The Psychic Resurrection: Riding the Mirage

In the dark passage, Kang Yu followed the mysterious man for an unknown period of time before his vision gradually became brighter.

After a moment, he suddenly felt a strong sense of oppression, as if something extremely terrifying and huge stood above his head.

He subconsciously looked up and was immediately shocked.

Above the sky, a magnificent high-rise building was looming in the clouds!

The high-rise building was ancient and quaint, surrounded by clouds and mist, like a mirage. I don’t know which dynasty it was built in the past. The style is strange and difficult to describe. Although it is magnificent, it is full of gloomy and dark everywhere. Just one look makes people feel like it is a haunted place.

While he was stunned, two white clouds floated over from a distance.

The mysterious man said coldly: "Come up, if you want to enter the [Castle in the Sky], you can only pass through the ghost cloud."

"'Castle in the Sky'? What exactly is this place?" Kang Yu asked.

The mysterious man did not answer, but stepped on the cloud.

Kang Yu followed suit and stood on the so-called "ghost cloud". His feet suddenly felt a sense of weightlessness as if he couldn't step on anything real, and a cold breath lingered from bottom to top.

In a moment, the white cloud flew up steadily and headed straight for the tall building.

He gradually saw the full picture of the building in the sky. It was not just an ancient building, but an island in the cloud, like the legendary heavenly palace.

The ghost cloud stopped at the edge of the "island" and then dissipated. Kang Yu stomped his feet lightly, but still didn't feel grounded.

There was a group of buildings in the distance, and in the middle was the tall building he saw when he was below, and next to it were other low houses.

There seemed to be no modern buildings here, and it looked more like an ancient town.

Kang Yu stared around, and the mysterious man said, "Shocked, right? I almost dropped my jaw when I first came here."

"Where exactly is this place? Who are you?" Kang Yu asked again.

The mysterious man said, "This is the branch of the Time Administration Bureau. I am Agent No. 37."

"Time Administration Bureau?" Kang Yu's heart trembled. This name gave people a sense of unknown power.

But he quickly came to his senses and asked tentatively, "What do you mean by 'assessment'?"

No. 37 said truthfully, "You have mastered the evil spirits related to time. This is the threshold indicator for joining the Time Administration Bureau."

"Before officially recruiting you, you need to be tested to evaluate your psychological and mental state, as well as your ability limits. This is the 'assessment'."

"The person responsible for assessing you is No. 52, the one you met before, who is wearing the same clothes as me."

Hearing this, Kang Yu was stunned in place, and then a huge rage rose in his heart, and he trembled all over. "Do you know that my whole family died for this so-called assessment!"

He almost shouted, and his emotions gradually got out of control.

But No. 37 said casually: "When you join the Time Administration and understand the truth of this world, you will soon understand that the death of your relatives and friends is meaningless. You may experience their death, betrayal, and even hatred countless times in the future."

"What do you mean?" Kang Yu was shocked.

"Come with me, I will explain it to you slowly." No. 37 walked towards the high-rise building in the center.

Kang Yu was in a trance for a moment, and the abnormal spiritual aura fluctuated slightly, and another person's voice echoed in his mind. His face changed, and he raised his legs to closely follow No. 37's steps.

No. 37 said as he walked: "You control the evil spirits related to time. This is a stepping stone. You are qualified to join us and understand the truth of the world."

"No matter how powerful others are, even if they can destroy the whole world in a flick of their hands, they are not qualified to contact the Time Administration, and they are not even qualified to know that the Administration exists."

There was an extreme arrogance in No. 37's tone.

Kang Yu had met many arrogant people, those second-generations born with a silver spoon in their mouths, the arrogant ghost riders, and even his former self, but none of them were as arrogant as No. 37.

As if he had noticed Kang Yu's thoughts, No. 37 sneered: "Don't think I'm bragging. The Time Management Bureau is much more powerful than you can imagine."

"Really?" Kang Yu lowered his eyes and suddenly asked: "Since I controlled the evil ghost, I have been entangled by another very scary evil ghost. Do you have a way to solve it?"

No. 37 raised his eyebrows: "Are you talking about the 'hound'?"

Kang Yu: "Hound?"

No. 37 said angrily: "No. 52, that bastard, is eager for quick success and has many small thoughts. He didn't guide you correctly at all. He only cared about his His own calculations!"

"He should have told you the intelligence about the hounds and how to avoid them as soon as possible!"

"Whether you are active or passive, as long as you travel through time, the hounds' hunting rules will be triggered, and they will keep their eyes on you and fight to the death."

"I know all this." Kang Yu interrupted No. 37's nonsense, "No. 52 taught me a way to divert the hounds' targets. I want to know if there is any way to completely solve the hounds' attacks?"

"No." No. 37 said directly.

Kang Yu: "???"

How dare you brag about how powerful you are?

"The existence of hounds is some kind of underlying basic rule. If one is eliminated, new ones will appear." No. 37 explained.

"To transfer the hunting target of hounds to others, we will only use this method as a last resort. This is a kind of fraud and will lead to the subsequent hunting frequency of hounds becoming more and more frequent."

"Normally this is what we use..." No. 37 took out a weird puppet and handed it to Kang Yu.

"This is a stand-in doll. If you put a drop of your blood on it, it will become your stand-in and bear all the harm on your behalf until it is damaged."

"After the hound kills the double, it will be deemed that you have died once and will not continue to hunt you for a period of time unless you frequently use time travel to attract the hound again."

Feeling the cold touch from his palm, Kang Yu couldn't help but clicked his tongue: "Isn't this thing very precious?"

No. 37 chuckled: "Outside, this thing is a life-saving trump card, equivalent to having a second life. But here, it is just a mass-produced supernatural item, and it is nothing."

Kang Yu was speechless for a moment, and finally got a preliminary understanding of the other party's background.

"After you officially join, you can apply for and use the stand-in doll at will." No. 37 wrote lightly.

Then his expression became serious, and he said something to Kang Yu extremely seriously:

"The future is destroyed and we all live in the past!"
