Genji had no answer, but fortunately there was a simulator, and there was still time, so she could try a few simulations first.
While waiting for the simulator to refresh, she was also making other preparations, such as... meeting Constantine.
After the Snake-Headed Eight Families and the Demon Clan merged into one, the Paradise House reopened. However, this time, the ruthless demons began to abide by the iron-fisted rules of the Japanese underworld. Sakurai Kogure was still the boss here, but his status was completely different.
Everyone knows that this former member of the Fierce Demon Clan, Ryoma, is now deeply trusted by the Snake-Headed Eight Families and is the bedmate of the young master of the Snake-Headed Eight Families. No one dares to disobey her, or rather, dares to disobey the one behind her.
In the eyes of these Japanese gangsters, Minamoto no Chizuru was even more terrifying than the current patriarch, Uesugi Kotsugi. During the battle of the Snake-Headed Eight Families, that girl who emerged from the mountains of corpses and seas of blood became the nightmare of countless people.
On this seemingly ordinary day at the Paradise Pavilion, which appeared no different from any other, the patriarch of the Snake Clan and his demon-like young master arrived discreetly.
No one noticed them; only some regular customers watched Sakurai Kogure walk away gracefully, their faces showing an unprecedented tenderness and joy.
In the completely emptied basement, the brass tank is steadily suspended in the superconducting magnetic field of cryogenic liquid nitrogen, surrounded by a half-meter-thick quartz glass wall, isolating all living things.
It lies dormant like a developing fetus, its mother being this specially designed oval-shaped quartz glass dome.
Yuan Zhinv looked up at the floating brass pot, her gaze distant.
"If Old Tang and I don't make it back in time, we'll use it to save Erii," Genji said softly.
Uesugi Kotsushi nodded, his eyes filled with fear as he looked at the brass pot.
At the same time, Old Tang at Genji Heavy Industries suddenly woke up from his dream. He had a nightmare and was covered in cold sweat when he woke up, but he couldn't remember the content of the nightmare.
For a moment he felt a little dazed, suddenly feeling as if he were standing on an endless snowfield, and from a distance beyond his sight came a low call: "Brother."
He looked up abruptly, only to see familiar furnishings, the standby computer emitting a faint light that illuminated the dim room, and Old Tang's... face covered in cold sweat.
He had this strange dream again; he had lost count of how many times it had happened.
He reached up and covered his chest. For some reason, he felt as if there was a void there, as if he had lost something very important.
But he couldn't remember what he had lost. In the darkness, Old Tang looked up in confusion, feeling only emptiness in his heart.
Chapter 131 The icy sea is too cold, I've come to take you home.
On the 89th day, you cleaved through the ice with a single strike, finally revealing the true form of the giant whale. It was undoubtedly a powerful descendant of the dragon race, but you were unsure if it was the King of the Ocean and Water.
[On the 90th day, Fingel was injured while protecting the corpse. Old Tang used all his strength to drag him out of the giant whale's mouth. You then took up your sword and faced the enemy alone.]
[This simulation has ended]
[Drawing reward items]
[Currently available: Word of Power Bronze Throne Trial Card *1, Winter Clothing *1, Bloodline Greatly Increased]
Please select one, host.
Yuan Zhinü stared blankly at the simulation results in front of her. This was her fourth simulation since returning to Japan, and this time, she was once again stuck on the giant whale.
Genjiro casually selected a trial card, feeling somewhat annoyed.
In every previous simulation, she failed to find the sleeping king of the ocean and water, but each time she encountered this giant whale.
What is certain is that this giant whale is a powerful dragon. Whether it is the Dragon King is unknown, but it may be a dragon servant guarding the Dragon King, like Samson, the King of Bronze and Fire, but far more powerful than Samson of the next generation.
In the simulation before that, Genjiro confronted it head-on, and the final result was rather embarrassing. She was no match for this big guy and only managed to escape thanks to Orochi's powerful recovery.
Fingel was in a terrible state; he was swallowed whole by a giant whale, along with his wife's corpse. As for the unfortunate old Tang, he mysteriously disappeared after entering Greenland, presumably kidnapped.
