If Erii loses the power of the Word of Judgment, then based solely on her physical strength, she is not much stronger than an ordinary girl.
Lin Ye wasn't sure what the situation would be like at Kassel College. After all, the vice-principal's Word of Power was a law that could suppress the bloodline of mixed-bloods with lower blood levels than the vice-principal, thus imprisoning their Word of Power within their bodies. However, Lin Ye felt that if Erii really wanted to unleash Judgment, she would still be able to do so despite the suppression of the law. Perhaps the power of Judgment would be relatively weakened due to the restrictions of the law. But let alone just weaken it a little, even if it was only weakened by half, the explosive power of Judgment would still be extremely terrifying.
If an outbreak were to occur at Kassel College, it would likely centered on Erii herself. Within the area enveloped by the Word of Judgment, there would probably be no living beings left. This was something Lin Ye was quite worried about, as Erii was new to the college and unfamiliar with its environment. If things really escalated to the point of violence, Erii might mistake it for a charade and unleash a powerful attack, which would be utterly disastrous.
Erii will also attract the attention of Angers and others by forcibly unleashing her bloodline within the Discipline Domain, so Lin Ye naturally needs to ask her about it.
When Lin Ye asked the question, Masashi Tomiyama's heart skipped a beat. He felt that Lin Ye's words had a hidden meaning. He probably wanted to know how Lin Ye would resolve the conflict if it really broke out, or if he would retaliate immediately.
It has to be said that Lin Ye's words once again earned him a lot of respect from Masashi Tomiyama. After all, many freshmen used to be terrified when they learned that conflicts might break out in the academy, but Lin Ye had already figured out how to deal with the potential impact of such a conflict.
That's the difference. Putting aside ability, the mentality alone is enough to win.
"Lin Ye, that's a great question. Don't worry, Kassel College is generally very safe. The reason we wear these bulletproof and blast-proof uniforms is purely for safety reasons. And there won't be any direct conflicts within the college."
Masashi Toyama quickly assured him.
"That's for sure. A direct confrontation is unlikely to break out, because people usually shoot each other from behind."
Fingel then leaned over and whispered something in Lin Ye's ear with a sly grin.
Then he said to Lin Ye, "Junior, you don't need to worry about those details. If you are really worried about your safety or the safety of others in the academy, you can join our news department."
You see, our news department is generally an intelligence-gathering unit. Most of the time we stay hidden, it's absolutely safe, because we never set foot on enemy territory.
"Hide your tracks?" Lin Ye raised an eyebrow slightly.
Seeing that Lin Ye had shown interest, Fingel quickly explained, "That's right, it's basically about hiding, because only by surviving can we gather more valuable intelligence. And only by surviving can we take that valuable intelligence with us."
Moreover, because of our unique situation, even if the enemy attacks our own base, as long as we can immediately provide them with valuable intelligence that we've prepared beforehand, we can secure a chance to continue hiding. We might even be treated like honored guests, with good food and drink provided, which would be considered breaching the enemy's fortress from within.
Fingel muttered to himself, oblivious to everyone else. Although his voice was low, his barely suppressed excitement made his monologue heard by everyone present.
Masashi Tomiyama, who usually has excellent mental control, turned somewhat dark with anger at Fingel. "Finger, I am issuing you a serious warning in the name of Kassel faculty. If you have nothing else to do, you can go rest in another carriage. Didn't you just say you were drunk on hot chocolate? Go now, otherwise Professor Schneider will assign you another task."
Fingel immediately nodded repeatedly in fright, "Okay, okay, Professor Tomiyama Masafumi and Professor Schneider, you go ahead and do your work. I can't handle hot chocolate, so I'll go and rest first."
After saying that, he couldn't help but glance at Schneider sitting to the side, but fortunately the other party didn't seem to want to pay any attention to him.
Fingel the dog waved furtively at Lin Ye and Erii, then quickly darted out of the carriage.
Only after Finger had completely left did the carriage truly become quiet.
"Mr. Masafumi Toyama, we may begin."
Schneider said this to the middle-aged teacher at that moment.
"Yes, Professor Schneider."
The latter nodded solemnly, his frustration from Fingel's earlier mischief completely gone, and he instantly returned to work mode.
Next, Masashi Tomiyama approached the bookshelf. His hand brushed over the heavy books as he said to Lin Ye, "Lin Ye, if you can read Latin, you'll know the titles of these books, such as *The Key of Solomon*, *Dragon Genetics*, *Dragons and Words of Power*, and even *The Theory of Dragon Bloodlines*..."
