Chapter Thirty: Immense Cassel
On April 12th, the sun rose on a new day, and the bells rang in the bell tower, waking up the sleeping campus.
A day in the Kassel girls' dormitory begins in the swimming pool. Black shadows keep falling from the upstairs, and fallen flowers bloom in the water with a plop, just like falling dumplings. But when the water breaks open, what is revealed is a
Delicate and heroic face.
Xi Ziyue brushed her teeth while watching the group of people playing in the pool.
"Everyone is pretty," she said to herself.
The textbook says that dragon blood filters out impurities in the mixed-race body, basically saying goodbye to acne and various skin diseases. Even if the foundation is not good, at least it will not be ugly.
Mixed-race women don’t even need to put on makeup in the morning or makeup remover at night. If ordinary people did this, their skin would be ruined long ago.
Xi Ziyue suddenly remembered the scene where Elizabeth stuffed the macaron into her mouth without restraint while showing superiority that this was a scene of power.
Quite an interesting line.
"Junior sister, you seem to be famous." Greer turned on the computer early in the morning and logged into the Night Watch forum.
After washing up, Xi Ziyue leaned her head towards the screen——
Her photo appeared at the top of the forum, with the title "Hello, Miss Squirrel".
It was the moment when she was squatting on the steps of the fountain drinking water, and was illuminated by a spotlight, that she realized that she really looked like a squirrel at that time.
"Did you pin this to the top?"
"No, it was the vice principal who put it on top. His name is Night Watchman. You can think of him as the leader of the group. I only manage. His authority is higher than mine."
Greer pointed out the window. There was a small bell tower next to the church, and the night watchman lived in the attic of the bell tower.
Like the Hunchback of Notre Dame...
"Am I being targeted?" Xi Ziyue remembered that she had a special mission.
"To be precise, you are being noticed." Greer said.
"Of course, this is nothing to make a fuss about. He basically pays attention to all the female students in Kassel. In his words, it is his unshirkable responsibility to care about the future development and physical and mental health of women. The championship trophy of the beauty pageant every year is given by
He awarded it himself."
"Can I... shoot him if necessary?" Xi Ziyue asked seriously.
"This... don't worry, under the suppression of Principal Ange, he doesn't dare to do anything wrong... By the way, his speech spirit is serial number 106, commandment. The effect is very abnormal and can suppress everything in the field.
Hybrids and even dragons have the ability to speak spirits. It is precisely because of the existence of this spirit that this school with superpowers per capita is not beaten to death all day long."
"Isn't that a bloody blow yesterday?" Xi Ziyue asked.
Greer smiled: "It's just Frigga. If these little ancestors were really allowed to use their words and spirits at will, they could have demolished the school in just one day yesterday... The only place that is not suppressed by the precepts
It's a large training room dozens of meters underground, where the students do their spiritual training, but it shouldn't be of much use to you."
"Can't the spirit of key be trained?" Xi Ziyue asked.
"This is a very special word spirit. It is so special that it does not have a serial number. One of its major features is that it cannot be trained. No matter how many doors you open with it, it will not improve its effect. It is like an eternal fixed value."
"Is that so..." Xi Ziyue lowered her head thoughtfully.
Speaking of which, she also used the Word Spirit Holy Judgment last night. Although it only lasted for two seconds, it was finally used...under the suppression of the commandments.
"Then what should we do to use the speaking spirit under the suppression of the commandments?" Xi Ziyue asked.
"It's very simple, as long as your bloodline is strong enough. For example, Principal Angers' bloodline is rated S-level. Although the vice-principal is also S-level, it is not enough to suppress the other party."
S-level is the top level of the pyramid among hybrids. It is stronger than the current Zero or Charlotte, as well as the legendary Caesar and Chu Zihang, and they are only rated as A-level.
Last night, although Xi Ziyue fought against the high pressure of the commandments and shot out the holy cutter, it seemed that his bloodline was stronger than the others... But on the other hand, it is said that every mixed race was a winner in life before the bloodline awakened, and
She just happens to be the type with no talent, except for profiling.
