Dragon Raja's Number One Player

Chapter 158 Home Swap

It should be noted that although Chu Zihang is nominally the president of the "Lionheart Society," he actually does not attend most of these routine meetings.

The daily management of the Lionheart Society was handled by Vice President Lanchester.

After all, in Lanchester's words, "Chu Zihang is indeed no match for Caesar in terms of leadership skills, so it's better to just remain mysterious and smile."

This strategy indeed allowed Chu Zihang to maintain extremely high prestige within the "Lionheart Society," and even having a vice president act as his deputy did not shake his position.

Chu Zihang actually attended today's meeting, surprising everyone. Amidst their excitement, they also realized something.

This meeting is absolutely crucial.

"Let me explain that the topic of this meeting is: recruiting members from the freshmen, especially since this year's freshmen are different and need to be taken seriously by everyone."

Lanchester cleared his throat twice and began to discuss the contents of today's meeting, "We must acquire at least one of the two S-class freshmen."

Upon hearing his words, the Lionheart Society members displayed very complex expressions.

Two S-rank individuals, yet they could only obtain one of them.

A few years ago, these two S-class freshmen would undoubtedly have joined their "Lionheart Club," but now, the "Student Council" led by the rising star Caesar has become their formidable rival.

They still remembered that in the previous freshman recruitment, more than half of the A-level mixed-race students chose to join the student council.

If they fail again this time, the Lionheart Society will continue its decline.

"But I heard that Fingel has already convinced Lu Mingfei to join the student council. Lin Zhiying, how can we try to persuade him?"

One of the Lionheart agents spoke up, looking worried.

"After all, we are not as wealthy as the Gattuso family, so we must win in one blow."

He heard this news from the members of Fingel's news department.

One thing the members of the news department have in common is that they are all Fingel's creditors, which makes them exceptionally quick to get campus news, especially news about Fingel.

Unlike the "Student Union," the "Lionheart Society" was much simpler, so much so that many people described it as an "ascetic society." There was no need to worry about the society's headquarters, as Angers had reserved a space specifically to commemorate the first Lionheart Society.

However, these young people's behavior is indeed somewhat unlikable.

"Don't talk about that. At least many of this year's freshmen want to join us."

Lanchester began to speak.

The enthusiasm of this year's new students reminded him of his peak years.

Moreover, for Lin Zhiying, their Lionheart Society was not without anything.

"The president and Lin Zhiying have a good personal relationship, and they even live in the same dormitory. With the president involved, we naturally have a certain advantage."

Could Chu Zihang actually have a personal relationship with Lin Zhiying? The Lionheart Society agents immediately became excited; the possibility was indeed much greater.

"However, in a mixed-race society, simply relying on personal connections isn't enough."

Someone poured cold water on the idea.

"What if we add 'bloodlust' to that?"

Chu Zihang, who had been silent all along, finally spoke.

Although everyone present knew that this was the only bargaining chip the Lionheart Society could offer, only Chu Zihang could say it.

After all, he was the president of the Lionheart Society, a position that even Lanchester, who was acting as the leader, could not hold.

"Bloodlust" is the core secret technique of the Lionheart Society. It is a magical skill that can change one's bloodline and was once lost.

However, Chu Zihang discovered it through his own efforts, and its existence was kept secret from the vast majority of Lionheart Society members.

However, those at these levels are all qualified to know this information, and some of them have even learned "Bloodlust".

But usually only those who have made contributions or are senior members are qualified to visit the Lionheart Society's archives. Now, for a newcomer, they have to go to such lengths. At the round table, many people sighed softly.

They just can't afford to lose.

"Since no one has any objections, let's do it this way."

Lanchester adjourned the meeting and nodded to Chu Zihang.

Not long after Qi Lan left, Chu Zihang returned to the dormitory.

Lin Zhiying was somewhat surprised, because after spending the last few days together, he knew that even without classes, Chu Zihang would stay at the training ground for two or three hours before returning, so today was indeed a bit early.

Chu Zihang returned to his dormitory, his usually cold face showing a hint of embarrassment.

"What's wrong? Just say it."

Thinking of Qi Lan who had just left, Lin Zhiying had a rough idea of ​​what he wanted to say.

