Lu Mingfei Development Program

Chapter 544 Target Florence

The Queen of Ocean and Water discovered the truth of the destruction and hid the spirit left by the God. However, she was not as generous as Lu Mingfei imagined. At least when facing Odin, she did not mind using the remaining spirit as bait to let Odin step into the trap specially prepared for him.

This trap was so obvious that anyone would hesitate before the power that was within reach. But Odin was different. He was too eager to be the only one, and this bait was exactly what he needed most.

Even if his reason finally overwhelmed his desire and he did not step into the trap, he could only look at the thing he desired but could not use it. This kind of torture must be what the King of Ocean and Water would like to see most.

But perhaps even she, who set the trap, did not expect that Odin would step into her trap in this way.

The dragon bone was still smiling, but it was not Odin who was in control. It was as if the king who once controlled the ocean had briefly awakened. Odin's spirit was wailing in her dragon bone, which had become a prison, and it collapsed along with the dragon bone.

Lu Mingfei watched all this happen in silence. Although this scene was full of coincidences, the Dragon King, who was betrayed and died by his brothers, has now avenged himself with his own hands.

As if completing the mission it had maintained for thousands of years, the dragon skeleton turned into foam and disappeared, just like the mermaid returning to the sky in the fairy tale.

Without the support of the creator, this world where the Nibelungen and the fragments of the Kingdom of God were combined began to collapse. Lu Mingfei withdrew his gaze and exchanged a glance with the other silent Dragon King behind him.

"It seems that you have no way to bring her dragon bones back." He said softly.

Ruo Dun was silent for a moment, then smiled helplessly: "At least, she was happy when she left."

As the eldest sister of the kings, what Ruo Dun least wanted to see was probably brothers and sisters killing each other.

You can't think about dragons with human thinking. Even before the ancient war began, the kings were hostile to each other and launched wars against each other's territories. However, no king died because of this.

It is hard to say whether they considered other dragon kings as brothers and sisters at that time, except for their twin relatives on the throne. However, they must have been accustomed to this special way of getting along.

Although it is difficult to understand, this is probably the "family affection" unique to the kings.

Even before entering this world, Ruo Dun already knew that her sister had met with an accident, but when she actually saw her turn into foam and disappear before her eyes, she still felt a sudden sense of relief in her heart.

But she had no place to vent her anger because the person who caused this situation, her other brother, had just died.

"How is your health now?" Lu Mingfei asked.

Ruo Dun sighed softly: "I'm fine. The remaining consciousness in the Water Angel's core has disappeared just now."

The consciousness of the water angel disappeared when the spirit left by God was erased. The archangel who told Lu Mingfei the truth about the world seemed to want to continue to follow his creator in this way.

"So what's your problem?" Lu Mingfei continued to ask.

Because water and fire do not mix, Ruoton's consciousness is dormant most of the time, and she can only appear in the form of Rona on weekdays. Constance ventured here to solve this problem.

Ruoton shook his head: "Although the disappearance of the Water Angel's consciousness has allowed me to take a higher level of control over the core, this problem does not seem to have improved much."

"Just because there is nothing now doesn't mean there won't be anything in the future." Lu Mingfei said softly, smiling at her, "Go back first, there will always be a way."

"...Okay." Ruoton said softly, took a last look at the collapsing Nibelungen, and left without looking back.

……

The crisis of Yunmeng Lake was resolved. Lu Mingfei, who floated up, told the witch leader Xingjian what happened below. After learning that the fragments of the kingdom of God disappeared along with the spirit of God, Xingjian was silent for a long time.

Guixu also disappeared along with Nibelungen, and the floating island returned to the surface of the water again. Then some people were surprised to find that the water level of the swamp seemed to have dropped a little.

The extraordinary power that shrouded this body of water has disappeared, and this swamp, which had remained full for thousands of years, should return to its original state - dry or cracked, like another world.

However, the disappearance of Daze did not happen overnight. A hundred years or so is enough time for a lot of things to happen.