There is a strange contradiction in her, like a misaligned building. This kind of building should collapse soon, but she stands still. No one can explain the reason.
"Speaking of which, I have to mention your 3e exam." Greer shook his head and sighed. For students, exams are never a good thing.
The 3e exam is an important criterion for grading, and its exam format is simply dictation.
The examiner plays white noise or electric current on the radio, hiding the more subtle dragon characters in the noise. Only students with superior pedigree can write them all... It is really just dictation, just like an English teacher dictating while
word, students at the bottom spell out the word.
On Bride's Island, Xi Ziyue also took a similar test. Elizabeth turned the piano volume to the maximum while reciting Long Wen personally. This was the only time in the history of the college that the school director personally took the test.
Although she passed that exam, it was not formal in nature, so her student ID card still says "pending".
"Do you have any idea of a rating for your review?"
"It sounds like you are asking whether you are going to Peking University or Tsinghua University..."
Greer's eyes flashed, and a sly smile appeared: "For someone who has mastered the answers to the test paper in advance, isn't it just a multiple-choice question about which school to go to?"
After that, she got under the desk, took out a document from the safe inside, and slapped it on the table with great force.
"This is the heirloom of our news department. The answers to the 3e exams over the years are up to you to choose from!"
this......
So here comes the question, shouldn’t the ancestral treasures of the Ministry of Information be antique cameras or films? Things like test paper answers, no matter how you think about them, they are treasures of the Ministry of Education, right?
"By the way...if I fail the test, will Lisa hack me to death?" Xi Ziyue said.
Although the exam is your own business, if you do not do well in the exam, your parents will always come to chop you with a knife.
Elizabeth, more or less Xi Ziyue's current parent, has invested a lot of educational resources, and she also has the face of an old British capitalist. If the investment goes to waste...
"This...should...at least be a little sad." Greer was stunned, really not knowing how to answer this question.
After thinking about it for a while, Xi Ziyue still chose to hold on to the answer.
"I choose a." Xi Ziyue said.
This is the result of a compromise. Considering that I have such a special ability as holding the key, my bloodline should not be too low, and considering the external pressure that Elizabeth may exert, I might as well overestimate myself.
"You can choose S if you want, as long as everything is correct, Lafayette may happily pass the position of head of the family to you." Greer was suspected of inciting.
Xi Ziyue sighed: "There is only one agent in the world who can perform tasks and show his face on billboards at the same time. His name is James Bond. If anyone else does this, it would be exposing their identity."
"That's right. You are still tasked with finding Lu Mingfei, so you can't be too arrogant... That's it for the time being. The 3e exam won't be held until tomorrow. Today is the freshman meeting. You can walk around first."
Greer took Xi Ziyue out of the blue and white Greek building and walked on the wide main campus road.
After the smoke from last night dissipated, what was revealed in front of Xi Ziyue was a campus with beautiful scenery. The roads were paved with neat floor tiles. The plants in the forest were redwood, white birch, rose, and lavender. When the spring breeze blew, the leaves rustled.
The sound of movement is like scales, and the fragrance of flowers and trees is like colorful whirlpools.
Men and women in school uniforms walked side by side, talking and laughing. Occasionally, the breeze blew through, lifting the corners of their clothes, forming a campus scenery. Some of them were discussing the free day last night, while others were discussing the recent past.
A popular drama or game, a bookworm sitting on a bench chewing a book, and a morning jogging group whizzing past on the stone bridge.
Today's painting style is completely different from yesterday. The school suddenly became gentle. Yesterday it was a violent lion. Today it is a quiet elk. It has removed its teeth and claws and replaced them with wise horns.
When passing by the front of the church, an angry roar came from the side——
"Oh! My God, the church! My church! The rose window designed by Sigmar Polke is just gone! It's all money!" The little old man with a bald head jumped angrily in front of the church.
"Quick! Give me your cell phone. I will report it to the school board. Such behavior is really too bad!" He stretched out his hand and asked for the cell phone from his entourage.
