The final selection of those who leave is not determined by subjective will, but by drawing lots.
This group of pioneering humans, possessing the greatest scientific wisdom and research spirit, gambled their future on random probability, choosing to let God balance the scales.
In just six months, human life has been completely transformed.
But Binhai City, the city where Lu Mingfei was born, still retains its tranquility, because it is the territory of Heimdall, the king of the sea and water.
In mythology, Heimdall is the gatekeeper of the Rainbow Bridge, and now the "Black Serpent" is also like a gatekeeper, watching over this city.
Angers moved its headquarters to this city, including secretly transferring Eva's mainframe; it's one of the few places where one can get a good night's sleep.
However, most of the residents living in this city are unaware that they are protected by the Dragon King, nor do they need to know.
Dragons have become synonymous with disaster in people's minds, with a deterrent power equivalent to earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions. If you tell them that a high-level dragon lives in this city, they will not think of it as a guardian, but will just run away like crazy.
The world has never been at peace, and everyone now feels the weight of that statement.
This is probably the bet between Lu Mingfei and the Black King. One side is humans, and the other side is dragons, but Lu Mingfei is a cheat code; whichever side he joins will win.
Dragons and humans are both races created by the gods. The gods should not interfere with them, but should give equal love to both.
Fortunately, a bug was left on the human side.
Su Enxi looked at Erii, who was sitting quietly by the bed.
She wore a white off-the-shoulder taffeta dress, her silky deep red hair cascading over her shoulders. Her hands were on her legs, and her eyes were fixed on Lu Mingfei's face. She was very quiet, not saying a word or moving a finger.
Even after Su Enxi opened the door, she didn't look away.
With her senses, she knew Su Enxi and Jiu De Mai had arrived when the car entered the hospital, but she only had eyes for one person and didn't care about anything else.
She didn't look like a doll sitting there; she was different from before. As Su Enxi entered, she couldn't help but be affected by her aura, and her mood became calm and peaceful.
She placed those toys next to Lu Mingfei, probably because she was afraid he would be lonely when she wasn't around.
When she felt lonely, she would take out her toys and play games with them beside her, but now she has left all her toys to Lu Mingfei because she loves the person in front of her more than she loves herself.
Even the usually noisy Mai Shude didn't cause any trouble in this room.
Erii Uesugi is no longer the little girl who needed someone to hold an umbrella for her. She can hold an umbrella herself and also keep a large group of people dry.
Six months ago, Mai Shude treated her like a little sister, but she proved herself and that leaving Lu Mingfei would not make her weak.
She is the bug that humanity has preserved, the ace of aces, the king of kings.
With her on the battlefield, victory was inevitable.
She not only possesses the blood of a dragon, but also the unwavering heart of a dragon.
In the past six months, she has played for Kassel several times, and each time she has won by a landslide.
Those who don't know her well think she's a cold and ruthless dragon slayer.
She was cold, violent, beautiful, and dazzling, like a Valkyrie reincarnated. Many people worshipped her, but no one had ever seen her gentleness.
Only in this room would she let down her guard.
A month ago, Mai Shude took her to Barcelona to exterminate the dragons there, and they only returned yesterday to rest a bit.
With so many dragons, Erii was often required to travel continuously to support battlefields around the world. She once went two weeks without sleep and didn't even have time to take a bath. She never complained, but she made a request to Angers: she had to come back to spend at least one day a month with Sakura.
No matter how bumpy the journey, she could calm down once she was back by Lu Mingfei's side.
Mai Shude remembered that before she was taken to the hospital last night, she was sitting in front of the mirror getting ready.
She changed into a clean dress, tied her hair up with an exquisite and lovely headband, and took out the spotless wedding diamond ring from the jewelry box. She never wore this ring when she went to the battlefield, for fear that the diamond on it would get dusty.
She got her hair permed, braided it into a princess style, and picked out socks and shoes all by herself, as if she were going to an important date.
Being by the side of the person she loves—that's her date.
Chapter 449 Erii Uesugi (Part 2)
Su Enxi and Jiu De Mai came to this ward, not to play around, but to inform Erii of some news.
“Angers informed me that this leave ends on the 5th, and they asked me to come and ask for your opinion.” Su Enxi sat down next to Erii.
"Just come pick me up when you leave," Erii said.
Today is the 3rd, and she has two more days to stay here, which is like a short holiday for her.
"You still need to get some rest..." Su Enxi sighed.
"It's okay, I'm not sleepy." Erii shook her head.
"What would you like to eat tonight? I'll have Constantine bring it to you."
"I want to eat fried rice with eggs."
"Just fried rice?"
"We also need vegetables and fruits."
"Vegetables and fruits... well, I'll arrange those for you myself."
"A balanced diet is essential."
"Don't worry, it will be very nutritious." Su Enxi took out her phone and sent a message to a Dragon King whose contact name was "Little Fortune": "Long Legs, you can sit here for a while. I'm going to the dean to check the recent test results."
