At the junction of magma and seawater, the seawater is still instantly vaporized. Those thunderous bombing sounds are the sounds of seawater vaporizing, and the instantaneous intensity is close to that of an explosion.
But then it cooled slightly and was restored to liquid under high pressure, so no bubbles floating to the surface could be seen from the observation window of the Trieste.
"I am not interested in your secrets, but you are sitting in a submersible in my house, and outside is the deep sea with a water temperature of 128 degrees Celsius and a pressure of 800 atmospheres. As a prerequisite for peaceful coexistence, should you tell us your purpose?" Caesar said.
Chu Zihang quietly pressed his fingers on the handle of Murasame's knife, and the girl behind him breathed heavily.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the watertight compartment was tense again.
"We have to think about the hundreds of millions of people in Japan. Even if we don't think about those Japanese, we should be careful about our own lives." Caesar shrugged. "Some ambitious people have always wanted to restore the rule of the dragon clan. They believe that a world ruled by dragons is better than a world ruled by humans. They are all real anti-human lunatics... How do I know you are not such a lunatic?"
"You're so interesting."
Jiude Mai gave a light laugh, "Okay, okay, I'll tell you, our boss wants me to get something from the trench."
"What? Do you mean you are going to do an extravehicular walk?" Caesar was a little solemn for a moment.
No one in the world has ever walked in such a deep trench, and the huge pressure would turn any crazy explorer into a pile of organic matter that even he couldn't recognize.
"You may think this is unrealistic, but I have my own way." Jiude Mai let her long hair down, which was as soft as black seaweed. It seemed that her temperament was faintly cold and beautiful.
"We want to see what was hatched in the Abyss, a prince, a monarch, or... a god."
"If we encounter danger, we won't wait for you." Chu Zihang said after a moment of hesitation.
Jiude Mai was stunned and smiled sweetly.
"Okay." she said.
"The water temperature outside shows that it has reached 140 degrees Celsius," Chu Zihang added, "Although an insulation layer has been installed, the temperature inside the watertight compartment has exceeded 40 degrees. We will be burned to death in it if this continues." As he spoke, he took off the last of his T-shirt, revealing his muscular body with beautiful tones.
"I can already feel it." Jiude Mai wiped the sweat from her forehead and silently watched Caesar take off his clothes, exposing his naked and broad back to her sight.
"It's enough for me to tell you to take off your clothes. If you take off your pants, be careful or I will post your nude photos on the Night Watch forum." She threatened viciously.
"It doesn't matter. The requirement to join the student union is to run naked around the winding mountain road at night. There are at least eighty people in the world who have my photo." Caesar shrugged, looking like a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water. However, in the end, he and Chu Zihang still couldn't bear to take off their pants.
Several people were sweating profusely, with their hair soaked, as if they were in a dry sauna room in a bathhouse.
The submersible has entered automatic cruise mode, the propeller is rotating slowly, and the Deliaste is cruising slowly above the magma, maintaining its depth.
Everyone in the cabin lay on an observation port and looked around.
If you look down from above, the crack in the seabed looks like a burning abyss, and the 15-meter-long Trieste is as small as a midge. It glides lightly and steadily over the blazing flames, and the whole thing is reflected in gold.
Jiude Mai looked down at the long river of lava, her face expressionless, and no one knew what she was thinking.
"I think we have found something valuable..." Chu Zihang said faintly.
The temperature in the watertight compartment was clearly close to fifty degrees, but at this moment, a sudden chill like ice rose from Caesar's heart.
What valuable things could there be in a place like this, unless it was the devil!
He turned to the observation port on Chu Zihang's side and looked out. After just a moment, he let out a long sigh, which sounded like admiration and regret, an indescribable feeling.
There was a tower there, a dark iron tower.
"Oh my god, I think we found it..."
"God's kingdom, Takamagahara."
-----------------
"I'm sorry, but this is indeed a war from which no one can escape once involved." Yuan Zhinv held up an umbrella, and Lu Mingfei stood with him at the highest point of the mountain, looking down.
The snowfield beyond the camp was dotted with the remains of Abrams tanks that had been hit, and huge piles of fire shrouded in black smoke were burning.
Looking far away, one can see several destroyed tanks from the Sheqi Eight Clans in the distance. They look like piles of charcoal emitting thick smoke in the snow-covered forest.
But this is the home ground of the Snake Eight Families after all. The Abrams of the Ghost Clan have been destroyed, and the remaining members are raising military shotguns and engaging in a gun battle with the cadres of the Snake Eight Families through the bunkers.
