Chapter 56: The Will of the Old Man (2)
"Hey, Headmaster, Vice Chancellor asked me to give you a call. You ...... now Is it convenient? ”
Lu Mingfei sensed that something was wrong with Ange's tone, and asked tentatively.
Ange glanced at the crowd around the long table, and saw that the old men on both sides of him had taken out cigarettes and put them on their mouths, bowed their heads slightly, and replied:
"What, what's wrong?"
"Headmaster, you asked me to put the knife in the vice principal's hand and let him study it for a few days, right?" On the other side of the ocean, Lu Mingfei looked at the double blades in the sword box, and frowned: "But they seem to be a little repulsive to the vice principal." ”
"Huh? Let's talk about it carefully. Ange was also a little confused.
"After I gave him the knife, it became so sluggish that it cut through a piece of cloth, but as soon as I touched it, it returned to its original form."
"Tsk." In the huge conference room, the middle-aged man who was fiddling with walnuts with his head was the first to make a sound, he raised his head, and saw that the old man who was playing with Buddha beads with a cigarette in his mouth was also stunned, and the cigarette ash fell straight down, falling on his valuable pants, burning a small hole, but the old man ignored the burnt smell and quickly exchanged eyes with the man.
Frost and Hannah. Nicklaus and the other had a confused look in their eyes, they had no knowledge of alchemy, and could only try to get some news from their eyes.
The most leisurely in the audience were Laurent and Su Enxi, the two drank tea and chatted about which house had recently released new clothes, and which house's jewelry was not only new, but also surprised by the figure of a well-known model.
"Really? Did the Vice Chancellor say anything? Ange was still smiling and unhurried.
"The vice principal said that this knife has been recognized, so that the principal can no longer hide the existence of this knife." Lu Mingfei said, his voice deliberately pressed down: "Especially the old bones of the school board." ”
"Okay, the old bones of the school board already know." Seeing Frost's gloomy face, Ange couldn't hold back his laughter for a while: "They are right next to me." ”
"Hey, Headmaster, are you playing a trap on me?" Lu Mingfei suddenly exploded, and his brain made up the scene in a dark room, where a group of bigwigs were planning to clean up their own scenes, the reason was that an old fox was unruly and answered the phone during meetings.
"Don't worry, they have lived for so many years, and there is no shortage of people who point at their noses and scold, and they may not all be dead." Ange smiled like an old naughty child: "Okay, don't worry, I've got you covered." ”
"I believe it...... Finish. Lu Mingfei was weak, swallowed the words 'you ghost', and hung up the phone decisively.
Hearing the sound of dripping on the other end of the phone, Ange looked playful, and looked at the man and the old man who were still looking at each other:
"What are you two talking about? It's better to say it and make me happy. ”
After a short silence, the middle-aged man lowered his head again and fiddled with the walnuts, and the old man picked up the bell and shook it gently, the sound was like the ringing of an ancient bell in a secluded temple in the early morning:
"Ange, you seem to have a good disciple."
"Of course, he's S-class, and for so many years, the only person who can get S-class evaluation just by bloodline is my old friend."
"Compare him to Menek. Kassel? It seems that your expectations for him are quite high. I don't know if he'll be able to get to that point. The old man raised his eyebrows slightly.
"To be precise, I think Lu Mingfei is better than Menek. Kassel has a lot of potential, because now we have the help of technology. Ange slowly exhaled a large puff of smoke: "Menek. Kassel can't use mercury bullets to restrict dragons, but Lu Ming can't, he seems to be a sharpshooter, I checked his high school target shooting results, twenty out of twenty, and this score is among the best in the American army. ”
"Is it the sense of a gun?" Hannah. Nicklaus asked softly.
"I don't know if the gun feels like a gun, but there's no doubt that he's also a good hand with a knife." Ange looked at the girl with a smile: "He hasn't entered school for training yet, so he cut off the head of a super A-level Deadpool with a pair of small knives, judging from the video sent back from the scene, there should be an A+, right, what do you say, Frost?" ”
"Indeed, Deadpool's strength after mutation should be A+, but we haven't figured out why he mutated yet." Frost made no secret of the fact that he had seen the live footage, and it was already a secret that the entire school board knew that the Gattuso family had installed personnel in the academy.
