Volume 2 Hello, Xia Mi Chapter 176: Embracing the World with Warmth (VIII)
"Go away." Lu Mingfei whispered.
"Didn't we reconcile? Your attitude suddenly becomes so bad again." Lu Mingze smiled gently, "When you were about to die, when you were most sad, when you were under the dark water, when didn't your dearest sister come out to arrange everything for you? It would be fine if you didn't thank me properly, but now you don't even look at me kindly. No matter how thick-skinned I am, if I really run away one day because of my temper, you will never see me again."
"Then you can run away. Xia Mi will erase my memory. When I wake up, I will be lying on the bed in the hotel and know nothing. This way, she and her brother will at least live well where no one will disturb them."
"Come on, you two have become enemies, best friends are turning their swords against each other, and you are still thinking about helping her? Have you figured out your situation? If she really wants to play with you, she will knock you out with one punch, and after you fall, Esther will become Fenrir's food. This is the price of your kindness. If Kassel Academy knew what you did, at least they would charge you with treason. You will kneel in the history book of dragon slayers for the rest of your life like the statue of Qin Hui. Everyone in the book says that S-rank Lu Mingfei is a traitor."
Lu Mingze smiled evilly, "But the other way around is different. Hug me and activate your dragon bone state , so you can catch up with Jörmungandr. But that's not enough. Although she is the weakest of the four monarchs, she still has Fenrir behind her. If he gets serious, he will even tear up the Nibelungen and bury the entire city outside. You can't always have a free lunch. With a quarter of your life, I will help you deal with the King of the Earth and the Mountain. You can leave with Esther, and she will tell the half-blood world about your deeds. Then you will be a hero with three dragon kings' lives in your hands. The world will praise your great achievements and be proud of you. How dazzling will you be then?"
Lu Mingfei slowly raised her head and turned to look at Lu Mingze. This little Lolita who made faces was really cute, but every time she appeared, it meant that something unusual was about to happen. She said that she wanted the dragon bones of the four monarchs, so the price must be the death of the eight dragon kings.
"You don't understand at all." Lu Mingfei said softly.
"What do you not understand?"
"I'm a very selfish person who only cares about what I want. If the world is about to end one day and the only way to save the earth is to kill my lover, even if there are thousands of guns pointed at me, I will choose to let him go, and then we will be shot into sieves together, lying in a pool of blood and watching the world usher in the end." Lu Mingfei said, "I really don't have many friends, just a few. Old Tang is dead, and I don't want to see the same script again. I know that Xia Mi still has some attachment to my senior brother, but she really taught me seriously and encouraged me to confess. I only have this one good girlfriend who can be salty or sweet. Even if she becomes the Dragon King and chooses to leave me, it is her own business. I just hope to say goodbye properly."
“Even if they might hurt more people in the future in their pursuit of power?”
"What does that have to do with me? Yes, it's great to be a dragon-slaying hero, but I'm not a hero, and I don't want to be one. What's the use of the cheers of the crowd to me? Behind the worship and admiration is the power I exchanged my life with you. I killed my friends one by one and sat on the throne, but when I look back, no one who knows me will talk to me anymore. That's not the real me. The real me is just an ordinary girl who is trying to grow up in order to get the favor of a male god. I hope I will be happy, and I hope that everyone around me will be happy. Life is already difficult enough, why do I have to fill so many obstacles?"
Lu Mingze looked at Lu Mingfei and smiled faintly: "You didn't grow up in a good environment, but your wish is as pure as the fairy-tale princess in the castle. The result of standing under the swaying windmill and praying for peace is that you are used as a pawn by the real villains and eaten up, and in the end, not even a bone is left."
"I don't care. When I was a kid watching Ultraman, I would sometimes identify myself with the monsters that were defeated. Destruction is the meaning of my existence. I like to use my power to bombard and enjoy the bang bang sound of explosions. But this is wrong in the eyes of another group of people, so they will fly fighter planes and even transform into Ultraman to defeat me." Lu Mingfei turned her head and looked at Jörmungandr, "Sometimes I think I am a born bad guy."
