Chapter 101 Nibelungen
"I never thought that professors at Kassel College could sometimes act as naughty as kids." In the student dormitory, Gu Ye was lying on the bed with a laptop in his arms. This was provided to him by the college. In order to facilitate his research, his slender fingers were typing on the keyboard while Gu Ye tilted his head to chat with Chu Zihang.

On the other side, Chu Zihang was sitting upright with a thick stack of files on his legs. He frowned and kept flipping through them. Only half of the files were left, but he still hadn't found what he wanted.

"After all, you are the first S-level in these 40 years. It's normal that you are in high demand." Chu Zihang didn't have the habit of leaving others out in the cold, so he paused slightly and replied to Gu Ye in a low voice.

It was already afternoon, and four hours had passed since the two of them had gone to the restaurant for lunch. Of course... Chu Zihang and Gu Ye had only spent about ten minutes eating during these four hours, and the remaining two hours were spent by several professors arguing in the restaurant.

Professors Guderian and Schneider were discussing things calmly at first, but later on, they became more and more excited and started exposing each other's secrets, which satisfied Chu Zihang's gossip addiction.

Gu Ye originally wanted to persuade the two professors, but President Angers stopped him with a smile. According to President Angers, they often did this before, it was harmless, and they could just treat it as a discussion of academic issues.

Since the principal said so, Gu Ye could only nod. After a long debate, Gu Ye and Chu Zihang were finally planned to become Schneider's students.

It's not because Guderian is not as eloquent as Schneider, the main reason is that Gu Ye and Chu Zihang's fighting talents are indeed more suitable for the executive department. However, Principal Angers also compensated Professor Guderian, and the next S-level will be given to him to teach.

After hearing this information, Gu Ye was very curious. After all, there had been no S-class people for a long time, but now there were suddenly two. He really wanted to know the strength of the other S-class. However, Principal Angers refused to reveal more and just told him that he would know later.

"From what the principal said, there are still other S-level students. I just don't know if he will enroll with us. By the way...is there any progress?" Gu Ye didn't really care about the S-level title. He was more concerned about the additional things.

According to the task assessment by Principal Angers, Chu Zihang was rated A-level and Gu Ye was rated S-level. Norma also officially entered their information into Cassel's system.

As the two people completed the difficult task before entering school, they also received generous rewards. In addition to a scholarship of 10 US dollars each, Principal Angers also promised to meet a small request of the two.

Chu Zihang chose to check the files of the Execution Department. His A-level authority did not find any information about Chu Tianjiao in Kassel College, but Chu Tianjiao mentioned the Execution Department. Chu Zihang also found in the school files that only the Executive Department specialists had the right to go out on missions at will, so he planned to start the investigation from this aspect.

As for Gu Ye, he asked the principal to give him priority in arranging missions when the dragon clan appeared, including the Dragon King... After all, if he wanted to study in the academy in the future, he might not have the freedom to travel around the world as he does now.

Principal Ange naturally did not refuse his request, or rather was very surprised, and readily agreed to Gu Ye's request, and even allowed him to use the dragon-slaying mission to make up for the lack of credits in future classes. It can be said that he is now the freest person besides the principal, after all, even professors are sometimes unable to get away from teaching.

"Still investigating...but I have a feeling that there might not be any gains this time." Chu Zihang answered while flipping through the files. Judging from the way his fingers were tightly holding the files, he was not in a calm mood.

"I just used my S-level authority to check all the information about Odin in the academy, and found almost nothing except the Hall of Valor and Odin Square in the academy... It was as if everything that happened was a dream." Gu Ye sighed. They went to Kassel Academy with great effort, but in the end, they found nothing.

Chu Zihang didn't say anything, but stubbornly continued to look through the files about the executive department members until he turned to the last page, then he reluctantly closed the file. Just like Gu Ye said, all this really seemed like an outrageous dream.

