Dragon Tribe: Still Thinking Until Now

There was a vague suspicion in his mind that he was unwilling to admit. Lu Mingfei stood at the door with a frown and looked inside. At this time, a still very bright incandescent lamp was lit with a crackling sound at the angle between the wall and the ceiling just above the door frame.

"Old Chu didn't have many personal belongings, and his son took some away. I guess it's hard for you, Manager Zhang, to find anything meaningful to take back." The middle-aged man sighed, "How could such a good person just disappear like that?"

Lu Mingfei was stunned for a moment before he realized that Manager Zhang was talking about him. He was no longer called Lu Mingfei but Zhang Facai, and the princess was no longer called Ling but Jiang Ling. Eiry was Zhang Facai's sister. According to the aesthetic taste of the parents who could come up with this name, she should be called a country name like Zhang Cuihua.

He was too weak to complain, so he could only hold his forehead and say, "Can I take a look inside..."

"Of course, I'll wait for you by the stairs to smoke a cigarette. Smoking was not allowed downstairs before, and who knows if there is still a risk of explosion now..." The middle-aged man also looked relieved.

The door was closed behind Lu Mingfei, but he suddenly realized that all the capillaries in his body were contracting. At the moment the door closed, it was like winter was coming, and a sense of crisis like a thorn in the back filled the space.

Lu Mingfei quietly activated the dragon bone state. His five senses were strengthened to the limit of a hybrid as his blood burst was activated. He could hear all the sounds in this building and even those near it.

There was no sound of rain or thunder, only the wind and the banging of the rusty iron door against each other.

He breathed a sigh of relief. This city might be the foundation that Odin used to build the Nibelung, but even here a medium was needed to connect the Nibelung with reality. Water was the most suitable gate from the land of the dead to the land of the living.

The absence of rain meant that the gods were not coming to bring the Nibelung.

Could it be that this was a decapitation master who could put himself into stealth mode? Similar words were not uncommon, as ghosts, time zero, and dark light could all do it.

If they are really the beheaders, it means that the academy has already obtained their movements and has locked onto the city. Lu Mingfei's subsequent actions will be subject to many unnecessary obstacles.

It is difficult to say which situation is worse, facing the secret party or facing Odin, but now that things are finally showing some signs of progress, Lu Mingfei has no intention of backing down from here.

He paced cautiously in the closed room that was only covered with a layer of cement, the lust in his sleeves ready to slip into his hands at any time, while carefully observing the surrounding environment.

Unexpectedly, the room was quite clean. Apart from a slight smell of dust, the air was actually fresher than the corridor outside.

A double bed was placed against the wall opposite the door. A thick layer of dust fell on the gray-white coverlet. A second-hand mahogany wardrobe with peeling paint stood in a corner of the room. One of its corners was broken off and it was propped up by two bricks, making one side higher than the other. In the other corner was an old-fashioned double-door refrigerator. The Haier Brothers logo could be vaguely seen on the refrigerator. In addition, there were densely packed sticky notes on it, one stacked on top of the other, like fallen leaves brushed off on it.

There were very few things and it was not messy. There was not even any extra garbage like instant noodle buckets or cigarette boxes. The bedding in one corner of the double bed was neatly folded, and the pillow with the pillowcase removed was placed on top of the bedding.

Lu Mingfei circled around the bed.

As soon as he walked into the room, he felt something was wrong. Although it was clean, it was too clean and did not look like someone lived there.

Although Chu Zihang had visited here before, his senior brother was so rigorous that he probably wouldn't mess with the layout of the room. He might even specifically instruct the office director not to touch anything inside.

Chu Zihang is the kind of person who holds his breath.

Things that he cannot do now will definitely be left for later completion. The truth that he cannot find out now will definitely be revealed clearly even if it takes him five or ten years.

He used to think that his father was an irresponsible guy. He married his mother and gave birth to him, but he had no ambition, did not save much money, and abandoned his wife and children to others. But the night he met Odin on the elevated road, Chu Tianjiao completely overturned his image in Chu Zihang's mind.