"It sounds like you are the kind of villain who will do whatever you want if you really get the power." Lu Mingze reached out and touched Lu Mingfei's head. She was clearly the younger sister, but she was so skilled as if she had done this many times. "It doesn't matter. I'm a bad person too. We are all bad people. Bad people should do whatever they want. Who cares about justice and evil? It's good that we didn't hurt those innocent people. We can save the world at the cost of our lives, but who says we have an obligation to do so? We are also children with our own ideas. We want to fill our small house with our favorite toys."
"Are you willing to help me?" Lu Mingfei's tone was somewhat pleading, but the current situation was indeed something she could not do. Lu Mingze's tone sounded a little relaxed.
"My goal will never change, the Dragon Bone Cross of the Eight Monarchs. I know Samson is by your side, and she has the power of Constantine and Norton, even if I have already obtained two. Taking her as an example, if you can come up with a reasonable solution for me, I can not kill the King of Earth and Mountain, but I still have to get their Dragon Bone Cross, and the soul transaction with you will continue. I am omnipotent, and I can give you all the words and power you can think of, but it won't be for free." Lu Mingze finally spoke.
"You are much cuter than my round little brother. It turns out that a younger sister is better than a younger brother." Lu Mingfei smiled exhaustedly. In fact, she almost fainted at one point. She simply relied on her belief to insist on talking to Lu Mingze until now, because she knew that once she fell asleep, Lu Mingze would be able to take over her body and complete the task of slaying the dragon.
"It's a pity that I can't always be with you. Maybe in the future I can give you a sweet girl who will always be around you and call you sister. You can treat her as me." Lu Mingze gently held Lu Mingfei's fingertips that were about to fall, "Make a wish."
"I want... the power to change my bloodline!"
This wish was so grand that in the completely still time, Lu Mingze felt as if a dark storm had suddenly swept across the world, making people feel cold and terrified.
She probably didn't know what she was talking about. Throughout history, countless dragons and humans had fought each other for the sake of evolving their bloodlines. Countless hybrids had become dead. Even a dragon king like Jörmungandr had to make careful plans to get close to Odin and seek that almost slim method. In the world of dragons, the words "power to change bloodlines" were equivalent to the scepter in the hands of an emperor that could command the world. It was easy to organize an entire army that obeyed orders.
Lu Mingze smiled slowly, and the Gothic Lolita's expression gradually became ferocious, just like the descendants of vampire earls hiding in the ancient castle, with vaguely visible gloomy fangs and ferocious bloodthirsty desire.
What a bold wish! So greedy that even Lu Mingze had to marvel at it. Although they were two people who were similar in many ways, they were completely different in some ways. Cinderella was smarter than the loser and thought of a way to solve the problem once and for all.
"Remember what I said. Throughout history, there are only three people in this world who can forcibly change the bloodline of others: the Black Emperor, the White Emperor, and... me. Only I can make your wish come true!" Lu Mingze gently pressed his hand against Lu Mingfei's forehead, opened his small arms and hugged her tightly, as if he wanted to put his sister into his heart. "But you are too greedy. This kind of power is not something you can easily control. You can only control the downgrade, but you cannot command the leap, and you cannot use it completely. But I think this is enough for you to realize your idea, right?"
"Yeah." Lu Mingfei closed her eyes.
"Praise the awakening of our king, destruction is rebirth." Lu Mingze said softly.
The hymn from the ancient times has traveled through the wilderness of bones for thousands of years and resounds again in the Nibelung. The Black Emperor once used it to command the dragons to submit. The vast ice field is filled with hymns chanted for the ancient emperor.
The golden pupils suddenly lit up, and then closed into slits like a cat's eyes encountering strong light, instantly catching the trace of its prey, and then opened again.