After that incident, Chu Zihang went to the Black Prince Group to investigate, but just like now, he did not find anything about Chu Tianjiao. It was as if that man was completely wiped out from this world. No one cared about his disappearance, no one was sad, and no one was curious.

The boss of the Black Prince Group did not express any compensation to the family, and soon he got a new car and a new driver. Only Gu Ye and Chu Zihang, who had experienced that rainy night with him, still remembered him, as if he was just a product of fantasy.

"Didn't find it?"

"...No." Chu Zihang moved his lips and took a long time to say these two words, as if he had used up all his strength.

"I have some new discoveries." Gu Ye got up from the bed and came to Chu Zihang with his laptop.

"Dragon Clan Ruins?" Chu Zihang read out loud as he looked at the organized information on the computer screen.

"That's right. Take a close look at the academy's dragon history materials... If the academy has been mainly focused on slaying dragons for thousands of years, why have they never found any ruins left by the dragon clan? Don't you think it's weird?" Gu Ye stared at Chu Zihang.

"I have seen dragons with my own eyes. They definitely exist in this world, but where are their nests? Legend has it that the King of Bronze and Fire once enslaved humans and built a bronze palace, but why hasn't it been discovered yet?"

"You mean... they hid these things? Just like the disappeared Atlantis civilization?" Chu Zihang thought.

"That's right! If our ancestors said that an ancient civilization suddenly disappeared, then maybe they were indeed shocked by the glory of this ancient civilization. Now some people are searching for the lost Atlantis all over the world, but all they found are some ancient human settlements submerged by sea water. The real ancient civilization may be hidden in another dimension, and to go there, some special method is needed." Gu Ye nodded.

"Is it similar to the feeling of a parallel space?" Chu Zihang thought of the anecdotes often published in scientific magazines. There were rumors that some people all over the world accidentally broke into a parallel world. This was indeed somewhat similar to the experience of the two.

"No, the world of dragons cannot be explained by science. You need to believe in magic." Gu Ye opened another web page and pointed at the title on it.

"Nibelung, the Land of the Dead..." Chu Zihang read out the title, with a thoughtful look on his face.

There is a legend among alchemists that to make gold, you must first kill silver, and to make a sharp sword, you must first kill steel. Killing matter is generally difficult to achieve, but there is an exception, that is, Nibelung, the land of the dead.

Dead matter is everywhere there. An alchemist once described that country: "There is no day or night. There is always a half-dark, half-bright light floating in the sky. The ground and mountains are bronze, made of dead soil and metal. The sky is gray, made of dead air. The flames are cold blue, made of dead fire elements. Water cannot float anything because water is also dead. There are cities there, built with the bones of dead lives. The fifth element, 'spirit', is enriched in it, and can be used to refine the legendary 'philosopher's stone'."

This is the place that alchemists dream of. The dust in the Nibelung gold is priceless to them. It is even rumored that a ring made of Nibelung gold has the magical power to rule the world.

"Don't you think the viaduct that day is very similar to the legend? It seems that we have no concept of time there, and the people around us have disappeared. If we are in the Land of the Dead, then everything can be explained. The concept of time does not exist in the Land of the Dead, and living people cannot enter, so there is no one else except us." Gu Ye said softly. "Are you saying that we are actually dead?" Chu Zihang raised his head expressionlessly and looked at Gu Ye.

"How is that possible? Ordinary strangers really can't get in, but if Nibelungen is the dragon's lair, then they definitely have the right to invite others in. After all, have you ever seen a homeowner unable to open his own house?" Gu Ye rolled his eyes at Chu Zihang. He didn't expect that he also had a talent for telling jokes.

"Then according to your speculation, this Odin is very likely a dragon?" Chu Zihang had seen hybrids before. Compared to the hybrids he had seen during this period, Odin was indeed too strong. If he was a dragon, then that would explain it clearly.

"Not just a dragon clan, it might be a dragon king. The ability to control water elements seems like it can flood the entire world at any time." Gu Ye recalled the details of the battle with Odin and spoke. If he didn't have the Ultimate Skin Experience Card at that time, he would probably have restarted in one round.