Having learned from experience, Yuan Zhinü was smarter in the last simulation. In the new simulation, she stayed close to Lao Tang, and then Fingel disappeared and never reappeared. It seems that this time he was killed by that second-generation black dragon on his way to find his wife.
Then, the final result this time was that she was swallowed by the giant whale, and the last thing she saw was Old Tang covered in flames, seemingly awakening.
Unwilling to give up, Yuan Zhinü adopted the avoidance principle in this fourth simulation, avoiding a direct confrontation with the giant whale and focusing on finding the embryo in Greenland.
She searched for over eighty days, almost breaking every single piece of ice, but she still couldn't hear the legendary huge heartbeat. The entire icy sea was so vast, yet it was quiet as if nothing was amiss.
Just as she was about to leave, she was blocked by a giant whale again. Although there was no result after 90 days, based on the previous encounters with giant whales, she probably wouldn't fare well either.
The information from these four simulations is limited. The first and most important point is that with Genji's current strength, she cannot confront the giant whale head-on. And the giant whale will come to her on its own initiative every time, as if it is driving away an uninvited guest.
Another point is that Fingel doesn't trust her. Every time he finds an opportunity, he sneaks away to search for the corpse alone. Beside the corpse is a sub-type black dragon, seemingly guarding something.
There are other mysterious entities in Greenland. If Old Tang isn't kept an eye on, he will be kidnapped. If he isn't kidnapped, he will awaken when he encounters that whale and faces mortal danger, as if he has been summoned by something, or as if he has simply been threatened.
Finally, Yuan Zhinü suspected that there were no dormant embryos in the icy sea at all. However, due to the limited number of simulations, she was not sure about this for the time being and needed to simulate again to try and find them.
However, she could no longer wait comfortably for the simulation, because a month had passed and Kassel College was about to start its semester.
Nono had already returned to the academy last week, but Yuan Zhinv kept delaying until Norma sent a message to inquire, and even Angers sent his greetings with great concern.
"Please ask for leave for me." In the bright and tidy office, Genji sat alone on a single sofa, her fingers rhythmically tapping on the table. She said to Uesugi Kotsugi, "I won't go back until Erii's matter is resolved."
“Okay.” Uesugi Kotsu naturally had no objections and made the call in front of Genji.
I turned on speakerphone, and after only two beeps, Ang Re's voice came through the phone.
"Hey?"
Uesugi Kotsugu coughed lightly and took the initiative to speak: "It's me, Uesugi Kotsugu."
“Oh, my dear old friend.” Angers’ voice was very warm and full of enthusiasm: “What brings you to call me? And when will my dear student Liuli return to school? Norma said she has missed two days of class.”
"I called you about this," Uesugi said. "Chijo may need to take a month's leave."
"Oh! Why?" Angers' voice carried a hint of worry, sounding very concerned. "Has something happened to my student?"
Uesugi glanced at the expressionless Genji, thought for a moment and replied, "Yes, she hasn't been feeling well lately. She's been absent-minded ever since she came back from China, and she also broke her leg a while ago and needs to rest properly."
"You broke your leg? Is it serious? Should I go see a doctor?"
"No need for that. She'll tell you when she gets back to the academy."
"Alright then, wishing you a speedy recovery."
The call was disconnected, and Uesugi Kotsugi looked helpless: "Isn't that a bit too perfunctory? With your bloodline, even if you had a bunch of broken bones, you wouldn't heal in no time, right?"
"It doesn't matter. No matter what reason we give, Angers knows it's a reason. He's probably already preparing to investigate us."
"Then why not just drop out?" Uesugi asked with genuine concern. "From my current perspective, I can't understand why you insist on going to Kassel College."
This was a tricky question; even Genjiro was stumped.
She initially came into contact with Kassel College because she was being controlled too much by Wang Jiang and wanted to find an opportunity to break free. She did manage to do so, and in the process, she took revenge for being controlled.
Later, she went to Kassel College again, also for those dragon kings. Now Constantine and Old Tang have fallen into her hands, and there is still a little dragon girl who is hiding somewhere and has not yet enrolled.
