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

Chapter 87 My Chen family is finally about to rise...

Nuwa resided in the main hall.

What was placed in front of me was no longer a laptop, but stacks of paper documents.

During this period, in addition to the Zhou family's liaison personnel constantly visiting other aristocratic families, Nuwa also participated in various coordination efforts.

As the saying goes, "an army marches on its stomach," and for that final push, at least ninety-nine steps of preparation must be completed beforehand. The level of exhaustion involved goes without saying; even Nuwa felt her head buzzing.

"You are here."

Hearing footsteps coming from the palace gate, Nuwa raised her head and smiled.

"Nuwa... wait? Why are we the only ones here? Is no one else here?"

Lu Mingfei looked around and found the hall empty, with no one else present, which made him feel a little strange.

Wasn't it supposed to be a mobilization meeting?

When Zhou Minhao told him about it, he got a little excited. He immediately recalled the scene of the oath-taking ceremony of the military training at Shilan High School in the first year of high school. Several people on the stage were talking non-stop, and everyone below the stage was shouting and yelling. It was so lively.

So why is the Zhou family about to engage in a real fight, while there are hardly any people here...? Don't we need to mobilize the others?

"The general arrangements have been made. I called you here to ask for your opinion," Nuwa said with a smile.

"My opinion?"

Lu Mingfei was a little confused. "What objection could I possibly have?"

"Ahem... What I mean is, would you be interested in participating in this attack on the Chen family?"

"hiss--"

Lu Mingfei was immediately shocked. "Wait, so you didn't include me in the first place? Isn't this is isolating me?"

"No, no...tsk, I'm just asking for your opinion. After all, you can't force people to go to war. Our Zhou family is very humane, okay? It's all voluntary."

Nuwa said with a smile.

Zhou Minhao, standing to the side, secretly rolled his eyes.

Look at what you're saying. During this period, which of the younger generation of the Zhou family hasn't been summoned to temporarily put aside their current affairs and rush back to accept assignments? Take Zhou Minhao for example, he, as the CEO of the wafer fab in Kunshan, hasn't shown his face for almost a month or two.

Of course, as a member of the Zhou family, it's only right that he contributes to the family in crucial moments. Besides, he doesn't want to spend all his time dealing with piles of data reports; he'd much rather have some fighting and killing to his liking. He just feels that the two of them are putting on such a fake show of politeness...

"...I! Lu Mingfei, am willing to be the vanguard!"

Before Zhou Minhao could finish complaining in his mind, he heard Lu Mingfei speak up righteously.

Well, here comes another episode of "The General's Order".

now.

Lu Mingfei's eyes gleamed with a warlike light.

Just kidding, how could we not include him in the attack on the Chen family? The E region is the Zhou family's stronghold, and it has been peaceful for thousands of years. Even if there are those who don't understand the situation and try to cause trouble, they are only a few small fry.

He didn't get to fully enjoy his social practice activities during this period!
If you finally get a chance and then miss it, wouldn't that be a waste? You have to test your marksmanship!
"Alright! Then you're included."

Nuwa wasn't surprised and waved her little hand.

One by one, documents, reports, and plans floated smoothly toward Lu Mingfei like snowflakes.

"Take a look at these first. They are all important intelligence. At least we know the basics."

"Ah this..."

Looking at the pile of paper, which was about ten centimeters thick, Lu Mingfei's warlike light immediately dissipated by half, and he even felt like a mediocre student being humiliated by a top student.

No, I'm just a frontline soldier. You point and I'll go wherever you want. Why bother with all this useless stuff?
Furthermore, how could there be so much important intelligence?

"Hehe, this is for your safety. Do you think the Chen family members are just standing there waiting to be killed? Otherwise, you'll have no choice but to stay by my side."

Nuwa smiled maliciously.

Lu Mingfei was speechless for a moment, and seriously suspected that the girl was retaliating against him, but he had no evidence.

However, he still quickly skimmed through it.

This pile of reports was actually compiled for Nuwa, the 'commander-in-chief'. Apart from the detailed plans and arrangements, there were also some parts that Lu Mingfei could understand.

The Zhou family's plan to attack the Chen family was not too complicated; it could be summarized in three words.

Encircle, attack, annihilate.

The target of this attack was only one thing: the Chen family's old manor. It was a vast estate. In addition to the core area being the residence of the Chen family patriarch, the manor also contained a large number of secret research institutes, factories, and similar buildings such as the weapon-refining pavilion and library that rivaled those of the Zhou family's palace.

Of course, as the Chen family embraced the world more thoroughly, buildings with similar functions no longer used this rather ancient-style name.

However, as the ancestral home of the Chen family, it is absolutely vital and just like the Zhou family's underground palace. It must not be lost or fall into the hands of others.

Therefore, the first step of 'encirclement' was just for show. The Zhou family's 'order' was an open conspiracy, and the Chen family had to accept it no matter what, unless they were willing to become stray dogs, lose their legitimate position, and become a laughing stock in the global mixed-race community.

However, if the Chen family successfully resists the Zhou family's attack and emerges as the 'victor,' then the Zhou family will have to make corresponding compensation.
Finally, there is also the possibility that the two sides made peace during the war, which is another story.

This is one of the ways that orthodox families resolve problems.

According to the intelligence gathered by the Zhou family's outpost during this period, the Chen family is also actively making preparations. They have not only dismissed ordinary employees from the research institute and factory within the manor, but are also constantly mobilizing troops and sending a large number of transport vehicles to and from the manor, transporting valuable production materials out and bringing in weapons, equipment and personnel.

In summary, they seem very eager to test their skills against their own top leader.

"A bit abstract."

