Master Of Martial Arts Has An Advanced Optical Brain Novel - Chapter 886
886 The Greatest Miscalculation
If an outsider was in this room now, they would definitely be shocked.
This was because at this moment, in this room that could not be considered especially large, it was actually filled with 13 people in a row.
If they knew the identities of these 13 people, it would only shock them even more.
This was because among these 13 people, other than the current President of the United States of Melaita, Savoy, who was extremely familiar to all the citizens of the United States of Melaita, and who had often specially invited five Star-Grade Martial Artists to the competition that had appeared in the various major media outlets in the past few years,
!!
Apart from that, the other seven were the ambassadors of the various countries to the United States of Melaita on the Orion Arm. They were considered important figures in various countries.
When such 13 important figures gathered together, the atmosphere was really so silent and oppressive. It was incompatible with the atmosphere of the revelry in the outside world, so it naturally seemed extremely strange.
After a moment of silence, President Savoy said in a low voice, “Everyone, on behalf of the United States of Melaita, I want to make it clear to you that this incident has nothing to do with the United States of Melaita. We don’t know anything in advance. Please don’t misunderstand.”
The seven political figures from other countries looked at each other. One of them, a square-faced middle-aged man with a bald head, slowly shook his head and said, “Mr. President, now is not the time to pursue this. We only want to ask if there’s any news about our missing participants?”
President Savoy glanced at the middle-aged man and frowned slightly.
“There are indeed some clues, but…”
“But what?” The middle-aged man’s expression froze, and the other six people cast their gazes on President Savoy.
President Savoy frowned even more. He paused for a moment before continuing, “According to some clues we’ve obtained so far, it’s very likely that those missing participants have been sent out of our United States of Melaita…”
“How is this possible?!” The middle-aged man interrupted President Savoy without any grace and said in surprise, “These guys can actually kidnap so many people and leave the United States of Melaita under tight defense. I strongly doubt your country’s security measures!”
Although the others did not say it explicitly, their gazes were also serious and their expressions were dissatisfied. Clearly, they remained suspicious of President Savoy’s words.
President Savoy shook his head and thought to himself that if not for the fact that the United States of Melaita indeed had an undeniable responsibility in this matter, as the president of a country, how could he be so bluntly doubted by this person?
He did not answer the middle-aged man’s question. Instead, he opened the personal terminal on his wrist and pulled out the virtual screen, displaying the image of a spaceship that did not look abnormal.
“What’s this?” The others looked at each other.
“According to the clues we’ve discovered so far, all the suspicious points point to this spaceship. It’s very likely that those missing participants from the various countries were transported out of our country through this spaceship.”
“Why?” The middle-aged man still had an extremely rude attitude and pointed out bluntly, “Since you’ve already suspected this spaceship, how can you easily let it go?”
“Please look here…” President Savoy reached out and pointed somewhere in the spaceship.
Everyone focused their gazes and their expressions immediately changed.
“The Noctem Chamber of Commerce?”
Everyone easily recognized that the symbol of the spaceship represented that it belonged to the Noctem Chamber of Commerce.
Moreover, everyone present knew far more about the Noctem Chamber of Commerce than ordinary people. Naturally, they could tell that the meaning of this symbol was deeper than the ordinary Noctem Chamber of Commerce. It meant that this spaceship was a spaceship with special authority inside the Noctem Chamber of Commerce. It was definitely not something ordinary commercial trading spaceships could compare to.
“Could it be that this was done by the Noctem Chamber of Commerce?” another ambassador from the Figg Empire asked with a frown.
“No.” President Savoy shook his head and his finger operated his personal terminal again, displaying a document, “This is a statement sent to our country by the officials of the Noctem Chamber of Commerce yesterday. They hope that our country will assist in tracking down the defector of their Chamber of Commerce. It’s the former branch of the Noctem Chamber of Commerce stationed on Planet Tomrelle, Jiggs.”
Hearing this news, the seven ambassadors from the various countries looked at each other, surprise flashing through their eyes.
They were all ambassadors to the United States of Melaita, so they were naturally talented people. In an instant, they analyzed a lot of information from this information.
