Chapter 649 Brass Ball

The deafening bells, the bright sunshine in the afternoon, countless people crowded in Kassel College. In a corner of the stairs in the library that was not illuminated by the light, the girl holding the escalator with her left hand gasped softly as she climbed the stairs and rushed to the corridor on the second floor.

The door to the main control room was pushed open. Su Xiaoqiang was the last one to rush into the library. When she pushed open the door to the main control room, everyone turned to look at her. There were about twenty to thirty people in total. They are all wearing neat autumn school uniforms with meticulous collars and cuffs, and their faces are serious and their eyes are serious.

The blue 3D projection of the earth in the control room was suspended in the air, with red dots pulsing steadily and making warning sounds. At first glance, she glanced over and saw that there were many people she knew in this room, such as Kai, the president of the student union. Sa Gattuso and the president of the Lion Heart Club, she and Lin Nian's old schoolmate Chu Zihang, not to mention a few familiar freshmen such as Qilan and Ling whom she met during the 3E exam.

It is worth mentioning that Lu Mingfei was also among them. He always stepped in and came earlier than Su Xiaoqiang this time. He just didn’t know why he was on the side of the student union. The cat looked a little timid next to the red-haired witch. Being timid, he also looked up at Su Xiaoqiang and moved his throat. He probably wanted to say hello but didn't dare to make a sound, so he could only slightly raise his palm to his waist and move his hands to indicate.

"I heard the bell, and Norma sent me an email on her mobile phone asking me to report." Under the gaze of these eyes, Su Xiaoqiang swallowed slightly, feeling like a graduate who was late for the interview and might be criticized at any time. He was scolded and chased out, his voice was a little softer, but at least he managed to stand up straight without any stage fright.

"That's an emergency call signal. It's normal for freshmen not to know. We don't have much time, so we get in position quickly!" Under the projection of the blue earth, Professor Manstein stood at the front of the control room, looking back at Shanshan. The late Su Xiaoqiang's expression was stern and no longer as kind as before.

Su Xiaoqiang took a breath slightly and noticed the solemn atmosphere. She was about to find a seat to sit down when she saw Chu Zihang standing as straight as a javelin behind his back at the Lion Heart Club. Behind him, a beautiful girl with long black hair was gently talking. He waved to her to come over. It was Su Qian, leaving a special place for Su Xiaoqiang beside her.

Su Xiaoqiang trotted over without making too much noise. Several core members of the Lion Heart Club who were present knew this little celebrity in the college. They nodded to her and moved aside to let her pass. When Su Xiaoqiang stood next to Su Xiaoqiang, the girl also whispered He spoke, "I went to your dormitory to look for you but couldn't find you. I originally wanted to call you via text message, but then I remembered that we haven't exchanged mobile phone numbers yet."

"I'm sorry." Su Xiaoqiang apologized softly.

"There's nothing to be sorry for. This was my mistake, but you're not late now." Susie said, "Or you're just in time."

Su Xiaoqiang just wanted to ask what the situation was now, and what the emergency situation reminded by Norma's email was. Before she could ask, the teak bookshelf on the high wall moved away on both sides, revealing a giant screen of a hundred inches. , the screen suddenly lit up, and a bronze dome with complex patterns appeared on it.

The blue earth disappeared and was replaced by a three-dimensional simulation image. Everyone in the control room took a breath. They recognized what it was. A small city made of bronze!

"This is a recording asking for help. This is the Monyach. I am the acting captain Jiang Peijiu. I need your help right now. At this moment, two members of the executive department are trapped in the dragon ruins (Jiang Peijiu sent the recording Shi Yaji did not board the ship, but Lin Nian and Long Shi broke out of the water). We just obtained important information from there, but the mechanism was triggered and the road in and out was blocked. We suspect that the photos you see now are The map of the Bronze City, but it is recorded in the form of dragon script encryption. We need someone among you to resonate with it." A woman's voice sounded in the control room, somewhat intermittent.

All the students leaned back slightly for this audio, because they all heard the terrible thunder in the background of the audio and the roar of unknown creatures hidden under the noise of the heavy rain. It was a cry that did not belong to any kind of beast in the biological world. It's like the shocking roar that doesn't exist in the world, made by the friction of a cello and a leather glove in "Godzilla".

Dragon roars.

A sudden sense of fate fell on everyone. For students like them, the Dragon Slaying Battle was far away from even the elite students. Even the past presidents of the Lion Heart Club had experience in being assigned by the Executive Department. The most dangerous missions I have ever done were to hunt down dangerous hybrids or Deadpools. The real war with pure-blooded dragons would never be the turn of students like them who had not yet become official commissioners to intervene.

