Dragon Clan: I am Lu Mingfei, the Intelligence Strategist, the God of Concepts!
Chapter 198: The Meeting of the Four Women, the Third Dragon Pattern in the Trial, the Immortal Slau
Chapter 198 The Four Women Meet, The Third Dragon Script in the Trial, the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation (11k)
As soon as he got off the plane, Chu Zihang recognized the girl who had come to pick him up.
Wearing a simple white short-sleeved T-shirt with a cartoon bear print, paired with denim overalls, and large silver-framed pendants hanging from her ears, she had a sunny smile on her face, giving off a very approachable vibe.
Su Xiaoqiang.
"It was her..."
Chu Zihang was slightly surprised. He didn't consider himself a gossipy person. After returning to Kassel College, he had only contacted Lu Mingfei a few times and hadn't paid much attention to Lu Mingfei's romantic life. In the past two days, he hadn't been like Zero and Erii, occasionally watching Lu Mingfei's video calls.
The only time I overheard Lu Mingfei talking to Nuwa on the phone while I was in Japan was when he was asking for medicine for the head of the Uesugi family.
Of course, the two inevitably exchanged sweet nothings on the phone.
But why is Su Xiaoqiang appearing in the airport VIP channel now?
Isn't this the Zhou family's private jet?
Where is that Nuwa?
Chu Zihang's mind began to wander involuntarily...
Speaking of Su Xiaoqiang and Nuwa, what is their relationship now? Putting aside the head of the Uesugi family... what is the relationship between this girl named Zero and Lu Mingfei? And what is the relationship between the three of them?
Oh no, we might not be able to get rid of them, what about the four of them...?
Old Tang, who had been trailing behind, had quietly moved behind Chu Zihang at some point. With a strange expression, he lowered his voice and said, "Brother, don't you think the atmosphere seems a little off?"
Chu Zihang stopped making unfounded connections, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded.
At this time,
From afar, Su Xiaoqiang waved with a smile, his gaze sweeping over Lu Mingfei and the other two without stopping for a moment, finally settling on Lao Tang and Chu Zihang.
"Senior Brother Chu, Senior Brother Tang."
"Cough cough... Hello sister-in-law, hello sister-in-law... Ouch!" Old Tang suddenly grinned, his expression horrified.
Nobody pinched him.
He himself sensed that something was wrong.
How can we call it that...? But it seems we can't not call it that either...? Hmm, then what should we call it?
It only took one second.
Even the relationship guru, Lao Tang, has confused himself.
This is bad! This is really bad!
He knew that this guy's real experiences were far more complicated than what he had made up, and the beautiful girls he had met were all incredibly outrageous.
For example, the long-legged girl I met twice before, once in the underground of the Chen Family Manor and once in the underground of the Genji Heavy Industries, turned out to be true; she really did know Lu Mingfei.
For example, the female hunter in the team last time seemed alright at first glance, but compared to the loli who was clearly with her, she was a complete failure.
"Senior Brother Tang, what is this...?" Su Xiaoqiang's smile remained unchanged.
"He's probably not used to you calling him 'senior brother,' he's not Shilan's student."
Chu Zihang greeted, "Long time no see, Su Xiaoqiang."
"Yes, yes, that's right! Just call me Lao Tang, just like Mingming!"
Old Tang finally recovered and secretly gave Chu Zihang a thumbs up.
As expected of the eldest brother, he's so clever; he resolved this difficult situation by using the most neutral and unoffensive form of address...
Now is certainly not the time to take sides!
Old Tang isn't stupid.
He could tell, of course, that Mingming was probably going to suffer a lot this time.
hey-hey……
Wait, what am I laughing at?
"Okay."
Su Xiaoqiang smiled and playfully greeted, "Our Mingfei has finally decided to come back?"
"Um... haha." Lu Mingfei nodded awkwardly.
Sure enough, once they returned, everything that was supposed to come arrived immediately.
On the surface, she was talking to Lu Mingfei.
Su Xiaoqiang's gaze had already fallen on the two 'familiar' yet unfamiliar girls.
A slight smile appeared on Ling Bingliang's lips as she nodded in acknowledgment.
Erii stared blankly, then mimicked Zero's smile—Zero had specifically taught her before she left that first impressions are important when meeting new friends, and it's okay if you don't know how, just follow Zero's lead.
Su Xiaoqiang nodded with a smile, subtly withdrawing her gaze from the dark red and platinum blonde hair.
Isn't this that guy?
Hmm...that doesn't seem right either.
The further greetings were skipped.
Su Xiaoqiang took the initiative to walk ahead, saying, "Let's go to the garage first. It's not convenient for Sister Nuwa to appear in public, so she'll wait for us in the car."