"His bloodline is indeed good, and he can be recognized by the Dragon King for leaving a weapon, but can you guarantee that he will not fall into those things?" The middle-aged man, who had been silent, raised his head sharply and stared straight at Ange.
"No, but no one can guarantee that they won't degenerate into Deadpool, and neither do any of you here. However, judging from the analysis of the Flamel guy, Lu Mingfei's bloodline is actually very stable. Ange replied:
"And, there's only one thing I can promise.
Anyone who turns into a dragon or a Deadpool is an enemy of mine, and the rest of my life is there to eradicate them once and for all. ”
The old man said lightly, and with the smoke surrounding his head, the conference room suddenly fell silent, and at that moment it seemed that time was flowing much slower.
No one doubts Angers' deterrent.
He has always been known as the peak of the half-breed man, from the twenty-year-old who experienced the Kassel Manor Incident and became the leader of the secret party, to the current one hundred and thirty years old who looks like he is only forty or fifty years old, during which countless leaders of the secret party have stood out and declined, only he has been standing like an ivy vine.
Now he should have been half-buried in the ground, but every year he still went to Chicago alone with a folding knife to whip the young half-breeds who didn't know what to do, which is said to have become the talk of the Kassel Academy, and every year the professor and Ange traveled to Chicago to find a bar on a rainy night to have a few drinks and listen to the wails of the street.
"Since this is the case, then I think this issue can be passed, Lu Mingfei is the new S-level, and our secret party should indeed pour some resources." The old man glanced at the middle-aged man who lowered his head and fiddled with walnuts, and took over the topic:
"I propose, that pair of little knives, just leave it to Lu Mingfei, when he is still related to the academy."
After speaking, he and the middle-aged man raised their hands in unison.
Ange smiled and raised his hand, followed by Laurent and Su Enxi.
"It seems that there are at least five votes, and I can tell Lu Mingfei to put the knife in his bed." Ange smiled and looked at Frost.
"But it's an important asset of the Academy, so why did you so quickly agree to put him in the hands of someone who wasn't from ours?" Hannah. Nicklaus glanced at the butler behind him, giving full play to his newcomer's advantage, and the girl's immature and fair face showed a hint of confusion.
"The Chosen, the Chosen One." The man playing with the walnuts closed his eyes and pronounced a word.
"That student in Ange is called Lu Mingfei." Twisting the Buddha beads, the old man laughed a few times and explained the man's words: "He was chosen by the weapon of the Dragon King, and once the weapon is recognized, it will never play a role in the hands of others." Moreover, if the owner does not nourish it with blood for a long time, it will turn against anyone who tries to touch the weapon. Therefore, I advise all of you here not to fight its thoughts, because then you will not only get a piece of scrap metal, but you will also be hunted down for the rest of your life by some vengeful old man. ”
The old man closed his eyes, relaxed his body on the backrest, and sighed faintly: "After all, Ange is a person who values the lives of his students more seriously. ”
"No, I will allow them to lose their lives, but only on the battlefield where the dragon is slain." Ange corrected with a smile: "They are the sharp weapons of dragon slaying, if there is a loss due to some other factors, I will be held responsible." ”
"Even so, there must be a process of choice." Frost was still unrelenting, and seeing the other two lowering their heads, his voice subconsciously amplified a little: "Why isn't this process going on in front of us?" Is the property of the dragon king distributed by Ange, and you say that it will be distributed? ”
"It's better to put it another way, aggressive lamb." Ange didn't hesitate, picked up the bell and shook it gently: "Why don't you let that weapon try to choose Caesar first?" Is that right? ”
"I didn't say that. I mean that there are excellent half-breeds in the various school management families, no matter what, it will not be Lu Mingfei's turn to come from behind, Ange, you have to remember that the property of the dragon clan belongs to this academy, belongs to our school board, and should be distributed by us, no matter what, it should not be you who make the decision, you are overstepping your authority. Frost emphasized that the rest of the school board members were on the same page as himself.
