Chapter 230 Beowulf's Power

All the board members learned the true situation at Kassel College right now, and even then, only from a video.

Just as they had expected, the email Angers sent them only mentioned the funds needed to rebuild the Kassel College, without actually mentioning the whole process of the destruction.

Therefore, their preconceived notion was that Angers intended not to disclose, or rather not to disclose in detail, the true experience of the destruction, perhaps only mentioning it briefly at the meeting.

But now, seeing this image, they know that Angers had no intention of hiding anything, but rather intended to confront them directly.

Although the school board members did not know what had really happened, they roughly understood that the disaster was related to a freshman named Lin Ye. However, Lin Ye did not receive any trial or punishment; instead, he was treated like a guest by Angers.

The other party has now become a freshman at Kassel College. Despite the terrible destruction they had previously inflicted on the college, Angers has changed everything in an extremely magnanimous way.

This behavior undoubtedly angered the school board members, who felt that Angers had gone mad. How could such a thing be resolved simply by forgiveness?

True forgiveness must be a trial by fire and iron, requiring the other party to experience hellish pain; only then can it be called a trial.

Moreover, it was the trial that destroyed what was supposed to be Kassel College. Lin Ye's sins had created an unprecedented hatred with everyone at Kassel College, including these board members, and could not be washed away by any forgiveness.

Therefore, when these school board members came again, they were all angry, because they already knew Angers' attitude. It was obvious that he wanted to protect the new student named Lin Ye, and they also knew that Angers had always been very extreme in his views on dragon slaying.

But I didn't expect the other party to handle it in such an extreme way this time. How could someone who destroyed Kassel College still be a student at the college?

This is nothing short of a bombshell, no, it's practically an atomic bomb, ready to explode at any moment. Because of the opponent's instability, if it were to explode completely, the entire Kassel College would cease to exist.

Moreover, to be precise, this atomic bomb was essentially already detonated once. Just a short time ago, and just as they saw in the footage, Lin Ye's outburst destroyed the entire academy in a mere ten minutes.

They were so immersed in that destruction that they couldn't pull themselves out of it for a long time.

If Lin Ye weren't at Kassel College, but rather in the families of these board members, would their family backgrounds, or even the real iceberg behind the tip of the iceberg, be able to stop this boy's explosive potential...?

To be honest, at that moment they had no confidence, because they had seen many terrible things through that video.

The terrifying power that Lin Ye unleashed was like a natural disaster. They also saw that the boy's outburst seemed somewhat relaxed, without the state of abandoning everything or even struggling to survive.

That's why everyone looked at Lin Ye, who was suspended high in the sky, as if he were a god or a demon.

In short, any powerful word can be used to describe this boy. Of course, they are all experts in their respective fields, and they know much more than ordinary people. Therefore, they also know that the so-called gods or demons cannot exist in such an unknown way.

The so-called gods or demons can be replaced with another term: the Dragon King. This is a world of dragons, although it seems to be under human control.

However, dragons were once the rulers of this world. But for some reason, they all fell into a deep sleep. It was during this slumber that humans were able to live in peace and prosperity.

However, if these dragons were to awaken from their slumber, especially upon seeing that the world had been taken over by humans, then those pure-blooded dragons would undoubtedly be enraged and want to destroy the world immediately.

They are an extremely ferocious race, with a deep-seated desire for conquest. However, what they have been longing for has already been obtained by humans, so naturally they will not let the human race go.

The fear of being dominated by pure-blooded dragons may very well be felt by humanity once again. It would be an unimaginable despair, and who would be able to escape it then?

Even powerful hybrids struggle to protect themselves, so hybrid factions are extremely secretive about pure-blooded dragons, especially those at the Dragon King level.

In their eyes, it was a weapon even more bizarre, terrifying, and despair-inducing than the atomic bomb. Its arrival would be tantamount to a catastrophe.

So how is Lin Ye's performance any different from that of the Dragon King? And only the Dragon King can achieve that kind of overwhelming power, where everything can be reduced to ashes with a wave of his hand.

So at this moment, they really needed to ask Angers. They had made up their minds before they came that Angers had to give them a reason no matter what.

Or perhaps they were determined to overturn Angers' previous actions no matter what; that boy, Lin Ye, absolutely could not stay at Kassel College, and he absolutely had to face trial.

