Dragon Raja: Starting with acquiring Orochi, a counterattack against the gods.

However, tonight was unusually peaceful. The crazy guy in the equipment department didn't blow up buildings, and there was no shortage of funds or deficits. Everything was so calm that Guderian fell asleep, Manstein started writing academic papers, and Schneider was also a little unaccustomed to it.

As the chairman of the executive department, managing a department full of lunatics and eccentrics, Schneider is good at dealing with all kinds of chaos. Normally, there is no day when the executive department is not chaotic, but today is an exception.

Schneider was even considering writing a paper himself. Although he was a rough man who only knew how to wield weapons, he had always wanted to write more papers so that he would not fall behind the other professors in academics.

Especially after he had two outstanding students, other professors couldn't compete with him and could only put pressure on him in terms of papers.

Speaking of which, it was quite surprising that his good student, Kazama Ruri, didn't come to school for the new semester. Apparently, she had accidentally injured her leg. To be honest, Schneider had never met an S-class student who had accidentally broken her leg while on vacation, and he was very curious.

So he's been considering whether to visit Japan recently. He even asked the principal, but the principal replied that he needed to think about it, and Schneider could only wait for news.

"Something's wrong! The executive officers monitoring the Greenland ice sea have detected an anomaly. It seems there's been a major underwater earthquake, which could threaten their safety. They're requesting an evacuation." The female secretary, her high heels clicking, ran up to Schneider and handed him an application.

The commotion was quite loud, startling both Manstein and Guderian, who looked up in bewilderment.

When Schneider heard the words "Greenland Ice Sea," he fell into an eerie silence.

“If it’s just a minor incident like an earthquake, let them evacuate if they want,” Manstein said, clearly not taking the matter seriously.

But just as he was about to receive the application form for approval, the door to the central control room was pushed open from the outside.

"Good evening, gentlemen." The elderly man with gray hair walked in with a gentlemanly air and smiled slightly at everyone.

Even in the dead of night, this guy was dressed in an elegant suit, making one wonder if he had some unique fondness for suits.

The moment Guderian saw this man, his drowsiness vanished without a trace, and he instantly became respectful: "Headmaster, what brings you here?"

Angers entered with an air of elegance, smiling at Manstein and Guderian: "Gentlemen, may I speak with Professor Schneider alone?"

Guderian and Manstein exchanged a glance, and although they were puzzled, they nodded. With a wave of Manstein's hand, the other agents in the control room left in an orderly manner, and soon only the two of them remained in the control room.

“Norma, leave this room. Let us talk alone,” Angers said.

“Understood. For the next 15 minutes, the central control room will be outside my monitoring range.” After Norma finished speaking, all the equipment in the central control room stopped working, the cameras and recording devices were locked, and the lights were turned off one by one.

Norma left, the surveillance was deactivated, and the central control room was now isolated outside the campus. The shadows of trees swayed on the high windows, making it look like the depths of an ancient church.

Schneider slowly raised his masked face and spoke in a hoarse voice, "Is there something unusual happening in the Greenland ice sea again?"

“Yes.” Angers admitted it directly, looking Schneider straight in the eye without flinching: “You know better than I do what might be hidden there.”

"But it's been 10 years, and there's been absolutely no movement."

Since the Kassel College paid a heavy price in the Greenland ice sea ten years ago, it has been monitoring that area, but has yet to find anything.

until today.

Schneider lowered his head, seemingly unwilling to recall or face the past: "Besides the underwater earthquake, is there any other concrete news?"

"No."

"That might just be a normal underwater earthquake."

“But Fingel is gone,” Angers suddenly said.

Schneider subconsciously looked up, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"He asked his advisor for leave, saying he wasn't feeling well and wanted to rest, and then left the college a few days ago."

“I couldn’t find any flight information for him; he just vanished into thin air.” Angers paused here, “Then Greenland started acting strangely. Isn’t all of this too much of a coincidence?”

"You mean... Fingel went to Greenland alone? Why would he do that?"

“Who knows?” The handsome old man looked out the dark window. “I might have to go to Greenland.”

Schneider was clearly surprised: "You went in person? Perhaps it was just a coincidence."

“Maybe,” Angers said, “but I can’t feel at ease unless I see these ghostly things with my own eyes.”

Schneider hesitated before nodding: "When will you be leaving?"

"Now."