"Oh? Is it? There was a hint of indifference in Ange's eyes, he exhaled a thin puff of smoke, looked at Frost faintly, then cast his gaze to an old man beside him, and finally circled the round table, and made eye contact with everyone:
"I remember that my condition as president of the Kassel Academy at that time was that everything should be done with the primary purpose of slaying dragons. What, are you going to go back? ”
"No, Ange, you're diverting the subject. I'm talking about the distribution of the school board's property, and I'm talking about our party rules. Frost roared.
Everyone looked at Ange who was playing with his cuffs with his head down, several of them were already covered in cold sweat, they knew what Ange hid in his cuffs, the folding knife that accompanied him to slay the dragon.
At this moment, Ange's mood had been extreme, which could be seen from the extremely rare cold look, and they had no doubt that Ange would cut off Frost's head in an instant.
Needless to say, Frost was the acting head of the Gattuso family, and even if Pompeii came and saw that Ange was angry, he would laugh and coax him until he was in a good mood.
No one would doubt whether Ange had the courage to do so, and from the records of the secret party, it was clear that there was nothing that this old man would not dare to do.
"Ange, calm down." The old man at the head of the long table got up and reassured, "And Frost......"
"I'm calm." Unexpectedly, Ange interrupted him by shaking his head and smiled at Frost: "It's my mistake, I didn't fully fulfill my obligation to explain." Since Frost has doubts, in this case, I will explain why I want to give this weapon to Lu Mingfei.
The weapon was made by the Bronze and Fire King, the pinnacle of alchemy among the dragons, and was specially crafted by him to kill his siblings, the other dragonlords. This kind of weapon that can hurt the dragon king, we have to put it on the hybrid who can face the dragon king directly. I know Caesar is good, but he already has Dick Tydo. It was also caused by the alchemists of the Gattuso family, and you must know its effect, Frost.
Moreover, the S-class needs a good knife, like my old friend Menek. Cassel has an Atkan sword, doesn't he? Ange smacked his lips: "Since I have set a high enough goal for Lu Mingfei, naturally I will also provide him with corresponding conditions, I believe that he will become the sharpest blade in my hands, stabbing at the Dragon King and cutting off the history of the Dragon Clan." ”
The crowd was silent, and Frost sat back, bowing slightly, as if agreeing with Ange's statement.
"In that case, then this topic ends here, and the weapon belongs to Lu Mingfei, as long as it can ensure that he can continue to play for the Kassel Academy." The old man shook the bell and concluded: "Moreover, since Lu Mingfei has potential, we should provide him with some help, Principal Ange, I agree with your words, if you want a person to achieve the goal, you must provide certain conditions, and it is best to let him know the power of the secret party, after all, it is a child, if those half-breeds in North America use wealth to tempt him, it is easy to have problems in his thinking." ”
"Don't worry, I understand this after being an educator for so many years." Ange's expression also relaxed, and he flicked the cigarette ash: "But we shouldn't have to worry about money anymore, Pompey gave Lu Mingfei a black card." ”
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the room changed suddenly.
"Lu Mingfei has been in contact with Pompeii?" The middle-aged man playing with walnuts opened his eyes suddenly.
"Headmaster Angers, you're going to bring the good boy to the bad." Laurent exclaimed.
"It's a real disaster." Frost also had to hold his head and admit it.
"Hopefully things haven't reached the point of no return." The old man sighed.
"Pompeii?" Su Enxi's brows furrowed, and her big eyes were full of doubt.
"Alas, Miss Su Enxi, this person still doesn't know as well, and it is better not to know." Laurent replied, completely unaware that she had said it twice, and her words drew a lot of nods from everyone, especially Hannah. Nicklaus, with a slight horror on his face.
"He ...... you What was done? Su Enxi couldn't help but ask.
Recalling the man's smiling face in their minds, everyone shook their heads silently, obviously unwilling to continue on this topic, Su Enxi saw this and didn't ask much.
"Alright, let's move on to the next topic." Ange got up and shook the bell, continuing to be the host:
"Guys, let's deal with the easy things to solve first, about the financial problems of the academy this year......"
