A man among dragons, building a mysterious ancient church.

Chapter 157 Irrigation with Scorching Molten Steel

"This, how is this possible?!" Professor Manstein's forehead was covered in sweat; the sub-digit temperature of a late autumn night in Chicago seemed unable to cool him down.

Even from this distance, the flames in the surveillance footage seemed to have burned the professor, causing him to sweat profusely.

"How, how could these invaders use the power of words?" Professor Manstein looked at Guderian and Schneider in disbelief, and finally turned to Angers.

I hope to get an answer.

Professor Manstein's father is Nicholas, the vice-rector of Kassel.

Meanwhile, Vice Principal Nicholas's Word of Power - Commandments, amplified by the academy's alchemy matrix, enveloped the entire academy.

In theory, as long as it is within the academy's territory, no hybrid race whose bloodline is inferior to that of the one who releases the commandment can release the power of words.

So why were these invaders able to use the power of words to set fires?

His father, Nicholas, has an S-class bloodline. Theoretically, there can't be a higher bloodline. In other words, there can't be a hybrid. He should be able to use his power within the bounds of the rules.

Angers and Frost stopped arguing, their expressions becoming serious in unison.

Schneider pressed Manstein down, handed him a handkerchief to wipe his sweat, and managed to squeeze out a weak voice from his throat: "That is, the Dragon King."

"!" Professors Manstein and Guderian, as well as Percy, who was standing next to the two elderly people, all trembled involuntarily.

Dragon King!

Yes, if there is any being with a bloodline level higher than Vice Principal Nicholas, wouldn't it only be the Dragon King?
In other words, the Dragon King has attacked Kassel?!
When they watched the video of the Battle of the Two Kings in Philadelphia, they analyzed that one of the kings who could freely manipulate metal was the King of Bronze and the King of Fire.

Judging from the current situation, there is no doubt that the King of Bronze and Fire has invaded Kassel.

The question is, why did the Lord of Bronze and Fire attack Kassel?

“No, that can’t be right.” Manstein pointed to the mysterious man in the surveillance footage who was setting the fire alongside Old Tang and was still wearing the Sun Wukong mask: “Could it be that both of them are the Dragon King?”

Frost's face turned even more ashen. He knew that the twins sat on the Dragon King's throne!
Could it be that both Fire Kings have joined a mysterious organization?
Angers stared at the monitor screen, his brows furrowed deeply. This mysterious man in the Sun Wukong mask had appeared once before during the Three Gorges Operation, when he snatched Constantine from Professor Mans.

Therefore, he is definitely not one of the twins on the throne.

The reappearance of the masked man who played Sun Wukong undoubtedly signifies an attack by a mysterious organization.

But isn't the other person Chu Zihang? Angers has always suspected that Chu Zihang is the masked man from Sun Wukong.

Chu Zihang is currently in Philadelphia. He was just fighting with Caesar for the bathroom, so it definitely wasn't Chu Zihang!

Could it be that we were wrong from the very beginning? Chu Zihang didn't join this mysterious organization?
Or does the mysterious organization possess some kind of incredible spatial teleportation ability?
No, now is not the time to think about that.

Angers quickly dismissed his skepticism and considered whether to call his old friend and ask him to lift the vow.

Otherwise, if the enemy could use incantations, the students of Kassel would only be able to use melee weapons and firearms, putting them at a great disadvantage.

Angers made a quick decision, dialed the number, and ten seconds later, Kassel seemed to have lifted some restriction.

The people in the principal's office felt a sense of relief, and the power that had been suppressed for so long surged up again.

The students who were gathering everywhere cheered, and many of them took the initiative to protect the releasers of Word of Power Serpent and Word of Power Bloodline Chain, using these Void Serpents and Dragon Blood Sensing to search for enemies.

Just as everyone was lost in thought, Norma promptly alerted them: "Headmaster, a new wave of enemies has been detected, rapidly approaching Odin Hall."

"Also, Mr. Henkel and his group left the VIP lounge under the pretext of helping to protect Kassel."

After speaking, Norma switched between the two projection screens in the middle.

The image on the left shows a dozen men in black moving swiftly toward the interior of Kassel.

The image on the right shows Henkel leading seven young men deep into Kassel once again.

"Ha, Henkel." Frost stared coldly at Henkel on the screen, fully aware of the other's ulterior motives: "Help us protect Kassel? Trying to fool us like children?"

"Couldn't you even come up with a better excuse for lying?" Who doesn't know what Henkel is thinking right now?

