Chapter 119 Kuimen
After returning home, while having dinner, Su Xiaoyan asked Zhang Baiqing: "Didn't Zihang come back with you?"

"No, he has something else to do and hasn't come back with me yet."

The two left home for Japan during the holidays under the pretext of school activities, but did not tell their parents where they were going.

Before going to Japan, they felt there might be risks, so they didn't tell their parents.

Otherwise, if I told my parents that I was going to Japan, they would definitely be worried to death considering the national disaster that occurred in Japan some time ago.

"How was your year at school? Did you get along well with any girls? By the way, is Zihang still in touch with that girl named Xia Mi?"

Su Xiaoyan inquired about the news casually. The first sentence mentioned him, and the second sentence mentioned Chu Zihang. She was sure that he would choose to talk about the second sentence.

"There should be a connection. Besides, Xia Mi has already applied for a grade skipping and will report to Kassel College when school starts this year."

As she expected, Zhang Baiqing decisively chose to sell the person.

"Oh? As expected, he is a kid who can go to Peking University's preparatory class. He can skip grades just like that."

As soon as Su Xiaoyan heard this, she became interested and started asking about these gossips.

Far away in the United States, Principal Ange, who had just returned to Kassel College, soon became busy again. Professor Mans from the "Kuimen Project" team, one of the teams responsible for searching for the dragon tomb, came to him.

The Chinese side had never agreed to the previous plan regarding Kuimen, because their operation was expected to involve heavy weapons, and the search range was from Fengjie Kuimen to the waterway of the Three Gorges Dam.

If it didn't need to pass through the Three Gorges Dam, they might have agreed directly, but the scope of the operation included the Three Gorges Dam, which made them pay attention to it.

The Three Gorges Dam generates hundreds of billions of kilowatt-hours of electricity each year, and its functions such as regulating water conservancy can be said to be the lifeline of the region.

The Kassel Academy will carry heavy weapons during the operation, so it is undoubtedly risky for them to take action.

The equipment department and executive department of the academy had already made preparations for the "Kuimen Plan", but it could not be implemented because the Chinese side disagreed.

They have been modifying the plan to better meet the requirements, and lobbying hard. Until some time ago, the disaster caused by the resurrection of the Dragon King in the Tokyo Bay area of ​​Japan scared the hybrids of China.

The disaster brought by the Dragon King's revival seemed to be no less serious than the direct collapse of the Three Gorges Dam, which shook their thoughts.

The original plan of Kassel Academy was to bring weapons and equipment to search directly, fearing that if a dragon king was found, the dragon king would directly awaken. Kassel Academy has already suffered losses in this regard, with the Greenland Sea tragedy just ahead.

But the Chinese side will not agree to this plan.

Kassel College has now modified its plan to send people and ships first, carrying search equipment but without any weapons.

The Chinese side also thought that this plan was worth a try and was originally discussing whether to agree to their planned action. Then they saw the tragic situation in Japan, so the new plan of Kassel Academy was immediately approved after a brief discussion.

If a dragon king revives at the Three Gorges Dam, judging by the situation in Japan's Tokyo Bay, it would likely be even more troublesome. They must try to nip this potential danger in the bud.

"You came to me, is there any new progress in the Kuimen Project?" Angers asked Professor Mans.

"Yes, yesterday, the Chinese side agreed to our latest plan. We can first send people and ships to the Yangtze River to search."

Professor Mans, a middle-aged man, sat opposite Ange. He nodded and asked, "Have the other three action teams found anything?"

In the plan to find the Dragon Tomb, there are a total of four groups, including the group led by Professor Mans, which are searching in Qinghai-Tibet, the Western Regions, Greenland and Mexico in China.

Angers said softly, "They didn't find anything, so now we have to hope that the Kuimen Project will find something. The Kuilong mentioned by the ancient Chinese refers to a one-legged ancient dragon. According to their realistic recording style, it is possible that the ancients saw a dragon swimming in the river, so they named that place Kuimen. And this Kuilong is very likely the king of bronze and fire, a noble first-generation ancient dragon."

"Maybe? Then the Kuimen Project will start as planned?"

"Hmm." After saying that, Angé turned the pen in his hand and fell into thought.

Mance got Ange's consent, but seeing that he was lost in thought again, he asked, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing." Angers came back to his senses. "When will the plan start? Will there be anything missing?"

