Chapter 250: Sudden Shura Field
The car stopped in front of the villa. Jiude Mai and Ling helped Charlotte lie down on the bed in Lu Mingfei's room.

"I'm fine. You should contact the people from Kassel College and the Valentine family first..." Charlotte said reluctantly, leaning against the head of the bed.

Several people subconsciously looked at Su Xiaoqiang. Su Xiaoqiang was stunned and pointed at himself.

Several people nodded in unison.

"I, I understand. I'll go call my uncle and find the medical kit."

Only Charlotte, Mai Jiude, Ling and Lu Mingfei were left in the room. Mai Jiude, wearing a tight combat uniform, walked to the window and combed her long hair in the sunlight, with two ninja swords flashing under her clothes. The place in front of the bed was left for Lu Mingfei and Ling.

"Charlotte, you just said that Father Bernardo intends to replace the bone marrow of a pure-blooded dragon with his own body?" Lu Mingfei asked while the little angel was away, "Can you explain it briefly?"

At this time, Charlotte's pale face had regained some redness. Her bloodline was A-grade, with a very high purity. With the blessing of the dragon blood gene, the moment she lost blood, her bone marrow, thymus and lymph nodes quickly began hematopoietic activities. After just a period of rest, her body's blood loss was greatly improved.

Charlotte looked at Lu Mingfei and nodded.

"More than a year ago, the Gaotingen family heard about this rumor. Someone was suspected of conducting human alchemy experiments in North America. They transplanted bone marrow extracted from dragons into humans to filter out poisonous blood, and then injected the filtered blood into humans for exchange, in order to purify the bloodline."

"I have heard of this technology. In the Middle Ages, alchemists were keen on human alchemy experiments. At that time, hybrids of different factions inhumanely captured witches and pagans as human alchemy experiments. It is said that alchemist Nicholas Flamel once completed this design, but there is a lack of reliable documentation, and its credibility is still questionable."

Jiude Mai walked over with her arms folded. "However, in history, the popularity of human alchemy experiments only lasted for about a hundred years. Because the experiments often only created a bunch of uncontrollable deadpools. In addition, with the advent of the Age of Exploration, the excavation of dragon ruins exceeded the popularity of human alchemy, and human alchemy was considered an inhumane experiment by more and more hybrids. Faced with the dual dilemma of losing financial support and being subjected to moral accusations, the craze for human alchemy soon disappeared. Is it really possible to realize bloodline preservation technology?"

Charlotte looked at Mai Jiude, her face clearly hesitant for a moment, then shook her head and said, "Sorry, I don't know about this. The Gottingen family has always been opposed to human alchemy. I came to Portugal this time because I heard that Portugal recently imported a large amount of 'antimony', and 'antimony' is one of the important materials for human alchemy, so I came here secretly without telling my family."

"I heard that this experiment requires pure-blooded dragons or pure-blooded ancient dragon samples. Where did Bernardo get the ancient dragon samples for the blood transfusion?"

"The Solomon's Temple has always had the technology to raise purebred dragons. As far as I know, they have been able to completely tame at least four generations of dragons for their use. Although I don't know the principle behind it. The reason why they were able to become the largest hybrid organization in Europe and compete with the Camarilla is because of this technology."

Charlotte shook her head and continued, "Although I don't know whether Bernardo has really mastered this technology, from what he said, he seems to have made sufficient preparations and wants to use me as a vessel for his blood transfusion."

As Charlotte spoke, she immediately looked at Lu Mingfei, wanting him to ask if he had contacted anyone at Kassel Academy and the Valentine family. However, the moment her eyes fell on Lu Mingfei, she was suddenly stunned.

Because the boy in front of her had started to tremble. Not because of fear, but because of anger or cruelty. Because she saw the furious eyes under Lu Mingfei's bangs, and his clenched hands, the nails of which almost sank into his palms, as if he wanted to grasp and crush something.

Herzog - Lu Mingfei suddenly remembered this name.

The guy who used Eri as a vessel to exchange the White King's bone marrow... that incomplete and lowly creature!

The moment this thought came to his mind, Lu Mingfei, who was originally in a state of rage, suddenly stopped, not knowing why such an adjective popped up in his mind.

But that kind of anger truly came from his own emotions... Bernardo planned to do the same thing as Herzog, what is their relationship?
Just at this moment, Su Xiaoqiang stumbled in, holding a medicine box.

"How is it? Have you contacted your uncle and the others?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"I can't get through to my uncle's phone, but I've asked the housekeeper to find Professor Mans' contact information. He will notify us if there is any news." Su Xiaoqiang replied.

Lu Mingfei looked at Charlotte: "You just said that Father Bernardo intends to use you as a vessel for his blood exchange... Does that mean he hasn't found a suitable vessel yet?"

