Lu Mingfei Returns from Monster Hunting

Chapter 277 The Feast of the Kings (4k)

"We know that you are the son of Chairman Lu, but the prerequisite for entering this safe haven is to verify your identity and danger, so please answer our questions truthfully."

Lu Lincheng's assistant, Natasha, inserted the last needle electrode into Lu Mingfei's neck.

These needle-shaped electrodes looked bluffing, but in fact Lu Mingfei only felt slightly numb, no different from a hospital hanging water.

"This is currently the most advanced lie detector in the world, and no one has been able to fool its eyes yet."

Lu Mingfei was sitting on a simple wooden chair, and a polygraph was placed on the cart beside him, which looked like a non-recyclable piece of scrap metal.

He is well aware of things like lie detectors, which are nothing more than judging the truth and falsehood of words based on people's brain waves and neural reactions when asking questions.

There is no real lie detector in the world, and the so-called lie detectors are all based on scientific theories.

In front of him, the members of the Haven Committee lined up, and they didn't look very old.

But for mixed races, it is difficult to judge their age just by their appearance.

Lu Mingfei could sense that everyone here has their own powerful aura, which is tempered by time, and their age is definitely much older than it looks.

Lu Lincheng was sitting in the middle of the long table. He was the person in charge of the identity verification, and Qiao Weini was sitting at the corner of the long table. The mother and son looked at each other, and Lu Mingfei shook his head, expressing that he was fine.

"Please briefly describe your name, identity and experience." Lu Lincheng said.

Of course he is clear about these things, and speaking out is just to express his opinion to those committee members.

"Lu Mingfei, Chinese, S-class blood, former Kassel College student, is now wanted worldwide. The secret party thinks I am a dangerous target, and may be a high-level dragon."

Someone glanced at Natasha and asked.

Natasha stared at the lines on the instrument panel: "The nerve fluctuations are normal, and the heartbeat and blood pressure are also within the normal range. He is chatting with us honestly."

A committee member with gray hair on his forehead nodded, turned to Lu Mingfei and said, "In fact, we all know your identity and the reason why you are wanted."

"But here, I think you can clarify the facts for your bloodline. If possible, we will also send representatives to the secret party and the school board to help you clear your identity."

What he said sounds good, Lu Mingfei probably believed it when he was still an ordinary high school student.

The current Lu Mingfei is no longer an immature and impulsive young man, he knows that what the other party said is just to trick him.

As for the "future" and "benefits" described, whoever believes in sand dollars.

His expression was as usual, and he began to make up nonsense...not nonsense, it was half-truth and half-fiction about his own story.

He said that he used to think that he was an ordinary person. Although he yearned for some super powers to save the world, he knew that they were all stories made up in novels and anime, and they were fictional.

It's just that he came into contact with Kassel College the day after tomorrow, and somehow became an S-level student, which he himself felt incredible.

When he said these words, the lie detector machine did not fluctuate, indicating that what he said was "everything is true."

He also said that after entering Kassel College, he miraculously discovered that he had a strong body, and even easily learned the secret technique of violent blood.

"Then can you tell us what your word spirit is?"

"Jingtong can copy the speech spirits that he has seen, as long as he sings the same dragon text, he can use those speech spirits."

Lu Mingfei still spoke in a flat manner, as if he was chatting with the old lady downstairs, and there was nothing unusual about it.

"This ability is very interesting. There is no record of related abilities in the current list of speech spirits." The committee member who asked the question smiled gently, "It was you who killed Norton, the king of bronze and fire, right?"

"I did it." Lu Mingfei didn't think about it. Even though the other party's question was very tricky, he couldn't show any strangeness now, so he admitted it decisively.

And he wasn't lying. Norton was indeed dead, and he killed him himself, although it was a soul.

"This is an important or incomparably great achievement for any mixed race, why not say it?" someone asked.

"Because our hometown firmly believes in the principle of keeping money secret, if the Secret Party knows the secret of my killing Norton, I'm afraid it will only make them more afraid of me. Then I was wanted around the world about a year ago."

