Dragon Clan: Thought So Far

Lu Mingfei quickly packed up and went downstairs while adjusting his collar.

Su Xiaoqiang felt so embarrassed at this moment, her face was like red jade, and she covered her head with the quilt and refused to get up.

It was because her thoughts were in disorder last night. If it were now, she would never be able to muster up the courage to do such an extraordinary thing...

When Lu Mingfei saw Wazhu and Charlotte in the flower garden, he still felt a little uncomfortable. After looking around, he still mustered up the courage to walk in front of the two girls.

"What bad things did you do last night?" Wazhu asked angrily.

"No, nothing..."

"Come over here!" Wazhu glared at him and put his hands on his waist.

Lu Mingfei sighed, but still took a step forward obediently, standing in front of Wazhu with his head down like a child who had made a mistake.

But the little girl just slapped him twice in the air, sighed and said: "You are really an animal with a brain in the lower body?"

Lu Mingfei also blushed a little, coughed twice and suggested: "How about we go out for breakfast first, and talk while eating?"

The heroic German girl with painted eyebrows and hair was also very uncomfortable standing next to them. She obviously understood what Wazhu and Lu Mingfei were talking about, but pretended that she didn't understand.

In fact, Lu Mingfei was also secretly looking at her with the corner of his eye after going downstairs. This Kassel girl, who had met him at the Sotheby's auction in Chicago a few years ago, was wearing a blue-gray woolen coat, a black plaid scarf around her neck, and very high boots, which made her legs look extremely slender and long. The high ponytail swayed gently in the wind, and the slender eyebrows and eyes showed a sword-like sharpness.

The Kassel family is a very old dragon-slaying family. They made their fortune in Hamburg, Germany. In the Middle Ages, they quickly infiltrated their power throughout Europe through wars and economic trade. In 1900, Menek Cassel, who used the Word Spirit. Rhine to try to die with the Dragon King Li Wuyue, was the main branch of this family. He held the largest part of wealth and power, and could even influence the administrative and military policies of the German government at that time to a certain extent.

After Menek Cassel died, their branch began to wither. Until the eve of the reorganization of the Secret Party, the wealth left by Menek could no longer find any legal heirs, and Angers had to use them to create and build the Kassel College.

But the fact that other branches of the Kassel family are becoming more and more prosperous in Germany corresponds to the gradual withering of the main branch. Miss Charlotte, who has become famous in the German mixed-race society in recent years, is a Kassel person who grew up in such a background.

They believe that since Menek Cassel is dead and the main branch has completely collapsed, the wealth and industry left by the family should be handed over to the hands of the collateral branch, so they have always believed that Kassel College and the board of directors are a group of unreasonable robbers.

The academy is named after the surname of Menek, but there are few students from the Cassel family in the academy. Angers once sighed in front of Lu Mingfei, saying that if Charlotte could join them, the academy might be able to have a third leader in recent years in addition to Caesar and Chu Zihang.

Unfortunately, the Cassel family is like the ancient knowledge inheritors before the popularization of education. They stubbornly refused the invitation of the academy and used their own way to educate their descendants with dragon blood flowing in their bodies.

Charlotte Cassel in front of him is such an elite dragon slayer cultivated and trained by her family.

She has an aura just standing there, as sharp as a long sword that would rather break than bend.

"It's a pleasure to meet you again, Miss Charlotte." Lu Mingfei nodded to Charlotte.

"Mr. Lu, you have a high prestige. Although the academy has issued a worldwide wanted order for you, there are still a large part of the forces in the mixed-blood society that are not prepared to follow the instructions of the secret party." Charlotte said lightly, "You are still a distinguished guest to the Cassel family and the Holy Palace Jishihui."

Lu Mingfei scratched his eyebrows: "It's a pity that there is no way to visit them."

They walked out of the flower garden along the cobblestone path, stepped through the courtyard gate, and strolled along the bank of Yangcheng Lake.

