Chapter 146 Boy
"Well, it does sound quite 'busy'."
Lu Mingfei shrugged and did not comment on Principal Angers busy behavior.
"So you want to be the leader of Kassel College? Lead our group of people to end the mission of the Dragon Clan." Angers put down his wine glass and stared at Lu Mingfei with a smile, "Every student in Kassel If I want to be in this position, I also look forward to you taking over my class.”
"Neither you nor I will doubt that you do have this quality and ability."
"Are you referring to the position of principal of Cassel College?"
Lu Mingfei raised his eyebrows slightly.
"You are not just the principal, you will also represent the entire secret party, and half of Europe's syndicates are your backend. Your account can mobilize capital wealth of less than 2 billion euros at any time."
"But at the cost of being a knife in the hands of the school board? I'm sorry, I haven't seen it yet, but I don't think those people would let me work for them."
Lu Mingfei said calmly.
He didn't mind being a knife - in fact the Astartes was a weapon in the eyes of the Imperium.
"In other words, if the school board shows enough charisma or courage, would you still be willing to serve for them?"
"Unfortunately, that possibility does not exist now."
Lu Mingfei shook his head. The Lamenter considered himself loyal to the Emperor and the Primarch, and protected humanity in the war-torn dark galaxy.
This school board can only be regarded as the governor of the planetary government. They can't order the Astartes.
"And without any offense intended, from what I understand from the sources, the Board of Regents hopes that the person who sits in the position of president of Cassel College is a hawk who serves them."
"Indeed, I can only be regarded as an unstable knife that is not caught in their hands." Angers shook the wine in the glass, which was more than half full. "Since my old friend Menech built this After the college, I have been the principal until now.”
"I am one hundred and thirty years old now... or one hundred and thirty-one? I can't remember clearly. Many things will change. No matter how powerful the dynasty is, there will be a replacement one day, and the next king will take charge of the power. You might become stupid."
"These people in power have more 'foresight' than us. While we soldiers are still thinking about how to gain an advantage in the war, they have already thought about how to divide the cake after the war is over."
"There must be a knife to let them know how to correct their mistakes...just like how you chopped off Henkel's kid who wanted to become a new dragon."
Speaking of this, Ange's eyes showed admiration.
"If they waste time in this interview and say such heretical words, I will not tolerate it either."
Lu Mingfei expressed his thoughts bluntly.
"They are not that stupid. Although these people are very annoying, they have to admit that everything used to slay the dragon now - including the sword on your back, the equipment department's funding requirements for researching special weapons and equipment for you... are all Wealth and capital from the school board.”
"It's not time to break up now."
Angers smiled and drank the wine in the glass.
——
It took Sleibnir about five hours to cross the Atlantic and reach Portofino, covered in heavy snow.
Lu Mingfei exhaled a breath of white air, his eyes resting on the layers of silver-white ice floes at the mouth of the far coast. There were small wooden boats pushing the ice floes with difficulty on the water, leaving black traces.
The layers of houses close to the cliff are covered with silver frost, almost blending into the mountain.
This is the beauty of my hometown. In addition to peace and delicious food, there is also natural beauty that is not polluted by heavy industry.
"The Gattuso family is equivalent to the Turkish emperor in Italy. In this bicameral republic, the nobility and civilians have legislative power and supervisory executive power, and Gattuso's shadow exists in both the upper house and the lower house. "
"If the Italian government wants to pass a policy that is beneficial to the Gattuso family, both the House of Lords and the House of Commons will pass the bill as quickly as possible and implement it quickly. In other words, they have everything they can do in this country, and they will do anything when necessary. Ability to mobilize bomber squadrons of the Italian Air Force.”
Ange gently patted Lu Mingfei on the shoulder and told him about the huge power of the school board.
"The same goes for other school directors. Each of them represents the absolute power of a part of Europe. For example, the Laurent family, who is close to me, leads the largest 'syndicate' in Europe, the leading international monopoly organization. Every thought Words can control the flow of capital in the world. Just like if I want the price of crude oil to fall today, then the crude oil in the market will depreciate to an incredible low the next day. People who bought crude oil futures around the world will owe one night. Butt debt.”
"And the school board of directors you are going to meet next are all such top figures in the world... If you put it this way, can you understand the weight of this power?"
"It's okay. They are just predators under the curtain of peace. They lack the force to maintain this curtain."
Lu Mingfei still looked calm, "They are even afraid of aliens."
"Hahaha, you are right about this," Angers smiled heartily. "They can leverage the levers of the world economy, but they can't sway a bad old man like me, nor can they sway the Dragon King who will wake up in the future."
"As a force that purifies all dragon clans, your status is equal to theirs. There is no need to fear them."