"My dear child, it's so pitiful. Don't worry. You are absolutely safe here. If you know anything, you can tell us. We sincerely hope that we can unravel these mysteries for you." Another committee member said.

Lu Mingfei frowned slightly, which looked like a small gesture of inner hesitation in the eyes of outsiders.

In fact, he did hesitate, but after thinking about it, if he could get information about Lu Mingze from these people, it might not be a bad thing.

So he was silent for two seconds after frowning, and then continued: "I can make a deal with a certain devil. He said that as long as he sells 1/4 of my soul to him, he can do anything for me."

The polygraph did not respond.

Natasha's eyes signaled that what Lu Mingfei said was the truth.

"Is it okay to kill the Dragon King?"

"Of course, even become the king of the world, he said so."

"When did this devil appear beside you?"

"The first time I faced Norton." Lu Mingfei said softly, "When I was desperate, he came to my side and gave me the power to cut off bronze and fire."

The committee members exchanged glances with each other, but the polygraph did not respond, which meant that what Lu Mingfei said was the truth.

"Then you also killed the king of the land and the mountain?"

"Yes, I sold half of my soul to kill Norton and Fenrir." Lu Mingfei raised his head slightly, with a little youthful pride and complacency on his face, which convinced the committee that what he said was true and credible.

However, the expression of the committee did not change much. Lu Mingfei thought he had revealed a huge secret, but it seemed ordinary to them.

They were even in the mood to stop for a drink and have a slow chat with him.

The polygraph conference proceeded step by step, everyone took turns to ask questions, and Lu Mingfei answered "truthfully".

Until the end, Lu Lincheng asked his first question in this meeting.

"You've made several... deals."

Hearing this question, Giovanni, who was the recorder in the corner of the conference table, clenched the pen tightly, and this action also revealed her mood.

Lu Mingfei thought for a while, lowered his head, and replied in a deep voice, "Only once."

The lie detector immediately beeped nearby.

"He's lying!" Natasha exclaimed.

All committee members looked at Lu Mingfei in unison. Fortunately, this scene did not appear in the dark, otherwise it would be a bit scary.

Lu Mingfei still lowered his head, and finally hesitated for a long time before saying another answer.

"three times!"

This time the polygraph was as calm as ever.

It's the truth!
Lu Lincheng immediately widened his eyes: "That is to say, son, if you betray your soul again, you will die!?"

"Oh my god, my poor child!" Qiao Wei Ni almost fainted, his face pale to the extreme.

The committee was agitated for a moment by this answer, too.

In the end, no one spoke. Only a scholar named Duden, known as the top expert in the cognitive world, stood up with serious eyes.

"Son, I'm afraid something very bad has happened to you. You are not in danger. What is in danger is something that is following you."

Lu Lincheng's face changed suddenly, and he felt that he would take out a pistol from his bag at any time and shoot Du Deng.

But the gentleman from Germany pressed his palms down, signaling him to be calm.

"The polygraph test proves that everything you said is true. You should be convinced of what you have experienced. You traded with the devil and exchanged your soul for power, and these powers did produce results."

Durden spoke slowly and confidently.

"But a lie detector can't prove that these are facts, it can only show that what you said did not violate your own cognition."

"And there is a huge gap between human cognition and reality. Let me tell you some holes in your story."

"First of all, you said that when the devil gave you power, you would say something for nothing. What does that mean?"

"What did you use to replace the air?"

"Wrong, this sentence is an idiom in English, the original meaning is to get something for nothing. Interestingly, it is also the most simple and crude cheat code in "StarCraft". You should have played that game."

"Yes, so you mean to say that all this is my imagination?"

"No, no, that's good news for you and me. It's impossible to make people have the power to kill the Dragon King just by imagining."

Duden made a judgment and said: "You are probably mentally parasitized by something, limited to your own cognition, the parasite presents a familiar appearance, just like what he called you in your mind. Like a cousin."

"You mean the parasite is manipulating the host?" Giovanni's voice trembled uncontrollably.

