Chapter 481, Blood and Flowers (1)

After passing the cast iron carved school gate, a peaceful scene appeared before our eyes.

Zhuo and Ling rode on the same motorcycle together, which prevented him from getting lost the next second after entering Kassel College. He was now running on the flat lawn with his arms around Ling's waist, marveling at the brand new look around him.

The lawn is covered in dense green, but the soil that should have been broken up by roots is still flat, and a high-speed motorcycle can hardly feel the bumps when running over it.

On both sides of the lawn are oak forests that can be named, white oak, English name 'White Oak', the state tree of Illinois.

Each white oak has a ribbon wrapped around it, and I don’t know what it does. On the ribbon is a cardinal, the state bird of Illinois. Each state here has its own state tree and state bird, and they are all very strange, as if they would appear inferior without these. Although Zhuo thinks they look like turkeys in camouflage——

At the same time, all the hunters who entered the door also changed their directions and routes. Gunshots were heard from time to time along the way, leaving no way for them to be monitored. If there was any possibility of being tracked, the most they could do was to estimate their location at that time based on the route that was destroyed by the surveillance cameras.

Zhuo thought to himself: "This is the Bermuda lawn that Gilbert Jean Angers loved." While looking at the scenery around him that was rapidly receding, he buried his face in Ling's hat to keep warm.

This unique black hooded combat uniform was a special choice for Zero.

She said, "It's also important to hide your hair," so Zhuo got this temporary place to bury her face, which was comfortable to the touch, windproof and warm.

Since he didn't have the chance to do so normally, Zhuo gratefully used it. Now he was impressed by the special skills of the 'hunters'.

Although most of them are characters whose names are unknown, they are all powerful guys who can accurately detect and hit surveillance cameras hundreds of meters away while riding.

Illinois and Neon are located in opposite directions of the earth, and it seems that winter is just about to begin here.

It was very cold today, so Zero, who was facing the cold wind, probably felt the same way. Vegetables, mushrooms, meat and other ingredients had been prepared in advance in their temporary residence. The base seemed to be simmering on the stove. This might be Zero's silent proposition - "Everything will be prepared in advance."

Coming to such an unfamiliar place for the first time, Zhuo thankfully thought, "This is why I can't leave her anymore."

Zhuo checked the surroundings again and hugged Ling tighter in the increasingly cold weather.

"Red alert! Red alert! Dragon invasion! Dragon invasion! Freshmen stay in the dormitories. Students who have passed the battlefield survival course are to collect their weapons immediately and load them with Frigga bullets. Live ammunition is not allowed. All entrances are blocked. Anyone with unknown identities is allowed to be shot."

Is it impossible to figure out our identities? Zhuo didn't say this after hearing the stiff female voices coming from all directions. Even if we put aside the fact that Zhuo himself has no dragon bloodline, for these people, it can only be regarded as a civil war among mixed-bloods. However, since their identities are in doubt, it is unavoidable to let Norma make such a judgment for the sake of safety.

To be honest, there is indeed a pure-blooded first-generation person among them, so this statement is not wrong.

……

It was Lu Mingfei's first time driving a car that was worth hundreds of times his own money. He was carefully but not wanting to show his timidity as he steered the Bugatti Veyron along the winding mountain road.

Because he was carried in unconscious, this was the first time Lu Mingfei saw the campus from the outside. He discovered that it was located halfway up a mountain. A ring road passed in front of the gate. Looking out from the distance, the layers of coniferous forests in the valley undulated in the wind like black waves.

There were no other cars on the mountain road, and the headlights illuminated only one turn sign after another. As the car spiraled upward, Lu Mingfei gradually became able to control the car. He turned his head to look at Nuonuo, whose long eyelashes drooped, and whose head tilted to one side, with a calm face. For a moment, the world was quiet and beautiful, and the roar of the engine seemed to subside.

Lights flashed across the sign ahead: "Beware of Bears."

"There's a bear?" Lu Mingfei was stunned.

"Yes, there are many bears on this mountain." A clear male voice came from the side.

Lu Mingfei was startled and turned around to see Lu Mingze sitting in the passenger seat with his hands on his knees, like an obedient junior high school student.

"Ah! When did you jump up? Could you please not suddenly appear without making a sound? It's like a haunted place, do you know that?"

"Watch the road and drive carefully. There's a turn ahead."

"Anyway, seeing you is just a dream, so why should I drive properly? Even if I crash into a tree, it's just waking up from a dream! Please, what kind of wronged ghost are you that keeps haunting me?"

"It's not a complete dream. There really is a turn sign ahead. If you don't turn the steering wheel, we will all die."

