Chapter 198 Little Misfortune and the Alchemy Matrix
So handsome.
This was the first thought that popped into Lu Mingfei's mind.
The boy who appeared to rescue the little unfortunate looked like a beautiful character from an anime. The hem of his long black trench coat swayed in the wind, and his face was so handsome that even girls would feel ashamed when they saw it. It was the kind of character that people would subconsciously associate with A type like a fox monster.
But you clearly know that he is definitely not a fox monster. After all, the boy's heroic spirit is so dazzling, perhaps because he uses the sword as a weapon. He has a temperament similar to Chu Zihang's, unstoppable and indomitable. In this way , he probably has some reason why he must wield the sword.
As for the reason?
Lu Mingfei looked at the boy who stood up for the unlucky little boy who had never been masked.
Inexplicably, I feel like his back looks a bit like a superhero in an anime. Why?
Naturally, Lu Mingfei would not recognize the people who came forward as small town residents.
After all, Centralia is an American town and has nothing to do with Japan. Those people just spoke in Japanese, not to mention that they sounded really friendly to Lu Mingfei.
Wait, Japan, who appears in Centralia at this time, is also here for the Iron Throne?
Lu Mingfei thought of the eight Sheqi families mentioned by the principal.
…………
With these guys who were not easy to mess with come forward, naturally no one would come to block Xiao Xiao's unlucky way. She successfully ran into the hospital and then disappeared around the corner of the stairs with ease.
"Upstairs is the ward."
Zero said.
She has already finished inquiring about the information, as for the result.
Lu Mingfei saw the girl lightly shaking her head.
This means, no?
Is there no record of that strange disease half a century ago?
"Hello."
It's Chinese.
Lu Mingfei was slightly surprised.
He could actually hear Chinese in a distant town in Pennsylvania, and it didn't come from his teammates in the team.
It's really strange.
Turning around, he saw the boy who had just come out to help the unfortunate boy, stretching out his hand towards him.
He smiled like a nobleman drinking sake alone under the cherry blossom trees on a moonlit night.
"Graduate of Kassel's level 03 advanced training class, Yuan Zhisheng."
He said to Lu Mingfei.
"Finally I meet you, S-class."
"oh oh."
Lu Mingfei shook hands with him generously.
"Hello, senior, my name is Lu Mingfei. I didn't expect to see Kassel alumni here. What a surprise."
The two of them let go, and Yuan Zhisheng gently opened and closed his palms to relieve the soreness and numbness.
"S-class is truly worthy of its reputation."
Yuan Zhisheng nodded in greeting.
"I'm sorry, I was abrupt."
"no problem, no problem."
Lu Mingfei said nonchalantly.
"I understand the courage of a strong man."
Yuan Zhisheng didn't know how to answer the call.
Didn't they just use the handshake to compare their grip strength?
What does it have to do with the strength of a strong man?
Although he seemed to have heard similar words in anime.
But the young man in front of him was an S-level man. He had defeated Chu Zihang and Caesar head-on. He couldn't be considered an anime nerd.
The little boy came down dejectedly.
There was a good-looking girl following behind.
With this pace and movement habits, Lu Mingfei seemed to see the shadow of Mai Shutoku in her body.
Ninja?
A naive companion?
Sure enough, the girl walked up to Yuan Zhisheng and whispered something.
Yuan Zhisheng nodded.
At this time, Little Bad Luck stopped.
She stood in front of Yuan Zhisheng, lowering her head and groping for something in her cloak.
Soon, she took out a hamburger wrapped in paper, held it in both hands and handed it to the boy.
Yuan Zhisheng looked into the little unfortunate eyes.
"Is it for me?"
he asked in English.
Little Bad Luck didn't say anything, just handed the burger to Yuan Zhisheng.
"Thanks."
Yuan Zhisheng said with a smile.
"But no, please don't take what happened just now to your heart."
I don't know if the little unfortunate didn't understand what he said, or if he was just stubborn.
She stuffed the burger into Yuan Zhisheng's arms, turned around and ran away.
The little figure had very odd jobs and disappeared at the entrance of the hospital in a short while.
Yuan Zhisheng held the burger and shook his head.
He turned to Lu Mingfei and said goodbye.
"I'm sorry to excuse you, but we still have a mission to do."
"By the way, let's talk about the mission."
He smiled at Lu Mingfei.
"If you encounter my incompetent partner this time, please show mercy to S-class men."