Opposite the remote recording just now is the real dragon-slaying battlefield. Right now, at this moment, somewhere in the world, the hybrids of Kassel Academy are fighting with dragons in a bloody battle.

Caesar and Chu Zihang looked at each other in the crowd on the left and right sides of the control room, because they both heard the noisy waves and the noise of heavy rain and lightning behind the human voice, which meant that the area on the opposite side might be far away. They are thousands of miles apart and dozens of time zones apart.

How many places are so far apart from Illinois in time zones? China or Japan? Or somewhere deep in the Pacific Ocean?

In addition, there is only one important person missing in the control room, and the person who should be there most. They may have guessed some information that the execution department did not specify.

"There are 13 students, 12 'A' level, 1 'S' level, and 27 professors. Everyone is here." Manstein looked at the director of the execution department in the shadow beside the console.

Von Schneider walked out of the shadows, carrying the familiar oxygen tube trolley behind him. His iron-grey eyes glanced at everyone in the control room and said hoarsely, "I won't say more. Professor Jiang Peijiu has already recorded the scene. In some cases, we have explained it clearly. We have about fifteen minutes (Ye Sheng’s oxygen storage when the recording was sent). The time required to crack the new dragon text is too long. Our greater chance can only be pinned on you. Someone in it resonates with it, just like the 3E exam.”

"I think the stronger the bloodline, the more obvious the resonance effect will be." Caesar raised his hand and said calmly.

"Exactly, that's why you are sitting here." Manstein nodded, but he found that Caesar did not sit down, and other students also looked at him quietly.

"." Manstein glanced at Schneider, who looked at Caesar expressionlessly and nodded, "As you might think, the reason Lin Nian is not here is because he could not arrive at the scene. He is at another scene. !”

There was an uproar in the control room. People who knew that Lin Nian disappeared two or three days ago were only slightly surprised after it was confirmed. The dragon in the previous recording was roaring. Was it that Lin Nian had angered the other party and was fighting each other?

The fight between an 'S' class and a pure-blooded dragon is truly a thrilling scene that makes people's blood boil just thinking about it.

"The 'S' class didn't decipher the map directly at the scene. Does this mean that even the 'S' class can't resonate with these dragon texts? Then why can we?" A freshman raised his hand, and when Norma saw his The bloodline rating is 'A', but apart from the professors, who among the mixed-bloods sitting here is not an 'A'-level bloodline?

On the other hand, if someone puts an alchemy bomb in the console and detonates it now, it is possible that all the blood of the next generation of the secret party can be directly cut off, ushering in an era of indigestion among young European mixed-races.

"The purity of bloodline has a greater impact on the intensity of resonance, rather than the probability of resonance. The words left by the King of Bronze and Fire belong to his "reasons". If there are any descendants of him among us, the bloodline is pledged to Norton." pulse, then the probability of resonance may not necessarily be lower than the 'S' level, but may even be much higher." Schneider explained calmly.

Among the crowd, Chu Zihang raised his head slightly, but not many people noticed his movement, except for a few core members of the Lion Heart Society, such as Su Qian.

"We're running out of time," Schneider said.

All the students took their seats in order, and their student ID cards were swiped in the permission card slot next to the operating desk. The Norma announcement of "approved" sounded, and a giant cyan dome spliced ​​together from photos appeared on the big screen and on each student. On the tablet computer behind the desktop in front of me, someone's exclamation of exclamation could be heard vaguely in the corner. It was probably some unnutritious words like "How fucking advanced."

"Do you have any clues?" Su Qian beside Su Xiaoqiang asked Chu Zihang in a low voice, but Chu Zihang just stared at the screen in silence and frowned.

Several core members of the Lion Heart Club also cast expectant glances. Chu Zihang's bloodline is the strongest among them, but another reason for being optimistic is Chu Zihang's speaking ability. There are very few people in the academy. Yan Ling, who knew that the president of the Lion Heart Society happened to step on No. 89 with a dangerous bloodline.

The word spirit named "Jun Yan" is the power that the King of Bronze and Fire is most proud of. Basically, the pure-blooded dragons of that line are more or less skilled in using this power. At the limit, it can explode with no less than The most powerful conventional missile warhead in mankind. Chu Zihang's possession of this speaking spirit naturally means that his bloodline can be traced back and he has a certain degree of connection with Dragon King Norton.

Perhaps the person in this room who resonates most easily with these dragon texts left by Norton is Chu Zihang. Regardless of whether the Lion Heart Club can more powerfully overwhelm the student union in this opportunity, it is just for Lin Nian and Lin Nian in the battlefield. The desperate commissioners must use all their strength to stare out something.