Everyone in the camp was killed, and the ghosts had no intention of leaving anyone alive. The massacre took less than ten minutes from start to finish, and Lu Mingfei had no chance to rescue them.
In the distance, several tanks were rushing towards the camp, crossing the wreckage. They were wrapped in snow mist stirred up by their tracks. Their ferocious, flat and wide front parts occasionally appeared from the snow mist, like vicious turtles rushing out of the waves. The flashes from the muzzles of their smoothbore guns occasionally lit up, like the shining eyes of the vicious turtles.
The melee between low-altitude helicopters in the distance was still going on. An Apache exploded in mid-air not far away, and an unrecognizable black armed helicopter was swaying with leaking fuel, passing over a heavy machine that stood on one side of the camp like the skeleton of a dead giant, and crashed to the ground dozens of meters away, exploding into a fireball.
The trails of close-range air-to-air missiles drew parallel white lines at low altitude, and explosions sounded one after another.
This was a hot war no less than a small war, a modern war taking place in the mountains on the outskirts of Tokyo.
"Was the general just now his real body?" Lu Mingfei asked.
"No, his blood should be red, but the blood of that monster just now was black." Yuan Zhinv said with a smile.
He didn't seem angry, as if he was used to it.
"Where have you been these days?" Lu Mingfei asked again.
"Remember Sakurai Kogure?"
"Ah."
"I asked her to go to London. There is an old banker there who said he could help me protect her. Even if the king goes there, it will be useless." Yuan Zhinv still smiled. "I went to London with her. I think this country is about to end. It doesn't matter if we guilty people die here, but she is still clean."
When they say someone is clean, they mean that person is not burdened with sin.
Sakurai Kogure doesn't look like a good kid who has never violated the law, but in the eyes of the devil, perhaps the most vicious criminal in the world is also a pure person.
Lu Mingfei fell silent.
He remembered that a long time ago, when facing the final battle against the Snake Eight Clan, Minamoto Chisei also made a similar choice. He let Eri seek refuge in Korea, even though he knew in his heart that as a demon girl, she could not escape the fate of death even if she escaped from the country. Even though he knew that if he let Eri join that war, the final victory would be in favor of the family, he still made that choice.
It seems that this pair of brothers really look alike.
"She is willing to leave? I think that girl seems to like you." Lu Mingfei said.
"I told her that I would come to see her in a month at most, and then I would never come back to Japan. We would go to Scotland or Ireland or hide somewhere, and no one would be able to find us," said Minamoto Chijo. "She was very happy."
"You killed the crow?"
Yuan Zhinv was stunned and his expression was gloomy.
"It's me," he said, "or rather, it's Fengjian Liuli. The restrictions I put on him are being weakened, as if the evil spirit is about to break out of the cage. Sometimes I don't even know what I'm doing."
Lu Mingfei nodded, knowing that General Wang was playing tricks with the bangzi sound.
There are many people in this world who are forced to do things against their will, and some hatred just accumulates.
He can't control these things, he can only control himself.
"What is the purpose of the ghosts coming here?" he asked again.
"They caught some ghost-toothed vipers from the well and installed many positioning devices on them," said Yuan Zhinv. "These little monsters will only follow the awakened gods. The king wants to grasp the dynamics of the gods."
Chapter 364 Senior Sister: Accompany Me to Hokkaido Hot Springs
"How do you feel?" Lu Mingfei steered with one hand, a lit cigarette between his lips. The Lexus sedan he had taken from Yuan Zhinv was speeding along the winding mountain road against the wind and snow.
"You have fought with Feng Jian Liuli. Do you think Chu Zihang can handle that boy?"
"I don't know. I was already very cautious, but I didn't realize how he appeared next to me until I was subdued." Qi Lan leaned against the co-pilot, still feeling that his whole body was soaked in cold sweat.
In fact, he had sensed through the Word of Prophecy that an attack would occur, so he had been in a state of extreme caution and was highly alert to the environment around him.
But Yuan Zhinv, or Fengjian Liuli, suddenly appeared beside him like a ghost and immediately struck his ganglia, so that Qilan couldn't even alert Lu Mingfei.
You have to know that even if Qilan's specialty is not fighting, he is definitely not a useless person who has no ability to fight back against a strong enemy.
Not every A-grade person is like Lu Mingfei, the academy loser who was once known as a genius. The real high-level hybrids have even completely transcended the category of humans.
"I have fought with Yuan Zhisheng before. Chu Zihang or Caesar would not be a match for that guy if they fight head-on." Lu Mingfei thought for a moment and said, "Except when using the Blood Burst Technique."
