From the pure blood dragon clan, I started to become a human being

Chapter 239 Elizabeth Palace

The sky was slightly cloudy. The special plane arrived in Moscow. Jiang Yuan and Laurent arrived at the famous Red Square. The city spread out in a majestic atmosphere. Behind the high-altitude clouds was the golden sunset at dusk. Looking around, the surroundings were slightly hazy. Gray, and decorated with majestic churches and gilded domes.

There are uniformed soldiers patrolling back and forth in the square not far away. On the other side is the colorful Assumption Cathedral of Basil. A girl with long platinum hair is standing at the door of the church, as if she has just finished a game to kill time. I was visiting an exhibition, and there were several luxury cars from the 60s parked behind me. The internal modifications on them could easily pass the relevant inspections on the grounds of repair.

The girl looked about fourteen or fifteen years old, with a petite figure. She was wearing a slate-gray coat and brown high-heeled boots. She had long, bright platinum hair, her skin was as white as ice and snow, and her eyes were as calm as water.

"Fortunately, it was almost dark."

Laurent smiled and came forward to say hello. Since the first cheek-to-cheek greeting failed in her life, she was ready to shelve this way of greeting forever. Fortunately, someone's temperament has always been like this, so she didn't feel too embarrassed.

"You two can stay in the Elizabeth Palace during your stay in Moscow. When I come back, the Elizabeth Palace will be closed to visitors, so you don't have to worry about anyone disturbing you."

Laurent nodded, and then couldn't help but look sideways at someone with slightly lowered eyelids. Zero and Mescal were both large icebergs that could sink the Titanic. The difference was that the latter was more ruthless. Since he got on the special plane The other party has been in a state of wandering, probably trying to understand the new knowledge of alchemy.

Zero's ancestors can be traced back to Elizabeth Petrovna, also known as Elizabeth I. She was the daughter of Peter the Great and Catherine I. After the new era, part of the original palace was returned to Romanov Descendants can regain the right to live in the palace as long as they have sufficient financial resources and are willing to open it to visitors when they are away.

Because of the name Elizabeth and the help he provided in the first place, Laurent had a pretty good impression of the little girl in front of him.

Unexpectedly, Zero took the initiative to reach out to someone. Although the cold expression made this behavior more polite, this was already a very rare thing.

Laurent's eyes suddenly narrowed.

Jiang Yuan's attention returned from the Kingdom of God plan, and he stretched out his hand to shake the opponent's hand, and then continued to apply the existential power to cover his own abilities, and then continued to study the methods and steps for the integration of consciousness and the fragmented world.

He had been shadowing Lu Mingfei for a while when he was in Shilan High School. After all, although that guy looked like a loser, his pocket money was really not that small. It depends on who he compared with. Anyway, he could spend all his time in an Internet cafe in a few years. The living standard of Kuan Ye, a high school student, is definitely much better than that of himself who had just escaped from the shell and had to make a living on his own. However, this was mainly because he was not dangerous. Due to his brother's personal tendencies, Lu Mingze couldn't do anything to him. .

During the mission of monitoring Chu Zihang, the holder of the Odin mark, his identity as a pure-blooded dragon may arouse the vigilance of the nanny group, and collaborating is his consistent strategy to adapt to the environment, whether it is the winery, the empire, the magic world, or even In the King of Earth and Mountain camp, this policy is implemented very thoroughly.

Ling nodded slightly. When the other party let go of the unknown cover, Yan Ling·Jing Tong clearly captured the Dong-Ghost-Mingzhao-Vajra world's Yan Ling chain. However, it can no longer be copied. The other party's bloodline is compared to several There was a qualitative improvement two years ago, and the upper limit is unknown.

Of course, this indifferent temperament is the most critical clue to confirm identity.

Jingtong is a rare non-aggressive spiritual high-risk word spirit. It can analyze objects, etc., and copy most dragon clan's word spirit knowledge to apply it. The limit is third-generation species and hybrid S-level, and it is a special word spirit.

"Long time no see." Zero said with a hint of greeting, and then led the two of them into a special car. The stretch car had a lot of space inside, and there was also a simple wine cabinet and a car refrigerator.

Laurent thought for a moment, and after confirming that Zero was not talking to him, he asked in surprise: "Do you know each other before?"

"There has been cooperation." Jiang Yuan summed it up succinctly.

