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

Chapter 144 Overlord Spear? Gungnir! (2.5K)

Lu Mingfei recalled a movie that was released last year.

In the movie "Wanted," there is a group of people with superb marksmanship. They can use a clever "technique" to make the bullets fired from their guns curve, bypass obstacles, and hit the enemies hiding behind them.

Commonly known as gun-fu/gun-flicking technique!
From the perspective of real physics, this phenomenon is impossible, as it violates the fundamental principles of classical mechanics, especially Newton's first law and the law of conservation of angular momentum.

After a bullet leaves the barrel, it is basically only affected by gravity and air resistance, and its flight trajectory is determined by the direction of its initial velocity when it leaves the barrel.

The acceleration time of a bullet inside a pistol barrel is generally between 0.001 and 0.003 seconds. In such a short time, how much lateral velocity can the angular velocity of a human's arm and wrist provide to the bullet?

Extremely low!

But Lu Mingfei just found that movie really captivating. He deeply empathized with the male protagonist, Wesley, hoping that one day a woman like Fox would appear out of nowhere and take him to a completely new world where he would display his unparalleled talent, become all-powerful, and reach the pinnacle of life.

Therefore, he specifically downloaded pirated resources on his laptop, watched the movie repeatedly, and finally found a reasonable explanation—

The movie features a "weaving machine of fate," where assassins decipher the names of those destined for death by cracking the binary code on the machine, then kill them to achieve their mission of "killing one to save a thousand."

A normal loom would not produce a binary code that happens to correspond to a person's name, but with "the guidance of fate," everything is different.

Therefore, it makes sense that those assassins master "gun-fu" techniques that defy the laws of physics, because their bullets are blessed by "fate," and what they spew from the muzzle is not a bullet but a predetermined death!
This concept is really appealing; Lu Mingfei really likes it.

But he never expected that this skill would actually appear in his hands, and even be stronger! Compared to the setting of "fate makes bullets curve", the skill "correction interference", which can be described as "cause and effect", is obviously more abnormal!
Just as he hadn't realized that he, like Wesley, seemed to possess a special bloodline without even knowing it...

Of course, what fell from the sky and took him away from his original life was not a sexy hottie with captivating eyes like Fox, but a schedule book.

It does carry electricity, but instead of an electric eye, it generates an electric shock.

Lu Mingfei came back to his senses.

The two terms in the [Basketball] plan are [Accurate Hit] and [Absolute Hit]. Accurate Hit is responsible for locking onto the target, while Absolute Hit is responsible for eliminating interference. The combination of the two is like the [Stamina Recovery] and [Stamina Boost] in [Fitness], forming a self-contained system.

The core of the basketball system is shooting, while the core of the fitness system is physical fitness... that's quite apt.

The urge to try out a new toy and do something with it, which he had just gotten his hands on, resurfaced, making Lu Mingfei itchy and restless.

Then he looked at Chu Zihang.

Lu Mingfei had complete confidence in Chu Zihang. Although his cold and aloof senior brother was a gossip at heart, he was actually an excellent keeper of secrets, and the two had a life-or-death friendship, more like brothers than blood brothers.

“Senior brother, I want to try… something new,” Lu Mingfei said.

"it is good."

Chu Zihang noticed Lu Mingfei's "dazed and confused" state the instant it occurred. However, he was already used to Lu Mingfei's behavior and simply waited in silence until now.

“What am I supposed to do?” he asked.

"I'm going to shoot the ball towards the basket in a bit."

Lu Mingfei gestured and took two steps back.

"Senior, stand in front of me, just like when we played one-on-one. After I release the basketball, jump up and tap it lightly to the side and slightly in front of it. Remember to be gentle, just enough to prevent the ball from going in. Also, only tap it once, and immediately remove your hand afterward."

This is a rigorous testing method he derived based on the effect description of the [Absolute Hit] term – light means the interference is not serious, so Lu Mingfei can eliminate the interference without consuming too much mental energy, and will not be unable to see clearly on the spot.

