1371 Supremacy Can’t Make A Move

“How can that do?!” Nina cried out in surprise, “If they die, won’t our previous research be in vain?”

“If they’re discovered by those damned fellows from the Declan Empire and the Noctem Chamber of Commerce, all our hard work will be in vain. Why do you think the higher-ups want us to retreat temporarily this time?” Director Romon’s tone was still cold, “Alright, this is an order. It’s not like I usually carry out scientific research discussions with you. Obey and hurry up. We don’t have much time.”

The room fell silent. After a moment, the door opened and a group of people filed out.

Chu Nan lowered his head to look at Nina who was walking over from below and discovered that her expression was heavy as if she was really sad about Supervisor Romon’s cold-blooded decision. He could not help but feel a little strange.

When this woman was having an affair with that man just now, she still looked like she wanted to leave here and go home very much. Now, she could clearly retreat without any burden, but she was unhappy.

Could it be that the feelings she had for those mutated beasts were deeper than her feelings for that man?

After watching everyone leave, Chu Nan still lay on the spot and quietly waited for the door to close again.

After a while, a voice sounded from inside again. It was a long sigh from Director Romon.

“Sigh… Doctor, how long have we been here?”

Dr. Querzaros was silent for a moment before slowly answering, “I came a little earlier than you and have already stayed here for seven standard cycles. When I came, my genetic index was still comparable to a 30-year-old young man. Although my control of the strength of my body has improved as my research has deepened, my genetic index still inevitably fell to the standard of nearly 40 years old.”

“Is that so?” Director Romon smiled bitterly, “You can still rely on your body to strengthen and continue to be strong. Look at your current body. If I don’t say it, who will believe that you’re actually an old man more than 80 years old? Sometimes, I really want to undergo genetic modification like you. This way, my body can stay young forever.”

“If you’re willing to destroy the star cloud and endure the pain and the high possibility of failure, I can help you.” Dr. Querzaros’s words carried a trace of mockery.

“There’s no need. I’m also an old man, but I don’t have the courage to start over like young people.” Director Romon smiled bitterly and rejected, then changed the topic, “Speaking of young people, are the two young people you encountered really that powerful? You actually can’t completely defeat them after transforming into the third form. Instead, you can only escape yourself?”

“Hmm… I’ve never fought that young girl before. I can only roughly determine that her strength is probably at the low-level Heaven Control Realm, but that young boy… is indeed very strong. He’s very strange. I can’t determine that he’s that strong from the aura on his body. I didn’t think he was very strong in the beginning, but the more I fought, the stronger he became. Moreover, he’s right. My third form is still a little flawed. It might not be as useful as my second form in a true battle.”

“Oh? What flaw is it?” Director Romon was very interested.

Dr. Querzaros did not answer this question. Instead, he changed the topic.

“Romon, I feel that we still have to clean up the rats here before we retreat. You should know very well that the destroyed teleportation door only needs the time of a Milky Way Standard Wheel to naturally regenerate. If one or two of the rats who sneaked into this floor discover our secret here and live until the next time the teleportation door opens and returns to the Declan Empire or the Noctem Chamber of Commerce, the secret here will still be exposed. It’s extremely disadvantageous to us.”

“No, I don’t think there’s a need.” Director Romon still rejected Dr. Querzaros, “Even if a mouse lives until that time as you say, the fastest is after the standard cycle of the Milky Way. At that time, we can completely deal with it calmly. Even if the Declan Empire and the Noctem Chamber of Commerce find evidence, we can safely reject it and not affect the overall situation. Moreover, since the two young people you encountered are so strong, we must invest a lot of strength to capture or kill them. At this moment, do you think we still have the ability to divert such strength?”

Dr. Querzaros was silent for a moment before continuing, “Actually, we can completely invite the Supremacy to help deal with it. She’s not far from here. It won’t take much…”

“No!” Director Romon forcefully interrupted Dr. Querzaros, “If the Supremacy is discovered by the Declan Empire or the Noctem Chamber of Commerce, the consequences will only be even more serious. Even the alliance can’t explain it. Therefore, unless it’s the most critical and necessary moment, the Supremacy can’t be easily mobilized. You should understand this very well.”

Dr. Querzaros smiled bitterly. “Alright, I understand.”

Then, he sighed.

“However, I keep feeling that if we leave these two rats alone, there will definitely be a huge problem. Don’t you think it’s very strange for the royal family of the Declan Empire to place the second stage of their Garden Hunting Assembly in the Endless Abyss? I suspect that they did it on purpose. The two young fellows I encountered previously definitely did not unintentionally barge in. It’s very likely that they have the intention of the Declan Empire or the Noctem Chamber of Commerce.”

Outside the door, the corners of Chu Nan’s mouth could not help but twitch.

He was really sorry. He and Angie Prairie had really unintentionally broken through to the 40th floor and collided with Dr. Querzaros. As for chasing them all the way here, it was on purpose.

“There’s no need to think too much. We have to decide what to do according to the strength we have. The reality is that we don’t have the ability to care so much.” Director Romon still did not agree with Dr. Querzaros’s thoughts, “Just as you told them previously, the first thing we have to do is to destroy the teleportation door. If the teleportation door is all destroyed, even if the Declan Empire has any plans, they can only be forced to stop. If they can’t come over, they naturally can’t do anything. As for the rats who came here… they can’t do anything alone.”

“Alright, I hope so.” Dr. Querzaros sighed softly.

The two of them chatted for a while more before the door opened and two figures walked out.

One of them was naturally Dr. Querzaros. The other person who was much shorter and had completely white hair should be Director Romon.

The two of them walked out and walked past Chu Nan.

Chu Nan immediately focused and used the Hidden Dragon Reconnaissance Technique to the limit. The Internal Breath in his entire body controlled the spatial energy around him to completely fuse with the external space and did not dare to reveal any flaws.

Dr. Querzaros and Director Romon were both powerful. If they were accidentally exposed, they might be in great danger.

The two of them chatted as they walked out the door. When they saw that they were walking past Chu Nan as if they had turned into the passageway beside him, Director Romon’s chest suddenly felt slightly loose. A small animal that looked like a small squirrel and was even several times smaller suddenly crawled out of his chest and climbed onto his shoulder.

Seeing the small animal raise its head and turn its two small eyeballs in his direction, Chu Nan’s heart skipped a beat and he shouted that something was wrong.

In the next moment, the small animal opened its mouth, and a small light that was like lightning shot out and flew towards Chu Nan.
