Or you can go to a door, activate a dimensional portal, and slowly count down the countdown on it.

Could this be withdrawal symptoms after being separated?

Lu Mingfei arrived at the coffee shop on time today, with stacks of documents on the table.

"The court hearing is today, and the documents are ready."

The two encountered Lu Gucheng's family at the entrance of the courthouse.

Seeing Lu Mingfei cowering in terror behind Lu Gucheng, the aunt muttered softly, "Take it away, take it away, I don't want it anymore, please stop torturing me..."

In court, Attorney Zhou noticed that the Lu family had not hired a lawyer and were very sincere in admitting their mistakes.

He held back, only listing the well-known facts, easily shifting the balance of power in his favor.

Not long after, the results came out.

They secured a six-figure sum for Lu Mingfei's child support in one go.

As for what happens next, we'll just have to wait for Lu Gucheng's family to slowly pay off their debts.

Six figures... Lu Mingfei looked at the balance on his bankbook and fell into deep thought, no longer experiencing the thrill of counting zeros for the first time.

You've got the money, so what happens next?

For a moment, I felt like life had lost its meaning.

Sitting outside the courthouse, watching the people coming and going, some people were shouting and cursing at each other at the door, while others went in amicably and came out glaring at each other like enemies.

Attorney Zhou approached Lu Mingfei.

"Mr. Lu, you've worked hard this time. To celebrate this success, let me treat you to dinner. After all, the reward is quite substantial."

"Okay." Lu Mingfei was free anyway, so he was either being watched, wandering around, or playing games.

I've fallen back into a state of complete inactivity.

Lu Mingfei had no idea where Attorney Zhou had brought him. It seemed to be a high-end restaurant in this small county town, and the two of them had booked a private room.

“Mr. Lu, I don’t like beating around the bush. There’s something I’ve been keeping from you.” Attorney Zhou pried open his eyelids and removed his contact lens from his eyeball.

His eyes, gleaming with a faint golden light, were revealed—golden pupils.

"As you can see, I am not a pure-blooded human, I am a hybrid."

After saying that, he put on his colored contact lenses.

"..." Lu Mingfei tried his best to open his eyes wide and stared blankly at the other person.

Actually, he had suspected this lawyer Zhou for a long time, but since the other party had offered to help him, he had no right to expose him directly.

Golden Eyes... He has only seen three people with that.

The first person was Lu Mingze, whose face was always shining. His eyes were so beautiful that I really wanted to capture them and keep them.

The second person is oneself, and it only lights up when using the Word Spirit Mirror.

The last person is the other party, and they are relatively weak in terms of brightness, color, and sense of oppression.

This should be what distinguishes the "outsiders" of this world from the hybrids. The way to identify hybrids should be through their golden eyes.

When Attorney Zhou saw Lu Mingfei's reaction, he smiled slightly. It's normal for people to react this way when they first meet someone of mixed race; you'll get used to it.

"Don't your eyes hurt from wearing two colored contact lenses?" Lu Mingfei asked casually.

"Huh?" Attorney Zhou stared blankly at Lu Mingfei, his lips twitching.

"These aren't two colored contact lenses, these are golden eyes, a symbol of mixed blood, a symbol that only mixed blood with high-level bloodlines can ignite," Attorney Zhou explained hastily.

"Oh." Lu Mingfei drawled out the word, secretly amused by the other person's anxious expression.

There are indeed mixed-race people in China. I wonder what their relationship is with Kassel College.

"Are your eyes dry?"

"..." Attorney Zhou already knew from his previous interactions with Lu Mingfei that the latter would occasionally say some nonsense.

The topic was abruptly and awkwardly changed.

"Here's the thing. According to our informant's report, there seems to be a mixed-race attack using the power of words, so I was tasked with investigating. The person who was attacked is your aunt, and you happen to be dealing with child support matters. Given your special status, I started contacting you."

"Based on my observations over this period, you haven't used any word-based abilities. Perhaps you simply triggered something by chance, so..."

Lu Mingfei couldn't help but interrupt the other person and asked.

"Hybrid? Word of power? My identity is special? Can you explain in detail? I'm completely confused."

"Huh?" Attorney Zhou stared blankly at Lu Mingfei, as if to say, "Are you kidding me?"

"You know nothing?" Attorney Zhou asked, his eyes wide.

"What should I know?" Lu Mingfei asked in return.

"Didn't Kassel College teach you that?" Attorney Zhou asked again.

"They just gave me an admission notice and a cell phone, and that was it," Lu Mingfei said, spreading his hands to indicate his innocence.

Lu Mingfei watched as Attorney Zhou opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something about national essence, but seemed to hold back because of someone's presence.

"Sigh, who is it this time from Kassel College? They're really unreliable."

“Guderian and Chen Motong,” Lu Mingfei quickly said the names of the two people.

"The Chen family..." Attorney Zhou muttered under his breath, "None of that matters anymore. These are just basic facts for entering the world of hybrids."

"Hybrids are...words of power are..."

As Attorney Zhou explained, Lu Mingfei gained a general understanding and a vague impression of these things.

This world of ditch is indeed where strength is determined by bloodline.

