Lionheart Society: I am an S-class freshman, with infinite power of words.

Lin Chen swiftly helped Manstein to his feet: "Professor, there's no need for such a grand gesture."

Professor Manstein stared at Lin Chen in disbelief: "You killed the King of Bronze and Fire? What just happened?"

"Luckily," Lin Chen said. "Let's clean up the battlefield quickly. The commotion just now had a huge impact; I think it must have attracted a lot of attention!"

Professor Manstein reacted quickly: "Hurry! Clean up the battlefield as soon as possible! Send specialists into the water to retrieve the remains of Dragon King Norton! At the same time, deploy helicopters and satellites to clear the battlefield!"

The specialists snapped out of their daze, turning their admiring gazes away from Lin Chen and quickly returning to their work.

Lin Chen sat down on the deck, with Nuonuo and Ling surrounding him on either side.

Nono thoroughly checked Lin Chen, asking, "Are you alright? Please don't let it affect your health!"

Lin Chen pinched Nuonuo's cheek: "Whether it will affect your health or not, we'll find out tonight by trying it!"

Nuonuo punched Lin Chen in the chest: "What are you saying! Lu Mingfei is still listening in!"

Ling handed Lin Chen a Bluetooth earphone: "He's fast asleep, should we wake him up?"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "No need, let him sleep a little longer!"

The earphones were playing Lin Chen's private channel, through which came the voice of Mai Shude.

"Is everything going well?"

“The matter is resolved,” Lin Chen said. “And I’ve spoken with your former boss.”

Su Enxi's voice came through the earphones instantly: "Really?"

Zero, who was standing next to him, also leaned over and looked at Lin Chen with a slightly serious expression.

Lin Chen shrugged: "Of course it's true. I made a deal with your boss, and now you're all mine!"

Su Enxi almost screamed through the earphones: "That's amazing! Boss, how did you do that!"

Mai Shude's voice was also filled with disbelief: "But... how could this be? How could he agree to this!"

Zero remained silent for a while, choosing to listen to what Lin Chen had to say.

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Because for your former boss, there are other more important people compared to you!"

Jiude Mai realized something: "You mean Lu Mingfei?"

Lin Chen nodded: "I will do my best to protect Lu Mingfei from now on, but you are all mine now!"

Mai Shude was still a little incredulous: "But why would he agree to this? This deal doesn't sound like a very good deal!"

Lin Chen nodded: "Indeed, he didn't agree!"

"Huh?" Su Enxi was taken aback.

Lin Chen continued, "But I didn't refuse. I demonstrated my strength, and he's left now."

Zero looked at Lin Chen: "Where did he go?"

Lin Chen shrugged and kicked Lu Mingfei, who was still fast asleep next to him.

Lu Mingfei suddenly woke up with a start, looking around as if she had just had a nightmare: "What happened? What happened? Am I dead? Where am I? Help me—am I still alive?"

Nono rolled her eyes at him: "You're something else!"

Lu Mingfei looked at Nuonuo and was immediately overjoyed: "Sister-in-law, you're still alive!"

Nuonuo was speechless: "I'm perfectly fine, what nonsense are you talking about!"

Lu Mingfei patted her chest: "It's good that you're alright, it's good that I don't have to have my fingers chopped off. Hey, where's the Dragon King?"

"He's already been killed by Lin Chen!" Nuonuo said. "But you, with such a huge commotion just now, you were still able to sleep so soundly in the water. When it comes to sleeping, your S-rank is absolutely well-deserved!"

Lu Mingfei scratched her head sheepishly, "I don't know what happened just now, I felt like I fainted and started to sleep!"

Lin Chen looked at Lu Mingfei, who had reverted to her former pathetic self.

If Lin Chen hadn't fought alongside him just now, it would have been hard to imagine that Lu Mingze had been on him.

Perhaps, that was the real Lu Mingfei.

Lin Chen shook his head and gently patted Lu Mingfei's shoulder: "You're tired, go inside and rest for a while."

"Alright!" Lu Mingfei got up. "Speaking of which, I'm so hungry. Is there anything to eat?"

Watching Lu Mingfei enter the cabin, Lin Chen turned to look in Zero's direction and spoke to Zero, as well as the two people in his earpiece.