"He had already shown outstanding talent in related fields before becoming a master of alchemy. Moreover, Mezcal's reputation is now well-known in the mixed-race world." Zero casually found a reason.

Laurent clicked her tongue, and then continued to use the sand ball to exercise her control. The current progress was no different from a few hours ago. She expressed doubts about whether she could succeed within five days.

The Red Factory is not far from the Elizabeth Palace, and the special car arrived in a short while. Along the way, you can see the remnants of the past glory, castle-like ancient buildings, open squares, towering monuments, and fountains like artillery arrays. , there are occasional traces of the Romanov dynasty, such as the marble sculpture of St. George slaying the dragon, and the palace, which is closed to visitors, is closed, with two soldiers guarding the ancient building at the door.

"Miss Laurent, I have something to ask you."

After getting out of the car, Zero said, as for someone, he has his own palace to be entertained by the real owner.

Laurent glanced sideways at someone, and when he saw the other person nodded, he readily agreed. This was a good opportunity to learn about Mescal's past.

Without any servants to guide him, Jiang Yuan entered the palace and walked up the spiral wooden stairs. The fourth floor was extremely spacious. The ceiling was as high as a venue used to hold large-scale events. Paintings by famous artists decorated the walls and corners. Several buildings around it Orange flames burned in the fireplace, and the temperature continued to spread, resisting the brutal cold in Moscow after winter.

At the end of the long table in the middle, a slightly childish-looking boy sat down. He was wearing a crisp black suit and tied his silk scarf slowly. His bright golden eyes seemed to illuminate the darkness in the corner. , leaving no room for hiding.

"It seems that my decision to come here was correct. You can really hide it." Lu Mingze picked up the knife and fork and elegantly cut the steak. At hand was precious red wine that was like blood. The other party also spared no effort in enjoying it.

"It was just a temporary job at the beginning." Jiang Yuan calmly pulled out a chair and sat down, "a glass of mezcal."

"I guarantee your satisfaction." Lu Mingze snapped his fingers, and a bottle of mezcal, which had been a national gift, appeared on the dining table.

"You no longer mind being in public now. It seems you are confident. What do you think? Do you want to give it a try?" Lu Mingze sent an invitation to fight. The opponent was one of the few people he admired and recognized. For the power and power of dragons , those who understand and practice it are rare even among ethnic groups, and most of them just succumb to the innate violence.

"You can't die now." Jiang Yuan took a sip of the wine. He had the resurrection of March of the Dead once a day, the status refresh of the combination of existential power and astrology, and the reversal spell that he could use at will after leaving the body of the cursed spirit. Among them, the astrology of the main world has been used a lot, but there are still 32 times, which is enough to support several death battles.

Lu Mingze: "..."

No amount of strength or weakness can change your stubborn mouth.

"I want to know the purpose of your coming here." Lu Mingze put the cut beef into his mouth. Somewhere here involves Lu Mingfei's end point. To put it simply, it is a forbidden area. This is where he received zero. The reason why he came immediately after hearing the news was that the opponent already had the ability to disrupt the situation and plans, and there were actually many chess players making moves in Moscow.

According to the continuous reports from the assassin member of the Dark Side Monarch Council, namely Mai Shutoku, the participants in the super soldier project that were launched here include the grand leader, the secretary-general and Anthony. Zero's year-end friend Vatukin is the person in charge of the project and is currently in charge of the project. On the verge of being liquidated, Su Enxi, the "black gold swan" behind the Romanov family, promoted them to become the largest financial oligarch in the North. However, Vatutin lost everything during the change. As for the Romanov family because of their relationship behind the scenes. , it has not been greatly affected in recent years.

"I need a sufficient number of samples of the leech potion." Jiang Yuan was not interested in the food on the long table and just drank the wine. "Rejuvenation is very valuable. If the leech potion can really do it, I look forward to the principle behind it. The result of combining it with the universal elixir.”

Lu Mingze smiled, obviously not believing this reason, but the sense of danger brought by the other party was infinitely close to that of the first-generation species. In an equal dialogue, it was not easy to force him to explain if he did not want to. At this moment, only the spiritual body was attending the banquet, and the real The physical body was nailed to death in the safe haven in the northern no-man's land by the original part of Gangnir. Without a suitable body to display the power of Word Spirit and Balance, it would be difficult for frontal combat to pose a fatal threat to the opponent.

