If I don't have money to go to college, I can only go to slay the dragon

Chapter 997
A lush green appeared under the feet of Lin Nian and Angers. Their feet skimmed the treetops. Two railroad tracks were raised up to form a cableway, and a transparent office was suspended to fly across a wide "forest". They walked through the fish tank. When we arrived at the botanical garden, it was just that the botanical garden was not as lush and lush as imagined. On the contrary, it looked a little depressed. Under the artificial sunlight above the head, a small number of animals inhabited the woodland, and occasionally looked at the movement above the head, and lost it after a few moments. If you are interested, continue to rest.

The change of environment interrupted the conversation between Angers and Lin Nian, and Angers patiently smiled and waited for Lin Nian to watch the sudden change of scenery.

"Last time the King of Bronze and Fire disturbed the ground, and some facilities in the ice cellar were severely damaged, but fortunately, the Botanical Garden escaped the catastrophe with the advantage of the 'Golden Triangle' because it was hidden in the gap between the mountains. However, the impact of the magma that passed through when it was pulled out of the surface still caused a fire, but fortunately, EVA activated the fire protection system of the entire ice cellar in the first place to save a large number of animal and plant samples." Angers took two steps forward and stood in Lin Nian Looking down at the green scenery in the botanical garden.

"There are more than 12 plants and 1.5 animals. After the disaster, the sample library has shrunk by nearly two-thirds, but it is gratifying that due to the movement of the earth veins, the area of ​​the underground crack where the botanical garden is located is larger than the original expansion." It is 0.6 times wider, and the space of the entire ice cellar is also [-] times larger, which means that after reconstruction, Kassel College will only be more prosperous than before.”

Lin Nian looked at the panda curled up on the tall curved bamboo in the bamboo forest basking in the artificial sun, "Is this the Noah's Ark that the college is preparing for the flood? Even if the landmark building is destroyed, it can be transferred to the ground immediately to continue the work." Bar?"

"This idea was originally conceived during the construction of the 'Ice Cellar'. It can also be regarded as a temporary shelter in wartime. Once EVA detects that there is a 'Prime Ancient Quanxian'-level World-Exterminating Word Spirit, or a devastating nuclear attack is about to When it falls on our heads, the air defense alarm will be sounded 1 to 3 minutes in advance to warn, and all the students and teachers will be evacuated into the "ice cellar" in an orderly manner." Angers circled his arms and watched the prosperity of the reconstruction said the botanical garden.

"Will that day happen? The end of the world."

"If you look at the trend of the current external situation, I think the answer I can give is pessimistic." Anger said,

"We have to be prepared. The world is already hanging on a precarious steel rope. Every time the dragon king recovers, it will shake the steel rope. Countless people fall into the abyss in the disaster. I am secretly happy, because there are fewer competitors. Looking at it pessimistically, I think that we may start to fight each other on the ropes before we reach the other shore. The purpose we seek is the same - to reserve the location of the Paradise on the other shore in advance, and everyone firmly believes that There is no doubt that if all the old gods die on the way, then the one who reaches the end will naturally be the new god."

Silence, long silence.

"Principal, do you know that the Executive Department sent the 'Owlbird' team to Chicago to arrest me?"

"I know. Although I have never approved the relevant documents, this document was sent directly from the school board to the office of the executive department via Norma. So, don't complain too much about Professor Schneider, you should know that he is directly responsible People have always been the board of directors, don't make it too difficult for professors."

"I know." Lin Nian nodded, "That's not the point I want to say, I'm talking about the release of a fourth-generation seed in Chicago."

Angers raised his head slightly but did not express or respond.

"Don't you ask me why I did this?" Lin Nian waited for a while before blaming or comforting him. He looked at Anger and said, "I just thought that the principal who is full of hatred and anger towards the Dragon Clan would treat me after knowing this. Disappointed."

"Disappointed? No. But there will still be curiosity." Ange looked at the lush botanical garden with his pocket in his pocket and said, "Can you tell me, as the dragon slayer of Kassel College, what you think in this operation?" Yes, what made you make up your mind to do this 'rebellious' behavior in the eyes of outsiders?"

"Principal, you mentioned that we humans and hybrids living in this world are like crawling on a rope, but I think it's not just humans crawling on this rope for survival." Lin Qing said in a voice.

"Oh? Why do you say that?"

"Has the principal understood the doomsday theory that has become very popular in recent years?"

"Will the world end in 2012?" Angers asked.

"The prophecy of the Mayans." Lin Nian directly pointed out the essence of the post-apocalyptic theory.

