A man among dragons, building a mysterious ancient church.

Chapter 108 How is it possible to have zero deaths?
"Professor Mans!"

"professor!"

The two fought so quickly that the others in Kassel couldn't keep up. When they saw that Mans' left and right hands were injured, the Kassel students and executive members finally reacted.

While showing concern and calling out, they also released their respective spiritual powers.

The Word of Power, Blazing Sun, scorched the dense bats with light and heat, quickly dispelling the darkness and burning away the bats that had been pecking at Mans's wrist.

The Word of Power: Yin Thunder compresses the air to its limit, generating an explosive force comparable to a hand grenade, in an attempt to trap Aso Makoto.

Aso Makoto broke free from his constraints, as free as a fish leaping in the sea and a bird soaring in the sky, easily dodging the explosion of the Yin Thunder with a casual dodge.

Mans stumbled back several steps and slammed into the hull with a thud. He didn't care that his back was burning hot; he needed something to support him so that he wouldn't fall to the ground.

Mans was in a terrible state. His left wrist was charred black, with a few yellowish-brown bubbles rising from it, as if someone had poured a can of aqua regia on it. His right hand had been gnawed so badly that the white bone was faintly visible, which was quite horrifying.

Having escaped, Aso Makoto became even more cautious. To avoid being restricted in his movements again by some strange and unusual words of power, he did not engage in close combat but maintained a certain distance.

Xu Lie had previously explained to Aso Shin that the incantations of hybrid races generally have a range limitation of about 20 meters.

Unless it's some special high-risk incantation, or it's amplified by an alchemical matrix.

Since that's the case, let's maintain a distance of more than 20 meters and move around to attack!
Taking advantage of his speed, Makoto Aso circled around Mans and his group, flying at low altitude and maintaining a mid-range distance of 20 meters, unleashing various dark spells like a machine gun.

When the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy retreats, we advance. This tactic has kept Mans and his men extremely annoyed!
The people in Kassel were extremely frustrated, unable to touch or reach him, and most of their incantation abilities were ineffective against Aso Makoto, who was 20 meters away.

Its speed was so fast, like a ghost, that even firing a gun wouldn't help.

Aso Makoto's speed can't match that of a bullet, but when he moves left and right, it's impossible for him to aim. Even if he anticipates the movement, he has no chance.

They need to be careful to avoid being pierced and injured by the dark spears and dark feathers that Aso Makoto occasionally throws out.

Mans, enduring the excruciating pain in his hands, tried to attract Aso's attention and attempted to control himself one more time: "Who are you? Why are you enemies of Kassel?!"

Aso Shin didn't answer, continuing to circle around casting spells on his own. The Old Church was still in a dormant development phase and it wasn't appropriate for it to be exposed to Kassel.

Besides, Mans had already tricked her once, and Aso was unwilling to listen to anything Mans said again.

She can't be so naive anymore!
Faced with such an enemy, Mans had no choice but to forcefully hold back the Dustless Land and shield the people of Cassel from the dark magic.

The stalemate didn't last long before Aso Shin took flight and quickly left. She always remembered that she stayed behind only to buy time so that Xu Lie and his group could retreat.

When we arrived, we witnessed the speed of Fingel and Chu Zihang. Even with Susie added, their retreat speed should not be slow.

Furthermore, Aso Masato was not bloodthirsty and did not intend to eliminate all of Mans' group.

Upon witnessing Aso Makoto's flying speed, Mans' face contorted with pain as he finally realized that they had completely lost the Dragon King's urn this time!

“Professor,” Selma said with concern, stepping closer, “Let’s treat the wound first. If it continues to worsen, it could be fatal.”

The remaining members of the executive department also brought out specialized medications, preparing to disinfect, stop the bleeding, and finally bandage Professor Mans.

Mans silently accepted the students' kindness, wrapping his hands up like dumplings: "Take stock of the casualties from this operation..." "And, what happened to the keys?"

The key is a nickname for a child, a special mixed-race individual in the Chen family who never grows up. He has always been an infant, but his blood is special and can unlock many ruins. This time, he was specially borrowed by Cassel.

Professor Mans felt incredibly heavy-hearted after bringing so many people with him, only to lose so many, and then having his work stolen.

The students quickly began taking notes. The first to report that the key was fine, and that they had been hiding in the captain's lounge since the battle began, and were very safe.

The subsequent statistics were somewhat unexpected: "Professor, the number of deaths in this operation was zero."

"What did you say?" Mans grabbed Selma's shoulders, refusing to let go despite the excruciating pain in his injured hands: "Zero deaths?"

Mans hadn't forgotten the scene where the Third Mate was right beside him, his heart exploding in blood. A bullet to the heart—even the strongest hybrid couldn't survive that.

How is it possible to have zero deaths?
“Yes, it’s a Friga bullet.” Selma was a little startled by Mance’s agitation, but she understood his feelings and quickly suppressed her emotions to calmly explain, “We’ve checked it.”

"All those who were sniped are still alive, but they have fallen into a deep sleep under the influence of anesthesia. In terms of effect, it is very similar to the Friga bullets that we used to use frequently during Freedom Day."

"In addition, the three senior executives who were knocked down earlier are not in life-threatening condition. Two of them were knocked unconscious and had no external injuries. The last senior was shot in the back, but it was also a Friga bullet."

Finally, Selma, still bewildered, concluded: "The other side showed mercy."

This is the most confusing part.

The fight to the death was about snatching the Dragon King's bone vial from Cassel, yet the other party held back from the very beginning and didn't kill anyone?
Did they think that this would prevent Kassel from investigating or retaliating?
That's incredibly naive! How could there be such a naive mixed-race power?

Even if Mansson owes a debt of gratitude for those lives, it won't affect Kassel. Kassel has always been under the control of Principal Angers and the Board of Trustees.

Putting aside Principal Angers, the school board would definitely retaliate against such a major case as the theft of the Dragon King's bones. How could they possibly give up just because of a few lives?

That's the Dragon King's urn!

It contains immense benefits, a treasure that no one would give up.

Let alone Selma, even the brilliant Professor Mance couldn't come up with an answer for a while: "Never mind, it's a blessing in disguise that no one died."

"Report the entire incident back to headquarters and let the principal have a headache."

With his emotions fluctuating wildly, coupled with the injuries to his hands, Mans no longer had the energy to think things through.

“Uh.” Selma hesitated for a few seconds before reporting another piece of bad news: “But the relevant departments just sent a message that they will come to confirm the scene as soon as possible.”

Mans' heart skipped a beat. He subconsciously looked around and saw the charred front half of the Moniach, as well as the machine guns, naval guns, and missiles on both sides.

Once these things are seen, even if Kassel wants to deal with the aftermath, who knows how much more he will have to pay.

Mans wasn't sure if Angers would continue to suffer from headaches, but his head was already starting to hurt.