Schneider was even more surprised. It was the middle of the night, yet the old man seemed impatient. One couldn't help but wonder if he would even get stabbed twice before leaving if he encountered his student Fingel there.

However, Angers' visit was clearly only for notification and had no intention of discussing anything, so Schneider could only say, "Then during your absence from the academy, I will be in the control room, so please rest assured."

Unexpectedly, Angers refused him: "No."

Seeing the surprise in Schneider's eyes, Angers said, "I need you to go to Japan."

"what?"

"Didn't you want to go to Japan to visit your students? Go ahead, the sooner the better." The handsome old man turned and left, but his voice remained.

"Help me check what our S-class students are doing, and whether they're still obediently staying in Japan. If not..."

The old man didn't finish his sentence, but whether it was his imagination or not, Schneider sensed a faint killing intent in the unfinished words. He froze on the spot, but the principal had already left and he had no chance to ask any more questions.

Not long after, Manstein and Guderian returned, discussing something, along with the other commissioners, and the central control room became lively again.

Schneider fell silent, seemingly deep in thought, leaving Guderian and Manstein unsure how to ask him anything.

The girl's tone was utterly incredulous when the secretary spoke again.

"The exploration team detected that the temperature in the Greenland ice sea is rising!"

Everyone was stunned. Guderian asked, completely bewildered, "Why is the temperature of the Arctic Ocean rising? Has global warming already threatened the North and South Poles?"

"It wasn't that kind of rise, it was very sudden!" The secretary's voice was urgent: "The survey team said it was like a sudden volcanic eruption, even the glaciers are melting!"

Everyone looked at each other, completely bewildered. For a moment, the entire central control room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Unbeknownst to them, deep within the Greenland ice sea, the dark clouds had been completely dispersed, and the cool moonlight shone down without obstruction, adding to the chill of the vast ice sheet.

Yuan Zhinu lay prostrate on the ground, her enormous wings flapping unwillingly behind her, yet she could not stand up. Countless ice crystals spread up the ice layer, fixing her hands and feet to the ground. The ice layer grew thicker and thicker, as if countless hands were imprisoning her, preventing her from breaking free.

Orochi was frantically healing the frostbitten wounds on her body. Her scales kept breaking off and growing back. The two extremes of rebirth and destruction were playing out on her, making her look like a monster.

Compared to her, the petite figure walking slowly appeared so elegant.

The girl was dressed entirely in plain colors, her skin so white it was almost translucent, and her light golden hair almost blended into the falling snow. She walked barefoot on the ice, each step supported by glistening ice flowers, like a fairy in the snow.

She slowly walked towards Genjiro, tilting her head as if she were an innocent girl unaware of the ways of the world, yet her face was expressionless and her eyes devoid of warmth, making her seem like a flawless and exquisitely beautiful doll.

When she was two or three meters away from Yuan Zhinü, Leviathan stopped and sighed softly, "What a pity, such excellent bloodline."

"However, this is something you brought upon yourself."

Before she finished speaking, the girl slowly raised her hand.

But just as she was about to finish off Genji, the figure on the ground suddenly stopped struggling. The next second, she saw the ice layer controlling Genji rapidly melt away, and something was radiating intense heat. Upon closer inspection, it seemed to be that strange, blood-red longsword.

Before anyone knew it, a powerful crimson flame once again emanated from the blade.

Before Leviathan could react, the gentle domain expanded, its boundaries glowing faintly. A thousand times the weight was instantly applied to her, and before she could react, her raised hand slammed down.

Words of Power: Royal Authority.

The overwhelming supergravity was unleashed in an instant, but the power that could crush Deadpool to dust only made Leviathan lower his hand. The ice made a terrible creaking sound, but the petite girl seemed completely unaffected, only slightly frowning.

However, Genji had no intention of expecting her useless brother's useless words of power to have any effect. She had gone to great lengths to feign weakness, and Leviathan had finally gotten close. All she wanted was a moment of delay.

Are all Dragon Kings as arrogant as you?

A faint mocking voice rang out. Ignoring her still cracking body, Yuan Zhinu exerted all her strength, and the ice crystals binding her shattered instantly. Without hesitation, she swung her sword at the petite figure in front of her.

The blade traced a perfect circle, the arc glowing crimson, looking more like the sun during a total solar eclipse. The moon temporarily blocked the sunlight, but a bright corona still emanated from around the moon's shadow.

