Kassel Academy, Rector's Office.
There is a vintage record player placed on the side table in the room, with the needle crossing the track, and the Symphony No. 3 in E flat major is playing in the room. The second movement has just entered, making this spacious place. The space takes on a solemn atmosphere.
At this time, two old men were sitting on one side of the long desk.
One was wearing decent casual clothes, and the other was wearing old jeans. These clothes seemed to have been aged for a long time, so they no longer fit well and could not hold up the old man's beer belly.
"Hurry up, I've been coveting your bottle of wine for a long time, you stingy old guy!"
The night watchman urged, somewhat impatiently.
On the table is a bottle of The Macallan Lalique whiskey, which was produced in 1955. Today, it is priced at US$160,000 per bottle, but it is still unavailable.
But despite Angers' luxurious lifestyle, this bottle of wine was not purchased at a high price. He only spent less than a hundred dollars when he bought this bottle of wine. This is the benefit of being older.
Many times you accidentally buy something and find that it has increased in value years later.
However, people always have bad habits, and Angers is no exception. The longer a bottle of good wine is stored, the more reluctant it is to drink it. This bottle of wine has been displayed in his office as a decoration for many years.
The night watchman tried several times to encourage Ange to drink to satisfy his craving, but Ange was always put off. Today was the day he was looking forward to.
"What's the rush? I won't put it back again."
Angers looked calm, opened the bottle elegantly, and the rich aroma of wine filled the office.
Then he took out the prepared ice cubes and put them into two crystal glasses. The light red wine liquid was added, which was reminiscent of gems in flames, magnificent and moving.
When Angers poured the wine, the night watchman eagerly picked up the cup and sniffed it.
"cheers."
Angers smiled and raised his glass, clinking it with the night watchman.
He was indeed very happy today. For the first time in the history of the secret party, he actually killed the Dragon King, and he was one step closer to his goal.
Norton's fall was not the most important thing. What was important was that Lu Chen actually fought against the Dragon King in his Nibelung roots and killed the Dragon King in an almost one-on-one situation!
This is a happier thing than the death of the first generation species, because it means that their S-class ace does have the strength to face the Dragon King head-on. Although from a time perspective, Norton may not have been able to form a dragon body and is not in a perfect state. But Lu Chen's strength is undeniable.
The Möbius strip that this child once told him has been broken. Now that they have the first-generation dragon bone cross, the Nibelung plan can be launched, even if Lu Chen's current combat power is not enough to fight against the stronger ones. The first generation of the species, but it does not mean that he will not be able to do it in the future.
Norton's death was a major step taken by the secret party and opened up the future.
The night watchman drank the light red wine into his throat, let out a long breath, and smacked his mouth, "That's it, look at you, my dear."
"I think you don't need to drink it."
Angers tasted the wine in the glass carefully. Whatever wine he drank now felt like a fine wine.
The night watchman smiled and said: "To be honest, this kid Lu Chen went too far. Now I kind of believe what you said before. I also read the report roughly. It is Norton's Bronze City. It occupies the right time and place. Under such circumstances, this first-generation species actually lost. "
"The child's speech spirit has not been recorded by the secret party, and the increase in strength may be outrageous. Without the dragon body to fight head-on, it is normal for the Dragon King to be unable to defeat him. I am just amazed at his ability to fight. The control of rhythm.”
Angers clicked on the Pad on the desktop. It was the report that Fingel had just added before the night watchman arrived, describing the final situation of that battle in more detail.
"According to the latter report, Lu Chen was almost pushed to a dead end at that time, but at the end he seized the opportunity and unleashed an extreme power that Norton had never expected before. The victory was decided in one move, and the king continuously There is no chance to release the ultimate word spirit. Although there are no photos or images, I can still imagine how stunning and violent the final blow was."
Angers was a little emotional, and the night watchman took the Pad and looked at it with some dissatisfaction, "Fingel, this brat, actually sent you a report first!"
"What you care about is this strange place?"
Angers was speechless.
"Tsk, tsk, it seems that the vice-principal is not as oppressive as the principal, but for the sake of this kid's integrity, I won't pursue it."
