Chapter 28: Action (3)
Through the gaps in the azure curtains, the morning light was slightly drunk, and the light and shadow in the room danced, and two shadows were reflected on the crimson bookshelf beside them, rhythmically rhythmic with the sound of breathing.
The two cups of coffee on the table were already a little cold, only the aroma of coffee beans filled the heavy air, Lu Mingfei picked up the cup and took a sip, a little bitter, not only the taste of coffee, but also a heartfelt, indescribable feeling.
Susie's story was a little far away, far away when he himself was a carefree student, but it was also very close, and it made Lu Mingfei breathless.
For the first time, he knew that Chu Zihang had found the college by himself and had taken the initiative to ask for admission.
It was also the first time he knew what Chu Zihang had done in order to gain power, and his senior brother's target was Odin's kind of enemy who could no longer be called the Dragon King, so he needed strength, and he opened the forbidden land of the Lionheart Society, reproduced the technique of Violent Blood from the trivial information of one of the forbidden books, and improved it.
Less retention of reason, greater release of the lion within oneself.
Chu Zihang is also well aware of the danger of this technology, after he memorized how to use it, he burned the technology that he had worked so hard to restore again, and even threw those taboo ancient books in the Lionheart Society into the fireplace at the expense of violating the school rules.
A gust of wind blew outside, the leaves rustled, and the two men in the room were silent for a long time after the story was told.
"Looks like he's already in a deep trap." Lu Mingfei said softly: "It's like making a wish to the devil with your life to gain power." ”
"I'm telling you all of this because I believe you have a way to save Chu Zihang." Susie stared into Lu Mingfei's eyes.
"I promise to do my best." Lu Mingfei nodded: "However, then again, I hope to get the information of the violent blood, so that I can figure out if there is any way to save him." ”
"The Lionheart Society's classics have been burned by Chu Zihang." Susie shook her head: "Besides, I don't think the chairman will lend you the information on the Storm Blood Technique, no matter what conditions you use, Chu Zihang is such a person, he would rather die than drag down innocent people." ”
"I'm going to help him." Lu Mingfei looked directly into Susie's eyes.
"I know you're going to help him, but he doesn't."
"But you know don't you?" Lu Mingfei smiled softly.
"I know what's the use? If you have the ability, you go tell him, do you believe it or not, Chu Zihang will only nod politely and say thank you when he hears what you say, but he doesn't need anyone's help? Susie stuck out her tongue.
"Senior sister, do you know what I see in your eyes?" Lu Mingfei continued to smile.
"What?"
"You are hesitating, senior sister, I can guarantee that even if Chu Zihang completely degenerates into Deadpool one day, you may not do it."
“……”
"Senior sister, you wanted to try your best to understand Chu Zihang from the beginning, as his deputy, it is impossible for you not to be careful."
"What do you mean?" Susie became alert.
"You should have the Violent Blood Technology in your hand, at least it's also relevant information, rubbing, or something." Lu Mingfei sighed: "Senior sister, those things are very dangerous, I suggest you don't touch them because you want to save Chu Zihang." ”
"You're lying to me?" Susie frowned.
"I'm not lying to you, I'm just talking about my own speculation. I wasn't really interested in those things, I just wanted to see if I could find some clues from them, and if his excavator said anything, but there should be no hope. ”
Lu Mingfei laughed silently, got up and packed up a few books on the table: "But, then again, Senior Sister Susie, this is what I want to say to you as a junior, you may not be able to grasp that thing, don't think about saving Chu Zihang and trapping yourself into it, Senior Brother, his bloodline is much higher than yours, and he is also better than you can resist, Senior Brother shouldn't want him to execute you who have fallen into Deadpool one day." ”
When the words landed, Lu Mingfei took the book in his hand and walked towards the door.
"You're smart."
Seeing the boy's figure paused at the door, Susie's tense face relaxed, and she leaned back in her chair: "I can give you something, but this is a deal, not a cooperation." ”
"What do you want?" Lu Ming didn't look back.
"Within half a year, tell me your method."
"Half a year is too short." Lu Mingfei pondered for a moment: "At least a year." ”
"Okay, then tell me how to do it within a year." Susie nodded.
"What if I don't?" Lu Mingfei smiled.
"Then let's go to hell together, and we can have a companion." Susie spread her hands helplessly.
