Lu Mingfei doesn’t want to be a superhero

Chapter 347 Nibelung Helheim

An airport in a small city in southern China.

Lu Mingfei, Su Xiaoqiang, Xia Mi and Chu Zihang came out one after another. Within a few days, Xia Mi and Su Xiaoqiang quickly became familiar with each other, even walking side by side.

However, Su Xiaoqiang occasionally couldn't help but look at Xia Mi and then at Chu Zihang - her intuition told her that there was something wrong with these two people.

But it’s not between Senior Brother Chu and Senior Sister Su...

Although Senior Brother Chu said that he knew Xia Mi when he was in Shilan Middle School, that was in junior high school. He and Senior Sister Su met in college...

The more Su Xiaoqiang thought about it, the weirder she felt, but in this situation, she couldn't ask more questions - after all, Xia Mi didn't show any intention of getting used to Chu Zihang, and Chu Zihang didn't show any very special attitude towards Xia Mi. .

Of course, she pays special attention to Xia Mi and Chu Zihang, not entirely because of her own gossip mentality, but also partly because of Senior Sister Su's entrustment to her——

After arriving at the Capital Airport, Su Qian, who lived in the north, could only get on the plane home alone. Before leaving, Senior Sister Su gave Su Xiaoqiang a look.

She didn't say it explicitly, but due to the tacit understanding between the girls, Su Xiaoqiang was convinced that Senior Sister Su asked her to help find out what was going on between Junior Sister Xia Mi and Senior Brother Chu.

"What are you thinking about?" Lu Mingfei waved his hand in front of Su Xiaoqiang and asked coquettishly, "You're not still thinking about the final exam, are you?"

"Who wants to take the exam? Isn't it easy for me to pass the exam?" Su Xiaoqiang snorted.

"Are you just asking for a passing grade?" Lu Mingfei complained.

"Are school exams really difficult?" Xia Mi asked curiously.

However, she kept looking at Su Xiaoqiang while speaking and didn't dare to look at Lu Mingfei.

"It's okay. I think it's average. The teachers set the questions very well and won't let students who study hard fail the exam," Lu Mingfei said. "The exception is Magic Mechanical Design. Professor Mance and It’s like he has a grudge against the students.”

"Ah... Then I might as well not take this course." Xia Mi shrank his neck.

"Modong Mechanical Design is a very practical course, whether it is logistics..."

Before Chu Zihang finished speaking, Xia Mi interrupted: "Whether it's logistics or front-line personnel, it is recommended to take elective courses, right? Senior brother, you have already said it once, but please be considerate of me, junior sister. Does the young and beautiful girl look like she is suitable for studying science and engineering?”

Chu Zihang's eyes showed a hint of illogical confusion: "Is there any relationship between a beautiful girl and someone who is not suitable for science and engineering?"

Xia Mi held his forehead.

Perhaps realizing that what he said was problematic, Chu Zihang added: "If you have taken this elective course and have difficulty learning it, you can ask me. I did pretty well in my Magic Machinery course."

"Really? How many points does a senior brother usually get in the exam?" Xia Mi's eyes lit up.

"Full marks." Chu Zihang said.

"I can never talk to top students like you." Xia Mi stuck out his tongue.

Su Xiaoqiang nodded in agreement.

Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time.

…

After being separated from the other three people, Lu Mingfei returned to his home—to be precise, the large villa "lent" to him by Uncle Su.

Then he realized that his house had been unoccupied for the entire semester, so everything from the floor to the furniture had been covered in dust.

Lu Mingfei scratched his head and was about to call for housekeeping service when his cell phone suddenly rang. The caller was Su Xiaoqiang who had just separated.

Lu Mingfei answered the phone, and Su Xiaoqiang's voice came: "Hello? Lu Mingfei, is your house covered with a layer of soil? I called housekeeping service for you, you pay for it yourself, no need to thank me."

