Dragon Clan: Retired Death, goes to work to slay dragons

Kassel Academy, second floor of the library, central control room.

Schneider stood under the projection of the earth, paused and meditated, his iron-gray eyes reflected countless pulsating red dots on the blue 3D projection.

Behind him, countless people were coming and going. The entire control room was dividing labor efficiently and orderly. The eyes of the specialists sitting in front of the screen of China Unicom Norma's sub-console were moving rapidly.

All kinds of confidential information were circulated, encrypted, and blocked. Countless mind maps were created, uploaded, and reviewed in Norma's information database. Those that passed were executed immediately, and those that were rejected were redone.

"Minister, the commissioner of the London branch has applied for authorization to contact the British royal family. This operation requires approval from the highest level." A female commissioner in front of the branch console looked up at Schneider.

"The task of recovering the alchemy item from the British Museum?" Schneider said without even raising his head, expressionless, "Reject the application and send the news to China Orthodox... Don't ask me about this kind of thing next time, in that museum How many cultural relics are British?”

"Minister, the local armed groups in Syria want us to exchange a batch of arms with canceled sources for the ancient coffins in their hands."

"How much?" Schneider picked up the coffee cup at hand, but the drink in the cup was not coffee, but the nutritional solution prescribed by the doctor.

When you take a bite, it tastes like slug mucus, which is bitter and disgusting at the same time, but Schneider has long been used to this.

"It remains to be discussed. The leader of the armed organization hopes to negotiate with our representatives at the Damascus branch..."

"Give them their wish, but they have to go to their main base." Schneider paused slightly and said, "Fulvio Bass will return to China tomorrow. Let him drop by. You shouldn't need me to teach you what to do, right?"

"yes."

"Minister, there is a document here that needs your signature..."

"Minister, the commissioner of the Austrian branch has encountered a little trouble. The local religious terrorist organization is making trouble and needs the tactical support of a full squad..."

"minister……"

Reports, big or small, were sent to Schneider one after another, and he handled these problems smoothly. After each report was sent to him, he could make the most correct judgment in tens of seconds.

Commissioners of the Kassel Academy are active almost all over the world.

From exploring ruins suspected to be the Dragon King's tomb in ancient tombs to drawing guns to hunt down dangerous hybrids in busy urban areas, the shadow of Kassel College can be seen in any field, including economic activities, criminal activities, and archaeological activities.

Decades of experience have made Schneider quite comfortable in handling these matters.

It has become his instinct to decide what should be kicked, what should be postponed, and what should be decided upon.

"Minister, the Shennongjia exploration team has already set off. It is led by Carlins Adolf from the branch and an orthodox team member. Your signature is required." A male commissioner wearing thick glasses said.

This time, instead of getting a response within seconds like before, Schneider, who had been immersed in flipping through documents, raised his head.

First he glanced at the male commissioner who just spoke, and then at the red dot that was constantly beating on the projection in front of him.

China, HUB Province, the western border, spans 1 10°56′ east longitude and 31°75′ north latitude.

Shennongjia, local time, 21:39.

"..."

After about tens of seconds of hesitation, Schneider slowly said: "Let the exploration team not go deep and stay on the outside to wait for support."

His words made some people in the central control room subconsciously raise their heads, with subtle expressions of surprise appearing on their faces.

The configuration of this team was arranged by Schneider. His character should not change overnight.

Unless there is someone important enough to break the principles he has always adhered to.

………………

Shennongjia is located on the western border of HUB Province, bordering Baokang County of HUB Province to the east, Wushan County of CQ City to the west, Xingshan and Badong to the south and the Three Gorges, and Fang County and Zhushan to the north and close to Wudang.

According to legend, in ancient times, Shennong led his people to find a high mountain in order to taste all kinds of herbs. However, seeing that the mountains here were steep and forests were everywhere, he thought that there must be a hidden secret of strange medicines, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed.

First, he taught the people to "build trees into houses to avoid danger", and then taught people to "build trees into ladders to help climbers". He collected 400 kinds of good medicines and wrote "Shen Nong's Materia Medica". In order to restore his life to the Emperor of Heaven, he " He built an altar of wood, straddled a crane and flew into the sky "and left."

Later generations remembered the kindness of their ancestors and called this high mountain "Shennongjia".

