Dragon Clan: Force me to be reborn and slay dragons

Chapter 244 The Emperor's Plea: Angers, save my daughter!
Tonight, the Snake Clan is hosting a banquet for the technical support team from Kassel College, and Angers, as the highest-ranking leader, should be present.

However, after arriving in Japan, he waited for a whole day without receiving any contact from the three aces he had sent out, and there was no new news from the academy headquarters either.

Recently, the Ghost Clan has been making too many moves, and he was afraid that the three of them might hide and get into trouble, which could lead to the demise of Kassel College's future. So he asked Inuyama He if he knew their whereabouts.

Inuyama He had been thinking about how to tell the principal about this matter, but the old man didn't speak. He hurriedly approached and said that the three young heroes of your school were united with us in fighting against the powerful enemy. As a result, the Snake-Headed Eight Families not only did not remember the kindness, but also repaid kindness with enmity, putting them under house arrest and preparing to cover up the matter. In the end, they even planned to brainwash them or something.

Given Angers's fiery temper, after hearing this, he'd probably sneak into the Genji Heavy Industries building in the middle of the night, dig out Tachibana Masamune's corpse from the freezer, and finely chop it into a sauce.

Moreover, while it is now publicly acknowledged that Tachibana Masamune died from an assassination attempt by the Dragon Kings of the Demon Clan, the true cause of death has not been revealed by the clan heads, otherwise the situation would have descended into complete chaos.

Therefore, Inuyama He could only pick and choose what to say.

Angers knew his student well, so he dismissed the rumors about Caesar and Chu Zihang staying behind to have tea with the patriarch after the battle, and about Fingel secretly filming the secrets of the Snake Clan and escaping. Fingel's subsequent report explained everything clearly.

However, upon hearing that Fingel had escaped but quickly found help and returned to rescue Caesar and Chu Zihang, he became interested.

After all, Fingel's report only stated that he sought help from well-meaning people who did not want to reveal their names, without specifying who they were. When asked, they claimed to be Batman and Superman, the two main figures of the Justice League.

If it were just Fingel saying this, the Executive Department certainly wouldn't believe it, but since Caesar's subsequent report stated the same thing, they had no choice but to believe it.

As for Chu Zihang, the report stated that his Asian identity made it easier for him to integrate into the local art style, and that he would work with the two leaders of the Justice League to see if they could expose the true nature of the Snake Clan.

As the saying goes, when three men get together, they're bound to produce one genius, while the other two will become the "casual guy" and the "action guy."

Fingel may be despicable, but he knows his limits and won't act recklessly.

On the contrary, Caesar has been causing one crazy thing after another since he entered the school, even turning a day of freedom into a live-action CS game.

Moreover, he is a vengeful person. He would definitely want to get revenge for the loss he suffered at the hands of the Snake Clan. Who knows, this idea of ​​violating the Execution Department's action manual might have been his.

As for Chu Zihang, he was a typical action-oriented person. Although he and Caesar were somewhat incompatible, the other party was, after all, the captain, and at seventeen or eighteen years old, he was at the age of fiery temper. He probably also harbored resentment towards the Snake Clan, so he reluctantly agreed.

They were all problem children, and all very opinionated. Angers couldn't figure out what they were up to.

However, there must be a reason why Chu Zihang could follow those two Justice League members in black and red underwear so confidently.

So Angers asked the Snake Clan for surveillance footage to see who they really were.

Fuma Kotaro handed the matter over to Genjiro, telling him to handle it himself. Coincidentally, the latter was also curious about where the guy who kidnapped his sister came from, so he sent him a photo.

Anyway, all three students at Kassel College already knew what Lu Mingfei looked like, so there was no way to hide it from him.

The photos he sent were from the surveillance footage of the four of them returning from Shikato Town the night before last to confront Tachibana Masamune. He specifically chose an angle that only captured Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang to take a screenshot and save it.

They had hoped that Angers could mobilize the resources of the Kassel College to investigate Lu Mingfei's background, but unexpectedly, Angers went silent after receiving the photos.

……

The dim night enveloped the streets of Shibuya, and the moonlight reflected a pale halo on the glass curtain walls of the high-rise buildings.

Hilbert Jean Angers stood at the crossroads, his silver-gray suit swaying slightly in the evening breeze.

He raised his hand to look at his watch, his brows furrowing slightly.

After receiving the message from Genjiro, he ordered Norma, or rather Eva, who had already activated war mode, to infiltrate Japan's network and search for Lu Mingfei's whereabouts.

The power of the super artificial intelligence was on full display at this moment, and Lu Mingfei, who had not made much effort to disguise himself, was soon exposed to the sight of Kassel College.

Eva found a photo of Lu Mingfei and Erii eating fried chicken at KFC. A passerby who took the photo with them uploaded it to social media, which Eva easily caught.

Upon learning that Lu Mingfei had been spotted in the Shibuya area, Angers didn't waste any time and went straight to find him, leaving in a hurry without even saying goodbye to Inuyama He.

But when he arrived in Shibuya, Eva told him bad news: someone had cut off the surveillance cameras in Lu Mingfei's area, and she could not get the other party's exact location.

Angers knew that this must be the same organization that had taken Lu Mingfei from France, so he wasn't surprised. He simply instructed Eva to closely monitor the network activity while he searched the areas where the surveillance had failed.

