A voice came from behind them, which immediately caught Lu Mingfei and Angers' attention.
Herzog?
Xia Mi and Chu Zihang, carrying Herzog, arrived at the center of the Red Well, her excitement evident on her face.
Angers and the system also looked at the person Chu Zihang was carrying.
Just as the two were about to ask, Xia Mi suddenly said, "Huh? What's this? Why does this worm look a bit strange?"
She bent down and picked up a worm that she had been stepping on. The worm was wriggling wildly, like an earthworm being lifted up.
It was stealthily approaching Erii's body, just a hair's breadth away... just a hair's breadth away, that perfect body, just a pierce through her skin, and it could burrow inside and nurture the true body of the White King... But then Natsumi rushed over and stomped it under her foot, its dream seemingly shattered completely...
This is an incredibly deformed worm, with a huge single eye, a pen-shaped bony body, and a pointed tail.
Its body is transparent, and you can see its internal organs directly.
It was incredibly ugly, but the dark golden pupil in its single eye revealed its extraordinary nature. Even if it was truly just a parasite, it was still a dragon-born parasite...
"This is……"
"This is……"
The system and Angers looked at the parasite, their tone immediately becoming surprised and uncertain.
They had some vague guesses, but couldn't be sure. However, when they saw where Xia Mi had caught it, the system's expression changed!
Could this worm be the remains of the White King? It hid inside the corpse of the Yamata no Orochi, waiting until Lu Mingfei dealt with Erii and the two of them discussed interrogation with Genji before secretly emerging from the Yamata no Orochi's body.
If it manages to burrow into Erii's body and complete its parasitism...
The system's analysis made Lu Mingfei break out in a cold sweat, but fortunately Xia Mi arrived in time and stepped on it.
Word of Power: Heaven and Earth as a Furnace! Word of Power: Sword Control!
With a thought, the system immediately caused metal to rise from the ground, then conjured a metal cage out of thin air, and then applied an alchemical matrix to it.
Upon witnessing this scene, Chu Zihang's pupils constricted slightly, and his heart was filled with turmoil.
This smelting... it looks a bit like Panpan's Heaven and Earth Furnace? But Panpan's Samadhi Fire doesn't seem capable of making metal float like this, does it? Is this another kind of power of words? Is it sword control?
Lu Mingfei... he succeeded?! ??
He hadn't really paid much attention to Xia Mi's words earlier, but now he suddenly felt that Xia Mi was absolutely right!
The White King's remains, struggling desperately in Xia Mi's hands, were locked in a metal cage. It banged against the metal cage with all its might, making clanging sounds, but to no avail.
Xia Mi exchanged a glance with Lu Mingfei, then tucked the cage under her armpit and hugged it tightly.
Because people from Kassel College started to come in one after another...
Herzog, Genji, and Erii Uesugi were still lying on the ground, but the system was analyzing who would be the right person to hand this thing over to.
Su Enxi and the others?
Although President Su helped Lu Mingfei rake in tens or hundreds of billions of US dollars on this trip, and also provided him with a great deal of assistance.
But billions of dollars and all this help don't buy that much trust... That's the remains of the White King! It contains the power left behind by the White King! That's something money can't buy!
After much thought, the system felt it was best to keep this thing with it at all times.
“Lu Mingfei, that should be…” Angers also ruthlessly abandoned Genjiro, Uesugi Erii, and Herzog, trying to discuss the matter of that worm.
"Principal, there's no need to say such hurtful things."
The system waved its hand without hesitation and said, "Don't you trust my determination, Principal? Kassel College is a mixed bag; it's really not as suitable for you to handle as it is for me."
Angers' lips twitched. It would be a lie to say he trusted it. If he didn't kill the thing on the spot, who could he trust in the face of the White King's power?
But then again, right now, the one with the biggest fist in the room is Lu Mingfei. If the other party isn't willing, he really can't take this thing.
Although Lu Mingfei and Erii fought quite hard and his wounds haven't completely healed, he's definitely stronger than Angers, who's almost burned out.
If Lu Mingfei hadn't healed him in time with the Dragon King's Blood Crystal, he would probably be on the verge of retirement by the end of this trip.
He was indeed long-lived, but he wasn't invincible. Was Uesugi Kozuki's bloodline much weaker than his? At a hundred years old, he was still waiting to die.
Even if one doesn't become a dragon, one can never escape the limitations of human lifespan...
People from Kassel College are rushing over, and the number of living people in the center of the Red Well is gradually increasing.
Xia Mi hugged the cage and moved closer to Lu Mingfei, trying to find some sense of security. At the same time, she looked around furtively, as if everyone looked like a robber or bandit.
"What happened to him?" the system asked Xia Mi about Herzog's situation.
"Oh, I dislocated his shoulder," Xia Mi said. "But I'm very skilled, so don't worry, I didn't hurt him much. Do you want to restore his mobility, or is it enough for him to just talk?"
"Just let him talk."
"it is good."
Xia Mi stretched out her foot and kicked Herzog's face twice. With two slaps, Herzog felt his dislocated jaw return to normal, and he was finally able to speak normally again.
However, the first thing he could say was, "It parasitizes the host and then filters the fetal blood..."
"Snapped!"
Angers immediately activated Time Zero, aiming to kill Herzog, who was spouting nonsense, on the spot with a speed that almost no one could react to.
However, this extremely abrupt activation meant that the dragon blood did not fully unleash its power.
