As for Lilith, she is the king of succubi, and according to legend, she can drain the strongest man overnight. In Jewish folklore, she is considered to be the first wife of Adam, the human ancestor of the Old Testament. God created her and Adam at the same time with the same soil. She left the Garden of Eden because she was dissatisfied with Adam, and later became a female demon who seduced humans and strangled babies.
Lu Mingze stuck out his tongue and suddenly looked out the window.
Lu Mingfei also looked over and was immediately stunned.
"Yes, yes, brother, we were supposed to attend the funeral. The old king is dead. Aren't you going to pay your respects?" Lu Mingze was solemn, but there was a smile on his lips. However, the little devil looked more like a young emperor at this time.
Funeral...?
Lu Mingfei straightened his collar expressionlessly. He knew that since Lu Mingze said he was going to attend a funeral, there must be a funeral waiting for him somewhere, but whose funeral was it?
He didn't know, he had no impression, and he had no idea what to do. He just remembered that there were so many dandelions flying outside the window that it seemed like it was snowing, but the snow season was over in Illinois.
Lu Mingze came up behind him, put on the same black suit and white tie for him, and the two walked out of Norton Hall side by side. The campus was filled with candles under the night sky.
Lu Mingfei and Lu Mingze stood up at the same time because of the sound of girls singing outside. Lu Mingfei looked out and saw a group of young girls wearing nun's clothes and holding Bibles and wearing shield-shaped school badges.
“Life flows like the wind, and the world is indestructible like a rock;
My dear, you are leaving us now, drifting away with the wind, your holy soul will be gently comforted on the shoulders of the Lord..."
Those girls were probably the choir invited by the church, because the church of Kassel College only had a part-time pastor all year round, and that pastor was Professor Mance, and there was no such thing as a choir.
They sang this song over and over again in the depths of the fog, their voices as ethereal as a bird separated from its flock.
Yes, when did the fog appear?
Lu Mingfei didn't know it, but Lu Mingze suddenly grabbed his hand. The little devil raised his head and smiled sweetly. He didn't say anything, but just pushed open the door of the principal's office and walked along the solemn path to the church. Along the way, the girls' singing accompanied them and followed them. Although it was melodious, it made Lu Mingfei feel a little cold in his spine, as if he was being stared at by the lonely souls wandering in the cemetery.
Finally they reached the church.
It was not the chapel of Kassel College at all, but a huge building with a strong late Perpendicular Gothic style, more like St. Mary's Church, the main church of Cambridge University.
The church was also full of candles, candlelight like mountains and seas. These were probably the most candles Lu Mingfei had ever seen in his life. Those burning small pillars stood in every corner or on the ground, like clusters of thorns, with faint flames burning at the ends of the thorns, clustered together like a brilliant galaxy.
Candlelight surrounded Lu Mingfei and Lu Mingze. At this time, an organ from somewhere began to play low mass music.
Lu Mingfei finally saw it. The cross-shaped coffin was lying flat in the candlelight. The coffin was made of black steel, and a hideous copper lock was hung on the gap. It didn't look like a funeral at all, but a ceremony to seal the devil!
The little devil suddenly let go of Lu Mingfei. He laughed, but tears welled up from his eyes. He prostrated himself on the coffin, feeling its warmth and stroking its edges, watching the slender white wax around him slowly turn into wax and condense on the dark red carpet.
"It's been a long time since we last met, my dear servant. When we meet again, you will be dead." He said softly, his voice low and slow, like a prayer for the deceased, or a death sentence for his enemy.
Lu Mingfei suddenly felt sad for no apparent reason. He reached out to wipe the corners of his eyes, but felt a slight dampness.
How could it be, how could it be, why am I so sad, who on earth was this funeral held for? That servant, he must have been really good to Lu Mingze, loyal to him forever, waiting for him for a thousand years without changing.
But he is dead.