"Hell? I have a friend there who calls himself the devil. Lu Mingfei shook his head with a smile and pushed open the door of the training room: "The deal is established." ”
"I'll get it to you as soon as I can."
Without getting an answer, Susie watched Lu Mingfei go away, and smiled self-deprecatingly:
"Are you willing to try such nonsense now?"
……
"All attention, all attention, the first probe is about to begin.
Mission site commander Mance. Rundstedt is in place and requests approval for action. In the middle of the hills, the little old man looked solemn, holding the walkie-talkie, and his words were transmitted over the radio to the other side of the ocean.
"Operation approval, this is the headquarters, good luck to you." In the executive department of the Kassel Academy, Schneider looked at the big screen, inserted his ID card into the card slot, and gave instructions.
"Norma will mobilize all resources to ensure the success of the mission." In the channel, a female voice without a trace of emotion sounded, Norma is like this, maybe on weekdays she will be as naughty as a little girl to joke with you, and will sing you a birthday song on your birthday, but when performing tasks, it is as if she has changed a person, doing things neatly, like a very capable secretary.
"Let's go."
With Mance's order, the huge crane began to rumble, and two figures in black tights hung from the steel hook, and in the first stage they had to enter the bottom through a cave with an angle of nearly eighty degrees, according to the calculations of the surveyors, the distance was about two hundred meters, and according to the speed of the two men and the machine, it would take about seven to eight minutes.
The method of using the hoisting machine similar to the rappelling of the rock wall was decided after many discussions by the people in the executive department, Ye Sheng and Jiude Aki's bloodlines are quite excellent, with their ability, even if they climb the rock with their bare hands, it is not an exaggeration.
But it was extremely physically demanding, and no one could guarantee that there would be no danger on the way down, and since the Greenland incident, Rector Angers and the head of the Executive Department, Schneider, have demanded 'no urgency, no province, and no greed' as the basic requirements for the three tasks.
As the name suggests, if you are not in a hurry, you are not in a hurry to act, and before you get enough information, as long as the things below are not to the point of destroying the world, then there is still a cup of effort. No, if you have to spend money on the task, then don't save it, Angers doesn't mind giving the school board a few hundred million dollars more every year. In the end, if you are not greedy, you will not be greedy for meritorious service, and you can gain something.
That's why the guys in the executive department will assemble a hoister in the middle of the mountains, which is more reliable than having a few people pull the rope, although it can cost to buy another one or even several hoisters.
Anyway, it's not their money, for the old guys in the school board, the purpose of the executive department has always been not to spend in vain, and even the idea of their family's descendants entering the executive department will be corrected.
The steel wires on the runner were released in circles, and the people in black who had nothing to do surrounded the hole, and some even picked up red light binoculars to look inside, but the result was still the same, except for the two small dots that slowly descended, there was nothing to see.
Mance and One, along with a few other people, shut up all but Mance for fear of interfering with the two men in the cave.
"Ye Sheng, what's the situation?"
"Hmm...... Nothing too weird, but, Professor, I always felt that this wasn't an ordinary cave. The man with the searchlight on his head said in a deep voice, I don't know how many times they have gone on a mission together, and they have also seen the moment of life and death crisis, and they are not surprised.
Ye Sheng and Jiu De Aki are classmates in the academy, and they entered the executive department at the same time, and they have been working together for five years, the best combination under Mance, and they have produced 26 underwater cooperative operations and countless exploration missions without failure.
But the thought that the place to be detected was related to the noble primordial species, even Mance had to be nervous.
"How?"
"It's noticeably wetter now than it was before, and I can feel a warm breeze blowing through."
"Heater?" Mance stretched out his palm and felt the air circulation around him, it had just rained, the air was still very humid, the breeze was blowing, and there was a slight chill, which definitely could not be called a warm wind.
"It can't be the breath exhaled from the nostrils of the Dragon King." A girl's voice came from the channel, and Aki Aki was trying to adjust the atmosphere.
She knew the importance of this mission, and it could be seen from the solemn faces of everyone
"No, it won't." Ye Sheng looked at the detector on his chest: "Such a big guy, the detector will definitely capture his signal, but now the life signal found by the detector is only you and me." ”
"There won't be a dragon king inside, that's the inference of the headmaster and the night watch, and they're confident." Mance interrupted the exchange between his students: "Slow down a bit, it's still early, we're not in a hurry." ”
"Yes." Aki immediately responded.
