The blood vessels are about to burst, and the brain is about to boil.
All the pain comes from suffocation. The reason for suffocation is because the neck is stuck in a noose.
The noose was hung on the roof, and his feet were hanging in the air.
This situation looks like suicide by hanging.
A minute ago, a dedicated engineer died suddenly at his job due to the blessings of the 996 work system.
Fortunately, a minute later, the engineer's soul traveled to another world, entered another body, and was reborn.
Unfortunately, the previous owner of this body chose to hang himself a minute ago.
So the engineer came to the new world in the most helpless way.
Limbs become stiff, muscles spasm, and vision begins to blur.
His body is at its limit, his heart will soon stop beating, and his life in this world is about to end.
What did I do wrong? I died twice in a row in just a few minutes!
In the poor man's moment of despair, a soldier rushed in.
"Oh my God! My God!" The soldier turned and left, probably calling someone.
There is such an outstanding soldier in the world, and his brain circuit is so strange. He doesn't come to save people, but runs to call them.
Fortunately, after more than ten seconds, the soldier realized his stupidity and ran back. He hugged the poor man's legs as quickly as possible. After his feet were supported, there was no gap between his neck and the noose.
There was a gap, and after a violent cough, the poor engineer finally took his first breath in the world.
Like a baby, this breath is accompanied by a sharp cry.
"What are you doing, Viscount Victor! Do you want to abandon your people?" The soldier cried and handed him a knife.
Viscount Victor, Reginald Victor, this is his name.
Fragments of memory slowly entered his mind, and the engineer began to understand the world.
Reginald Victor, the only son of the Victor family. Six months ago, the old Viscount Victor, his father, passed away. Seventeen-year-old Reggie inherited his father's title and territory and became the Kingdom of Lane.
Lord of Shattered Snow City on the northern border.
Seventeen years old, only seventeen years old!
He became a viscount at the age of seventeen, and he was also the lord of a city. What is there to be dissatisfied about? Why should he commit suicide?
I really don’t understand what the previous owner of this body was thinking. This young nobleman is too fragile. If he has experienced the hard work of the working class, he will definitely not give up such a beautiful life easily.
The soldier holding Reggie was trembling, and he couldn't hold on any longer.
Reggie looked down at him, searching for memories of him in his mind.
"Your name is Erwin, right?"
The soldier nodded.
"Are you my guard captain?"
"Yes, Lord Viscount."
"Why did you give me a knife? Do you want me to commit suicide in another way?"
"Of course not, my lord, I want you to cut the rope."
After cutting the damn hanging rope, Reggie drove away the guard captain, sat alone in the room, and began to recall the reasons for suicide.
Everything stems from a war. The northern Kingdom of Bayer launched an invasion of the Kingdom of Lane. Ten days ago, Prince Sean of the Kingdom of Bayer led his troops to Broken Snow City.
Reggie believed that there was no hope of winning this war, so he chose to commit suicide.
Stupid coward, he gave up the war just after it started. Even if he couldn't win, he could still escape! Even if he had to bear the humiliation and infamy, he could at least live a comfortable life as a nobleman. At least in the current Reggie's view, this way
Life is not that bad.
There are two pieces of paper left on the table, which were left by "predecessor" Reggie before he committed suicide. They were also his final analysis of the battle situation.
The unfavorable factors are recorded on a piece of paper, and the content is as follows:
Prince Sean has two thousand troops, including five hundred heavy cavalry, and black powder refined by the devil.
What is black powder? It seems to be some kind of terrible weapon.
There are three hundred temporarily recruited militiamen in Suixue City. Most of them are farmers, herdsmen and businessmen. They have never fought in a war and have not received any training.
The militiamen did not have enough weapons, only thirty swords, fifty spears, fifty bows and one hundred daggers.
It was early autumn, and there was no time to harvest the wheat outside the city. The food in the city could only last three days.
The royal capital sent a letter yesterday, and it has not yet been decided whether to accept the war. Because most of the nobles advocate peace with the Bayer Kingdom, no reinforcements will be sent in the next month.
The kingdom's land cannot be lost to rivals. If Snowflake City falls, the king will deprive the Victor family of their title and engrave the Victor family on the kingdom's pillar of shame.
