Chapter 1507: Chapter 1507 - 506: Grey Angel_2
"Honorable Admiral Su Ming, your accumulated military achievements have reached 107,567 points, meeting the minimum standard for a General, and you have automatically entered the review process."
...
"So many military achievements?"
Su Ming looked at this information, a rather surprised expression appearing on his face.
Long Bai took a tray from the bookshelf behind him, on which lay a brand new Grand General Uniform.
"I now officially appoint you as the Federation’s Honorary General, to follow City Lord Long Chen on a diplomatic mission to Saint Joex."
"Alright!"
Su Ming took a deep breath and reached out to take the Grand General Uniform.
"Due to the current special circumstances, we can’t give you a medal ceremony. Once the Federation stabilizes, we’ll make it up to you."
"Hmm!"
"This diplomatic mission is extremely arduous. You must find a way to retrieve the Eternal Metal that exists in Saint Joex and other Sixth Rank rare metals. These materials are crucial to us and impact the Federation’s future."
"Understood!"
"Also, you must not engage in any conflicts with Saint Joex; you must peacefully retrieve these items. The people of Saint Joex are not as weak as they appear on the surface, especially their leader, the Moke Duo Clan Leader of Morris Interstellar Bank; he is very cunning. Keep in mind that those who can root themselves in the three major forces, infiltrate various industries, and openly extract gray funds, will not foolishly place their own safety in the hands of others. Thus, their apparent weakness is only meant to deceive others."
"Understood, the people of Saint Joex purchase weapons from us annually in astronomical numbers, and they don’t just purchase from us alone."
Su Ming nodded and replied.
"That’s right. This time, you and Long Chen will be on a mission to Saint Joex to retrieve resources. If you have the opportunity, help me find out what these people are up to. As far as I know, they seem to be plotting something."
Long Bai instructed Su Ming.
"Alright!"
Su Ming nodded in agreement.
"By the way, Su Ming, did you lose your Candle Dragon Mecha?"
"Yes, it was stolen by the Clos Sect Leader of the Mechanical Sect."
"Currently, the Federation’s VI Generation Standard Mecha is not yet in production. Once it’s completed, I will allocate one to you. For now, use the Biological Mecha!"
"Alright!"
"Also, on this mission, if you encounter any problems, let Long Chen and his team handle them. Only use the Biological Mecha as a last resort."
Long Bai instructed Su Ming.
"Understood!"
Su Ming nodded.
At that moment, Long Bai took a dark gold bracelet off his own wrist, raised Su Ming’s left hand, and placed the dark gold bracelet on his wrist.
"What’s this?"
Su Ming was momentarily taken aback.
"This is my V Generation Reproductive Armor·Dragon Scale, and I’m giving it to you now. Pay attention to your safety during this mission to Saint Joex. When you return safely, I will personally host a grand ceremony for your medal and promotion!"
Long Bai softly instructed Su Ming.
"Alright!"
Su Ming returned with a smile.
Knock, knock!
At that moment, there was a knocking sound.
Long Bai took a step back, then spoke.
"Come in."
Creaaak~
The door opened, Long Chen walked in, and respectfully greeted Long Bai.
"Lord Long Bai!"
"Hmm, this is the agreement the Federation signed with Saint Joex. It must be kept safe without any mistakes."
Long Bai opened a drawer, took out a file folder, and handed it to Long Chen.
"Understood!"
"Alright, everything is entrusted to you both."
Long Bai said to Long Chen and Su Ming.
"Yes, General Su Ming, let’s go!"
Long Chen turned to Su Ming and said with a smile.
"Hmm."
Su Ming saluted Long Bai and turned to leave with Long Chen.
As they left the office and walked down the corridor, Long Chen also smiled and congratulated Su Ming.
"Congratulations to General Su Ming for his promotion to General!"
"Thank you."
Su Ming politely replied.
"This diplomatic mission to Saint Joex will rely heavily on General Su Ming."
Long Chen said with a grin.
"Lord Long Chen, you jest. The journey to Saint Joex will greatly depend on your efforts."
Su Ming replied modestly.
"Well said!"
Seeing Su Ming’s modest and courteous demeanor, Long Chen admired him all the more and replied with a smile.
...
Not long after, Long Chen and Su Ming took a hovercar to the interstellar airport.
A Level 5 Mother Ship·Pulika, over 260 kilometers long, with a triangular bow and a slender, wide, thick body, covered entirely with a thick layer of black metal armor, densely packed with countless launch ports, came into view.
Long Chen and Su Ming headed straight for the main access entrance.
"This ship is impressive. Are we taking this ship to Saint Joex?"
Su Ming asked, looking at the Level 5 Mother Ship·Pulika.
"No, I’m taking you to a different place."
Long Chen said with a smile.
"Alright!"
Su Ming didn’t ask further.
Quickly, the two boarded the Level 5 Mother Ship·Pulika, which activated its anti-gravity device, slowly ascending and heading towards the sky.
....
Soon after, ripples appeared in the pitch-black starry sky as the Level 5 Mother Ship·Pulika exited subspace.
On the Pulika’s observation deck.
Su Ming and Long Chen stood side by side, gazing at the distant starry sky.
A gray planet, heavily armed with numerous defensive weapons and ships, came into view.
Su Ming looked at the heavily guarded planet in surprise and said.
"Isn’t that Tianlan Star?"
"Yes! It’s the largest production planet of the Federation and also one of the few planets under special control."
Long Chen introduced to Su Ming.
"Hmm!"
Su Ming nodded.
The Mother Ship rapidly flew towards Tianlan Star, with patrol ships and Mech Formations along the way giving way in succession.
The Mother Ship smoothly entered Tianlan Star.
