The Seventh Base Chapter 408

Chapter 408: 50. Really Knows a Lot_2

Seeing this scene, Tanis had already made up his mind and spoke up, “Alright, I choose the Domineering Shield Team.”

“Welcome,” Han Hu extended his hand.

Tanis shook hands with him, and from then on, all three of them were assigned to teams.

Xu Mo, to Divine Sword Team.

Zero, to Tomorrow Team.

Tanis, to Domineering Shield Team.

“Everyone can disperse now,” Shi Qiang said to the crowd once the results came out. The crowd gradually left, and the people from the Galaxy Team and Shenluo Combat Team glanced at a few individuals, with those from the Galaxy Team even letting out a cold huff.

It was one thing for Xu Mo to be specifically requested by the Divine Sword Team, but for neither Tanis nor Zero to choose them, they hoped there would be no regrets in the future.

Within the Divine Sword Bureau, the stronger the combat team, the more resources it had.

“From now on, we're all on the same side,” Ye Xi approached and patted Zero on the shoulder. Zero, somewhat unused to it, dodged away a bit. Xu Mo stepped forward and said to Ye Xi, “Captain, Zero has had very little contact with the outside world and is not good at conversation. I hope you can be understanding and take care of her.”

That was his reason for letting Zero join Ye Xi's team, as it might be easier for women to communicate.

“Don't worry, I'll take good care of your girlfriend,” Ye Xi said with a knowing look.

Why did everyone think that?

Zero glanced at Xu Mo.

“Come on, I'll take you to get familiar with the team,” Ye Xi said to Zero. Xu Mo nodded at Zero, and she followed Ye Xi away.

Han Hu also took Tanis away, and soon there were fewer and fewer people around. Xu Mo looked at Shi Qiang and asked, “What about me?”

No one claimed him!

The people from the Divine Sword Team didn't show up; they just named him from afar.

At that moment, a lady wearing glasses and a uniform came over. She looked at Xu Mo and then extended her hand, “Divine Sword Team, Ge Qing.”

“Hm?”

Xu Mo looked at the woman. About twenty-four or twenty-five years old, very fair-skinned, with both figure and face quite attractive, but she didn't look like a powerful Transcendent, more like a teacher from a school.

The style seemed a bit off?

“Xu Mo.” Xu Mo extended his hand to shake hers.

“Ge Qing, I leave him to your training,” Shi Qiang said.

“Okay,” Ge Qing nodded, and Shi Qiang also left.

“Follow me,” Ge Qing turned to leave, and Xu Mo followed her, asking, “How should I address you?”

“Anything is fine, just the name,” Ge Qing responded.

“Ge Qing, when did you join the Divine Sword Team?” Xu Mo asked out of curiosity.

“Ten years ago,” Ge Qing answered.

“???” Xu Mo looked at Ge Qing. How old was she? Ten years ago.

It seemed Ge Qing understood Xu Mo's confusion and said to him, “I'm not like you; I am not a Transcendent.”

Not a Transcendent?

“Then, what about you?” Xu Mo asked curiously.

How did she join the Divine Sword Team if she was not a Transcendent?

“I'm in charge of some of your training,” Ge Qing said. Xu Mo nodded; so she was support personnel for the Divine Sword Team?

It made sense then.

“I've looked over your information, and according to the evaluation results, your weakness is physical strength. Additionally, although your reaction speed is strong, your movement speed isn't sufficient. These are all aspects that can be improved and will be the main focus of your upcoming training,” Ge Qing said, looking at the electronic tablet in her hand as she spoke to Xu Mo.

“Okay,” Xu Mo nodded. “What about the other members of the Divine Sword Team?”

He hadn't seen a single one of them.

“They're all outside,” Ge Qing replied.

“Outside?” Xu Mo was curious. He wanted to know what the people from the Divine Sword Bureau normally did.

“Yes,” Ge Qing nodded. “Some are busy with their own things, some are in the ruins, and others have gone to other bases or alien planets.”

“Alien planets?” Xu Mo immediately caught the key point.

“Yes,” Ge Qing responded, seemingly sharing some traits with Ling.

