They've already fought their way through the Holy Grail War, and you still call them dragons?

"Thank you for your patronage and welcome your next visit."

Tsk tsk, Lu Mingfei seemed to sense from these words the meaning of "It's so easy to make money, stupid people with a lot of money, come back quickly." Speaking of which, every time the little devil Lu Mingze appeared in front of him, he was always dressed in expensive clothes and accompanied by a glass of expensive red wine, which showed that this guy was not short of money.

In that case, if he is happy to play the game of cross-dressing rich woman, why should I worry about it?

Lu Mingfei watched indifferently as Ling ran alone to the observation deck under the Chaldea Dome and lit a fairy wand. Brightly colored magic patterns and artistic colorful words gushed out from it, sketching either freehand or gorgeous designs in the air, which would dissipate after a long time. He sniffed carefully and found that there was no smell of gunpowder at all. Shit, could it be a fire element alchemical firework?

I have to say that although unscrupulous businessmen may cheat people out of their money, their technology and quality are still up to par.

Ignoring the seemingly indifferent Ling, Lu Mingfei walked around and stopped to set off his fireworks. He suddenly remembered that when he was still in his hometown, he used to use simpler and plain colored bead tube fireworks to fight with his fat cousin Lu Mingze. Maybe a few kids with snot hanging from their noses from the same neighborhood joined in with great interest. They got so excited that they simply tied several colored bead tubes together and used them as a "machine gun".

The scene was like this, with firecrackers blasting all over the sky, and all kinds of flying fireworks streaking straight through the air, looking like bright tracer missiles under the dark night sky. The scenes from Star Wars emerged from the mischievous perspective of the children... until the aunt ran downstairs cursing and roaring like a lion, which brought the cousins ​​to a sad end.

"Ouch! Who the hell doesn't have eyes? Don't they know you can't set off fireworks towards people?"

Lu Mingfei's hands trembled for a moment before he realized that he had made a mistake. He hurriedly apologized, and found that the person who spoke was actually the "long-lost" Finger!

"Hey, isn't this my good brother Lu Mingfei?" Finger's attitude immediately improved when he saw this guy. After all, he had taken care of his business. He glanced at Lu Mingfei's work badge and showed an envious look.

"Little brother, you've been rising through the ranks! Now you're the head of the medical department. How much money must you be making? Haha, I haven't seen you lately. I guess Brother Lu is living a carefree life lately!"

Lu Mingfei's eyes twitched. He was too embarrassed to say that he was overwhelmed by the sea of ​​questions. Apart from watching VTB and giving money as rewards, he really didn't find anything fun. He casually changed the subject:

"Why are you talking about money right when we meet? You know, talking about money hurts feelings! We're the top people in Chaldea, after all. How can we be so vulgar? Right now, thinking about the upcoming New Year's Eve, we should be actively imagining a bright future for humanity, talking about moral ideals and the infinitely beautiful starry sky above us!"

Finger scratched his head, "Brother, are you a Kant reader?"

"Kang what? I only know Master Kang."

"Oh, just pretend I didn't say anything," Finkel pursed his lips. "Come, let me introduce you to a good brother I met recently. He's the operator directly in charge of the control room, Chaldeas!"

How many good brothers do you have?

Lu Mingfei saw a thin man with glasses from behind Finger's bull-like figure, "Uh, hello, Mr. Operator!"

"How can you introduce someone like that? I'm not an operator. I have a name, Videl!" The thin man adjusted his glasses and protested.

"Haha, your name is a little hard to pronounce," Finkel said embarrassedly. "Well, why don't we go to the cafeteria for a few drinks while we still have time!"

"You want to take advantage of our money and eat and drink for free? I tell you, it's too late!" Biddle looked cunning, he would not give Finkel the chance to take advantage.

Finkel was about to reply when he heard Caesar's voice over the radio, "All Chaldea employees, please come to the control room. The first official spirit particle transfer meeting will begin in 15 minutes!"

Chapter 347: Okay, okay, this time it’s your turn to chat across servers

"Tsk, why is the director so tight on time?" Finger's complaining voice rang in the ears of Lu Mingfei and the others. "Who will compensate me for the New Year's Eve dinner I missed?"

"What does the meeting on soul particle transfer have to do with me in the medical department?"