As for those weird methods, he even suspected that the guy across the long table had approached Norton in the field of alchemy, and the results might not satisfy him.I don't know when a detailed map of Siberia appeared on the tablecloth on the long table. Lu Mingze raised his knife and drew a line in the air. A thin line divided the map into two halves from the upper section.

"Don't cross the boundary, otherwise our past friendship will be destroyed. For my brother's sake, we can live in peace. The secret party has reduced the scope of Baidi City to seven. You are so ambitious. The horny guy should be interested in the King of Bronze and Fire. I won't make trouble on the Dragon Bone Cross issue, but you have to help me with something. It won't harm your own interests. At most, it can be regarded as a small favor. ." Lu Mingze said.

"Speak." Jiang Yuan gestured to the other party to explain the contents of the transaction.

"Let my innocent brother fall into despair. He was originally a real monster, but he had to put away his minions and become a waste. As a younger brother, I have a headache. I will arrange the details. You just have to sit back and watch at the critical moment. Or just help secretly, we are not interested in Dragon Bone Cross."

When Lu Mingze mentioned Lu Mingfei, his face turned a little pale because he thought of the fat man with the same name as him. As for the dragon bone cross, they didn't need it because the power and power were always in Lu Mingfei's hands. The problem Yu Shaizai was unwilling to pick it up. Even if he got the Dragon Bone Cross, he would at most just find a hidden place to store it to prevent those monarchs from getting it.

If the already strong monarch takes a step further and if there is a new tyrant in the world, the latter is definitely more cost-effective. This is the relationship between quantity and upper limit. The only difference is the person who holds the power, his former temporary worker. It's both reckless and stubborn, so it's hard to evaluate.

Jiang Yuan thought for a moment and replied, "Okay."

The script about Lu Mingfei has actually been written a long time ago, and now it is just fine-tuned according to the variables. As Lu Lincheng and Qiao Weni are two S-class children, the one who suffered from Hilbert Jean Angers The expected star of tomorrow used to be in charge of the secret party's most elite observer, Chu Zihang's father, Chu Tianjiao. However, the S-class has more than one mission, and any emergencies in the surrounding areas will be handled by Chu Tianjiao.

Two invitations appeared on the table again. If there is no order from superiors to advance the time, the Kalominsk Manor will hold a jewelry sale on the second Sunday of January every year, and all the sales will be given to the local children's foundation afterwards. The price of any exhibit will not be less than one hundred thousand dollars, and the host is Alexander Bunin.

"The meeting point for the leech potion auction is at the Kalominsk Manor. Zero will not act together with a dangerous guy like you. I wish you all the best."

Lu Mingze ignored most of the rest of the dinner, took off his silk scarf and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Jiang Yuan put away the invitation to the auction, drank the mezcal and then destroyed the bottle to avoid leaving any alchemical elements. The dinner lasted less than 5 minutes in total, but it was equivalent to a visit to the dock to clarify the bottom line and purpose of both parties. Avoid unnecessary conflicts.

There were still seven days before the auction. Jiang Yuan stood up and left the fourth floor of the palace. Zero was still taking Laurent to visit Elizabeth Palace. This building with the same name as Laurent occupies a large area.

"Mezcal?" Laurent asked when he saw someone coming downstairs.

"An acquaintance." Jiang Yuan replied expressionlessly.

The two of them had already visited the bedroom. In the middle were two large golden beds, covered with huge golden-green bedspreads. This bed alone looked like a noble tent of a Mongolian prince, with flames rising from the surrounding fireplaces. There are vacuum-packed disposable silk nightgowns and bath towels in the closet next to it, and the mural on the dome depicts a certain legendary epic of conquering a dragon.

"Other empty rooms that meet the standards have not been cleared out yet. There were dozens of tourists visiting here three hours ago. You only gave me this time, so I can only forgive the poor reception." Zero said in a calm tone, The Romanov family heir was her false identity. In fact, when she received the call, she was still hunting Su Enxi's unruly business rivals. She temporarily changed her plan and directly kicked in the door to kill the target and then forcibly retreated. Only then did she reluctantly Rush back to Moscow.

"It doesn't matter. Laurent clasped his hands and hung them in front of him. He turned around and asked, "You won't do anything strange, right? "

"If short-term pleasure will harm the development prospects of common interests, then it is something that needs to be avoided and is absolutely undesirable. Controlling desires and maintaining reason is the gift of intelligent creatures. Of course, even if you are dim-witted and actively invite me, I will stop this. This is a short-sighted behavior, don't let desire pollute our pure interest relationship." Jiang Yuan said slightly, compared to providing pleasure, the other party provided greater value in cooperation, and he could not accept being with a half-bald man. Domestic cats communicate deeply.

