Volume 3 Hello, Eri Chapter 336: Chasing Shadows (Part 2)
When she first boarded the Maybach, she had a vague premonition that the not-so-serious uncle in front of her seemed familiar. Later, Chu Tianjiao admitted it, but she still didn't understand what he did specifically. It was only when he jumped up to kill the god at the end that she knew of Chu Tianjiao 's dragon ancestry.
Now that I know the truth, thinking back on that past event, I realized that it was probably a vague sense of déjà vu. Chu Tianjiao had been disguised and active around me so many times, and I must have met him face to face. That's why Lu Mingfei asked, "Uncle, have we met somewhere before?"
"There is one thing I don't understand. Chu Zihang and I have inquired about Odin in the academy. My senior brother has always wanted to find clues about his father. This is very important to him. But we haven't found any information from beginning to end. What happened that caused Odin and Chu Tianjiao to become secret SSS-level files?" Lu Mingfei asked.
"Chu Tianjiao was the last of our S-class bloodline left. His Word Spirit is the same as mine, Time Zero." The figure of that man seemed to reappear in Angers' eyes. He was cold, restrained, decisive, and brave. He was undoubtedly a top-notch dragon slayer. This was Chu Tianjiao in his eyes. "This kind of Word Spirit is a weapon given to mankind by God. That's why the academy attaches great importance to Chu Tianjiao, even more than your parents. The mission assigned to him is of course the most difficult one in history, bar none."
Angé slowly opened the thickest file. When it was placed on the table, it was like a Xinhua Dictionary. The teacup even jumped at the dull sound of it falling to the ground.
On the title page is SSSS, the only remaining 4S-level file in Kassel Academy, which means that it should not even be kept in written form, but can only exist in the minds of certain people and be passed on by word of mouth when necessary. If the turmoil had not been too great, EVA would not have been able to read these materials. This was reprinted by EVA after Ange's oral narration, and a backup was left.
"The dragon remains discovered by Lu Lincheng and Qiao Weini in Siberia have been interpreted in detail over the past 20 years, and we were able to restore a piece of unknown history."
Ange said: "Those murals were indeed recorded by two different groups of people. Remember that Odin was called the Usurper? After the Black King died, he used some unknown method to directly obtain part of the Black King's power from the Black King's body, thus becoming a hybrid dragon king who surpassed the four monarchs. The first half of the murals is the record of the dragon clan. The second half is Odin's own record. He claimed to know the secret of the Black King's immortality, saying that the Black King will return again one day no matter what to punish all the traitors who defied his fate, so he had to be prepared. For this reason, Odin began to prepare his own army, which is the real Valhalla in Norse mythology."
The Hall of Valor in human legends and myths has a total of 450 doors, covering all walks of life. Among them are Odin's Valkyries, who are Odin's maids and are responsible for selecting brave warriors on the battlefield, taking their souls on war horses through the clouds and quickly sending them back to the Hall of Valor. In the Hall of Valor, these warriors drink, eat meat, fight, and train day and night, just to fight side by side at the end of the world, Ragnarok.
"Are you talking about Deadpool or something like that?" Lu Mingfei remembered the Deadpool she first saw on the viaduct that day. They could knock on the door while the Maybach was speeding.
"No, that's too low-level. Heroic Spirits are not things like Deadpools and Corpses. They are a concept of Word Spirits, and the name of this Word Spirit is Valhalla." Ange shook his head. "For thousands of years, Odin has been using his ability to travel through various times and places, taking away their corpses and bringing them back to his own Nibelung. You know, in Nibelung, the dead can also become Deadpools . Odin uses this method to reawaken these corpses and make them more advanced Heroic Spirits than Deadpool. Heroic Spirits will retain their previous appearance, age, memory, and all combat skills, and become Odin's army."
Angers flipped through a few pages in the archive, which were filled with a large number of descriptions in Old English and artists' paintings. Lu Mingfei found it difficult to understand, but she saw a famous huge round table in one of the paintings, surrounded by as many as 150 people dressed as knights.
