Hogwarts: From Squibs to Greatness

Chapter 162 Planting the Seed
Just when Lu Mingfei was frantically racking his brains to say something to break the silence.

The next second, when he raised his head, he was stunned, because at this moment in front of him, the young man named John, who was introduced by Professor Guderian at the dinner table yesterday, was leaning on the railing on the bank.

The breeze blows his black hair, but I don't know if it's an illusion. Lu Mingfei always feels that the color of the other party's hair should be fiery red like a flame, and those deep black eyes should also be blue like the deep sea.

And the aura of the other party is completely different, he seems to be the center of the world at the moment, and everyone's eyes will fall on him.

Thinking of this, Lu Mingfei couldn't help lowering his head, and the inferiority complex in his heart broke out again.

At this moment, Lu Mingfei heard Chen Wenwen's nervous voice beside him.

"Lu Mingfei, is that your friend?"

"what?"

Lu Mingfei raised his head in confusion, only then did he realize that John, who was still leaning on the railing just now, had walked in front of him at some point and was staring at him.

Only when he gets close, Lu Mingfei can feel the temperament and power of the other party better, especially when paired with the other party's face, there is a kind of mysterious charm.

It was also because of this that Chen Wenwen was a little embarrassed. She was overwhelmed by John's appearance and his aura, not to mention that the other party was obviously a foreigner, or a foreigner who had accepted noble etiquette in the story.

Lu Mingfei faltered and didn't know what to say, but John took the initiative to speak
"Let me introduce myself. My name is John Williams. Nice to meet you, Lu Mingfei." John stretched out his hand and said.

"Oh! I'm also very happy to meet you." Lu Mingfei stretched out his hands to shake John's hand in a panic, "Is there something you came to see me today?"

"Professor Guderian told me that you are excellent, so I want to take a look." John withdrew his hand and paused for a moment, looked Lu Mingfei up and down before continuing to say, "It seems that the professor is right. , Lu Mingfei, you are indeed outstanding."

Hearing John's words, Lu Mingfei's expression changed, while Chen Wenwen, who was beside him, looked at him with incredible eyes.

As if feeling Chen Wenwen's gaze, Lu Mingfei said nervously and subconsciously: "Student John, are you making a mistake? I... am actually very ordinary, not that outstanding."

"It seems that you don't understand yourself, student Lu Mingfei. I can see the power hidden in your eyes. You have a lion in your heart." John continued with a flat face, "Don't underestimate yourself because of inferiority, You may be more talented than you think, you just need a chance."

"But my grades...is it really useful to have a chance?"

For some reason, even though Chen Wenwen was by his side, he still asked this question with some expectation in his tone.

"Student Lu Mingfei wants you to remember that sometimes grades don't represent everything. Your talent does not lie in studying. Your talent lies in other more important aspects. Moreover, it is a bit of a joke to measure a person solely by grades." John looked into Lu Mingfei's eyes and said.

Lu Mingfei suddenly felt a little indescribable. He really didn't expect to hear the recognition of himself from someone he had known for less than a day.

Although Professor Guderian also praised himself yesterday, he always felt that the other party said this to let him enter the academy and for the sake of his parents.

But John is different. He can feel the seriousness of the other party. It seems that the other party really thinks so. He is actually very good, but he doesn't know it and has no chance to show this talent.

After listening to the exchange between the two, Chen Wenwen took a serious look at Lu Mingfei for the first time, but she really didn't see why Lu Mingfei was so good, he still looked so ordinary.

They finally broke up at Sanchakou, Lu Mingfei and Chen Wenwen continued walking, and John went to the other side.

Lu Mingfei looked at the back of John leaving, and the strong feeling in his heart after talking with Nuonuo last night reappeared. He felt that if he refused Kassel's invitation this time, then in the future he would completely have a relationship with this person who recognized him. John became a man of two worlds.

He will drown in this ordinary and ordinary life forever, and it will be rare to glimpse another possibility of life.

Uncle and aunt have treated Lu Mingfei a lot better these two days.

What the aunt talked about was nothing more than asking Lu Mingfei to talk to his parents who seemed to never meet again after he left, and to get Lu Mingze to study in the United States.

Lu Mingze resisted this very much, and pulled his face down at the dinner table and said that even if he went abroad, he had to rely on grades rather than relationships. Lu Mingfei knew that his younger brother was a little bit worried about his shit luck.

Moreover, Lu Mingze is very unhappy these days, because "The Notch of the Setting Sun" is always offline, which makes him anxious like scratching his heart, so he occupies that old-fashioned notebook more and more, not letting Lu Mingfei have a moment of opportunity.

My aunt was talking about Lu Mingze not being able to surf the Internet all the time, and that he should study more to be successful, and at the same time sent Lu Mingfei to buy breakfast milk for tomorrow.

