Volume 2 Hello, Xia Mi Chapter 113 Hello, Xia Mi (Part 3)
Perhaps Odin is a product that appeared after the ancient dragons died out? According to the description of Norse mythology itself, when Nidhogg bites off the world tree, it is the day of Ragnarok. Odin will lead his Valkyries in Valhalla to fight an unwinnable war until the world comes to an end and is reborn after destruction.
Valhalla. Lu Mingfei was stunned for a moment when she thought of this name. She suddenly remembered that Norton had also mentioned Valhalla when he was trying to kill her.
"I will grant you eternal liberation! This way you won't have to bear the fate of being abandoned like me. After an eternal slumber, you will finally reach the distant Hall of Heroes."
Norton knew about Odin's Valhalla. This should not be Old Tang's knowledge, but Norton knew about Odin's existence a long time ago. Judging from this sentence alone, Valhalla may even be a place like the dragon's tomb, where the dead heroic souls will be recycled by Odin until they become new Valkyries.
It would be nice if I could have an academic discussion with Norton about this matter, but unfortunately the dragon king's body and spirit have been separated, and no matter how violent he is, he will never become the Tyrannosaurus Rex that the secret party says will destroy the world. When he opens his eyes to look at this world next time, according to the current development speed of human technology and the ability to commit suicide, either humans will have destroyed themselves by then, or they will have moved to live on other planets. The earth will be left as a nest for the thousand-year-old dragon. This seems to be a good ending for both parties.
It seems that if you want to find out what Odin is, you may have to wait until the next time you meet one of the four great monarchs. However, by then, it is a question whether the new Tyrannosaurus classmate can sit down and talk to you in a friendly manner, let alone solve the problems of a mere human cultivator like you.
It's really strange that I actually think dragons would be good candidates for study. Maybe it's because Samsun and Old Tang, who I've met, are quite human-like. I've learned a lot from Samsun in the past six months. Although most of the time we can only communicate by phone or video due to the Pacific Ocean, when I come back, Samsun's hands-on guidance can benefit Lu Mingfei a lot. She even has the urge to compete with her senior brother.
Hmm...why not give it a try if you have the chance?
The morning sun shone in through the skylight, onto the empty basketball court. The basketball hit the bright light spot, making a soothing thump. Chu Zihang dribbled the ball alone, squatted down, and took a deep breath.
He was the only one in the huge venue. This was his family's basketball court. Playing basketball with himself was one of Chu Zihang's training methods.
When he was in junior high school, he played center in the city youth team. At that time, he was still above average. But after witnessing the secrets of the dragon race on the night of the rain, the ancient dragon bloodline in his body gradually began to awaken, and ordinary human competitive sports seemed boring. Stronger muscle strength, better agility, and super-angle bending of bones allowed him to completely ignore the advantage of height in basketball and crush ordinary people with overwhelming advantages.
This feeling is a bit like you have played Dota for ten years, and suddenly you meet a group of newbies, who click the mid-lane to become the core and fight 1 vs 5. They can create a 20,000 economic difference with one hand, and kill people everywhere. It may be a little fun at the beginning, but as long as you play a few more games, you will feel bored and quit sadly.
Chu Zihang walked into the shower room and stripped himself. He even had a shower routine, a strict three-minute schedule: one minute of hot water, one minute of cold water, and one minute of warm water. The first minute of hot water would squeeze out the remaining sweat in the body, the second minute of cold water would tighten the muscles and skin, and the third minute of warm water would rinse off and leave.
As opponents who train in the same Kassel training hall, Caesar and Chu Zihang have had many skin-to-skin interactions... oh no, bathing together. The two of them washed off their sweat in adjacent shower rooms. Caesar despised Chu Zihang's ascetic lifestyle. If it were him, if Kassel hadn't stopped him, he would consider replacing all the school showers with bathtubs filled with flower petals, and preparing some iced beer. Bathing should be an enjoyable thing rather than a routine task.
The cell phone sealed in the waterproof bag rang. Chu Zihang never leaves his cell phone, even when taking a shower. He has not yet become an official specialist of the executive department, but Professor Schneider has long used him as a trump card that is stronger than most specialists. He has already had twelve experiences of perfectly executing tasks.
