“Five low-altitude shuttles are approaching.” Chu Nan pointed at the virtual screen in front of him and reminded Dong Fang.
“It should be the other party’s people.” Dong Fang glanced at it and stood up to make way, “Come, it’s your turn to drive. Stop and don’t move when you get close. You don’t have to say anything after seeing the other party’s people. Leave everything to me.”
“Okay.”
Chu Nan sat in the driver’s seat. Due to his experience driving the super small low-altitude shuttle given to him by the Noctem Chamber of Commerce, he seemed to be very skilled and did not look like a newbie.
Dong Fang glanced at Chu Nan in surprise and did not ask further. Instead, he lined up his belongings and clothes and waited patiently.
Before long, the five low-altitude shuttles opposite him approached.
Under Dong Fang’s signal, Chu Nan saw the super small low-altitude shuttle stop and the five low-altitude shuttles surrounded it.
Dong Fang opened his personal terminal and operated it for a while before letting Chu Nan follow the five low-altitude shuttles in the direction they came from.
Before long, a large building complex suddenly appeared in the wasteland ahead. It occupied an extremely large area, and at first glance, one would think that a small city had suddenly appeared here.
“Heh, these guys from the United States of Melaita are really willing to spend money. No wonder their attitude is so unyielding.” Dong Fang glanced down through the window of the ultra-small low-altitude shuttle and praised softly.
“Are you sure these are all from the United States of Melaita?” Chu Nan asked in surprise.
“No, on the surface, they don’t have the identity of the United States of Melaita, but in fact, the person behind them is indeed the United States of Melaita.”
Chu Nan frowned and said in surprise, “If the United States of Melaita is really interested in Planet Leppler, can’t they just send troops to occupy it? Why do they have to go through so much trouble?”
“That won’t do. The reason why the Sapphire Star Field is like this is because its geographical location is special and is related to many galaxies. If the United States of Melaita dares to directly send troops to occupy it, it will definitely cause many other countries to rebound. It might even… attract the attention of the Perseus Arm. The United States of Melaita won’t be so stupid to do such an unprofitable thing.”
When he recalled that the Sapphire Star Field had the only stargate on the outside of the Orion Arm that led directly to the Perseus Arm, Chu Nan immediately understood Dong Fang’s words.
The main reason why the Sapphire Star Field became the Chaotic Star Field was because no faction on the outside of the Orion Arm could completely control it.
The United States of Melaita was not the Declan Empire, so they naturally did not dare to easily do such a thing that might anger the public.
Instead of occupying it with great fanfare, it was easier to actually obtain control through this method.
Of course, this method was also flawed. On the surface, he had to put aside his relationship with the United States of Melaita. Many things were not that convenient.
The reason why Dong Fang could find a chance to negotiate with these people was clearly because he had made use of this.
Surrounded by the five low-altitude shuttles, Chu Nan piloted the super small low-altitude shuttle to land on a helipad outside the small city in the wasteland below. Then, he walked out of the cabin with Dong Fang.
Seeing that several burly men were holding him up with weapons, Dong Fang immediately raised his hands and maintained a brilliant smile.
Chu Nan followed suit and raised his hands in a posture that he would not resist.
The other party sent two people to search Dong Fang and Chu Nan in detail. Only then did one of them, a middle-aged man who did not look so strong and did not have the obvious military aura of the surrounding burly men, ask, “Dong Fang, right? Didn’t I say that you were the only one allowed?”
Dong Fang smiled and pointed at Chu Nan, “He’s in charge of driving. Don’t look at me like this, I don’t know how to fly a shuttle.”
The middle-aged man nodded, agreeing with Dong Fang’s explanation. Then, he waved his hand.
“Let’s go.”
Chu Nan wanted to follow, but he was immediately blocked by two burly men.
“You’re not allowed to move. Wait here obediently.” The middle-aged man berated Chu Nan before urging Dong Fang, “Hurry up, the leader is waiting.”
“Some important information is on him. If he doesn’t follow, I’m afraid there’ll be a problem.” Dong Fang pointed at Chu Nan.
The middle-aged man frowned and sneered, “How can you put important information on your subordinates? Are you lying to me?”
“How can that be?” Dong Fang shrugged, “This information is very important. I don’t dare to keep it alone, so I divided a portion and placed it on him. Only when the two of them are together can it be completely combined. This is also a safe method, right?”
The middle-aged man frowned. Clearly, he did not believe Dong Fang’s nonsense, but from his attitude, he was clearly unwilling to leave his subordinates here.
After thinking for a moment, he walked to the side and opened his personal terminal. He contacted someone opposite him for a while and walked back.
“Alright, the leader specially approved him to go with you. However, remember, don’t think of playing any tricks. Otherwise, you’re courting death!”
Dong Fang laughed, “Mr. Dorwell, you’re really filtering it. There are only two of us in total. Even if we want to play tricks, what can we do?”
The middle-aged man called Dorwell nodded without comment.
In fact, the leader agreed to let Dong Fang bring another person over because he felt that there would be no problem with it.
Even if this subordinate of Dong Fang seemed to have cultivated some martial techniques, his Internal Breath was not obvious and the spatial energy around him was not abnormal. At most, he was a low-level Internal Breath Martial Artist or even an Overlord Body Martial Artist. He was useless.
He looked so young. It was impossible for him to be a super expert who could conceal his energy completely.
Under Dorwell’s lead, the two of them got into an old fuel locomotive and quickly drove towards the center of the small city.
The road was bumpy, but Dong Fang did not stay idle. He took this opportunity to chat with Dorwell.
Although it was obvious that Dorwell did not want to say much, Dong Fang’s conversation technique was extremely good. In the end, he still chatted with him.
When they got out of the car, the originally nervous atmosphere between the two of them had actually greatly eased. They were as enthusiastic and familiar as two old acquaintances.
Chu Nan had long understood Dong Fang’s ability in this aspect. In the past, when he was in West Cloud Academy, this kid had successfully convinced countless people with his glib tongue. Now that he saw it again, he was still deeply impressed.
The fuel locomotive carried everyone to a building that was clearly larger than the surrounding area in the center of the small city. Dorwell and Dong Fang got out first. Chu Nan followed and heard a familiar voice.
Turning around, he was immediately stunned.
