Lu Xiao couldn't understand the method the system used to allow him to communicate with various worlds.
In his subjective feeling, he just closed his eyes and left the world of Assassin's Creed in the blink of an eye, returning to a familiar yet unfamiliar rental house.
He was familiar because this was his home where he had lived for three years, and unfamiliar because he had been away from his room for four years. Everything in front of him gave him a strange sense of dissonance.
"Huh~"
The dizziness of traveling through time and space made Lu Xiao lean on the armrest of the computer chair and relax for a few minutes before recovering.
Everything familiar in front of him made his memories that had been buried for four years become vivid again.
The fat house happy water and fragrant chicken that Lu Xiao was enjoying before traveling through time were still placed on the computer table. Judging from the crispy skin of the crispy chicken, Lu Xiao's four years in the mission world seemed to have nothing to do with the main world. The main world
It seemed like only a moment had passed since he left.
"The time in different worlds is not the same? If you think about it carefully, this seems to be a matter of course."
Lu Xiao had seen a scientific hypothesis before. Time and space cannot exist independently. When space changes, time must also be affected to a certain extent.
Lu Xiao is not a scientist, so he doesn't know how to explain the changes in time when space changes, but judging from the current situation, at least he can draw a simple conclusion.
The time spent in the mission world will not significantly affect his normal life in the main world. He will still have to squeeze into the subway early in the morning to go to work... provided that Lu Xiao is still willing to work in the company.
After four years of turbulent life as an assassin, Lu Xiao suddenly returned to the peaceful modern city. Lu Xiao always felt an indescribable sense of disharmony, as if she shouldn't belong here.
‘Is this the inevitable side effect of returning from various worlds? A sense of separation from the real world?’
Lu Xiao, who was sitting on the computer chair, raised his hand and rubbed the center of his brow. The gauntlet he was still wearing suddenly stopped his movements.
Lu Xiao took off all her gear and went into the bathroom to take a hot bath. Then she put on her home clothes again and looked at the golden bracelet on her left arm in a daze.
"Is it immortal? This passive effect is very useful in the mission world, but it will bring a series of problems in the real world."
Lu Xiao is not a standard product of Qidian Orphanage. His parents are still living and healthy in their hometown.
In his early years, his father founded a company in partnership with his friends. Due to an unlucky opportunity, he quit early, so the impact of the company's collapse did not affect Lu Xiao's family.
Since then, Lu Xiao's father, Lu Yi, has been running a hot pot restaurant in his hometown, and the business is pretty good.
My father was too busy alone, so my mother, Liu Ling, applied for internal retirement from a state-owned enterprise and retired early to help her father run the store together. Over the past few years, the business has been quite prosperous.
Due to his father's traveling experience in business in his early years, Lu Xiao's parents were relatively open-minded in raising their children and allowed him to develop the habit of independence from an early age.
The immortality effect brought by the Staff of Hermes will inevitably have a great impact on his life in the foreseeable future.
There may not be any clues in a few years, but in more than ten years or decades, if Lu Xiao still maintains his youthful appearance, let alone his parents, I am afraid some research institutes will send someone to invite him.
Go back to "assist" research.
Fortunately, Lu Xiao won't have to worry about this problem for at least a few years. Considering the time and gains that may be lost in each world, perhaps a relatively appropriate solution can be found in the next few mission worlds.
After graduating from the prestigious Jiangzhe University, Lu Xiao chose to stay in this city and live independently. Not long after graduation, she was introduced to a mobile app development company by a familiar senior.
Although Lu Xiao could only be regarded as a cheap labor force at the beginning, after three years of hard work, her current salary is considered decent.
Unlike her colleagues who often complained about her rapidly receding hairline, Lu Xiao, who insisted on exercising, had very thick hair until she crossed over. Therefore, she attracted the envy and jealousy of her colleagues, including her immediate boss.
Lu Xiao doesn't like to spend money lavishly in daily life. In addition to investing some money in three WeKr mobile games every month, she has a lot of savings from three years of hard work. She is often laughed at by colleagues who are used to moonlighting.
