The Messiah complex is deeply rooted in the hearts of almost every Westerner. Gao Kui is indeed outstanding, with his super A-grade bloodline clearly evident, but he seems to be far from deserving the title of "Messiah".
"Do you think Gao Kui is unworthy of the title Messiah?" Angers keenly sensed Schneider's inner thoughts.
"He is indeed outstanding, far more outstanding than that flamboyant playboy. His mental strength is incredibly powerful, and he can use his bloodline to forcibly elevate the Yin Flow to a level comparable to or even surpassing the Eye of the Wind King."
Once the physical weaknesses are addressed, it will undoubtedly become a sharp, dragon-slaying dagger capable of cutting through a hair.
While acknowledging Gao Kui's achievements, Schneider didn't forget to take a jab at Caesar.
The flamboyant and ostentatious style of rebellious rich kids has never been favored by old-fashioned people like Schneider.
“Caesar was a good kid too. He’s just young and rebellious now. I’m sure you went through a similar phase.” Angers said with a smile, trying to save face for Caesar.
Schneider then steered the conversation back to Gao Kui, clearly showing little interest in Caesar.
"Even so, the prince of Northern Qi seems somewhat unfit for the title of 'Messiah.' I understand you have high expectations for outstanding young people, but..."
Excessive expectations are often a poison, burdening people with pressure beyond their limits. Unfulfilled expectations can grow into mountains, crushing young people who should have bright futures.
Schneider still felt that Angers' expectations of Gao Kui were a bit too "brutal".
It's not that Gao Kui isn't good enough; he's practically one of the most outstanding students in Kassel in recent years. It's just that he can't bear the weight of the title "Messiah."
"Oh, so you don't even think much of the Northern Qi prince with his super A-grade bloodline?"
So, Professor Schneider, my German boy, tell me, in your heart, who is worthy of the weight of the title "Messiah of the Hybrids"?
Schneider remained silent, only raising his head and gazing intently at Angers.
Who in the world could be more deserving of the honor of "Messiah of the Hybrids" than the legendary dragon slayer who lived for over a century?
Angers was both amused and exasperated: "I am very pleased that you respect me so much, but now I have to consider a question: is it feasible to add another layer of hell below Judah's Hell, which is the deepest level of hell?"
Professor Schneider, your idolizing me and your adoration only deepens my sin.
Chapter 73: We must strike hard!
"You shall not worship idols" is one of the Ten Commandments that He strictly forbade.
Today, this commandment is extremely lenient. Generally speaking, there is no problem as long as one does not blindly worship or place one's hopes on counterfeits, or does not regard oneself as an "idol."
Essentially, this commandment still upholds His uniqueness as God.
Schneider's view of Angers as a "hybrid messiah" violated this commandment, thus making both himself and Angers guilty.
However, having already committed even the most heinous crimes, Angers didn't care about adding another layer of punishment.
After a brief pause, Angers continued, "Gao Kui is the only Messiah, that is unshakeable, and you will know in the future how outstanding this child is."
The millennia-long entanglement of grudges and conflicts between dragons, hybrids, and humans will finally end in his hands.
Professor Schneider remained silent, not understanding why Angers had such high expectations for the Northern Qi prince. Could it be that the Northern Qi prince possessed some talent that Angers could see but not him?
That should be the case.
"Alright, the documents have been retrieved, and the reward for the Northern Qi prince has been signed. This matter can be considered to have come to a satisfactory conclusion."
No longer dwelling on the messiah issue, Angers summarized in a lighthearted tone, then added ramblingly, "I also need to quickly find some time to go to China and meet our messiah..."
This is a disguised way of asking them to leave.
The Executive Department is busy with many affairs. This report is now concluded, and Angers has not given any new instructions. Professor Schneider should leave the President's office and return to the Executive Department to handle his affairs.
However, Professor Schneider remained unmoved.
"Principal, I think this incident is not over yet. In fact, the real show has just begun." Professor Schneider's tone was serious, and his eyes were extremely focused, like a shark that had smelled blood.
Angers scoffed: "What do you mean it's just the beginning? Wasn't this incident handled perfectly?"
"Not entirely satisfactory, Principal."
Professor Schneider took a laptop from his computer bag on the trolley beside him, opened a folder, and placed the computer on the desktop with the screen facing Angers.
“Principal, I smell a big fish.”
The surveillance footage sent by Guderian and the school's public relations department clearly recorded the thief's use of incantations to chase after the prince of Northern Qi.
Based on the video analysis, the thief possessed excellent physical attributes and lineage, enabling him to repeatedly and flexibly utilize the high-risk incantation, Wind King's Eye, in a short period of time.
Even within the execution department, they would be at least an A-level ace specialist.
"so what?"
Angers remained expressionless and spoke in a flat tone, as if he had lost his usual keen sense of smell.
“This is suspicious, Principal.”
Professor Schneider continued, "Mixed-race individuals with this kind of bloodline and ability are rare even within the Secret Service, and I believe the same is true in China."
At least, Norma's database doesn't contain a single non-Secret Party hybrid that matches this thief.
What could possibly motivate a hybrid with superior bloodlines to steal the files from the Kassel preparatory class?
“Perhaps some mixed-race families in China are curious about Kassel, so they are secretly investigating,” Angers suggested.
"That is indeed the most likely reason."
Professor Schneider nodded slightly, then said solemnly, "However, there is another possibility that cannot be ignored: that is, among the students scheduled for the preparatory class, there is a pure-blooded dragon disguised as a hybrid."