"We plan to launch the plan in a week." Mans said, "If there are any omissions, I think we can't carry heavy weapons to look for them. If we alarm the Dragon King, we won't have a good way to slay the dragon, which will undoubtedly lead to the failure of the operation."

"The Chinese side will not agree with your idea, but it's fine if you can convince them."

After Mance left, Angers continued to think about what had just happened. He actually wanted to ask Pompey's opinion on the Kuimen plan.

Judging from the sword of Damocles in the hands of the Gattuso family, they are aiming for great things. But no matter what they aim for, as long as they are dragon slayers, Angers will firmly support them.

But this secret party family is not that simple. The speculation about the White King was proposed by Pompey, and this speculation was very accurate. There is also the Sword of Damocles flying in the sky, the Trieste diving to the extreme depths in the sea, and the Nibelungen Plan of the mixed-blood king.

This made Angers think of one thing, that is, the Gattuso family was too well prepared, and seemed to be at the forefront in every field that could slay dragons.

What are they planning?

Several different ideas flashed through Angers' mind, but he dismissed them all in the end. It would be better for him not to mention these ideas that were not conducive to unity.

The phone rang, and when Angé looked at the caller, it was Uesugi Yue. He was a little surprised. After thinking about the possibility that Uesugi Yue was calling him, he answered the call.

He asked Uesugi Yue: "Hey, what do you want to talk to me about? Did something big happen in Japan?"

"Nothing serious." Uesugi Yue said to Ange, "Regarding the situation of the person behind Bondarev, do you have any inferences from Kassel Academy?"

Angers is not too clear about this. Their Kassel Academy is also trying to find information about Bondarev and Herzog.

Before that, they were looking for the Lenin nuclear-powered icebreaker only because the ship suddenly sank in the calm Japanese waters, and they suspected that something involving the dragon clan was on the ship, so they went looking for it.

"Not at the moment." Ange said, "What's the matter? You called me, isn't it just for this?"

He thought that if Uesugi Yue had not obtained the information about Herzog and Bondarev, then he had something very special to tell him. After all, this movie king was always straightforward, and beating around the bush was not Uesugi Yue's style. Uesugi Yue said, "Hey, just a small matter. I just want to ask if you have any dragon-slaying plans in the past three or four years at Kassel Academy? Have you found any traces of dragons?"

"This is the internal information of our Kassel Academy." Angers thought for a moment, "But given our friendship, I can tell you that we are only working hard to find the dragon, but we haven't found any traces of the dragon directly. If you want to participate in our dragon-slaying plan, you can directly join our Kassel Academy. We can give you a specially appointed tenured professor."

Uesugi asked this question again and again, as if to confirm whether they had any dragon-slaying work in the near future.

If he said yes, would Uesugi Yue participate? Otherwise, why would he call to ask about this matter? He couldn't be trying to help Long destroy Kassel Academy, right?
What kind of grudge is this?

Although he didn't understand why Uesugi Yue, who had been hiding for most of his life, suddenly wanted to slay the dragon, this did not prevent Ang from warmly welcoming this big monster Uesugi Yue to participate in the dragon-slaying cause.

Especially since Uesugi Yue had read the ancient books passed down from generation to generation by the Eight Snake Families, they might come in handy someday.

So Angers directly stated that they were trying hard to find the dragon's traces.

"Are you trying hard to find one?" Uesugi Yue laughed, "Your suggestion as a tenured professor is quite good. How about this, my daughters Eri and Gen Chino also come to your Kassel Academy to study together? How do you think?"

We are trying hard to find the trace of the dragon, but doesn’t that mean we haven’t found it?

He added: "But I need Kassel College to help us study our bloodline and solve the problem of our bloodline being too unstable."

Rare things like Dragon Kings wouldn't revive one after another, right? Moreover, he could also use the scientific technology of Kassel College to try to solve the dilemma of the unstable bloodline of the Eight Snake Clan.

Yuan Zhisheng was deeply confused on this point.

And if the situation did not progress, he could wait for Eri and Genjitsu to finish school and then take them back to Japan immediately. Three or four short years couldn't be more exciting than his own life in the past six months, right?
"Of course you can. Our Kassel Academy always welcomes all half-bloods who aspire to slay dragons."

"The bloodline issue also troubles us. I also warmly welcome the Eight Snake Clan to strengthen cooperation with us in this regard."

