Chapter 394: Chapter 391 : Trap??
Dark clouds rolled in, thunder rumbled.
The fierce wind carried the heavy rain, and a low, oppressive air blanketed the city.
Lu Mingfei stood alone on the observation deck of the hotel's luxurious top-floor suite, as if standing on the edge of the clouds, looking down on the city veiled in mist.
It's worth mentioning that the hotel Frost arranged for them was only about a kilometer away from the Pantheon.
If the weather were clear, he could easily see the Pantheon and its surroundings from here.
"Ever since we entered this room, you've been acting suspicious. Why's that?" At that moment, Chu Zihang walked over and asked.
"Senior Brother, have you ever heard this saying?" Lu Mingfei continued staring at the city, his gaze seeming to pierce through the thick fog, landing on the ancient Pantheon: "The mountain storm is coming, the wind fills the building."
The calm before the storm, huh?
Chu Zihang looked at the torrential rain outside, feeling the cold rain hitting his skin. His brows furrowed slightly. "Are you suspecting Director Frost?"
"Hah, I thought you were going to say 'Caesar,'" Lu Mingfei turned his head and couldn't help teasing.
Chu Zihang leaned against the glass, looking at Lu Mingfei with his ever-glowing golden eyes, still bright and intense even in the rain.
He spoke seriously: "Because from the start, I never trusted Frost's words. I know Caesar well. He wouldn't do something like that without a reason."
"I get it. You're rivals, right? If this were a manga, you'd definitely be a hot couple," Lu Mingfei said seriously.
"It's not that complicated. I just think Caesar's actions must have a deeper reason behind them," Chu Zihang stared at him and said.
"Both the principal and Director Frost's attitude toward Caesar is strange. What do you think?"
"What about you?" Chu Zihang looked at him and said, "You used to be very lonely, stuck in your own world. What happened for you to change into who you are now?"
Lu Mingfei smiled but didn't answer the question.
But just as Chu Zihang was about to say something else, the lights in the living room suddenly flickered, flashing on and off, accompanied by the harsh sound of an electrical short circuit.
Zzzz…
Bang!
Suddenly, the light bulb exploded with sparks, and the entire room was engulfed in darkness.
"Someone's coming!"
Lu Mingfei's tone was calm, as if he had expected this to happen.
"Frost's people?" Chu Zihang's eyes glinted with ferocity, his voice low and hoarse.
The muscles hidden beneath his dragon scales rippled with every breath, radiating explosive power. His cold, violent golden eyes signaled that in the next second, he could transform into the most terrifying killing machine!
"No, it's not that simple." Lu Mingfei furrowed his brows, but his gaze shifted to the other side.
Just now, the 'connection' he had with the little devil seemed to be severed by some force, preventing him from sensing Lu Mingze's presence.
This was the first time he had encountered such a situation. In the past, no matter what happened, that little devil, Lu Mingze, was like an unshakeable gum stuck to him, always around. But now, unable to sense him, all he felt was endless loneliness and sorrow.
"What's wrong?"
Chu Zihang noticed something was off and asked.
"No, it's nothing."
Lu Mingfei took a deep breath, forcing all his scattered thoughts back down.
Now wasn't the time to think about that. He walked from the viewing platform into the living room, pressing a mechanism on a black box and pulling out the fierce, violent chainsaw sword, his eyes filled with a chilling murderous intent.
"Let's meet up with Nono and Xia Mi first. We'll handle the rest later!"
"Alright!"
Chu Zihang, always action-oriented, strapped the Seven Deadly Sins on his back, and carried Muramasa at his waist.
The Seven Deadly Sins forged by Norton was incredibly brutal, meant to completely kill the Dragon King.
So once drawn, it had to drink the dragon's blood. In some ways, it was less convenient than Muramasa.
Besides, not every situation required the use of the Seven Deadly Sins, so he kept Muramasa by his side.
The two of them reached the entrance.
