Volume 1 Hello, Lu Mingfei Chapter 76 Flying Fish (Part 3)
In the attic of the clock tower, the 1952 classic western film "High Noon" was playing, in which law enforcement officer Gary Cooper walked on the dusty streets of a western town with a gun.
The moviegoers were dressed like Gary Cooper, in a plaid shirt, a rolled-brimmed hat, and cowhide boots with gleaming spurs. The old man lay on the sofa like a giant potato, tapping his feet on the coffee table, holding a bottle of beer in his hand.
It has been more than ten years since the millennium. After the new century, various entertainment methods have emerged one after another. In the 1980s and 1990s, people were still playing Subor game consoles and going to arcades, dance halls and bars. Two thousand years later, each person has a computer at home, and the Internet is enough to travel around the world. People's spiritual life is unprecedentedly rich, and there has never been such a grand scene in the entire history of mankind.
But the old cowboy-like man seems to still be living in the 1950s, when the whole world had just emerged from the war and the United States made a large number of excellent western films to promote its own national character and spiritual tendencies. His spirit is as young as the galloping horses and fighting with guns in that western wilderness.
Scientific research says that if there is no disease, the maximum life span of humans is about 150 years. At this limit, the organs will gradually lose their original functions, and humans will die naturally. However, the blood of the dragon race can slow down the aging of the human body, and even extend beyond this limit unnaturally. Therefore, most of the ancient hybrids are still living in their youth and are out of touch with the times. Their hobbies, tastes, and fashions are all like a broken tape in the film of time, and will never move forward again.
Nicolas Flamel, vice-president of Kassel College, is such a person.
The phone rang and the vice-principal picked up the receiver.
"Still reading your old stuff? Aren't you tired of it after so many times?"
"Hi! Ange, have you returned to the college?" The vice-principal's eyes lit up.
"Yes, we also found the Dragon King's cocoon, and I'm preparing to do an MRI scan on it." Ange said, "I suggest you watch Scent of a Woman ."
"I know you don't like hot-blooded movies." The old cowboy held the phone between his shoulders and took a sip of wine. "You are a flirtatious old man, unlike me, a remnant of the old times. In my opinion, among all the new things nowadays, the Internet is probably the only good thing, because you can see beautiful women from all over the world anytime and anywhere."
"If you are willing to walk out of the bell tower, tidy up a bit, and then go to the bar, you don't have to look at the beauty anymore, but you can put your arm around her waist and have a drink together." Ange joked, "It seems that we are not the only ones interested in the Dragon King's legacy. As soon as I came back, someone sneaked in. Norma judged that it was an invasion by the dragon tribe. I think you can lift the [Precepts] and let our young people exercise."
"Are you sure? Word spirits are Pandora's box. Some students' powers may not be contained once they are released. Maybe the next time we meet, we should dig dirt together in the ruins of Kassel to fish out our buried bodies, because only our souls are left."
"This world is not something that we two can continue to defend. We need young people. They cannot just be elites who have graduated from theoretical classes when they go to the battlefield. They also need practical combat experience."
The vice principal was silent for a long time: "Well, I hope you won't regret it."
He turned off the TV and sat quietly on the sofa, with only a candle on the table illuminating his old face. This candle had been lit for so many years that even he, the creator, could not remember.
Normally, using a Word Spirit is a huge burden on the holder, not to mention maintaining the effect of the Word Spirit for a long time. But there is a way to break through this obstacle and even artificially expand the scope of the Word Spirit.
It's called the Alchemy Matrix. Just like the alchemists in the animation, it consists of a closed and complex circular array. By consuming the corresponding cost, the effect of the words can be amplified.
In modern times, the science of alchemy has almost been lost. This power, which was born in the ancient dragon world, was once mastered by a member of the human race. They have passed it down from generation to generation until now, and each generation's name has that resounding surname: Flamel.
Nicholas Flamel finished his beer, sat up straight on the sofa, and blew softly to extinguish the candlelight. The word spirit covering the entire Kassel Academy collapsed, and every student could feel that some invisible pressure that restricted them disappeared.
Almost at the same moment, Jiude Mai jumped out from the gap. Her figure became darker and darker, and finally as dark as a ball of ink. The moment she landed on the ground, her figure melted into the shadows.
The spirit of words [dark light].
Everything was just as Chip Girl had arranged. Cassel was bound to lift the restrictions of the [Precepts]. To some extent, this was expected. It was a deal that both parties were willing to make. Some paid, some worked. Everyone was on the same stage, each playing their own role, but pretending not to know who their opponent was. Compared to the actors, the audience might be more enthusiastic.
All the team members followed Jiude Mai and stood beside her. The circle of about two meters was the realm of Mingzhao. It was a bit difficult for twelve people to squeeze together, so the others had to hold hands and surround Jiude Mai and walk slowly, like a big piece of Cthulhu meat that no one could see.
Someone knocked on the church door, and then it slowly closed.
Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang, who were hiding in the confessional on the first floor, heard the noise of someone coming in and looked at each other. The intruder came a little too casually, just like a normal believer coming to church for worship. But this should not have happened, because all the entrances to the church were well sealed. Lu Mingfei tried to come in before, and the door was tightly locked.
In other words, the church door was like nothing to the intruder. Even a skilled locksmith had to use tools to test it to find out what the lock core looked like and how to open it. But this guy just pushed it open and closed it as easily as he could, without wasting even a second.
He comes with bad intentions.
"Just stay here and don't move." Chu Zihang said in a low voice.