Lu Mingfei walked out the door, and heard Lu Mingze in the room suddenly get anxious for no reason, arguing with his aunt.

Feeling in a mess, he didn't go downstairs, but went all the way up the stairs.

There is no elevator in this building, and the highest is seven floors. The rooftop on the top floor is filled with humming air-conditioning units and vertical and horizontal pipes.

The property has set up an iron gate in the corridor, with the words "the roof is closed" written on it.

In fact, if it is not closed, no one will run up there. The stairs leading to the top floor are a bit like a horror movie. They are full of cardboard boxes, two broken motors, and some broken sofas and wooden coffee tables thrown away by the seventh-floor house. Everything They are all covered with dust, and the gaps are so small that you can't put your feet on them.

Lu Mingfei jumped in those small gaps, like a light kangaroo, he clearly remembered every foothold.

Lu Mingfei got out from the biggest gap on the iron gate, looking at the city under the night sky.

He has been thinking about what he said when he met John. He wanted to say that the other party was wrong. He was just an ordinary bad boy, not as good as he said.

But for some reason, a roaring voice in his heart seemed to tell him that what the other party said was right, his talent was not here, and he needed to seize that opportunity to change his life.

But every time he came here, the self-abased him, the ordinary him would appear, trying to stop this voice.

Then he would think of Chen Wenwen. After they bid farewell to John in the afternoon, Chen Wenwen suddenly said that she would go to the river to have a look.

So Lu Mingfei accompanied her all the way to the river, and saw dandelions blooming on the green grass there, fluffy balls one after another.

Chen Wenwen happily picked a lot and put them in a paper bag together with the bluebells she bought, then sat by the river talking with Lu Mingfei, took off their shoes and soaked their feet in the clear water.

Chen Wenwen said that everyone will be separated when they go to university. Maybe they can only see each other during the summer vacation, or they may not see each other for a long time. This is how many good friends gradually forget each other.

When she said that, Chen Wenwen's eyes were full of sadness, even worse than when she read Duras' "Lover" when she was in school.

Lu Mingfei sat beside her and looked into her eyes, watching the wind blow the dandelions in the paper bag in her arms to fall, and sprinkled on the water, like a light snow.

Lu Mingfei couldn't be sure if this was a hint, but there was a little bird jumping in his heart. Thinking of the plan he had decided, Lu Mingfei's eyes gradually became firmer.

It's just that Lu Mingfei didn't know that a certain seed had been planted, and his feelings for Chen Wenwen would end without a cure, and this bitter feeling would be irrigated on that seed, and a different flower would bloom.

It is not so simple for John to cast magic and Long Wei to speak. John is looking forward to the completely different expression of Lu Mingze after the birth of Lu Mingfei.

Just when Lu Mingfei was fantasizing about his romantic plan.

John was living in an abandoned house in the suburbs at the moment, beheading a humanoid monster with a sword.

Many parts of this monster's body were covered by iron-blue scales, and there were even mutations in many places, transforming into dragons.

The monster's smelly and hot blood splashed on the wall. It seemed that the blood was highly poisonous and corrosive. Suddenly, there were bursts of corrosion in this space, as if the wall had been poured by strong acid, leaving mottled black marks. .

But John's blade was not affected at all, it was still as clear as a spring under the moonlight.

With the help of the moonlight, the scene in the house was also illuminated. A large amount of blood and minced meat were poured everywhere. Such a large amount of bleeding seemed to have spilled all the blood in a human body in this room.

In fact, it is also true. Looking at the broken body in the center of the house, it can be seen how the deceased suffered during his lifetime.

Deadpool, a creature that has been completely degenerated because the purity of the hybrid bloodline exceeds the critical point, can be said to be the most savage and ignorant monster in the world.

But the ridiculous thing is that most of the hybrids who often become dead waiters want to approach the strength of dragons.

But the strength of Deadpool's bloodline close to that of a real dragon seems to decline instead. The reason is that Deadpool loses the ability to use speech, weapons, and combat skills after losing his sanity, leaving only a strong physical quality and bloodthirsty instinct.

However, this does not mean that the hybrids can despise these monsters, because even if they lose their minds, they can easily kill a large part of the hybrids by instinct, and only some elites can easily deal with them.

This is why Kassel Academy implements the bloodline system, because high bloodlines bring high combat power.

Put the Deadpool corpses on the ground into the space, he came here to collect Deadpool corpses for experiments.

Waving his hand, a group of flames flew out of thin air and flew into the tragic room. Suddenly, the raging fire burst into flames, slowly devouring everything in it, and allowing the dead in it to rest in peace.

Not long after John left, he saw several people in uniform feeling here.

When they saw that there was nothing left but a charred room, everyone was at a loss.

In the end, they explored here for a long time without giving up, and finally confirmed that their target was indeed gone.

It's just that they don't know whether the other party has moved the lair, looking for other places to hide, or has disappeared into the flames.
