Lu Mingfei doesn’t want to be a superhero

Early morning, Norton Hall, second floor.

Lu Mingfei, Su Xiaoqiang and Ling opened their eyes and woke up almost at the same time - of course, in their respective bedroom beds.

…

Lu Mingfei has been in a bad mood recently.

In his dreams every night recently, he was with Su Xiaoqiang, and almost every time he was doing that kind of thing - the reason why he said that was almost because in one dream, he and Su Xiaoqiang were just dating, kissing and talking. They were just talking about disgusting love, and they didn’t do anything like usual, but there was no doubt that this was not a pure friendship between a man and a woman.

He now wondered if he had held back too much during his adolescence, which was why he vented his emotions in his dreams every day.

Is it true that being single for a long time will lead to mental illness? It shouldn’t be. Some people have been single since birth. Isn’t it normal to be single for more than 20 or even 30 years?

Or...do I really have bad thoughts about my good brother?

No, it's probably because the little goddess has been doing some strange things lately.

But having said that, the little goddess seems to be getting more and more beautiful recently, and the clothes she wears at home seem to be more and more... bold. Sometimes my heart beats faster just looking at her.

While thinking about it, Lu Mingfei rubbed his hair and walked out of the bedroom.

…

Su Xiaoqiang is in a good mood recently.

If you want to talk about the reason... She often has sweet dreams recently. Although the content of the dream is a bit embarrassing, she is not disgusted with it.

But there was one thing that bothered her. Lately at night, she felt like she had become a little impulsive and had difficulty controlling herself. She always had the urge to tease Lu Mingfei.

Although she has tried her best to control herself, she can't control it every time - the only good news is that except for the time when she fed Lu Mingfei breakfast in the kitchen a few days ago, she couldn't control it every time. Didn't get hit by Zero.

While patting his chest to rejoice, Su Xiaoqiang walked out of the bedroom.

…

Zero has been in a bad mood lately.

She has nightmares every day, and although the scene in the dream is different every time, the characters and "themes" in the dream never change——

Lu Mingfei and Su Xiaoqiang were in front of her, but she could only watch from the sidelines, unable to do anything.

There was even one time when she was between Lu Mingfei and Su Xiaoqiang...

Zero got up from the bed and recalled his experience in that dream. The arms holding the bear doll unconsciously exerted force, and the bear was almost strangled in the middle.

Sometimes people cannot control their actions in dreams. This is not uncommon, but generally speaking, such dreams are quickly forgotten after waking up and do not leave a deep impression on people.

But Zero's recent dream was different - not only was she unable to control herself, she even remembered it clearly after waking up, as clearly as the memory left behind after experiencing it personally, and she couldn't forget it even if she wanted to.

After having nightmares three times in a row, Zero even decided not to sleep at night and just kept going. However, when it was time to go to bed, she felt inexplicably sleepy and fell asleep uncontrollably.

Therefore, although there was no lack of sleep in the past few days, Zero's mind felt particularly tired - she even wondered if she had any psychological problems, otherwise why would she have these weird dreams in succession.

Dragging heavy steps, Zero opened the bedroom door.

…

On the second floor of Norton Hall, three bedroom doors opened at the same time. Lu Mingfei, Su Xiaoqiang and Ling came out and looked at each other.

"What a coincidence, little goddess, Ling, you guys wake up at this time too?" Lu Mingfei was a little surprised.

"I should ask this," Su Xiaoqiang glanced sideways at Lu Mingfei, "Usually Ling and I get up early to cook for you, and you don't wake up until the meal is ready. Why are you getting up so early recently when you have nothing to do? Give it to us Are the two under pressure?"

"No way," Lu Mingfei scratched his head, not daring to look into Su Xiaoqiang's eyes, "I woke up early because I had a strange dream."

"Is this a nightmare? Tell me, are you being chased by zombies, evil spirits or the like in your dreams?" Su Xiaoqiang looked expectant.