Masashi Tomiyama said with a cryptic expression.
"This..." Lin Ye smiled wryly.
“It’s alright, it’s normal that you don’t understand.” Masashi Tomiyama said calmly.
It wasn't that he thought Lin Ye was incapable, but rather that Latin itself was extremely obscure and difficult to understand.
From a linguistic perspective, Latin can be considered the standard language of ancient Rome, even though it was a crucial tool for global cultural exchange. This is because of its clear pronunciation, concise meaning, rigorous and stable grammatical structure, and extremely rich vocabulary.
Especially in modern medicine, many medical terms, if observed carefully, are derived from Latin roots. Latin has become an internationally recognized academic language, with fields such as microbiology, zoology, pathology, anatomy, and physiology using Latin for formal naming.
Moreover, Latin is also very mysterious, as some ancient books were also written in Latin. For example, the Bible, which is regarded as the orthodox education of Christianity, is in Latin. There is even a very terrifying book of the dead, a mysterious text that is also recorded in Latin.
As for the books in this carriage, being able to read Latin is merely a basic level—as Masafumi Tomiyama said, it only means being able to understand the titles. The contents of each book are shrouded in mystery. In this field, one cannot understand these contents without reaching the level of a professor, because this is literature that transcends the normal human world, and it is also the key to unlocking the world of dragons.
Lin Ye nodded very readily, indicating that he did not understand Latin.
But he had heard of these books, because he had read about dragons.
"For example, this dragon family tree mentions the Black King, the White King, and the four original species."
Masafumi Tomiyama pulled an extremely thick book from the bookshelf, flipped through a few pages, and then began to translate it.
"Excuse me, Professor Masashi Tomiyama, I need to interrupt for a moment. Do you think that exchange students who have been highly recommended by Genjiro need to learn about dragon family trees? If so, I think it would be better to just show them the actual items. I think our new students would be very much looking forward to it."
Schneider's hoarse voice rang out.
"This... look at my brain, it must be that bastard Fingel who made me angry, I understand now, Professor Schneider."
Masashi Tomiyama couldn't help but pat his forehead, looking quite helpless.
For a moment, I didn't react.
Then he said to Lin Ye, "Now, the real testimonials will be presented. Lin Ye, are you ready?"
"of course."
Seeing Lin Ye's relaxed tone, Masashi Tomiyama knew that the other party must be very knowledgeable, so he said no more.
"Alright, let's start with the first thing that serves as evidence."
Masashi Toyama nodded solemnly.
Then he pulled a black briefcase, made entirely of quartz, from under the table in front of him. He then gently placed it on the table.
Masashi Toyama then opened the box using his fingerprint and a combination of passwords.
Inside the white foam lay a jet-black scale, about half the size of an adult's palm. Its overall structure was a perfect rhombus, and its surface was extremely shiny, as if coated with some kind of oil, shimmering with a deep light. On the scale were layers of delicate and profound textures, which at first glance looked like some kind of inscription.
"This is……"
Lin Ye raised an eyebrow slightly.
In fact, he had witnessed the Dragon Scale Trial in the original work, so he naturally knew about it, but he couldn't say it, so he pretended to be clueless.
"These are dragon scales."
"Dragon scales? This is what they look like!"
Lin Ye raised his voice slightly, expressing his surprise.
"Yes."
Masafumi Tomiyama nodded. "In 1900, Sven Hedin discovered it in an ancient city in the East. Actually, Sven Hedin couldn't recognize what it was at the time, but he tried to destroy it by hitting it with a heavy hammer and even by burning it. Although Sven Hedin didn't recognize it, he knew that it was definitely a treasure given its toughness, so he brought it back to Europe. Later, it was recognized by a German named Menek Kassel."
Masashi Toyama slowly explained the origin of this scale.
Lin Ye nodded solemnly.
"Lin Ye, you can squeeze it with your hand and test its firmness."
Masafumi Toyama said.
"Is this appropriate?" Lin Ye asked casually out of politeness.
It doesn't bite.
Schneider said coldly.
Masashi Tomiyama's brow twitched twice; he could certainly hear the sarcasm in the other person's words.
"Then try it."
Lin Ye shrugged indifferently. Without hesitation, he directly picked up the dragon scale. The first feeling was that it was a little cold, but it also felt very tough, like touching a piece of steel. However, its edges were extremely sharp, and a slight scratch could easily cut through the skin.
"Wait, Lin Ye, you're not thinking of crushing it, are you?"
