Dragon Clan: Thought So Far

Just as Bunin's special train crushed the snow and raised snow dust several meters high as it moved towards the Far East, in the distant birch forest covered with white in the deep mountains, flocks of flying birds were being swept up by something huge. The circling flocks of birds spread their wings as if chasing the train and made shrill howls.

Lu Mingfei stood up suddenly, stood behind the double-layer resin bulletproof glass, and looked intently in the direction where the flock of birds was swept up.

The birch trees that were as strong as iron walls were being destroyed in large pieces. The snow pressing on the treetops was lifted into the air and then fell down again, like a heavy rain. It was definitely not human power that could cause such a noise, but some kind of huge monster.

It is not difficult to imagine that the academy must have used some new genetic weapons or dragon subspecies in the hunt for Lu Mingfei.

The strong wind blew through the endless forests, the quiet Volga River flowed through, and dark clouds gathered in the sky again without knowing when, as if the next snowstorm was just around the corner, and the people on the train could touch the bottom of the cloud mountain with just a raise of their hands.

Suddenly, a deafening buzzing sound came from all directions deep in the clouds, as if ten million giant wasps were circling around the train frantically.

Lu Mingfei and Ling looked at each other, and both of them realized that the noise was not from a wasp, but the sharp scream of a helicopter rotor tearing through the air.

Beowulf's style is indeed completely different from Professor Schneider's. If it were Schneider, he would at least not attack Lu Mingfei near the outskirts of Moscow, but would wait until he leaves the core of the country, and then slowly open up his net and wait for him to get in.

The elder and his hunting team were like hungry wolves chasing an elk in the wilderness. They had been hungry for too long and could not wait to pounce on the elk and tear its larynx.

Suddenly, spots of light appeared in the depths of the towering black clouds in the low sky, piercing through the clouds from the inside out and leaving an imprint on the bottom of the clouds. Lu Mingfei roughly counted the intersecting spots of light and found that there were nine of them. This meant that nine huge steel monsters were following them silently along the railway tracks to the east in Moscow's air defense identification zone.

Then bright beams of light shot from every corner in all directions towards the carriage where Lu Mingfei was. It was obvious that the hunting team had accurately located Lu Mingfei.

A black-painted Mi-35 helicopter could be vaguely seen flying up and down in the gaps in the clouds.

"Before meeting the sons of those powerful people, Bunin was just an insignificant spokesperson. The Ministry of National Defense can abandon him and replace him with someone else at any time. With such a large arms distribution market, I don't know how many arms dealers are eyeing his position." Lu Mingfei said softly. He placed the black aluminum alloy box on the table, rolled up his sleeves and prepared to assemble his modified Remington sniper rifle.

He has always been at the top of the class in the academy's shooting classes, and few people can surpass Lu Mingfei in this regard.

What's more, after the modification, the range and accuracy of this sniper rifle have been greatly improved. The wind direction and wind speed that would have a huge impact on the sniper on the battlefield are nothing to it.

Ling held Lu Mingfei's wrist and pulled him behind him.

This girl looked two times smaller than Lu Mingfei, but when she stood in front of Lu Mingfei, she suddenly felt like a lone man blocking the way for ten thousand.

"It's not our turn," she said.

The next second, the sound of some kind of mechanical movement came from a certain carriage on this train. Lu Mingfei turned his head to look at her: "What is it?"

"Close-in defense system." Zero said without further explanation.

The next second, the armed helicopter launched a honeycomb rocket, and the dense rockets formed an impenetrable destructive net in the air.

Lu Mingfei quietly activated the dragon bone state. As long as Bunin did not show the ability to stop these rockets from destroying the train, he would immediately use his body as a barrier to cover Her Royal Highness the Princess.

Then, deafening gunfire rang out beside them, probably on the same train.

Alexander Bunin actually transferred the close-in defense guns on modern warships to his own special train. The roofs of the carriages carrying the close-in defense gun systems opened automatically with the operation of the machinery, and then thousands of close-in defense shells poured into the sky every minute.

Dense rockets and the steel barrage fired by close-in defense guns collided violently in the air, followed by an earth-shaking explosion.

In the dense flames, the train moved backwards instead of forwards, without any sign of slowing down, and rushed out from the flames of the explosion.

