The platinum blonde hair felt incredibly nice to the touch, like washed silk, with a slight warmth—the kind of feeling you just want to pet without stopping.

Lu Mingfei felt really embarrassed after touching it twice, so he had no choice but to put the hat back on her.

They returned to Lisa Illusion's White House late at night, having spent a considerable amount of time strolling along the long street.

Lu Mingfei tossed and turned in bed.

He didn't know why he was asking for change, as if he was convinced she would help him.

If I could just stay here and spend my whole life with Zero, that would be perfect...

But why do I feel like something is missing?

Nono? What does she have to do with me?

He clearly knew that being attracted to Nono was different from liking or admiring her; he also liked Zero very much, but the feeling was different.

When he looked at Nono, he had a strange feeling, as if she were an inseparable part of him…

So he didn't feel guilty towards Zero, because he really didn't like anyone else, although he didn't understand how he felt about Nono either.

"Caesar! I've had enough! I'm going to have some fun! I'm never going back to that lousy women's virtue academy!"

Caesar picked up Nono from the airport, just as Xia Mu had expected.

Caesar looked at his fiancée's furious, witch-like appearance and couldn't help but burst into loud laughter, pulling her tightly into his arms.

"Hey! What are you doing!" Nono was flustered.

Caesar gently ruffled her red hair and said softly, "It's been a long time since I've seen you like this. To be honest, I don't like you going to that academy either. If you don't want to go, then don't go. No one can stop me, Caesar, from marrying the person I want to marry."

Nuonuo stared blankly at him, and suddenly felt that the golden cage that was binding her had been removed, and she could fly out freely again.

"Are you really okay?" she couldn't help but ask.

Caesar's expression was both handsome and resolute: "It's alright."

The two returned to Kassel College together.

They had all already graduated, but this day was special because Caesar would be representing the Gattuso family at the meeting... Ever since the last attack, Frost had been intentionally getting him involved in more family affairs, preparing him to one day hand them over completely.

Caesar didn't know what it would be like if he really became a member of the school board, or if he would have to give up many of his principles and youthful idealism because of the responsibility.

But at least for this moment, he was still the man who would pamper Nuonuo.

Just then, the bell in Valhalla rang out loudly, the sound reverberating throughout the entire campus.

Caesar and Nono both looked toward Valhalla at the same time, their expressions changing.

That's... an alarm signaling the Dragon King's invasion!

In the Executive Department, the central control room, Caesar led Nono through the door and entered.

Here, Nono once again met Abdullah Abbas, the former president of the Lionheart Society from her "memory".

After meeting Chu Zihang, Nuonuo couldn't help but feel a little strange and wary when she saw his expression, but now was not the time to say anything.

Bidige

Professor Schneider raised his hand to signal them to be quiet, and the four of them stood shoulder to shoulder, looking up at the huge Earth projection.

That is the Earth as seen by the Heavenly Eye, day after day, year after year. The Executive Department uses this projection to monitor the activities of dragons around the world.

Whenever a certain point lights up red, Eva projects herself out, explains the situation, offers a solution, and then the executive team is mobilized.

But this time Eva didn't offer any countermeasures. The projected girl, along with Caesar and the others, silently watched the enormous Earth projection—the entire Arctic Ocean flashing a terrifying red light.

"What is this?" Caesar asked, trying to keep his tone calm.

The warning area covers the entire Arctic Ocean. Could it be that the Dragon King has occupied that icy sea area of ​​tens of millions of square kilometers?

“It’s not that bad, but we still can’t pinpoint its exact location, so the entire Arctic Ocean is marked in red,” Schneider said hoarsely.

"What kind of goal?" Abbas asked.

“No one saw it, but when a team of explorers was measuring the temperature, the giant whale swam past them in the icy sea,” Eva said slowly. “They heard a strange sound, a sound that had all the characteristics of a whale song, yet it could summon extreme cold.”

“Words of power sung in the song of whales!” Abbas whispered.

Silence fell over the central control room. It sounded unbelievable, but there was no theory that other languages ​​couldn't be used for the power of words.

Ultimately, the power of words is something akin to a spell, consisting of a series of mysterious syllables.

"So our enemy is a whale?" Caesar broke the silence.

"It cannot be said for sure, but there is indeed a whale-like creature that the Secret Society has been observing for thousands of years. In Hebrew mythology, it is called..."

Schneider paused here before revealing that chilling name.

"Leviathan!"

Chapter 368 Arrival at the Arctic Ocean

"Master, according to current intelligence, submarines from three parties have entered the Arctic Ocean region. Henkel and Gattuso are nuclear submarines, while we are the only conventionally powered submarine."

Xia Mu sat comfortably in the submarine's command cabin.

The "Taigei" submarine belongs to the Soryu-class submarines, with a displacement of 3300 tons, a length of 84 meters, a maximum width of 9.1 meters, and a crew of approximately 70 people.