Lu Mingfei had Chu Zihang take a quick pat from the side and leave because he didn't know how [Absolute Hit] "eliminated interference"... what if it was something like "breaking through all obstacles"?

Lu Mingfei only wanted to see how this entry worked, and didn't want to cause any harm to Chu Zihang.

"it is good."

The answer was still a simple yes.

After completing the preparations, Lu Mingfei raised his hand and shot the ball.

[Precise Hit] [Absolute Hit] [Force Analysis], activate!

It was still the same automatic aiming feel as before, accurately targeting the target within ten meters. However, this time, Lu Mingfei had a flash of inspiration and didn't shoot a swish. He chose the small square area on the backboard, aiming for a "backboard shot." The world of mechanics unfolded before his eyes.

Almost simultaneously, Chu Zihang bent his knees slightly and easily leaped into the air. After his agile figure rose to a somewhat exaggerated height, he followed Lu Mingfei's instructions, raised his hand and lightly touched the front side of the basketball, and then withdrew his hand.

The basketball veered off course.

Lu Mingfei stared intently at the basketball.

If nothing unexpected happens, following its altered trajectory, the basketball will just glide past the backboard, resulting in a "no-air" (no contact with the basket).

However, [Absolute Accuracy] is effective.

Without any warning, Lu Mingfei felt as if something had "sucked" into his mind.

That bite wasn't very big; it was probably about the amount of mental energy required to be completely immersed in studying for an hour.

However, in the usual learning process, Lu Mingfei would consume and recover at the same time! With the indirect recovery effect brought by the [Stamina Boost], he could completely achieve "balance between income and expenditure"... But this time the extraction was instantaneous.

His vision went slightly dark for a moment, and a long-lost drowsiness surged in like a tide.

Fortunately, I managed to hold on and didn't faint.

He stared intently at the basketball that had gone off course.

A “miracle” happened.

Logically, a new vector should suddenly appear on a basketball that, like a bullet, is subject to gravity and air resistance during its movement.

That vector was generated out of thin air and acted directly on the basketball itself! And it looked extremely familiar in both length and direction.

Lu Mingfei realized almost instantly that it was the same vector that Chu Zihang had applied when he "interfered" with the basketball, only now the length was exactly the same but the direction was opposite!

The basketball flew through the air at an extremely strange angle before returning to its original trajectory, hitting the backboard precisely and going through the net!

The basketball bounced on the ground and flew towards the two of them, where Chu Zihang caught it. He silently pressed the basketball, then looked at Lu Mingfei.

"Don't try it, senior. It's just an ordinary basketball. There's no automatic guidance device inside!"

Lu Mingfei grinned. He still looked a little tired, but he was becoming more energetic at a visible speed.

"What do you think of my new idea?"

"sharp."

Chu Zihang's tone remained indifferent. "Lu Mingfei, well, nothing he does is surprising."

"But use it sparingly."

"Damn! This is my ultimate move!"

Lu Mingfei nodded vigorously. He already had a lot of ultimate moves, but that didn't stop him from continuing to think of new ones.

You only realize how little you know when you need it; the same applies to ultimate skills.

Almost instantly, he had already come up with a combination move.

Once the Overlord Spear is in your hands, unleash its power with [Ming Jin - Level 1], aim and throw with [Precise Hit], and eliminate interference with [Absolute Hit]... After the Overlord Spear leaves your hand, it will be a deadly weapon more than three meters long!
A destined, sure-fire shot?
Lu Mingfei recalled the Norse mythology he had read, in which the god Odin possessed a spear called Gungnir, the shaft of which was made from a branch of the World Tree. When Odin threw the spear, it would emit a bright light that pierced the sky, like lightning or a shooting star.

Legend has it that this gun's ability is quite simple yet powerful: "it will always hit its target when thrown." It is a divine gun that never misses, capable of piercing through anything it hits, and then automatically returns to its owner's hand.

"But theoretically, I've already managed to do about half of it?"

Lu Mingfei thought to himself.

"What kind of artificial Gungnir is this?!"
