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

Chapter 261 Traitor
Lu Mingfei did not immediately understand the meaning of Odin's words.

But indeed—the world doesn't revolve around one person.

Even Lu Mingfei wouldn't do.

As he defeated Odin's clone, time continued to flow quietly in the outside world.

[Buzz! ————————]

After a sharp and prolonged cry, above FZ City in the material world, it seemed as if an invisible arm had forcibly opened a rift, and several small black shadows 'squeezed' out from it.

After landing, Lu Mingfei immediately used the magnetic field rotation to complete a survey of the surrounding environment.

No threat.

Odin was indeed not near Fuzhou in the material world, nor did he set up any additional ambushes. He and his soldiers must have gone to other battlefields.

Faced with this situation, Lu Mingfei should have breathed a sigh of relief.

But for some reason, perhaps because of Odin's cryptic remark earlier, Lu Mingfei felt a sense of unease.

What exactly did Odin mean by that?
pat.

Unlike Lu Mingfei, who was considering these things, Xia Mi, who was supposed to replace Caesar as the new strategist, lay down directly. No, to be precise, Chu Zihang collapsed to the ground in a wide arc, with his father Chu Tianjiao beside him.

As expected, merging with Xia Mi was too mentally taxing for both of them.

To 'cocoon' in the mental world?
Lu Mingfei shook his head, hoisted Chu Tianjiao and his son onto his back, and took out his phone from his pocket. He intended to call Su Enxi to check the intelligence first, but unexpectedly discovered—

[Outside the circle]

"."

Something is wrong.

As Lu Mingfei was thinking this, the magnetic field he had just expanded to cover the city also detected a new signal during its expansion.

First, there was a rather strong signal rapidly approaching—it was Mai Shude. He had sent her to Fuzhou ahead of time to meet him. Her presence wasn't surprising, but her speed was a bit too fast.

and many more.

Is she running in the opposite direction from me?
Lu Mingfei frowned.

At the same time, a large amount of magnetic field signals unique to mixed-race individuals suddenly entered his mental world.

Lu Mingfei recognized them as Kassel's troops, and elite troops from the Execution Bureau—but why? His business trip to Fuzhou must have been a last-minute decision. Was it because Odin had been triggered, and the Execution Bureau sent reinforcements?
That's not incomprehensible.

Lu Mingfei settled Chu Zihang and Chu Tianjiao in, then sat down on the spot.

Since he's one of the academy's own people, there's nothing to worry about. He has quite a few wounds, so he should focus on recovering. Besides, their black sedan was also destroyed, and they'll need to hitch a ride with them later.

Just as he was thinking this, a sound of a spiraling current ripped through the sky.

Lu Mingfei looked up and saw the blinding light. The speed was relatively fast compared to a normal person's reflexes, but it was just a drone, which was no different from a snail moving at a slow speed in Lu Mingfei's eyes.

But he stared at the five-person plane until it flew low overhead.

【Snapped】

Then suddenly it opened, a black parachute unfurled, and the parachute, carrying a heavy aluminum suitcase, landed precisely a little distance from Lu Mingfei.

Lu Mingfei was also a highly elite specialist who had participated in Operation Dragon King since his freshman year, so he knew who had prepared the briefcase and the drone.

Norma

The artificial intelligence at Kassel College, the world's first super AI, often uses this method to provide weapons and other equipment to agents operating around the world.

However, Lu Mingfei doesn't need weapons, so this is most likely information or intelligence that Lu Mingfei, who is currently outside the "circle," should check immediately.

What could be in such a hurry?
Lu Mingfei's ominous premonition grew stronger. She completed the internal inspection with just a glance and then opened the briefcase.

There was a letter inside.

Run!

".ha?"

But on the other side of the world, unlike the elevated highway—

Turn back time.

[When Lu Mingfei and Xia Mi set off for Chongqing]

While Lu Mingfei was gathering intelligence, the mixed-race individuals, each with their own ulterior motives, also began to move. And at the heart of this power struggle, besides Lu Mingfei, was the figure most influencing all the stakeholders—

Hilbert Jean Angers.

After receiving Lu Mingfei's card, the old man was clearly very conflicted.

On the one hand, he felt very satisfied. For decades, in order to protect the students behind him so that they could grow up normally, he had to compromise with the board of directors time and time again. Although he could always win in words to a certain extent, he would also get tired one day.

A suitable successor is always needed.

Lu Mingfei fulfilled 95% of a successor's needs—he delighted Angers, whether in terms of his speed of growth, temperament, or anything else, he was always so outstanding.

However, there are also five percent of failures that are fatal.

That is Lu Mingfei's indifference to the matter of slaying the dragon.

He harbors no hatred towards the dragon race, his completion of tasks is limited to the 'task' itself, and he seems to be hiding many secrets.

Angers can tolerate most secrets, except
Things related to dragons.

Unfortunately, he had already parted ways with his most beloved student. He could allow Lu Mingfei to test dangerous bloodlines time and time again, and even protect students with dangerous bloodlines, but he would not allow him to protect the Dragon Clan.

He has his own methods; the only difference is that he and Lu Mingfei will be entering a 'race' phase while cooperating.

Angers decided to go out on his own to find clues and then find the next Dragon King before Lu Mingfei.

He would reveal the information—Lu Mingfei had no reason to refuse him. This time, they had to kill the Dragon King with their own hands and let the Secret Society witness this scene, no matter what the consequences might be.

Of course, there was one more thing before that.

(Why did Mingfei pressure the school board in that way?)
Angers pondered in his mind.

(Mingfei isn't the type to put pressure on people. If he's taking such a flamboyant action, it must be because he has clear doubts about the board of directors.)
【night】

As he flipped through the book in his hands, Anger's eyes flickered between light and shadow.

The file he held was titled "The Greenland Affair".

In this incident, he lost many excellent students, but at the same time, it also exposed a problem—

The school board didn't care about the students' lives, and they had intelligence privileges that surpassed those of Angers, which is why they were willing to go to any lengths to send Fingel and the best students of the time on an adventure to the deep sea.

Considering Lu Mingfei's actions, Angers had no choice but to revisit a conclusion that had been reached long ago.

That is, [there is a traitor within the school board and the Secret Society].

Regarding this matter, Lu Mingfei chose to postpone it and wait for the board of directors to contact him. However, Angers is different from Lu Mingfei; Angers has more channels and authority.

By gradually investigating upwards through the clues within the case file, the 'suspect' will eventually be found.

Now, he has someone he suspects.

The wind blew through the long white gauze curtains, and the shadows of the trees swayed on the window.

Snapped.

Inside the office, Angers closed his book.

Da da.

After a while, Angers pushed open the door and walked out of the office.

His tall figure appeared at the end of the corridor, with neatly combed white hair, a wide-striped three-piece suit, and shiny Oxford shoes.

The dark corridor was narrow and long. Angers took out his phone, and the light from just turning on the screen was enough to cut through part of the darkness.

He scrolled through his contacts, starting from the top and scrolling down—

Until it stops at that familiar name.

"I really hope it's not you."

Angers' pupils widened, and at the same time, the light from his golden eyes overshadowed the white light from the phone.

That sound just now—there were two sounds.

"Who are you--!----"
