Volume 1 Hello, Lu Mingfei Chapter 89: First Love Brilliant as Summer Flowers (Part 2)
"Do you hate Caesar?" Chu Zihang asked.
"How is that possible! A man who eats someone's food will be soft-hearted and a man who takes someone's money will be grateful to him. I've never seen a rich second-generation man who says, "I'll give you a car when we meet. It's a Bugatti Veyron! I checked it out, 43 million! When I saw this number, I felt like I was knocked unconscious by the US dollars." Lu Mingfei stuck out her tongue. "What I mean is, boys and girls shouldn't mention others when they are together in private, especially when those people are outstanding."
"Okay, I understand." Chu Zihang nodded.
He is a very easy-to-talk to person and will treat everyone with respect, especially when the other person is a girl.
Caesar always claimed to be an Italian-style European gentleman, but in Chu Zihang's eyes, he was just a rich and noble son. He would be very nice to a girl, willing to give her all kinds of ingenious small gifts to make her happy, and he loved to hold her slender waist and admire the golden sky together on the cruise ship under the sunset. He seemed to be very close but he would never say "you are my girlfriend". Chu Zihang, on the other hand, treated the girl opposite him as a fragile work of art from beginning to end. He was polite and kept a proper social distance. He would only approach the girl when she needed him, otherwise it was as if there was an absolute area between them that would electrocute them if they approached each other.
“Sometimes I really feel like you’re like a wooden fish.” Lu Mingfei leaned against the glass wall, not looking at Chu Zihang, “The kind that makes no sound unless you knock on it twice.”
"Sorry, I'm really not very good at chatting."
"But you are good at academic questions? If I ask you about the development of your life, I always feel that you can tell me from the Big Bang to how humans first hunted." Lu Mingfei smiled secretly.
This sounds like a joke, but it is not a joke when it comes to Chu Zihang, because he is likely to do this...
Chu Zihang, who is well aware of his own characteristics, feels a little embarrassed in the face of such jokes. He knows a lot of strange knowledge, but does not know how to get along with girls. Books can tell you how gorillas attract each other and even mate, but they will not tell you what the meaning of every cute look of the girl opposite you is.
Every girl is like a book, a book that Chu Zihang cannot understand.
"Speaking of which, Senior Brother, do you bear a grudge against me?" Qianqian's heels stopped, the hem of her skirt fluttered for a moment, and she turned around to follow her master's steps, "I shot you again, and I continue to threaten you in this way."
As she said this, Lu Mingfei hooked her fingers together and twirled them behind her back, feeling a little uneasy. Although she knew Chu Zihang's character, if a person was treated like this by the same person three times in a row, she would definitely lose her temper.
“I don’t hate you, but I do remember you very clearly.” Chu Zihang’s answer was a bit bloodless. To Lu Mingfei, it was as if the overbearing CEO was saying in his heart, “Little goblin, I’ll remember you. Don’t even think about escaping from my palm from now on.” “I always felt that when you released the Word Spirit on the top of the church, you were a little different from before. You were still you on the outside, but you seemed to be a different person on the inside. Whether it was your eyes, movements, or demeanor, they all gave me a sense of unfamiliarity.”
"...Did you tell anyone about my use of the Word Spirit?"
"No, the Word Spirit files of each student in Cassel are kept secret from each other. In fact, up to now, the Night Watch forum is still discussing whose Word Spirit the shining sun belongs to. No one knows that it was you who defeated Norton."
“It’s okay.” Lu Mingfei patted her chest nervously, as if she had just gone through some severe trial. “In fact, I had that feeling afterwards, as if I was no longer myself when I used that word spirit… Do you think there’s something wrong with my bloodline?”
The rainy night on the viaduct was the first time they came face to face with anything related to the dragon clan. After coming to Cassel and knowing the connection between the so-called hybrids and Deadpool, Lu Mingfei was very worried that she would become a devil or something in the future, especially after using skylight to fight Norton.