Lu Mingfei was dumbfounded. It's the 21st century, and they're still reading Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

“This is the proper way of doing things. You’ll get used to it.” Nuwa then twitched the corner of her mouth.

Lu Mingfei turned to the next page, his forehead furrowing even deeper.

"Why are there still audience seats?"

The information shows that...

To witness this long-awaited internal conflict within the orthodox lineage, representatives from other noble families within the orthodox lineage will also be sent to 'observe the ceremony'.

I'm just a casual observer, the kind who only watches and doesn't get involved.

"So this time it's a 1v1 clash between our Zhou family and the Chen family, right?" Lu Mingfei scratched his head. "I thought that as the leader of the martial arts alliance, we could command all the lords of the world to attack Chen or something." Nuwa shook her head: "Some families have offered to provide us with some assistance, but according to the rules, they would also get a share of the spoils afterward, so I refused. They probably just want a piece of the Chen family's pie. If they send some people in, it will only complicate the team and cause some backstabbing."

"I don't think it's necessary."

"understood."

Lu Mingfei's expression immediately became interesting. So Nuwa was worried about a scenario where eighteen warlords attacked Dong Zhuo... It's really like the Romance of the Three Kingdoms!
It feels like even the last layer of the orthodox filter has fallen off.

"However, at least they won't help the Chen family, so the Chen family will most likely have to find someone outside to help them this time."

Nuwa frowned slightly. "The only thing that I find a little strange is that the Gattuso family hasn't made any moves."

"Gattuso?" Lu Mingfei asked with some curiosity.

"Hmm... It's the family of the boyfriend of that Miss Chen you brought back last time. The Chen family and Gattuso have had a close relationship over the years. Some time ago, the domestic branch of Kassel College was preparing to take action against the Chen family, but it was the Gattuso family's board of directors who vetoed the action."

Oh… Lu Mingfei suddenly realized.

Caesar!

The last operation by the Kassel College branch was abruptly halted because that was an internal matter for the Secret Party, but this time the Zhou family's declaration of war against the Chen family is an internal matter for the Orthodox Party.

In this way, they are naturally powerless to help.

What the hell is it to you?

In fact, the Gattuso family also sent people to try to contact the Zhou family and speak on behalf of the Chen family, but Nuwa politely declined on the pretext that she was "in the middle of a team battle".

This is understandable. Gattuso is a mixed-race family that has only recently emerged in recent centuries. Although they have a lot of influence in the European Secret Party, in the minds of older mixed-race families, they are still stuck in the early days of the mafia coming to power.

Perhaps you are doing quite well now, but that doesn't mean I have to give you that kind of face.

"It doesn't matter, I will take action."

Lu Mingfei waved his hand and said casually.

I really don't care. I have a spear in my hand. I don't care who you call. I'll just stab you and that's it!
Infected by Lu Mingfei's bloodthirsty voice,

Old Tang, listening from the side, was itching to get out of his seat. In a couple of days, everyone would be going out, and he would be so bored being left alone at the Zhou family's house.

"How about you take me with you?" he asked hesitantly.

"you……"

Nuwa hesitated for a moment.

To be honest, her impression of Lao Tang was still based on the labels of "Lu Mingfei's friend" and "not afraid of being abused".

According to his subordinates, Old Tang doesn't seem to have any special talent. The Zhou family's recent favor towards him is simply out of affection for him; after all, they have a large family business, so they don't mind supporting another good-for-nothing.

"There might be danger..."

Nuwa hadn't finished speaking when
But then Lu Mingfei put his arm around Lao Tang's shoulder and winked at him.

"It's okay, we can do it together."

"It would be great to have Old Tang manage the water dispenser! No need to worry about his safety!"

"Is this like this?"

Nuwa was dumbfounded.

……

The old house of the Chen family.

One day remains until the Zhou family's attack.

After listening to his subordinates' summary report on the day's work, the head of the Chen family strode confidently toward his study.

Beneath the confident brows of the middle-aged man lay a deep-seated worry.

Leviathan... why haven't the reinforcements sent by Lord Odin arrived yet?

Moreover, this pure-blooded dragon...

Could she truly defeat Nuwa, who wields the Dragon-Slaying Platform?
He was well aware of the gap between the Chen and Zhou families. Everything else was negotiable, but the biggest problem lay in their top-tier combat power. Nuwa's strength was probably comparable to that of a next-generation species...

squeak-

The door opened.

A chilling white mist rose from the study, and the frosted lock made a hissing sound.

Unbeknownst to anyone, a stranger had appeared in the most heavily guarded study of the patriarch. He was dressed in a dark gray cloak that concealed his entire body, and wore a bird-beak mask in the style of a medieval plague doctor. He stood quietly in front of the desk, admiring the huge oil painting on the wall.

The painting depicts two giant dragons, one black and one white, swirling and dancing in the sky, amidst a rain of blood. A warrior riding an eight-legged steed raises his curved spear high towards the sky.

He, or rather 'Leviathan', slowly turned his head.

Those dark golden eyes shone with a captivating light.

The instant their eyes met,

An overwhelming dragon's might, a tidal wave of energy, surged forth!
"You are...Lord Leviathan?"

The head of the Chen family was terrified and trembled uncontrollably.

His proud lineage was so weak that he could barely stand in front of this man!
"Ah."

A nasal sound echoed from Leviathan's mask.

Next second,
Without hesitation, the head of the Chen family knelt down, prostrating himself on the ground, offering all his respect.

This is the end.

He was no longer worried, and a hint of anticipation even appeared on his lips as he made intimate contact with the ground.

The Zhou family... ha, from now on it will be the era of my Chen family...

Lord Leviathan!
It was actually a great dragon king!
