The conference hall of Nuo University suddenly became silent. The old people wearing black bowler hats exchanged glances in private, but no one dared to stand up and raise objections in person.
"Then what should we do? We can't just let this threat go unchecked, right?" After a long silence, a voice finally broke the calm.
Conor stood up on crutches and looked at Angers without hesitation. He was the one who knelt down to the head of the Zhengtong family just now, and now he is the one who proposed to punish Zhengtong.
Conor also doesn’t hide his duplicitous and cunning character.
"We really need to guard against orthodoxy, otherwise we will be like the head of the Conal family, who will be beheaded at some point." The white-haired old man at the head stared at Conal, his words slightly sarcastic.
But the other party obviously will not be offended by such words. He only asked this question for the secret party, and it was a question that most of the senators were concerned with.
The existence of orthodoxy is extremely threatening to the secret party. They are as uncontrollable as a nuclear bomb that can explode at any time.
"I guarantee with my personality and life that if you don't touch the heirs of Orthodoxy, Orthodoxy will never be an enemy of the secret party." At the round table meeting, Angers' words were enough to move all the elders.
How dare he make such a guarantee for possible future enemies? If it weren't for Angers seniority and clear background, the senators here would almost think that he was an undercover agent placed in the secret party.
"Now, our task is to slay the dragon. The four monarchs are already in the process of awakening. According to the Mayan prophecies, December 21, 2012 will be the end of the world and the end of the fifth 'Solar Era'." Before Conard could continue to speak, the topic that Angers was involved in had already firmly grasped the hearts of the secret party elders.
"According to archaeological records, the first four world eras were destroyed by earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, and hurricanes, which were caused by the awakening of the four dragon monarchs of earth, fire, wind, and water."
"I believe none of you want to see the destruction of the fifth era." Angers stretched out his hand to push the frame of the mirror, and the elders below began to whisper among themselves.
Although they have lived long enough, they are even tired of this world. But no one wants the world to be destroyed and buried under the blazing flames swallowed by the Dragon King.
Conor's face had turned livid at this moment, and looking at the expressions of the elders, one could tell that they were shaken in their hearts.
Compared with the consequences of the world's destruction caused by the resurrection of dragons, the threat that orthodoxy may pose is greatly weakened.
However, this meeting was clearly held by him using precious family tokens. However, Ange deceived him into taking control with just a few words.
Frost below also underestimated Angers' influence. It can be said that as long as he is still alive, the Gattuso family's control over the secret party will always be restricted.
But they need Angers to serve as the principal of Cassel College and help the mixed race survive the greatest crisis in history.
"Principal Ange, we believe in your character, and we are also aware of the dangers of the dragon monarch's awakening." Finally, someone among the elders below spoke.
Wearing a wide black hood, he sat completely in the shadows. He didn't move even during the orthodox attack just now, as if he was walking out of the darkness.
"Mr. Beowulf!" All the elders who saw the man showed respect and bowed neatly.
This is an ancient and prominent surname in the mixed race world. The Beowulf family has always been a firm, cold and powerful dragon slayer. For thousands of years, countless dragons have died under their swords.
Just like the cruel ceremony of screening healthy babies in ancient Sparta, if the child has congenital disabilities or trembles under the cold water baptism, they will throw the unqualified child into the Apotei Canyon at the foot of Mount Taygetos. , leaving them to fend for themselves.
Their family adheres to the oldest family motto. Newly born babies are fed a drop of highly poisonous dragon blood. Babies who cannot bear the pain will die painfully in their father's arms, but those who survive are the bravest and strongest. warrior.
Most of the people in the Beowulf family have fiery personalities, and wielding a battle ax to break through the dragon's chest inlaid with tough scales is as terrifying as a god or demon.
Their favorite thing is to soak the dragon's blood in wine and drink heavily after slaying the dragon. This is a poisonous attraction to them.
Therefore, they were dubbed by members of the secret party as
The title of "Bloodthirsty Dragons" not only praises their strength, but also implies their madness. The old man walked out of the dark corner and stepped into the sunlight.
