Master Of Martial Arts Has An Advanced Optical Brain Chapter 171 - I Knew You From Long Ago

Chapter 171: I Knew You From Long Ago

Not long after, the call was picked up.

A man with short brown hair and a square face who looked dignified without being angry appeared on the virtual screen. He looked to be middle-aged and was at least 20 to 30 years younger than Xio.

When he saw this face, Chu Nan could not help but stand up.

“Greetings, Lord… Marshal!”

This person was one of the eleven remaining Star-Grade Martial Artists of the Earth Federation, one of the three giants of the federation, the supreme commander-in-chief of the Federation Army, Marshal Chemekov!

Xio looked at the slightly nervous Chu Nan in amus.e.m.e.nt and laughed. He raised his hand and waved at Marshal Chemekov on the virtual screen.

“Ha, Chemekov, I haven’t seen you in a long time. You seem to be doing well.”

Beside him, Trina leaned over and revealed a sweet smile.

“h.e.l.lo, Grandpa Chemekov. I’m Trina. Do you still remember me?”

On the virtual screen, Marshal Chemekov nodded first. His expression did not change, but he sneered, “I’m doing pretty well, but you don’t look good. I heard you’ve been drinking too much recently and are about to die?”

After saying that, he turned to look at Trina, and the expression on his face instantly turned into a warm smile.

“Heh, Trina, of course I remember you. The last time I saw you, you were only a kid who had just learned to walk. When you come to Earth to play, let me see you again.”

“Alright, Grandpa Chemekov, it’s settled then.”

“Yes.”

Marshal Chemekov smiled and agreed. Then, he nodded at Chu Nan and turned to the only person standing.

“You’re Chu Nan, right? I know you.”

Chu Nan was stunned.

“You… you know me?”

Then, he reacted.

“Oh, did Old Master Xio mention me to you?”

“Old Master?” Marshal Chemekov glanced at Xio and chuckled. Then, he looked at Chu Nan again and shook his head seriously, “No, I already knew about you before Xio mentioned you to me.”

“Because of the West Cloud Planet’s martial arts compet.i.tion?”

“No, earlier than that.”

“Even earlier?”

Chu Nan was puzzled.

He had only been slightly famous in the federation because of the West Cloud Planet’s martial arts compet.i.tion. Previously, he had always been an unknown ordinary martial artist. He was inconspicuous in a crowd.

/ .

On the other hand, Marshal Chemekov was the top figure in the federation. How did he know him?

“To be precise, it was not long ago. It was only a few days earlier.” Seeing the confusion on Chu Nan’s face, Marshal Chemekov explained, “Three days before the official start of the West Cloud Planet’s martial arts compet.i.tion, I had a conversation with Mu Yutong. He mentioned you in that conversation.”

Chu Nan was even more surprised.

The conversation between the two top figures of the federation, Mu Yutong and Marshal Chemekov, was so important that Mu Yutong actually specially mentioned him. It could be seen how deep the impression Chu Nan had left on him was. It was no wonder that he specially sent his eldest disciple to make that promise to him.

However, when he thought of the future development, Chu Nan could only smile bitterly in his heart.

Perhaps he felt that he would be limited by the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate in the end and would be unable to become a powerful martial artist in the future, so he did not have much value in the eyes of a Star-Grade Martial Artist like Mu Yutong, which was why he was not given more opportunities.

When he thought of this, Chu Nan’s mood immediately calmed down when he looked at Marshal Chemekov.

In the end, in the eyes of these top figures, he was only a negligible n.o.body.

It was obvious that Marshal Chemekov was willing to speak to him because of Old Master Xio.

As for whether he was willing to spend the effort to help him…

If he was willing, that was naturally good. If not, there was no need to ask for too much.

He smiled at Marshal Chemekov and asked, “I wonder how Supremacy Mu Yutong mentioned me?”

Chu Nan’s psychological change only lasted for a moment. His expression only flickered twice.

However, after saying that, Marshal Chemekov kept staring at Chu Nan’s face seriously and took in the change in his expression.

At this moment, when he heard him ask about Mu Yutong’s evaluation of him, Marshal Chemekov narrowed his eyes slightly and his expression became a little strange.

“At that time, he sighed to me. If he had met you ten years earlier, he would have been confident in nurturing the next Star-Grade Martial Artist for the federation.”

“But it’s obvious that I’m already ten years late, right?” Chu Nan shrugged.

Hearing this, Trina suddenly raised her head to look at Chu Nan. There was actually a melancholy on her clearly childish face that could not be understood at her age.

She suddenly turned around and said to Marshal Chemekov, “Grandpa Chemekov, you must help Brother Chu Nan! Okay?”

Marshal Chemekov and Chu Nan looked at Trina in surprise.

The Marshal was only ordinary surprised, but Chu Nan could not understand at all.

This was clearly the first time he had seen Trina, and it was even the first time he had heard this name. Why did Xio say that Trina was also looking forward to his arrival and had specially spoken to him just now? Now, she was even pleading for him in front of everyone?

Could she be his fan like the Anduin who had come to West Cloud City’s hospital to visit him?

Immediately after, he still felt a trace of anxiety.

The reason why he came here today was to contact Marshal Chemekov in advance and obtain his help.

Although Chu Nan had already made up his mind and felt that it was normal for Marshal Chemekov to not help him, he still hoped to obtain special guidance from this top figure.

“I’ll definitely help those who are worth it.” Marshal Chemekov did not directly answer Trina. Instead, he turned to look at Chu Nan and asked with a serious expression, “Chu Nan, do you want to break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate?”

Chu Nan nodded without hesitation. “Of course!”

“Then, do you think Mu Yutong and Norman made the correct judgment of you?”

“This…” Chu Nan pondered for a moment and shook his head before nodding, “I’m very unwilling to believe the judgment of these two Star-Grade Martial Artists. However, I know very well that what they say is definitely very correct.”

“Then do you still want to break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate?” Marshal Chemekov asked again.

“Of course! Why not?” Chu Nan looked straight into Marshal Chemekov’s eyes and replied with abnormal certainty, “Even if the two Star-Grade Martial Artists think it’s impossible for me to break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate, I’ll still give it a try. Moreover, they only said that it’s almost impossible, which means that I still have a chance to break through. In that case, why should I give up?”

“Very good.” Marshal Chemekov nodded. “If you give up on yourself, no one can help you. However, since you haven’t given up… you can come see me when you come to Earth.”

With that said, he turned around and nodded at Xio and the other two before closing the communication.

Chu Nan blankly looked at the darkened virtual screen for a while before lightly patting Trina’s shoulder in confusion.

“Trina, come, pinch me and see if I’m dreaming?”

Trina looked up at Chu Nan and pursed her lips to reveal a sinister smile. Then, she stretched out her hand and pinched his arm.

“Ouch!”

The person who cried out in pain was not Chu Nan, but Trina who pinched him.

This was because Chu Nan’s body had already tempered to an extremely tough level. Ordinary cold weapons could not cause any damage, let alone a girl like Trina.

With this force, she was shocked into pain by the recoil from Chu Nan’s muscles.

Seeing Trina frown and blow at her small hand with all her might, and then looking at Chu Nan’s fl.u.s.tered apology, Madonna could not help but chuckle softly. However, Xio laughed without any reservations.
