A man among dragons, building a mysterious ancient church.

Chapter 236 Manipulating His Own Brother, the Secret Party Makes its Appearance

"The King of Earth and Mountains?! Is he in the Chen family's house?!" Lu Mingfei was so shocked by this information that he jumped up from the sofa.

Then his legs slammed into the tea table. Because he got up so fast, he shifted the table, and the cups and saucers on it were all over the place.

The pain made Lu Mingfei's throat gurgle as he slumped back onto the sofa, rolling back and forth while hugging his calves. This action caused Lu Mingze, who was about to "sell his business" next to him, to twitch his cheeks.

"Sigh." Lu Mingze let out a heavy sigh and slapped his forehead with one hand: "Brother, I'm so glad that you don't mind making a fool of yourself in front of me."

"But please be more careful next time. When I see you doing something silly, I want to laugh but I have to consider your self-esteem."

"Hiss." Lu Mingfei gasped to relieve the pain. "What are you talking about? You're already laughing, aren't you?"

Lu Mingze's mouth was wide open, but he didn't laugh out loud.

Silently tidying up the coffee table and rearranging the cups, Lu Mingze was still thinking about Lu Mingfei's things after he finished tidying up: "So, shall we make a deal?"

"With just a quarter of your life, brother, you can slay the King of Earth and Mountains in front of so many hybrids!"

"At that time, countless honors, power, and wealth will surge towards you like a tsunami!"

At this point, Lu Mingze clenched his left hand tightly, as if to make his words more convincing: "Finally, even the girl you like, brother, will fall for you, the dragon-slaying hero, because of this!"

When the topic of girls came up, Lu Mingze clenched his right hand again: "For example, Chen Wenwen, whom you like. When you become a dragon-slaying hero, there will be countless Chen Wenwens rushing into your arms."

"Even the most beautiful mixed-race women, like your senior sister Nuonuo? Your senior sister Susie? They would..."

"Enough!" Lu Mingfei impatiently hugged his legs and huddled in a corner of the sofa, stopping Lu Mingze's incessant chatter: "It's one thing to talk about Chen Wenwen."

"Don't say that to my two senior sisters, they took good care of me."

Lu Mingze raised an eyebrow in surprise. Was this still his good-for-nothing brother who was obsessed with artsy girls?

It's okay to talk about Chen Wenwen, but not about the two senior sisters?

No, so you changed your mind pretty quickly, huh!
Lu Mingfei understood Lu Mingze's expression, and his face darkened: "Don't overthink it. I just suddenly realized... it's been a long time since I've heard the name Chen Wenwen."

In fact, if Lu Mingze hadn't mentioned it, Lu Mingfei would have completely forgotten about the president of the literary society.

After joining Kassel, his life was extremely eventful. He dealt with all kinds of mixed-race people every day and was constantly being taught knowledge by his senior brother Fingel. He was so busy that he didn't have much time to think.

Afterwards, they went to Philadelphia for the Battle of the Two Kings, and the academy was surrounded by four major powers. Now, the Dragon King incident is also involved.

I fall asleep the moment my head hits the pillow every day, so where do I find the time to reminisce or miss someone?

With less time spent thinking about it, the image of that artistic young woman in my heart gradually faded away without me even realizing it.

Lu Mingze was quite happy. Chen Wenwen was not good enough for his brother: "Okay, then let's not talk about them. Can you talk about your wonderful life with beauties on both sides after you successfully slayed the dragon?"

"I suddenly need to pee, please allow me to use the restroom and I'll be right back." Lu Mingfei uttered these nonsensical words at lightning speed and then ran towards the bathroom.

Damn it, where is the bathroom in the hotel's presidential suite?

The space was so large that Lu Mingfei couldn't find a toilet for a while!

And that little devil, why did he have to slay the dragon? Especially a monster like the King of Earth and Mountains!

That's a terrifying thing that can twist abandoned elevated roads into a pretzel!
"Here you are, brother." Lu Mingze, who had somehow moved, pushed open a door and waved to Lu Mingfei: "The restroom is just inside."

"..." Lu Mingfei stopped in his tracks. He didn't want Lu Mingze to watch him use the restroom: "What exactly do you want? What can I do? I'm a fake S-rank!"

"You really want me to go and fight the King of the Earth and Mountains?!"

“Of course, my current brother is no good.” Lu Mingze leaned leisurely against the door frame, striking a cool pose: “But if my brother is willing to make a deal with me, then it’s not a problem.”

"Brother, you must know that none of us know why the King of Earth and Mountains appeared in the Chen family."

"If the Mountain King intends to take this opportunity to eliminate those half-bloods, and only you students are left, will you be able to return alive?"

Lu Mingfei muttered some inaudible complaints for a while before finally tentatively asking, "Will the King of Earth and Mountains really come to kill us?"

"Pfft!" This time, Lu Mingze laughed openly, without any attempt to hide it: "You came here to kill the Dragon King, do you think the Dragon King would respectfully send you away and say with a smile, 'Welcome back next time'?"

