Dragon Raja: Dragon Slaying Begins with System Hosting

Page 178

"Fake..." Old Tang shook his head, looking at Xia Mi with a face full of question marks, "Do I have a grudge against you? I don't have a grudge against you, do I?"

"Cough cough, it seems you are indeed badly injured. You didn't even hear what I just said." Xia Mi put down the dragon bone cross and said, "But it's good that you're alright."

"Could you pay some of the medical expenses?" Old Tang asked instinctively.

He wants money. With enough money, he can live the life he wants and won't have to work overtime anymore.

But Xia Mi immediately jumped up upon hearing this, "That won't do! Besides, my salary plus bonuses isn't even as much as yours..."

"It's good that you're alright, it's good that you're alright." The system quickly interrupted the two clowns' conversation and asked, "Xia Mi, how did you get back so quickly?"

“Take a plane, you forgot Su Enxi’s plane? Driving over 1000 kilometers takes a long time, but flying is only an hour or two, right?” Xia Mi explained before asking, “What exactly is the situation now? I see the online discussions are going on like crazy.”

Old Tang glanced at Lu Mingfei, and the system returned a look.

"Now sitting before you is the great Bronze King of Bronze and Fire." Old Tang straightened his posture and said, "I'm a very vengeful person. I'll remember what you just did. You're going to die."

"Old Tang, are you the King of Bronze and Fire?"

Upon hearing this, Xia Mi's tone immediately became surprised and uncertain, but she quickly replied jokingly, "Then I, Xia Mi, am still the king of the earth and mountains!"

"Stop fooling around and get down to business. What happened to Odin's Nibelungen? Judging from your condition, you weren't there, were you? Otherwise, how could you have burned all the hair? If Xiaoyuan saw this, she probably wouldn't even recognize you."

Upon hearing Xiaoyuan's name mentioned, Lao Tang subconsciously touched his burned eyebrows and hair... Oh no, he really looks like a hard-boiled egg, and he doesn't know how long it will take for them to grow back.

Seeing that Xia Mi didn't believe Lao Tang's words, the system said softly, "The situation is that Norton, the King of Bronze and Fire, fought a great battle with Odin. Inside Odin's Nibelungen, Norton released the Candle Dragon, which directly blew up Odin's Nibelungen."

"But that Odin was just a puppet. Xia Mi, do you still remember Chu Zihang's father?"

“I remember, that Chu Tianjiao. He stayed in Odin’s Nibelungen to cover the retreat.” Xia Mi nodded, then asked, “Was that puppet Odin Chu Tianjiao in disguise?”

"Yes, he didn't die. He survived thanks to the powerful body that Odin modified. He managed to withstand the Candle Dragon released by Norton."

"Huh?" Xia Mi immediately sensed something was wrong: "Odin's puppet can fight Norton and even force Norton to release the Candle Dragon?"

Is this reasonable? No, is Norton too weak, or is Odin too powerful now? He can easily create a puppet with the strength of a Dragon King...

“Norton just hatched from the dragon cocoon, and it was forcibly hatched,” the system explained. “His strength probably hasn’t recovered much, which is why the Odin puppet had a chance to fight.”

The newly born Dragon King wasn't that strong. Although Constantine didn't retaliate when the system brutally attacked him and died cleanly, well, how should I put it...

Judging from its performance, it's about the same as that dragon? And Constantine's true form is much weaker.

"I see..." Xia Mi nodded after hearing this.

The newly born Dragon King was forcibly hatched from its cocoon, and its physical development was extremely incomplete. It was normal for it to be blocked by the puppets created by Odin, and it was also normal for it to be forced to release the Candle Dragon, since it wouldn't even be able to survive if it didn't release the Candle Dragon.

"What about Odin's puppets, Chu Tianjiao and Norton? What's their situation?"

Xia Mi asked with concern.

If we can find Odin's puppet, we can take the opportunity to observe the technology that Odin has mastered.

The situation Lu Mingfei had shown before weighed heavily on her mind. She really felt like an old relic. Technology was advancing rapidly, but it didn't take her along. It seemed like she didn't have a ticket to board this great ship of the new era.

As for Norton, if he were forcibly hatched, a single Candle Dragon would burn him to ashes. Not to mention, he probably fought Odin's puppet first and managed to pick up the scraps!

At the thought, Xia Mi's eyes immediately lit up, and she wished she could go out for a stroll right now and find a dragon king's bone cross...

"Chu Tianjiao has completely lost his memory. I left him with Chu Zihang so he could spend some time with his son and see if he could remember anything. As for Norton..."

