Lu Mingfei Development Program

Chapter 552: The Last Day of Florence

Lu Mingfei looked at Xizel's reaction with interest. Even through the red dragon's mask, he could see the surprise and astonishment on the other's face.

The red dragon's mask opened, revealing Xizel's pretty face that looked like a girl.

The same black hair, the same oriental face. The only difference was their eyes, one was a noble golden color that could not be looked at directly, the other was a strange purple color that was considered ominous.

Anyone who sees these two people will definitely think that they are brothers. But in fact, César has two half-brothers, but just like every legitimate child hates illegitimate children, César is naturally not welcomed by them.

César didn't mind. To him, Adele was his only sibling.

...But now, he had to admit that what the devil said about them being brothers was not just a casual remark.

“If you want to be surprised, there will be plenty of time to surprise you later.” Lu Mingfei looked up at the sky and reached out to catch the falling Spear of Eternity.

Even though the Wind Angel was seriously injured, Lu Mingfei would not underestimate it, not to mention that it had learned Odin's cunning from his interactions with him. Just as Odin would not easily reveal his true form, Lu Mingfei also felt that the Wind Angel would not easily expose itself.

Even the wind angel that led Constance away might have been a fake.

However, no matter how many ways the Wind Angel has to escape and lead them there, his ultimate goal is undoubtedly Florence. Here are Cesare, Adele, and the only people he needs.

However, the situation seemed a little beyond Lu Mingfei's expectations.

The silver sword light split the dark clouds in the sky, and the rainstorm really stopped this time. The huge being in the sky turned its back to the moonlight, and spread its huge wings behind it, almost covering the sky.

The being that wanted to become the Lord of the Sky was bathed in the moonlight, and its appearance was no different from what César had seen just now. Constance did catch up with it at some point and caused it a lot of damage.

However, it survived Lu Mingfei's previous blow that cut it in half.

Not only that, the armor on his body was intact, which surprised Lu Mingfei even more. He deliberately did not use his full strength, but the other party should not be so unscathed.

What Lu Mingfei saw and heard in Yunmeng Lake made him know the truth of the world, and made him have some concerns about using the forbidden word "Twilight of the Gods" among the forbidden words - if he used this word with all his strength, it might bring about a disaster as equal to "destruction".

Odin had mentioned the existence of "Dusk" several times, and showed unprecedented fear. If it was said that this had nothing to do with the forbidden words held by Lu Mingfei, even the simple-minded Fenrir would not believe it.

Lu Mingfei suddenly frowned. There was something obscure and incomprehensible about the Wind Angel. He couldn't tell what it was, but it made him very unhappy.

"Be careful, this guy seems to be a little weird." Lu Mingfei said to Xizel, handing the Spear of Destiny to him again, while he continued to hold the sharp sword of Ame no Murakumo.

The weapons created by humans based on the weapons used by Omega cannot harm the Wind Angel, a being that occupies the sky.

The golden eye cast towards the earth again. Lu Mingfei could clearly see that the former's eyes, which had become furious after he appeared, suddenly calmed down, and even seemed to contain some sarcasm.

As if mocking him, he finally fell into his own trap.

"...Florence." Lu Mingfei said suddenly.

Xizel was stunned for a moment, frowned and asked: "What do you mean?"

Lu Mingfei silently stared at the huge being in the sky, his eyes shining with gold: "This is not its true body... or rather, not its complete true body. A part of it has gone to Florence."

Xizel quickly understood what Lu Mingfei meant, and the purple in his eyes suddenly froze: "Adele... Adele is still in Florence!"

He now urgently wants to return to Florence. Didn't he choose to come here to ambush the Wind Angel just to keep the battlefield away from Adele?

"Relax." Lu Mingfei stretched out his hand and held down the violent red dragon.

The huge power stunned Xizel. His own strength was very weak. According to the devil, a girl who exercises regularly can crush him physically. But it was different after wearing the armor. He was the red dragon, the dancing red dragon that had caused a rebellion in Florence.

But now, he could only obey obediently in front of the devil who was not wearing armor and didn't even seem to be using any strength.