"This is King Arthur." Ange pointed at the head of the round table. "Legend has it that after his death, several mysterious fairies took him to Avalon on a boat. People call it a distant utopia, the kingdom of fairies. In fact, someone witnessed Odin taking away King Arthur's body, but they didn't understand it, so they made up their own story. In fact, it was Odin's Valkyrie who took King Arthur to the Nibelung. In history, many people whose bodies were missing were taken away by Odin in this way."
"This makes me feel like Odin is Kabuto Yakushi... Is he trying to perform the Impure World Reincarnation in preparation for the Ninja World War?" Lu Mingfei broke out in a cold sweat. This sounded a little too horrifying, coming back to life, with corpses becoming heroic spirits, and continuing for thousands of years. This meant that the army under Odin's command might be the most talented army in history. Not only were they all mixed-bloods, but they were also extremely famous, ranging from emperors to legends.
"Odin's power comes directly from the Black King, and he stole it, so he may be the only person in the world who truly understands the secret of the Black King. It is because of this that Odin is so afraid and wants to organize an army of his own to fight against the Black King who will be resurrected in the future." Ange's eyes seemed to be filled with dark clouds. "Unfortunately, Odin cannot cooperate with humans. He does not belong to humans or dragons. We have no way of knowing what he knows. But I have good news to tell you. Becoming Odin's heroic spirit means true resurrection. This is a power that science cannot explain, and it subverts the concept of cause and effect, life and death."
An Hot Spot turned on the tablet computer on the table, and a waveform chart began to play automatically.
"We put a signal tracker on Chu Tianjiao. This tracker is very small, small enough to fit into his body, and it will not have any effect on him. It has been working all these years. From the day you and Chu Zihang met Odin, it did disappear for a while, but then it reappeared every once in a while, each time in a different place. So we can reasonably speculate that Chu Tianjiao has become Odin's Heroic Spirit. With his S-level bloodline and time zero, he is indeed qualified to become a Heroic Spirit. In addition, the remains of your parents were also stolen. We originally buried them in the cemetery behind Kassel College, and we cannot rule out the possibility that Odin took action."
This was undoubtedly great news. Lu Mingfei was surprised and happy. She wanted to call Chu Zihang immediately, but she suddenly remembered that Chu Zihang had already left with Odin. There would be no signal in the Nibelungen. Those flashing signals from Chu Tianjiao were probably because Odin carried Chu Tianjiao with him every time he took action.
Odin should have been the target of Chu Zihang's revenge, but at that moment he actually chose to follow Odin and listen to him. Perhaps his senior brother had discovered some important clues and did so? Maybe some of the things Ange said had already been caught by Chu Zihang.
But Chu Zihang didn't tell her... What was this? Did he really consider her his real girlfriend? Although she knew that this might be the usual style of that bastard straight man, and that he would take the lead once he sensed danger, Lu Mingfei still felt like she was deliberately abandoned.
"Now that the four great monarchs have been eliminated, even the White King has perished. Our only opponents are Odin, the Black King who has not been resurrected, and the Gattuso family." Angé closed the book and pushed it towards Lu Mingfei. "You can take it with you. My narration is just an overview. You can read the details yourself."
"Why would the Gattuso family dare to start a war with the hybrid world? Do they think they can challenge all hybrids? Just relying on that Sword of Retribution? You have to know that Tokyo is now open for them to fight, and they can't even take down a single one."
Although she already knew that it was the Gattuso family that caused the current situation, Lu Mingfei still didn't dare to believe it. The biggest reason might be because of Caesar. Would Caesar agree to his family attacking Kassel Academy, Tokyo, and even the whole world? That was a proud middle school student with a second syndrome. His goal of slaying the dragon was even just to prove himself.