Otherwise, if the other side could destroy Kassel College the first time, they could also destroy it a second and third time, and even destroy all of them.

Now that the entire image has been turned off, the hotel's conference room has become incredibly dark again, but within the darkness, an extremely ferocious golden eye shines forth.

That was directly in front of Angers, where Beowulf was sitting. At that moment, Beowulf had activated his strongest bloodline and was looking at Angers.

To be precise, it was a standoff with Angers. This was the most assertive attitude a hybrid could muster. At this moment, Beowulf showed no mercy and launched an attack directly against Angers, determined to demonstrate his stance.

Just as Beowulf unleashed his golden eyes, signifying the activation of his bloodline's power to target Angers, the old man spoke coldly:

“Angers, I know you made that Lin Ye a freshman at Kassel College, and now you’ve shown us how he destroyed the college. I need an explanation, a very reasonable explanation.”

Everyone present felt a chill run down their spines, because they all knew that this so-called reasonable explanation was more like a declaration of war.

It seemed that every word Angers said next would cause Beowulf to take immediate action if it displeased him.

A terrible battle is about to unfold in this dimly lit hotel conference room.

In an instant, lightning flashed and thunder roared, and a grim white bolt of lightning shot in, creating an extremely somber atmosphere.

Chapter 231 Angers, are you already old and senile?

A chilling and menacing atmosphere filled every corner of the dimly lit conference room. The tension was palpable, as if Beowulf, the patriarch of a legendary dragon-slaying family, would unleash a lion-like rage at any moment.

Even some school board members began to step back slightly, at least leaning their upper bodies back.

No one is allowed to have their bodyguards with them when attending this board meeting. The reason why Percy, a young man, is guarding Frost is because Frost has difficulty moving around. It wouldn't be appropriate to let the broken-legged patriarch climb up directly, so Percy's appearance is an exception.

Even in this tense situation, the young man remained standing calmly behind Frost. When Frost sensed the terrifying aura emanating from Beowulf and had to step back slightly, he immediately felt Percy's hand on Frost's back.

Frost realized he had lost his composure, so he straightened his body slightly.

At this moment, everyone in the audience looked at Angers, but they quickly frowned. Angers was facing Beowulf's confrontation, and even though this ruthless old patriarch had unleashed his dragon bloodline, Angers seemed to remain immersed in his own world under this pressure.

The other person was humming a strange tune, tapping his fingers lightly on the table as if to keep up with some kind of rhythm. If Angers were to shake his head and sway his body at that moment, he would really look like an old man listening to Peking Opera. If he were to hold a fan in his hand and start waving it, his image and temperament would be off the charts.

The corners of everyone's mouths twitched involuntarily.

They were well aware of Angers' arrogance; even Frost, the acting patriarch of the Gattuso family, whose wealth was considerable, was not taken seriously by Angers.

But the man before them was Beowulf, the new patriarch of the once legendary dragon-slaying family. Although the Beowulf family was not as powerful as before, even a fallen camel is bigger than a horse, and this family still possessed unimaginable power.

If the Gattuso family possesses wealth, which enables them to create various technological weapons to subdue dragons, then the Beowulf family utilizes their own bloodline strength. Moreover, this family has not developed any alchemical weapons; their weapons are often their own bodies.

The Beowulf family, too, was born for war; they were members of the Secret Society, the dragon slayers of the Iron Faction. The last captain of the Secret Society's action team was a modern-day Beowulf, who was also bestowed the title of "Dragonblood Eater" by the Secret Society. They even vehemently opposed the Secret Society's establishment of the Kassel College.

This generation of Beowulf is considered to be from the same era as Angers, and is over 130 years old. If you look closely, a blood-red light surges in Beowulf's crimson-gold pupils; those are the blood-red golden eyes passed down through generations, and are also the symbol of the Beowulf family.

In Norse mythology, there is a long poem of three thousand lines, which Beowulf wrote based on this family. The hero-king Beowulf once broke off one of the arms of the man-eating monster Golem with amazing strength, and then used a very mysterious giant sword to cut off the head of Golem's mother. His last achievement was slaying a dragon.

