Mr. Su Mo, Miss Rose, have you had your meal?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Uh, it should probably count as no, but we’re not very hungry either.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, Su Mo did not know whether to say he had eaten or not.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll go get you some fruits. I’m sorry, because we are too poor, we can’t afford insects, so we cannot host you properly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Mina spoke, she couldn’t help but bow her head. In her eyes, not being able to offer high-nutrient insects to important guests was an extremely discourteous act.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A normal family, even if they cannot prepare fresh insects, would still have some preserved ones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But her family’s situation was a bit special.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No need, no need, fruits are great, what’s the need for insects.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo explained very awkwardly, fearful that Mina might take it the wrong way and actually procure some insects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He actually had little appetite today, largely thanks to those insects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Additionally, Su Mo also harbored some doubts in his mind, having so many children without being poor would indeed be a miracle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, critique aside, Su Mo would not foolishly voice it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Really? Then shall I go get some fruits for you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No need, we have some here.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo hurriedly handed the paper bag in his hands for Mina to see.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright then.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mina poked her head over, took a look inside the paper bag at the fruits, and then quickly nodded her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ah-choo~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, a coughing sound came through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following that, an elderly man with white hair and a feeble gait came out of the house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mina, you are back?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, Grandpa.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh, we have guests at home.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elderly man also noticed Su Mo and Rose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mina quickly introduced them, “Grandpa, these are my friends I met in the Federation, their names are Su Mo and Rose. I owe them my rescue.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So these are my granddaughter’s saviors, I am truly grateful. However, it’s embarrassing to say, our home is too poor and we have nothing proper to offer.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mina’s grandfather spoke apologetically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No need, we don’t need anything, just resting here for a bit will do.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo politely replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, the deep voice of the Fake Creator “Devourer” suddenly echoed in Su Mo’s mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who said we don’t need anything?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I…..”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo’s expression stiffened, nearly bewildered by the Devourer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having regained his senses, he spoke to the Fake Creator “Devourer” in his mind, “Stop it, there’s nothing we need here in such poverty.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There’s something inside the house that’s very useful to me, fetch it for me,” said the Fake Owner · Devourer curtly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mr. Su Mo frowned slightly as he communicated with the Fake Owner and Devourer, “Are you sure? Don’t cause any misunderstandings.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I am not mistaken. The damaged advanced crystal energy power core device from the V-generation machine contains a grade V energy crystal which can charge me. Such an advanced item must be from an advanced civilization; they couldn’t have afforded it. They must have found it, and if they found it nearby, then the Titan Ruins might actually exist. Moreover, energy crystals are categorized into grades I through VI, corresponding to different civilizations’ energy needs. The energy crystals we found previously in the crater and on the Imprisoned Fortress were only grades I to III, not even a glimpse of grade IV, so I must obtain this one,” responded the Fake Owner · Devourer, certain and adamant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m a bit curious. How much charge did you achieve after absorbing energy from the Imprisoned Planet Fortress last time?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Eight percent.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why so little? If you absorb this grade IV crystal, wouldn’t you be able to get a lot of energy?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mr. Su Mo also felt a headache coming on; this was too draining to sustain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dreaming would only add about five percent,” he grumbled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How much energy do you need in the end?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Never mind that. You just help me collect them, and I’ll make sure you benefit too,” replied the Devourer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mr. Su Mo was somewhat speechless, but he didn’t complain. After all, charging this creature was of the utmost importance since the higher its charge, the safer he would relatively be.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I understand. Be patient; I’ll figure something out.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr. Su Mo?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, Rose’s calling voice awakened him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sorry, I was just thinking.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mr. Su Mo came to his senses and quickly apologized to Rose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No worries. Mina and her grandfather have invited us to sit inside with them,” Rose told Mr. Su Mo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mr. Su Mo immediately agreed, as it was just what he wanted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Great, let’s go inside,” said Mina excitedly, leading Mr. Su Mo and Rose towards the large wooden house ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mina’s family’s house was made of wood. Although not very sturdy, it was quite large.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon entering the wooden house, they first came to the crowded living room. Crowded not in the sense that the room was small but because there were so many people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Children were seen holding and gnawing on fruits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in the living room, there was a pile of all sorts of mechanical debris.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mr. Su Mo immediately spotted the item specifically requested by the Fake Owner · Devourer – it was a blackened machine, its surface covered with spiderweb cracks and a large hole on the left side that pierced through it. Looking inside, it appeared hollow and decayed. It gave off the impression of a thoroughly rotten lump, fit only for the furnace—certainly no sign of anything valuable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mr. Su Mo chose not to mention this item immediately, opting to ignore it and wait for the right moment to bring it up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This way, it would not arouse suspicion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Mr. Su Mo turned his attention to the children, displaying a bitter smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly counted, not including Mina, there were a total of thirteen children here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mina, are these all your brothers and sisters? Your family has quite a lot of siblings!” Rose asked, surprised. She remembered that typically, families usually had only one or two children, and three would be the maximum.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, but that’s not all. There are sixteen of us in total. I have an older sister, but she’s married now. My brother works on another Mother Ship and isn’t here,” Mina replied, nodding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mr. Su Mo’s eyelids twitched as he heard this; he realized he had underestimated their numbers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had thought fourteen would be the maximum, but it turned out there were sixteen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, a few children ran over and looked up at Mina, saying,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sister, I’ve finished eating, but I’m still hungry.”\u003C\u002Fp>",1185,"2026-06-09T07:18:35.632Z",1,"novelbin.me","d19557d5d734ed82b6781f5da1183ae05cab3de363fb25d5481aec6380b09b35","destiny-mission-of-game-star-ring-chapter-721","destiny-mission-of-game-star-ring-chapter-719",1771,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdestiny-mission-of-game-star-ring-cover.jpg"]
