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

Chapter 273 Unraveling the Mystery
Lu Mingfei and his group did not actually have a means of transportation to go deep into Siberia. The vehicle they stole from Beowulf would not work, as it would be too conspicuous.

The group changed their vehicles several times along the way, used their magical abilities to infiltrate Siberia, and then, based on the coordinates given by Chu Tianjiao, arrived near the Barents Sea.

But once you get there, all that's left is to search for a needle in a haystack.

Chu Tianjiao was also kept in the dark by his superiors. He had more contact with people than the average executive bureau member, but it was nowhere near as high as Angers's level.

Without specific coordinates, a normal person can only guess.

Fortunately, Lu Mingfei and his group were no ordinary people.

"Can you feel it?"

"Ah."

Inside the car, Chu Zihang and Lu Mingfei exchanged glances and nodded. "Xia Mi also said she sensed it. Shall we drive straight that way?"

“Be careful—I’d like to say that, but correspondingly, I haven’t sensed Odin’s presence.”

What Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang were discussing was, of course, the elemental disturbances in 'Nibelungen' within this Siberian region, which they sensed after scaling their perception, which was now almost indistinguishable from that of the dragon race.

To reiterate, Nibelungen has points of contact with reality, and therefore, if they wish, they can find ways to actively enter Nibelungen.

However, the problem now facing everyone is—

How to get there, and how many people will be going?

Previously, there had been extensive discussions among the group, who believed that the Laurent and Gattuso families on the board of directors were highly suspicious, and if possible, they wanted to investigate both families simultaneously.

However, the school board is now heavily guarded, and Odin alone is enough to suppress Lu Mingfei and Xia Mi, the two strongest fighters on this side, at the same time. Once the two are separated, they will only be courting death.

Therefore, their compromise was to abandon the simultaneous advance and instead focus on the coordinates [Siberia] provided by Chu Tianjiao, to find the 'meeting point' prepared by Principal Angers and the school board he cooperated with for Chu Tianjiao, a super S-class hybrid.

Ideally, you could find the missing Principal Angers here; finding out the identity of the board of directors who collaborated with him would also be good; at the very least, you could figure out what the principal was researching behind everyone's back.

So, the remaining issue is personnel allocation.

Lu Mingfei and Xia Mi are confirmed, but Jiu Demai and Chu Tianjiao are not.
"I'm not going."

"Sake Virtue Mai said."

“If this is the Nibelungen outside the real world, then someone has to keep watch.” She glanced at Chu Tianjiao, this forty-year-old man who looked even more haggard than his peers. After being tormented by Odin for several years, it was normal for him to be malnourished.

But during this escape, he was surprised to find that after his physical strength recovered, he was even stronger than before he was alive.

According to him, Odin may have once granted him power, transforming him from an ordinary S-class hybrid into a humanoid dragon king. Even now, after all his equipment and authority have been stripped away, he still retains some power.

“The young lady and I will guard the outside.” Chu Tianjiao nodded, then grinned when he saw his son’s worried look. “Haha! I never thought that after sleeping for several years, I would still have such a beautiful young lady fighting alongside me. It’s really—Son, don’t look at me like that.”

Having received Chu Zihang's cold gaze as he wished, Chu Tianjiao said resentfully.

Perhaps hybrids are all bad at handling offspring relationships—a trait inherited from the Black King.

Arctic Ocean, Barents Sea, Franz Joseph Land archipelago.

This vast archipelago consists of 150 islands, with a combined area of ​​over 10,000 square kilometers, and belongs to Russia. There are no permanent residents on the islands, but there are scientific research stations left over from the Soviet era.

In previous summers, Arctic cruise ships laden with tourists would dock at this port. Passengers would be allowed to disembark on the archipelago, trek with a guide, breathe in the refreshing sea breeze, admire the unique vegetation of the Arctic region, and, if lucky, see fields of Arctic poppies, their petals reflecting light like mirrors when in full bloom.

When Lu Mingfei and the others arrived, all they could see was the vast expanse of white ice in the distance, with the bright sun hanging low on the horizon.

The world before my eyes is like a rough, uneven mirror, where light and shadow are distorted, making my eyes sore and painful. If I don't rub them vigorously, it will only cause me pain.

Lu Mingfei and his group "borrowed" a bunch of snowmobiles through special channels, intending to use them to reach their destination.

Whoosh! ——————

The moment the storm front made contact, it truly felt like a wall of snow slamming into your face. At that moment, only swirling snow and wind remained, as if the entire world was trembling in this blizzard, and the mournful wind seemed to carry the roars of ancient beasts or angry souls.

Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang were companions, but in reality, it was a trio of Lu Mingfei, Chu Zihang, and Xia Mi. At this point, Xia Mi could still joke that the main characters should be two men and one woman to make it interesting, preferably with the kind of deep bond between the two men, the kind of heavy bond where even if one of them became a rogue ninja, the other would fight to the death to win him back.

Who is she implying, you stinking woman?

In short, with the combined senses of Lu Mingfei and Xia Mi, they quickly arrived at their destination.

The rich elements gathered on this peninsula are truly magnificent.

However, precisely because it was so concentrated, Lu Mingfei and Xia Mi rode their snowmobiles in circles for a long time without finding the specific "point."

This is unscientific. You should know that Xia Mi has the power to control the flow of power. Given time, she could even smash the Nibelungen with her bare hands.

unless
"There are no [points] in this field!"

Chu Zihang was speechless amidst the swirling white snow, so he could only shout with his head down.

"This is a massive alchemical matrix! Its purpose is to prevent outsiders from entering! And it's incredibly sophisticated; it's definitely not something humans could use!"

"If you want to get in, what you need to find is not the [door], but the [path]."

Although Xia Mi didn't know much about alchemy, she still offered advice.

"It is a type that can only be entered by following a certain sequence of paths."

In the distance, signal lights flickered faintly in the wind and snow.

"But how do we know the order?"

Lu Mingfei also had a headache.

He doesn't know any alchemists.

Lu Mingfei stopped and tried to draw down the map of his surroundings and the routes he had taken, including the most prominent points and sections of road.

With Xia Mi's corrections, a picture was quickly completed.

The overall shape is circular, but inside the circle are countless overlapping circles, and within the circle are triangles and rhombuses intersecting, neat, symmetrical, and simple in structure, yet incredibly complex.

"Actually, judging from the question itself, this should be an introductory question. Human alchemists should be able to solve it."

"Then you can?"

Lu Mingfei: "."

Xia Mi: “.”

After a while, Xia Mi said.

"To be honest, it's not that I don't know alchemy, it's that there's no need for me to learn it." Xia Mi's face was so dark that her expression was unreadable, but her calm sophistry continued, "After all, whether it's alchemy or Word of Power, I can just use my Power to deal with it directly, there's no need to learn it at all, ah, how about we do it this way? Although it might alert the enemy a bit, it's okay, right? After all, we're so strong."

Lu Mingfei: "."

Xia Mi: “.”

This time, it was Lu Mingfei who spoke.

"Useless Dragon King".

"Aaaaaah!!!! You said it!!! You said something I absolutely shouldn't have said!!!" Xia Mi quickly grabbed Lu Mingfei by the collar. Although it was Chu Zihang's face, tears were already glistening in her eyes. She shook Lu Mingfei back and forth in a very girlish way, "Apologize! Apologize to me right now!!!"

In the snow and ice, the two men (?) who continued to bicker and fight were ultimately destined to freeze to death.

So, what should we do?
