Chapter 673: The Academy Cursed by Dragons (2)
Chapter 673: The Academy Cursed by Dragons (2)
The alchemical matrix of the Sanctuary Academy was completely destroyed, and the barrier that was once enough to stop Norton was forcibly broken in a very short time.
The sound of horse hooves was getting closer and closer, and the wind was blowing hard.
When Finkel saw who was coming, his pupils suddenly shrank. He had seen many big scenes, but he still couldn't stop trembling.
It was a knight wearing a mask, and his horse was not walking on the ground, but on the air.
This is not the key point. The key point is that his horse actually has eight strong legs.
The eight-legged horse Sleipnis, this name popped into Finkel's mind.
The knight holds a lance with an ancient atmosphere and rides a horse like this. All these elements combined point to a being in Norse mythology: Odin, the lord of the gods.
"Principal, Vice Principal." Finkel calmed down and said, "Can you hear me?"
"What do you want to say?" Ange asked in the communication channel.
"Can I escape now? I've held out long enough." Finkel suggested, "I think you should escape too. Principal, you just woke up and are still weak."
"Running away is not your style, Finkel." Ange chuckled and said, "Although you always act like a coward."
"Alas... the main thing is that we are wasting our lives, it's meaningless. Principal, you should know the horror of the first generation. The real first generation is not the incomplete guy like Norton. The methods of the hybrids are meaningless, we have to rely on scientific weapons... I want to ask how much ammunition do we have left?" Finkel asked knowingly.
How could Ange not understand the current situation? Relying on the family coalition, the academy's ammunition was almost consumed, and then a target of the Dragon King level appeared.
Even though he had guessed the truth, Ange still held on to a glimmer of hope. He hoped that these families were deceived or used by the dragons, rather than actively surrendering and becoming tools.
But this little hope is already very slim. At this moment, Angers feels as if his heart is being torn apart by a knife...
He only felt regret for the secret party's changed nature, and had no fear of Odin.
"Principal, your most proud student should be able to handle the current troubles." Finkel hinted.
"What identity are you talking to me in now, Fingel?" Ange asked, "Are you speaking from the perspective of the academy, or as a follower of dragons?"
"I'm standing from my own perspective, Principal." Finkel said, "I hope you, me and everyone else are doing well, but I also know that you don't want this to be the ending. From what I know about you, you probably have already placed the nuclear bomb in the designated location. You only need to press the button and everything will come to an end, right?"
Ange's silence was a positive answer.
Finkel really understood Ange's style of doing things. This secret party leader was never one to show weakness or surrender. Hatred was the main theme of his life.
"Principal, I can't say anything to advise you. You want to take away the two Dragon Kings with a nuclear bomb, which is a sure-win deal. But I have to tell you that Lu Mingfei is here to save the academy, not to destroy it." After Finkel said this, a column of water exploded from the academy's artificial lake.
Another powerful will rushed out from underground.
"How about we wait a while, Principal?" Finkel suggested, "I think you are very familiar with the drama of sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight. Oh, yes, Principal, don't hold out hope of controlling Lu Mingfei. He has broken free from the shackles of fate, which is bad news."
"Well, then what?" Ange remained calm.
"Nothing happened afterwards. I was just talking nonsense. You will definitely listen to my nonsense, and I want to buy some time for my friends. I know you still have the Seven Deadly Sins and nuclear bombs. I know that fighting between half-bloods requires considering some consequences, but a war between half-bloods and dragons does not require considering the consequences and costs."
"Go on." Angé wanted to hear some nonsense from his former loyalist.
Trying to hear Finkel's changes from these nonsense.
"When Lu Mingfei came back, he told me how powerful he was, and I believed him. Later I found out that he wasn't that capable. If it really was a life-and-death battle, he might not get away alive." Finkel kept talking nonsense, mixed with some information about Lu Mingfei.
Whether it is intentional or not.
Give each side some information and a sweet date.
Seeing this familiar style of doing things, Finkel couldn't help but think of that person.
"Principal, did you know that Loki was once your student? Of course, this is just what Lu Mingfei said, I don't remember it all. Lu Mingfei said that Loki's real identity is a student of the academy."
Let’s stop talking nonsense here again.
Ange was still listening, "I know."
"You know? That shouldn't be the case, right?" Finkel said, "Lu Mingfei said that everyone had forgotten. He was the only one who remembered things that no one else had remembered. At first I thought he was crazy and had a mental illness."
"I do remember such a student. He deceived me and the entire college. Later, he became a traitor and did some things that harmed the college, but also some things that helped the college. He was a very strange guy. I couldn't understand his purpose and what he was pursuing." Although Ange was old, he had a good memory. He had heard enough of Finkel's nonsense, and now he wanted to talk nonsense himself. "Fingel, congratulations."
"Huh? Congratulations...to me?" Finkel suspected he had heard it wrong.
"Congratulations on not being troubled by the past." Ange smiled. He remained calm even in critical situations. He was still thinking about his students when disaster struck. "I tried to pull you back from the abyss. It was my fault. I arranged the mission in the Greenland Sea in a hurry. I'm sorry."
"Principal..." Finkel didn't expect Angé to say that.
"You are not only my tool, you are also my student. Remember? You once received the principal's scholarship. You received it every year before the mission. You are Flamel's student, but you always audit my classes. You came to me privately and told me that Flamel couldn't teach you more about combat skills, and hoped that I could give you some extra lessons."
"Principal, I see you still remember these."
"Of course I remember. Every student's training plan is different. You are more dazzling than Caesar and Chu Zihang, but everything you have experienced has dimmed your light. I am an avenger controlled by hatred. I know that kind of pain, so I don't want you to become like me. I remember that in the month after returning from the Greenland Sea, he found me many times and applied for early graduation. I always refused. At first, I used the courses as an excuse. You only spent one week to self-study the rest of the courses and handed in a full score test paper in front of me." Angé said slowly.
