Lu Mingfei Development Program

Chapter 446: Sisters on the Bronze and Fire Thrones
Lu Mingfei was a little confused and couldn't figure out what the situation was for a moment.

The bronze tables in front of me exuded a warm atmosphere, and the four corners of the tables were engraved with cloud patterns and birds and beasts. The obvious Han Dynasty style indicated that this was an antique, but it was so exquisite that it didn't look like something created more than 2,000 years ago.

That's right, this is the territory of the King of Bronze and Fire, it is not surprising that any metal would undergo unreasonable changes here.

...However, the tables were covered with fine porcelain cups and tea bowls, and the Metal Queen, a combination of Omega and the Dragon King, was pouring water for him, which was another story.

Constance put down the pot and held the teacup in front of Lu Mingfei with both hands: "Bronze City was badly damaged, and we could only find these things in a hurry. Please forgive me for the poor hospitality."

“…No, I’m already surprised that you invited me to sit down with you.” Lu Mingfei subconsciously picked up the warm teacup.

The green tea leaves floated on the steaming tea, exuding fragrance. Even someone like him who didn't know much about tea could understand the preciousness of this tea. He also knew how precious this tea, which could be drunk in one sip, was in the Nibelungen, where the elements were depleted.

The bronze city that had been destroyed beneath them had a distinct oriental style. Constance, who was sitting opposite Lu Mingfei, was still in her Omega-like posture, but the way she held the pot and served tea had some of the gentleness that was unique to oriental women.

This scene did not make people feel out of place, but rather harmonious, as if an ancient oriental noble lady was entertaining guests from afar.

However, this lady is not an ordinary noble lady, but the princess who rules over the Nibelung.

Constance poured herself a cup of tea, but when she was about to drink it, she paused and put it down. Lu Mingfei looked at her silently, a little curious, with her current life form, did she still need to eat?
But Constance obviously would not answer his question. She looked at him silently and said, "My sister said that if the visitor has no ill intentions, it is not a bad idea to offer a cup of tea."

"I'm a little surprised." Lu Mingfei took a sip of tea and couldn't tell what it tasted like. He then looked at Constance and said, "I thought I already knew something about dragons, but seeing you and your lifestyle really surprised me."

Since we were chatting, we had to act like we were chatting. This lifestyle that was somewhat unexpected to him was a good topic of conversation.

"I know what you're talking about." Constance saw his doubts, looked around the desolate world, and sighed, "In the history of dragons, my sister has always been considered the most brutal of all the kings."

Lu Mingfei nodded and said, "It can be seen that this is a slander."

"No, this is the truth." Constance replied, "Sister is the eldest sister among the kings. If we cannot convince the others with force, our other brothers and sisters will have some ideas."

She glanced at Lu Mingfei who was choked and continued, "But my sister also likes to create. This bronze city was created by her based on the temple that humans built for us."

“Really?” Lu Mingfei didn’t know how to respond so he could only say that.

"In fact, among all the kings, my sister doesn't hate humans." Constance continued, "Although the characters they created don't have the magical power of dragon characters, they have beautiful fonts, and she likes them very much."

As she spoke, she gently picked up a stack of rough yellow paper. The handwriting on it was clearly visible, in beautiful Han Li script, as if it was written by a dignified girl. Like the bronze table they were using, it was an object from thousands of years ago.

Compared to seeing water in the element-depleted Nibelung, perhaps the most surprising thing is that a stack of rough paper thousands of years old could survive the fire that almost burned down the world.

Constance stared at the paper in a daze, stroking the surface of the paper with her fingers, wondering if those metal fingers could feel the touch of the paper.

She continued, "When I had nothing to do, my sister taught me how to write, saying that it would help me cultivate my character. Jörmungandr was right. In ancient times, I was not fit for battle. The greatest function of this bronze city is to protect me."

Lu Mingfei was a little surprised. The kings were at the top of the dragons. Even if they were the least good at fighting, they could suppress the dragons below the dragon king just by bloodline. To let such an existence cultivate their character, this sister of Constance was really a bit strange for dragons.

"What a wonderful sister she is." He exclaimed sincerely.

