Lu Mingfei doesn’t want to be a superhero

The Gaotingen family clan is deep in a room.

Looking at the armor with glimmering light flowing in front of him, and every part from the helmet to the leg armor inlaid with various gorgeous gems, Lu Mingfei was a little confused: "King? Is this the strongest alchemy armor of the Gaotinggen family?"

"In fact, it should be said to be one of the most powerful alchemy armors. The power of the 'Queen' is not inferior to that of the 'King', but the emphasis is different. Generally speaking, the contemporary patriarch will inherit one armor from two pieces. , the male patriarch succeeds to the king, and the female patriarch succeeds to the queen.”

The old patriarch said: "It's a shame to say that for many years, the Gaotingen family has relied on the reputation of its ancestors and the protection of the Kingdom's knights. For several generations, the word 'king' or 'queen' has not been used, including me. Xia Lotte is the only one among the recent generations of clan leaders who has used the 'Queen', but unfortunately this child is still too young to exert the true power of that alchemical treasure."

Lu Mingfei was still a little confused: "Why are you showing me this? You can't give it to me, right? Or are you planning to let me study it?"

Lu Mingfei thought it should be the latter. After all, no matter how he thought about it, he would not let the Gaotinggen family give one of the most precious secrets to him after saving a clan leader. Instead, he would study it for himself and use the alchemy technology contained in it. It makes more sense as a thank you gift.

But to Lu Mingfei's surprise, the old patriarch shook his head: "Although I can't give it to you, Mr. Lu, I can make the decision and lend it to you. As long as it's not damaged, you can study it at will."

"Lend it to me? Why?" Lu Mingfei was even more puzzled.

"Now the Secret Party is in a precarious stage. I can give Mr. Lu a boost and help you and the principal stabilize the overall situation. It is not only a thank you, but also a protection for the Gaotingen family. After all, the family is also part of the Secret Party. If the Secret Party suffers a heavy blow, , it will not do any good to the family." The old patriarch said.

"Precarious?" Lu Mingfei nodded, "It seems Charlotte has told you that there is an undercover dragon in the secret party."

"Hmm..." The old patriarch nodded, with a look of sadness on his face, "I really didn't expect that the Secret Party, as a dragon-slaying organization that has lasted for more than two thousand years, would be infiltrated by dragons unknowingly..."

Dragons are not infiltrated only in modern times. The Secret Party was infiltrated by dragons two thousand years ago. Lu Mingfei’s heart is not clear.

"As for this 'King'," the old patriarch looked at Lu Mingfei, "I make the decision. Mr. Lu can keep it until the secret party is safe, and until you feel there is no need to use it anymore, then return it to the Gaotingen family. "

Then I think I can return it to you now. This thing is of no use to me at all. Lu Mingfei complained in his heart.

It’s not that he looked down on the Gao Tinggen family’s most powerful weapon, but he had seen Charlotte use the Queen in the Yangtze River and observed it at close range, so he had a general idea of ​​the power of this set of alchemy armor—and the old patriarch just said it himself. , the power gap between the king and the queen is not big.

Although Charlotte did not maximize the queen's performance, Yilu Mingfei observed that even if the queen was fully utilized by Charlotte, the power of the queen would at most be the level of fighting a three-generation breed single-handedly, and most likely she would not be able to win in the end. of.

The king's power is about the same as that of the queen. The bonus to his strength cannot be said to be quite limited, it can only be said to be better than nothing.

Of course, if this kind of alchemical armor is driven by the Philosopher's Stone, its power will be greatly improved - the problem is that using this kind of resource that can only be extracted from the souls of advanced dragons as fuel to burn is already a problem in itself. It's a waste of natural resources.

The same amount of Philosopher's Stone given to Lu Mingfei can be used more than ten times more efficiently than as fuel for alchemical armor.

Apart from anything else, Tony's, even the second-generation Mark armor, is probably stronger in overall combat effectiveness than this abstract alchemical armor - although the defensive power and melee destructive power of this set of alchemical armor are both higher than those of the second-generation. Mark Armor, but the Mark Armor not only has thermal weapons, but it can also fly at speeds comparable to fighter jets.

"Old Patriarch," Lu Mingfei shook his head, "I accept your wishes, but you also know that I am from the equipment department of the college. I am quite good at playing with thermal weapons, and I can't help but knock on any good things I see. Yes, although it won’t be damaged, it will be bad if it is not kept intact and your hands are itchy and you accidentally move it somewhere.”

"It doesn't matter, the Gaotinggen family has never been complacent. Every piece of alchemy armor in the family has been continuously maintained, perfected and improved by successive family heads before it can achieve its current power," the old patriarch said, "With Mr. Lu's alchemy skills level, I am willing to optimize it, I wish for it."

"That is to say, do you have any objection if I slightly improve this armor?" Lu Mingfei raised an eyebrow.

"Of course not!" The old patriarch waved his hand angrily, "Since I lent it to Mr. Lu, before Mr. Lu returns it, as long as it is not damaged, you can make any changes you want!"

"That's no problem. Don't worry, I promise to give you a new set of armor that's stronger than ever before!" Lu Mingfei said.