"Of course I remember, and there are even researches. The most widely discussed form of doomsday is a large earthquake caused by the movement of the earth's crust. The equipment department of Walter alheim even organized a group to watch the movie "2012", thinking that if that day comes, they will How to build a Garden of Eden that is not affected by the world—By the way, the location of the Garden of Eden is limited, and they are planning to sell 'boat tickets' just like in the movie." The headmaster put his hands in his pockets and shrugged, "But again, Are you referring to the prophecy of the Mayans, specifically about the five 'solar calendars'?"

"Well, yes." Lin Nian nodded, "In the testable historical records, the Mayans created the 'solar calendar', thinking that the history of this world is not a cycle, but a straight line, just like the rope you said , There are five solar calendars, the first four solar calendars Human civilization was destroyed in four kinds of disasters, Matraktili was submerged in floods, Iekotel was destroyed by wind snakes, Quiya was burned by fire and rain Velo, Zondriric who fell into the earth."

"Earth, fire, wind, and water, somehow correspond to the powers of the four supreme beings." Anger said.

"What's interesting is that although human civilization was destroyed in the first four solar calendars, it was only the destruction of civilization, and the world was still moving forward. Only the records of the fifth solar calendar were unclear because in the fifth solar calendar Then there is nothingness, nothingness, and the end of the world. After the fifth disaster, there will be no so-called world." Lin Nian said lightly, "If the fifth disaster will completely destroy the world, then the so-called Dragon King, Can the supreme beings also take care of themselves?"

"I read the history of the Dragon Clan in the library, and found that the most powerful existence ever, the black emperor known as the Dragon Emperor, died of the rebellion of the kings. They defeated the Black King but could not really kill him. He, so in the days that followed, we feared his return anxiously." Lin Nian said, "The rebirth of the Black King means the destruction of the world. This view is common to both the mixed race and the dragon race. Not reminiscent of the end of the fifth solar calendar as prophesied by the Mayans."

"But I have a very vague feeling. The purpose of the dragon kings' recovery is not purely to destroy human beings. They do hate human beings and regard human beings as an enemy that must be eliminated, but the reason for this is definitely not the so-called 'hatred'. They just think that human beings are a kind of hindrance, a stumbling block to achieve their real purpose, so these threatening ethnic groups who hinder them must be cleaned up in advance. It seems to make sense in this way, the destruction of human civilization in the four solar calendars, It is a sign of more frequent dragon activities towards the end of the fifth solar calendar."

"Not only human beings, but those revived dragon kings or the entire dragon group, they are also the crawlers on the steel cable that you exemplified, principal, but those supremes are too huge. It is a disaster for humans, so we have to get rid of them, push their corpses into the abyss, or eat their corpses to become more powerful rope climbers, and become stronger so that”

"Facing the final test at the end of the rope." Anger said slowly, "Ned Hogg, the Black King."

Lin Nian paused and turned his head to look at Angers, who also looked at him and said, "The prophecies of the Mayans are not simple legends. If you dig deeper, you will find that humans never left those prophecies. From the beginning to the end, it was only the narrator of the prophecy."

"Dragon?"

"Yes, it is the Dragon Clan who left the prophecy. That is the prophecy of the Dragon Clan. In the civilization of the Dragon Clan, the world is a single-track track, and the destruction of the world is the inevitable end." Anger said, "Norse mythology is influenced by the Dragon Clan. One of the deepest myths, do you remember what the end of Norse mythology is?"

"Twilight of the gods." Lin Qingnian said.

"The doomed end of the twilight of the gods, the gods are worried about this, the main god Odin even built the Hall of Valkyrie, and ordered the Valkyrie Valkyrie to introduce the souls of the heroes into it, training martial arts all day long, polishing the body, using fine wine And gourmet recuperation state, in order to face the inescapable ultimate." Angers said, "The so-called 'ultimate' refers to the resurrection of the black king, at the end of the rope is the black emperor hidden in history, who They can't escape the twilight of the gods. All they can do is continue to resort to war. The weak flee to hide from the world. This is the destined path woven by the three goddesses of fate. The fall of each god is recorded on the cloth. You can't escape your destiny."

"The biggest enemy of the mixed race has always been the giant dragon hidden in the shadow of history." Anger said, "The dragons fear it, and humans fear it. It is our common enemy."

"Then why have humans and dragons never cooperated in a real sense?" Lin Nian asked in a low voice, "Since we all have a common enemy, we should cooperate."

