4 Only Wanting a Few Ships
Chu Nan indeed only asked for a few ships.
However, what he wanted was not ordinary ships, but top-notch cosmic battleships and some of the relevant technology of these battleships.
After cooperating with the Declan Empire and the Noctem Chamber of Commerce to study the teleportation door in the Endless Abyss and obtaining a major breakthrough, one day, Elkart suddenly asked what gift Chu Nan wanted as a reward for his contribution to the research institute.
Chu Nan did not mind at that time, so he casually joked. He said that if the Noctem Chamber of Commerce really wanted to reward him, they would give him a few top-notch cosmic battleships made by their Chamber of Commerce to play with. This was because he had underestimated the media’s publicity and looked forward to such a super cosmic battleship. He dreamed that he could own one in the future.
Of course, this was only a joke because Chu Nan knew very well that top-notch cosmic battleships were the most cutting-edge existences in any country in the Milky Way. They were top-notch resources that involved national security and secrets. It was impossible for an individual like him to have them.
Moreover, he was talking about the top-notch battleship of the Noctem Chamber of Commerce. This was the top cosmic battleship in the entire Milky Way, the top cosmic combat strength that almost all countries dreamed of. Not to mention an individual, even if any country wanted to own it, they had to pay a huge price to the Noctem Chamber of Commerce. In the end, whether it could work depended on the evaluation results of the Noctem Chamber of Commerce. It was not something that could be bought with money.
However… Chu Nan did not expect that Elkart did not reject it immediately. Instead, he expressed that he needed to report it to the Chamber of Commerce’s headquarters for discussion.
The result of the negotiation… the headquarters of the Noctem Chamber of Commerce actually agreed! They agreed to give Chu Nan the top-notch enterprise-level cosmic battleships. Moreover, they did not only give one, but three!
Not only that, the Noctem Chamber of Commerce also expressed that in order to let Chu Nan use these three battleships better, they had decided to transfer a series of relevant technical information to him.
Although this technical information did not include the most important power system design, appearance, and most importantly, spatial jump engine technology that only enterprise-level battleships had, and were mainly related to control systems, firepower attacks, and so on, just these three battleships and the accompanying fleet facilities were already priceless.
Moreover, the Noctem Chamber of Commerce had even packed up the energy shield composition technology that was extremely important to cosmic battleships.
It could be said that Chu Nan, who had these three battleships and a full set of supporting equipment, already had extremely powerful cosmic combat strength that even many small countries in the Milky Way were stunned by!
After knowing that his request had actually been agreed by the Noctem Chamber of Commerce, Chu Nan was stunned.
He did not expect that his casual joke would be taken seriously. The Noctem Chamber of Commerce actually treated this as a gift to him.
Even if he was given three cosmic battleships, what could he do? Could it be that he really drove these three enterprise-level battleships around the universe to play?
What a joke!
Not to mention anything else, just the basic maintenance costs of these three battleships were not something he could bear alone.
Fortunately, Elkart reminded him at this moment that these three battleships were a gift to Chu Nan. It was not a problem for him to transfer them to others, but this required a certain evaluation from the Noctem Chamber of Commerce.
Therefore, Chu Nan immediately thought of Dong Fang.
Speaking of individuals, other than the Seres Security Company that this guy was in and could afford these three battleships, it was impossible for anyone to endure it.
However, under Dong Fang’s reminder, he changed his mind and decided to transfer two of them to the Earth Federation Army and only give one to Dong Fang.
Today, he came here to complete the donation ceremony of these three Enterprise cosmic battleships.
Regarding Chu Nan’s transfer goal, the Noctem Chamber of Commerce quickly passed the evaluation and gave an agreement.
Their reply was very fast, and it even made Chu Nan feel that this was actually their goal.
Of course, it was not like the Noctem Chamber of Commerce did not have any requests. Not only did they ask Chu Nan to cooperate more with their research on the teleportation door in the future, but they also had to help them complete the upgrade research of the Energy Shield of the Enterprise battleship.
Regarding this, Elkart did not hide anything from Chu Nan. The reason why the headquarters of the Noctem Chamber of Commerce agreed to give Chu Nan these three battleships was to upgrade his energy shield.
As for the reason… it was because of Chu Nan’s performance in many direct confrontations with the cosmic battleship two years ago.
The Noctem Chamber of Commerce had gathered the data of Chu Nan’s many head-on battles with the battleship. It showed that he had an extremely special ability to target the energy shield of the battleship and could easily destroy the top-notch battleship’s energy shield. Coupled with his super sensitivity to energy changes when studying the teleportation door, they believed that Chu Nan’s research in this aspect would provide great help.
This was also the reason why after they gave these three battleships, they only gave some technical information related to the energy shield, but they did not give any other key technology.
Although Chu Nan had been tricked by the Noctem Chamber of Commerce again, he did not dislike this because not only could the acquisition of these three battleships directly and clearly increase the combat strength of the Earth Federation Army and the Seres Security Company, it would also clearly increase the technical strength of the federation on cosmic battleships to a certain extent.
After all, the Earth Federation was only a small country on the Orion Arm. It was impossible for its technical strength to be compared to a large faction like the Noctem Chamber of Commerce which had dominated the Milky Way for nearly ten thousand years and completely controlled an entire spiral arm. Its technological strength was second to none in the entire Milky Way. Now, the Noctem Chamber of Commerce only needed to reveal a little technology to the Earth Federation, and it was enough to benefit them greatly.
This was the main reason why Marshal Chemekov thanked Chu Nan so seriously.
“This is not just a few ships.” Hearing Chu Nan’s low mutter, Marshal Chemekov smiled, “Most importantly, with this opportunity, our Earth Federation can establish a deeper connection with the Noctem Chamber of Commerce. It’ll be much easier to obtain other benefits from them in the future.”
“Yes.” Dong Fang immediately agreed, “Not to mention anything else, now that the others know that our Seres Security Company has actually been given an enterprise-level battleship of the Noctem Chamber of Commerce, many businesses that I could not discuss in a low voice in the past are now asking those guys to beg me. Ha, just thinking about it makes me feel extremely good!”
It was only in front of Chu Nan, his roommate, that Dong Fang would show such an unruly side.
Looking at the undisguised brilliant smile on his and Marshal Chemekov’s faces, Chu Nan could only sigh in his mind and smile.
“Alright, since you’re so satisfied, what are we waiting for? Let’s begin.”
