Moreover, it is impossible for secular authorities to regulate mixed-race individuals.
The power and influence wielded by hybrids are fundamentally different from worldly power and influence. Moreover, to put it bluntly, if President Lucian of the United States wanted to use nuclear weapons, he would need to go through several procedures. But under the control of hybrids, using nuclear weapons is as easy as snapping their fingers; they can use them whenever they want.
Tonight seemed unusually lively, so Gu Ran stopped reading and logged into her Night Watcher account 'Ranran' to see what fun things were happening on the forum.
The fire is being discussed on the forum, and some people have already started betting on whether the fire can be extinguished before midnight.
Gu Ran used his online banking account to bet $100 that he could destroy it.
After he placed his bet, he saw that the night watchman, who was also the vice principal, had posted a thread: "What kind of trouble is the equipment department up to in the middle of the night? I, who was just trying to stay hidden, have been brought out of the shadows!"
The person replying on the second floor was Angers, who questioned why the Night Watchman, as the vice-principal, was posting here instead of directing the firefighting efforts!
The night watchman said he drank a bottle and a half of brandy. Do you want me to go into the fire to put it out, or do you want someone else to go into the fire to rescue me?
The two men cursed and swore, then turned their guns on each other, cursing the lunatics in the equipment department for causing such a commotion.
Gu Ran then commented downstairs, "How about I organize the students to throw some grenades into the well to add to the fun? Just like setting off firecrackers for the New Year! After all, we didn't set them off for the New Year before!"
“I agree!” said Professor Schneider from the Executive Department. “Please grant me authorization, Principal, to deploy the bunker buster!”
The night watchman said, "Gu Ran, as an outstanding student representative, you should now organize the students to fight the fire! I'm giving you the authority to command on-site!"
"Don't cause me any more trouble. I've already arranged for Professor Manstein to put out the fire. When it comes to putting out a fire, we need to find reliable people. I'm logging off now. I'm going to Paris for a spring fashion party soon!"
"And bring me some whiskey, please," said the Night's Watchman.
Less than a minute after the old headmaster of Angers went offline, another earth-shaking explosion occurred, and another burst of flame shot into the sky from the well opening.
Gu Ran left a comment under the Equipment Department's post: "You guys didn't imprison a Charizard down there, did you? Couldn't you have used a Poké Ball to capture it first?"
The Equipment Department responded in a post: "We are conducting experiments. Explosions are normal. There will be two or three more rounds of explosions, which may be even stronger. Please be prepared."
Yes, explosions are quite common at Kassel College, because the equipment department conducts various weapons tests and manufactures all sorts of bombs every now and then.
Therefore, the eruption of flames at Kassel College is more frequent than earthquakes in Japan.
At this time, the biology museum in the ice cellar posted that due to the earthquake, the snake breeding pond had cracked, and about 200 snakes of various kinds were escaping from different passages, including 12 king cobras, 2 Amazonian giant anacondas, and 20 lancehead vipers... They hoped that teachers and students could help catch the snakes!
The snakes in the biology museum are bred to maintain biodiversity, so there are all kinds of venomous snakes. But don't worry if you get bitten; the medical room has antivenom. However, you'd better remember what kind of snake bit you, otherwise using the wrong antivenom could be fatal...
"Damn it! I found a giant Amazonian anaconda climbing up my clock tower! Teachers and classmates, help me!" the Night Watchman shouted in a post.
Gu Ran replied, "Vice Principal, please rest assured, the Amazonian giant anaconda is non-toxic!"
The Night Watchman posted: "Of course I know it's not poisonous, but it's nearly 15 meters long! It could strangle a buffalo in the jungle! @BiologyMuseum, have you fed the snakes tonight?"
The giant anaconda, the snake that inspired the movie "Anaconda," is enormous and can swallow its prey whole.
It might take a long time to swallow a water buffalo, but swallowing a vice principal would be more than enough.
However, no one in the school was worried about the vice principal's safety. What could possibly happen to an S-level vice principal? If anyone was worried, it was whether that giant snake would end up as a snack.
Gu Ran stopped joking around with the Night's Watch and continued reading the posts, eventually coming across Caesar's post:
"Who can get in touch with the Japanese Imperial Family? I'd like to book the Meiji Shrine in Tokyo for just one night, for a wedding."
"What?! Boss Caesar is getting married!"
Will they invite us?
When is it scheduled? Is it during winter or summer vacation?
This is a bounty post, marked in red. After Gu Ran clicked on it, she found that quite a few people were already replying, and in an instant, fifty replies were posted, quickly pushing the post's popularity to the top.