After that night, the image of his father became taller and more majestic in Chu Zihang's eyes. A mysterious aura shrouded Chu Tianjiao and what he did.

Maybe this man carried a long knife with him every day, waiting for the coming of death, so he might have left some clues in this room, but Chu Zihang couldn't find them at that time. Based on this speculation, Chu Zihang would definitely not destroy the layout of this room.

Lu Mingfei sat down on the double bed that once belonged to Chu Tianjiao. His fingers slowly stroked every corner of the mattress, as if he wanted to know the body shape and height of the man who once slept on it.

The mattress that appears in such a place is obviously not a high-quality product. If a person lies on it for years, the springs will inevitably wear out. From this, it is easy to judge how heavy and tall the person who has slept here is.

But just a few seconds later, Lu Mingfei's face immediately turned gloomy.

Logically speaking, everyone has their own habits when sleeping, either lying on their side or lying flat, or sleeping in a certain area of ​​the bed, so this inexpensive mattress should have a dent.

But it seemed to be no different from when it was first bought, except that Lu Mingfei felt slight dents at the very edges of both sides of the mattress. It didn't look like someone had slept there, but rather like marks left by fingers pressing hard.

He stood up slowly and gazed down at the double bed.

No wonder as soon as I walked into this room I felt it didn't look like it had ever been lived in. Even the most careful person wouldn't leave even a little bit of garbage behind.

This is basically an empty room.

Chu Tianjiao may have been here, but he has never lived here.

The clue seemed to end here. Lu Mingfei sighed, turned around, opened the door and prepared to leave, but when his hand grasped the door handle, his whole body suddenly shook violently.

Wait, there seems to be some detail that he overlooked.

It was indeed extremely clean here. There wasn't even a speck of rat droppings to be found, nor were there any traces of bats. But in the same building, any other room would have evidence of rat infestation after being left without human habitation.

Something was stopping them from getting close to here.

Dragon blood. Any creature on earth is afraid of dragon blood, just like goats are afraid of tigers.

Lu Mingfei locked the door from the inside, then returned to the double bed and placed his hands on the marks on the mattress he had just found.

With a little force, this simple bed with a steel frame structure was completely lifted up.

Below is a cement floor that is no different from the surrounding area.

But a smile appeared on Lu Mingfei's face.

Lust slid into his palm and he tapped the tile with the handle of the knife.

A hollow sound came from beneath the concrete floor.

It is empty indeed.

There is a secret room down here.

"If I were you, I wouldn't break in. That guy left a lot of traps in his lair." A girl's voice sounded behind him.

The next moment, a cold light flashed in his face. Lu Mingfei grabbed a button, pulled it off, and extinguished the incandescent lamp. Then, a strip of cloth wrapped in lust fell to the ground, and the short arc knife made a sharp hissing sound in the narrow space.

"Please spare my life!" The girl lowered her voice and quickly retreated.

"who are you?"

"I'm your senior sister!"

In the darkness, Lu Mingfei's pupils were as flickering as will-o'-the-wisp, but he just couldn't touch the guy who suddenly appeared behind him.

"Bullshit! My senior sister isn't as sneaky as you!" He growled, "Get out!"

The power of the King of Earth and Mountains was activated, and the concrete ground undulated like waves, immediately shaking out the girl hiding in the shadows.

Lu Mingfei grabbed her neck and used the blade of the knife to reflect the pupil light to illuminate the girl's cheek.

He saw who was coming at a glance, shuddered all over, and loosened his fingers as if he had been electrocuted.

"Senior sister? Are you a human or a ghost?!" Lu Mingfei was stunned.

Chapter 458 The Girl Returning from the Lost Ice Sea

The incandescent lamp that was smashed by Lu Mingfei with a button was the only lighting tool in the room. Now it was pitch dark here, and only the flashlight function of the mobile phone could allow the two people crowded at the entrance of the tunnel to see each other's expressions clearly.