Lu Mingfei looked at the wind angel in the sky that seemed to be laughing at him, shook his head slightly, and sighed, "It is said that he learned Odin's cunning, but it is just a poor imitation after all. Odin has used the same trick once before."

……

The rainstorm has stopped, but the water of the Tiber River is still surging, like a silent roar, reminding this city blessed by God that danger has come.

In a church somewhere, believers were trembling and prostrating themselves before the cross emblem as they prayed. The Papal States was a country founded on religion, and the nobles viewed religion as a very useful tool for ruling, and probably did not believe in the existence of God.

However, the majority of people in the city of Florence are civilians. They chose to come to this city because they believe in the Messiah. They truly believe in the existence of God and believe that God will save them when a crisis comes. For example, now.

There were also people who looked down upon these devout believers. Some of them came from aristocratic families and perhaps had some understanding of the fundamental principles of this country.

They thought it would be better to maintain their energy rather than praying laboriously, because the night didn’t seem to end with the rain stopping…but as they prayed, morning light appeared outside the window!
Those who had been indifferent to the praying believers were somewhat surprised. It was as if the Lord in heaven had heard the prayers of these devout believers and wanted the night to end as soon as possible so that dawn could come to the earth again.

Some of them curiously approached the window and looked up, then smiled and joined in the prayer. The prayer was so devout that the people who were praying were a little surprised. They turned their heads to look, and the curiosity on their faces turned into fear.

The closed church was in chaos, with countless people scrambling to escape from the strange believer whose eyes had been burned out but who was still praising the Lord loudly.

Emerald light descended from the sky, like an aurora.

The angels silently descended on this city blessed by God. They were silent, and flames on their empty heads transformed into lions' heads, as if announcing that today was the last day of Florence. The sound of gunfire broke the silence of the streets. The patrolling Seraphim cavalry discovered the existence of these Omegas, and the already panic-stricken church became even more panic-stricken because of the sound of gunfire.

Florence, which had been quiet, was awakened again by the piercing alarm. In the fast-running limousine, Director Spencer put down the receiver and said with a serious look: "Omegas have appeared, many of them, and they have triggered a new round of alarms."

"I understand." The Pope said softly, pulling out his musket and blowing up the sirens that were shrieking continuously.

The limousine suddenly stopped, and Director Spencer, who was almost thrown out of his seat, quickly responded and wanted to ask the driver what happened. However, he was soon stunned, and emerald light overflowed from the front window, illuminating the livid faces of everyone in the window.

Adele followed her brother's instructions and curled up in bed, covering her head with the quilt and covering her ears with a pillow. She didn't listen to anything and didn't do anything. As long as she slept until tomorrow morning, nothing would happen.

Suddenly, she woke up from her dream and saw a ray of light coming in from the gap in the quilt. She lifted the quilt with a sigh of relief, ready to greet the morning of a new day and her brother who promised her that he would return to her with the sun in the morning.

She got up and walked barefoot on the cold floor. Her fair, graceful calves and her young but already stunning body curves were faintly visible under her nightgown.

When she was still in Marston, some people discussed whether Adele was a witch. Because she was still underage, but her beauty made men of all ages surrender. If she wasn't a witch, then what was she?
Pulling open the curtains that were tightly closed as instructed by her brother, the emerald light shone on Adele's long hair, which looked more like gold than chestnut.

Then, she suddenly froze. There was no sun outside the window, and no brother who had promised to come back with the sun. The emerald sacred creature appeared in the courtyard of Cantreb Castle.

The Seraphic Cavalry sent by my father were torn into pieces and thrown aside, while the Pope's Guards were crawling on the ground, kneeling before those sacred creatures, praising the Lord loudly like devout believers.

Almost at the moment when the curtains were drawn, those sacred creatures cast their gazes towards Adele. They clearly had no heads, but Adele could still sense the lion's gaze from the dancing flames.

Adele suddenly remembered that she had seen these things before.

That was when her brother asked her to leave the church quickly in Marston. But the roar of gunfire outside the church still made her curiously take a peek outside the church.