Without waiting for Lu Mingfei's answer, Su Xiaoqiang followed closely: "By the way, do you have time tomorrow to come to my house? My parents said it's rare for us two to come back from vacation. We want to have a meal together as a family." Let’s have dinner together.”

"Family dinner? Me together?" Lu Mingfei was stunned.

"You don't want to come?" Su Xiaoqiang asked, her voice rising.

"What time will you arrive tomorrow?" Lu Mingfei asked immediately.

"At six o'clock in the evening, the driver Uncle Li will pick you up." Su Xiaoqiang said.

"No problem." Lu Mingfei said.

"Before you come, remember to tidy yourself up and change into a nicer hairstyle and clothes. You don't need to bring gifts. My parents don't need anything," Su Xiaoqiang warned, "Forget it, it doesn't feel good to be empty-handed? How about you Just buy some cigarettes, alcohol, etc. I think everyone in my family brings these as gifts to my dad...but my dad wants to quit smoking..."

"Is it necessary to go to such trouble? This is not the first time I have dinner with my uncle and aunt." Lu Mingfei complained.

"Shut up! Listen to me this time!" Su Xiaoqiang said forcefully.

"It's like the boyfriend meeting his father-in-law and mother-in-law in the TV series..." Lu Mingfei complained softly.

Su Xiaoqiang was suddenly silent.

After about ten seconds, she threatened: "Anyway, dress more formally tomorrow and don't be late, otherwise you will bear the consequences!"

"Yes!" Lu Mingfei saluted at the phone.

…

After the housekeeping staff hired by Su Xiaoqiang cleaned the house and left, Lu Mingfei originally planned to take a rest, but the phone suddenly rang. The caller this time was Senior Brother Chu.

"Hello, Senior Brother Chu? What's wrong?" Lu Mingfei answered the phone and asked.

The person on the other end of the phone was silent for about two seconds before Chu Zihang said, "I'm confused about something and want to discuss it with you."

Lu Mingfei suddenly became energetic: "Tell me about the things that even you, Senior Brother Chu, are confused about!"

Chu Zihang seemed to take a deep breath before asking: "How does it feel to have a crush on a girl?"

Lu Mingfei almost threw his phone away.

"Excited?! Senior brother, why are you asking this!" Lu Mingfei suddenly felt as if he had been a giant panda for twenty years and was asked by an antelope, "Brother, what does it feel like to eat meat?"

Brother Antelope, is it possible that both of us are actually vegetarians?

"Because I'm a little confused about this matter," Chu Zihang said, "You have been used to Chen Wenwen before, so you should know how it feels to be attracted to a girl."

For a moment, Lu Mingfei felt as if he had been insulted.

"No, that's not a heartbeat... Okay, I admit that it might be a heartbeat, but it's different..." Lu Mingfei covered his face, "In short, Senior Brother Chu, we are not talking about the same kind of heartbeat!"

"Wait a minute," Lu Mingfei suddenly reacted, "Senior brother, who are you attracted to? Senior sister Su or Xia Mi?"

Chu Zihang was silent for a while before speaking eloquently: "Susie and I have always been friends and colleagues. I can sense that she has a special attitude towards me, but I don't have that kind of thoughts."

"That's...Xia Mi?" The corners of Lu Mingfei's eyes twitched.

Chu Zihang was silent for a long time.

Lu Mingfei covered his face.

"Mom is looking for me. Let's talk next time. Goodbye." Chu Zihang hung up the phone.

Lu Mingfei put down the phone, turned to look at the window, his eyes became cold: "Come out."

Xia Mi hung upside down from the eaves, opened Lu Mingfei's window, and floated down like a slender willow leaf.

"You're so perceptive. How did you discover me?" Xia Mi raised his eyebrows and said, "My power is to control force. I shouldn't have made a single sound just now."

Lu Mingfei shrugged and motioned for Xia Mi to sit down.

Xia Mi sat on the sofa, holding one arm on the armrest, and looked at Lu Mingfei. His beautiful human eyes had been replaced by golden ones as blazing as the sun: "Are you really a mixed race?"

