A man among dragons, building a mysterious ancient church.

Chapter 30 Mr. White Tower
Monday afternoon at 2 p.m., an abandoned warehouse in Los Angeles, USA.

The executive officer, who was almost thirty, patted Chu Zihang on the shoulder with a sigh: "Your junior is getting more and more amazing these days."

"Thanks to you, we didn't even realize that there was a second Deadpool hiding in this godforsaken place."

Since last Friday, after defeating the fifth generation of the species in the preparatory class, Chu Zihang did not choose to go home, but instead started his internship ahead of schedule and continued to participate in the missions of the execution department.

Professor Schneider was pleased with this and immediately arranged for a plane to fly Chu Zihang from the capital to Los Angeles overnight to carry out his second mission.

After successfully killing the Deadpool, Chu Zihang clearly felt that another 10% of the Hunter's Potion in his body had been successfully digested, and he was secretly delighted.

At this rate, two more missions should be enough to digest the Hunter's Potion!

Hunting, hunting, thanks to the mission from the Execution Department, which provided him with so many hunting targets.

It's almost 3 p.m.

Chu Zihang, who had been thinking about the time all Monday, expressed his fatigue and hoped to go back to rest first. The specialist naturally had no objection and even took the initiative to call a taxi for Chu Zihang.

……

Chen Motong is still in Binhai. This weekend, Kassel will officially begin its enrollment process and has selected Binhai's only new student—Lu Mingfei.

For some reason, Professor Guderian attached great importance to Lu Mingfei, and even asked Chen Motong to find a way to get Lu Mingfei to agree to enroll in Kassel.

To put it bluntly, the gist of it is that they would do anything, even cheat and swindle, to get Lu Mingfei into the academy.

Chen Motong readily agreed, considering it repayment, because Professor Guderian used his connections to actually obtain another set of main ingredients for the potion for Chen Motong.

10 ml of rabbit spinal fluid containing a trace of dragon's blood.

Chen Motong used the 400 contribution points from completing the mission for the first time to exchange for the Dragon Blood Lizard pituitary gland bestowed by Mr. Fool, thus independently concocting the Sequence 8 Mind Reader Potion.

With this, Chen Motong successfully advanced to Sequence 8 Mind Reader, further enhancing her observational abilities.

It can not only identify various emotions of the target and read their thoughts at a superficial level, but it can even simulate the target's thinking in a preliminary way.

Although there was still no boost to her combat power, Chen Motong was already extremely satisfied.

The reason is very simple: even with the Sequence 8 Mind Reader's Potion, she had already digested 70% of it as soon as she drank it.

At this rate, she will soon be able to continue her promotion and gain an improvement in combat power.

Chen Motong, feeling quite pleased with herself, also discovered that the ability to read minds was particularly useful in reality, much more convenient than the ability to profile.

The next day when they met, Ye Sheng kept glancing at Chen Motong, but was stopped by Jiu Deyaji.

Chen Motong immediately read their thoughts, and Ye Sheng planned to tell Chen Motong about the old church.

However, Shudeya Ki did not want to involve Chen Motong in the overly mysterious Old Church.

Chen Motong couldn't help but chuckle. Her seniors had no idea that she had long been a member of the Old Church.

In the past, profiling required extensive research and quiet, solitary reflection to discern the target's superficial thoughts. Mind reading, however, is much easier; what you see is what you read.

She couldn't wait to go to the meeting today to see if any newcomers had been promoted faster than her.

Who knows, she might just be the one who stands out from the crowd and reigns supreme!

……

The interior of the second floor of the old clock tower at the main campus of Kassel College was in a mess.

The residents here seem to have never had any hygiene problems; empty wine bottles and various adult magazines are scattered all over the place, and there is almost no open space to step on.

An old man dressed as a cowboy in the West flew into a rage: "Fingal! How much dragon blood material do you want?!" The scolded Fingal didn't care. With a bag of precious alchemical materials in one hand, he walked out like a wholesaler: "I'll bring you a few bottles of wine tonight, teacher."

