Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei Returns from Japan

Chapter 547 Fall
The development of the situation has become somewhat outrageous.

It's not like Lu Mingfei had never imagined the scene of Norma and Kaguya, the two great humanoid artificial intelligences, facing off. When Norma launched an offensive against Kaguya from the North American headquarters, Lu Mingfei had imagined the scene of the two... or rather, the two robot girls fighting against each other.

In his imagination, this should be an attack and defense between data streams. You attack my firewall with a huge data stream, and I use advanced encryption programs to set up encryption locks. Binary symbols are like thousands of troops fighting in the virtual world...

This is how the climactic showdown between Norma and Kaguya should have been.

I just didn't expect that one day I would see Norma cosplaying as Hatsune Miku kneeling down and pressing Kaguya on her legs, spanking her butt with a green onion. Kaguya was crying like a child, with pearls falling from her eyes.

It turns out that the battles between mecha girls... are so simple and plain.

Of course, Lu Mingfei immediately realized that this shouldn't be the real Norma spanking Kaguya like a child. The animation in front of him should just be a mimicry animation played when Norma was invading Kaguya's database.

To put it in an analogy, it is a bit like when the "Rising Antivirus Software" is running antivirus, the Rising little lion will look for something with a magnifying glass in the lower right corner of the computer like a detective.

The animated screen playing in front of me probably means that the program in the USB flash drive has been successfully implanted into Kaguya's host. In a short period of time, Kaguya's monitoring system should be paralyzed to a large extent.

But why is the virus program in the USB flash drive Norma... More question marks popped up in Lu Mingfei's mind.

Never mind, the important thing is to do the real work first.

Lu Mingfei first took out his pager from his leather jacket pocket and sent a password of "OK" to Yuan Zhinu. A few seconds later, Yuan Zhinu replied with "OK".

This was what they had agreed on before. After Lu Mingfei succeeded, he would send a secret signal to Minamoto Chikōnō. After receiving the message, Minamoto Chikōnō would inform Aki and Zero that they could dive into the Japan Trench.

Things went much more smoothly than Lu Mingfei had imagined. The hackers of the Hunter Team successfully cracked Kaguya's fire control system before the elite troops of Genji Heavy Industries arrived, and successfully led Lu Mingfei into the main engine room.

And for some unknown reason, Gen Chisei did not chase into Kaguya's computer room as expected.

But there must be something wrong when things are abnormal. Although they successfully implanted the Norma virus into Kaguya's host, the mission has only been completed halfway so far.

Next, they had to quickly escape from the Genji Heavy Industries headquarters building. If they retreated a little late, they might be intercepted by the elite forces of the Eight Snake Families who came to reinforce them.

Fortunately, Lu Mingfei saw on the distribution map of Kaguya's computer room that there was actually an elevator inside the computer room. Kaguya's computer room was connected to the "Shinto" inside the Genji Heavy Industries headquarters building. They could take the internal elevator directly to a lower floor without going out, which avoided another conflict with Genji.

"It has been twenty minutes since the explosion. The first batch of reinforcements should be arriving soon." Jude Mai glanced at the time on her watch.

"The internal elevator should be in this direction."

Lu Mingfei unfolded the distribution map in his hand, turned his hand and pointed to a certain road: "Let's change our clothes while walking."

As they walked, they took off their leather jackets, and underneath them were Genji Heavy Industries employee uniforms. Genji Chitose had gotten these uniforms from some special channels, and she also got them magnetic cards that allowed them to take the internal elevators.

Genji Heavy Industries has tens of thousands of employees. After changing into employee uniforms, they only need to take off their masks and blend in with the others. Genji Chisei will not be able to recognize them. It is impossible for him to remember the appearance of every employee.

Lu Mingfei swiped the magnetic card on the elevator access control. Amid the roar of the elevator rising, Lu Mingfei, Jiude Mai and Xia Mi took off their masks together.

They have just tried it, and now the entire Kaguya-sama system has been paralyzed, and all the surveillance cameras inside the building have failed. They no longer need to worry about their faces being captured by surveillance cameras after taking off their masks.

Probably because it was a bit stuffy in the computer room, the three of them were sweating on their faces. Jiude Mai's face was even a little red from the heat. The sweat stuck her long hair to her forehead, and Xia Mi's beautiful, neatly trimmed bangs were also messed up by the wetness.

Then the three of them turned their heads at the same time and looked at "Jesse" standing aside.

"..."

"..."

