Chapter 180 Prussian Delegation "Mr. Prime Minister, how do you explain the disaster that happened earlier?" Reporters kept asking Lu Mingfei questions at the press conference. All of Japan and even the whole world were waiting for the answer. In the hall of the press conference, a dazzling incandescent light filled the entire space. The sound of cameras focusing came one after another, recording every move of the young man on the stage. Lu Mingfei stood in the center of the podium, his black suit straight and buttons neatly fastened. His face was calm, but his golden eyes were as deep and cold as the deep sea under the flickering spotlight. His calmness contained a majesty that made people dare not look directly at him. “It’s a disaster.” He began to speak, his voice clear and deep, each word was like a stone falling on the water, causing invisible ripples. The noise in the audience froze instantly, the reporters' pens stopped on the paper, and everyone held their breath. "We have to admit that in this world, besides us humans, there is another kind of highly intelligent creature, that is - dragon." This sentence was like a thunder, exploding the whole audience. Reporters sat up straight in their chairs, their eyes filled with shock and disbelief. More flashbulbs suddenly lit up, recording this unprecedented announcement. "What? Dragon Clan?!" "Dragon... isn't this a myth?"
"What does this mean? Has human history been completely rewritten?" Noisy sounds rose and fell in the conference hall, and reporters' questions came in waves like the tide. Some people had already stood up, holding the microphone high, trying to grab the opportunity to ask questions. But Lu Mingfei did not stop, nor was he disturbed by the noise. His eyes swept across the audience, as if suppressing all the noise with an invisible force. "Dragons are not myths or legends. They really exist. Thousands of years ago, humans stole their power in order to fight against these creatures that are more advanced and powerful than humans. Thus, a new race was born - the hybrids." He spoke calmly, but without concealing anything, as if he had uncovered the secrets of a world and exposed thousands of years of hidden history of mankind under the lights and cameras. "Hybrids are a combination of human and dragon power. They have greater strength and speed than ordinary humans, but they are also destined to fight against dragons." He paused, took a deep breath, and looked at the audience with a sharp gaze: "And this disaster is caused by the revival of the oldest king of the dragon clan - the White King." "White King?" The name caused an uproar among everyone. Reporters quickly whispered to each other, and the whispers spread quickly. Some people tried to stand up and ask questions. More cameras were pointed at Lu Mingfei, capturing his every expression. "What exactly is the White King?" “Was this disaster caused by human error?” "Is the government hiding the existence of the dragon race?" All the questions flooded towards Lu Mingfei like a tide, but he simply raised his hand and pressed down lightly. "The White King is the oldest being in the history of the Dragon Clan and the one closest to God. His power is enough to destroy everything." His voice was steady and cold. "This is a battle for world dominance." "If we had not stood up and resisted, if we had not chosen to steal the power of the dragon clan, then what we would be talking about here today might not be how to save Tokyo, but how to face an extinct human civilization." The venue gradually became quiet. Reporters put down their microphones and notebooks. Their eyes were focused on Lu Mingfei, as if they were suffocated by the deep sense of responsibility in his tone. "Hybrids are neither gods nor monsters." Lu Mingfei's voice became more resolute. His eyes swept across the camera and everyone at the scene. "They are the shield standing between humans and dragons. They use the power we stole to fight against those who try to destroy the world. "But this time we won, and we won with human power. Humans have thoroughly mastered the weapons to fight against dragons in the long development of the world, but the price paid this time was just as heavy." "This disaster also serves as a warning to all of humanity. The dragon race has not yet been completely extinct. Beings like the White King may appear in the future. If we cannot unite and face this threat, then today's Tokyo may become tomorrow's New York, London, or even the fate of all of humanity." His words were like a heavy hammer, striking the heart of every audience member. The flash lights in the conference hall gradually dimmed and the reporters fell silent at the same time.
