Chapter 42 Severing the Dragon's Feet, Chewing the Dragon's Flesh
Chapter 42 Severing the Dragon's Feet, Chewing the Dragon's Flesh
Having shed her former poise and elegance, Chen Wenwen now displays a morbid madness on her face.
Or to be more precise, it was a primal, instinctive desire; she craved fresh flesh and blood, and the dragon blood flowing from the bodies of the people before her.
Deadpool, she's already developing into Deadpool.
Mai Shude gripped the hilt of her sword tightly. She knew that she had tested Chen Wenwen before, and the other party did not have any dragon blood in her body and was not a member of the hybrid race.
That's why she was puzzled as to why the boss wanted to take the other person to this underground bronze city to carry out the mission.
However, seeing this scene before her now, she seems to have gained some understanding.
The boss has always had a quirky sense of humor!
Lu Mingfei looked calmly at Chen Wenwen in front of him; he recognized her.
After all, in his memories of this life, this girl named Chen Wenwen occupied most of his attention.
He was so familiar with that face that even in its current state, he could easily recognize it at a glance.
It's a pity that such a beautiful woman has become my enemy.
Although it is unclear what exactly happened, based on the analysis of the scene, he believes that Chen Wenwen must have been brought in by Shude Mai.
Unexpectedly, she recruited a new member to her side, but now is not the time to dwell on this.
"Walk."
Lu Mingfei opened and closed his lips, uttering a single, brief word.
Caesar's expression changed, and he wanted to argue, but Mai Shude had already quickly moved in front of him.
"I'll listen to you S-class officers."
She grabbed Caesar's arm and tried to lead him away.
Out of pride, Caesar really didn't want to resort to violence against Mai Shude at this moment. Moreover, after their previous struggle, both of them were already exhausted, so he had no choice but to compromise.
However, before leaving, he still left a message.
"Xia Mi has disappeared!"
Xia Mi has disappeared?
The image of his beautiful junior sister, who was as pretty as a fairy, flashed through Lu Mingfei's mind.
The available time is getting less and less, while the amount of things to deal with is increasing.
He looked at Chen Wenwen, who was gradually approaching and making probing threatening gestures.
Once no one was around, he removed his disguise, and countless black tentacles surged out from beneath him, instantly enveloping Chen Wenwen, who had sensed something was wrong and was preparing to retreat.
Then the tentacles transformed into a black fluid, covering her entire body, and in an instant, Chen Wenwen was enveloped in a large black cocoon.
Lu Mingfei stared calmly at the black fluid wriggling on the surface of the cocoon, his gaze as if he were looking at a dead object that had nothing to do with him.
······
Bronze fragments fell from above the dome.
The entire massive bronze city was now like a Rubik's Cube being turned, constantly changing.
There was not much time left before the bronze city was completely locked down, but at this moment Angers was just panting and staring intently at the mysterious black-robed man in front of him.
"What's the point of hiding your head and tail? Does the master have to do this even on his own territory?"
The other party is definitely one of the four great monarchs.
His presence here at this moment is enough to prove his true identity.
Norton, the King of Bronze and Fire, is the monarch who governs the fire element of earth, fire, wind, and water.
The man in black robes remained silent, but threw another punch. Angers's ring-pommel sword, which he had swung down, quickly shattered into fragments under this punch, scattering in all directions.
But Angers also took this opportunity to quickly create distance, leaping to a greater distance.
"I never thought that the respected Principal of Angers would have such a miserable day." The man in black robes spoke, his tone calm, but anyone could hear the sarcasm hidden within.
Angers remained silent, but simply took out a folding knife from his pocket.
At that moment, it was as if he saw an old friend.
Menek Cassel, the first president of the Lionheart Society.
What happened that summer night was still deeply imprinted in his mind.
We cannot forget, nor dare we forget.
"Now that you've come to this mysterious East, I wonder if you've ever heard of this poem?" Angers raised his head, his gaze sharp.
Xia Mi, dressed in black robes, sensed that something was amiss.
After she went into the water, she tried to separate from Caesar, originally wanting to see if her brother had awakened. But before she could find the location of the egg, she encountered the injured principal Angers.
The other party was alone at the time and was injured. Even if he had the reputation of being the strongest hybrid, that must have been when he was young.
How could she miss such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity? But now it seems that's not the case.
Even if a lion is wounded and nearing the end of its life, it is still a true lion.
"I can't remember the beginning of this poem, but I've always kept the middle few lines in my mind."
"In the east grows the Ruomu tree, beneath which dwells a dragon holding a candle."
Angers slowly opened the folding knife, the Damascus pattern and the texture made of the fragments complementing each other.
"I will cut off the dragon's feet and chew its flesh," he said softly, but to Xia Mi's ears, it sounded like a resounding bell.
"So that they may not return in the morning, nor lie down at night."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Mi felt a chill suddenly rise in her heart.
Her strength was the weakest among her siblings, and due to some problems during her long slumber, her current strength has not reached its peak.
Oh no! She turned to leave.
But in the next instant, everything around them froze.
Angers slowly walked over, cleverly concealing the incantation of his words within those few lines of poetry, all to catch his opponent off guard.
Bright red, warm liquid flowed down his cheeks, and it seemed that blood was slowly seeping from the wounds all over his body.
He dared not be careless in the face of someone who might be a first-generation being.
To prevent the previous failure of his Word of Power from happening again, he had pushed his domain to its maximum, which undoubtedly caused irreparable damage to his already weak body.
But he doesn't regret it.
Angers unfolded his folding knife and lifted the black robe.
Although his heart trembled slightly upon seeing that face, he ultimately showed no mercy and slashed the other man's brow with his folding knife, piercing into the hole.
Blood splattered out, and Shi Ling's domain collapsed.
Angers and his opponent both fell to the ground at the same time.
Blood seeped from beneath the two men, mingling and slowly flowing onto the patterned bronze floor.
Meanwhile, aboard the Moniach.
Manstein paced anxiously in the command room.
Shortly after the principal entered Bronze City, the cameras stopped transmitting images, and eventually, even the communication signal was cut off.
Fortunately, the diving suits had an independent radio life monitoring system inside, which allowed them to barely sense the vital signs of everyone.
Judging from the current situation, everything is fine.
"Professor! Something's happened!" someone shouted in the command center.
Everything's fine? Not at all!
Manstein cursed under his breath. He rushed to the man's screen, and his heart nearly stopped when he saw the data displayed on it.
Just now, Principal Angers' vital signs plummeted!