"It would be great if they were really zombies and evil spirits. I would kill them one by one," Lu Mingfei complained. "What I dreamed about... should be said to be beautiful women."

"Beauty?" Su Xiaoqiang looked Lu Mingfei up and down and raised his eyebrows, "How beautiful can she be? Is she as beautiful as me?"

By chance, it's you. Lu Mingfei complained in his heart.

"Hmm... I think he's on par with you." Lu Mingfei said honestly.

Su Xiaoqiang narrowed his eyes slightly, and when he was about to ask, he noticed that Ling seemed a little lethargic. His calm but clear eyes in the past seemed a bit dim. If they lived in the world of anime, Ling might not have the same eyes now. Highlighted.

"Ling? What's wrong with you? Are you sick?" Su Xiaoqiang quickly put the back of his hand on Ling's forehead.

"I'm fine," Zero shook his head, "I haven't slept well recently."

"How could this be? Ling, haven't your sleep quality always been very good?" As Ling's roommate, Su Xiaoqiang has a strong say in this aspect.

"Because I always have nightmares." He also suspected that he had psychological problems, but he didn't say this.

"Having nightmares..." Su Xiaoqiang first thought, then smiled evilly, "Is it because you are not used to sleeping separately with my roommate? That's why you started to have nightmares."

"I used to sleep alone." Zero rejected this guess.

"Maybe your habits have changed?" Su Xiaoqiang smiled and touched Ling's head, "Would you like to try sleeping with me tonight? Maybe someone will be with you, so you won't have nightmares. .”

Zero was silent, or thought for a few seconds, and then his dim eyes lit up slightly: "It makes sense."

"Great! I have a 'zero pillow' tonight!" Su Xiaoqiang chuckled, "Then I'll help you get the pillow to my room."

Ling grabbed Su Xiaoqiang and shook his head: "No, I want to sleep with Lu Mingfei tonight."

Lu Mingfei:? ! !

Su Xiaoqiang:! ! ?

…

In the Lion Heart Club office, Chu Zihang sat upright on the sofa to maintain Murasame. He dipped the finest silk into the knife oil produced by the equipment department and carefully wiped the electric-shaped creases on Murasame's knife. Hamon is called "Inazuma" in Japan, which means "thunder that streaks across the sky", and lightning is called "Inamitsu".

However, Murasame has nothing to do with thunder and lightning. Although it is a very advanced alchemical weapon, Chu Zihang has used it so far. Apart from feeling that Murasame is sharp and tough enough, he has not discovered that Murasame has any particularly powerful or magical abilities. At best, it can only be regarded as having a strange characteristic - if it is wielded for a long time, dew will condense on the knife, and each swing of the knife will be like splashing rain.

This is a characteristic of the "Demon Sword Murasame" mentioned in "The Legend of the Eight Dogs Minami Sosato Satomi". It is said that after this sword kills someone, dewdrops will automatically condense on the blade to clean the blood on the knife, hence the name "Murasame".

However, Chu Zihang knew very well that Murasame was actually a fiction. The dew condensed on the sword was an attribute of some alchemical swords, and the dew came from the moisture in the air.

This water is not enough to completely clean off the remaining blood on the knife after the war. Especially Deadpool's blood is more viscous and corrosive than ordinary creatures, so Chu Zihang still needs to maintain Murasame regularly, so it can be said that this knife has no Any useful special abilities.

But this is not important to Chu Zihang. As a sword, Murasame is top-notch in terms of sharpness, toughness and center of gravity. This is enough.

Moreover, this is his father's relic, and he has no plans to replace it at the moment.

Chu Zihang was taking good care of Murasame, and Su Qian, the president's assistant, was behind the president's desk handling various documents.

This has been the case since Chu Zihang became the president. Most affairs of the Lion Heart Club are handled conscientiously by Su Qian, the secretary of the president. Chu Zihang rarely makes decisions as the president. Most of the time he They are all busy exercising, studying, and doing those A-level tasks that even the elites in the executive department have a headache.

