Dragon Raja: Dragon Slaying Begins with System Hosting

Page 167

But not having any ideas now doesn't mean I won't have any in the future. People's thoughts can change, and it's enough if Xia Mi is moved at some point.

However, Xia Mi is quite independent, so it's probably difficult to move her...

Should we ultimately just reveal our hand directly? But this kind of emotional person... it's not easy to balance micro-management!

The system believes that people with this personality type are more extreme and are prone to having thoughts of mutual destruction. If this were an ordinary person, it might lead to an extreme scene of people crying their eyes out.

Lu Mingfei would definitely not be in that situation, but it could easily cause other ships to capsize! A capsized ship isn't impossible to save, but that would be a huge amount of work!

……

"Why is Lu Mingfei bringing up this topic today when he has nothing better to do?"

Back in her small house, Xia Mi lay down on the bed, pondering the things Lu Mingfei had talked about earlier that day: the world without dragons and their personalities.

Feeling a little confused, she turned over and buried her face in the pillow.

Sometimes she felt that this was how her life would be, and that was fine. She lived in a small rented room, and although she occasionally felt lonely, at least she didn't have to fear the pursuit of death.

Without the confidence to gain freedom, who knows, the Dragon King might come knocking on your door at any moment, killing you instantly, so you'd never have to be lonely or afraid again...

……

"Xia Mi seems a bit difficult to pursue. Should we change our target?"

Lu Mingfei looked at the system's analysis logs, and the more he read, the more his head ached.

Xia Mi is the kind of person who doesn't have much interest in romance; she has a kind of "being indifferent to desires makes one strong" quality.

It's not that it's impossible to break through, but the system analysis suggests that going to great lengths for her is not worthwhile. Stepping onto this kind of ship for the first time could easily create strong resistance later on.

Is it worth it?

The system thinks that's not worth it at all. It would be much easier to deal with Xia Mi once she's free, and it would be much easier for her to poach Lu Mingfei then.

The question is, what does Xia Mi think freedom is?

"Money?" Lu Mingfei asked, and Xia Mi said no.

Lu Mingfei asked her what gave her the confidence to be free.

Xia Mi said she didn't know, but she just felt it wasn't enough, and right now all she could think about was money.

This is damn... they've gotten tangled up with Lu Mingfei.

The system is now only planning one last try—to move her. If that doesn't work, it will lower her priority and completely banish her to the sidelines.

Compared to winning over Xia Mi, it's obviously easier to let other men get close to her in the meantime, as long as Xia Mi doesn't fall for any other men during this period.

It's okay if Xia Mi is attracted to someone; she can create some difficulties for that person to discourage them, and then use that person's template to her advantage...

Well, that's roughly the plan.

……

"Brother Tang, are you doing alright in the lab?"

"It's going well," Old Tang said to the girl on the other end of the phone. "How about you over there? Are you settling into the new job? How's it going?"

"That's great!" the girl said. "Thank you, Brother Tang."

"It's nothing, it's nothing. I already said I've found a benefactor, so this kind of thing is no big deal for me," Old Tang said casually, chatting with the girl.

He used to be quite capable, living in Brooklyn, a notoriously poor neighborhood in the United States. There were only so many things he could do, and this was the first time he had been able to help someone in a significant way.

In his view, pulling the girl out of the mire was a great deed.

Otherwise, as the Japanese assistant said, the deeper one gets into this industry, the more one gradually loses oneself and drifts with the wind... After all, that Japanese assistant originally worked for the Inuyama family of the Herakiya family in Japan, and he could say that the kind of thing where girls gradually fall into depravity was commonplace for him.

From starting as a cashier/concierge to working on the sidelines, and then to making big money...

Old Tang felt that he had finally done something remarkable in his life, although he was in a terrible situation. Odin was chasing him every night and would come into his dreams to disturb his sleep.

But he still didn't want the girl to know his situation and the pressure he was under, or to know that he was having problems and worrying about him.

Since you've finally done something good, just let the other person be happy. Anyway, she can't really help much, so there's no need to worry about your stress.

After hanging up with the girl, Lao Tang called Lu Mingfei again. As soon as the call connected, he immediately asked, "Boss, how did it go? Is there any way to deal with that Odin?"

He had one attitude towards girls, and another towards his boss. Old Tang was counting on his boss to save him, but he hadn't seen his boss come to the factory for several days, and he felt that things weren't looking good for him...

The boss has run away; that's for sure...

The system said, "Currently, we are still at a loss, but don't be discouraged. We are prepared to try other methods."

"What method?" Old Tang's spirits lifted, his tone filled with eagerness.

"We're preparing to take action against the Three Gorges to obtain more information about dragons." The system's tone was heavy: "Only dragons can fight dragons. The methods used by ordinary humans and hybrids probably won't work against Odin. We can only hope that the Bronze City in the Three Gorges has a different approach to your situation."

Using dragon-related methods and knowledge to deal with dragons? Old Tang thought it made perfect sense!

So he said, "Then I wish you success, boss, and that you can take over Bronze City, obtain information and records about dragons, and learn the dragon race's methods for dealing with dragons."

"Yes, I'm in the Three Gorges area right now, and I'll be taking action soon."

"Okay, then I won't bother you any longer, boss." Old Tang nodded and hung up the phone.