"Okay." Mai Shude agreed. There was no air conditioning outside, and it was unbearably hot. She was too lazy to go out anyway.
Besides, being alone with Erii was not unfamiliar to her.
Since Lu Mingfei was hospitalized, it has been almost entirely Mai Shude who has been taking care of Erii's life.
Although Erii is more familiar with Su Enxi, Su Enxi is a logistics personnel and cannot go to the battlefield. The only woman who can accompany her on the battlefield at any time is Shude Mai.
In fact, it was the one who was weary from the long journey that was Jiude Mai.
Mai Shutoku has always been Erii's dedicated driver and spare body pillow.
After Lu Mingfei left, Mai Shude was arguably the person who spent the most time with Erii.
It felt like having a little sister. Sometimes I would talk to her, and if possible, we would take a bath together. When we slept, I would comfortably be her pillow.
Mai Shutoku's daily routine is basically the same as Erii's. She takes Erii around the world to slay dragons and is also responsible for handling a series of events such as additional logistics management, transportation, and personnel handover.
She was Erii's personal secretary, so naturally she wouldn't be so reserved.
"The objective of this mission is to detect a group of dragons from the Republic of El Salvador." Mai Shutoku sat down and naturally began chatting with Erii.
"Your brother, Yuan Zhisheng, is also there. He initiated the request for assistance. Among those dragons, it seems there are more than three second-generation species. However, the situation is not too urgent yet. Our main goal is to go to neighboring Honduras. It is said that more than five second-generation species have been detected there. Eyewitness reports indicate that they seem to be heading to El Salvador."
“Number 17…” Erii looked up: “I want to be back before the 17th.”
"So eager?" Mai Shude rarely heard her ask for such a specific return date.
“Yes, because the 17th is Sakura’s birthday.” Erii nodded.
“I see…” Sade Mai glanced at Lu Mingfei lying down: “It shouldn’t be difficult to resolve before the 17th, but I’m afraid Angers will push some difficult task onto us again.”
Erii lowered her head and grasped Lu Mingfei's hand, which had an IV tube inserted.
"Don't worry, we'll definitely be back safely. Since it's the boss's birthday, how about we throw a birthday party?"
"Is it okay?" Erii looked over and blinked.
“Why not?” Mai Shude crossed her legs. “I’ll just tell Potato Chips when I get back.”
"Mm." Erii nodded, gently smoothed Lu Mingfei's bangs, and touched his forehead.
...
Su Enxi pushed open the door to the ward and froze, seeing only the back of a black swivel chair.
It seems the person sitting in the chair is not tall enough to see the back of his head.
This was originally an ordinary white hospital room, without antique bookshelves, incense burners with burning sandalwood, swivel chairs, or celadon vases with flowers.
Just as she was stunned, two plump Siamese cats jumped off the table, wagging their tails.
"Go say hello to my brother and me for me, and wish him a happy birthday in advance." A playful voice came from behind the chair.
"Meow." The two cats turned around and meowed.
Su Enxi watched as the two fat cats waddled past her feet, walked out of the door, and continued down the corridor until they stopped in front of the elevator. She looked up at the elevator buttons.
“Shouldn’t they be at Blackrock Mansion?” Su Enxi asked.
"I called an express plane to send them over this morning. It's really dangerous to fly these days. Luckily, they didn't collide with any dragons in the sky."
Why didn't you tell us beforehand?
"What a surprise! Men must learn to prepare surprises."
A voice came from behind the transfer.
"Alright, Miss Su, stop standing there and go press the elevator button for our Takanashi and Dekomori."
"Cats ride elevators? Shouldn't they climb over the roof?"
"Only stray cats would do something so rude and indecent. Stop complaining, they're already impatient. Remember, they're going to the second floor, so don't press the wrong button."
"Anyway, you're the boss, so what you say goes." Su Enxi spread her hands.
Footsteps echoed down the corridor as she reached the elevator and pressed the down button.
A dozen seconds later, the elevator doors opened, and two fat cats walked in, their chubby faces facing outwards. They had gotten even fatter since I last saw them.
Su Enxi stepped one foot outside the door and the other inside, craning half her body into the elevator lobby and pressing the button for the second floor.
As she stepped out the door, she was shocked to see the two fat cats bow to her as if to say thank you. What a ghost!
She returned to the "Dean's Office" and casually sat down on the sofa.
The swivel chair remained facing away from her, showing no sign of turning around.
“I have some questions for the Dean. Those dragons are looking for the remnants of the World Tree, aren’t they?” Su Enxi said, crossing her legs. “Because of the movement of continental plates, the roots of the World Tree have moved to all parts of the world. But what use do they have for these remnants? I haven’t seen them dig them up.”
"Who knows? Maybe it's just a smokescreen, and they don't actually want the World Tree at all."
"Dean, are you going to keep us in suspense as soon as you wake up?"
“That’s not important. What’s important is the third ‘Gungnir’. We have to get it back.”
"If Loki doesn't show up, where are we going to get it?"