Lu Mingfei stretched out her hand and grasped Jörmungandr's wrist, exerting force suddenly, and the wrist bone broke with a series of crackling sounds. Jörmungandr screamed in pain and tried to pull her hand away, but Lu Mingfei's strength at this moment was greater than hers, and she held her hand tightly.
"Fenrir!" Jörmungandr had no choice but to call for help without following any moral code. She never said she wanted to duel Lu Mingfei alone, she just wanted to have fun. If she couldn't win, the beautiful girl would of course cheat.
The black dragon spread its wings, roared and hissed, its scales bulged, and the storm blew the little monsters against the wall. Esther was not spared, her head was hit hard and her vision went black.
Fenrir rushed out, his huge golden eyes flowing with changing light, and every step shook the huge space like an earthquake. This was not due to his huge body, but unconsciously letting his own great power overflow, because he heard a hint of fear in his sister's call, which meant that she might be seriously injured, which Fenrir could not tolerate. The dragon has a reverse scale, and touching it means death. No matter what the reason, Lu Mingfei will not leave Nibelung alive today.
He slapped the ground hard, and the rock collapsed instantly. The rapidly expanding crack stretched for hundreds of meters. The ground spun and turned over, and gravel flew everywhere at a speed comparable to that of a bullet. The crack pointed extremely accurately at the feet of Lu Mingfei.
Lu Mingfei had no choice but to let go of Xia Mi and jump back to avoid it. Every time she touched the ground on her toes, the crack would quickly turn to track her direction, forcing her to touch the ground for less than half a second each time. But now she had a speed that could rival Jörmungandr's. She ran around at high speed to induce the cracks, just like flying on the grass in martial arts novels. She quickly completed a perfect polygon. When the last crack connected with the first crack, the ground collapsed, revealing a bottomless darkness, and Fenrir's attack finally ended.
Fenrir slid behind Jörmungandr, raising dust all over the sky. Jörmungandr blew away the gray fog, and the two sides confronted each other across a huge crack. The self-repair ability of the Nibelungen was activated , and it began to repair slowly. The flying stones and debris rolled back and filled their original positions, as if time was reversed, but such large-scale destruction still needed time.
Lu Mingze wiped the blood off Lu Mingfei's body. The little devil was indeed omnipotent. Even with just a simple towel, he could even create the miracle of taking a bath in his dream. All the wounds on her body were repaired in the dodging just now. The highly activated cells completed the growth that would take several weeks in such a short time. The fractures were not an obstacle because of the dragon bone state that was healed instantly, because the dragon bones were more numerous and tougher.
If Chu Zihang saw this scene, he would think it was a blood explosion, but Lu Mingfei knew very well that this was different from her senior brother's method. Her embrace with Lu Mingze was like a new life. After experiencing the high-speed movement just now, her heart still beat slowly, as if it was just an extremely ordinary walk for her. The world became exceptionally clear in her eyes, and the same was true for sounds. Now she could even observe the flow of elements around her directly with her vision, just like the dragon monarchs, instead of the special colors like the skylight. As long as she stretched out her hand gently, she could grasp the elements that were not noticeable to the naked eye in her palm and prevent them from running around.
"What on earth are you?" Jörmungandr was shocked. She knew that Lu Mingfei had used Skylight, but she didn't care because she knew that the user of this word spirit had long been dead. Even if it appeared in a human, it was just a coincidence of some bloodline evolution. After all, there must be a reason why Cassel rated Lu Mingfei as S-level. Based on her understanding of Lu Mingfei so far, only this word spirit could make her rise to this position.
But now she had to admit that she had made a mistake, a mistake so big that it might cost her her life to make up for it.
"I'm a..." Lu Mingfei was silent for a few seconds, then laughed at herself, "A monster, anyway, since I was a kid I've often had visions of things, like clips from some movies, which often came true later. I didn't tell anyone else because I knew other people couldn't do it. This hasn't happened since I entered Kassel Academy, but I haven't forgotten that I'm different from others, but I'd rather not have this kind of thing, it makes me feel like an outlier."