Knowing what his boss was busy with, he breathed a sigh of relief. At least he knew his boss was still trying to save him, right?

But... Norton...

Old Tang stretched out his hand, looked at his palm, and vaguely saw his five fingers turning into dragon claws... His head was itchy, and he couldn't help but reach out and scratch his head.

Why does Odin keep chasing after me? Why is my life so miserable?

After suffering for most of his life, he finally had a glimmer of hope, finally gained some ability, only to be tainted by something filthy, and it was Odin, whom even his boss couldn't control...

Life is tough, Old Tang sighed.

He looked at himself in the mirror, his furrowed brows still furrowed, bearing absolutely no resemblance to the imposing King of Bronze and Fire, Norton!

Now we can only hope that the boss has a smooth trip to the Three Gorges, that he can retrieve the dragon-related information from the Bronze City, and then find a way to deal with Odin.

Old Tang glanced at his phone when it chimed with a notification.

Xiao Yuan: "Brother Tang, I made some fermented soybean paste from my hometown and sent it to you by express delivery. Please remember to sign for it."

Old Tang: "Mmm, thank you."

According to the Japanese assistant, who had extensive knowledge of the sex industry, girls who had worked in it tended to have high emotional intelligence but also a deep inner emptiness. They weren't short of money, but their hearts were often impoverished… and Xiaoyuan…

Old Tang was somewhat troubled, and even became a little irritable.

If only I were Norton, the King of Bronze and Fire, I would immediately turn my gun on Odin and kill him.

So what if he's the Dragon King? I am the Dragon King too! My sword is still sharp!

Chapter 198 Samson

Old Tang's frustration was useless; he could only immerse himself in the laboratory and continue working on recycled metals, using this as a distraction to alleviate his anxiety.

But Odin still relentlessly pursued him, like a persistent leech, haunting him and treating his dreams like a public toilet, freely entering and exiting.

Every time he saw Odin, his scalp would tingle and his head would feel itchy. Sometimes when he looked in the mirror, he would have the illusion that his head had become pointy.

Kassel College quietly deployed its forces to this small coastal city, attempting to delve deeper and uncover the truth of the matter.

They dared not act rashly; the head-on blow in the Greenland waters made Angers, to some extent, more cautious and prudent.

Moreover, they were facing Odin, who had been resurrected for who knows how long and might have already returned to his peak.

……

The Three Gorges area has a lot of people, about a hundred or so, who look at it up close, but from a distance, it's actually not worth mentioning.

Once the distribution is complete, the system will begin the plan.

First, we need to lure the dragon out of its cave.

The crack above the Bronze City hasn't closed, which is a good thing; otherwise, digging dozens of meters of soil would be quite troublesome.

However, it's impossible for Lu Mingfei to go into the water. The restrictions are too great in water that's tens of meters deep; he could really die in the water.

Dangerous hybrids of the Japanese Snake-Headed Eight Families, offer your hearts! Let me see your loyalty!

The two water-elemental hybrids selected by the system went into the water without hesitation.

They were highly professional; even knowing that this dive might mean facing dragons, they jumped in without hesitation.

This is also inseparable from the system's careful selection. They wanted passionate young men in their late teens and early twenties. With the addition of bonuses and war death compensation, early training, and last-minute arrangements while the iron was hot, they were able to get involved without hesitation.

A reply came quickly from underwater: "You have safely reached the bottom and are standing on the Bronze City. There have been no accidents or special circumstances."

"Find the gates of Bronze City," the system immediately said.

"receive."

Then came the sound of their rhythmic breathing.

After a long silence, they replied again: "We've found what appears to be a city gate."

They took a photo and sent it back to the ship.

On the city wall of Bronze City, a human face seems to have been carved there.

"Alive..."

The system flipped through the books at Kassel College and learned that this thing was a type of lock used by the dragon race, and it was quite intelligent. It was made by giving metals a "soul" through regeneration, allowing them to be used as smart locks.

The door has been found, but how to open it is a problem... The system previously used Vacuum Serpent to probe Bronze City, and the walls of Bronze City, which are over a meter thick, cannot be easily blown open with a single C4 bomb.

However, this smart door lock does provide a way to open the door to some extent. If it weren't so clever, the system would really only allow people to carry explosives down the door.

"Wait, we'll send someone down to give you the blood of Yamata no Orochi to try."

According to the information from the Kassel College, living beings can be temporarily satisfied with high-purity dragon blood.

It can only be said that Kassel College is indeed something special. After fighting against the dragons for so many years and studying them relentlessly, they have indeed obtained a lot of useful information.

Lu Mingfei also possessed dragon blood, including the blood of the Yamata no Orochi and the blood of the Dragon King sacrificed to the White King.

The question is whether it will be widely accepted. If it's not, then a large amount of dragon blood will be needed to satisfy it...

The person carrying the Yamata no Orochi's dragon blood quickly went down and delivered the blood. There were only ten milliliters, but that was already a lot, as there wasn't much purified, usable dragon blood to begin with.

A test tube containing 10 milliliters of dragon blood was placed into the mouth of the bronze human-faced creature. The bronze human-faced creature seemed to smell blood like a wolf, and immediately came to life, greedily sucking the dragon blood from the test tube.