Lu Mingfei looked at the two men standing behind Yuan Zhisheng on the left and right like door gods.
"It's easy to talk about."
He cupped his fists.
The boy in the black trench coat turned and left.
The female ninja and the two door gods bowed deeply to Lu Mingfei and followed him.
He heard the voices of the two guys who looked like they were not good people shouting and bickering in the wind.
The female ninja stood beside Yuan Zhisheng like a shadow.
Partner?
It seems like they have a good relationship.
Lu Mingfei thought.
When they walked out of the hospital, the crow chirped.
"Wow, that was S-level just now, what? He looks like a very ordinary boy, and he's not that powerful!"
"No."
Yasha almost scolded him out of habit, but before he spoke, Yuan Zhisheng's voice sounded.
"He's strong."
His palms were still numb to this day.
As a strong man who bears the name of the emperor, Yuan Zhisheng knows better than anyone how terrifying his body is.
But even in this way, he still fell behind in the struggle with the S-class.
"S level?"
Yuan Zhisheng lowered his eyes slightly.
…………
After many inquiries and gathering information, Lu Mingfei discovered something very strange.
No one remembers the strange disease that happened in the small town half a century ago.
No one knows about this.
It didn't happen at all.
Still, keep silent.
Lu Mingfei couldn't possibly believe what these residents said. There were other ways to verify the existence of strange diseases, such as files.
They found the hospital archives, Lu Mingfei was responsible for looking out, and Ling was responsible for sneaking in.
He was surprised to find that when performing these tasks similar to espionage, Zero's performance could be said to be very familiar and quite professional.
She is obviously Her Royal Highness.
It’s just that considering the race of Zero’s classmates, they are the kind of fierce people who can complete a Katyusha with the sound of disassembly and reloading of AK47.
Lu Mingfei was relieved.
Soon, Zero-classmate returned after completing his infiltration.
Just looking at the two men lying at Lu Mingfei's feet, Ling was still somewhat concerned.
"Don't worry, no one has passed."
Lu Mingfei said.
"I'm doing a good job on the lookout."
Zero subconsciously felt that something was wrong.
What Lu Mingfei meant by looking at the wind seemed to be different from what she understood.
Forget it, it's not that important.
They quickly evacuated the scene.
"How's it going? Did you find anything?"
Lu Mingfei asked.
"No."
Zero shook his head.
At that time half a century ago, the hospital did not have any relevant written records about that strange disease.
"That's right."
Lu Mingfei held his chin in thought.
…………
Meanwhile, the church.
"Still no news from Sanchel?"
Alexander asked majestically.
"Can't find it."
Little Robert pinched his beard and frowned deeply.
"The signal from the locator has also disappeared. It's really strange. Will the alchemy equipment of the Prometheus series also be destroyed?
"Where's Elizabeth?"
Alexander asked again.
"Oh, her."
Little Robert smiled as if he had everything under control.
"It seems that the Daughter of Doom should be the key to entering the other world."
"Elizabeth took someone to table her."
"Um."
Alexander nodded.
Behind them were rows of tied up town residents.
Several tower-like men stood guard.
Any hybrid who enters Centralia will immediately notice the anomalies in this town.
That is, the residents who suddenly appeared.
All sources indicate that the town was deserted more than fifty years ago.
So how did these residents appear?
Considering the other world mentioned in the trial, it is very likely that these abnormal residents are related to this.
No one knows who the guy who posted on the hunter site is.
But since his post was pinned to the top of the website and he swore he mentioned bronze and fire, it was definitely not groundless.
What I saw and heard after coming to Centralia also proved this.
Although only four people came from the Supreme Council, this was not the only energy they could use.
On the first night they came to the town, they made contact with the hybrids hiding here who were also affiliated with the Supreme Council.
They are hunters on the surface, do not belong to any organization, and live a free wandering life.
But once the Supreme Council gives them activation instructions when necessary, the wild hunters will immediately transform and become the sharpest swords for Alexander and others.
This is where the so-called ancient family heritage lies.
It is the greatness that upstarts like Cassel and Gattuso cannot understand.
Using the authority of the Supreme Council, Alexander and others successfully gathered a large number of hybrids, and started taking action on the second day after arriving in the town.
They quietly arrested the residents of the town.
Then a mixed race with Japanese ancestry was hypnotized.
Using this method, we quickly found the biggest anomaly in this town.
Little bad luck, or rather, the daughter of misfortune.
The organizers simply knew the answer.