It was so quiet. Lu Mingfei slowly raised his head, his eyes illuminated by the candlelight so brightly, as if a huge torch was lit in his pupils. He saw a pattern of the Virgin Mary holding the Son of God on the mosaic glass window under the dome several dozen meters high.
The sky was dark, the pattern lit by the bonfire outside.
At this time, a pastor came onto the stage and began to recite a eulogy in a low voice, but Lu Mingfei suddenly had a splitting headache, because he seemed to have heard the voice of this pastor before, in a very distant dream, or perhaps in a hallucination. He tried hard to prick up his ears to listen, and tried hard to open his eyes wide to see. The pastor's face gradually became clear, and his voice became light and graceful.
She is Yu, the second generation who embraced him in the sea, rain and wind.
Her expression was sad, and her eyes were a dull golden color. She chanted, "From dust you are, to dust you shall return. May the love of the Lord be with you forever, in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit..."
Lu Mingfei looked at Lu Mingze blankly. He suddenly realized that there were people standing around him. Those people lowered their heads. The little devil also lowered his eyes like everyone else, showing a mourning look.
When the priest finished reading the eulogy, everyone looked up. Their faces could not be seen clearly, but the depths of their eyes were dotted with bright gold.
Lu Mingfei wondered, could it be that demons also mourn?
It turns out that the devil also has... a heart?
The pastor then hammered the last nail into the coffin and said, "Amen."
The organ suddenly changed its tune, and the sadness on people's faces disappeared. The girl named Yu took off her priest's clothes and put on clothes like the Pope. Everyone held hands and sang at this time. Lu Mingfei had heard the tune of that song, it was "God Save Our Emperor Franz", but the lyrics were in very ancient classical Chinese.
“May God bless our emperor and may your virtue flourish.
The country will have a long life and great fortune.
The empire is eternal and everything is glorious.
The Lord of all peoples has no boundaries to his country.
Only talent can be promoted, only sincerity can be corrected.
Admired by all the people, his virtue spreads across the sky.
......"
At this moment, the atmosphere in the church suddenly relaxed, and those sad guests all smiled, but the atmosphere was still solemn. Lu Mingfei couldn't help but be a little surprised. He also knew that according to Christian teachings, when a person dies, only the soul goes to heaven, where relatives and friends will eventually reunite.
But this song doesn't sound like something that would be sung at a funeral. It sounds like...
"The new king ascends the throne." Lu Mingze said to Lu Mingfei, "This is the norm in the world of the dragon clan. The death of the old king means the rise of the new king, and people will no longer be sad for the passing of the old king."
The guests were crowded together, and suddenly they parted a path. That path was a dark red carpet with black war horses painted on it.
A young man came out. He was so majestic and yet so kind. He was wearing a gorgeous and elegant imperial robe and walked towards the coffin step by step.
In the silent church, in the candlelight that was as big as a sea, everyone stepped back, leaving only the young man facing the coffin alone.
There was also Lu Mingfei, who was also standing on the road, but the young man walked around him and continued towards the iron coffin.
Lying there was a former emperor whom he did not recognize.
Sadness emerged from Lu Mingfei's heart like a nameless root and sprouted.
"Goodbye, my servant." He said softly, and then walked out along the dark red carpet. He didn't even know why he said this.
When he walked out of the candlelight, Lu Mingfei suddenly turned around. He looked at the young man who was stepping on the coffin towards the throne that appeared high up. The young man also looked back at this time, and the two people's eyes met at this moment.
Lu Mingfei was stunned.
He knows that person.
He had seen him at the headmaster's desk; he was the young Hilbert Jean Angers.
"Brother, go forward. You will soon be stepping on that thorny road. The horn of Ragnarok will sound, and the old kings will have to lay down their crowns to welcome the new king." Lu Mingze said softly to Lu Mingfei, "You have made your decision, haven't you? Make everything about the Black Supreme known to the public, and bring the war of the end of everything to the world. No gods or kings can sit still. There are many eyes watching you on both sides of the long river of fate."
