The Seventh Base-Chapter 607 - 44: Invitation
In the manor, a flying device approached and stopped above the estate before slowly descending.
Xu Mo and Ye Qingdie both rose and walked toward it, and then a line of figures emerged from the landed flying device.
"Brother," a girl walked toward Xu Mo. Yaoer had grown quite a bit, now nine years old and already 1.4 meters tall, standing by Xu Mo’s side.
Having grown up, Xu Yao was somewhat shy, no longer rushing to hug Xu Mo as before, especially since they had seen each other less frequently.
Xu Mo looked at the grown Xu Yao, placed his hands on her head, and rubbed it, saying, "You’ve gotten so tall."
"Xu Mo," Mia and Elsa also walked over.
"Mia, Elsa," Xu Mo said with a smile. After everything here had stabilized, he had arranged for Mia and Yaoer to come here. They had established a firm foothold on Lucas Star, and it was impractical for Mia and the others to always stay in the underground base.
"Brother Mo, the mission is complete." Xiao Qi stretched out languidly, he and Ying had been the ones picking up people.
"Great job; next time, go down with the main forces and see if Xiao Xiao wants to come up with you," Xu Mo said with a smile.
Xiao Qi’s eyes shifted, realizing he hadn’t seen Xiao Xiao in quite a while and missed him.
Xiao Xiao had also grown up quite a bit.
"Miss Mia, Elsa, would you like to go back to school? Shall I arrange for you to attend a music school on Lucas Star?" Xu Mo asked. Previously, Miss Mia and Elsa were at a music academy in Chuanxing City, but their education was interrupted due to the upheaval on Byron Star.
"That would be great," Mia nodded. "Xu Mo, how did you manage this?"
It hadn’t been long, yet Xu Mo had made a big splash in alien territories.
"Luck," Xu Mo said. If it hadn’t been for entering Lucas University and serendipitously meeting some top-tier individuals, he wouldn’t have been able to integrate resources. Of course, having the capability helped, at least enough to make others trust him.
"What are you all standing around for?" Ye Qingdie called out, prompting the group to snap out of it.
"Miss Mia, Elsa, this is your new home now," Xu Mo spoke, "Now it’s vacation time, and by next school opening season, I’ll use a friend’s help to get you into the music school, though you might need a new identity."
"Mm," Mia and Elsa naturally had no objections.
......
Mechanical God Arena.
At that moment, an extremely fierce battle was erupting in the arena, a woman clad in red Armor wielding weapons and firing wildly, with others holding War Sabers and spears nearby.
But now, they were being ambushed, surrounded by Mechanical Players shooting madly at them, then a line of opponents attacked simultaneously.
Roars erupted from around the arena.
Ye Xi switched weapons and charged forward, a terrifying red glow slicing through the air, sending one person flying, but attackers from both sides rushed at her, closing to encircle.
"Despicable," someone cursed angrily from a section of the stands.
They were from the Blue Star Energy Technology Company. Recently, aside from hiring Transcendents, personnel from the Divine Sword Bureau had also entered the fray, but in every round of battle, they were targeted.
The firepower of Blue Star Energy Technology Group’s weapons was far too strong, making them a priority target, and other mechanical corporations also targeted them.
They had grabbed a big slice of others’ pie.
Market demand fluctuates within a certain range and doesn’t expand indefinitely, the high sales of Blue Star Energy Technology Group’s weapons inevitably hurt the orders of other mechanical companies.
"Mr. Ross, have none of our people broken out yet?" a woman asked Ross, it was Elizabeth.
Recently, Elizabeth had been visiting the company’s facilities in the Mechanical Kingdom often, and as a Transcendent, she had a keen interest in the arena battles.
With the upcoming Lune Festival, the Mechanical God Arena had instituted new rules, selecting top players through a series of events to compete in the battle of the Mechanical King the evening before the festival day.
Beyond the A-level battlefield, there was also an S-level battlefield.
These two peak events were also a major publicity boost for the Mechanical God Arena, with many tuning in to watch on the day, achieving significant viewership.
But now, the Blue Star Energy Technology Group couldn’t even secure a spot, always being targeted.
"No," Ross shook his head. "Moreover, this event requires real-name registration backstage, no repeated entries, everyone only gets one chance. If this continues, we plan to deploy all the company’s hired people into the same battle to secure some slots."
Those guys were too cowardly, always targeting them first in every competitive battle, an outrageous strategy that prevented their people from breaking through.
"Boom..."
Just then, Ye Xi was hit during the ambush, and a fierce barrage of fire subsequently blasted her from mid-air to the ground, forcing her out of the match.
The surrounding area still echoed with cries and cheers; the audience had been previously dominated by Blue Star Energy Technology Group’s weapons in the arena, and now that they saw them eliminated, they cheered excitedly.
