Chapter 2 The person who refuses
After saying this, Kino closed his eyes and prepared to continue his eternal sleep.
However, as mentioned before, those words are not entities floating in the air, but can be seen directly through visual nerve imaging. It makes no difference whether you close your eyes or not.
After Kino refused to sign the contract, the text in front of him distorted and changed, and appeared line by line like a torrent:
[Contract signing failed]
[Scanning for abnormal creatures...]
[Trait: Arrogance]
[The triple shackles are opened]
[Effective: Brand of the Rejector]
The words in front of him shattered in an instant, and Kino was dazzled by the intense scorching light. He subconsciously opened his eyes and found that an indescribable fluid substance appeared in this strange darkness, and began to gather into a singularity.
When it exploded like brilliant fireworks, he realized that this was the Big Bang at the beginning of all things.
Elementary particles, chemical elements, light, electromagnetic fields...matter began to appear in the silent darkness, and the stars moved around. Time was distorted into observable vectors, just like the length, width and height that the human eye can see.
One minute is 60 seconds, and one second is 1000 milliseconds, microseconds, nanoseconds, picoseconds...a blink of an eye is endless. The truly infinite time gap spreads endlessly, turning into invisible waves roaring towards us.
When the torrent of time enveloped his body, Kino felt like the world was spinning, as if his body was sinking and floating on the sea. The sea water poured into his mouth and nose without realizing it. His senses gradually became numb. Only the heartbeat reverberating in his body filled his hearing. A black ocean filled his field of vision, and the waves
One layer higher than the other, eventually drowning him completely.
...
dark...
chaos...
There is no temperature.
There is no sound.
All that remains is the fading consciousness.
When the darkness spreads to the end, the vision becomes mottled, and countless noises sway in front of the eyes like overwhelming snowflakes. A vague and gentle song seems to be heard in the ears, waking Kino from his deep sleep.
When Kino opened his eyes again, he found himself in a dark room. The dirty kerosene lamp on the table was shining with a faint light. The walls were yellowed due to age. The tables and chairs were very old and covered with age-deep stains.
There were cracks, pieces of the table were missing, and there were traces of moth gnaws on it.
It's night now. Looking out the window, you can see the endless darkness and the rows of ancient buildings under the torches on the street that are obviously not modern in style.
He touched his eyebrows with his hand, and found no blood or bullet holes, nor any discomfort on his body, as if everything just now was a dream.
"Can't you understand people?" He felt like he was being tricked.
You can be reborn and travel even if you sign a contract, and you can be reborn and travel without signing a contract. So why do you ask?
There was no "memory flashback" in Kino's time travel. He only carried the real memory of his previous life. Without the memory of this new body, he knew nothing about the world he was currently in.
He picked up the kerosene lamp and looked around, and found a full-length mirror in the corner, so he walked over and looked at his new self in the mirror.
The kerosene lamp illuminated those dreamy amber eyes, and the orange-red light fell on the delicate body, reflecting a classical military-style uniform. The collar of the unbuttoned collar was lazily spread out, vaguely visible.
Seeing the pleasantly curved collarbone, the skin seemed to be rippled in the firelight.
The appearance has not changed.
It's exactly the same as in the previous life, with no difference at all.
He checked his uniform and soon found a metal nameplate hanging on his chest, with the words Chino Civil Affairs Officer (Schilling Town) engraved on it.
This kind of writing does not belong to any language in the previous life, but it can be recognized without any obstacles. It must be that the reading area of the brain has been passively manipulated.
He couldn't help but have a question: How to solve the problem of identity in this way of time travel?
There was originally a person named Kino who looked exactly like him in this world, but was he replaced by him after traveling through time?
Or rather, there was no such thing as him in this world. The supreme being allowed his body and soul to travel together, inserted himself into this world out of thin air, and used huge computing power to reconstruct the interpersonal relationships of everyone in this world, making him seamless.
blend into it?
No matter what it is, the abilities of the supreme being are beyond imagination.
As he continued to explore, when Kino's consciousness stirred, he suddenly found an interface appearing in front of him: reward points, evolution points, special reincarnation talents, redemption center, redemption records...
However, it's all gray and unresponsive to any interaction, just like a crashed computer.
A line of scarlet words appeared at the top of the interface: Brand of the Rejector.
Followed by a line of comments: Those who reject the contract will be unable to accept the mission, unable to complete the trial, unable to awaken the reincarnation talent, unable to use reward points to redeem items, unable to use evolution points to enhance genes, and will face the invasion of reincarnation and become the hunting target of the reincarnators.
.
Kino quickly understood that this "Rejector's Mark" was similar to the debuff or punishment in the game.
Just like, some players cheat in games and are punished.
He was punished for refusing to sign the contract.
"Isn't it true that I just rejected you once?" He couldn't help but smile.
In addition to all kinds of helplessness, he also noticed a key piece of information - facing the invasion of reincarnation and becoming the hunting target of reincarnation.
Below is a line of numbers that keeps passing by:
【335:56:01】
【335:56:00】
【335:55:59】
Every time 1 second passes, the end of the number will constantly decrease by 1, which is obviously some kind of countdown.
335 hours, 55 minutes and 59 seconds, 14 days left in the countdown - if a day in this world is also 24 hours.
What will happen when the countdown ends is not difficult to judge from the current information.
Yangchun Baixue, a native of Lower Liba, is not picky about reading books. He also reads world famous books and online literature. He is also familiar with the so-called time travel and infinite flow.
According to the normal routine of infinite flow novels, the protagonist will travel through various reincarnation planes, complete tasks to obtain rewards, break through the limits at the moment of life and death, and make himself stronger step by step.
However, because he refused to sign the contract and was branded as a rejecter, he could not enjoy this kind of protagonist treatment.
Moreover, he went from being a reincarnation who completed the mission to becoming a mission target.
When the countdown ends, it is not difficult to guess that a reincarnation team will invade this world and hunt him.
From a hunter to a prey, this is a devastating thing. If you regret it, you should have signed the contract honestly - but this is not Kino's idea.
He found that his current situation was very interesting, and that the "Mark of the Rejector" was not a malicious revenge, but had a deeper meaning.
because...
The amber pupils moved slightly to the side, and the imaging interface also switched accordingly, and finally glimpsed a new realm. The nodes as vast as a sea of stars were divided into three rows, like three giant pillars standing in the dense universe. The fluorescent roars gathered together and appeared in front of them.
Brilliant:
