Upon hearing this word, Cao Han frowned slightly.
I couldn't help but think of my experience in Odin's Nibelungen, and I knew clearly that a dragon king would be like a fish in water in his own Nibelungen.
If you can't find a way out, you might be trapped there for the rest of your life.
Of course, there is also a theory that once the master who built Nibelungen, the Dragon King, died completely, Nibelungen would naturally fall without a fight.
The best example is the Baidi City, which was the last city to collapse during the Three Gorges Dam project.
"So, your mission is actually to help me get into the Nibelungen, right?"
"Bingo!"
Mai snapped her fingers. "But let's make this clear first, the motto of our 'Healer Squad' is to only provide support. I'm sure you don't need a weak woman like me who can't even kill a chicken for combat, do you?"
Weak as a kitten?
Cao Han glanced indifferently at the two short knives tucked at the other man's waist.
That was a pseudo-divine weapon imbued with the power and authority of the former world king; it couldn't possibly have anything to do with someone who was powerless to even kill a chicken.
However, since the other party had already said that, Cao Han naturally didn't intend to point it out.
From the very beginning, he didn't even want to bring Fingel along, but considering the existence of the so-called "key" on him, it might become a factor that attracts Leviathan at a crucial moment.
What a coincidence!
The timing and motive of Mai Shude's appearance were both too coincidental!
Because of Cao Han's presence, Fingel, no matter how much he doubted the true identity of Shude Mai, temporarily put aside his doubts.
Putting aside other factors, at least the other party's actions so far show no malice whatsoever.
"So here's the question: how do you plan to help us find the Nibelungen?"
They had accidentally wandered into the Nibelungen during the Greenland ice sea incident, and Fingel wouldn't be standing here if Eva hadn't paid with her life.
He has done a lot of research on Nibelungen for this reason.
To put it bluntly, Nibelungen is like the "home" of the dragon kings, and this home usually has two doors.
What they need to do now is figure out how to crack the password set for the door and then force their way in without the owner's permission.
"It's very simple, just one word... wait!"
"Wait!?" X2
Yes, for now we can only wait.
Mai Shude looked embarrassed. She had just been so confident that she could help Cao Han and the others find the Nibelungen, but the boomerang of shame had come back to haunt her so quickly.
Feeling immense pressure from their stares, she had no choice but to continue explaining:
"To enter Nibelungen without the owner's consent, both the medium and the mark must be met."
Regarding the mark, both of them are from the Nibelungen region, so they certainly meet the requirement; the only missing condition is the medium.
medium?
Cao Han frowned, recalling the details of his escape from Odin's Nibelungen.
In his view, the only thing that could be considered a medium at that time was that storm, or rather, that...
typhoon!
"Does 'medium' refer to a specific environment or location?"
"Smart! No wonder you're a tough guy with both strength and wisdom." Mai Shude offered a light compliment.
What is the medium in Leviathanne-Berungen?
ice?
Impossible, they're everywhere in the Arctic.
snowstorm?
It doesn't seem like it; they came here through a blizzard.
But apart from these two, there are no other environmental factors to be found in the Arctic.
"It's the aurora borealis! Or rather, the Northern Lights!"
Before Cao Han and Finger could ask, Mai Shude preemptively announced the correct answer: "The aurora is a luminous phenomenon caused by charged high-energy particles from the magnetosphere and solar wind being guided into the Earth's atmosphere by the Earth's magnetic field and colliding with atoms in the upper atmosphere (thermosphere)."
This time, Fingel finally couldn't help but complain, "I know high school geography too, I don't need you to explain it here. The problem is that the aurora is an unpredictable phenomenon."
If that's the case, then we've made a wasted trip."
"I know you're in a hurry, but don't worry yet."
Mai Shude, of course, wouldn't speak without reason, so she picked up the topic and continued: "Under normal circumstances, that is indeed the case, but the Arctic is not in a normal situation now, because the activity of a certain dragon king has caused the elements in the entire Arctic sky to start fluctuating wildly."
After some professional calculations, the rare aurora borealis, which can only be observed in the Arctic, will appear no later than three hours and twenty-four minutes later.
This is also our only chance to enter the Nibelungen!

The howling wind couldn't dispel the awkward atmosphere between the three, and the extreme cold of minus seventy degrees Celsius couldn't shake the silence between them.
Trust is the bridge to communication.
Clearly, even with Cao Han's presence, a bridge of trust could not be built between Fingel and Mai Shude.
Again!
Both of them are meticulous and have many secrets they don't want to reveal easily.
"Kassel College's special 'soldier's ration pills'—this is the first time I've ever tried this stuff."