Suddenly, the phrase "He who kills will be killed" popped into Lu Mingfei's mind. Where did he see it? In Chen Wenwen's literary society's collection of books?

Damn it, why am I thinking about her again? It's all Lu Mingze's fault for mentioning her. But Lu Mingze is right, they came here to slay the dragon, how could the dragon possibly let them go?
What if... all those mixed-race people in the Chen family are wiped out by the King of Earth and Mountain? The remaining senior brothers and sisters at the hotel will also face a life-threatening crisis.

"I... I'll go take a look first."

Lu Mingze smiled, already knowing how to persuade his brother to make a 'voluntary' deal: "I didn't expect you to value your senior brothers and sisters so much, brother."

……

At the Chen Family Manor, one crisis followed another. Nuwa coldly watched the black convoy approaching from afar, her golden eyes revealing no emotion or thought.

"We need to ask Senior Brother Fingel how many people from the Secret Party came, and whether there are any... members of the Academy." After dealing with Han Gao, Chu Zihang and Su Xi returned to the camps of the Zhou and Bai families.

Looking to the other side, Fingel was slowly walking back.

The faceless talisman they are currently using is still working reliably. Since it's not their original face, they are not afraid to confront the Secret Society openly.

Judging by the time, the Faceless Man's spell will not expire for more than two hours, making it much more comfortable to fight than wearing a KFC paper bag and a black face mask.

Susie, who had deliberately made her appearance ordinary, nodded in agreement, hoping to get an answer from Fingel. Among the members, only Fingel had extremely high authority over Norma of the academy.

As for Chen Motong? He remained hidden within the Zhou family's camp from beginning to end, concealing himself with psychological invisibility, saving a Faceless Man talisman for later use.

Fingel's first words upon returning were good news: "Don't worry, Norma told me that only Principal Angers came from the hotel."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief; thankfully, this way they wouldn't give themselves away.

What they feared was that Angers would bring all the students over, and even with psychological suggestion, it would be easy for others to discover that they were not in the academy's ranks.

After delivering the good news, Fingel rubbed his chin with his right hand and looked Chu Zihang and Su Xi up and down: "By the way, what happened to you two? Such casual looks. Be more careful when you're sculpting your faces."

After saying that, Fingel flipped his bangs as if to show off. It was clear that his mixed-race face with black hair and blue eyes was the result of meticulous face sculpting, and he was quite handsome.

Chu Zihang values ​​efficiency and speaks very little: "Just disguise yourself so that no one discovers your true identity."

Susie has a bit of a girlish mindset. What if the face swap makes her look too good and she unexpectedly wins Chu Zihang's favor?
Although she is still herself in essence, it's not her own face, so she still feels uncomfortable. Of course, given Chu Zihang's personality, this possibility is extremely small, but it's better to be safe than sorry.

You can't just take advantage of being lucky and naively think you'll be lucky forever.

As Susie was thinking this, it unexpectedly accelerated the digestion of the potion, leading her to realize a rule of the Lucky One's role—the Lucky One cannot rely on luck forever.

Fate is unpredictable; even those favored by fate cannot be lucky forever.

Thanks to this chaotic battle, many half-bloods believe that Susie is incredibly lucky. She has greatly absorbed the potion and summarized new rules for acting. With a little more time, Susie will soon be able to advance again.

“Okay.” Fingel raised his hand again and fiddled with his black hair. After the face swap, he quite liked playing with his new face. “I just wanted to say that you guys swapped faces so casually, and it actually suits you quite well.”

Chu Zihang's square face remained expressionless, while Su Qian couldn't help but slightly raise the corners of her mouth. "You're quite the smooth talker, senior who's repeated a year."

As they chatted, more than a dozen cars gradually pulled up on the outer edge of the crowd, attracting the attention of all the mixed-race people present.

As expected, just as they predicted, the Secret Service arrived.

"That's... the Sigurd family's holy sword—Barmunk?! The Sigurd family actually brought this relic of their ancestor Siegfried here!"

"Not only that, the Beowulf family is here too. This family is extremely cruel. All newborns are raised on dragon blood. Those who can't survive are simply discarded as garbage. Only those who survive are considered members of the family."

Dragon blood is poisonous. Except for a very few high-bloodline hybrids who can bathe in dragon blood, the vast majority of hybrids will be corrupted by it.

The Beowulf family used it to feed newborns, a practice so perverse that even the mixed-race populations of the six major African tribes secretly called it barbaric.

"And there's Elizabeth Laurent, the current head of the Laurent family! And Charlotte Gorgentin, the future head of the Gorgentin family! You idiot, hurry up and say hello!"

These two are among the most sought-after and highly educated women in the mixed-race community.

If a marriage alliance can be successfully formed, it will undoubtedly bring tremendous assistance to their own forces. Therefore, many senior members disregarded the casualties they suffered when facing Nuwa and urged the remaining juniors to become familiar with her.

"Wait, that's...that's Angers?! Angers from Kassel!"

Before the younger generation could even make a move, they were surprised to find that Angers hadn't taken a carriage, but had suddenly appeared next to Sigurd and Beowulf.
