Lu Mingfei, become the King of Elden!

Chapter 246 has a low content level.
"Actually, I probably wouldn't have died even if you hadn't caught me."

Lu Mingfei lay on the hospital bed, looking at the pretty junior student peeling an apple in front of him.

"My bone and muscle density are stronger than that of ordinary mixed-race people. If I fall to the ground, at most I will suffer a comminuted fracture, which will not be fatal."

"What are you saying, you idiot senior brother?!"

Xia Mi glared at him angrily:
"Is this how you talk to your savior? That was 200 meters in the air! 200 meters! That's 70 stories high! Do you think you're the black box on an airplane?"

"It's not that high."

Lu Mingfei rolled his eyes:

"I remember I used the Eye of the Wind King to make an emergency landing at least two-thirds of the way before you caught me, right? It was at most 70 meters."

"Besides," Lu Ming gestured with his chin, pointing to his fractured arm, "I calculated the angle perfectly. Following the original trajectory, I would have plunged headfirst into the deep end of the 'Rapid River Ride,' but you suddenly rushed in, leaving me to protect you."

Word of Power: Eye of the Wind King, Serial Number 74. Within the domain, it manipulates the airflow to form a vortex centered on the caster. If the caster's control is high enough, the caster can levitate in the air and even briefly float and move.

Lu Mingfei's Eye of the Wind King can almost make him float in the air when it's at full power, while Xia Mi's is obviously not that strong; she can only float briefly.

As a result, the two crashed into the concrete ground. Lu Mingfei, nearly exhausted, became his junior sister's human cushion, suffering multiple fractures.

Lu Mingfei's words were abruptly interrupted as a peeled apple was stuffed into his mouth.

"Eat, eat, eat!"

Xia Mi hummed twice:
"Even food can't shut you up! I'm just trying to be kind by feeding you fruit."

Lu Mingfei took a bite of the apple, picked it up with his other, unaffected hand, and complained:

"This is clearly a fruit basket sent by the student council, you just peeled it."

Peeling is hard work, you know!

Xia Mi glared at him, making a move to snatch the apple from his hand:
"Give it back if you're not going to eat it!"

Lu Mingfei quickly moved the apple away, but the movement was too forceful and aggravated his injury, causing him to wince in pain.

"Ouch... Be gentle! I'm injured!"

"Serves you right!" Xia Mi retorted, but still subconsciously reached out to support him, her movements much gentler. "Who told you to show off? You were already exhausted, yet you still insisted on being a human cushion."

Lu Mingfei recovered, leaned against the headboard, looked at his arm wrapped tightly in bandages, and sighed:
"There's no other way. We can't just watch you fall face down, can we? It would be such a waste to disfigure you with your delicate skin."

knock knock knock.

There was a knock on the door.

"I hope I haven't disturbed your sweet time."

The silver-haired old man smiled and spoke at the door.

Xia Mi quickly stood up:
"headmaster!"

Lu Mingfei was also somewhat surprised:

"Why are you here?"

"Come and see my valiant students."

Angers smiled:
"By the way, I need to talk to you about something."

Xia Mi immediately realized that they had something to talk about.

"Oops, I almost forgot!"

Xia Mi lightly patted her forehead, revealing a look of sudden realization, and wrinkled her nose at Lu Mingfei:

"There's a freshman orientation this afternoon, I have to hurry! Senior, you get some rest and remember to eat your apple!"

She then turned to Angers and gave a polite bow:

"Principal, I'll take my leave now."

After saying that, she nimbly slipped to the door in a few steps, then turned back and made a face at Lu Mingfei before gently closing the door.

Click.

As the door closed, Angers naturally sat down beside Lu Mingfei's hospital bed.

Only Lu Mingfei and Angers remained in the ward, along with the faint scent of fruit in the air.

"Norma, please leave for a moment."

Angers suddenly spoke into the air.

In the corner of the ward, a monitor that was in standby mode flickered briefly before going dark, indicating that its connection to the college's artificial intelligence network had been temporarily severed.