However, knowing that her hideout is in the Beijing subway, this "Little Dragon Girl" can't really escape her fate. At the same time, she has also gotten to know and connected with Lu Mingfei, so it seems that Kassel College is really unnecessary.
Strangely enough, Yuan Zhinv never considered dropping out of school. The word "dropping out" never even crossed her mind. It was as if mentioning it was something extremely rebellious.
After thinking for a while, unable to figure out the reason, Yuan Zhinu said seriously, "Since I've already studied, I must get this university diploma."
Uesugi Koshi was dazed: "...You've been keeping the Dragon King as a pet, why would you care about this?"
"Of course, otherwise how would I prove I'm cultured?"
Is it a culture where students fail all subjects?
Uesugi was vaguely thinking to himself, but he didn't dare to say it aloud, so he awkwardly changed the subject: "When are you leaving for Greenland?"
"Tonight," said Yuan Zhinv.
"So fast?!" Uesugi Koshi exclaimed in surprise. "Aren't you going to prepare a little more?"
"Preparations are almost complete. The rest is up to us to improvise," said Yuan Zhinv, glancing at the time. "I'll go call Old Tang."
As she spoke, she turned and left, pausing just before stepping out of the room. She said softly, "Don't tell anyone I'm leaving. If I don't come back, just use Constantine to save Erii. Don't worry about Norton. Even if I die, I'll deal with him before I die."
Her tone was so calm and collected, but her words were so heavy; she was essentially giving her final instructions, because she didn't know if she would come back alive.
Uesugi Kotsushi's eyes reddened: "Child..."
But the girl didn't turn around, only saying, "If I really die, find a good family for Xiaomu."
"She has waited for me long enough, so let's not waste her whole life on it."
……
Kassel College, deep beneath the library.
The man stood in the darkness, silently watching the transparent figure floating in front of him.
She was a long-haired girl wearing a silk nightgown, so cute it was almost unreal.
"You've been drinking." The girl spoke softly, "So many years have passed, and you've changed a lot, but you still can't shake this bad habit of drinking?"
“I once thought I would never drink again… because if I hadn’t gotten drunk that night, maybe I wouldn’t have lost you.” The man’s voice was hoarse: “But over the years I still can’t live without alcohol, because when I’m not drinking I think of you.”
"It's been almost ten years, and you still can't forgive yourself? We won a Pyrrhic victory, but we still succeeded."
"But I was the only one who came back alive."
"We're still watching over you the same way as before!"
As soon as the girl finished speaking, several beams of light appeared simultaneously from above, in front, behind, and to the sides of the man, with a semi-transparent figure standing in each beam of light.
There was a girl in leather with a neat red short haircut, a cold boy wearing sunglasses, a man in black with a solemn face like a monk, and a charming girl with long, curly hair tilting her head. Including EVA, there were six people in total.
They smiled in unison, like the smiles in an old photograph, still as radiant as ever after many years.
The man kept his head down, neither looking at them nor speaking.
“EVA, please don’t play this kind of game.” The man shook his head: “They’re not here. They’re all sleeping thousands of kilometers away in the icy sea, locked in those metal diving suits… And I’m about to go find them.”
All the other beams of light disappeared, leaving only EVA. The girl reached out her ethereal hand to touch the man's cheek, but the man stepped back and dodged.
The girl silently looked at the man's resolute face and said softly, "Do we really have to go? This looks like a trap; we might die there."
"Then let him die there." The man suddenly laughed. "That would be the best ending."
"If I could die with you, I probably wouldn't have to suffer like this. You know, I really hate memories. They always make me lose track of who I really am."
"EVA, is it very cold underwater? It's okay, I'll come and pick you up right now."
The girl in the beam of light silently shed tears, which splashed onto the metal floor, creating a silvery-blue shimmer.
But the man didn't look at her. He turned and left, his back lonely yet resolute. He calmly walked into the darkness, which gradually swallowed him up until he could no longer be seen.
It's like walking peacefully into death.