"You guys go, I won't go."
Without a second's hesitation, Chu Zihang replied, "My mom is calling me home for dinner."
Old Tang also reacted instantly, adding:
"Yes, you guys go ahead. Auntie invited me to have dinner with her too."
Su Xiaoqiang almost burst out laughing, but thankfully she was walking ahead and managed to keep her voice down, saying, "Isn't Senior Brother Chu also staying at the Peacock Mansion? Since it's on the way, let's give him a ride back. We happen to have a car."
"No, we're eating out this time. You guys go back and we'll contact you later."
Chu Zihang's on-the-spot reaction was still very quick.
The main reason was that he realized the atmosphere might not be suitable for his appearance... With a few more outsiders around, they might not be able to relax, so he decided to go back and wait for the results.
Old Tang was also aware of this; he was serious about upsetting his own brother!
I've taken all the benefits for you, don't even think about using me as a shield!
While thinking, Old Tang gave Lu Mingfei a strange smile and made a handset gesture.
Lu Mingfei stared intently at the two disloyal guys, grinding his teeth.
Chu Zihang nodded slightly, his eyes encouraging.
"Row."
Su Xiaoqiang was completely oblivious to the interaction between the boys behind her, and simply nodded lightly, "See you at Peacock Mansion later."
"Yes, yes, definitely."
Chu Zihang and Lao Tang ran off in a flash, leaving only Lu Mingfei, Su Xiaoqiang, Ling, and Erii in the VIP arrival channel.
None of them had any luggage; the large pieces of luggage were delivered to their homes by the Zhou family's crew, which was convenient and worry-free.
But Lu Mingfei felt as if he were carrying several mountains on his back while walking.
Su Xiaoqiang didn't speak the whole way, and no one else spoke either. The girl was playing on her phone, typing rapidly, and occasionally revealing a strange smile, as if she was plotting something.
Other passersby occasionally encountered in the passageway all cast curious glances at this group of four young men and women who were quite good-looking but had an eerie atmosphere... Were they catching criminals?
Until they arrived at the underground parking garage,
The black limousine quickly rolled down its window, revealing a bright little face.
"Hey! New friend? Hop on, hop on!"
"Hey, here it comes!"
Lu Mingfei quickly came to his senses.
……
The engine starts, and you get a slight push-back feeling.
The Zhou family's driver was highly skilled; he didn't even shake the tea in the trunk.
The seating arrangement inside the carriage was quite particular; Su Xiaoqiang and Nuwa sat together, while Ling and Erii sat opposite them.
"Hehe, you're back, why bring so many gifts?"
"What should I call you, my two younger sisters?"
Nuwa's attitude was quite enthusiastic.
The smile on his face had an innocent and naive quality, as if everything was normal.
Su Xiaoqiang also wore a faint smile on her face, took a sip of tea, and although she did not speak, her invisible aura expanded.
"This is Nuwa, and this is Su Xiaoqiang. Hehe... we're all friends."
Lu Mingfei was unsure whether the gifts Nuwa mentioned referred to were the large and small packages stored on the plane, or something else entirely.
He had no choice but to sit in the middle, forcing a smile as he tried to smooth things over and introduce the situation.
"These two are here..."
"Hello, my name is Zero, and I am Lu Mingfei's partner." Zero looked up at Su Xiaoqiang and then at Nuwa.
"partner?"
Nuwa looked puzzled, emphasizing the word, her smile slightly strange.
Su Xiaoqiang unconsciously curled the corners of her mouth, continuing to play the role of the evil empress.
"Yes, you can also understand them as comrades-in-arms."
Zero's expression remained quite calm.
"Oh, so you're a comrade-in-arms."
Nuwa leaned back with her petite body, her smile undiminished as she turned to look at Su Xiaoqiang, who in turn looked back at her.
Without a sound, the two seemed to have exchanged a wave of consciousness.
Lu Mingfei's lips twitched involuntarily.
Damn it!
He was initially worried that once there were more people, the classic situation of creating small group chats would arise...
"Looking at you two, why would we need to create a private group chat? When did you two become so in sync?!" Lu Mingfei roared inwardly.
A moment later, the two seemed to have finished their conversation.
There was no specific mention of "comrades-in-arms" being referred to by Zero; in which specific battles are you referring to?
Further discussion is needed.
Instead, he first turned his attention to another girl with dark red hair.
Speaking of which... it's not just Su Xiaoqiang.
Nuwa also felt that this girl looked somewhat familiar.
Oh, I remembered it!
Judging from her appearance, isn't she exactly the same as the eldest daughter of the Chen family?
