Dragon Raja: I practiced Naruto ninjutsu next to Lu Mingfei.

To save face for the principal, Gu Ran flicked a shuriken from his hand and sent the giant rat to meet Jesus.

Angers was very pleased with the students' performance, so he took the two students on a tour of the ice cellar.

They walked through the botanical garden, visited the zoo, and then took the elevator down to see the Angers collection.

This old man actually brought in a pyramid from the rainforest.

The pyramids are actually tombs.

Gu Ran looked at the pyramid and complained, "I don't understand. If you're going to rob a tomb, you don't have to bring the whole burial mound back with you, do you?"

"Is this what they call thieves never leaving empty-handed?" Lu Mingfei glanced at the pyramid, which actually had inscriptions on it. "The principal didn't even spare the tombstones!"

“You two are ignorant! This pyramid of mine is the Mayan calendar!” Angers was very unhappy. These two students actually thought he was a tomb robber. Was he a thief?

The principal, being an educator with good manners, quickly regained his composure and began telling the two students about the Mayan prophecy.

This refers to the 2012 doomsday prophecy.

According to the Mayan calendar, December 21, 2012, would be the end of the world.

World civilization has five cycles of destruction and rebirth, known as the "Sun Age," and 2012 marked the beginning of the fifth "Sun Age."

Lu Mingfei quipped that if the Maya were really that powerful, they would have driven back the European slave traders long ago, instead of being conquered by guns and cannons.

Angers said that all the prophetic books in history were not written by humans, but by dragons, and humans were merely the relayers.

There are many similar prophecies, such as the Buddhist prophecy of the three calamities that destroy the world, namely fire, flood, and wind.

There's also the biblical flood that destroyed the world, and Ragnarok in Norse mythology.

Lu Mingfei thought the principal was getting more and more mysterious, and retorted, "So, Principal, did you secretly build a shipyard on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau? Do you sell tickets? Is my credit card limit enough to buy a ticket?"

Angers pointed to the things around him and said, "Kassel College is like a giant ship. It has alchemy, botanical gardens, zoos, supercomputers, all kinds of technology... There's even a miniature reactor under the ice cellar, enough to operate this place for 500 years!"

"We've already prepared a backup plan, are we really that pessimistic?" Gu Ran looked around at the things around him, which seemed to be humanity's last hope on the Ark. "It's not scarcity that's the problem, but inequality. So who can survive? Not everyone is willing to sacrifice themselves, right?"

Gu Ran glanced at Lu Mingfei beside him and continued, "Moreover... I suspect that some people have already started to flee. They believe that humanity is not worth saving and that the end of the world is inevitable, so they are fleeing alone."

"They didn't even call us when they ran away, how disloyal!" Lu Mingfei said indignantly.

Angers and Gu Ran looked at him together.

The person who fled was your father, Lu Lincheng.

Lu Mingfei looked completely innocent: "Why are you all looking at me like that? If I were to run away, I would definitely call you all!"

"I believe you. You've always been a gentle and good kid." Gu Ran smiled and put his arm around Lu Mingfei's shoulder.

Lu Mingfei stepped aside: "Even if it's the end of the world, I won't be gay!"

Angers looked at Gu Ran and thought to himself that this kid seemed to know quite a bit of inside information.

“But I won’t go with you,” the old headmaster said, holding a wine glass. “As the last survivor of the Lionheart Society, I’ve lived enough. This place is for you young people to retire in.”

He took a sip of his drink, pointed to a spot in mid-air, and the two students looked in the direction he was pointing.

There was a black iron box in mid-air, which Gu Ran and Lu Mingfei had not noticed before.

Angers pointed to it and said, "This is the Constantine Dragon Cross, currently the only confirmed Dragon Cross in the world."

He finished his drink and said to Gu Ran, "Many people have been eyeing it lately. You and the Lionheart Society should keep an eye on it."

Gu Ran nodded and agreed.

He then realized that the principal also had the intention of sending him back to school.

*……*……*

In the ward, Chu Zihang gradually woke up. When he opened his eyes, he vaguely saw a face approaching.

The face was beautiful, like an angel's, and she smelled wonderful. He raised his head slightly, trying to see her face more clearly.

"Senior brother, you've only just woken up and you're already trying to take advantage of me?" the other person finally spoke up.

Chu Zihang then realized that it wasn't an angel, but Xia Mi.

"So... I didn't die." Chu Zihang calmly accepted this fact.

Xia Mi started to take credit, saying that she was the one who saved Chu Zihang's life. She flew out and caught him as he fell, saving him with the Eye of the Wind King.

Of course, in the end, the two of them fell into the water, and it was Gu Ran who went into the water and pulled him out.

"But I can swim too! Even without Senior Brother Gu, I can still get you ashore!" Xia Mi happily attributed all the credit to herself.

Chu Zihang nodded, his face still expressionless.

He is now covered in wires and tubes, reportedly because the high-voltage current passing through his body has paralyzed his muscles. Fortunately, the current did not pass through his heart, otherwise he would have died.

The two chatted for a while longer, and Xia Mi told Chu Zihang not to be so stubborn, as no one expected him to save the world.

Chu Zihang said that if he couldn't do it, it was all his fault, and he didn't want to be a coward.

Xia Mi said that if you always act so stubbornly, you'll easily die, and then you'll have to spend money to buy flowers for your grave, which is both expensive and troublesome.