It's simply that they never believed in Angers and were trying to find the Dragon Cross while things were in chaos!

“Alright, Frost.” Angers finally stood up: “More strength means more security.”

"Schneider, the command is now in your hands."

Just as Professor Schneider was about to say something, Angers vanished into thin air from the office, leaving behind only a window that had been opened at some point and the evening breeze blowing in.

Frost and Percy's expressions tightened simultaneously. Frost even instinctively placed his hand on his neck, gently rubbing it with his thumb and forefinger. There was no sticky feeling of blood; thankfully, he hadn't been stabbed.

Several seconds later, the two finally breathed a sigh of relief, their foreheads inexplicably beaded with cold sweat, as if from the chilly wind: "Word of Power - Time Zero..."

Schneider calmly took over command and quickly asked Norma to convey his orders to properly arrange the 700 students still at school, as well as the elite of the executive department.

Unfortunately, Henkel, while claiming to be following Schneider's orders, was still lingering around Kassel, saying one thing in public and another in private, and Schneider had no way to deal with them.

"We've run into him!" Guderian exclaimed, interrupting Schneider's attention from Henkel.

It turns out that Lao Tang and his group of five, who had been acting recklessly all the way, have now arrived at the central square and begun to engage in combat with the elite members of the executive department and senior students above the second year of university who are guarding the square.

Gunfire thundered and bullets rained down. Following what they had learned in class, the students launched a pincer attack from both sides, hiding in the buildings on both sides of the square, always staggering their firing and reloading, creating a perfect and continuous crossfire.

The cross-shaped barrage of bullets often appears on the brutal battlefield, tearing apart the bodies of countless soldiers.

They hadn't fought this hard when they were free, not even when they were beating Chu Zihang.

Lancelot, the vice president of the Lionheart Society and a third-year university student from France, directed two groups of people to shoot.

The crossfire looked dense and intimidating, but not a single bullet could penetrate Old Tang's defenses.

Under the forging of the realm of Old Tang's Word of Power: Heaven and Earth as a Furnace, all the rapidly flying bullets melted in an orderly manner, turning into molten steel one after another.

It became a raw material for metallurgy.

Two meters away from Old Tang, more and more bullets crashed into the Word Spirit Domain, which was like a furnace between heaven and earth, and those that submitted turned into molten steel.

Like a swarm of moths drawn to a flame, they turned into pools of scalding orange-red flesh.

Faced with the King of Bronze and Fire, bullets made of metal are just that easy to betray him.

The dense, all-encompassing bullets were all melted into the molten steel, like accumulated water forming a river, and all rivers flowing into the sea.

The massive amount of molten steel completely enveloped Lao Tang and his group.

A scorching, flowing orange-red wave formed right in front of them, but fortunately, Lao Tang insulated himself from the heat, so it didn't affect his teammates.

"Go!" Old Tang was in high spirits, so excited that his eyes faintly revealed a majestic golden hue. He was too lazy to do metallurgy and simply manipulated the molten steel to fight back.

Then, the increasingly thick and abundant molten steel transformed into two orange-red high-temperature waves that poured towards the buildings on both sides!

Lancelot shouted at the top of his lungs, waving a megaphone and commanding, "Take cover! Unleash the power of words!"

The students, finding their words of magic useless, quickly jumped back to avoid the molten steel, fearing they would be melted upon contact.

Students who could use their spiritual power unleashed their full potential, instantly turning the square into a stage performance, with dazzling, multicolored lights shining everywhere.

Manipulating physical entities with words of power, such as Yin Liu and Jian Yu, collectively apply a force to molten steel to deflect it, attempting to forcibly distort its direction, or manipulating tables and trees to block it head-on.
Elemental spells, such as Yin Thunder, Vortex, and Blazing, collide fiercely with molten steel, blasting it in another direction.

However, some students were unable to dodge in time, or their words of power failed to transfer or stop the molten steel. They were swept away and engulfed by the surging molten steel, and violent gas suddenly expanded, filling a few rooms.

The gunfire subsided for a moment, and after a brief respite, a magnificent and wondrous sight appeared in Kassel Square: the molten metal of the buildings stretching from the square to both sides gradually solidified and slowly turned dark red.

Looking around, the square and the buildings on both sides looked as if they had been splashed with lava, filled with intense heat that could make you dizzy. Various charred and melted building materials, drops of blackened molten steel, and a pungent smell that made you want to vomit.