The system didn't continue speaking, nor did it look at Old Tang.

"What's wrong with Norton?" Xia Mi pressed, but then she seemed to remember something, glanced at Old Tang, and felt something was wrong, very wrong.

If Old Tang is Norton, Norton should have activated his bloodline after awakening, so she shouldn't have been completely unaware of it.

Moreover, once the Dragon King awakens, he will definitely devour the other personalities within him, as it would be an easy task.

However, it can't be called devouring. When the subconscious of the Dragon King bloodline awakens, before these things are fully awakened, it will unconsciously merge with the human personality. Just like when the White King's hometown was bombed by a nuclear bomb, his first reaction was to run back to his familiar old place to hide and continue developing... Anyway, Old Tang doesn't look like Norton at all.

"do not know."

The system shook its head.

If Xia Mi doesn't understand, then it's just that she's not meant to be. Anyway, Xia Mi probably doesn't have any way to help Old Tang.

Well, given Old Tang's current situation, the system has no solution either.

Norton was apparently targeted by Odin's puppet and fell back into a deep sleep after releasing the Candle Dragon, leaving Don unaffected.

Old Tang himself doesn't know the exact state of Norton's presence on him right now, nor does he know where Norton has hidden the cocoon, or how to peel it off...

"I don't know..." Xia Mi was a little disappointed, then pointed to the dragon bone cross on the ground and asked Lu Mingfei, "Where did you put this dragon bone cross? Where did you put Constantine's dragon bone cross? Are you going to bury those two, ruler and minister, together?"

Norton's whereabouts are unknown, but that doesn't stop her from continuing to plot against Constantine. It's just that she doesn't know where Lu Mingfei put Constantine's Dragon Bone Cross.

However, by using this dragon bone cross in my hand, I might be able to subtly find out where it is...

The moment of truth has arrived to test the trust between their boss and employee. If Lu Mingfei trusts Xia Mi enough, he will let her place the dragon bone cross herself. Once Xia Mi sees Constantine's dragon bone cross, she will definitely grab it without hesitation and run away immediately.

Given her current situation, the only thing she can do is run away as soon as possible, without any hesitation, otherwise she won't even know when or where she will die...

"Just leave it here for now, I'll take it to another place later."

The trust between the boss and the employees has broken down... Xia Mi seems to hear a shattering sound.

The system said, "There are other studies to be done on the Dragon King's dragon bone cross, but quite a few people know about it now... I will carefully hide it away."

Xia Mi nodded with a strained expression: "Boss, you're right. The Dragon King's Dragon Bone Cross is extremely important. It must be stored away properly. We absolutely cannot give anyone else a chance. Otherwise, it will be troublesome if someone else takes it. After all, the Dragon King's Dragon Bone Cross is said to contain the power of the Dragon King's authority. There are too many treacherous people who have their eyes on this power. Once the news leaks out, it will probably attract a lot of attention. At that time, we'll probably be annoyed to death just by guarding against them."

Chapter 208 The Overworked Little Devil

"Chu Zihang, is this your dad?"

Xia Mi looked at the middle-aged man in front of her with concern, who had the same braised egg as Old Tang, and suddenly hesitated.

After all, Odin's puppet was burned to a crisp, and Old Tang was also burned to a crisp... As far as she knew, Odin's Nibelungen was not affected on such a large scale this time.

Did Old Tang also crawl into the Nibelungen and get burned? But how did he survive? Did he, like those Deadpools on the edge, manage to escape the blast radius of Norton Candle Dragon?

After all, Norton's body was too weak in that situation, so it was normal that the power of the Candle Dragon was not complete. Those Dead Servants who escaped the range of the Candle Dragon's explosion came out after smelling the blood of the outside creatures after the Nibelungen was destroyed.

The people at Kassel College are still busy eliminating those Deadpools.

It can only be said that the people from Kassel College were just right. The heavy troops they deployed were just right to quickly annihilate the Dead Servants who fell into Binhai, so that the Dead Servants who entered Binhai were suppressed at an extremely fast speed without making any waves.

But that doesn't make sense. How did Old Tang end up in the Nibelungen? Could it really be Norton...?

Xia Mi frowned deeply, her small lips pursed.

"who are you?"

Chu Tianjiao asked.

Xia Mi came to her senses and explained to him, "I am your son's colleague. The person who saved you is my boss. I am a senior leader in the company my boss owns. My name is Xia Mi."