Hearing Lu Mingfei's praise, Constance's metal visor glowed with pride: "Yes, sister is the best sister in the world."

She was a dignified princess just now, but when she heard someone praising her sister, she couldn't hide her overflowing pride. Lu Mingfei smiled. Although the princess in front of him was both an Omega and a Dragon King, she was still more of a girl.

The previous judgment turned out to be correct. Constance was influenced by her sister, and her fighting spirit was obviously not as strong as that of other dragons. She was indeed a person who could be communicated with... as long as Xia Mi was not involved.

This was also Lu Mingfei's headache. When it came to Xia Mi, he naturally couldn't back down. But he couldn't treat Constance like he treated Izanami. Who could bear to kill a polite princess who would treat him with tea?

After drinking the tea in the cup, Lu Mingfei looked at Constance, paused and said, "Lona Tang, she seems to have picked up the remains of your dragon servant..."

"Why did you suddenly mention humans?" Constance interrupted him, her voice a little cold, "I forgot to tell you, it's my sister who doesn't hate humans, not me. My attitude towards humans is the same as the other kings'."

Lu Mingfei looked at her silently and said softly: "What I want to say is that she is my friend. The grudge between you and the other dragon kings is your business. Don't involve her."

Constance suddenly fell silent and turned her head away: "...You reminded the wrong person. A mere human being is not worthy of my attention."

"Really? Then I was too talkative." Although he said this, Lu Mingfei almost laughed out loud in his heart.

The change in her emotions is too obvious. It's hard to make out any expression through the metal visor, but she looks like she's trying to hide something but can't. She's really an easy-to-understand girl.

"I also have something to say to you." Constanze suddenly looked at Lu Mingfei, "I hope you can stop interfering in the feud between Jörmungandr and me."

Lu Mingfei answered without hesitation: "That's impossible."

He looked at Constance and said seriously, "You may not know it because you just woke up, but the world is now suffering from an unprecedented crisis, and the end is approaching. Although it is not appropriate for me to say this, I think you can put aside your grudges for the time being, wait until the crisis is over, and then sit down and talk in detail. How about that?"

"That's impossible." Constance answered him with the words Lu Mingfei had just said, "For me, the day my sister died, the end of the world had already come."

Lu Mingfei sighed as he looked at her who had become indifferent. Although communication is easy, stubbornness is also stubbornness. It is still a little unrealistic to convince a dragon king with words alone.

Constance stopped talking, and looked as if any further questions would not count as answers. Seeing her like this, Lu Mingfei also stood up and said goodbye.

He stood up on the ruins of the Bronze City and glanced sideways at the body of the Dragon King protected by the ruins. It seemed that Constance came back here to protect her sister's dragon bones. "Ruo Dun?" Lu Mingfei looked at the source of the grievances between the Dragon Kings and said softly, "I really want to meet you in person."

……

The cold wind blew away the hot dust on his body. Lu Mingfei looked around and was surprised to find that he did not return to Chu Yuwei's home, but appeared on the top floor of a building.

He walked to the edge of the building, looked down at the city below, and confirmed his location, the top floor of the Regent Hotel.

"As expected..." he said softly, then took out his cell phone and called Chu Yuwei to report that he was safe.

When the call was connected, he said, "I'm fine."

Hearing his voice, the other party also breathed a sigh of relief: "I know, where are you? I'll pick you up."

“No, this place is quite close to my home.” Lu Mingfei said, then he remembered something and added, “By the way, tell Chen Motong to thank me. She helped me a lot this time.”

"If you want to say thank you, why don't you say it to me in person?" Chu Yuzhen's phone seemed to be taken away by someone, and Chen Motong's voice came over, "Fortunately you are okay, otherwise if I lost you, I would never be able to hold my head up in front of them for the rest of my life."

The "they" they were referring to were, of course, Chu Yu-ni and Lucrecia, one was her roommate and best friend, the other was a friend she had known since childhood. This relationship, which did not exist in the old world, made her feel quite fresh even when she felt powerless to complain.

"Thank you." Lu Mingfei said with a chuckle.

