The Seventh Base-Chapter 632 - 56: Here You Go

The explosion attracted the attention of many, causing chaos in the area. They couldn’t even understand what had happened. Why had these flying devices suddenly lost control?

Had there been a battle just now?

But they noticed no signs of any battle.

Qiong’s flying device had already flown off into the distance, soaring high and circling around before descending with its form altered.

"Qiong, could this be problematic?" Xu Mo asked, would people from the Royal Knights just kill without any negotiation?

"Is it any of my concern?" Qiong replied.

"..." Xu Mo realized that they had been inside their flying device all along, doing nothing.

So, was it related to them?

Moreover, since Qiong had circled around and the flying device had changed, it was almost impossible to trace them.

Xu Mo realized that Qiong’s killing of the Royal Knights wasn’t because of him, but because Qiong didn’t want to be followed; if he hadn’t interfered, they would have continued to track them.

"Their mission was to track me..." Xu Mo said gloomily, It’s not about you, but it’s about me!

They couldn’t trace Qiong, but they could trace him, and if they didn’t know who he was, they could investigate the Blue Star Energy Technology Group.

Qiong fell silent for a moment before speaking, "They were carrying out a private task given by Prince Charles, which couldn’t be made public. The higher-ups of the Royal Knights don’t know about it. Now that something has gone wrong, they will suppress this matter themselves, otherwise, many will be in trouble. If they vent their anger on Blue Star Energy Technology Group and investigate you, just tell Elizabeth."

Xu Mo was stunned for a moment before he understood the insider details.

Prince Charles had secretly used members of the Royal Knights for personal matters, specifically to target his own sister’s company, and the leadership of the Royal Knights was unaware of this subplot, of course.

"How do you know?" Xu Mo asked Qiong in astonishment.

Qiong didn’t answer, and Xu Mo seemed to realize something, his expression turning strange.

This old witch...

She must have probed someone’s memory.

Xu Mo felt a chill down his spine, the old witch was too terrifying!

Haven’t she probed his secrets?

She probably hadn’t, because if Qiong forcefully probed him, his spiritual power would have detected it, although he couldn’t have stopped her.

"Zero, the company has received many orders recently and made quite a profit. Do you want any gift? I will buy it for you," Xu Mo decided to be nicer to Zero!

Zero blinked, looking at Xu Mo with some surprise. Suddenly so nice?

And even asking her what gift she wants.

"No." Zero shook her head. A gift?

She didn’t know what she wanted.

"Then forget it, saving some money is also good. After all, it’s all yours," Xu Mo said.

"Mine?" Zero looked at Xu Mo, not quite understanding.

"Yes, what’s mine is yours," Xu Mo said seriously, "the money earned by Blue Star Energy Technology Group will all be managed by you in the future."

Zero looked at Xu Mo, somewhat overwhelmed.

That nice?

"When I have money in the future, I’ll buy a planet and give it to you as a gift," Xu Mo said, "Qiong, do you have any planets you like? I will buy one for you too in the future."

"No need," Qiong said.

"How can it be unnecessary? One day a mentor, a lifetime a mother," Xu Mo said, "Qiong, you have granted me educational grace, it’s only right."

"Stop performing!" Qiong said.

Xu Mo: "..."

They arrived at Zero’s house.

The dinner was already prepared, very lavish.

Zero’s mother was sitting there.

"Mom," Zero called out, "Xu Mo is here."

Zero’s mother looked at Xu Mo.

"Mom," Xu Mo said.

"???" Zero’s mother looked at Xu Mo in astonishment.

"Auntie," Xu Mo said, "You look healthier and younger."

Zero’s mother gave Xu Mo a deep look, then turned to Zero and said, "Sit."

Xu Mo and Zero sat down together, like a young couple.

"I heard you’re working as a librarian at school?" Zero’s mom asked.

"Yes," Xu Mo nodded, "That way I can always take care of Zero."

"Is it you taking care of her or she taking care of you?" Zero’s mom said.

"Uh..." Xu Mo felt somewhat guilty.

"I also heard that you’re doing quite well at school, the students all like you, especially the female students," Zero’s mom continued.

"You must have misunderstood, I never initiate conversation with female students at school," Xu Mo shuddered, it was the girls who approached him.

Zero’s mom looked at Xu Mo, making him somewhat nervous.

"Let’s eat," Zero’s mom didn’t continue, and Xu Mo began to eat, not forgetting to serve Zero food: "Eat more, grow your body."

"It will make me fat," Zero said.

"No matter, I like you even if you’re chubby," Xu Mo said.

"Mom... Auntie, you eat too," Xu Mo said to Zero’s mom.

"How is the company doing now?" Zero’s mom asked.

"It is on the right track now, the first batch of weapons has been developed, and we have secured quite a few orders. We have also fully interfaced with Byron Star, but there’s still technology to develop," Xu Mo explained.

"Are you thinking of doing interstellar business?" Zero’s mom stared at Xu Mo as if seeing through his intentions.

"Yes," Xu Mo nodded, "I plan to gradually expand into that sector, secure planetary orders, and once we’ve grown larger, to reinvest in scientific research, developing more advanced weapons, constantly upgrading and expanding our armed forces."