Having experienced countless life-or-death situations, Lu Mingfei's instincts had been honed beyond ordinary people's. His pupils suddenly constricted, sharp like a hawk's, the murderous intent spreading around him.
Before Chu Zihang could react, Lu Mingfei pulled him forcefully aside and used the momentum to roll, diving into the shoe hallway next to the entrance.
Boom!
A violent impact shattered the door.
A dark, menacing shadow, like a beast, rushed into the hallway. Its vicious golden eyes scanned the darkness, searching for prey.
"It's Death Servitor!"
Having crossed paths with him several times, Lu Mingfei immediately recognized the terrifying shadow. Without hesitation, he pulled the trigger.
Buzz, buzz, buzz.
The vibrating chainsaw sword roared to life.
Death Servitor's golden eyes scanned the hallway, locking onto the source of the noise. Just as he was about to pounce, Lu Mingfei darted out.
In the moment they collided, his long, sharply defined hand clenched into a fist, and like a cannonball, it slammed into Death Servitor's face.
Crack!
Death Servitor's grotesque, exoskeleton-covered face caved in from the punch.
Blood erupted from the shattered dragon scales, and during the brief moment when Death Servitor was pushed back, Lu Mingfei's right hand, gripping the chainsaw sword, swung with a deadly strike.
Despite the dragon scales' strength, comparable to steel, they were as fragile as paper before the spinning teeth of the chainsaw.
With a horrible scream from Death Servitor, the chainsaw sword sliced through muscle and bone, cutting him clean in half. Thick, crimson blood sprayed like a fountain!
Chu Zihang stood frozen, staring at Lu Mingfei, drenched in blood and pieces of flesh, stunned by the brutal sight.
Though he had heard from Xia Mi and Nono about Lu Mingfei's almost "savage" killing behavior, only now did he fully grasp how savage it truly was.
After dispatching one Death Servitor, Lu Mingfei turned his attention to the hotel hallway, his tone suddenly heavy: "Senior, there's no time to daze around now."
Snapping out of his daze, Chu Zihang looked toward the hallway, his pupils narrowing.
In the dark, eerie hotel corridor, the sight of numerous terrifying Death Servitors filled the space. Their golden eyes glared menacingly in the darkness, a chilling sight.
"Heh, quite the big gift, huh?"
Lu Mingfei sneered. He had already guessed who was behind this.
Who else but the Dragon King could mobilize so many Death Servitors to silently surround the hotel?
"This isn't right. With all this noise, Nono and Xia Mi should've reacted!" Chu Zihang furrowed his brow, glancing at the room across the hall, a sense of dread creeping into his mind.
Lu Mingfei's gaze darkened. His hand gripping the chainsaw sword tensed, veins popping on his back.
Normally, with such a disturbance in the hotel, even if Nono and Xia Mi were asleep, they couldn't have remained completely still without any reaction.
The answer was clear—something had happened to Nono and Xia Mi!
In an instant, the temperature in the hotel hallway seemed to drop dramatically, and a chilling, murderous aura spread like a tsunami.
The Death Servitors crowded in the hallway suddenly let out uneasy growls. In their brutal golden eyes, there was a flicker of fear, as if they were terrified of that man.
Boom!
The chainsaw sword, which had stopped, roared to life again with a deafening noise.
Lu Mingfei, like an angel declaring death, stepped over the broken bodies of the Death Servitors in the entrance, slowly walking towards the group. The roaring chainsaw sword slashed across the wall, leaving behind a grotesque crack.
His deep brown eyes were filled with an overwhelming murderous intent. The handsome young boy's lips curled into a cold, cruel smile: "In the name of the emperor, I hereby declare your death sentence for being abominations!"
In that moment, the Death Servitors seemed to sense the soul-shattering killing intent.
It was like the tyrant who ruled the world millennia ago, with wings covered in broken corpses, bringing death to the entire world.
That incomparable fear awakened the deep-seated terror etched into their souls. They screamed and retreated, desperately trying to escape.
But... it was too late!
