.

They were walking toward the distant Star Destroyer Longyin.

From afar, Su Mo saw Qian Chengxue, who was at this moment gathered with Lin Yaotian, Lin Xiaoyu, Lin Hai, and others, discussing something unknown.

Noteworthy was that a middle-aged woman stood beside Lin Yaotian. Although wearing a lady’s mechanical armor, it was clear she wasn’t a combatant; her speech and demeanor revealed her as distinctly aristocratic.

Su Mo found her very familiar, seeming like Lin Ming’s mother, Zhang Yin.

He came over and greeted, "Father, Aunt."

Lin Yaotian nodded slightly as a response.

Seeing this, Lin Hai promptly said.

"Father, I think we could ask Su Mo for his opinion."

"What’s going on?"

Su Mo asked curiously.

Qian Chengxue spoke worriedly, "Father wishes to hurry to Dark Dusk Base. The situation with big brother over there isn’t looking good."

"But you can’t rush; the distance to Dark Dusk Base is very far, and there are many monsters on the way. Hastily rushing over can easily lead to trouble."

Su Mo frowned slightly, expressing his disapproval.

"Then what should be done? If Lin Ming encounters any misfortune, how can I survive?"

With red eyes, Zhang Yin said.

Lin Yaotian sighed and said to Su Mo, "I understand the situation you’re talking about, but I just spoke with a Federation NCO. He told me they’ve been in emergency since the monster tide erupted at Dark Dusk. Now, so much time has passed, and the situation is looking even less promising."

Having heard what Lin Yaotian said, Su Mo thought about it. The situation at Dark Dusk Base might indeed be extremely dire.

As Thunder Base, one of the strategic bases on Ceres associated with Star Ring City, struggles to persist, Dark Dusk Base being abandoned by Star Ring City inherently lacks defensive weapons and forces, relying entirely on independent seekers and personnel from various countries.

It’s obvious to think about what the situation might be.

"You’re right, but let’s not be hasty with this."

Su Mo responded calmly.

"It’s not just me who’s anxious, look at the nearby ships from different countries, all preparing to set off for rescue."

Lin Yaotian explained soberly.

Su Mo glanced around and indeed, as Lin Yaotian said, after confirming the situation of their compatriots within Thunder Base, they were all preparing to scatter and head out for rescue.

After thinking for a while, Su Mo said to Lin Yaotian.

"Father, listen to me, I happen to need to go to Dark Dusk Base for something, let’s go together, there shouldn’t be any problem."

Su Mo said simply.

"You’re so busy, is it alright?"

Lin Yaotian asked, frowning.

Qian Chengxue quickly persuaded Lin Yaotian, "Father, if Su Mo says there’s no problem, then you don’t need to worry."

Seeing Su Mo willing to go with them to Dark Dusk Base, Zhang Yin didn’t hesitate and gratefully finalized the matter.

"Su Mo, I’m really grateful to you. Thank you for accompanying us to Dark Dusk Base."

Though a mere woman, Zhang Yin wasn’t narrow-minded; she truly understood Su Mo’s capabilities.

If he was willing to accompany them to Dark Dusk Base, there was a chance that Lin Ming might really be saved.

"No need to be so polite, we are family. Besides, Lin Ming is also my elder brother, I couldn’t possibly ignore him. Alright, I’ll go find Augustus and bid farewell before we set off."

Su Mo said decisively.

"I’ll go with you."

Lin Yaotian replied after consideration.