"...You're not going to pick it?"

"Jesse" subconsciously touched the mask on his face: "...I will go down to a random floor later and take it off after getting off the elevator."

Strange behavior. But Lu Mingfei could understand it. He, Jiude Mai and Xia Mi knew each other and knew each other well, so they were not afraid of exposing their true faces.

"Jesse" and they just met by chance, just a temporary teammate in a hunter mission. Hunters must attach great importance to their identity privacy, so it is normal that she is unwilling to take off her mask in front of them.

Mai Jude was even more certain of her previous guess, thinking that "Jesse" was most likely an employee of Genji Heavy Industries. She was unwilling to take off her mask because she was afraid that her true identity would be known to her. This also explained why she was able to get the layout drawings of the computer room.

With a "ding" sound, the internal elevator arrived at the machine room. The elevator door opened and several people entered the elevator. Fortunately, the entire Genji Heavy Industries was probably still in chaos after the raid, so there was no one else in the elevator.

Jesse pressed the button for the 35th floor. Jude Maizawa reached out and pressed the button for the 30th floor, where the employees of Genji Heavy Industries had their large office. They could blend in well and then leave the Genji Heavy Industries Building from other exits.

Lu Mingfei looked up at the elevator and remembered that the last time he took this elevator was with Caesar and Chu Zihang. At that time, they found Genji Heavy Industries from the sewers of Takamagahara, and met Sakurai Nanami, the then head of the Sakurai family, in the internal elevator. Caesar was slapped by the young woman...

The elevator shook with a "bang". Lu Mingfei looked away, thinking that the elevator had arrived, but the strange thing was why the elevator door didn't open for a long time.

But then he realized something was wrong. The elevator did not stop shaking and the floor buttons flashed as if they were short-circuited. A creaking sound kept coming from just above the elevator shaft, like something hard breaking inch by inch.

Jiude Mai suddenly propped herself up with her knife and half-knelt on the ground. Jesse, who was standing beside her, also made a similar move of supporting herself with her hands. Only Xia Mi and Lu Mingfei did not feel anything unusual.

“It’s the kingship.”

Jude Mai gritted her teeth and spoke as if trying to squeeze out a sound from the depths of her throat: "Gen Chisei has been following us...!"

Lu Mingfei suddenly figured out what that “creaking” sound was…it was the sound of the steel cables holding the elevator breaking one by one!

Yuan Zhisheng had expected from the beginning that they could only escape the building by taking the internal elevator in Kaguya's computer room, so he had been waiting on the floor above Lu Mingfei and the others. The reason he did not follow them into the computer room was probably because he was worried that the battle would affect Kaguya's computer room.

When they just entered the elevator, Lu Mingfei heard the elevator shaking with a "bang", which was the sound made by Yuan Zhisheng jumping right above the elevator.

He knew that Wang Quan's domain was ineffective against Lu Mingfei and others, but the high gravity field formed in the domain was effective against other things. Lu Mingfei's "Haiyuan" could ignore the gravity field formed by "Wang Quan"... but this elevator couldn't!
He planned to use his royal power to make the entire elevator fall, using the natural acceleration that exceeded the gravity to accelerate Lu Mingfei and the others to fall from a height of more than 30 floors, and fall to death! He didn't even plan to leave them alive!

Before Lu Mingfei could put his hands on Jiude Mai and "Jesse", the sound of metal fatigue and fracture suddenly rang out.

Jude Mai felt the gravity field that had been pressing on her disappear, and she suddenly felt weightless. The entire elevator completely lost control and fell, the brake pads rubbed against the track, the metal screamed, and sparks illuminated the elevator shaft. With all his strength drained away, Gen Chisei couldn't help but fall backwards, but Sakura behind him grabbed his arms in time and caught him from behind.

Ying pulled the kite off her back, and when she opened her eyes again, a golden glow was already spreading in her eyes. The wind driven by the "Yin Liu" drove the kite and carried them slowly upwards.

She lowered her eyes and watched the elevator below slide rapidly towards the bottom. Under the acceleration of gravity, it only took a few seconds for the elevator to fall from the 39th floor to the bottom. Even if a half-blood had a high bloodline, falling from this height would definitely kill him.

The next moment, her eyelids suddenly blinked.

A gust of wind suddenly blew towards her from the depths of the elevator shaft.

This is not surprising. Wind often surges upward in the elevator shaft, because the elevator shaft is usually a long and narrow vertical passage that runs from top to bottom. When the elevator moves at high speed, the surrounding air will form airflow. These airflows will generate wind after flowing back and forth in the shaft.

