Chapter 1707 - 1707 The Deepest Place of the Endless Abyss
1707 The Deepest Place of the Endless Abyss
His Majesty Lekas’s friendly visit to the Earth Federation took a total of ten days.
To a normal state visit, this time was already a little long. Moreover, this was the highest visit of the Declan Empire to a small border country like the Earth Federation. Ten days had already exceeded normal.
However, to the citizens of the Earth Federation, ten days seemed to have passed in a flash.
His Majesty of the Declan Empire, who had an extremely high status in the entire Milky Way, finally came to the Earth Federation, but he only stayed for ten days before leaving. It really felt too short.
Of course, no one could easily decide His Majesty Lekas’s schedule, and no one knew that when he left, he had also taken away the hero with the greatest reputation in the Earth Federation, Chu Nan.
With the help of the simple teleportation network that was not perfected by the Noctem Chamber of Commerce but had already contacted a few important locations, His Majesty Lekas and Chu Nan only used less than five days to cross the journey that would take more than two months to complete in the past and cross more than 30,000 light-years to arrive at the outermost entrance of the Endless Abyss.
It had been more than six years since the last Garden Hunting Assembly was held here. The outer layer of the Endless Abyss had long returned to its usual scene.
His Majesty Lekas and the five Star-Grade Martial Artists directly under the royal family of the Declan Empire brought Chu Nan into the Endless Abyss and entered continuously through the teleportation door.
When he entered the 41st floor from the 40th floor, Chu Nan deliberately passed by the teleportation door that had been destroyed and was now built by the Noctem Chamber of Commerce and the Declan Empire to confirm that everything was normal.
Along the way, the group did not alarm anyone and passed through the Endless Abyss as quickly as possible. Soon, they passed through the deepest level that Chu Nan had entered when he participated in the Garden Hunting Assembly.
As he continued to advance deeper, Chu Nan quickly discovered that the direction they were headed was completely different from when he saw Pope Lockmarton. The feeling of each level of the Endless Abyss was even more different.
The deeper they went, the more serious the extremely condensed spatial energy unique to the Endless Abyss became. Towards the end, it was as if it was material, causing even Chu Nan and the others to feel that their movements were obstructed.
One had to know that these few of them were all powerful Star-Grade Martial Artists, but they had already become like this here. If ordinary people or relatively low-level martial artists appeared here, they would probably be unable to move at all. It would even be a problem for them to survive.
Moreover, the feeling brought about by passing through the teleportation door was different every time. It was as if every time he passed through, his entire body would be baptized. That feeling was extremely uncomfortable, but after persisting, he clearly felt that he had become more sensitive to the spatial energy fluctuations around him.
Chu Nan guessed that this might be a screening mechanism in the Endless Abyss. If he could not even endure the change in spatial energy and environment brought about by passing through the teleportation door, it proved that he did not have the ability to head to the next level. It was best to retreat as soon as possible.
Under the lead of His Majesty Lekas, Chu Nan and the other five Star-Grade Martial Artists of the Declan royal family silently moved forward, their speed still abnormally fast.
When he passed through the 83rd teleportation door, theoretically speaking, he should have already entered the 83rd floor of the Endless Abyss. His Majesty Lekas stopped.
“Chu Nan, do you know what kind of place the Endless Abyss is?” His Majesty Lekas asked him.
Chu Nan glanced at his surroundings and discovered that the place deep inside them was not even a physical planet, but like a ball of gas.
Of course, this gas was not air. It was more like the gasification state of a substance.
If he knew enough about astronomy, he would know that this should be some kind of gaseous star.
“I think… it should be the center of the Milky Way.” Chu Nan thought for a moment and replied, “The deeper I go in the Endless Abyss, the closer I am to the galactic center?”
“The first sentence is correct, but the second sentence is not.” His Majesty Lekas shook his head, “The true galactic center can’t be observed with existing methods, and no one knows how to go. Even if they go, they probably won’t know that they’re in the galactic center. However, it’s true that we’re in the galactic center area now. It’s not wrong to advance deeper into the Endless Abyss and get closer to the galactic center.”
“Is His Majesty Gremayne here?” Chu Nan asked again.
After a detailed discussion with His Majesty Lekas, Chu Nan knew many top-secret secrets that outsiders could not know.
Of course, His Majesty Gremayne was not killed by Prince Lekas as others had guessed. Instead, he came to the deepest part of the Endless Abyss and took the initiative to give up the throne.
The reason why he left in such a hurry was because what happened here prevented him from having more time to do those “trivial” things.
When he heard His Majesty Lekas’ explanation, Chu Nan still did not believe it.
What was more important than passing the throne?
One had to know that the fuse produced by the Declan Empire because of this matter had directly erupted with internal strife. It took nearly three years to finally calm down. The damage to the Declan Empire during this period was very serious, and it even almost gave the Erehuana Military Treaty Alliance a chance.
However, after hearing His Majesty Lekas’ next explanation, Chu Nan finally understood.
This matter was indeed very important, and the importance far exceeded Chu Nan’s imagination. It made His Majesty Gremayne have to deal with it immediately, causing him to not have enough time to deal with what happened after he left.
However, to be honest, the reason why the situation in the Declan Empire finally turned into internal strife was completely on purpose by His Majesty Lekas.
Although His Majesty Lekas did not explain this in detail, Chu Nan could naturally understand the meaning of his words.
Although this internal war had caused the Declan Empire to suffer heavy losses, with this internal strife, His Majesty Lekas stabilized his throne and cleaned up the rebellious nobles in the Declan Empire, causing his prestige in the Declan Empire to become extremely high. The final benefits were much stronger than a mere loss.
Of course, Chu Nan was not concerned about such political considerations. What he was concerned about was what His Majesty Gremayne was doing here.
Prince Lekas had told him that he would only understand if he saw it with his own eyes, so he was here now.
However, what about His Majesty Gremayne?
“I don’t know.” His Majesty Lekas’s answer surprised Chu Nan, “In order to stop those most dangerous things from being released, he has to follow the flow of those things and move at all times. There’s no fixed location. However, don’t worry, it’s not difficult for us to find him.”
Chu Nan followed behind His Majesty Lekas in confusion and headed deeper into the 83rd floor. As he felt the spatial energy that was so dense that it was visible to the naked eye and drifted around like mist in this Endless Abyss, he raised his mind to sense the energy fluctuations in a larger area.
Since His Majesty Lekas said that it was not difficult to find His Majesty Gremayne, it proved that he was not far away.
About an hour and a half later, the group finally found His Majesty Gremayne.
When he first saw him, Chu Nan almost did not recognize him.
