From Naruto onwards, I've become a dreamer.

Chapter 278 Japan Prelude
Afterwards, when the executive department went to clean up the mess, all that was left was the completely burned-down corridor.

As for the completely mutated 'George', he was reduced to charcoal by the raging flames of the Word of Power: Monarch Flame, and the vascular mycelium covering the surrounding walls and ceiling was also completely purified.

It must be said that, to some extent, Junyan's 'sterilization' effect is quite remarkable.

Freya and Susie took the 'seriously injured' Adam to the emergency room, while the other executive officers were responsible for evacuating the crowd and promptly erasing memories. After hearing the mission report, Raymond's expression immediately turned serious, and he personally came to the scene.

"Deep dragonification".

Raymond stared at the charcoal on the ground, his expression grave.

Although he was burned to a pile of charcoal by Junyan, he could still vaguely make out the remaining dragon bones in the corpse.

After a moment of silence, he looked at Chu Zihang beside him and said in a deep voice, "What happened here should not be revealed to anyone except those in the know."

Upon hearing this, Chu Zihang glanced at him and nodded thoughtfully: "Okay."

The Brooklyn 'cesarean section case' has officially come to an end.

But it seems to have unearthed something deeper, whether it was the force that prompted George's 'deep dragonification' or that disgusting 'mutation'.

Raymond had a vague feeling that this incident was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

After sealing 'George's' remains with alchemical equipment to ensure they wouldn't be leaked, the executive team gradually withdrew from the hospital.

As for the remaining cleanup, let another group of people deal with that.

A fire broke out at a Brooklyn hospital due to a gas leak, completely destroying the third and fourth floors of the inpatient ward. Fortunately, no one was injured. This incident, orchestrated by the Secret Service, was ultimately reported in the newspapers in this manner.

Upon returning to the academy, Raymond immediately submitted a report on the mission to the Minister of Execution.

Meanwhile, George's remains, which had undergone a severe 'mutation,' were also sent to the Alchemy Principles Department, in the hope that some useful information could be extracted from them.

Freya and Susie were unharmed and quickly returned to their studies. Chu Zihang, however, was subjected to an unknown form of 'hypnosis' by the enemy during the mission and needed further observation. He was temporarily recuperating in the Psychology Department. As for Adam, he was the most seriously injured and was recovering in the school clinic.

In the principal's office, Executive Director von Schneider hurriedly pushed open the door and entered.

"Good morning, Professor Schneider." Angers sat behind his antique mahogany desk, seemingly unsurprised by his arrival. He poured freshly brewed tea into a bone china cup and gently pushed it towards him: "From Wuyi Mountain in China, this is the finest Da Hong Pao, with a unique fragrance. It's an absolutely exquisite drink that you shouldn't miss."

Schneider, with his rigid and serious demeanor, sat directly at his desk, ignoring the tea offered to him, and handed over the prepared task briefing: "Thank you, no thanks, this is the task report."

"Well, hard work."

Angers took the report and began to read it.

The office was quiet. Schneider didn't say a word, except for the occasional rustling sound when he turned the pages of a paper report.

A moment later, Angers finished reading the entire report, placed it back on the table, picked up a bone china teacup, took a sip, and a barely perceptible sharpness flashed in the depths of his silver-gray eyes. He then put the teacup down and asked in a calm tone, "What do you think?"

"Deep dragonification is not that easy."

Schneider immediately saw the biggest problem in the report. His eyes turned fierce as he sneered, "A half-breed who has never been exposed to the truth can raise the purity of dragon blood to that of a Deadpool on his own. If just anyone is this powerful, I don't think there's any need to slay dragons. We might as well all surrender."

If any random hybrid could easily exceed the bloodline limit, wouldn't the streets be full of 'Deadpool's'?

At that point, Kassel might as well give up his dragon-slaying job and just turn against his own side.

"Did you find anything?" Angers knew Schneider's habits; he would never make baseless accusations.

“Although Junyan was highly destructive, some kind of residual gene serum was still detected in his remains.” Schneider’s tone was calm, but a hint of anger appeared in his eyes, indicating that this matter was very serious: “That gene serum is suspected of increasing the proportion of dragon blood.”

Angers tapped his index finger on the table, expressionless, and nodded to signal him to continue.

“I had the executive department conduct a thorough investigation afterward about this person, ‘George,’ and they discovered something interesting,” Schneider continued. “An extremely reclusive person turned out to have a very close connection with another person online.”

"Have you found the source?" Angers asked calmly.

“The IP address was masked multiple times, making it very difficult to find,” Schneider said. “I had ‘EVA’ check the underground dark web. The organization developing gene drugs is very careful, and gene drugs are rarely circulated, but we still found some clues, and many of them point to Japan.”

"Japan."

Angers froze for a moment, then quickly regained his composure, picked up his teacup again, and took a sip: "What do you think?"

“The Japanese branch has been getting increasingly active in recent years,” Schneider said, rubbing his furrowed brow. “Especially the Snake Clan, they seem to be hiding something from us.”

"That's normal. After all, there's never a shortage of mixed-blood societies in this world that dream of joining the dragon race."

Angers put down his teacup, smiled, and said, "Of course, I'm not referring to the Snake Clan, but this is a good opportunity to probe their background."

"Who do you plan to send?" Schneider saw through the old man's thoughts.

"The Lionheart Society and the Student Council have been fighting for so long, it's time for it to come to an end."

Angers smiled slightly and said meaningfully, "Why don't we take advantage of this mission to let them have a good competition?"

"Um, Caesar and Chu Zihang?"

Schneider trusted the two men and agreed, asking, "When do you plan to send them?"

"Let's wait a little longer, there's still one person."

Angers slowly got up, walked to the bedside in the office, and looked outside with a soft smile.

"Who else?"

Schneider couldn't think of anyone else who could go on the mission with these two.

"Adam Angelweid".

Angers' silver-gray eyes narrowed slightly, and a slight smile curved his lips.

"Adam?"

Schneider looked puzzled and asked, "He's just a B-level student. He was almost killed on this mission. Why do you insist on having him go with you?"

"Haha, who knows."

Angers snapped out of his reverie and said meaningfully, "Let's just consider it a small test."
