When faced with perplexing situations, Reyno always liked to go outside and breathe some fresh air. It felt great.
Lying on the artificial grass, inhaling the scent of earth mixed with grass, Reyno couldn't calm down today. A soldier who doesn't aspire to be a general isn't a good soldier, and similarly, Reyno had his dreams. In the short term, getting into a military academy was his biggest dream. Moreover, he had other reasons that made it necessary to get in... But why did it have to be exams? Even if there were exams, they should be more diverse, giving people who aren't good at theoretical tests a chance.
No, he had to try his best. Without trying, there was no chance at all. Trying at least gave him a one percent possibility. Life rarely offers chances for such passion, so he'd go for it!
Thinking about the exciting moments, Reyno seemed to envision himself in the glorious moment of becoming an armored warrior. He suddenly stood up, struck a cool pose with one hand pointing to the sky, and shouted, "I'm the best!"
Shouting as a way to vent was indeed great... Wait, what was that?Just as he finished shouting, Reyno noticed a strange ripple suddenly appear in the sky, followed by a shooting star.
Could it be that the heavens hadn't gone to sleep? He chuckled silently, made a rather crude gesture, and continued to shout: "Man conquers nature!"
He even made a beckoning motion with his hand. After all, shooting stars looked close but were actually very far away. But just as he finished the gesture, a bizarre scene unfolded. The shooting star really did come hurtling towards him, getting closer and closer.
Reyno froze for a moment, then took off running. Was this for real? It was too strange!But after just a few steps, he felt an enormous pressure descend upon him. Amidst the thunderous noise, he lost consciousness. In his hazy state, he grumbled indignantly, "I hate flying rocks!"
Evening news: A student from Greenwich High School was struck by a meteorite in the suburbs after school. He has been sent to the hospital. According to preliminary examinations, the student is not seriously injured. This should be considered a rare astronomical phenomenon, with odds of one in a hundred billion. Please feel free to continue your suburban outings.
Charles, who was eating dinner, couldn't help but spit out his food. It was actually someone from his school! This guy had such good luck to encounter something with hundred-billion-to-one odds. He should go buy a lottery ticket immediately.
Just then, his wrist communicator beeped. A small virtual video window popped up, and a beautiful female voice announced: "Incoming call, incoming call."
"Hey, Reyno! Haha, did you hear? Some unlucky guy from our school got hit by a meteor. I'd really like to meet this brother and send him a wreath."
There was silence on the other end of the line.
"Hello? Say something, I'm eating here!"
A hoarse voice came from the other end of the communicator, "Charles, my friend, that unlucky guy is me!"
Pffft...
Charles quickly looked up and realized that Reyno was lying in a pristine hospital bed in the communicator screen. He was at a loss for words.
"Alright, Mr. Reyno, you need to rest now," a stern-faced nurse said from the side. Reyno could only helplessly turn off the communicator. Oh well, he might as well rest his eyes. He could hear two nurses laughing nearby.
"This guy is quite interesting, actually getting hit by a meteor.""Yeah, apart from some body shock, he doesn't have any injuries at all. What incredible luck, hehe."Reyno covered his head with a pillow. He'd been embarrassed to the moon and back. To encounter such an outrageous event, his luck was truly "amazing"!
Feeling drowsy and fatigued, he quickly drifted off to sleep. After all, even a normal person wouldn't be completely unaffected after being hit by a meteor.
Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle...A golden light, almost imperceptible to the naked eye, flickered over Reyno's body. The surrounding equipment suddenly dimmed.
"Self-check, three, two, one."Beep, beep, beep, beep...Inspection report: Database damage 78%, recoverable 32%. Self-damage95%,recoverable.Information detection: Successfully traversed parallel universe. Coordinate position: non-returnable, unable to receive any information. Target location: Sufficient energy, utilization rate 15%, medium-level civilization.
Suddenly, the light flickered more urgently... Master's aura, Master, Master...Warning: Insufficient energy, insufficient energy. Entering self-repair sleep mode in three seconds. Three, two, one...
The golden light slowly retracted into Reyno's body, and the surrounding machines resumed normal operation. Reyno slept sweetly, dreaming that the principals of the three major Nordic military academies were kneeling before him in a row, begging him to attend their schools. Reyno couldn't help but smile silently in his sleep.Daydreaming can be a very happy thing.
Feeling refreshed all over, Reyno woke up. As he opened his eyes, he saw his best friend Charles. Seeing Reyno awake, Charles pounced on him."Damn, bro, you're finally awake! I thought you'd become a vegetable!""Nonsense, you jinx! I'm as healthy as a horse, just took a nap!""A nap? Do you know you've been sleeping for three days and nights? Did you think you were a bear hibernating?"Dazed, Reyno instinctively touched his face. It was just a nap, was it really that dramatic? Suddenly remembering a serious issue, he asked, "You didn't tell my parents, did you?""Of course not! I understood your meaning when you called. I wouldn't dare say anything. But if you hadn't woken up soon, I really would have. I told your mom you were doing special training at my place."
"Haha, you're a true friend!"This kind of thing happened often. Charles' family was quite wealthy, and importantly, they had a gravity manipulator at home. Reyno often stayed there to train his physical reflexes, and his family was used to it. Of course, Charles had no interest in physical training. At first, he found the anti-gravity weightlessness interesting, but after playing with it for a while, he lost interest. It became Reyno's exclusive training ground. Of course, Reyno wasn't practicing weightlessness, but super-gravity."Excuse me, please step aside. We need to examine the patient."Charles immediately moved to the side, throwing Reyno a glance. His eyes sparkled as he looked at the young nurse. How exquisite, not bad at all. "Nurse sister, my buddy here has a little problem. He loves getting injections. If you have the chance, don't be stingy, give him a good jab."