They searched all afternoon but couldn't find any trace of Lu Mingfei.

His phone vibrated; it was a message from the Snake-Gi-Hachi family, reminding him that the welcoming banquet was about to begin and asking when he would be back.

Angers sighed softly and made a gesture that was very unlike his usual self.

He rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache.

I thought everything was under my control, but I never expected that just an interview invitation would break the calm surface and cause uncontrollable waves, which have now even turned into a huge storm.

Before this, Lu Mingfei's best performance was nothing more than fighting Deadpool with a gun.

But only a few days had passed, and the child was already able to stand shoulder to shoulder with a super hybrid. The speed at which he grew stronger was simply unbelievable. In just one week, he had reached a level that ordinary people could never reach in a lifetime. He glanced at the bustling street in the distance. It was rush hour, and the flow of people was enormous. As far as the eye could see, people were packed together, and you couldn't see the road at all.

Finding two young people in this environment is as difficult as climbing to the sky.

Given Lu Mingfei's current strength, if he doesn't want to show himself, it will be very difficult for them to find him.

"Never mind, let's leave it at that for now," he muttered to himself, turning and walking toward the Maserati parked not far away.

However, just as he took a few steps, a commotion suddenly broke out on the next street.

"boom--!!!"

The deafening crash of glass and brick walls shattering drowned out the clamor of the bustling traffic and surging crowds, followed by panicked screams from the crowd.

Upon hearing the sound, Angers' pupils contracted sharply, and his body instinctively rushed towards the source of the sound.

His movements were incredibly fast; passersby only felt a gust of wind before his silver-gray figure disappeared around the street corner.

The adjacent street was in chaos, with shards of glass and bricks scattered everywhere, and pedestrians fleeing in panic.

Two high school girls were hugging each other tightly. One of them had her uniform skirt torn by flying glass shards, and sharp glass shards pierced her thigh, the bright red blood seeping out staining her white over-the-knee stockings.

The Toyota sedan parked on the roadside had its alarm blaring, and its roof was deeply dented from being smashed by a half-damaged wall.

In the middle of the road, an elderly man with white hair was struggling to get up from the rubble.

His clothes were tattered and faded beyond recognition, and he wore a half-broken noble mask. Blood gushed from a wound on his forehead, dripping onto the road through the cracks in the mask.

"A hybrid?"

As Angers rushed to the end of the street, he squinted and saw the fierce-looking figure. His right hand was already on the handle of the folding knife in the inner pocket of his suit.

His gaze swept quickly around him. Pedestrians were watching from a distance, their faces filled with horror, as the old man who had crashed through the second floor, fallen to the ground, and was still able to get up. They were shouting that he was a monster.

Finally, his gaze fell on the pitch-black second floor of the restaurant, wondering if this was yet another assassination attempt by the Ghost Clan.

But whether they are right or wrong, their behavior has gone too far. The secret of their mixed-race heritage may be exposed to normal people at any time, and they must be stopped!
Uesugi Koshi shakily steadied himself, his golden eyes burning with a terrifying light beneath the shattered mask.

He stared intently at the gap on the second floor of the restaurant, his exhausted muscles tensing up again, as if he would rush up once he caught his breath.

But just as he gritted his teeth and continued to draw strength from his body, his keen ears caught the sound of footsteps rapidly approaching from behind.

The enraged last emperor suddenly turned around, his calloused fists clenched, ready to deliver a powerful punch that would send anyone in his way flying three meters away.

However, the old man's movements suddenly froze the moment he turned around.

Uesugi Koshi stared intently at that handsome face that had endured a century of time. A few seconds later, a hoarse, barely audible voice came from beneath the shattered mask:

"Angers?!"

Suddenly called out by name, Angers, who had intended to subdue the man with one blow and run away before the passersby could react and take pictures, was taken aback. He looked at the old man in front of him with a hesitant gaze, who was covered in blood and alcohol. He could feel a familiar aura from the man.

Uesugi Kotsushi brushed away the remaining half of the mask, revealing an old face covered in dust and blood:

"It's me, Uesugi Koshi!"

Angers was shocked upon hearing this. He quickly stepped forward, cautiously examining the large hole above, and asked urgently, "How did you get here? Who beat you up like this?"

Uesugi Kotsu's breathing was rapid, like an old, broken bellows, and his voice was filled with anxiety and fear that Angers had never heard before: "There's no time to explain, my daughter is still up there!"
Angers, that guy is too strong, I'm no match for him at all!

Only you can save her, please, save my daughter!

Upon hearing this, Angers was deeply shaken.

He knew Uesugi Kotsu's strength all too well; this guy was a genuine humanoid dragon.

Even at his peak, without using Time Zero, he wouldn't be a match for this Shadow Emperor of the Snake Clan.

But now, this once-powerful monster has actually admitted that he is no match for others.
And she even showed such a humble expression, almost begging him to go and save people.

Taking a deep breath, Angers stopped talking and dashed towards the restaurant like an arrow.

The moment he stepped through the gate, his golden eyes ignited with a dazzling gold, and the domain of Time Zero silently unfolded—

The whole world seemed to slow down in his eyes. The falling debris from the ceiling froze in mid-air, the panicked passersby around him were frozen in the moment they turned around, and even the falling dust stopped in mid-air.
