Chapter 21: Gifted

"The history of the hybrid race can be traced back to the first history of mankind, when the earth was still red earth and the fire of civilization had not yet been ignited, when the only intelligent race of the century, the dragons, ignited humanity and taught humanity how to use fire and tools. It was a time that symbolized the light of enlightenment for human civilization, but it meant the beginning of endless slavery, and the dragons did not train humans as partners, but to raise excellent livestock and train qualified slaves to satisfy their desire for conquest and violence, and the human race at that time was miserable. ”

Standing in front of the drawing board, under the gaze of Lin Nian and Lin Xian, Manstein whispered another history that was not written in textbooks: "When human civilization and wisdom developed to a certain extent, the spark of revolution and rebellion naturally ignited, so the first generation of humans made an attempt to leap forward - they tried to mate with the weak dragons who were not too strong, but in the end, the human girl was not born as a half-breed but a monster between humans and dragons, which only chased high-purity dragon blood - Deadpool. ”

When he said this, Lin Nian subconsciously frowned, but Manstein's expression was extremely calm: "It stands to reason that I shouldn't tell you these histories directly now, I should wait for your ability to accept them before going to the archives to apply for reference, but I think that applying to Norma with your authority will not be refuted, so now I am just teaching you in advance." ”

Fingal, who was quietly drinking hot chocolate on the side, glanced at Manstein cautiously, and was a little surprised in his heart, and secretly sighed in his heart that he was worthy of being the chairman of the Discipline Inspection Committee for so many years, and he could tell the violation of the school rules so reasonably.

Seeing that Lin Nian had no objections or rebuttals, Manstein continued: "After the birth of a monster like Deadpool, ancient humans once thought that the act of hybridization was not feasible, but some undying pioneers mustered up the courage to wait for Deadpool in the captive iron cage to tear the mother and then let the new girl mate with it, and finally gradually sifted out the pure bloodline, and finally gave birth to a stable newborn, which is the first generation of hybrids. ”

"It's ridiculously disgusting." Lin Nian made a blunt evaluation, and Lin Xian on the side also nodded slowly.

"History has always been ugly, in fact, if you go to the archives alone in the future to apply for borrowing the relevant historical text, you will find that the text does not have the paragraph about 'Deadpool' that I talked about, but skips this stage, and records that "humans and dragons directly gave birth to the first generation of hybrids", the reason for this is that considering that too bloody history will lead to some students with psychological problems, they will hate their own bloodline and have the idea of suicide. Professor Manstein said calmly.

"I've heard from Mandy that you've always been a very old-fashioned person and would never break the school's bylaws, but it's clear that what you're doing now isn't in line with your rules." Lin Nian looked into Manstein's eyes and said.

Manstein was not afraid to look at Lin Nian, and said lightly: "I just think that bluntly speaking about this history is beneficial and harmless for some students who are too good, because I have seen students who are too good in blood go astray in pursuit of the so-called 'power' and 'better bloodline', and their final outcome is to become Deadpool and be buried by their colleagues with their own hands." ”

"So you mean I'm a half-blood, and the half-blood part of the "dragon blood" is excellent? Lin Nian pointed to his chest and asked.

"Exceptional." Manstein bowed: "In the words of Principal Angers: he is one of the most promising dragon slaying seeds he has seen in the last hundred and forty years. ”

"Flattered." Lin Nian just shook his head slightly and said: "But with all due respect, I fell over the wall in the orphanage when I was a child and injured my legs and head, and when I was sent to the hospital for filming, the doctor didn't say that I had horns on my head or my leg bones were bent backwards - I am a complete human being." ”

"Really?" Manstein asked rhetorically, "But you can do things that ordinary humans can't do, can't you?" ”

Lin Xian, who was beside Lin Nian, directly retorted: "There are always talented people in the world. ”

"So most of the talented people now, those excellent points are actually from the same origin, and most of them are mixed-race." Manstein said: "As for the deeds of you entering the hospital when you were a child, I can only tell you that the dragon blood in your body is recessive, and when you perform some kind of ritual, it will only undergo a visible change, so as to completely intensify your bloodline and carry out a sublimation!" ”

"Do you need me to sit in a stove boiled with the blood of beasts, and let the shaman next to me dance the great god with a branch?" Hearing the extremely magical word of ritual, Lin Nian couldn't help but make a joke.