The end of the 3E exams doesn't mean players will become bored. Although there are some optional courses, those are courses that you can skip once you've earned enough credits.

The club recruitment is a major highlight; you can join the "Student Council" or the "Lionheart Club".

In addition, the "guild gameplay" that players have been eagerly anticipating has also been officially launched. What was originally just a nominal role can now be used to actually form a guild and enjoy guild bonuses.

Both "One Cut to Cut Water" and "Blue Dream Sky" invited me to join their guilds, but I declined both invitations.

I may have led a guild before, so this time I want to try a different approach.

However, not joining a player guild does not mean not choosing a club. The Lionheart Club and the Student Council are also good options, as long as they can offer a suitable price.

Considering her relationship with Chu Zihang, Lin Zhiying wouldn't refuse if he really invited her to join the "Lionheart Society".

After all, there is the "Bloodlust" skill that can be exchanged.

Unexpectedly, Lin Zhiying heard Chu Zihang, who had been organizing his thoughts for a while, say, "Lin Zhiying, why don't you join the student council?"

What do you mean? Do you despise yourself that much? Are you trying to push yourself away?

Lu Mingfei and Finger were on their way to Norton Hall, where they had been invited to a student council dinner.

This was also the last time the "Student Council" held an event at the "Norton Building," as the building would soon be handed over to Lin Chih-ying, the winner of "Freedom Day."

"What's wrong, Senior Brother? You haven't said a word the whole way?"

Lu Mingfei asked with some doubt.

Fingel would never have been as idle as he is now in the past.

"It's nothing."

Fingel smiled, avoiding looking at Lu Mingfei.

He was thinking about how to bring Lin Zhiying into the student council, and he also felt somewhat guilty for betraying Lu Mingfei behind his back.

After all, he had exchanged his beloved junior brother with Caesar to get half of his debt back.

--------------

They arrived at the Norton Hall, which should have been bustling with activity, but now it looked very deserted, with only a few scattered people.

"Strange, isn't today a party? Why is nobody here? Have we become so materially well-off that we don't even take advantage of free meals anymore?"

Fingel made no attempt to hide the fact that he was there to freeload a meal.

Fortunately, as he scanned the area with his own light, he discovered that although fewer people had come, the food and drinks had not decreased at all.

Because of the limited number of people, the lobsters that were originally limited per person are now unlimited.

"Didn't the president say that today's gathering was canceled? Didn't you know?"

A person nearby, seeing that the two of them looked like they hadn't eaten anything, spoke up as he moved away from them.

"What do you mean?"

With half a crab stuffed in his mouth, Lu Mingfei asked.

"I don't know, but Lin Zhiying came not long ago. It doesn't affect your free meal. The chairman said that although the banquet was canceled, dinner is still here as compensation."

A student council member across from them spoke up, and judging from his appearance, he was also there to freeload.

Did the student council actually cancel the banquet that had already been arranged because of Lin Zhiying?

Fingel suddenly had a flash of inspiration. Did that mean he might join the student council, and then all his debts would be cleared up?

He didn't notice that Lu Mingfei, who was eating, slowed down after hearing this, and put the crab on the table before finishing it.

Why?

Lu Mingfei was puzzled. They were both S-level, so why was his treatment so different from Lin Zhiying's?

He was the victor of "One Day of Freedom," an undeniable fact, but he was also an S-class.

His own bloodline is at least genuine, but judging from the current situation, he is being ignored.

Lu Mingfei's suppressed emotions gradually erupted.

If he had never seen the light, perhaps he could have endured the darkness.

Without Professor Guderian's expectations and the affirmation of his S-class bloodline by others, he might still have chosen to be a good-for-nothing, just like Shilan Middle School.

But they gave me hope, making me feel that I could become different.

It made him feel that he could live a new way of life in the environment of "Kassel College".

So here's the question: why was he allowed to be left out in the cold after receiving Caesar's invitation?

After the 3E exam, Lu Mingfei felt that his body had undergone some changes, whether or not it was related to Lu Mingze.

His muscles became stronger and stronger, and he had inexhaustible energy and strength, so much so that he now gets up at six or seven o'clock every morning, something he never dared to dream of before.

This wasn't because he wanted to get up early, but because his body had recovered to its best state and he simply couldn't fall asleep.