The system followed up with a kick that sent Angers flying, clearly anticipating Angers' possible move.
[...To parasitize the White King's remains onto a perfect host, using Erii's body as an incubator, filtering out the toxicity of the fetal blood, and then transferring the filtered-out fetal blood to oneself?...]
The system immediately filled in Herzog's words during the analysis, and then it had murderous intent towards the biology PhD, but then it quickly suppressed its murderous intent.
[...Herzog's clapper sound has an unknown effect on the host. This problem must be solved, or at least it must be figured out...]
[...Angers might kill Herzog!...]
The second analysis involves the host, Lu Mingfei. With protecting the host as the top priority, the system did not hesitate to kick Angers from behind, sending him away.
Herzog cannot die now! The secret of the White King's remains may not be revealed, and even if it is, it may not be a problem, because the White King's remains are still in his hands.
However, the problem of Lu Mingfei and that strange clapper sound must be dealt with.
The system kicked Herzog in the mouth, stopping him from rambling on.
This sudden change left everyone present somewhat bewildered. The students from Kassel College even subconsciously adopted fighting stances, facing Xia Mi, Chu Zihang, and Lu Mingfei.
Chu Zihang and Xia Mi immediately assumed a fighting stance, warily watching the people from Kassel College around them.
"Kaka..."
The system looked at Angers, who had been kicked in the butt, and then used its foot to break Herzog's jaw.
Angers turned around and met the system's cold gaze.
There were too many people around, so he didn't want to be too clear. He could only vaguely say, "His life is of no benefit to anyone. He will only leave behind hidden dangers and harm."
"I need to know at least how he controlled Erii with the sound of the clapper."
The system didn't want to mention that Lu Mingfei was also affected, so it could only use Erii, who was also affected by the clapper sound, as an excuse.
Angers subconsciously looked at Erii, who was lying on the ground and had begun to gradually withdraw from her dragon-bone state.
No, are you really concerned about Erii? She's practically dying, isn't she?
Angers immediately warned, "Eri has forcibly exited her dragon form. This is a sign that she is running out of energy. If she is not treated soon, her life will soon come to an end."
Upon hearing this, the system looked at Erii, who had almost been forgotten due to repeated changes.
Her white scales began to fall off, and her magnificent body, supported by her dragon bones, was also shrinking... Xia Mi took off her clothes and draped them over Erii's body, but the clothes were a little small.
Without hesitation, the system sent the remaining half of the dragon blood crystal into Erii's body.
As the dragon blood crystals melted, Erii's exhausted body greedily absorbed the pure dragon blood, like a parched desert drawing water from a dry desert, injecting some vitality back into her body.
Some metal fragments pierced Erii's body, followed by large pieces of iron flying up and being twisted into an iron garment in the air, enveloping Erii.
After dealing with Erii's matter, the system turned its attention to Angers.
The atmosphere inside the Red Well became tense and tense, while people from the Kassel College continued to pour in.
After considering the situation, Angers said, "This isn't the place to chat. Let's find somewhere else, bring our things, and talk slowly. I'll have someone clean up this place first."
"it is good."
The system nodded, agreeing to his suggestion, and with a wave of its hand, the iron box containing Erii rose up.
"Have someone come in and clean up this mess," Angers instructed his men, then said to Fingel, "Fingel, you carry Genjiro."
But while Fingel was happily running off to carry people, Chu Zihang, who was carrying Herzog, enthusiastically carried Origin Maiden as well, one on each side.
"No need, I can carry it."
Carrying two people on his back, Chu Zihang quickly caught up with Lu Mingfei's pace.
Chapter 163 Dragon King Experience Card
The small house was a bit cramped, since we had brought a large metal box, and there wasn't enough room for five people to stand.
"Fingal, what are you doing following me?" Angers looked at the student with some surprise.
“Although Chu Zihang carried the person, it was still hard on me, after all, I was so worried about the principal…” Fingel said, but Angers waved his hand and said, “Go out.”
Chu Zihang and Xia Mi also went out, leaving the two of them alone.
Angers cut to the chase: "To be honest, there's only one point of contention: I don't trust anyone who has the White King's remains. I must grind him to dust. I don't care about Herzog or Erii; you can do whatever you want with them."
If the board members of Kassel College knew this was being discussed now, they would probably immediately demand that he suspend negotiations. Whether it's the White King's relic, which has the potential to inherit the White King's power, or Herzog, they probably want them both.
So this negotiation wasn't conducted like the one in Angers.
The White King's remains are definitely dead in Angers' hands. We can only study the body to see if there are any discoveries. As for Herzog... his methods of controlling people are far less useful than mass-producing emperors through in vitro fertilization.
After all, if they could mass-produce an army of royal blood to slay dragons together, perhaps Angers wouldn't object? But with the White King's Relic as a precedent, Angers could only suppress Herzog's matter.
"If I take the White King's remains, does that mean I'm making an enemy of you?" The system certainly wouldn't agree immediately.
The White King's Sacred Remains, which inherited the power of the White King, are so weak and easy to control. If we can make something out of it, slaying dragons will be a piece of cake.
“I don’t know yet, but I don’t want to gamble,” Angers said. “It’s better for this thing to be completely dead. Holding onto it will only make it a hot potato. Maybe before our Kassel College board meeting is over, a dragon will come looking for you.”
As he spoke, he subconsciously reached for his watch on his wrist, only to discover that the multi-million dollar antique watch had been lost during the battle.
