Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei Returns from Warhammer Retirement

Chapter 60 A Trip to India
"A Nibelungen key, to be exact."

Merlin continued.

"where is it?"

Chu Zihang suppressed his excitement and asked.

"in India."

He told the pair about the source of the news.

Merlin's family is a family of alchemists in Scotland, and the family has handed down many ancient books since the time of King Arthur.

One of them records the miraculous experience of an alchemist in the Eastern Kingdom.

The alchemist came to a certain city in eastern India around 1856 and traveled there.

By chance, he entered a lifeless world of death, and lived in it for several years before escaping.

The alchemist kept this experience secret, and he didn't tell the secret to his good friend, who was Merlin's ancestor, until he was dying.

"This is what the alchemist brought out of the Nibelung."

Merlin pulled out a necklace from his neck, and the pendant was a transparent diamond.

He turned the diamond up to the light, but there was no reflection of colored light, as if the diamond had died.

"Where is that city now?"

Lu Mingfei asked.

"According to the records in the book, it should be Calcutta now."

Merlin put away the diamond and replied.

"What is the key to open it?"

he asked again.

"There are three possibilities. The first is to walk ten laps around the temple of Goddess Kali. The second is to eat all kinds of local snacks. The third is to combine the first two."

Merlin said.

Looking at the suspicious expressions of the two, he spread his hands and said.

"I know it sounds like nonsense, but that's how it's written in the books."

"Then try it."

Lu Mingfei said to Chu Zihang.

Although this Nibelungen should not be the one of Odin, but going there can always be rewarding.

Chu Zihang nodded silently.

"What's the way out?"

he asked.

They couldn't have been trapped in the Nibelung for several years like the alchemist.

"There will be continuous generation of forks in the road, always choose the right road, no matter what is on the road."

Merlin replied.

"I have a question."

Chu Zihang spoke suddenly.

"Please say."

Merlin nodded.

"Since the Nibelungen is so precious, why didn't your family try to enter?"

Chu Zihang grasped the blind spot.

"Because it didn't work out."

Merlin said in a natural tone.

"You don't have to master the key to enter the Nibelungen. Luck is also an important part."

What he said made sense, and Lu Mingfei couldn't refute it.

Some dug their graves and dug up a Necron Dynasty, some dug their graves and dug up a Titan Legion.

Luck is such an unreasonable thing.

"Thank you for your help."

Although it has not been verified, he still thanked him in advance.

"I am also conditional."

Merlin said.

"You said."

Lu Mingfei nodded.

I'm not afraid that you ask too much, but I'm afraid that you don't ask, the debt of favor is much harder to pay than the debt of money.

Both the Lamenters and the Executioners had committed serious crimes by siding with Huron in the Badab War out of favor.

"There seems to be a Philosopher's Stone in that Nibelungen. If you find it, bring it to me."

Merlin said.

The Philosopher's Stone, the ultimate achievement of alchemy, can penetrate both material and spiritual things.

Its appearance is like a piece of red crystal that has been simply polished, with a blood-like luster flowing and changing inside.

"can."

Lu Mingfei agreed.

"I hope you will succeed."

Merlin took off the diamond necklace and put it in Lu Mingfei's hand.

Going to India is not just a matter of saying, you have to prepare passports, visas and so on.

However, Kassel College has great powers, and Lu Mingfei is not short of money now, so everything was settled within three days.

Then they asked for a week's leave, which Ange personally granted.

There were only Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang on this trip. India is not a friendly place for women, and bringing Akina Sakai would easily cause unnecessary incidents.

As for Fingel, neither India nor the Nibelung was interested in him.

However, he still played the role of a repeat student and helped them contact an Indian student who had just graduated.

There are tens of thousands of kilometers from Chicago to Calcutta, and there are no direct flights.

But considering the physiques of the two, this bit of fatigue was nothing.

After transiting in New Delhi, I arrived in Kolkata. When I got out of the airport, I saw many people waiting with signs.

It was not difficult to find the person Fingel contacted, because the sign he held was twice as large as others, with the names of Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang written on it in paint.

Needless to say, the words are neatly written, as if they were printed.

Of course, the two of them stood out among the passengers who came out, so the Indian practitioners also saw them at a glance.

"Lu, Chu, I'm here."

He waved to them both.

The two walked over, and Lu Mingfei offered to extend his hand.

"Lu Mingfei."

"Chu Zihang."

"Rancher."

Indian practitioners shook hands with them respectively.

"Fingal told me that Class S is coming to India. I still can't believe it. I didn't expect that he didn't lie to me."

Rancher said happily.

"Did he ever lie to you?"

Chu Zihang asked.

"That's too much. He and I used to be in the news department. He often tricked me into catching hot news, and later found out that it was all headlines, and I was scolded by my friends."

Rancho complained.

"Then why are you still willing to be fooled?"

Chu Zihang was puzzled.

There are no idiots among the mixed races who can join Kassel College, and it is impossible to be fooled again and again.

"Because it really works. After graduation, I went home and became a reporter, and then carried forward the Fingal way, and now I am almost becoming an associate editor."

Rancher said proudly.

Your understanding of that idiom may be a bit problematic.

Chu Zihang wisely didn't say anything.

Sure enough, those who are close to vermilion are red, those who are close to ink are black, and people who can have a good relationship with Fingel are not good things.

India is considered a normal country anyway, so it is impossible for them to bring a lot of weapons like they went to Mexico, and they only brought some carry-on luggage.

Because Lancher didn't prepare a vehicle specially, but took them to take the special Indian transportation, TuTu.

This kind of tuk-tuk is actually a three-wheeled convertible, which is equivalent to the "motorcycle" in Huaguo.

In some places, it is also called numbness, slow swimming, three jumps and the like.

The traffic in India is very chaotic and congested. Almost every street is a sea of ​​cars and people. Taking this kind of flexible tuk-tuk is much more convenient than taking a car.

And tuk-tuks are also licensed and part of the proper public transport system.

Lu Mingfei sat in the narrow carriage and looked at the scene of the street, everywhere was full of mess, noise and chaos.

It is a bit similar to the lower level of the hive capital, but it shows a completely different vitality.

"interesting place."

He commented.

Especially after Lu Mingfei saw a seriously overloaded tuk tuk.
