139: Chapter 139: Secrets (Extra for League Leader Bing Shan Mu Xue) (43rd update) 139: Chapter 139: Secrets (Extra for League Leader Bing Shan Mu Xue) (43rd update) “Big brother, you forgot, we all joined the Wuji Guild, and the Wuji Guild’s headquarters are right here.
There was a requirement; everyone needed to show up in person, and accommodation is provided, though the environment isn’t great,” Sun Duoxiang explained to Su Mo.
At this point, Su Mo turned his head to look at Zhang Hao and Ma Ke, somewhat surprised, he asked.
“Wait, how come neither of you two were sacrificed?”
Generally speaking, if players were sacrificed, there was no need for them to be physically managed anymore.
“Lucky, I almost perished, but fortunately escaped by the skin of my teeth.”
Zhang Hao and Ma Ke recalled the previous zombie tide; they both still had goosebumps.
Those who couldn’t escape had been dismembered by those monsters.
The scene was incredibly gruesome. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on novel-fire.ɴet
“Hmm, that’s not bad.”
Su Mo was a bit relieved; he had assumed they had perished as well.
Soon, the door to the private room was pushed open; Xiao Lian came in with several servers and placed a series of piping hot dishes on the table.
The most striking among them was a dish of hand-pulled big bones.
Xiao Lian couldn’t help but take an extra glance at Su Mo; she was curious about who could so firmly hold Sun Duoxiang, this slippery guy, in check.
She rarely saw this guy being respectful towards anyone.
However, she still couldn’t see what was so special about Su Mo; his clothing and accessories were quite ordinary, though he was handsome.
“Xiao Lian, as soon as the dishes are served, please don’t let anyone disturb us.”
Xiao Lian also showed great respect for Sun Duoxiang; she led the staff out and casually hung a ‘do not disturb’ sign on the doorknob.
“Big brother, try the hand-pulled big bones here; although the ingredients aren’t that great, the taste is absolutely superb,” Sun Duoxiang said, ready to serve a piece to Su Mo.
“I’ll do it myself, just tell me what it is directly,” Su Mo calmly asked.
Sun Duoxiang revealed an awkward smile and then told Su Mo, “Big brother, although we were lucky enough to survive, it’s really suffocating mixing in the Wuji Guild.
Can we three follow you?”
Zhang Hao and the other guy looked pitifully at Su Mo.
Sun Duoxiang really had no other choice; he was incredibly unlucky, having barely achieved a bit of success in the Wuji Guild.
Then his immediate superior, Chen Xin, died, leading to his marginalization as well.
“No,” Su Mo said, picking up a piece of meat bone and responding while eating.
“Big brother, you’re not still angry about that past incident, are you?” Sun Duoxiang asked with a mournful face.
“It’s not that,” Su Mo replied succinctly.
“Then why can’t we follow you?” Sun Duoxiang urgently asked.
“I’m now blending in with the Dawn Guild as a regular combatant, just experiencing life.
I came out this time with nothing, no money, how can I let you follow me?
But speaking of that, wasn’t it your idea I try this ‘experiencing life’?
It’s really not bad, I find it quite interesting, at least it’s not too dull,” Su Mo earnestly replied, truly grateful for Sun Duoxiang’s suggestion.
He had said more in these days than in the first twenty-odd years of his life.
At least he wouldn’t just be sitting alone in a daze, unsure of what to do next.
Sun Duoxiang, after listening to Su Mo’s words, was petrified and couldn’t utter a single word.
This guy really went to experience life.
He came back to his senses, somewhat wanting to cry without tears; was this not like lifting a rock only to drop it on his own foot?
He had truly brought a rich man into the pit.
Clearly, Big Brother was now thriving in the Dawn Guild, exuding an aura of pomp and saw it all over the forum posts.
If he had known this would happen, he would have gritted his teeth, left the Wuji Guild, paid the penalty, and joined Su Mo in the Dawn Guild from the start.
Unfortunately, there’s no medicine for regret in this world.
Zhang Hao and Ma Ke were also at a loss for words for a long time.
Seeing the dumbfounded expressions on Sun Duoxiang and the others, Su Mo asked, “Tell me, aside from this matter, what else did you come here for?”
Sun Duoxiang and the others immediately snapped out of it.
He quickly got back into the right state of mind, leaned in, and whispered to Su Mo.
“Here’s the thing, Zhang Hao and Ma Ke accidentally discovered an underground, highly secretive biochemical base in a very hidden area while fleeing for their lives.
According to our observations and analysis, this biochemical base is of a very high level.”
Su Mo was absolutely astonished after hearing Sun Duoxiang’s words.
He called him over just because they had found a base?
“Big brother, don’t doubt us; we’re serious.”
Seeing Su Mo’s lack of reaction, Sun Duoxiang hurriedly promised.
Su Mo pondered for a while and then asked, “Why didn’t you report this to the Wuji Guild?
This should have been a great contribution.”
It wasn’t that Su Mo didn’t believe Sun Duoxiang, but discovering a base usually rewarded well by the guilds.
At this point, Sun Duoxiang immediately started pouring out his grievances to Su Mo.
“Don’t even mention it, big brother.
Since Chen Xin died, the new supervisor is absolutely inhuman, assigning all the dirty and tiring tasks to us.
That could still be endured, but the worst is he always sends us on very dangerous missions.
We almost died several times, and the most outrageous part is he also finds excuses to deduct our salaries.”
Since Chen Xin’s death, Sun Duoxiang had completely lost his trust in the Wuji Guild.
“Hmm, and you’re not afraid of getting caught?”
Su Mo asked with great interest.
“So what if we get caught?
But that’s only during work hours; we also have time off, and doing some private work outside of work hours is perfectly normal, right?
They can’t rule on that, and besides, we’re not leaking any top secrets of the guild.
It was our discovery.
But, there is something to be cautious about; we shouldn’t die while doing this private job, as that would be a violation and might lead to some punishment.
But never mind, we’ve decided to go all out this time.”
Sun Duoxiang quickly explained to Su Mo.
“Exactly, we’re going all out!”
Zhang Hao and Ma Ke also echoed passionately, quite frustrated.
Su Mo opened his mouth and said, “Do you have any video footage?
“Yes, we especially recorded it at that time.”
Zhang Hao quickly took out his phone and started the video.
Su Mo and the four of them gathered around, intently watching the video.
The Crane Orchid was bustling with activity, and many new crew members were intrigued as Zi Qing introduced the ship.
“This Crane Orchid will now be our main ship.
It’s powered by nuclear fission, allowing it to operate continuously at sea for a long time.
As long as the supplies are sufficient, we don’t need to worry too much about the voyage.”
“And now, you will become a part of this ship.
Starting today, Han Na and other veterans from the Sea Battle Group will be your captains.
They will guide you, acquainting you with your respective duties.
Train hard and do not squander this opportunity that many dream of.”
