Heaven knows what happened to that little lake. Despite being bombarded several times, the water on it remained a deep, blackish pool that hadn't dried up.
If he could do it all over again, Lu Mingfei would definitely think he had gone mad, wandering around on such a battlefield amidst the chaos of battle. But the truth is, he suddenly felt a wave of fear, as if he were about to lose something.
Fear compelled him to leave the battlefield alone, and he was incredibly lucky to escape being discovered by his senior brother, Cheng Shuangfan.
Nibelungen is not a four-dimensional space or an alternate dimension in the scientific sense, but rather a "land of the dead".
In Norse mythology, the dead have a strange longing for the living, which manifests as their desire to escape the land of the dead.
The land of the dead is the dwelling place of the deceased, but its darkness makes even the dead unwilling to live there; they yearn for the world of the living.
That is why, until a way to close the gates of the Nibelungen is found, Deadpools will continue to emerge endlessly.
So Wang Anzhi left Xia Mi there; she was the future Hela, the Grim Reaper, a master lock picker, who could also shut down the gates of the Nibelungen with a single move.
If the Bai family fails to find a way to seal off the Nibelungen, then Xia Mi will have no choice but to take action secretly.
Of course, another meaning is that when enjoying the spoils of war, one should not have a greedy female dragon by their side; otherwise, Wang Anzhi estimated that Constantine's dragon bones would be irrelevant to him.
The four monarchs do not demand the power of the dragon bones, but that does not mean they can remain indifferent to power offered to them.
In order to prevent Miss Jormungandr from being branded with the stigma of "cannibalism" and "fraternal affection," Wang Anzhi had no choice but to reluctantly accept Constantine's inheritance.
In any case, after Constantine drank the alchemical liquid made from Norton's blood from the Holy Grail brought by Caesar, his life was already on a countdown. The best outcome would be to leave behind a "cocoon" and wait for resurrection.
Now, Wang Anzhi raised his right hand, his thumb adorned with a gleaming gold thumb ring, exuding the air of a nouveau riche.
He twitched his lips, unable to bear looking at it, but he couldn't help but look.
Constantine's soul slumbers within it.
Looking at the golden ring in front of him, Lu Mingfei felt a pang of pain in his heart for some reason, followed by a sense of relief. He hesitated, and these conflicting emotions filled his mind in an instant.
It's like a male lion in his own territory, lazily observing which liones in his tribe are more charming and alluring, and is extremely conflicted.
Damn it, how could he possibly have such an enviable... ah, no, despicable harem like a lion?
Lu Mingfei wiped his mouth, and another internal struggle began.
Immediately, he realized that there was no sound around him, it was extremely quiet.
He saw Wang Anzhi, his senior brother, stroking the thumb ring on his other hand, looking at him as if he were looking at someone else, someone completely unfamiliar.
"Constantine is asleep, the throne of the Bronze and Fire King has collapsed more than halfway, and the line of the Bronze and Fire King is almost extinct."
"Do you accept this ending?"
“I…” Lu Mingfei opened his mouth, wanting to answer, but didn’t know what to say. He silently met Wang Anzhi’s relatively peaceful eyes.
After a few seconds of silence, he finally managed to say with difficulty, "Senior brother, are you talking to me?"
He glanced around discreetly and saw that there was indeed no one else there. The corpse guardian that the Bai family head had transformed into had been dragged away at some point, the giant dragon flying above his head had also disappeared, and the flames that had been burning all over the Bai family compound had gradually died down.
Only at Black Lake, not far away, did the sounds of gunfire continue unabated.
Wang Anzhi did not answer, but continued to smile as he looked at his bewildered expression.
Lu Mingfei felt immense pressure. He didn't know why he had inexplicably arrived here, why he couldn't answer the question, or why Senior Brother Wang had suddenly asked him this question...
He knows nothing.
Then, in a frustrated tone, as if he were throwing a tantrum, yet also as if he had made up his mind, he said:
"I accept..."
Wang Anzhi nodded, showing neither sadness nor joy.
At that moment, time stopped between the two, and a boy in a suit, standing straight with a solemn expression, appeared out of thin air. He said sternly:
"I do not accept."
Chapter 205 The Powerless Demon
"Little devil."
Lu Mingfei blurted out. Looking at the boy in the suit standing upright in front of him, he recalled the scene when they first met. At that time, the boy was also so solemn.
Of course, more importantly, Lu Mingfei saw that the little devil answered Senior Brother Wang's question.
This undoubtedly made him feel even more terrified.
He looked at the boy's innocent face, which lacked any of the majestic air of a lion on the plains, and said, "You really are."
"Brother, have you always thought I was a fake?"
The devilish version of Lu Mingze smiled helplessly.
Lu Mingfei stammered, "I thought you were some kind of Hollow from Ichigo's novels, my second personality or something..."
Lu Mingze seemed amused. He looked at Lu Mingfei and shook his head. "Brother, I've always been your younger brother."
younger brother?
Lu Mingfei didn't understand why this little devil kept emphasizing this title. He already had a younger brother, a brother who was 160cm tall and weighed 160kg, practically a mini-Dali.
He really didn't understand why this little devil in front of him kept trying to steal this meaningless title.
However, he looked at his good senior brother Wang Anzhi and the little devil Lu Mingze, who had already begun to confront each other, their eyes locked.