Although Lu Mingfei couldn't empathize with Finger's desire to eat for free, as a native of China who had been nurtured by the culture of meetings, he had a deep aversion to the cultural dregs of leaders presiding over meetings. Furthermore, as a member of the medical department, he wouldn't be directly involved.

What difference did it make whether this useless meeting was held or not? Could it be that I would need to take over as director and preside over matters like the transfer of spirit particles?

Rather than this damn meeting that took up the prime time before the holiday, he would rather go back and turn on his computer to watch the live broadcast, spend some quality time with Miss Magic☆Merry, and enjoy this rare holiday eve. Isn't that great?

Finger said with a depressed look on his face, "Since your heart is already on the outside... then just run away! Anyway, things like the spirit particle transfer meeting have nothing to do with you unless something goes wrong. On the contrary, I, a member of Group A, can't escape."

Hearing Finkel's words out of the blue, Lu Mingfei's heart, which had been suppressed for a long time, finally became agitated.

That's right, damn! He could just run away. Director Caesar's style is always that meetings prioritize efficiency and getting straight to the point, with no need for roll calls or other such messy disciplinary rules.

"That's fine, Brother Finger. If anyone asks me later, just say I have a stomachache and need to go to the toilet!" Lu Mingfei slipped away as fast as he could.

"Brother Lu, your excuse is too classic..."

Ultimately, Finkel couldn't stop Lu Mingfei as he fled against the crowd. "Forget it, forget it. I hope the director won't mark him as absent. Honestly, if I couldn't miss the meeting, I'd want to be that cool, too."

"It's the end of the year, and everyone's looking forward to the holidays. Who doesn't want to relax?" Videl shook her head. "But is it really okay to be so lazy?"

Finkel had an indifferent look on his face. "Slacking off and enjoying yourself should be the meaning of life. Who would want to work if they weren't forced to?... This is all because of that damn demon god. He's ruined the future of human history! Don't let me catch you!"

He clenched his fists tightly, and in the blink of an eye he turned from a tired and lazy man into a warrior with a look of grief and anger on his face, as if he couldn't wait to beat the Demon King to death with every punch.

"Don't worry, we'll meet each other eventually." Videl adjusted his glasses and seemed to be hinting at something while speaking.

He passed Fingel and quickened his pace to the control room, a subtle glint in his eyes. "I'll go first. After all, as an operator, I need to arrive early to help the director inspect the facilities."

----

"Brother, is this really okay? It's about to start."

When Lu Mingfei ran all the way back to the staff dormitory, there was almost no one in the corridor. He must have gathered in the central control room long ago. However, he never expected to meet the little devil here.

"Tsk, why are you in front of me like this again?" Lu Mingfei looked at the little devil in the suit with a sidelong glance. "Aren't you quite keen on women's clothing? Keep going!"

As for Lu Mingze's reminder, Lu Mingfei didn't take it to heart at all. He thought he was urging him to attend the meeting. He completely forgot that Lu Mingze had asked him to prepare for surgical studies in the first place in order to prevent some accidents... Or perhaps, Lu Mingfei's mind was like that of a college student before the holidays. Even if the book knowledge was placed in front of him, he couldn't associate anything with it.

Lu Mingze, who was standing in the middle of the road, was slightly surprised when he heard Lu Mingfei talk about women's clothing in a relaxed and natural way. "Huh, I thought my slow-witted and timid brother would only discover the truth much later."

"What's so difficult about this? Humph, your every move has long been within my predictions."

Lu Mingfei thought to himself, I've seen through your tricks a long time ago.

As good brother Fingel said, as a mature Sigma man, he will never fall into the trap of three-dimensional women.

It is said that the reason why Fen Gou can talk so confidently is because he claims that he has indeed gotten rid of vulgar tastes and has an ideal two-dimensional soul girlfriend (EVA:?).

But every time he was asked, this bastard started to hide it, so Lu Mingfei never saw the so-called two-dimensional soul girlfriend. He seriously suspected that Finkel was a schizophrenic patient, who secretly fantasized about his two-dimensional girlfriend in bed every day and then did his craft alone.

However, Lu Mingfei was different. He believed his situation was much better than Finger's. Ever since he met the world's cutest Magic☆Merry, he had the perfect two-dimensional dream partner. Oh my god, she was so beautiful! Can you tell me which three-dimensional woman in real life could match her charm? None!