The moment the yellow traffic sign flashed before Lu Mingfei's eyes, he broke out in a cold sweat and slammed the steering wheel. Fortunately, the Bugatti had a first-rate chassis and smoothly turned a 90-degree curve. If they were even two seconds slower, they would have fallen off the cliff, but Lu Mingze didn't even blink.

"Damn, I almost died! Can you please not be so scary? It's all because of you that I couldn't see the road clearly!" Lu Mingfei complained.

"I'm just here to remind you that there's a bend. If I weren't here, you'd probably die with the woman you love, considering your driving skills." Lu Mingze still had a poker face. "What woman do you love? She's just a classmate. What did you call her? Woman? You really sound like an old man!"

"These things may be hidden from others, but not from me. Do you feel like something is missing?"

"Something is missing. The girl next to me used to be thin-waisted and long-legged, but now she has turned into a weird little ghost."

"Lu Mingfei, you're so deceiving yourself that you even believe it. That's the most pathetic thing." Lu Mingze completely ignored Lu Mingfei's nagging. "I felt like I had gotten the script for the main character, but I found out that it was just a change from the Regent Hotel to the Norma Hotel. I'm still the lowercase 'i'."

You know all this - Lu Mingfei was stunned, but swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

He did have this feeling. Although he couldn't put it into words, for Lu Mingfei, who had many years of experience in reading online novels, even if he would eventually become one of the 100,000 heavenly soldiers who surrounded and suppressed Sun Wukong, before Sun Wukong went to the Heavenly Palace, he should have been a long and successful man.

Actually, if you really want to say it, he did have it all smooth sailing... He was picked up by a helicopter, was picked up from outside the school and dropped off at the dormitory by his tutor, became a rising star immediately upon entering the campus, and was noticed by two big bosses at the same time... Oh, the reason they were noticed was not because of his handsome looks, but his S-level grades.

Despite this, despite this... Lu Mingfei just felt something was wrong. He couldn't put his finger on what this feeling was, but if he had to, it was probably the difference between the precognitive dream and reality.

Well, actually, it was just missing the part where the beautiful woman threw herself into his arms - in fact, the real situation was even worse, he just found out that Nuonuo already had a boyfriend, and the other party was the boss of the student union, a super handsome guy and the second generation of a rich family.

"You haven't woken up yet, have you? Well, you are indeed in a dream now, right?"

"Since you don't want them, I'll send you flowers! This girl, right... A new secret is unlocked, 'show me the flowers', it will take effect when you read it out, only tonight."

"What the hell are you talking about!?"

"It's not wrong to help you chase her."

Lu Mingze smiled coldly.

Lu Mingfei felt that this guy was just like a worm in his stomach, as if he could not hide any of his secrets from him. Indeed, even though he felt a sense of disparity, and now the academy seemed to be fighting the dragon clan, Lu Mingfei did not think it had anything to do with him.

He was driving the world's best sports car he had just won, with his favorite girl sitting in the passenger seat. Although winter had arrived, the night wind still didn't feel cold... It couldn't be more perfect.

Even so, Lu Mingfei didn't want this guy to continue talking, so he reached out and hit him on the head without thinking. Lu Mingze didn't make any protest.

Lu Mingfei realized something was wrong, looked at his hand again, and punched it on the headrest of Nuonuo's car seat. Nuonuo's soft and warm face was less than a centimeter away from his hand. She was still asleep, and her breath was exhaled on Lu Mingfei's fist.

"Oh my! According to the script, I have to touch the heroine's face, and then she will suddenly open her eyes, stare at me, and then there will be an electric shock!"

"Damn it, that guy Lu Mingze... is such a..." Lu Mingfei was struggling within himself and the battle was intense.

After a long while, he slowly withdrew his hand, "What a nasty little devil."

"What little ghost?" Nuo Nuo woke up and heard Lu Mingfei's mumbling.

"Nothing, you heard me wrong. I meant the little turtle. A little turtle just crawled past me. I hate these kinds of things that crawl past me silently and unnoticed." Lu Mingfei looked straight ahead, gripping the steering wheel tightly.

……

No. 13 was very proud and felt like a bat flying in the night, lightly crossing one roof after another.

His brothers in Brooklyn, New York, call him "Cheetah", but he thinks he is not as cool as a bat and has a more vampire-like aura.

The defense of this campus was much tighter than expected, but this could not stop No. 13. Because No. 13 did not advance from the ground at all, he carried a rope gun, which he bought at a high price from a brother who was engaged in weapon development in the army. It could shoot long nails with ropes into rocks from dozens of meters away. No. 13 passed over the heads of students along these ropes, feeling very proud.

He has always had confidence in himself.

There was only one problem: he couldn't find the meeting place. He was high up on the roof, out of sight, and he was lost on this campus.
