Chapter 403 Is it possible that student Uesugi is the Dragon King?
The next day, in Kassel College, in the conference hall deep in the Hall of Valor, the school directors gathered together.
They are the funders behind Cassel Academy and the supreme leaders of the Secret Party. If we use the previous names, they should be called the Supreme Elders. The meeting they participate in is the Supreme Elders Council that can guide the direction of the Secret Party's actions.
Not all school directors were present, but those who were not present also participated in this meeting in their own way. In the important resolutions that are about to begin, they must fulfill their voting rights. This is not only a right, but also an obligation.
At the end of the long table, sitting was the president of Kassel College, the dragon-slaying legend Angers.
As the principal and the irreplaceable executive leader of the secret party, he relied on his own performance and the support of the deans of departments to obtain a seat on the Presbyterian Council without the support of his family.
"Frost, my old friend, I didn't expect you to come to the meeting. You seem to be much older. Are you okay?"
In a quiet atmosphere, Angers took the lead in greeting his "old friend". There was really not much worry on his cheerful expression.
Hearing Angers words, the school directors couldn't help but look at the two of them strangely.
The conflict between Angers and Frost did not happen in a day or two, it was a conflict that lasted for decades.
But no one expected that this kind of conflict would break out like this one day. Whether it was Frost's attempt to place Angers under house arrest or Angers' counterattack now, they would undoubtedly increase the intensity of the fight a hundred times and lead the situation to a new direction.
This has led to today's situation.
"Thank you for your concern, I'm fine."
Frost gave Angers a cold look and spoke harshly.
"That's really a pity..."
Angers shrugged, looking disappointed.
"..."
Frost's eyes were cold.
"Don't be angry, don't be angry, peace is most important to everyone!"
The middle-aged man spoke to stop the conflict between the two.
"We didn't come to school just to quarrel over a trivial matter, right? Principal Angers, have you sorted out the "Bronze Report"? Isn't this the result we want to see most? Let's talk about business first!"
Hearing what he said, the other school directors turned their attention to Angers.
The middle-aged man was right. Although the reason why they came to Kassel Academy was indeed other important events, the death of the Lord of Bronze and Fire was the most important one.
Even in the entire secret party, and even in the entire history of hybrids, this is an epoch-making event.
Hearing the middle-aged man's words, Angers looked away from Frost, who was looking at him suspiciously, and looked at all the school directors.
"This is an epoch-making matter. To fully confirm and completely avoid misjudgment, it will take at least six months to issue a report. But if it is just a preliminary conclusion, it can be issued now, right in front of you."
It may only take a day to kill a Dragon King, but it may take a year to prove that the Dragon King is the Dragon King.
Before this, humans had never really killed the Dragon King, so they naturally did not know how to judge the authenticity of the Dragon Bone Cross.
Constantine died for less than a week, and in such a short period of time, only preliminary reports could be obtained.
After hearing Angers words, the school directors couldn't wait to open the report in front of them, skipping the tedious proofs and going to the conclusion on the last page.
"The King of Bronze and Fire, killed."
After seeing this text with their own eyes, everyone fell silent.
Even though I had already received reports, I was still shocked when I confirmed it myself.
"No Dragon King has ever been confirmed to be truly dead in history. Angers, can you provide any concrete evidence?"
Frost asked after a moment.
Written proof is meaningless. If you want to convince them, you must provide actual proof.
"The newly made Philosopher's Stone should be enough, right?"
Arrogantly handed over a piece of roughly polished crystal, and the school directors circulated it in turn.
"Although the weight is a little smaller than expected, there is no doubt that it is the Philosopher's Stone."
After careful observation, the school directors nodded and confirmed the texture of the crystal.
Since the death of Nicolas Flamel, the last master of alchemy who could refine the Philosopher's Stone six hundred years ago, no one among human alchemists has been able to forge a new Philosopher's Stone.
The known Philosopher's Stones were all excavated from ancient tombs.
Now there is actually a new Philosopher's Stone being born. Either an alchemy master who is capable of refining the Philosopher's Stone has been born among humans, or humans have obtained unprecedented new materials.
"My name is Constantine, who has reached the summit of the mountain of fire, where I melted the sea of bronze and forged the name of God."
Countess Laurent recited this ancient scripture softly.
"He is dead now, along with his brother."
Angers' voice was cold and serious.
"A dead god is just a pile of dry bones."
After a long silence, Elizabeth Laurent stood up and applauded, and all the school directors, including Frost, also stood up and applauded. This was a sign of respect for Angers. Although he did not really take action, as a principal and leader, the honor of the students was also
his honor.
