Chapter 1 CodyChapter 1 Cody
”Ahhh... damn the Zerg!”

”Huh? Zerg... what Zerg? The Zerg in the game or the Zerg in the novel? And... shouldn’t I be dead?”

”I...I can’t die, I haven’t...”

”Hmm... it feels so strange, as if... it seems like three consciousnesses suddenly appeared in the same soul?”

”Is this...the memories of three consciousnesses merging?”

”Who am I? Cody? Cody? Or Cody?”

******
Jiangnan Base City, Yi’an District, Yangzhou City, Nan’an Community, in a simple Tongzilou room.

”Huh... come alive!”

An ordinary-looking young man in his early 20s seemed to have just woken up from a nightmare. He was sweating profusely, and the look in his eyes was more of an unspeakable complexity than fear.

”The RR virus, monsters, Hong and Lei Shen, Luo Feng, Coty... are worlds that swallow the stars, but... am I traveling through time, seizing a body, or something else? Who am I now...?”

The scenes that happened before flowed through his mind again.

An indigenous young man whose spiritual power was too strong and failed to awaken and was about to collapse his consciousness; a peerless human genius who was assassinated and wandered in the long river of time for countless years and was about to completely disappear; a mutilated soul that traveled from parallel time and space.

The three are incomplete, but coincidentally very complementary and consistent. Therefore, under the influence of some unknown power, the three finally magically merge into one.

”From today on, my name is Cody.” The young man said to himself, looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar face in the mirror.

Strictly speaking, he is now Cody, Cody, and Cody at the same time.

But after merging the incomplete memories of the three people, he first excluded the name Cody. Translating these two words into the universal language, it was too unpopular. If he changed the word to Cody, it would be completely different after translation. .

”A spiritual master? Well, it would be good to try this different route this time, and you can hide yourself better.” Cody felt the abundant spiritual power in his consciousness, and the corners of his mouth slightly twitched. rising.

”Well... the mental power is about the fourth level of the apprentice level, or according to people here, the elementary warrior level. This level of strength... is far from enough to protect yourself. You have to seize the time to become stronger.” Rough estimate After checking his current strength, Cody murmured to himself.

According to that part of the memory from the local soul, it is now May 2056, 5. Although the era of Nirvana has ended, the crisis has never left. Most areas of the world are still under the ravages of monsters.

According to another part of the soul memory that traveled through parallel time and space, this time point means that the plot line of this world has begun. The protagonist of this world seems to be named Luo Feng?

”Luo Feng? This name seems very familiar.” Cody, who had just successfully fused the three incomplete souls and had not yet completely sorted out the three memories, began to search hard in his mind.

Suddenly, a picture emerged from his memory.

In the hospital ward, more than a dozen beds are densely packed. ”Brother Ke, I heard from the doctor that your symptoms are almost exactly the same as mine. Can I ask, is this the first time you have had this symptom?” A thin-looking young man curiously asked Cody on the bed next door.

”The first time.” Cody replied coldly. He was still worried about his medical expenses.

As an orphan, he had to enter society and work hard after compulsory education. He originally planned to work hard while he was young to see if he could have the opportunity to embark on the path of a warrior.

Who would have thought that this afternoon, when he was carrying heavy objects with his colleagues, his heart suddenly seemed to have been hit hard, and his vision became blurry. Then a sharp pain came from his mind, and he passed out instantly.

When he woke up again, he was already in the hospital. Thinking of the medical expenses of this treatment and the compensation for the loss of his employer’s belongings due to his mistakes, Cody’s head began to hurt again.

At this moment, an uncle in work clothes walked in at the door of the ward.

”Xiao Ke, you have to thank Boss Li this time. After we told him what happened, he checked the surveillance and believed that the loss was not caused intentionally by us, so he has canceled the request. Our claim.” As soon as the man in work clothes walked in, he excitedly said to Cody.

”Dad, do you know Brother Ke?” The thin young man in the hospital bed next door asked curiously.

”Xiao Ke is a coworker who works with me. I didn’t expect that he would have the same headache as you.” The uncle in work clothes sighed and said.

Then he turned his head again and smiled at Cody: ”This kid is the one I told you. My eldest son is called Luo Feng. He is 12 years old this year and his academic performance is not bad.”

Cody glanced at Luo Feng, nodded and smiled, and then said to Luo Hongguo: ”Uncle Luo, thank you very much this time, but I want to be discharged from the hospital now. Can you help me run a little bit more?” , go through the discharge procedures.”

When he said this, Luo Hongguo’s expression became serious. He looked at Cody seriously and said: ”Xiao Ke, you and my Xiaofeng have this headache. Although there is no good treatment method in the hospital, we just recovered from the coma. When you wake up, it is best to stay in the hospital for a few days of observation. As for the cost of hospitalization, you don’t have to worry too much. I discussed it with several other workers and each of them collected a little for you. When you make money in the future Just pay it back.”

”You really don’t need it, Uncle Luo. I think I’m in extremely good health now, even better than before I was in coma.” Cody insisted.

Of course he knew the situation in the families of his co-workers. No one could be considered well-off. Let’s take Uncle Luo for example. He heard a few days ago that his wife was seriously ill and was admitted to the hospital. Now his eldest son was hospitalized again. Where could he come from? Lend him the money.

Besides, it’s true that he doesn’t think there’s anything wrong with his body. He thinks he’s now so strong that he can kill a cow with one punch.

”Oh, you... okay, then I will help you go through the discharge procedures.” Luo Hongguo sighed and said.

The reason why he agreed to Cody’s request so easily was because when his son Luo Feng was admitted to the hospital with a headache and coma, nothing was found. Otherwise, even if he was kidnapped, he would have to tie the boy up and stay in the hospital for a few days before proceeding.

”Thank you, Uncle Luo.” Cody thanked him with a smile.

”Xiao Feng, right? I heard Uncle Luo say...”

After Luo Hongguo left, Cody took the initiative to strike up a conversation with Luo Feng. Although his personality was somewhat withdrawn, it was mainly for outsiders, and now Luo Feng was considered the son of his benefactor, so of course he could not be considered an outsider.