…

In the afternoon, in the study of the old patriarch.

"Grandpa! Why did you give the 'king' to Lu Mingfei?" Charlotte shook her grandfather's arm.

"What? You can't use that one anyway. You use the 'Queen'. Now is a special period. Grandpa lends the 'King' to people who can use it. Even if the patriarchs of the past generations know about it, they will not object. "The old patriarch said with a smile.

"But, but..." Charlotte wrinkled her nose, "The armor used by other people is called 'Queen', and the armor used by Lu Mingfei is called 'King'. Isn't this a bit... strange?"

"What's weird? It's just the name of the armor, it doesn't mean anything." The old patriarch looked at his granddaughter with a smile, "Or is it you, girl, who is thinking about it?"

"Me! What can I think?!" Charlotte's face turned red instantly, "A-level bloodlines and S-level bloodlines cannot be combined, and it is easy to give birth to high-risk offspring. The application for union cannot be approved, what can I think! And Lu Mingfei also He already has a girlfriend, although his girlfriend is also A-level..."

Looking at his red-faced granddaughter, who was staring down at the tips of her shoes and barely squirming around, the old patriarch couldn't help but remain silent.

Granddaughter, grandpa didn’t know you could think so far ahead...

After blushing for a while, Charlotte realized that what she just said seemed a little wrong, and she quickly raised her head: "No! I didn't mean that I have feelings for Lu Mingfei or that kind of thinking. We are just good friends. That’s all, grandpa, don’t get me wrong.”

Old patriarch:...

After a few seconds of silence, the old patriarch said: "Charlotte, are you old enough to go to college?"

"Well," Charlotte nodded, "calculating my age, I should go to college tomorrow."

"Before, because of my injury, I had no choice but to let you take over the family in advance. Even when I went to school, I had to invite the teacher to my home," the old patriarch said. "Now that grandpa's body has recovered, you can feel more relaxed. How about it?" , do you want to go to university?"

"Go to college? Go to Cassel College?" Charlotte asked.

"Of course, which school can a mixed race go to?" the old patriarch said with a smile.

Going to Kassel Academy? Will I be able to see Lu Mingfei more often? This thought came to Charlotte's mind subconsciously.

Immediately she felt her face getting hot.

"How's it going? Charlotte, do you want to go?" the old patriarch asked.

"Yes!" Charlotte nodded without hesitation.

…

Two days later, at the gate of the Gaotingen family clan.

Lu Mingfei stood next to the black car waiting for him. He looked at the slim girl Charlotte beside him, and then at Old Tang who was standing half a step behind the old patriarch opposite him. He always felt that this scene was weird.

what is this?

I brought Old Tang to Charlotte's house from the college, but when I left, I left Old Tang here to study and took Charlotte back to the college?

Am I exchanging the old patriarch’s apprentice for the old patriarch’s granddaughter?

There seems to be something wrong with this account...

Lu Mingfei couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

"Junior brother, you have to study hard with grandpa!" Charlotte stood next to Lu Mingfei and said to Old Tang behind grandpa.

Although Old Tang worshiped the old patriarch as his disciple, after all, in the Gaotinggen family, besides the old patriarch, the only one left is Charlotte. If he is calculated in terms of apprenticeship, he is the son of the old patriarch, equivalent to Charlotte, the heir. It didn't feel good to be a generation older, so after some discussion, Old Tang and Charlotte called her senior sister, which meant they were of the same generation as her.

After all, if it doesn't work that way, he is Charlotte's elder, and Fei Ge is Charlotte's friend, so isn't he suspected of taking advantage of Fei Ge?

"Don't worry, Senior Sister, Brother Fei, after I finish studying this month's courses with Master, I will come back to the academy to find you." Old Tang said.

"Old Tang, work hard." Lu Mingfei also warned him, but when he said this, his mind was full of complaints and he was also a little curious - he didn't know that he could see what was happening in the outside world. Norton, what would you think of Old Tang becoming a disciple?

"Don't worry, Brother Fei, I'm working very hard," Old Tang said with his hands on his hips. "The day before yesterday, my master taught me something called, uh... the Path of the Fire Sword or something. I need to understand something like the source of essence. I I practiced till late at night the day before yesterday and yesterday, and then I woke up this morning and worked harder, and I have already understood the sixth sefirah. Master said that as long as you understand the seven sefirot, you have mastered it. I am not good at brother Fei, just It took less than three days to complete the first course.”

In the sea of ​​consciousness that no one was paying attention to, the restrained Norton let out an earth-shattering roar: "Waste! You waste! It took you three days to learn such a simple thing! You have embarrassed me! Give me King, come in! I want to train you personally! Come in! Do you hear me! Ah——"

Lu Mingfei from the outside nodded at Old Tang's progress and expressed satisfaction: "Not bad, keep up the good work."

Old Tang nodded, gave a thumbs up, and showed his big white teeth: "Okay, Brother Fei!"

Charlotte on the side blinked in confusion. She looked at Old Tang first, then at Lu Mingfei, and then she was relieved - it was okay. She only understood the seven essences in three days. It was not an exaggeration at all. There were people around her. A monster that can understand seven essences in one day. In comparison, Old Tang's performance is too normal, too normal...

