Chapter 314: Chapter 314: Su Wan, How Will You Choose?
The team leader from Siren University, Lan Yurou, looked at the monitor screen with some nervousness.
If the kids had chosen the path with the vines.
They would only be half an hour behind the Empire University team.
They could still catch up later.
But, if they chose the left path, which looked very safe.
They... might need to send safety officers to rescue them!
The five members of Siren University’s team, after some hesitation and argument.
Then, under Lan Yurou’s hopeful gaze, they walked towards the left path without vines...
Lan Yurou suddenly stood up and immediately walked out.
Adolf immediately understood what was going on.
He used his brain-computer to notify Li Rui to take people to that location for the rescue.
In fact, sometimes choices are very important.
If a team captain could lead their teammates to avoid various dangers and still obtain bonus points.
That’s the true winner of this competition!
But Siren University’s team had obviously chosen the wrong path.
Adolf touched his almost gone hair and looked at the Empire University team members on the screen.
They had already successfully left the maze.
**
The issue with the Mu Family had been investigated thoroughly.
Moreover, based on Mu Qingfeng’s description and the surveillance data previously obtained near the Bai Family residence.
Gu Jue had successfully retrieved the image of the person in black.
Though the person was well covered and their face could not be seen.
But from their build and the exposed skin, they were finally pinpointed.
Eric said, "Commander, a warrant has now been issued across the entire main star. As soon as he shows up, we’ll lock onto his location. Additionally, I’ve had the related information sent to the other planets. If Lucifer appears on their planets, he will also be locked down immediately."
Gu Jue nodded.
He signed a few documents, looked up, and found that Eric had not yet left.
Gu Jue, "Is there something else?"
Eric pressed his lips together and said, "Boss, Prince Gu has come again, and this time he’s not alone—he’s brought several women with him."
"Kick them out."
"What?"
Gu Jue lifted his gaze, speaking indifferently, "Except for Prince Gu, kick out the other women. If they refuse, arrest them and throw them into the Interstellar Prison."
Eric remembered the delicate and precious noble young ladies.
He felt that the Commander truly had no mercy for women’s charm.
To have them directly kicked out!
After Eric left, Gu Jue took out his brain-computer and contacted the Interstellar Prison.
"How is Gu Weida behaving in the Interstellar Prison?"
"Commander, Gu Weida has been behaving very well inside, abiding by the law, he..."
"He could not possibly be abiding by the law."
The person on the other end paused for a few seconds, amidst some disorder, and after a while, someone else took over.
The person said, "Hello, Commander, I’m Chen Xing, the deputy warden of the Interstellar Prison. Gu Weida had a small conflict with a female prisoner in the prison during rest and out-of-cell time."
Gu Jue, "What’s the female prisoner’s name?"
Chen Xing, "Her name is Su Man, who has previously used the name Su Yurou."
Gu Jue, "No need to separate them, keep an eye on them, and listen to what they’re saying."
Chen Xing clearly hesitated for a moment, then promptly nodded, "Yes, Commander!"
After cutting off the communication, Gu Jue interlaced his fingers and rested them in front of his brow, pausing for a moment before the corner of his mouth lifted.
"White Tiger, connect me to Gu Tao’s line."
"Yes, Master."
As those delicate princesses were thrown out of the military department, Gu Tao’s communicator also began to ring.
Gu Tao hesitated for a moment before answering.
Gu Jue spoke directly, "Prince Gu, I have some bad news. Do you want to hear it?"
Gu Tao, "Commander Gu, please speak."
Gu Jue, "Oh, it’s not really bad news, just a heads-up. Since Gu Weida is so familiar with the Star Thief and they are notoriously brutal, just prepare yourself mentally in case one day he is suddenly killed by Star Thief."
Gu Tao probably didn’t expect Gu Jue to be so direct!
Through the communicator, Gu Jue could hear the sound of him grinding his teeth.
Taking a few deep breaths, Gu Tao finally spoke in a low voice, "My apologies, Commander. Today, my little Meimei was ignorant, and it’s mainly because those princesses all admire you greatly. Such an incident won’t happen again."
"Gu Tao, you’re old. You should really take care of yourself. Be careful or you won’t come to a good end!"
"..."
After cutting off the communication, Gu Jue leaned back in his chair.
White Tiger, "Master, I just heard that teeth-grinding sound. I bet the old Prince’s dentures must be ground to bits by now!"
Gu Jue, "Help me check, how much work is left."
White Tiger, "It’s all been dealt with, only Lucifer hasn’t been caught yet. But we’ve searched twice already, and in our ten districts, there’s no sign of Lucifer."
The electronic eyes of White Tiger immediately widened.
"Master, you can go to see your wife now!"
Gu Jue stood up, fastened his buttons, and then walked outside.
He hesitated between immediately going to the Training Star Base to see his wife and going to his mother-in-law’s house to pick up his son.
In the end, Gu Jue decided to pick up his son first.
**
Suddenly, a clap of thunder sounded in the sky.
Soon after, several bolts of lightning flashed across the sky.
Alex looked up at the sky, blinking, "My God, that thunder and lightning are really frightening."
Su Wan now was not particularly disturbed by the thunder and lightning.
Primarily because there was a kid at home who could produce electricity.
She looked around and then said, "Still, we need to find a place to take shelter from the rain."
Pandora frowned, "Why take shelter? It’s just thunder and rain, there’s no danger."
Sheng An fluttered her wings, flying a bit higher. After a while, she returned.
"The clouds around are very low; it looks like there’s going to be a torrential downpour and possibly flooding."
This time, Alex was on the same side as Pandora.
He said, "It’s just rain, not a big deal. We haven’t seen anyone from Yuanyi University yet. If we take shelter, won’t we fall even further behind them?"
This was the first time Empire University had encountered a disagreement in opinion.
Commander Andrew watched the children through the monitor.
He knew that if it were just Alex, he would eventually follow Su Wan’s decision.
But Pandora wouldn’t.
Pandora had always been opinionated, and she had the strongest combat power.
In such a case, she might indeed choose not to listen to Su Wan’s advice.
At the same time, it wasn’t only the lead teachers and base officers in the main control room who were watching them.
There were also people in charge of the security operation, like Li Rui and others.
Agros, looking through the surveillance camera, frowned and said, "Pandora is still too impulsive."
Li Rui glanced at him and nodded, "Your cousin really doesn’t take after you. However, I think this is also a test for Su Wan."
When you have a team member whose combat power is stronger than yours,
and they don’t follow your orders while on a mission,
As a team leader, what do you do?
Li Rui, watching the screen on the monitor, quietly said, "How Su Wan handles this disagreement will directly affect Empire University’s team final score!"
Because this is the last challenge!
