Chapter 79: Chapter 79: Registration
Half an hour later, Chen Shouyi finished the check-in procedures at the hotel and entered his room.
He lay back on the bed, unwilling to move for a long ti.
After a long while, he got up, opened his briefcase, and released the Shell Lady.
"Giant, you’ve changed your sleeping place again?" The Shell Lady imdiately surveyed the room’s environnt and then asked the question she was most curious about, "Is everything prepared here?"
"No!"
"There must be, you’re lying." The Shell Lady looked at the room’s computer and gestured, "Giant, you need to press here, and everything will co back."
Learning quite fast.
Well, whatever, life is short. Let her watch if she wants. Even if her eyesight worsens, he doesn’t care anymore.
He opened the computer and found her favorite cartoon.
Suddenly, the world fell silent.
He lay back on the bed, closed his eyes, and in the next mont, his consciousness was already in the mory Space.
He returned to the scene on the train.
...
"This world is changing, war is coming. Fools will fall into Hell, wise ones will achieve glory."
The young man had a mysterious smile, as if he was uttering so kind of aphorism.
Not long ago, in this scene, Chen Shouyi was sitting on pins and needles, hairs standing on end, drenched in cold sweat.
But at this mont, in this mory Space, watching from another perspective, he felt an unusual calm.
No matter how real this world seems, it’s still false, just his mory.
His consciousness wandered like a ghost through the mory Space for a long ti, finally making a determined decision, plunging into it suddenly.
Without much surprise, the mont he made contact, there was a "boom" in his mind, and his consciousness was flung out. When he regained clarity, he felt dizzy, ntally drained, almost unable to think.
Knew it would be like this!
Chen Shouyi felt a bit disheartened.
Last ti, when it was the big tree, this situation occurred. This ti, it was even more straightforward.
His consciousness floated dizzily above. Gradually, he suddenly felt a slight tremor in the mory Space.
At first, he thought it was an illusion in his dazed state, but soon he realized sothing was wrong.
This world indeed trembled, everything within sight in the train carriage seed unnaturally distorted and deford.
It felt as though this space was on the verge of collapse.
No way!
Chen Shouyi’s mind, dulled by the previous shock, finally started to react.
Before he could respond, a sudden sense of panic arose in his heart.
Unease, anxiety, palpitations, oppression.
All these oddities seed to warn him.
Danger! Danger! Danger!
In a vague sense, he seed to perceive a majestic gaze, projecting through endless space.
Not good!
He was scared, his consciousness trembled, finally fully awake. Resolutely, he imdiately exited this space.
Before leaving, he glanced instinctively at the mysterious young man, only to be shocked to find his figure had beco blurred and dim, his face no longer visible, as if gradually disappearing from this space.
Chen Shouyi suddenly opened his eyes, filled with lingering fear.
He lay on the bed, breathing rapidly, heart pounding, hands and feet feeling icy.
Listening to the nonsensical dialogue of the cartoon, and looking at the focused Shell Lady beside him, only after a long while did his heart gradually calm.
"Thankfully, everything is fine, this is still Earth."
"The deities of the other world aren’t strong enough to project power across space to kill him. If they were truly that strong, humanity would have long faced its end."
"After all, wasn’t it just the consciousness entering his body?"
"Was it really necessary to be so sensitive?"
"Was it necessary?"
However, this unexpected incident completely woke him up.
He must never casually let his consciousness enter the bodies of those terrifying beings again.
No, he must never be unlucky enough to encounter those beings again.
Too dangerous.
Fortunately, this is Earth. If it were in another world, such behavior could have left him obliterated.
It’s said that so true deities possess mysterious abilities, sensing when soone ntions their true na, depending on their power, hearing a few syllables or even an entire conversation.
Clearly, mory might also carry so power unknown to him, as entering the bodies of these beings allows them to sense.
Moreover, the mories in this mory Space are far from just simple recollections.
The Book of Knowledge seems to have a powerful analytical and complentation ability, even a taste of omniscience, making fleeting mories beco vivid and full.
This is more like a projection sealed within mory than re recollection.
"Huh!"
He suddenly realized he couldn’t rember the appearance of that mysterious person, unsure if the person even existed.
"Should I revisit the mory Space!" He felt a surge within.
Chen Shouyi hesitated for a mont, finally gritted his teeth,
This is Earth, there’s nothing to fear, worst case, he’d escape back.
Then he returned to the mory Space, back to the original scene.
He was shocked to find the mysterious person had disappeared, replaced by a blurred, dim shadow, and his forr self was talking to this indeterminate shadow.
This scene was as strange as it could be.
As for what the shadow looked like, whether it was human or beast, the expression, what was said, Chen Shouyi couldn’t rember a thing.
Thinking back over ti, unless faced with a logical contradiction, he felt he had indeed only seen a shadow, and the other party had never spoken.
...
Early the next morning, Chen Shouyi arrived at Hedong City’s Martial Arts Assessnt Center.
Entering the building, he took the elevator to the top-floor Martial Arts assessnt registration office, which was more humane compared to the cold and rigid registration for the Martial Artist Apprentice assessnt.
Inside it was like a club, elegantly and brightly decorated, with a row of leather sofas against the wall, a table with assorted fruits and pastries, and even a small bar.
Entering the hall, Chen Shouyi montarily doubted he’d co to the wrong place.
Fortunately, a young, beautiful staff mber with a swinging slender waist, walked over shortly.
"This is the Martial Arts assessnt registration office, is there anything I can assist you with?"
She particularly reminded him.
Mainly because he looked too young, dressed casually, like a high school student.
"It’s good to be here, I’m here to register!" Chen Shouyi said.
She paused for a mont, but her trained professional deanor quickly masked her surprise, smiling:
"Alright, please hand
your ID and Martial Artist Apprentice certificate; we’ll help you with registration procedures, and you can rest here a bit."
Having co to register, Chen Shouyi was naturally prepared. He handed over his credentials and ID, saying, "Thank you."
"It’s no trouble!" The staff received it with both hands, turned around, took a few steps, then suddenly ca back: "Excuse , I want to confirm, it seems your apprentice certificate’s issue date was yesterday?"
"Yes, I passed it yesterday, is there a ti interval requirent for taking the Martial Artist assessnt?" Chen Shouyi asked in confusion.
"No, there’s no requirent... It’s just..." The staff wasn’t sure how to gently explain to this sowhat recklessly daring young man.
"Oh, I understand!" Chen Shouyi nodded knowingly.
Sigh, youth’s folly, always suffering in this regard, and since being altered by the Book of Knowledge, he looked even younger.
"You think I’m overestimating myself! Please help
with my briefcase."
She instinctively took the briefcase handed by Chen Shouyi, wanting to say sothing.
Then she saw the boy’s figure suddenly blur, using a lunge strike technique, he threw a fierce punch.
The next mont the air resounded with a booming crash, and wind howled.
She quickly closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, three to four ters away, the table was in disarray, with fruits and pastries scattered everywhere.
"Uh, do I need to compensate for this?" The boy said with so embarrassnt.
That damned innate destructive urge, always unable to resist the desire to break sothing.
"Compensate... no, no need!"
"Good, then return my briefcase, by the way, no issues with registration, right?"
The beauty, puzzled, handed back the briefcase and then hastily replied, "No... no issues."
