"After all these years, it seems that someone has finally passed its test."

In the light and shadow, the boy dressed in white smiled softly, the years did not show a trace on his cheeks, and there was a childishness in his skin.

However, Lu Mingfei would not treat him as an ordinary child because of his appearance.

Because more than ten hours ago, I also saw the scene of this guy and his brother being coquettish.

One of the first dragons, the noble King of Bronze and Fire, Constantine.

Although, if you look closely, there is still a big difference between the little boy in front of you and the memory of that time.

"Don't be afraid, just call me Konstantin, although I don't know if I can count myself as Konstantin." The boy looked at Lu Mingfei's vigilant expression and shook his head: "This is only a small part of my soul here, it can communicate with you for a quarter of an hour, and then it will disappear, in fact, I just want to see who can get the gift I left behind." ”

"'I wonder if it can be counted'?" Lu Mingfei frowned.

"To be precise, I am the sacrifice of Constantine, its food, and after being devoured, my human side is preserved." The boy explained, "There was originally only one King of Bronze and Fire, but his father split his soul in two to become Constantine and Norton for the sake of balance. One part holds most of the power, the other most of the soul, so that they can't pose a threat to the one on the throne. ”

"Emperor's art? Nidhogg also seems to be a heartless person, so cruel to the children he has made with his own hands. Lu Mingfei sighed.

"This is something engraved in Konstantin's memory, whether it is true or not, I don't know. However, if it is true, I would like to thank him. The boy's eyes lit up: "If it were the complete King of Bronze and Fire, my humanity would not have survived at all." ”

"So, why did you leave this thing behind?" Lu Mingfei asked calmly with the little knife, since the other party showed that there was no malicious intent, he didn't bother to cover it up, besides, the opposite side was obviously not a complete dragon king, if it really fought, he was sure to get out.

"I just want to see how far you can steal the power of the dragons."

"Let's see how far we hybrids can go." Lu Mingfei raised his eyebrows: "So what about your conclusion." ”

"Now you should be able to kill enemies of my level. But it's not enough. The boy looked a little helpless, raised his head, and looked at the sky: "If it were a god, you wouldn't have any room to fight back." ”

"What is God? Black King? Lu Mingfei asked.

"The Black King has long since died, at the hands of God, and we ants will have the ultimate retribution because of our calculations against God. That's the second reason I left this mass of metal behind. ”

"What?"

"When you see me, please kill me with it, this is a sacred object that I have secretly refined, and if you use it as a weapon, it can cause us harm." The boy's white fingers ran across his neck: "Just split it like this, before I merge with my brother and become a true king of bronze and fire." ”

"To be honest, it's a bit tricky." Lu Mingfei scratched his scalp.

"Aren't you here to find the weapons we've forged?" The boy was puzzled and pointed to the room just now, "The same is true of those people, but their bloodline can't even pass the first level test, so the living spirits trapped them there. ”

"It's a hassle to say, but why would I want to kill yourself?" Lu Mingfei still didn't understand what the boy's purpose was.

"Because there is no point in living like this, it is more comfortable to be killed by humans who steal power than to be strangled by the vengeful god one day." The boy smiled: "But this is my idea, it doesn't mean that Konstantin will stretch his neck for you to cut, in reality, I can't resist his suppression at all." ”

"What is God?"

"All I can tell you is fate. Talking too much will bring you misfortune. ”

“......”

Lu Mingfei looked at the small knife in his hand, thought for a moment, and nodded: "For the sake of giving me a good knife, I can do my best." ”

"That's good."

The two fell silent and looked at each other for a long time.

"Really." The boy muttered.

"What is it like?"

"Your eyes are a little similar to those of an old man of mine, but maybe it's because I haven't seen anyone for too long, so I'm just kidding." The boy smiled dumbly: "I thought I was going to explain to you how to use it in detail, but I didn't expect you to have already cast it." “

"It's just a coincidence." Lu Ming is not modest.

"There's still a lot of time left, and it's boring for you and me to stand here, why don't you listen to me tell you the story here?" 'Konstantin' seemed to have some interest: "Although I was devoured after I built here, many of the original memories are not clear, and I can only deduce some things based on clues. ”

"Do you mean, you've been here for so many years?" Lu Mingfei asked softly.

