Dragon Raja: Dragon Slaying Begins with System Hosting

Su Enxi now suspects that this girl was sent by the boss as a test, since the boss might be spying on them from some corner, and it's normal for him to do something sneaky...

Hmm? She suddenly thought of something, looked at Lu Mingfei, then at the little girl, and a glint seemed to flash in her eyes.

The boss only said that Lu Mingfei had the power of words, but he didn't say that Lu Mingfei had awakened his bloodline, right?

Lu Mingfei can wield the power of words with an ordinary human body, but he is ultimately too weak. Normal dragon blood carries the risk of going out of control, but the little girl doesn't have this problem. Perhaps Lu Mingfei would like to try to replicate the bloodline of this little girl?

Will the methods of replicating bloodlines still be so incredibly powerful?

She looked thoughtfully at the little girl wolfing down her food, seemingly understanding the boss's purpose.

After taking a bath, the little girl's dust was washed away, revealing her delicate little face. Dressed in clean clothes, she looked like a little princess, with excellent natural features.

She said her name was Chu Pandi, a name that had a very feudal and sexist feel to it... The system thought the name didn't sound good, so it just called her Panpan.

While stuffing a KFC chicken leg into her mouth, Panpan mumbled, "Actually, I just wanted to see what rich people's houses look like, and then I heard someone singing..."

Then she thought the singing was quite nice, so she stopped and listened for a while, which is when Chu Zihang noticed her.

Chu Zihang thought it was an enemy and showed his golden eyes to intimidate them. Panpan was indeed intimidated, but she was more delighted, a kind of joy at seeing her own kind.

However, Chu Zihang did not look friendly. After sneaking around Chu Zihang's house, she lingered, hesitant to get to know him. Then she was spotted by the three women who arrived. She tried to leave but was stopped, which led to a conflict. She was taught a lesson before she behaved herself.

[...The other party doesn't seem to be an ordinary hybrid, but they are very intelligent. If their bloodline is stable, we can recruit them...] The system listened to Panpan's story and silently made an analysis.

I sense he's a talented individual. He's a bit young, but he has a lot of room to grow. He's perfect for being groomed into a trusted confidant, just like how Boss Su Enxi groomed Su Enxi and the others...

After interrupting the system's analysis about violating criminal law, Lu Mingfei had been helping to think about Panpan's problem. After hearing Panpan's story, he also felt that the little girl was quite pitiful, and the system also seemed to think highly of her.

"How about we adopt Panpan? But her parents are a problem."

Panpan's childhood was even more tragic than Su Enxi's. Her parents weren't normal; they were drug addicts. While other children were in school, she had to stay home to take care of her abusive parents. Later, they even discussed selling their clever daughter... So, seeing the situation was turning against her, the clever girl simply ran away...

Having witnessed the wickedness of human nature, Lu Mingfei had expectations of Panpan's parents, fearing that they would stick to him like glue once they learned about his situation.

[...His parents can die...]

The system gave a cold, impersonal answer, but Lu Mingfei thought for a moment, maybe Panpan's parents were already dead?

Then the system thought that if Panpan's bloodline was stable... this might be an immeasurable treasure.

If the reason for Panpan's stable bloodline is understood, then those dangerous hybrids who are on the verge of death due to their dangerous bloodline will finally have their benevolent ruler!

Lu Mingfei will bring them hope, just as Moses, holding his scepter, parted the Red Sea and led people across the ocean to the legendary land of Canaan, flowing with milk and honey. His name will be remembered for all time.

And then you'd all wholeheartedly help me accomplish the great feat of slaying the dragon, wouldn't that be too much to ask? Even if only one-tenth of the dangerous hybrids are grateful and usable, that's still a formidable army with extremely high bloodlines and immense strength...

After Panpan finished telling her story, Xia Mi looked at her with pity, as if she felt sorry for the little girl. Then she stopped her from stuffing chicken legs into her mouth: "If you've been hungry for too long, don't eat so much at once, your stomach won't be able to handle it."

“Okay…” Panpan regretfully wanted to reach out and touch her round little belly, but Xia Mi stopped her and used a tissue to wipe the grease off her belly.

After wiping it clean, her large, bright eyes darted around as she observed the people on the table.