"Report, the person who damaged this place yesterday was the school director Charlotte herself."
"Ah..." The little old man choked immediately.
As Greer passed by, he pointed over there and said, "Did you see that over there? His name is Manstein. He is in charge of discipline and finance. His main subject is Dragon Language. He curses like this every year after Freedom Day."
, this was already a traditional project on campus, until the school director personally took the lead in sabotaging it."
"And over there, did you see that old man running across the Bermuda lawn in his pajamas with bread in his mouth? His name is Guderian, and his major subject is dragon genealogy. The reason why he didn't even have time to change into his pajamas.
I ran out probably because I was almost late for class."
"Looks like Colonel KFC." Xi Ziyue said as she looked at Guderian.
Soon, Professor Guderian was caught by Professor Manstein for violating the school rules by trampling on the lawn, and gave him a severe scolding.
"Did you see that muscular man in a vest lifting dumbbells under the tree? His name is Rundstedt. Guess what his subject is?" Greer started to play with suspense.
"I guess it's definitely not sports." Xi Ziyue said.
Judging from this man's powerful and masculine muscle mass, a normal person's first reaction would be that this man teaches physical education, but since Greer specifically asked, that's definitely not the case.
"Magic Mechanical Design is a very difficult science and engineering subject. He is also very strict. You have to be careful when you meet his class." Greer lowered his voice, as if he was afraid of being heard by the other party.
"I have a question." Xi Ziyue raised her hand.
"Are you trying to say...why the three names you just heard are all the names of generals of the German Third Reich?" Greer seemed to have discovered the flaw a long time ago, and Xi Ziyue was obviously not the only one.
People have questioned it.
Xi Ziyue nodded.
She always felt that if the names were passed on in this order, Rommel would not be far away.
"This...I can't explain the reason. I can only understand that when the number of men is one, this person is often a coward. When men appear in twos, they are mostly a coward.
On the count of three, they will unite and become a bandit."
this.......
It sounds reasonable...
The reason why Xi Ziyue knows so many weird political and military jokes is because of her father's influence.
What he loves most is to study military and political literature on street stalls, denounce Fang Qiu on the Iron Blood Military Network, and also likes to announce his latest research results at the dinner table... even though no one pays attention to what he is saying.
But in Kassel, this knowledge came in strangely useful. Even the girls here were keen to discuss international politics, not celebrities and gossip. For them, political history or military gossip
It can be said that it is readily available.
The first time I felt that family environment was so important was in this Dragon Slaying Academy instead of other ordinary schools.
While walking, Xi Ziyue paid close attention to her surroundings, looking for traces of Lu Mingfei.
In the world of profiling, white crowds of people passed around her like the wind, and their voices overlapped and turned into a set of fast-forwarding shots.
No relevant traces could be captured.
Obviously, I could still see many fragments about him last night, but as if overnight, these fragments had all disappeared.
She thought about the devil again. It shouldn't be that after she beat the devil away, the devil got angry and wiped out all traces of Lu Mingfei in order to take revenge on her, right?
Xi Ziyue suddenly thought of the prophecy the devil made before disappearing——
"The bronze peaks will melt, the sea will boil, the earth will turn out its backbone, and finally the storm will destroy everything." Xi Ziyue read the prophecy left by the devil, "Sister, have you heard this sentence?"
Greer looked thoughtful: "Where did you hear this sentence?"
"The devil told me yesterday."
"Devil..." Greer nodded thoughtfully, "This sentence is probably comparing the resurrection of the four great monarchs, bronze and fire, ocean and water, earth and mountains, sky and wind.
, So far, the King of Bronze and Fire has been completely killed, the King of Earth and Mountain has been killed in stages, and the remaining two Dragon Kings have not yet appeared."
"What's the difference between complete death and staged death?"
"Dragon kings are difficult to kill. They will be resurrected from generation to generation. Each dragon king will complete a task on the day of resurrection, which is to form a cocoon... They will cut off a part of the body and seal it.
