Today is June 3rd, 156th calendar year of the Red Alliance, which is the twenty-fifth year since I came to this different world. I just graduated from the University of Jersey and participated in an archaeological operation for the first time.
A steep mountainous area twenty kilometers away.
This operation was led by the city government and was a collaboration between the Department of Archeology of the University of Jersey and Fire Deer Antiques Company. Both parties dispatched a ten-member archaeological team and arrived in the Camorra Mountains at noon.
The archaeological operation progressed extremely smoothly, and the team quickly entered the interior of the ruins to explore. There are architectural styles and decorations from the Kalenka period, broken murals, and some ancient documents. Just when everyone was fully engaged in the archaeological work, an accident happened.
Three antique specialists from the Huolu Antique Company suddenly drew their guns and started shooting! Their mentor, a senior brother, and a senior sister died one after another. The remaining four resisted, and although they barely managed to kill one of the antique specialists, the four of them only survived in the end.
One person got down.
And this person is also facing a certain death situation.
The memory flashed back, and Ka Xiu took a shaky breath.
Click, the dark muzzle of the gun was pressed against his head.
"Run? Run for me again!!!" The expression on the face of the man wearing a red and black antique commissioner uniform became more and more ferocious.
Card Xiu moved forward a few steps with the pistol pressed against his head.
In the dark and cramped rectangular passage, Kaxiu stepped back step by step, his boots clicking on the gravel.
Boom! A heavily weathered pillar at the rear suddenly collapsed. Kaxiu, who was leaning on the broken stone pillar, stumbled backwards.
He groaned and glanced at his right hand. The ivory pendant left by his senior brother had pierced his skin, and there was blood in his palm.
Kaxiu now only feels that his mouth is dry and his mouth is bitter.
I'm afraid that this time, all seven people from the Archeology Department of the University of Jersey will die here. As a time traveler who has been reincarnated for twenty-five years, I have done nothing important, so I will be reincarnated again.
Snap! A black boot stepped on his chest.
The gun in the man's hand was always pointed at Cardiff's head.
There was another sound of footsteps in the passage, and another commissioner from Huolu Antiques Company also arrived, both of them holding pistols.
"Why don't you fight hard? You must die with dignity."
As soon as this thought flashed through Ka Xiu's mind, he suddenly noticed that the bitter taste in his mouth was getting stronger and stronger. After a moment, he realized that the bitter feeling did not come from his mouth.
It came from the bleeding wound on the right hand.
The next second, Kaxiu's entire arm felt numb and painful. A stream of cold air flowed out from the ivory pendant, swimming in his hand like a fish.
The cold feeling spread from the arms to the whole body in an instant.
Ka Xiu's whole body trembled involuntarily.
"Haha, look at you! Wasn't it brave to be with your brothers just now? Are you so scared now?"
The man crushed it with the sole of his shoe with great force.
Ka Xiu didn't say anything, he just clenched his right hand tightly.
"What? You were so scared that you wet your pants?"
The man sneered and mocked.
"Don't talk nonsense with him, William, just kill him. We don't have time to waste time here..." Another commissioner came next to him.
"I know, I will send him to see Grand Duke Hongli right away."
The man named William slightly adjusted the muzzle of his gun.
"Goodbye, Ke in the ivory tower..." His voice stopped suddenly, as if the whole world had pressed a pause button.
Card Xiu suddenly looked around. The dim passage, the broken murals, and the two men holding guns suddenly blurred. It was like looking at the world through a layer of frosted glass, and even the turbid and unpleasant air was filtered. He couldn't help it.
Avoid falling into holes.
The whole world was spinning, changing quietly in silence and blur. The air was surging, the earth was shaking, the dome was rising, and Kaxiu's brain was trembling crazily.
Bang!!!
The boy's head hit the wall hard.
"Fuck!" He couldn't help but cursed in pain.
"Levi, are you having nightmares again?" A tired voice came from the side: "Go to bed early, we have to train tomorrow..."
"Levi? Training? What?"
Ka Xiu got up in confusion. In front of him was a narrow gray stone house. There was a window next to it, and the thin moonlight could shine in. There was only a table and a chair in the house, and the largest area was two extremely wide beds.
There were three teenagers crowded on each bed.
The bed he was on was close to the window, and there was a little fat man sleeping next to him. It was the fat man who was muttering just now. Card Xiu stared blankly at his young hands, feeling dazed for a moment.
With his thoughts in chaos, he suddenly noticed.
Above the perspective, a strange symbol is suspended in mid-air, with a long scale similar to a thermometer next to it.
Kaxiu's heart was shocked, and he stretched out his hand to grab a handful.
"Only I can see it! Is it a plug-in?"
Suddenly, a mass of information flooded into my mind like a tide.
Ten minutes later, Ka Xiu suddenly opened his eyes.
Twenty-five years late, he also understood the function and principle of the plug-in. He collected legendary antiques and traveled back to the mysterious era.
There are legendary stories behind it, and antiques that entrust their owners with strong obsessions can be called legendary antiques. And Ka Xiu can absorb a certain obsessional energy in the legendary antiques, replace the owner of the antique, and return to the period of time that he remembered the most.
.
This unforgettable time may be filled with joy, hatred, sadness, or regret. But it must be strong enough.
In fact, most obsessions are hatred and regret.
Or negative emotions like sadness.
What Card Xiu has to do is to dispel the obsession of the original owner, so that he can exist in this period of time for a period of time. During this period of time, everything Card Xiu has learned and practiced can be brought back to reality.
If it fails, there is nothing.
Taking a deep breath, he looked forward.
If you look closely, you will find that the strange symbol is actually the simple pattern of an ivory pendant. Kaxiu absorbed the obsessional energy in the pendant and activated his ability at the critical moment.
The scale next to the pendant symbol represents time.
What he is experiencing now is the first experience that the pendant owner Levi has remembered deeply, and it is also his first obsession.
With a thought from Ka Xiu, the pendant symbol instantly unfolded.
The lightning flashing across the sky, the humid rainy night, the girl's scream, and the cowardly boy hiding in the corner shivering.
This is a sad story. A young boy and his sister were selected into a youth training camp of Feng Xiangmen, a martial arts school. On the way to the toilet at night, the sister was blocked by three drunken rogue students, and her clothes were almost torn off.
Stripped naked.
My sister screamed for help, and the boy heard it and saw it by the window. But he was so cowardly that he huddled in the corner and did not dare to come forward.
The incident didn't end until other students were awakened.
And this incident quickly spread throughout the youth training camp. Women in this era are relatively conservative. The boy's sister was quickly criticized, but no one cared that she was the victim.
A few days later, news came from the boy's hometown that his mother had died unexpectedly. Under a double blow, his sister, who was already under great psychological pressure, committed suicide. This became Levi's regretful obsession.
Why did you cowardly hide in the corner on that rainy night?
Why don't you dare to rush out and beat up those gangsters?
Why did you never think of comforting your sister afterwards?
Is it weakness? Is it fear? Is it the boy’s strange and disgusting pride? Maybe, it’s all...
Levi wanted to make amends, but it was too late. He comforted himself again and again, but found that even he could not forgive the cowardly young man. This became his obsession.
"is that so?"
Kashu opened his eyes again and murmured to himself.
Rumble... there was a burst of thunder from the clouds in the sky.
Ka Xiu suddenly looked out the window. He didn't know when it had started raining, and the hazy raindrops kept falling downwards.
"Ah! Help... um..."
Amidst the sound of rain, a girl's exclamation or two could be faintly heard.