Chu Zihang remained expressionless.

The three women who had hit her were exchanging furtive glances without saying a word.

Sister Xia Mi is a good person.

Lu Mingfei's brother is also a good person...

Lu Mingfei felt that this child was really good. He had taken care of his parents for several years despite their circumstances. Although he might still be young and not understand much, he was indeed a good child... The system thought so too.

After the system finished thinking about the problem, seeing that Panpan had finished eating, it turned to Su Enxi and said, "Do you have a dragon blood laboratory? We need to test Panpan's physical condition to see if we can suppress the dragon blood in her body and get her out of the dragon form."

“Yes, but it’s overseas.” Su Enxi nodded. “Send it over now? Then I’ll have my plane come over.”

What should I do about my passport?

Su Enxi said, "Then let's not land at the regular airport, let's just treat it as illegal immigration."

"Ah."

"Brother and sister, where are we going?" Panpan kept her hands, which could not be covered by her sleeves, under the table.

"Go to America."

The system was communicating with Lu Mingfei about whether to go with them. Previously, Lu Mingfei had "nothing," so handing the matter over to Su Enxi and the others was essentially getting free labor.

But now Panpan seems to have something going on. What if Boss Su Enxi insists on taking this treasure?

Lu Mingfei felt he had to go and keep a close eye on things himself, otherwise he would find it hard to feel at ease.

PS: I can't keep up with the follow-up reading at the moment.

Chapter 58 Effort Doesn't Guarantee Success

However, the system saw this as an opportunity to test the other party's bottom line. Although it's not advisable to test people's hearts, testing them to find out their limits would be good for everyone.

Panpan is important at the moment, but relatively speaking, she is not that important, because her value lies in the future, not in the present, and cannot be realized in the present.

The system uses data to quantify a person's value. Panpan's cuteness, understanding, pitifulness... are all meaningless to the system. Direct value is what it values ​​most. She is just a tool, not a task or goal.

Lu Mingfei agrees with the system's idea to some extent, because the system's idea is the optimal solution.

This also made Lu Mingfei begin to wonder, what exactly is humanity? The system's approach is theoretically the most correct... The system silently explained: [...If there are no one left in this world you care about, host, you can do the same...]

Well, Lu Mingfei didn't know how to refute it for a moment.

Once the decision was made to send the person away, the system immediately began to exploit the power of words for free, squeezing out the last possible bit of value: "Panpan, what is your dragon script power?"

The batch of dragon books that Su Enxi sent didn't have dragon script activated because those were all books on dragon common knowledge. The more core, advanced information was forbidden from being taken out of the libraries of various major powers; even those who weren't core members couldn't get in… Not everyone could be directly cracked by the system. Dragon script was inscribed on the remnants of dragon civilization, but its meaning needed to be slowly deciphered, just like archaeologists and philologists slowly deciphering oracle bone script.

These are materials that people worked hard to obtain; how could they possibly give them to you for free with just a few words?

Panpan's Word of Power is the high-level Word of Power "Samadhi True Fire" from the Bronze and Fire King lineage. The name sounds intimidating, but it has no direct killing power. Its greatest function is to create metals within a certain area out of thin air, allowing her to smelt metals with her bare hands. The name originated in ancient China, and because it can create metals out of thin air, sorcerers believed it to be the spiritual fire "Samadhi True Fire".

Although there are no obvious use cases at the moment, it's always good to have more skills, and you never know when you might need them.

Moreover, with the advancement of the Three True Fires and the Sovereign Flame, it might be possible to analyze the authority of the Bronze and Fire Kings.

"...Yin and Yang are the charcoal, all things are the copper, and heaven and earth are the furnace..." Panpan honestly uttered her useless words of power, knowing she was completely in someone else's hands and had no power to resist.

What else could she do? She was still a child.

The system recorded Panpan's words and added them to the decryption team.

To show that she valued Lu Mingfei's opinion, Su Enxi sent a combat-type mixed-race subordinate to personally escort Panpan.

"What is this brother's Word of Power?" The system looked at the towering man.

"Words of Power: Immortality".

Su Enxi and the other two were alright; they knew that Lu Mingfei could learn other people's Word of Power, and that he only needed to know how to activate the Dragon Rune to copy it... so he was extremely interested in other people's Word of Power.

