Dragon Clan: Thought So Far

Chapter 351 342. Zero: As long as it’s you, I’m looking forward to it

Caesar didn't know that the city of the Age of Gods that was detected under the abyss had long lost its owner. The Yamata no Orochi, the bearer of the White King's genes, who was sleeping there, had been sacrificed to the ancient dragon many years ago. The embryo woke up and returned to Japan following the direction in its memory.

Although the ghost-toothed viper, a dragon subspecies that looks more like a snake than a fish, exists as an executioner and guardian in the dragon civilization, if their owner leaves, these devilish little things will become Especially manic, with drastic changes in habits.

They still guard the ancient Takamagahara, waiting for their master's call, but there is nothing to keep them in one area and not expand outwards.

It seems that these ghost-toothed vipers have become the top predators in the ecosystem of the dragon subspecies in the Abyss.

Kassel College should be grateful that the owners of such dangerous creatures did not give them perfect genes when they created them. Otherwise, twenty years would be enough time for the vipers, which have no natural enemies in nature, to spread throughout the Pacific Ocean.

That would be a horrific biological catastrophe that would devastate the ocean's biodiversity until a way to kill them is found.

Only the dragons know how to control the ghost-toothed dragon viper, but now that method has completely disappeared with the decline of dragons.

The Trieste was still descending slowly, and the No. 1 watertight compartment was filled with seawater.

Outside the observation window, the water that was stirred like a busy white mist has returned to calm. Thousands and tens of thousands of ghost-toothed dragon vipers are swaying their fish tails, like the same number of bullets, chasing the mutated shark toward the sea at high speed. went.

"Can one shark fill the bellies of so many monsters?" Caesar took out a cigar from nowhere, but did not light it. He just held it between his fingertips while trembling slightly.

"No, but the ghost-toothed dragon viper does not just rely on eating meat to survive. Some experts who study dragon subspecies believe that their bodies have certain organs that can absorb energy from ores." Chu Zihang frowned. , carefully control the deep submersible to dive at a constant speed.

At the current speed, it would only take them twenty minutes to reach the scheduled depth of 4,500 meters, which is already close to the edge of the dragon subspecies ecosystem.

"There are classics in the library that record that the Sumerians raised dragon vipers to eat iron ore. The iron became more and more enriched and purified in their bodies. Then the Sumerians burned the vipers with low-temperature flames. Obtain iron with a better quality. You can find transparent crystal-like substances in this iron, which are the teeth of dragon vipers." Chu Zihang continued, "In addition, the ancient Babylonians also have records of raising ghost-toothed dragon vipers. They used these. The little monsters of the Salmonidae family come to extract extremely pure gold and silver to build that marvelous building, the Hanging Garden.”

"Unfortunately, we have no way to sample these viperfish. This depth is not suitable for underwater diving." Caesar said.

At this time, the sonar screen began to flash red again, and the threat was not far away. The Diliest once again issued a silent warning to Caesar and Chu Zihang.

The thing was approaching very slowly, right above the Trieste.

Sparkling waves of light flowed in from the observation window above and echoed on the inner wall of the Diriaste's cockpit, like the bright moonlight reflected on the lake with a gentle breeze in the middle of the night.

Caesar held his breath and looked up, seeing a ghost-toothed viper swimming leisurely past the observation window.

When viewed up close, the objects do not appear to be as beautiful and graceful as they appear when viewed from a distance.

On the contrary, the appearance of that viperfish can be called the most ferocious and ferocious creature on earth.

Its body is only the size of a finger, but it is as slender as a ferocious baby snake. Its tail fin and pectoral fin are small and sharp, and its body is densely covered with overlapping and interlocking silver transparent scales.

The most terrifying thing is the teeth of the Ghost-toothed Dragon Viper. They are as transparent and sharp as ring-cut diamonds, with a faint metallic luster. They are curved and long and narrow, sticking out of the lips. The violence of the ancient gods is rushing towards the face.

The little fish was swimming back and forth outside the thickened Plexiglas, and its golden eyes glowing like fireflies seemed to be looking at the two people in the Diriaste cockpit through this thick transparent barrier.

"Don't worry, this thing's eyesight is as bad as his hearing." Chu Zihang calmly fiddled with the buttons and switches in front of the console, while Caesar pressed his face against the inner wall of the plexiglass.

He did not light up his golden pupils, and those ice-blue eyes clearly reflected the fluorescent ghost-toothed dragon viper.

A whole swath of stars suddenly appeared above the Diriaste, which was the school of viper fish that had just passed them to chase the shark.

The fleeing megalodon seemed to be dead, with thousands of viperfish biting the skin and muscle fibers with their powerful upper and lower jaws, like thousands of stars gathering around it.

Other viperfish swirled around the huge, slowly falling corpse, like cantilevers around the core of the galaxy.

The silver and fluorescent blue light lit up the abyss-like darkness in the water two kilometers deep under the sea, illuminating the shark's entire body.