“I’ve heard Chu Zihang mention your situation before, Uncle. Now I’ve heard from the boss that you were just captured by Odin and used as a puppet substitute, and that you’re not seriously injured. So I came to visit you.”

Chu Tianjiao nodded, but didn't say anything more. After all, the woman in front of him had no theoretical relationship with him, so there was nothing more to say.

But this girl is really pretty!

After Xia Mi finished speaking with Chu Tianjiao, she turned to Chu Zihang and asked, "How is Uncle's health?"

"Let's go outside and talk."

Once outside, Chu Zihang lowered his voice and said to Xia Mi, "My father's physical functions are fine, and his bloodline has been greatly enhanced, to the point where he can transform into a dragon at any time."

"A dragon-shaped hybrid?" Xia Mi asked.

“Yes, but my dad’s bloodline purity has been elevated,” Chu Zihang said. “The doctor said it might be due to Odin’s modifications, and his bloodline has surpassed the level of the next generation.”

Hybrids have their limits. As long as they don't truly become dragons, their upper limit is fixed. And dragon-shaped hybrids represent the limit of hybrids. The rest depends on the purity of their bloodline.

For example, if Erii were to transform into a dragon-shaped hybrid, even without using her Word of Power, there would be a very high probability that she could easily defeat Chu Zihang, who was also a dragon-shaped hybrid.

The difference in bloodline purity is too great. How can a second-generation noble bloodline be the same as a third-generation bloodline?

It's important to understand that in the world of the Dragon Dynasty, dragons are ranked according to their bloodline, a legitimate caste system, not the fake class system that India has created.

In Xia Mi's view, Chu Tianjiao's bloodline level was still at the level of a second-generation species. His strength was merely at a point of perfection where there was no further room for advancement.

There are differences in strength among the various Dragon Kings, and the same is true for the next generation. With the ultimate bloodline of the next generation, combined with the enhancement of alchemy, the dragon-human hybrid can be elevated to its limit. Chu Tianjiao might not be lacking the strength to punch the newborn Norton...

Xia Mi said, "A bloodline that surpasses the level of a next-generation species? Isn't that at the level of a Dragon King? No wonder Uncle lost his memory; it's probably not much different from a body swap."

Chu Zihang had already heard what she said. The mixed-blood doctors of the Snake Clan were quite skilled and theoretically sound, so they could naturally make some related speculations, some of which were similar to what Xia Mi had said.

Xia Mi seems to be quite professional too?

Chu Zihang immediately looked at Xia Mi expectantly, hoping that Xia Mi could say more, preferably reveal the method to restore his father's memories.

However, Xia Mi had already said everything she could. It wasn't that she couldn't say anything more, but this wasn't something she should know, and it could even be said that almost all human hybrids shouldn't know.

Is the understanding of dragons among human hybrids ultimately too superficial?

Facing Chu Ziheng's pleading gaze, Xia Mi blinked her beautiful big eyes and said, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Do you think there's any way to save them?"

"No." Xia Mi shook her head decisively and said, "I'm not a medical student, so I don't know much about these things. I only have a slight understanding of bloodlines."

Chu Tianjiao's amnesia is definitely not just a simple matter of washing away his bloodline and reshaping his body. Odin couldn't possibly be unaware that his puppet was at risk of being captured alive. Once the puppet with the relevant memories was captured alive, Odin would be in trouble.

Therefore, Odin would definitely manually delete the puppet's memories. In that case, it would be difficult to restore them. It's not that it's impossible to restore them, but the cost would be too high. Chu Tianjiao doesn't think it's worth the price at all.

……

After seeing Chu Tianjiao's ultimate second-generation bloodline, Xia Mi immediately went back to Lu Mingfei's side.

The key details regarding the Odin puppet have been clarified, but the possibility that Old Tang might be Norton is something that truly terrifies her.

When Norton's cocoon was placed on Old Tang, she couldn't tell because of the cocoon's concealment. However, Old Tang had already transformed into the King of Bronze and Fire and fought a great battle with Chu Tianjiao. In her mind, there must have been some traces of his bloodline remaining.

But there was nothing there...

No, we need to check again. Also, where exactly did Lu Mingfei put the Dragon Bone Cross? How can we steal it?

Xia Mi frowned the whole way, lost in thought.

Until we returned to Old Tang's room.

The system was still interrogating Old Tang, but Old Tang had actually written down everything he knew and Norton's memories, saying that there wasn't a single drop left.

Well, it seems that Old Tang's limited-time value has been fully squeezed out?