Little Bad Luck's rumors about dragging people into dreams can be interpreted as the authority to drag people into the other world.
In this way, as long as they find a girl, the other world will open to them.
It's so relaxing that it's boring.
Little Robert, who was sitting in the church waiting for the news, even started to yawn.
"You know, that S-class, and by the way, there's also some kind of emperor of the island country."
His legs were crossed and crossed on the back of the chair in front of him, lazily passing the time.
"I heard that I have a good relationship with the people here."
"We are still exploring things seriously."
As he spoke, he held his belly.
"It's so funny."
"Don't they know everyone here has problems?"
"It makes the guys here look like normal people."
"Stupid or not."
"And, then again."
Little Robert wiped his tears and blew his nails indifferently.
"So what if the people in Centralia are all normal people?"
"In front of us, there are a group of inferior creatures that cannot even ignite golden eyes. As long as we obediently give everything, bend down and become our steps to the end, wouldn't it be great?"
"There is only one emperor."
Alexander said.
"that's me."
"That Japanese guy is so disappointing."
"What does he think he is doing, playing a superhero game?"
"A true king should crush everything with absolute power."
"Yeah yeah."
Little Robert nodded sympathetically.
Suddenly, he frowned.
he said strangely.
"Mr. Captain, do you feel that the fog seems to be getting thicker?"
Alexander rose like a lion.
In the process he ignited the Golden Eyes.
The mighty majesty swept away.
Also in the direction he was looking at, two figures, one large and one small, came from the thick fog.
"Is that you, Elizabeth?"
The figure didn't answer.
They kept coming.
Little Robert also discovered something unusual.
He grabbed the revolver and prepared to attack.
"who is it!"
A pair of scorching golden eyes pierced the thick fog.
But the one with golden eyes was not the figure who seemed to be Elizabeth.
But, that child.
Alexander and Robert Jr. both had expressions as deep as water.
Finally, they saw it.
Elizabeth, and the child she held.
No.
It should be said that the child was holding Elizabeth's hand.
Little bad luck.
Her dirty face was full of indifference.
A pair of golden eyes were like hot molten lava.
She looked at the two of them calmly.
Eyes without any emotion.
It makes people feel chilly from the bottom of their hearts.
Little Robert didn't realize it until this moment.
What kind of terrifying monster they had provoked.
Big beads of sweat were secreted.
His mouth was a little dry.
Little Robert wanted to shoot.
But now I found that my hands were shaking so much that I couldn't lift them up.
Little Luck held out his hand.
She pointed at the two.
It's just a matter of a moment.
The raging thick fog completely engulfed them.
The church became a vast white world.
There seemed to be a vague roar of some kind of monster.
…………
"The fog is getting thicker."
Lu Mingfei looked out the window.
He shook his head and addressed the other three in the room.
"That's what's going on here."
"There is no record of that strange disease, which means that the strange disease is very important."
"Yes, there is more."
Lu Mingfei looked at Ling.
"You tell me."
"Um."
Zero nodded.
She recounted what the kunoichi had said to Minamoto in the morning.
Little Bad Luck ran upstairs, looking for someone.
She checked one room after another, but it seemed that she failed in the end and didn't find the person she was looking for, so she finally went downstairs dejectedly.
These were the reports that the female ninja gave to Minamoto. Even though her voice was low and she was using Japanese, she still didn't hide it from Zero.
Several people digested the information.
Then Chu Zihang talked about their exploration.
There is indeed a problem over there in the mine.
There they discovered intense alchemical reactions.
Speaking of which, Fingel was the one who discovered this.
Lu Mingfei looked at his unreliable roommate suspiciously.
Fingel held his head high and was proud of himself.
But after Chu Zihang recounted what happened at that time in detail, the man immediately lowered his head.
It's a bit embarrassing to say, but if the protagonist is this guy, it really makes sense.
This must have been the opportunity for Fingel to discover the alchemical reaction, which is a bit strange.
He had to go to the toilet.
I found a deserted corner and prepared to release the water.
Then the alchemical compass he carried with him reacted.
To be honest, Fingel was shocked at the time that it could cause such a big reaction from Compass. He almost thought that his Kung Fu bloodline had evolved just by peeing.
It turned out later that it had nothing to do with his bloodline.
They discovered a huge alchemical matrix.
It is on the site of the original mine where the fire broke out.
"Fire."
Chu Zihang said.
"I guess it's the power related to bronze and fire."