"Even the Moscow branch didn't have the guts to dispatch a large number of armed helicopters to attack Bunin's special train. The cost was too high, and they couldn't afford the questioning of the school board. But the elders wouldn't have so many scruples. They were rich enough to rival a country, and they were so experienced that they could even ignore some of the rules of the dark society." Zero looked up at the fireballs that the honeycomb rockets turned into when they exploded, and the flames illuminated her pretty face. "At the craziest time, Beowulf even forced the two countries that were fighting during World War I to stop the armed struggle and devote their troops to their dragon-slaying cause."

After the first round of Honeycomb rockets were completely cleared, the close-in defense system on the special train fell silent.

The Mi-35, which rose to a height of tens of meters, began to warm up its machine gun system. A moment later, intensive gunfire rang out from the sky.

A barrage of bullets fell from the sky like a torrent of metal. The train was still moving at full speed, with the speed having increased to 180 kilometers per hour. Bullets hit both sides of the carriage, and the snow, which was up to one meter thick, was blown into snowflakes several meters high. The flying snowflakes had no time to fully bloom before they were completely left behind by the carriage towed by the steam locomotive.

But more bullets hit the outer shell of the carriage, which only caused a few sparks of fire.

Apparently, these towed carriages were specially made, and the bullets from the heavy machine guns were unable to penetrate their outer shells.

Some kind of airborne artillery shell came with a whistling sound and fell together with the bullets from the heavy machine gun, exploding loudly near the railway tracks and lifting up whole pieces of land.

The thick smell of gunpowder instantly swept over the suburbs of Moscow under the dark clouds.

"It's so fucking exciting." said Lu Mingfei.

"There's something even more exciting." Ling pointed to the mountains in the distance.

Lu Mingfei looked in that direction, his pupils contracted slightly, and all the muscles in his body tensed.

The birch forest has come to an end, and ahead is an endless expanse of bushes. At this time, the huge monsters that were rampaging in the woods finally roared and broke through the shackles and came to the open wilderness.

Large patches of light were cast in that direction by helicopters, and groups of monsters were crawling on all fours in the light spots, moving forward rapidly like aliens.

"They actually used this kind of monster. Am I more of a threat than the Dragon King in the eyes of some people?" Lu Mingfei spat and slammed the box of the seven deadly sins on the table with a bang. The bronze box popped open like a folding fan, and the mythical swords roared slightly inside.

That's a group of pigs.

Yes, it's a pig.

A group of domesticated wild boars with exposed tusks and inverted canine teeth.

It has thick, hard dark grey bristles, thick scales covering the skin deep inside the bristles, fangs as big as ivory, blood-red eyes with a slight golden hue, and a body size comparable to that of a rhinoceros.

This is a subspecies of dragon that was born in a laboratory just like the Dragonblood Hounds. They have collars implanted around their necks that can release ultra-high electric currents to control the monsters' movements. They are in a state of hunger for a long time, and once they are thrown into the battlefield, they will inevitably cause a bloody massacre.

Compared to hounds, pigs have more useful brains. They can understand the academy's instructions more clearly and deal fatal blows to specific enemies. However, related research should still be in the experimental stage. Unexpectedly, Beowulf actually put this thing in the suburbs of Moscow.

It's really crazy.

Bunin's special train now runs on the K4 line. The academy has neither the authority nor the courage to destroy this international line, but controlling a group of dragon-like wild boars to hit the entire train from the side and overturn it can avoid damage to the rails to the greatest extent.

The gunfire overhead had stopped. Apparently the commander of the helicopter formation had discovered that it was difficult for the heavy machine guns to cause damage to the carriages, so he stopped this ineffective attack.

But at the same time, the guy who commanded this helicopter formation was definitely an experienced battlefield veteran. All the helicopters arrived above the special train with amazing organization and discipline, and black ropes were dropped from above.

The executive department specialists dressed in combat uniforms lit up their golden eyes and walked along the rope to the roof of the special train. The oncoming strong wind with a speed of dozens of kilometers per hour did not pose any threat to them at all. These people were like nails on the roof and stood still.

Lu Mingfei sat down next to Ling, propped up his head, and quickly thought of a countermeasure.

There was a knock on the door.

"Please feel free." Ling's cold voice sounded.

It was Bunin who appeared at the door. The old man had already changed into silk pajamas early. He had a glass of champagne in his hand and looked very comfortable. It seemed that he was receiving a massage from a maid.