"I'll take these back and practice with them first."

"You son of a bitch!" The old man was none other than Nicholas, the vice principal of Cassel, a Night Watchman, and the top alchemist among the hybrids.

When Nicholas first saw his student Fingel cheer up, he didn't say anything on the surface, but he was quite happy inside.

What's even more gratifying is that after Fingel cheered up, he regained his interest in alchemy, visiting every day and occasionally taking some dragon blood materials back with him, saying he was practicing in private.

Nicholas was quite satisfied, but after a while, the old man noticed something was wrong. "You can't come here every day to get the materials, can you?"

You should know that the alchemical materials that Nicholas took a liking to and specially brought back to the clock tower were all rare and precious items.

Fingel came over every day to cause trouble, and Nicholas couldn't stand it anymore: "Come back! You come back here!"

The more Nicholas shouted, the faster Fingel ran, until he disappeared from sight, infuriating Nicholas: "Traitor! This is the kind of traitor that Eastern alchemists often talk about!"

Fingel completely disregarded the teacher's thoughts, quickly took the materials back to his dormitory, closed the doors and windows tightly, and lay down with trepidation.

Silently waiting for 3 PM to arrive.

It's incredible, considering that Fingel was once a genius, how could he agree to join the mysterious Old Church just because of a mysterious phone call?
Recalling the resurrection mentioned in that phone call, and the Reader's Potion for which the old church provided the recipe and which he concocted and drank, Fingel's nose tingled slightly: "Wait for me, EVA."

Before Fingel could ponder further, a deep crimson bloomed before his eyes, engulfing everything.

……

Above the gray fog, on either side of the bronze table, Xu Lie, Chu Zihang, and Chen Motong all stared at Fingel, the third seat on the left side of the bronze table who had recently joined the church.

Chu Zihang was curious about the newcomer's identity. Could he also be a student at Kassel? Judging from his height, he seemed somewhat like Fingel, the senior he had encountered in his first mission. No, he couldn't be sure yet.

Chen Motong was secretly pleased, even though it seemed that the newcomers were not Ye Sheng or Jiu Deyaji, but it didn't matter.

The more people join the old church, the safer she feels.

Xu Lie was simply following the crowd. Everyone was paying attention to newcomers, and if you didn't, you would stand out too much and easily arouse suspicion.

Fingel wasn't shy or aloof; he was particularly cheerful. He raised both hands, one to the boys and the other to the ladies, saying, "Hello everyone! I'm new here, please take good care of me, seniors."

In this way, Fingel's inner shock is concealed: What exactly is this place? And how did he get here?

Could this be what the teacher once said—the creation of space, one of the seven highest achievements of dragon alchemy and one of the seven kingdoms?
But there's no trace of alchemical runes or dragon runes.

The old church is unfathomable!
Fearful yet hopeful, precisely because of its mystery and power, Fingel felt that perhaps it really could revive his girlfriend EVA!
The three seniors observed Fingel, and Fingel was also observing them, but unfortunately, due to the obscuring gray fog, they couldn't observe anything.

Both Chu Zihang and Chen Motong learned from their previous experience. This time, Chu Zihang changed out of his black trench coat from the executive department to attend the meeting.

Chen Motong even wore a baseball cap, tucking her most noticeable feature—her long red hair—into the meeting. The effect was excellent; indeed, only the cap could be seen above the gray fog, not a single strand of hair.

The Fool at the end of the long table tapped the surface lightly, drawing the attention of the four: "First, let's welcome our new member."

Upon hearing this, the three, who had received a long period of education, began to clap their hands as if they were listening to a leader speak in a school auditorium.

"Next, let me introduce you to Mr. Error, Ms. Dreamer, and Mr. Red Priest."

"Finally, sir, shall we remove the veil of gray fog and reveal our true appearance and real name?"

Fingel wasn't stupid either, and immediately bowed respectfully in reply: "Dear Mr. Fool, I choose to use the code name."

“Yes, Mr. White Tower.”