The night watchman still looked a little unhappy, and the expression on his face was like a son calling someone else dad again, "What you are saying, old friend, is that it is a pity that Fingel was not allowed to bring a good quality camera. His photography skills are still It’s great, but even if he captures it, it will probably only become an SS-level secret and be contained.”
Angers put down his wine glass and shook his head, "There's nothing to hide. If there is a video, I would even like to show it to all the students in the school."
The night watchman was stunned for a moment and smiled: "Haha, it really looks like your style."
"When a student has potential but has not grown up, we need to keep him low-key. As an old Chinese saying goes, if a tree is beautiful in the forest, it will be destroyed by the wind. You must learn to hide your clumsiness. But he has chopped down the first generation of trees, and he still has No matter what he hides, no matter what the wind can blow him away, sometimes the iron-blooded record can intimidate others even more."
Angers snapped his fingers, and the music on the record player entered the third movement, which was a humorous piece of music.
"Old friend, every time you use zero time to do something like this, it looks very stylish, but I can't help but wonder what actions you did during this time."
The night watchman complained, causing the smile on Angers' face to falter.
"They should go back to school tomorrow. These children, Lu Chen, have done a great job, but they are not mature enough to deal with some things."
Angers tapped his fingers on the table and said under the night watchman's doubtful eyes: "There are mixed races living in the Nibelungs there, and they brought a group back with them when they left."
"Isn't this a good thing? The mixed race groups in closed areas often have very high bloodlines. After being taken in and cultivated by the Secret Party, they will become valuable combat power."
The night watchman didn't understand what his old friend was worried about.
"They should have brought everyone out."
Seeing the strange look in the night watchman's eyes, Ange waved his hand and explained: "I'm not greedy. A-level hybrids are indeed valuable new combat forces, but not to mention how much combat literacy these people who have lived in the Peach Blossom Spring for so long have, we now have There is no shortage of these fighting forces, we already have the sharpest swords, no matter how many ordinary soldiers there are, they can't compare to the peerless generals who lead the charge."
"Then I think Lu Chen and the others are doing fine."
The night watchman drank all the wine in the glass and consciously picked up the bottle and filled it up.
Angers glanced at the night watchman helplessly, suspecting that the other person's brain had been corrupted by the short films in the bell tower over the years, "Thanks to you, you are still the strongest alchemist who inherited the name of Flamel. Have you forgotten... The Nibelungs will collapse after the death of the Dragon King."
The night watchman paused while raising the glass, "This is indeed a problem. The Nibelungen did not collapse after Norton died this time, which also confirms the inference that the Dragon King is a twin. By the way, have we checked that company?"
Angers nodded and said: "I checked, but there is no result. The copy of the game was customized and developed by a certain shareholder, but not long after that shareholder sold all the shares. After further investigation, he used the new model of the young people from the East. Vocabulary-wise... it’s like an infinite nest of dolls, nothing can be found.”
"This is an interesting thing, but those people don't seem to have any ill intentions."
The night watchman mused.
"So, we urgently need to find another Dragon King of Bronze and Fire, so here comes the problem..."
While Angers paused, the night watchman answered: "When Constantine dies, the Nibelungs at the pole will collapse, and the remaining Inuit people there will freeze to death even if they can escape. On the snowfield.”
"Yes, that's why I said that Lu Chen and the others had forgotten this and asked the people at the academy to arrange for the Inuit people brought out first to settle down. After they were stabilized, they would be asked to turn back and find a way to bring the remaining people back."
The night watchman looked at Angers with surprise, "I feel like you've become much gentler in your behavior recently."
Ange laughed and cursed, "Who do you think I am, who cares about the life and death of people just to kill a dragon and because I find it troublesome?"
The night watchman was speechless for a moment, but in fact, what he wanted to say was that his old friend seemed to be an old British gentleman and a successful educator, but it was undeniable that in the field of dragon slaying, the other party had always been an extreme thug.
"Okay, if we don't talk about this, what are we going to do with Dragon Bone Cross?"
The night watchman returned to the topic he was interested in. As an alchemist master, the first-generation dragon bone cross has always been his dream.