Looking back, it seems that my self at that time was replaced by some special emotion. I had no fear in the face of heavy rain and blazing flames. Instead, I felt more joy and bloodlust for the powerful force I possessed. It was as if I had become a bloodthirsty berserker at that time.
She was a little scared. This was obviously related to the so-called deal by Lu Mingze. The devilish little loli said that if four deals were reached, Lu Mingfei's soul would be replaced by Lu Mingze. This made Lu Mingfei begin to doubt whether that strange state was a manifestation of Lu Mingze's inner self. Maybe it was Lu Mingze who was controlling her body at that time, not herself.
So today she specially asked Chu Zihang out. She wanted to ask him things in every sense. She really didn't have anyone she was particularly familiar with in Kassel. Although Ling was a great roommate, she was also a freshman like herself. It would be better to ask someone more familiar with the matter.
"Did you have a strong desire to attack at that time?" Chu Zihang asked, "It was the feeling that if anyone obstructed me, I would kill him, so you negotiated with me with a gun."
"A little bit..." Lu Mingfei scratched his head. Now thinking about it, it was not easy for him to resist pulling the trigger at that time. If Chu Zihang had held on for a moment longer, the whole magazine of bullets might have been poured into his body.
Chu Zihang was silent. He had similar experiences to what Lu Mingfei described and performed. When bloodline is forcibly improved by some means, the spirit of the dragon clan will slowly erode the human part. People will become violent, cold, ruthless, and unpredictable. It is very likely that the girl who was laughing and joking with you in the last second will draw a gun at you and empty the entire magazine without mercy in the next second.
In the library of the ancient Lionheart Society, there was an exact record of this kind of thing. It was a forbidden method called Blood Explosion, which could activate the dragon bloodline in a short moment and greatly enhance the combat effectiveness of the hybrids. The price was that it was very likely to break through the critical blood limit between humans and dragons. Once it exceeded 50%, the hybrids would inevitably slide gradually towards the dragon side, immersed in the pleasure of omnipotent power, and eventually degenerate into Deadpool.
This is the reason why Chu Zihang's bloodline is unstable. He bet his life and exchanged a contract with the devil, thereby obtaining eternal golden eyes and sufficiently powerful strength. The price is that he may become a devil one day in the future.
Theoretically, Lu Mingfei should not be able to master such a thing. Chu Zihang spent more than a year in the Lionheart Society's fragments to summarize the method, which means that the blood explosion is still a secret in Kassel Academy. Then Chu Zihang can only think that Lu Mingfei's S-level bloodline is too pure. Maybe her bloodline has exceeded the 50% limit at the beginning, but in some special way, she can maintain a stable state. When she uses her power in large quantities, she will gradually find the originally sealed boundary and show the unstable dragon mental state.
"That's probably because you're using your Spirit Words with all your strength, and you're not used to it yet, so you're a little exhausted." Chu Zihang managed a rare smile, "It's okay, just relax. You can try eating more fruits recently, and drinking a glass of hot milk before bed can help calm your mind."
Chu Zihang told a white lie. With his current knowledge, he could not answer Lu Mingfei's question, but there were similarities between Lu Mingfei's description and his experience. After returning to Kassel College at the end of today, Chu Zihang would go to the Lionheart Society's remaining manuscripts to see if there were any related records, so as to answer this question that both parties were puzzled about.
"I'm glad there's nothing wrong!" Chu Zihang's comfort made Lu Mingfei happier than anything else. "There's one more thing I want to ask you, Senior Brother."
"I'll do my best to answer."
"Are dragons definitely the enemies of mankind and the ones who must be killed?" Lu Mingfei asked very softly.
After she recovered, Lu Mingfei recalled all the details of that night. She was sure that the face she saw in the scope was correct. Dragon King Norton was her interstellar friend Lao Tang. In the past few days, no matter QQ or StarCraft, all the messages were not replied. Lu Mingfei once asked Norma to help her find the AE86 in Chicago. It is estimated that there is only one such old car in the whole city.
