Dragon Clan: I am Lu Mingfei, the Intelligence Strategist, the God of Concepts!

Chapter 101 Angers returns from vacation, and the sky falls!
Cheng Shuangfan understood what Nuwa meant, and the content of the accusation was within her expectations.
However, one particular word caught his attention.
"You...you mean the orthodox system needs to be changed...reformed?"
Cheng Shuangfan opened her eyes wide, and her voice became stammering.
“Yes,” Nuwa said matter-of-factly. “With such a great change in the times, our orthodox tradition must also keep up with the times and rebuild our team.”
"I don't quite understand what you mean." Cheng Shuangfan's expression hardened slightly.
"Ahem, change always happens in many ways..."
Nuwa glanced at Lu Mingfei, who was resting with his eyes closed, and said with a smile, "For example, recruiting talented people and appointing them to positions of power. Anyway, you can ask Angers to come and listen when the time comes, and then you will know."
"hiss--"
Cheng Shuangfan gasped.
He guessed what Nuwa meant. Sure enough, the Chen family incident had fermented to this point and was about to escalate into something huge.
It seems that Nuwa is planning to regain complete control over the handling of matters concerning the dragon race within the country!
They even planned to cut off Kassel College's domestic student recruitment!
That's truly a display of great courage!
But, but...
"Why didn't you say so sooner! If you had done this a few years earlier, I, Cheng Shuangfan, wouldn't have had to take the Kassel route. Now I'm constantly being held back by this and that, and I can't get anything done!"
Cheng Shuangfan's voice carried a hint of grief and indignation.
To be honest, he was really a bit numb after the last operation was called off.
Especially now that it's been clearly discovered that the Chen family has serious problems! This makes him wonder just how deep the waters are in Kassel? Why would they be protecting a family like that?
If it weren't for his deep sense of patriotism and his awareness of the significant implications of his position, he would have quit long ago.
Now, Nuwa says she wants the orthodox tradition, which has always remained uninvolved, to take the lead and establish a new system within the country?
This feeling is so good!
Putting aside everything else, Cheng Shuangfan absolutely acknowledges Nuwa and the Zhou family.
Thinking of this, Cheng Shuangfan's face showed more expectation: "When are you planning to start? When that happens, we'll be completely turning over a new leaf!"
"what……?"
Nuwa was also taken aback, not expecting this guy to react this way.
Immediately, a hint of doubt appeared on her little face. "Really? Are you sure you can do it?"
Cheng Shuangfan's expression immediately froze.
He thought to himself, "I've been a branch manager for so many years, and I have an S-class bloodline. I'm respected everywhere I go, but Nuwa looks at me with such contempt."
But there's really no other way.
Firstly, in terms of seniority, he had just come down from a dragon-slaying battlefield at the level of a dragon king; secondly, in terms of strength, he could indeed kill him with a single sword strike; and thirdly, in terms of seniority, he was still the head of the Zhou family.
From a moral, public, and logical standpoint, he was indeed just a little Kalami in front of Nuwa... We can't just talk about age, can we?
Cheng Shuangfan had long heard of the deeds of Nuwa, and she had often teased and tugged at the beards of the Zhou family's old-timers.
However, before he could remain in an awkward position, Nuwa seemed to remember something, her expression quickly brightening as she reached out her small hand and patted Cheng Shuangfan's shoulder in an old-fashioned manner.
"We'll talk about that later. Just let me know about this first, okay?"
"no problem!"
Cheng Shuangfan immediately patted her chest and assured him.
Before leaving, he glanced at Lu Mingfei again, almost imperceptibly.
There's something off about the young boy's posture with Nuwa... He looks like a member of the Zhou family, but it feels like Nuwa is the one wiping his body and healing his wounds? In my memory, Nuwa isn't usually this patient; there should be a limit to how much she treats people with respect.
Forget it, take care of him.
Cheng Shuangfan secretly shook her head. Once the thought of changing jobs took root, it immediately took off like a wild horse running wildly.
……
Not long after Cheng Shuangfan was sent away by a group of Zhou family members who were eyeing her covetously.
Another group of people who had been sent to the medical building have returned, bringing with them the expected news.
The mysterious shooter had already left without leaving any trace.
Nuwa frowned slightly; she had made Lu Mingfei sit on the edge of the pit for this very reason.
The moment the gun fired,
The Zhou family's experts, who were familiar with sniper rifles, immediately determined the bullet's trajectory and origin.
Despite the harsh weather conditions and the distance of 2.4 kilometers, from any perspective, this is undoubtedly a sharpshooter. Although this shot was aimed at the Dragon King, no one can guarantee that the next shot will not be aimed at Lu Mingfei.
If he were in his prime, he wouldn't be afraid, but now Lu Mingfei is already exhausted and basically unable to move, greatly increasing the risk.
It would be best to confirm the specific circumstances first.
"We can let Nuonuo take a look and try profiling," Lu Mingfei whispered a suggestion.
Nono? The eldest daughter of the Chen family?
Nuwa narrowed her eyes and met Lu Mingfei's innocent gaze.