Angers recalled the photos of corpses he had seen stitched together by Norton and said: "Extract a knuckle to prove to the school directors that we have indeed killed the first generation species, and the rest... will be used for the Nibelung Plan."
"So extreme? Would those school directors be willing?"
The night watchman was a little surprised and admired his old friend's courage.
Ange smiled and said: "The school directors are not the idiots you think. On the contrary, they are all smart people who put their interests first. This time, Lu Chen killed the first generation, allowing them to see greater interests. As an old Chinese saying goes, Well done, sharpening a knife is as good as chopping wood. Lu Chen is a peerless sword in their eyes. As long as this knife can become sharper, there will be dragon bone crosses of the first generation species in the future. They are not satisfied with just facing a first generation species. The remains are divided.”
The night watchman nodded, Ange's words made sense, "Then they have agreed?"
"It's rare that the proposal I initiated was unanimously approved. Not a single school director expressed dissatisfaction, but the Gattuso family said they need to reserve part of the next Keel Cross."
Angers did initiate the proposal. During the remote meeting, all the school directors had no objections. Obviously, Lu Chen's performance shocked them.
And even if the school directors disagree, Angers will not divide and transfer the keel. He still has the final say at Kassel College.
This is just a formality, and the regents are happy if they agree, and if they disagree they can prepare themselves for impeachment at next year's regents meeting.
"Hey, part of it, I can give them the Dragon Bone Cross in the future, but it's hard to say whether it will be effective by then."
The night watchman smiled a little obscenely. He was the final handler. Through his hands, the "things" useful to the Nibelungen plan had already been drained out, even if a new keel would be given to Gattus in the future. As for the home part, it’s hard to say how much “material” there is.
"Are the other materials needed for the Nibelungen ready? Lu Chen sent me a private message, saying that he wanted to go to Japan to resolve some security risks. Japan's search for the White King seems to have made a breakthrough recently. I think It’s best if the Nibelungen plan can be carried out before he sets off, after all, we don’t know anything about the White King.”
Angers knew that his old friend had been preparing for the Nibelungen Plan for many years and was about to start now. He needed to confirm it in advance.
"Going to Japan? Didn't he just come back two months ago and he is so anxious to pick up his little girlfriend?"
The Night Watch thought that their next primary goal should be to find Constantine. After the twin inference was confirmed, a group of tenured professors at the college intensively checked and compared the data, and speculated that the twins of the throne should be one who controls the throne, and the other who controls the throne. force.
And Constantine should be the one who controls the power. In terms of combat power, he should be stronger than Norton. Although it is not clear whether the dragon family has brotherly feelings, but now that Norton has been killed, the other party is definitely You know, why should you give some reaction
If Constantine succeeds in forming a cocoon and achieves nirvana, and the secret party only discovers it when he fully embodies the world, it will undoubtedly be a world-wide disaster.
Angre smiled and said: "Young people will always be obsessed with love and love. This is the beauty of youth. Lu Chen seems like a normal boy in this aspect, which makes me feel relieved. Now he is an honorary school student. Dong is another dragon-slaying hero who killed the Dragon King. No one dares to block his way, and no one dares to touch his woman. Naturally, he can't help it. "
"In your words, Lu Chen seems like a domineering president, but I heard that he hasn't even confessed his feelings to other girls."
The night watchman is undoubtedly the old gossip king.
"You know this too!?"
Angers was also surprised and wondered what you were doing on the bell tower all day long.
"Then, Fingel can only be regarded as my disciple. What don't I know?"
The night watchman said proudly.
Angers felt that some of the accusations made by the school board were not unreasonable. The gossip atmosphere in the night watch forum in the college was indeed serious, but he didn't care about it. "So, after the dragon body is in place, when will the Nibelungen plan Can we start?”
The night watchman touched his beer belly and burped, and said: "It can start the next day after we are in place. This plan only requires high raw materials. Strictly speaking, it does not have high technical requirements. Except for me, no one else in the world There are probably three or four alchemists who can complete this plan."
Ange said it was really not technically demanding, like the old Versailles.
"Now that everything is done, let's drink to our great cause of dragon slaying."
Hearing that the Nibelungen plan was okay, Angers felt relieved and raised his cup to touch the night watchman.
