Chapter 290 - 290 290 Departure Second Update
290: Chapter 290: Departure (Second Update) 290: Chapter 290: Departure (Second Update) The next day, at the port area of Red Bay Base, Su Mo walked over.
Zi Qing was directing people below, moving various supplies onto The Crane Orchid.
“Has The Crane Orchid been repaired?”
Su Mo asked.
Zi Qing nodded and replied, “It’s almost fixed, but the strength will definitely decrease a bit.
After all, a repaired ship can’t compare to a brand-new one.”
“That’s normal.”
“However….”
There was a worried expression on Zi Qing’s face.
“What’s wrong?”
“This is not the first time our Legion has used up a lot of reserves in war.
Now, we don’t quite have enough on hand.
Normally this wouldn’t be a big deal, but with the Earth Cup about to start, I feel like our preparations are inadequate, and it’s unnerving.”
Actually, Zi Qing was putting it mildly.
It wasn’t just unnerving; they were completely unnerved.
Su Mo thought for a moment and then said.
“We can replenish ourselves.”
“Ah, where can we replenish?”
Zi Qing was also a bit perplexed.
“I know where there is an abundance of the supplies we need.”
“Where?”
“Sea Breeze Island.”
Su Mo said calmly, as if he was talking about something perfectly ordinary.
“Ah!
You’re not thinking of attacking Sea Breeze Island again, are you?
Isn’t that a bit too risky?”
Zi Qing was somewhat alarmed.
After all, their last trip to Sea Breeze Island had almost ended in disaster, and she had seen firsthand how powerful the monster on the island was.
“No, think about it.
The reason our last venture to Sea Breeze Island felt so difficult wasn’t so much the monsters, but largely the players from the Heavenly Light Guild.
The truly powerful thing on Sea Breeze Island was that Type III General Level monster.
We truly had no way of dealing with it before, but now it might not be so certain.”
Su Mo explained calmly to Zi Qing.
Zi Qing gradually calmed down, carefully pondering Su Mo’s words.
The seemingly crazy idea didn’t seem entirely hopeless.
However, this matter really was beyond Zi Qing’s authority, so she seriously said to Su Mo, “I personally think your proposal is feasible.
But for such a large-scale operation, we still need Sister Xue’s approval.
Sister Zhao Han can’t make this decision either, after all if things go smoothly it’s fine, but if anything goes wrong, the trouble would be big, especially with the Legion’s current situation not being very good.”
“Hmm, then let’s go find Sister Xue.”
Su Mo nodded.
Not long after, Su Mo and Zi Qing searched both the base and the corporate offices, but couldn’t find Sister Xue.
They then found Sun Li, who was busy directing the repairs on Bay Base.
“Move faster, if that building is too badly damaged, tear it down; we’ll rebuild it all as a camp later.”
…
“Sister Sun Li.”
Zi Qing called out.
“What brings you here?
Is something the matter?”
Sun Li was a bit surprised to see Su Mo and Zi Qing together.
“We’re looking for Sister Xue.
We couldn’t get through to her phone, she’s not in the office, and no one in the base seems to have seen her.”
“This is what happened: Sister Xue has been up all night dealing with affairs and got a bit tired, so she went home to rest.
When she left, she temporarily handed over the Legion’s matters to me.
If you need her for anything, you can talk to me instead.”
Sun Li explained to them.
“After the last major battle, we’ve started running short on supplies again.
We were thinking of attacking Sea Breeze Island, which has a lot of supplies and a weapon storage.”
Su Mo didn’t mince words and told Sun Li straight.
After hearing Su Mo’s words, Sun Li’s first reaction was also that it was too crazy.
However, she didn’t contradict Su Mo but stood there thinking for a long time before finally speaking to Su Mo.
“It’s not impossible, but you need to think this through.
If you really want to fight, tell me whatever support you need.”
Su Mo nodded and replied.
“No need, I just need to deploy the twelve group members and The Crane Orchid ship, even if something unexpected happens, we can still retreat safely.
Additionally, I hope to keep this operation confidential, externally announcing it as just a routine combat drill to prevent unexpected contingencies.”
“Okay.”
Sun Li nodded in agreement.
Su Mo and Zi Qing turned and walked toward The Crane Orchid, with Zi Qing still a bit worried, she asked, “Isn’t this a bit too risky, shouldn’t we bring more people?”
“No need, I’m not planning to launch a full-scale assault on Sea Breeze Island.
I plan to use a slow and steady approach, clearing the monsters on the island bit by bit.
Although it will take more time, the advantage is that there will be much fewer casualties, especially since our manpower is dwindling.”
Su Mo shook his head.
“Sounds feasible, I’ll go gather the personnel now.”
Zi Qing took a deep breath, somewhat excitedly replied.
…
Several hours later, The Crane Orchid ship slowly set sail from the harbor, with Su Mo and Lin Zinuo amongst others standing on the deck, waving goodbye to the guild members.
“Have a safe journey!”
…
Once the ship had traveled far, Lin Zinuo curiously asked Su Mo, “Su Mo, why the sudden last-minute combat drill?
What is this mission about?”
“It’s confidential, you’ll know once we get there.”
Su Mo, with a good mood, responded while enjoying the sea breeze.
“Have you been getting too full of yourself lately?
Ask you something and you keep it a secret?
Believe it or not, I’ll take care of you.”
Lin Zinuo was also annoyed to the point of gritting her teeth; she suddenly realized that Su Mo had changed a lot from when they first met.
Although his EQ was still not high, at least he had smartened up a lot, and his tone was not so cold anymore.
“Alright, I won’t tease you, I’ll tell you.”
Seeing Lin Zinuo with a sulking face, Su Mo chuckled and then leaned in to whisper in Lin Zinuo’s ear.
“Sea Breeze Island.”
The warm breath close to her ear made Lin Zinuo’s body shiver slightly, turning her cheeks completely red.
She ran off somewhat flustered.
Seeing Lin Zinuo panic and run off, Su Mo was also baffled.
What was going on with Lin Zinuo lately?
Why did she seem a bit different, almost feminine?
…
———————————–
Several days later, The Crane Orchid reached the outskirts of Sea Breeze Island.
Zhou Qian and others, upon seeing Sea Breeze Island in the distance, were so shocked they couldn’t speak.
“Isn’t this Sea Breeze Island?
How did we end up here?”
Zi Qing cleared her throat and seriously said, “Everyone, be quiet.
Our mission target this time is Sea Breeze Island.
But rest assured, we are just in a supporting role; Su Mo will handle the main combat.”
“Isn’t that a bit too risky?”
Lin Zinuo said, somewhat worried.
“I know what I’m doing.
If things go south, I’ll retreat immediately,” Su Mo said.
“Alright, then you be careful.”
Lin Zinuo nodded, as if there were no other choice.
Su Mo turned to Zi Qing and said, “Don’t let The Crane Orchid get too close, and be careful of the Black Salamander Beast coming out of the sea.
I’ll pilot the Mecha first to scout the area.”
“Okay.”
Zi Qing nodded.
