Dragon Raja's Number One Player

Chapter 159 Xia Mi's condition seems to be not good.

【Mental Splitting Technique (Gattuso)】

[Effect: Can split off one-third of its own health and mana. Upon death, it will revive in the same location with the stored one-third of its health and mana (cooldown 7 days; after revival, maximum health and mana will be restored to their original levels)]

[Introduction: One of the secret techniques the Gattuso family obtained through their research on dragons, and also the secret to their family's survival for thousands of years]

While the "Student Council" alone does not possess any secret techniques comparable to the "Lionheart Society's" "Bloodlust," Caesar, in addition to being the president of the "Student Council," also holds another identity: the eldest son of the Gattuso family and the next heir.

Upon seeing this item, Lin Zhiying's eyes lit up instantly. He knew that he absolutely had to join the "Student Council" today.

There's no way around it, this stuff just smells so good!

Let's see how it works first. Having this is like having an extra life, isn't it? He thought.

The cost of resurrecting a player after death increases with level, so having an extra life can save a lot of trouble!

Time cost is itself a cost.

It's like having a resurrection coin permanently!

Its only troublesome aspect, or rather its biggest cost, is that after using it, you will permanently lose one-third of your health and mana.

Furthermore, even after resurrection, it only has one-third of its health remaining, making it extremely vulnerable during this period.

However, these are minor issues for players, as they can easily resolve mana and health issues with a large number of potions.

In many cases, having an extra life means having an extra opportunity.

Imagine your opponent thinking you're dead, only to suddenly revive and launch a sneak attack from behind; or taking advantage of your opponent's inattention to grab your belongings and run away – both are good options.

Lin Zhiying took the notebook without hesitation.

To be honest, he originally only wanted to get a little something from Caesar, but he didn't expect it to be so plentiful.

This was all something he had discussed with Chu Zihang beforehand.

Let's go back to a short time ago, when we were in the dormitory.

Lin Zhiying was very surprised when Chu Zihang asked her to join the student council.

Although he had no objection to joining either club, he was puzzled as to why Chu Zihang was pushing him away.

It even seemed a bit rushed.

"Because by joining the student council, you can get more resources from Caesar."

Chu Zihang spoke up, mentioning the student council but referring to Caesar, which was undoubtedly a veiled reference.

Caesar has been spending lavishly on the Academy for so many years, and the Gattuso family isn't exactly a sucker. The reason they turn a blind eye, or even tacitly approve, is precisely because it benefits the Gattuso family.

Just like the so-called "disciples" in the ancient Chinese imperial examinations, once someone accepted money from the Gattuso family at the academy, they would inevitably become involved with them to some extent.

Chu Zihang meant that if he joined the "Student Council," he could not only use their resources but also those of the "Gattuso family."

That's true, but Lin Zhiying still has some fond memories of "Blood Explosion," after all, it's one of the few secret techniques that can flexibly change one's bloodline, and using it too often can even permanently enhance one's bloodline.

"However, I think your 'Lionheart Society's' 'Blood Explosion' is also quite good. As for resources, the academy should already be giving it preferential treatment."

There's no need to beat around the bush when talking about the relationship between Lin Zhiying and Chu Zihang.

Upon hearing this, Chu Zihang smiled slightly and said, "It's alright, I'll just teach you when the time comes."

"No one said that 'Blood Explosion' can only be learned by joining the 'Lionheart Society'."

Lin Zhiying was momentarily stunned by his words. Logically speaking, this kind of skill should not be taught, so why was he being taught it?

However, he quickly realized that "Blood Burst" was not originally part of the "Lionheart Society," but was reorganized and acquired by Chu Zihang.

In a sense, the current "Blood Burst" is first and foremost Chu Zihang's skill, and only secondarily belongs to the "Lionheart Society," so Chu Zihang is naturally capable of teaching others.

In the original story, he later passed on "Blood Burst" to Caesar.

This means that he has the opportunity to gain benefits from both of the two major gangs.

The only one who might get hurt in this situation is Caesar, but let him suffer a bit, since the Gattuso family is very wealthy anyway.