"At present, there is no case of higher organisms being controlled by parasites, because the nervous system of higher organisms is too complex, and the ability of general parasites is limited."

Having said that, Duden paused.

"But let's assume... what if the parasitic guy is a dragon king-level monster?"

"Dragon King-level parasites!" A committee member was stunned. "This is much more terrifying than those large dragons that can breathe fire and water."

"We haven't observed the body of this parasite yet, Miss Qiaoweini, your child mentioned the word 'transaction' many times, because the guy who eroded his brain still can't get past Lu Mingfei's will, as long as Lu Mingfei Unless you reject him, he can't act on his own, he is a good boy, a human being who can't lie, he is not our enemy for the time being."

"Then can he stay here?" Giovanni immediately asked.

"We still need 24 hours to make a final decision, but we definitely want him to stay. He is a precious case study. Congratulations in advance for your family reunion." Duden smiled.

Qiao Weini immediately cheered up a lot, while Lu Lincheng pulled off his tie and let out a long sigh of relief.

The committee members stood up and left the venue. Natasha pulled out the tiny electrodes on Lu Mingfei's body. She was surprised to find that the young man who had received the good news did not look up, but was still silently looking at the ground with an unpredictable expression.

Du Deng came to Lu Mingfei and patted him on the shoulder.

"Congratulations to your child, please keep your bravery and original human heart."

"Thank you, I will." Lu Mingfei said with his head down.

Duden nodded and left, and other committee members also dispersed in twos and threes. Qiao Wei Ni and Lu Lincheng gathered not far away to discuss what to have for dinner today.

No one saw Lu Mingfei's expression, and no one could.

That teasing smile on the corner of his mouth.

……

The hovercraft retreated to the last bunker to fill up the fuel tank and set off again. It didn't take half a day for the four people on the hovercraft to see the blizzard again.

Su Enxi sat upright in the co-pilot's seat, extremely serious, like a female boss who controlled a tens of billions of companies, giving orders, majestic.

"Close your eyes, turn on the autopilot, go straight, and drive straight into the eye of the wind!"

Old Tang was taken aback: "This is not the Great Plains. The autopilot system can't handle the complex terrain. We may fall into the Great Glacier Rift Valley!"

"You know what! The interface of the Nibelungen itself can confuse people. You think you are walking in a straight line, but you just bypassed an obstacle and returned to the original channel. This is a large maze, and it is not those who deceive you. A child's maze."

"We have been walking around this storm before, but the machine will not be confused. If you want to get close to the center of the storm, the automatic driving system is more reliable than your eyes." Su Enxi said coldly.

"Suddenly I'm a little afraid of death..." Old Tang said timidly after the alcohol subsided.

"What are you afraid of? If you are a ghost, is there a young and sexy girl like my old lady accompanying you? Your life is worth more or my life is more worth it?"

Just as Old Tang was about to say something, Christina beside him suddenly opened her eyes.

"I got it!"

"What did you realize?"

"I've read some Chinese folk novels before. This phenomenon seems to be called ghosts hitting the wall. When you encounter an endless staircase, you have to keep your eyes closed and go down, because the one who really deceives you is not the ghosts hitting the wall but you. s eyes!"

Christina looked a little agitated.

The corner of Su Enxi's mouth twitched: "That's right, you still have some understanding."

"It's so easy to break into the Nibelungen?" Old Tang was still a little doubtful.

"Of course not, the Dragon King is not a charlatan who can only play tricks," Su Enxi glanced at Zero.

"The last key is the youngest and cutest sister Ling among us, and it depends on you."

"she?"

Christina was stunned, because she re-examined this sentence twice, but after all, she didn't find any difference in her.

It is true that it is small and cute.

Su Enxi didn't bother to answer this question, she turned her head back.

Under the violent driving of Zero, the hovercraft has already been soaring on the snow field, and the white wind and snow outside the windshield is hitting desperately.

Seeing this, Su Enxi sighed for a long time.

"I must be crazy to take a few pet cats and dogs to the feast of the kings."