It was then that she saw the sacred creature jump out of the locomotive. At the same time, something she couldn't understand came to her...

"Have you thought about it?" The witch's lazy voice sounded in Adele's heart, "Now you are facing an unprecedented crisis. Your brother can't help you, and my brother can't help you either."

Those sacred creatures did not take the next step, so Adele was not as frightened as she had imagined.

She closed the curtains again, leaned against the window with her back, curled up her small body, and asked curiously, "Miss Witch, you keep mentioning your brother. You must love her very much, right?"

When this question was raised, the witch's laziness instantly disappeared, and she said with almost gnashing teeth: "A guy who wants to find someone else to be his sister! What's there to love?"

"But, didn't you come to me to help your brother?" Adele continued.

Perhaps even Lu Mingfei didn't expect that the little witch would do the same thing twice. After failing to deceive her brother, she set her sights on her sister.

Izanami, who controls spiritual elements, probably would not have thought that when she was lurking in Adele's mind under Lu Mingfei's orders, waiting for Odin to take the bait, a "stowaway" would also hide in the girl's mind.

After a brief moment of unhappiness, the witch continued to show her lazy appearance of holding a lollipop and deceiving the little girl into trading: "How about it? Trade? As long as you nod, it will only take a snap of my fingers to deal with these guys."

Adele shook her head: "But my brother hasn't come back yet. He will definitely protect me."

Adele actually had some doubts about whether César could get back in time. Although the sacred creatures outside the window did not seem to have any ill will towards her, the guards sent by her father were all knocked down by them, so they looked like bad guys.

But Adele believed her brother. He said that as long as she slept until dawn, nothing would happen, so nothing bad would happen.

More importantly, what Miss Witch wanted to trade was a little strange—half of her life.

The little witch was also somewhat helpless. Generally speaking, she could cheat a girl like Adele, who thought she was smart but innocent, out of her life in one night. But unexpectedly, this girl was particularly stubborn.

She always talks about her brother, and takes everything César says as the golden rule. She is a real brother-complexionist. But why didn't you remember that you were not allowed to climb out of the dormitory window when you were at the Royal Mechanical College in Marston?
"You win..." the witch said dimly, "You have waited for reinforcements."

Upon hearing this, Adele opened the curtains again in surprise. The feeling that someone close to her had returned made her feel at ease to stick her head out to take a look.

The Seraph spread its wings in the air, and the slender blade was like a sword of Damocles hovering over the king's head, falling continuously, accurately piercing the body of each sacred creature. These guys who solved the Pope's guards silently were also eliminated silently.

Gathering the flying blades behind him like wings, the Seraph began to descend and landed outside Adele's window. The knight's cabin opened, but the person who walked out was somewhat beyond Adele's expectations.

She was a woman who shone like the sun, with a great figure, especially her extremely plump breasts. Adele was a little surprised. She knew very well that she didn't know this woman, but the intimacy made her want to call her "Sister".

Lucrecia looked at this young girl curiously, but she would definitely be as charming as her in the future. Suddenly she smiled and hugged her in her arms: "Adele, you are really destined to be my sister!"

Omega, emitting emerald light, split into two halves and fell to both sides. The Pope silently looked at the armor that appeared behind Omega, which looked like a red devil.

Not long ago, he had seen similar armor on the battlefield of Marston - the Onimusha. This new type of armor from Xia Country had defeated the proud Blazing Sky Cavalry of the Papal State.

And now, it looks like a prototype of Onimusha, or a special armor appeared in Florence. One strike killed Omega, which required the combined efforts of several Prometheans to destroy.

The Pope's eyes flickered. He discovered the characters of the Xia Kingdom on the long sword of the armor. They were four very familiar characters - Great Xia Dragon Bird.

In fact, Chu Yuyi refused Chu Shunhua's request to write an inscription on her armor, but Chu Shunhua seemed very happy about it. The result of the stalemate between the two was that the four characters "Daxia Dragon Bird" written by "Daxia Dragon Bird" were engraved on the knife.