"Of course, I can't quite say it's myself, and these creatures, although they can't speak, I can feel what they're thinking." The boy's smile grew brighter and brighter, like the flower he had watered: "The living beings who let you pass are saying that blood is delicious, and the living beings on the 'food road' seem to be saying... Well... What husk? Spicy eyes? ”

"That's really spicy." Lu Mingfei instantly understood what he was talking about, and nodded in agreement: "However, what does the food path mean?" ”

"It's where the food comes in, Konstantin and Norton occasionally mint here for a long time, and the food will be brought in from that road."

"Tsk, do you eat living people?"

"It's usually a pig or a cow, and it will automatically fade and burn through that alchemy matrix, and if you say it, you can't tell you, I really don't know what will change, but it shouldn't be able to die."

"This door in the middle is the exit?"

"Yes, to the outside, they often go out through here to ventilate, and I put my soul here precisely to see you one last time before you leave."

"And what about the last door?" Lu Mingfei pointed to the closed bronze door: "What monster is hidden behind the door?" ”

"Where the alchemy matrix plays its role, but even if you go in, it's fine, the purpose they originally set up was actually to let the intruders die, and those pure-blooded dragons are the objects of action."

Lu Mingfei nodded, indicating that he had been listening, and the boy became more and more excited when he saw this scene, just like an old friend who had not seen him for many years shared what he had seen and heard about traveling around the world over the years.

"I'm sorry to have you been with me for so long for no reason." The boy finished saying everything he wanted to say, and when he saw Lu Mingfei's expression, he smiled embarrassedly: "I haven't spoken to anyone for many years since Norton took my brother's soul away. ”

"It's okay, sometimes I have a lot of things I want to talk about, but I can't find anyone to talk to." Lu Mingfei looked at the little boy next to him and looked at his appearance: "By the way, what did your brother and Norton do when they went out?" ”

"It looks like we're going to war." The boy touched his chin: "They wanted to establish a new territory in the local area, but Norton put Konstantin somewhere and went out on his own." Haven't come back yet. ”

Lu Mingfei's heart suddenly trembled: "What is your brother's name, do you know?" ”

"Li Xiong, it's a very rustic name, I persuaded him to change it, but he said that he was a homeless person, and his identity and name didn't matter." The corners of the boy's mouth still had a faint smile.

"Oh." Lu Mingfei lowered his head.

"After all these years, I don't know if my brother's body is dead or alive, and now Norton has devoured someone else. I also thought about my brothers being reunited, but that was too unlikely. The little boy smiled wryly: "Actually, after staying here for so long, I think it would be better to die." ”

The figure in the boy's light and shadow slowly dimmed, and he himself seemed to realize this, and looked up at Lu Mingfei, who was silent:

"Goodbye, I hope what I left behind will help you."

"Thank you." Lu Mingfei hesitated for a moment.

"Don't forget the promise with me that the next time you see me, you will definitely kill me." The boy's figure slowly disappeared, leaving only the last sentence echoing above the huge altar:

"Then I'm relieved."

The luster spread across the blade and met Lu Mingfei's eyes, and the light flowing sound of mercury reached his ears, and his thoughts hit like a wave, making his heart unable to calm down.

Looking at the sky and thinking for a long time, he looked at the few people who were still in a coma, with a sad face.

"I hope you're not as fat you seem, boss."

......

"Hey, hey, Potato Chips, are you sure the stuff is here?"

In the tunnel, a figure sneaked around, the sound of crackling leather shoes kept hitting the ground, and now he no longer cared about making any noise, because he could feel the group of people leaving.

"Of course I'm sure, how can the boss's words be wrong?" Su Enxi on the other end of the headset was sleepy-eyed, she had just been woken up from her sleep by her boss, and she was complaining in her heart that "even capitalists are not so exploitative".

However, no matter how much she was slandered, she didn't dare to continue to sleep, otherwise her work would be gone, so after making a cup of hot milk and some cereal, the girl sat at her desk, analyzed the faxed map, and was in charge of remote command.