What a ghost!

How can I understand the metamorphosis of the seven sefirot in three days? ! Are you a relative of Lu Mingfei? Is your family’s genius bloodline inherited like this?

Charlotte felt so tired and weak all over. If conditions didn't allow it, she would have wanted to lean on Lu Mingfei to support her body.

At the same time, she also understood why her grandfather stood at the door from the beginning to the end, with a confused and dull look on his face, and did not say a word for a long time. This was obviously due to the influence of Lu Mingfei's fire sword that she had taught him. The same excitement on the road.

At this moment, Charlotte actually felt like her grandfather was in the same boat.

…

At night, in the Gaotingen family.

Old Tang, who had understood the seven sefirot, was lying on the bed.

Because he has to study with his master, his work and rest must be more regular recently, which is not much different from when he was in school.

However, he had been staying up late the past two days to understand the essence. Although he went to bed early today, he was a little unable to sleep because of the habits of the past two days.

So Old Tang simply closed his eyes and tried to enter his own sea of ​​consciousness just like before, and then communicate with Norton.

As soon as he entered the dark sea of ​​consciousness, Old Tang saw Norton, who was bound under a giant net, staring at him with a pair of eyes that wanted to chew him up and then spit it out mixed with phlegm.

Isn't it? It's been so many days and your anger still hasn't gone away? He is worthy of being the Dragon King, but he is very angry... Old Tang complained in his heart.

"Hi~ Good evening, brother Norton?" Old Tang shrank his neck and greeted Norton, or in other words, in a friendly way.

Norton stared at Old Tang without saying a word, only a pair of golden eyes burning brightly in the darkness.

Old Tang felt a little nervous when he was stared at by Norton: "Brother Norton, if everything is okay, I will go out to sleep first? I will come to see you next time..."

As he spoke, Old Tang's figure began to slowly fade.

"Wait a minute," Norton said suddenly, "modify the seal so that I can directly talk to you in the outside world."

Old Tang was stunned for a moment, wondering why Norton was suddenly willing to communicate with him.

As for modifying the seal, this was originally a technique taught to him by Brother Fei. It could open up the gaps in the seal to a certain extent and allow Norton to do more things and have more influence on him - after all, if not, he would have the need. There was no way to borrow strength from Norton at that time.

Of course, in order to avoid Old Tang making a mistake or being deceived by Norton, Lu Mingfei told him that there was a limit to how to release the seal, lest Old Tang accidentally open the seal completely, and that would be the end of it.

Allowing Norton to contact Old Tang from his mind anytime and anywhere is also a technique to release the seal. However, Norton completely refused to communicate with Old Tang before, so Old Tang did not do this.

Now that Norton had taken the initiative to bring it up, it meant that he was at least willing to communicate with him. Old Tang naturally had no reason to refuse and quickly opened the seal to Norton to have permission to talk to him directly.

However, after opening the permission, Norton ignored him again. No matter how old Tang tried to talk, Norton seemed to treat him as if he didn't exist.

Not daring to annoy Norton too much, Old Tang hesitated for a moment, took the initiative to withdraw from the sea of ​​consciousness, lay down for a while, and gradually fell asleep.

Early the next morning, the maid with a sweet voice knocked on the door and woke up Old Tang. Old Tang, like a few days ago, experienced the luxurious life of being washed by the maid, then dressed neatly and walked into his "classroom" ——That is, in the short black building where Lu Mingfei and Charlotte learned alchemy.

Just a few minutes after Old Tang arrived, the old patriarch came and officially started today's lecture.

It was only then that Old Tang vaguely understood why Norton wanted to have permission to open the conversation himself.

While the old patriarch was lecturing, Norton was also roaring in Old Tang's head. Every time the old patriarch spoke, Norton would yell, and each sentence was more unpleasant than the last, and they were all aimed at the old patriarch.

"Idiot! What are you talking about!"

"Stupid hybrid, the most brainless Deadpool under my command knows alchemy better than you!"

"That doesn't make any sense! How did you combine these sounds into one sentence? Can you understand what you are saying?!"

"Are you talking about alchemy? I thought some clown who was not afraid of death was trying to please me with nonsense!"

"The human side of me! I can't bear it anymore and point out the mistake of that hybrid! That mistake that even Deadpool wouldn't make! Quick! Quick! Quick!" Norton continued to roar in Old Tang's mind.

Old Tang:......

Old Tang, who was yelled at by Norton until his whole brain was buzzing, had no choice but to raise his hand and interrupt the old patriarch who was explaining a basic alchemy matrix: "Master?"

"What's wrong?" The old patriarch looked at Old Tang and said kindly.

"The student just had a sudden idea that this alchemy matrix might be modified like this." Old Tang picked up a pencil and followed Norton's instructions to add a few more lines and symbols, then crossed out most of the lines and painted He blacked out most of the symbols and tentatively asked the old patriarch, "Do you think this is better?"

Staring at the alchemical matrix that had been changed beyond recognition on the scroll, the old patriarch thought for a moment and then fell into silence and sluggishness.