But the wind generated at this time was really too strong... No, this was not normal elevator airflow at all.

The wind was flowing very fast in the elevator shaft, as if a small tornado had suddenly swirled in the shaft. The sharp sound of the wind was whistling wildly in the elevator shaft. The surging wind even interfered with the wind path of her "Word Spirit·Yin Liu", pulling the kite behind her up rapidly.

"A high-risk wind-type word spirit?"

Sakura couldn't help but close her eyes because of the strong wind, and this thought popped into her mind.

……

Xia Mi sat up, rubbed her messy hair, and looked around blankly.

In the few seconds when the elevator was falling, she decisively used the "Eye of the Wind King" to wrap up everyone in the elevator.

As she had judged, the whirlwind formed by the "Eye of the Wind King" did help them absorb most of the impact of the collision and fall. But the downside was that the "Eye of the Wind King" could not be controlled, and the falling point of the rotation was quite random. Now she didn't know where they fell.

I have to find my brother first...

After this thought came to Xia Mi's mind, she tried to move her limbs. To her surprise, she didn't seem to suffer much impact when she fell.

"It doesn't hurt." Xia Mi said in surprise.

Then a voice answered her: "...Nonsense, of course you are not in pain."

Xia Mi was stunned for a moment. The sound came from right below her. She lowered her head and saw Lu Mingfei lying face down on the ground... and she was kneeling on Lu Mingfei's back. She was wondering why the floor was not scratchy at all. It turned out that Lu Mingfei was cushioning her body.

Xia Mi immediately jumped off Lu Mingfei, stuck out her tongue and helped Lu Mingfei up awkwardly: "I'm sorry, Senior Brother... Does it hurt?"

"What do you think?" Lu Mingfei grinned.

Ouch, my elbow… Ouch, my calves… Ouch, my discs…

"I'm sorry, Senior Brother." Xia Mi put her hands together in front of her, with an apologetic look on her face: "I will definitely give you a good massage when I get back."

Thinking of Xia Mi's massage, Lu Mingfei thought to himself, "Junior sister, you'd better stop massaging me. Every time you massage me, you don't know where you are massaging... Although your technique is very comfortable, I can't stand your torment now."

Lu Mingfei stood up with the help of Xia Mi, looked around and found that they were now in a not very deep corridor.

I don't know if it's because the power system hasn't been repaired yet, but there are no lights in the corridor, and everything is dim. There is a silver-white door in front, and the electronic cold light on the door control can show a little bit of the situation inside the corridor. There is still a smell of disinfectant in the air. Everything is a little strange but also a little familiar.

Jiude Mai was just a few meters away from him, kneeling on the ground rubbing her head, and she seemed to have just woken up from the aftermath of the fall. The moment she subconsciously looked around, she met Lu Mingfei's eyes.

"..."

"..."

Jiude Mai immediately looked away.

Lu Mingfei scratched his head and thought, do you really not want to see me that much?
He also wanted to see where Miss "Jesse" was, but found that there was no trace of her around. He wondered if she had been taken to another place by Xia Mi's "Eye of the Wind King".

"Where are we now?"

Jiude Mai frowned and pressed her temple, "Didn't Yuan Zhisheng catch up with us?"

"At least they haven't caught up with us yet." Lu Mingfei replied, "As for where we are..."

Lu Mingfei was about to answer that he didn't know either, but the moment he looked up, he saw a ξ symbol right above his silver-white door.

"..."

Lu Mingfei suddenly paused, a gust of wind suddenly blew into a corner deep in his brain, and a long-forgotten memory was lifted up, and he remembered when he had been here. Fear, panic, and throbbing emotions surged out of his body.

Yes...that's right...

Lu Mingfei repeatedly confirmed the details in his memory, and his chest suddenly started beating wildly.

But before he could get close to the safety door, he was suddenly stunned because he heard a light "click" from the safety bolt.

Then, with a whoosh sound, the safety door in front of him suddenly released the high-pressure nitrogen in the valve. The 20-centimeter-thick carbide door slowly opened, and the refreshing scent of sandalwood came to his face.

The girl stood behind the door, holding a small box in her hand. Her shrine maiden uniform was smooth and wrinkle-free, and she dressed herself neatly like a middle school student preparing to go out for an outing.

Her hair is dark red.

There is only one kind of hair color in the world that Lu Mingfei will never forget.
