Lu Mingfei, why are you slaying dragons if you're not involved!

Chapter 142 A dragon is no ordinary creature; it soars to the heavens on thunder! The Fastest Legend (5K)

"Lu Mingfei?"

Schneider paused for a moment; the name sounded somewhat familiar.

As the head of the executive department at Kassel College, he was responsible for guiding the handling of various sudden hybrid incidents from around the world every day, mostly requiring him to make three choices: "kill," "bomb," or "kill first, then bomb." This necessitated access to a vast amount of information, and the fact that some of these information still sounded familiar to him...

He quickly recalled seeing the news on the campus forum. A future freshman who had already caused a stir at Kassel College even before enrolling.

"An S-class student who did not enroll?"

“That’s right, ‘our’ S-class.”

Zhang Shanfeng nodded slightly, emphasizing the word "we".

"You should know why I want this exchange student status."

"As an exchange student, you are not under the command of the Secret Party and have the right to refuse all missions."

Schneider said, "This is the best protection for him. But I'm curious... even though he's an extremely rare S-class, is it worth it? You can choose not to take advantage of him, but it's normal to gain huge benefits, yet you chose to give it up."

"We place more emphasis on long-term interests."

Zhang Shanfeng said casually that what he really meant was that "the Secret Party is short-sighted." The astute Schneider naturally understood and nodded in complete agreement.

"I need to contact Principal Angers to get confirmation."

"Let's go eat then. The formal negotiation is over, and I personally prefer to discuss the details of the cooperation over dinner."

Zhang Shanfeng stood up. "If Principal Angers agrees to my conditions and the cooperation goes smoothly, how many people are expected in your action team, and when will they arrive?"

"Not too many. The Secret Party is conflicted about this. On the one hand, they feel embarrassed that they have been set up, but on the other hand, they still want to cover up the scandal and worry that if they take too big a step, others will become curious and dig into the past."

Schneider sneered, "If it weren't for Principal Angers' strong push, this matter would have ended when you first rejected us."

Regarding timing, if an agreement can be reached today, the entire team should arrive the day after tomorrow, as one person lives a bit further away.

"Because of one person?"

Zhang Shanfeng was somewhat surprised. "Who is worth waiting for like this? Your ace? It can't be Caesar Gattuso, can it?"

"Impossible! He is the future heir of the Gattuso family. How could the most powerful mixed-race family in the Secret Service allow its heir to participate in such a dangerous event?"

Schneider shook his head.

“That man was one of the ‘one and a half’ who returned from that mission… For a long time before, I thought his heart was dead and he could only be considered half a man. But now it seems that the same thing is still supporting him and me.”

"Who?"

"Fingal."

Schneider said slowly.

"Finger von Frings".

"I think I vaguely remember him..."

Zhang Shanfeng raised an eyebrow.

"Is that a paparazzi?"

……

As bystanders, the students of Shilan Secondary School have recently experienced the legendary "happy troubles".

This was the first time they had ever felt this way—there were so many scandals, and each one was bigger than the last!

Normally, a big piece of gossip is enough for people to talk about for days or even a week, eventually evolving into a "legend".

But these kinds of big scandals are happening every day now. Often, before the discussion about the previous one has even died down, the next one comes right after!
Can't finish it, can't finish it at all.

Even so, the frequency of these bombshell revelations hasn't slowed down; on the contrary, it seems to be escalating... For example, today at noon, another pinned, featured, and highlighted post popped up—

[Road God's official announcement suspected!]

If you come across this post and see the title "The fewer the words, the bigger the issue," how could you not click on it?

The "news post" from Shilan Secondary School focuses on a headline that, while somewhat sensational, is by no means clickbait. Unlike typical journalists, if they were to use clickbait, their posts would be easily overshadowed by real-life events…

Anyway, the afternoon exam is math, so reviewing is basically useless. Two hours of lunch break, and taking a 20-minute nap is enough. The rest of the time can be spent eating melons without any problem!

With this in mind, most people clicked on it.