But her intuition told her that the two were completely different. Bearing the bloodline of the Zhou family's Nuwa, she could easily smell a dangerous aura emanating from the girl in front of her, making her worlds apart from the eldest daughter of the Chen family.
No, it wasn't just this dark red-haired girl; the platinum-haired girl next to her named 'Zero' also exuded a dangerous aura, though it was slightly less pronounced than the former's.
Good guy...
Where did Lu Mingfei find these two capable and tough girls?
What? Are you afraid that if it's a little weak, I'll turn it into torn bread?
Nuwa pondered this in her heart.
However, after a long time, he did not hear the other party speak.
She held up a small notebook made of raw wood and paper, with neat Japanese characters written on it.
"My name is Uesugi Erii, and your dress is very pretty."
"what?"
Su Xiaoqiang stopped her pretentious actions and her expression froze for a moment.
Nuwa, who was standing to the side, also subconsciously raised her eyebrows, because she suddenly realized that as she leaned back, part of her snake tail, which was originally covered by her pale yellow classical palace dress, had inadvertently been revealed.
The little girl opposite me kept staring at her own tail.
He looked like a curious child.
Nuwa realized something was wrong in just one second.
This girl is Japanese, she seems to have trouble speaking, and she doesn't seem very mature.
...What operation?
Noticing the questioning look that Su Xiaoqiang was secretly casting at her, Nuwa realized that our Lady doesn't understand Japanese.
For a moment, they couldn't care less about continuing to play the good cop and the bad cop.
The two lowered their heads and began to whisper to each other... using a mobile chat app.
None of us here have any bad bloodlines, so at this distance, even if we speak softly, it will still sound like we're plotting something loudly.
Lu Mingfei really couldn't stand it anymore.
"Ahem, her name is Uesugi Erii, and she is the head of the Uesugi family of the Snake-Headed Eight Families. The Frigga potion I asked you for last time was for her."
"Frigga's potion?"
Nuwa's little mind raced a thousand miles in an instant.
“Yes, I didn’t have a chance to tell you last time,” Lu Mingfei said.
"What is Frigga's potion?" Su Xiaoqiang raised his hand to ask.
"A sedative, specifically for dragon blood..."
This time, instead of sending a message via mobile phone, Nuwa quietly explained the relevant concepts to Su Xiaoqiang.
Lu Mingfei did not stop Nuwa.
After getting off the plane, he also saw the messages in the group. As the saying goes, it's better to guide than to block, and there's no need to keep everything from her.
Zero, who was standing nearby, helped translate a few sentences in a low voice. Erii didn't understand Chinese, and she could understand simple communication through body language and 'emotions', but she couldn't understand anything deeper.
Erii quickly wrote another line on the paper and obediently held it in front of her chest.
"Thank you for the medicine, sister."
"Oh, you're welcome, you're welcome."
Nuwa immediately nodded with a gentle smile, then glared fiercely at Lu Mingfei.
"You, explain yourself?"
The fake smile on Nuwa's face finally faded.
Su Xiaoqiang is the same.
The two women stared intently at Lu Mingfei.
“It’s my fault, I didn’t do it according to plan…” Lu Mingfei chuckled dryly.
Nuwa and Su Xiaoqiang had black lines appearing on their foreheads, and almost pounced on him to scratch him.
"Ahem, what I mean is, it wasn't intentional to exploit this bug; it was just a special circumstance..."
The black lines on their foreheads became even more pronounced.
No!
You even know you're exploiting a bug?
You, Lu Mingfei, absolutely will not be bringing a girl back from this trip to Japan!
But guess what? They brought back two at once?
One Japanese girl wasn't enough, so they brought along a Russian girl too?
Who knows if there are still people being supported outside!
She looks so fair and delicate, but how come she's all smooth talker behind our backs? She even started making those swearing promises like a scumbag! Isn't she just taking advantage of us two honest sisters?
"Who asked you this!"
Nuwa pouted, barely suppressing the urge to tickle him, "I'll ask you to tell me about her situation, Erii."
"Well, that's a long story..."
"Then let's get to the point!" Su Xiaoqiang wrinkled her nose, her eyes dangerous.
"OK then."
Lu Mingfei swallowed hard and began to give a brief introduction to Erii's life.
"In short, she is the best hybrid bloodline of the Snake-Headed Eight Family in this generation, but because of her bloodline, she has always been treated as a monster. For the past eighteen years, she has been controlled by bad people and lived like a wooden doll without any independent consciousness. She has basically never left the Snake-Headed Eight Family's supervision since she was a child. She can't even find a friend to play with, let alone experience the fun that normal girls have when they go shopping and traveling. When I met her, she was being semi-imprisoned deep inside the Genji Heavy Industries building..."
