In front of the computer, Lin Tongxi's heart suddenly stopped beating.
Everything happened suddenly, including the notice of preliminary layoffs, the unexpected death of my parents, and the worsening of my sister's illness.
Of course, it also includes his farewell to this world.
Countless memories flashed through my mind, and the picture finally froze on my sister's smile on the hospital bed.
He knew that this was the last time he would see her.
…
"During the last years of the Red Dynasty, China was in turmoil..."
"Warlords are fighting each other, and the country is in turmoil..."
"Are you willing to assist..."
The voice was intermittent, and Lin Tongxi didn't know what he was dreaming about.
Drops of raindrops fell on his face. When he opened his eyes, he found himself lying on the ground with a river beside him.
The weather was extremely gloomy and it was drizzling.
After waking up, he felt his trouser pocket.
The cell phone is missing, along with keys and other items.
The only thing he found was a jade pendant with ancient characters written on it, but he couldn't recognize the characters.
Just as he was wondering, a shadow suddenly appeared before his eyes, like a menu in a game. In the middle of the shadow were written a few large words: "Bind to host..."
Host? Could it be that I have traveled through time and space and become the protagonist of a novel?
"System Spirit No. *** has selected a host for you [Chen Yunxuan]. Please make good use of the power of the system and lead him to help the troubled times." A mechanical voice sounded in Lin Tongxi's mind.
The spirit of the system? The host? To help the troubled times?
Have you regenerated the system?
According to the previous settings, you should travel through time and space to become the protagonist, and then bind to the system!
But how did I become the system?
Before he could figure out the situation, he heard the sound of fighting not far away.
Lin Tongxi moved closer and hid behind a big tree to observe the situation.
"What a golden opportunity! Chen Yunxuan, you, a loser, have finally been expelled from the academy by the elders!" a shorter man shouted.
"Stop talking nonsense and get to work. Only the dead can keep secrets!" said another slightly taller man coldly.
Both of them were wearing blue-gray scholar's robes, surrounding a young man in a green shirt with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes.
The young man's cheeks were pale, his Taoist robe was torn, and his collar was stained with blood.
Chen Yunxuan said nothing, clenched the broken sword in his hand, and started fighting with the two men.
If it was a one-on-one fight, he would naturally have the confidence to win, but unfortunately it was a one-on-two fight.
What's worse, one of them didn't follow the rules of martial ethics and blinded his eyes with lime powder.
"As disciples of the academy, you are so despicable!" Chen Yunxuan's eyes were completely mesmerized. Facing the attacks of the two, he was completely unable to form any defense.
"You talk too much nonsense!" The tall and thin man stabbed Chen Yunxuan's body with a sword, and blood flowed from the sword.
At this moment, the shadow in front of Lin Tongxi's eyes also turned blood red! His heart felt the pain from before again. A pair of hands tightly grasped his heart, as if it would crush it at any time.
A pop-up window suddenly appeared on the phantom, with the blood-red message: "Host Chen Yunxuan is on the verge of death! Please ask System Spirit No. *** to help the host as soon as possible! If the host dies, the System Spirit will be instantly annihilated!"
Destroy! Destroy! Destroy!
These two words were engraved in his soul, making him feel fear, which was the instinctive fear of death of living things!
Obviously, Chen Yunxuan couldn't die! But he was unarmed and couldn't just go out and die!
By the way, didn’t we just talk about the power of the system... Let’s look for it!
There was an eight-diagram icon in the upper left corner of the phantom. Lin Tongxi looked at it, and the specific description of the system's power popped up:
[System Power] 2 (After the host completes the task, the System Spirit can gain System Power, and consume System Power to activate corresponding skills)
Current Skills
Out of nothing: Randomly generate items, which requires consuming system power*1, limited to once a day.
Live and die together: Select a soul and share half of the damage. The effect lasts for half a day and consumes 1 system power.
Lin Tongxi thought about it and felt that only [Out of Nothing] could reverse the situation, but how should he activate the skill?
I have absolutely no idea what to do. It's ok to suddenly become a system, but this crappy system doesn't even have a tutorial for new users?
Just when Lin Tongxi was having a headache, a rabbit suddenly jumped out and scared him.
"Who! Come out!" Hearing the noise, the man who stabbed Chen Yunxuan quickly drew out his sword, kicked Chen Yunxuan to another big tree, and then pointed his sword in the direction of the strange noise.
Chen Yunxuan, who was already weak, fainted after this blow.
"Brother, I'll go check out the situation." The shorter man took a defensive stance and walked towards Lin Tongxi.
The taller man attacked again, ready to take Chen Yunxuan's life!
Lin Tongxi had no choice. If he didn’t come out, the host would lose his life!
"Wait!" Lin Tongxi stepped out and hurriedly stopped the other party's behavior. "Brother, can you please show some mercy? This is my son. I will reward him handsomely later."
Originally, he wanted to pretend to be from a noble family to scare them.
But after traveling through time, he was still wearing a polo shirt. When the two saw this attire, they became puzzled. Which family would wear such strange clothes?
Furthermore, the two men noticed the delicate skin of the person before them. Even if they attacked, what would the other party do? Could a dead person summon help?
"Let's kill him together!" Seeing that Chen Yunxuan was lying on the ground and posed no threat, the tall man temporarily gave up on taking his life and instead rushed over with another man, trying to kill Lin Tongxi.