In the eyes of most people, "Shennongjia" is also known as the "forbidden zone" because the total area of ​​Shennongjia reaches 3,253 square kilometers, of which more than 85% is covered by forest.

The large area covered by the virgin forest, coupled with the extremely complex terrain, is enough to withstand most detection methods, including humans, drones and even satellites, so it is full of mystery.

For example, since the 1950s, there have been reports of savages in Shennongjia.

More and more teams come to Shennongjia to look for savages, but they only find some hairs and related clues. It seems that no one has ever seen a real "savage".

However, for some people, the exploration of Shennongjia has been ongoing, and the "legend" in the eyes of ordinary people is not unfounded.

Because the natural ecology and geographical environment of Shennongjia are very special, there are many small tribes in this primitive forest that have been in a primitive closed state and isolated from the world for a long time.

The tribe located at the outermost edge of this forest and the tribe that has the most frequent contact with the outside world is the tribe called the Guyue Tribe.

That night, it rained heavily in Shennongjia.

Dark black clouds coiled like pythons in the sky. After the last thunderstorm, tens of thousands of tons of water fell overwhelmingly.

The strong wind from far to near was making waves in the forest at the pace of showers, and ancient trees that were hundreds of years old stood there and were blown away.

The totem flag with the white snake on it loomed in the heavy rain and was stretched straight by the wind. The old man watching the night locked the window and hid in a chair and took a sip of hot soju.

Night vigil is just a formality. His job is more like a "forest ranger". His main job is to patrol mountains and forests, and prevent fires, digging, and hunting.

"But, in this weather, no one will come, right?" The old man muttered drowsily and closed his eyes.

No one would risk their lives to enter this restricted area in this kind of weather, and the lonely night watchman naturally didn't have to stay awake all night.

However, he did not notice that in the distant forest, the land that should have been covered with greenery was strangely growing red, pink, white and yellow wildflowers...

Finally, it gradually turned into a sea of ​​flowers.

The howling wind blew by, ups and downs like waves, countless flower branches collided, making a sound like a sea wave, and petals with a touch of fluorescence were flying.

This spectacle is like a dreamland, but there is only one girl running in the sea of ​​flowers, like an elf in the dark night.

She likes this beautiful scenery, but her father said that they will leave tomorrow, leaving the place where she was born and raised, so she can't help but sneak out to play even on rainy days.

But just as she looked into the distance, a figure wearing a long black windbreaker, a half-decayed World Tree badge on his chest, and a white raincoat gradually walked out of the rain curtain.

"Asa?" The man spoke a slightly awkward language, and frowned slightly as if he recognized the girl.

"Uncle Kalins, what are you doing?"

The girl's cheerful footsteps stopped, and she looked curiously at the uncle who was treated as a distinguished guest by the patriarch's grandfather, and at the unknown instrument in his hand that was similar to a scanner.

"Why did you sneak out again?" The man did not answer his question, but asked with a tight frown.

Before he could finish speaking, a voice came from the intercom.

"Karins, what's going on there?"

"This is Kalins. A little girl from the Guyue tribe broke in. I will drive her away immediately. The commissioner outside will take her out and let others continue to strengthen the blockade."

Kalins' tone was a little serious, but he didn't blame the team members responsible for the blockade.

On the one hand, although there are many people in their exploration team this time, the terrain is too complex, and coupled with the severe impact of bad weather, it is difficult to achieve a comprehensive blockade.

On the other hand, the girl in front of me was born and raised in this forest. Even if they have some more advanced equipment, it is difficult to say that they are more skilled than the girl here.

But after hearing what Kalins said, the girl suddenly curled her lips, then turned around and fled deeper.

"Asa!" Kalins put down the walkie-talkie and shouted in the local language, "Go back to the tribe quickly, or you will be eaten by a terrible monster!"

"Asa will not be eaten! Lord White Snake will protect Asa!"

Hearing this, looking at the girl who had run into the rain curtain, Kalins frowned and sent a message to the commissioner outside: "She ran deeper, please pay attention."

"receive."

Putting aside his worries for the time being, Kalins lowered his head and looked at the instrument.

A life-saving safety system recently launched in 2005 by the American Supervision Safety System Company - the life detector.