"...?" Nuwa tilted her head.
Sounds a bit familiar.
Su Xiaoqiang poked her with a strange expression and reminded her, "It sounds a lot like you."
"Yeah! These are all my lyrics!"
Nuwa's face immediately turned horrified. "You're not going to say that all she does all day is play video games, are you?"
"Hey, isn't that a coincidence... it really is!"
Lu Mingfei chuckled dryly, "At first, I added her as a friend on the gaming platform, just like Lao Tang."
He subtly employed the technique of using euphemism in writing.
This adds a layer of plausibility to the story, and it's true that there were no lies.
After a short while, having listened to Lu Mingfei's story,
Nuwa and Su Xiaoqiang's expressions became incredibly strange, and their murderous intent froze on their faces.
Is this story plausible?
That's reasonable, and quite logical.
Is this story true or not?
That's absolutely perfect!
After all, Erii was right here. Just one glance was enough to tell that this girl was different from normal girls. What kind of tall, well-developed girl, 1.7 meters tall with shoes on, would be carrying toys when she went out?
But the problem is...
Looking at Lu Mingfei, Zero, and Erii, who were clearly keeping their seats at a distance.
A strange feeling arose in Nuwa's heart.
Could we have wronged this guy? No, impossible! Absolutely impossible!
They're clearly using the same tricks I've already learned!
Well, maybe not...
Nuwa could sense some of Erii's thoughts from her expressionless face and the emotions conveyed between the lines: she was curious, nervous, and wanted to get close, but was also afraid of being disliked.
So Erii behaved very obediently and ingratiatingly, like a little animal with little presence. This kind of little animal probably doesn't understand romantic love at all; she just simply wants to find good friends?
Just as Nuwa was pondering,
Erii seemed to remember something, and took out two small toys from her large pockets. Before boarding the plane today, she had specially changed into her distinctive red and white shrine maiden outfit, following the advice of some people.
One is a miniature Rilakkuma, and the other is a Hello Kitty doll, with stickers on the bottom.
'Rilakkuma painted in pear clothes', 'Hello Kitty painted in pear clothes'.
Erii handed them over, holding up the small notebook in her other hand.
"This is for a friend. Nice to meet you. Please take good care of me."
really.
Nuwa's expression was complex, and her underlying resistance subtly faded away.
She has always been very good at judging people.
Su Xiaoqiang, who was standing to the side, also noticed Erii's timidity. He couldn't help but sigh and felt a pang of sadness.
This is really unfair... Why did it have to be a girl like this?
Seeing the two new friends looking hesitant,
Erii also tensed up, and then, as if she understood something, she quickly reached out to pry open the note on the bottom of the toy.
"Hey, hey, stop!"
Su Xiaoqiang quickly stopped her, took the Rilakkuma bear, and put on the friendliest smile he had ever given her:
"Thank you for the gift."
Nuwa's little face was also beaming with smiles as she took another Hello Kitty, saying, "I'll give you some treasures later."
They both spoke Chinese instinctively.
Erii didn't understand, but she was happy that her new friend had accepted the gift, so she blinked and nodded.
Su Xiaoqiang and Nuwa carefully touched the toy in front of Erii before putting it into their pockets.
Lu Mingfei watched all of this with amusement.
"So...you brought her back?"
Nuwa glared at him with a grimace, but her voice sounded weak, like a punch landing on cotton.
“Aren’t we going to open a school soon? Let’s teach them for a while,” Lu Mingfei said.
"Take him along?" Nuwa raised an eyebrow again.
"Yes, she has a lot of room for improvement in all aspects of common sense. Let's also see if we can help stabilize her bloodline. She's very strong."
Lu Mingfei mentioned it briefly, but didn't explain the real reason.
Nuwa stared into his eyes for a moment.
I roughly understand what Lu Mingfei meant. Nuwa could indeed sense that Erii's bloodline was very strong.
Her stability was a little lacking, which could be seen from the mottled color in her dark red eyes. This was a typical sedimentation phenomenon caused by excessively high concentrations of dragon blood, but her mental state was perfectly normal.
According to orthodox historical records, this kind of unilateral instability in high-bloodline individuals is mostly caused by acquired factors.
Either it's a failed baptism of dragon blood... For example, if Nuwa (the goddess of the sea) couldn't withstand the baptism of the Nuwa clan, that would be pretty much the outcome. Besides the Zhou family, the Beowulf family of the Western Secret Society also had a similar experience.
Either they are exposed to dragon blood during their highly malleable early childhood, and if their bloodline is strong enough, they will not die suddenly, but the effects will last for life... Of course, they usually won't last long. If left unchecked, the continuous damage to the body from dragon blood pollution will soon gradually affect their mental state, eventually leading to them losing control and becoming Deadpool.
