Chapter 70: Counseling for Admissions
Guderian coughed, dissolving the embarrassment. He knew that several people present had various backgrounds, and they were not very interested in these things, and maybe only that Susie was the real newcomer.
"We at the Kassel Academy are different from other schools in that our specialization is very special, special enough to specialize in one specialty." Guderian said this, and with his stumbling hair and pretended mysterious expression, he looked like a charlatan.
Lu Mingfei nodded, so special that the graduates were holding guns everywhere, and they liked to monitor and track.
"How special?" Susie, as the only one in the new students who did not know, asked cooperatively.
"Do you know the seminary?" Guderian said mysteriously.
Susie nodded: "The school for seminarians who specialize in learning about God and have not yet become priests and nuns." ”
"That's a good answer, if it's in my class, it will give you extra points." Guderian complimented, making Susie a little embarrassed.
"So," he said, standing up, grabbing the canvas that had been behind him all along, like a giant canvas canvas, and pulling it down, "this is what the Kassel Academy is studying!" ”
It was a painting in which the sky was iron blue mixed with the color of fire, and the only giant tree stood out, its dead branches stretching in all directions, weaving a dense net to support the cracked sky. The wasteland was covered with dry bones, and black beasts were rising from the depths of the pile of bones, their wings hung with skeletons, and after spreading their huge membranous wings, they spat out black flames in the sky.
Lu Mingfei looked at this painting with a complicated expression, from seeing the "Dragon Genealogy", "Dragon and Speech Technique", "Dragon Bloodline", "Dragon Genomics" on the bookshelf of the carriage...... This kind of book, he knew what he meant by the Nidhogg he had seen in Chu Tianjiao's secret room before.
Combined with his previous experience of exploring the Land of Fog and encountering those monsters. He speculated that dragons, such mythical creatures, might be real in this world.
Chu Zihang and Susie were attracted by the content of the painting, and their golden eyes all lit up in unison, resisting the coercion in the painting.
Even Chen Motong and Zero, who were prepared, were struggling to suppress their desire and fear of confrontation, and turned their faces sideways and did not look at the oil painting.
Only Lu Mingfei, who had a complicated complexion, and Guderian, who had seen the painting many times and was already immune to coercion, looked at each other like nothing.
"Niederhogg...... A poisonous dragon that gnaws at the World Tree. So your school crest is the World Tree Yuktrasil? The expression returned to its original state, and Lu Mingfei asked Guderian.
"That's right! However, Lu Mingfei can keep the same status in front of this screen, and it is worthy of being an S-class! I was stunned. Guderian praised Lu Mingfei, who deserved to be his favorite student.
"Nidhogg?" Chu Zihang, who had recovered, muttered the name, his expression seemed to be a little crazy.
"Is that what we're studying?" Susie also recovered and asked in surprise.
Guderian nodded and said, "Dragon Emperor Nidhogg, the ancestor of all dragons and half-bloods. And killing Him and His dragon sons and grandchildren is the ultimate goal of our Kassel! ”
Half-breeds? Slaying dragons? This is the truth hidden by the Kassel Academy? Lu Ming asked with an unchanged expression. "By half-blood, do you mean us?"
"Yes, that's right, you, me, and the Kassel Academy you're about to arrive at are all such people." Guderian nodded and said.
Susie on the side was a little puzzled: "If it's just a painting, it can't explain anything, such a picture doesn't matter if it's on the Internet, it's not that there are no illustrations of various fantasy novels."
"But you can't explain the anomaly when you first saw this painting." Guderian asked back with a smile.
"This ...... Truly. Susie nodded with some distress, she has the three views of a normal person, and her 18 years of cognition made her unable to accept the mythical creature of the dragon for a while.
Chu Zihang was in a similar situation, but it was a little better than Susie, he knew that Kassel Academy was a hidden organization, but he didn't know about the existence of dragons, and Schneider didn't tell him too much about these aspects.
"There are also many students who have such doubts, and the college will naturally come up with more credible evidence." Guderian understood that she could not accept it for a while, "When the train arrives, there will be someone there who will have other convincing evidence ready for you." ”
The train was running rapidly, and although it was still late at night, the people on the train were not sleepy. Lu Mingfei was holding the Latin book called "Solomon's Key" and pretending not to understand it, which was not the one he was familiar with, but it was also a book about dragon alchemy, which allowed him to obtain information about dragons or half-bloods.
His conjecture came true, the golden eyes and the superhuman body were really mixed blood, and the other half of the blood in his body was dragon blood!
Dragons, creatures at the apex of fantasy species, powerful dragons even have powers comparable to those of gods. Lu Mingfei knew a lot of powerful dragons. Fafnir, Vovitegen, Tarask, ....... There are also the knight king with a humanoid dragon heart, the dragon slayer bathed in dragon blood, and the dragon witch who leads the dragon group into battle. Even one of the strongest enemies he had ever faced, Tiamat, the creator god, fought them in the form of a dragon.
Lu Mingfei's understanding of dragons is definitely not low, but this is limited to the world on the Chaldean side, what is the dragon in the world on his side, just after reading these books, he can't make conclusions, not to mention that these books are not complete editions.
And there's another problem, something he's discovered when he's just returned to this world. If he has dragon blood, then why didn't he have golden pupils when he was in Chaldea? And other dragon-related Heroes didn't notice that he had dragon blood.
There are too many questions, and I hope Kassel will have information on this. He rubbed his temples and closed his eyes with a headache, intending to take a nap.
There was nothing to do for a while, and after Chen Motong, who was observing his future classmates, commented on Chu Zihangding's paralysis, his eyes turned to Lu Mingfei, who was secretly distressed.
The boy didn't have that kind of frightened reaction when she saw Nidhogg just now, and thinking of his S-class evaluation, she was a little curious about what he was having a headache. And he was a little defensive when he saw himself and the iceberg girl, which made her even more curious.
It seems that this time I will not be too boring to come to Kassel Academy, but I don't know if he is worthy of the name of this S-class. How does it compare to the "Emperor of Gattuso" in the academy? Thinking of that "emperor", a hint of gloom appeared in the corner of her eyes.
The first rays of sunlight in the morning shone through the giant sequoia forest on Lu Mingfei's eyes, making him open his eyes. After squinting his eyes to adjust to the light, the train also passed through the sea of trees and was now sailing on a lake.
Susie climbed to the windowsill on the other side and looked at the strange scene outside, and Chu Zihang was also attracted by this scene, and looked out of the window with her.
"This lake is called the Fairy Sea, which is the same name as the lake where the fairy of the lake gave King Arthur's broken steel sword in Celtic mythology. It was the Sea of Trees of Vida, named after the god of the forest in Norse mythology, Vader. Guderian smiled and introduced them to these places.
Hearing these familiar places and names, a hint of nostalgia flashed across Lu Mingfei's face, and then he noticed the half-hidden medieval buildings on the mountainside across the lake.
Kassel Academy, arrived.
