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

Chapter 40 Hurry up and go to Siberia to find the girl with no connections!
The clamor permeated the world.

It's like a hole has been torn in the sky, connecting to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean, and a real-time "seawater-freshwater" converter has been installed.

So the rain, which appeared to be almost seamless to the naked eye, fell from the sky endlessly.

But the boy started running in the pouring rain. He ran incredibly fast, far beyond the ordinary, even ridiculously fast—

In less than a second, he covered a distance of tens of meters, moving so fast that he carved a "passage" through the rain and disappeared into the distance!
The video freezes here, the noisy rain finally stops, the room quiets down, and the sound of people sipping their drinks becomes particularly clear.

The long-legged girl looked at the potato chip girl next to her: "It's really a bit strange not to hear you munching on potato chips."

"Eating potato chips is just to suppress my alcohol craving, but there's no need to suppress it at times like this. I need alcohol to relieve... stress."

As the potato chip girl spoke, she sighed, the smell of alcohol wafting through the air.

She was half-paralyzed on the sofa, holding a bottle of Romanée-Conti Grand Cru, a very rare 1.5-liter Magnum bottle.

With an annual production of only 450 cases, the Romanée-Conti Grand Cru could fetch $2 to $3 per bottle back then, and that was just for the flagship 750ml size. The Magnum version would generally cost three or four times that amount, and even then, it was often in short supply.

Because DRC's Magnum bottles are extremely rare, produced only in specific years or for special needs, they mostly circulate in private collections or at auctions. The bottle that Chip Girl is holding is even rarer, as it is from 2008!

Given her status, it's impossible for her to obtain a counterfeit product. This could only be a non-circulating version specially customized by the winery for its VIP clients. If it were auctioned off, it would easily fetch two or three hundred thousand US dollars.

Logically, this bottle of wine should be stored away and then, in the most "standard and high-class" way, undergo a series of complex processes such as temperature control and decanting before being tasted by each person in small portions at an important celebration.

But the potato chip girl just held the whole bottle, the cork was casually pulled out and thrown aside, and she even used a few plastic straws that came with soy milk from a roadside stall, assembled them to extend their length, inserted them and started sucking!
At this moment, she appears to be a "decadent tycoon"... if you ignore the golden eyes that blaze within them.

"Is the situation that serious? Does it require you to use the Word Power: Heavenly Evolution?"

"The long-legged girl asked."

"It just means running faster... You could do that with Word of Power: Zero Time or Word of Power: Moment, right?"

The Word of Power: Heavenly Evolution enhances the brain's thinking and computational abilities. Given Potato Chip Girl's lineage, her computational abilities could be amplified to surpass those of some supercomputers!

She used to only occasionally use it when she was a big shot in the global stock market, but now she's been using it continuously for a long time because of this surveillance video.

"Sometimes I really envy illiterate people like you; things always seem so much simpler for you." The potato chip girl looked at her wistfully and sighed.

"Potato Chip Girl, you've gone too far! Have I been too lenient with you lately and you're getting a hard time? You think I can't beat you at least by arguing with you?"

The long-legged girl immediately bristled upon hearing this, "And I'm not illiterate! I have a legitimate bachelor's degree from the University of Tokyo!"

"Oh?" The potato chip girl raised an eyebrow. "What department?"

The long-legged girl hesitated for a long time before finally speaking in a barely audible voice: "Music Department."

"Pfft!"

The potato chip girl spat out thousands of dollars in one gulp. She choked so badly that she coughed several times before she could recover.

"Cough, cough... What are you talking about with a degree when you're an art student? Besides, the University of Tokyo doesn't even have a music department! You didn't hire someone who makes fake certificates, did you?"

"how is this possible?"

The long-legged beauty's eyes widened in disbelief. She searched online and felt as if the sky had fallen.

"I paid a fortune to have that person do it! I even bragged about it to so many people... Why didn't any of them mention it?"

"You said that to your boyfriends, right?"