"No, although the ritual you are talking about does exist and has some degree of viability," Manstein said after a moment's thought.

Lin Nian was stunned for a moment, his expression was a little stunned, because after getting Manstein's admission, he couldn't help but jump out of his mind When he arrived at the academy, he was naked in a big iron cauldron, and the scene of Manstein, Mandy and Fingal dancing around the iron cauldron with branches on the side.

"But the immature processes you mentioned have long been eliminated with the change of time, and now we advocate science." Manstein noticed that he had lost his words, scratched his eyebrows without leaving a trace, coughed twice, and said, "Anyway, there will be no mess, we will just listen to you an audio to resonate with you and awaken your bloodline." ”

"Sounds even more mysterious." Lin Nian said euphemistically: "To be honest, I don't think I have the potential of a half-breed, maybe you really recruited the wrong person, as for my 'excellence', it's just that I have a faster response and a little more strength, and well-trained athletes are actually better than me." ”

"It's rare for our college to make mistakes in admissions, let alone students specially recruited by President Angers." Manstein showed 10,000 confidence, because in his opinion, if Lin Nian was completely ordinary, there was an extremely small possibility of "misplay", but now Lin Nian had already shown abnormalities in his daily life, which could be regarded as a precursor to the awakening of the real dragon bloodline.

"You give me a bit of a sense of admiration, I haven't even met the headmaster you said about Angers, so I really don't know where your confidence comes from." Lin Nian said helplessly: "Actually, compared to me, I think that a senior in the same school as me is more suitable for your judgment criteria, because I always play basketball with him to a tie, and sometimes I even lose to him, and sometimes I think he is better than me." ”

"Then your senior must be the main force of the basketball team." Manstein said: "Someone with technical expertise will always be better than others in some things, and if you play basketball with him, it doesn't mean that he is better than you, but it shows that you have better potential than you are trained without professional training!" ”

"But that's not what I meant..."Lin Nian sighed, he felt that he couldn't make sense no matter how much he said.

"But what is it that makes you so reluctant to believe in the existence of dragons?" Manstein asked.

Lin Nian was speechless for a while, and after thinking for a long time, he said, "Maybe... It's because it's too bizarre, I can't believe in the existence of dragons because I'm quick to react and have better physical fitness... These two are not an order of magnitude thing! ”

"But I believe that you should always have a fear and a desire to explore your 'giftedness' in your heart." Manstein looked at Lin Nian quietly for a while and whispered, "The feeling of being born unique is actually not pleasant, right?" You will subconsciously hide and disguise yourself to make yourself look no different from ordinary people, because you are afraid that one day your special will be discovered, which will invite disaster to destroy you... Or someone close to you. ”

Lin Nian's face twitched, and he pressed himself without turning his head to look at the person beside him.

"But when you find the same group of people who are as special as you, it doesn't happen, because we're all special, and when you get along with a special group of people, you're normal, don't you aspire to be a 'normal person'?" Manstein's always serious face calmed down after he said: "We are almost at the academy, I just want to help you do a good job of psychological counseling as much as possible, because the truth of the world is there, you don't look at it, it is also there quietly and cruelly." ”

The light outside the window suddenly brightened, it turned out that the CC1000 express train rushed out of the long red pine forest, and suddenly there was bright sunlight shining into the car, just falling on the sharp picture, the black dragon shining brightly, and the golden eyes were as lifelike as if they were alive.

Lin Nian turned his head to look out the window, and his vision in the distance widened, and he saw that there was an evergreen low mountain in the coniferous forest in the distance, and the academy buildings like castles in the mountains were faintly visible, everything was like a myth and fable shrouded in a hazy mist, making it difficult to distinguish between the real and the unreal.

"If everything the professor says is true, dragons do exist, and I'm a half-breed of dragons... Then ask the professor to prove it to me! Lin Nian retracted his gaze and looked at Manstein and said, "I'll wait and see." ”

When Professor Manstein nodded slowly, Lin Xian, who was leaning on the table, looked at Lin Nian and showed a smile for no reason, facing the sun very brightly.