The ferocious-looking Genji stood in the very center of the black sun, her enormous wings blotting out the sky, and her pale scales shimmering brilliantly in the reflection of the light.

She recited ancient testimonies, like a Buddha statue standing amidst flowing clouds and flames, extremely serene and dignified.

Word of Power: Black Sun.

Chapter 144 The Desperados Have No Way Out

In the vast darkness, Genji chanted ancient incantations in a low voice, her crimson longsword so bright it was almost blinding, as if she were holding a burning piece of steel.

Her enormous wings suddenly spread open, her fiery golden eyes burning brightly, and she hovered in the air like a giant cross, the reflections on her scales illuminating the darkness.

Everyone instinctively held their breath, witnessing this divine scene. Rather than calling it a spell, it was more like a ritual—a ritual in which a mere human body reached the realm of the Dragon King.

Unlike Uesugi Kotsugi, who is still only a hybrid, Minamoto no Chizuru, who has already become one of the best among the next generation, has further strengthened her bloodline after awakening Orochi, and seems to be only one step away from becoming a god.

Yet this one step seemed so far away, like an insurmountable chasm. The domain created by the Black Sun technique far surpassed that of Uesugi Kotetsu, a power that even the Dragon King could not easily ignore, for Leviathan's expression finally changed.

She finally realized she had been careless, but it was too late to back down.

The black sun slowly began to rotate, devouring the air at an astonishing speed and stirring up a fierce gale.

In an instant, even the wind direction changed, and countless ice shards and seawater were swept up by the gale and carried towards the black sun.

Leviathan's long hair flew wildly as she raised her head in the gale. She suddenly stretched out her hand, and countless seawater instantly condensed into solid ice, which she hurled fiercely at Genji.

But those sharp ice blocks were sucked away by the black sun as soon as they formed. The black sun suddenly contracted, and the suddenly intensified gale sucked cracks into the ice layer.

The intense heat rapidly melted everything around it, and Leviathan, which was only a few meters away from Genji, was not sucked away by the gale, but its whole body was red and shiny, like burning charcoal.

Yuan Zhinü suddenly flapped her wings and swung her long sword back at Leviathan. The girl tried to block it with her bare hands, but was still thrown several meters away.

But even with such power, Leviathan could not be contained. The girl's seemingly delicate body was like an unyielding ancient reef in the deep sea. The black sun could not pull her away, and she was even slowly withdrawing from the domain's range.

Seeing this, Yuan Zhinü brandished her long sword, her wings flapped violently, and her eyes shone even brighter. Before everyone's astonished eyes, four overlapping black suns reappeared in the sky!

Five black suns began to rotate simultaneously, almost blotting out the sky. The terrifying suction force increased dramatically once again, and the ice layer, which was tens of meters thick, suddenly melted and broke. Countless ice blocks dissolved into white steam, forming a vast white expanse behind Genji, and finally drifted towards the dark sea.

No matter how frigid Leviathan summoned, it was instantly melted by the scorching heat. The seawater roared and surged, but it could only be sucked away and swallowed by the black sun the moment it approached Genji.

The bitter cold vanished, and her injuries healed rapidly. Due to the high temperature, the white scales all over Yuan Zhinü's body turned a bright red. She flapped her enormous wings and hovered above the broken ice, swinging her sword at Leviathan again and again.

The pressure on the blade increased, turning it crimson red, and each swing produced a dazzling burst of fire!

She is a chariot, an iron cavalry, crushing everything in her path.

So what if he's the Dragon King? So what if he's a god? Slay them all!

As Yuan Zhinü slashed, she roared. Her voice was like that of a dragon, her head and horns were ferocious yet majestic and solemn, her appearance somewhere between depravity and holiness, while the petite girl was slashed and forced to retreat step by step, it was almost impossible to tell who was the dragon king.

Fingal and Old Tang, hiding in the water, were completely dumbfounded. The ice was melting, and they could even feel the temperature of the seawater rising.

What a terrifying and bizarre scene this was! They had all witnessed Leviathan's ability to freeze several kilometers of ocean with a single slash, yet Genji was actually able to overpower the Dragon King with her attacks? And even force the Dragon King to retreat step by step?!

For a moment, they were even a little dazed, wondering who the monster really was.

But at that moment, a high-pitched whale roar rang out, and a huge black shadow rapidly approached. The extreme cold would melt instantly once it got close to the range of the Black Sun, so the giant whale did not use its incantation.