"Eri looks like... she's probably been contaminated by dragon blood? And the level of dragon blood is probably not low."
As the head of the Zhou family, this generation of Nuwa had nothing to do in the past. She would occasionally flip through some ancient books, just as leisure reading. Her knowledge was naturally extraordinary, and she could see through Erii's background at a glance.
In this case……
Frigga Pharmacy is indeed a good fit for their expertise.
But why is it that the medicine made from the eldest daughter of the Chen family can help a girl who looks exactly like her maintain her health?
As expected of Nuwa, her thoughts raced like wildfire, and in an instant, she was on the same page as Lu Mingfei.
"What is her power of words?" Nuwa asked earnestly.
“Trial,” Lu Mingfei said.
Nuwa's gaze sharpened. "Judgment? Are you sure?"
"I'm sure."
Lu Mingfei looked puzzled, then quickly realized what he meant, "Are there any orthodox explanations for this?"
"Yes." Nuwa pondered for a moment, then made no attempt to hide anything.
"After you set off for Japan, I spent some time in the library and found a batch of documents from more than a thousand years ago. Angers said that Japan is a gathering place for the mixed blood of the Snake-Headed Eight Families, but in fact, according to the Zhou family records, some of the White King's descendants flowed into China during the Tang Dynasty. We had some exchanges at that time... and then they revealed some of the hidden history of the White King's lineage."
"Among them was the Word of Judgment. One of the White King's descendants who crossed the sea possessed 'Judgment,' an extremely special Word of Judgment. In our terms, it was the Western White Emperor who was in charge of killing and wielding the power of slaughter. He could ignore 'hardness,' 'material,' and 'distance,' and perform an absolute killing effect, killing everything within his domain..."
"Wow... That's amazing? There were trials before?" Lu Mingfei was stunned.
“It has always existed, but it’s only a theoretical trial.”
"What do you mean?"
"Trials are powerful, but only if they are conducted in their entirety."
Nuwa shook her head. "In the modern Secret Party's list of Words of Power, 'Judgment' is ranked 111th, second only to the God-level Words of Power. But that's not true. Judgment is a God-level Word of Power, and it is the exclusive God-level Word of Power of the White King. Once fully released, it has the power to destroy the world. In addition, it is worth mentioning that there is no distinction between high and low, noble and lowly among God-level Words of Power. They represent a kind of power and authority in a domain."
"whole……"
Lu Mingfei repeated the word.
"Does this mean that the descendants of the White King who crossed the sea during the Tang Dynasty did not have a complete understanding of the judicial system?"
"……if not?"
Nuwa smiled and said, "Humans cannot possibly master the complete divine power of words. Moreover, the power of judgment depends on one's own bloodline. You can't just instantly kill those with a stronger bloodline than you. So the truly powerful one is not judgment, but the White King. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been them who recounted the history of the White King, but us who recounted the orthodox history."
"However, their bloodline is actually not bad. The ancient texts speak highly of that group of White King bloodlines. According to their own account, their hybrid bloodline is the result of forced genetic modification by dragon blood. We can call it 'evolution' or 'contamination,' but in any case, the White King did some manipulation during this process, allowing 'Judgment' to be split up. Super hybrids with direct White King bloodlines have a certain chance of mastering a portion of the power of this divine word..."
Nuwa finished speaking in one breath, then suddenly her expression turned suspicious.
"Wait a minute, weren't you acting like a tyrant in Japan before? Why didn't they tell you these things? Aren't the Snake-Headed Eight Family descendants of the White King?"
"Well, that's true, but in reality, the Snake Clan was ravaged. Their true history has long been lost, and they've even lost most of their alchemy. The only one who knows a part of the true history is an old man who does square dancing and spends his days playing with lonely aunties at izakayas..." Lu Mingfei said awkwardly.
"Tsk...hey!"
Nuwa sneered, it was unclear whether she was gloating or being sarcastic.
Lu Mingfei quickly shut up and said awkwardly, "In short, it sounds like the White King wants his subordinates to do the work, but doesn't want them to wield too much power?"
"Pretty much. So the top experts from the Eight Serpent Clans came to the Tang Dynasty back then with the idea of completing the 'Word of Power: Judgment'," said Nuwa.
"Complete the trial?" Lu Mingfei was somewhat surprised. "What do you mean?"
"Because they discovered that in much older times, a complete version of 'Word of Power: Judgment' seemed to have occurred on this land."
"What is it?" Lu Mingfei asked instinctively.
"Uh, you've probably heard of it too."
Nuwa's expression suddenly turned strange.
"The Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation".