There was a heated discussion among the professors, but they also deliberately lowered their voices for fear of affecting the group of students. Their bloodline was not as good as these students, but they were richer in experience. They used their abundant dragon culture to brainstorm and decipher the words in dozens of minutes. There may be no progress in Long Wen for several years. This is a matter of trying to catch the moon in the water, but now everyone is sweating on their foreheads, and no one is relaxing at all because of the impossible difficulty.

Su Xiaoqiang was naturally infected by this atmosphere, but what made her even more tense and ugly was the fact that she realized that Lin Nian was at the remote recording full of storms and dragon roars at this moment!

Lin Nian never mentioned to her what he was going to do when he left the academy, nor how dangerous his usual job in the executive department was. It wasn't until this moment that she realized that this boy had always been a problem for her, including when she was leisurely living through her academy life now. If you are not careful in the ever-changing dragon-slaying battlefield, you will be in a desperate situation.

How to resonate?

She stared at the screen for a while but felt nothing. She looked up and saw the students around her who were staring at the screen motionless. Professor Manstein and Schneider were also discussing in a low voice among the professors about Lu Mingfei. He looked around like her, as if they were all superfluous.

A little unwilling, she thought to herself, but there was nothing she could do.

She lowered her head and stared at the screen. The vine-like words were familiar yet unfamiliar. She seemed to be able to see some similarities with the dragon texts in the 3E exam, but if she followed the context further, she could find essential differences.

On the contrary, those who memorized by rote in the 3E exam were all dragon texts that represented the spirit of speech, but now they had a map in front of them, which was something that Feng Ma Niu didn't want to take on.

She couldn't help but think of those "accidents" that happened to her during the 3E exam. Maybe now is the time to repeat them again? But what should she do? I heard someone say that she fell asleep after answering the questions during the 3E exam. Can't she just lie down and take a nap right now?

Su Xiaoqiang was worrying about himself. The air pressure in the room was a bit stuffy. No one among the students spoke. Caesar and Chu Zihang's brows were about to boil, and the others were also anxious.

Fifteen minutes is usually enough for someone to play a game or preview a textbook, but now it seems like a ignited line of fire that is about to burn out in the blink of an eye.

But no one saw that in the corner of the classroom, the second 'S' class who had been ignored was poking his head. He seemed to be hesitating about something serious. The degree of confusion on his face was comparable to holding a love letter in his hand but not daring to hand it out. .

—

Yangtze River, Three Gorges.

Lin Nian went into the water, put on his last diving suit, and brought two compressed air bottles that could last for an hour. The "Rage" from the Seven Deadly Sins was straddled on his back. The moment he entered the water, Ye Katsu's "snake" connected to him through a conductor of water.

"Here is Ye Sheng"

"Stop talking. Rescue is on the way. Save your energy. You probably don't have much oxygen left. Stay as still as possible in the water and use your last energy to maintain the snake's communication." Lin Nian said, "Brass Is the can still with you? Try to keep your answer to two words or less."

"exist."

"Are there any visible exits around?"

"No."

"Confined environment? Briefly describe the appearance of the space you are in, whether it looks like a palace or an arena. The Bronze City Map Headquarters is analyzing it, but I need to locate it."

"I'm in the library."

After squeezing the last of his energy and launching "Floating Life", he instantly shifted to the front of the Bronze City. Amidst the roar of the machine, Lin Nian heard Ye Sheng's answer and suddenly paused. He pressed the earphone to confirm, "Library?"

"There are many bronze pillars around me, pillars similar to the 'Ice Sea Fragments', which should record the alchemy peak of Norton's life and other dragon secrets." Ye Sheng said a lot of words in one breath this time, "Except for Huang Besides the copper pot, I also found something on the tallest bronze pillar."

"What?" Lin Nian asked.

"A brass sphere, made of the same material as a brass can." Ye Sheng's voice was so weak that he couldn't hear it. "The snake can't sense what's inside, but it should be important."

"Bring that sphere, I will find you as soon as possible." Lin Nian had an idea in his mind, but he did not dare to have high expectations.

"Be careful around you." Ye Sheng whispered, "'Snake' told me that there are some scary things in Bronze City and he has been lingering near me."

ps: I will quietly update a chapter and recommend a book from a friend, "I was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan" by Meng Mi, a Japanese swordsman novel that is a serious drama. It is interesting to compare with the Kenshin live-action movie, and the protagonist's system is awesome. ! It has the style of a typical drama, without any bugs of explosive force expansion, and the setting is reasonable. Readers who like Rurouni Kenshin and similar styles can check it out!
