Brass Dragon in the Dragon World

Chapter 54

A few days later, Avignon, Vaucluse, southern France.

This is a very famous city. If you have heard the story of the prisoner of Avignon, then this beautiful small city may have some different meanings in your eyes.

During World War II, France once had a government that took into account both the rule of virtue and the rule of law. Unfortunately, after the end of World War II, the rule of virtue disappeared and only the rule of law remained.

But now, after years of reconstruction, France, which had not suffered much loss, has quickly restored its past prosperity. If those who were hurt in those years are ignored, the city is still as beautiful as before.

"Is your school board meeting going to be held here?"

Ander was wearing a Chinese tunic suit and walking on the streets of Avignon with Angers. This outfit is very conspicuous, but fortunately, the French are not weak in tolerance. Only a few people cast curious eyes on Ander's appearance. .

"Avignon is actually a beautiful city with a lot of history."

"I know, but this place is too wet."

Avignon is located on the banks of the Rhone River, and Ender is not used to the large amount of flowing water.

"This is a Mediterranean climate, hot and dry in summer, where is the humidity?"

Ender shrugged his shoulders. He made up his mind that if he joined the school board, he would set the meeting place in the Sahara Desert. The yellow quicksand was the most comfortable place for him.

"Remember to choose in the desert next time."

"Then those old men who are not working hard are going to complain."

The current situation in Angers seems to be the leader of the secret party, the most outstanding dragon slayer in Europe, but in fact the secret party is not unified. The former Presbyterian family died out directly.

Coupled with the wars over the years, it directly led to a major change in the leadership of the secret party. In addition to Angers, the homeless and powerless dragon slayer, a large number of mixed-race families rose up.

"Especially the Gattuso family, those upstarts."

The Gattuso family used to be a mafia family in Sicily. Their main business was smuggling, and their side job was dragon slaying. They liked to dance ballet and smash the heads of their enemies with Chicago typewriters.

This family used to be the emperor of southern Italy and the godfather of many Sicilians, but they were not very powerful among the mixed races.

However, with the promulgation of the Prohibition of Alcohol in the United States, bootlegging brought untold wealth to the Gattuso family, but soon Mussolini came to power and began to hunt down the Mafia in Italy.

The Gattuso family was once in danger of genocide, but this group of Italians who did not like to take the usual path found a new way of survival.

Under the high pressure of Mussolini, they resumed the old way of life, opened up a new business route between Italy and Tunisia by using the channel of smuggling alcohol, and brought chocolate and cheese to the Italians. earning money.

Afterwards, the Gattuso family got on the line of the secret party, adding fire to Mussolini's downfall, and became the richest family in Italy while taking revenge.

In this case, this group of mafia and upstarts became the biggest funders of the school, but they wanted more than that. They often publicly opposed Angers' proposal in the elders' meeting, wanting to have more more rights.

"The Gattuso family has always wanted to build the Kassel Academy, the mixed-race university I told you about, in Italy."

Angers looked at the crowds walking on the street and children playing, and explained the current situation to Ender.

"But Kassel College cannot be established in Europe, it must be kept away from the control of the Presbyterian Church."

"That's why you came to America?"

"Yes, shortly after my last return..."

After returning from China last time, Angers was keenly aware that the Council of Elders had gradually become an obstacle to the development of the Secret Party. This ancient organization was eager for new blood, not a puppet in the hands of those old people.

So Angers gave up his actions in Europe and resolutely ran to the younger America to reduce the restrictions of the elders on him.

After some "friendly" exchanges with local mixed races in the United States, Angers joined the U.S. Army and experienced World War II. After these years of experience, he finally got back from the Presbyterian Church Legacy, became the unique leader of the secret party.

And this legacy also gave a big gift to Angers who wanted to build a school: a piece of land in the outer suburbs of Chicago.

In this way, the construction of Kassel College was finally put on the agenda, but the Presbyterian Church was arguing endlessly because of Angers' site selection, and Angers was so anxious that Angers wanted to put a knife on their necks.

"So you brought me here?"

"The Laurent family will support me. I have my own vote, plus your vote and the Beowulf family's vote. My proposal can just pass."

"I'm here to help you make up the numbers, right?"

Ender was a little helpless. As a chaotic and kind brass dragon, he was often too lazy to deal with such complicated and troublesome matters. If it weren't for the fact that Kassel College was really important, Ender wouldn't have joined any school board.

Ander and Angers walked into a magnificent foreign-style mansion. The tacky golden decorations showed the owner's magnanimity. Guided by the waiter, they went up the stairs. The two pushed open a gorgeously decorated door and walked to a in the conference room.

Six men were sitting in front of a well-crafted conference table. They were talking in low voices, but they all stopped after Ander came in, staring at Ender's Chinese face with pairs of golden pupils.

Ander was not polite to these people, he walked directly to the innermost seat and sat down, crossing his legs, as if he was the second child.

For a while, the original classical and solemn private secret will become like a fragrant hall run by gangsters on Hong Kong Island.

Looking at Ander's appearance, Ange sighed helplessly. He didn't expect this lawless dragon to obey the rules in the first place.

He walked behind Ender, put his hand on Ender's chair, and calmly introduced:

"This is Lu Ande, a member of the Huaxia Lu Family, the first generation member of the Lionheart Society, my comrade in arms, and now I recommend him to become a member of the Secret Party Presbyterian Church."

Originally, the six members of the Presbyterian Church lowered their heads. Their information network naturally knew about Ander's ability.

Although the collection of intelligence in the Far East was always not smooth, all the information showed that Ander was a warrior no less than Angers.

"But he is a yellow man, we should maintain the purity of the secret party..."

A man with brown curly hair glared at Ender and loudly objected to Angers' proposal.

"The Man of the Gattuso Family"

Ange whispered to Ender.

The next moment, a beam of light flew past, and the representative of the Gattuso family froze, his face flushed abnormally, and he began to take off his shirt regardless.

"Who else?"

asked Ender.