"Lin Zhiying is very happy that you have joined the student council."

Accepting the notebook meant agreeing to join, and Caesar excitedly grasped Lin Zhiying's hand. From now on, he was a member of the student council.

-

This is not simply a matter of the "Student Council" recruiting an S-class freshman; it is a move that weakens the "Lionheart Society" in advance.

"So you've joined? Are there any ceremonies or anything like that?"

Lin Zhiying asked with some curiosity.

He remembered that the original work mentioned that joining the student council required a tradition of stripping naked and running naked on the winding mountain road on campus.

"No, but if you want, I can make it for you."

Caesar spoke with a sincere expression, and Lin Zhiying felt that even if he asked for 9999 roses, Caesar would get them for him.

No, that's not what I meant.

Lin Zhiying immediately denied it upon thinking about that scene.

"You mean the one who was streaking?"

Caesar was taken aback by what he heard, but quickly recovered and spoke up.

"That's just an urban legend in the college. The student council doesn't have that many strange rules. We're a legitimate organization, different from other fraternities."

The fraternities he was referring to are secret organizations within many universities, among which the more famous one is the "Skull and Bones Society," which is similar to a secret society within a student group and often has some strange initiation rituals.

Lin Zhiying was about to say something when his phone suddenly rang. "Excuse me, I need to take this call."

Then he discovered that the same ringtone was also coming from Caesar's phone, and similar sounds could be heard throughout the Norton building.

Walking on campus, Lu Mingfei, who had just contacted the "Lionheart Society" to explain his intention to join them, and Fingel, who was with him, also received phone calls at the same time.

Clearly, this call wasn't made to any one person, but rather to certain individuals based on lineage or influence.

But in any case, this means that something big has happened in the academy.

Library, main control room.

This place is nominally the location of the hardware for the "Norma" supercomputer at "Kassel College," but in reality, it only contains some unimportant parts and mostly library-related equipment.

The classroom was now crowded with people. Lin Zhiying glanced around and noticed that none of the NPCs present had a bloodline lower than A-level. The Lionheart Society members stood on the left, and the Student Council members stood on the right. The distance between them was almost enough for a cargo ship to pass through, clearly separating them.

Lin Zhiying was the center of attention from the moment he entered the classroom; his performance in previous activities had been truly outstanding.

It's hard not to attract attention once you've done that.

Without hesitation, he walked to the side representing the "student council," and several sighs and cheers echoed in the room.

All eyes were on him, so much so that no one paid attention except him. Lu Mingfei silently walked to the side of the "Lionheart Society" group.

"Cough cough."

With a few soft coughs, Angers walked out from a side door. He was as radiant as ever, looking much more energetic than many of them.

His gaze lingered briefly on Lin Zhiying and Lu Mingfei before he finally sat down on the podium.

"Please sit down, everyone. Don't be so formal. This isn't a classroom."

Angers said with a smile that even his classes are very relaxed, which is why his classes are very popular in the academy.

Everyone relaxed, realizing it wasn't a serious matter.

Lin Zhiying then noticed that "One Cut to Cut Water" and "Blue Dream Sky" were also at the very back of the crowd, along with some familiar and unfamiliar faces. However, he guessed that they were probably other guild leaders or representatives from the game.

"What we are here to talk about today is the resurgence of the dragon race."

As Angers spoke, a corresponding video and animation appeared on the whiteboard behind him.

China, the Three Gorges.

A red dot spreads outwards, accompanied by fluctuations.

Everyone here has taken the relevant courses, so they naturally know what this means. Without a doubt, there are dragons active here.

Lin Zhiying looked at this scene with some doubt. Something was wrong. Even in her previous life, the revival of dragons didn't happen this quickly.

In the normal version, the "King of Bronze and Fire" dungeon should not be unlocked until the mid-game.

And it shouldn't be here either.

Could it be that my rebirth was so significant that all of these things were brought forward?

Just like the previous version was updated ahead of schedule, Lin Zhiying thought.

Just as he was thinking, a voice suddenly rang in his mind.

