Chapter 1865: Chapter 1489: Astonishment
The next day, Su Mo followed the indicated address and arrived at the northwest corner of the first ring in Star Ring City, where a gigantic white dome building was situated.
Right at the entrance, two V generation pure mechanical mechas, Star Guards, were standing watch.
If his guess was correct, this should indeed be the highest training facility in Star Ring City.
The two Star Guards at the sight of Su Mo, immediately raised their hands in salute, and then stepped aside to clear the way.
Su Mo nodded slightly and walked in.
The interior decorations of the training ground were very luxurious and advanced, with black-patterned crystal bricks laid on the ground. As he walked in, he could see transparent training rooms situated on either side.
These training rooms were used for mecha combat training, shooting and physical fitness training, covering all training programs comprehensively.
School-level and General-level officers could be seen training with utmost focus in each of the training rooms.
Su Mo couldn’t help but feel some admiration; to become an officer in Star Ring City, there was truly none who wasn’t exceptional.
It wasn’t long before Su Mo arrived at the entrance within the training facility.
The soldier on duty scanned Su Mo with a special device in his hand, confirmed his identity, then saluted and stepped aside.
Su Mo walked straight in, where he immediately saw Xia Weiya, Herbert, and the others.
It seemed they had arrived earlier, and only he was the last to join.
However, Su Mo felt the atmosphere was a bit unusual, as Xia Weiya, Bagley, Loren were standing together.
Kux, Herbert, Molock, and others were grouped, while Ai Lu and Leo stood alone together.
Su Mo roughly glanced over and saw that Herbert and his group represented the Mechanical Empire and their close associates. Xia Weiya represented the Laurel Kingdom, while Ai Lu and the others were likely from the Second Birthplace.
From the proportions, the First Birthplace held an absolute advantage in the Royal Order’s seats.
As for the Third Birthplace, it seemed only Su Mo was present.
"Su Mo, why are you so late, it’s such a rare training opportunity, and you didn’t come earlier?"
Upon seeing Su Mo, Xia Weiya greeted him with a smile.
Su Mo then walked over and said to Xia Weiya, "The time is still early, isn’t it? No need to be so eager."
Hearing Su Mo’s words, Xia Weiya was slightly taken aback, then rolled her eyes at him.
"VI generation biological mecha training equipment is normally not available to us. It’s extremely difficult to even touch it. And if the training goes well, and you satisfy the Icaroya City Lord, the VI generation biological mecha’s distribution and usage rights might prioritize you. Just like this time with the Eternal Sleep clan decapitation operation, Herbert and his team really had a significant advantage."
Su Mo heard a faint note of resentment in Xia Weiya’s tone. It seemed she was still holding a grudge over the previous merit recognition. Although his relations with the Mechanical Empire weren’t great, they weren’t too hostile either, so he just awkwardly smiled.
At this time, Herbert and the others also cast their gaze towards Su Mo.
"That Su Mo seems to be very close to Xia Weiya, he might even defect to the Laurel Kingdom."
Molock deliberately teased.
"That kid is very strong, and until he clearly defects, don’t cause him trouble. Besides, there’s no need for more words, I know Su Mo spared Tilo, taking down Derek, and developed quite a feud with your Dinova Kingdom. But you also need to reflect; knowing Su Mo protected Tilo and his group, engaging in those petty tricks would inevitably lead to retaliation."
Herbert said flatly.
Molock’s expression twitched upon hearing this, but he said no more, knowing Herbert wasn’t someone who could easily be incited.
Just then, the sound of footsteps approached.
Su Mo and the others turned to look, and saw Icaroya and Lady Goli entering, with Crock respectfully following behind.
"Lord Icaroya, Lady Goli."
The crowd’s expressions turned serious, and they respectfully greeted.
"Hmm!"
Icaroya nodded in reply and efficiently issued the command, "Everyone, change into training gear, training starts soon."
After listening, they all headed towards the changing rooms on either side.
Icaroya and Lady Goli headed towards the observation deck on the second floor of the training area, while Crock stayed behind to join the training.
While changing clothes, Su Mo, with a headache, communicated with the Creator · Swallower.
"This is troublesome, I just trained yesterday, and I’m not in a good state now."
"Watch and wait, if you can skip training, do so,"
The Creator · Swallower felt something was off too.
Before long, Su Mo and the other male members had finished changing into fitted training suits and walked out first. Bagley patted his shoulder excitedly and said.
"Brother, how long do you think you can last on your first training?"
"How would I know, I haven’t trained before, how long can you last?"
Su Mo joked in response.
"I haven’t trained either. Among us twelve from the Royal Order, only Crock, Kux, and Herbert have trained before, you can tell by the confidence they exude."
Bagley said somewhat enviously.
Following Bagley’s gaze, Su Mo saw Herbert seriously explaining some precautions to Molock and the others in advance.
"The training equipment mainly conditions you against mental and physical contamination, so don’t force it. If you feel you can’t last, decisively give up, there’s nothing to be ashamed of..."
Seeing this, Su Mo couldn’t help but fall into deep thought.