Lu Mingfei's heart was in his throat, goose bumps appeared all over his body, and he showed no intention of loosening his grip on the lustful object.

The person who appeared in front of him was indeed a senior student, who was well-known in Kassel Academy. But the problem was that she had been confirmed dead in the Greenland Ice Sea Operation many years ago.

That girl is...Eva Genesis.

At Cassell College, she is known by another name, Norma, or EVA.

Lu Mingfei was definitely the man who had seen the most of the world, but even in this situation, a chill still ran down his spine, his cheeks were clenched, and all the muscles in his body were tense like a marble statue with thousands of carvings.

Even in the worldview of the dragon race, once a fragile creature like humans dies, they lose the slim hope of returning again, because the human spirit cannot leave their brain. Once a person's brain cells die from lack of oxygen, his spirit will also collapse in this world.

EVA was confirmed dead without a doubt, and Lu Mingfei had even paid tribute to her coffin in Valhalla. But this girl now appeared beside him in such an incredible way, and even her appearance was no different from many years ago.

If she had just faked her death to escape the surveillance of a certain existence ten years ago, then her age should be almost the same as Finkel's, but that loser now looks like an uncle, while EVA has eyes as clear as water.

Once, she walked out of the 3D projector in a light blue lace pajamas, looking at Lu Mingfei quietly with her chin in her hand like a curious cat. At that time, Lu Mingfei was still a little poor boy who was fished out of the screening room by the red-haired little witch. He felt a little happy and shy when being stared at by such a charming girl. EVA laughed so hard that her body was shaking with laughter, and said to him, "Junior brother, don't have any bad thoughts. I have all the URL access records of your browser in my hand. You don't want your XP to be posted on the Night Watchman forum for Nono to see, right?"

At that time, President Lu was a well-known figure in the academy. The first thing he did after entering the school gate was to defeat Caesar and Chu Zihang in a day of freedom. He finally got rid of the title of loser that had followed him for three years. So he could only look around with red faces and almost kneeled down to beg EVA not to send out the URL access records. How would he survive if those things saw people?

But at the same time, he was thinking that his senior sister was really pitiful, sleeping forever in the icy sea of ​​polar night at an age when she was in her prime.

Senior EVA's status in her time was equivalent to that of Nono or Susie today. She was the most outstanding girl in her class. She was also so beautiful that she could make Finkel, a vicious dog with a head full of pornographic clips, unable to walk. Compared with Chen Wenwen, who was once stunningly beautiful in Lu Mingfei's eyes, she was truly an all-round crusher. It's even more shameful to say that this guy has also fantasized in the deepest part of his heart about some plots that would make Finkel bite him to death if he knew about it.

But now this girl was standing in front of him in a black long skirt, looking as slender and graceful as a willow in the wind, and Lu Mingfei just felt horrified again.

"What are you? A ghost?" Lu Mingfei tightly gripped the short arc knife, always keeping a safe position with the girl in front of him.

As the Bronze City development project was digested, the secret party had already reached a peak in its understanding of dragons that no one had ever reached before. However, the more they understood dragons, the more they could use words and natural science to verify the reality and truth of this world, and finally they were convinced that the world was always materialistic rather than idealistic.

Although the dragon's cocooning rebirth is still a topic that needs to be tackled, the academic community has generally reached a consensus that it is almost certain that the so-called transfer of the soul to a new embryo for rebirth is actually extracting the dragon's unique spiritual elements from the original body and injecting them into the new body.

It is not quite accurate to say that it is reborn. The dragon's cocooning is actually closer to the process in Chinese Taoist mythology where the gods in heaven have to come to the mortal world for some reason to gain experience and eventually return to heaven to serve. For example, according to folklore, Xu Shilin, the son of Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian, is the Wenquxing who came down to earth and finally returned to the stars after completing his tribulations.