Chu Zihang couldn't keep up with her train of thought and felt increasingly sleepy. However, Xia Mi had already curled up in the chair and fallen asleep before him.

The nurse checking the IV line deliberately told Chu Zihang, "She hasn't slept for forty-eight hours and has been waiting for you to wake up."

Chu Zihang looked at her sleeping peacefully, just like a cat that had just finished playing.

"President, let me carry her to the next ward. There are empty beds there." Li Enshu walked in at this moment, with Gu Ran beside her.

This pretty South Korean girl has a cheerful personality. She doesn't idolize the expressionless Chu Zihang, but prefers to keep calling out "Oppa, Oppa" to Gu Ran.

"Thank you," Chu Zihang said earnestly.

Li Enshu carried Xia Mi to another room, but the medical staff who were busy at Chu Zihang's bedside did not leave, as there seemed to be many tests to be done.

"Xia Mi said you saved me by jumping into the water," Chu Zihang said. "Thank you."

"It's nothing, just remember to treat me to a meal later." Gu Ran peeled an orange for Chu Zihang and gave him half.

"Senior, many people care about you. Rescue workers should prioritize their own safety before trying to save more people."

Chu Zihang remained silent for a moment, then nodded slightly.

Gu Ran patted his shoulder, knowing he hadn't listened, but she didn't press him.

This senior brother is tough; he has the cocoon of Jormungandr inside his body, so he won't die so easily.

"I'm leaving now, I won't disturb your rest." Gu Ran took two more oranges with her, intending to take them back to her dorm to eat.

He didn't treat Chu Zihang, and now that Xia Mi is here, it would be bad if she noticed anything amiss.

*……*……*

In the days that followed, Gu Ran began his daily cultivation, meditating under the waterfall of Mount Myoboku to increase his spiritual energy.

During his time back in China, he also practiced meditation, meditating for four hours every day. Only during the time he was traveling by car with Su Xiaoqiang did he have less time to practice, and he used fragmented moments to meditate.

In his dream of Mount Myōboku, he felt his spiritual power becoming increasingly abundant, and the sensing range of the Flying Thunder God Mark had reached fifty kilometers.

Another benefit of increased mental strength is that the Sharingan becomes increasingly easier to use.

He recently copied the ability of the King of Earth and Mountains to find 'eyes', and combined with the Sharingan's perception ability, he can find 'eye locations' almost instantly.

"After a few days of freedom, I can find someone to fight and test my strength." Gu Ran couldn't help but look forward to that day of freedom.

This year's stake for Freedom Day is one million US dollars in community funds—not a lot of money, but it's significant.

The student council and the Lionheart Club were both competitive organizations. The losing organization had to pay reparations, a humiliation akin to the Song Dynasty paying tribute to the Liao Dynasty, which was akin to the victorious nation forcing the defeated nation to cede territory and pay reparations.

So this year's bets are quite interesting.

A lot has happened at school these days.

Angers went to see Chu Zihang and hypnotized him when he was in a daze.

During hypnosis, Angers learned about Chu Zihang's past entry into Odin's Nibelungen.

This matter greatly surprised Angers, who felt he needed to discuss it thoroughly with the vice-principal.

Afterwards, he asked Chu Zihang about the blood explosion.

Angers was a member of the first generation of the Lionheart Society, so of course he knew about Blood Explosion.

Chu Zihang had previously learned from Gu Ran's reminder in the Jade Record that Blood Explosion was likely a form of alchemy.

He told Angers that shortly after becoming the president of the Lionheart Society, he deduced the method of blood explosion from previous materials.

Angers said that the technique of blood explosion is very dangerous and can turn people into Deadpool.

Chu Zihang also understood that every time he experienced a burst of blood, he couldn't suppress his 'killing will'. The bloodthirsty genes of the dragon race made him extremely irrational.

In short, Angers warned Chu Zihang to be careful and not to recklessly use his blood-draining abilities, otherwise he might really die young.

Chapter 277 The Day of Freedom at the Start of the New Semester

Meanwhile, the school board, represented by the Gattuso family, finally planned to take action against Angers.

They understood that Angers' position as leader of the Secret Service was irreplaceable, but they could take some power from him.

The first thing to do is to undermine his authority.

Caesar's uncle, Frost, saw Chu Zihang's information. Although he didn't know that Chu Zihang had entered Nibelungen, he deduced that someone was targeting Chu Zihang based on the three incidents: the South Railway Station, the Runde Building, and Six Flags Park.

He planned to use the excuse that Chu Zihang had a dangerous bloodline but was arbitrarily introduced by the principal to impeach Angers.

Chu Zihang is now riddled with bugs; not only has his blood exceeded the critical blood limit, but he has also entered the Nibelungen.

If the Gattuso family were to seize these incriminating evidence, Angers being stripped of power would be a minor matter; more seriously, Chu Zihang might be executed by the Secret Service.

The Secret Party appears to be a school, but in reality, it is a ruthless organization that dictates everything. Its existence is not to provide for the post-apocalyptic world, but to slay dragons!

They never show mercy to their enemies.

Perhaps the members of the Secret Society each have their own agendas, but their goal of slaying the dragon is the same.

Except for the doomsday prophet.

*……*……*

A few days later, it was Freedom Day this year.

On the eve of Freedom Day, Professor Manstein sent an email to all students, reiterating the Three Main Rules of Discipline:
