Chapter 236: Practice more food
Late at night, on the top floor of the principal's office.

A desk lamp, eight bone china cups. Eight figures sat around a huge desk, in the darkness where the light could not reach. The wind blew the fallen leaves across the roof, as if countless ninjas were sneaking across the roof. No one spoke for a long time, and the atmosphere was mysterious and changing, like the white steam overflowing from the tea in the cup.

"It's been a long time since it's been this lively here." Angé raised his cup and greeted the students in front of him.

"It's an honor for you all to attend my night tea party. I'll make it short. We can't carry out large-scale operations in China, so there won't be any strong firepower support. This mission requires your joint efforts to complete."

"That should have nothing to do with me, right? I'm just a G-level student!" Finkel was the first to raise his hand and speak, without any sense of shame for having been demoted to the unprecedented level of 'G'.

"Then you guys chat first, I'll go back to sleep."

"Sit down!" The vice-principal pulled out the belt on his trousers and tied Finkel tightly to the chair in a lightning speed. Then he sat down in his original position with his trousers held up.

"After all, I was the one who taught you. Please don't embarrass me!"

"If I go there, I will embarrass you, right?" Finkel looked at the vice-principal pitifully and even squeezed out a few tears, as if he hoped that the vice-principal would show mercy.

"Your intelligence investigation ability is necessary, so don't shirk it, Finkel... You are also a crucial part in this mission." Angé sighed.

"Don't give me that! I'm not a young man like them. As long as I don't fail the exams next year, I can graduate as a specialist in the executive department. Then I can fly around the world to carry out missions with my sexy junior sisters. I'm not that stupid. I'm still young... I shouldn't die here!" Finkel turned his head away with a look of being a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water.

"Do you really think that you, an unprecedented G-level student, can graduate successfully?" The vice-president laughed coldly.

"Are you planning to use this to threaten me? This is so sad!" Finkel widened his eyes.

"Then I might as well continue to repeat the grade. Anyway, I don't believe that you will never let me graduate."

"Of course I will let you graduate, but this is the best opportunity for graduation, an opportunity that the board of directors can agree on. If you miss this time, will you ever get such a suitable opportunity again?" Angers began to persuade you patiently.

"No, no, I won't go to die!" Finkel shook his head frantically.

"You don't need to do anything. You just need to provide them with intelligence clues as an investigator. In addition, the Hunter Forum has offered a reward of 100 million US dollars. If you complete this mission, the Gattuso family will give you the same reward." The vice-president said.

"What?! The same reward? You should have said it earlier... I've always wanted to slay a dragon and serve the academy." The expression on Finkel's face changed, and he looked so flattering that Lu Mingfei couldn't help but look away.

"You'd better..." The vice-principal complained and stopped talking, instead looking at Ange.

"In that case, I will start arranging the tasks." Angé coughed lightly and continued.

"This mission is divided into three groups. Gu Ye and Xia Mi are in one group, Chu Zihang and Lu Mingfei are in one group, and Chen Motong and Caesar are in one group. And Finkel, you are the logistics support for all of them. Do you understand?"

"Apart from financial assistance, doesn't the school board have any other response?" Gu Ye asked.

He was not surprised that he was grouped with Xia Mi. As early as before she entered school, Xia Mi's Word Spirit Wind King's Eye had been recorded by Cassel. That time he and Xia Mi cooperated to kill Ron, and Ange must have known about it.

But what he was more curious about was, did Angers simply let the Gattuso family go? Just let them pay a little money and settle the matter? This was not like his style.

"Not only that... they also agreed to give up Fenrir's skeleton this time and continue to hand it over to the academy for safekeeping." Angé smiled and looked at Caesar.

"Of course, the ultimate goal is to hope that Caesar can join the hybrid monarch plan."

"Tsk... I knew it..." Caesar frowned. He hated this kind of self-righteous arrangement from his family.

"Don't be impatient, Caesar." Angé smiled.

"Although I agree, I have also decided to expand the Half-Blood Monarch Project. Everyone who comes to the principal's office this time will have the opportunity to participate."

What a good move! Even though he had known this for a long time, Gu Ye couldn't help but sigh that Angers was really an old fox. According to his approach, the efforts of the Gattuso family were basically making wedding clothes for Angers.

