Destiny Mission of game ‘Star Ring’
Chapter 289 - 289 289 Pendant Part One

289: Chapter 289: Pendant (Part One) 289: Chapter 289: Pendant (Part One) Late at night, Su Mo returned to the tenth building of the Dawn Group.

The entire building seemed much quieter than before, Su Mo remembered when he first came to the guild, even in the middle of the night, the building was bustling.

But that was normal; too many people had resigned now.

Su Mo entered the elevator, swiped his card, and pressed for the top floor.

Before long, Su Mo arrived at the top level and walked towards Qian Chengxue’s office.

“Su Mo, what are you doing here?”

Su Mo turned his head and saw Tang Yao coming out of another elevator, holding a lunchbox in her hand.

“I have something to discuss with Sister Xue, have you not eaten yet?”

“It’s not for me, Sister Xue has been so busy that she hasn’t had time to eat, so I thought I’d bring her something.

This is from a restaurant outside, you’re going to see Sister Xue, so can you deliver this for me?”

Tang Yao smiled and handed the lunchbox over.

“Alright, I’ll go ahead then,”

Su Mo took it from her.

“Go on!”

Tang Yao waved her hand and turned to leave.

A few minutes later, Su Mo arrived at the door of Qian Chengxue’s office, which was not closed.

Su Mo looked inside and could clearly see Qian Chengxue wearing gold-rimmed glasses, her silver-white hair cascading beside the table, holding a pen in one hand and a calculator in the other, carefully checking the financial statement.

This scene stirred his heart.

However, he quickly adjusted his mentality and slowly extended his hand to knock on the door.

Thump, thump!

“Come in.”

Qian Chengxue didn’t look up.

Su Mo walked in and placed the lunchbox on the table.

Seeing the lunchbox on the table, Qian Chengxue, who was auditing the financial statement, said, “Tang Yao, you don’t need to bring me food specifically, I’m not hungry.”

Su Mo hesitated and then said, “It’s still better to eat something.”

Hearing Su Mo’s voice, Qian Chengxue looked up in surprise.

“Why are you here?

Is there something you need?”

Su Mo took out the paycheck from his pocket and handed it to Qian Chengxue, saying earnestly,

“The pay is too much, you should take it back, I know the guild doesn’t have much money right now.”

Hearing Su Mo’s words, Qian Chengxue shook her head and handed back the paycheck to Su Mo.

“The guild has enough money, you don’t need to worry about that.

Besides, I didn’t give you too much.

This is what you deserve.

As a main combatant, in the last operation, you played a key role.”

“Let’s just forget it, the last operation was my idea, even though we mined quite a bit of gold.

But we were pressed for time, and I feel like we won’t make much profit, breaking even is questionable.”

Su Mo shook his head.

Others might not be aware of the details, but he was well aware of them.

If the guild were truly wealthy, she wouldn’t have to mortgage assets.

“Su Mo, you should know that you’ve already done well, and this money is rightfully yours.

Honestly, I should give you more, but things have been a bit difficult recently, however, I will make it up to you later.

Moreover, your family isn’t very well off, and you’re not getting any younger; you will definitely need money in the future.

After all, such opportunities to make big money are rare; you should grasp them well.

Take this money, whether you want to save it or use it to buy a house, both are good choices.

Remember to take care of yourself, always consider your own needs first.”

“Okay, then, I’ll be going,”

Seeing how insistent Qian Chengxue was, Su Mo didn’t say much further.

“Wait a moment.”

Qian Chengxue suddenly called out to Su Mo.

“Is there something else?”

Su Mo looked towards Qian Chengxue with confusion.

Qian Chengxue took out a cute and delicate toy pendant from her pocket and handed it to Su Mo.

Su Mo stood there stiffly, replying in somewhat panicked words, “I don’t hang this kind of stuff.”

No sooner had he spoken than he regretted it for some reason.

Qian Chengxue paused slightly, then, coming back to her senses, she replied with a slight smile, “This is a USB drive.”

“Ah?

A USB drive?

Then I will take it.”

Su Mo’s cheeks turned slightly red as he quickly took the toy pendant and left, indeed feeling a little embarrassed.

Some time later, Su Mo returned to his apartment somewhat distracted.

As soon as he pushed the door open, he saw Han Na in her pajamas.

With a mischievous smile, she said, “I thought you wouldn’t come back tonight, that’s truly disappointing.”

“What nonsense are you thinking about?

Get some rest early.”

Su Mo replied helplessly and then headed toward his own room.

Back in his room, Su Mo turned on his computer and picked up the little white bear pendant, fiddling with it.

With a little force, the head of the little bear came off, revealing the USB port.

Su Mo plugged the USB drive into the computer, curious about its contents.

He had been too embarrassed earlier and his thoughts were somewhat scattered, so he forgot to ask Qian Chengxue why she gave him the USB drive.

Once the USB was inserted, a mini Q-version of Qian Chengxue’s avatar popped up on the computer desktop and tugged at the screen.

A file interface opened, filled with a large number of videos and documents.

This scene left Su Mo stunned.

But he soon narrowed his eyes and began to carefully review the videos and documents.

They were all about mecha military combat skills and videos of experts.

Su Mo also saw a message from Qian Chengxue.

“Su Mo, I’ve looked closely at your battles.

While your strength is indeed tremendous, I believe you’ve also realized that your mecha combat tactics are terribly poor.

If I’m not mistaken, you haven’t undergone systematic training.

To put it simply, you’re able to defeat your opponents entirely because you’re crushing them with your powerful innate abilities and attributes.

To use the simplest example, the extent of your sword swings is excessive, which severely impacts your subsequent attacks.

The overdone movement means when you retract your blade, it affects all your other movements.

Fights between top combatants often hinge on the slimmest margins…”

“Moreover, your posture and steps are a problem, too chaotic, and many motions are too wide and unnecessary.

You often have to rely on great reflexes and prediction to compensate for the mistakes in your movements…”

“Your coordination also has significant issues, sometimes too random, making you expose too many fatal weaknesses.”

“If I’m not mistaken, many of your combat skills are self-taught.

From this, it’s clear that your learning, memory, and mimicry abilities are extremely strong.

I believe with systematic study, your strength will reach a new level.

For this reason, I’ve systematically organized these materials for you, which I believe will be of use to you…”

…

The content on the USB drive was comprehensive, starting with military tactical movements for mechas.

Further in were advanced operational methods and various highly practical combat skills.

At the end were videos of the top mecha pilots from various countries fighting…

…

After briefly browsing the contents, Su Mo felt warmth in his heart.

So much material, and so well organized—how much time and effort must it have taken.
