Hilton's flushed face made Chu Nan feel that his lungs might be blown out by the anger. His face changed from gloomy to bright, as if he was struggling on the edge of an attack.
At the moment, Chu Nan, Jue Aotian and Huo Wu Jiutian are in a very awkward and unfavorable situation. Once they are involved in this kind of struggle, they will not be able to survive alone and must rely on one of them. However, Chu Nan
I think, if he really has to make a choice, Jue Aotian will definitely side with Hilton. After all, Hilton has given him obvious benefits. Chu Nan himself has no choice, and Claude still has his best friend.
He needed the navigation chart, so he had to secretly be wary of Jue Aotian. As for Huo Wu Jiutian, he should have no direct relationship with any party for the time being. Her choice is very important, because the new marshal Yuri also
Already secretly standing in front of Hilton, the guards in the hall also pointed their weapons towards Claude. Claude's strength was really too weak.
Damn it! If this fight really breaks out, Claude will definitely die! Is it another one who will die by leaning on someone? Chu Nan is secretly depressed, wondering if he has to gamble again and put his gambling money on Claude.
Or it might be a good choice to take advantage of your ability to sneak out and take advantage of the chaos to go around the royal city and dig up something useful.
Fortunately, at this critical moment of tension, King Stuart spoke again.
"Actually, a navigation chart is not interesting. Since Uncle Claude has a navigation chart to Treasure Island, we will immediately organize a fleet to go to Treasure Island.
It would be great if we completely wipe out the pirates..."
Although King Stewart's voice stuttered from time to time, as if he didn't dare to offend anyone, his words at this critical moment slightly relaxed the almost freezing air around him. He spoke
The timing was chosen so well that Chu Nan couldn't help but wonder if the young king was pretending to be stupid.
After the atmosphere calmed down, Yuri and the guards in the hall immediately retreated, and then Claude said: "Your Majesty, as I said just now, I only have part of the navigation chart. If I want to go to Treasure Island,
It is necessary to collect four nautical charts."
"Then... then go and find... whoever finds the nautical chart will be... rewarded heavily." King Stuart said.
After Claude saluted, he withdrew.
If Stewart had said this from the beginning, Chu Nan might still believe it, but after experiencing the so-called tasteless reward for a rising star just now, Chu Nan believed that he was a ghost. He closed his eyes silently, feeling secretly happy.
: Damn, the remaining three are all in my possession. It depends on how you look for them. I won’t give them to you unless I get a duke or some other practical reward.
After Claude left, Chu Nan and the other three also exited the hall. Under the leadership of another guard, they walked back to the gate of the royal city.
When he was walking halfway, he was suddenly stopped by another knight in silver armor. He pointed at Huowu Jiutian and others respectively, and then said to the guard leading him: "I will take these two people away."
Jue Aotian frowned.
Chu Nan felt even more uneasy in his heart. Could it be that Hilton was going to give him small shoes? But when he thought about it carefully, he felt something was wrong. After all, Hilton didn't dislike Huo Wu Jiutian. If he wanted to wear small shoes, he should just do it to him.
He was alone. Moreover, Chu Nan carefully glanced at the knight in shining armor in front of him, and his equipment was very similar to the group of knights led by Caroline.
Thinking of this, Chu Nan's eyes immediately turned to the name of the knight in silver armor.
Deputy Commander of the Templar Guards——Duncan.
Is this Caroline's old department? Has Caroline already told them to take special care of her? But this assumption is illogical, because Fire Dance Jiutian is also among them.
While he was thinking, Jue Aotian had already been taken out by the guard just now. Then Duncan turned to Chu Nan and Huo Wu Jiutian and said, "Please follow me."
Chu Nan and Huo Wu Jiutian looked at each other, and the former asked softly: "Do you know what the situation is?"
"It should be beneficial to us. This mission cannot make our trip in vain." Huo Wu Jiutian replied.
Chu Nan felt that her guess was probably pretty accurate, otherwise, the mission of "Star of Tomorrow" would be too tricky.
Duncan took the two of them on a side road and arrived at a remote room. The light in the room was very dark, the windows were closed tightly, and thick dark curtains were pulled open. Only the two sides of the room were lit.
There were several quietly burning oil lamps, and the layout of all this gave the whole room a sense of mystery.
"People have been brought here." Duncan said solemnly towards the dark end of the room.
"Okay, let them come over."
The voice in the darkness seemed familiar, as if they had heard it somewhere before. After recalling it for a moment, Chu Nan and Huo Wu Jiutian were stunned at the same time.
This voice turned out to be that of the young King Stuart just now, but this time, his voice clearly lacked the timidity it had just now.
"This guy is really pretending to be stupid!" Chu Nan said secretly in his heart.
Then the two of them followed Duncan forward for several meters, and then they saw the face of King Stewart. He stood with his hands behind his hands. The childish timidity he showed when he was sitting on the golden throne just now seemed mature this time.
A lot.
"We don't have much time, so let's keep the story short. After the brief meeting just now, I think you should know that although I am the king, my actual power has long been evaded and controlled by Hilton. Now I ask you, are you willing to be loyal to me and help me?"
Do I get rid of Hilton?" Stewart said quickly.
System prompt: Are you willing to be loyal to King Stewart and assist the king in eradicating Hilton?
This is really straightforward... After hearing this system prompt, Chu Nan couldn't help being startled, and even Huo Wu Jiutian looked surprised.
Chu Nan naturally had a war between heaven and man in his heart, because he was already loyal to Caroline. If Caroline and the king were also against each other, then who should they help in the future?
"I do." Huo Wu Jiutian agreed directly after thinking for a brief 3 seconds, and then her and King Stuart's eyes suddenly fell on Chu Nan.
"Don't you want to?" asked the king.
Chu Nan smiled bitterly in his heart, you all look at me like this, do I still have a choice?
"I do." Chu Nan said.
"Okay, Caroline mentioned you in her secret letter to me, saying that you are a talent that can be cultivated, and you are also one of the targets of this pirate attack - the mayor of Eastwatch. I am very optimistic about you."
System prompt: King Stuart's favorability towards you increases by 10
