Dragon Raja: Lu Mingfei's Bullet Screen Wish Machine

"I know... it must be the dragon pattern on the brass pot."

Nono took a deep breath and composed herself:

"For dragonborn, staring at dragon runes for too long can easily lead to resonance, which in turn can cause them to see various illusions and affect their emotions."

However, she soon noticed something else.

Why did you take off your wetsuit?

Nono shone her flashlight on Lu Mingfei's chest.

"I just saw the wind chimes under the eaves moving."

Lu Mingfei is very shrewd:

"The wind chimes are moving, which means the air is flowing. Norton is, after all, the Dragon King, so the ventilation system in Bronze City must be pretty good. Taking off the diving suit will save some oxygen."

Nono was stunned.

Before Operation Kuimen began, Kassel had already conducted a reconnaissance mission from the outside.

The underwater bronze city of the Three Gorges is in a dormant state and has no material exchange with the outside world.

"Senior sister, senior sister?"

Lu Mingfei tentatively called her name twice.

"No, no!"

Nono snapped out of her daze and quickly ran back to the bedroom where she had started. She turned the flashlight up to its maximum and shone it on the ceiling.

It was an ordinary-looking metal plate, with nothing unusual about it.

Noticing Lu Mingfei's questioning look, Nuonuo hesitated for a moment before speaking:

"This place should have been a piece of active regenerated metal that formed a passageway through which we could reach Norton's bedroom, but now it's gone."

In other words, the Bronze City is functioning, which is why you can breathe fresh air... But that's impossible; it hasn't had an owner for thousands of years!

Lu Mingfei's pupils contracted, and he immediately thought of a movie he had seen before called "Cule".

Inside the massive mechanical structure, countless cubes are constantly moving, blocking old paths and creating new ones; a single wrong step can trigger a deadly trap.

"Isn't the very fact that we're here problematic?"

Lu Mingfei was not flustered but rather thoughtful:

"We came in through the main gate, and the first thing we saw was Norton's bedroom. Surely the Bronze and Fire Lord wouldn't be this open-minded?"

"Someone activated the Bronze City and deliberately led us to its core."

Nono frowned in thought:

"It can't be Kassel, and the Zhou and Chen families wouldn't be like that... Wait, Lin Fenglong!"

A thought flashed through her mind:

"A hundred years ago, a guy used Lin Fenglong to send a sleeping dragon king to the Kassel Manor, which led to the Summer Mourning Incident and the annihilation of the Secret Party's elite forces."

Lin Fenglong is just an ordinary mixed-race person, but you sent him to the ship today. His master behind him has probably found out about this.

It's very likely that the other side followed his trail and discovered our actions.

"The plan to capture Lin Fenglong was very meticulous, and no information was leaked before the Mingyuan arrived."

Lu Mingfei said, "If this can be discovered..."

"Dragon King, Alchemy."

Nono said:

"The Dragon Kings' research on alchemy far surpasses that of the hybrids. It is very likely that Lin Fenglong had already been branded or marked by them. After Lin Fenglong's accident, the Dragon Kings turned their attention here."

"Dragons of the same rank can devour each other to achieve their own evolution, and perhaps the Dragon King is the same."

Nono pointed to the brass pot:

"I suspect his real purpose is to make us take the egg so he can then steal it from us."

However, what the mastermind didn't expect was that his brother Norton had already awakened.

It wasn't unexpected... Lu Mingfei's heart sank slightly.

Nono had no idea that Constantine was sleeping inside the brass jar.

The Dragon King who orchestrated this was probably after the little dragon.

"If he wants the dragon cocoon, why doesn't he come and get it himself?"

Lu Mingfei raised a new question.

"It's probably some kind of path dependency."

Nono analyzed:

"A hundred years ago, he used Lin Fenglong to severely damage the Secret Party without bloodshed. The benefits he gained as the mastermind were much greater than if he had been involved himself."

Nono herself found it unbelievable when she said those words.

In many ancient texts, the Dragon King is portrayed as a proud and powerful being who would rather die standing than live kneeling, and who disdains to play tricks and schemes.

Unexpectedly, the Dragon King has become corrupted; even today, he has learned to play dirty tricks in human society.

Lin Fenglong was taken aboard the Mingyuan around 10 a.m., and they didn't go into the water until 10 p.m.

A full twelve hours is enough for the mastermind to set up the scheme.

"Junior brother, we have to go."

Nono already has a plan:

"Don't touch this jar. It's empty inside, so there's no point in carrying it. It might even attract the Dragon King's attention."

Norton's residence should be located in the very heart of Bronze City, where there must be a proper road leading to the outside world.

"Look around for recycled metal, but Bronze City is currently in motion, and the roads are constantly changing... Junior brother, you might have to pay a price this time."

Lu Mingfei nodded, indicating that it wasn't a big problem.

Bronze City is the work of Norton, the supreme master of alchemy and the King of Bronze and Fire.

It could be considered his residence, or it could be considered the large tomb he built to bury the dragon cocoon.

Its internal mechanisms are extremely ingenious. Before it was put into operation, it was just an ordinary dragon tomb. By smearing blood with high purity dragon bloodline on the entrance, one could enter and exit normally.

However, once it starts operating, its internal passages will undergo various changes; some will close, and some will connect. They will definitely have to pass through more than one portal later.

After watching Lu Mingfei slay the dragon, Nono was quite certain that her junior brother had a high level of dragon blood, enough to open the portal to the regenerated metal.

The two left the room one after the other.

Lu Mingfei fell slightly behind, flipped his palm, and a blue snail shell appeared in his hand.

With his back to the dragon egg, he used his silk magic to remotely capture Constantine's cocoon.

With a tremor of the shell, the brass can transformed into a streak of light and was pocketed by Lu Mingfei.

Nono's words made a lot of sense, but Lu Mingfei had no intention of listening to her.

According to the wishing machine, the Great Snail Cave is the remains of a demon snail, and its interior is a self-contained world, completely isolated from external perception.

Yes, actually it's not just dragon cocoons.

Before leaving, Lu Mingfei glanced at Norton's room.

Through the window, it was pitch black inside, and you couldn't see anything clearly.

While Nono was taking pictures of Constantine, Lu Mingfei, having already come all this way, went to Norton's house.

He packed up all the pots, pans, and cabinets inside and took them with him.

If Norton ever gets foolish enough to come knocking on our door, we might consider locking him up too.

Norton must be very moved to see these familiar belongings.
