1091 His Highness the Prince
In a huge room on the upper floor of the space station, virtual screens were displaying the situation of every part of the space station, including the entire space station from top to bottom without holding back.
Hundreds of staff were working nervously. Everyone was highly tense and did not dare to relax at all.
This time, the Empire’s royal family had chosen the Palermo Galaxy as the venue of the Garden Hunting Assembly. To them, the people of the Palermo Galaxy, it was both a huge honor and a huge pressure.
If they were not careful and something went wrong, not only would it embarrass them in front of the entire Milky Way, it would also greatly embarrass the royal family. Therefore, the consequences were definitely not something they could bear.
The commander of the Palermo Star Field, Paramel, stood in the center of the huge monitoring room. As he maintained his attention at all times and observed every possible situation, he carefully accompanied an extremely dignified middle-aged man who gave people extremely terrifying pressure just by standing there. From time to time, he would raise his hand to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead and carefully explain to the person beside him.
The person beside him only looked at the monitoring screen in front of him and occasionally asked. Most of the time, he maintained a cold appearance, causing people to not dare to approach him easily.
This situation had already lasted for three days.
Since this Prince Lekas arrived at the Palermo Star System three days ago, he had been guarding this monitoring room and asked that he could not let go of every corner of the entire Palermo Star System. He had to be closely monitored.
Therefore, at his request, the pitiful Paramel could only forcefully endure his high nervousness and personally command here.
If not for the fact that Paramel was a powerful fifth-stage Heaven Control expert, just these three consecutive days of sleeplessness would be enough to completely defeat him, let alone maintain high-intensity work.
One had to know that the staff in this monitoring room could still perform three shifts to ensure that there was enough rest, but no one could replace him as the commander of the star zone.
However, even the extremely noble Prince Lekas did not rest for three days, so how could he dare to have any complaints?
“Go check when those kids’ ships will arrive,” Prince Lekas suddenly said.
Paramel was stunned for a moment before understanding.
The “kids” that the Prince spoke of were naturally the descendants of the royal family who were also coming to participate in this Garden Hunting Assembly.
There was no need to get his subordinates to investigate. As the commander of the star system held by the Garden Hunting Assembly, he naturally paid the most attention to these royal descendants who had come to participate in the Garden Hunting Assembly.
He replied with a smile, “Actually, they’re already here. Your Highness, look…”
Prince Lekas looked in the direction Paramel pointed and saw that on the virtual screen, a large spaceship that looked a little different from other spaceships and looked much more luxurious with the traditional style of the Declan Empire had already stopped at the berth of the space station.
At this moment, the cabin door of the spaceship opened and some equally young boys and girls walked out.
“Heh, these brats are still quite energetic.” Seeing these young martial artists, Prince Lekas smiled and cursed, “However, in two days, I want to see how many of them can still laugh.”
“Your Highness, you must be joking.” Paramel immediately smiled apologetically, “They’re all elite descendants of the royal family. There’s no doubt that their strength is outstanding. In my opinion, it’s not them who won’t be able to smile in two days, but these guys…”
Paramel was referring to the other virtual screens. The scene displayed on them was the young martial artists from other countries who were getting out of other spaceships or wandering around the space station.
Prince Lekas laughed, but then he shook his head and said seriously, “You can’t say that. Occasionally, some good fellows will appear among those backward barbarians. In the past, in every Garden Hunting Assembly, they would always bring some surprises to the empire. Right, how many people have you chosen to pay attention to this time?”
Paramel immediately operated his personal terminal and pulled out a list that he displayed in front of Prince Lekas.
“Your Highness, take a look. This is a list we made according to the information gathered by many parties. This list is all considered according to their masters, past achievements, and so on. Take a look and see any mistakes?”
Prince Lekas waved his hand without any intention of looking.
“You don’t have to show me this. As long as you know what you’re doing, it’s fine. It might be useful in the final evaluation.”
Paramel immediately nodded. “Your Highness is right.”
Prince Lekas raised his head to look at the virtual screen that displayed the scene of the group of royal descendants again. He suddenly smiled and sighed, “Speaking of which, if not for the fact that there are some outstanding kids in this batch of royal descendants, His Majesty would not have thought of holding this Garden Hunting Assembly again. Originally, we had always been worried that no especially outstanding talent had appeared in the royal family for so many years. If we can’t even confirm His Majesty’s heir, it will bring us a lot of trouble. However, from the looks of it, there’s some hope.”
Paramel’s heart stirred. He glanced at the similarly large number of royal descendants on the virtual screen and asked softly, “Your Highness, I wonder who you think the most highly of?”
Prince Lekas turned around and looked at Paramel with a faint smile.
“It’s meaningless to tell you now. You’ll naturally know after this Garden Hunting Assembly ends.”
Paramel immediately revealed an understanding expression and nodded with a smile.
Prince Lekas looked at the royal descendants on the virtual screen again. Just as he was about to speak again, his expression suddenly changed.
“What’s going on?”
Paramel looked in the direction Prince Lekas pointed, but he did not discover anything wrong. He asked in confusion, “Your Highness, what do you mean?”
Prince Lekas sneered, “Can’t you tell? Why did you let them take another passageway? Did you arrange this?”
Only then did Paramel understand and hurriedly explained, “Your Highness, I was worried that those barbarians from the countryside would collide with the noble princes and princesses, so I let them use another passageway. This is also…”
“Shut up!” Prince Lekas suddenly became furious and shouted sternly, “Paramel, are you looking down on the royal family?”
Paramel was immediately shocked and hurriedly waved his hand, “Your Highness, what are you talking about? How can I look down on the royal family? Even if you give me great courage, I won’t dare!”
“Then you actually dare to deliberately arrange for them to take another special passageway? Hmm? Aren’t you looking down on them? Do you think they don’t even have the courage to come into contact with others?”
Looking at the furious Prince Lekas, Paramel could not help but complain in his mind.
This was indeed his deliberate arrangement. He originally thought that giving those royal descendants special treatment was a small bootlicking, but he did not expect that this bootlicking would immediately hit the horseshoes and anger Prince Lekas.
“Stop immediately and chase these brats to the space station. If they don’t even have the courage to face the enemy, what qualifications do they have to inherit the noble royal family?!” Prince Lekas pointed at the virtual screen and ordered loudly.
Paramel did not dare to have any thoughts of refuting and hurriedly gave a few orders to his surrounding subordinates.
A moment later, a gate suddenly fell, blocking the path of the special passageway.
The princes and princesses who had just gotten out of the spaceship were clearly shocked by this accident. It was not until a gap opened in the other passageway that they hesitantly walked out.
Soon, they walked out of another secret exit and entered the hall of the space station that was already crowded.
Because it was too sudden, this group of people surged into the space station, immediately causing the already chaotic space station to become even more chaotic.
In the blink of an eye, several direct conflicts had already erupted in the space station.
Seeing this chaotic scene, not only was Prince Lekas not unhappy, he even pointed at the virtual screen and laughed.
“Little brats, the Hunting Assembly has already begun!”
Beside him, Paramel did not dare to refute. He could only stare at the virtual screen and smile bitterly while praying in his mind.
“Oh great God of War, please don’t let anyone die at this moment…”
