“Principal Angers, I’m here.”
"Cancel the launch of the space-based kinetic weapon, and then send a thank-you email to the head of the Pompeii family in my own words."
"Ok."
Recalling Pompeii Gattuso's wicked sense of humor in that video, Angers wanted to give him a taste of his own medicine.
They're all old foxes, so don't pretend to be innocent!
Angers knew perfectly well that Pompeii Gattuso's seemingly kind gesture of contributing his family's secret weapon was actually motivated by ulterior motives.
"Whoever kills the enemy gets the loot" is an unwritten rule.
Angers once used this reason to attribute the ownership of the next generation of dragon bodies to Cao Han, thereby arranging the "guinea pig" beneficiary of the Nibelungen Project to Fingel.
Pompeii Gattuso had the same plan.
Taking advantage of the time crunch and the fact that Angers was at his wits' end and had no better options, he unleashed the ultimate weapon: "divine retribution."
If the White King is successfully killed while landing on his head, then the ownership of the legendary White Emperor's Dragon Bone Cross will likely be undisputed.
Despite Angers's consistently assertive demeanor at the board meetings, it's because he understands his role perfectly; the board members all need him as their savior.
Unfortunately, Pompeii Gattuso ultimately suffered a setback; the "divine retribution" did not come as he hoped, and he also exposed a trump card of his family, which will make the other school board members wary.
No one can guarantee that this big iron rod won't suddenly fall on their head one day.
According to Cao Han's plan, Fingel and his group would likely be needed to provide support. With that in mind, Angers was preparing to contact the students.
As it turned out, Fingel and Ange seemed to have the same idea, and Fingel took the initiative to contact him by phone first.
"Dear Headmaster."
"Where did Cao Han tell you to meet him? Do you need any help?"
If it were during the execution phase of a plan, there might be a need for secrecy, but now that the gods have fallen, Angers feels there's no need to hide anything.
His idea is very simple!
He is already 130 years old and may die suddenly one day. Therefore, Kassel College needs a new leader!
Angers initially believed that the leader would be the next César Gattuso, whom the Gattuso family had painstakingly cultivated.
Now he has a better candidate, Cao Han!
Therefore, Angers not only did not conceal Cao Han's epic feat of slaying a god and dragon, which would be recorded in history, but also intended to announce it to the world in advance.
Chapter 93 Recruiting Two Temporary Subordinates
The main gate of the Blackstone Mansion.
"Everyone, pay attention! We're about to receive Miss Enxi's distinguished guest!" Butler Kimura Hiroshi shouted sternly at the staff standing in two rows at the door.
Most of these people are middle-aged, and like Kimura Hiroshi, they have been serving at the Black Stone Mansion since the previous owner.
The new owner of the official residence, Su Enxi, stood at the very front of everyone.
Because the person she was about to meet was someone she couldn't help but take seriously with all her heart.
Even though Su Enxi had plenty of time to leave, based on the conversation she heard through her friend's earpiece, she ultimately couldn't bring herself to abandon Shude Mai.
Some friendships don't need to be talked about!
During this time, Su Enxi did think of contacting the boss, but the little devil "Lu Mingze" was always elusive.
They are always the ones who are contacted by their bosses, and it is very difficult for them to contact the bosses in return.
This is perhaps the troublesome aspect of spiritual hosts.
Lu Mingze, the little devil who formed a "spiritual symbiosis" with Lu Mingfei, can't just appear wherever he wants.
at the same time.
Cao Han followed Mai Shude and got into the Lexus luxury car that was heading to their base in Japan.
Without comparison, there is no harm. Compared with other people's well-prepared plans, Cao Han realized that his proud plan was more like something he came up with on a whim, and it was as crude as could be.
"..."
The atmosphere inside the car was a bit awkward and silent, mainly because Mai Shude was increasingly unsure of the guy in the passenger seat.
Perhaps it was a woman's sixth sense, but she had a feeling that the other party had recognized her and Su Enxi's identities, especially when combined with what they had said before, which made her even more certain of this.
To avoid saying too much and revealing more of her identity, she chose to remain silent unless Cao Han asked her directly.
Cao Han closed his eyes and quietly felt his strength surge, feeling a sense of great power in every move he made.
To be fair, he had no intention of making enemies of the "Consort Ming's" personal nanny team if possible.
While the further improvement in his strength wouldn't inflate his ego to the point that he believed he was invincible in the Dragon Clan world, it certainly boosted his confidence.
At the same time, his improved strength also brought back some issues that he had previously overlooked.
For example, the battle with Odin in Nibelungen.
At the current stage, Odin, the King of the Sky and Wind who has devoured and mastered "Power" and gained complete authority, definitely belongs to the T0 level combat power.
Odin, who seemed to only be able to use his "time reversal" ability to deal with Cao Han, now realizes that it wasn't actually his full power at that time.
The biggest problem lies with the weapon, Gungnir.
The real causal weapon, Gungnir, should be embedded in the body of the little devil Lu Mingze. The one given to Lancelot as a trump card is more like a one-time replica.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have been so easily damaged and split in two by Cao Han.