"To be honest, Pompey has never been very trustworthy in my eyes." Angers sighed, "He is one of my few friends, but I have never seen him clearly from the beginning to the end. The top playboy is just a disguise he uses to cover his face. What exactly does the Gattuso family in his hands want to do and what does it control is always puzzling."
"But this is not something you should consider." Angers showed a reassuring smile to comfort Lu Mingfei, "Now the representatives of other school directors' families are sitting in the Japanese-style room next door. The behavior of the Gattuso family has aroused public anger. There are many people who want to deal with them. The war between families cannot be decided by one or two people. You don't need to get involved. The most important thing you should do now is to find Odin. Only Odin can unlock the ultimate secret of the Black King."
"I just found out that Odin has an army of Super Saiyans, and now he's telling me that my goal is to kill him... This is like the first time you play Touhou Eternal Night, and you're asked to complete the game with one life. There's no room for error! Am I going to go out on my own and fight all the heroes of humanity?"
Lu Mingfei held her forehead with her hand and felt a headache. This task was so difficult that it was incomparable to killing a dragon king. All the legends of kings, princes, generals and heroes from ancient times to the present could kill the dragon king many times, right? Who knows if there is something like controlling Junyan Time Zero or even Rhine! What if they pile up and explode? Can they be stopped? Not to mention that there is a mythical Odin behind them!
"I thought that based on your relationship with Chu Zihang, you should lift your skirt, roll up your sleeves, put your feet on the bench, and shout that it's time to take action, and then take action. I'm going to conquer the nine provinces in a hurry." Angé raised his eyebrows, picked up the hot tea and enjoyed it. He looked relaxed and very satisfied with his joke.
"I didn't expect that you, the principal, are also knowledgeable about Water Margin..." Lu Mingfei frowned. She felt that she was already poor enough, but there was still an old naughty boy in front of her who was disrespectful to his elders.
"I have read the four great classics over and over again, whether it is TV series or novels. After all, I am old enough and have enough time, especially now. Apart from this brain, I can't help you with anything." Ange slowly looked out the window, "To be honest, I really want to go with you, but now I am just an old man named Ange. Maybe revenge is like this. Once you achieve that goal, your heart will soon be empty. My enthusiasm, my anger, and my hatred seem to have been buried in the past with that knife. Maybe I will take them all into the coffin."
In the world of mixed-bloods, losing bloodline is a terrible thing. Only a few people know Ange's current situation, and he still needs to use his name to intimidate some people. However, he can still live to this day after experiencing four blood explosions. From a certain perspective, using bloodline as an exchange is actually a good deal. He should have died the moment his revenge was successful. Is there something that makes him hold on until now?
"Considering that this mission is extremely difficult, I can give you a privilege." Angers put down his teacup, "You can freely choose your teammates from the existing list of the academy, including those from other families outside. They are now in an absolutely reliable cooperative relationship with us, from professors to students to foreign aid. You can choose whoever you want."
"So good? I feel like this treatment is to let me choose my own harem members!" This is probably the rare news that can make people smile happily at the moment. Lu Mingfei immediately had some candidates in her mind.
"But you have to remember, I don't want you to really defeat Odin. There are too many unknowns about him. The extent of his power is completely unpredictable. Your biggest goal is to find out the secret between Odin and the Black King. It is best not to conflict with him unless necessary. According to the information we know, Odin should only attack targets he is interested in. He is not a violent killer." Angé warned.
"Yes, Sir!" Lu Mingfei stood up suddenly and saluted Ange . It seemed that she was still complaining that this wave was difficult to fight not long ago, but now her face was full of the spirit before going to the battle.
"Remember to drink your tea before you leave." Angé tapped the teacup as a gesture.
"No, I want to drink this cup of tea next time I come back." Lu Mingfei smiled, "Then you owe me a cup of tea, Principal. I will come back to ask you for it."
Ange was stunned for a moment, smiled faintly and nodded.
"Okay, then next time you come back, I'll prepare my best black tea for you."