Angé readily agreed with Uesugi Yue's idea, but after hanging up the phone, he was a little puzzled as to why Uesugi Yue wanted to join Kassel Academy with his children.

Could it be that because his children were shocked by the domineering display of Uesugi Yue in killing the Yamata no Orochi, Uesugi Yue tried hard to present the image of a dragon-slaying hero?
This does make sense.

Apart from Minamoto no Chisei, Ange had little contact with Minamoto no Chino, and he had only seen paper information about Uesugi Eri.

"Old man Ange has agreed." Uesugi Yue hung up the phone and said to Genji and Eri, "Kassel Academy is a place where people are attracted to the wind. Even if they don't take the initiative to look for the dragon, the dragon may take the initiative to look for them. Although the probability is a little low, you still have to be smart. After entering Kassel Academy, if you encounter such a thing, protect yourself first."

Eri said happily, "I understand."

Uesugi Yue nodded. He had no way to deal with Eri's death.

"Master Yue, I want to go to college."

"If I went to a normal university, I would feel like a monster compared to them."

"College is fun. That's what they say on TV."

"Master Yue, you didn't go to college either, did you?"

"Didn't Brother Yuan Zhinu also not go to college?"

"..."

Eri spoke nonsense in a serious and well-reasoned manner, saying that life is so short and it would be a shame not to go to college and experience campus life.

Uesugi Yue didn't feel any regret about going to college, even though he was a child who received a formal French education and did not grow up in the old times.

It is true that college life is good. When he returned to Japan and ascended the throne at the age of eighteen, in addition to those women who were lured to serve him, there were also some rare and intellectual female college students who came to serve him.

At that time, female college students in Japan were countless times rarer than those in China. Many Japanese officers could meet important figures such as lieutenant generals and admirals, but had never seen female college students.

At that time, Japanese female college students could not go to college just by having the desire and talent. All of them had extraordinary family backgrounds.

However, Yuan Zhinu was not sensitive about going to college. It didn't matter to her whether she went or not. She had been to middle school and knew what college was like. To her, it was just that.

He has no utilitarian ambitions and it is fine for him to just lie down all day and have Sakurai Kogure give him a massage. If the Snake Eight Clan encounters trouble, he will come forward to help his brother solve it. This kind of life is fine.

It was not until Eri suggested that Uesugi Yue join Kassel Academy that, with his ability, he could even just sit on an empty professorship, and then ask Kassel Academy to help deal with the unstable bloodline of the Snake Eight Families.

This sentence made Gen Chisei look at Uesugi Yue.

Now the only problem left for the Sheqi Eight Clans to solve is this one. If he can complete this task, the little sense of responsibility he has will be gone, and he will retire right away. No one can stop him from selling sunscreen on the French nude beaches.

He has been really researching which sunscreen is the best recently. He is not just thinking about it, he is really buying them little by little and trying them out.

Crow was shocked and a little confused. He asked, "Head, you are going to sell sunscreen. What should we do? If we follow you to sell sunscreen, people will think we are going to rob you, right?"

Whether it is Crow or Yaksha, they all have the ferocious traditional tattoos of the Snake Eight Clans on their bodies. However, the handsome guy Yuan Zhisheng does not have any of them. He is a rare core member of the Snake Eight Clans who does not have any tattoos.

When Uesugi Yue saw the look in Minamoto no Chisei's eyes, he had to think about this problem, because although the god was dead, the curse of the Snake Eight Families was still there.

Even if he didn't care about the lives of the eight Sheqi families, what would happen to their children? If he wanted to have offspring, he would still have to face the situation he faced at the beginning - the offspring he gave birth to would most likely be a deadpool with extremely high bloodline purity!
At that time, the emperors of the Eight Clans of Sheqi had been facing this problem after their bloodlines degenerated.

Even if they produce human offspring with ordinary people, the inheritance of royal blood is not high. Uesugi Yue's father, Uesugi Hideo, is a normal person, not an emperor.

When combined with mixed-race species, the inheritance of royal blood is higher, but the chance of giving birth to a human being is lower.

As a result, the top three of the eight Snake families began to decline generation after generation. If it weren't for the appearance of Herzog, the top three families would have really died out here at Uesugi Yue.

But Herzog did not say how he selected normal genes, which is still a problem for them. After all, not everyone has Herzog's outstanding talent in biomedicine.