A moment later, the Ambassador of the Tulado Republic to the United States of Melaita who had spoken first asked with a frown, “Then where is this spaceship now? Is there any further news of the situation of those participating students?”
President Savoy did not answer. Instead, he turned to look at Supremacy Melanie.
Supremacy Melanie met everyone’s gazes and replied with a bitter smile, “We did track where they went after that spaceship through the clues, but… it’s very troublesome to chase those students back through this clue…”
“Why?” The others were stunned, their expressions puzzled.
These people represented several powerful countries on the Orion Arm. Now that those missing participating students were gathered, the power behind them was extremely powerful. Supremacy Melanie was the strongest Star-Grade Martial Artist, so what could make her feel troubled?
“Because… according to the clues, that spaceship had already passed through the spiral arm stargate of the Sapphire Star Field four days ago and officially entered the Perseus Arm.”
Everyone fell silent at the same time, and the atmosphere in the room became even more oppressive.
Among the three great spiral arms of the Milky Way, the Orion Arm was the most normal. Although the Declan Empire was the strongest, the other countries also had their own sphere of influence. Everything followed the basic rules of the Milky Way. If anything happened, it could be discussed.
On the Sagittarius Arm, the Noctem Chamber of Commerce covered the sky with one hand. However, because of the characteristics and goals of the Noctem Chamber of Commerce, if anything happened, they could discuss it or even directly make a deal with it.
Only the situation of the Perseus Arm was extremely different from the other two spiral arms.
Although the Erehuana Military Treaty Alliance that controlled the entire Perseus Arm was not a complete country, this special military treaty alliance was extremely xenophobic. It did not interact much with all the countries on the Orion Arm. Even the Noctem Chamber of Commerce had difficulty extending its tentacles into it so far. Therefore, when it came to the Perseus Arm, the first impression in everyone’s minds was like another world.
Now that this suspected spaceship had actually jumped into the Perseus Arm, this incident was very likely related to the Erehuana Military Treaty Alliance.
Even if it was not ordered by the Erehuana Military Treaty Alliance, if it was done by a country under their name, with the usual style of the Erehuana Military Treaty Alliance, they would probably not cooperate with the investigation requirements of these countries on the Orion Arm.
It was almost impossible to enter the Perseus Arm officially to investigate.
The other seven ambassadors quickly thought of the key point and their gazes landed on the five Star-Grade Martial Artists, including Supremacy Melanie.
Supremacy Melanie smiled, “Please don’t worry, these participating students happened in this competition. As specially invited judges of this competition, the five of us will also bear the corresponding responsibility. I won’t interfere in the decisions of the four of them. I announce in my personal name now that I’ll personally enter the Perseus Arm and investigate the whereabouts of those missing students to give you a clear explanation!”
The seven ambassadors were stunned again.
On the surface, with a powerful Star-Grade Martial Artist like Supremacy Melanie making such a statement, it would definitely be extremely helpful in resolving this matter.
However, on careful thought, even a powerful Star-Grade Martial Artist like Supremacy Melanie had been mobilized… Was there a need?
“But…” Another ambassador frowned, “Supremacy Melanie, I definitely don’t doubt your ability, but after so long, can you really find the whereabouts of those students on the Perseus Arm? Most importantly, whether those students are still alive… I also doubt it.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the others frowned.
This was the problem that everyone was most worried about.
Although the other party had deliberately kidnapped these participants and must have had another use, he would not easily take their lives.
However, up until now, no one could be sure.
Hearing this question, Supremacy Melanie revealed a relaxed smile.
“Don’t worry, everyone. I might not be sure about the other students, but…” She suddenly turned to a silent middle-aged man in the room.
Everyone’s gazes turned over with her and discovered that she was looking at the ambassador of the Earth Federation to the United States of Melaita, Luo Jiaxin.
“Those people actually captured Chu Nan this time. Perhaps it’s their greatest mistake.”
Everyone looked at each other. Even Luo Jiaxin was stunned.
They did not understand why Supremacy Melanie specially mentioned Chu Nan.
Even if it was rumored that this student had successfully condensed a star cloud in the competition and had already become a Heaven Control Martial Artist, since he had been captured, it proved that his strength was only so-so.
Could such a young martial artist cause any trouble in a place like the Perseus Arm?
