Chapter 341 Visitors from the Palace
Twenty minutes later, Lu Mingfei reappeared in the conference hall of the Valhalla of Kassel Academy holding the "Heroic Sacrifice" with blood still on it. Most of the elders and school directors were still in shock, staring at Lu Mingfei nervously, worried that they would follow in the footsteps of the predecessors of the Gattuso family.
With the power displayed by Lu Mingfei, I'm afraid no one can stop him from turning this place into the next large-scale funeral site.
But he just calmly returned the "Heroic Sacrifice" to Beowulf, whose face was tense, and then turned his head to look at Frost:
"The follow-up will be left to you to handle."
"Understood, Your Excellency."
Frost replied respectfully, sweeping away his previous expressions of fear, sadness, and confusion, and when he stood up, he once again turned into the proud and calm director of the Gattuso family.
After bowing to the elders as a sign of courtesy, he strode out of the conference room, took out the phone from his arms, and called back nearly a hundred missed calls one by one.
All the predecessors who served as the "heads" of the family are dead, and Pompey Gattuso may still be "fighting fiercely" on the belly of some world-famous socialite in bed... Then before Caesar comes back to take power, Frost will be the real ruler of the Gattuso family, and no longer a finger and puppet who is only responsible for doing things for the family.
Frost instinctively had no thoughts of resistance or refusal. Absolute power brought absolute voice. The experiences of the ancient sages were the most direct examples. Now no one could be the enemy of the hybrid who had killed the three Dragon Kings and the power behind him.
"There are still huge threats to humanity in this world. I hope that this kind of boring farce will not happen again during our time together," Lu Mingfei looked around at the people in the conference room and said calmly, "For the sake of human peace, let us work together."
The only response he got was silence and stillness in the conference hall. The old people seemed not to be used to having a higher-ranking person in power above them, nor did they trust that Lu Mingfei would be a qualified leader rather than a dictator.
"I don't care whether you trust me or not. My soldiers and I are responsible for eliminating the threats that exist in this world, and all you have to do is support and cooperate," Lu Mingfei said calmly, but his eyes were shining with bright golden light, "... and completely give up the fantasy of becoming a new dragon."
"Whether it's you or other hybrid forces, if you don't want to give up this fantasy, then I don't mind helping you on the physical level."
Applause rang out from the corridor of the conference hall. The elders looked sideways, thinking that it was Frost who came back specially to show his support for his new master, but unexpectedly it was... Hilbert Jean Angers, the principal of Kassel College, who was seriously injured and dying in an unknown attack a month ago, but miraculously recovered.
No one knew when this old man, who had been lying in the convalescent cabin for nearly a month, woke up. He changed his hospital convalescent clothes into a neat and clean brand-name suit, with a bright red rose in his chest pocket and his silver-white hair combed meticulously. When he walked into the conference room, the elders closest to him even smelled the scent of a special cologne mixed with sandalwood and seaweed...
This coquettish old thing!
The elders who were also senior citizens all said this in their hearts, and at the same time they were a little envious. If such a charming and energetic old man were put in a social occasion, there would still be young girls who would invite him to dance with them, right? However, most of them would not even want their great-granddaughters to dance with them.
But that's not the point... Seeing Ange's reappearance, except for Elizabeth Laurent and others who were truly happy, the other elders were more concerned about whether he could check and balance Lu Mingfei...
After all, the strongest half-blood of the previous secret party was Ange.
"Principal, when did you wake up?" Lu Mingfei's eyes lit up and he smiled in surprise. Although he knew that Ange had kept many secrets from him, he still respected this old dragon-slayer warrior.
"More than three hours ago, right? That was plenty of time for me to tidy up my appearance and watch a wonderful play. But to be honest, it's already remarkable that you can get Frost to bow and scrape to you."
Angers responded with a smile, nodded to Elizabeth, and then glanced at the secret party elders in the conference room. His silver-gray eyes shone with wisdom behind his gold-rimmed glasses. "I know exactly what you are thinking, but my old bones can't clash with energetic young people... so please spare me."
He made it clear that he would not have any conflict with Lu Mingfei.
"And I just woke up...it seems like the world has almost advanced to the point where I can retire early?"
Principal Ange looked at Lu Mingfei again with a smile on his face.
"If you, the principal, don't want to retire and want to continue fighting, I have better options and a bigger battlefield." Lu Mingfei said seriously.
"Forget it, please spare my old bones," Ange waved his hand, "Do you want to go to my office for afternoon tea? The time is right, and I really want to drink a cup of steaming hot Turkish black tea... and listen to you tell me what happened when I was lying in the protective cabin."
Lu Mingfei readily agreed.
……
"So during the time I was 'lying down', you conquered the King of Bronze and Fire, and the King of Earth and Mountain submitted to the Emperor behind you. You also found the Doomsday Faction hiding behind the scenes, and you also met your nominal parents. By the way, you killed a powerful demon..."
Ange took a sip of tea with a calm expression, "Maybe I should lie down for a while longer. Then when I wake up, I will be able to see you unify the Earth and lead mankind to the sea of stars."
