Although the "Supreme's" offer was very tempting, Angers remained unmoved, keeping his eyes down.

"The 'Black King's Egg' is now in our hands! Although we cannot completely destroy it, we have ways to prevent it from reviving! So... the offer you've made isn't very tempting to me!"

"Heh, Angers, you're too naive!" The Supreme One revealed a mocking smile. "Do you really think that the noble Black Emperor would only leave behind a 'cocoon' as a backup plan for resurrection?"

206 A Memorial Service in the Rain

"Of course not! As far as I know, He left at least three 'cocoons' in this world! What you have now is only one of them. The other two are most likely hidden somewhere in the world and are still in a dormant state."

"But the revival of those two 'cocoons' is only a matter of time! Unless Angers wants to face a Black King in his prime many years from now, you will definitely agree to my request!"

“You really know me well… Your Majesty!” Angers suddenly smiled and gently extended his hand to His Majesty.

"Then I wish us a pleasant cooperation!"

"It's a pleasure to cooperate!" The Supreme also smiled and extended his hand to shake hands with Angers.

……

The following afternoon, at Kassel College, Valhalla.

The Valhalla building was severely damaged in yesterday's explosion, but after emergency repairs by the school's public works department, the damaged Valhalla is now basically able to serve as the auditorium.

A light drizzle fell in the mountains outside Chicago, the overcast weather and misty rain adding a touch of solemnity to the solemn memorial service.

Angers, dressed in black, stood on the high platform in front of Valhalla.

That used to be the site of the statue of Odin, but the statue was destroyed, so the school's public works department built a platform on the original site to serve as Angers's lecture venue.

Angers' aged but sharp eyes surveyed the surroundings. Below the platform, the crowd of people attending the memorial service was densely packed.

Everyone was dressed in a black suit and held a black umbrella. Hundreds of men in black stood silently in the misty rain, creating a unique sense of solemnity.

"Gentlemen..." After a long silence, Angers on the platform finally spoke: "I believe everyone is very clear about the basic situation! Two days ago, a noble first-generation being invaded Kassel College!"

"During this invasion by the Dragon King, we sacrificed many of our compatriots! Professor Blair Binat, 'King Solomon,' who had been conducting research in the underground research institute for a long time, and the rest of the personnel present chose to sacrifice themselves in their final moments!"

"They activated the self-destruct device in the underground research institute... The executive department's specialists once assessed that even a Dragon King wouldn't survive an explosion of that magnitude! But what I'm about to say is that the Dragon King didn't die!"

Angers paused, "However, given that it is currently the time for a memorial service, let's discuss the Dragon King's matter later..."

……

Angers' impassioned speech lasted for half an hour. During the speech, Angers concealed the fact that the Dragon King had come to steal the "Black King's Egg". However, the effect of the speech was not bad!

Under Angers' influence, every mixed-race person who came to the memorial service had a desire for revenge on their face, and their pupils shone with a dazzling gold!

A gloomy sky, a light drizzle, a black funeral, and... countless pairs of eyes gleaming with gold, together create a bizarre yet magnificent scene.

……

"Finally, everyone, please observe three minutes of silence for the fallen heroes. They deserve to be treated with such respect!"

Angers lowered his head silently on the platform, as did the others below.

Three minutes later, the moment of silence ended.

According to the usual procedure of a memorial service, after the moment of silence, the memorial service is considered to be completely over, and guests may leave on their own.

But at this moment, the hundreds of enraged dragon slayers showed no sign of leaving!

They looked up, their gazes fixed on Angers, each of them with a captivating golden light gleaming in their pupils.

The same is true of Angers, who stood on the high platform!

Angers, dressed in a black suit, tossed aside his umbrella and then waved his hand: "Angry dragon slayers, let us act! Find the Dragon King and unleash your fury! What is our goal? What is our noblest pursuit in life?"

"Extinguish the hope of the dragon race's revival!" Hundreds of dragon slayers shouted in unison.

"Very well, we will carry on the legacy of the tenured professors and completely extinguish any hope of the dragon race's revival! Let's begin formulating an action plan!"

"The school's public works department and logistics department are in charge of logistical supplies. Remember to prepare storm torpedoes and high-density nitrate depth charges for that esteemed Dragon King!"

"The executive department is responsible for heading to the Greenland Sea region where the Dragon King is located to conduct preliminary reconnaissance of the Greenland Sea environment. Remember not to act rashly, lest you alert him! Don't doubt me, I guarantee with the reputation of the principal of Kassel College that the Dragon King is currently in the Greenland Sea region!"

"As for the team members participating in the dragon-slaying mission... you can rest assured, I will send out the ace team from Kassel College..."

……

Angers meticulously assigned all tasks to various departments, and a group of enraged dragon slayers quickly sprang into action.

The massive machine that is Kassel College has officially begun operating.

The day we set out to slay the dragon shouldn't be too far off!

Two hours later, in the principal's office at Kassel College.

Angers, with his gray hair, was working on documents at his antique mahogany table, which he had bought from China. In front of him was a steaming cup of Earl Grey tea, its delicate fruity aroma filling the air.

The atmosphere was quiet and serene.

"Knock knock knock..." A knocking sound came from outside the door, breaking the peaceful atmosphere.

"Please come in!" Angers said without even looking up.

"Squeak..."

The door made a sickeningly soft thud as Schneider, the head of the executive department, slowly wheeled himself into the principal's office.

