Chapter 284 Breaking in
"Begin the arrests."

Lu Lincheng said.

How could he not sense the affection that Jovie had for Lu Mingfei?

Just as Lu Mingfei guessed, the parents had a serious disagreement about whether Lu Mingfei was their child.

(To be honest, Mingfei.)
(When I found out you were Zero.)

(I am very disappointed.)
Lu Lincheng is a semi-scientist, and he cannot accept that his child has someone else's soul inside him.

That wasn't the soul he and Giovanni gave it, so it was meaningless.

That's not their child.

He was just an 'outsider'.

"Deploy Hellhounds, the anti-terrorism squad, and then have the Gattuso family unseal [that]."

Lu Lincheng had been working hard to keep Qiao Wenni at peace, and also to prevent Lu Mingfei from struggling too much and causing damage to the safe haven. After all, Lu Mingfei now had the strength of the original 'Zero', so he had to deal with him with full force and caution.

The good news is
Now, we don't need the Rhine anymore.

Lu Mingfei was trying to navigate through the streets and alleys to reach Lu Mingze's location.

But today is Christmas, and all you can see is the dazzling glow of lights and decorations, while a blizzard mixed with snow stings your face.

Those who went out gradually melted away with happiness on their faces; the residents of this night city had 'awakened'.

The city is full of super hybrids, and everyone is a born warrior. They have indeed received corresponding training. Lu Mingfei can clearly feel the oppressive atmosphere. Take Night City as an example. Everyone here is an elite mercenary, like David Martinez without his cybernetic suit.

At the same time, Lu Mingfei could also hear dog barking, dense and loud.

Here, Lu Mingfei also inquired about the armed forces of the city, which was leading the hybrid race world.

The barking of these dogs is one branch of the problem.

Lu Mingfei had previously considered that since dragons surpassed humans in every aspect, there was no need to limit themselves to hybrids. In terms of combat power alone, hybridization with powerful wild beasts was definitely more advantageous. At least, as war consumables, it was cheaper, more effective, and risk-free.

This city clearly adopted this idea, searching for as many creatures as possible within the Siberian sphere and then conducting dragon blood research on them.

The source of this barking is the "Hellhound," a type of biological weapon.

A hybrid of a dog and a dragon, it possesses a rather bloodthirsty nature, essentially a fully amplified wolfhound.

Lu Mingfei stood downwind in a corner of the city, peering into the shadows at the canine tribe.

They are enormous, comparable in size to lions and tigers, with golden eyes tinged with scarlet. They move forward while sniffing, the scent of humans particularly clear to their olfactory nerves. Polar bears can smell human scents from a kilometer away, and hellhounds' sense of smell is even stronger than that of polar bears; they know their prey is not far away.

Lu Mingfei could easily kill them, but he was too lazy to do so.

He leaped and darted through the shadows of the city, quickly making his way to his destination.

Even though the hellhounds have the best sense of smell, they can never keep up with Lu Mingfei's speed, even though he hasn't activated his Word of Power and magnetic field rotation yet.

He kept getting closer to his destination, and his defenses indeed became stronger as a result.

Lu Mingfei now understood a little more—why Lu Lincheng told him Lu Mingze's location so that he could place a large force there without distraction.

Lu Mingfei surveyed the area. As a professional mercenary, he would divide the mission location into different areas and find intrusion channels in advance.

The area where Lu Mingze is located is a circular building, similar in shape to the Bird's Nest Stadium, with twelve entrances. However, the passageways corresponding to each entrance are very narrow, which is probably intentionally designed to restrict entry and exit.

A direct assault would be ineffective; the building itself is a massive alchemical matrix, made of incredibly hard materials, unlikely to collapse even under missile barrage. Normally, even infiltration wouldn't be possible.

But
【Buzz! ————————————】

Suddenly, the entire city transformed from the peaceful atmosphere of Christmas, with its dazzling lights, into a monotonous red.

The flashing red light symbolized a danger signal, and all the residents instantly looked at the building at the highest point and the red light flashing and rotating above it. The next moment, a broadcast rang out throughout the city, reaching everyone's ears.

Suspect Lu Mingfei has been confirmed to have escaped.

Counter-terrorism forces have been deployed; residents are advised to stay indoors.

A calm, electronic female voice echoed throughout the city, and Lu Mingfei was forced to hear his own name.

"Now you're really famous."

Lu Mingfei thought to himself, "If that's the case, Xia Mi should have heard the sound by now. I'll have to ask them to speed things up."

Should we stall for time first?
Just as he was thinking this, several pairs of eyes suddenly locked onto him.

Even though I concealed my presence enough, how could I still be discovered so easily?
It's not surprising, after all, the city is full of surveillance cameras. Lu Mingfei avoided all the cameras, so we can use the process of elimination to figure out the areas where he could appear. For the rest, we can use infrared scanning to determine his location.

However, the visitor was exactly as expected.

Lu Mingfei looked at those beings with golden and red eyes surrounding him and felt it was only natural.

This perfect city received genes from all sides, including the white dragon blood of Uesugi Koshi, which was given to Dr. Herzog, as well as the blood of the world-renowned Beowulf clan.

The Beowulf clan has an unusual bloodline ratio, which is why their golden eyes always appear red. However, the problem is that although they are irritable and violent, they are still not out of control. A sense of mission binds their souls—this is how they explain it to themselves. Scientists are more inclined to believe that the Beowulf family's genes have mutated, allowing them to achieve a balance with the transcendent dragon blood in a short period of time.

Lu Mingfei likened the Beowulf family to a terrorist mobile unit.

So how could this city of night be without them?

Scanning the entire room, Lu Mingfei recognized their faces.

Although the city is full of handsome men and beautiful women, they each have their own unique characteristics. For example, the slender woman at the front, whose name seems to be something like "Zhorkina," has a similar appearance, but her temperament is completely different.

Golden hair and emerald eyes.

It looks really
Ok?
"Have we met somewhere?"

Lu Mingfei asked the girl, who replied with a bright smile, "If it weren't for this situation, I would be happy to accept your advances."

With that, two blades shot out from her slender, fair arm.

Yes.

It's a pop-up.

It is curved, narrow, and exceptionally sharp, resembling the foreleg of a praying mantis.

Lu Mingfei also drew a long-handled Han sword from somewhere behind him, and they faced off.

Forget it.

You'll know once you've played it.
