“There’s nothing to do with Lu Mingfei in the tunnel. You go first, I’ll go after you. We’ll take care of the Dragon Servant, it’s that simple.”
Chu Zihang paused for a moment, but still nodded heavily.
He didn't understand what Lin Chen meant by saying that, but he always believed in Lin Chen's words.
"As for Lu Mingfei," Lin Chen continued, "he has a demon hidden inside him, but the demon is still lurking."
"Understood." Lin Chen nodded.
"Can you keep it a secret?" Lin Chen asked. "If you can't, I can help you, just like Lu Mingfei did just now."
Chu Zihang shook his head: "I won't tell anyone."
Xia Mi stretched and said, "Alright then, everyone's happy!"
"But this is a big deal. The disappearance of a thousand hybrids is rare even in the history of hybrids!" Chu Zihang was still a little worried. "Even in the human world, the sudden disappearance of nearly a thousand foreign tourists in Beicheng would be a huge burden!"
"Handling public opinion is the easiest thing to do," Lin Chen laughed. "You still have one more person in your team!"
“Fingal?” Chu Zihang understood.
When the group returned to the hotel and pushed open the door, Fingel was typing away on the keyboard at his computer.
He turned around when he heard the door open, a chicken leg still dangling from his mouth.
"Good morning!" Fingel greeted, then slumped down. "Boss, I mean, does every job have to be this brutal?"
Three laptops were placed in front of him, and a cell phone was on the table, where he was still on the phone with members of the press department at Kassel College across the ocean.
When Lin Chen came out of Nibelungen, he immediately contacted Fingel and asked him to eliminate the negative news.
Fingel was quite excited when he heard this, which was exactly where he excelled.
But he was completely dumbfounded after he learned what he was supposed to do.
If the last time Chu Zihang was cleared up, it was a difficult mode, then this time it is definitely the hell of hell.
Fingel immediately said, "Boss, do you know how I feel right now? I'm a player, I can fight monsters, and I'm not afraid of any monster, no matter how hard it is, but this time the monster you gave me... has no health bar!"
It's no wonder Fingel is in a difficult position. The disappearance of over a thousand hybrids in North City is an absolutely shocking event in any field.
Fingel's news department is, in essence, a student organization, or more broadly, a non-governmental organization.
These people can manage to stir up some gossip and whitewash public opinion, but with things escalating to this point, Fingel is somewhat at a loss.
Lin Chen smiled helplessly: "Fingal, you can do it. I believe in you."
“I…” Fingel was on the verge of tears. “It’s really too difficult! They’re all foreigners in North City. Let alone a thousand people disappearing, even just one person could face diplomatic charges!”
Lin Chen shrugged: "That's not something you need to worry about. The secret of the dragon race is something that all hybrids tacitly keep hidden. The Chinese branch of the academy's executive department will also get involved in this matter soon. You just need to manage the online public opinion!"
"I'll do my best!" Fingel said bitterly, taking a big bite of the chicken leg.
Xia Mi ran over and looked at Fingel's computer screen: "How is it now? Does everyone know?"
“Pretty much,” Fingel said. “The news on the Hunter website last night was too explosive. A lot of people know about it. The subway has resumed operation, but those people haven’t come out yet. That speaks volumes. They said a thousand people were missing, but who doesn’t know that disappearing in the Dragon King’s Nibelungen means they’re dead!”
Lu Mingfei gasped for breath at the last moment. He had woken up from the hypnotic state and forgotten what Lin Chen had said in the car.
He only remembered that he was too tired and fell asleep as soon as he got on the bus, only waking up when he got off.
Looking at the overwhelming workload in front of Fingel, he tensed up for a moment: "So how do we write the mission report now? Have we completed the mission?"
"I notified the college immediately," Lin Chen said. "If nothing unexpected happens, the board of directors is in turmoil right now!"
239: Frost is furious! The situation is shrouded in mystery!
Four hours after the official opening of the North City Metro!
Itali.
The Gattuso family headquarters.
Frost sat at the table, his eyebrows furrowed like a twisted rope, his expression somewhat ferocious.
Opposite him was the family's newly appointed secretary. Since Percy's disappearance, the family still needed to function, so a new secretary was selected.
At that moment, the secretary was reading out an event from the northern part of China, which made Frost's heart pound with fear.
"So...did all one thousand people die?"
The secretary looked at the documents in her hand: "Judging from the current situation in Beicheng, the subway station is operating as usual, but those more than a thousand people have not reappeared. For now, we can only classify them as missing!"
