Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei Returns from Warhammer Retirement

Chapter 386 Legendary Investigator (4K)

Yanling·Emperor.

This speech spirit ranked first in the periodic table of speech spirits is the beginning of all speech spirits.

It doesn't have any materialized effects, it's just a bloodline call.

If the bloodline of the user and the user is very different, it may also cause spiritual coercion.

It is said that in the ancient times, Nidhogg's spiritual domain could cover the whole of Europe and even parts of Asia.

The sound of his low growl on the throne swept across the European continent and across the Ural Mountains. Wherever he went, the blood descendants of the dragon clan bowed in the direction of the throne.

As long as the dragons and hybrids are affected by the Emperor Yanling, except for extremely weak or pure human and white king blood.

After the fall of the Black King, there is no complete version of the word spirit, but high-level dragons can still use it, and some alchemy equipment can also produce similar effects.

Ordinary mixed races can't use Lingling·Emperor, but they can read its dragon script as a means of testing bloodlines.

Like now.

"Praise be to my king's awakening, destruction is life"

Fingel recited the Dragon Emperor's secret ritual incantation, and Klein's widened eyes faintly shone with a golden light.

"It's really a mixed race."

Lu Mingfei raised his eyebrows.

That would be easy, since he is a mixed race, he can be justified and supervised.

"What did you do to me?"

As expected of someone who has been stunned by his own research all year round, Klein quickly woke up from the hallucination of bloodline resonance.

"Fingal, tell him about the history of the mixed race."

Lu Mingfei ordered.

"Yes. Come on, let's sit and talk slowly, and we will be brothers who eat together in a pot from now on."

Fingel put his arms around Klein's shoulders with a smile, and pressed him on the chair.

"This matter, it must have been told from tens of thousands of years ago."

After a 15-minute crash course on the history of the dragon clan, Klein roughly understood everything.

"That is to say, because I am a mixed race, you plan to tie me to a place called Kassel College."

he concluded.

"It's ugly to say that it's tied. It's the leader who invites you to be the mystic consultant of our battle group."

Fingel corrected his wording.

"Can I not go?"

Klein asked hesitantly.

He was used to staying at Miskatonic University and planned to stay there to teach.

Also, he doesn't like America.

"If you were an ordinary person, then we would definitely not force you. But you are a mixed race, and you have just awakened your bloodline, so there is nothing you can do."

Finger said with regret.

Although the bloodline level should not be high, there is also the possibility of going berserk.

"Aren't you fishing law enforcement?"

Klein almost laughed at their brazenness.

"Hey, it's not a bad thing to be a mixed race. After awakening your bloodline, you will gain strength far beyond that of ordinary people."

Finger reassured.

"I study mysticism just out of hobby, not to gain power."

He shook his head.

If what he longed for was power, what would be placed in the dormitory would not be all kinds of books, but witchcraft materials.

"First, you don't need to participate in the battle, you can continue to do your research."

"Second, the battle group will be responsible for your research funding, and there is no upper limit."

"Third, our battle group currently has more than 100 billion US dollars in financial reserves."

Lu Mingfei opened his mouth and said.

"Deal, but you can't restrict my personal freedom."

Klein said.

"You can move around freely in Kassel Academy, but you need permission from me or Brother Chu Zihang to leave Kassel."

"make a deal."

Klein is just too lazy to use his brain on things other than research, but it's not that he doesn't know the world.

Since the other party let him know the secret of the mixed race, it is naturally impossible to let him go.

Klein has also heard about the reputation of the Windsor family, and it is basically impossible to escape from the hands of such a top power person.

Moreover, the conditions offered by the other party are also good, with more than 100 billion US dollars in funds, and there is no upper limit on research funding. It is exciting to think about it.

Don't talk about genuine books in the future, even those ancient documents can get genuine ones.

Seeing that he agreed happily, Lu Mingfei also nodded in satisfaction.

There is Fingel for alchemy research, Merlin for scientific research, Klein for occult research, and the battle group's think tank team is basically complete.

However, Fingel's main business is still fighting and doing chores, and if there is a chance, he still needs to find a full-time alchemy think tank.

"You have a week to deal with your own affairs, and I will ask Finger to stay and help you. If you still want to continue your studies here, I will also communicate with the school."

Lu Mingfei said.

It is both help and surveillance. Finger is more flexible and able to grasp the scale between them.

Yuanzhinv and Chu Zihang are also fine, but their faces are not as good as Finger's.

"Thank you, Captain."

In addition to the tough attitude, the other party was very thoughtful in their arrangements, and Klein's words from the Chapter Commander were somewhat sincere.

"Chapter Leader, the school has made arrangements and invited a professor named Randolph Carter to provide consultation."

At this moment, Chu Zihang called.

"Got it. Do you know this Professor Randolph Carter?"

Lu Mingfei asked Klein.

"Of course, Professor Carter is the best scholar in our university, and he is a well-deserved master in mysticism and folklore."

Klein said happily, his face full of admiration.

"Then why didn't you ask him to be your mentor?"

Fingel remembered his mentor as Amanisis.

"Because Professor Carter is on the go all year round and has no time to take care of students."

Klein sighed.

In fact, Professor Amanisis is also very good, knowledgeable, and very kind to students, but there is a very serious shortcoming, he always pauses when he speaks.

It is enough to be anxious at ordinary times, but it is even more frustrating when discussing problems.

"Well. Have you ever heard of Innsmouth?"

Lu Mingfei asked suddenly.

"Innsmouth? No, is it a person or a place?"

Klein asked back.

"I don't know, it should be a place name."

He said briefly about Innsmouth.

"I'll ask Instructor Amanisis later. However, if there is only one person who knows about this place, it is Professor Randolph Carter."

Klein said firmly.

It can be heard that he admires this Randolph Carter very much.

"Why is this Rent really so powerful?"

Fingal doubted.

"Let's put it this way, the University of Michigan has a special title, investigator."

Klein introduced.

Investigators are people who travel around the world to investigate mysterious events.

This is not an official position, but a conventional title.

Whether it is a faculty member or a student, as long as they are recognized by everyone, they can get the title of investigator.

The legendary investigator is the top among all investigators, only the most knowledgeable investigators who have solved countless unimaginable mysterious events can get this honor.

Since the establishment of the school, there have been only three legendary investigators.

Francis Thurston, professor of anthropology, William Dyer, professor of geology, and Randolph Carter, professor of folklore.

And Randolph Carter is the only legendary investigator who is still alive. The first two have been issued obituaries by the school, but they kept secret about the cause of death.

"Sounds similar to what the executive department does."

Fingal interjected.

Indeed, in addition to dealing with runaway hybrids and dragons, the daily work of the Executive Department is also to investigate and search for mysterious events and items.

Most of those mysterious events are non-existent, and the remaining small parts are related to dragons or alchemy items.

According to this, the investigators should often collide with the executive department.

"What are some of the most famous mysteries you have investigated?"

he asked.

"There are many, scary old man, Uzzah's cat, reanimated corpse, strange house in the fog"

Klein is thorough and briefly describes the background of each event.

"None of this is recorded in the files of the Ministry of Enforcement."

Fingal's face was not very good-looking.

In order to investigate the Greenland incident clearly, he almost rummaged through the archives of the Executive Department, but he remembered any special incidents.

Among other things, the incidents in which dozens of people disappeared will definitely be registered in the executive department.

Even if it has been solved by someone, the executive department will investigate the whole story.

If not, it was either covered up by other mixed-race forces, or the place where it happened was too remote.

As for the above two points, the incidents mentioned by Klein do not match.

Then, after eliminating the possibility of him lying, there is only one answer left, and these incidents were blocked.

The executive bureau and investigators were separated into two worlds by some force.

Thinking of this possibility, Fingel felt a chill down his back.

"Don't be afraid, no matter how many enemies humans have, we will win the final victory."

Lu Mingfei pressed his shoulder.

The palm as heavy as Mount Tai gave Fingel confidence.

"Human beings are really full of disasters."

He laughed at himself.

Scientists and many ordinary people have been keen to find and prove the existence of intelligent creatures other than humans.

But when those existences appeared in front of human beings one by one, what they brought was not surprises, but panic and disaster.

"The universe has always been like this. In the dark nebula where even the stars cannot shine, there is only malice and destruction hidden."

Lu Mingfei said lightly.

Fingel only knew about dragons and those unknown existences in the age of mythology, and he had personally eliminated dozens of terrifying aliens.

And for those aliens, he also came from the darkness in the universe.

Led by Klein, they arrived at Randolph Carter's office.

They were also lucky, just in time for Carter to come back for a rest.

The legendary investigator's office is very luxurious, directly a three-story villa, but it also fits his status in the school.

Entering the living room, everyone was already sitting on the sofa waiting for them.