The potato chip girl squinted at her.

"I can't even count how many powerful and influential nobles, princes, or famous artists and celebrities there are... Some of them probably don't know about this at all, and others know but are too cultured to say it directly."

Besides, what's the point of exposing this? They care about your figure and appearance, not your bachelor's degree from the University of Tokyo!

The long-legged beauty is stunning and alluring. If you put her in history, she could definitely rival the infamous Su Daji. She seems to have been born to bewitch the world and bring down a nation. With such looks, what need is there for inner beauty?
"Damn it, you're making me sound like I'm a promiscuous woman!" the long-legged girl said through gritted teeth.

"That's not the case. I believe you are sincere and passionate in every relationship, it's just that they come and go quickly..."

Chip Girl pouted and changed the subject before completely enraging Long-Legged Girl: "Okay, let's get down to business! You probably can't tell, so I'll just say it straight—first of all, look at this rain, it's abnormally heavy."

"That's definitely not normal. How can there be such a massive rainstorm with such a small radius? This must be the effect of a spell." The long-legged girl decided to prove that her intelligence was not the problem.

"Yes, but have you ever thought that the release of some incantations also needs a real-world basis?" the potato chip girl asked.

"what?"

"The essence of such words that can change the weather is to mobilize the flow of elements between heaven and earth."

"Little White Rabbit No. 2's 'Sovereign Flame' manipulates the fire element, so this rain manipulates the water element. But this rain is too heavy, unbelievably heavy!"

Chip Girl looked serious. "To date, the world record for the highest rainfall per minute is held by Unionville, Maryland, USA, on July 4, 1956, when 38.1 millimeters of rain fell in one minute."

However, based on my estimation, the rainfall in this surveillance video reached 22.2 centimeters per minute!
Do you know what this means? If this were a pool, the water would be deep enough to submerge everyone in seven or eight minutes. This isn't just raining; it's like a swimming pool is falling from the sky!
But it's winter now, and the air contains far less water than in spring and summer. To achieve this level of rainfall, the area controlling the flow of these elements would have to be expanded, and that area... at least covers the entire city!

Chip Girl paused, afraid that Long-Legged Girl hadn't understood, and added, "The being that releases this Word of Power is guaranteed to be a fully awakened, peak-state next-generation species. If it's only in a weakened state, then it might reach... the Dragon King level!"

The long-legged girl's expression immediately turned quite ugly: "You mean, there's a Dragon King in this city?"

Long-legged Girl had a general idea of ​​what the Dragon King was; it was an extreme mythical creature, whose power was no less than that of "gods." "This is nothing," Potato Chip Girl waved her hand.

"This is just a small matter?"

The long-legged girl exclaimed, "I can't even imagine what you're going to say next!"

"Even if there really is a Dragon King, what does it matter? The boss definitely knows. Since the boss didn't say anything, it means it's not important." Chip Girl pulled back the surveillance video to the frame where Lu Mingfei started running and played it again.

"Little White Rabbit Number One, he's the key figure."

"I couldn't possibly be wrong about this, could I?"

The long-legged girl refused to believe it, saying, "It's either zero time or a fleeting moment!"

This behavior is like someone asking her what to choose in a question, with the options being "right" or "wrong," and the long-legged girl immediately chooses both "right" and "wrong," thinking she's invincible.

But she was still wrong, because the answer was "/".

"...Did you forget that the boss said he wouldn't have a bloodline awakening?" The potato chip girl's gaze was calm, as if she were looking at a hopeless fool, someone she had already given up on saving.

"right……"

"The effect of Word of Power: Time Zero is to create a field with the caster as the radius. Within this field, all other objects will be slowed down, and only the caster will move at normal speed."

Chip Girl said, "The 'Spirit of Words' is even simpler. It simply increases its own speed by double, with a limit of about 2 to the power of 9."

However, you must remember that neither a moment nor zero time can change the 'kinetic energy' of other objects!
For example, if you fire a shot, someone with the ability to predict the attack with lightning speed can dodge it, while someone with the ability to control time can simply activate their domain and leisurely evade it while casually stabbing you.

