Master Of Martial Arts Has An Advanced Optical Brain

1348 I’m Not Used to Crowds

Prince Montique and Chu Nan’s expressions changed slightly.

This Captain Devirak had ruthless eyes and was really knowledgeable. In fact, most of Chu Nan’s attack was hidden in the body of that huge beast, or rather… under its butt. The aura of the huge beast that the black gas actually affected was not that obvious. If not for the fact that he was familiar with the Exterminating Heart Technique, he would not have noticed it, but he could tell at a glance.

With a thought, Chu Nan quickly put away the strange expression that flashed across his face. He shrugged and put on a relaxed posture as he smiled, “They’re indeed very similar. To be honest, the first time I fought with the princes and princesses of the Declan Empire at the Garden Hunting Assembly, I was even shocked because the cultivation method we used looked almost identical. However, in fact, we know that it’s not the same thing when we fight. My cultivation method is far inferior.”

At this point, Chu Nan glanced at Prince Montique beside him and sighed before continuing, “Actually, this is not surprising at all. If the cultivation method I learn can compare to the number one cultivation method in the Milky Way, the Exterminating Heart Technique, the person who taught me this cultivation method should have long been the top martial arts master in the Milky Way.”

“Perhaps… the person who taught you this cultivation method is from the royal family of the empire?” Captain Devirak had a smile on his face. It was unknown if he was serious or joking, “There are so many people in the royal family of the empire. One or two of them wandered to the remote Earth Federation and met you. They took you in as their disciple and taught you the Exterminating Heart Technique. This doesn’t seem impossible.”

“That’s impossible.” Prince Montique shook his head with a serious expression, “The descendants of the royal family are strictly forbidden from spreading the Exterminating Heart Technique. Moreover, if they want to cultivate to a level similar to me, it’s definitely not something that a person can casually teach well. Moreover, I’ve fought Chu Nan. Although his cultivation method is special, it has nothing to do with the Exterminating Heart Technique.”

“Heh heh, I was just joking. I hope Your Highness and Chu Nan don’t mind.” Captain Devirak smiled and wiped away this topic, “Let’s talk about serious matters. Now that the huge beast has been chased away and given way to the teleportation door to the 40th floor, I want to ask what your next plan is?”

“What did you tell Captain Devirak just now?” Chu Nan turned to ask Prince Montique.

“Actually, we didn’t chat for long before you and Angie Prairie returned,” Prince Montique said. “We roughly exchanged opinions and felt that the situation on the 40th floor should be very dangerous. Therefore, Captain Devirak proposed that we move together. If we encounter another beast tide, at least it’ll be easier to deal with with with with more people. Moreover, their Freedom and Flower Mercenary Group has a lot of experience in entering the Endless Abyss to explore. They even entered the 47th floor previously. If we combine with them, it should be more convenient for us to continue exploring deeper.”

“You mean to say that you agree to Captain Devirak’s suggestion?” Chu Nan asked.

“I’m inclined to agree, but it’s up to you.”

Chu Nan glanced at Captain Devirak and the members of the Freedom and Flower Mercenary Group behind him and frowned in thought.

In theory, agreeing to Captain Devirak’s suggestion was a very good choice, because since their group had entered the 39th level and had even reached the 47th level as far as possible, they must be powerful enough and their understanding of the Endless Abyss was clearly extremely deep. With them around, they could save a lot of effort and obtain a huge help.

However, from the perspective of participating in the Garden Hunting Assembly, this exploration would lower the reward for hunting mutated beasts. There were only a few days until the end of the second stage. If he did not hurry, the final result evaluation might not allow Chu Nan to obtain the S-rank martial technique reward. That would not be worth it.

Moreover, other than considering these practical factors, there was another very important reason that made Chu Nan a little unwilling to agree to this suggestion. That was Captain Devirak’s attitude.

Earlier, he had deliberately pointed out that his cultivation method was very similar to the Exterminating Heart Technique. Regardless of whether he did it intentionally or not, Chu Nan was unwilling to continue staying with him.

For some reason, Chu Nan felt that this Captain Devirak seemed to have a special goal.

“If you’re worried that being with us will affect your evaluation at the Garden Hunting Assembly, there’s no need.” As if guessing Chu Nan’s thoughts, Captain Devirak suddenly smiled, “Our mercenary group’s job is to serve customers. You can completely treat us as hired help to complete the Garden Hunting Assembly. No matter what your needs are, we’ll try our best to cooperate with you.”

Chu Nan narrowed his eyes and looked at him, feeling even more certain of the unhappiness in his heart.

After thinking for a moment, he shook his head and said, “There’s no need. I don’t have that much money to hire you. Moreover, I’m not used to so many people. Most of the time, I prefer to be alone, so I won’t go with you.”

Seeing Chu Nan reject, Prince Montique was immediately stunned.

“Chu Nan, this is beneficial to all of us. Why did you reject?”

“I’ve said it before. I’m not used to so many people.” Chu Nan shook his head, “If you want, go with them.”

After saying that, Chu Nan ignored the two of them and arrived beside Angie Prairie before waving at her.

“Let’s go, Angie Prairie. Let’s go to the 40th floor and take a look.”

“Alright.” Although Angie Prairie was a little strange, she did not raise any objections and happily followed Chu Nan.

The two of them had only flown two steps when they discovered that Carola had silently followed. Behind her, Princess Romanti also flew out and soon followed Chu Nan and the others.

“Hey, Romanti, it’s one thing for Carola to follow you because she’s not familiar with you, but why did you follow?” Chu Nan looked at her in surprise, “You’re a princess. Shouldn’t you be with Montique and the others?”

“Who cares about being with him?” Princess Romanti curled her lips in disdain, “I don’t like him to begin with, and these few incidents make me hate him even more. I’m unwilling to stay with him. In comparison, it’s more at ease to stay with you. Although you made Viennelle sad, you’re still a good person. Otherwise, Viennelle wouldn’t have taken a fancy to you, right?”

“Your evaluation standard is strange…” Chu Nan did not know whether to laugh or cry, “Alright, follow me. However, there are not as many people with us. Don’t regret it if you encounter any problems.”

“Is that so?” A cunning smile suddenly appeared on Princess Romanti’s slightly indignant face, “Although they have many people, their strength might not be very strong.”

“Hey, no matter what, they’re an old mercenary group. They have much more experience in exploring the Endless Abyss than us and have much more people than us. Don’t you think it’s very ridiculous for you to say this?” Chu Nan retorted.

“It’s not necessarily useful to have more people.” Princess Romanti rolled her eyes at Chu Nan, “Moreover, the most important thing is that you and Angie Prairie have a very powerful ability.”

“What!”

“Of course, it’s the ability to treat injuries,” Princess Romanti said with a smile. “No matter how many of them there are, one will be crippled if they’re injured. As for following the two of you, they’re not afraid of being injured. Which do you think is better in comparison?”

Looking at Princess Romanti’s proud expression, Chu Nan was immediately speechless.