This time, Chen Motong did bring her a surprise. He entered the Nibelungen, the King of Bronze and Fire, with his body. The mark left behind allowed him to enter again without going through Xia Mi.

Regarding this, he had no plans to tell Xia Mi yet. Constanze's attitude towards her was to fight to the death, so before finding a solution to ease the feud, it would be better not to let them meet.

"Please don't torture me." Chen Motong seemed to have recovered well, and his voice was not as weak as before. "This time you helped me, and I am also saying thank you to you."

"I have some idea about your scar," Lu Mingfei said. "If nothing unexpected happens, I may be able to erase the mark left on your body."

The person on the other end suddenly stopped talking, and after a long while he replied, "...Really?"

Lu Mingfei paused. Although he couldn't see the other side of the phone, he seemed to sense a hint of unhappiness in Chen Motong's tone.

He hung up the phone with an inexplicable look on his face. Chen Motong's attitude made him feel a little strange. Putting away his phone, Lu Mingfei decided not to think about this matter first. There was another important matter waiting for him to confirm.

He stood at the edge of the building, and the sickle weasel left his mind. The invisible spirit followed the cold wind and sneaked into a room in the hotel.

The room was completely dark, but it couldn't block Kamaitachi's sight. Lu Mingfei's other words had undergone significant changes after evolution, and so had Kamaitachi. It was not only Lu Mingfei's ears, but also his eyes.

The shallow breathing seemed to indicate that the person on the bed was not sleeping peacefully. Lu Mingfei asked Kamaitachi to get closer and take a look. It was indeed the case. Rona was not only sleeping restlessly, but her sleeping posture was also very bad.

Come to think of it, for a girl living alone, who would she show off her beautiful looks to when she sleeps?
Lu Mingfei couldn't stand it anymore, so he controlled the sickle weasel and pulled the quilt that was kicked aside over to cover the confused netizen who was still wearing shorts and a vest. Constance's attitude towards Rona was quite subtle in her words, as if she didn't want them to invest too much energy in her.

He was also happy to see this. No matter what role her online friend played in this incident, it would be best if everything was safe and sound... But looking at Constance's appearance, this expectation seemed difficult to achieve.

"Good night." Lu Mingfei asked the sickle-itachi to say good night and then called it back.

Unexpectedly, when Lu Mingfei came down from the rooftop, he saw Patsy who looked a little nervous.

"I'm so glad you're safe." Seeing that he was indeed here, the head maid breathed a sigh of relief, with a relieved smile on her delicate face. "I received a call from Miss Chu, saying that you were missing, and I heard from her that you had been here before, so I wanted to come and take a look."

Lu Mingfei looked at her, and with some concern, he reached out to wipe the sweat off her forehead. Patsy didn't seem to realize how out of control she was.

He sighed: "Don't worry about me. Similar things may happen a few times in the future. You can't be so nervous every time, right?"

Lu Mingfei had overlooked one thing. His evolution was even above that of all the kings. He could survive in the Nibelungen where no living creature could survive with ease, and he could chat and laugh freely as a dragon king with an Omega body.

Apart from the doomsday which might come in some unknown form, there seemed to be nothing in this world that could make him feel a sense of crisis.

...But the girls around him don’t know.

Lu Mingfei didn't know how to explain evolution and doomsday to the girls. It didn't seem to have any effect other than making them more uneasy.

Izanami once told him that if he chose to face the end of the world, he should go forward alone. He could be a million troops, but at the moment of the end of the world, he would only be one person.

"It will probably be very late if we go back now, so let's just rest here today." Lu Mingfei said. Lucrecia booked the top floor of the Regent Hotel and handed over the management of this place to Patsy after she returned.

Speaking of which, as the theoretical male owner here, he has never stayed here for a night.

"You asked me to keep an eye on Miss Lucrecia's movements. There's news coming from the family." Patsy, who had regained her proper demeanor as a head maid, suddenly said.

Lu Mingfei glanced at her and found that she looked a little hesitant: "What's wrong?"

Patsy paused for a moment, and led Lu Mingfei into Lucrecia's suite, then said, "They seem to have discovered an Omega tomb."