Although the goal was successfully achieved, Angers could also use this opportunity to give other candidates the chance to participate in the experiment. After all, it was the Gattuso family who broke the rules of the game first, and they couldn't say anything.

In this way, even if Caesar succeeds, if one or two of the others succeed as well, Cassel will still be independent and will not become a weapon of the secret party.

Just imagine, how can the Gattuso family, which only has one half-blood monarch, compare with the Cassel family, which has two, three or four half-blood monarchs? Moreover, sufficient samples will eventually make the cultivation more perfect. Even if the resources are diluted, the number can completely crush the dragon clan.

Not to mention that the Gattuso family has already given up Fenrir's skeleton, so there will be no shortage of resources. The academy already has enough funds and materials to train more mixed-blood monarchs.

Gu Ye was sure that the Gattuso family knew about it, but even if they knew, they would not stop Angers. After all, Angers could easily reject the Gattuso family's request, because Gu Ye was only in doubt about the stability of his bloodline.

As long as Fenrir, the King of the Earth and the Mountain, is killed again and his bloodline doesn't run away, all doubts will be shattered. The other families have tacitly agreed to Angers's sneaking away, and only Gattuso disagrees. This is a complete conspiracy. If you want to break the rules, then everyone should break them together, and that will be fair.

"Half-blood monarch?" Others who didn't know about this plan showed the same puzzled expression, and Angé began to explain.

After a while.

"That is to say... each of us has the possibility of further advancing our bloodline?" Chu Zihang spoke first.

"That's right, you are all carefully selected outstanding talents. Whether you can enter the plan depends on your performance in this dragon-slaying mission. So there is no need to feel ashamed of the Gattuso family's actions, classmate Caesar. Your selection criteria are the same. In other words... this is an absolutely fair trial." Angers said as he looked at Caesar.

"Thank you, Principal. I understand." Caesar nodded, and the grudge in his heart finally dissipated.

"Next you can go to the equipment department to select equipment, and go directly to China tomorrow. I have already arranged the tickets for you." Angé said.

"Oh, by the way... Lu Mingfei stays, and everyone else can go back." With Ange's order, everyone left one after another, leaving only the uneasy Lu Mingfei.

"Principal, why did you keep me here?" Lu Mingfei raised his head and asked Ange.

"I want to give you something..." Ange clapped his hands, and the vice-president beside him left with his pants lifted up, and came back with a box and placed it on the desk. "This is... the seven deadly sins?" Lu Mingfei couldn't help but ask. The seven deadly sins were given to him by Lu Mingze, and after killing Norton, they were taken away by the academy for research, and now they were taken out by Ange again.

The principal and the vice principal each took out a bronze key, inserted it into the locks on both sides of the box, and turned it at the same time. There was a faint sound of gears turning in the box, and the metal teeth biting each other slowly retracted, and a small crack appeared in the box. The dark gold light flowed along the crack, and for a moment it seemed as if the desk lamp had dimmed.

The vice-president pulled up a hidden button, and with a clear sound, the internal mechanism slid out, bringing out seven swords of completely different shapes. The black gold-colored blades showed various patterns of ice silk, pine needles, flowing clouds, and flames under the light.

"We guess that it was forged to kill the other first-generation species. The seven weapons correspond to the different weaknesses of the seven kings: pride, jealousy, rage, laziness, greed, gluttony and lust. Norton will judge his seven brothers with his ultimate achievement in alchemy. The ancient Hebrew on its outer wall translates as, 'The blood of the king shall end with the sword!'" said the vice-president.

"Looks familiar, right? This is what you used before. Come... wake them up and try to pull them out again." Angé said to Lu Mingfei.

"I understand..." Lu Mingfei took a deep breath. He seemed to know what Ange wanted to do. At this moment he had to prove that he had the ability to operate this weapon.

He bit off his finger without hesitation, held up the bleeding finger so that everyone could see the drop of blood, and then slowly smeared it on the knife box. The blood quickly filled the inscription on the knife box.