Cao Han chose to sit on the ground and opened a vacuum-sealed package from his tactical backpack. Inside were fist-sized, brown, ball-shaped objects.
Despite his incredible physical strength, he still expends a lot of energy after strenuous exercise.
After giving Mai a piece of sake to everyone, I took a big bite and the taste was surprisingly good, not dry as I had expected.
Three times five times two.
After swallowing a whole "soldier's ration pill", a feeling of fullness arises spontaneously.
As expected of a special product developed by Kassel College specifically for the Executive Department, it can replenish energy in a very short time while retaining as much of the taste as possible.
"How is that kid Lu Mingfei doing now?"
The sudden question caused Mai Shude to pause for a moment while she was chewing, before resuming her normal chewing motion, her expression showing a hint of hesitation.
Not everyone has teeth as good as Cao Han's, able to swallow such awful stuff in just a few bites.
"I don't......"
Mai Shude initially intended to say she didn't know, but immediately realized her mistake and quickly changed her words, "I would say it's a complete transformation."
It can only be said that Cao Han's appearance was too timely.
It was a time when Lu Mingfei's parents had just abandoned him and he had only recently started living under someone else's roof. He hadn't yet fully developed into the timid, cowardly, and insecure little boy he is today.
With Cao Han's help, he has awakened the dragon blood within him ahead of schedule, gaining extraordinary abilities and encountering a very responsible senior, Chu Zihang.
At first, Chu Zihang was worried that Lu Mingfei would not be able to handle the amount of training. However, after witnessing Lu Mingfei collapse to the ground and not want to move a single finger during training, Chu Zihang was able to instantly revive and become energetic again.
As long as you can't practice to death, practice to death!
I work out at the gym on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays; I practice swordsmanship at the children's palace on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays; and as for the rest of the days, Sundays...
I arrived at the internet cafe on time in the morning, turned on my computer, logged into World of Warcraft, and joined Chen Hao, Fingel, and others in high-intensity dungeons to catch up.
At first, the aunt strongly suspected that Lu Mingfei had been led astray by some "bad friends" and went out to wander the streets every day. It wasn't until Chu Zihang personally visited him that the misunderstanding was cleared up.
In addition, the changes in Lu Mingfei were also visible to the naked eye.
Boys are typically around fourteen or fifteen years old, a time when they grow taller rapidly. In less than a month, he grew nearly ten centimeters taller, and his overall demeanor became more sunny and cheerful.
I believe that when Lu Mingfei returns to Shilan Middle School after the start of the new semester, everyone who knows him will be completely astonished.
Are you talking about Brother Lu?
Upon hearing Cao Han and Jiu Demai mention Lu Mingfei, Fingel was no longer tired.
Of all the Monster Hunter members, Lu Mingfei was the one who best suited Fingel's tastes and had the best relationship with him.
"Yes," Cao Han nodded in agreement.
"Haha, I'm sure he'll really love the gift I bought from Japan last time!"
Fingel couldn't help but grin with delight at the thought of the real surprise he had secretly hidden in the gift, but the next second he couldn't help but sigh, "It's a pity that by the time Zihang and Mingfei come to Kassel College, I will have already graduated."
Sending children to the battlefield is a dereliction of duty on our part as adults – Menek Kassel
It was because of this statement from his deceased friend that Hilbert Jean Angers established the rule of only admitting adult students when he founded the Kassel College, a rule that has been followed to this day.
At most, they would establish preparatory classes in various countries around the world, recruiting some underage hybrids who had awakened their dragon bloodline ahead of time, and teaching them how to master power and some secrets about this world that are not known to the general public.
However, Cao Han, who was sitting to the side, felt a momentary unease when he heard Fingel's exclamation.
Only he, who had read the original novel, knew that when Chu Zihang and Lu Mingfei entered Kassel College, Fingel had not only not graduated yet, but had even broken Kassel College's record for repeating a year.
Speaking of Lu Mingfei's astonishing transformation, Jiu Demai couldn't help but glance at Cao Han beside her, thinking of that night between the two of them...
A chance encounter.
It might not have been a coincidence.
Mai Shude muttered to herself about her unscrupulous boss who was always elusive and mysterious, wondering if he had deliberately arranged things this way to make Lu Mingfei change.
"Shude Mai, would you like to join our Legendary Creature Hunter and Human World Order Maintainer Association?"
When the topic of Lu Mingfei came up, Cao Han suddenly felt an urge to speak about him.
The main reason is that the three healers in the original work played a key role, and they are also the support talents that the guild is currently in dire need of.
Think about the members of the guild now...
In short, they're either ruthless killers or reckless fools; even with so many people, you might not be able to find a single competent strategist.
Ah! (second tone)
