Chapter 401 The Gattuso Family's Humiliating Compensation [Seeking Monthly Tickets]

"You...you killed Odin?"

Lu Mingfei, Chen Motong, Caesar, and Chu Zihang stared in shock at Chen Hong's heroic figure, their mouths agape in disbelief.

Lu Mingfei looked at Chen Hong with a sense of admiration, seeing his posture as if he were stepping on a dragon king and living a life of utter loneliness, as if he were seeing his dream self in him.

Chen Motong looked at the powerful man before him, who surpassed all other men in the world and stood at the pinnacle of the Dragon Slayer Legend, his eyes shining with interest.

If she had such power, she wouldn't be at the mercy of that disgusting Chen family, right?
Caesar looked at the peerless genius, whose figure was now completely out of sight and who had left him far behind, with a complex expression of admiration and melancholy.

He was a man whose lifelong pursuit was the glory of slaying dragons, but only when he faced the Dragon King could he feel his own insignificance.

Only when you witness Chen Hong slaying the dragon with your own eyes can you truly appreciate the vast difference between him and the others—it's like heaven and earth.

This made it difficult for Caesar to even muster the will to catch up; the gap was simply too large.

Chu Zihang looked at Chen Hong's retreating figure with a mixture of gratitude and confusion.

He was grateful that Chen Hong helped him kill Odin, avenging his father's death on the overpass in the rainy night.

What's confusing is that I still have many unanswered questions about my father: the secrets about him, his whereabouts, and whether there's any possibility of his return.

After Chen Hong finished processing Odin and confirmed that he had eliminated all of Odin's backup plans by following the causal chain, and that Odin would not be resurrected, he...

Ignoring these so-called main characters, Chen Hong drifted away gracefully, quite dashingly.

The two sides are no longer from the same world; the gap between them is too great.

Besides, he might even become enemies with Kassel College and the half-blood family, so there was no need to add any more unnecessary complications.

Chen Hong left just like that, completely leaving Kassel College.

Odin is the power half of the king of the sky and wind. After completely devouring and absorbing Odin, Chen Hong began to search for the force half of the king of the sky and wind.

This refers to Li Wuyue, the younger brother of Li Yuanhao, the founding emperor of Western Xia. In human form, he was active in the Western Xia Dynasty under the name Weiming Wuyue.

This guy even caused the "Summer Mourning" incident in modern times.

Around 1900, Li Wuyue led his Dragon Servants in an attack on the Secret Society's stronghold, causing heavy casualties, including members of the first generation of the Lionheart Society. This incident directly led to the death of Menek Cassel, who perished alongside him. He later achieved rebirth through cocooning by committing suicide.

In other words, Li Wuyue is the dragon king that Angers hates the most. It was this guy who made Angers lose everything overnight and embark on the path of revenge and dragon slaying.

In 2025, this guy will still be leading the Dragon Guard Legion to attack Cassel Manor, lively and energetic, showing no signs of dying.

Because this guy, like Odin, also wants to usurp the Black King's power and become the new Black King through the path to godhood and the path to the underworld.

So whenever it encounters danger, it decisively commits suicide, destroys its body, re-cocoons, and waits to be resurrected and return.

It was precisely because of this caution that he was not devoured alive by Odin, that cunning old fox.

Chen Hong used the World Tree system to locate Li Wuyue and teleported there.

Without saying a word, he killed him outright with overwhelming power.

They found his hidden cocoon and destroyed it.

After devouring and refining Li Wuyue's dragon bone cross.

Chen Hong has completely obtained the status and authority of the King of the Sky and the Wind, possessing perfect power and influence.

Upon learning that Chen Hong had completely killed Li Wuyue, Angers's favorability towards Chen Hong instantly soared.

Therefore, the secret party strongly supported Chen Hong, praising him as a true dragon-slaying hero.

This led to some conflicts between the mixed-race families and Angers.

The ambitious Gattuso family, in particular, coveted the valuable possessions that Chen Hong had acquired.

Some even considered using space-based weapons to kill Chen Hong, this monstrous powerhouse who, despite being human, had repeatedly slaughtered dragon kings, in order to obtain the rare dragon king bloodline and dragon bone cross from Chen Hong's corpse.

Faced with these ignorant ants, Chen Hong flew out of Earth without saying a word and chopped all of the Gattuso family's satellites to smithereens with a single slash.

What kind of class do you think you are to be my enemy?

All mixed-race families around the world have shut up.

The Gattuso family suffered heavy losses, and their proud space-based weapon, which they claimed could slay dragons, was rendered useless.

They were forced to sign an unequal contract in a humiliating manner, and were compensated with 300 billion beautiful coins, countless rare alchemical materials, and countless cutting-edge research data.

They also have to pay tribute to Chen Hong every year, compensating him with 80 billion beautiful coins, as well as countless rare minerals, medicinal herbs, and medicines.

It can be said that the humiliation was extreme. The Gattuso family was humiliated and had to endure it.

Who told them to be the first to stick their neck out?

As for the losses, Pompeii shared them with several colluding mixed-race families. After all, these mixed-race people controlled the global economic lifeline, secretly ruled countless countries, and were the unsung masters of this planet; they lacked nothing in terms of wealth and material possessions.

Pompeii had no choice but to continue to lie low and bide its time, avoiding Chen Hong's sharp edge.

After dealing with these clowns, Chen Hong and Xia Mi went into seclusion and began to explore all the Words of Power of the Sky and the Wind King.

