Chapter 1: The Day of Rebirth

Next Chapter

Inside a rental house on the outskirts of Shanghai. A young man in his twenties, taking advantage of the fact that there was no one at night, hurried into the house, immediately locked all the doors and windows, and entered the bathroom. If you look closely, you will see that his steps are a little scattered, and he is obviously very tired, even painful.

The man is about 1.7 meters tall and has a pale face, but he can still see that the lines are clear. This makes his facial features appear a little tough, and his figure is slightly thin. The white shirt on his back was stained with blood. Hair is unusually unkempt. If it wasn't late at night, the average person might have called the police when they saw it. On the lower part of his left shoulder, there are faint traces of some temporary bandaging. Apparently there was a rather severe trauma to the site, and now the wound had apparently cracked open and a large area of blood had oozed out. This is also the source of blood stains on the back. The thin white shirt reflected a shocking splash of blood.

With his right hand, which could still move, he unbuttoned his shirt with difficulty. The temporary bandage on his back fell off, revealing the wound on his back. I believe that after the baptism of various modern film and television dramas, according to the vast majority of people, they can recognize it at a glance, it is a gunshot wound. This explains why he didn't go to the hospital.

In Huaxia, a city with extremely strict firearms management, I am afraid that the first time the doctor sees his wound, he does not want to save him, but directly calls the police.

The wound did not penetrate, which may have been due to the fact that the bullet had received some kind of resistance before that, or it was a problem with the range. But then a rather tricky problem arises, the bullet remains in the body. The metal warhead compresses the surrounding blood vessels, and the bullet itself also carries a certain amount of heavy metal toxins. It can cause inflammation and even ulceration of the surrounding muscle tissue. Therefore, in this case, the bullet must be removed as soon as possible.

It's just a very ordinary rental house, and obviously it won't be stocked with items like first aid kits. It's just that the young man doesn't seem to be planning to prepare that. He just found a bottle of high liquor, as well as some needlework, and planned to start his surgery on his own.

How can a person remove the bullet from his back by himself? This is almost impossible unless specifically trained. And the position of the bullet should be within one's reach. The youth don't look like those trained special forces or anything like that. But he had other means.

I saw him take a deep breath and then enter a certain meditative state. It's just the constant twitching of his face that proves that he is enduring great pain. At this time, if you look closely at his wound, you will find that the muscles of the wound are obviously turned outward. And the warhead in the deepest part is actually slowly 'walking' outward.

With a suppressed roar of pain from the youth. There was a snap, and an orange-yellow warhead fell to the ground. Losing the pressure of the warhead, a large stream of blood spurted out directly. But in the next second, the blood stopped strangely automatically. And the next scene is even more jaw-dropping. I saw that the needle and thread on the edge of the sink slowly floated up by itself.

The cotton thread, soaked in spirits, slowly finished docking with the ordinary sewing needle in the air. Like some third-rate magic trick on the street, the sewing needle slowly bent out of an arc, and then flew directly to the wound on the back.

The young man constantly adjusted the position of the needle and thread through the mirror. Then he pricked it with a needle without hesitation. Maybe it's because the pain is numb, or maybe his willpower is far beyond ordinary people. The pain of being pricked by the pins and needles only made him frown. The wound was gradually sutured up with invisible force. The young man's face began to relax.

The young man's name is Lin Xuan, and he is an ordinary worker. The difference is that three days ago, he got his own golden finger. Some kind of ability to traverse. He is free to travel through the world of cinema and bring back to reality the power or objects he will receive.

Unlike the protagonists in other novels, Lin Xuan didn't have any special experiences. He wasn't electrocuted, he wasn't in a car accident, and he wasn't hit by a meteorite in the sky. It was only one day that he suddenly discovered this ability of his own. He didn't know exactly where this ability resided in his body, but it certainly touched some hidden sense in his body. Because he had an ability that other humans didn't have, but he didn't feel any discomfort himself.

Since he got the ability, it took him a day to understand the matter and make some preparations. Then I couldn't wait for the first crossing. Thanks to the enlightenment of countless time-traveling novels, Lin Xuan undoubtedly chose "Super Runaway" in the first world. In his opinion, this is a low-intensity science fiction film. And the superpowers inside get relatively safe. And it's a jack-of-all-trades. It is definitely a great choice for a novice traveler.

The first half of the operation was pretty much what he had imagined. He didn't intervene in the plot, but just kept an eye on Andrew and the others in secret. Following them succeeded, gaining telekinetic power. He hid in the plot world and practiced secretly for a few weeks. Until the telekinesis is developed to the extent that Andrew, the protagonist of the original book. Unfortunately, at this time, he began to swell a little.

There is an old Chinese saying that with a sharp weapon, the murderous intent arises. For Lin Xuan, it was a similar mentality. Lin Xuan, who had gained superpowers, became greedy. He had his eye on the strange crystal that gave people telekinesis. In his opinion, getting the crystal in his hands is a perfect crossing action. The day after they gained their abilities, the crystal was taken away by the military. But Shen Yi used his powers to threaten a senior member of the Public Transport Authority, and recovered video footage of the highway cameras of the military convoy that had been deleted, and obtained an approximate escort route.

He followed the trail and felt the presence of crystals in the mountains somewhere. Perhaps his ability stems from the development of crystals. When he flew over a certain mountain forest, he actually felt the presence of crystals. It was a spiritual connection that is hard to describe, indescribable, but it is there. Shen Yi stopped and did a survey of the mountains and forests around him. It was finally discovered that in the interior of this mountainous area, there was a hidden military base.

Before Shen Yi crossed over, he was just an ordinary grassroots class. Maybe there's something different about him. But there is no doubt that he had never tracked down a secret military base before that. He also didn't know what military-grade security meant.

Just as he identified the base, he was also spotted by a monitoring satellite over the base. He thought he was hiding high enough, but apparently not as high as the satellite. The base's higher-ups quickly determined that he was here for the crystal and set a trap specifically for it.

The next plot can be imagined. If it weren't for the opponent's first target, he would have been torn to shreds by the automatic weapon. Even so, after he broke free from various traps in a row, the top management of the base still gave the order to kill. If he hadn't used his return ability in the first place, I'm afraid he would have become a traverser who hung up in the first world. But even though he reacted fast enough, he was shot in the back. Thanks to the blocking of his telekinesis, he was not shot on the spot. He hurried back to his rental house, and then the above scene happened.

Lin Xuan, who had finished stitching up the wound, looked at the calendar. The time shows that a week has passed, but he has been in the movie world for about three weeks. In other words, the ratio of time flow between reality and the world of "Super Runaway" is one to three. It's just not certain whether this is true for all worlds, or if every world is different.

This question will not be figured out until the next crossing. Lin Xuan had no intention of continuing to waste his brain cells. He stood up against the wall. Looking through the window at the lights in the distance. It used to be the world he longed for infinitely. Eager to have their own place under that bustling light. But now, everything is different. He is a time-traveler, albeit with a serious injury. But he survived, and he was transcendent. From this moment on, the light could no longer have any attraction to him. There was a bigger world in front of him to explore.

His name is Lin Xuan. Tonight is the day of his rebirth.