There are his complete genes and past memories. If he is really killed, the sealed body parts will hatch over a long period of time and become the new Dragon King again."
"Does that mean they can be resurrected indefinitely?" Xi Ziyue understood.
"The only way to kill the Dragon King is to kill them when they have just resurrected and before they have time to form cocoons and make eggs. This is how the King of Bronze and Fire was killed."
Greer pointed to the campus gate at the foot of the mountain: "In the summer of 2009, a team recruited from a hunter website invaded the campus. After that incident, we changed the campus gate from an ordinary iron fence gate to
The current fortress gate."
"The summer of 2009... wasn't that long before the day of freedom?" Xi Ziyue keenly grasped this time cutoff.
Greer nodded: "Yes, if Lu Mingfei really exists, and he is a chosen one, it is very likely that he appeared in the incident at that time... The day when the Dragon King Constantine awakened
.”
Just when he was about to continue, Greer stopped: "The incident is very complicated. I will give you the documents when the time comes. In short, the King of Bronze and Fire is completely dead, and although the King of Earth and Mountain is dead, he is still alive."
It can be resurrected, but fortunately the resurrection time will be very long, at least it is not something that our generation needs to consider."
Speaking of this, Greer suddenly frowned as if he remembered something: "Speaking of which, the King of Earth and Mountain seems to have invaded the academy, even as a student...Grandma's! Could it be that as long as he is a
Even the Dragon King can come in and out of Kassel like a vegetable market?"
"This... on the bright side, we can claim to the outside world that only the Dragon King has the ability to invade the academy. Under the guidance of this rhetoric, the academy appears to be impregnable and indestructible..." Xi Ziyue said speechlessly.
.
Perhaps the impregnable Cassel will become a meme, alongside famous lines such as Gotham City's simple folk customs.
"What did you say just now that the King of Earth and Mountain entered the academy as a student?" Xi Ziyue asked.
"This happened in 2010 again. A student named Xia Mi was recruited from Beijing to Kassel. It turned out that she was actually Jörmungandr, the king of earth and mountains. She sneaked into the ice cellar one night.
, dismantled the principal’s beloved treasure house, and also destroyed the vice-principal’s alchemy matrix. The situation at that time was precarious. As for why the college could survive in such a dangerous environment, it is unknown.”
"Can the Dragon King become a human?" Xi Ziyue was surprised.
"This involves a deep academic discussion, about whether humans are like dragons, or dragons are like humans, or whether there is something greater that created humans or dragons... In short, the Dragon King is emerging from the cocoon.
After that, they will remain in human form for a long time and live in society as ordinary people. This process may be twenty years or forty years, but once they recall the identity and memory of the Dragon King, they will
He will break free from the shackles of his body, transform into a dragon, and take revenge on the whole world."
Xi Ziyue thought silently for a while: "In other words, before transforming into a dragon, the Dragon King didn't even know that he was the Dragon King?"
"Yes, that's right... Don't worry, you won't be the Dragon King. Although there are many mysteries about you, your origin is very clear. Lafayette has also personally certified that you will not be the Dragon King.
Greer said with a smile, seeing through Xi Ziyue's worries.
Having said this, Xi Ziyue also felt relieved.
She and Elizabeth had talked about Lu Mingfei's issues before, and said that it was very likely that a certain mental spirit unknown to mankind was released, erasing everyone's memory of Lu Mingfei.
The only one who can do something so beyond common sense is the Dragon King, and the only one who can be immune to the effect of this word spirit... seems to be another Dragon King.
No one remembers Lu Mingfei, but she does. What's more, she is not familiar with Lu Mingfei. At most, she has heard of the existence of such a number one person.
But if not the Dragon King, what on earth is he?
"Just think of yourself as a freak. Before his death, Jörmungandr once mocked humans, 'You know us as much as a drop of water in the ocean.' Maybe you are a fish that slipped through the net beyond that drop of water."
Bar."
The bells on campus rang, coming from the Hall of Valor.
Chapter completed!