Norma replied that there was an AE86 in the parking lot of the Hyatt Hotel. Lu Mingfei went to check and it was indeed Lao Tang's. She asked about the car's situation at the front desk. The receptionist said that this was a car that a whole team brought in more than a month ago. Everyone had left the hotel, but the owner of this car had not returned yet. They were considering whether to pack up the car and sell it to the used car market because it looked like it had been abandoned.
This made Lu Mingfei more and more convinced that Norton was Old Tang, but how could a good human suddenly become a dragon king? Could it be that in his previous life trajectory, Old Tang had always been acting, pretending to be a harmless good person?
"There have been many historical proofs of this from ancient times to the present," Chu Zihang said. "You've also learned in class that dragons are the pinnacle of evolution on the tree of life. They once ruled the entire world and enslaved humans. Such creatures certainly can't coexist with humans. Think about it from another angle, like the relationship between humans and robots in science fiction novels. One day, robots suddenly rebel and occupy the entire world, snatching all the knowledge from factories and scientific research systems, and driving humans to uninhabited islands. How could humans let these rebellious robots go? When their technology develops again and the population has the opportunity to go to war, they will definitely counterattack again, and by then no robot will be spared."
"I understand the analogy. If there was a cute Doraemon among the robots who used to serve you and made faces to cheer you up when you were sad, and you were the human army that fought back, would you still stick a knife into his heart and dig out his chip?" Lu Mingfei asked seriously. She looked into Chu Zihang's eyes, hoping to get a special answer. You can tell what a person like Chu Zihang will choose with just a guess.
"This is the only way." Chu Zihang answered without any hesitation. He was indeed a messenger of justice. "My robot participated in the rebellion. From the beginning, we were doomed to never go back to the past. Even if he cried and hugged my thighs when he met me and begged me for mercy, it would be useless. If I keep him, maybe one day in the future he will use his experience to gather a large number of robots and repeat the past history."
"Brother, you are a thorough rationalist..." Lu Mingfei sighed, so she didn't say that she knew Norton, because she knew Chu Zihang would give such an answer. On this point, it would be difficult for the two of them to agree on the same idea. "As for me... I should still save my little robot. We once had good memories. He likes me, and I care about him. That's enough. If I'm worried that he will rebel again, then I will remove its chip and reinstall it in a very small body, and keep him in a transparent jar like a cat. This is both a punishment and a new life."
Having said that, Lu Mingfei didn't know what her mentality would be the next time she met the Dragon King Norton. She would not be afraid of using the skylight, let alone Norton, she would not hesitate to attack Nidhogg. But if it was just Lu Mingfei standing there, ordinary Lu Mingfei, she didn't know what her expression would be, witnessing the demise of the Dragon King with her own eyes.
"Girls always like to act on their emotions." Chu Zihang said in a cliché tone, as if he, an emotional idiot, understood girls very well as complex emotional creatures.
"Don't look so academic at a time like this! It's just a discussion anyway. The world won't be destroyed, and robots won't rebel. Modern technology isn't that awesome yet!" Lu Mingfei clapped her hands, clearing away the damn haze. "Thank you, brother, for listening to me for so long. Let's go eat! I've been scanning the electronic map for a long time, and finally found a Chinese restaurant with a very good reputation. The boss is a real Northeasterner! He can cook all kinds of Chinese cuisine. The cafeteria in Kassel is good, but it's still a bit heavy for Chinese tastes. I really miss Kung Pao Chicken, Cabbage with Vinegar and BJ Roast Duck! Today's my treat, brother, let's go and have a good meal!"
Chu Zihang looked at her sparkling eyes and couldn't really say that he had already eaten. He could only nod and smile. With his brain circuit, he probably didn't think that the process of a date should include being sweet together in a restaurant, so he even went to eat a 70% full meal before going out.
A text message suddenly came in. Chu Zihang took out his cell phone and saw that it was signed by Principal Angers.
"Chu Zihang, please come to the hospital. I have something to talk to you about."