Lu Mingfei did not answer Xia Mi. At first, he did think that he was a mixed race with a high bloodline, but now, he is a little unsure.

Although his strongest strength now does not come from his bloodline, the power provided by his bloodline is indeed no longer at the level of a hybrid, and it is far from reaching the limit of his bloodline.

"Forget it, you won't say it anyway," Xia Mi said, "No matter who you are, at least we are not enemies now, right?"

"Then it depends on whether you are willing to cooperate," Lu Mingfei also stared at Xia Mi, "Do you remember the conditions we reached in school?"

"If you don't expose me, I will tell you everything I can tell you." Xia Mi said through gritted teeth.

This is a typical unequal treaty.

Lu Mingfei said that he would not expose her, so that she could continue to pretend to be a hybrid. It seemed to be a very valuable condition, but the problem was that she had no means or methods to ensure that Lu Mingfei would not break the contract.

If Lu Mingfei regrets, betrays the agreement, and exposes her, Lu Mingfei will not suffer any loss.

But for her, she could not regret telling Lu Mingfei the valuable information she knew. When Lu Mingfei betrayed her, she would not be able to make Lu Mingfei forget the information she had told him.

After all, given the circumstances at the time, she seemed to have no choice but to agree to any treaty no matter how unequal it was.

But this doesn't mean that she can't resist Lu Mingfei at all. For example, when it comes to telling Lu Mingfei information, she can... lie!

As the smartest Dragon King, Xia Mi is very confident in his ability to make up stories and lies. Moreover, before coming to her, he had already concocted a set of half-truths and half-false information with almost no logical problems. It was impossible for Lu Mingfei to rely on Use logical analysis to determine whether she is lying.

But to Xia Mi's surprise, Lu Mingfei neither started to ask questions immediately nor asked a meaningless question like "Are you lying to me?" with a suspicious face. Instead, he raised his hand and The long sword that made her feel extremely dangerous before was "pulled out" out of thin air.

Could it be that he found out that I was going to lie to him, so he took action? It doesn't make sense, I haven't said anything yet, how could he find out?

Just when Xia Mi almost jumped up, Lu Mingfei raised his sword and handed it to Xia Mi: "Here, take it."

Xia Mi was stunned, not knowing what kind of medicine Lu Mingfei bought in the gourd.

There is no claim for ownership of alchemical weapons. As long as the bloodline is strong enough, even if the weapon is made by Norton, if it falls into the hands of others, it will still be activated and used to kill Norton, the maker - of course, being able to be activated is one thing. If you use it to fight Norton, there is a high chance that Norton will come back and take advantage of the weapon's own weaknesses to regain it.

Xia Mi carefully took the silver sword from Lu Mingfei.

She had vaguely felt the terror of this alchemical weapon before. Now that she had the artifact in hand, how about sneaking it into Lu Mingfei while the distance was close enough?

This idea flashed through Xia Mi's mind, and she threw it away immediately - although theoretically, even Norton would be injured or even killed by the alchemy weapon he made as long as the sneak attack was unexpected, but Since Lu Mingfei dared to hand over the weapon to her, he must have taken precautions.

Lu Mingfei didn't take any precautions, because the Silver Oak Sword could almost be regarded as a part of his body, and with the teleportation power of the Space Gem, as long as he wanted, no matter who held the sword, it would immediately return to his body, and if the Silver Oak Sword was used to attack him, the sword would naturally merge into his body.

And the reason why he gave the sword to Xia Mi was because after absorbing the power of the Mind Gem, the Silver Oak Sword had a unique application form for its power - lie detection.

"In order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, I'll say it straight. This sword has the function of lie detection. You hold it in your hand and answer my questions. If the yellow light on the sword lights up, it means that you have the subjective intention to lie and deceive me," Lu Mingfei crossed his hands and blocked his chin, "You know the consequences, right?"

Although strong mental power can interfere with the lie detection results, he had tested it with Norton before. Even with Norton's mental power, which was second only to Constantine among the Dragon Kings, it was basically impossible to interfere with the lie detection results. Xia Mi, whose mental power was far inferior to Norton, was completely impossible to resist.