The post was published by the same person who had previously analyzed the situation and concluded that "Liu Miaomiao had the biggest advantage." The content was quite simple: a photo of Lu Mingfei and Liu Miaomiao sitting side by side on the artificial turf of the track and field stadium, without any captions, leaving plenty of room for imagination.

"Holy crap, Lu Shen is awesome! He's being all lovey-dovey with that pretty piano player in broad daylight. Doesn't he fear being arrested by the headmaster?"

"Upstairs, I saw the head of student affairs walk by but then leave—attached image."

"Even more awesome!"

"What kind of discrimination is this? I protest!"

"What's the point of protesting? Where's Queen Zero? Help her! I can't stand seeing Lu Shen so carefree, I want to see rivers of blood!"

"I saw Queen Zero get into a Bentley and leave earlier; I guess she had something important to do. Speaking of which, could Queen Zero really be a member of the Russian royal family?"

"Whether it is or not, it's a Bentley, a Bentley! Lu Shen deserves to die, this scoundrel should be executed!"

"Seconded", "Seconded"...

After a series of "seconded" responses, someone finally chimed in with a timid question: "Um, am I the only one curious about Little Fairy? Not taking any action in this situation is unlike her!"

A certain Mr. Chu, who had just finished lunch and had an icy, expressionless face, scrolled to this comment and recalled the latest news he had learned from his mother's group of girlfriends.

The little fairy certainly took action, and cleverly seized the most important and appropriate part.

Just tonight!

……

Under Lu Mingfei's action plan, which was comparable to "I think this will work," the arrangement of the song "The True Meaning of Fire," which he hastily named "Nightmare," was completed very quickly.

Talented people can always be unreasonable, because reason exists within them. And now, two people representing the "ultimate" level of musical talent are sitting together here.

If Lu Mingfei hadn't lacked systematic pronunciation training, his pitch would often be off. Plus, Liu Miaomiao would often drift off... the entire arrangement process might have been much faster.

In any case, just before the lunch break was about to end, the complete score of the piano piece "Nightmare" was finally presented on the manuscript paper.

"Is this the piece you and Senior Brother Chu are going to play together?"

On the way back to the classroom, Liu Miaomiao asked curiously.

"correct."

Lu Mingfei took out his phone, took a picture, and sent it to Chu Zihang.

"The piano and cello duet needs a slight arrangement of the score... but we don't know anything about the cello, so of course we'll leave this to him."

As he spoke, he added a note to prevent any accidents: "Stop immediately and come find me if there are any unusual reactions during the process." Then he waved the sheet music in his hand and winked at Liu Miaomiao.

"However, I'll accept the complete manuscript. This is the first version; it can be used as a relic in the future!"

"What kind of relic..."

Liu Miaomiao still couldn't handle Lu Mingfei's rambling nonsense, and just as she was about to laugh wryly, she suddenly froze.

They turned a corner and arrived in front of the teaching building. Students came and went, their eyes occasionally glancing at them, but Liu Miaomiao could now ignore them.

However, someone whom Liu Miaomiao deliberately avoided thinking about and didn't want to see happened to walk in front of the teaching building, and they bumped into each other like that.

zero.

No more than ten meters away, his gaze, which was completely unwavering and seemed frozen for millennia, swept over her. Though seemingly indifferent, it sent a chill down Liu Miaomiao's spine.

Lu Mingfei didn't notice Liu Miaomiao's stiffness; he simply smiled and walked over quite naturally.

With her vision obstructed, Liu Miaomiao finally regained her mobility. She gritted her teeth, took a step forward to catch up, and mentally cheered herself on—"Cheer up, Liu Miaomiao…you're not that much worse, don't embarrass yourself!"

"Are you done with everything?"

Lu Mingfei asked curiously.

"Busy working."

Zero looked at him, answered calmly, and then asked, "Is the composition finished?"

"Huh? How did you know we were composing music?"

Lu Mingfei muttered something, then waved the sheet music in his hand, a little smug. "Of course it's finished!" "Can I see it?"