"what?"
……
Nuwa gave the order.
The black limousine immediately swerved into a corner.
Instead of heading towards the Peacock Mansion, we changed course and headed towards the southern part of the sea.
"Does such a thing really exist in the world?"
Lu Mingfei couldn't help but ask.
Generally speaking, the Zhuxian Formation comes from the Ming Dynasty fantasy novel "Investiture of the Gods". The leader of the Jie Sect, Tongtian Jiaozhu, set up this formation, which consists of four swords: Zhuxian Sword, Luxian Sword, Xianxian Sword, and Juexian Sword. They are hung above the formation gate and have the power to dominate the killing and destruction of the heavens.
However, "Investiture of the Gods" was a Ming Dynasty publication, while the mixed-blood lineage of the Snake-Gi-Ki family came into contact with the orthodox tradition during the Tang Dynasty.
The two are separated by nearly a thousand years.
"I do not know."
Nuwa looked completely innocent. "But there should be, right?"
"Should? Doesn't the Zhou family have any relevant records?" Lu Mingfei sighed, rubbing his forehead.
“It exists, but it’s not necessarily true.” Nuwa’s expression became even more innocent: “As we all know, the myths of various countries are, in a sense, a reflection of the real history of the dragon race, except for a very few myths that are suspected to be fabricated, such as the Takamagahara myth… Although you just said that this is the White King’s separate history, it can be considered a plausible explanation.”
"But it doesn't matter. Don't you think the truly mysterious thing is our Chinese mythology? Although it's plausible if you force it together, the distortion rate is just a little bit higher. Meanwhile, the two major origins of hybrid races, along with China, have the Norse mythology, which is recognized as the most accurate for understanding the history of dragons."
“Because we have too many myths,” Lu Mingfei said.
"Yes, various myths and legends are mixed together, so it is difficult to distinguish which part is real, which part is fictional, and which part is the truth buried by history."
Nuwa nodded slightly, then smiled again.
History is recorded by people, and the presence of human intervention inevitably leads to distortion, not to mention the many external factors that also influence it. This is something that later generations cannot solve.
"But in any case, let's just see the result. Those descendants of the Snake Clan must have had a reason for going to such lengths back then, otherwise they would have been beaten for nothing."
Soon, a black limousine pulled up outside a strangely shaped building on the southern outskirts of Binhai.
The Zhou family's stronghold in Binhai,
"Come over here."
Nuwa was the first to get off the chariot. A small wheeled carriage had been waiting for her for a long time. She waved her hand, indicating that it was too much trouble, and then slightly lifted her skirt and swam to the front.
The term "Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation" greatly piqued everyone's curiosity.
With some time to spare before dinner, the group decided to come here, which was conveniently located nearby.
I want to see the true face of 'Word of Power: Judgment'.
Compared to the harmless Erii,
Zero, this "dangerous element," did not receive any special treatment from Nuwa and Su Xiaoqiang.
Even though she seemed safer from the outside, after a brief exchange in the car, the three of them barely spoke to each other except for eye contact and 'smiling'.
The only good thing is that a fight hasn't broken out yet.
Arriving at the training room of this stronghold, the surroundings were empty. Under the incandescent light, it resembled a huge stadium with a plastic running track on the outside and wooden flooring inside, divided into several testing areas.
"Don't be afraid, Erii. I know you can speak. Come, stand next to your older sister."
Nuwa's voice was gentle.
Erii tiptoed over to stand there.
“Her use of the power of words will further exacerbate the loss of control over the bloodline,” Lu Mingfei warned.
"It's alright, I'm here." Nuwa raised her delicate chin.
The Word of Power: Nuwa Silently Activated.
No one knows the origin or function of this word of power, but as the colorless and formless yet clearly real halo enveloped Erii, Erii suddenly felt more comfortable than ever before, even more comfortable than when she got a new injection.
Erii tilted her head, raised her head, and held up her little notebook. "Thank you, big sister. It feels very comfortable."
Nuwa smiled gently, "You can try speaking."
He also cast a reassuring glance at Lu Mingfei.
Lu Mingfei nodded.
He naturally trusted Nuwa to do things.
Erii hesitated for a long time.
Turning around, Su Xiaoqiang saw Lu Mingfei and Ling giving her encouraging looks, and she did the same.
She nodded, uttering a clear sound for the first time: "&^&#*".
A storm suddenly arose.
An invisible and intangible spiritual storm... rushed towards Nuwa before him.
"Ouch me!"
Nuwa's forehead suddenly bulged, and like a nimble snake, she instantly changed her position.
The next second, everything behind her seemed to be torn apart. The wooden floor, the sandbags, the weight plates—everything visibly crumbled, leaving only a long trench and debris scattered throughout the room…
The Word of Power: Judgment has been passively activated.
