Before we begin, I'd like to ask you a question.

Lu Mingfei looked up at them. "What do you think is the meaning of life?"

Ye Sheng and Jiu Deyaji's bodies trembled slightly, as if the world that had just been blasted apart by bombs had been plowed up again by swarms of missiles.

What is the meaning of life?

What an ultimate philosophical question this is!

There is no standard answer to this question either. You can answer that the meaning of life lies in exercise, or you can answer that the meaning of life lies in eating, drinking and having fun. Every answer can be a meaning of life!

Ye Sheng and Jiu Deya looked at each other, their expressions unusually serious when Lu Mingfei asked the question. They were unsure whether a casual answer would cause Lu Mingfei to change his mind and abandon the interview.

"Is the meaning of life simply living?"

Ye Sheng spoke cautiously, glancing at Lu Mingfei's expression as he spoke.

Lu Mingfei's expression remained indifferent, revealing no positive or negative reaction on his face, while Ye Sheng was already covered in sweat.

An unprecedented sense of tension rose within him, and in a daze, he felt as if he had returned to his junior high school days, when he was a mischievous little boy who liked to pull the braids of the girls in his class.

The girl would run to the teacher crying to complain, so the teacher would grab his ear and drag him to the office, cross his arms and look down at him, asking if he still wanted to continue studying, and if not, to call his parents right now.

The thing I feared most during my school days was having my parents called. Ye Sheng was no exception. So he was so nervous that his legs were shaking and his forehead was sweating. He said all sorts of nice things to the teacher, saying that he was wrong and begging the teacher not to contact his parents.

No matter what he said, the teacher remained indifferent, arms crossed, just staring at him without saying a word.

Same as now.

But Lu Mingfei's gaze was far more oppressive than the teacher's. Ye Sheng felt as if he were being stared at by a lion, and a huge fear exploded in his heart. The teacher appeared in front of him again, sternly questioning whether he still wanted to continue studying.

His whole body began to tremble, his expression contorted, and his eyes slowly widened as if he had seen something unbelievable. Large patches of sweat streamed down his face.

"Ye Sheng?"

Sakeya noticed that Ye Sheng was acting strangely and gently shook his shoulder.

"I'm fine."

Ye Sheng finally woke up from the huge illusion. He returned to the conference room, where Jiu Deya sat next to him with a concerned look on his face, while Lu Mingfei across from him turned his head to examine the replica of the famous painting on the wall.

"We're sorry, we can't answer your question, Lu Mingfei."

After confirming that Ye Sheng was really alright, Jiu Deya turned to look at Lu Mingfei, "Everyone will have their own answer to this question. I don't know what happened to you, but if you really want to know the answer to this question, you can only find it yourself... It just so happens that Kassel College has philosophy courses, and the teacher in charge of teaching this course can probably give you better advice."

She still hadn't given up on the idea of ​​bringing Lu Mingfei to Kassel College.

"So you know what I've been up to lately, right?"

Lu Mingfei asked.

Realizing he had let something slip, Shutoku Aki paused for a few seconds, then nodded.

"Yes, we heard about your situation, so we sent a student to visit you and deliver the interview invitation. However, because she wasn't familiar with the city, she arrived at the hospital after visiting hours, so we had to have your attending physician pass the interview invitation on to you."

"Actually, this interview was specifically designed for me, right?"

Lu Mingfei leaned back in his chair, looking straight ahead, but both Jiu Deyaji and Ye Sheng subconsciously raised their heads slightly.

At the same time, they were also surprised, because Lu Mingfei was right; this interview was indeed designed specifically for Lu Mingfei. As for the other students, they were just brought in as reference points, and no matter how brilliant their answers were, they wouldn't pass.

The interview had already pre-selected the sole successful candidate, who was Lu Mingfei. They had flown across the ocean specifically for Lu Mingfei.

But these things were all done in secret, so Lu Mingfei shouldn't have known.

"Lu Mingfei, it seems you've misunderstood something..."

Jiu Deya wanted to argue a bit more, but if Nuonuo and Professor Guderian knew that the interview wasn't over yet and that Lu Mingfei had guessed all their thoughts, she and Ye Sheng would definitely be posted on the college forum as negative examples!

"Let me guess what your school does."

Lu Mingfei interrupted her, looking into her eyes, "You're a mysterious organization like the Men in Black in the movie, right? But you claim to study ancient reptiles, so it's highly likely that you dug up some incredible species from the ground? It shouldn't be a creature like a dinosaur, dinosaurs have been dug up to death by now..."

Lu Mingfei suddenly stopped, his eyes narrowed, and he slowly uttered a single word:

"dragon?"

Jiu Deya and Ye Sheng were overcome with fear; they had no idea how Lu Mingfei had figured things out step by step.

They only asked a few questions, and the college website address on the interview invitation was just a make-up website. You couldn't possibly get any information about it from there. If an ordinary person looked up the name of Kassel College online, they would only find that it is a great and rich private university.

Kassel College is indeed no ordinary university. It was established in the last century with the mission of searching the world for dragon tombs, digging them up, and then accomplishing the feat of slaying dragons.

The concept of "dragon" exists in the myths and legends of various countries. Scientists have presented a lot of evidence to show that dragons are impossible, but many people in the world still firmly believe in the existence of dragons. They have traveled to the most dangerous places in the world in the hope that one day they will find traces of the existence of dragons.

Kassel College is one of them. The only difference is that while others are still looking for evidence to prove the existence of dragons, Kassel College has been dealing with dragons for a long time.

They kept this secret hidden, and ordinary people couldn't access it.

Logically speaking, before Lu Mingfei joined Kassel, he would have thought, like other ordinary people, that the concept of dragons only existed in myths and legends.

But now, Lu Mingfei has guessed Kassel's biggest secret without following any logic at all.

What the hell is wrong with this person?!

Ye Sheng roared inwardly.