The instrument in Kalins' hands is a life detector that was originally intended to be used in the Greenland project, modified by the Equipment Department using the world's most cutting-edge biochemistry, dielectric, ultra-low frequency conduction and DNA technologies.

It is lightweight and only about 1 kg. It has a handheld design, is easy to carry, and is simple to operate. It can pass through various obstacles such as steel plates, cement, composite materials, and trees. The detection range can reach 500 meters in open space and up to 500 meters on the water surface. More than 1 km.

After special processing, it is suitable for various harsh weather conditions, with simple maintenance and extremely low failure rate. With a portable computer and the strong artificial intelligence of Norma, it can generate detected image and sound information, and detect the remote end through passive reception. The direction of the weak heartbeat dielectric field.

Of course, since it is produced by the Equipment Department, it naturally has the function of explosion, and the yield of the explosive is not small. It is more than enough to blow up Kalins to death.

Kalins carefully operated the instrument, looked at the slightly undulating horizontal lines, breathed a sigh of relief and reported: "Area A1 has been investigated, and there are no signs."

After that, he took out a piece of chewing gum and threw it into his mouth. The expression on his face looked a little bored.

Originally, with their orthodox style, there was no need to risk exploration.

Just wait until all the tribes leave tomorrow and blast it with ground-penetrating missiles.

Although the number of second-generation species and first-generation species combined is only a few dozen, the third-generation species, such as servant-level things, can still be seen once every few years. The third-generation species killed by their executive department only have one hand if not two. .

However, I don’t know what agreement the secret party’s senior leaders and the orthodox senior leaders have reached, and they actually asked them to capture the sleeping third-generation species alive!

Capturing a third-generation pure-blood dragon alive?

If you want to capture him alive, you have to rely on hand-to-hand combat.

If a mortal body wants to compete with a pure-blooded dragon for its body, isn't that asking for death?

Even if he is a "servant", he is still a "servant" under the "King"!

This made Kalins, who was encountering a mission of this level for the first time, a little uneasy, but he also understood the value and significance of a living third-generation species.

"I hope Secretary Schneider's call for reinforcements is more reliable." Kalins sighed deeply, and he couldn't help but think of a certain "monster" whose hometown was in China.

If Professor Jiang could come here, he should be able to capture the third generation species alive, right?

He hasn't been on a mission with an S-class yet, but he has heard some from others.

"That bumbling guy from the orthodox faction is said to be an S-level hybrid. I don't know how he compares to Professor Jiang." Kalins thought to himself.

I hope that guy can really suppress the third generation species, otherwise he can only rely on so-called reinforcements.

"This is Area A2. An abnormality has been discovered! An abnormality has been discovered!"

Just as Kalins was thinking, a thunderous voice suddenly sounded from the intercom, instantly breaking the dead silence of the forest on a rainy night.

Kalins lowered his head subconsciously and looked at the waveform frequency band of the instrument.

Is this...the sound of a heartbeat?

However, the displayed waveform was relatively stable, which made him relieved and even gradually became excited.

That guy is still in a dormant state. As long as it doesn't disturb Him, it can be brought back intact.

But at the next moment, his expression suddenly changed.

The waveform that was originally as gentle as a hill suddenly became like a steep peak, and the sharpness at the top was like a sharp sword, piercing Kalins' panicked heart.

"This is area A2, the target frequency and peak value have changed! Repeat! The frequency and peak value have changed, and the target has awakened and recruited!"

Sure enough, another commissioner's voice came over the intercom.

No, apart from him, the specialists responsible for the investigation work, whether it was Area A that was first discovered, or the other Areas B, C, and D, all saw the target frequency and peak value of the mutation in their instruments.

Click!

At this moment, a gust of cold wind blew by, and the sea of ​​flowers swaying in the rain instantly drifted away, fluorescent lights flashing, with a bit of eerie beauty.

Kalins took out the Desert Eagle from his waist and pointed it in the direction of the subtle sound.

But when he looked into the rain curtain, his face couldn't help but twitch, and he felt the hairs on his body standing on end.

"FUCK! I hate snakes the most!"

All he saw was that the pale golden snake eyes lit up, and the white snakes stared at him, hissing and spitting out scarlet letters. (End of chapter)
