Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei Returns from the Black Myth

Chapter 51: Awakening Water Avoidance Technique
Lu Mingfei walked slowly forward in a phantom state, and arrived at the Dragon King's bedroom. Because he couldn't use a flashlight in the phantom state, he chanted a spell softly, and a golden light lit up at his fingertips, illuminating the place.

To Lu Mingfei's surprise, this place was not a grand palace like the one at Lingshan Mountain, but just a small house, an ancient bronze dwelling that was almost indistinguishable from the ancient Chinese dwellings in history books.

There were even windows, but outside them was a dark metal wall.

Lu Mingfei touched the bronze wall and walked slowly in. This place was under the water and well sealed. After thousands of years, there was no dust at all.

The furnishings in the room were extremely simple. Two of the three rooms were bedrooms. The beds were made of rattan and were still sturdy. However, the scroll hanging on the wall was not so lucky. When Lu Mingfei swept his fingers over it, the silk pieces shattered and a bare wooden scroll fell to the ground and rolled away.

There was a ceramic vase on the low table, with a withered flower in it. The black stem looked like it was made of wire. Two robes were hung on the wall, both white. At first glance, it looked like two people, one tall and one short, standing against the wall.

In the main room, a stack of yellowed rough paper was placed on the low table. The handwriting on it was clearly discernible, in the dignified Han Li style. Lu Mingfei glanced at it and saw an incomplete sentence, "In the twelfth year of Longxing, divination, unknown..."

"Is this the Dragon King's bedroom? It's rather plain."

After arriving inside the palace, Lu Mingfei discovered that the perception of a dangerous presence he had when he first stepped through the door suddenly disappeared. In other words, if the Dragon King had awakened, he was no longer here?

Or was it that his feeling was wrong, and the Dragon King had not awakened at all, and his eggs were just well preserved somewhere in this house?

After searching around, Lu Mingfei sat down in front of the coffee table. He casually glanced at the edge of the table and unexpectedly found a bulge slightly protruding from the table.

That's a button. Do you want to press it?
Lu Mingfei pressed it without any hesitation. Anyway, he was still in the state of gathering and dispersing energy, so it didn't matter even if this was a dangerous mechanism.

After pressing the button, Lu Mingfei clearly felt some structure inside the coffee table meshing together, making a slight vibrating sound.

At the same time, there was a creaking sound from the wall behind Lu Mingfei. The wall opened, and a bronze puppet moved along the slide rails and knelt down beside the table. In his hand was a tray of grapes that were so dry that they were almost unrecognizable.

"Does the dragon race still like this kind of high technology?" Lu Mingfei said to himself. He stood up and looked at the bronze wall behind him.

There was a hollowed-out area on the wall, which should be the area where the bronze doll was on standby inside the wall.

However, Lu Mingfei noticed that this empty space seemed to be able to accommodate more than just a bronze doll. Moreover, this place gave him the feeling of a coffin, and the bronze doll was a burial offering.

Lu Mingfei soon realized that something was wrong. He could sense that this place had been tampered with recently.

Is it the existence that he sensed and has disappeared in the Dragon King’s bedroom?
Suddenly, Lu Mingfei's eyes suddenly moved to a direction outside the Dragon King's palace. In the distance, the signal line connecting him to the "Moniah" was cut off!

That being was very cunning. After noticing Lu Mingfei entering, he concealed his breath, quietly took something away and left here, then went far away to cut off his connection with the water!
After entering the state of gathering and dispersing energy, Lu Mingfei informed the "Moniah" in advance that if he wanted to conceal his breath and sneak into the Dragon King's bedroom, he would no longer be able to contact the water.

I don’t know whether the "Moniah" can notice the abnormality underwater after the signal line is cut off at this moment.

But this is not important. What is important is that after the signal line was cut off, Lu Mingfei had already locked the location of the cunning being.

"That's interesting. After exposing your position, can you still escape?" Since the person hiding in the dark took the initiative to cut off the signal line, he can no longer hide from Lu Mingfei's pair of sharp eyes.

He heard a distant heartbeat like a drum, and another indescribable, anxious, and manic roar. The roar seemed to come from the depths of hell, symbolizing that the dead were about to return to this world.

Two beings? Are they both Dragon Kings?

No matter what, from this moment on, Lu Mingfei's hunting time will begin. He cancelled the state of gathering and dispersing energy, and ran towards the place where the sound came from in the distance. His figure disappeared in the Dragon King's bedroom in an instant.

On the Moniah, the atmosphere in the cabin was dead silent and anxious.

Everyone is waiting for the reply from the S-rank who has sneaked into the Dragon King's bedroom. Can he return safely with the Dragon King's egg? Or...
Suddenly, the display screen in the cabin showing Lu Ming's vital signs went out.

Seeing this scene, several quick gasps were heard in the cabin. Ye Sheng and Jiude Aki widened their eyes in disbelief, and their bodies began to tremble slightly.

"Junior, is he dead?" Shude Aki's voice was weak and trembling.

Professor Mans held his breath for several moments before shaking his head with some difficulty and denying it:

"Not necessarily. Perhaps Lu Mingfei's communication line was cut off. But in any case, the current situation is not optimistic."

At the moment Mance finished his words, the entire cabin was illuminated by a blood-like red light, and a shrill alarm like a death bell began to sound, like a roaring and running ghost.

"Alert! Alert! An abnormal heat source has been found underwater in the Yangtze River! Alert! Alert! An abnormal heat source has been found underwater in the Yangtze River!" Norma's voice began to repeat along with the alarm.

After hearing Norma's alarm, everyone in the cabin was stunned for the first time. Heat source? What is that?
Professor Mans was the first to realize what was happening underwater. Even under the red light of the alarm, the face of this experienced member of the executive department turned pale.

"The source of heat is the Dragon King. The King of Bronze and Fire, who has awakened!" Mance's trembling murmur to himself quickly turned into a loud roar.

After Lu Mingfei heard the heartbeat and the roar, the mechanical structure of the Bronze City started again.

The city seemed to have countless gaps opened up, and millions of tons of Yangtze River water poured into the empty Bronze City. The water with violent impact force roared and rushed in the countless corridors of the Bronze City.

In this situation, Lu Mingfei obviously could no longer rely on the diving suit with extremely weak protection to travel through the corridors and look for the Dragon King.

The impact of the water flow was enough to blow him away, not to mention that the water flow also carried large and small bronze fragments. If an ordinary person was hit by these fragments, getting his skin torn would be a minor matter.

Then, Lu Mingfei swung the golden cudgel and performed the water-avoiding technique, and the water rushing towards him could not get within half a meter around his body.

Inside the corridor, Lu Mingfei opened up a water path and went straight into the depths of the waves, running lightly towards the place where the two suspected Dragon Kings were.