Lu Mingfei trembled like a lion cub hiding in a corner, not daring to say a word.
In the silence, the devil was the first to clap, and the applause dominated the quiet space.
"What a show."
The boy tilted his head with a cold smile, reminding Lu Mingfei of the crooked-mouthed war god in the novel he had recently read. For a moment, Lu Mingfei couldn't suppress his own smile.
"Mimir, do you intend to deceive my brother like this and take away the power that rightfully belongs to him?"
Wang Anzhi smiled and pointed at Lu Mingfei, whose smile was barely concealed, "Do you think he needs his power right now?"
He did not deny that the power of Constantine, or even the current four monarchs, belonged to the former Lu Mingfei, or rather, to the complete Odembra when it was first born.
But when was that?
Time has passed, and Nidhogg has long since devoured his authority and power. In reality, Lu Mingfei is no different from Wang Anzhi's good sister Yggdrasil.
It's just that Lu Mingfei was luckier and escaped from the Black Emperor's cage.
Lu Mingfei had no idea what they were talking about and shook his head repeatedly, "It has nothing to do with me, you two heroes, settle your own scores!"
Are you kidding me? Which of these two people could he, an ordinary high school student, afford to offend?
He's not Japanese.
Lu Mingfei muttered to himself.
Lu Mingze was so angry he laughed, looking at Lu Mingfei, "Brother, is this what you wanted?"
Lu Mingfei remained silent, offering no reply. He gazed at the sky above, the sun's rays shining upon him, yet he felt no warmth whatsoever, oblivious to the argument between Wang Anzhi and the Little Devil.
He felt completely unfamiliar with the place.
In the end, he didn't answer.
Wang Anzhi looked at Lu Mingze with a smile and teased:
"What, now you have nothing to say?"
Frankly, the four monarchs who were prepared, such as Odin, were not particularly afraid of the two brothers.
Even when Constantine first met Lu Mingfei, he recognized him but only paused for a moment before ignoring him and not paying much attention to him.
As for Teacher Da Ye, who never figured out who Lu Mingfei was, Wang Anzhi could only say that even dragon kings have differences.
He looked at Lu Mingze, his pure eyes fixed intently on the boy before him. "I respect your former title, and I sympathize with our similar circumstances, but..."
He raised his hand and waved it slightly. "This is not a reason for you to yell at me."
In an instant, flames filled the entire space, filling the sky, burning the earth, evaporating the seawater, and engulfing the flames...
Lu Mingfei watched as the seemingly real space before him was obliterated by Senior Brother Wang's wave of his hand. The world before him crumbled inch by inch as if a mirror had been cast. He heard Senior Brother Wang say:
"You shouldn't have dared to drag me into your spiritual world after I gained Constantine's power."
Lu Mingfei heard the sound of the little devil, who was originally all-powerful in his eyes, gritting his teeth. Luckily, the little devil had an extraordinary background, otherwise Lu Mingfei estimated that he would have crushed his teeth.
I don't know if he's reached the stage of losing his baby teeth, or if they'll grow back after he chews them up.
Lu Mingfei suppressed the urge to spew nonsense and watched as Senior Brother Wang gently lowered his hand, and the space that had been almost shattered seemed to stabilize again.
Wang Anzhi looked at Lu Mingze with a warm expression and composed movements, "Is there anything else you'd like to say?"
Lu Mingze took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to die together with his opponent, and told himself it wasn't worth it. The person in front of him was a bastard who not only forced him to sell his healer group, but also stole the dragon bone right under his nose. He was even more despicable than Odin, and he shouldn't be so angry with him.
He endured it time and time again, but the more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Taking a step back only made him angrier, and enduring it only made him feel like he was losing out.
However, he swallowed the bitter pill and looked up at Wang Anzhi:
"You are not allowed to stop me from interfering with my brother."
He looked at Wang Anzhi and emphasized, "This is the final bottom line."
"Me?" Lu Mingfei pointed at himself, looking completely bewildered. Then he saw that Senior Brother Wang had completely lowered his hand, and in contrast, the space in question was completely shattered.
He looked at Wang Anzhi, "Senior brother, the little devil, he..." He swallowed hard before finally deciding to ask, "Who exactly is he? Why is he residing in my mind?"
In the past, he could pretend to be stupid, but when he saw that Lu Mingze was truly intertwined with his reality, Lu Mingfei finally realized that he had nowhere to retreat.
He needed to know the truth, to know who Lu Mingze was, and... who he was.
“He is a ghost from an old era. He should have died long ago, but he unexpectedly survived and lives as a ghost,” Wang Anzhi said indifferently.
Although Lu Mingfei is quite timid, his kind nature makes him easy to get along with. However, with Lu Mingze, the only outcome would probably be enmity.
As this devil said, the taste of power is so tempting, how can one tolerate others taking it away?
He stroked the thumb ring on his right hand and fell silent.
Lu Mingfei was the same; he still didn't know what Lu Mingze's identity was, or what he himself was.
He wanted to ask more, but seeing the unusually cold expression on Senior Brother Wang's face, he ultimately swallowed the words he was about to say and said:
"Senior Brother Wang, Senior Sister Xia is looking for you."
Wang Anzhi was stunned, then a faint smile returned to his face. "That would be wonderful."
