Chapter 1782 Your Majesty, please calm down.

When it came to serious matters, Inas's queenly majesty naturally shone through.

Then, she looked into Gu Chen's eyes and said, "Regarding this matter, Mr. Gu Chen, is there anything you need to discuss with us?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Chen said, "If I could help you eliminate this weakness, all you need to do is provide some blood samples. What does Your Majesty think?"

The serious expression on Inas's face was almost instantly replaced by shock.

She could hardly believe what she was hearing.

Therefore, she cautiously confirmed, "Eliminate...weaknesses? Mr. Gu Chen, are you serious?"

Gu Chen nodded, but then added, "It's true, but it's only a possibility, and there's no guarantee that it will succeed."

The scientific research capabilities of the Vaylud aliens are undoubtedly impressive, but Gu Chen couldn't guarantee anything about scientific research. After all, the genocide crisis that the Vaylud aliens faced before had only been alleviated, not completely resolved.

However, even though Gu Chen did not guarantee success, Inas was already very excited.

She took a large step forward, almost pressing herself against Gu Chen, and looked at him with burning eyes, saying, "Mr. Gu Chen, if you can really help us eliminate this weakness, then you will be the benefactor of our entire underground kingdom!"

Gu Chen quickly took a step back. Inas's sudden approach made him able to clearly feel her aura.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. Whether it will succeed is still uncertain."

After distancing himself from Inas, Gu Chen quickly spoke up.

However, the next second, Inas boldly grabbed Gu Chen's hands and said excitedly and urgently, "No, I can hardly calm down right now."

“Mr. Gu Chen, you may not know this, but a long time ago, our underground kingdom had specifically studied how to get rid of our weakness of fearing sunlight.”

"However, despite generations of research and a huge amount of money spent by the underground kingdom, they have still not been able to solve this defect rooted in our genes. In the end, they had to announce the cessation of research in this area and instead begin to study how to create equipment that would allow us to walk on the surface world."

"Unfortunately, subsequent research progress was not ideal. Due to limitations in materials, even if we could block sunlight, we could not block the heat radiation from sunlight."

"That's why we developed a satellite capable of artificially creating polar nights."

"If Mr. Gu Chen can help us solve this problem, it will be a historic moment for our underground kingdom."

"And you will gain unparalleled prestige and be able to directly become the new king of our underground kingdom."

Gu Chen quickly pulled his hand away from Inas's grasp and said repeatedly, "No, no, no, Your Majesty, I do not wish to be the king of your underground kingdom."

Inas, however, persisted, asking, "Why?"

“Mr. Gu Chen, I understand your thoughts and vision for the future, and I know what kind of great thing you want to do.”

"If you can become the king of the underground kingdom, it will greatly help your lofty ideals and allow you to see the future you hope to see sooner."

“If you are worried about my feelings, you don’t need to worry at all. As your queen, I will always be by your side to support you in everything you do.”

This is already considered an open and blatant confession.

This development was completely beyond Gu Chen's expectations, but it also relieved him.

Now that Inas has made this matter clear, it will be easier to deal with the situation from here on out.

“Your Majesty, I am honored to have your favor, but I am sorry that I cannot reciprocate your feelings for me.”

Gu Chen took a step back, distancing himself from Inas once again, and explicitly refused.

"Eh?"

Ina was stunned for a moment, an expression of disbelief appearing on her face, followed by a somewhat fearful tone as she said, "Where is it from..."

"It's not your fault, Your Majesty, please don't think that way."

Before Inas could finish speaking, Gu Chen immediately interrupted her and continued, "In my eyes, Your Majesty, you are absolutely the best choice for a partner."

"But I regret to inform you that I have devoted all my energy to my career, so I can only apologize for my feelings regarding this matter."

"So there's no need to bring up your suggestions again, I'm sorry."

After hearing Gu Chen's words, Inas froze on the spot.

Then, under Gu Chen's gaze, her eyes immediately turned red.

Queen Inas was about to burst into tears like a heartbroken little girl, just like Izumi Moriyama had done before, but Inas took a deep breath and controlled her emotions, forcibly suppressing the emotions welling up in her eyes.

"I'm very sorry, I lost my composure, Mr. Gu Chen."

After managing to adjust her posture, Inas bowed slightly to Gu Chen.

"No, I also have my own problems."

"Your Majesty, let's talk about your weaknesses instead."

Gu Chen shook his head, then quickly changed the subject back on track.

"Regarding this, I can provide you with all the research data on this topic from the underground kingdom. I hope you can really solve this problem that has plagued us for thousands of years."

Inas was unambiguous on this issue and gave Gu Chen her full support.

This is a form of trust, because if research into one's own weaknesses is leaked, it could very likely lead to targeted attacks.

For example, creating bacteria or viruses specifically targeting underground humans.

In this way, without a single sword or gun, the underground kingdom will be destroyed without a trace, and the mastermind behind all this will effortlessly take over the entire underground world.

Gu Chen knew this too, so when he heard that Inas was going to hand over such important information to him without hesitation, his expression immediately became solemn.

Then, Gu Chen spoke, solemnly promising Inas, "Your Majesty, I hereby promise you with my life that this information will absolutely not fall into the hands of anyone with ulterior motives."

Inas's trust was so heavy that Gu Chen had to treat it with the utmost seriousness.

Inas nodded, her gaze fixed on Gu Chen's face, and said, "I believe you, Mr. Gu Chen."