"May I ask what brings you here, Professor Schneider?" Angers put down his pen and leaned back in his executive chair. "If I'm not mistaken, Professor Schneider should be selecting the executive officers to carry out a mission in the Greenland Sea right now!"

Schneider did not respond to Angers' question. His iron-gray pupils revealed indifference, and his eyes, which flashed with a sharp and cold light, were fixed on Angers.

“Principal Angers, stop beating around the bush! I’m here just to ask you a question!” Schneider’s voice, as loud as a broken bellows, echoed in the principal’s office.

"Is the dragon king that attacked the underground research institute this time the same one my team encountered in the Greenland Sea back then?"

“That’s a really sharp question!” Angers stood up from his chair and poured Schneider a cup of black tea as well.

He rubbed his temples, looking a bit annoyed. "Professor Schneider, I didn't want to tell you this, because it will make you angry! Excessive anger will only cloud your judgment!"

"But now... since you've already guessed it, I'll tell you the truth! That dragon king is indeed the one that revived ten years ago beneath the Greenland Sea."

207 Su Xiaoyan and Xia Mi

“I know very well that the Dragon King destroyed your most promising student and also turned you into this wretched state! I once had a similar experience to yours, and the sense of powerlessness and anger I felt was unforgettable!”

"But I still hope you can control your anger and maintain your usual composure! You must believe in Chu Zihang and the others' abilities; the ace team from Kassel College will definitely not let us down!"

Schneider fell silent!

After a long while, the dragon slayer, as strong as steel, finally exhaled a long breath, and the gold gleaming in his pupils gradually faded away.

"Principal Angers, thank you so much for answering my questions that have puzzled me for so many years! I have other matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving now!"

Schneider regained his usual indifference, gently rocking his wheelchair as he left the principal's office.

Just before he was about to leave, Angers called out to him from behind.

"Schneider, you and I are actually very similar! We both carry the burden of a blood feud... But promise me, don't let hatred blind you!"

"That heartbreaking tragedy ten years ago wasn't your fault! No one could have predicted that a dragon king would be sleeping beneath the Greenland Sea!"

At the office door, Schneider's withered hands, which were pushing the wheelchair, paused almost imperceptibly.

For the first time, a ripple appeared in his indifferent, iron-gray eyes!

However, Schneider concealed his emotions very well. As if he had not heard what Angers said, he wheeled himself straight into the depths of the academy.

"Ugh……"

Angers stared at Schneider's departing figure for a long time, all his unspoken words turning into a long sigh.

Both he and Schneider were burdened with a blood feud, and their ultimate goal in life was to exterminate the entire dragon race!

However, it is clear that Schneider was not as calm as Angers.

Because Schneider knew very well that he, infected by the blood of the ancient dragon, didn't have much time left, and he wanted to avenge his student before he died!

……

Two days later, the elite teams scattered around the world returned to Kassel College aboard the principal's private jet.

When Lu Mingfei stepped onto the college grounds again, after being "away" from Kassel College for more than a week, he was so surprised that he was speechless.

The kid rubbed his eyes, his face full of disbelief: "What happened to the academy? Was there an earthquake?"

"You idiot! Didn't you read the mission briefing Professor Schneider sent before you went back to the academy?" Caesar gave Lu Mingfei a sharp tap on the head with practiced ease.

Standing to the side, Fingel skillfully chimed in on their conversation: "Useless junior brother, let your senior brother tell you! Four days ago, Kassel College was invaded by the Dragon King!"

"The tenured professors of the underground research institute activated their self-destruct devices, sacrificing their lives to severely injure the Dragon King who had invaded the academy! However, the severely wounded Dragon King escaped to the Greenland Sea region, so..."

"So now it's our turn to slay the dragon?" Lu Mingfei's eyes widened. "Why is it always us? Even the landlords of the old society weren't as good at exploiting people as Principal Angers!"

"Who told us to be the ace team? There's an old Chinese saying, 'The capable are always rewarded,' right? We are the capable ones!" Fingel snapped his fingers, his tone full of narcissism.

"By the way, where did Junior Brother with the expressionless face go? We haven't seen him for so long!" Fingel said.

"You mean Chu Zihang!" Caesar scoffed. "That guy's still in China, all lovey-dovey with his girlfriend! Don't worry about him, he'll probably take the next flight! Knowing his personality, he definitely won't miss our dragon-slaying mission!"

At the same time, in Huaxia, at Chu Zihang's home.

Xia Mi was sitting on the sofa with Chu Zihang's mother, Su Xiaoyan. The two were chatting with smiles on their faces, showing no signs of a mother-in-law/daughter-in-law conflict.

Although Su Xiaoyan is over forty, she is very well-maintained. Her pretty face, which once captivated countless men, is still stunning. Even when sitting next to the perfect Xia Mi, she is only slightly inferior.

The two sitting together don't look like mother-in-law and daughter-in-law; they look more like a pair of beautiful sisters!

Su Xiaoyan sat with her daughter-in-law, chatting quietly about Chu Zihang's embarrassing moments while letting out silvery laughter.

The cheerful laughter of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law contrasted sharply with that of Chu Zihang, who was sitting on the other sofa.

At this moment, the expressionless senior brother was maintaining his expressionless face as always.

Even now, Chu Zihang still doesn't understand why things have developed to this point!

Since arriving in China, Xia Mi has been living in a hotel in the city, and Chu Zihang has spent most of his time living with Xia Mi, occasionally returning "home" to visit his mother.

This situation continued until three hours ago!
