Mist

Chapter 95: Overload

The cold rain left a slightly tingling sensation when it hit his face.
Ji Yushi coughed out some blood which flowed out his mouth and traced down his lips and neck. He knew that this must be a sign that his lungs had been shot. With every breath taken, more blood came out.

He wanted to speak, but he couldn’t say anything.

Someone was applying pressure to his chest. Seemingly realising that it was too late, that violently trembling hand then moved to his cheek and tried to wipe away the blood from his lips.
Faintly, he heard a man crying.

He wanted to say, Song Qinglan, I know now.
Those three little kittens who had accompanied me for eight years were something you gave my seventeen-year-old self who had just started living alone.
—-It was after I left this world.

But every time he tried to open his mouth; more blood poured out. He could clearly feel the pain, but he couldn’t control the blood flowing out.

This was his doomed ending.
His life ended here in 1439.
—–He had returned to the past and became a part of history. It could no longer be changed.

He breathed sharply. He wanted to look at that face again. He wanted to tell Song Qinglan, tell him that in this short, lonely and painful life of his, he was glad he had met him.

Before falling into eternal darkness, he had a strong thought.

He didn’t want to die.

【Warning! Warning! You have deviated from the destination coordinates! You have deviated from the destination coordinates!】

Ji Yushi suddenly opened his eyes.
The red light in front of him flashed and countless bizarre images flashed past his eyes. Amidst the violent shaking, familiar warnings could be heard: “Illegal transition detected! Illegal transition detected!”. He saw that he was in a confined space— It was his capsule!!

What was going on?
The capsule shook violently. Ji Yushi could only grip tightly onto the armrest. His mind had no time to think about his current situation. It only felt like it was about to explode with all the memories stuffed into it.

When everything finally calmed back down, the robotic arm delivered over some nutrient solution. He downed all of it in just a few mouthfuls. He didn’t know where he was.
The gunshot wound on his chest was gone. His rapid pulse and heart rate and the side effects from traversing all reminded him that he was still alive.

After taking a while to catch his breath, he raised his head and saw what was displayed on the transparent panel in front of him. In an instant, he felt a chill run through him.

These strings of garbled characters were something he had seen in the Ouroboros mission.
Perhaps others may not be certain whether these garbled characters were truly the same as the ones they saw before, but with Ji Yushi’s superhuman memories, he would be able to recognise it even if it was written backwards!

He opened the capsule and walked out.

The early morning sky was dark grey and there would occasionally be cold wind cutting through the forest. Faint light came from the several silver-white capsules near him.
Someone patted him, “Advisor Ji, how do you feel? Are you okay?”

He looked back. The one who spoke was Duan Wen. Like him, the other person had just left his capsule and looked very normal. He didn’t react differently to the current situation, as if they were supposed to be in this mission that should’ve already been completed a long time ago.
