Chapter 1888: Chapter 1494: New Plan (Part 3)
Su Mo pondered for a moment before replying.
"What do you plan to do next? You’ve already absorbed the troops that could be merged. Are you going to deal with that batch of level 6 resources?"
The Creator Swallower discussed with Su Mo.
Su Mo mulled it over briefly, then responded to The Creator Swallower.
"No, those resources definitely can’t be processed; something will surely go wrong if we do. However, I have an immature idea—I’m not sure if it’s feasible?"
"Let’s hear it."
"How about we go salvage the Purgatory Heart? Bring that big guy back for repairs?"
Su Mo asked, feeling very tempted.
"Ambitious, but not impossible. However, you’d better verify it from multiple angles—like whether it can be repaired after bringing it back. Otherwise, it’ll be a joke if we spend a fortune on bringing it back only for it to be useless."
The Creator Swallower responded in a low voice.
"Cough, cough, makes sense. Forget it, let’s go home first."
Su Mo coughed lightly and replied.
Not long after, Su Mo piloted the Mad Eye Rhenhok and docked in the Immortal Blade’s No.1 hangar.
At this time, Qian Chengxue, Sun Duoxiang, Lan Xi, Vilic, and others were all waiting for him.
Su Mo opened the cockpit and jumped down, looking at so many people waiting for him, somewhat surprised, he said.
"You’re all here."
Qian Chengxue then walked up, gently touched Su Mo’s cheek, first looked left, then right, and then asked concernedly.
"Su Mo, are you injured?"
"No problem, it’s a small thing! Vilic, help me maintain the Mecha."
Su Mo shook his head and then instructed Vilic.
"No problem."
Vilic nodded in response.
"Boss, you’re on the headlines."
Sun Duoxiang winked and hurriedly reminded Su Mo.
"What headlines?"
Su Mo was slightly stunned, a little confused for a moment.
Sun Duoxiang was just about to continue when Qian Chengxue interrupted with a laugh, saying, "It’s nothing big, just someone bought the most expensive Moon Shadow Star in history for someone else and then got angry for love—a pretty big deal...."
Upon hearing this, Su Mo’s eyelids twitched. This news also got out? These paparazzi are too strong!
"Cough, cough, didn’t I give you a heads-up on this?"
"Yes, but it’s my first time seeing someone so generous."
Qian Chengxue laughed brightly.
"Public funds, these were public funds."
Su Mo broke out in a cold sweat.
"Really?"
"Of course it’s true, if you don’t believe it, I’ll show you the reimbursement records."
Su Mo hurriedly explained.
"No need, I trust you, just joking with you."
Qian Chengxue suddenly changed her tone, then laughed and replied.
Su Mo couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief at that moment, feeling as if he’d just escaped from the jaws of death. He then gathered his thoughts and spoke earnestly to Lin Zinuo.
"Zinuo, there’s something I’d like you to research for me."
"What is it?"
Lin Zinuo asked curiously.
Su Mo then tapped his electronic bracelet, opening a series of photos of Purgatory Heart, and showed them to Lin Zinuo.
"This is...."
Lin Zinuo was also stunned.
Qian Chengxue and the others gathered around to look at these photos, also shocked.
"This is a damaged fortress. Its main structure seems intact; from your professional point of view, can this fortress be repaired?"
Su Mo briefly explained the situation.
Lin Zinuo studied it intently, his eyes growing serious.
Su Mo waited quietly, and after about half an hour, Lin Zinuo said to Su Mo.
"According to what you’ve mentioned, and looking at these photos, this fortress can likely be repaired. Structurally, it appears to be a rare fortress; its pillars alone are priceless. You know, the concepts of fortresses and ships are essentially the same—as long as the keel is intact, repair is only a matter of time."
"Awesome!"
Su Mo couldn’t help but praise.
"However, there’s something I need to tell you. If you actually decide to repair this fortress, it will be an incredibly daunting endeavor. We’ll need a professional restoration team, enormous manpower, astronomical resources and funds, and a substantial amount of time—I estimate even the Federation couldn’t pull it off."
Lin Zinuo said with some difficulty.
"As long as it can be repaired, we can figure out the rest later."
Su Mo waved his hand in reply.
Qian Chengxue then asked curiously, "Su Mo, do you really intend to restore this fortress?"
"Yes, I’ve thought about it! We have so many resources on hand. If we can repair this fortress, our strength will greatly increase. In the future, no matter what crisis we encounter, we’ll at least have more confidence to face it. Furthermore, if we don’t develop now, we might get eliminated. A new era is upon us; everyone is desperately developing, and we can’t afford to fall behind."
Su Mo said with clarity and order.
"Alright, we’ll follow your lead. When do we set out?"
Qian Chengxue and the others responded.
"No rush on setting out; I need to organize things first."
Su Mo said simply.
"Alright!"

Not long after, Su Mo arrived at the administrative building in Star Ring City.
Along the way, the NCOs guarding saluted Su Mo.
Su Mo nodded slightly in response and walked straight in, heading to the third floor.
Though he came to report and simultaneously apply for a vacation.
Yet Su Mo felt inexplicably a bit nervous, wondering if Icaroya would give him trouble now?
Normally, after completing a task, they’d turn a blind eye for a while, right?
Su Mo kept reassuring himself that everything would be fine.
In fact, one major reason Su Mo was eager to salvage the Purgatory Heart was to escape Icaroya’s sight for a while, so he wouldn’t get into trouble while lingering around her every day.
