Dragon Clan: They're all insane, and you still want me to slay dragons?

"John Wick."

"John Wick, right? Haven't you heard the saying, 'To steal someone's livelihood is like killing their parents'?"

Just by looking at your stylish and sophisticated outfit, I can tell you're the kind of expert like Ximen Chuixue—someone who's neither short of money nor loves it.

There's no need to be so ruthless and block my path to wealth. Leave some room for maneuver so we can meet again in the future.

“I’m just doing what my employer says,” John Wick said, his face remaining expressionless.

"Don't fight amongst yourselves."

Mai stopped the two men fighting amongst themselves, and with a smile, handed Gao Kui a black gold card: "Keep the card safe, deal with them and get out of here first."

"Mmm~"

Gao Kui took the black gold card, kissed it deeply, and held it above his head with both hands: "You are the most beloved treasure of my life."

"I would be happier if you said that while looking me in the eye," Mai Shude whispered a reminder.

"Are you teaching me how to do something?"

Gao Kui glared at Jiu Demai, stuffed the black gold card into his pocket, and raised his twin pistols again, pointing them at Caesar and the others opposite him: "Let's get back to the main topic."

"Brother Finger, Chu Zihang, do you want to come and stay with my girlfriend?"

"What do we do now?" Caesar covered his forehead speechlessly. Apart from Angers' most capable S-class fighter defecting to the other side, how can we fight this battle?

Chu Zihang remained expressionless, unable to discern whether Gao Kui was truly or falsely defecting. But then again, given Gao Kui's mental state, it didn't really matter whether it was true or false.

He can jump back at any time.

"You're not serious, are you?"

Chen Motong pulled the Longinus from her lower abdomen, and continued to reason with her, holding the knife in one hand: "You don't even know her name or what her purpose is. She's lying to you..."

"Stop talking, I have my own rhythm."

Don't worry, my act of being infatuated with her is just part of my plan. I would never be fooled by a woman in my life.

"I'll come back after I've had my fill of her and made her have two kids for me."

Gao Kui moved closer to Jiu De Mai, looking anything but like he had a plan: "Speaking of which, how are we going to retreat later?"

"Someone will come to meet us."

Mai looked at Caesar and the others in front of her and said, "Before that, we need to deal with them first, and it's best not to cause any deaths."

Infiltrating Kassel to steal classified information is one thing; raiding Kassel to seize classified documents and causing casualties is quite another.

"clear."

Gao Kui nodded, then asked, "So when can we make our move?"

"It would be best to delay this for a while longer," Mai Shude whispered, revealing her action plan.

Caesar and others also preferred to delay for a while longer.

Firstly, they genuinely couldn't figure out whether the Northern Qi prince had truly rebelled, and the matter might take a turn for the worse later.

Secondly, since the explosion in Kassel and the subsequent split-up of personnel, Angers has faded from everyone's sight.

Now that the Northern Qi prince, who is suspected to be of S-rank, has switched sides, he might be able to drag Angers out if things drag on for a while. If a fight does break out then, it will be much easier.

"I actually prefer things to be more straightforward."

Gao Kui, holding two guns, said: "If you stab me, I'll stab you; if you fire a shot, I'll fire a shot. Have you seen Johnnie To's 'The Mission' and 'Exiled'?"

This world is full of surprises. Just like I never expected that I would have a girlfriend who is fair-skinned, beautiful, and wealthy today. Just like the Bible says that the Son of God will return like a thief on a day that no one expects.

A sudden gunfight caught everyone off guard. After the chaos, those still standing were the ones left lying down, and the entire operation was swift and decisive.

“We have fundamentally different aesthetic preferences in this regard. I prefer something more solemn and ceremonial.”

Like duels between masters in Westerns and Gu Long novels, the two sides create a ritualistic atmosphere akin to prayer before the battle, culminating in a fleeting fight that brings the drama to a climax.

Mai Shude speaks of her understanding and pursuit of beauty.

"Too long-winded, this isn't my style. But who is this sugar daddy who's keeping me company?"

"Since you're being kept, don't talk about independence. It's your decision." Gao Kui handed the decision over to Jiu De Mai.

"What do you think?" Mai looked at Caesar.

With Angers absent and Gao Kui defecting, Caesar, who had just won a day of freedom, was undoubtedly the leader of the Kassel side.

"I also prefer things to have a sense of ritual."

Caesar looked at Gao Kui and suggested, "How about we choose a piece of music? When the music ends, we'll start fighting. In the end, we'll choose a piece of music that no one knows when it will end."

“Good idea.” Jiu De Mai also looked at Gao Kui.

Among the many people present who were qualified to speak, each of them had their favorite music stored on their mobile phones or portable music devices, but they all surely remembered the length of each song. That's how good the memory of mixed-race people is.

The only exception was Gao Kui, whose mental state was clearly not quite normal. Everyone felt that Gao Kui might not remember the duration of the music on his phone, so letting Gao Kui choose the songs was the fairest option.

Gao Kui took out his phone, opened a music app, randomly played a song, and then put the phone back in his pocket.

"I've always wanted to confess my feelings to you, my heart is so full of pride..."