Prince Sean issued an ultimatum today, ordering Reginald Victor to surrender within three days, otherwise he will kill all life in the city.
He was so bragging that Reggie laughed at the prince severely.
If you still want to kill all life, can you kill all the mice? Can you kill all the cockroaches? Can you kill all the bacteria and viruses?
The favorable conditions were recorded on another piece of paper, with only two lines of text, as follows:
Most of the residents of Broken Snow City have fled, and they can still survive.
Viscount Reginald Victor did not surrender, was not captured, and did not die under the sword of the enemy. The glory of the Victor family will last forever!
Looking at "former Reggie's" analysis of the battle situation, and then looking at the hanging rope thrown on the table, Reggie now felt that his evaluation of his predecessor was too harsh, and the situation he faced was indeed very difficult.
Looking at the quaint furnishings in the room, we should still be in the early Middle Ages. Thanks to the cold weapon age, there is no concept of firearms in this world. If the viscount chooses to commit suicide with a gun, he will probably get a bullet on his head.
A big hole, even if you can barely survive through the immunity halo you passed through, you will become a fool, suffer from diarrhea, and spend the rest of your life miserably.
There was a mirror in the room. The reborn Reggie walked to the mirror and looked at his appearance carefully.
A head of gray-green curly hair (the color is a bit strange for hair), a pair of turquoise eyes, deep-set eye sockets, a tall nose, a slender figure, and a height of at least 1.8 meters. In the era he lived in,
, I already have the capital to rely on my face to make a living.
Although the start was not very good, no matter how bad the situation was, he would not choose to die again.
At least you need to see what the enemy looks like, and you also need to figure out what the black powder refined by the devil is.
You still have to look at the wishes of your people. If they don't want to fight, then just run away with them.
Of course, you have to figure out the escape route and make an escape plan. If you don't even have a chance to escape, then surrender to Prince Sean.
After all, he had just become Reginald Victor, and he didn't care about the so-called glory of the Victor family.
Reggie raised his collar and tried his best to hide the scars on his neck. After confirming that his body was not seriously injured, he called the guard captain Erwin and asked him to take him to the top of the city to take a look.
"Lord, you don't have time to go to the city." Erwin pointed to the hourglass at the door and said, "The Administrative Officer has announced an emergency meeting. You must rush to the auditorium immediately. You must be prepared. The Administrative Officer is very worried.
anger."
"Administrative officer?" Reggie looked at Erwin in surprise. Since he is the lord of Shattering Snow City, isn't he the top leader in this city?
Why is there still a political officer? Why can he declare an emergency meeting? Why should I rush there immediately? Why should I worry about his anger?
Maybe this is a common sense question, and it's best not to ask more common sense questions.
Reggie carefully searched for the fragments of memory and finally found information about the Administrative Officer.
Baron Sarnoffbich, a forty-five-year-old political officer, is the second-in-command in Shattered Snow City.
Baron Beech is very powerful, coupled with Reggie's pedantry and cowardice, allowing this political officer to control most of the power in Shattered Snow City.
Since Prince Sean came to the city, Baron Beech has been putting pressure on Reggie, which is also one of the important reasons for Reggie's suicide.
A chill ran down his spine. It seemed that the danger came not only from the enemies outside the city.
Reggie looked at Erwin at the door and asked, "How do I look now?"
"You look well, my lord."
"Do you still remember what happened just now?"
"Just now... nothing happened, Lord."
Very good, this guard captain is quite smart, I hope he is loyal enough to me.
"Erwin, I survived, and now I want to show off."
"Sir, sir," Erwin looked at Reggie in fear, "What show were you talking about just now?"
"Showing is an attitude, a state, and a process of writing legends!"
Erwin looked confused and said, "Should I... express something?"
"You don't understand me?" Reggie smiled, "Then let me put it more simply. I want to survive, let you all survive, and let Xuexicheng survive."
After a moment of astonishment, Erwin nodded vigorously: "I believe you, sir."
"Let's go," Reggie patted Erwin on the shoulder, "Hold your sword and don't leave me even one step."
Come on, captain of the guard, show off with your lord!
