If it were another ti, Chen Gu would definitely be willing to show off his great sword and join Senior Rainbow for so mutual appreciation—however, for now, with Valkyrie Aviloya present, he's decided to make a quick getaway.
After returning to the Special Action Brigade's floor, Chen Jixian nonchalantly told him, "This ti it's a secret mission. Go back by yourself."
The veteran team mbers like Marcus wanted their travel expenses covered to go see things, but Chen Jixian blocked them.
Chen Gu raised his eyebrows; so of his past experiences are imprisoned in Wuzhaoyin City's Second Prison. Obviously, his son is trying to save face, preventing that dark history from being exposed to the new team mbers, especially since he's now a deputy team leader of so stature and needs prestige.
This guy still has so filial piety, right? I won't criticize him as ungrateful in my heart anymore.
Yet Chen Jixian shot Milgray a seemingly official glance, still slightly indifferent as he asked, "Taking her back too?"
The matters concerning Milgray had been communicated to him by Aviloya, although it was just her unilaterally informing him that everything regarding Milgray is Chen Gu's full responsibility, advising him not to interfere.
Chen Gu found it amusing; was it concern for the mission or simply the worry about having a stepmother?
"Taking her," Chen Gu didn't offer any explanation. It was clear Chen Jixian wanted to continue asking questions, but given his character, he couldn't bring himself to do so, and thus the older son left awkwardly as if he were constipated.
Chen Gu left the headquarters building, first taking Milgray back to school. Their spaceship was set to depart at four in the afternoon.
Upon arriving at school, he was called over by his ntor, Zhong Yuanbei.
Milgray was sowhat surprised, "You have a ntor?"
Chen Gu chuckled awkwardly, thinking to himself, he almost forgot that too.
Zhong Yuanbei didn't even let Chen Gu enter the door, tossing him an encrypted storage device, "It's from the principal. Also, don't forget what you promised ; the next enrollnt season is approaching quickly."
"Don't worry, at least four sturdy, capable, tough apprentices!" Chen Gu patted his chest, "Leave it to , even if I have to tie them up for you."
Zhong Yuanbei nodded in satisfaction, "Well, you still have a conscience, go ahead with your little wife and scoot."
A trace of coldness flashed in Milgray's silver eyes, but her face maintained a programd smile.
Chen Gu shivered a bit, on the way back, he didn't even have the peace of mind to check what's inside the encrypted storage device, anxious and hesitant—several tis he wanted to speak but stopped, and finally, he mustered up the courage to ask, "Superlife really has a broad mind, right?"
Milgray looked at Chen Gu with interest, "You... seem to care a lot about this ntor with not much presence?"
Chen Gu sighed, "The ntor protects a lot."
When he first ca to [Huai Shan Branch School], Zhong Yuanbei, who shielded him, really stood up for Chen Gu several tis. Without Zhong Yuanbei's protection during that period, Chen Gu would have had a tough ti.
Every ti Chen Gu got into trouble and sought "help" from his ntor, Zhong Yuanbei, despite grumbling, always dropped his experints, rushing over to fiercely beat those who bullied Chen Gu.
Milgray nodded, "It's just a slip of tongue from that old guard; I'll not take it to heart."
Chen Gu breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you."
Milgray smiled and said no more.
With a few hours left before departure, Milgray wanted to eat, and Chen Gu was hungry too. But unexpectedly, Milgray consud an entire 120 million worth of food in one go!
She almost ate the entire cafeteria empty! And of course, Chen Gu paid—Great Actor Chen realized that the "generosity" of superlife costs 120 million Starshield!
Great Actor Chen's heart was bleeding; earning so modest money isn't easy, how could you bear it?
After dinner, Chen Gu finally opened the encrypted storage device and imdiately beca engrossed.
This was the [Atomic Holy Church]'s secret technique [Super Nucleus Three Swords], it consisted of only three moves, but each move was all-encompassing and endlessly varied, showcasing the profession's abilities to their fullest. Compared to the related professional martial arts Chen Gu had previously gained from the [Atomic Holy Church], this was vastly superior.
Even compared to Milna Katerina's [Nuclear Combat Technique] in Chen Gu's mory, it paled slightly.
With this set of [Super Nucleus Three Swords], even if Chen Gu reached the Ninth Power Level, he wouldn't have to worry about martial arts.
For the rest of the ti, until they boarded the spaceship to Empire River Star, Chen Gu was totally imrsed in comprehending this set of battle techniques.
Milgray quietly followed beside Chen Gu, without interrupting him.
Boarding the spaceship, Chen Gu rembered the matter of the 21st and voluntarily entered the sleep chamber. But this ti, the counterpart didn't appear.
After a long interstellar voyage, Chen Gu finally returned to Wuzhaoyin City.
For him, the place didn't evoke much of a "hotown" feeling, as he hadn't truly grown up here. To Chen Gu, it felt more like just another city he had worked in.
Milgray followed Chen Gu off the spaceship, glanced around, and said plainly, "A small place."
Compared to Capital Star, this place indeed was small.
Chen Gu headed directly to the branch bureau; Director i had been promoted previously to branch director but was later transferred to another city.