It believed there might be something wrong with its own file, so it secretly stole the documents, attempting to modify or erase any content that could reveal its identity.
No matter how great Nidhogg the Black King was, no matter how prosperous the civilization once dominated by dragons was, the era of dragons has finally passed, and the current era is dominated by humans.
Humans, or hybrids, are the true masters of this planet in this era; dragons are merely remnants of the previous era, an abandoned race.
Even the true dragons below the Dragon King, even those at the next generation level, are no match for modern cutting-edge warfare technology.
Ordinary technological weapons cannot completely kill the dragons, but immortality does not mean eternity. Every time they awaken, they fight with humans and are blasted to death by missiles and other weapons.
Even if one could be reborn again, it would be meaningless.
The most suitable way for true dragons to survive in this era is to change their skeletal structure, or to use human form from the very beginning of their reincarnation and hatching, disguising themselves as humans or hybrids to infiltrate human civilization and break through the fortress from within.
Among the hybrid families that exist in the world today, there must be some who are actually dragons in disguise; this is a consensus among all hybrids.
They are the enemies of all hybrids.
The true mission of the Kassel Executive Division is to hunt down real dragons, find them, track them down, and kill them, including but not limited to unhatched dragons, dragons that appear in the world as dragons or in other forms, dragons disguised as humans, and hybrid dragons...
Any dragon is a target for the Kassel Executive Department.
The rest, like high-risk hybrids and Deadpools whose bloodlines exceed the critical point, are just side dishes.
Schneider sensed something unusual about the theft of the preparatory class files. It wasn't unheard of for a real dragon to disguise itself as a human or a hybrid to approach and attack Kassel.
Disguise, infiltration, and internal attacks—this has always been the Dragon Clan's overall strategy in this era.
"Aren't you being too sensitive, Schneider?"
Angers' tone remained flat, almost abnormally so.
This old man, who had sworn to exterminate the dragon race and used to go berserk at the mere scent of pure-blooded dragons like a hyena, was now so muddled that he ignored all the suspicious points.
"Is it sensitive? Perhaps, but when it comes to pure-blooded dragons, one must be meticulous and not overlook any suspicious points. Isn't that exactly what you've always taught us?"
The suspicious points in this incident are obvious and cannot be ignored; they can no longer be ignored, Principal.
I believe it is now necessary for us to conduct a more in-depth and detailed secret investigation into the backgrounds and resumes of all members of the Huaxia Yanjing Preparatory Class, including those who failed the examination.
This is no ordinary incident; we must take decisive action!
Professor Schneider made a very reasonable proposal; he didn't even go so far as to request that the Executive Department's top specialist be sent to China to stand by before the secret investigation began.
"Your speculation is very reasonable, and your use of idioms is also very clever. Schneider, your Chinese proficiency is no different from that of a true Chinese person."
Angers maintained his smile, and after expressing his admiration, said, "But Schneider, I don't think there's any need to launch a secret investigation into the preparatory class members right now."
"What?" Professor Schneider was taken aback.
I said, there's no need for that.
Chapter 74 What if they find out something?
"But……"
Schneider was completely baffled. Why would Angers, who had always been very perceptive, selectively ignore such obvious suspicious points?
“It’s very suspicious, isn’t it?” Angers interrupted Schneider’s explanation.
"Yes."
Schneider nodded; the suspicious points of this incident were obvious.
"Schneider, I am pleased that you have taken my teachings to heart and have consistently led the executive department in accordance with them. However, this incident is not worth our excessive attention."
Before we go any further, let's use a skeptical approach to consider other cases and individuals that warrant suspicion.
Anger, calm and collected, listed various suspects.
"More than a hundred years ago, during the Summer Mourning Incident, the Kassel Manor, the headquarters of the Secret Party, was invaded by the dragons, and the newly formed Lionheart Society was plunged into a deadly battle."
The first Lionheart Society president, Menek Kassel, used the Word of Power Rhine to perish together with the intruder who was suspected to be the Dragon King. The Lionheart Society was almost completely wiped out, leaving only me and Friedrich von Long alive.
Schneider, do you think we're both worthy of suspicion?
Schneider remained silent. He hadn't expected Angers to bring up the top-secret Summer Mourning incident, the results of which remained a mystery to this day.
However, since Angers has brought it up now, Schneider doesn't mind guessing.
“It’s questionable,” Schneider said succinctly.
At the time, Angers and Friedrich von Long were not particularly outstanding among the mixed-race members of the Lionheart Order, after all, it was a team led by the legendary dragon slayer Menek.
But after that battle, the Dragon King died, Menek died, but Angers and Friedrich von Long survived, and even survived a century later, still full of energy.
Angers and his old friend are certainly suspect. Even if a hybrid's physical abilities far surpass those of an ordinary human, it would be difficult for them to maintain their vitality even in their 100s.
At the time, the two men from Angers did indeed face suspicion from mixed-race people throughout Europe. This was not indifference, but a necessary measure.
However, Angers' unwavering hatred for the dragon race over the past century gradually made the European mixed-race people put aside their suspicions of Angers and his companion.
Simply letting go doesn't mean the doubts will disappear.
Angers, who threw himself into the dock with the first bombshell, said: "Seven years ago, during the Greenland ice sea incident, the elite Kassel troops investigating dragon embryos were attacked by suspected second-generation or even first-generation species, and were almost completely wiped out once again, leaving only you and Fingel as survivors."