It's a pity that the power of the Mind Gem in the Silver Oak Sword is not strong enough, otherwise he would use the power of the Mind Gem to control Xia Mi like Loki's scepter, and he was afraid that she would not cooperate?

Xia Mi, who didn't know what Lu Mingfei was regretting, looked down at the sword in her hand, then looked at Lu Mingfei, with a trace of suspicion in her eyes.

She had never heard of any alchemical weapon with such a bizarre ability as lie detection, even Norton and Constantine couldn't do it, right?

"In addition, I need to emphasize that it tests whether you have the subjective intention to lie and deceive me. Deliberately misleading me by telling only half the truth is also a lie, which will be detected," Lu Mingfei said, "If you don't believe it, we can try it."

"Let's try it." Xia Mi snorted.

"How old are you this year?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"Seventeen-year-old youthful and invincible beautiful girl!" Xia Mi said unhappily.

"Buzz--" The Silver Oak Sword hummed, and burst into a dazzling bright yellow light rain like fireworks, and even Xia Mi was dazzled by the sudden light.

"I forgot to say that the more the lie deviates from the truth, the stronger the reaction of this sword will be," Lu Mingfei snapped his fingers, and the light of the Silver Oak Sword converged. He teased Xia Mi, "Judging from the reaction just now, this should be considered a big lie."

"How do I know if this light is controlled by you?" Xia Mi questioned.

"It's simple. Let me prove it by asking another question that I can't know. For example... How often do you wash your hair when you use your human identity?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"I wash it every day." Xia Mi said without hesitation.

The Silver Oak Sword lit up with a yellow light like a light bulb.

"When I'm not busy, I wash it every day." Xia Mi changed her words.

The yellow light weakened, but it still existed.

"I will wash it before going out." Xia Mi changed her words again.

The yellow light weakened again, but there was still a breath.

"I will wash it before going out, but I won't wash it if I can wear a hat." Xia Mi said with a dark face.

The yellow light was completely extinguished.

"You should believe it now, right?" Lu Mingfei said, "You are a dragon, why do you care about personal hygiene like a human girl?"

"This is a necessary cover-up to disguise as a human." Xia Mi said.

The sword lit up again.

"Are dragons not allowed to be clean?" Xia Mi gritted her teeth.

The yellow light on the sword went out.

"Do you believe it now?" Lu Mingfei asked again.

"I believe it, what do you want to ask?!" Xia Mi glared at Lu Mingfei with gritted teeth.

Half-blood? You are a hairy half-blood! You must be the descendant of the White King. Only the White King who controls the spiritual elements can create a lie detector that works on the Dragon King!

I knew the White King was not dead!

"First of all, Norton said that after your rebellion against the Black King, you, Jörmungandr, took the opportunity to take away a very important legacy," Lu Mingfei stared into Xia Mi's eyes, "What is that legacy?"

After hesitating for a moment, Xia Mi said frankly: "A legion, probably the strongest army in the world now."

The sword had no reaction, proving that she was not lying.

"A legion? Tell me in detail." Lu Mingfei said.

"You should know Norse mythology, it is indeed the closest to the history of dragons in your human mythology. Although there are still countless fallacies, one thing is correct," Xia Mi said, "Do you know the underworld 'Helheim' that symbolizes the land of the dead in the nine realms of Norse mythology?"

Lu Mingfei nodded and motioned Xia Mi to continue.

"Norse mythology says that at the twilight of the gods, Hela, the queen of the "Land of the Dead" with a body that is half human and half corpse, will stand on a large ship made of dead nails, and the ship will be full of frost giants and the army of the dead to attack the land of the living."

"Helheim is real, but it is not the land of the dead, but the land of the dead, and it is also the largest Nibelung in the world," Xia Mi said faintly, "and the so-called 'legacy' I took away is the coordinates of Helheim and the army of dead in it."