Erii's face flashed with urgency. She was about to say something but then shut her mouth, quickly pulling out a small notebook and writing:
"I didn't mean to. I meant to say 'okay,' but when I said it, it came out as strange language!"
"it's okay no problem."
Nuwa smiled awkwardly and took a deep breath.
The Word of Power: Nuwa remains as steadfast as Mount Tai.
“The Word of Power you awakened is ‘Judgment,’ it’s normal that it’s hard to control. Try again… face that way, not towards us,” she added.
Erii hurriedly shook her head, looking at Lu Mingfei and Zero with a pleading expression.
She never spoke before because she knew long ago that her bloodline was different from that of normal people.
If she opens her mouth to speak, sometimes bad things happen... She almost always dies, and every time she causes trouble, her body is in a lot of pain and she has to get a lot of injections.
Although my body doesn't hurt this time, I still find myself saying strange things involuntarily.
She is actually able to speak normal human language, but she cannot control it, so she simply doesn't say a word.
"It's okay, Erii, your voice is actually very nice."
Lu Mingfei walked over and stroked her soft hair, saying gently, "We're all little monsters, this isn't a flaw. Erii is amazing, and this time your older sister will help you. You just need to accept yourself as you are."
This subconscious action was immediately noticed by Nuwa and Su Xiaoqiang.
The two of them couldn't help but twitch their brows, but they couldn't say anything... Erii looks like a great beauty, but she's actually just a child. You can't be jealous of a child.
After all, he was the man she chose herself, so Lu Mingfei's actions just now clearly had no other meaning than encouragement.
But Lu Mingfei realized something was wrong, coughed lightly, and quietly withdrew his hand from petting the cat.
Luckily, it was this cat I was petting, so I had to be a little careful.
“Okay,” Erii said, turning her head.
This time she learned her lesson.
But all was calm, and no unusual events occurred.
The chance of passively triggering 'Word of Power: Judgment' is not 100%; the 'randomness' is the real problem.
"Eri, you can take the initiative."
Lu Mingfei said, standing behind her.
"Be more proactive..."
Erii remained silent for a while before finally uttering the word.
The clear sound immediately took on a metallic luster.
A series of rapid and complex syllables rang out in the spacious training room.
"&^&#*".
The storm has struck again.
……
moment.
Most of the training ground was destroyed.
The group quickly evacuated to a safe area.
Not only did they bring Su Xiaoqiang, who was an ordinary person, but they also brought Erii.
Upon arriving at the monitoring room, Nuwa waved her hand, signaling the staff to leave.
Play back the footage frame by frame.
She easily concluded that "active release has a greater impact and a wider reach than passive release..."
Su Xiaoqiang, standing to the side, was already in a state of shock, her mood mixed with a bit of depression.
Erii's release of her Word of Power undoubtedly broadened Erii's horizons. If she hadn't been standing in the training ground herself just now, she would have thought the footage on the monitor was movie special effects.
Various pieces of equipment disintegrated, and bright, arrow-shaped steel fragments swept across like a torrential downpour, an indiscriminate attack. If you didn't hit them head-on, you'd be covered in bruises.
Is this the world of mixed-race people...? The differences are really huge.
Lu Mingfei noticed her unusual behavior and ruffled Su Xiaoqiang's shiny hair. "Don't worry, little fairy. Erii is an exception, and don't worry about your bloodline. I'll find a way."
The sudden intimate gesture startled Su Xiaoqiang. When she realized that the devil's hand was groping her head, her face flushed slightly, but she didn't stop it.
"You messed up my hair," she muttered under her breath.
Lu Mingfei lowered his hand with a grin. "In principle, Judgment is one of the few words of power that can be exempted from punishment because it is an attack in the mental realm. The caster can consciously judge a specific target, but this only applies to the 'shatter' moment. The subsequent shockwave is an area-of-effect physical damage, and you have to obey the command of Lord Newton."
"It's pretty much the same as what's recorded in the Zhou family's classics."
After a moment of contemplation, Nuwa said, "Eri's judgment is even more powerful, but correspondingly her physical condition is also worse."
"Is there a cure for her condition?" Lu Mingfei asked.
"Theoretically speaking, there must be a solution in the field of alchemy, but the problem is that the level of contamination is too high."
During that brief close encounter, she gained a deeper understanding of Erii's physical condition...
It's a complete mess.
You could believe it if you said she was contaminated by the blood of a first-generation dragon.
Nuwa shook her head: "I'll go back to the library to study it again later... Or there's another way. If she can better understand her 'judgment,' as long as she can control the power of words, and with the help of the Frigga series of potions, she'll actually be no different from a normal person."