Seeing Bunin's look, Lu Mingfei and Ling looked at each other and suddenly felt relieved.

The name Alexander Bunin is well-known in the congress circle of Moscow. It is obvious that he has been able to rise to his current position from a smuggler not only by luck, but also by his extraordinary courage and bravery, which has enabled him to build a large business.

It is obviously a critical moment now, but Bunin is still strolling leisurely. It is not difficult to imagine that the old man did not expect the current situation to be desperate.

"Your Highness, the enemy of you and Mr. Lu is indeed extraordinary. Not only can they mobilize the military's armed helicopter fleet to intercept us, they also have biological weapons that I have never seen before." Bunin sat down in front of Lu Mingfei and Ling. His breathing was calm and his heartbeat was steady. He even had a facial mask on his face. It was obvious that he did not take the attack seriously.

Zero was silent for a moment: "I don't think this level should be a threat to Mr. Bunin?"

"A batch of cold storage carriages were transported from St. Petersburg Railway Station to Moscow Railway Station a week ago. You know, I have many good friends in the Transportation Department... Anyway, that batch of goods came from northern Europe and followed a different set of procedures. No one knows what is inside. The confidentiality level is extremely high." Bunin smiled and said, "I heard that Kassel Academy will use some... failed gene products to hunt down its enemies. Those are the wild boars, right?"

The dragon subspecies that rushed out of the mountains did not hide their intentions at all. They were almost clearly visible from the car, so even if they wanted to lie, they couldn't do it.

Ling and Lu Mingfei didn't say anything, which was considered as their agreement.

"The good news is that I have made all the necessary preparations, including the flies overhead and the wild boars in the distance." Bunin took out a device from his pocket and pressed a button. Some exciting but niche piano music began to play in the car. Lu Mingfei didn't understand why, but his expression changed after a moment.

A shrill air raid alarm suddenly sounded from the red house at the end of the path in another direction, and then the house collapsed completely, with smoke and violent flames rising from the ruins.

There were actually five wheeled missile vehicles hidden underneath, loaded with SAM anti-aircraft missiles for combating short-range low-altitude targets. The five missile vehicles formed an air defense position. At this time, the flames were rising from the air defense position at a steep angle, and wandering at high speed like a swarm of bees with terrifying sonic booms.

A moment later, several muffled sounds were heard from the dark clouds, and the fire illuminated the clouds.

With the speed of the armed helicopter, it had no chance to make any effective evasion when facing the anti-aircraft missiles. It was immediately hit and exploded.

The commissioner who had already landed on the roof of the car just looked up at the fire of the helicopter explosion indifferently, and then immediately armed himself.

But at the same time, the robot dogs controlled by the cluster system were carrying matching automatic rifles and had engaged in a firefight with them on the same platform.

The display screen in the carriage was broadcasting the battlefield situation on the roof in real time. Lu Mingfei had a serious expression on his face and tapped the box of the seven deadly sins lightly with his fingers.

If it were him, he would not have done things so drastically. Killing all the commissioners from the Russian branch here means that he and Kassel College are really in a life-and-death situation.

But Bunin was personally responsible for the defense of this train, and he didn't care about the college or the board of directors.

More and more robot dogs crawled out from the front two carriages, poured out along the windows, and attached themselves to the metal shells. The dense barrage of steel almost immediately suppressed the academy's attack.

"Almost all the mainstream countries in the world agree that the future battlefield will be controlled by artificial intelligence. I also support this view, so I spent a lot of money to get these good things from the Americans and Chinese." Bunin smiled, as if everything was under control.

"You don't seem to be worried about hackers taking control of the robot dog?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"Because they are not connected to the Internet at all." Bunin shrugged and turned off the display screen. The last scene was that the commissioners on the special train were struggling to hide behind several explosion-proof shields. Those shields that claimed to be able to withstand direct artillery fire were already in danger.

"Do you know how I can deal with those wild boars?" Bunin asked.

Lu Mingfei shook his head.

"Biological weapons are biological weapons after all. The real king of land warfare is actually the steel monster..." Bunin sighed.

A black line suddenly appeared on the distant horizon, and Lu Mingfei looked over.

It turned out to be a group of tanks crushing the snow and rushing towards this direction.

The ground was shaking as they moved, and the dragon blood subspecies that were dropped nearby suddenly woke up, with expressions of fear revealed in their blood-red pupils.
