Chapter 1-1
Zheng closed his eyes and recalled everything that happened in The Mummy. For a while, his mind could not calm down.
Qi Tengyi, who was a normal guy, only liked ancient writings and cultures, yet scolded him like a man before his death, and those final words of his.
Zero, who was calm and cool, an assassin with a tender heart, that little girl with a boy's appearance he wouldn't let go of, and the words until death.
Many more things. The movie characters, the powerful team India, the tragic Imhotep, it felt like years had gone by in just ten days.
When he finally opened his eyes, it was the same platform without an edge, the same sphere in the center, and five people standing around him. Honglu and Heng looked around with surprise.
"God! Heal everyone! Deduct the points from me!" Zheng yelled. Several beams shone from the sphere and covered the six of them. The beam on Honglu was the faintest. It disappeared in just a moment. Then the boy looked at his hand in surprise. A cut on his hand had completely healed.
Zheng and Yinkong stayed inside the beam the longest. Yinkong took even more time than Zheng. When he finished, Yinkong's shoulder had healed but she was still inside the beam.
Zheng closed his eyes to feel his body. For some reason, he had a feeling that he could control his body. Not just moving his arms and legs but control over his cells. Of course, he was aware that was only a delusion, but this delusion felt so real to him.
When he opened his eyes again, a girl was standing in front of him with tears flowing down her cheeks. Lori didn't run into his arms. She stood a few meters away, smiling with tears.
Zheng then quickly turned to Jie. Jie had woke up, the beam on him wasn't intense. It seemed like his lost of consciousness was just normal condition but those black circles around his eyes indicated the state of his mental health. He was no longer laughing. He walked up to her woman quietly, embraced her and put his head on her shoulder. After some time, he walked to his room without a word.
"Jie." Zheng shouted. Jie stopped his steps but he didn't turn around. Zheng hesitated and said. "We will talk tomorrow. Take a good rest today. I thank you on behalf of everyone."
Jie waved his hand and walked away with Nana. The back of his body gave off a sense of loneliness. The other five people could only watch in silence as he walked further away.
Zheng sighed then turned to the others. Yinkong had came out of the beam by now. Everyone had healed to their perfect condition. Zheng gave a laughed and said. "Go take a rest. Honglu, Heng, go get a room. You just have to hold onto the door handle and imagine the environment you want. The room will then change. Also, God gives everyone a chance to create a free living being. It can be man or woman, any age, size, face, but keep in mind that this being can be created with two times a normal person's stats, I am referring to muscle density and reaction speed. So you can create a bodyguard for yourselves. That's basically it. Don't use the points yet. We will discuss what everyone should enhance tomorrow. Now everyone go to their room."
Honglu asked. "It was probably someone that told you about bodyguards right? Can you tell me who was it? Is he still alive?"
Zheng was about to take Lori's hands when he suddenly heard it and asked curiously. "Why do you think so? Don't I look like someone that can come up with it?"
Honglu laughed. "The deduction is simple, I won't go into details. Judging from the fact that you created a woman and how you are as a person, you definitely won't be one to think about creating a bodyguard. I am curious, who is this person? Did he die in a previous movie?"