"Fine," she sighed.
……
Meanwhile, at Kassel College.
Manstein, acting as the professor on duty, convened an emergency meeting. The attendees were few, including his old friend Professor Guderian, and the rector of Angers and Professor Schneider, the head of the executive department, whom he had finally managed to contact.
The former is another professor on duty today.
The latter two attended online via video, and it appeared that they were not in the same place. Norma used a great deal of authority to contact them separately.
"That's pretty much the situation. According to Minister Cheng Shuangfan, the orthodox Zhou family has dealt with the King of the Ocean and Water, but we're about to face a lot of trouble."
Manstein gave a brief introduction to the situation.
The screen was completely silent.
Angers' hand, which was cutting a cigar, froze in place, and Schneider seemed to be frozen in place as well.
Only Guderian beside him still showed signs of being alive, but he looked like a rusty machine. He had just wanted to take a break, but he never expected this to happen.
Looking at the non-still images, Manstein felt much better.
Indeed, sharing happiness is worse than enjoying it alone. Bad news also needs to be shared. Otherwise, if I have to shoulder all the burden by myself, what's the point of having you leaders?
Soon, another person joined the video conference.
Cheng Shuangfan, head of the China branch.
This thirty-year-old man was the youngest in the conference hall.
With his access
Angers finally regained his mobility, but at this moment he had no interest in cutting cigars anymore; his mind was filled with the information Manstein had just provided.
Damn it, I finally managed to go on a vacation... oh no, I finally managed to go on a mission to the Arctic, and now I feel like the sky has fallen when I get back?
“Frosty Fan, over there now…” Angers began hesitantly.
“Principal Angers, please use your title when you are working,” Cheng Shuangfan interrupted sternly.
"Huh? Oh." Angers paused, then changed his words, "Minister Cheng, has the Zhou family confirmed that they killed the King of the Ocean and Water?"
Clearly, he was more concerned about the death of the Dragon King than about the accusations.
Angers emphasized the word 'confirm'.
The death of the king of the ocean and water, a first-generation dragon king, is simply unbelievable; no dragon king in history has ever been confirmed dead.
If the Zhou family truly has the ability to confirm the killing of a Dragon King, then frankly...
He could consider joining too!
"I'm not sure. They didn't give me any accurate information, and I couldn't possibly approach them to confirm it."
Cheng Shuangfan bluntly stated that he naturally understood what Angers meant.
Under normal circumstances, dragons, especially high-ranking dragons, possess the ability to cocoon. Each time they revive, they prioritize creating 'eggs'. At the moment of death, they transfer their spirit into these eggs. Therefore, under normal circumstances, it is difficult for humans to completely kill a dragon; they can only send them into slumber time and time again.
The four dragon monarchs at the end of the throne have never truly died; they are like ghosts lurking in history, always able to return at the most unexpected times.
According to the deductions of dragon slayers throughout history, if a dragon king truly dies, his dragon king-level power will be preserved along with his remains.
This type of remains is also known as a 'dragon cross'.
To date, human dragon slayers have done virtually no research on the Dragonbone Cross, as they have never obtained it, and all information can only be inferred based on the characteristics of its bones, blood, and horns.
The atmosphere in the conference room eased for a moment.
Immediately, Cheng Shuangfan spoke up again, reminding him, "However... even if it means putting the King of the Ocean and Water into slumber, it is still a remarkable feat, isn't it?"
“You’re right, Minister Cheng,” Angers said slowly. “The great dragon slayer deserves our utmost respect. Was it Nuwa who made the move? Unfortunately, I’m not very familiar with this Nuwa.”
What else did she say?
Upon hearing this, Cheng Shuangfan's expression immediately turned solemn: "The old goddess Nuwa also stated that the Chen family, as a legitimate aristocratic family, colluded with the Dragon Clan and has been eliminated as traitors. However, the Gatuso family of the Secret Party is secretly colluding with the Chen family, and even when I was preparing to take action against the Chen family, I chose to protect them. I'm afraid this family's problems are not minor..."
"Wait, wait, wait!" Angers' expression suddenly froze. "When did you take action against the Chen family?"
"The relevant content has been sent to your email address," Cheng Shuangfan said strangely.
"Oh, oh, oh! I remember now, you can continue." Angers gave an awkward laugh.
Yeah, right... Who the hell checks their email when they're traveling? He probably has over 99 emails by now.
Cheng Shuangfan secretly pursed her lips, then said seriously:
"In short, the orthodox stance has been made clear... Now we'll see what the Secret Service's stance is."
……
When it comes to matters of reputation and profit, work efficiency often increases many times over.
It was shortly after the brief meeting at the main campus of Kassel College ended.
The other side of the world.
In a historic castle outside Rome, Italy.
Frost Gattuso, the current acting patriarch of the Gattuso family and a radical member of the Secret Service known as the "Sheep Fighter," is angrily slamming his fist on the table and knocking over a plate of cheese.
Looking at the report that had just been presented to him, Frost felt like he was going crazy.
"Are we, the Gattuso family, lackeys of the dragon race?"
"What the hell are you talking about?"