After the applause ended, the middle-aged man spoke.
"Dragon King Norton has also been killed? Have his bones been found?"
"not yet."
Angers shook his head.
"But the scene where Dragon King Norton was beheaded was also recorded by Norma. You should all have seen it. He was cut in half by the alchemy sword without any precautions. I don't think there is a chance for him to survive.
"
Hearing what he said, the school directors looked at each other and nodded.
Whether it was the death of Dragon King Constantine or the death of Dragon King Norton, they were all very lucky to be recorded in Eucalyptus by Norma. Any doubts would be caught, but they had repeatedly confirmed each other and there was no problem.
It is precisely because of the well-documented evidence that they came to participate in the meeting without fully confirming the identity of the Dragon King.
"The twins of the fire element among the four monarchs were all killed."
The old man hanging the Buddhist beads pondered slightly.
"The four great monarchs are all twins?"
Only now did the secret party finally understand this information.
"It's very possible that they are, but we still don't know what special significance twins have to the dragon clan. It may be genetic, or it may be mystical."
Angers shook his head and expressed his speculation.
This is what Elizabeth Laurent also looked at Angers and asked her own question.
"According to the video records, both Dragon King Constantine and Dragon King Norton wore bronze masks. Do these masks have any special significance?"
Hearing this, all the school directors looked over with concern.
They also noticed the similarities between Constantine and Norton. Norton did not carry a mask when he first encountered the Vidal, but when he combined with the dragon-blood subspecies, he wore a bronze mask similar to Constantine's.
.
This is something that has not been mentioned in previous historical materials.
"have no idea."
Hearing this question, Angers shook his head.
"Both of these masks were destroyed in the battle, and now only fragments remain. According to the identification of the night watchmen, these should be some kind of ancient alchemy products, but the specific forging time is unknown, and the specific use is also unknown, and no results have been obtained.
"
"Alchemical products..."
Countess Laurent turned her attention to the girl sitting opposite her.
"The Gaotingen family is also an alchemy family. Charlotte, do you have any clues?"
Charlotte Gottingen, among the school board members present, she was the youngest one, even underage. She looked only about sixteen years old, with a little baby fat face and a serious expression, like an exquisite doll.
Because she is too young to fulfill her responsibilities as the head of the household, she is followed by an old butler wearing white gloves. She will first seek advice from the butler on important issues.
But at this moment, facing Lisabeth Laurent's question, Charlotte was only slightly nervous for a moment, and then immediately shook her head, like a student whose name was called by the teacher during class.
"No, there is no mention of the mask in the family's information. It is impossible to confirm its relationship with the Dragon King. Maybe it is just the iron mask that proves the king's identity."
The girl told her guess, and then looked at the Laurent family owner with concern, fearing that she might not answer well.
As an alchemy family, the Gottingen family is not close to other families, with the exception of Baroness Laurent. Charlotte lost her mother when she was young. Baroness Laurent took care of her when she was a child. For her, she was between her sister and
The person between mothers.
"The mask that proves the identity of the king... If the Dragon King also has a mask later, this can be verified."
Dame Laurent nodded, neither praising nor objecting to this conjecture.
She has a serious character, so naturally she will not show an overly intimate attitude in serious situations. That would not be good for Charlotte.
Seeing her expression, Charlotte breathed a sigh of relief and then felt a little disappointed. It wasn't until the housekeeper coughed slightly that she straightened her face again and pretended to be serious.
The other school directors didn't pay much attention to this little trick. Although the bronze mask was a mystery, there were too many mysteries about the Dragon King, and this one was not missing.
"Constantine's bones are still being studied, and the issue of the King of Bronze and Fire should end here for the time being."
Angers concluded and ended the current topic.
"According to the agenda of the meeting, if I remember correctly, the next issue should be about adding new school directors to the school board, right?"
Upon hearing this, the atmosphere within the school board suddenly changed.
If they were still feeling shocked by the death of the Dragon King before, then this issue pulled them back from their grand mission.
The school directors all looked at Angers and Frost. They all knew that the Sheqi family was just a pawn of Angers to launch an attack on the Gattuso family.
This is a struggle for power and a confrontation between two forces. No matter how grand the mission is, it cannot avoid the collision of power.
"As for the proposal for the eight Sheqi families to join the school board, the first initiator was the Gattuso family."
Dame Laurent, as a supporter of Angers, was the first to speak.
"According to convention, the school board can accept new members, but the new members must make sufficient contributions. Everyone here is either a family that has supported the secret party for thousands of years, or a family that has made outstanding contributions in critical moments."