Ling glanced at the sheet music, but this time she didn't ask Lu Mingfei. Her gaze shifted and landed on Liu Miaomiao, who had finally caught up.

"Liu Miaomiao?"

Her tone was incredibly natural, brimming with confidence that Lu Mingfei wouldn't refuse, leaving only the other participant, Liu Miaomiao, in the conversation.

To be honest, Liu Miaomiao really wanted to refuse.

But that feeling of "a shiver in my heart" came again. The flame of confidence that had been painstakingly built up by the "golden opportunity to steal the base" was instantly swallowed up under the gaze that seemed to be "extremely cold"!
"Okay...okay," she whispered in agreement.

"Thank you." Ling thanked him politely and took the sheet music from Lu Mingfei.

Her confidence was proven.

She didn't ask Lu Mingfei, and Lu Mingfei just let it go... How natural and tacit!
A pang of sadness welled up in Liu Miaomiao's heart again, thinking that someone had just said they wanted to collect it...

But soon, she found another way to comfort herself—there was still Su Xiaoqiang at the bottom!

When the three arrived at the classroom, the exam was about to start, and the proctor was already there, having even prepared the exam papers and answer sheets.

Just as they took their seats, the exam bell rang.

[Warning: An exam schedule has been detected. Please execute the schedule immediately...]

When the exam paper was handed out, before Lu Mingfei could even read the contents clearly, semi-transparent characters appeared before his eyes.

[Time has been automatically allocated based on the difficulty of the test and your knowledge level. Countdown: 12 minutes...]

"Eh?"

Lu Mingfei rubbed his eyes, wondering if he had misread it... There must be a missing zero, right?
Twelve minutes?! What the hell?!
But the schedule showed absolutely no intention of being corrected. And so the countdown began!

Without time to figure out what was going on, Lu Mingfei could only begin.

He filled in his name and examination number as quickly as possible, picked up a 2B pencil, and focused his attention on the multiple-choice questions on the test paper.

For the first question, five seconds were spent reading the question; zero seconds were spent calculating.
Answer complete.

The first signs are emerging.

Lu Mingfei seemed to understand why the schedule allocated so little time.

The assessment of proficiency in a schedule is not simply "knowing" it, but rather "understanding and mastering it."

Three days ago, when Lu Mingfei started learning advanced calculus and mathematical analysis, he was already unable to gain proficiency from high school mathematics.

This means that he has fully mastered all high school math knowledge.

This knowledge will not be forgotten. Lu Mingfei doesn't know why his memory and comprehension abilities are exaggerated to this extent... Anyway, he can do it!
Therefore, when faced with this math test paper, he could start solving the problem as soon as he read the questions, without any hesitation.

With the added benefit of the "Super-Speed ​​Calculation" feature, the calculations required for a high school math exam are minimal, and all his calculations can be considered to take zero time!

In this way, twelve minutes is more than enough!

Question 2, five seconds;

Question 3...

There were twelve multiple-choice questions. The last two or three questions required a little more time for logical thinking than the first two, but even including the time to fill in the answer sheet, the total time was... one minute and thirty seconds!

Four fill-in-the-blank questions, total time: one minute.

The problem-solving approach for the open-ended questions still couldn't stump Lu Mingfei at all, and the calculation process was also zero... But one thing was unavoidable, which was that open-ended questions required writing out the solution steps.

The time required to answer the question was extended.

The proctor was the same one from the morning. After the exam papers were handed out, he ignored everyone else and focused solely on Lu Mingfei.

Lu Mingfei took his answer sheet to the office during lunch break to discuss it with the other Chinese language teachers. The final conclusion was that if the paper were graded exactly according to the college entrance examination model, it should have scored 149 points.

After all, during the college entrance examination, they don't know who owns the answer sheet. Each question is drawn out separately, and they can only see the answer content. The score is combined after being graded by multiple different teachers. The same applies to the essay!
Lu Mingfei's essay, in terms of both theme and description, met the standard of a perfect essay... The only problem was the words!

Of all the subjects in high school exams, only Chinese, and only Chinese composition, has a scoring criterion of "presentation score".

