1302 You Are More Concerned About Him Than Me

The excited Nkosi was quickly called over by Prince Lekas.

“You encountered a special monster in Area E37?” Prince Lekas did not waste any time and asked directly, “What kind of monster is it? Describe it.”

“This…” Nkosi composed himself and recalled for a moment, but he did not know how to describe it. However, at this moment, he recalled Chu Nan’s words and hurriedly replied, “The monster is very huge. I estimate its length to be more than 20 meters. The thickest part is probably two to three meters tall, and its appearance… According to my companion, Chu Nan, who went with me, it looks very similar to a green worm called the Salemordo Butterfly-Spotted Green Insect. It’s just that it’s many times larger. Chu Nan even said that this huge worm might be a distant cousin of that green worm.”

After saying that, Nkosi chuckled, proud that he could still remain calm in front of Prince Lekas and even joke.

However, he quickly discovered that after Prince Lekas and the young man opposite him heard his words, the expressions on their faces became extremely strange.

“Chu Nan?”

“Chu Nan? Why is it this kid…”

Prince Lekas and the young man spoke in unison, looking surprised.

Seeing their expressions, Nkosi felt even stranger.

“About that… Your Highness, could it be that the two of you know Chu Nan?”

As soon as he said that, Nkosi suddenly reacted.

Chu Nan was a participant in the Garden Hunting Assembly and Prince Lekas was the representative of the royal family in charge of it. It did not seem strange for him to know Chu Nan…

No, that was not right!

Even if Chu Nan was a participant, it was said that there were thousands of participants in the second stage of the Garden Hunting Assembly. Why did Prince Lekas have the time to know everyone?

Moreover, the young man opposite him clearly had the symbol of the Noctem Chamber of Commerce on him. It was already very strange for him to appear here, so why did he know Chu Nan?

Nkosi instantly discovered that he knew too little about Chu Nan…

“Heh, it’s actually this guy again.” The young man from the Noctem Chamber of Commerce was naturally Elkart. After asking, he could not help but laugh, “I discovered that this kid’s ability to cause trouble everywhere is really not bad. Why does it seem like something will happen wherever he goes?”

Prince Lekas looked at Elkart suspiciously.

In fact, he was also very surprised that Elkart knew Chu Nan.

Logically speaking, as the chief data analyst of the Noctem Chamber of Commerce, Elkart should not have interacted with Chu Nan, a kid from the Earth Federation. However, from his tone, he seemed to be very familiar with him.

“Alright, let’s get back to business. Heh, your name is Nkosi? You just said that you and Chu Nan encountered that monster that’s like a huge worm. What happened next?”

“Then?” Nkosi was stunned for a moment before roughly explaining what happened next.

“Chu Nan and his girlfriend said that it’s very similar to this thing? It even has such a butterfly spot on its back?” Elkart pointed at the image on the virtual screen and asked Nkosi.

In fact, Nkosi had long had the intention to search for the Salemordo Butterfly-Spotted Green Insect on the Milky Way Network to verify if Chu Nan and Angie Prairie were talking nonsense. Now that he really saw this worm, he immediately discovered that Chu Nan and Angie Prairie were really not talking nonsense.

Putting aside its size, this worm was really identical to the three huge worms he had seen previously. Be it its overall form, external patterns, the butterfly spot on the most eye-catching back, its large mouth and sharp teeth, or its habit of being able to shuttle underground, they were all the same.

Of course, there were still some differences in the details. The most obvious thing was that the outer skin of the three huge worms looked greenish-brown like rocks and was extremely hard. However, the outer skin of this Salemordo Butterfly-Spotted Green Insect was really completely green, similar to ordinary caterpillars.

“No wonder Chu Nan said that they’re distant cousins…” Nkosi muttered and nodded affirmatively at Prince Lekas and Elkart, “Yes, that’s right. Those few large worms are indeed very similar to this worm. If not for the size comparison of the pictures here, I would even see them as completely identical.”

Hearing Nkosi’s answer, Prince Lekas and Elkart looked at each other and revealed “as expected” expressions.

“Elkart, it seems that the judgment you and those fellows from the military made is correct. If nothing unexpected happens, the situation should develop in the direction you deduced previously. However, the appearance of this large worm proves another problem. It can also be considered to have indirectly proven a guess we had long made.”

“What guess?” Elkart asked curiously.

Prince Lekas shook his head and did not answer. He turned to look at Nkosi and said, “You brought back a very important piece of news. The empire will remember your contribution. You can go down now.”

Nkosi was filled with questions and confusion, but under Prince Lekas’s unquestionable expression, he could only suppress his stomach full of questions and obediently bow before leaving.

After taking two steps, he suddenly seemed to have thought of something. He turned around and asked loudly, “Your Highness, is it very dangerous on the 13th floor of the E37 District? Aren’t you going to inform Chu Nan and the others?”

Prince Lekas looked at him coldly, “I don’t need you to teach me how to do things in the empire. Go down.”

Nkosi could only be helplessly escorted away by a few soldiers and the officer who had brought him here.

After watching Nkosi disappear out the door, Elkart smiled and said, “Your Highness, you don’t have to be so strict with him. No matter what, he’s a hero who brought important information.”

“He only verified our guess. It doesn’t affect anything if he’s not around. The only useful thing is to tell us where Chu Nan is now.”

“Oh?” Elkart was a little surprised, “Your Highness, you seem to be paying special attention to Chu Nan.”

“Aren’t you paying more attention to him than me?”

Elkart chuckled and did not answer this question. Instead, he asked, “Now that Chu Nan, a participant in the Garden Hunting Assembly, has happened to encounter this matter, what do you plan to do, Your Highness?”

Prince Lekas still had a cool and expressionless expression.

“If he can survive, it will naturally increase his chances of obtaining the final reward. This is a good thing for him. If he dies, it’s because his strength is insufficient and he can’t blame anyone. This is very fair, right?”

Elkart shrugged, “Since this is your decision, I have no objections. However…”

At this point, Elkart revealed a strange smile.

“According to my research on this kid’s past, he might even bring us a very unexpected result this time. At that time, Your Highness, don’t be surprised.”

Prince Lekas frowned slightly and looked at Elkart with a trace of doubt in his eyes.

How did this Elkart know Chu Nan?