"Successful completion of SS-level tasks will count as internship bonuses, and you can get 2 extra credits." Schneider went straight to the point. He knew that one of the main purposes of Chu Zihang's further studies at Kassel College was to graduate as soon as possible. He seemed to have something in his heart that he wanted to accomplish on his own, and it was that will that prompted him to take the initiative to find Kassel, which was rare among students.
"SS?" Chu Zihang paused for a second while wiping the water off his body. The Kuimen Project was only S-level. Was SS going to kill Nidhogg? Did the Black Emperor wake up early?
"It won't be difficult for you." Schneider said, "But be careful not to make a big scene and try to avoid casualties. You know your situation well. Norma has emailed you the detailed mission instructions. You need to retrieve an important document before 7 p.m. tonight. You and Lu Mingfei will act together. Our school work department on vacation in China will provide support."
"I understand." Chu Zihang knew what Schneider meant. Although he had completed all the twelve missions in the past, the process was not low-key. He once fought with a runaway hybrid word spirit on the baseball field, causing the crowd to burst their clothes. He also fought with Deadpool who could use electric light in the thick explosion smoke, and produced top-notch special effects like a continuous laser sword slash. Someone recorded that video and edited it and posted it on the Internet, which received millions of views.
One of the reasons is certainly because of the strength of his opponent, but he himself also contributed a lot. Once the fight started, it was difficult for him to stop. Jun Yan's weapon was powerful in itself. As long as he participated in the battle, it would become a large-scale scene like a war front where no one would stop until one was dead. It was a typical killer style of play.
Of course, his mentor knew everything about his students. If all those battle reports were submitted truthfully, Chu Zihang would inevitably be severely punished. It was Professor Schneider who helped him suppress it. Now that Schneider said that he had no problem with this SS-level mission, then it was definitely no problem. The only reason was that he had to bring Lu Mingfei with him. The reason behind this was obvious. Schneider was worried that Chu Zihang would make things too exaggerated again, so he found a girl with a clean resume to help take some of the blame.
Professor Schneider was a bit evil. As a mentor, he would be more biased towards his students. Besides, suppressing Lu Mingfei was not a bad thing. The first time she made a mistake, he would just give her a verbal education. Didn't she have an ambiguous relationship with Chu Zihang for a year? All of Kassel knew about it. A girlfriend always had to be the woman who helped her boyfriend's career behind his back. Schneider was intentionally bringing them together.
The whole world is assisting the two protagonists, but they seem to be unaware of it. The summer vacation is almost over, and Chu Zihang has not even taken the initiative to contact Lu Mingfei once, and Lu Mingfei has not run to her senior brother's house to hang out.
The reason why Chu Zihang didn't do this was simple. If there was nothing to be told, he might not open his contacts for several years. Don't think that the previous invitation to college dinner was very thoughtful, it was all a misunderstanding. He lost his father on the night of the rain, so of course he would remember everything about that night very clearly. The extra care he gave to Lu Mingfei was just out of friendship for saving his life. To get this expressionless man to open the Ren and Du meridians called love, he probably had to summon a little goblin to pry open his wooden head.
As for Lu Mingfei, besides being embarrassed to bother her, she was also lazy and busy this summer. When she wanted to sleep, she would sleep for a long time. When she woke up, she would study with Samson seriously. The rest of the time she would just play games and eat. She really had no time for romance.
The distance between two people is like a distant red thread. Although they won't get together soon, they always remember each other. Time is the best catalyst.
"Norma has booked flight UA836 for you and Lu Mingfei, which will fly directly to Chicago tomorrow night. There will also be a freshman from China who will travel with you. You should at least maintain some necessary social interaction. It is not a good thing to keep a cold distance from everyone and rely on yourself. With your grades, you are destined to do great things in the future. There has never been a lone hero in history." Schneider said seriously.
"Okay." Chu Zihang's answer was a bit perfunctory. It is not so easy to change a person's character. When he was a child, he was stubborn and arrogant. If he wanted to fight with others, he would practice ten thousand times until he defeated the opponent. He would never run home and tell his parents that someone hit me.