Since the Snake Clan's power expanded dramatically this year, they have been continuously infiltrating the military within the country. They are no longer in a situation where only Ryoma Genichiro could command an air force squadron.

If Xia Mu wanted to, he could even stage an armed coup, since there were already mixed-race members of the Snake Clan among the military, who could easily occupy various mid-level positions. Now that the higher-ups could use both money and underworld methods, it would be quite normal for them to successfully control most of the military.

"Are these guys scrambling to collect the dragon bones? Do they really think the King of the Ocean and Water is like those two idiots from before, someone they can just bully?" Xia Mu scoffed.

"You're going to die! You're alluding to me again!"

Xia Mi went crazy.

Xia Mu chuckled.

"Further intelligence indicates that Kassel College has purchased a nuclear-powered icebreaker, and a team led by Caesar Gattuso, Abdullah Abbas, and Chen Motong is heading to slay the dragon."

The captain is a middle-aged man of mixed blood, a member of the Snake Clan who has been infiltrating the military for a long time.

He still looked somewhat unnatural, clearly excited to have played such a hidden role alongside the patriarch for so many years.

"Oh, I see."

Looking at the radar reconnaissance footage, Xia Mu said calmly, "Slaying the dragon is none of your business. Your task is simply to keep an eye on the other two nuclear submarines."

The captain paused for a moment, then couldn't help but retort, "Sir, this submarine is at an internationally advanced level, and its weapons can handle many underwater combat scenarios..."

Xia Mu waved his hand, and he obediently shut up.

"That is the king of the ocean and water. He is the king in the sea, and the seawater will be his best weapon. In other words, the underwater world is the opponent's home ground."

Xia Mu shook his head.

"What is the military's view on this submarine patrol in the Arctic Ocean?" he asked, changing the subject.

The captain respectfully said, "At first we were worried that it would arouse the vigilance of other countries, but later news came that two other submarines had entered the Arctic Ocean, and with some war rumors, there were no objections from above."

"This is essentially a large-scale exercise and a show of force, so of course they support it; they just don't know this time it's for real..."

Xia Mu smiled. "But the real war is coming soon, so it's good to let the whole world be mentally prepared."

The captain was somewhat bewildered, but the absolute obedience of the Snake Clan prevented him from asking any further questions.

"Xia Mu, try not to fight Leviathan underwater, otherwise even if you fuse the dual kingships, it won't be easy," Xia Mi reminded her.

Xia Mu nodded silently: "I know."

After a while, Xia Mi's eyes were filled with confusion and complexity: "I'm actually very concerned about what Chu Zihang said... about cloning the Dragon King. If it's really created, who knows what will happen in the end..."

"Aren't they supposed to be dealing with the Black King? Let's hide in the back and watch, and wait for them to fight to the death first," Xia Mu said.

Xia Mi shook her head: "They are different. With thousands of years of planning and concealment, no one can know what the other's trump card is. Perhaps all variables have already been calculated. You will have no choice but to get involved, and it is impossible to remain a bystander."

Xia Mu was silent for a while: "You're right. Erii's disappearance may not only be aimed at the newborn White King, but also at me, making it impossible for me to stay out of it."

"Yeah, many things can't be rushed, but there really isn't much time left..." Xia Mi's voice was a little unsteady. "Good luck... Xia Mu..."

Three days later.

"Sir, radar has detected that nuclear-powered icebreaker one kilometer ahead of us," the captain reported.

Xia Mu opened her eyes, which had been closed as if resting: "I understand."

"That is…"

The captain's breathing quickened. "Master, something... has surrounded that icebreaker!"

Looking at the radar, Xia Mu could only see the winding, twisting shadow of Mohu surrounding the icebreaker.

“A giant snake? It might be a subspecies of dragon,” Xia Mu said calmly. “The submarine will surface and release me.”

"Master, should we... reconsider fighting these dragon subspecies that are tens of meters long underwater?"

The captain was somewhat worried.

Because this is underwater, if you get entangled by a giant snake, you might not even have time to get back to the ice surface to breathe.

"It's nothing."

Xia Mu didn't even wear a diving suit. Instead, his clothes transformed into black scales that covered him. Once the submarine reached its destination, he jumped directly into the water.

In the command center, the captain and first mate stared at the radar image, watching the dark shape swim away in the water as if taking a leisurely stroll.

Is it over?

Nono looked at the large snake corpse on the ground with lingering resentment.

She had never seen such a large snake before, more than 20 meters long, its thick body leaving deep scratches as it passed over the boat.

Its appearance is also very different from that of ordinary snakes. It has protruding facial bones, rugged patterns, and traces of limbs remaining on its body. It is similar to some ancient pythons that have not fully evolved, but even the largest Titanoboa is a small snake compared to them.

“No, it’s not over yet,” Caesar said in a low voice. “Many, huge groups.”

Nono suddenly quieted down, as still as a puppet.

Caesar pulled out one of his Desert Eagles and handed it to her, while holding Dick Tudor in his hand.

The puppet-like silence meant that Nono was getting serious.