An old man and a young man walked along the stairs on the cliff towards the inside of the town. At the far end of the cliff, there was a building covered with snow that highlighted an arc-shaped outline like a white fortress.
That was the destination of their trip, and it was also the place where the "inquiry" meeting of the school board was held.
"I remember my parents are still here, right? I kind of want to meet them."
While walking, Lu Mingfei suddenly spoke.
He mentioned this at this time not because he wanted to rekindle the relationship between his parents, but just to confirm their existence as his "weakness".
This kind of plot is very common in stories. The enemy kidnaps the protagonist's parents/lover/son - and then the story that can be resolved in two pages is dragged out to a hundred pages.
If an enemy really kidnapped...well, the uncle and aunt's family should be considered weak - but Lu Mingfei believed that he would not be dragged down by this situation. He would use the enemy's heads and devout prayers to let the uncle's family find peace.
"At this time... they should be investigating ancient dragon ruins in a tropical rainforest in South America. It may be related to the sleeping place of a certain dragon king..."
Ange was a little vague and did not directly reveal the whereabouts of Lu Mingfei's parents.
"What is their personal strength?"
"Of course they are all S-level, otherwise I wouldn't have given birth to you who is also S-level."
"That sounds like it should be pretty punchable."
The two of them have reached the observation deck at the end of the winding mountain stairs, where they can have a panoramic view of the entire silver-white coast.
This side of the town was equally lively, with many children in cotton-padded clothes running around happily, throwing snowballs at each other, with smiles on their rosy faces, followed by several vigorous hounds.
A car horn suddenly sounded, and a silver-white car stopped smoothly not far in front of Angers.
Although Lu Mingfei didn't know much about this crispy vehicle, he knew from the logo of the little metal man on the front of the car that this vehicle was called a Rolls-Royce.
Ange raised his brows slightly, as if he knew the owner of this luxury car. The smile on his face became gentle and kind, and he walked to the back seat window.
But Lu Mingfei stopped.
He seemed to be feeling something and turned around, his gaze resting on the viewing platform covered by light snow - there was a boy standing there quietly.
This was a bit unexpected, and Lu Mingfei even subconsciously thought that the little devil Lu Mingze had come out to act like a monster again.
But the other party's clothes were very thin. He was only wearing a simple cotton jacket, and the flying snowflakes fell on the boy's bare shoulders.
"..."
Lu Mingfei thought for a moment, then walked towards the boy's back against the biting wind and snow.
He tentatively spoke softly: "Hello?"
He didn't feel any dangerous aura from the boy. If not, with his cautious character, it would be Jingyue Sword who greeted him.
The boy turned around - the first thing Lu Mingfei noticed was his eyes.
Although he looked like he was only thirteen or fourteen years old, the boy's eyes were filled with indescribable vicissitudes of life, as if he had witnessed the rebirth and destruction of countless civilizations with his own eyes.
The boy's face underwent multiple changes in Lu Mingfei's trance, and finally settled on an extremely handsome and perfect face, with golden hair fluttering in the cold wind, and a laurel wreath woven from laurel branches on his smooth forehead. superior.
Lu Mingfei recognized this face. In the past, when he used art to suppress his blood thirst and black rage, his brush had already painted this holy face countless times, using all his imagination to paint it.
In the paintings hanging high in the hall of the Holy Blood Hall, the perfect appearance of the great angel is integrated with the boy in front of him.
"Father?"
He knelt down on one knee to perform the Astartes salute and whispered.
The father he refers to naturally refers to the Primarch Sanctity Leth, the genetic father of the Blood Angels and all of his Astartes descendants. A ray of the great Primarch's holy blood flows in their bodies.
For Lu Mingfei, its significance was far greater than the original fusion cell that created his life itself.
But the boy didn't speak or make any other moves.
He just stared at Lu Mingfei quietly, with countless stars shining brightly in his eyes, and then dimly extinguishing.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Angers voice suddenly sounded.
Lu Mingfei was startled and raised his head to see Anger's concerned eyes.
Behind Ange was a young girl, her delicate face covered with a black veil, and her eyes as cold as snowflakes were staring at him with a bit of curiosity.
Lu Mingfei looked around and found that the boy who looked exactly like the father of the gene had suddenly disappeared...as if he had never existed.
Everything just now seemed to be just an illusion in his mind, and he was making a gesture of surrender to the air.
"It seems that you are not well adapted to the cold climate. Come and have a cup of hot cocoa in the car. It will help you recover."
Angers smiled.
"..."
Lu Mingfei stood up from the ground silently, and the snow piled on his shoulders fell back to the ground silently.
His eyes followed the snow, and he seemed to catch something, and his body trembled.
There was a pair of shallow footprints left in the snow where the boy was standing just now.
