Lu Mingfei doesn't want to be a superhero

Chapter 87
In front of the Salvador family.

The moonlight shone on the path mottled with historic sites, and the shadows of the five people were stretched very long.

The doorman in El Salvador froze for a moment.

I got up and saw the master taking a walk at night and brought back four young people.

When the master approached, the guard realized that he hadn't fallen asleep and dreamed while on duty late at night, so he hurriedly opened the door.

I made an appointment to meet at the abandoned small theater before, mainly because I couldn't trust the hunters from outside.

Although he still can't trust the four unfathomable young people in front of him, but when Lu Mingfei and the others first arrived, he had already invited them to his home as guests.

It's almost like leading a wolf into a house.

So there's no need to hide it now, instead of negotiating while feeding mosquitoes in the wild, it's better to go home and talk.

Although his daughters Shaya, Cersei and granddaughter Su Xiaoqiang have little fighting ability, his son and grandson Tulio at least inherited some blood, enough to light up the golden eyes and release the spirit of speech.

During the day, he had forcefully moved the women at home to a safe place. At this moment, apart from the hired servants, there were only his son and grandson, who were fully armed and hiding at home, waiting for action.

"Please." The guard opened the door, and the old patriarch led Lu Mingfei and the others into the small manor.

His son and grandson are now hiding in the courtyard of this small manor. He has no intention of killing people, but as the head of the family, he must be responsible for everyone's safety.

Chu Zihang and Su Xi had not taken two steps into the door, and suddenly stood still, their eyes fell on two inconspicuous corners of the courtyard.

Old patriarch: ...

"Come out, Brother Tulio," Lu Mingfei shouted towards a corner, "Don't feed mosquitoes outside at night, come inside with us."

Old patriarch: ...

see hell.

His son and grandson were all trained by him in the Portuguese special police force, which is one of the most professional and elite anti-terrorist forces in Europe.

If Lu Mingfei knew what he was thinking, he would definitely complain about what the Portuguese special police force is. The janitors in our college are all retired elite Navy SEALs, so every time we recruit people, we have to count down a lot.

"Roger, Tulio, come out, they... are not enemies." The old patriarch said.

Roger?Lu Mingfei was stunned for a moment, thinking that someone from the studio of One Piece had crossed over.

Seeing Su Xiaoqiang's uncle and Tulio coming out of the corner respectively, he realized that "Roger" should be Su Xiaoqiang's uncle, that is, the name of Tulio's father.

Not to mention, my uncle's rough beard and majestic height really looked a bit like Roger.

"Brother Lu Mingfei? You?" Tulio looked blankly at the three acquaintances in front of him.

A few days ago, he wanted to take Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang to the red light district.

……

In the reception room.

The reception room is quite spacious, and it doesn't look crowded for seven people.

The maid poured tea for everyone in the house, and was sent out under the order of the old patriarch.

"Four, if there is nothing wrong in the entrustment agreement, there should be only one hunter who accepted my entrustment." The old patriarch turned his gaze to Lu Mingfei, "And I didn't even know that Xiaoqiang's friend was also a hunter."

He emphasized the word friend deliberately.

"We are a team of hunters. It is an excuse to come to Portugal for academic research. In fact, we came here in advance to prepare for the mission. We just didn't expect that the family of the little angel is our employer. This is indeed a coincidence," Lu Mingfei said without changing his face. As Old Tang introduced, "This is our captain, Ronald Tang."

Although this was a plan that had been drawn up before, Old Tang still felt a lot of pressure when he heard Lu Mingfei say this on a formal occasion.

He is a half-breed rookie who is only famous on the hunter website, how can He De dare to become the "captain" of the secret party elites.

But after all, the plan was like this, so he could only bite the bullet and pretend to be a big boss, and said, "Chief El Salvador, your entrustment this time is very difficult for us."

"What?" The old patriarch already had a guess in his mind.

"According to the results of investigation by me and my...team members, your granddaughter's disappearance may be closely related to the local Solomon's Temple branch," Old Tang said, "It's even an irresponsible guess. I suspect that the branch hall here tied her up."

Although he was mentally prepared, the old patriarch's hands still shook, and he lowered his eyes to hide the shock in his eyes. He sighed: "As expected of the famous hunter Ronald Tang, there have been rumors on the hunter website before that you are not actually He doesn’t have much strength, and his fame and completion of several dangerous big commissions all depended on luck. Now it seems like it’s just a rumor spread by some jealous people.”

Old Tang was a little embarrassed, and said to himself that this was really not a rumor, and that I got to where I am today just by luck.