The grand and solemn music began, accompanied by extremely heavy background noise. The audio quality was extremely poor, most likely extracted from a video or even recorded using a recording app on a mobile phone.

Chapter 106: Chickens and Dogs

"We sing The East Is Red"

Stand up and take charge

We tell the story of spring.

"Reform and opening up have made us rich..."

Mai Shude drew her katana from her back, her aura shifting from charming to cold, and raised her elbow in a blood-vibrating gesture: "This live performance was absolutely fantastic."

In 05, Alex Man sang "Entering the New Era" with a choir at ATV's anniversary celebration. The entire performance lasted about 8 minutes, with the singing portion being less than 4 minutes.

The song was probably recorded using a recording app on a mobile phone, meaning no one knows when it will end.

"You're trying to scare people by performing a blood shock without even drawing blood?"

Chen Motong muttered a complaint, then mimicked Jiu De Mai by raising her elbow and performing a blood-vibration motion to wipe the blood off Longinus.

The knife had only been pulled from her lower abdomen not long ago.

With the great battle about to begin, Caesar couldn't help but be distracted. He glanced at Chen Motong with concern. First, his heart was blown out, and then he was stabbed. Was he really okay?

Seeing that Chen Motong remained calm and even had the energy to argue with Jiude Mai, and after analyzing Gao Kui's stabbing of Chen Motong earlier, Caesar vaguely deduced that the knife was probably strange and was likely an alchemical weapon with healing abilities.

"I like it, what's your business?"

Mai Shude retorted to Chen Motong, her cold eyes sweeping over the group in Kassel, mainly focusing on Caesar and a few other high-level combatants. She raised her long sword and said, "Kaga Kiyomitsu, with a blade length of two feet three inches, was the sword of Okita Souji, the captain of the first division of the Shinsengumi during the Edo period."

It was broken in history and has now been restored using alchemical techniques.

A description that has a distinctly Gu Long style.

Next, all everyone needs to do is raise their weapons, give a brief introduction with a blank expression, and then say some nonsensical things with strange faces, just like in Gu Long's novels, to push the atmosphere of the final battle to its climax.

"Is it the Qin and Han dynasty ruler, or the Tang and Song dynasty ruler, or feet?" Gao Kui suddenly became serious about something that was completely unnecessary.

During the Qin and Han dynasties, a foot was approximately 23 centimeters, while during the Tang and Song dynasties it was slightly over 30 centimeters. A foot was 33.33 centimeters.

"Tang and Song Dynasty rulers".

Jiu Demai glanced at Gao Kui speechlessly. "My blade is only two feet three inches long. It doesn't look like a Qin or Han ruler at all."

Caesar then raised his hunting knife, continuing the atmosphere of the decisive battle that had been interrupted by Gao Kui: "Dick Tudor, blade length 52 centimeters, modern alchemical weapon."

Chu Zihang glanced at the samurai sword in his hand and said succinctly, "Muramasa."

Bonaparte.

"Longinus."

Longinus?

Caesar and the others glanced discreetly at Chen Motong, who was holding the knife introduced by Longinus. The name of the knife caught their attention. Was it named after the Holy Lance that pierced the body of Jesus Christ in Christian legend?

In terms of effectiveness, it is also one of the most unique types of alchemical weapons.

"Ebony and white ivory, a 1:1 high-fidelity cosplay prop from Devil May Cry 3, based on the alchemical firearm M1911."

Gao Kui twirled the two pistols in his hands, not worried at all about whether they would go off accidentally, and nudged John Wick: "Brother, it's your turn."

A crisp, clanging sound rang out, and the coffin-like sword case on the boy's back opened. John Wick drew a katana from it and said coldly, "Jealousy."

In your terms, it should also be considered an alchemical weapon.

John Wick can wield all seven alchemical weapons of the Seven Deadly Sins with ease, but he prefers to use the magic that Mai Shude calls "word magic."

Of the seven alchemical weapons, Constantine is particularly fond of jealousy.

Seven alchemical weapons?

Everyone couldn't help but glance at John Wick again. There were differences between alchemical weapons, but it was certainly worth paying attention to that one person possessed seven alchemical weapons of different shapes.

"What's going on? Everyone else is using melee weapons, but I'm the only one using dual pistols. It makes me seem like I'm some kind of oddball," Gao Kui muttered.

Actually, not everyone used melee weapons. The group of young Karamis in the back row of the Kassel camp and the school's civic department members who rushed over after hearing the news were all fully armed.

For mixed-race individuals whose bloodlines are not particularly outstanding, firearms are much more practical than melee weapons.

Gao Kui nudged John Wick again: "Brother, you have so many weapons you can't possibly use them all, why don't you lend me one?"

"No loan."

John Wick politely declined without expression. Even if Gao Kui temporarily stood by him, it wouldn't put his mind at ease. Naturally, he wouldn't lend out the Seven Deadly Sins so easily.

"Come back, and I'll return Longinus to you." Chen Motong brandished the long sword in his hand.

"You used my knife as a bargaining chip to invite me?"

"If you don't come back, it's mine!"

Gao Kui remained unmoved and asked Jiu Demai, "Will the organization reimburse me for the personal property losses I suffered due to my defection?"

"Anything else is fine, except for that knife." Mai Shude was truly powerless.
