1064 Experts Are Like the Boundless Stars
Be it the Orion Arm, the Perseus Arm, or even the Sagittarius Arm that had always emphasized that technology was far superior to martial techniques, they all moved after the news of the meeting of the royal family of the Declan Empire, the Garden Hunting Assembly, spread.
Countless young martial artists gathered towards the Declan Empire from the three spiral arms and even the galactic center of the Milky Way with all kinds of goals. For a moment, the entire Milky Way became even more lively.
On the fourth Earth Day after leaving the Earth Federation, the spaceship Chu Nan took stopped on the border planet of the United States of Melaita.
If he walked towards the galactic center, he would cross the border of the United States of Melaita and enter an ownerless Star Field.
This ownerless Star Field was a Star Field that was not ruled by an official country. Once one entered this Star Field, the guarantee of safety would greatly decrease compared to the territory of the United States of Melaita. Therefore, any civilian spaceship would rest before entering this Star Field and continue to advance after meeting up with the arranged guard fleet.
Hearing the spaceship’s notification that there were still six to eight hours until the estimated departure time, a trace of regret flashed through Chu Nan’s heart.
If he had known earlier, he would not have cared so much and directly drove the spaceship given to him by the mysterious girl.
With that spaceship that could even directly enter the highest authority of the Earth Federation, it could definitely save him a lot of time on this journey.
At first, he did plan to do this, but later on, he recalled that he was only going out alone this time. It was too extravagant to drive a spaceship.
Moreover, even if the automatic facilities on the spaceship were extremely complete, there was no need for him to do anything. The mainframe A.I. would be extremely arranged, but some things had to be done by himself—for example, how should he store and safeguard this spaceship after arriving at the Declan Empire…
Of course, the main reason why he finally rejected this thought was that he had already agreed to keep that matter a secret. If he swaggered this spaceship to the Declan Empire, with the identity that the girl had unintentionally revealed, he might be targeted. It was probably not a good thing.
“Speaking of which… will I have the chance to encounter her on this trip to the Declan Empire?”
When he thought of this, Chu Nan could not help but wonder before shaking his head and rejecting this thought.
Clearly, that girl’s status in the Declan Empire was definitely not low. From the way she sent him a spaceship in a row, she was from a different world from Chu Nan.
It was already extremely fate that the two of them could unintentionally meet. It was impossible for them to expect to meet again in the Declan Empire which was so vast that it spanned more than 20,000 light-years.
“Alright, what’s the point of thinking about this? Why don’t you take the opportunity to think about what to do after arriving at the Declan Empire?”
Taking advantage of this time, Chu Nan found a quiet corner and opened his personal terminal. He carefully read some of the precautions sent by Director Wang Sicheng before he set off. At the same time, he logged into the Milky Way Network and carefully flipped through his destination—the sixth planet of the Declan Empire’s Gama Star Field, the Okamp Star System, Planet Princess Anna.
According to the rules and procedures of the Garden Hunting Assembly given by the Declan Empire, the young martial artists who obtained the chance to participate in the Garden Hunting Assembly had to arrive at the registration location at the specified time without anyone accompanying them. They had to register on time and not wait for the expiration date.
This requirement had once caused a huge controversy on the Milky Way Network.
Many people felt that the Milky Way was so large that it would take at least tens of thousands of light-years to cross the long distance from the outside of the spiral arm to the galactic center. Even if they traveled day and night, it would probably take a long time, let alone in a situation where they were unfamiliar with the place. It was fine for those young martial artists who often went far, but what if it was those who rarely went far?
If this request caused some outstanding young martial artists to be unable to catch up to participate in the Garden Hunting Assembly in time, wouldn’t it be a pity?
Regarding this, the official response of the Declan Empire was very simple and unyielding.
The Declan Empire officially expressed that if they could not even deal with such a small problem alone, they should obediently return home and stay. They were not qualified to participate in this event.
Apart from that, the Declan Empire officially did not give any explanation.
Regarding this attitude, although many people expressed their dissatisfaction, there was nothing they could do.
This was because this was the attitude of the Declan Empire that had always been so unyielding. Moreover, this was the Garden Hunting Assembly that the Declan Empire had set up themselves. They had clearly said that it was up to him to come or not. As for whether he could come or not, it was his own business. He did not care.
Chu Nan had no objections to this. In any case, he had even run to the Perseus Arm alone before. Now, he naturally did not feel that it was troublesome to come to the Declan Empire alone.
On the contrary, the Martial Arts Branch was worried about this. Director Wang Sicheng even specially made a dense and extremely detailed travel strategy for Chu Nan. It was extremely clear about the various problems he might encounter. Not only did he tell him what cosmic flight he should take, where to transfer, how long it would take in the middle, which places he should pass along the way, and what to pay attention to in these places… Wait, he even prepared three sets of clothes for Chu Nan to change into before he set off. He did not even let go of his underwear!
In Chu Nan’s opinion, this was simply several times more detailed than the preparations his mother had made for him before he left for school.
However, thanks to Director Wang’s ample preparations, Chu Nan saved a lot of effort and just followed the travel strategy prepared by him.
According to this travel strategy, the ownerless Star Field between the United States of Melaita and the Declan Empire was the only place where true danger could happen.
Because this Star Field was deliberately left behind by the United States of Melaita and the Declan Empire, it was not protected by any government. Therefore, the environment had always been relatively chaotic and was a place where cosmic pirates were common.
However, it was also because of this that the civilian fleets that passed through this Star Field would find a reliable guard fleet in advance to be in charge of guarding. The chances of something happening were not that high.
Only the caravans of those small Chamber of Commerce would choose to take the risk in order to save money. On the contrary, it was more likely that accidents would happen.
This time, the space flight Director Wang Sicheng arranged for Chu Nan to take was the number one space company under the United States of Melaita, Melaita Space. It had an extremely high reputation in the entire Orion Arm. He had several powerful guard fleets under his name and even had a good relationship with the military of the United States of Melaita and even the Declan Empire. Naturally, he did not have to worry about any blind cosmic pirates daring to have designs on them.
Moreover…
Chu Nan raised his head and glanced at the cabin of the spaceship. His gaze paused on a few of them and he revealed a smile.
Clearly, he was not the only martial artist who wanted to take this spaceship to the Declan Empire.
With the situation he saw now, there were many young martial artists on this spaceship who went to the same destination as him. Among them, there were also many who clearly revealed powerful auras.
As for the few he had specially noticed, he could even determine that they were at least high-level Void Break Martial Artists with their auras. They might have even… broken through to the Heaven Control Realm.
Previously, when he participated in the Orion Arm Martial Arts Academy Alliance Competition, Chu Nan thought that he could already see the most outstanding young martial artists on it.
However, from the current situation, he was still a little ignorant.
The Milky Way was so vast, and there were billions of stars on the Orion Arm. Among them, there were countless human planets. Powerful young martial artists were probably as vast as the stars. Among them, young martial artists who could be comparable to him might naturally appear.
When he thought of this, Chu Nan could not help but feel a trace of excitement.
Participating in the Orion Arm Martial Arts Academy Alliance Competition was simply a formality for him. It was not challenging.
However, by participating in this Garden Hunting Assembly, just the current situation made him feel that this trip was definitely not in vain.
When he thought of being able to fight young martial artists who were equally talented and powerful, Chu Nan naturally could not help but feel excited.
“Speaking of which, those media outlets always say that no especially outstanding successor has appeared among the descendants of the royal family of the Declan Empire in the past few years, so it’s been a long time since they held the Garden Hunting Assembly. However, since they’ve chosen to hold it now, a good candidate should have appeared, right? If I can fight those guys, it’ll probably be very exciting.”
Just as he was thinking, a communication request notification suddenly sounded from his personal terminal.
