Dragon Raja: Entry by Lu Mingfei

"Mingfei, it's been a long time."

At that moment, a familiar voice reached Lu Mingfei's ears.

Professor Guderian was standing at the train door, waving and greeting Lu Mingfei.

"Professor, what are you doing here?"

Lu Mingfei said with some surprise.

He had a very good impression of Professor Guderian.

"I'm your temporary mentor. I just came to check on you since I didn't have anything else to do."

Professor Guderian said with a smile:

"I'll also give you some guidance on things to know about new student enrollment, so you can familiarize yourself with the college as quickly as possible. Okay, come on in!"

After getting on the bus, Lu Mingfei and Finger changed into their Kassel College uniforms.

This uniform is the same one Ye Sheng wore when he interviewed them.

The dark green suit was trimmed with fine silver edges, and the World Tree emblem of Kassel College was embroidered on the breast pocket, giving it an overall air of just the right amount of nobility.

After the two had changed their clothes, Professor Guderian asked with a smile:

Coffee or hot chocolate?

"Coffee bar!"

Lu Mingfei hadn't rested much on the plane and was feeling a bit sleepy now.

After taking the coffee, he looked curiously at Professor Guderian's back.

It was a huge painting covered by a canvas.

"Mingfei, let me tell you some important things that every freshman needs to know."

"First, the college requires every student to take an entrance qualification exam, which we call the '3E' exam. Only by passing the exam can one be officially admitted."

"take an exam?"

Lu Mingfei was stunned for a moment.

Didn't I already pass the interview? Why do I need to take another exam?

"Mingfei, don't worry! This so-called 3E exam is just a formality. You're the only S-level candidate in decades!"

Professor Guderian explained.

"That's good."

Lu Mingfei breathed a sigh of relief.

From childhood to adulthood, what he hated most was exams.

Unless the term "academic genius" is added in a future update, I might not dislike it anymore.

"Mingfei, Ye Sheng briefly mentioned the Dragon Clan to you before, but you probably don't have a general impression of them yet, right?"

Professor Guderian said with a smile.

Lu Mingfei nodded, feeling a sense of anticipation in his heart.

Judging from this, is the professor going to actually show the dragon to himself?

The next second, the professor suddenly ripped off the canvas from the giant painting behind him.

Beneath the canvas lies a monumental work of epic scale and apocalyptic grandeur!

In the picture, the sky is a dark blue mixed with the color of flames, like metal that has been melted and then suddenly cooled.

The only giant tree stood alone in the center of the wasteland, its countless withered branches stretching out in all directions, vast and desolate, blocking out the entire sky.

Beneath the giant tree lay piles of white bones. A colossal black beast covered in black scales and bone spurs rose from the skeletal remains. Its body was as thick as a mountain, every inch of its scales gleaming with a cold, hard matte sheen, while the edges were seeping with dark, ghostly flames.

Despair! Deathly silence! Magnificent!

This was Lu Mingfei's first impression of the painting.

Although this black behemoth was merely a figure in a painting, it brought Lu Mingfei an unprecedented sense of shock and oppression.

He could even hear the beast roaring in his ear!

"Is this... a dragon?"

Lu Mingfei's voice trembled slightly.

Is this the target that Kassel College is hunting? And what kind of opponents might he face in the future?

"This is Nidhogg, the Dragon King. Legend has it that he constantly gnaws at the roots of the World Tree. When the roots are completely devoured, the World Tree will decay, and Ragnarok will come. The entire world will be destroyed along with it."

"Professor, you told me about slaying dragons, but you didn't mention that you were slaying a legendary being like Nighogd!!"

Lu Mingfei was shocked.

This Kassel College is definitely not normal.

"Professor! Is it too late for me to get off the bus now?"

"Mingfei, don't panic. This is the Black Dragon King, the emperor of all dragons, the oldest and most powerful being among them! It died thousands of years ago!"

"Our adversaries are naturally not that powerful. Moreover, after thousands of years of accumulation—alchemy, machinery, gunpowder, and the power of words—we now have multiple ways and means to kill dragons. This era belongs to humanity!"

Professor Guderian said in a high-spirited tone.

Lu Mingfei remained silent for a moment.

He increasingly felt that the "life-or-death ordeal" that would befall him four years later was related to dragons.

It's even possible that he joined Kassel College and started the "Dragon Slayer" main quest, which led to his entanglement with the dragon race.

But the concepts of fate and seeing through fate are inherently false.

If he hadn't joined Kassel College, he wouldn't even know who his opponent would be when the catastrophe struck five years later.

The only way now is to become as strong as possible.

So powerful that he could defeat all the dragons.

Even Nidhogg, the Black Dragon King!

A unique youthful ambition ignited in the boy's heart.

"Professor, do you think I can go back if I deliberately underperform during the 3E exam?"

Lu Mingfei suddenly thought of a way to go home.

"Mingfei, you're kidding, right?"

Professor Guderian was startled.

Seeing the old professor's worried face, Lu Mingfei felt a little embarrassed.

After all, Professor Guderian was truly exceptional in his own right.

It seems I shouldn't joke like that with the professor next time.

"Professor, I was just saying. Don't worry, I will join Kassel College."

"That's good, that's good."

Seeing that Lu Mingfei was indeed joking, Professor Guderian breathed a sigh of relief, then asked in a mysterious tone:

"Mingfei, would you like to see a real dragon?"

"Professor, can we see dragons here?"

Lu Mingfei asked in surprise.

This train can fit a dragon, could it be some kind of other-dimensional space?

Professor Guderian clapped his hands.

The study door opened, and a middle-aged man whose face clearly said "I am Japanese" strode in.

He carried a black briefcase in each hand. After placing the briefcases on the table, he bowed to Lu Mingfei and introduced himself in fluent Chinese:

"My name is Masashi Tomiyama, a counselor at Kassel College. It's nice to meet you, our S-class freshman."

"Hello! My name is Lu Mingfei."

Lu Mingfei took the initiative to extend his hand in greeting.

In the past, Lu Mingfei might have felt uncomfortable when a teacher bowed to him in greeting.

But the experiences and growth he has gained over the past two months have enabled him to treat most people and things with a calm and normal attitude.

"We brought two items related to dragons. Both of these are very high-level cultural relics, which we specially borrowed from the student archives."

As he spoke, Masashi Tomiyama opened the briefcase on his left.

After peeling back the layers of foam, Lu Mingfei saw a black scale.

The dragon scales were about half the size of a palm, with a smooth, mirror-like surface that emitted a mysterious glow.

【Dragon Scales】

[Durability: 16/18]

[Tags: Extremely hard, second-generation dragon scale, alchemy material]

"Professor, may I touch it?"

"certainly."

Lu Mingfei placed his palm on the dragon scales; the scales were icy cold and felt like steel.

He couldn't help but picture the former owner of this scale in his mind.

Each scale is the size of half a palm, which gives you an idea of ​​how enormous the owner of the scale must be.

It truly lives up to its legendary status!