"From today onwards, you are my girls. The rest of our interactions are between him and me, and have nothing to do with you!"

Lin Chen's voice carried an undeniable firmness. Zero looked into Lin Chen's eyes, and even without the golden pupils flashing in them, they still inspired no thought of disobedience.

Zero nodded unconsciously: "I will be obedient!"

Su Enxi immediately replied through the earphones, "Received, received!"

After a moment of silence, Mai Shude finally spoke: "Understood, boss!"

A gentle smile appeared on Lin Chen's face.

Originally, Lin Chen didn't want to meet Lu Mingze so soon, but how could he give up on these beautiful girls?

154: Be Lin Chen's pretty girl! Hotel themed room!

With the death of Dragon King Norton, the Bronze Project came to an end.

Manstein directed the executive department staff to clean up the mess, a task that was second nature to the executive department specialists.

There are some formidable figures in the executive department's China branch; they even have connections within the department.

A massive tremor occurred in the Kuimen area, and countless plumes of white smoke filled the air, but these were cleverly concealed by the executive department's specialists.

The remains of Dragon King Norton were quite large. After the Executive Department cut them into pieces, they were airlifted to the main campus of Kassel College in batches.

These are the remains of a Dragon King, and they have considerable research significance.

Among them, the Dragon King Norton's Dragon Bone Cross is a rare and precious item among rare collectibles.

Lin Chen had no interest in this; his task was already completed.

What is the Dragon King's dragon bone cross? His soul is with Lin Chen.

Lin Chen attempted to use Life Creation to recreate Old Tang's soul.

But Old Tang and Dragon King Norton are bound together. Giving Old Tang life is equivalent to giving Dragon King Norton life again.

With Lin Chen's current strength, reviving someone would be a piece of cake, just like he did with EVA back then.

But Norton is different. 000 is a Dragon King-level being, a noble first-generation species.

Lin Chen is still a ways off from reviving the Dragon King.

However, Lin Chen was not in a hurry, even if he wanted to revive it, it might not be a good thing.

If things get out of control and Dragon King Norton goes berserk, are we going to have to fight him again?

So Lin Chen put that thought aside for the time being. Now that he had completed such an important task, Lin Chen needed to take a good vacation.

Although Project Bronze has ended, the finishing touches will take some time.

The Executive Department will need to deal with the enormous skeleton of Norton, the King of Bronze and Fire, for quite some time.

So Lin Chen took this opportunity to relax.

Lin Chen left the Bronze Project base and walked along the riverside road.

A gentle breeze swept across the river, causing the grass along the riverbank to sway slightly.

The sunset cast shimmering light on the river, and from this vantage point, you can see the reservoir perfectly.

The place looked as grand and magnificent as famous mountains and rivers, but a battle of the century had taken place there just one day earlier.

Lin Chen squinted his eyes, savoring the scent of the river in the wind.

A loudspeaker blared from behind; it was Lin Chen's Panamera.

The Panamera drove up from the end of the road, the window rolled down, revealing the exquisitely sculpted face of the woman named Jiude Mai.

"Please get in the car, boss!"

Lin Chen smiled slightly, opened the door, and sat in the passenger seat.

The car started up again, and Mai Shude turned it around and drove towards the city, facing the evening glow.

"Boss, where are we going?" Mai Shude asked, her lips slightly parted beneath sunglasses.

Lin Chen rolled down the car window: "Let's drive to the edge of the city and get some fresh air!"

Mai Shude paused for a moment, then said, "This is the edge of the city. I'm asking you where in the city you're going!"

Lin Chen sighed helplessly: "You've ruined such a good atmosphere. You have to learn to read your boss's expressions!"

“…I’m sorry,” Mai said. “I haven’t had any training in this area before!”

"It's alright!" Lin Chen leaned back comfortably. "It doesn't matter what your previous employer demanded, but from now on, your primary task is to stay with me!"

"To accompany you?" Mai Shude didn't quite understand.

Lin Chen tilted his head and looked at the stunning profile of Mai Shude: "I don't lack employees, nor do I need any assassins. All I need is a beautiful girl by my side. All you have to do is stay by my side!"

Mai Shude bit her lip and said, "That's what Chip Girl told me back then, but I didn't quite understand it at the time."
