Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei Doesn’t Want to Become a Night City Legend

Chapter 248 Jormungandr Never Drops the Chain
If you say something, just do it.

Of course, it wasn't that they planned to rush in and settle scores with Odin, since none of the three knew the extent of Odin's strength.

but--

"Do not worry."

Xia Mi placed her hand on her forehead and said confidently.

"I am the Dragon King."

"While you shouldn't rely on me during battles, I can still handle things like 'perception'."

"I can tell you with certainty that there is no Dragon King in the vicinity of Fuzhou at present."

The girl patted her chest and assured him that Xia Mi, who called herself the Dragon King, looked more and more pitiful than ever to Lu Mingfei, even though it should have been the truth.

Chu Zihang, however, had no doubts and nodded seriously.

Dragons seem to be creatures with very sensitive perception, able to clearly convey different emotions, so she immediately stepped forward and hugged Chu Zihang's arm, making faces at Lu Mingfei.

Lu Mingfei recalled his dream in Night City.

"Senior brother, don't become the kind of person who gets caught by his wife even if he goes to a hotel with another man in the middle of the night."

"Ok?"

Regardless of whether the three of them intended to go to the overpass.

Of the three, Xia Mi is a bit of a procrastinator. This is not her fault; it's a habit of dragons. They are immortal creatures, and most things can be postponed. So even though she recovered some strength early on, she hasn't made any effective efforts so far. Instead, she's like a homebody, engrossed in anime.

However, Chu Zihang and Lu Mingfei in his mercenary form were both decisive and efficient people. The three of them drove their black sedan directly towards the overpass.

【Tick-tock】

It's been raining in Fuzhou for the past few days.

Rain splashed onto the car window, creating a scattering effect. At the very edges, the fine droplets were blown away and smoothed out by the wind, quickly forming a thin, invisible film.

The dark sky pressed down, and Chu Zihang's aura became noticeably heavier.

Xia Mi, on the other hand, did not seem nervous at all.

She wasn't lying.

There is no trace of the Dragon King in Fuzhou.

The so-called "Nibelungen" is a "realm," a different space from the real space.

Although it is convenient, any changes to Nibelungen, such as 'moving', 'expanding', or 'turning on/off', require the presence of the Dragon King himself.

“Nibelungen is not a convenient thing; it is merely a symbol of ‘royal power,’ a piece of royal land. Basically, except for the ‘Lord of the Sea and Water,’ all the dragon kings’ Nibelungen are fixed. For example, the Bronze City you’ve seen has always been there.”

Click.

Xia Mi pulled out potato chips from the travel bag in the back seat of the car and ate them elegantly. "However, some kings also take shortcuts. For example, I will directly move to Nibelungen by changing the surrounding land and moving along with the [space].

“The Bronze City is actually the same. Although it looks immovable, it has actually been refined into an alchemical creation by Norton himself. In Chinese terms, it has a ‘spirit’.” As she said this, Xia Mi glanced at Lu Mingfei for some reason.

And then there's the topic of weapons.
This time, Xia Mi and Lu Mingfei's actions were relatively secretive.

The 'Kusanagi Sword' obtained from the White King was given to Mai Shude, who instructed the healer team to use their connections to quickly forge it into a usable alchemical weapon.

That one is temporarily unusable.

But he did bring other weapons.
call--------

As the traffic flowed by, Chu Zihang knew this road like the back of his hand, and soon arrived at the overpass he remembered.

Lu Mingfei confirmed his memory.

No problem, this is the road.

However, the number of the viaduct will only be revealed later.

The non-existent Bridge Zero.

Number zero?
Lu Mingfei recalled Lu Mingze from his memories, no, 'himself's' past.

Even without a tangible sense of the past, when one is used as a test subject, the feeling of being ravaged still feels like a coincidence. A pool of accumulated water is broken, and the surrounding traffic dwindles—Fuzhou experiences frequent plum rains during this season, occasionally accompanied by unexpected strong winds.

The windshield wipers scrambled a fan shape across the windshield, only to be instantly swallowed up again by the spiderweb-like stream of water.

The rain was heavier than expected.

However, after 10 years, typhoon forecasting should have become more accurate by now, and such strong winds are really unusual.

"Are you sure it's okay, Xia Mi?"

"it's okay no problem!"

The comedy is presented in three parts, with Xia Mi trying hard to maintain a smile, but her body is already sitting up straight.

"But the element was more concentrated than expected."

The forced smile was slowly melting away.

"...That doesn't make sense. Such a sudden strong wind could definitely be the power of words or that guy's authority."

"That guy is the one-eyed god in my senior brother's memories, the one who imitated Odin?"

"The Dragon King does occasionally give himself a name that is then misused in mythology. Odin is indeed a figure who appeared in the ancient war—but he has nothing to do with that guy, the King of the Sky and Wind."

Xia Mi gave him a look that said, "But for convenience, we can call him Odin. This guy... what method did he use? Did he automatically trigger alchemy? He is indeed the most skilled alchemist besides Norton. But... this level..."

boom!
Suddenly, the car shook as if it had hit something.

Chu Zihang's expression was stern, while Lu Mingfei remained calm and quickly scanned his surroundings.

Xia Mi wasn't the only one capable of observing elements.

"This cannot be explained by 'alchemy'."

Lu Mingfei tested the 'feel'.

The power of words was thwarted.

Just like the one in [Bronze City].

"Hey."

"Huh!!!"

Xia Mi let out a sharp scream and sat up straight, cold sweat pouring down her back.

"Yes! Yes! That report."

The woman forced a smile. "Now, well, it seems we've really entered the Nibelungen."

This guy!!!
"No! I'm serious! I'm really not lying! Believe me!!!"

He could almost picture Amamiya Sora's scream in his mind. Lu Mingfei shook off Xia Mi. Putting aside the fact that this female dragon king was completely unreliable, he believed that Xia Mi was indeed not lying.

Odin did something unusual.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! ——! ————————

The wind whipped the car around, and soon the sounds of collisions became more frequent.

these are.
The monster that had appeared countless times in his memory returned to Chu Zihang's side. The veins on the back of his hand gripping the steering wheel bulged, and his golden eyes lit up involuntarily.

However, unlike last time, he has changed.

He was not the child who could only escape monsters and abandon his father to run away.

And
"I haven't sensed the Dragon King's presence yet, but there are more Dead Servants than I expected."

Lu Mingfei gently patted Chu Zihang's shoulder, signaling him to calm down.

At the same time, those golden eyes, even more intense and dazzling than Chu Zihang's, looked ahead.

"Don't worry, brother."

"I'm here this time."