"The authority of all Dragon Kings is at the level of world-destroying, so it is a very easy thing to make a person forgotten by others. And judging from this situation, the mission Uncle Chu is carrying out is related to the Dragon King, so it is normal that there is no information about him." Gu Ye's thoughts became clearer and clearer.

"Is that so? That is to say... our current level is not high enough to access such top secrets." Chu Zihang put down the file in his hand. If it was the Dragon King who could destroy the world, novices like him and Gu Ye were indeed not qualified to investigate. Even the professors were not qualified. After all, this was a matter concerning the survival of mankind.

"So it doesn't matter if we can't find it now. As long as we keep getting stronger, we will find the trace of Nibelungen one day." Gu Ye patted Chu Zihang's shoulder and comforted him.

"I understand. Thank you, Gu Ye." Chu Zihang nodded to Gu Ye. He was very fortunate to have a reliable friend like Gu Ye.

"Oh yes...there is one more thing." Gu Ye looked at Chu Zihang again as if he remembered something.

"Principal Angers just sent me an email. He said that if we are willing, we can enroll today. By the end of summer vacation, we will be freshmen in Kassel. What do you think?"

"I want to wait a little longer." Chu Zihang answered after thinking for a few seconds.

"Nibelungen was discovered in China, so maybe we still have a chance to find the entrance again. If you can't find it, I'll just enroll again. I'm only a sophomore now, right?"

"I knew you would say that." Gu Ye smiled and showed him the reply email he had written.

"I have applied to the principal. We will stay in Shilan for another year. During this period, if there are any dragon or hybrid missions around, we can handle them together with the executive specialist. This should increase the probability of finding Nibelungen, right?"

"It turns out that you know me best." Chu Zihang sighed softly.

"Don't! What you said is too gay. I just want to spend more time with my mother and Xia Mi. After all, I may not see them for a whole year in the future." Gu Ye said embarrassedly.

He doesn't have any ambitions to save the world, he just wants to protect the people he cares about, so he cherishes every day with them.

"Is this the feeling of falling in love?" Chu Zihang rarely teased Gu Ye. He remembered that this guy laughed at his exaggerated smile when he pretended to be a pregnant woman.

"Old Chu, you, a single guy, will never understand the feeling of being in love." Gu Ye showed a trace of pity on his face.

"You'll understand when you find someone you like." As he spoke, Gu Ye walked to the suitcase and began to look for something.

"It's almost time, shall we go have dinner? I'm going to look for the beef sauce my mom gave me. I've been missing her food for a while. Do you want to try it too?"

"Thank you then..." Chu Zihang's mouth curled up slightly. He got up from the bed and looked at Gu Ye's busy back.

Gu Ye is really an amazing guy. He never says too many words of comfort, but he can use some daily things to calm his originally sad mood.

On the other side, in the principal's office.

Ange looked at the battle video between Gu Ye and the red dragon, thought for a moment and then pressed the delete key. This was recorded by the camera left in the secret room by the Torrio family. He had asked Norma to destroy the other copy, and now there was only this original copy.

After deleting the video, Angé opened Gu Ye's profile and filled in the words "Bronze Throne" in the column of his Words and Spirits.

"Haha~ It's not common for a principal to cheat. What will the school board think if they find out about you doing this?" A familiar voice came from behind him. Angé turned around and looked at the old cowboy in front of him.

"No matter what kind of spirit he is, he can't be a dragon. His deep murderous intention towards the dragon clan cannot be faked. Cassel now needs a unique genius, a leader, a dragon slayer that even the dragon kings fear. One is enough! Just like my friend Menech Cassel." Angé whispered.

"But cultivating talents requires a free environment, and I don't want to put too many restrictions on him."

"Is that so? Then they are also your training targets?" The old cowboy looked at the computer screen. Chu Zihang, Caesar Gattuso and... Lu Mingfei, the information of the three was neatly displayed in front of him.