Xia Mi and Chu Zihang, however, didn't quite understand his interest.

Upon hearing the word "word of power," the system immediately tried to ingratiate itself, saying, "Immortality, is that the word of power that can make the human body as hard as steel?"

This Word of Power is truly amazing! It can directly enhance a person's combat power!

"That's right." The man nodded silently.

The system asked, "Could you demonstrate this? I've never seen it before."

The man glanced at his boss, Su Enxi, who nodded silently.

He began chanting dragon script. After a brief chanting session, his body size did not change, but his skin seemed to have gained an inexplicable hard texture.

He raised his arm and bumped it together; the clanging metallic sound was unusually crisp, making one wonder if his heartbeat had turned to metal and stopped beating.

The system silently recorded this incantation and began to decipher it.

After seeing off Panpan, who was reluctant to part with them, onto the plane, Chu Zihang said, "Boss, I want to conduct some combat training."

Although this time he escaped unscathed, it's impossible for every time to escape unscathed. When he looked into Panpan's eyes, an unknown anxiety welled up in his heart, and he once again desperately craved power.

If he possessed not only the swordsmanship he learned at the youth center, but also other powerful abilities, he wouldn't be so anxious and insecure... right?

Chu Zihang was also uncertain, facing Odin, a being suspected to be the Dragon King. Human strength has its limits; even if he strived to become the most powerful human, he would only stand and die before Odin…

"Good idea." The system looked at Su Enxi and the two people beside her, Shude Mai and Zero.

These two are the combatants.

Is it too fast to start the dragon-slaying saga now? There are still many things to deal with.

Buying bread with 10 dollars is different from buying bread with a million dollars, unless the bread is worth 50 dollars...

The system is analyzing and adjusting the plan for the next phase.

Lu Mingfei remained silent, pondering the system's words. He felt something was off, but couldn't quite grasp that vague, elusive feeling.

"By the way, have you found out Panpan's identity?" the system asked Su Enxi.

She nodded: "I found it, it's true. I'll send you the information later so you can see it yourself."

"Ok."

……

The high school curriculum is very intensive; even in regular high schools, students begin reviewing in their final year. Shilan High School, a prestigious school, is no slower. The first semester of the second year of high school doesn't end for another month before they begin studying the second semester's curriculum.

The school organized a course exam for the first semester of the second year of high school as a conclusion, after which we officially started learning at a different stage.

But the overall atmosphere was relaxed, without the pressure of those high school seniors who were about to take the college entrance exam.

However, after the course results for the first semester of the second year of high school came out, the learning atmosphere in Lu Mingfei's class began to become somewhat suffocating and strange.

Lu Mingfei's exam results this time directly surpassed those of Zhao Menghua, who was originally the top student in the class and grade.

Lu Mingfei, sitting in the corner, remained expressionless as they remembered him, watching the teacher on the podium and waiting for the teacher to explain the wrong questions.

Actually, the quality of the top students in their graduating class this year is somewhat lacking. The top student in the senior year is Chu Zihang, a contender for the provincial top scorer, with a guaranteed university and major to choose from. The top student in the freshman year is Xia Mi, who is rumored to be aiming for perfect scores in all subjects; even the prestigious teachers at Shilan Middle School have to be mindful of her mood when teaching.

Only Zhao Menghua, who was originally the top student in their second year of high school, was somewhat lacking. Not only did the teachers have to be mindful of his attitude in class, but he was also far from being able to compete for the top spot. After teaching for so many years, the teachers probably had a general idea—they could say he had a chance, but it wasn't very high.

Now Lu Mingfei has climbed to the top by stepping over Zhao Menghua. Although he only scored 3 points and did not have absolute dominance, it has only been three months since Lu Mingfei changed!

Who dares to say this is his limit? What if he's just getting started?

Liu Miaomiao was, in theory, one of the people who knew Lu Mingfei best. They were classmates for three years in junior high school and another year and a half in high school, so they had known each other for a full four and a half years. They were old classmates and acquaintances.

But at this moment, she truly couldn't tell the difference.

She has a good aptitude for learning, which is why she understands that learning isn't just about hard work. Effort doesn't guarantee success, but not everyone who works hard will fail.
