Destiny Mission of game 'Star Ring'-Chapter 1568 - 1249: Thief

"You don’t need to worry about this. I know what to do."

Korlein snorted coldly, ignoring Horien and leaving directly.

Horien stopped in his tracks, turned his head to look at Su Mo, with a hint of even more resentment in his eyes.

...

However, Su Mo had no interest in dealing with them at the moment. He was focused on Commander Kellaras.

At this time, Commander Kellaras got up, ready to leave the banquet hall.

Seeing this, Su Mo followed him.

When Commander Kellaras reached a relatively quiet area with no people, Su Mo circled in front of him, blocking him.

"Commander Kellaras."

Su Mo saluted him.

Commander Kellaras, seeing Su Mo blocking his path, furrowed his brows, his rugged face twitching slightly.

"Su Mo, why are you stopping me?"

"Commander Kellaras, I’m here to repay the money."

Su Mo swiftly raised his electronic bracelet and scanned Commander Kellaras’ electronic bracelet, transferring 10 trillion Star Coins.

This sum was meant to repay the debt from the verdict back then.

Although ten years hadn’t passed yet, seeing Commander Kellaras in such need, Su Mo decided to repay the debt early.

Commander Kellaras glanced at the incoming transaction details on his bracelet, his expression shifting between surprise and animosity.

Su Mo then bowed to Commander Kellaras and sincerely apologized, "I’m sorry, I deeply regret the trouble caused to you back then, but I truly had no other choice at that time."

"Hmph."

Commander Kellaras snorted coldly, without saying more.

Seeing this, Su Mo prepared to leave. He said to Commander Kellaras, "I’ll take my leave then."

Just as Su Mo was about to leave, suddenly Commander Kellaras spoke abruptly to him.

"At this time, you still have time to idle here? Hurry up and prepare your mecha. The Royal Order’s selection is about to start. The selection is very realistic; if your mecha isn’t up to par, no matter how strong you are, it’s useless."

Su Mo stood stunned on the spot, just about to say something.

Commander Kellaras turned around and left directly.

Su Mo gazed at Kellaras’ departing figure, lost in thought.

The deep voice of the creator Swallower echoed in Su Mo’s mind.

"He’s leaking information to you; the Royal Order’s selection is about to start."

"I know, the problem is it’s troublesome. My mecha is not ready yet."

Su Mo was also in a headache.

"This time, when you return and deliver the task to the old man, urge him."

The creator Swallower said deeply to Su Mo.

"It can only be like this; try your best."

Su Mo responded helplessly.

"You should aim to secure a position among the Royal Order of Twelve Knights. Although I know you don’t care much, having this identity will make many things much easier. The most important point is that the higher your identity, the less likely you are to be treated as cannon fodder!"

The creator Swallower said deeply.

"I got it, let’s go back and rest first."

Su Mo sighed and replied.

...

Inside the A1 area hangar.

A stealthy figure skillfully evaded the cameras overhead.

Silently, he fumbled in a certain direction.

At this time, the spacious hangar was void of people, with only a few patrol guards occasionally passing by.

Looking closely, one would find that the stealthy figure was a slender youth.

The youth also carried a special jamming device.

Quickly, he maneuvered to the private hangar area, locking onto his target instantly.

Looking at the towering Biological Mecha, and then the mechanical storage box beside it — a regular model mechanical storage box — a look of excitement appeared on his face.

He swiftly approached.

Soon, he was in front of the mechanical storage box.

Without saying a word, he took out a portable tool from his pocket and prepared to crack the mechanical key.

At this moment, a huge shadow enveloped him.

He immediately sensed something was wrong as the surroundings darkened, instinctively raising his head.

Only to see Domak, who had been lying behind the mechanical box, awakened, gazing at the unwelcome visitor and opening its huge maw with a roar!

"Roar!"

"Ah!"

The youth, seeing the terrifying Domak, instantly turned pale with fear, his body stiffening as he toppled backward.

Bang!

...

In the room, Su Mo lay on the bed, sleeping soundly.

Knock knock!

Suddenly, a clear knocking sound echoed.

"Who is it?"

Su Mo abruptly opened his eyes, got up, and walked toward the door.

As the door opened, Su Mo was stunned, seeing five fully armed soldiers standing in front of him. Leading them was none other than Sangni, whom Su Mo had encountered at the interstellar airport.

"Commander Su Mo."

"What’s happened?"

Su Mo asked, puzzled.

Sangni, somewhat troubled, said to Su Mo, "Commander Su Mo, please come with us; it seems your pet has killed someone." 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

"Killed someone? Let’s go and see."

Su Mo was very surprised.

Soon, Su Mo and the others arrived at the hangar, finding it unusually lively, surrounded by many people. Also, many Fake V Generation Mechas from the Laurel Kingdom had been deployed, seemingly to prevent any mishaps.

"Why are there so many people?"

Su Mo frowned.

"Part of them are family members of the deceased, while some are just here to watch the excitement."

Sangni explained.

"They really love drama."

Su Mo couldn’t help but quip.

At this moment, those family members of the deceased saw Su Mo and excitedly rushed over.

"You murderer!"

However, they were all stopped by the people from Laurel Kingdom.

"This way, please."

Sangni respectfully said to Su Mo.

Su Mo didn’t say much, having realized that Sangni was obviously favoring him, but Su Mo’s mood wasn’t particularly good.

If it was indeed Domak’s fault, he wouldn’t avoid responsibility.

Soon, they arrived at the scene, where Domak lay, while the corpse lay before it.

The problem was that no one dared to approach.

Domak, seeing Su Mo approaching, was very happy, chirping excitedly.

Su Mo couldn’t help but ask the creator Swallower, "Xiao Shi, what is it saying?"

"It says it caught a thief."

The creator Swallower replied coldly.

Upon hearing Xiao Shi’s words, Su Mo’s tense brows instantly relaxed. He originally thought Domak had gone out of control and killed someone, but it turned out to be a thief, which was a different matter.

So he turned to Sangni and said.

"This person seems suspicious; what was he doing sneaking around my hangar? Most likely a thief. This should be easy to verify, just search him and we’ll know."

"Okay."

Sangni nodded, then waved her hand.

A soldier, repressing his fear, came forward to inspect the body.

Sure enough, they found quite a few tools.

"Lord Sangni, there really are lock-picking tools, and even a jammer."

Sangni then said to Su Mo, "It seems the other party’s actions were indeed dubious."

"How should this matter be handled?"

Su Mo asked directly.