In the early morning, the sun shines on the beach by the water. Lu Mingfei lies on a bamboo chair, holding a fishing rod also made of bamboo and fishing quietly.

A few days ago, someone in Baling City climbed up to a height and was surprised to find that the fog that had covered the center of the lake for thousands of years had disappeared. The misty Yunmeng Lake is already very beautiful, but no matter who it is, they all want to remove the veil of mist on it and appreciate the beautiful scenery underneath.

Now, Yunmeng Lake has revealed its original appearance, and the island where the witches live in the lake is clearly visible. But after this surprise, some people also keenly noticed what seemed to have happened.

But soon, their attention was diverted to another thing: the soldiers from the Xia Kingdom who were on the expedition to the Jinlunga Pass returned.

Chu Shunhua did not deliberately hide the existence of the ghost warriors. This new armored force that severely damaged the Blazing Sky Iron Cavalry should be known to the whole world. When the ghost warriors returned to the court, the suburbs of Luoyi were crowded with people. Everyone wanted to see what the Great Xia army, which once again frightened the Westerners, looked like.

It is said that when the ghost warrior walking under the steam cloud stepped onto the main road of the imperial city, everyone was horrified by his hideous appearance. Emperor Xia, who was waiting for his brother to return to the court at the main gate of the imperial city, was so frightened that he fell off his chair.

A series of disturbances caused chaos in the court, and no one noticed that Chu Shunhua, who was supposed to return to the court to meet the emperor, was not among the soldiers who returned.

Chu Shunhua came behind Lu Mingfei, looked at the empty fish basket, chuckled and said, "Young Master, you are in a really good mood."

The matter of Yunmengze was over, and he should have returned to Luoyi. But when Xingjian invited Lu Mingfei and the others to stay on the island for a few days, he also stayed, as if he wanted to find out how much Xingjian and the witches were hiding from him.

Lu Mingfei glanced at him and continued to shield his eyes from the sun with his straw hat. "Why are you here with me instead of going to the witches to find out the truth about the ruins?"

Chu Shunhua stayed on the island for only one purpose, to find out how many relics the witch was still guarding. But Xing Jian obviously wouldn't tell him so easily.

"If it's not necessary, I don't want to disturb you, but there's someone I'd like you to meet." Chu Shunhua said with a smile.

Lu Mingfei turned his head to glance at him, then looked past him at the white-haired figure guarding an iron coffin in the distance: "Rundstedt?"

He raised his eyebrows. He was not surprised to see the former leader of the Blazing Knights, who was Chu Shunhua's ally. What surprised him was the person next to him... Yingluo, or the last princess of Ceylon, Sugaro.

She also came to the East after the incident in Marston. At the moment, she was accompanied by Lucrecia, talking about something interesting. "It seems that I don't need to introduce you to someone," Chu Shunhua explained the other party's purpose. "He is looking for a doctor who can treat his fiancée. Zhenguo passed by and heard it by chance. He said that he could come to see you, young master."

He paused here, and said with a subtle look: "Zhenguo also said that you like to stand up for the weak, young master, maybe you would be willing to take a look."

“Standing up for justice? Me?” Lu Mingfei was a little confused. How did he leave such an impression on that sister?

Chu Shunhua continued, "Of course I won't bother you in vain. I can afford the consultation fee now."

Lu Mingfei glanced at him and put down the fishing rod he had been holding for a while: "Let him come over. Someone has already paid for his consultation."

"Oh?" Chu Shunhua was a little surprised, but did not ask any further questions. Instead, she turned around and gestured.

After receiving the signal, Rundstedt pushed Tieguan forward, and then he was a little frightened. This doctor, whom Chu Shunhua asked him to treat with caution, looked so familiar. For a moment, he seemed to see the friend who should be in Florence at this moment.

Rundstedt was a little reserved and said in his still not very fluent Chinese: "Excuse me, sir."

Lu Mingfei glanced at the little-faced girl lying in the iron coffin. Her breathing was steady, as if she was sleeping.

To be honest, betraying one's country for a girl is a heinous act, whether in the East or the West, but it is different in the Papal States.

