Destiny Mission of game 'Star Ring'

Chapter 31: Chapter 31 Departure



In fact, Su Mo had originally planned to part ways with Lan Xi in the safe zone. But then, after the stirring-up by that shit-stirrer Tang Zhi, he knew that Lan Xi would definitely not be able to get along in the guild anymore. Just as well, he was short a pair of hands to help him with the sundries, to take care of logistics. Through observation over the past few days, he had realized this was indeed a team game. If one were to work alone, the limitations were too high and it was very energy-consuming.

So, at the time of separation, Su Mo had never told Lan Xi that the team had been disbanded from start to finish.

"No, there's none."

Lan Xi showed a delighted smile.

"What's so great about that, just a bunch of like-minded folks, huh? You guys are only two people after all, what can you do? You should know that this is a team game."

Tang Zhi mocked with displeasure.

"Heh, you're right, it is like-minded indeed. But what I want to tell you is that those with a clean heart see everything as clean. Those with a dirty heart see and speak of everything as dirty. Since all misunderstandings have been clarified, apologies have been made, and punishments have been accepted, yet you still refuse to let things go, you're truly low. If there really is something wrong, it's that we gave you lot, the petty ones, the opportunity for slander and taking things out of context."

Su Mo turned his head to glance at Tang Zhi, immediately scaring her so much she couldn't help but step back.

"You...."

After stepping back, Tang Zhi instantly felt extremely embarrassed, her face turned hot, and her hatred intensified.

At this moment, from a distance, Sun Duoxiang and others kept stealing glances at Su Mo. After getting back to the guild, Sun Duoxiang thought it over and felt that Su Mo was still the most reliable. So, during this time, he did nothing but keep an eye on Su Mo, to see if he had any new moves.

Standing next to Sun Duoxiang was someone else, no other than Chen Xin, an executive of the Wuji Guild.

He spoke softly to Sun Duoxiang, "Brother, I'm very optimistic about your big bro, and I know you really want to act with him. I support you unconditionally in this regard. Get as close to him as possible, see if you can pull him into the guild. If you can do it, the guild will definitely promote you and give you a big reward."

"Really? Okay, okay, I'll do my best."

Although Sun Duoxiang verbally agreed, he inwardly sneered. Like hell I will! Although the Wuji Guild isn't bad, that's just for the average person. Someone like Su Mo, a top-level master, would be coveted by any top-tier guild, how could he just join any guild, not to mention Su Mo's cold nature.

"Go on, I have faith in you."

Chen Xin gave Sun Duoxiang an encouraging gesture.

Sun Duoxiang then led Zhang Hao and a few others toward Su Mo and Lan Xi.

"Wow, what a coincidence..."

Sun Duoxiang showed a sleazy smile, pretending to have a chance encounter.

Su Mo couldn't be bothered to expose Sun Duoxiang; he had noticed long ago that the latter had been following him around, creating coincidental meetings.

On this world, how could there be so many coincidences?

Su Mo asked indifferently.

"What's up."

"Hey, are you guys planning to go out on an adventure or something? Take us with you."

Sun Duoxiang rubbed his hands together, saying cheerfully.

"Not taking you."

"Why not?"

"You're too clumsy, only a hindrance."

Su Mo didn't even think about it before he gave a direct reply.

If someone else had said this, Sun Duoxiang and the others would definitely have exploded with anger. But coming from Su Mo's mouth, it was different, because comparatively, they really were rubbish, so they could only grin sheepishly. Internally they were also complaining furiously: Damn it, if we weren't rubbish, would we need to curry favor so shamelessly?

Tang Zhi, standing to the side, looked towards Sun Duoxiang and noticed that their clothing bore the Wuji Guild's insignia, a little martial person's motif, showing that their clothes were uniformly made before coming in. She couldn't help but show a schadenfreude expression on her face, thinking to herself.

"Daring to insult the people of the Wuji Guild, let's see how you deal with this."

Compared to the Dream Guild, the Wuji Guild was much stronger. Even in this safe zone, the Wuji Guild was considered quite prominent.

The result was a scene that left her completely taken aback, as Sun Duoxiang responded with a smile.

"Big bro, we know we're pretty rubbish, so please look after us. Don't worry, if you tell me to go east, I'll go east without any hesitation."

"No need, you've already got a guild, so stick with your guildmates, right? Besides, we agreed before that once we reached the safe zone, we'd go our separate ways."

Su Mo flatly rejected the offer. Sun Duoxiang and Lan Xi were somewhat different, after all. This guy was from the Wuji Guild, and he seemed to be doing alright, clearly here to rope him in. By contrast, Lan Xi was genuinely marginalized.

True to form as a sharp individual, Sun Duoxiang sensed the reason behind Su Mo's refusal. Just as he had expected, the latter didn't want to get too entangled with the guild, so he pleaded with a smile.

"Big bro, the guys in the guild are nowhere near as reliable as you. Besides, following you has much more prospects than staying with a guild. Please take me with you, we've still got some muscle to offer."

After a little thought and several considerations, Su Mo realized he indeed needed some manpower. Sun Duoxiang and his bunch, although not very capable, were obedient, and Su Mo had some understanding of them and could rely on them to an extent.

"Alright then, since you're so keen to follow, suit yourself."

Su Mo was too lazy to keep arguing with him.

"Thank you."

Sun Duoxiang agreed without a second thought.

"Let's go!"

Su Mo said decisively.

Sun Duoxiang and his group happily followed Su Mo and Lan Xi.

Leaving Tang Zhi and the others utterly irritated but helpless.

Soon the seven of them arrived at an unoccupied corner of the safe zone. Su Mo took stock of the hastily assembled team, which consisted of Sun Duoxiang, Lan Xi, Zhang Hao, Ma Ke, Liu Xi, and Qin Dou, aside from himself.

"Our target this time is a building in the southwestern suburbs, roughly ten kilometers away in a straight line."

Su Mo announced to everyone.

"That far! Big bro, are you sure that's no mistake?"

Sun Duoxiang and the others couldn't help but take a sharp intake of breath. Nowadays, most teams venturing out from the safe zone on scouting missions wouldn't go beyond a two-kilometer range.

The farther they ran, the higher the likelihood of incidents, and there would be no time to get back to the safe zone.

"No mistake. This building is quite unique, and the yield is expected to be good."

Su Mo responded with certainty.

"I'm not worried about the yield. The key is how we get there. Are we going to drive over?"

Sun Duoxiang asked, somewhat confused.

"No driving. It's too dangerous, and it would attract swarms of zombies and mutants, so we'll have to walk."

"Uh, how do we walk?"

"As for the route, that's not your concern. Just follow me closely. I've planned out a route that'll avoid large groups of zombies and monsters and areas crowded with players as much as possible."

Su Mo replied nonchalantly.

"No wonder you're the big bro, truly awesome."

Upon hearing Su Mo's words, Sun Duoxiang couldn't stop grinning.

"That's right, with your words, big bro, we've got the confidence."

Zhang Hao and the others chimed in one after another.