These gods who came down to earth to experience trials and tribulations separated their spirits from their powerful bodies and injected them into another weak body. When their spirits fully adapted to the new bodies, their memories and strength would be restored, which was almost exactly the same as Xia Mi's situation.

From this, the so-called soul has a concrete explanation. From the perspective of the science of words and spirits, humans should not have such a thing as a soul, because even for the most determined hybrids, the spiritual elements in their bodies are like messy sea sands all over the body, and cannot be gathered into something like a dragon's core.

Thus, ghosts, which had appeared in the myths of every civilization around the world, were determined not to exist.

Compared to the phantom that appears after a person dies and where spiritual elements briefly gather and remain in the human world, the research team and experts of the secret party prefer to believe that the so-called ghosts are actually the appearance of certain hybrids or dragons using words witnessed by ancient humans.

In ancient times when natural philosophy was completely suppressed by theology and religion, human beings could not look at everything they saw that was beyond their understanding with an eye of seeking truth. Instead, they were more inclined to attribute all incomprehensible things to demons and monsters.

If it weren't for the appearance of the little devil Lu Mingze, Lu Mingfei would definitely be one of the most staunch materialists - of course, Lu Mingfei still had some guesses about Lu Mingze's identity in his heart. He always believed that the so-called devil was nothing more than a bewitching dragon king, and all those incredible miracles that happened to Lu Mingfei under Lu Mingze's manipulation were nothing more than the Dragon King's means.

In short, although Lu Mingfei showed great fear and seemed to be more defensive when facing the girl who looked like EVA.Laurence, he was actually looking for the opponent's flaws.

Or to get some breakthrough from this girl.

Even if she wasn't an EVA senior, a hybrid like her who could follow him and Eri silently was definitely not an ordinary character.

At least we need to know where she comes from, who she represents, what her purpose is, or what the purpose of the person behind her is.

"She's not a ghost, she's a senior, a real senior." EVA shook her head, her round eyes reflecting Lu Mingfei's facial features.

The flashlight on the cell phone flashed twice and suddenly went out. Lu Mingfei's face changed drastically in the darkness. He remembered that he had fully charged his cell phone before going out.

"The small powerful electromagnetic pulse transmitter developed by Watt Alheim in 01 has not been put into use so far, because the energy required to activate the tool is extremely huge, which is a difficult problem to overcome even for the Equipment Department." EVA said, she stretched out her hand and pressed on the concrete floor that was uneven and even messy due to the release of the Mountain King's authority.

A faint flame jumped and lit up between the fingers of the girl's other hand. It was a ball of extremely hot orange-yellow flame, the light of the flame was much brighter and softer than that of a flashlight.

Only then was Lu Mingfei able to take a closer look at the bright and beautiful face that was so close to him.

At a certain moment, this guy's heart suddenly thumped violently.

The glow of the flames scattered everywhere, and Lu Mingfei was finally able to confirm that the girl in front of him was not an illusory ghost, but a real girl. She had smooth skin like white porcelain, wore a black dress, and had fluorescent blue hair. She was just as beautiful as the girl who had walked in the diffraction grating of the 3D projection.

"The equipment department of the academy only recorded the production and operation of this equipment once. It was shipped from Chicago to a city in southern China in 04." EVA smiled brightly, moved forward, took Lu Mingfei's hand and poked her cheek.

It does have a soft and solid texture, as if it is poking Eri's face.

"As for the evidence, the equipment department's research and development records are no secret to the vast majority of people in the academy. Not only the board of directors, but even tenured professors can easily access these files stored in the database." Lu Mingfei narrowed his eyes but did not relax his vigilance.

Looking at the way the girl in front of him was playing with fire, it seemed that her ability was similar to Chu Zihang's Jun Yan, whose bloodline could be traced back to the Bronze and Fire King, a highly lethal combat spirit.

It’s a pity that when I was in college, I never thought of looking up the detailed information of the parties involved in the Greenland Ice Sea incident many years ago, otherwise Lu Mingfei would know how old EVA was before her death.
