Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei Returns from the Black Myth

Chapter 43 Bet
"I have a mission for the academy tomorrow, so let's do it another day." Lu Mingfei typed on his phone and sent a reply text message to Ling.

"Okay." Ling Miao replied very straightforwardly, "I'll talk to you when you come back. Be careful."

After seeing Ling's reply, Lu Mingfei raised his eyebrows in surprise. Didn't expect this ice-sculpture-like girl to take the initiative to say words of concern for others? Moreover, as a freshman, she was not surprised to participate in the tasks carried out by the academy.

Lu Mingfei had a vague feeling that this blonde Russian girl who took the initiative to talk to him was not a simple person. The tone of her voice when she spoke to him always gave him the feeling that they had known each other for many years.

"Hey." Finkel noticed the content on Lu Mingfei's phone. With his mouth full of pork elbow, he came closer with a curious and smirking look on his face. "Has our little Sheng hooked up with a high-quality girl from Kassel right after school started? How does she look? How's her figure? Is her name 'Zero'? What a weird name."

Lu Mingfei expressionlessly pushed back Finger who was leaning towards him, "What kind of hookup? Get out of the way. Unlike you, I'm not interested in love affairs."

Just then, Norma's voice came over the radio in the restaurant:
"Please note, first-year students, the first-level Magical Mechanical Design course originally scheduled for tomorrow morning has been cancelled. Professor Rundstedt will email the first chapter's lecture notes to your email boxes."

"Is Professor Rundstedt going on a mission again?" Finkel was gnawing on a pork elbow and seemed to know very well the reason why the course was cancelled.

Seeing this, Lu Mingfei narrowed his eyes slightly, "Brother, it seems you know a lot."

Hearing this, Finkel showed a smug expression on his face, "Of course not, I not only know that Professor Rundstedt will go on a mission tomorrow, but I also know that you, Junior Brother Xiaosheng, will be no exception."

"You know a lot, Brother Finkel. I think you are just like the clairvoyant and the wise man. You have connections everywhere in Kassel Academy and know all kinds of confidential information." Lu Mingfei joked and continued to eat mashed potatoes.

"Hehe." After being praised by Lu Mingfei, Finger scratched his head a little embarrassedly, "Well, Junior Brother Xiaosheng, after all, the Kuimen Project is related to Norton, the King of Bronze and Fire. This is an extremely powerful noble first-generation species. Do you have confidence? Do you need me to provide you with any help?"

"You're not following me to the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River, so what kind of help can you provide?" Lu Mingfei glanced at Finkel suspiciously.

"That's hard to say." Finkel bit off a large piece of meat from the pig's trotter fiercely. "Don't forget, I'm an expert in the field of information. Buried under the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River is a bronze palace built by Norton himself. The complexity of its alchemical mechanical structure is probably far beyond human imagination."

"So, you can explore the bronze palace thoroughly?" Lu Mingfei said, and did not ask Finkel why he knew that there was a palace of the Dragon King buried under the Yangtze River.

"That's a bit exaggerated. However, I am fully capable of obtaining the latest information on the scene. I can even be your eyes, Little Saint Junior Brother, and help you guide the way forward."

"Then I'll wait and see." Lu Mingfei said calmly.

"What? Lu Mingfei isn't here?"

The next morning, Caesar and Chu Zihang stood in front of the dormitory door. In front of them was Finkel, who looked surprised.

"Yes, he's not here." Facing Caesar's questioning, Finkel just shrugged nonchalantly and glanced at the sheathed Murasame in Chu Zihang's hand. "Why are you looking for him? To avenge the day of freedom?"

Caesar shook his head and swung the Bugatti Veyron keys in his hand. "What revenge? Losing is losing, and both of us lost with conviction. We came here today just to give Lu Mingfei the bet we made before the day of freedom."

Chu Zihang also nodded slightly, agreeing with Caesar's statement, "That's right. We all lost to him, and the bet should be given to him." He and Caesar knew that Lu Mingfei had to take the 3E exam yesterday, so they came to Lu Mingfei's dormitory today with the bet.

Hearing this, Finkel nodded in sudden realization and said excitedly:
"Oh, I see. Then my junior brother must have made a fortune. Murasame, a Bugatti Veyron, and Norton Hall, how cool!"

Seeing Fenger's smug look, Caesar and Chu Zihang twitched their lips at the same time. This is for Lu Mingfei, but from the looks of you, it's no different from giving it to you.
"So, could you please tell us where Lu Mingfei is now?" Chu Zihang asked solemnly, looking like he wanted to see Lu Mingfei.

Finkel hesitated for a while before explaining to the two:

"Junior brother is no longer in the academy. He is on a mission."

"On a mission?" Caesar opened his eyes wide in surprise. He didn't expect that Lu Mingfei would be ordered around by the executive department just one day after entering school.

Of course, what Caesar could not have imagined was that not only was Lu Mingfei himself asked to participate in the execution of the mission, he even obtained the highest executor authority specially approved by Principal Angers himself, and the entire executive department had no right to issue execution orders to him.

Chu Zihang's eyes also showed a strange color. After a whole day of thinking, he finally remembered who this Lu Mingfei was - he had seen the poor kid squatting in the corner at Shilan High School, who made him feel the loneliness of "Blood Sorrow".

Unexpectedly, after many years, the once poor kid has transformed into a powerful being far beyond himself. Not only does he possess powerful martial arts, he easily defeated him and Caesar with a stick. As an S-level, he seems to have gained the high trust and attention of the academy. Not long after entering school, he participated in the execution of tasks.

Such an existence is exactly the powerful existence that Chu Zihang longs for.

"Then please give this Murasame to Lu Mingfei for me, thank you." Chu Zihang said in a deep voice, and presented the sheathed Murasame to Finkel with both hands.

However, to their surprise, Finkel pushed the Murasame back to Chu Zihang, shook his head and said:
"From the looks of you, you want to meet my junior brother in person and talk to him. In that case, when he returns from his mission, give him your bets."

So, Caesar and Chu Zihang looked at each other, nodded to Finkel, and turned and left.

"They arrived really fast." Finkel muttered as he looked at the two men's backs, "President of the Lionheart Society, by the way, my junior brother probably won't like fighting with your Japanese sword!" He raised his voice and spoke to Chu Zihang in the distance.

Chu Zihang turned his head and glanced at Finkel. Recalling Lu Mingfei's ultimate stick technique, he felt that there was nothing wrong with what this F-level senior said.

"What level of mission do you think that S-level person will be carrying out?" Caesar asked after leaving the dormitory building.

Chu Zihang shook his head. "I don't know. We may know after he returns from his mission."

"Yes."

The two did not notice that they both subconsciously believed that Lu Mingfei would be able to perfectly complete those dangerous dragon-related tasks and then return in style.