Even so, it's already frightening enough.

This is unprecedented!

Not to mention, it was Lu Mingfei who achieved this score.

It's rare for a salted fish to turn its fortunes around, but Lu Mingfei's turn can't even be called a salted fish turning its fortunes around. If this wasn't just a fleeting moment but a permanent occurrence... then it should be called a salted fish turning its fortunes around and a fish leaping over the dragon gate.

He has transformed into a dragon!
Such a dramatic change naturally attracted attention. The proctor quickly noticed Lu Mingfei's unusual behavior—he was writing too fast.

Normally, answering math questions involves reading the question carefully and then thinking about it, but Lu Mingfei practically skipped that step. Each time, he'd start writing within seconds… without even stopping!
Out of curiosity, the proctor stood up, walked down from the podium, and went to Lu Mingfei's side.

Lu Mingfei didn't even notice the change; the immense pressure from the ridiculous countdown had already put him in a state of "flow" while answering the question.

Understanding the question and reflecting on it are the steps to solving the problem.

There were virtually no pauses or calculations.

Lu Mingfei wrote entirely on the answer sheet. By the time he had finished answering the six questions in a total of seven minutes and thirty seconds, his draft paper was completely blank!
"call……"

Lu Mingfei slowly let out a sigh of relief, exiting the "flow" state.

He looked up and glanced at the wall clock.

14:10:00
Total time: 10 minutes.

"cough……"

The soft cough from beside him startled Lu Mingfei. He turned his head and met the strange look in the invigilator's eyes.

"Don't tell me you're handing in your paper..." The proctor broke out in a cold sweat.

He was watching Lu Mingfei answer the question almost the entire time... the entire time!
If that can be considered a "solution".

But copying the answers was out of the question, because the math teacher in charge of setting the exam was a well-known procrastinator and a good friend of the proctor—he knew that the guy had only finished the questions and sent them to the printing room just before the lunch break was about to end.

The exam papers were still steaming hot when they were delivered to the classrooms!

The answer? LOL, that guy probably doesn't even have it himself, and is probably rushing to finish it right now.
Therefore, Lu Mingfei could only answer the question himself.

but……

Can this guy even be considered a human being?

Who can pass a high school math exam in ten minutes?

What fastest legend!
As for the accuracy rate?
Although the proctor was a Chinese language teacher, his math skills were actually quite good. In fact, he became good friends with that math teacher because after one exam, after going over the Chinese test, he casually went over the math test as well...

All I can say is that when Lu Mingfei checked a few of the questions, he couldn't find any errors in Lu Mingfei's answers.

No wonder the proctor looked at Lu Mingfei strangely... The facts were right in front of him, and no matter how absurd they were, he had no choice but to believe them.

In his view, after his dramatic turnaround and subsequent leap forward, Lu Mingfei has now reached the third and final stage.

Dragons are not creatures confined to ponds; they ride the thunder to the highest heavens!
"Is that okay?"

Lu Mingfei scratched his head and said softly. He knew his actions were somewhat shocking... but he had no choice; he couldn't just sit there and wait to be electrocuted!
"……Can."

After a brief moment of consideration, the proctor nodded in agreement.

Logically speaking, it should not be allowed, but for the first time in a long time, he wanted to be willful and personally witness the birth of a legend, and even participate in it.

It's just a mock exam, not the actual college entrance exam!
"Thank you, teacher!"

Lu Mingfei eagerly handed in his answer sheet.

The classroom was very quiet. This simple conversation had already attracted the attention of all the students... When they watched Lu Mingfei hand in his answer sheet, their eyes almost popped out of their sockets!
Lu Mingfei didn't care about any of that. He quickly packed his things and went out.

The proctor, carrying the answer sheet, returned to the podium, stared at it blankly for a while, and finally sighed softly after failing to find any mistakes.

He raised his head slightly, finally shifting his gaze from the answer sheet to the group of students who were stunned.

"Answer the questions carefully, students."

He offered words of comfort in a somber tone.

"We are still human beings, and we should be reasonable."