"This disaster marks the end of a battle, but also the beginning of another war." Lu Mingfei's voice was as steady as a mountain. "The dragon race will not stop, and we will not retreat. Humans must unite to face the threats lurking in the darkness, because this is not just the responsibility of the hybrids, it is the common destiny of all mankind." He bowed deeply, then turned and left the podium. "How can we believe that the so-called hybrids will definitely help humans!" a reporter shouted at this time. Lu Mingfei stopped and turned around. He slowly looked at the reporter. There was no trace of emotion in his expression, but instead there was an indescribable majesty. The entire venue suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes were once again focused on him. Even the reporter who was speaking couldn't help but clench the microphone in his hand, with cold sweat oozing from his forehead. Lu Mingfei raised his head, and his voice was deep and powerful, echoing throughout the hall: "How can you believe that the hybrids are on the side of humans? It's simple, because the hybrids' families, friends, and lovers are all in this world. The hybrids protect this world because they themselves are part of the human race. If humans become extinct, the hybrids will have no future either." After saying this, he turned around and left the press conference hall without waiting for a response. All the reporters watched his back gradually disappear at the end of the corridor. No one made any sound, the flash lights stopped, and the entire venue fell into a suffocating silence. The flash lights were still on, but no one asked any more questions, and no one tried to chase him. The reporters watched his back as he left, and everyone was shocked by the information. Lu Mingfei slowly walked to the backstage of the press conference. "Well done, brother." Lu Mingze's voice sounded in his ears, with a hint of ridicule in his tone, "The speech just now was very much like a prime minister, but brother, aren't you going to tell the news that the world is about to be destroyed now?" "Things always have to be revealed step by step, right? If too much information is revealed at once, there will be great unrest in society. We need to give them some buffer time." Lu Mingfei said. "Boss, the Prussian delegation is here." Su Enxi walked over and said. "I understand. Take me to meet them." Lu Mingfei replied. Soon, under the leadership of Su Enxi, Lu Mingfei saw the Prussian delegation in an office. However, to Lu Mingfei's surprise, the leader of the delegation was actually a young woman whom he had met before. "We should have met before. I think it was during the 3E exam at Kassel College." Lu Mingfei looked at the German girl and raised his eyebrows. "Yes, I entered Kassel College at the same time as you. Let me introduce myself formally. My name is Scarlett, my grandfather is Calvo, and my great-grandfather is Kaczynski." The girl bowed respectfully to Lu Mingfei and then introduced herself. When Lu Mingfei heard the name Calvo, his expression froze for a moment, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he said, "Is your grandfather okay?" "My grandpa is in good health. I don't know whether I should call you Grandpa Hans or Mr. Lu Mingfei." Scarlett said with a smile. "It seems you know a lot." After a moment of silence, Lu Mingfei continued, "Just call me Lu Mingfei. William Hans is a thing of the past." "What are you doing here this time? It's impossible that you are here to reminisce about the past," Lu Mingfei said. "We are really here to reminisce about the past," Scarlett said with a smile. "Grandpa Lu Mingfei, do you still remember telling the President where you came from? The President has always kept that address in mind, and we have been looking for it, so we have been observing you for a long time until the car accident when you graduated from high school." Scarlett continued. "So, you observed me and even traced me to the car accident after I graduated from high school." Lu Mingfei's eyes gradually turned cold. "So, what is the real purpose of this so-called reunion?" "We used to be the most capable subordinates of the Führer. After the Führer disappeared, we inherited the legacy of the empire, or we are the legacy the Führer left for you. The Führer once said that you would need our help in the future, so we have been lurking in the dark until you need us. We think now is the time you need us." Scarlett said. "Oh~ Then what can you do to help me?" Lu Mingfei asked. Scarlett took out a photo from her pocket. The photo showed an icy ocean. "In 1943, the Führer organized a fleet to explore the Arctic Ocean. Although we encountered some obstacles at that time, we still found some things. The Black King's eggs are likely to be hatched there." "How do you know this?" Lu Mingfei asked. Scarlett smiled slightly, with a meaningful light flashing in her eyes: "This is one of the legacies we inherited. The Führer invested a lot of resources during the war to try to decipher the secrets of the dragon clan. He once speculated that the Black King's eggs were buried deep under the extremely cold Arctic Ocean, waiting for the right time to hatch."
