Dragon Raja: Dragon Slaying Begins with System Hosting

Page 89

Hilbert Jean Angers, the principal of the Kassel College, was somewhat surprised when he saw the email.

While there are certainly problems on the Japanese side, the Snake-Headed Eight Families have done a decent job, so how did things escalate to such a huge extent?

In less than half a minute, the fire had spread to an area the size of a football field. If it had continued for a while, they might have had to demolish Tokyo.

However, the Hebi-Hachi family has been quite xenophobic in recent years, and the specialists they sent there were all dealt with and could not stay for long. Now, there are no resident specialists in the Japanese branch, and it is governed internally by the Hebi-Hachi family.

Angers zoomed in on the attached video from Norma; in the ten-second video, the black sun unleashed its power…

"Isn't this the Black Sun? That old bastard Uesugi Kotsugi isn't dead? Or has the Snake-Headed Eight Family produced a new super hybrid?"

Angers was completely baffled, and then a fight broke out in the street, even the Black Sun was activated...

……

When Lu Mingfei woke up, the Snake Clan, which had originally been searching all over Japan for Uesugi Erii, began searching all over Japan for Lu Mingfei.

Erii didn't want to reveal Lu Mingfei's identity, so neither Genjiro nor Uesugi Kotsuya continued to question her. Instead, they silently searched for Lu Mingfei's whereabouts.

But they were once again in a state of confusion, having failed to find Erii even with bounties of 1 billion and 1.5 billion yen, making it even more difficult to find Lu Mingfei and his accomplices.

The Snake Clan naturally sent people to investigate the hotel where the group had stayed, but Lu Mingfei and his group had made thorough preparations for coming to Japan, so they would not expose their true identities by checking into a hotel, which was a very ordinary matter.

After Lu Mingfei had a good sleep, the three of them put on makeup and drove their new car to pick up Sakurai Akira and the others.

Sakurai Akira brought eight people with him this time: his friend, three acquaintances, and four people who, in his memory, were the quickest to speak up on the ship.

A group of six men and three women left Japan by boat in the early morning and returned to the Japanese coastline in the early morning two days later.

While on the boat, their eyes were filled with anticipation, as if they were shining with hope.

Lu Mingfei also removed his makeup. Although the transformation was fun, having so many costumes on his face was really uncomfortable.

The smuggling boat docked, released the people, and immediately turned and left.

What the nine people were left with was the sound of waves crashing against the rocks in the darkness, and the headlights of two cars on the abandoned ferry crossing.

The three people were facing away from the car headlights and towards them.

While waiting for the ship to arrive, the three of them didn't just sit idly; instead, they talked about the Living Alchemy Matrix.

The system told Chu Zihang, "The optimization of the alchemy matrix still needs more attempts. After Erii released her Word of Power, the active dragon blood in her body broke through the shackles of the alchemy matrix."

In other words, the current Living Alchemy Matrix cannot balance the excessively high proportion of dragon blood in hybrids.

The current alchemical matrix can easily suppress ordinary hybrids like Sakurai Akira, but current technology cannot achieve greater power.

It's still far from the humanoid dragon body that Chu Zihang yearns for, and it's also far from the ordinary human body that the system wants to enhance.

"So that means the people Sakurai Akira brought this time are mainly focused on ensuring the effectiveness of the treatment? And won't be doing too many trials?" Xia Mi asked.

The system shook its head: "The treatment effect and the experiment are not contradictory. I just don't intend to make any extreme attempts."

Standing still is impossible. We'll use Sakurai Akira for the first attempt and Erii for the advanced attempt. The system will not let go of any opportunity as long as it sees the possibility of progress.

As long as it's not a trial run using Lu Mingfei himself, taking even a small step is better than standing still. If something goes wrong, it's not like it's beyond repair...

"Panpan is studying your living alchemy techniques back home," Xia Mi said. "How about we get a few Japanese people for Panpan to practice on?"

Lu Mingfei only got started with the Little Devil's techniques and system analysis. Panpan had just begun to learn living alchemy when Xia Mi said she would give her a few Japanese people to practice on... It can only be said that she was really messing with the Japanese.

After analyzing the situation, the system shook its head and said, "Forget it, it's best to avoid any accidents involving these hundred-plus people. It wouldn't be good to scare them."

While the system is pragmatic, it also considers moderation and takes into account the feelings of others...

Sakurai Akira led his men up the ferry. Their faces were dark, and they couldn't see the people in front of the lamp clearly. They could only vaguely tell from their figures that there were two men and a girl.

If they hadn't had some impression of Xia Mi, this tiny girl, when they left the Qingshan Charity School, they might have mistaken her for a child.

Sakurai Akira stopped in front of the three and said, "Lord Lu, the person has been brought."

"Ah."

The system responded and glanced at the eight people behind him who appeared slightly tense.

As mixed-race individuals, all eight are quite good-looking; any one of them would easily score at least a 7 out of 10 in terms of basic attractiveness.

The eight people were both nervous and surprised as they faced the system's scrutinizing gaze.

The tension stemmed from their need for help from Lord Lu, and they feared he wouldn't grant their request—those who rely on others are bound to be controlled by them.

They were surprised because they finally saw Lu Mingfei's face clearly. Although the system was reluctant to show its youthful appearance in front of others, as it would easily make people distrust it, a tender face could not lie.

The youngest of these eight people is just 18 years old, a few months older than Lu Mingfei.

Despite their naivety... the eight of them bowed in unison: "Greetings, Lord Lu."

"Hmm." The system looked at the eight people and said calmly, "You are all hybrids, but you haven't awakened your own power. However, your bloodline ratio is very high, and you may awaken at any time and possess power that is stronger than that of ordinary hybrids."

After awakening your bloodline, you will no longer be ordinary people, but this power comes at a price. Under normal circumstances, once your bloodline percentage increases, it will never regress, until your dragon blood percentage becomes too high, causing you to begin dragonification and eventually become Deadpools…”

The eight people didn't interrupt; of course they knew all this, as Sakurai Akira had told them.

Once a dangerous hybrid awakens its bloodline, the risk of it going out of control is almost 100%. The reason it's not 100% is because it's being controlled by someone; otherwise, it's just a matter of how fast it goes. That's why hybrid factions all over the world unanimously try to control their own dangerous hybrids.

"Unless your bloodline is controlled by external forces, you will be hunted down and wiped out by local mixed-race organizations anywhere in the world."

Like cockroaches in the dark, forever unable to bear the light, they were eventually wiped out by the hybrid organization in their loss of self due to their bloodline going out of control.

There is also a very small number of lucky but dangerous hybrids who never activated their bloodline and were never screened by hybrid organizations, thus living freely outside the world.

These eight dangerous hybrids all had somber expressions. It was indeed extremely fortunate that their bloodlines had remained unchecked throughout their lives and that they hadn't been discovered by any hybrid organization. Unfortunately, they lacked such luck; otherwise, they wouldn't have been sent to the Green Mountain Charity Academy for detention.

"And another group of them were discovered by the hybrid organizations while they were still ordinary people, and were dealt with, either by being humanely destroyed, by having them undergo forced surgery to suppress the possibility of awakening their bloodline, or by being detained and managed in a centralized manner to allow them to live a little longer."

Of course, the vast majority of dangerous hybrids like you will inevitably die before the age of forty due to uncontrolled bloodline loss…

Why do the Snake Clan insist on releasing prisoners only at age forty, even those with excellent behavior? Because it's all part of their plan.

Most people's lives are controlled by their body's hormones. During the years when hormone secretion is at its peak, they are most likely to awaken their ancestral instincts. Only when hormone levels decline does the likelihood of them awakening their ancestral instincts gradually decrease.

The eight men clenched their fists involuntarily. This referred to them; they were being held captive and managed by the Snake Clan, hoping to prolong their lives...

"Except for a very few lucky dangerous hybrids, the vast majority of dangerous hybrids lead such a difficult life, with no human rights whatsoever, and ultimately die bearing the name of monsters..."

"Please, Lord Lu, save me! From now on, I will go through fire and water for you to repay your kindness!" Someone broke the formation and knelt down before Lu Mingfei. He didn't want to turn into a monster for no reason and die in the end.

As soon as he knelt down, the remaining seven men followed suit, shouting in unison, "Please, Lord Lu, save us! From now on, we are willing to go through fire and water for you to repay your kindness!"

The system didn't speak immediately, but instead looked at the eight kneeling half-bloods for a while, then paused to consider its next move.

In the silent crowd, only the sound of crashing waves could be heard. Lu Mingfei's silence made these people uneasy. They wanted to look up to see Lu Mingfei's expression, but in the end, they did not look up and remained kneeling firmly.

Sakurai Akira had already said that, to show his sincerity, he stabbed himself the moment they met...

Some people wanted to do the same, but Sakurai Akira thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "If you do this, you will only harm the brothers and sisters who come after you. Either everyone should commit seppuku in front of Lord Lu to show their loyalty."

Either those who underwent seppuku and those who didn't will split into two factions, isolating each other, which will disrupt our unity.

So Sakurai Akira didn't hand them the knives, preventing the ferry terminal from turning into a cult gathering place.

"You will suffer greatly throughout your lives because of your bloodline, but from now on," the system said in dragon script after preparing the 'Word of Power: Emperor'. "You will no longer have to suffer."

The dangerous mixed-race individuals at Qingshan Charity School are all those whose bloodlines have not awakened. If they had awakened their bloodlines, they would not be confined to Qingshan Charity School, a school with a teaching staff composed of ordinary people.

The electric fences at Qingshan Love School couldn't contain the awakened hybrid, and it was far too dangerous for the school's teachers and security guards.

To cure their bloodline issues, their bloodline must first be awakened. The White King bloodline will not respond to the summons of "Word of Power: Emperor," but the dragon runes on their faces can awaken the bloodline within them.

Dangerous hybrids are generally caused by an excessively high proportion of dragon blood in their bodies. Those with a higher proportion of dragon blood can easily understand their mother tongue—Dragon Script.

These eight dangerous hybrids immediately entered a state of spiritual vision, and at the same time felt an endless stream of power surging within their bodies.

They finally understood why Sakurai Akira could so easily escape the school they couldn't escape, and why he could break that thumb-thick iron chain so casually.

The power within his body made it seem as if he could jump several meters high with a single leap...

Xia Mi spoke, and the domain of Words of Power and Discipline opened. The suppression of Words of Power and bloodline made these dangerous hybrids with excessively high bloodline ratios feel as if they had been doused with cold water, sobering them up considerably.

……

The doctor told Genjiro, "The Uesugi family head's bloodline recovery speed has indeed been suppressed. The previous treatment methods were damaged too severely. If it hadn't been damaged, the Uesugi family head's bloodline might have remained stable at a certain level. It's just unknown how long this treatment method can last."

Erii's bloodline problem is very serious. Before this, the rate at which her bloodline ratio increased after treatment was almost visible to the naked eye. The recovery speed brought by the royal blood body is too strong.

Now it's a little different. The remnants of the treatments she received outside are still suppressing her bloodline, reducing the visible percentage of bloodline recovery a bit.

Erii looked at the markings the doctor had made on the X-ray and silently calculated in her mind that Lu Mingfei had given her a little over two hundred alchemical matrices, and now the doctor had found only about twenty left, mainly distributed in the limbs and other parts of the body.

Her memory was pretty good; she remembered that these were the alchemical matrices that Lu Mingfei had initially inscribed for her, and more than five days had passed, yet these initial alchemical matrices had not broken.

How long it can last is indeed unknown, and Lu Mingfei has not made any guarantees to her, but Erii trusts Lu Mingfei!

After the two doctors opened the intensive care unit, before Genji said goodbye and left, she wrote a note to Genji: "Brother, Erii needs a cell phone."

"Ah."

Genjiro nodded first, then uttered a slightly questioning "Hmm?"

Erii has no problem asking for phones, as many as she wants, but she's never asked for phones before. After all, she mainly passes the time by playing games, and she doesn't have many games on her phone. What game can't she play on the game console in her private hospital room?

She has absolutely no use for the phone's main function—communication.

He gave his younger sister a deep look, suspecting that she was about to contact the boy.

This seemed like a good thing. After thinking for a moment, Genji asked Erii, "Do you want to contact that boy?"

He was too lazy to mention the fake ID and name used at the hotel, but the other party was indeed resourceful. After learning about this person's previous whereabouts, they tried to find out more information about the boy.

The fact that they suddenly appeared in Japan is nothing special; quite a few people illegally enter Japan every year. The main issue is that this person had previously visited Genji Heavy Industries, and on their very first day there, they went straight there. That day also happened to be the day Erii successfully ran away from home. They were seen watching the whole thing from across the street, like a couple…

Although it's unknown whether they've sneaked in to explore, their repeated appearances suggest that they might be targeting the Snake Clan.

Tachibana Masamune suspected they were from Kassel College, a suspicion shared by most of the informed high-ranking officials. As a result, Inuyama He was isolated once again… however, Inuyama He now had the support of the former patriarch, Uesugi Koshi, so they had little to say.

When Erii was asked by her brother, she blinked her big eyes and remained silent with an innocent expression.

She seemed too naive to lie, but Yuan Zhisheng took out his phone and handed it to her, saying, "I understand. Use my phone to contact him. Otherwise, it would be strange for your family to leave you their phone number, and they might investigate further."

In fact, Genji also wanted to stab that kid a few times, because the hotel corridor surveillance footage showed that Erii and the other guy had been sharing a double room for a long time!

When Uesugi saw this, he was really on the verge of losing his temper, because what followed was two whole days of deep and quiet living together, each time looking like they had been through a lot of trouble.

Two days later, looking completely exhausted, they finally went out for a stroll, and then ate ramen in an alley behind Tokyo University...

However, because Erii had received treatment, Genjiro did not have the same first impression as Uesugi Kotsuki that the other party was bullying Erii. Instead, he considered that the reason for their appearance was that the other party was treating Erii.

The treatment used on Erii left strange marks on many parts of her body that could suppress her bloodline. These marks were so numerous that they covered almost every part of her body. If it took some time and effort, it would be possible to explain why the two of them hadn't left the hotel for two days and two nights.