Frost clenched his fists. He didn't care about the thousand men, but among them were his elite troops.
Three thousand mixed-race people arrived in the North City, but most of them were self-aware and those with weak bloodlines and poor strength did not get involved in this mess.
Those thousand people were the elite among them, confident in their strength, which is why they rashly ventured deep into the subway station.
This is a major event concerning the Dragon King; how could Frost possibly send only Caesar's small team?
Many of his elite troops were dispatched, but they have now disappeared without a trace.
The secretary continued, "However, judging from the situation, due to the normal operation of the North City subway, the Dragon King's Nibelungen should have been opened late at night. Now the North City subway is operating as usual, with a daily operating time of more than 18 hours. Those people who have been missing in Nibelungen for 18 hours are practically dead!"
Frost pressed his forehead to his chest, trying to remain calm: "How many people in the family have perished in total!"
"Seventeen people." The secretary took a deep breath and slowly uttered the number.
"Seventeen people? That's the total number sent to China!" Frost suddenly looked up. "Caesar is missing too?"
“No, Caesar was stopped before he entered the subway station,” the secretary said. “I’m including Secretary Percy, who went missing earlier!”
Frost felt his eyelids twitching grotesquely!
Although Percy had been missing for some time, the family firmly believed that he was simply missing, after all, he was the family's war machine.
But now that the topic of disappearance being equivalent to death has come up, the new secretary has taken it upon himself to include Percy in the discussion.
Frost lost control of his emotions; he gripped his pen and slammed it into the table in front of him.
The pen easily pierced through the solid wood tabletop, and the entire table wobbled precariously from the vibration.
The secretary instinctively lowered his head; he couldn't bear to face Frost like this.
After a long silence, Frost slowly raised his head. Ignoring the pen on the table, he continued, "And the Dragon King? Was he destroyed?"
The secretary hesitated for a moment: "No, according to the report from the Executive Department of Kassel College, their specialists entered Nibelungen, and after a difficult defeat of the Dragon Servants, they returned without encountering the King of Earth and Mountains."
"Their commissioner is out!" Frost's facial muscles twitched. "On what grounds!"
The secretary was taken aback, thinking to herself, "It's based on ability, or is it based on luck?"
But Frost stared intently at the secretary: "Who is it? Which specialist from the executive department?"
"According to the report, it's Lin Chen and Xia Mi's group, and then Chu Zihang and Lu Mingfei's group!"
"Bang!" Frost slammed his fist on the table again, and the table was almost falling apart under his blow, the wooden structure teetering on the verge of collapse.
"They actually came out!" Frost was somewhat unable to accept this outcome. "Why?!"
The Gattuso family has many elites, and the ones he dispatched were the family's best.
However, apart from Caesar, the entire army was wiped out, while Lin Chen and his bunch of useless people were able to easily escape and even kill the Dragon Servant.
Frost was so angry he was about to explode!
The secretary dared not speak.
"Lin Chen! It's Lin Chen again! What abilities does he have that allowed him to escape!" Frost became somewhat out of control when mentioning Lin Chen. "Why didn't they kill him during the last investigation!"
It took Frost a while to recover. He let out a long sigh and then sat down in his chair.
The secretary looked at Frost cautiously: "Master, have we strayed from the point? I think this is a conspiracy."
"How to say?"
"That message on the Hunter's website," the secretary said, "is clearly a sting operation. He's trying to lure everyone to the Dragon King. How could anyone be so kind as to do that!"
“Of course I understand,” Frost said. “I’ve already sent people to investigate, but so far, there’s been no progress!”
The secretary was speechless: "What should we do now? Our family has lost so many people, should we..."
"What do you want? Are you planning to ask the Chinese for people?" Frost stared intently into the secretary's eyes.
The secretary quickly lowered her head: "I'm sorry."
Frost shook his head: "We're all hybrids, so let's solve this using hybrid methods. Before we become the new dragon race, the secrets of the dragon race cannot be revealed!"
"Then now..."
"Prepare for the board meeting, and then... get Angers for me!"
……
At this moment.
Beautiful Country, Chicago.
Kassel College, Principal's Office.
Angers was sitting at the table drinking tea, with the Night Watchman and the Executive Director, von Schneider, in front of him.
The Night's Watchman was holding a bottle of whiskey and looked quite tipsy.
"Have you had enough to drink?" Angers asked.