"Although the Sheqi Eight are an ancient mixed-race family, they are located in the Far East and isolated from the world. What qualifications do they have to be ranked with everyone here?"
Countess Laurent's words seemed to be a question, but in fact she gave Angers a chance to explain her reasons. By the way, she emphasized that there was a precedent for reinforcements from the school board.
In fact, half of the school directors present were not from the original ancient family.
In this new era, money is often more valuable than personal bravery. The ancient dragon-blood families are somewhat outdated in the new era. After all, only a few can continue to hold power, such as the Laurent family and the Charlotte family.
Since the secret party can accept the joining of the Gattuso family, it should be able to accept the joining of other families, as long as the price offered by the other party is enough.
Hearing what Countess Laurent said, Angers smiled.
"The action report of Operation Japan should have been submitted to the school board of directors. You should also know the reason why I asked the Japanese branch to join... Well, I won't sell it - blood descendants of the White King, these four words are enough
Is it done?”
Hearing the words spoken by Angers, the school board was shocked again.
It was the same shock as hearing that the King of Bronze and Fire was killed.
The White King is the only dragon in the legend that can rival the Black King. Her authority is even far greater than that of the four monarchs!
If the four monarchs are the first-generation species, then the White King is the zero-generation species, which is the dragon type closest to the Black King and God!
"Can you confirm this information, Angers?"
The old man stopped turning his prayer beads and stared straight at Angers with his eyes like a goshawk.
"Actually, the evidence has been there for a long time, but I wasn't convinced at first."
Angers took away the paperwork of the Bronze Project and revealed the second report below.
"You have the relevant information in front of you. The school has been researching the genes of Japanese mixed-races over the years, and we can definitely confirm that this is a bloodline independent of the four monarchs."
Apart from the bloodline of the White King, what else is possible for a bloodline that is independent of the four monarchs?
The school directors immediately flipped through the reports in front of them. Many of them had Ph.D.s in biology, so it was not difficult to understand these professional terms.
After a while, the school directors put down their reports one after another, looked at each other and nodded.
"If the contents of the report are true, then they are indeed very likely to be descendants of the White King, but the name alone is not enough. We need something more practical."
A school director spoke.
If the secret party is a big cake, then they are the ones who share the cake. If there is no actual benefit from the name of a descendant of the White King, they are not willing to have another colleague like this.
"Didn't you see something more practical? It was during the battle against Constantine."
After hearing what the other party said, Ange spread his hands and said in a relaxed tone.
Hearing this, the school directors were shocked and thought of something.
Angers added slowly.
"Even an old guy like me who can kill a dragon king-level destructive word spirit head-on is far inferior. Isn't this level of force enough to impress everyone here?"
The school directors fell silent.
They all recalled the terrifying power displayed by the girl named Eriki Uesugi during the Battle of Constantine.
The aftermath of the Word Spirit, which was like a sudden change in the world, and the terrifying Black Sun-level Word Spirit that suppressed the release of Constantine, left a deep impression on them.
The shock that Eriyi brought to them even surpassed Constantine as the Dragon King.
Even among those hybrids with dangerous bloodlines, there are almost no existences that can rival Eriki in terms of popularity.
In their impression, the only one among the mixed-race species who is qualified to stand up to Eriki's trial is, apart from the four ultimate word spirits, the only remaining one is the self-destructive word spirit - Lai Yin.
"The power of Eriki-san's words is even close to that of a dragon king. It can rival my best friend Menek, but it doesn't have the flaw that we must die together. It can be used repeatedly."
"As a dragon-slaying blade, her sharpness is far superior to mine. For example, she is the dragon-slaying sword of destiny. Faced with this kind of magical weapon, don't you want to recruit her into the team?
?”
Angers asked rhetorically.
The value of painted pear clothing was vividly demonstrated in the battle of Constantine.
Other data, words such as Yanling's speculations, compared to its most intuitive display, all seem too pale compared to Eriri's actual achievements.
Anyone who has seen the scene where Eri defeated Constantine can never deny Eri's power.
"Uesugi Eriki's power is indeed very powerful, but aren't you worried when you see this kind of power?"
The middle-aged man spoke cautiously.
"What are you worried about?"
Angers asked with a smile.
"Worrying about her identity... is it possible that she is actually the Dragon King?"
The middle-aged man scratched his head and said.
"I definitely don't mean to target her, I'm just a little shocked. After all, this classmate's power is indeed inexplicably strong. Even our S-class is inferior to the power of speech spirits. Is this kind of blood really normal?