【Word of Power - Yin Flow: The caster controls the direction of wind flow over a large area, centered on themselves.

The releaser can construct extremely fine but extremely powerful airflow channels at will, which are called "yin flow".

The Yin Liu itself has no extraordinary killing power, but if the user puts aerodynamic miniature blades into the airflow channel, these blades will be accelerated to incredible speeds, producing amazing killing power.

This power of speech has extremely precise and subtle control over the air, and can control multiple airflow channels simultaneously. When there are enough blades, this power of speech can create a storm of metal.

The flaw of this incantation lies in the fact that because it uses airflow to propel the blade, the blade must be thin and light. Such blades are ineffective against targets with hardened, solidified incantations, or those protected by strong armor.

This attack based on the theory of words was relatively weak, but Chen Hong grasped its essence, which was the control of air and the construction of airflow channels.

It can be used not only for attacks, but also for supplying oxygen, eavesdropping, and causing disturbances.

【Word of Power - Kamaitachi: The caster creates a large domain centered on himself, establishing complex sound channels within the domain, thereby gaining control over all the subtle sounds within the domain.

The purer the releaser's bloodline, the wider the domain. It is said that with the help of this speech spirit, the ancient dragon can listen to the whispers of humans in the nine heavens.

With the invention of precision firearms, the practicality of this spell has been greatly enhanced. A skilled marksman paired with a Kamaitachi makes every bullet seem to carry a radar.

As a supplementary form of speech, it is quite safe, with only two risks: one is that being overly sensitive to sound can easily lead to insomnia, neurasthenia, or even further induce hallucinations.

Secondly, if a loud noise occurs within the Kamaitachi's territory, it will cause serious and severe damage to the ears and brain structure of the person who releases it.

The naming principle is based on the "Kamaitachi," a yokai (supernatural creature) from Japanese mythology. This is a small yokai that controls wind magic; in some Japanese dialects, a small whirlwind is also called a Kamaitachi.

It's clear that the Kamaitachi is somewhat like someone with super hearing, which can be used to assist in detecting and receiving sounds, helping it to find enemies and launch precise attacks.

【Word of Power - Vampire Scythe: Some Words of Power have the potential to evolve, and "Kamaitachi" is one of them.

The caster's control over the wind has been further enhanced, turning the air into rapidly spinning fragments, as if countless invisible boomerangs were flying within the domain.

The releaser has difficulty controlling the flight angle of each individual air fragment, but can control countless air fragments simultaneously.

This advanced Word of Power can be understood as a whirlwind carrying invisible blades, emanating from the caster.

Its range is moderate, unable to create tornado-level rotating airflow, and unable to penetrate heavy protection.

However, due to the high density of air debris, it would be fatal if even one aorta were exposed. Once a major blood vessel is injured, blood will be continuously carried away by the airflow.

The density of air debris could even bring down a volley of crossbow bolts.

The "Kamaitachi" still has the effect of collecting sound, but its efficiency will be reduced. The "Blood-Drinking True Scythe" focuses more on killing.

The naming principle is still based on Japanese mythology, where the Kamaitachi, a wind spirit, hides in the wind and secretly sucks the blood of travelers.

The wounds inflicted by the Vampire Scythe do indeed cause continuous bleeding, but in reality, this blood cannot be considered absorbed and provides no nutritional or restorative benefits to the caster.

Word of Power: Vampire Scythe is an advanced version of Word of Power: Kamaitachi. It possesses attack power and can manipulate rotating airflow fragments to continuously bleed the enemy.

【Word of Power - Dustless Land: The caster creates a huge force field centered on himself, with high-speed airflow flowing across the surface of the force field, forming something similar to a "barrier".

As the caster's abilities improve, this barrier can not only withstand bullets and flames, but also allow one to survive a fall from a skyscraper, as the airflow provides sufficient cushioning.

These are usually considered defensive incantations, but there have also been instances where the caster used their domain to forcefully crush the opponent and turn them into fragments in a bloody battle.

With the help of this incantation, one can even briefly float in the air, but considering the issues of movement speed and support time, this ability is not very useful on the battlefield.

The releaser can allow other people or objects to enter his territory without harm, and this defense can be shared.

Its discoverer and namer was an ancient high monk who firmly believed it to be a Buddhist supernatural power, and thus called it "Pure Land of Immaculate Purity" in Buddhist terminology.

The Avatamsaka Sutra states: "The second stage of Bodhisattva Mahasattva's purity is where Bodhisattvas dwell, and they often become holy kings who transmigrate through the cycle of rebirth."

This implies that the area is like a Bodhisattva's abode, unaffected by evil spirits. However, in reality, it can only defend against physical attacks and is powerless against mental harm.

【Word Spirit - Crystal Brahma City: Some Word Spirits have the potential to evolve, and "Pure Land of Immaculate Purity" is one of them. The caster's control over the wind is further enhanced.

When the domain of the Lapis Lazuli Brahma City opens, the airflow on the surface of the domain will solidify and crystallize, which is something that physics cannot explain.

High-level defensive incantations are more effective than the Pure Land of Immaculate Purification.

In short, Word of Power: Dustless Land is a defensive air domain that can withstand attacks and repel anything within the domain other than air, such as seawater.

The Word Spirit: Glazed Brahma City is an advanced version of the Word Spirit: Dustless Land. The airflow on the surface of the domain is strengthened to the point of solidification and crystallization, making it more defensive than the Word Spirit: Dustless Land.