Fortunately, Vice President Lancelot and President Assistant Susie are both aboveboard and upright people. If one of these two people is a traitor, Chu Zihang, the president, will be ignored.

Of course, Chu Zihang himself didn't care at all about whether or not he could stand up.

There was a knock on the door. Chu Zihang's actions of caring for Murasame were not affected at all. He lowered his head and continued methodically. Susie behind the desk raised her head: "Who?"

"It's me, senior sister." Lu Mingfei's voice came from outside.

Chu Zihang paused in polishing Murasame's knife and looked up at the office door: "Come in."

Lu Mingfei pushed open the door and entered.

"Huh? Junior brother, you are such a busy person, why do you have time to come to us?" Su Qian teased Lu Mingfei with a smile.

Because he has been busy with the equipment department recently, and there are often female members of the Beowulf family wandering around the school, Lu Mingfei is afraid of being caught, so he rarely goes outside the equipment department, and has never been to the Lionheart Club headquarters.

"Uh..." Lu Mingfei was a little embarrassed, "Senior Sister, I'm actually here to see Senior Brother."

Susie:......

"I understand, it turns out I'm the redundant one," Susie covered half of her face and looked sad, "Then I'm leaving~"

"Senior sister, don't make trouble," Lu Mingfei said helplessly, "I have something serious to say to senior brother."

"That's right," Susie nodded, "Then you guys talk first. I've been processing documents for a long time and I have to buy a cup of coffee to relax. I'll bring you one by the way. What do you want?"

"Caramel cappuccino."

"Hot milk."

"OK." Su Qian closed the door and walked out of the office - since Lu Mingfei specifically stated that he had business with Chu Zihang, it meant that she was not suitable to hear about it, so Su Qian thoughtfully chose to avoid it.

…

Inside Chu Zihang's office.

"That's probably it, so the principal and the Beowulf clan leader decided to investigate dangerous bloodlines and suspicious elements in the whole school," Lu Mingfei said, "Anyway, senior brother, please pay attention recently. Your bloodline is very high, and you may also be listed as a suspect. list, and may even have been sneaked onto the list.”

There was no other reason for him to come to Chu Zihang this time. The main reason was because the principal, the Beowulf clan leader, and even the entire school board were conducting a rigorous investigation into the possible undercover dragons in the college, and even planned to Use this to clean up the secret agents sent by other organizations.

It is inevitable that someone will be affected by this, so Lu Mingfei specially came to remind Chu Zihang to keep a low profile recently and not to be investigated because of his high bloodline.

And he didn't have to explain the whole story to Chu Zihang. Chu Zihang was present when the dragons attacked the Elder Council, so he was considered both a party and a victim.

As for whether Chu Zihang was a hidden dragon... Lu Mingfei had no evidence, but he felt it wasn't the case.

And even if we look at it from another angle, Senior Brother Chu is indeed a hidden dragon. As long as Senior Brother Chu doesn't do anything to him and the people he cares about, he won't do anything to Senior Brother Chu - Old Tang is still the Dragon King, and he won't help him anyway. Tang?

"I understand," Chu Zihang nodded, "I will go out less and socialize less recently, and I will not take on tasks."

"Senior brother, do you really need to cut down on socializing? Why do I feel like you don't socialize at all?" Lu Mingfei complained.

Chu Zihang was silent.

After a while, Chu Zihang changed the subject: "Can you please do me a favor?"

"Whether you want to help or not, senior brother, you are too polite. If you need anything, just say it!" Lu Mingfei said.

"Do you have any tips on becoming stronger?" Chu Zihang asked seriously, "I need strength, even if it costs me something."

"Why?" Lu Mingfei was a little confused, "Senior brother, you are very strong now."

"It's far from enough," Chu Zihang shook his head, his eyes calm and firm, "It's far from what I want to do."

Lu Mingfei originally wanted to ask the reason, but looking at Chu Zihang's eyes, he sighed: "Even if I ask what it is, senior brother, you won't tell me, right?"