She handed the photo to Lu Mingfei and continued, "During decades of research, our team has discovered some traces of resonance with dragon energy. Through further analysis, we have confirmed that there is extremely powerful life energy hidden under this icy ocean. This energy is extremely similar to the energy pattern released by the White King in the Tokyo incident." Lu Mingfei stared at the photo with a frown on his face. The Arctic Ocean in the photo was vast and boundless, but in one place, there was an extremely conspicuous deep pit. In the pit, there was a faint glow of dark gold and dark blue. The light was like some kind of life pulse ready to burst out. "Arctic Ocean? Are you sure this energy reaction is related to the Black King?" He raised his head, his eyes showing more caution. Scarlett nodded and said firmly, "It's not just our guess. The Prussian research institute also found that the energy fluctuations in this Arctic Ocean region have increased significantly since the Tokyo incident, and the time is almost the same. Moreover, this energy fluctuation is very sensitive to the hybrids. A member of our detection team almost lost control on the spot." Lu Mingfei stared at the photo, pondered for a moment, and then put it down: "If the Black King's egg is really here, then its awakening is definitely not just a human problem. You came to me with this information, just hoping that I will deal with it personally, right?" Scarlett's expression flashed with respect, and she bowed her head slightly and said, "That's right. Before his death, the Führer predicted that only you could solve this problem. He even locked part of the rights to the inheritance under your identity. In other words, we are not only here to deliver information, but also to be loyal to you." "Pledge allegiance?" Lu Mingfei raised his eyebrows, with a hint of ridicule in his tone, "This is not like the Prussian style." Scarlett raised her head, her eyes flashing with something close to fanaticism: "The Prussian style is to serve for victory, and we live for the unfinished cause of the Führer. You are our last mission, or in other words, the only reason for our existence." Lu Mingfei stared at Scarlett quietly, with a complex emotion flashing in his eyes. He never thought that some of the decisions he made back then would have such a chain reaction decades later. "I will consider the matter of the Arctic Ocean." He finally said, "Also, what happened to Hill? I have checked a lot of information, but I still don't know the specific situation. Is he dead or not?" After hearing Lu Mingfei's question, Scarlett was silent for a long time before she spoke: "We are so sure that the Black King's eggs are in the Arctic Ocean because the Führer was also on that fleet. In 1943, a major gene leakage incident occurred in the northern waters. Many creatures there were infected by dragon blood, and even the Führer was no exception." "You should know that the Head of State is just an ordinary person, but when he returned from the Arctic Ocean, he became a hybrid, and his bloodline concentration is even higher than the so-called S-level hybrids today." "Only the Black King has this ability. He can achieve this level with just a few gene fragments. The words of the leader are prophecies, so we have always believed in the words left by the leader." Lu Mingfei was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "In other words, the reason why Hill became a hybrid was because of the Black King's gene leakage, and the reason why you believed in his last words was because of his words, the prophecy?" Scarlett nodded, her eyes full of respect. "Yes, the Führer mentioned repeatedly in his last days that one day in the future, the world will face an extremely dangerous moment, and the awakening of the Black King is the key. We believe that he has foreseen your appearance. That is why he left behind his legacy and us, his followers, to help you deal with this catastrophe." "So what happened next? Since he was already a super hybrid, he shouldn't be that easy to die?" Lu Mingfei continued. "Because the bloodline of the President was polluted and extremely unstable, in the later period, the President had completely turned into a dragon and was unable to command the empire to fight, which led to the failure of the war. Later, the President took the world's first real rocket and flew into space. We don't know the details." (End of this chapter)