"I don't know." Angers said, "but I can tell you an interesting thing. The history of the struggle between humans and dragons has lasted for thousands of years. In these thousands of years, there is an unwritten but observable law, that is, Dragons with extreme malice towards human beings are always noble-blooded beings, such as the next-generation species and the first-generation kings. According to my investigation, these great beings usually have surprisingly similar action trajectories. They quickly integrate into the environment after resurrection, After accumulating strength and recovering the dragon body, a plan for the destruction of human civilization will be launched immediately."

"On the contrary, the weaker the dragons are, the third, fourth, or even fifth generation, they will be significantly less malicious towards humans, and some of them will even hide in humans to try to coexist with them. The sheer malice toward humanity that those kings resemble."

Lin Nian thought of Shao Nanyin at this moment, his face moved slightly but he didn't speak.

"Humans' hatred of dragons is traceable, but what about dragons' anger towards humans? Is it just because humans have usurped this world that originally belonged to them? There has never been such a large-scale war between humans and dragons that has swept the world in history?" Anger whispered,

"However, those monarchs are still furious about the existence of human beings. They can't wait to wipe out the existence of human civilization on the surface. Many people think this is a kind of 'ideological stamp', but I don't think so, because Nothing can leave a stencil on the supreme, even the black emperor, those supremes have united to kill him, I can only think that those dragon kings would rather destroy human beings than cooperate with human beings to face the established There is a reason for the 'Twilight of the Gods', and this reason also directly involves the secret of the fall of the Black King, and even directly leads to the whole picture of the truth of the dragon civilization!"

After a long silence, the transparent office passed through the botanical garden and entered the crack of the underground mountain. In the darkness, Lin Nian heard Anger say again, "Lin Nian, I am not annoyed or angry that you let go of the fourth generation. You don't need to explain and apologize to me, because this is your decision, after all, this incident will not change your position at all."

Lin Nian looked up at Ange's indifferent profile in surprise.

The headmaster continued to speak to him slowly: "Lin Nian, what is the position of the secret party? Dragon slaying, what is the purpose of slaying the dragon? Perhaps in the eyes of many people, I continue to be active on the battlefield of slaying the dragon for revenge. , but they don't really know me, I am the last survivor of the original Lionheart, and the origin of my hatred of dragons can be traced back to that rainy night in 'Summer's Mourning'."

Lin Nian tilted his head slightly.

"In the eyes of many people, Hilbert Jean Angers died from that day, and only the vengeful ghost in a black suit in the eyes of the world walked out of the manor that rainy night. I can live today because I stayed on that day forever I live for vengeance, but I also live for them, I realize their unrealized ideals, and I lift their bonfires to the altar."

Angers said, "The founder of the Lion Heart Club and the named person of Kassel College, Menek Cassel, he once watched the sailboats floating under the bridge with me on the Bridge of Sighs in Cambridge University, He told me that if one day the tide rises, all the boats on the river will capsize, and the stone bridge we stand on will be washed away, what will you do then? I told him that I will swim against the flood to the upper reaches, At all costs to keep everything I cherish downstream, the stone bridge, the boat, and the Cambridge girl passing by holding a book on the bridge.

"After hearing my answer, Menek held my hand and told me about the existence of the mixed-race world, saying that he had an Ark plan to save all mankind, and invited me to join the mysterious organization that was then called the Abrahamic Blood Pact. But the Abrahamic Blood Pact, the Secret Party, and Kassel College, no matter what they are called or how they are called, the purpose of our gathering together is always for the continuation and stability of the human race. On this road, we will experience Many life and death, many love and hatred, but our mission will never change. Even now, as long as I stand on the stone bridge in my memory, I can see the starting point of the water flow and hear the old man beside me Speaking to me, I walked out of the manor on a rainy night not only for revenge, but also for the mission of fulfilling my old friend's ambition, for which I will do whatever it takes."

"So Lin Nian, in my opinion, as long as there is no principled error in the starting point and purpose, then everything you do can be forgiven, and it is not a big deal, because I know very well that your purpose is always impartial Although the process and twists and turns are different, they still lead to the same goal in the end." Anger looked at Lin Nian with his head turned, "When I knew Cheng Shuangfan came back alive, I knew that your position has never changed, so in my opinion, the school board Questioning your loyalty has always been nonsense, and the school board, they are by no means stupid, they also know that this is just a talking point, a bargaining chip for them to gain more benefits at the negotiating table."

"But this time I messed up a lot of things." Lin Nian said.