"Brother, are you going to buy me some oranges?" Lu Mingfei couldn't help but ask rudely. When she heard this, she immediately thought of the text.
"...No, I'm just afraid that I might hurt you later." It's easy to get hit by a dimensionality reduction attack if you stay with a rotten guy. Chu Zihang really can't keep up with Lu Mingfei's pace. He is always easily choked and covered in dust. "My words are not easy to control. This is why Lionheart will only leave me here."
"Wow, Senior Brother, why do I hear your calm statement mean only this? My Word Spirit is so awesome!" Lu Mingfei 's . "Don't worry, I know how to provide flank support! You're responsible for killing monsters, and I'll do sneak attacks. In the game, you're the tank and I'm the shooter. I won't hold you back."
She was fiddling with the Desert Eagle proudly. This large-caliber weapon looked very intimidating, and was completely different from the PPK she had been holding before.
"Is it Caesar's gun?" Chu Zihang recognized the origin of this thing at a glance.
“You recognize all this…” Lu Mingfei stopped smiling immediately. She knew that Chu Zihang and Caesar were sworn enemies even though she had only been there for a few days. She thought her senior brother would definitely be unhappy if he showed off things from his rivals in front of his own Onii-chan.
"I have fought him many times, in all aspects. When we competed in target shooting at the shooting range, he used this gun." Chu Zihang's face showed no expression. "But I didn't expect him to give the gun to you. I thought it was very important to him."
"He just lent it to me. What he gave me was actually a car key. I think it was called a Bugatti Veyron."
"oh."
It's over. You know it's over when you hear this word "oh". When the other party talks about something you are not interested in during QQ chatting, you will get an "oh" reply. Usually goddesses use this to deal with suitors. If it changes to now, it probably means that Chu, the male god, is a little dissatisfied with Caesar for giving a very expensive gift to his junior sister.
"But it doesn't seem very practical." Lu Mingfei quickly added, pretending to be indifferent, but actually secretly looking into Chu Zihang's eyes, "I'm here to go to college, I'm not going to drive a supercar out for a stroll every day. In my opinion, it's not as good as the headband you gave me, brother, hey!"
She tilted her head slightly so that Chu Zihang could see the rose-red headband she used to tie her hair. She would wear it whenever she went out since she got it. Although she treated it very carefully, it still looked a little old after all these years and did not seem like a small accessory that a young girl should own.
"Do you like it very much?" Chu Zihang asked. This headband was chosen by his mother. After giving it to Lu Mingfei, the two of them didn't have much contact, so he never asked whether it was suitable.
"Of course I like it! You've seen me look like before, super old-fashioned. The headband you gave me was like an opportunity. After that, I slowly started to pay more attention to my appearance." This was an understatement. Chu Zihang probably didn't know that an ordinary gift in his eyes, had the meaning of disaster relief for Lu Mingfei.
Chu Zihang thought to himself, no wonder you have become a beautiful princess now, girls always change a lot when they grow up, and the country girl just didn't put in enough effort, after dressing up, she might be able to outshine all the other girls and win the title of school belle of Shilan Middle School.
"It's pretty good, but it's a little old." Chu Zihang twisted his neck slightly, and his bones crackled. "Then I'll ask you to support me. After this is over, I'll give you something else as a thank you gift."
"Don't go back on your word!" Lu Mingfei's eyes lit up.
"When have I ever broken my promise?" Chu Zihang asked back, "You must remember to hide with your back to me, otherwise you might get hurt by mistake."
"Understood!" Lu Mingfei smiled and saluted in a standard military salute.
Chu Zihang opened the door of the confessional. He was a typical good student, but he did not close the door at this moment. This was a hidden shortcut left for Lu Mingfei.
The intruder stood in the center of the church, her entire body covered in black combat uniform, including her head and face, but it was still clear that she was a girl, less than 1.6 meters tall, but with a curvy figure. However, the deputy stood with his hands hanging down, close to his legs, and his head slightly lowered, looking like a bookworm, which was hard to arouse interest.
The confessional was a side door, and Lu Mingfei's view was blocked by the tables and chairs in the front row as she squatted here. She crawled carefully along the floor, and vaguely saw the unexpected intruder through the gap between the benches. She felt that he looked familiar for some reason.
"Are you alone?" Chu Zihang asked.
"You are a person, and I am a person too, that's fair." The intruder's voice was processed by the equipment, and the electric current obscured most of her real timbre, making her sound like an old accordion. Even if the voice was preserved, it would be difficult for the people in Kassel to restore it and find out her identity.
This sentence sounded like a kind of confidence. Chu Zihang was the only one in the church because his mentor Schneider was very clear about Chu Zihang's combat ability. Extra people might be a burden to him. And the intruder was also a person, which meant that this girl was also a trump card for them. She could defeat the entire Lionheart Club elite who might be hiding in the church.
Ace vs. ace, master vs. master, it was indeed fair. It seemed that the opponent's ace didn't realize that there was a sinister Lao Liu cruising between the tables and chairs. Lu Mingfei successfully turned herself into a slithering beauty snake, and didn't make any noise. At this moment, she was hiding under the set of benches next to the intruder, and she could see the pair of small feet that would make foot fetishists feel excited. It was estimated to be about the same size as hers.
Thinking this way, Cassell is not the only one in the world who can produce a girl like Guns and Roses. Isn't this young lady also an awesome character? Her courage to break into the enemy camp alone is much more courageous than Gan Ning's 100 cavalrymen robbing the Wei camp. She had no intention of avoiding Chu Zihang's golden eyes, which means that she also has a very high purity of dragon bloodline.
