The Seventh Base-Chapter 656 - 67: The Biggest Winner

Chapter 656 -67: The Biggest Winner

At the Lucas Star Golden Palace, King Richard sat at his desk, watching a “speech” by Elizabeth on the screen.

There were other people in the office, all quietly watching.

At that moment, a knock on the door was heard. King Richard turned off the screen as a straight figure walked in, bowed, and said, “Your Majesty.”

“The Kingdom of Baloma has sent a letter, demanding severe punishment for those who attacked Prince Nilo, or else they will reconsider our cooperation agreement,” said the Minister of Defense.

“These barbarians still haven’t changed,” King Richard remarked.

“Your Majesty, about Princess Elizabeth…” The Minister of Defense started to say but then stopped.

“Take care of your own affairs. I do not want incidents that jeopardize the government’s credibility to happen again. You should thank Elizabeth this time. Any other issues?” King Richard’s gaze suddenly became stern. These inept people, incapable of handling matters, now wanted to shift the blame onto Elizabeth?

The Minister of Defense bowed his head and said, “Your Majesty, what should we do next?”

“Send their prince back to Baloma. If they want to cancel the cooperation, that’s fine. We will find other partners. Let them think it over themselves. Someone at Lucas University must also take responsibility,” King Richard declared.

“Yes,” the minister bowed and then left the office.

King Richard turned around, looking outside.

Remembering the conversation with Elizabeth the day before, King Richard realized that his daughter had “grown up” and was no longer the girl she used to be.

King Richard had always doted on Elizabeth because she was young and still seemed like a child to him, but this incident made him realize that Elizabeth had matured.

That’s good, Charlie needs the pressure as well.

……

Very soon, the Lucas Star Federation Government dispatched an investigative team to Lucas University for a thorough investigation following the incident.

Public opinion exploded, and the issue escalated to a point where not even Lucas University could contain it anymore.

Various media outlets reported on the incident and followed it closely, making Lucas University unusually lively for a time.

As the main figure in this incident, Prince Nilo of the Kingdom of Baloma lay in a hospital bed, still affected by the incident despite a Deadpool blocking the lethal strike.

Nilo was severely injured, with damaged organs, needing time to heal.

The students of Lucas University eagerly awaited the investigation results and the final outcome.

Hopefully, the investigative team wouldn’t be biased towards Nilo this time?

Otherwise, public resentment would boil over, likely leading to a loss of public trust.

Xu Mo remained calm, staying in the Library. From the moment Elizabeth gave the interview, the outcome was sealed; even if the research continued, it could not suppress this incident.

He had studied the major planets in the library, including some knowledge of Lucas Star. The likely outcome could be Nilo’s repatriation and finding a scapegoat from Lucas University. After all, Lucas Star couldn’t seriously harm Nilo, which would trigger a severe diplomatic incident, and Baloma wouldn’t let it go.

As Xu Mo expected, a few days later, the investigative team announced that Nilo was invited to Lucas University but had acted arrogantly and viciously during his time at school, causing Wal to be seriously injured. Lucas University would expel Nilo. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

Professor Luke, Wal’s father, also committed a criminal act that led to Nilo’s severe injuries. Lucas University would also dismiss Professor Luke.

Since Professor Luke and Nilo both had illegal actions, it was decided not to prosecute either, and Nilo would be repatriated to the Kingdom of Baloma.

After the news was released, although it wasn’t the best outcome, no faults could be found.

That day, Professor Luke had attempted to fatally attack Nilo, resulting in Nilo’s severe injuries. If Nilo’s criminal actions were pursued, Professor Luke could not escape blame either.

Nilo’s expulsion and repatriation to the Kingdom of Baloma was considered a decent resolution, and moreover, Professor Luke wouldn’t have to face prison.

However, it remained unknown how Nilo’s injuries were; ideally, they would be crippling.

Lucas University announced that a press conference would be held in the central square. That day, the students of Lucas University crowded the central square, and many reporters from outside also came, all pushing towards the front.

Some were maintaining order, and one by one, figures appeared on the steps above.

“Elizabeth.” At that moment, many students saw Elizabeth; she appeared at the front, invited by the school.

Elizabeth’s appearance immediately attracted a lot of attention.

This incident made everyone see Elizabeth in a new light.

During the recent period, Nan Xiangyi’s admission had caused a great sensation. Nan Xiangyi, also highly attractive and with the aura of a princess, became extremely popular and the most dazzling star at Lucas University. Later, Zero defeated Nan Xiangyi, which also garnered immense attention and gradually shifted focus from last year’s incoming student, the Princess of Lucas Star, Elizabeth.

But after this incident, Elizabeth once again stood at the center stage. The princess of Lucas Star shone even brighter, and her popularity seemed unshakeable now.

When the students of Lucas University looked at her, they did so with admiration in their eyes.