When everyone mentions Florence, they think of it as the capital of fashion, the capital of charm, the center of the Western world, and even the world. The boys there must be the most handsome, the girls must be the most beautiful, and all the beauty in the world can be found in Florence.

However, César was extremely reluctant to mention his experience in Florence. It seemed that it was an experience so dark that he would not want to talk about it until his death. The white-haired boy in front of him might have had the same experience as him, so that he hoped that the Papal State could be destroyed...

Lu Mingfei looked at the girl who seemed to be just sleeping, his eyes showing bright golden color: "Wake up, and live on."

The girl opened her eyes and said softly, "Yes," ignoring Rundstedt's look which had changed from surprise to excitement.

This was the treatment process. Lu Mingfei ignored Rundstedt who was crying while holding the girl, and ignored Chu Shunhua who was secretly wondering what the principle was. He put away his fishing rod and came to where the girls were.

"I sense a very familiar aura from you." Lucrecia looked at the calm Princess Ceylon in front of her with some doubt.

Sugaro smiled at her and said, "Nice to meet you, Princess Gattuso. I have heard your story. Thank you for saving my people."

When Lucrecia left the desert, some of the Ceylon survivors followed her. She planned to hand these people over to Chu Shunhua for training, so that they would have some basic means of making a living.

But today, when these people accidentally saw Sugara landing on the island, their eyes looked more like they had seen someone extraordinary than a ghost. After asking, they found out that this was actually the Princess of Ceylon who was thought to have died four years ago.

Su Jialuo did not hide his identity when he came this time.

"Princess?" Lucrecia was a little surprised by the title.

If she was ten years old, she would definitely be satisfied with this title, but now, she wants to be a queen more than a princess.

However, after entering the world behind this door, someone inexplicably got the title of princess, which made her unable to understand. So she was quite sensitive to similar titles recently.

She asked curiously, "Why do you call me that?"

"Because I have heard of the surname Gattuso." Sugalo said softly, "The Messianic sect has a long history, not just a hundred years as later generations have said. When it was still very ancient, the surname Gattuso represented the most devout believers."

She smiled at Lucrecia and said, "It is said that among the priests who went to sea in despair a hundred years ago, there was a person with this surname. If this family had developed to the present day, perhaps there would have been several popes."

"Pious, Pope..." Lucrecia chewed on the word, which seemed to have nothing to do with the Gattuso family she knew. She couldn't help laughing, "Are you joking to make me happy? You said they are actually pious?"

Su Jialuo still smiled slightly: "I may understand you better than you think, because to some extent, we are sisters."

Lucrecia stopped laughing and said, "What do you mean?"

"I was created." Sugaro said softly, "and the one who created me called you his daughter."

"Odin?" Lucrecia frowned.

This was really unlucky, this guy was dead and still disgusted her. Lu Mingfei had already explained Odin's death to them, and besides feeling very happy, she only regretted not following up and finishing him off with one or two more stabs.

"Okay, this conversation is over." Lu Mingfei interrupted their conversation, "We should go."

"Is it time to leave?" Lucrecia was a little surprised. "Where should we go next?"

"Florence." Lu Mingfei said, "It's time to get back what I left behind."

Then, he turned his head to look at Su Jialuo on the side: "What about you? What are your plans?"

Su Jialuo looked at him in surprise. Strictly speaking, this was their first meeting. But she saw much more than Rundstedt and knew what kind of person was in front of her.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, great man," she said respectfully. "I want to find my people and rebuild the Kingdom of Ceylon."

"Rebuilding the kingdom is not an easy task." Lu Mingfei said, and suddenly remembered something, "Oh, in Marston, there is a Ceylon girl who has fought in armor combat and has received some armor training. It should be useful to you."

With the appearance of the Onimusha, it is only a matter of time before mobile armor is deployed in the East. Chu Shunhua would not mind arming his allies.

"Marston? I remember that." Su Jialuo didn't expect to go back to that city again. She looked up to thank him, but found that there was no one in front of her.