Lu Mingfei's eyes widened. He was still thinking about what Lu Mingze said. Everything around him was spinning. Lu Mingze was still smiling. He waved at Lu Mingfei, and then he saluted in a proper manner towards Angers who was standing on the coffin in the church and looking at them.
The dream was shattered.
-----------------
"Mingfei, you are still very weak. It's best not to run around at this time. If you need anything, tell Norma." Angé was not surprised or angry that Lu Mingfei touched his tea and cigars. Even in the first semester of the first year, Lu Mingfei and Angé had met in the principal's office more than once.
There was even a mean old guy on the Night Watch forum who swore that Lu Mingfei must be Ange's illegitimate son. But later it was confirmed that this person was the vice-president who had been living in the bell tower.
Senior students at Kassel Academy - such as Finkel von Frings, who shared the same dormitory with Lu Mingfei - had always known that the vice-president had ambitions to get rid of Ange and take the throne himself. It wasn't that Mr. Flamel, who had a high reputation in the mixed-race society, intended to get involved in the position of leader of Ange's secret party. In the final analysis, it was just that the Night Watchman's despicable idea of holding a swimsuit competition in the academy every year had been rejected by President Ange for thirteen consecutive years. For this reason, the vice-president often sighed and lamented that the old man Ange was ungrateful, and threatened that sooner or later he would take off the first word of the vice-president's title.
Lu Mingfei knew that the night watchman was almost from the same generation as Ange. Principal Ange was still energetic and his soul was as young as that of an energetic young man. The vice principal was a little bit hard to describe. Although his energy and dirty thoughts in some aspects were indeed as young as that of a middle-aged hero with excess energy, he was obviously not comparable to Principal Ange in terms of eating habits and daily routine.
I think judging from the vice-principal's age and performance, he will never be able to become a principal in his lifetime.
Lu Mingfei hesitated whether to tell Ange what he wanted to tell him, but the little devil's words seemed to still echo in his ears. He looked at Xia Mi, who was sitting upright and acting rather unnatural, and then looked at the photos of the first generation of Lionheart Club members on the table. The first ray of sunlight in the morning finally fell on his face, and Lu Mingfei took a deep breath.
"It's Henkel. Mr. Henkel invited me to work with the armed forces of the North American hybrids to participate in a mission to capture the fallen hybrids." Lu Mingfei said softly.
He is no longer an indecisive person. This is what a man should be like when he grows up. No matter whether you are ready to grab a sword and rush to the battlefield to die on the border, or take your wife and children and pack your bags and run away, no matter how important the decision is, you should make the decision after you finish smoking the cigarette in your hand.
In fact, the little devil has always been quite reliable. Lu Mingfei has never suffered any loss at the hands of Lu Mingze, and he still decided to trust Lu Mingze this time.
Although Ange remained silent on the surface, he was relieved in his heart. He was also a little worried that the best S-class student in history would keep harping on what happened that day, so he immediately showed interest.
After inheriting the throne of the first of the four monarchs after the Black King and the White King, the world he saw was different, but he still hated the dragon clan, even more than ever before.
Ange even had a premonition that even in his current state he could not pose a threat to Lu Mingfei. That premonition made his heart palpitate from the bottom of his soul. Even though he had only a vague understanding of the child's origins, he could not eliminate this feeling of palpitation.
"The location of the mission is in Rio de Janeiro, the capital of Mexico. A criminal group engaged in gray industries and led by a degenerate half-blood has long been lurking in the slums there. The industries they are engaged in include arms dealing, illegal drug trade and human trafficking, and the most serious of these is undoubtedly human trafficking." Lu Mingfei said slowly.
The boar Neo was an important breakthrough point for Herzog. Originally, he was planning to use this person to pull the power of the academy into his camp against the entire Japanese Snake Eight Families and the Demon Clan.
After learning about the existence of the boar Neo from Han Gao, Lu Mingfei also asked Nuonuo whether she had heard of this name during the period she experienced in the air. Nuonuo thought about it carefully at the time and actually gave an affirmative answer.