Seeing Lu Mingfei come in, the members of the battle group including Connie Windsor got up immediately.

Seeing this, the assistant principal and Randolph Carter also stood up out of courtesy.

"Hello, Professor Carter, I have already learned about your deeds from Klein."

Lu Mingfei gave a one-handed salute to the legendary investigator.

Anyone who fights for the survival of mankind deserves his admiration.

"Hi, Lu Mingfei, regiment leader, I have already learned your name from your subordinates."

Seeing his sincerity, Randolph Carter also responded politely.

"Let's all sit down and talk, Randolph, I remember you have some good Ceylon tea here."

When he is not around, the assistant principal is responsible for the daily maintenance of the villa, so he knows his inventory well.

"Then trouble you to be our maid, Ms. Pallez."

Randolph Carter made a joke.

"Fuck you, Randolph, be careful I put laxatives in your milk tea."

The assistant principal laughed and cursed, then turned and went into the kitchen.

Soon, several cups of sweet milk tea were served.

"I heard from Pallez that you want to ask me some questions about folklore."

Randolph Carter took a sip of his tea and got straight to the point.

His time is precious, even the Windsor family can't let him waste it.

"A word to be precise, Innsmouth, has Professor Carter heard of it?"

Lu Mingfei asked.

"Innsmouth."

Randolph Carter twirled his teacup, lost in thought.

"I did hear about this place, decades ago."

He suddenly woke up and said.

When Randolph Carter was a young boy, he was already keen to collect all kinds of strange things.

Once he heard that a crew member had traveled all over the world and witnessed many mysterious events, so he came to visit.

The crew member was unable to go to sea because of a serious illness, so he settled in a small town in the Australian outback.

When Randolph Carter saw him, he was dying, and his previous savings had been squandered.

Randolph Carter gained his trust on the condition of helping to deal with the funeral affairs, and learned a lot of secrets from the crew.

A week later, the crew member died in the best local hospital.

Before he died, he seemed to have seen something extremely terrifying, and his eyeballs almost protruded from their sockets.

The crew tightly grasped Randolph Carter's hand. If it wasn't for personal experience, it would be hard to believe that a dying person could have such great strength, even a young man who had been exercising all the year round couldn't break free.

He opened his mouth and let out a horrific howl.

"Don't take me back, Innsmouth!"

Randolph Carter imitated the tone of the crew, and everyone present felt their hairs stand on end.

"You don't seem to doubt what I said."

He noticed the attitude of the crowd and was surprised.

His story is usually taken as a story, except at the University of Missouri.

"Since I am looking for you for consultation, I must give you sufficient trust."

Lu Mingfei replied.

"Thank you for your trust, Lu Mingfei, the battle regiment leader."

Randolph Carter's favorability for him has increased a bit.

He also often receives some related inquiries, but those people are always skeptical of his words.

Either suspect him of exaggerating the severity of the matter in order to charge a higher consulting fee.

Either suspect that the solution he provided cannot solve the problem, and then cite a bunch of hearsay examples.

"When the crew member died, I broke his hand, and inside was a note with a sentence written on it, burn my body."

Randolph Carter continued.

And he did, in accordance with the will of the crew, burn his body with firewood and petrol.

And amidst the blazing fire, Randolph Carter noticed.

A scale-like epidermis grew on the crew's body.

"Scales, is this the case?"

Lu Mingfei asked Xihe to call up a partial photo of the dragon scale.

"No, not this kind. You have reptile scales, and he has fish scales."

Randolph Carter shook his head.

The scales of fish are formed by the dermis and are not replaced throughout life.

The scales of reptiles are formed by the accumulation of keratin in the epidermis, which will shed their skin as they grow.

It is not difficult to distinguish, there will be growth rings like trees on the fish scales.

"Where did you get this picture? I've never seen scales like it."

Randolph Carter became curious about dragon scales.

"This is a newly bred lizard species that has not been made public yet."

Lu Mingfei said with a red face.

Strictly speaking, he is not lying.

The usual form of the dragon family is originally a large lizard with wings.

"Ok."

Randolph Carter said with some disappointment.

"Fingal, sing a song to cheer you up."

Lu Mingfei had a sudden whim.

"Huh? Oh."

Fingel was taken aback for a moment, what kind of trouble is the leader doing.

Then, he immediately thought of Lu Mingfei's intention.

Word Ling Emperor was read out again, and Lu Mingfei cast an expectant gaze on Randolph Carter.