Without being able to use Gungnir, Odin's actual strength was likely less than 60%.
Aside from that, who is Cao Han's most feared opponent in the entire Dragon Clan world?
Without a doubt, it was the little devil Lu Mingze!
This kind of chosen one, who "becomes stronger when facing stronger opponents, and whose true strength is unknown" and is blessed by the power of the world, is unpredictable.
Before he had absolute power, Cao Han did not want to go too far, which was the main reason why he did not choose to take action against Jiu De Mai.
"arrive."
The voice of Jiu Demai interrupted Cao Han's deep recollection. When he opened his eyes, he was already in the magnificent Black Stone Mansion standing on the edge of the sea cliff.
There was also a large gate that had been opened in advance, and two rows of people standing neatly behind the gate to welcome them.
"Is this some kind of Japanese tradition? Why do people like to stand in two rows to greet guests?" Cao Han asked, puzzled.
"I do not know either."
Aren't you Japanese?
"I only received ninja training in Japan, I don't know anything else," Mai Shutoku vehemently denied.
Cao Han asked casually, without intending to investigate further. At the same time, he noticed Su Enxi, the "Potato Chip Girl," standing out from the crowd at the very front.
Unfortunately, such a grand display was a bit of a waste of time and effort.
Because the Lexus drove straight into the mansion without stopping at the gate, and the so-called "distinguished guests" didn't even get a chance to see them.
"Go away."
Without saying a word, Su Enxi dismissed all the people at the door and followed Lexus inside.
Cao Han got out of the car carrying the more than one-meter-long White King's spine in one hand, and his weapons, the Black Blade and the Japanese sacred weapon, the Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi, in the other. It couldn't be more troublesome.
He didn't pay much attention at first, but after surfacing, he discovered the "extraordinary" nature of the White King's remains. This thing was constantly emitting a unique spiritual fluctuation.
Such mental fluctuations are difficult for ordinary people to detect, and at most, prolonged exposure would only cause insomnia or similar problems.
However, for hybrids with good mental talent and keen perception, these mental fluctuations are like a signal being sent to them, subtly influencing them and even bewitching them.
From the Four Great Sovereigns and above, pure-blooded dragons possess unique primordial authority:
The Ruins of the King of Ocean and Water, the Wrath of Indra, the King of Sky and Wind, the Dragon of Candlelight, the Dance of Shiva, the King of Earth and Mountains, and the Oracle of the White King and the complete version of the legendary Word of Power: The Emperor and the Blood Gift of the World Tree.
Cao Han speculated that the mental fluctuations present at this moment were one of the manifestations of the White King's ancient authority oracle.
Those of the White King's bloodline are highly susceptible to the devil's temptations when caught in this mental fluctuation.
This explains why, in mythology, after Amaterasu, Tsukuyomi, and Susanoo joined forces to defeat Yamata no Orochi, they didn't directly destroy the god's remains, but instead chose the foolish method of sealing them away.
It is highly likely that if it were not sealed, this relic containing the power of bloodline would constantly emit spiritual fluctuations that would affect the bloodline descendants, which is why they had no choice but to take this drastic measure.
As for why he didn't choose to absorb the power and become the new White King?
Firstly, not everyone is as ambitious as Herzog; secondly, no one can guarantee that they won't be usurped by the gods after absorbing power.
"Can either of you detect the mental fluctuations emanating from this bone?"
"No."
"A little bit."
The two gave their answers. It was not surprising that the former, Shude Mai, did not notice, but the answer given by Su Enxi, who rushed over, surprised Cao Han.
As expected, the Word of Power: Heavenly Evolution has a positive impact on the user's brain development and mental enhancement.
The saying "There are no trashy words of power, only trashy hybrids" is truly embodied in Su Enxi. Through her words of power, Heavenly Evolution, she is practically the Queen of Financial Street, capable of turning lead into gold.
"Is there any way to isolate this mental fluctuation?" Cao Han didn't have much hope; he just asked casually.
After careful consideration, Su Enxi actually gave an answer: "The legendary 'shroud' has the function of separating yin and yang, so it should be able to isolate mental fluctuations as well."
"That was a good answer, but don't answer it again next time."
Cao Han's face darkened, and he said irritably, "This answer is as good as no answer at all. Where am I supposed to find this legendary thing in the current state?"
Suddenly, he began to miss his large, bulky, and inconvenient bronze coffin, which resembled a sliding suitcase.
The tatami mats are filled with Japanese style.
Su Enxi and Jiu Demai were sitting on one side, while Cao Han was alone on the other.
"Whether you stick your neck out or not, you're going to get stabbed anyway. Thinking that things can't go on like this, Su Enxi took the initiative to bring up the matter: 'What do you want to do to us, Brother Mengnan, just give me a straight answer.'"
"Don't worry, your 'boss' calls me 'boss' after all, so I definitely won't do anything to you. However, I'll need your cooperation and assistance during my time in Japan."
The boss is calling the other party "boss"?!
Cao Han's words, though seemingly casual, startled the two people opposite him.