Lu Mingfei didn't know if it was Lu Mingze who gave him the courage, but this time he decided to say no.

Lu Mingfei put down everything he was holding. Finding no paper around, he could only wipe his mouth with the handkerchief in his suit pocket.

"Hmm...how come you're full so quickly?"

Fingel, his mouth stuffed full, said with some confusion.

What's wrong with Lu Mingfei today? Is something on his mind?

You only ate this little bit and then stopped eating?

As Lu Mingfei's roommate, he knew very well that Lu Mingfei's appetite was much larger than what he had just eaten.

"I'm not eating anymore, I'm leaving."

Lu Mingfei is a very stubborn person. After making up his mind, he spoke.

"Let's go, but the problem is, where do we go? You're here today to pay your respects to the powerful."

Fingel pulled him aside and whispered.

He did have ulterior motives for joining the student council, but for Lu Mingfei, a poor boy, was there a better option in the entire "Kassel College" than the student council, which provided him with a monthly stipend?

"I don't know, maybe the Lionheart Society."

Lu Mingfei said casually.

The moment the words "Lionheart Society" were uttered, the surrounding air instantly fell silent, and countless eyes turned to him.

"I'm sorry, Lu Mingfei, it is indeed our fault that the banquet was canceled today. However, we notified you an hour in advance, and the president will contact you separately later."

A student council minister came over and expressed his apologies.

Lu Mingfei merely glanced at him before turning and leaving towards the main entrance.

"No, why are you really leaving?"

Fingel initially thought Lu Mingfei was just playing a trick to sell himself, but when he realized that Lu was about to leave if he wasn't stopped, he realized that something was definitely not right.

After a moment's hesitation, I wiped my hands on the tablecloth and followed.

"If you're not a junior and don't join the student council, where will you go? The Lionheart Club? That's full of poor bastards—"

Fingel tried to persuade Lu Mingfei with great earnestness, but Lu Mingfei did not stop.

News of Lu Mingfei's departure from Norton Hall spread quickly.

Caesar glanced at his phone, paused for a moment, but his aristocratic upbringing allowed him to recover instantly.

The person sitting opposite him is still there; he is the one who is truly important.

Lu Mingfei was merely an added bonus, but his departure solidified Caesar's resolve to win over Lin Zhiying.

This inadvertently increased his sunk costs.

"What's wrong?"

----------

Lin Zhiying, who was on the other side, asked.

"It's nothing, it's just that Lu Mingfei left after that."

39

Caesar shook his head and cut the steak in front of him with his knife and fork. There were only two people in the room, him and Lin Zhiying. On the table were fresh roses and two silver candlesticks.

It looks like a very formal candlelight dinner, if you ignore the fried noodles in front of Lin Zhiying.

He originally only intended to host a banquet for Lu Mingfei.

After all, one S-level guest is enough for a banquet, but Lin Zhiying came unexpectedly, so Lu Mingfei will have to wait a little while.

Now that he has left, Caesar is regretful, but there is nothing else he can do.

Perhaps if he had personally gone down to persuade them to stay as soon as he received the news, there would still have been a chance.

The Gattuso family has never had a tradition of treating people with respect unless you are strong enough, but Lu Mingfei's current performance at least shows that.

"So be it," Caesar thought.

Lin Zhiying was taken aback when he heard his words.

Unexpectedly, he had changed the original plot once again. It seemed that Lu Mingfei was likely to join the Lionheart Society.

Lin Zhiying was curious about what would happen if the original S-grade bloodline were combined with the Lionheart Society's violent blood.

"I don't want to say anything else, let's just get straight to the point, okay?"

Caesar wiped his mouth and fingers with a napkin. "What Lionheart will give you, I will give you everything."

"And this," Caesar said, taking a small notebook from his pocket and pushing it in front of Lin Zhiying.

What do you mean? You think you can bribe me with a small notebook?

Lin Zhiying thought, "Then I feel you would be better off pulling out a check."

Until he saw what it was, the system panel showed that it was a secret technique, just like the Lionheart Society's "Bloodlust".

【Mental Splitting Technique (Gattuso)】

That's one long chapter for today. I'll organize my thoughts and then speed things up. We're going to leave the academy and go elsewhere, but it's not the usual cliché. (This paragraph isn't paid out because it's under 200 words.)