Lu Mingfei raised an eyebrow, said nothing, and slowly munched on the pear Xia Mi had peeled. He knew the old man was about to get down to business.

Angers adjusted his posture, leaning back in his chair more comfortably.

"how do you feel?"

He asked, his tone flat. "Not bad, I won't die."

Lu Mingfei gave a vague answer:

"My bones are itchy, but I think they'll heal soon."

Ang nodded, seemingly unsurprised by the answer.

"The investigation results are in," he finally got to the point, "The college held an academic conference on this matter, and the final conclusion was that this was not an accident."

Lu Mingfei nodded; he had already guessed this.

"Who did it?"

“The Dragon King,” Angers said slowly, “or more accurately, the King of the Earth and Mountains. Only he could have such precise power to destroy buildings.”

"So," Lu Mingfei said thoughtfully, "that was also his doing at the South Railway Station? But what was his purpose?"

Angers shook his head:

"No one knows what he was thinking. From a victim's perspective, it might have been directed at you. Some professors speculate it's because you killed Norton, the Bronze and Fire King."

Lu Mingfei paused for a moment, then said:
"Even among the Dragon Kings, there's this kind of loyalty?"

Angers shrugged, meaning he didn't know either.

Silence fell over the ward once again.

"How well have you mastered your Bloodlust?"

Angers suddenly asked.

Lu Mingfei was slightly taken aback.

If it were in the border region, he actually reached the highest level of "fourth-degree bloodlust". In that state, even he would inevitably be affected by the dragon personality and become somewhat out of control and violent.

Fortunately, the battle with Rataen was enough to release those negative emotions.

But in reality, according to the information provided by Chu Zihang, after the third level, it's hell.

The hybrids at that time were already close to Deadpool.

"A second time, I guess."

Lu Mingfei gave a vague answer, providing data that was barely acceptable.

"Incredible."

Angers sighed.

"Having reached that level of dragonification, you were still able to come back, and there were no signs of your bloodline going out of control. You can even eat, sleep, and drink normally. Your health is better than anyone else's. You don't look like you've used Blood Explosion at all."

Lu Mingfei scratched his head:

"Perhaps... I have a special talent?"

“That’s the only explanation,” Angers shrugged. “Your bloodline class is too high, so the stability of your bloodline is greatly enhanced, and your mental attributes are also higher than those of ordinary hybrids. This gives you a stronger will and control, preventing you from crossing that red line.”

Ultimately, the final trigger for explosive power is the part of you that defines your existence as a "human being."

"Is that so?"

Lu Mingfei muttered to himself:

"My will is indeed quite strong."

After all, he was constantly battling the will of the dragon.

“But,” Angers suddenly changed the subject, “it’s no use if only I believe it, Mingfei.”

He took out a stack of photos from his pocket.

Lu Mingfei took the photos and glanced at them. He discovered that these photos included not only his dragon form at the amusement park, but also those taken in Germany and the Three Gorges.

His appearance is clearly visible in the photo, with his skin covered in fine black scales and menacing bone spurs protruding from his joints and back.

Back in the Three Gorges, he only performed a Dragon Offering Ceremony once. At that time, his dragon transformation was very shallow and his power was very weak. He was only able to win because of the cheat that Lu Mingze gave him.

By the time he arrived in Germany, he had already swallowed several dragon hearts, and his dragonification had deepened to a higher level, making him appear somewhat abnormal.

As for now, Lu Mingfei is certain that if he were to unleash his full power, everyone would think he's like Deadpool, not a normal hybrid.

"The Board of Trustees believes there are doubts about your lineage. An investigation team will arrive at the college next week, and they are preparing to hold a hearing to discuss the possibility that your lineage is out of control."

He sighed:
“I have always tried to make them believe that your existence is of great significance, that you are our dragon-slaying hero, and the sharpest sword. They have always thought so in the past and have given you a lot of preferential treatment in the hope of strengthening your sense of belonging to the Secret Society.”

"what about now?"

Lu Mingfei looked up.

“Now,” Angers shrugged, “they not only think you’re a ticking time bomb, but they also think we’re in cahoots and want to use your trial as an excuse to fire me too.”