Hearing such a firm and calm tone, Lu Mingze seemed to be meeting Lu Mingfei for the first time and asked uncertainly:

"I didn't expect my brother to have grown to this point? If that's the case, then I should cancel such performances in the future."

Lu Mingze thought that his brother was so obsessed with the magic☆Meili Xiaohao he played that he was completely unaware of his true identity and was still in the dark. He didn't expect that he had already seen through the truth and was still pretending to be consistent.

"No, I think it's fine!"

Lu Mingfei thought his good assistant Zero was going to disappear, and hurried to dissuade him. Although in his opinion, the little devil pretending to be Zero liked to put on a pretentious and cold appearance as a contrast, he did not buy it. What's more, the Zero he played was very capable. With such a top assistant, wouldn't he be able to get a lot of fish?

As for forcing him to learn so much about surgery... Tsk, Lu Mingfei felt that he was being magnanimous, and considering that Ling was willing to work diligently, he simply let the merits and demerits be offset!

"Well... you better keep your fake identity and don't leave. I still need you here. No, I'm not interested in your women's clothing... you're just more useful!"

Lu Mingfei felt that compromising with the little devil was a shameful act for him as a human being, so he spoke hesitantly.

"Oh? It works?"

Lu Mingze’s eyes widened visibly. This time he was genuinely surprised. “So… will you continue to watch Magic☆Meili in the future?”

"Yes... No, what is Magic☆Meili? I don't know!" Lu Mingfei was stubborn. He would never admit to the little devil that he liked a virtual anchor! Otherwise, when he faced Zero in disguise, wouldn't he be unable to take advantage of the opportunity to slack off?

slip away.

With something on his mind, Lu Mingfei felt that he must not continue with this topic, so he moved aside, intending to escape from Lu Mingze and go into his own dormitory.

"Brother, there's nothing to be shy about." Just when Lu Mingfei was about to pass by the little devil, the latter suddenly chuckled. From his point of view, Lu Mingfei undoubtedly chose to accept him even after knowing that he had used a small account to play Magic☆Merry, but he just had to put on a bit of resistance on the surface.

It seems that the decision to choose Chaldea from the beginning was the right one. Being here will help me reach a deal with my brother more quickly.

...But I didn't expect that my brother would have such an interest. Does he like women's postures?

But Lu Mingze quickly suppressed the emotions surging in his heart and said, "But before that, you have to think carefully. The gears of fate are about to start turning. If you choose to hide in the dormitory and eat cake, you may not be able to catch up with the start of the script."

"What kind of script is this? Director Caesar's staff meeting? He's the star of the show. What does a medical director like me have to do with it? ... See you later!"

Lu Mingfei ran even faster.

The little boy in the suit stopped in the middle of the corridor and shook his head with mixed feelings.

----

"I never thought I'd be able to eat strawberry cake in this deserted dorm!"

Lu Mingfei opened his bottle of happy water and shoved the slices of cake into his mouth. Although he had never been a big fan of desserts before, Magic☆Meili had specifically recommended a certain brand of strawberry cake during the live broadcast.

Lu Mingfei believed that as Magic☆Merry's die-hard number one, it was necessary for him to have the same hobbies as his dream lover... so he did not hesitate to order a lot of cakes of the same brand from the dessert category at the Chaldea Restaurant.

Although, rationally speaking, Magic☆Merry probably wouldn't necessarily like that cake, and recommending it was probably just a business deal from an advertiser...

As for this vacant dormitory room, Lu Mingfei was not worried at all about anyone coming. Although Chaldea seemed to be fully staffed, this large organization occupying a snow-capped peak actually had quite a lot of remaining space. In addition, after the old director fell, Caesar replaced a group of employees, so the existence of such an empty room was not surprising at all.

"By the way, since we're already eating Magic☆Merry's cake, don't forget to watch Magic☆Merry's New Year's Eve live broadcast on time!"

Lu Mingfei pulled out his phone. He had already noted the live broadcast time. He estimated that the warm-up would still be a long time away, but it would be nice to get a glimpse of it in advance and see more of Magic☆Meili's peerless beauty. It would definitely be better than Director Caesar's boring meeting.

Wow.

The automatic sliding door of the room suddenly opened.

"Who is it?" Lu Mingfei, with cake crumbs still hanging on the corners of his mouth, turned his head in surprise, only to see that it was Emiya who led the way into the room!

