Chapter 567 Fermentation (Second update)
"Sister Xue, would you like to have a cup of coffee and some pastries? There seems to be a nice afternoon tea shop over there."
"Okay, it's still early."
Qian Chengxue checked the time on her phone and nodded slightly.
Su Mo looked left and right and found a pretty good location.
"Just over there. You go and sit down first, and I'll order."
"Okay."
Qian Chengxue replied.
Su Mo then walked towards the shop selling afternoon tea, where there were many people buying.
Su Mo waited in line very consciously.
Just when Su Mo was idle and bored, he suddenly heard a group of big men wearing mechanical armors instead of military uniforms chatting next to him.
They don't dress like people from the GT department.
"Did you hear that the leader of Zone Z has been replaced, and Wang Hai has been pushed down? I have said it before, there will be problems sooner or later."
"That's right. During the offensive and defensive battle of the Battle of Planet Imperial City, he was the one who interfered in everything. He had to force us to hand over resources, which caused us to suffer heavy losses. Otherwise, we would have made a lot of money from just that reserve."
"Don't say that, Wang Hai is still very strong."
"He is strong, but Su Mo is not weak either? And I heard that one of the big reasons why Wang Hai was not allowed to participate this time is that he can't even control his own mecha. Look at that one again Su Mo, I heard that he controls the mecha as if it were for fun. The two of them will definitely fight each other. It’s definitely something to watch.”
"Who do you think will win?"
"It's hard to say."
Su Mo frowned. He felt that there was something wrong with the direction of public opinion. It was obvious that he and Wang Hai had a good relationship.
It tastes bad in these guys' mouths, as if they're going to strangle one of them.
"What do you want, sir?"
Unknowingly, Su Mo had moved to the front of the queue, and a very young waitress asked with a smile.
"Two cups of coffee and some of these pastries."
Su Mo clicked casually, and his good mood was completely gone.
"Okay, sir, please wait a moment."
After a while, Su Mo returned to the resting seat with afternoon tea.
Qian Chengxue looked at Su Mo's frown and asked in confusion: "What happened? Why do you feel that your face is not very good?"
“I don’t know who spread the rumor, but it seems that Wang Hai and I are at odds.”
Su Mo replied in a low voice.
"This is not a good thing. It might have a certain impact on you. You must know that Brother Wang Hai has a high prestige in the military."
Qian Chengxue said worriedly.
"I also know, forget it, let's not talk about this. You can't control others' mouths, and the more clarified this matter is, the more troublesome it will be."
Su Mo also had a headache the more he thought about it, and he was too lazy to say anything more.
"Well, let's have some pastries."
Seeing that Su Mo was in a bad mood, Qian Chengxue didn't say much.
Just when the two were enjoying a rare leisure time, suddenly there was a commotion ahead.
At least more than a third of the people in the entire lounge stood up and gathered in one direction.
"Quick, hurry up."
More and more people were getting up.
Su Mo and Qian Chengxue glanced at each other, then stood up and followed them to have a look.
I saw a group of people walking over from another corner of the lounge. They were uniformly wearing special mechanical armor similar to skirts, which was very eye-catching.
Su Mo recognized him at a glance. Wasn't he from the Acer Empire?
He looked carefully and saw that Jialan was in the lead.
At this moment, her long blue hair was hanging loose, and her extremely outstanding appearance made her extremely dazzling and easily became the center of attention.
But what Su Mo cared about most was that there was a white mechanical ball with a pair of small mechanical wings floating next to Jia Lan.
The surface of this mechanical ball is painted with separate colors, making it very kawaii.
"Is that the remnant of the Acer Empire?"
"What remnants? They are now federal government, specially awarded nobles, enjoy privileged status, and are noble."
"I heard about this exploration mission. Is this the information they provided?"
"That's right, you didn't see many people going up there to try their luck and see if they can get some information from it."
"Look, isn't that Lord Thulis?"
Gentleman Thuris stepped forward and said to Jialan: "Hello, Miss Jialan, I am Thuris. I am honored to see you here. Can I buy you a cup of coffee?"
Jialan replied coldly: "Thank you Lord Thulis for your kindness, but no need, I'm just taking a rest here and leaving soon."
She had no intention of communicating with Thulis.
Although Jialan and Su Mo were very friendly when communicating, that was based on Jialan's recognition of Su Mo. Years of living underground have left her with a strong hostility towards strangers.
"It doesn't matter for a while."
Thulis did not intend to give up. This time he was exploring the ruins of the Titan clan, and he was bound to get it, so he was in urgent need of first-hand information.
Because he knew a secret that no one knew. This secret he accidentally heard from the Vice President of Augustolas.
After the Black Glory returns successfully, the Federation will be open to the public. At that time, everyone will be free to explore the star sea, collect resources to the maximum extent, and strengthen the federation.
The reason why there was no large-scale opening up at the beginning was because resources, ships, and intelligence were limited, so we could only focus on development and stability.
So now he wants to obtain as many resources as possible. When the big opening comes, these will be the cornerstones for them to step into the star sea.
At this time, the mechanical ball floating next to Jialan suddenly spoke: "You don't understand human speech. I already told you that I don't want to drink coffee with you. Get away quickly. Don't think about the toad wanting to eat swan meat." ! ”
Thulis was also stunned, looking at the mechanical ball in front of him in great surprise. What the hell is this thing that looks so cute but speaks so ugly?
The onlookers present were also stunned, as someone dared to mock Thulis like this.
But they immediately realized that it was not a person but an intelligent machine.
Some people really wanted to laugh, but no one dared to laugh out loud, and it was very uncomfortable to hold back.
At this time, Thuris also came back to his senses. He was not angry. It was just a trivial matter. He replied calmly and calmly.
"Since it's inconvenient for Miss Jialan, let's leave it next time."
After Thulis finished speaking, he turned around and prepared to leave. The exploration mission had just started not long ago, so there was plenty of time to take it slow. He can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, but he still understands this truth.
"The conversation with Lord Thulis failed. Should we give it a try?"
"Forget it, it's okay to be rejected. But that mechanical ball is not an ordinary venomous person. With so many people watching, I must be embarrassed."
"Yes, look, someone else is up there."
"Who is that? He looks a little unfamiliar."
Su Mo and Qian Chengxue stepped forward.
"Miss Jialan."
Su Mo greeted slightly surprised. (End of chapter)