Gu Ran could almost imagine that in another twenty minutes, the paparazzi from the news department would be publishing the headline: "The Student Council President and the Red-Haired Shrine Maiden's Wedding is About to Be Held!"
Meanwhile, the rest of the onlookers will probably set up a secret betting pool to wager whether Lu Mingfei will try to steal the bride, with odds as high as one to a thousand, even higher than the odds of the Chinese national football team qualifying for the World Cup.
Gu Ran closed his laptop and wondered if he should go to the restaurant. After thinking for a moment, he grabbed a deck of cards and went out.
It was past midnight, and the restaurant was bustling with noise because the staff from the school's public works department had put out the fire before midnight and were now having a late-night snack with the staff from the equipment department.
Gu Ran won his $100 bet, which amounted to $50 after deducting his initial investment. It was just a small bet for fun.
Gu Ran looked out from a corner and saw Lu Mingfei's lonely figure in the restaurant.
He was drinking beer and intently devouring a roast chicken. On the table were a piece of smoked pork leg, a beef burger, and a large portion of mashed potatoes... It was unclear whether he was trying to channel his grief and anger into his appetite.
Unbeknownst to Chu Zihang, he sat down next to Lu Mingfei with his tray in hand.
His late-night snack was simple: two fried eggs, oatmeal soaked in milk, and a glass of orange juice.
Gu Ran knew that Chu Zihang was there to comfort Lu Mingfei, but it was just that a straight man was comforting a cowardly man... In short, both of them were a bit clumsy.
Chu Zihang's way of comforting Lu Mingfei was simple: he told Lu Mingfei that if he liked someone, he should go for it, and if Lu Mingfei decided to try to steal the bride, he would definitely come to help.
Chapter 373 Heading to the Island Nation
Chu Zihang was, after all, the president of the Lionheart Society, someone who could rival Caesar at school. So when he spoke up to help Lu Mingfei steal his bride, it was like he was leading the gang into a fight, just like Song Jiang in Liangshan wanted to help Wang Ying marry Hu Sanniang.
But Lu Mingfei didn't dare; he was a coward.
Chu Zihang disliked Lu Mingfei for being so cowardly, because if you don't fight for it, you'll end up with nothing.
Just as he hated his former cowardly self, he hated the child who only dared to run away in the Nibelung rain.
The two exchanged a few more words, but the atmosphere grew increasingly cold.
To persuade Lu Mingfei, Chu Zihang gave his own example, saying that when his mother remarried, a karate kid mocked Chu Zihang, saying that his stepfather was only nice to him because he slept with his mother.
At that time, Chu Zihang's bloodline had not awakened, so he couldn't beat that black belt karate kid. Therefore, he went to the Youth Palace to learn kendo for three years and beat up that kid before graduation.
Next, the parents were called in. Chu Zihang's mother stood up for her son, mocking the other party's genes, and left after paying the medical bills.
After hearing Chu Zihang's story, Lu Mingfei gave his own example, saying that he also got into a fight with a classmate in junior high school because the classmate said that his mother and father had divorced abroad and didn't want him anymore...
After the fight, Lu Mingfei's parents were called in, so he called his aunt. His aunt scolded him severely, made him apologize immediately, and even made him do chores in the hopes of reducing the medical expenses...
Lu Mingfei, head down, ate the fried egg Chu Zihang had given him, his expression hidden in the shadows, and continued:
"Senior, you know what they mean? In China, people are now divided into 'tall, rich, and handsome' and 'losers.' Tall, rich, and handsome guys have tons of girls throwing themselves at them, while losers are just girls' backup options. No, losers aren't even as good as backup options, because backup options can still get going, while losers are like air pumps, only useful when girls need an abortion..."
Chu Zihang was stunned.
He was never suited for ideological work, and to his surprise, he was ridiculed by Lu Mingfei.
"Isn't the best way to forget a relationship to start a new one?" Gu Ran suddenly sat down opposite them. "Even if it's just a crush!"
"That hurts, bro!" Lu Mingfei looked up at Gu Ran with a wry smile, finished Chu Zihang's fried egg, and let out a burp.
Chu Zihang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Gu Ran appear; he was more suitable to be the political commissar than he was.
"I've recently discovered that you're experiencing a surge in romantic luck, and your zodiac sign is on the rise, meaning a new romance is on the horizon!" As she spoke, Gu Ran casually laid out a tarot card on the table. "Draw one, let me do a divination for you."
Lu Mingfei forced himself to stay sober and didn't faint, then drew a tarot card.
"Wow! That's a great hand!" Gu Ran exclaimed with a smile.
