Dragon Clan: Retired Death, goes to work to slay dragons

Someone behind the black curtain played strings and clarinet.

Everyone in the venue was also attracted by the music. All the guests were already seated but no one was making any noise, quietly listening to the sudden performance feast.

They are all self-proclaimed well-educated people, and their taste in music is naturally high. They can tell that the music is played and not recorded, and they have always been very patient with art.

This familiar first movement, brilliant Allegro, minor key, 24 beats, sonata form, with the famous four-note movement played by the clarinet and strings in unison.

The repeated "bang-bang-bang-bang-" rhythm seems to be imitating the sound of knocking on the door of destiny, like a warrior fighting against fate and fighting tenaciously.

Everyone heard this familiar melody almost immediately, and recognized this world-famous song that everyone knew and was widely circulated.

"Beethoven's Symphony No. 5 in C minor?" Chu Zihang, standing behind Jiang Shouyun, whispered.

"Symphony of Destiny", also known as "Beethoven's Symphony No. 5 in C minor", is a symphony composed by German composer Ludwig van Beethoven.

A band plays the first movement of "Symphony of Destiny" behind the curtain, before fate fights.

Just the prelude brought everyone into the vivid emotions of facing and fighting fate in "Symphony of Destiny".

Jiang Shouyun was equally familiar with this piece of music. It was the same piece he had listened to in the 3E exam.

However, without those complicated and inexplicable "dragon texts", I feel more like it now.

There is no confusing noise, and all kinds of music are perfectly gathered together. The rhythm gradually changes and repeats, and the momentum continues to increase. It seems to show the cruelty of fate and the fear and uneasiness in people's hearts.

With the third movement, Allegro, in C minor, 3/4 time, Scherzo form, after the foreshadowing and repetition of the previous two movements, the struggle against fate reaches its climax.

The cello and double bass play with a solemn and slow tone, indicating the continuation of the struggle, and then are suddenly interrupted by rapid, high-spirited notes, and then return to the cello and double bass parts repeatedly.

In a daze, Jiang Shouyun seemed to see a figure, waving the baton in his hand vigorously as if wielding a sword in the face of fate, leading the people behind him to continuously charge towards fate.

Soon, fate played its final chapter.

Finally, it reached its peak, then slowly fell, and the music gradually fell silent.

Instead, there is another kind of high.

The applause is like the sound of rain, continuous and dense, pattering, and lasting.

Jiang Shouyun also applauded heartily, but the applause soon became weaker and weaker.

Because he suddenly discovered that in the high applause, an invisible wave gradually spread to the entire audience.

The crystal chandeliers in the venue were extinguished one after another, and finally only the giant chandelier in the center of the dome was still on.

"What's going on?" Jiang Shouyun couldn't help but be startled when he saw this, and his blue eyes glanced behind him.

I saw more than a hundred pairs of eyes of various colors, including Chu Zihang's, changing almost at the same time.

At this moment, the entire venue seemed to be brightly lit, but what illuminated the place was no longer the crystal chandelier, but... more than a hundred pairs of golden eyes.

Here, gold cards, platinum cards, and black cards are all bullshit.

Those participating in the auction are all human-dragon hybrids, and the bright golden eyes represent noble blood. This is a feast unique to dragons!

"You don't look nervous at all?" came a slightly curious voice from the side.

Jiang Shouyun glanced beside him and met a pair of golden eyes like bright lights.

It was a woman with long silver-white hair and a ponytail. At first glance, she looked reminiscent of a swan, and her skin was as white as the downy white feathers on the swan's body.

But it's not like a sickly pale color, but a reddish softness.

Their eyes met, and the woman was stunned for a moment as she looked into his blue eyes.

"You, you didn't light up your golden eyes?" the woman blurted out in surprise.

In this sea of ​​golden eyes, Jiang Shouyun's blue eyes are like a green-eyed Hu man sitting in a Chang'an restaurant in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, as dazzling as an alien!

However, the woman inadvertently glanced at Chu Zihang beside her. Those golden eyes as thick as lava made her heart sink subconsciously, and she avoided Chu Zihang's sight.

This kind of bloodline... is he just a bodyguard?

"Huh?" Jiang Shouyun looked up and down at the woman who was talking to him, and asked expressionlessly, "Do I know you?"

He now understood what was going on, and was speechless and complaining in his heart.

"If you hold an auction and light up those two big light bulbs, why do these guys like to show off their blood purity so much? Where do the bastards in the eyes of the Dragon Clan get their sense of superiority?"

After the first few hybrids with stronger bloodlines lighted up, other little dragons with weaker bloodlines also lighted up. It felt like a group of chuunibyou masquerade parties.

But to Jiang Shouyun, they were just a bunch of light bulbs, with nothing more than a difference in brightness, not even as good as Chu Zihang's.

"Sorry, I was offended."

The woman looked at him deeply and showed a perfect ceremonial smile: "My name is Karima Vasa, hello."

Although Jiang Shouyun's attitude was cold, she did not feel angry. She only thought that the other party was a secret noble.

The bloodline is noble.

A little temper is normal.

"The Vassar family?" Fingel's teasing voice came from the earphones, "Teacher Jiang's popularity with women is really good."

Jiang Shouyun raised his eyebrows in surprise.

The Vasa dynasty was a feudal dynasty in Sweden and Poland. The young Swedish nobleman Gustav led the war against the Danes. After winning the war, he became the king of Sweden in 1523, called Gustav I Vasa.

Because he was born into the Swedish noble Vasa family, his dynasty was called the Vasa dynasty.

As early as the 17th century, the rule of the Vasa dynasty in Sweden had ended. Unexpectedly, the Vasa family was also a mixed-race family.

But it's not surprising. Mixed races are distributed in different regions of the world, and dragon bloodlines spread to all parts of the world with marriages.

But because of their blood, they will eventually attract each other, and eventually form a mixed-race settlement, forming a sub-society hidden in human society.

If we look at the number of mixed races in the world, the students at Cassel College are only a small minority.

Although the predecessor of Kassel Academy was the Secret Party, its first purpose was to exterminate all pure-blood dragons.

But not every mixed-race species holds this concept. More mixed-race species also have their own social norms. Most mixed-race species believe that their bloodline is superior to that of ordinary people, and they are the third race between humans and dragons.

Some families have existed for thousands of years and have accumulated astonishing amounts of wealth and power.

Different forces also need to communicate, and auctions are one of their ways of socializing.