It is actually the Orthodox and the Holy Palace Jishihui who really want to hold a meeting to discuss the details of the cooperation. The Frog Group is not interested in that kind of thing. Charlotte is only the person in charge on the German side. In fact, both sides have a large team to negotiate and reach a consensus.

As for Lu Mingfei's desire to get another piece of Black King's bone blood from the Cassel family, there is no need to discuss this matter with others in a big way.

"In fact, the elders in Europe also questioned the actions of Kassel Academy, but the Blood Covenant still holds absolute authority in the world of mixed-bloods." Charlotte shrugged, "As the maintainer of the existing order, their family had to send a hunting team to work with the executive department of the academy to hunt you down in various countries."

They walked into the Qiaotou Restaurant and sat down at the table by the window. Lu Mingfei ordered pan-fried buns and spicy soup for himself, Wa ordered sweet tofu pudding and fried dough sticks, and Charlotte ordered a portion of red oil wontons. Lu Mingfei looked at her strangely.

Qiaotou Restaurant is an old local restaurant with good food and wine, but the boss is very casual in doing business, and the service is always inadequate, so the business is not very good.

The steamed white fish and Tai Diao wine here are outstanding. Eating fish and drinking wine while looking at the lake view is also a unique flavor. But it's morning now, and the boss doesn't do business at noon, so Lu Mingfei doesn't have this blessing.

"After I killed the second generation at Kuimen in the Three Gorges, every mixed-race family in the Western world got the bones and blood of those two dragons. No matter what they did with those things, they should all accept my gratitude." Lu Mingfei said softly. Said, "But until now I haven't seen many Western families willing to lend a helping hand to me."

He deliberately did not mention Pierre Cadmus when he said this.

Everyone in the power field is intrigued by each other. Now that they can sit together and drink a bowl of spicy soup, it does not mean that they will not meet each other in the near future.

If one day Lu Mingfei and the Cassel family really come to the opposite side, then he doesn't want his current words and deeds to cause trouble to those who are willing to help him.

Lord Wa was sitting next to Lu Mingfei and was convinced when he heard what he said. She scooped up the bean curd with a small spoon and put it in her mouth while nodding.

So far, the only ones who are clearly willing to lend a helping hand to Lu Mingfei are the Sheqiba family and the Orthodox. Although the Cadmus family and other elders do not agree with Pompei's views, they did not choose to openly defy the existing order in the end.

"Because the power of the Blood Pact Society has already penetrated into every family, you have no foundation, and there is no long-term and close connection with these families... In other words, no matter whether you die or continue to live, for you It has no influence on them, so no one will fight against the academy for you." Charlotte smiled and took a sip of her morning tea.

Lu Mingfei was confused for a moment, but then he realized it and smiled to himself.

The most glorious period of the college was from the 1950s to the beginning of this century, when the college's influence spread to all parts of the world with the rise of the United States. They used their military connections to send missionary-like senior executive officers to almost every country through U.S. military bases around the world, and established new executive branches in those countries. They also used a nearly unlimited number of Cash flow is wildly impacting the original order of emerging markets or established capital markets.

Even during the Cold War, the college was still able to conduct arms trade with the Soviets. During the Afghanistan war, oil merchants with the support of the school board were still able to easily obtain large amounts of oil from the Middle East and transport it to all parts of the world. Diamonds from North Africa were also once used by Cassel College. It's in your hands.

Under the double stick of military and economic pressure, from the British Isles in the west to the Ural Mountains in the east, the civilized world in the West once trembled under the majesty of Kassel Academy.

To this day, almost most of the financial industries controlled by mixed races, including the wine trade, fishery trade and arms trade, are still inextricably linked to Cassel College. European mixed race families may unite They have the strength to challenge the secret party, but they have no way to abandon such a huge market.

In comparison, Lu Mingfei, who had generously shared the blood and bones of the next generation with them, had almost pitiful chips in his hands.

Kings never mind giving honors to warriors, but if they want to share their own country and wealth, then any emperor in the world will kill the hero out of anger.

This is the fact. Those aristocratic families in Europe that have been prosperous for thousands of years don't mind touting Lu Mingfei's achievements in history books, but it is absolutely impossible for them to stand on the opposite side of the secret party because of Lu Mingfei.

Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!

After breakfast was served, the three of them were busy eating until Lu Mingfei asked for a second bowl of spicy soup. Charlotte suddenly interrupted Lu Mingfei's attempt to fill his stomach.

"What did the college do with the embryo?" she asked.

Lu Mingfei knew she was talking about Yu.

"Probably last year, the principal and the school board planned to use that cocoon to implement a project codenamed Golden Holy Serum, which is to extract non-toxic dragon fetal blood from embryos to refine serum, and then use this serum for injection Enter the experimenter's body to artificially create a hybrid that is closer to a pure-blood dragon," he said. "But this plan ultimately failed shortly before the Tokyo incident began... The embryo that the principal brought back to the college from Chicago was placed in an ice cellar, but lost its activity for unknown reasons. There is no way to hatch an embryo that has lost its activity. If it’s a dragon, then extracting fetal blood becomes nonsense.”

"What a pity..." Charlotte had a look of regret on her face.

"I know that those embryos at Sotheby's auction were actually entrusted by the Cassel family for auction." He hesitated and said, "But judging from your current performance, it seems that you are not aware of this matter. ”

"On the contrary, I know that my family entrusted Henkel with that thing for auction." Charlotte shook her head, "At the same time, I also know that they are hoping that the secret party will come and get this thing."

Lu Mingfei picked up his spirits.

The wide-mouthed porcelain bowl was put back on the table. Charlotte wiped the corners of her mouth with a tissue and slowly turned to look at Lu Mingfei, "After the Summer Mourning incident, my great-grandfather found it from the ruins of Cassel Manor. Hilbert Jean Angers was on the verge of death, and some other things were found with him...the embryo was one of them."

At this moment, Lu Mingfei suddenly understood why Ange said that Charlotte Cassel was the leader of the German mixed-race in this era. Her sitting posture did not change much, but her originally bright eyes seemed to suddenly light up with a dazzling light. A strong self-confidence burst out from Charlotte's body naturally from the inside out, like an emperor telling the history of his rise to power.

For a moment, Lu Mingfei felt that he was facing Caesar, a female version of Caesar.

"That attack was planned by the Qing government. We had just ended the war against dragons on the battlefield of Xirang, and returned to this land to weave power like a spider web." Wazhu took a steamed bun from Lu Mingfei and said with a bulging mouth, "The rulers at that time were barbarians from the north. They were unwilling to wait for the revolution led by the orthodoxy to be launched... The Aisin-Gioro family had no way to compete with us, but the Qing Dynasty had the army in their hands. In order to prevent the orthodoxy from getting help from the outside when launching a war, they decided to first defeat the secret party, which provided the greatest help to the oriental hybrids at that time. As far as I know, the Lionheart Society is the core brotherhood of the secret party. They are related to the Qing government because of a man named Lu Shanyan."

Lu Mingfei felt his heart skip a beat.

He knew Lu Shanyan, that was his grandfather's grandfather, who was said to be from the same era as Angers and Cassel.

"But the Qing government's intelligence system has always been weak. They don't know what kind of organization the Lionheart Society of the Secret Party is, so they even sent naturalized pure-blooded dragons to expedition overseas. The embryo may be left behind after these dragons were killed by the Word Spirit. Rhine." Wazhu said.

It seems that she is completely unaware of Yu's affairs, Lu Mingfei thought.

"But since that thing came from the Cassel family, why did you bid with us at the auction?" Lu Mingfei looked at Charlotte in confusion.

"Because the old man in the family decided to follow the will of Menek Cassel and give it to Ange, but the Saint Palace Jishihui believes that if a pure-blooded dragon embryo is obtained by us, it will be more valuable." Charlotte said softly.

Lu Mingfei then remembered that Ange had told him that although Charlotte was a member of the Cassel family, the two had already parted ways because of many disagreements in their ideas.

He sighed quietly. If Charlotte had left the Cassel family, how could she know whether this family held the Black King's bone blood?
