Transmigrating into a dragon clan experimental subject, is that even possible?

Caesar chuckled softly, a hint of amusement in his eyes. "Even if we know it's a conspiracy, it doesn't matter. As long as we're strong enough, we can crush all our enemies."

Tian walked at the back of the group, his gaze never leaving the darkness ahead.

He clearly felt that the lingering oppressive feeling still enveloped them; the threat of the dragons had never gone away. The Hermes family was merely a pawn on the chessboard; the true mastermind remained hidden in the unfathomable darkness.

“Next, we must be prepared.” Tian’s voice was deep and calm, his eyes flashing with a cold light. “The Dragon Clan will not stop, and we cannot let our guard down.”

The four figures disappeared at the end of the college corridor. Night still shrouded Kassel College, and the shadow of war had not yet dissipated...

The following morning, an emergency meeting was held at Kassel College.

The academy's top officials and representatives from various families gathered to discuss the latest intelligence regarding the dragon race's resurgence. Tian, ​​Chu Zihang, Lu Mingfei, and Caesar were also summoned to the meeting; as direct participants in sealing the Dragon's Tears, their reports were crucial.

"The Dragon's Tears incident made us realize that the power of the dragons has far exceeded our expectations," the academy headmaster said, his tone tinged with worry. "And the actions of the Hermes family indicate that they are seeking even stronger support."

“We must find their hiding place as soon as possible,” a professor said, frowning. “Otherwise, they will continue to disrupt our operations.”

“According to Norma’s analysis, there is an even more powerful dragon force controlling the Hermes family,” Tian said calmly, his gaze serene. “We must thoroughly investigate the movements of this force.”

"This mission requires close cooperation between the team and other departments of the academy." The academy dean nodded. "The resurgence of the dragons cannot be fought by any single force. We need to unite all available resources."

The atmosphere in the conference room grew increasingly tense, with everyone's eyes focused on the prospects of the war. The threat of the dragons had never been so real to them.

The atmosphere in the meeting room was tense, and everyone was on edge.

Although the Dragon's Tears incident has temporarily ended, the crisis of the dragon race's resurgence still looms over everyone's hearts. The academy's high-ranking leaders and family representatives are intensely discussing their next course of action, while Tian, ​​Chu Zihang, Lu Mingfei, and Caesar sit at one side of the conference table. As direct participants in this battle, they are undoubtedly the focus of attention.

“We can’t wait any longer.” An elderly professor slammed his hand on the table, his tone resolute. “The Hermes family is clearly brewing an even bigger conspiracy. If we don’t seize this opportunity to destroy their power in one fell swoop, we may never have another chance.”

“Professor, this problem is far more complex than we imagined,” Tian replied calmly, his golden eyes flashing slightly. “The power of the Hermes family is merely a facade; the real issue lies with the dragon forces behind them. As long as they are manipulating things from the shadows, any apparent attacks may be futile.”

The academy headmaster took a deep breath, his gaze steady. "Tian is right. We not only have to face the betrayal of the Hermes family, but also be wary of the forces hidden behind them. This battle is far more difficult than we imagined."

"If we don't fundamentally destroy the core strength of the dragon race, they will keep coming back," Chu Zihang added in a low voice, his gaze cold. The knife in his hand lightly touched the table, making a faint sound, as if reminding everyone of the cruelty of this battle.

Caesar snorted, crossed his arms, and leaned back in his chair. "Do we have enough intelligence? I don't believe we can launch a full-scale operation based on mere speculation."

“Norma is working hard to analyze the Hermes family’s runes and behavior patterns,” a professor in charge of technology said. “However, their encryption layer is very complex, and the analysis will take time.”

The academy dean nodded. "Time is exactly what we lack most." He turned to Tian and the others. "Your combat abilities are beyond question, but this battle is not just a contest of strength, but also a game of wits and endurance. We cannot act rashly; we must strike precisely to avoid alerting the enemy."

“Intelligence indicates that the core members of the Hermes family have retreated to a hidden stronghold.” Another professor unfolded a map, marked with several key points. “This stronghold is very close to the dragon ruins, and they may be conducting a new ritual in an attempt to further activate the power of the dragons.”

Tian stared at the map, his gaze slightly grave. "If they continue the ritual, the resurgence of the dragon race will be inevitable."