But none of them can 'catch' the bullet, because the bullet still has kinetic energy! If they touch it, they will be injured, and due to the relative speed, the injury will be more severe.

Now let's look at this video. What's in front of Little Rabbit No. 1 is a swimming pool that's falling down!
Imagine you're running in a swimming pool; the water resistance will hinder your movement. The faster you go, the greater the resistance. At that speed, the water is no different from a concrete foundation; whether the time is zero or a split second, you'll only crash and die.

But Lu Mingfei was different. He... he just ran right through it! He maintained a normal running form and top speed the entire way, as if he encountered no resistance. The rain around him and he himself were both normal; he was simply running normally in the rain!

The potato chip girl took a big sip of wine, her eyes sparkling with disbelief.

"And he hasn't awakened his bloodline yet... Gulp... Have you seen 'Jackie Chan Adventures'? I'm reminded of a line from it—'He's practically a superman!'"

Now the long-legged girl knows why she looks like this—for the self-proclaimed highly educated potato chip girl, the world is made up of formulas and theorems, but now, physics has collapsed before her eyes.

"But I remember that some incantations can violate the laws of physics, right? Maybe it's some kind of unknown incantation..."

The long-legged girl was about to offer some comfort, but her voice became almost inaudible as she spoke—she remembered what the potato chip girl had emphasized earlier: the boss had said that Lu Mingfei did not have a bloodline awakening.

Without bloodline awakening, one is just an ordinary person, and therefore has no power of words.

Now they've gone from being one-track-minded to having two blocked ends. The boss won't make a mistake; that's an ironclad rule, as firm as the laws of physics for them.

But how do you explain an "ordinary person" doing something that violates the laws of physics? Could it be that Little Rabbit No. 1 is really a Kryptonian orphan carrying a "life manual" and able to control a "bio-force field"?
"Then... what should we do?" the long-legged girl asked.

There is only one way.

Chip Girl took a deep breath. "We've been monitoring his daily life, but haven't found anything unusual except for what appears to be 'normal' exercise and activities."

In this situation, we have no choice but to resort to our last resort.

"What trick?"

"Beauty, person, scheme!"

The potato chip girl spoke slowly and deliberately, her tone resolute: "Young people are easily swayed by their crushes, so we need to find someone to seduce him!"

The room fell silent. The long-legged girl paused for two seconds, then exclaimed, "Damn, you potato chip girl, you're so vulgar!"

"What can I do? I lost a lot of hair tonight, you know? And I finally managed to suppress my drinking habit, but now I've relapsed! You illiterate person, you don't have to think about anything, just listen!" Chip Girl was furious.

"Alright, alright, I guess I'll have to step in at the last minute."

The long-legged girl shook her head, stood up triumphantly, and while combing her hair, revealed her breathtakingly stunning figure. "Although I'm not really into young boys, it wouldn't hurt to try one once in a while..."

"Sit down! Still thinking about an old cow eating young grass? If you're so thirsty, go order a couple of ducks yourself!"

Chip Girl went all out and threw a pillow at him.

"You can tell what kind of girl Lu Mingfei likes just by looking at her crush. She likes artsy, youthful beauties! You, this mature older woman, are obviously up to no good, okay?"

"I am so angry!"

The long-legged girl pounced on her and tickled her. "Hmph, you're all young and don't know how good big breasts are! Only a mature older sister can be considerate, okay? Besides, if I don't step in, who else can you ask? Are you going to just pick someone off the street?"

"Of course not. Besides satisfying the requirement of a beautiful young girl, we also need to satisfy the requirements of 'information transmission' and 'spending a long time with Little Rabbit No. 1'. Therefore, there is only one option."

The potato chip girl screamed as she was being tickled, just like the Jade Emperor being brutally beaten by a monkey.

"Quickly go to Siberia and find a girl with no connections!"