Although Beowulf was also pierced in the neck by the dragon's teeth and died from the deadly venom, killing a dragon single-handedly was still a truly remarkable feat.

Because the dragon Beowulf faced could not possibly be a simple third-generation species, it was very likely a second-generation species, or even a newly awakened first-generation species. In short, if the great battle recorded in that long poem was truly a pure-blooded dragon below the third generation, it would be impossible for it to create such power. Therefore, many hybrid scholars have carefully studied that long poem and deduced that the mad dragon that King Beowulf killed a long time ago was at least a second-generation species.

This undoubtedly proves the family's terrifying strength, because every Beowulf has the blood of that Hero King flowing through their veins. Now, the Beowulf family has become an ancient dragon-slaying family. Every Beowulf has achieved feats that are unimaginable to ordinary people. Their opponents are either powerful Deadpools who have lost their humanity or powerful pure-blooded dragons. There are definitely more than one pure-blooded dragon that has died at the hands of the Beowulf family.

For thousands of years, Beowulf's family has upheld the will of judgment, and they are also the bravest, and even the most ruthless, dragon slayers.

Moreover, the ancient Beowulf family has always upheld an ancient family tradition: every boy born into the Beowulf family is forcibly fed a drop of dragon blood crystal at birth, which contains a highly poisonous substance. Only if a boy can pass the test of this poison corroding his body will he be recognized by the Beowulf family.

Because Beowulf was just as cruel to his offspring as he was to dragons, that's how he forged warriors with iron wills.

Because they consume dragon blood crystals from a young age, the dragon blood in the Beowulf clan is of very high purity. Some descendants will directly exhibit dragon-like features, the most prominent of which is the presence of dragon scales on their bodies. Even the current clan leader, Beowulf, has dragon scales on his body, which are a deep white color and appear extremely fine, but under the light they resemble white rocks.

Although the Beowulf clan members have a high degree of dragonification purity, it is rare to hear of any members of this clan becoming out-of-control Dead Servants. Even in the few cases that do occur, the Beowulf clan handles them personally. Therefore, in legends, every generation of the Beowulf clan produces heroes, and they would never betray humanity.

Because these Beowulf people had consumed dragon blood, they were extremely craving dragon blood. Dragon blood held a fatal attraction for them, and the men of the Beowulf clan would often travel to the ends of the earth to hunt down dragons, just to dig out the hearts of pure-blooded dragons and soak them in wine for a good drink.

The Beowulf family could satisfy their desires by drinking a potent liquor infused with dragon's blood. As for how potent that dragon-blood-infused liquor was, no one knew. But from the pained expressions on the faces of the Beowulf men every time they drank it, one could tell how terrifying the impact of this liquor was. Yet they all endured it, because warriors who could withstand this dragon-blood liquor often became exceptionally powerful. When they fought dragons, the ferocious scenes made them look as if they were possessed by demons.

boom!

Beowulf, sitting at the end of the long table, slammed his hand on the table, instantly shattering the expensive marble table into pieces.

“Angers, have you grown old and senile? You didn’t even hear what I said.”

Beowulf looked coldly at Angers ahead, his words carrying a hint of murderous intent.

Chapter 232 Why not?

murderous look!

All the board members present could clearly feel the murderous aura emanating from Beowulf.

This is an extremely serious sign.

Beowulf, once an activist in the Secret Service and even dubbed the Dragonblood, naturally possessed his own arrogance. He once held the Kassel College established by Angers in utter contempt because he felt that its training methods were too lenient. True warriors, of course, should always be treading on iron and fire, which differed from Angers's ideals.

Of course, the Beowulf clan wasn't just all talk; all their actions were genuine and committed to action. The most obvious example was that they made their clansmen consume dragon blood crystals from a young age. This method was naturally intended to make their offspring stronger, but some children would fail, and those who failed often met with tragic ends. This was the iron will of the Beowulf clan; they had ingrained this iron will into their very bones and even their souls. Naturally, they looked down on Angers' academic style, which is why the Beowulf clan had never respected Angers from the very beginning.

It is important to know that in the most arduous environment of the Dragon-Slaying Era, Beowulf led the Secret Society's action team across wastelands and deserts, ultimately storming the lair of pure-blooded dragons. Every order he issued was as heavy and cold-blooded as steel, and no one could disobey it.