Last fall, the Senate and the Board of Directors had a big disagreement on how to deal with the fact that Lu Mingfei used forbidden technology to temporarily enhance his bloodline, which was exposed in the Chicago incident. But in the end, the hearing originally scheduled for the end of October or the beginning of November was cancelled because the Gattuso family insisted on taking the Seven Deadly Sins away from Lu Mingfei and letting Caesar use a bullet made from the Philosopher's Stone to pierce Norton's heart. The Board of Directors therefore owed Lu Mingfei a favor.
At almost the same time, the Elders began to promote the reform of the Abraham Bloodline Contract, advocating that the use of "forbidden techniques for temporarily enhancing bloodline" be abolished or amended from the criminal code.
In March of this year, the Bloodline Contract, which has been used for thousands of years, was revised for the first time since 1850. When fighting against dragons, deadpools and evil hybrids, the use of Blood Rage, a technique derived from the Lionheart Society's path to deification, is considered an emergency avoidance and will not be punished.
That is to say, even if Caesar and Chu Zihang used violent blood, they would not be brought back to the academy for trial.
Yuan Zhisheng's bloodline is indeed very strong. According to the academy's classification, it should be S-level, and his words are also abnormally strong. He is the king with a very high sequence number in the series of the King of the Earth and the Mountain.
When this word spirit is used to its limit, it can even put dozens of tons of weight on a person. The person who experiences it will be crushed into minced meat without even having the chance to scream.
But after Chu Zihang and Caesar accepted the transformation of the Nibelungen Project, their bloodline has reached S, and their physical fitness and spiritual power have been strengthened exponentially. If Chu Zihang uses the third degree of blood burst, he can even intervene in the battlefield of the Dragon King level in a short period of time. This is a fact that has already happened in another world. Even if Yuan Zhisheng is a pervert, he can't have the combat power of the Dragon King level, right?
The wipers of the Lexus were swinging left and right like crazy, the snow and hail hit the windshield with a crackling sound, and the sound of artillery fire in the mountains was still endless. It was obvious that neither the Eight Clans of Sheqi nor the Fierce Ghosts had any intention of retreating.
Even Lu Mingfei had rarely seen such scenes. Even if a high-level hybrid intervened, he could be killed instantly.
"I read in the information that Kazama Ruri is a depraved half-breed who once hunted more than twenty girls in Kobe, but he looks very normal." Qilan thought for a moment, recalling the way the boy looked at her when she had close contact with Genji just now.
It was not like the violent and ferocious eyes they had seen in textbooks, but rather humble.
Even after hitting his ganglion, Yuan Zhinv helped Qi Lan to squat down slowly and apologized to him in a low voice.
"He does look a lot like his brother though, just more feminine," Qilan said.
“In fact, many people in this world are forced to do things against their will. Some people are forced by life, wealth, women or some inexplicable things, while others are forced by the devil.” Lu Mingfei said, his tone indifferent, but there was inexplicable sadness in his heart.
In fact, to this day, his life is being driven by the devil towards his own end.
So who was it that pushed Genjitsu to where she is today, the angry, hateful, and unyielding Kazama Ruri, or the king general who might have never existed?
"We all know the story of the brothers. The story ends with the elder brother killing the younger brother and burying him and his past self in a dry well in the mountains." Lu Mingfei sighed.
"But no one has ever remembered one thing. In fact, demons have always been stronger than demon slayers. They are at a disadvantage only because they don't have a qualified teacher to teach them how to win... But the Minamoto Chijo who came back from hell has received the best training. He is far more powerful than the Minamoto Chisei."
Perhaps Yuan Zhisheng felt a little guilty, guilty that he had stabbed the knife into the chest of the person who trusted him the most with his own hands.
In fact, Genjitsu really wanted to see his brother in his true appearance, but how could he do that? Kazama Ruri was hiding in the shadow of his soul, harboring a huge grudge and wanting to kill his brother.
"So is our mission accomplished?" Qilan asked suddenly.
Lu Mingfei was stunned.
"I mean, this is my first practical class..."
"The academy wants us to confirm whether there are a large number of dragon subspecies hidden in the Red Devil River. I think we have completed the task." Lu Mingfei said, patting the chair.
Behind the armchair was a huge resin glass water tank, which contained a thick scarlet liquid with countless particles floating in it. Occasionally, a few slender, bright blue tails could be seen flashing by.
That was the Akagi River water sample that Genjiro placed in the car and the living Vipera spp. in the water sample.
Creatures like the Ghosttooth Viper not only rely on magma to survive, but long-term and stable dragon gene fragments are also essential to maintaining their lives.
