Lin Mo was a recent graduate of an ordinary university in Hangzhou City. His parents were divorced and left him to live alone in a small house in Hangzhou City. He had been working part-time to earn living expenses and tuition fees. Lin Mo was also an avid cosplayer and had joined the cosplay God of War Group, and he had very good craftsmanship and could make his own props. He had participated in many cosplay activities to earn some money. He had fortunately passed the annual Air Force pilot recruitment assessment one week before graduating.

The Air Force recruitment for university students was far more demanding than for high school students. Lin Mo was just trying his luck and did not think he could actually pass the series of strict tests and medical examinations. A letter of admission was sent to him, and he would become an Air Force pilot in the near future.

The next day after the cosplay competition, which was tomorrow, Lin Mo would report to the Air Force Aviation University with his luggage.

However, no one thought that a car would run a red light at the crossroad a few days ago. A young girl was staring at her phone beside Lin Mo while they were crossing the road and did not notice the car. Lin Mo pushed the girl away, and she landed safely. But Lin Mo could not dodge and was sent flying a few meters away.

The driver that got into trouble was terrified. However, instead of getting out of the car, he turned the car around and floored the accelerator without any intention of stopping. He escaped so fast that no one had time to jot down the license plate.

Two passersby rushed to help Lin Mo, who had fallen on the ground. Besides some superficial wounds and a few tears in his shirt, he was still conscious. He rested for a while and was able to stand up again. He did not seem to have suffered many injuries and felt all right. He needed to work on the cosplay contest, so he did not have the time nor wanted to visit the hospital.

The girl who escaped death did not even utter a word of thanks before she disappeared into another car. Lin Mo did not complain. He comforted himself by thinking that the girl might have been so scared that she left without saying anything.

Perhaps he was feeling lucky and thought that he was strong-bodied. Lin Mo and the two passersby merely cursed at the car that escaped and reported the incident to the nearby police station before continuing their separate ways. The traffic police would send the compensation to Lin Mo once they found the car. Whether or not the driver’s license would be revoked or not had nothing to do with Lin Mo. The relevant processes would proceed automatically without Lin Mo worrying.

Lin Mo thought he did not sustain many injuries, but he did not expect that the impact was not as simple as surface injuries. He did not know the injuries in his internal organs were becoming more serious with the delay of time. There were minor symptoms, but the mindset that ‘the body of someone who passed the medical examinations for a pilot could not be weak’ left him unconcerned. If he had gone to the hospital directly for a closer examination at that time and did whatever was necessary, be it surgery, injections, and medications, he might have recovered within two or three months of recuperation. However, he ignored the symptoms.

On the day of the cosplay competition, the injury that Lin Mo neglected suddenly became critical as he left his house. He pulled out his phone and was about to call for help when he collapsed in the alley in his knight getup. It was all too late for regrets when he realized that it was all related to the previous car accident.

Right at that moment, a black hole appeared on the wall behind Lin Mo. The darkness that devoured the light caused the entire alley to darken, as if day had turned into night. A golden light that seemed to be wrapping around a human figure sprang out from the darkness and collided with Lin Mo. As though two phantoms reflected onto each other, Lin Mo overlapped and merged with that figure. The particles of the figure decomposed in a flash and became a faint mist, seeming to have lost and gained something at the same time.

The black hole came and went faster than a fly could flutter its wings. The alley returned to normal as though nothing had happened. However, the style of the armor of the collapsed figure had completely changed.

Perhaps a god was manipulating everything. He digested the remaining memory of Lin Mo after the fusion. The two people of different worlds superimposed onto each other. It was probably a soul synchronization more advanced than soul resonance. Perhaps it was destiny for the same person from two different worlds to overlap because of the supreme law of the world.

Molin stood motionlessly at the edge of the riverbank, staring at the city lights across the river. He took out the metal egg from the compartment of his breastplate. Dragon eggs were at least the height of a seven-year-old child without exception. He certainly would not believe that Gold Coin would lay a palm-sized egg for him, especially since it was a male Giant Dragon. Although it had not appeared around him, this golden egg might be inextricably linked with Gold Coin.

Internal injuries, even the original injuries, disappeared the moment Molin and Lin Mo merged into one. At the same time, Molin’s ninth-grade light battle aura was left with almost nothing. He had consumed almost all of his battle aura on the stage when he swung his sword. It seemed to be hinting to him that the once admirable high-grade battle aura was the price of healing his injuries. There was indeed no free lunch in the world. No matter in his previous or the current world, Molin agreed with this line.

This was a strange world. Molin’s first impression of this world was that the air was terrible. Although the food looked delicate, it did not seem as real. It was a completely different way of life. Imperial power had long been abolished, and social rank was measured purely through money. The interactions between people were sophisticated, even to the point of being better than some government officials of certain cities in the empire.

War was similarly grand. The era of cold weapons was gone forever, but the current fighting style allowed ordinary people to become combat power quickly. Everything was inseparable from the use of tools. They were unexpectedly creative, far more developed than his original world. It was almost a one-sided extremity, just like how he would become a force in the air in this country again.

He would not be riding on flying creatures like Giant Dragons or Thunder Sparrows but mechanical structures called ‘airplanes’. Their speed and power were not inferior to those of Molin’s original world. Some of them were even stronger in some aspects. The ultimate strategic power, ‘nuclear weapons’, was rather terrible as well, and they could even destroy the world. However, the decision-makers of the countries used them with care, and even crazy tyrants would not use something that would spell their own ruin casually.

Rumble!

A white water line came from the east to the west of the river. Several people with red armbands on the river embankment shouted at Molin while waving the light sticks in their hands. They also sounded the electric horn desperately. “The tide is coming. People on the river embankment, quickly run away!”

The patrol squad of the river embankment. Molin knew the identity of these people through Lin Mo’s incomplete memories. However, he did not care about them at all. When he was tempering his physical strength previously, he had stood naked, holding the Dragon Slaying Sword on the slippery reef by the seaside in thunderstorms. He faced waves that grew taller and taller and swung his sword bravely without retreating. What was there to be afraid of this little tide.

The tidal waves of the Qiantang River, famous for swallowing up numerous lives every year, galloped toward him like a horse. The unstoppable waved piled several meters high. White tidal lines were exceptionally striking in the yellow river. It grew taller as it ran along the narrow river embankment, going up to ten meters in height.

“This child is going to die!” An old uncle of the patrol squad looked at the figure still standing on the tidal barrage. Dusk and his old eyes made it difficult for him to see Molin’s armor, saving himself a shock.

In the other world, Aca and Team Leader Gardel might have successfully escaped the range of the Ultimate Spatial Hell. However, pardon this loyal servant of yours, Emperor of the Sland Empire. Farewell, my Dragon Knight Legion brothers.

Molin turned away slowly after settling his emotions. His original world had completely bid him farewell, and he could only continue living in this world as Lin Mo. The power of Ultimate Spatial Hell either killed everything within its effective range or permanently exiled everything into the turbulent flow of space. Perhaps some of the luckier ones like him were thrown into a different world. However, it would be almost impossible for them to find their way back.