Caesar's eyes widened as he saw densely packed dragon vipers nailing the poor guy's body. The ghost-toothed dragon vipers wildly swung their slender tails to bite its body, but did not get into its body to devour it. Offal.

"They were just gnawing at the muscles of the shark, but they kept its internal organs and bones intact. It's incredible. Logically speaking, the liver and spleen of animals are usually the first parts that predators eat." Caesar exclaimed in amazement. sound.

"Perhaps this is the reason why they chased them out of the ecological circle. There was something in the shark's internal organs that was not allowed to be taken away." Chu Zihang said coldly, "Maybe it was the flesh and blood left when the embryo hatched, maybe it was... The genetic remains scattered when the ancient dragon broke out of its shell, in short, those are sacred things to the Ghost-toothed Dragon Viper..."

The so-called God's things are treasures that are absolutely not allowed to be taken away from that ecological circle.

Even another god must respect his own kind. How dare a beast dare to overstep that?

Thousands of stars dragged the huge corpse past the Diriaste. Some viperfish curiously cruised around the slowly sinking iron lump for several times, and then followed after finding nothing. ethnic group.

——

The black Hummer was speeding on the mountain road at the junction of Yamanashi Prefecture and Kanagawa near the Tama River. The wiper on the front windshield was swinging from side to side like crazy, breaking up all the falling snowflakes and ice crystals. The bright headlights could only illuminate less than ten meters ahead in the thick veil of snow. The modified wheels clung to the asphalt road, splattering snow dust as high as a person on both sides.

Sakura, who was wearing a black ninja uniform and a sheepskin coat, drove the car, with Minamoto sitting in the passenger seat. There was no one else in the car except for the titanium black weapon box in the back seat.

From Genji Heavy Industries to the Tama River, Minamoto Chisei did not let the elites of the Executive Bureau accompany him.

Now is a troubled time. The heavy snow has given some time for the underworld war that broke out in the core of Tokyo last night to cool down, but the Snake Qihachi family has fallen into a situation where they are surrounded by enemies and isolated from all sides.

They wiped out more than half of the active forces of the Fierce Demons, but neither captured Sakurai Kogure, codenamed Ryoma, nor killed Kazama Ruri. As for the King General, he was even more of a legendary figure.

Not to mention that just the day before, Masamune Nagatachibana, the previous head of the Jakiki Hachi family, gave the family the last order in his life. That order was to launch a war against Kassel Academy and pull out the academy in Tokyo. nail.

Japan is the Japan of the Snake Qihachi family. It has been like this for thousands of years. In a sudden attack, they mobilized hundreds of hybrids to participate in the attack. The academy's safe haven in Japan was unable to resist.

But everyone knows that Angers will never give up, and a violent counterattack is just around the corner.

——"I'm wondering if Yuan Zhisheng already knows that the Yamata-no-Orochi is hiding in the Red Oni River?" Lu Mingfei squatted under the big tree on the mountain, holding a lit cigarette in his mouth, overlooking the winding mountain from a distance A black Hummer flashed on the road.

Zero stood beside him holding a big umbrella with a white cover. Snowflakes fell rustlingly, landed on the umbrella, and then fell to the ground.

Sure enough, the turtle arrived at the Tama River.

What is he doing here? Confirm whether the Yamanashi Environmental Science Research Institute has opened a deep shaft leading vertically to the shrine?

Or come with a sword to end things with Lu Mingfei?

"It's possible that the boss said that something was wrong with Tachibana Masamune, and that Minamoto was raised by Amaterasu himself. Maybe the former head of the Jakikihachi family already knew where the holy remains were." Zero said, "We After investigating Tachibana Masamune's background, he appeared in the sight of the Sheqi Eight Families in 1992. Before 1993, he was still a little-known figure. In 1994, Tachibana Masamune immediately showed his talents after joining the Executive Directorate of the Sheqi Eight Families. With extraordinary personal abilities and leadership charisma, he rose from executive director to head of the Orange family within ten years.”

Lu Mingfei frowned as he listened to Ling's words. He knew the life of Tachibana Masamune or Herzog better than anyone else, and could even say that he knew it by heart.

He became the acting director of the Executive Board in 1999, the head of the Orange family in 2001, and the head of the eight Sheqi families in 2003.

In terms of ability alone, Herzog can be called a perfect hexagonal warrior. With his personal bravery, strategizing, and leadership style, he is almost a perfect politician. Even if such a person runs for president of the United States, he will not necessarily lose to others. candidate.

"The Lenin sank in the Sea of ​​Japan at the end of 1991, on the eve of the disintegration of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, and Tachibana Masamune appeared in 1992. What did you think of?" Zero asked.

"He came to Japan with the Lenin," Lu Mingfei said.

"He is a ghost in a certain port, but the survivors of that port don't know a person like Masamune Tachibana." Zero said coldly.