According to Nono, in the previous period of time, the influence of Boar Neo was very large, almost covering the black and white worlds of Mexico, from the Rio de Janeiro City Government to the thieves in the slums, almost all of them were favored by him. After the Tokyo incident, the college searched for the information left by Herzog and integrated various clues. In the correspondence between Herzog and Boar Neo, Herzog called the latter "Hercules", a name belonging to Hercules in Greek mythology. The college came to a conclusion that the board of directors believed that the poor student who was expelled from the college had at least some characteristics similar to Herzog.
However, Nuo Nuo was not at the scene at that time and had no chance to participate in the mission, so he didn't know much about the details of the mission. He only knew that Lu Mingfei personally killed the boar Neo, and the latter was marked as an A+ high-risk target in the subsequent mission report issued by the academy.
That was a guy who could probably fight against the normal Chu Zihang, and he maintained a very close relationship with Herzog. This could be a breakthrough point for Lu Mingfei. If he could subdue the violent boar silently without alerting Herzog, he could directly break into the core of the doctor's conspiracy.
"A degenerate half-blood who traffics in human beings, his behavior has undoubtedly violated the solemn Abrahamic Bloodline Pact, which has challenged the bottom line of the academy. Any of your actions will be permitted, and the academy will send an execution team to assist you throughout the process." Ange thought this was not a big deal. Every year, many half-bloods who violated the Abrahamic Bloodline Pact were secretly executed. If Lu Mingfei just decided to participate in this operation, no one would have any reason to stop him with his authority.
"Please listen to me, Principal." Lu Mingfei refilled his teacup with water, leaned against the desk, and looked up into Angers' eyes. This made him look even weaker and more tired, as if he would faint at any time.
In fact, he is not as bad as he appears.
But showing weakness at the right time is not a bad thing, especially at this moment, the principal's face in Lu Mingfei's eyes is sometimes like a kind old man, and sometimes like a majestic king who is about to ascend the throne stepping on an iron cross coffin.
"The fallen hybrid is called Boar Neo by the locals. He has a long-term cooperative relationship with a big shot in the Japanese underworld. He searches for naturally awakened wild hybrids throughout South America and New Mexico in the United States, and smuggles these people to Japan. Over the past few years, no less than two hundred hybrids have been trafficked to Japan through Boar Neo's channels. Some of them were even women who were about to give birth. After being sent to Japan, these people eventually disappeared and could never be found again in this world." Lu Mingfei's voice was faint.
Ange's expression turned serious.
He understood Lu Mingfei's hint.
“They can no longer be found in this world”, what does this mean?
death.
So it was human experimentation? Or some ancient forbidden ritual?
Angé's eyes were as sharp as swords, and his right index finger tapped lightly on the table. A ray of ancient silver light flashed in the corner of Lu Mingfei's eyes. It was a very ancient ring.
"I will go with you on that mission," he said.
Chapter 124 Japanese Branch
The Dragon Blood Society is an emerging fraternity with a large number of members. They select the elites from among the elites. Although many of their members are freshmen of this year, following in Lu Mingfei's footsteps, they already have the courage to proudly stand in front of the Student Union and the Lionheart Society to declare their sovereignty.
Because the winner of this Free Day was the Dragon Blood Society, and this victory also earned them the right to use Norton Hall.
This is a very unforgettable building. Its shape seems to be a replica of the Cologne Cathedral in Germany, and each corner tower looks like a sharp sword rising from the ground.
It is definitely one of the most core venues in the entire academy. Perhaps the only ones that can rival it are Valhalla and Watalheim deep underground.
Since the founding of the school, the Lionheart Society has occupied this majestic building until a few years ago when Caesar Gattuso joined the school and the student union rose to prominence and took away this honor from the old fraternity.
But today this honor belongs to Lu Mingfei.
His body was still exhausted, but with the help of the Word Spirit. Redemption and the academy's excellent medical department's treatment plan, his injuries, which were enough to kill an ordinary person dozens of times, had completely healed.