"If we give all the Frigg's potions we seized from the Chen family to Erii, it will probably only last for ten years. At that point, we'll see if we should put the eldest daughter of the Chen family through some more hardship, considering the strategic importance of the situation..."
"What does 'trial' mean?"
Lu Mingfei interrupted,
He never sacrificed anyone's wishes to fulfill anyone's desires; there was always a better way.
"Well... don't you think Erii's grasp of 'Judgment' is actually quite superficial? This is a divine-level incantation exclusive to the White King. Even if it's only a part of it, it shouldn't be so crude," Nuwa said frankly.
Lu Mingfei then remembered that in orthodox thought, all words of power have room for 'development'—they call this 'true words'—and the exploration of true words is a process of 'seeking within,' which is the correct way to improve strength, rather than blindly pursuing the improvement of bloodline.
Of course, this is also because there is simply no reliable method to improve bloodlines that can be widely adopted.
"But Erii... well, let's take it slow. Let her stay by my side, try things out, and then systematically learn some techniques. There's still a chance for her to master 'judgment' to the extreme."
Nuwa sighed, clearly not optimistic.
Generally speaking, the higher the level and the greater the power of a Word of Power, the more difficult it is to understand its essence. Even if a hybrid can release a Word of Power, it is only following the instinct hidden in its bloodline, not truly 'understanding' the Word of Power. To truly understand it, one must work on the Dragon Runes.
“&^&#*.” Lu Mingfei suddenly uttered a trilled 'r' sound.
"...?"
Everyone was startled. Lu Mingfei raised an eyebrow and said, "Didn't you hear Erii say that dragon script just now?"
"I heard you."
Nuwa's expression was strange. "But dragon runes can't work just by simulating sounds, my dear. There are many intricacies to dragon runes. You don't even understand the meaning of that word. You should go to school. I really need to give you a general knowledge lesson..."
"die."
Lu Mingfei said, "Eri just released the judgment, and the dragon script she used meant death."
"..."
Nuwa remained silent for a long while before saying, "Don't do anything."
"Nothing happened."
Lu Mingfei shook his head. "I resonated with it."
"." Nuwa.
"Why did you lie to me?"
Lu Mingfei was unhappy.
"Hey, hey, hey, you're not lying to me, you're not lying to me." Nuwa chuckled silently.
But Lu Mingfei grabbed her cheek, his lips, like delicate roses, parted slightly, revealing a shocked and pretty face, instantly rendering her speechless.
All was quiet.
"Hmph, no more sarcastic remarks."
After a moment, Lu Mingfei released his grip, glanced around, and saw that everyone present was one of his own.
They all stared at him as if he were a ghost... Erii was also very sociable.
Seeing this, Lu Mingfei simply decided not to hide anything anymore.
“It’s not just ‘death.’ I also saw two other dragon runes through my spiritual vision just now. They might be the incomplete parts of the ‘Word of Power: Judgment’ you mentioned. If I master them all and then teach them to Erii, theoretically it would be equivalent to letting her understand ‘judgment’, right?” Lu Mingfei spoke frankly.
"Theoretically... that's how it is... right?"
Nuwa's expression became increasingly ghostly.
"Are you serious? So which two dragon runes are they?"
Lu Mingfei immediately launched into two bizarre syllables with a flick of his tongue.
'Vplusp', 'Hryavq'
Of course, it only has the form.
“The first part of the dragon script means disaster, curse, calamity… The second part of the dragon script means deprivation, crushing, decomposition…” Lu Mingfei explained in turn.
"That dragon script on Erii's clothes..." Nuwa said hesitantly.
"die."
Lu Mingfei asserted, "There is only one meaning."
He knew what Nuwa was wondering about.
No joke, Erii was speaking in an ancient, primordial language. He had never heard that dragon script before, but perhaps it was because he knew about the other two core dragon scripts of the Word of Judgment beforehand.
Lu Mingfei was actually able to understand its meaning.
This dragon script is different from the usual dragon script, which is a collection of various concepts.
Its meaning is singular: death!
Even after hearing this word, the two towering trees representing the origin of the Dragon Script, originally stored deep in his memory, silently showed signs of connection.
This is not an illusion.
With the addition of 'death'.
The two seemingly unrelated dragon runes, 'Vplusp' and 'Hryavq', now appear to be nested together; 'Death' combines these two runes...
Or perhaps these three dragon-patterned inscriptions were originally one entity.
And even... there's a fourth dragon rune, forming an even bigger puzzle!
The true 'Word of Power Judgment'.
In ancient times, the White Emperor used the ultimate power of words for slaughter.