"Are you referring to the SS-level document?" The principal smiled, "Maybe you don't know, but that document is a 'gift' that the school board has carefully found, in order to repair the relationship with you. And repairing the relationship with you is to allow you to better achieve their other goals. This time, there were indeed many accidents. The change of the situation made them think that there is a better way to 'use' you, whether it is Showing weakness and coercion, or appropriate threats and coercion, are all methods. Those people in the school board are real interest-seekers and strategists. You don’t need to try to game with them in terms of calculations. It’s up to old guys like me to check and balance them. You just have to do your own thing.”

"But I handed over so many excuses intentionally or unintentionally this time, principal, can you withstand their offensive?" Lin Nian looked at Angers apologetically.

"Well, the situation this time is indeed unfavorable to us, but it's not to the point of throwing in the towel. The school board is also very smart. They know very well that you are now the secret party's facade and force deterrent, so it is absolutely Impossible to really give up on yours. I think the worst you can do is get expelled and then give you a 'chance' to turn your life around and actually be a knife in the hands of the school board for them or something"

"This is already bad, okay!? So what will happen to you, principal, in the worst case?"

"I was probably impeached by the school board, deprived of the voting rights of the school board, completely withdrawn from the political arena of the Abrahamic Blood Pact, and then returned to my small island villa in the Borate Islands to spend the rest of my life, only occasionally going to Chicago. Find old friends in the manor to play chess, drink tea and so on." The old guy said thoughtfully.

Lin Nian stared at Ange with the white eyes taught by Lu Mingfei until he raised his head and smiled and explained, "Of course, I won't let that happen. I haven't reached the age of retirement yet. My principal's office is It was only completed half a month ago, and I was thinking of finding time to repaint the bookshelves, and replace the railings of the stairs with all walnut wood."

"Walk." Lin Nian sighed.

The office elevator passed through the thick cracks of the mountain, and when the natural light was turned on again, a black pyramid appeared in front of Lin Nian!The hard black stone forms a spectacular masterpiece. Each stone face is carved with patterns and filled with molten copper. Unlike other pyramids, it has a fifth face, and the patterns on each face are Mayan. Man lost text.

The elevator stopped at the base of the pyramid. Lin Nian walked out of the office made of glass. Angers followed him and introduced the origin of the pyramid. Capital used a [-]-ton large container ship to transport it back, and every stone was marked and transported to the ice cellar for assembly."

"It's not just for achieving a miracle achievement in the academy, is it?" Lin Nian looked up at the top of the pyramid, where he vaguely felt some illusory things emitting signals. Standing under the pyramid felt like turning his face That stinging feeling that sticks to the front of the TV.

"Do you still remember the 'commandments' that enveloped the entire college for 24 hours? The words of the vice-principal." Anger said, "It is impossible to achieve that kind of grandeur by manpower alone. The vice-principal can do this by relying on That’s it. Rather than being a spectacle, it’s more useful as a speech booster.”

"Like Professor X's brain wave booster? The secret party still has this kind of black technology?" Lin Nian was a little surprised.

"According to Norma's record, if there is really a large amount of explosives, such as guided missiles and nuclear weapons, falling on Kassel College, and the anti-aircraft guns cannot completely protect the safety of the college, then the first plan is to find a Students or professors with defensive speech spirits let him sit on the top of the pyramid, and then activate the alchemy matrix through the vice principal, and strengthen the speech spirit hundreds of times through the pyramid to resist the devastating nuclear strike and reduce subsequent damage. Anger said, "Of course, it's another matter if it succeeds. After all, the current situation is not so bad that someone will drop a nuclear bomb on us, but according to Norma's simulation calculations, the success rate is quite high."

"how many?"

"Hmm, 43%? Like."

"Half the probability is not there, is that still high?" Lin Nian was stunned.

"The probability of being able to survive the threat of a nuclear explosion is already very high. Moreover, the purpose of this plan is not to turn Kassel College into a fortress, but to block the first wave of blows as much as possible, and provide students with Fight for the survival time of evacuation." Angers said, "After all, if there is such a day that the nuclear bomb will fall on our heads, it must not be just a simple one."

Lin Nian was silent about this. In the desperate situation of the doomsday, even he can only protect himself. All he can do now is to avoid that day as much as possible.

"Let's go, this is not the destination of our journey." Anger walked in front, wearing a black suit, and led Lin Nian towards the inside of the pyramid, "Didn't you want to know the remains of the King of Bronze and Fire?" Where is it hidden by us, and only by letting you see it with your own eyes can you be completely at ease?"
