"Please, you must save him."

Su Ming said decisively.

"Uh, Officer, if that’s the case, may I say something?"

"Speak!"

"If you definitely want to ensure there’s no risk of failure, you can send someone to the newly opened commercial street. There’s a drugstore there run by Vox Biointerstellar Group. Go buy a drug called SEC-03 cell vitality agent. It’s very expensive, but the effect is exceptionally good—just one injection! I can guarantee with one hundred percent certainty that it will definitely save the person."

"How much does that agent cost? Can’t the hospital issue it?"

Ankaga quickly pressed.

"300 million Federation Coins!"

Wu Li whispered in a lowered voice.

"Damn, it’s that expensive?"

Ankaga and Zhao Ying were dumbfounded upon hearing the price—it was as expensive as a Third Generation Mecha, truly a robbery.

No wonder the hospital didn’t have this kind of medication, and it had to be purchased personally.

"Ankaga, you go buy it!"

Su Ming immediately took out his bank card and handed it to Ankaga.

"Team leader, do you have enough money in your card? Do you need us to chip in?"

Ankaga asked worriedly.

"What’s there to chip in for? Hurry up and go buy it."

Su Ming replied, slightly annoyed.

"Yes!"

Ankaga immediately ran off.

Meanwhile, Su Ming and the others quietly waited.

About an hour later, Ankaga returned, carrying a very sophisticated refrigerated box.

"Team leader, I’ve bought it!"

Ankaga said, gasping for air.

"Good, go find Doctor Wu Li to administer the injection to Zhang Yi."

Su Ming urged Ankaga.

"Alright!"

Ankaga nodded and hurriedly complied.

A moment later, Su Ming stood before the transparent protective glass, watching Doctor Wu Li inject the drug into Zhang Yi’s body.

As the medication was administered, the values on the medical monitoring equipment shot up, soon reaching the safety threshold.

Wu Li heaved a sigh of relief as she observed the values displayed on the monitor.

She walked out of the ward and said to Su Ming,

"It’s fine now, all the vital signs are rising. Give us some time, and he’ll surely recover."

"Thank you for your hard work."

Su Ming also breathed a sigh of relief and expressed his gratitude to Wu Li.

"It’s my duty, Officer. I have other patients to attend to, if you’ll excuse me."

Wu Li politely finished speaking and hurried off.

"Expensive stuff really is good, just a pity it can’t be popularized."

Ankaga remarked involuntarily.

"How can it be popularized? The Federation would go bankrupt the day after they dared to make it widespread."

Su Ming replied calmly.

"True."

Ankaga replied, scratching his head.

---------------------------------------

Three days later.

Starshine Fortress·Cargo Bay.

Su Ming and Rhein, among others, stood on the metal viewing platform, looking down at the Iron Heads unloading crate after crate of materials.

"Wow, they’ve been unloading non-stop for three days and nights and it’s still not finished. There’s just too much material! I’ve heard that a lot of the transport machinery got scrapped over these days!"

Rhein exclaimed in astonishment.

"There’s nothing surprising about that. The Transfer Star is still alright, but that Hamms Planet Fortress is extraordinary—that’s an industry the Dark Star Empire has operated for hundreds of years."

Su Ming replied indifferently.

"Haha, we’ve really made a fortune on this trip. No, we’ve turned huge profits."

Rhein said, extremely excited.

"Don’t celebrate too early. We’ve plundered so much material from the Empire, they definitely won’t let it go easily."

"But there’s no sign of them attacking us."

"That I do not know."

Su Ming shook his head.

At this moment, a message suddenly vibrated on Su Ming’s wristband.

"Respected Major Su Ming, please immediately proceed to the Starshine Conference Hall. Your attendance is mandatory."

After reading the message, Su Ming said to Rhein and the others,

"You guys keep an eye on things here, I’m going to a meeting. Notify me immediately if something happens."

"Okay!"

Rhein and the others quickly nodded their acknowledgment.

...

Before long, Su Ming arrived at the castle and entered the Starshine Conference Hall.

The entire hall was bustling with excitement, with all officers of Lieutenant Colonel rank and above present, and everyone was whispering and chatting.

"Legion Commander Kaff, you’ve made great achievements this time! You not only crushed the Grey Gun Corps but also captured both Grey Gun Corps Commander Sailuka and Water Snake Corps Commander Bisaian."

Major Aragon praised effusively.

"Don’t say that. Without your strong support, it wouldn’t have been possible."

Kaff replied modestly.

"It still requires a commanding officer with your courage to lead!"

Major Aragon and others shook their heads.

Su Ming, watching this exchange, looked around the room.

He spotted Major Curry with a small mustache and Major Ye Hai with dark skin talking and approached them to greet them.

"Major Curry, Major Ye Hai! What are you talking about?"

"Ah! Major Su Ming, you’re here. We were just discussing you."

"Discussing me? What’s there to talk about?"

"You’re being modest. Heroes have always arisen from the young, and your performance was outstanding in this battle."

"Speaking of which, I haven’t had the chance to thank you two. If you hadn’t come to support us in time, our odds would have been very slim."

Su Ming said gratefully.

"Don’t be so modest. Even without us, considering the way the battle was going, you would have definitely won!"

"Let’s not talk hypothetically. If you hadn’t come to support us, even if we had won, all my men would have been killed. I owe you for this favor."

Su Ming replied with a wry smile.

Hearing Su Ming’s words, Curry and Ye Hai felt even more favorably towards him, so they cheerfully said,
