Hijacking the Timeline

The next day, the Dusk Wolf Rune Crystal Feng Qi had ordered online was delivered to his dormitory.

After thanking the campus security guard who handed him the package, Feng Qi closed the door and sat down at his desk.

He skillfully unwrapped the package, retrieved the Dusk Wolf Rune Crystal from its metal box, and without hesitation, popped it into his mouth, chewed, and swallowed.

This single bite was worth 880,000 credits.

As his stomach churned and his body temperature rose, the energy progress bar on his interface began to surge, leaping from 41.76% to 150.8%.

Compared to the Dusk Wolf Rune Crystal he had purchased previously, this one showed improved efficacy.

He wasn’t surprised.

After all, reality wasn’t a game. Even domain creatures of the same species couldn’t be identical; variations in their attributes were perfectly normal.

Now that his energy reserves were fully replenished, he met the requirements to enter the Dream Realm.

However, instead of immediately lying down to sleep, he opened his notebook and continued planning for the future, determined to maximize the benefits of each Dream Realm entry.

Lost in thought, he added a few more notes to his notebook.

Feeling he had done enough, he lay down on his bed and tried to fall asleep.

After a moment with his eyes closed, Feng Qi opened them again.

He realized he seemed to have lost the ability to fall asleep quickly. Whenever he closed his eyes, his mind would flood with visions of the future, leaving him inexplicably anxious.

The source of his anxiety was pressure.

He got up, grabbed two bottles of liquor from the refrigerator, opened them, and gulped them down before collapsing back onto the bed.

Under the influence of the alcohol, his mind gradually emptied, and drowsiness crept in. As he lay there, his expression softened into peaceful repose...

He opened his eyes to a biting, sinister wind.

The world of the Dream Realm remained familiar: mountains of withered bones beneath his feet, desolation stretching as far as the eye could see.

Having mentally prepared himself, Feng Qi wasn’t fazed by the scene. Instead, he grinned and called out:

”Narrator, miss me?”

Fuck, time to get up and work again.

Feng Qi: ...

”Could you be a little more civilized?” he asked, slightly exasperated.

Fine, then, esteemed host, what the fuck do you want to ask? I’ll answer if I feel like it.

Feng Qi: ...

”Never mind. You can go back to sleep. I’ll call you if I need anything.” With that, he raised his right leg and kicked Little Cripple, who was just about to stand up, sending his head flying several meters away.

This time, his goals in the Dream Realm were clear:

First, he would review character information. Then, he would study the foundational cultivation technique courses. Finally, he would learn a specific cultivation technique.

If time allowed, he also wanted to research major historical events of that era.

Most importantly, he needed to check the messages his future self had left in his private email.

These messages might contain crucial information he needed, such as the high-level access account for the Star City Shelter, secret events investigated by his future self, or potential problems the Dark Organization might encounter during its establishment, allowing him to prepare for and avoid risks.

With these thoughts in mind, he began walking eastward.

The Dream Realm’s terrain had subtly changed this time, and the strength of the living dead had noticeably diminished. These changes were clearly a result of his actions in the real world, causing minor alterations to the future.

However, pinpointing the exact cause was impossible.

Just as a missing horseshoe nail could lead to the fall of an empire, the origin of a chain reaction could stem from something seemingly insignificant. Over time, these small events could snowball into a series of cascading consequences, ultimately producing monumental effects.

The altered terrain made it difficult for him to locate the black stele above the Star City Shelter.

Approaching the rust-stained stone tablet, he bit his finger and dripped blood into the blood groove. As mechanical, synthesized sounds crackled intermittently, the stele slid to the right, revealing a metallic passage.

Having grown familiar with this procedure, he immediately stepped into the passage and headed straight for the database.

Reaching the central control room of the underground shelter, he wiped away the dust covering the console. After identifying the power button, he pressed it.

The shelter’s reserve power activated, and the screen before the console flickered to life.

A series of symbols scrolled across the screen as the database booted up, displaying a list of options.

Filled with anticipation, he first opened the search function and entered his name, eager to see what information the future held about him.

After a few seconds of waiting, the future information related to him appeared:

Feng Qi (Human Traitor)

Age at Death: 27

Cause of Death: Public Execution

Date of Death: April 3, 2032

Evaluation:

In his early years, Feng Qi displayed exceptional talent. During his time at Star City Academy, he developed a series of groundbreaking body cultivation and spirit cultivation techniques that would influence generations to come. He was widely regarded as the most promising rising star of his era. However, he betrayed the world’s expectations, harboring rebellious intentions and secretly sabotaging the progress of Human Civilization.

While serving as an instructor at Star City Academy, he brainwashed and recruited students, personally establishing the malevolent ”Dark Organization.” This group carried out a series of clandestine operations to obstruct human development. Fortunately, their activities were discovered in time. On April 3, 2032, Feng Qi was publicly executed by beheading at Star City First Execution Ground, serving as a stark warning to others.

Blue Future: I came here to spit on you. You’re rotten to the core. So many people in that era had such high hopes for you, and your teacher, Wang Jinsheng, wept bitterly on the day of your execution. It’s a disgrace to the great figures of history that they nurtured such a rebellious traitor.

Big Heart: What a waste. You had such talent, yet instead of striving for humanity’s rise, you plotted to plunge the world into chaos. You’re both hateful and pathetic.

Conquest Online: I won’t judge this man, but while researching historical records, I stumbled upon something puzzling. What exactly were the actions of Feng Qi’s secret rebel organization? Why is there no documented information about their activities?

Blood Dawn: Speaking of which, there was an unexpected incident at the execution ground that day. After watching the video, I’m suddenly less surprised that Mu Qing betrayed all of humanity. The seeds of disaster were sown long ago.

After reading his future profile, he was stunned.

I’m a traitor to humanity?

While struggling to believe it, he felt certain that some hidden force had orchestrated this, framing him with baseless accusations and turning him into a universally despised criminal.

The mastermind behind this was likely the Scarlet Research Institute.

He had formed the Dark Organization precisely to counter the Scarlet Research Institute. It was highly probable that he had been discovered during a secret operation against them, leading to his downfall.

Before checking his private messages, he hesitated briefly, then clicked the attached video button beneath his profile.

As the execution ground footage appeared, the Narrator’s voice echoed in his mind:

Live-streaming your own beheading? Bro, that’s some next-level shit! If I could send video comments, I’d spam the execution footage with a string of ”666”!

Feng Qi: ...