Oh no! I haven't even been slacking off for 30 minutes, and Captain Emiya has already spotted me. And he's even coming to arrest me personally? Is that even necessary?

However, Emiya seemed to be still talking to someone outside the door, "--Your room will be here from now on. I know you've probably had a relatively comfortable life these days, so don't despise its simplicity. At least many of Chaldea's facilities are very modern..."

Lu Mingfei heard the man outside the door say again, "Brother Emiya, isn't there someone else in here? Are you sure this is an empty room?"

"Huh? Lu Mingfei, why are you here?" After noticing the situation in the room, Emiya immediately understood why. "Caesar informed the employees that they should attend the meeting, right? You..."

Lu Mingfei, who had been caught, panicked at this moment. He hurriedly packed up his things and prepared to leave. "Sorry, Boss Emiya, I'll be there right away!"

"Hey, this voice sounds so familiar, you are... Mingming!"

Lu Mingfei, who was suddenly called by an ID from the early days of StarCraft, looked up in surprise, and saw a mature man with long eyebrows and an unconventional appearance walking behind Emiya. It turned out to be - Old Tang!

"Huh? Old Tang, what are you doing here? Antarctic tour group?"

"What are you talking about, buddy? I'm here as a serious foreign aid. You're obviously not from the medical department, so listen to my brother Emiya and go to the meeting!"

"Foreign aid? You? Could it be that Chaldea organized a StarCraft tournament on New Year's Eve, planning for you and me to compete and recreate the famous scene where the King of Esports crushed the King of Tang with a single finger?"

"Go away, it's still unclear who will crush who. Speaking of esports experts, even Wa, the one who was second only to you and even better than me in the StarCraft online team back then, is here. Let's play a game after this is over. Don't get scared when you do!"

"Wow, all three of us coming?"

Lu Mingfei thought to himself, is this a mistake?

No, buddy, could this be some offline esports club? It looks like a serious savior organization, but in reality, everyone has unique skills and can beat the pros in esports? So, saving the world depends on playing games?

Old Tang rolled his eyes, carrying a large travel bag, and sat down on the edge of the bed in the dormitory.

"What time is it?" Emiya glanced at the digital clock in the room. "I've been wasting time just now, so I won't be able to attend the meeting in time. Lu Mingfei, go back to your workplace and get ready—"

【——! 】

A shrill and piercing alarm suddenly sounded in the ears of several people.

"The attack has indeed begun!"

Emiya and Old Tang looked at each other, without looking at the confused Lu Mingfei, and threw down their luggage and ran away.

Boom!

Emiya's figure was as fast as lightning. With his God Slayer physique, it took him almost no time to arrive at the scene.

Old Tang also walked very fast along the way, and his walking speed was not much behind Wei Gong. With each step he took, his body flashed and changed direction as if in a broken frame, as if he was crossing a considerable distance with each step!

This is... the magic of the gods... that is, the magic of thought: shrinking the earth into an inch!

The smell of flames grew closer. Emiya listened to the sharp alarm and saw the isolation doors rapidly falling, a pre-set explosion-proof isolation measure.

These did not pose any obstacles to him. He and Old Tang indeed witnessed a sea of ​​fire in the control room. The one who was obviously not affected at all after enduring the raging fire was the Chaldeas that was always running above their heads.

Even though the surface of Chaldeas had become completely charred.

This means that the human nature crises have begun.

Chapter 348 Do you understand the value of the Shenzhou Immortal?

Before Emiya and Lao Tang arrived, the control room where the explosion occurred.

"Hmph, knowing full well the sensitivity of the year-end period, they're still so lax. The employees are all eager to relax and enjoy themselves, and the supervisors and leaders are failing to control and disregard the overall situation... They didn't even notice my instructions. After all, Chaldea is only this level."

Videl took off his glasses, which seemed to be used for disguise, threw them on the ground and crushed them with his foot.

The pupils of both eyes burned brightly with the color of lava.

He was the one who was in the blast control room—no, it should be said that he was the Demon Pillar Flauros II.

For the Demon King, resurrecting the slain Demon Pillars was as easy as breathing and drinking water. All of them had long since cast off the dragon's physical cage and formed a high-level intelligence life form headed by Goetia of the General Bureau.

The demise of the physical body is no longer the end of life; it becomes materialized soul data and is unified by Goetia as the center, becoming a group of demon pillars that are closely related to Goetia.