Moreover, no member would disobey, because the Secret Society's action team represents the highest level. Every member is ruthless and decisive. As the leader of the action team, someone like Beowulf can naturally lead the entire team. Therefore, when they hunt dragons and Deadpools all over the world, they are often very efficient, and of course, very cold-blooded.

Because once team members encounter danger, they never come to the rescue. Often, the dead companions are buried with the dragons they killed, and at most, a tune is played at the grave as a form of mourning.

This idea is in great conflict with Angers' academic philosophy, because although Angers seems to be implementing military-style training for the teachers and students of Kassel College, he has essentially turned Kassel College into a big family. Because of the Blood Sorrow, the mixed-race people who have flowed into Kassel College from all over the world are particularly united.

They would treat each other like family and care for one another. If danger came, teachers and students would do anything to save each other. The most obvious example of this is Schneider.

This mentor barely escaped with his life from the deep sea, but he didn't feel fortunate at all. He only felt grief because all his students had died in the deep sea, and those students were his family. So Schneider had lived with great anger all these years. He was like an oil field, and an oil field that had been ignited. He was overdrawing his life force every day, just to become stronger so that one day he could kill all the pure-blooded dragons and comfort the spirits of his students in heaven.

Similarly, if it weren't Schneider who did all this, but any of the teachers and students of Kassel College, they would all protect each other and completely entrust their backs to one another.

However, the Secret Party's action team has the opposite philosophy. They believe that the weak are a burden, and that following the weak will only hinder their actions and may even lead to failure. Therefore, they often look down on the weak and believe that if their so-called partners are injured or weakened, it will make their actions very difficult. So, they often don't care about the life or death of those who fail.

Of course, they also feel anger, but they won't stop to take care of their injured companions. Instead, they will angrily attack the pure-blooded dragons again. This is extremely cold-blooded and makes one feel no emotional warmth whatsoever.

How does this differ from the pure-blooded dragon race? As hybrids, they possess both dragon and human aspects. It is precisely because of their human aspect that their emotions are so intense, which is the key difference between them and dragons.

If even this aspect of humanity has been extinguished, then what difference is there between them and true pure-blooded dragons?

Of course, the Beowulf family's concept is a thing of the past in today's world of hybrids. That's why Angers' academy philosophy was supported by the Secret Party, to the point that Beowulf, in his anger, simply announced that he would no longer manage it.

So over the years, Beowulf usually wouldn't show up unless something too outrageous happened, but this time was different. Beowulf not only showed up, but also genuinely revealed his murderous intent towards Angers for the first time.

This means that Beowulf's anger has reached its peak, and he even has a reason to kill Angers.

And the reason is quite absolute: Angers is protecting Lin Ye and the person who destroyed Kassel College. Beowulf, of course, doesn't care about the destruction of Kassel College because he never really paid any attention to that college.

From the very beginning, he was dissatisfied with the establishment of this academy. Destroying it was fine, but what truly enraged Beowulf was that this student named Lin Ye dared to provoke the entire Secret Party to his face. This was undoubtedly a slap in the face to all members of the Secret Party. Moreover, the opponent's strength was extremely strange, almost comparable to a true dragon king. Although that power was not lasting, its instantaneous burst was definitely not something that a pure-blooded dragon of the next generation level could easily display.

Angers' current defense appears to be more like an act of defiance against the Secret Party, which is certainly unacceptable to Beowulf. No matter how well the Kassel College is established, Beowulf may not care, but the dignity of the entire Secret Party is absolutely not to be shaken in Beowulf's mind.

Now, when faced with his questioning, Angers seemed rather nonchalant, not treating the matter as a serious issue, which naturally angered Beowulf.

Therefore, Beowulf had no choice but to reveal his murderous intent. If Angers were to confront him directly, or even engage in a major battle here, then he would definitely unleash his killer moves when necessary.

Unlike the previous tense atmosphere, this time the entire hotel conference room became extremely silent, and the aura of death spread like a tidal wave. Everyone stared at the two key figures who were about to engage in battle.

Boom!

However, just as the atmosphere was about to reach its peak and war was imminent, Angers' tapping on the table changed from rapid to slow, until it finally stopped.