With the blood soaking in it, it came alive, as if there was a heart beating in the knife box, not just one, but seven. Seven swords woke up at the same time, and seven different heartbeats mixed together, some like loud bells, some like rapid drums. The surface of the knife box revealed dark red vine-like patterns, just like its blood vessels, the beating heart was sending manic blood to its whole body.

Lu Mingfei grabbed the shortest rib fork, 'Lust', pulled it out easily, and inserted it on the desk.

"Go on..." said Ange.

So Lu Mingfei continued, the second Taotie, the third Greed... until the last one named Han Bafang, he reluctantly let go of his bloody hand.

"I'm sorry, Principal Ange... I've tried my best." Lu Mingfei shook his head.

"It's okay, kid. You have proved that you can use this set of knives. Now they are loaned to you. I hope you won't let me down." Angé smiled, his face full of admiration.

"Thank you, I will make good use of them." Lu Mingfei nodded, folded the box and put it behind his back.

"It's incredible that you've made such rapid progress." The vice-principal didn't speak until Lu Mingfei left.

"He has begun to awaken. Is it because of his participation in killing the Dragon King? Or is it because of... that guy?"

"Whatever it is, it's not a bad thing, right?" said Ange.

"Did you notice that the Pride was actually awakened by Lu Mingfei, but he was not strong enough to pull it out. What a pity."

"I always feel that it is not fair to this child to forcibly arrange his life," said the vice principal.

"This is also Lu Lincheng's choice. As parents, we have no objection. Who are we to interfere? What's more... we still need him to end the prophecy." Angé sighed.

"Whether it's him or Gu Ye, they are all gifts from God. We are old, my friend."

"Yes... I'm old now and can only rely on this group of young people." The vice-principal nodded, as if agreeing with Angers' statement.

On the small road leading to the equipment department, Caesar and Gu Ye walked side by side, and on the other side of Gu Ye were Chu Zihang and Xia Mi.

"Speaking of which, what did Principal Ange say to you at the end of Valhalla today? You don't even mind that Percy offended you before." Caesar asked curiously.

He went back after talking to Gu Ye and did not hear the conversation between Angé and Gu Ye.

"It's probably what I just told you. In addition, I was reminded not to push the Gattuso family too hard. The academy still needs money from the board of directors. Otherwise, we will all be left with nothing. They can't even provide me with the funds to renovate Norton Hall." Gu Ye shrugged.

"No wonder you have no opinion at all..." Caesar showed a look of understanding.

"No, no, no, you misunderstood. It's not just because of this. In fact, I also hope that you can become strong enough to defeat the Dragon King without me." Gu Ye shook his head.

"Why do you say that?" Caesar was very confused. Didn't Gu Ye want to be strong alone? How could he be willing to agree to such a plan?

"Who knows? Maybe it's because I haven't had an opponent for too long, and I'm a little lonely?" Gu Ye smiled.

But Chu Zihang felt something was not right. He always had the feeling that Gu Ye was arranging their future for them, as if Gu Ye would leave at any time.

"Don't listen to his nonsense. In fact, the main reason is that Principal Ange promised him that I would move to Norton Hall." Xia Mi said suddenly.

"Huh?!!! No way? Principal Ange really agreed?" After hearing Xia Mi's words, the first one who couldn't help but laugh was Finkel.

He glanced at the beautiful Xia Mi, then at Gu Ye, the grief and anger on his face almost overflowing.

"S-rank has this kind of treatment? This is so unfair! I also want to live with my junior sister!"

"Then you better work hard and perform well in this mission." Chu Zihang complained.

"Who can do that? I'm not one of you perverts... It looks like I can only wait until I graduate and use my identity as an executive specialist to pick up school girls." Finkel said with a bitter face.

"If you're a rookie, just practice more..." Gu Ye laughed and made a strange gesture to Finkel, and everyone laughed.

"With this, I should be able to help Brother Gu without relying on Lu Mingze, right?" On the way back to the dormitory, Lu Mingfei stroked the cold box and felt a little more relaxed.

I don’t know when Lu Mingze will appear, but it doesn’t matter...the set of knives that can kill the Dragon King is still there.

Come on! Lu Mingfei!
Silently cheering himself up in his heart, Lu Mingfei quickened his pace. He no longer expected Lu Mingze's response. This time he decided to really rely on his own efforts.