He is naturally more resistant to those supernatural events, oh, they should be called dragon events now. For example, if someone enters an ancient tomb and is affected by a hallucination trap, he will not be affected.

Or when others encounter mummies or fraudulent corpses, he has never encountered them. Even if someone attracts dangerous things such as zombies or tomb guards, he will not be hunted down. Will bite the original target and not let go.

So some people in the industry gave him the nickname "Lucky Tang".

Of course, these words cannot be said to one's own employer. No matter how good luck is, it is not as reassuring as being strong.

"Now you should be able to have an open and honest exchange with me," Old Tang said, "You have seen my mission completion record, I never miss, so please believe that I want to save your granddaughter just like you , so as not to tarnish my flawless resume."

This is a common phrase used by hunters. Everyone is a dirty adult. If he says that he is a messenger of justice, no one will believe him, but if he says that he wants to protect his professional reputation, it seems very reasonable.

"What you have found is correct. My granddaughter Amber was indeed kidnapped by Solomon's Temple, but..." the old patriarch sighed deeply, "To be precise, she was not kidnapped, but Betrayed by my granddaughter Irena."

Old Tang and the others were stunned.

Lu Mingfei couldn't help but confirm: "The Irena you mentioned is the cousin of the little heavenly girl."

"Yes." The old patriarch sighed.

Even Lu Mingfei couldn't help being a little surprised.

He imagined many possibilities, one of which was that Irena betrayed her family and joined Solomon's Temple, but he always felt that the possibility of such a thing was very low.

After all, Su Xiaoqiang has been talking about how nice, gentle and kind her cousin Elena is, and Lu Mingfei subconsciously thinks that Elena is unlikely to be a bad person.

Now listen to the words of the old patriarch...

"Irena was the one who sent Amber into Solomon's Temple, but I am the one who is responsible for all of this." The old patriarch closed his eyes in pain.

"Grandpa..." Tulio's expression was tangled.

The four of Lu Mingfei looked at each other, and even Chu Zihang could see a little doubt in his eyes.

Lu Mingfei suddenly remembered what Susie said yesterday when she teased him that he might be regarded as the hope of continuing the bloodline by the Salvador family - "Generally speaking, this kind of family whose inheritance is in danger will instill in its family members the 'Continuing the lineage at all costs' mentality."

After thinking for a moment, he asked the old patriarch: "Could it be that it is because you instilled in your children the idea of ​​"continuing the bloodline at all costs" that led Irena to go astray?"

The old patriarch and his descendants were stunned.

"That's right," the old patriarch said with a wry smile, wrinkling the wrinkles on his face, "This is my mistake, but fate has punished my descendants."

Tulio opened his mouth to defend his grandfather, but in the end he couldn't say anything.

The old patriarch waved his hand, indicating that Leo didn't need to say anything, and immediately began to tell the story:

"Among my children, only my eldest son, Roger, and my eldest daughter, Tia, inherit the lineage and can light up the golden pupil. I told them since I was a child that we are the noble Salvador family, and our ancestors were once glorious dragon slayers. You are the royal family of Taifa. You are the hope of continuing the bloodline and reviving the family. At that time, I was steadfast in everything I did, thinking that in order to continue the dragon blood of the family, I could do anything at all. Roger and Tia were also affected. my influence."

"Roger is before you now, his son Tullio and his daughter Irena, who have also inherited dragon's blood. My other two daughters, and their respective daughters, are ordinary people of weak blood, even Even the golden pupils can't light up, so they can hardly be regarded as a mixed race."

"When Turio and Irena were young, I also warned them like I warned Roger and Tia, but I was already shaken at that time, because Roger and Tia paid a lot under my influence. Too much. I began to doubt my thoughts, is it really right to sacrifice the happiness of my family now for the glory of the future?"

"Later, as I got older, I became more shaken, and Turio and Irena also grew up. In the end, because of something, I completely regretted what I did before."

When the old patriarch said this, he suddenly paused and turned to look at Tulio: "Before that happened, this kid didn't run to the red-light district every day like he does now, he was originally a hardworking and outstanding young man. "

Turio looked embarrassed.

The old patriarch continued: "Because of that incident, I gave up the continuation of the bloodline. I only hope that my descendants can get their own happiness. Even if the family name and glory are cut off, I think it is worth it."

"But Irena is different from me. Perhaps she was too deeply influenced by me when she was a child. She didn't understand my remorse, so she had a big fight with me, accusing me of betraying the glory of my ancestors, and then left the family."

