Chapter 723: Chapter 577: Invitation (Extra for Silver Alliance Leader Arain) (Fifth Update)

At that moment, the smallest, Little Mila, wearing a diaper, wobbled over to Su Mo, extended her little hand, and gave him a small, delicate fruit.

“Big, big brother, eat.”

“Thank you, why don’t you join me.”

Su Mo crouched down to take the fruit and picked up Little Mila, then put her back in her place.

“Haha, let’s eat.”

Rose said with a smile.

The remaining children all looked towards Mina, who smiled brightly and said.

“Let’s eat!”

…..

Half an hour later, Su Mo and his two companions were walking on a bustling street.

As a guide, Mina was very competent, she had specially changed into a military uniform. Although Su Mo and his friends still attracted a lot of attention, those who wanted to approach them hesitated involuntarily.

It became much quieter for a moment.

As Mina led them forward, she explained, “This is one of the liveliest areas of Green Gore City, those shops on the left sell various silk garments, both cheap and expensive. The finest ones are made of a natural silver silk unique to our area, which is not only very attractive but also has great durability and stain resistance….”

After listening, Rose became interested.

“Shall we take a look?”

“If you like it, let’s go,”

Su Mo nodded slightly; he had also thought about bringing gifts for Cheng Xue. However, since he had spent all his money, the plan had to be shelved for the time being.

Just as they were about to go there,

A sudden shout of surprise sounded.

“Mina!!”

Mina turned to look, and a big man in bulky Mechanical Armor, with a bear-like head exposed, along with three other teammates, waved at Mina non-stop.

“Captain Anli!”

Mina shouted back excitedly.

Soon, Mina’s teammates ran over.

“We heard you came back safe and sound, we were just about to go to your house to look for you, but we ran into you here; I told you that you wouldn’t go down so easily.”

Captain Anli said excitedly.

“Captain, how come you guys didn’t die? I clearly saw you surrounded by monsters.”

Mina asked with excitement and immense confusion.

Anli knocked on Mina’s head directly, saying irritably.

“What kind of talk is that, were you hoping we would die? We managed to escape thanks to you, though; those monsters, seeing you flee, chased you like they had lost their dear father, which ironically kept us safe.”

Captain Anli also felt somewhat fortunate.

After hearing this, Mina’s face fell, and she pouted.

“And here I wondered why so many monsters were chasing to kill me, it seems they were all after me. Captain, you guys went too far, escaping but not coming to save me.”

“Haha, don’t be mad; in fact, we were looking for you after we escaped. Your Mecha is too fast; we lost sight of you and had to return. We had only returned a short while ago, and the captain, after hearing you were alright, immediately brought us to find you,” a cute teammate with cat ears giggled.

“Keni, are you being serious?”

Mina blinked and asked.

“Of course I am serious, do you doubt me?”

Captain Anli stretched out his hand and ruffled Mina’s hair vigorously.

“I wouldn’t dare.”

Mina quickly begged for mercy.

Su Mo couldn’t help but laugh watching this scene.

“Mina, who are these two?”

It was only then Captain Anli noticed Su Mo and Rose; he could tell immediately they were not from his country, and his tone became somewhat restrained.

“Captain, let me introduce them to you, this is big brother Su Mo, and this is sister Rose. They are from the Federation, and it was thanks to them intervening that I was rescued; otherwise, you really wouldn’t have seen me again,” Mina hurriedly introduced.

“We are deeply grateful.”

Captain Anli and his teammates put their right hands to their chests and bowed to Su Mo and Rose.

“No need to thank us,”

Su Mo waved his hand and said.

“Captain, I still need to take Su Mo and Rose around the city for a bit. I’ll chat with you guys later.”

Mina hurriedly explained, not wanting to keep Su Mo and the others waiting too long.

“Alright.”

Captain Anli nodded.

However, just at that moment, a very jarring voice accompanied by the sound of footsteps approached.

“I knew something was off this morning, my eyelid was twitching. I didn’t expect to run into an old buddy. Oh my, isn’t this little Mina? I’m so glad you’re alright. We were really worried you’d been swallowed by a Monster.”

Anli and the others immediately looked stern and turned to look.

They saw a man in second-generation Mechanical Armor, with coffee-colored long hair, and a face full of a disgusting smile coming towards them with four subordinates.

“Dako, this is none of your business.”

Anli looked angrily at Dako, who was leading the group.

“Don’t say that. We’re all companions here, and Mina, this girl, came back alive against all odds. As a superior, I ought to show some concern, shouldn’t I?”

Dako showed no signs of leaving.

“And you call yourself a superior?”

Mina said fuming.

“Don’t say that. I’m serious. I have been promoted. From now on, not just you, but even Anli should address me as ‘Superior’. However, you know I’m a very easy-going person. I never fuss about these things, I won’t force you to call me ‘Superior’.”

Dako continued, boasting while pointing at the badge on his chest.

“How is that possible? How could someone like you get promoted? So despicable and shameless, directing the Monster toward others in order to escape yourself.”

Mina said angrily.

“You can eat messily but should not speak carelessly. I did not do that, and indeed I was promoted for my meritorious service.”

Dako replied with a smile.

“Dako, it was you who forcefully took the larva eggs.”

Anli immediately reacted, his eyes widening as he glared fiercely at Dako.

He suddenly understood why the swarm of insects had erupted when they went exploring; it was all because of this man, who had caused the death of many people at that time.

Dako’s expression became somewhat unnatural.

“What nonsense are you spouting? I don’t know what you’re talking about. I came here out of goodwill to console you, but you really don’t appreciate it. Ah, I guess it’s hard being a good person.”

Dako said fearlessly.

“Dako, shut your foul mouth!”

Anli exclaimed furiously.

At that moment, Mina quickly hugged Anli’s waist, holding back her own captain.

“Captain, don’t be impulsive.”

She was truly afraid that in a burst of anger, her captain might strike the other party. If this guy really had been promoted, insubordination was a serious crime.

Just then Su Mo said indifferently, “Gentlemen, although we are outsiders and shouldn’t interject. But arguing in front of us doesn’t seem quite right, does it? Is this the demeanor of an officer from the Yanas Kingdom? It’s hard to imagine these are the troops led by Lord Beilo.”

Dako turned to look at Su Mo and Rose, his expression abruptly changing.

He was so caught up in his taunts that he hadn’t noticed the presence of Federation members. Luckily, he hadn’t misspoken.

The smile on Dako’s face stiffened as he said, “The emissary is right, we indeed behaved a bit impolitely. We will take our leave now.”

Saying this, Dako quickly left with his people.

Mina also breathed a sigh of relief after Dako left.

It was fortunate that a fight hadn’t erupted; that would have caused even greater trouble.

Anli also gradually calmed down. He turned to Su Mo and said, “Thanks.”

“It’s no big deal,” Su Mo responded, not saying much more, since after all, it was their internal matter.

“Then we’re heading off,” Anli said to Mina.

“Wait. Since you are all friends of Mina, why don’t we all have dinner together later? My treat,” Su Mo suddenly proposed, thinking it would be a good opportunity to gather some information.

“How could we let you treat us? If anyone should be treating, it should be us,” Anli stated, thumping his chest heartily.

“Alright, that’s fine too. When you have a chance to visit the Federation, I’ll take on the role of host,” Su Mo said. Seeing his purpose was achieved, he no longer demurred.