If it were someone else, they might think it was a ghost, but Lin Zhiying found the voice somewhat familiar.

The voice wasn't playful or seductive; it was crisp and clear.

"Servant, it's been so long! How's school life going?"

"Have you missed me?"

The voice was undoubtedly Xia Mi's, but why, by such a coincidence, at this moment, did she contact him? Lin Zhiying felt something was wrong.

"How is it? Your Majesty, you've finally finished eating and your hibernation is over."

Xia Mi had previously devoured "Odin's" "Gungnir" and taken away a portion of its "authority." He hadn't contacted Xia Mi before, presumably because he was secretly digesting it somewhere.

This is quite in line with her cautious personality.

"well enough."

Xia Mi replied.

For some reason, Lin Zhiying felt that Xia Mi seemed to lack confidence when she spoke. In the past, Xia Mi would usually say some witty remarks from time to time, but now she was frighteningly quiet.

"Something unusual is bound to happen," Lin Zhiying thought, so he cut to the chase and said, "Your Majesty, what a coincidence! You've come to see me now, could it be that you've gotten yourself into some trouble?"

"My strength has indeed increased considerably."

-

Xia Mi began to change the subject.

Faced with Lin Zhiying's persistent questioning, he had no choice but to admit, "Okay, okay, there is a little trouble. I'm currently trapped, and I heard that Kassel College will be sending people over soon."

"How could you, a Dragon King, be controlled?" Lin Zhiying wanted to accuse her, but it was clear that the second half of her sentence was the key point.

Is Kassel College sending someone?

Lin Zhiying looked around. The scene before him looked like a mobilization meeting, and a bad feeling welled up in his heart.

"Tell me more specifically, where are you trapped here?"

"Sichuan region, the Three Gorges."

After a moment of silence, Xia Mi rattled off a few words like popping beans.

Lin Zhiying looked at the large screen in front of him. The location of the Three Gorges was now deliberately marked in red by Angers. The principal said, "We have joined forces with the Executive Department and sealed off that area."

In order to avoid the influence of reality, the game still features a map and the Three Gorges Dam, but now it exists as an independent entity, just a super-large reservoir.

In the game, such entities can be built as many as desired.

"The dragon-like creature that the principal was talking about killing earlier, could it be you?"

"Hmm—it seems that's indeed the case at the moment."

Xia Mi said timidly.

What do you mean by "seems like"? Do you know how serious the problem is?

"The school has detected your data and is organizing people to take you out."

Er Zhiying thought this guy was really a bit oblivious.

"Hehe, it's good that you, the undercover agent, are here."

Xia Mi felt a surge of relief.

He marveled at the brilliance of his son, Zhiying, as an undercover agent; otherwise, he wouldn't have even known he was caught in a trap.

The question is, why would Xia Mi go to Shu for no reason?

------

"Aren't you going to explain, Your Majesty?"

Er Zhiying asked.

Upon hearing this question, Xia Mi paused noticeably for a moment before answering, "Wasn't this mercury something we obtained from Odin that needed to be digested? It just so happened that it was summer vacation at the time, so I looked for a relatively safe place to collect it."

"A safe place? How did you end up there? Didn't you know there were dragon remains up there?"

Er Zhiying said that as a member of the same clan, he did not believe that Xia Mi could not sense it.

"I know, but what's that saying again? The most dangerous place is the safest place. If I absorb it there, even if there are fluctuations, no one will suspect me."

Xia Mi's tone was full of pride, and Er Zhiying could almost see her looking smug.

That's true, and that's generally how it is. The problem is, Haoser Academy has already investigated that area.

Now, the past has exacerbated this fluctuation, leading people to mistakenly believe that the dragons in the Three Gorges are about to revive. However, this has backfired, causing them to get themselves into trouble.

"I have an idea."

Xia Mi seemed to have thought of something, and her tone softened as she spoke.

"Why don't you find a way to bring your team over, and then you can quietly release me?"

Xia Mi said calmly.

"At that time, I will also welcome you and guide you to get rid of the dragons among them."

Xia Mi spoke of being a "dragon traitor" so naturally without the slightest sense of guilt.