"When we saw her again, that child had already joined Solomon's Temple," Roger said with clenched fists, "This is not only my father's fault, but also my fault. When she and Tulio were young, I also agreed The idea of ​​a father is to put the continuation of the family above the happiness of the children, I... am not a qualified father."

As Elena's father, his performance has been quite calm, but occasionally you can still see complex pain in his eyes and expressions.

"Dad..." Tulio put a hand on his father's shoulder and remained silent.

The four of Lu Mingfei looked at each other, helpless to deal with the suddenly depressed and suppressed atmosphere.

They haven't experienced this kind of thing.

Lu Mingfei... don't mention it, before meeting Tony, no one expected him to accomplish anything - oh, my aunt hopes that he can get into a good university, but he can't be better than her son Lu Mingze , so that she can not only have an explanation for the money sent by Lu Mingfei's parents, but also feel proud in front of Qiao Weini.

Chu Zihang is the son of a super hybrid, and even if he has not awakened his blood, his tenacious and single-minded personality is destined to make him not an ordinary person.

Susie...Her family situation is quite special, but at present, she doesn't have the troubles of continuing the bloodline like the El Salvadors.

Old Tang is an orphan. Since the old hunter who adopted him passed away, he has lived a life without father and mother. He has nowhere to experience the troubles of his family.

Lu Mingfei originally thought that the old patriarch's story was over, but he didn't expect the atmosphere to be silent for a while, and the old patriarch spoke again:
"Elena only contacted us a few times after joining Solomon's Temple. She told us that Solomon's Temple will have a special technology that can carry out genetic screening and genetic matching between mixed races to ensure that the two A mixed breed produces quality offspring."

"The original intention of this technology is to help those high bloodlines find a hybrid that matches their genes, and give birth to a high bloodline that can maintain a stable offspring. Although the success rate is not 100%, it is quite impressive, so that A strong family lineage can be optimized from generation to generation."

"However, this kind of technology is generally only for male high-level hybrids, because once it fails, the child born will be a powerful dead waiter, who will directly tear the mother's body and come out. High-ranking female hybrids generally do not take this risk of death. .”

"That's why they collect a large number of mixed-race women...Hiss!" Lu Mingfei gasped, "Doesn't this mean that the entire Solomon Temple is engaged in such a heartless business!"

"Maybe, but I heard from Elena that other branch halls act more restrainedly and strictly follow the rules of the main hall," the old patriarch said, "Although the original intention of this technology is to serve high-ranking people, it can also be used by people with low bloodlines." Mixed-race pairing."

"Because ordinary people also have a small amount of dragon gene in their bodies, as long as the pairing is appropriate, the blood of the offspring will be higher if the low-level hybrids are combined with ordinary people, and because the starting point is too low, there is no risk of the child becoming a deadpool."

"Irena said that she originally planned to conceive offspring by herself, but because it only serves male hybrids, Solomon's Temple will only collect female genetic information. She hopes that Tulio will cooperate with her to give birth to excellent offspring for the family."

"It's too hard..." Lu Mingfei couldn't help feeling emotional.

People's situations are different, and he really can't empathize with Elena's thoughts and choices.

"You didn't agree?" Old Tang asked curiously, "To be honest, although this kind of practice seems to be a bit disrespectful of human rights and moral, but I, an outsider, find it very attractive."

When he thought about it carefully, his words were a roundabout way of cursing, saying that this approach was unethical, but he also wondered why the Salvador family did not agree. The subtext could be converted into him doubting the moral level of the Salvador family.

But the old patriarch was not angry, instead showing a trace of shame on his face: "Actually, Roger and I were really moved at the beginning. It was Tulio who woke us up by scolding him, saying that he could not regard a living woman as a reproductive tool , if you really want to agree, then let us two old guys fight in person, he won't go."

Lu Mingfei quietly gave Tulio a thumbs up.

Turio blinked.

"After we refused, Elena stopped talking to us, but occasionally she would hang out with Xiao Qiang and Amber. When we met again not long ago, she... cheated Amber away," said the old patriarch. When she spoke, she seemed to be suddenly old, "We thought she was concerned about the relationship between sisters, but now it seems that she is probably... looking for sacrifices for Solomon's temple."

Lu Mingfei was suddenly frightened.

That is to say, Xiao Tiannv almost switched places with Amber?
"Why didn't you think of guarding against Elena?" he asked subconsciously.

"Who would think so badly of his blood relatives?" Tulio said softly.

Lu Mingfei was silent.