“You are a hybrid recruited by Kassel College. Strictly speaking, you are a student of Kassel. The main family usually doesn’t care about these things, so they leave them to us branch families. We maintain a friendly attitude towards Kassel College and tolerate them recruiting outstanding hybrids from the local area, simply because they are doing it to slay dragons.”

"You may operate within the territory, but when using Word of Power, you must avoid crowds and ensure that ordinary people do not see you, and... although we are not warlike, we are not afraid of battle."

Attorney Zhou stared intently at Lu Mingfei.

"Why are you looking at me like that? I haven't officially joined Kassel College yet. I was forced onto this pirate ship. You can't treat me as a member of Kassel College."

"Although I may be a bit sly, I haven't done anything wrong."

Chapter 105 The Curse of Dragon Blood

Attorney Zhou was taken aback when he heard Lu Mingfei deny that he was a student at Kassel College.

He stared blankly at Lu Mingfei with an expression that said, "You're slandering me."

Currently, most people, upon hearing about any mixed-race organization in America, would do anything to get to America, and would go to great lengths to get on the good side of Kassel College.

Some families in China have even gone so far as to offer their best interests to outsiders, giving away their mixed-race offspring with superior bloodlines to be used as breeding tools.

In contrast, Lu Mingfei looked reluctant, even a bit lazy. Recalling the cooperation between Lu Mingfei's ancestors and the country, it seems that each generation is worse than the last.

Attorney Zhou felt his thoughts were a bit jumbled and rubbed his uncomfortable head.

His main task this time was to contact Lu Mingfei, observe Lu Mingfei, and handle the cases he had taken on. It was nearing its end, and he only needed to ask a few questions.

"Mr. Lu Mingfei, I have a few questions for you."

"Um, could you answer a few questions for me while you're at it?" Lu Mingfei looked at the other person expectantly, behaving like a curious child.

He grumbled, "That Guderian didn't say anything, and I was somehow dragged into a world of hybrids, bloodlines, and dragon slaying..."

Attorney Zhou could tell just how much resentment Lu Mingfei harbored towards Kassel College from his complaints.

He sighed inwardly. This poor kid was another one who had been fooled by Kassel College.

"Sure, as long as it doesn't involve classified information, I can answer you."

Attorney Zhou continued, "Your aunt's condition is very similar to that of someone attacked by a kind of spiritual power."

Lu Mingfei pondered seriously: "Perhaps the man, who had been feeling stifled for more than ten years, felt he should stand up for himself. The domineering woman was furious at being contradicted, and that's how the tragedy happened."

Attorney Zhou nodded. This reason was very reasonable and convincing. This was not a crime committed by a mixed-race individual, and he silently categorized it as a typical family dispute.

Lu Mingfei remained curious, observing Attorney Zhou.

It was clear that the other party strongly believed in the slightly embellished version of the truth, and that they hadn't used anything special in the past few days.

They probably didn't carry any equipment, or didn't even have any, capable of detecting the power of words.

It seems that his abilities have not been exposed. Even if they were, he still has the Golden Light Mantra and the Yang Five Thunder Technique.

It's enough to give the other side at least a hard time.

The other party had previously explained the meaning of "hybrid" and "word power".

Hybrids are offspring of humans and dragons; to put it more elegantly, they are called hybrids. Word magic is activated through the power of language.

"Slaying the dragon"—the dragon is a spiritual totem in my country, and only the West frequently uses the phrase "slaying the dragon." In their culture, dragons are usually depicted as abducting princesses, and then... well, that won't work, or... how can this be? The gap is too big.

Perhaps his vision was too narrow, or perhaps he had directly bathed in dragon blood, eaten dragon meat raw, and fought his way to victory with human lives.

Whether it's a dragon knight or a dragon rider, as long as one of them is successful, one can boast about it for a long time.

"May I ask some questions about the dragon race?" Lu Mingfei asked after the other person stopped thinking.

Only after Attorney Zhou nodded did he speak.

"Western dragons and Eastern dragons have different appearances. Do they look the same as those in the legends?"

Lu Mingfei wanted to know the dragons' abilities. If they could summon wind and rain, flood Chentang Pass, or control thunder, then what would they use to fight?

Even if you sell your hooks to fight, you still can't win. Your tiny sparks of electricity are nothing compared to a real dragon; they're just like the sparks from a lighter. It's laughable.

Attorney Zhou said, "I can answer that. Once you officially come into contact with the world of mixed-race people, you will understand."

"The forms depicted in those myths are only one manifestation of them. They not only have the form of a real dragon, but also the form of a human, or other forms."

"The fact that the nine sons of the dragon are all different indicates that the dragon's blood contains pollutants that can transform living beings into forms similar to dragons, provided that they can withstand the powerful force within the dragon's blood. It also proves that dragons are creatures without reproductive isolation and with a strong desire to reproduce."

Therefore, form was not very important for dragons.

Lu Mingfei slightly opened his eyes. If that were the case, would the dragon race even have unknown offspring born from their own amusement?

Logically speaking, with such a powerful reproductive capacity, and considering that dragon blood is also polluted, they should have already ruled the world.