Old-fashioned thinking.
Having just returned from the mission world, Lu Xiao felt a strong sense of separation from modern society. Now it is almost impossible for him to work from 9 to 6 every day.
"At least I have some savings, quit my job, and adjust myself before entering the next world."
…
Today's society is not very friendly to fresh graduates who have just left school. Many companies require at least one year of work experience when recruiting.
But for a seasoned veteran like Lu Xiao who is capable and has work experience, the job options are relatively wide.
Internet companies have relatively frequent personnel turnover, and Lu Xiao's sudden resignation did not cause much ripples.
On the premise that he voluntarily gave up the remaining half month's salary, the boss did not force him to keep him until the new recruit arrived, and readily approved Lu Xiao's resignation letter.
With nothing to worry about and nothing to worry about, Lu Xiao decided to fulfill her wish that was almost unattainable when she worked hard every day and take a quick trip.
After taking a flight back to her hometown in Chengdu, Lu Xiao first went to a hotpot restaurant to visit her parents, who were still full of energy.
Compared with before graduation, his father Lu Yi has some more gray hair on his temples, while his mother Liu Ling relies on hair dye to try to cover up her age, but the wrinkles on her face cannot be covered up.
Lu Xiao repeatedly tried to convince her that hair dye was harmful to the body, but to no avail, so she had no choice but to leave it to her arrogant mother.
Lu Xiao stayed at home for five days on the pretext of taking annual leave while waiting for the Italian visa application. Lu Xiao felt the long-lost and unchanging family care from his parents, and his sense of separation from the real world eased a lot.
After getting the visa, Lu Xiao immediately booked a flight to Florence.
Chengdu Shuangliu Airport has direct flights to Italy, but if you want to reach Florence, you can only transfer from the capital Rome.
When Lu Xiao drove into the main city from the airport in the northwest of Florence, this ancient city that still maintained its Renaissance style to a large extent made Lu Xiao unconsciously express his emotions.
Since Lu Xiao already knew Italian, she applied to the travel agency for an independent trip.
There is not much difference between modern Italian and Renaissance Tuscan. Only some newly coined words that appeared later are more challenging. Lu Xiao can easily understand the meaning of the locals based on the order of context.
The original Palazzo della Signoria is still preserved in the city of Florence, and it is still the location of Florence's city hall.
Outside the Palazzo della Signoria stands a replica of Michelangelo's David, a statue of Poseidon, and many other outstanding sculptures.
It is a pity that when Lu Xiao lived in the world of Assassin's Creed, he was not able to meet Michelangelo, who was regarded as one of the three masters of the Renaissance. Michelangelo, who was born in 1475, was still a man wearing crotchless pants when Lu Xiao was active.
little brat.
Lu Xiao was deeply moved by revisiting his old place, and the difference between the two worlds also made him feel a little melancholy and lost.
This state of melancholy lasted only a short time before being replaced by horror.
After leaving the Palazzo della Signoria, Lu Xiao took a car to Palazzo Pitti, the former residence of the Medici family.
Over the years, the old house of the Medici family has become a landmark building in Florence and one of the most important tourist destinations. It is also the art exhibition hall of Florence.
In the special exhibition of Leonardo da Vinci's paintings on the third floor, a familiar painting made Lu Xiao's breath stop.
It was a portrait with distinctive Leonardo da Vinci's personal style. It depicted an Oriental in black clothes who was very rare in Europe during the Renaissance.
Thanks to Da Vinci's superb realistic painting skills, the appearance of this oriental man with a slightly helpless expression is vividly depicted, and he is at least 8 points similar to Lu Xiao.
The name of the painting is, "Farewell to a Best Friend".
"this……"
A chill ran down Lu Xiao's back, and the hairs all over his body suddenly stood up.
"Wtf?! How is that possible! Why do the paintings left behind in the Assassin's Creed world appear in the main world?"