Masashi Tomiyama couldn't help but remind Hayashi Yoru.
He certainly didn't think Lin Ye would actually crush the dragon scale. He just felt that the other party was too engrossed, as if he didn't care about the dragon scale at all, and was just casually handling it. However, if this continued, the other party's hand might get cut. The dragon scale might not be affected, because its toughness had been proven in countless trials.
However, if the skin is actually scratched, given the unknown properties of dragon scales, it may become contaminated with the dragon's own toxicity or other harmful substances. Therefore, Masafumi Toyama felt it necessary to remind Lin Ye at this moment.
"Of course I'm not going to crush it, I just want to see if it's soft," Lin Ye said.
"If you want to continue trying, you can use this."
Schneider pulled out a silver pistol from his person, Walter PPK.
Every time 007 appears in the 007 series of movies, accompanied by tense and exciting music, he holds a PPK, rolls and shoots, his movements are stylish and ruthless, and one enemy after another falls down, perfectly portraying that cold and powerful temperament.
However, when 007 is holding a PPK and shooting, he gives off a heroic and invincible feeling. But if Schneider were to charge out in this outfit with a PPK, he would look like a complete villainous boss.
Just as Lin Ye reached out and grabbed the gun, Masashi Tomiyama, mimicking Finger's smug expression, cautiously leaned closer to Lin Ye and whispered, "Actually, the PPK in the 007 movies is nothing compared to Professor Schneider's sidearm. That's just a toy. But Professor Schneider's sidearm is an alchemical weapon developed by the academy's equipment department. Every shot is like firing a heavy cannon. One shot can knock down a bull. Of course, a normal person might not be able to fire it, because the recoil is terrifying. Lin Ye, if you..."
Just then, the carriage passed through a tunnel, and the light became flickering. At the same moment, Schneider suddenly sprang up and threw the scale on the table.
"Lin Ye, now's the time!"
Schneider's voice rang out.
Lin Ye raised an eyebrow and, without hesitation, fired repeatedly at the flying scales. Sparks flew everywhere in the carriage, and Fingel's strange screams could also be heard from the next carriage.
Masashi Tomiyama's heart skipped a beat.
Oh no, what if the bullet went off accidentally and blew through Fingel's neck?

If a camera were to capture this scene and slow it down indefinitely, it would reveal that when Lin Ye fired the shot, it was precisely when the jet-black dragon scale was being flung to its highest point.
In that same instant when the lights flickered, Lin Ye swiftly and coolly pulled back the bolt of his gun, looking even more dashing than a 007 agent in a movie. Holding the gun in one hand, he instantly pulled the trigger, unleashing a barrage of fire at the falling dragon scales.
With a bang, a barrage of bullets shot out from the gun barrel, standing out conspicuously in the pitch-black environment. One of the bullets hit the center of the dragon scale perfectly.
Wow, that's a great shot!
Masashi Toyama was suddenly jolted.
Despite the slightly impaired vision in such a dim environment, he could still see much more clearly than a normal person. After all, Masashi Tomiyama was also a hybrid, and his physique was enhanced to a certain extent by the dragon blood. His various senses were several times stronger than those of a normal person. Moreover, the bullet was launched at such a rapid speed that the dazzling barrage could serve as a light source, allowing him to clearly see that it finally struck the center of the scale.
Moreover, it should be noted that Masashi Tomiyama had previously warned about the power of this PPK. Due to the modifications made by the bomb fanatics in the equipment department of Kassel College, the recoil of this gun is extremely terrifying. Although its power is no less than that of a hand cannon, capable of taking down even a bull, it will have a powerful impact when actually fired.
Even a well-trained soldier would be involuntarily thrown back a few steps by the powerful recoil when firing this alchemical PPK with both hands. But Lin Ye not only remained motionless, but even held the gun with one hand, making him even more stylish than 007.
However, Masashi Tomiyama's shock had only just begun; what followed was truly awe-inspiring, like a series of climaxes.
Lin Ye raised an eyebrow slightly, for he saw that the power of this shot, enough to topple a bull, had had no effect on the jet-black dragon scale; its descent remained a straight line. However, this wasn't due to the scale's own weight, but rather because the immense kinetic energy surging onto it was absorbed by the scale's inherent properties in that instant—this was the real key.
Lin Ye couldn't help but become interested, and with this strong curiosity, he began to shoot at the falling dragon scales.
All that could be heard in the dimly lit carriage was the sound of frantic shooting.