Lu Mingfei was both amused and exasperated: "Don't think I don't know English. This card clearly says 'DEATH,' which means death!"
Chu Zihang didn't understand divination, but he had studied religion and knew that the Death card in Tarot symbolized the religious number thirteen, which means death.
“Death also means rebirth, it means that the old must go before the new can come, it means a new beginning…” Gu Ran put away the tarot cards, leaving only the 'Death' card on the table.
He asked Lu Mingfei, "Do you remember the question I asked you more than a year ago? Between a girl who likes you and a girl you like, how would you choose? Do you have an answer to that question now?"
"Me... I wouldn't choose anything! I only choose when I have a choice, otherwise why would I choose anything? I'm just a loser, you rich and handsome guys don't understand me at all!"
Lu Mingfei kicked his foot, which disturbed the empty soda can next to his feet, and then lay down on the dining table and fell fast asleep.
Chu Zihang had drunk quite a bit of beer before he sat down, and now he was drunk.
At this moment, the student council's dance had just ended, and girls dressed in white dresses and lace stockings were skipping and laughing as they passed by the restaurant. When they saw Gu Ran and Chu Zihang, they would throw them a pretty wink and invite the two handsome young men to have another drink together.
Gu Ran smiled and refused, then picked up Lu Mingfei, took the phone that was on the table, and prepared to take him back to the dormitory.
I accidentally touched the power button on Lu Mingfei's iPhone. The screen lit up and the wallpaper appeared. It was a bronze roulette wheel with the pointer pointing to the halfway point. There were two health bars left, and the background was a skull symbol.
“Gaming pros usually finish the game with only one life, and now they have two! They’re making a killing!” Gu Ran chuckled softly.
*……*……*
Angers claimed he was going to Paris to attend the spring fashion show, but in reality he was having a meeting with the equipment department in the ice cellar.
The people in the equipment department are all lunatics, and all of them are male lunatics. They are all bomb fanatics like "demolition geniuses". They generally won't go to the principal unless they need money.
If you really need to find the principal, then you must be in a lot of trouble.
Indeed, not long ago, the Moniach, the ship that carried out the mission in the Three Gorges operation, recorded the heartbeat of a dragon while on a mission in Japanese waters.
Angers, who has a medical doctorate, immediately recognized the heartbeat as that of a large animal when he heard it.
The Monyach was in Japanese waters in search of the Lenin.
In the year the Soviet Union collapsed, someone stole a dragon embryo from Black Swan Harbor in the Arctic Circle of Siberia and transported it out on the Lenin, but the Lenin eventually sank in Japanese waters, and its whereabouts are unknown.
While searching for the Lenin, the Monyach inadvertently discovered the heartbeat of an embryo deep in the ocean.
This heartbeat can be heard more than 8000 meters below the surface of the ocean trench.
The equipment department said that at this time, the Japanese branch had taken over the Moniach and were eager for the embryo.
Angers asked the equipment department how they determined that the embryo was a dragon and not a giant whale.
The equipment department compared the heartbeat signals preserved during the Greenland incident with the currently discovered heartbeat signals and found that they were exactly the same, thus confirming the finding.
Upon hearing this, Angers knew that the embryo needed to be dealt with as soon as possible, and inquired about the equipment department's plan.
The equipment department said that sixteen bunker-buster missiles could be used for remote-controlled demolition. The downside is that improper operation could cause Japan to sink, because the island nation's foundation is very unstable. It is located at the junction of the Eurasian Plate and the Pacific Plate, and underwater volcanic eruptions and earthquakes are very frequent.
Therefore, the massive underground explosion could very likely trigger a series of chain reactions. However, the equipment department believed that even if they didn't blow it up this time, Japan would eventually sink anyway, so they might as well blow it up now...
Angers is not a terrorist, so of course he would not agree to such a decision that would directly lead to the deaths of more than 100 million people.
So ask the equipment department if there are any other solutions that don't involve bombing and sinking Japan.
The final conclusion was to send specialists in a deep-sea submersible to the seabed at a depth of over 8000 meters to conduct a precise blast using refined sulfur bombs.
However, the specialists operating the submersible must have a sufficiently superior bloodline. Otherwise, once they enter the area where the dragon embryo is located, the nerves of ordinary hybrids will definitely be disturbed, and only those with superior bloodlines can resist it.
The equipment department has already modified the deep-sea submersible and sent it to the Japanese branch.
Angers hoped the Equipment Department could send technicians to maintain the equipment, but the Equipment Department refused, saying that the people at the Japanese branch were all crazy and abnormal...