"Maybe? But what is certain is that this planet cannot accommodate too many people. We have to use it as a base to expand outside the galaxy... But we still have to solve the problem of superluminal travel..."
Lu Mingfei answered seriously.
"...Then let's bring the topic back to the present from the sea of stars," Ange sighed, "You said...you are part of the Black King?"
"My body is a clone of the Black King's personality, and now it has received a portion of Lu Mingze's power. Strictly speaking, this is true." Lu Mingfei nodded and said calmly, "I am not like Lu Mingze who likes to be a riddler or deliberately conceal things. You need to know the truth. Of course, I hope you can keep this matter confidential."
“No one would believe it even if I told them,” Angé stared at Lu Mingfei, “I recruited you into the academy with assumptions about your identity and special powers, but I never thought it would be this kind of existence.”
"But this does not conflict with my destruction of those dragons and dragon kings that endanger humans. The White King is dead, and the Bronze and Fire Kings who have lost some of their power want to become humans and be recognized by His Majesty the Emperor. The Earth and Mountain Kings seem to have mental problems, but for now I can guarantee their safety as long as they submit to His Majesty the Emperor;"
"As for the remaining two first-generation kings, the King of Ocean and Water, and the King of Sky and Wind, they can still survive if they do not cause trouble and are willing to submit to His Majesty the Emperor. Otherwise, they can only make their own contributions in the form of dragon bones. As for the Black King... its final disposal plan cannot be determined yet."
Lu Mingfei calmly explained to Ange the secret that even his brothers in the legion had not yet known.
Ange held the bone china cup and drank tea silently.
"After the threat to this world is lifted, I will probably lead a new legion back to that universe full of enemies to save more humans, but before that I need to recruit a large number of mixed-race humans as soldiers for the legion..." Lu Mingfei fixed his shining eyes on Ange again, "Principal, are you interested in that universe? I can tell you more about it and the Emperor. What's more, you are also an excellent and reliable warrior. After the transformation, your physical age of more than a hundred years will no longer be a burden. In addition, with 'Time Zero'..."
"Please spare my old bones, Mingfei. I will probably retire after I see you helping me get rid of the Black King... As for the other universe, don't look for me." Angers shook his head quickly, "Or you can go to the vice-president. He was a famous 'bloodhound' when he was young."
……
Nibelungen Space, the city of new miracles.
Under the power of the Emperor's will and the alchemical techniques relearned by the alchemist soldiers, this magnificent bronze city palace that is level with the sky has now doubled its expansion outward, living up to its name of "miracle".
After having afternoon tea with Principal Ange, Lu Mingfei did not have time to meet Chu Zihang and Caesar who had just returned, and rushed back here without stopping, because His Majesty the Emperor specifically summoned him.
"Captain, a number of mysterious giants have come to visit us through the portal newly built by His Majesty the Emperor."
The person responsible for activating the teleportation matrix for Lu Mingfei was still the alchemist Sergeant Lao Tang. Not long ago, he carved a teleportation matrix that teleported directly to the Pantheon in Rome. After Jörmungandr opened up access to the "Great Library", the alchemist was able to enter to review the alchemy techniques that he had forgotten when he was the Dragon King, and he made rapid progress.
"Big guy? Portal?"
Lu Mingfei was a little confused, but the transmission matrix had been activated and a light blue light curtain enveloped him.
And when the light curtain disappeared, he had appeared in a spacious hall with a dome engraved with thousands of stars. The boy was sitting on the throne in front of him, and the sacred golden light mist was flowing around him, stabilizing the omnipresent five elements into a stable musical score.
"Your Majesty." Lu Mingfei half-knelt on the ground and saluted the Lord of Humanity.
Before he lowered his head, he had already noticed the majestic golden figure standing beside the boy's throne... Was it Astarte? No!
The golden power armor that figure was wearing was not the common standard power armor of the Imperial Astartes in terms of model and paint. It was both magnificent and indestructible, and exquisite like a work of art. The golden eagle totem engraved on its surface was lifelike, as if it was about to break out of the armor and soar with its wings spread. There was an eagle seal and glory feathers on the right chest, a conspicuous golden halo on the back of the armor, and a bright red cloak hanging from the back biting the shoulder armor...
All of these illustrate the noble and extraordinary status of this warrior.
The weapon he held was also a masterpiece that Lu Mingfei had never seen before. It was a huge axe with a long handle. The dark blue axe blade was covered with dense lightning like silver snakes. Behind the axe, a golden eagle was flapping its wings and flying, shining brightly.
More importantly, he was looking at himself with a rather sharp gaze. His handsome face, covered with scars, looked stern, and seemed to... inexplicably contain a bit of hostility and distrust?
Lu Mingfei remembered the titles of these warriors. He had seen these mysterious, powerful golden warriors who served the Emperor on the stained glass windows of the State Church and in the books of imperial history.
"Wake up, kid," the boy said calmly in High Gothic instead of Chinese, "Let me introduce you to the warrior next to me, the current commander of the Imperial Guards of Terra, Trajann Valoris. Trajan, this is Lu Mingfei, an outstanding warrior who will lead a new legion.