"Adjust the rope, what's the use of just talking about it, if you continue like this, the rope will strangle you." Ye Sheng's voice fluctuated slightly.
"Will it strangle me?"
"I don't know if you're going to lose weight, but I know you're probably going to be recorded in the Execution Department's Error Demo Manual, glorious for the rest of your life." Ye Sheng sighed: "How can I have such a stupid team member as you." ”
"Am I stupid? ……”
……
Hearing the conversation between the boys and girls in the channel, Mance suddenly felt a little tired, he looked at the few white clouds drifting in the sky, the soles of his shoes stepped on the soft and wet earth, and he thought for a long time, and finally bent down to pick up an unknown piece of weed, put it in his mouth and chewed it.
The staff around were busy, the man with glasses was holding the baffle and calculating the data, listening to the channel with a nervous face, but the old man was sitting on the grass, feeling the breeze blowing, and exhaled softly.
"Why, there's always a sense of unease?"
……
The attic of the night watch
"It's really strange that you would take the initiative to find me."
Ange pushed open the door, carefully jumped over the garbage bags, and finally sat down in his chair, looking at the vice-principal on the other side, who was intently studying the materials in hand.
"No way, I can only tell you these things, and only a madman like you will believe me."
"About what? Let's start with it, if it was a girl you soaked in when you were a western cowboy, then I don't believe it very much, just symbolically listen to your bragging. ”
"It's about the Lord of Bronze and Fire." The vice-principal took off his glasses, and the sloppy and bury pedant became the original old rascal again: "Isn't this more interesting to you than a woman?" ”
"Go on." Ann warmed up straight, and his eyes were much sharper.
"On the Ice Sea Bronze Pillar, we found the records of the two Bronze and Fire Kings, right?"
"Norton and Constantine." Ange mentions those two names.
"We've always believed that Norse mythology is actually a portrayal of dragons, right?" The vice-chancellor turned around and threw a hardcover book into Ange's hand, who flipped through it:
"Yes, but what does that have to do with you giving me a children's book?"
"It was a birthday present I prepared for my son at the time, but I didn't expect him to ask for it." The vice principal smiled awkwardly and quickly changed the subject:
"But in Norse mythology, there are no names of Norton and Constantine."
"We think it's a ...... in translation"
"The gods of Norse mythology have only one Loki, who holds the fire, and even if the name is mistranslated, it can't be like this." The Vice Chancellor shook his head.
"That'...... Is it because they require a duel? Ange frowned: "The dragon clan advocates force, and the winner is the true king of bronze and fire?" ”
"Then why would the Black King Nidhogg allow them to write an oath together?"
“……”
Ange stopped talking, he knew that his old friend was not a very patient person.
"The Lord of Bronze and Fire is able to use the Spirit of Speech. Candle Dragon, that's the limit of metal and high temperatures. The vice principal sighed faintly: "But he can't use a complete candle dragon every time he appears, and Li Xiong at that time was forced to the end of the mountain by Liu Xiu, and he only burned a palace." ”
"You mean, he wasn't fully formed at the time?" Ange was thoughtful.
The vice-principal's face was solemn, and he made his final judgment: "Norton and Constantine are twins, and only when they are one can they be called the King of Bronze and Fire." As stated in the Jade Record, they became one and became the scepter of God. ”
Leaning back in his chair, Ange looked at the broken porcelain on the ground after listening to the conclusion, not knowing what he was thinking.
"This is obviously an epoch-making conclusion, if the group of guys in the Senate knew about it, they would go back and thoroughly investigate all the ancient books to find clues, but Ange, why do you seem... Not so surprised? ”
"Maybe you don't believe it, but I expected this outcome." Ange sighed.
"Why are you ......?" the night watchman's eyes widened, and he had studied it for several nights before he came to a conclusion.
"I have something to do, so I'll go first." Ange shook his head and walked straight out the door.
……
New York
The man with a decadent look walked into the pharmacy and asked the doctor for a box of sleeping pills.
He hadn't slept well since last night, and whenever he fell asleep, the little boy's words would come to his ears.
"Brother, I'll be back to you soon."
"Wait for me, brother, this time, I won't leave you again."
In a trance, the man saw Zhang's panicked but smiling immature face passing in front of him, he was sure that he had never seen the boy, but he was vaguely telling him in his heart that they knew each other and knew each other very well.
"Damn, it looks like I'm entangled in dirt, and I can't take on the task for a while."
