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

Chapter 301: Change of Position
Erii's consciousness was interrupted for a moment.

Caesar's battle plan was near perfect, but even the most perfect plan, after much brainstorming, will ultimately be crushed by pure numerical data.

The saying "great strength makes bricks fly" perfectly illustrates this.

If it is confirmed that the enemy is a single individual, it is generally reasonable to rule out the possibility that the enemy will directly target the sniper for a headshot.

But Odin was different.

The King of the Sky and the Wind is far superior in both target acquisition and speed.

Within seconds, even though Erii tried her best to buy time, Odin still got close to her face.

In a mere instant, her head will be ripped off.

The killing intent was so clear that even Erii, who was naive, could understand it. Unlike the battle between Caesar and Odin, Odin would not hesitate to take action against others.

Death was clearly approaching. In the last second before her consciousness plunged into darkness, Erii remembered the conversation she had with the girl named 'Zero' before the battle began.

"I'm only going to say it once."

The girl's petite body was secured to the seat by the seatbelt, her pale skin appearing particularly cold in the sunlight. The gusts of air constantly tossed her long hair, the strands flying wildly in the wind, occasionally revealing the faint blue veins on the back of her neck.

The vibrations in the cabin made her eyelashes tremble slightly, but her gray-blue eyes remained calmly fixed on the clouds outside the porthole, her expression indifferent.

"Caesar's plan has clear flaws, or rather, uncompromising aspects. In terms of danger, you will undoubtedly be targeted."

【? 】

Erii raised the board, then tilted her head, her long red hair falling to one side.

Zero glanced at the question mark, understood that Erii didn't understand, then turned back and thought for a while.

"It means that if you continue to carry out the plan like this, you will die."

【. 】

Erii didn't speak; she wasn't used to speaking, but her actions could speak for themselves.

She unbuckled her seatbelt and began to sneakily crawl in another direction.

Erii doesn't want to die.

Although this simple-minded child has a kind heart, she would still honestly refuse if told "you will die" for no reason.

"However, if we don't go, Lu Mingfei's goal cannot be achieved."

Erii paused in her backward crawling motion.

"Of course, it's not certain that you will die. I will try my best to restrain Odin. There is probably a 10% or 20% chance that I can hold him off and prevent him from causing you trouble."

"It's very dangerous, I won't deny that, but correspondingly, the rewards are also great."

"I made a promise with that person to be useful to each other. You did too, right? If he hadn't interfered in your life, I'm afraid I'd be used as an experimental animal until you died, wouldn't you?"

Zero said a lot, which is unusual for him.

But at the same time, she is also very ruthless. If this girl is for Lu Mingfei, she will say anything, no matter how outrageous it is, even if it is to persuade someone to jump off a cliff.

【.】

Erii sat back down.

I'll die—no way.

For Lu Mingfei's actions—go.

Because Lu Ming died without taking action.
Erii sat down somewhat restlessly. Well, actually, you couldn't tell she was restless; the child had no expression.

"However, well, after all, you're not that person's subordinate. So, it's not fair to ask you to give your life for him directly."

Ling said casually.

"So, remember these words as a way to put your mind at ease before you die."

That's what the girl with long platinum blonde hair said.

He will come. Caesar's plan is essentially to buy time, and he believes Lu Mingfei understands this.

Therefore, all he can do is stall for time as much as possible, and if necessary, he will...

scandium--!----!--!--------

The air burst into cone-shaped plumes of white mist as he surged forward through Pompeii. His figure, breaking the sound barrier, hurtled towards Erii within a meter of her, accompanied by a shrill, atmospheric distortion.

—Until a long sword slashed out from the side.

A tremendous crash resounded through the heavens and earth as the blades clashed head-on with the dragon's skeleton. Space seemed to be compressed into a thin sheet, pulling both sides in opposite directions!

The boy blocking Pompeii's path had his arm muscles constantly shifting between relaxation and tension, his sneakers leaving two scorching marks on the ground.

Erii's crimson hair was violently flung backward by the shockwave.

The strands of hair first stood upright as if electrocuted, then spread out in a fan shape in the air currents, fluttering around her face like maple leaves being blown away.

She slightly widened her eyes—reflecting the boy in her glassy pupils was the familiar figure of Lu Mingfei.

Startled, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her pale pink lips unconsciously parted slightly.

A layer of misty moisture rose in her eyes, like sunlight suddenly piercing through a frozen lake. In that instant, surprise and some deeper emotion intertwined in her eyes, trembling fragilely and vividly in the wind.

However, unlike the emotionally rich Erii, Pompeii was completely bewildered.

".impossible!"

Pompeii wrestled with the seven deadly sins that Lu Mingfei had pulled out, and then let out a cruel laugh.

how is this possible.

Pompeii's plan was full of contradictions, even his gentleness towards Caesar, but there was only one bottom line.

That is—to separate Lu Mingfei and Caesar, or rather, to divide the combat forces under Lu Mingfei's command into two parts.

There are two reasons. First, although Lu Mingfei himself can no longer threaten Pompeii, if they cooperate and intend to fight with their numerical advantage, there will indeed be a slight threat, and Pompeii wants to eliminate this 'slight' probability.

Secondly, Pompeii was somewhat afraid that if Caesar and Lu Mingfei were together, his inability to deal a heavy blow to Caesar would lead to unpredictable consequences.
For example, Caesar rushing out to help Lu Mingfei take a hit.

Although they are two grown men, I always felt they were capable of doing it.

That's why he used so many resources to keep Lu Mingfei away from him, and even in the worst-case scenario, to give him a safe haven and spare his life.

These were all compromises he made, just to pull it away from the future.

But now... what exactly is this—

"Hmph, failing to take down the strategist Xia Mi on the overpass was your biggest mistake! You damn bastard!"

Before Pompeii could think any further, a dark figure appeared beside him.

A woman with long, jet-black hair, both sharp and alluring, suddenly appeared from the side, wielding a white longsword and slashing at Pompeii!
Pompeii's intuition told him that he couldn't withstand the blow, so he jumped backward in an instant.

And he also got a clear look at the other person's face.

Chu Zihang.

No, it should be said that it is Jormungandr inside Chu Zihang's body.

Behind Lu Mingfei, people keep emerging.

On the ruins where the smoke of battle had not yet dissipated, the air suddenly seemed to freeze.

Behind the twisted steel walls—Caesar, dressed in leather, leaps from the top of the burning brick and tile ruins.

Zero walked slowly, slightly tightening his grip on the two pistols in his hands.

Fingel slung the long sword over his shoulder and finally smiled.

All the forces that Kassel could mobilize—no, all the forces that Lu Mingfei could mobilize—were now surrounding Pompeii.
