Dragon Raja 5; Chapter 53: Whale Song (22)

Dragon Raja 5

 But Abbas ignored Finkel and kept looking at Caesar, “Your plane should be able to fly directly to Tokyo, right?”

“Tokyo?”

“If I were Lu Mingfei, Tokyo would be my first choice. He still has a few good friends among the Sheqi Eight Clan, and the academy’s influence hasn’t yet infiltrated Japan.”

“A fully fueled Gulfstream G650 can certainly fly non-stop to Tokyo.”

“Have you packed your luggage?”

“I always have a packed suitcase in my room, ready to go.”

“Coincidentally, I have the same habit.”

“In that case, why don’t we finish this cup of coffee and head out?”

“No problem.” Abbas picked up the half-remaining cup of black tea.

“Boss! Boss!” Finger almost knelt down and hugged his thighs. “You are planning a rebellion, do you know that? It’s fine if you want to rebel, but can you please not take me with you? Even if you insist on dragging me into the rebellion, can’t we have a more rational plan? Instead of just picking up a bag and rebelling at the drop of a hat!”

Neither Caesar nor Abbas answered. They looked at the shimmering lake, one drinking tea and the other drinking coffee.

Once the drinks in their cups are gone, they will calmly stand up, go back to their rooms, and pick up their luggage. If no one stops them, that’s even better. If someone stops them, they will break out violently.

For the former president of the Lionheart Club and the former president of the Student Union, school rules have always been a decoration. They only obey them symbolically. The elders headed by Beowulf still lack understanding of these two newcomers.

Caesar smiled and glanced at Finger. The guy’s face was full of panic, and he really looked like a dog tied to the leg of a table.

Caesar and Abbas put down their cups almost at the same time, stood up, and adjusted their cuffs…

At this moment, the big bell in Valhalla rang loudly, and the sound of the bell shook the entire campus.

Caesar and Abbas looked towards Valhalla at the same time, their faces changing color.

That is… the alarm of the Dragon King’s invasion!

    ***

Executive Department, Central Control Room, Caesar and Abbas pushed the door open and walked in.

Professor Schneider raised his hand, signaling them to be quiet, and the three of them stood shoulder to shoulder, looking up at the huge projection of the earth.

That was the Earth as seen by the Sky Eye. Day after day, year after year, the Executive Department used this projection to monitor dragon activity around the globe. Whenever a certain point lit up red, the EVA would project itself, explain the situation, offer a solution, and then the Executive Department’s specialists would be dispatched.

But this time EVA did not give any response strategy. The projected girl, together with Caesar and the others, silently looked at the huge projection of the earth – the entire Arctic Ocean was flashing with a terrifying red light.

“What is this?” Caesar asked in a calm tone.

The warning area covers the entire Arctic Ocean. Could it be that the ice sea covering an area of ​​tens of millions of square kilometers has been occupied by the Dragon King?

“It’s not that bad, but we can’t pinpoint its exact location yet, so the entire Arctic Ocean is highlighted in red,” Schneider said hoarsely.

“What kind of goal?” Abbas asked.

“It must be an old friend.” Schneider went to the cabinet next to him, took out a bottle of aged whiskey, poured himself a glass, and returned to the Earth projection with the glass of wine. “After waiting for so many years, are you finally back?”

Caesar immediately understood what the “you” referred to.

Twelve years ago, during the Greenland Incident, a mysterious creature resembling an ancient dragon froze the entire sea, leaving Schneider as the sole survivor. Although he managed to survive, the extreme cold ravaged his face and respiratory system, rendering him half-human and half-ghost, forcing him to wear a respirator for the rest of his life.

But what made him even more painful were the students who sacrificed their lives. Most of the people who followed him on the mission were his students. Schneider was very passionate about education at that time and was always surrounded by outstanding students.

After that, his personality changed drastically, completely abandoning his teaching duties and transitioning to the Executive Division. In his battles against dragons, he adopted an extremely ruthless approach. This wasn’t atonement, but revenge, and it was for this reason that Schneider earned the strong support of Principal Anjou.

Schneider’s health has been deteriorating over the years, and the school board has suggested several times that the top executive officer be replaced, but a suitable replacement has not yet been found.

But at the end of his term, Schneider met his nemesis.

He drank the glass of wine and started coughing violently. With his respiratory condition, drinking was strictly prohibited, but he was too happy today.

There are many kinds of happiness, and finally being able to cut your enemy’s throat is one of them.

“How can we confirm that it was the target in the Greenland incident?” Abbas asked.