"This is very dangerous." Chu Zihang said.

This counts as rejection.

"Forget it, I won't ask. Just tell me when you want to say something," Lu Mingfei said. "As for becoming stronger...there are many ways, but the one with the least cost and the most immediate results should be..."

His eyes moved down and fell on Murasame in Chu Zihang's hand: "Senior brother, lend me the knife for two days, and then I will exchange it for you with a plus version."

Chu Zihang handed Murasumi to Lu Mingfei without hesitation.

…

In the underground base of the Equipment Department, in Lu Mingfei's private laboratory.

Lu Mingfei was a little surprised when he stroked Murasame's wet blade.

He originally planned to help Senior Brother Chu upgrade Murasame and add a powerful alchemy matrix, but after checking, he discovered that Murasame actually already had a strong alchemy matrix, but Senior Brother Chu could not use it because the conditions did not match - Murasame Inside is the matching weapon matrix of the Beowulf family's forbidden art, the Dark Killing Balrog Sword.

Anyone who has the Dark Killing Enma Sword engraved in his body can use Murasame to unleash terrifying destructive power.

But to others, the knife has no special abilities.

"It shouldn't be. The weapon with the Dark Killing Flame Demon Sword engraved on it should only be circulated within the Beowulf family. But the Beowulf family are all Europeans. What Japanese swords are used..." Lu Mingfei groped his chin, " Could it be that the matrix of the Ming Slayer Flame Demon Sword was leaked? Then who was the former owner of this sword..."

Although there were many questions that he couldn't figure out, there was at least one thing that Lu Mingfei was sure of - if he wanted to make Senior Brother Chu stronger quickly, he would just have to tattoo a matrix of the Dark Killing Flame Demon Sword on him.

No, to be precise, we should first improve the core matrix of the Mingsha Flame Demon Sword, and then inscribe it on Senior Brother Chu...

That's not right. Senior Brother Chu's Yanling is Jun Yan, and it actually has something in common with the Mingsha Yanmo Sword. It would be best not to simply improve the Mingsha Yanmo Sword, but to transform it into a prototype based on the Mingsha Yanmo Sword. Set up a special matrix that can be integrated with Junyan, even throw away the redundant functions, and make it into a "Fire Demon Sword" to fully strengthen and exert the power of Junyan. If you specialize in one place, the power will be even stronger...

But there is another problem - carving a forbidden magic matrix requires a lot of Philosopher's Stones, and Lu Mingfei does not have so many Philosopher's Stones.

And even if he wants to be greedy in the equipment department, it will be difficult to find so many. Although the school board has always been willing to bleed when approving funds for the equipment department, the philosopher's stone cannot be obtained with money. This is a big family How could he reveal his background and trump cards so easily...

etc!

Lu Mingfei's eyes lit up - isn't Charlotte's family an alchemy family? There must be a lot of Philosopher’s Stones!

As long as he cures Charlotte's grandfather, it shouldn't be difficult to get a few Philosopher's Stones.

Although the improved version of the Extremis virus will take time, using the regeneration cradle technology, it can be done immediately. He was reluctant to take out the regeneration cradle before to avoid trouble, but now...

Firstly, the strengthening plan he formulated for Senior Brother Chu required the Philosopher's Stone, and secondly...

When the Senate was attacked, he could feel Charlotte's care and protection for him many times. In the end, Charlotte even fell out with school director Frost for him. Lu Mingfei was also a conscientious person. After this incident and their previous interactions, he already regarded Charlotte as a friend, so he was willing to believe that Charlotte would help him keep secrets.

As for whether Charlotte's grandfather will keep it secret... give him an injection of anesthesia in advance, push the regenerative cradle, and then push it out after the treatment, so as to eliminate the problem from the root.

As for the fact that the anesthesia in the regeneration cradle was ineffective...it was actually him and Helen Zhao who deceived Fury, because at that time they just needed a fully awake experimental subject to record data.