“So you mean, I could go there too in the future?” Xu Mo was somewhat excited. Could he finally have the opportunity for interstellar travel? How many known planets were in the universe, and how many races? An interstellar journey must be thrilling.

“Of course,” Ge Qing nodded. “Also, I just received some information about you. Due to your killing of a Lancelot Star person at the Transcendent Competition, Lancelot Star is now threatening the City Government to hand over the person involved, and they've also united with some other star embassies to apply pressure.”

“You have two ways to deal with this: first, ignore it; second, take the initiative to solve it,” Ge Qing said.

“How can I take the initiative to solve it?” Xu Mo asked.

“Amanda, a Lancelot Star noble and member of the Star Lord Knight Order; Source Power Level, minus; with the aid of mechanical equipment, Combat Power can reach plus,” Ge Qing stated. “Lancelot Star is using the death of Rob as a pretext to cause trouble. They do not recognize Byron Star's Transcendent Competition rules, nor do they recognize Byron Star's laws. To deal with Amanda, it is necessary to use Lancelot Star's methods.”

“What methods?” Xu Mo inquired.

“Issue an official duel challenge to Amanda, a member of the Lancelot Star Star Lord Knight Order, in the name of a member of the Divine Sword Team,” Ge Qing explained. “Given Amanda's personality, she will definitely accept the challenge.”

“However, if it is you who proposes the duel, the method of the duel will be decided by Amanda. Given that your current Source Power Level is only B, the duel is bound to be lost,” she added.

“So that doesn't solve the problem?” Xu Mo asked.

“Another member of the Divine Sword Team can duel in your place, but Amanda might refuse, or she might postpone the duel, not setting it for the immediate future,” Ge Qing explained.

“According to your evaluation, your Source Power Level will break through to B-plus within a month, but it's still a distance from minus,” she noted.

“What will happen if we ignore the Lancelot Star People?” Xu Mo inquired.

“Nothing will happen,” Ge Qing replied. “Based on data calculations, continuing to ignore the Lancelot Star People will eventually come to nothing. However, Byron Star will lose points in the Star System Alliance. If any turmoil arises in the future, Lancelot Star will use this as an excuse to attack Byron Star.”

“What exactly is the Star System Alliance?” Xu Mo continued.

“It maintains order in the star systems and prohibits interstellar wars. Because Byron Star has suffered a disaster, it is considered a weaker civilization within the star systems and fears war the most. Should it be expelled from the Star System Alliance, it might face invasion at any time,” Ge Qing said.

“I understand,” Xu Mo nodded. So, many planets that come to Byron Star are not well-intentioned. They are here to nibble away at Byron Star and, given the opportunity, they will not hesitate to take a bite.

Members of the Galaxy Team from the Divine Sword Bureau, like Tanis and others from alien races that have joined Byron Star, implied that their home planets might have been destroyed in interstellar wars.

Therefore, although Byron Star appears to be in a peaceful era, a crisis could strike at any moment in interstellar space. Ordinary citizens may not see these threats, but the higher-ups in the Divine Sword Bureau are well aware of them.

That's why the Divine Sword Bureau also travels to alien planets to gather news from the outside.

“What resources does Byron Star have?” Xu Mo asked.

“Energy,” Ge Qing said, looking at Xu Mo. “And the desire to colonize and develop a second planet. In the interstellar age, many planets have a strong sense of crisis. For instance, Lancelot Star. They are extremely aggressive toward Byron Star, but in the wider interstellar context, they're not considered a very strong civilization. Otherwise, they wouldn't strut around Byron Star. In the presence of higher-level civilizations, they are also weak.”

“I see,” Xu Mo nodded. All of this was easy to understand. Strength is relative. Truly high-level civilizations don't care about Byron Star–it's only civilizations that aren't much stronger that act like Lancelot Star.

It seemed the interstellar space above was filled with danger, and no matter how powerful a planet might be, it could collapse overnight.

Xu Mo wondered about the strength of Ling Family's home planet.

However, precisely because of this, Xu Mo was even more eager for the interstellar journey.

“Ge Qing, you know a lot,” Xu Mo said.

“It's you who knows too little,” Ge Qing adjusted her glasses and replied.

Xu Mo: “…”

After giving Ge Qing a glance, Xu Mo thought to himself, What I know, you don't!