"No, he should have found it," Charlotte said. "It's Miss Qin from the Temple of Solomon."

Lu Mingfei had also seen Miss Qin that Charlotte mentioned. On the first day in Santarém, she helped him deal with the aftermath of the encounter on the train. She also came to Valentine's house later.

In other words, Bernardo has made all preparations, and may even have...

Lu Mingfei closed his eyes, and those unbearable memories suddenly flashed through his mind. He shook his head violently, as if trying to shake off these horrible and sad memories, and immediately stood up and said, "There is no time to wait here for news from Professor Mance and the others. We have to set out now to stop Bernardo's actions."

Although he said "we", he actually only considered himself in his heart. Charlotte was still injured, and at this point in time, Zero and he had just met. It was still unknown whether she and Jude Mai would come with him.

"Lu Mingfei, are you going to do something dangerous?" Su Xiaoqiang, who had been standing at the door, suddenly asked, with worry written all over her face. Although she didn't understand what Lu Mingfei and the others were talking about, and didn't want to believe that Father Bernardo was a bad guy, she could vaguely feel that Lu Mingfei was going to do something very dangerous.

Lu Mingfei stared at the little angel in a daze, and calmed his emotions without making any expression. He didn't smile until his fists slowly loosened. Just as he was about to say something to comfort the little angel, he suddenly heard Jiude Mai's voice from behind him.

"In fact, your boyfriend is much more capable than you think, so you don't have to worry so much, little beauty." Jiude Mai shrugged: "If you are really worried, we are still following him."

"Is it possible that she is worried because you are following Lu Mingfei?" Charlotte, leaning against the head of the bed, complained coldly.

"Oh my, so you think I'm your rival, my little beauty?" Jiude Mai's rosy eyes fluttered slightly, and she put her hand on Ling's shoulder: "Then you might as well be on guard against the girl next to me. Maybe your boyfriend likes this kind of loli type of girl?"

Damn it, Jiude Mai, don't add fuel to the fire, the little angel might really believe it! And what does this have to do with Zero? Although I kissed you once, twice, and three times, my relationship with Zero is pure!
He subconsciously looked at Ling beside him. Ling was wearing a men's coat with a hood. The large coat almost covered her upper body, and the hem did not reach her thighs. Her hands were clenched like a cat's fists, and she placed them on her knees obediently. Her skin was so white that it was almost transparent.

Compared to the seventeen-year-old Zero whom I met in my freshman year, the fourteen-year-old Zero in front of me seemed to be no different. They were the same height and had the same delicate face. It was as if time had stopped for this little girl.

Noticing Lu Mingfei's gaze, Ling turned his head to meet his gaze, without a trace of fluctuation in his eyes.

"Do you like girls like me?" Ling looked up at Lu Mingfei, his voice cold, stroking his hair.
“She, she shouldn’t be even fourteen years old, right? Lu Mingfei, you’re a changer…!”

"Wait a minute, I don't think I said anything?"

Lu Mingfei didn't know how the originally serious topic suddenly turned into a Shura scene, and Ling also said some inexplicable words, making him look like a pervert.

"Lu Mingfei, do you really want to go to see Father Bernardo?" Charlotte suddenly asked.

Lu Mingfei looked into Charlotte's green eyes and nodded: "Go, go now."

"Are you going too?" Charlotte turned her gaze to Jude Mai and Ling.

"Go." Zero replied coldly.

"Then take me with you," said Charlotte, lifting the quilt covering her body.

"Take you with me?" Lu Mingfei paused, "Wait a minute, Charlotte, your injuries should not have healed yet, right?"

"It's just a minor injury." Charlotte had jumped off the bed, stepped her little feet in white silk into her little leather shoes, and grasped the cane beside the bed.

"But……"

"Do you know how to stop the human body from being transformed?" Charlotte said, "I'm afraid I'm the only one here who knows the most about alchemy. You may not be able to stop Bernardo by yourself."

The reasons Charlotte gave were so convincing that even Lu Mingfei could not find any reason to refute them, so he could only reluctantly agree with Charlotte.

Then everyone's attention was focused on Su Xiaoqiang again.

"I understand! ... I am conscious, I am conscious, I am at home looking after the house."

Su Xiaoqiang bit her lip unwillingly and put the medicine box on the table beside her: "Although I really want to say 'I want to go too'...but I still won't go. I don't know anything, and if I go I will only hold you back...I don't want to be that brainless girl who holds the protagonist back in TV dramas."

Lu Mingfei originally thought that the little goddess might be a little willful or something, but he didn't expect that the little goddess was so considerate.

Before Lu Mingfei could say anything, Su Xiaoqiang suddenly rushed over and hugged him tightly, buried his head in his chest and rubbed it, then gently dropped a fist on his chest like a spoiled child, raised his bright eyes and said hatefully: "Lu Mingfei, you have to come back soon."