He didn't walk fast, but he was extremely calm. His body was not strong, but he was full of strength. The family name Beowulf represents the highest honor in the secret party.
None of the inheritors of their family's surname from generation to generation have disgraced this honor. Instead, they have used cold-blooded, cold and efficient means to make it even better.
The old man's skin was not the healthy bronze color as imagined, but rather sickly pale. Tiny white scales spread on his slightly red arms, and his body actually appeared to be transformed into a dragon.
However, over thousands of years, the probability of a deadpool appearing in the Beowulf family is very low. Even if there is, it will be cleaned out by the family owner.
There has been a saying in the secret party that if the Beowulf family betrays, then all mankind will no longer have to stick to this meaningless war.
Their determination to slay the dragon was settled after being bathed in dragon blood one after another, and no one could question it.
Even Conor, who was arrogant and domineering at heart, had to have high respect for this old man, even though the Beowulf family gradually disappeared from the public view of mixed-races as the population decreased.
"So, it's time for us to put the Nibelung Plan on the agenda." The old man was completely exposed to the sunlight that filtered in through the floor-to-ceiling windows. His slightly rosy skin had a different kind of vitality, and he was completely unlike Angers. Old people of the same generation.
These words made the gazes of the elders present at the meeting become enthusiastic at the same time. This plan was first proposed by the Night Watch, and has been suppressed repeatedly by the Secret Party.
To put it bluntly, this plan is to artificially create a super hybrid species to confront the four dragon monarchs head-on.
It combines alchemy technology and biotechnology, using serum purified from dragon blood to awaken the dragon blood in the hybrid body, helping him maintain his self-awareness while breaking through the critical blood limit.
When Ange went to China to make a deal with Li Chengqian, one of the deals he needed was the biotech data owned by Zhengtong.
But in specific operations, they still have two difficulties to overcome. One is that the alchemy matrix needs to be implanted into the participants' bodies, and this work is too precise. Alchemy is also a secret of the Flamel family.
The conjecture of mass-producing super hybrids is basically a failure. Second, dragon serum that meets the conditions is too rare, because every dragon is cunning and powerful, and is basically difficult to capture.
This has to be the most critical issue. The purpose of the Nibelung Plan is to kill the monarch, but if you want to implement this plan, you must first kill a dragon to obtain the serum.
This is why the elders have repeatedly shelved this plan and even classified it as a fantasy.
"We don't have the serum of the four monarchs." Angers said immediately.
"I know, but didn't Kassel College just slaughter a second-generation species? You can try the strength of the Nibelungen plan first." Since Beowulf made this suggestion, he naturally thought of the answer.
This sentence can't help but make the elders feel refreshed. After burning their lives, they can forcibly use the second generation of the world-destroying word spirit Zhulong. Its strength is not much worse than that of the four monarchs, right?
This is the best material currently available to the secret party, and may also be the only feasible material. After all, if the four great monarchs really appeared, let alone using their blood for experiments, the world would be destroyed the next day.
"That red dragon is feasible." Hearing Beowulf's suggestion, Angers, who had always been independent, nodded slowly.
In terms of will to slay dragons, he is not weaker than
"The Bloodthirsty Dragon". He also knows how tough dragons can be if they bear the immortality of a Philosopher's Stone.
"So, who should be chosen as the executor of the Nibelungen Plan?" Of course Angers knew the reason why the elders below were breathing slightly. Even though they were all over the age and weak in physical fitness, there were still juniors and seniors in their family. Young people of the right age.
The elders looked at each other, knowing that Angers might already have a candidate in mind, and now they were just throwing out ideas.
But they were still ready to make a move. Even if Ange had someone in mind, they would have to go through their group of elders to decide whether it was suitable.
As for Beowulf, who raised this topic, he fell silent. Their family's tradition of feeding dragon's blood to babies was cruel and cold. It can be said that it was the prototype of the Nibelung plan.
But it is also because of this family training that the young people of the Beowulf family became deadpools or died on the spot because they could not resist the erosion of dragon blood, which also caused a fault in this glorious family.