Lu Mingfei was stunned.

He knew that Herzog had worked in an unnamed port in Siberia, as a scientist captured by the Soviets from Germany who had been restricted in his movements and ordered to engage in an... unknown research for the rest of his life.

But he didn't expect that Zero also knew about that port.

"That port was the property of the Romanov family for a while, but the Republic of Estonia obtained the research information there after the collapse of the Soviet Union." Zero said,

"It's not accurate to say that. It's more accurate to say that my family and other ancient families provided information for that port in the 1980s."

"There is such a huge difference between people." Lu Mingfei shrugged and spit out the last cigarette butt into the snow. He stood up and stood side by side with Zero, watching the Hummer disappear from sight.

"In the 1980s, our family still lived in the Khrushchev House. In order to raise tuition for my father, my uncle had to drop out of school early and go to work in a big city." Lu Mingfei felt a slight movement in his heart. The family that seemed to have nothing to do with him anymore Suddenly, it broke into his memory quietly.

That uncle who always wore oily hair and had no money to spare two hundred yuan in his pocket before going into business was actually a man who gritted his teeth and got out of the misery.

If he wasn't an uncle, my father probably wouldn't have the money to go to college or Kassel College, right?

In fact, when I think about it, my uncle is very kind to me, but he is just afraid of his wife.

But why isn't he afraid of his wife?

Lu Mingfei heard her aunt say that when she first married into Lao Lu's family, Lu Gucheng was a small civil servant. It was difficult to support himself, not to mention that he had to pay his brother monthly living expenses to support the family, so his aunt took out the dowry packed in the box. Subsidize household expenses.

Thinking about it this way, it is understandable that I hate him deeply. In other families, the eldest son takes on important responsibilities, but in his old family, the second son has become the one who has to shoulder the responsibility.

My uncle didn't say anything, but sometimes he lamented that he actually wanted to study at that time, but he had no money, no money to study...

"Let's go back to the camp and see what Yuan Zhisheng wants to do here." Lu Mingfei stretched out, took the umbrella from Ling's hand, and naturally showed his arms, and Ling took his Walking forward with arms folded.

There was a thick layer of snow on the road, and the bottom layer was crushed into ice. Ling's hiking boots and Ling's boots made crackling sounds on top, including the sound of the ice cracking and the sound of fallen leaves and branches breaking. The sound of falling.

The communication with Nuonuo has been restored. The senior sister expressed her welcome to Zero's temporary joining of the mission, and implicitly warned Lu Mingfei that if he dared to act in a wrong way, he would be dismembered by the careful six horses.

"You must have had a hard time when you were a child, right?" Zero asked suddenly.

Lu Mingfei scratched his hair, feeling a little embarrassed, "It's not that bad, it's like this when living under someone else's roof. My parents are unreliable, and there's nothing I can do about it," he said.

He looked at Ling and wondered why she suddenly mentioned this, so he continued the conversation.

"What about you? Her Royal Highness must have had a happy childhood. She had a twelve-layer cake on her birthday and received hundreds of gifts at Christmas."

"My parents died as long as I can remember, so I had to be the head of the family when I was very young. At that time, the oligarchs in Moscow knew that there was a little girl in the Romanov family who was no taller than a tire and was worth billions. Many people thought "Become my guardian, but General Vatutin warned them not to try to take advantage of me," Zero said.

"I live in Elizabeth Palace with no family, just a butler and a bunch of servants. I won't have anyone to celebrate my birthday or give me a gift at Christmas."

Lu Mingfei was speechless for a moment, thinking that every family had a sutra that was difficult to recite. He wanted to reach out and touch the little girl's head, but his dominant arm was still held by Ling.

"It would be great if we knew each other at that time. You don't need to live in your uncle's house, but live with me. I will choose one of the bedrooms in Elizabeth Palace for you. You will be responsible for giving it to me on my birthday. Buy cakes, help me cut down a Christmas tree at Christmas, and stuff the socks under the tree with presents.”

"But people say Lu Mingfei is dull. I don't know what girls like. Maybe he stuffs Gundam models into his socks."

Zero continued to hold Lu Mingfei hostage on the rugged mountain road at a strolling speed.

She didn't speak for several minutes, and Lu Mingfei thought the topic was over.

Zero suddenly said casually: "Actually, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if you have a Gunpla Ultraman doll or even just a candy. You are with me, so as long as you are with me, I am looking forward to it."

Lu Mingfei's expression was a little embarrassed for a moment.

Ling suddenly laughed. She seemed to have never smiled in front of Lu Mingfei. Her eyebrows were curved like a bright lake. At this time, Lu Mingfei was stunned.

She stood on tiptoes and reached out to pinch Lu Mingfei's cheek. "You're so funny when you're embarrassed, like a little seal." Ling said, and immediately returned to his usual indifference.

Lu Mingfei blinked, wondering why he was related to Seal.