"Are you really sure it's here? I searched several times and didn't find what the boss said. The figure muttered.

"Don't worry, don't worry, aren't the people from the academy gone? Wait for me to put on a mask. ”

"Applying a mask? Sister Potato Chips, you're a little too much, have you ever seen a war and asked the commander what to do, and the commander said that he would wait for him to finish the game?

"Don't talk nonsense, stinky brother, my wife is almost thirty years old, and no one will want it if you don't maintain it." Su Enxi pouted: "I'm not like your long-legged sister, who catches a man's eye with her figure, I'm a good-looking faction." ”

The man under the mask of "......" raised his hand to his forehead, not knowing what to say.

"But, then again, did you find the round platform that surrounds it?"

"Found it, it's in front of me."

"It's going to come in the form of a lump of dirt or something, and it might look a bit like dirt that has been silent for years, and I hope you don't dislike it."

"I've wiped the round table with my hands, it's cleaner than my face, and I haven't showered in nearly five days. But I haven't seen anything yet. ”

"How is that possible? No kidding. ”

"I'm not kidding."

"Retreat." A voice that didn't belong in the channel suddenly rang out.

"What's wrong, boss? Could it be that you have also miscalculated? The figure took off his mask, a playful smile appeared on his face, and said in a strange manner: "No, no, boss, are you playing with me?" ”

"I really didn't expect that boy's blood to be so high." The 'boss' lowered his voice and said calmly, "There are some inexplicable things that have joined our game." ”

"Is it Lu Mingfei?" Su Enxi asked.

"Hmm."

"I'd like to meet him." The figure in the shadow walked into the light, it was a man, a boy to be precise, no more than seventeen or eighteen years old, with pale blue eyes, but his appearance was distinctly Asian.

"There's a chance." The 'boss' laughed: "There's one more element of uncontrol, and it looks like the game is going to be more fun." ”

"I hope so, but it's still a little uncomfortable to run for nothing." The boy sighed, "I'll have to take a good vacation when I go back." ”

......

"You're all awake."

Lu Mingfei walked into the tent and looked at the three people who were talking, smiling, and behind him was Professor Mance with a serious face.

"Teacher." Seeing the figure of the little old man, Ye Sheng hurriedly stood up, he looked quite weak, and his legs were still trembling when he stood up.

Mance didn't speak, just squinted at him.

"Professor Mance ....." Caesar saw Mance's serious face and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Lu Mingfei.

"It was my mistake." Ye Sheng said in a deep voice: "I made a wrong judgment at a critical moment, which caused the team to be trapped below, and I should be responsible for this mission." ”

"That's not what I'm trying to talk about." Mance grimaced, his head raised, his gaze constantly scanning him and the still-sleeping girl on the ground.

"......." Ye Sheng lowered his head, like a child who had made a mistake.

"How is Aki's body now?"

"The doctor checked it and the vital signs were normal, but he was still unconscious and needed to recuperate for a while, but he said that there would be no big deal." Ye Sheng sighed: "Back at the academy, I still need to do further examinations to see if there is a concussion or something." ”

Mance took out his briefcase and took out two slips of paper from it: "You two retreat to the second line, this mission should have a great impact on you, I have already explained the situation to you on the principal's side, he said that you did a good job in this mission, and rewarded you with half a year of vacation." ”

Ye Sheng raised his head: "That's all you want to say?" ”

"Stinky boy, do you want me to scold you?" With a smile on his face, Mance patted him on the shoulder: "You have done a good job in the past few years. It's good to come back, by the way, it was Lu Mingfei who carried you back one by one in the end, remember to thank them. ”

"Hmm." Ye Sheng bit his lip.

"But you two, and Caesar. Gattuso, Chu Zihang, Lu Mingfei, the principal asked the five of you to return to the academy quickly. Mance reverted to the same serious professor again, looking at the trio in the corner: "Something seems to be going on on the headmaster's side." ”

"Huh? Didn't you say you could rest for a few days? Lu Mingfei protested.

"The protest is ineffective, the principal's plane has been waiting for you at the airport, hurry up and pack your luggage, the car has come to pick you up."
