Chapter 1432 - 1432 New Directive
1432 New Directive
Chu Nan was even more puzzled.
Through the previous connection, they knew that Elkart was now opposite the teleportation door, but why did Carola know him?
Even if Carola came from the Sagittarius Arm and should belong to the sphere of influence of the Noctem Chamber of Commerce, this did not mean that she would know Elkart, a person of high status in the Noctem Chamber of Commerce, right?
However, to Chu Nan’s surprise, after hearing Prince Lekas’ question, Carola nodded.
“Yes.”
“Alright, if I get Elkart to order you to move with us, will you accept it?” Prince Lekas asked again.
“If Lord Elkart obtains the authority of the Chamber of Commerce, I’ll accept it.”
“That’s enough.” Prince Lekas nodded and turned to ask Chu Nan, “If she’s gone, will you be unable to open the teleportation door?”
Chu Nan did not expect Prince Lekas to throw the problem at him again. After being stunned for a moment, he shook his head and replied, “It’s not impossible, but it’ll be very troublesome. Moreover, other than me, only Carola has the ability to open the teleportation door alone, so it’s much more convenient to bring her along.”
“Alright, I understand.”
Prince Lekas nodded and gestured for the four of them to open the teleportation door again.
When Chu Nan and the other three jointly urged their Internal Breath to gather a large amount of spatial energy to open the teleportation door, he had been standing at the side and sized up the four of them with interest. From time to time, he would reveal a thoughtful and surprised expression.
After the teleportation door opened, Prince Lekas said, “We’ll open it in an hour.” Then, he walked into the teleportation door and disappeared.
The four of them looked at each other, but they could only wait patiently.
An hour later, the four of them restarted the teleportation door according to the agreement. Figures flashed inside, and Prince Lekas and Elkart appeared together.
As soon as Elkart appeared and saw Chu Nan and the other three, he immediately waved at them.
“Heh, Chu Nan, I didn’t expect to see you here again. It’s really unexpected.”
Chu Nan laughed, “I didn’t expect you to come here personally. Isn’t the Noctem Chamber of Commerce worried that something will happen to you?”
“I’m with Prince Lekas. With him around, what can happen to me?” Elkart curled his lips, “On the other hand, you’ve experienced a lot recently. It’s really surprising that you’re still safe and sound. Previously, I even told Prince Lekas that you seem to be born with the attribute of causing trouble. Special incidents happen wherever you go. Look, a large number of young martial artists participating in the Garden Hunting Assembly are fine, but you encountered those fellows opposite you.”
“Oh? Is that so?” Chu Nan helplessly spread out his hands, “This happened to hit me. You can’t blame me, right?”
“That’s why I said that you’re born with the attribute of causing trouble. However, this is also a good thing. I originally did not have high expectations for the results of this operation, but because of you, we’ve made many unexpected discoveries now. Especially…” Elkart pointed at the teleportation door behind him, “You can actually find a way to open the teleportation door yourself. This is even more important than our joint operation this time.”
“Is it that exaggerated?” Chu Nan looked at him suspiciously, “Don’t tell me you’re deliberately exaggerating?”
“You’ll know if I’m exaggerating… Just ask Prince Lekas.”
Seeing that everyone’s gazes had turned to him, Prince Lekas coughed lightly and said, “We’ll talk about this in the future. Our first goal now is to track down those fellows. Elkart, I’ll leave convincing Carola to you.”
“No problem.” Elkart snapped his fingers and walked straight to Carola. He sized her up and revealed an appreciative expression, “Tsk tsk, although I’ve long known of your existence from the report, it’s still shocking to see you with my own eyes. This is simply a perfect work of art! Your name is Carola?”
“Yes, Lord Elkart,” Carola still replied expressionlessly.
“Very good. It would be even better if I could smile more. Those fellows from the Gamalan Laboratory are all a bunch of unromantic fellows. I must scold them properly the next time I see them.” Elkart sighed as he opened the personal terminal on his wrist and lit up the virtual screen, revealing a very complicated pattern, “This is the authority given to me at the last minute by the Chamber of Commerce. You should be able to understand it, right?”
Carola looked at the pattern seriously and carefully before nodding.
“Yes, Lord Elkart. Please give the order.”
“There’s no need to be so serious.” Elkart smiled and waved his hand, “My instructions are very simple. From now on, follow Chu Nan and move with Prince Lekas until this operation ends. When you see me again, the instructions will naturally be canceled, understand?”
“Understood.”
“Very good.”
Elkart stretched out his hand as if he wanted to pat Carola’s shoulder in praise, but she moved and avoided him.
“This… Ha… Haha…”
Elkart’s hand froze in midair. He could only laugh dryly and retract it.
“Alright, Your Highness. I’ve already given Carola’s order. She’ll move with you. I know my own limits. I’m clearly not suitable to follow this operation. I’ll return to the teleportation door and wait for your good news.”
“Okay.”
After watching Elkart step into the teleportation door and disappear, Prince Lekas’s expression immediately became serious. He looked at the four of them and said in a low voice, “This operation is definitely dangerous. If you go back on your words and are unwilling to go now, I won’t force you.”
“I…” Princess Romanti opened her mouth and was about to make up her mind when she closed her mouth and turned to look at Chu Nan.
Chu Nan smiled at Prince Lekas, “Your Highness, do you think we’ve encountered very little danger these few days? Moreover, I’ve negotiated with you. If we go back on our words now, aren’t you worried that we’ll be slapped to death by you?”
Prince Lekas’s expression changed and he almost could not help but laugh.
He looked at Chu Nan with admiration and a trace of surprise.
It was one thing for this kid from the Earth Federation to be outstanding in strength and talent, but he could be neither servile nor overbearing when facing him and have a natural expression. This was something many young martial artists could not do.
What was even stranger was that Romanti, who had always had an unyielding personality and only others listened to her, rarely listened to others, would actually take the initiative to worry about Chu Nan. It could be seen that their relationship was extraordinary.
He was certain that Chu Nan and Romanti had definitely not interacted before. Then, from the first day of the Garden Hunting Assembly, the two of them had only known each other for two to three months. It was really surprising that the two of them could get along to this extent in such a short period of time.
“I won’t be so unreasonable, but if you go back on your words now, I guarantee that I’ll evaluate you again in the evaluation submitted later.” Prince Lekas deliberately suppressed the smile in his heart and replied in a low voice before waving his hand, “Let’s go.”
Prince Lekas flew up and Chu Nan and the other three immediately followed. A moment later, they disappeared into the vast sky of the 40th floor of the Endless Abyss.