In fact, their family simply cannot recommend a suitable young man. As for Conor, his eyes became greedy and fiery. If this technology was mature enough, maybe he could benefit from it and extend the life of this aging body.
"I think the Caesar of the Gattuso family is pretty good. He can take on this important task." Suddenly a senator spoke up at the table, supporting Caesar Gattuso.
Frost just raised his eyebrows without saying a word, just responded to that sentence
"Not bad" is a bit embarrassing. Their family's Caesar was trained according to the standards of ancient Roman emperors since he was a child.
Now, if we want to build a democratic republic, we have to be the next generation of Italian president. His talents in mathematics, horseback riding and fencing have always been extraordinary, and his every move showed the nobility of an emperor.
Except for the rebellious and undisciplined character of the young man, everything else was very satisfactory to the Gattuso family.
The other senators also nodded in agreement. They all knew about Caesar, and it could be said that they had watched him grow up.
They really couldn't find any reason to object to this proud, confident but capable young man.
"I heard that a freshman in your college named Chu Zihang also performed well and is now the president of the Lionheart Club." Beowulf spoke up again at this moment, and he didn't seem to be so in favor of Caesar becoming the plan. executor.
But from his standpoint, it seems to be consistent. After all, his family and the Gattuso family were at odds with each other politically. Beowulf didn't like their businessman-like shrewdness and unmatched moral ambitions, and looked down upon those cowards who were hiding in the dormant cabin to survive.
Even now, after several generations of wealth accumulation, the Gattuso family has become a large family with rich assets.
It is more beautiful than the declining North Owulf family. Frost's face couldn't help but tremble slightly, but he had to respect this old man who had made outstanding contributions to the cause of dragon slaying, so he turned his attention to Angers in the first place, looking forward to his statement.
The elegant old gentleman with a bright red rose on the chest of his suit slowly shook his head. This was really unexpected.
"Chu Zihang is an excellent student. He has a cold personality and efficient actions. He will definitely become a sharp knife in the execution department in the future." Angers did not hesitate to tell the elders how outstanding the students who came out of Kassel College were.
But Beowulf still listened expressionlessly, without any trouble. He could have been the head of the executive department, with Schneider serving as his deputy.
But it was because of Angers' academic philosophy of education and their family's belief that the strong are respected for thousands of years that a true dragon slayer must go through the baptism of blood and fire. Ser, remained in the Cabal as a senator.
"But his speech spirit is the high-risk Junyan. I believe no one can predict what he will become with the reinforcement of the Nibelungs." Angers' words completely extinguished the elders' support for Beowulf's proposal. idea.
Students with unstable bloodlines are basically excluded from this plan. If his physical condition changes due to the stimulation of dragon serum, the consequences will be immeasurable, and the current secret party cannot bear the loss.
In this regard, having a small but stable Caesar like Kotaku Kamamaitachi turned his disadvantage into an advantage.
"So Caesar is the first executor of this plan?" A senator asked again. But Ange slowly shook his head again, and everyone's expressions changed.
"Could it be that you want that young man named Li Longyuan to carry this plan? We do not deny his excellence, but don't forget that he comes from an orthodox background and may become our strongest opponent in the future." Rost finally couldn't sit still anymore, stood up and shouted.
The benefits of this plan are obvious to all, and no senator has the courage to entrust his family's wealth to an orthodox heir.
"But don't forget, Frost, he killed that second generation." Angers still had a faint smile on his face, looking at the man through rimless glasses with majestic eyes like a lion.
"Besides, when this plan matures, the red dragon's serum can be used to transform two to three people. We have no reason to exclude him." Angers' well-founded words left Frost speechless. .
"Then the next candidates are, except Li Longyuan." The middle-aged man had to ask from another angle. He had to fight for a spot for his family.
Nowadays, the Gattuso family is not short of money or power. They only need a powerful leader to rule and have the right to speak within the secret party.
The benefits that the Nibelung Plan brought to Caesar were nothing short of the most important part.
"I want to give it to another S-class student." Angers words almost shocked all the elders.