“We must go to that stronghold immediately,” Chu Zihang said coldly, his gaze sharp as a knife. “We cannot allow them to have another chance to revive more dragon power.”

The academy head frowned slightly. "This operation is extremely dangerous. We cannot be certain whether the Hermes family has set a trap. If we act rashly, we may put more warriors in danger."

“Chu Zihang and I can conduct reconnaissance first,” Tian suggested, a glint of light flashing in his golden eyes. “We can use our Word of Power to detect the enemy’s movements and make a decision after we have a clear understanding of the situation.”

Caesar chuckled softly, a hint of disdain in his voice. "Reconnaissance? That's a good idea, but why not just take action directly? If your intelligence is wrong, wouldn't we be wasting our time?"

“We can’t afford to waste time,” Chu Zihang retorted coldly. “But if we act hastily, we might lose even more.”

“Two people conducting reconnaissance is a good plan.” After a moment’s thought, the dean nodded in agreement. “Tian and Chu Zihang, you two go to the base first and gather intelligence as soon as possible. The rest of you stand by and be ready to provide support at any time.”

Caesar shrugged, seemingly indifferent. "Alright, I'll be on standby. I just hope it doesn't waste too much time."

Lu Mingfei remained silent for a long time, then couldn't help but mutter under his breath, "Reconnaissance is a good thing, but what if there's an ambush?"

"Nothing will happen." Tian turned to look at him, his tone calm but firm. "We'll handle it."

After the meeting, Tian and Chu Zihang quickly made some simple preparations.

They knew the danger of this mission, and they knew the Hermes family wouldn't let them off easily. But time was of the essence; they had to quickly ascertain the enemy's movements to prevent the dragons' power from resurfacing.

A few hours later, Tian and Chu Zihang had silently infiltrated the outskirts of the enemy's stronghold.

Night enveloped the entire area, and all around was deathly silent, as if even the sound of the wind had been suppressed.

“It’s very quiet,” Chu Zihang said in a low voice, his eyes scanning the surroundings warily. “This doesn’t seem like the Hermes family style. It’s too quiet, which makes me feel uneasy.”

Tian stood beside him, his golden eyes flickering slightly as he sensed the energy fluctuations around him. "The runic energy in this area is extremely unstable. They may be performing some kind of special ritual."

"Do we need to break in?" Chu Zihang asked softly, the knife in his hand already slightly unsheathed, emitting a faint clanging sound.

"There's no rush." ​​Tian's gaze was calm. "Let's continue to observe and find the enemy's key figures before taking action."

They advanced slowly and cautiously, each step barely making a sound as they trod on the grass. As they drew closer to the center of the stronghold, the stench of decay in the air grew stronger, and the runic marks around them began to shimmer with a faint purple light.

"The energy of the runes is fluctuating; it seems the ritual hasn't fully begun yet," Tian analyzed in a low voice, his gaze sharp.

Just then, a faint sound of footsteps came from afar. The two instantly hid in the shadows and held their breath.

Several black-robed warriors walked past them not far away, holding rune-inscribed spears in their hands, their eyes cold, as if they were surveying the surrounding defenses.

“The elite of the Hermes family.” Chu Zihang stared at them coldly. “It seems the enemy is already prepared.”

“That’s not all.” Tian’s gaze turned slightly serious. “The energy fluctuations of these rune warriors are not quite right. They seem to be controlled by some external force, possibly related to the power of the Dragon’s Tear.”

“They’ve been enhanced by the power of the dragons,” Chu Zihang said slowly, gripping his knife tightly. “If these guys join the battle, our situation will become very bad.”

“Don’t rush into action.” Tian calmly analyzed, his golden eyes flashing slightly. “Let them act first, while we continue our infiltration and find the core figures of the Hermes family.”

They proceeded cautiously once more, dodging several waves of patrolling rune warriors, and finally arrived at an abandoned ancient building.

In the center of the building, a purple beam of light shot straight into the sky, and the air was filled with intense fluctuations of runic energy, clearly indicating that this was the center of the ritual.

“It seems they are already preparing some kind of resurrection ritual,” Tian said coldly, his gaze fixed on the purple pillar of light. “We cannot let the ritual complete.”
