Chapter 41 Mission
"Wait...I have a question." Gu Ye raised his head and looked at Liu Yao.

"If it's that guy in Norse mythology, will the world really be destroyed by him?"

Gu Ye remembered the information he had seen when he was tracking down Odin. According to the Norse mythology "The Old Edda", at the time of Ragnarok, Nidhogg would bite off the roots of the world tree Yggdrasil, and on that day... the world would be destroyed.

"I don't know about that... According to Norse mythology, fate begins with Urd, is measured by Beeldandi's hands, and will eventually be cut by Scoundrel's scissors. At the end of human history, the Black King Nidhogg will return. He is despair and hell, and will cover the sky with his wings covered with human bones. He is Scoundrel's scissors. On the day of his revenge, even if you are Odin, you step out of your palace with an invincible spear, but you will only embark on a road of no return." Liu Yao recalled the details of the myth.

"He might come back, and Cassel's ultimate goal is... to slay the dragon!"

"This is really an unexpected development..." Gu Ye's eyes flickered, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"If the dragons ruled in the mythological era, then they would have been killed by human hybrids long ago, right?" Chu Zihang asked the question that was in his mind after listening to Liu Yao's story.

Since humans have successfully overthrown the rule of the dragons, how could they give the dragons room to survive? Do they want to be enslaved again? And if they killed all the dragons, then the story of the two people from Kassel Academy about slaying dragons might not be credible.

"Dragons are difficult to kill, especially the noble first and second generation species. Even if you destroy their bodies, you cannot destroy their souls. They will wake up again after cocooning, and this is the meaning of the existence of Kassel Academy." Luo Li said softly.

If it were really so easy to kill dragons, Kassel Academy would have ceased to exist long ago, and it wouldn't be looking for half-bloods to join from all over the world every year.

"First generation and second generation?" Chu Zihang repeated this new term.

"The dragon clan's hierarchy is very clear. Dragon Emperor Nidhogg is the creator of all dragons, and below him are the four dragon kings created by him using the four elements." Luo Li explained.

"They are the King of Bronze and Fire, the King of Earth and Mountains, the King of Sky and Wind, and the King of Ocean and Water. The four of them followed Nidhogg's orders and ruled the world until the civil strife began."

"Civil strife...what does it mean?" Chu Zihang continued to ask.

"This is a long story. There are clear records in the library of Kassel College. You can find out for yourself after you join." Liu Yao quickly interrupted Luo Li. His partner had this problem. She always spoke her mind. If he asked her to tell him everything, would he still hire her?

"In short, over the past few thousand years, mixed-race families have united to shoulder the mission of slaying dragons. They have continuously cultivated offspring who are good at fighting, spells, magic, and alchemy, and sent them to the battlefield to slay dragons, burying the efforts of the dragon clan to revive time and time again. Until today, Kassel College has inherited their will." Liu Yao continued.

"So, that was a dragon? It looks completely different from the movie... more like a human." Gu Ye actually wanted to say that it looked more like Deadpool, but he didn't say it. Instead, he pretended not to know it. He wanted to know more details.

"No, that is Deadpool... a being that is completely contaminated by dragon blood..." Liu Yao explained.

"Generally speaking, the proportion of dragon blood in hybrids does not exceed 50%. Once it exceeds 50%, the dragon blood will slowly assimilate them into dragon followers... that is, the ugly guy in the video just now. They are left with only the desire to kill, and they are also the existence that Kassel Academy needs to eradicate in addition to slaying dragons."

Sure enough, his and Gu Ye’s guess was correct. Deadpool was transformed from humans. Chu Zihang thought thoughtfully.

"This is what a real dragon looks like. This is a fourth-generation species that was resurrected in Hawaii. The academy spent a lot of effort to successfully kill it again after it was resurrected." Liu Yao opened a picture. It was a lizard-like corpse, which looked about the size of a car. It had long whiskers around its mouth, and its membrane wings drooped weakly on the ground. It looked exactly like the legendary dragon. "I guess nothing can be more convincing than this?" Liu Yao smiled.

"That is to say... generally humanoid creatures who can use words are all hybrids, right?" Gu Ye asked tentatively. If this is the case, Odin might be just a false god as he guessed.

"It's hard to say... In history, there are many first-generation species that incarnated into humans, such as Attila the Hun... He was a dragon king."

"The clue is broken again... So besides dragons, are there any gods in the world?" Gu Ye muttered before continuing to ask.

"Huh? Junior...if gods really exist, we wouldn't have to go through the trouble of slaying dragons, right?" Liu Yao showed a helpless expression.

"In other words, you would rather believe that Nidhogg in Norse mythology really exists than believe in the existence of gods?"

"This is not a matter of belief or not, it's the fact... You have never seen a dragon, but you must have seen the Deadpool who fought with you, right?" Liu Yao stared at the two people opposite him.

"In the near future, the Dragon King Nidhogg will surely be resurrected. By then... maybe the world will really be destroyed."

"The world is destroyed..." Gu Ye frowned. The thing he was most worried about really happened.

"So, do you want to join Kassel? My two friends... no, junior fellow students?" Liu Yao stood up and extended his hand to Gu Ye and Chu Zihang.

"In this case, there is no other choice, right?" Gu Ye shrugged and placed his hand on the back of Liu Yao's hand.

Although he has no interest in saving the world, if this world is where his mother lives, Gu Ye will definitely protect it. Cassel's goal is to prevent the Dragon King from resurrecting, so there is no need for him to refuse.

"I'll join." Chu Zihang also stretched out his hand. He also had someone he wanted to protect, and... according to the information just now, Odin was either a hybrid or the legendary Dragon King. If he wanted more detailed information, he might only be able to find it at Kassel College.

"Very good, I knew you wouldn't refuse." Liu Yao said this on the surface, but he was relieved in his heart. His bet was successful this time. These two juniors were indeed passionate young people with the ideal of saving the world.

"So what's next? Take us back to Kassel?" Gu Ye asked after withdrawing his hand.

"No, now you can only be considered as preparatory students of the academy. If you want to truly join Kassel, you still need to complete some small tasks." Liu Yao said with a smile.

Finally, we are getting to the point. My hopes of graduation all depend on these two people. Although I don’t know why Professor Schneider would directly let two newcomers who have not yet enrolled carry out the task, this is also good for me, isn’t it?
 There is another chapter in the afternoon. The author is in the car now, but the update will not be delayed. Please rest assured.