This has been even more so since that rainy night. To this day, my mother still thinks that the man named Chu Tianjiao is a bastard who ran away. There were many times when Chu Zihang hesitated whether to tell my mother about him. Several times, his fingers were about to touch her secretly sobbing shoulders, but he finally took them back.
The secrets of the dragon clan are not something that ordinary people should be exposed to. My mother has no bloodline, and knowing those things that will impact her worldview will only add to her troubles. What kind of person is Chu Tianjiao? As long as his son remembers him, it is enough. He is a hidden hero who only became truly awesome at the end. The name of a hero never needs too much respect.
After hanging up the phone, Chu Zihang pushed open the door of the closet. In the corner lay a black extended tennis bag. He unzipped the zipper, and the knife handle wrapped in black shark skin was tightly against the racket. He held the knife handle, and the knife was unsheathed an inch. Iron-blue light splashed out, and a cold breath quickly went up along his wrist.
The sacred sword Murasame is said to be a sword that will naturally ooze out spring rain to wash away the blood after killing someone. Someone used alchemical methods to forge this blade that does not exist in reality, and enshrined it in a shrine for ten years to nourish its evil spirit.
This is the equipment that Chu Zihang will always keep with him. It is the only thing his father left him, and it is also the thing he needs most. He will pick up this bag at any time and set out on the journey to follow Odin, until he personally uses Murasame to cut off the god's head.
When he was about to go out, he was stopped by someone. His mother sat up from the sofa with sleepy eyes, rubbed her eyes and asked him why he didn't ask Lu Mingfei to come to our house to play when the summer vacation was almost over.
Chu Zihang was stunned and said, "Mom, do you like Lu Mingfei very much?"
The mother thought to herself, "Son, I don't like the person you like!" She said, "Yes, she's a good girl, pretty and kind-hearted. Isn't that what you want from a girl?" Boys should remember to take care of girls. Only when you are nice to them will they be willing to get in touch with you.
Chu Zihang nodded and said, "I understand. In fact, I went out to find her because I wanted to communicate something with her."
Mom's eyes lit up, she jumped up, pushed his shoulders and pushed him out, saying, "Why don't you go away? Why are you dawdling here? It would be best if you could bring her back for dinner in the evening!"
Chu Zihang thought that Lu Mingfei was really good at socializing. She came during the New Year and already charmed her mother so much that she kept thinking about her. This summer, she asked herself many times where Lu Mingfei was and why she didn't go to find her.
This is almost the norm for the elites in Kassel . Dragon blood has a special hidden charm for ordinary people. Once the bloodline is awakened, ordinary people will become more and more dazzling in the crowd.
Thinking back to Lu Mingfei's increasingly high reputation in Kassel over the past year, Chu Zihang couldn't help but sigh that girls change a lot when they grow up. Once a girl gets serious, the rapid changes in her are far more surprising than those in boys. It is probably difficult for people at Shilan Middle School to imagine that the girl with the rustic braids and big black frames back then has now become a girl who can wear a short skirt, high heels, a big smile, and sparkling earrings, and is covered in blingbling.
At Sophie Lade's Pizza, a taxi stopped in front of the main entrance hallway.
Lu Mingfei looked up at the pizza restaurant which was quite famous locally. Her long hair was as shiny as silk and had tiny curls on the ends. She wore a white sleeveless lace shirt, a high-waisted black pleated A-line skirt, and a small off-white crossbody bag. Not satisfied with her slim waist and long legs, she wore Roman shoes with three-inch heels. Her slender silver earrings refracted the sunlight and dazzled passers-by. Her style was somewhere between a mature college student and someone about to enter society.
When she first went out, she considered becoming a lolita, but after thinking it over, it was too flashy, and it was like showing off to her former classmates. This move would naturally make her lose face. The smartest way to show off is not to let everyone know that you are doing something. It's like a girl going to her bestie's wedding with a very low-cut dress, very thin waist, very high heels, it's obvious that she is trying to steal the limelight because she has a grudge against the bride, and everyone will look at her twice.
So before leaving, she changed her appearance again and chose to be a model female college student in the summer, defeating her opponents with her everyday style, which was the demeanor that a master should have.