Laurent: "..."

She somehow sensed a hint of disgust.

"There are relevant tools in the locker next to the bed. You can do whatever you want as long as you don't leave them in the corridor."

Zero provided a preparation plan for the worst case scenario, and then took the two of them to visit the study and ballroom. A long time ago, the candles in the Elizabeth Palace were kept day and night, and the guests would often attend banquets at dusk, and then wait until dawn. Will leave, and it will be the same the next day, singing and dancing extravagantly.

The ballroom is located on the first floor. Jiang Yuan looked around and asked directly: "Can you move all the debris out? We need a training ground."

"Yes, but please reduce the damage to cultural relics. The paintings on the wall are probably orphans. I don't know the details. Many of them were purchased in batches at auctions." Zero replied. The maintenance of Elisabeth Palace was the responsibility of others, and she only had to live in and maintain the identity of the Romanov family.

After getting permission, the housekeeper and cleaning team came to the scene, carefully dismantled the murals and moved them into the storage room. The expensive tables and chairs were also carried away to create a venue that could accommodate large-scale dances, covering an area of ​​more than half the size of a football field.

The heavy red-painted wooden door was closed, and there were only two guests left in the ballroom. Jiang Yuan threw the black clothes he got from nowhere to Laurent and said, "Change into your training clothes, and then attack me with all your strength." If you can use it to hurt me, you can give different levels of rewards depending on the situation. The minimum guarantee is the bloodline stabilization plan mentioned before."

The reward mechanism can stimulate individuals' subjective initiative and is widely used in all walks of life. Practice has proven that this method is very effective. Since he agreed to become an S-class person, he did not intend to fool him. As for the bloodline stabilization plan, he did not cheat. I mean, dragon blood baptism is one of the best ways to solve the problem of the degradation of mixed-race species. The combat power of the third-generation dragon race dolls is not highly dependent on blood. Just bleeding a little will not hurt the root.

Laurent immediately became serious when he heard this. In the mixed race world, strength is naturally the most critical factor in determining status. Any behavior that can improve strength deserves great attention.

With a calm expression, she took off her upper body casual clothes, revealing her smooth and flat abdomen, with clear lines on both sides, all the way down along the muscle veins. Her lower abdomen was slightly bulging near her hip bones, and then suddenly tightened and dropped, waiting for the gray trousers. When he also landed on the ground, his ivory-white legs were actually a bit dazzling under the dim light. After being barefoot, his cardamom-like toes were red and round, and the curves at his ankles were very three-dimensional and bony.

When black clothes are worn on the body, a clear sense of weight emerges on the body surface, which is far more than ordinary clothes. However, the texture is unimaginably soft and comfortable, and the tight silk threads can well retain the body heat emitted, even if you walk directly on the snow. It won't feel cold here, the only problem is that it may not be very friendly in summer.

"Let's start." Jiang Yuan said.

After Laurent finished preparing, the long blood bags originally tied to the two forearms suddenly burst and flowed into the palm of her hand, turning into a huge dark red sickle. She could clearly detect the time it took for the weapon to condense this time. It's a second or two faster than before, and the training on one's own control has begun to bear fruit.

Adjusting the center of gravity, the force flows from the waist and hips to the feet. The moment it touches the ground, Laurent rushes forward quickly, and at the same time, the dark red sickle slashes diagonally from top to bottom, trying to force the opponent to retreat with a wider attack range, and then fight for it. to take the initiative.

Seeing this, Jiang Yuan suddenly took a few steps forward. He easily grasped the upper part of the sickle shaft with his right hand. Then he stretched out his left leg and pushed lightly to the side with his right hand. Laurent was immediately tripped to the ground. The blade of the scythe was right behind her opponent's head as she stepped forward. She pulled hard and was dodged.

Jiang Yuan stood up and pushed the back of the knife gently. The end of the knife shaft directly hit Laurent's abdominal cavity. The severe pain made her almost unable to breathe, but the sense that she had not completely lost allowed her to understand that the weapon had been released.

"The intention is clear and the moves are stereotyped. You probably have an excellent teacher, but you haven't been able to turn your skills into instinct. Learn to be beaten first, until you can maintain your sanity and fight back effectively."
