A journey into an infinite dimension

Is it because you don’t want to tell yourself?

"Find a few people."

As Kaguya's gaze dimmed slightly, Kaya, who had come back to his senses from the sudden system prompt, changed his original idea.

This sudden mission hinted at Kaguya's extraordinaryness in both explicit and implicit ways, and it appeared at this time. Even without thinking, Kaguya guessed the purpose of his adopted sister.

Although he was reluctant to let any uncommon factors into Kaguya's life at first, since the Honkai Will gave a rare hint, this aimless job as a 'tutor' has officially begun.

"Kaguya, do you want to go with us?"

"......May I?"

Blinking, Kaguya, who had been feeling a little disappointed, was stunned for a moment as she had not expected to be invited so suddenly.

"Of course, and I'll also fill you in on some of the things about my past that I briefly mentioned."

Smiling, Jia Ye said.

"Are you ready to forge a brand new worldview?"

Chapter 318: Poker? I don't know how to play

The world-famous 'Gambling City', Las Vegas.

This is the most populous city in Nevada, USA. It has a huge tourism, shopping, and vacation industry centered around the gambling industry. It is one of the world's famous resorts known as the "City That Never Sleeps."

Las Vegas is often seen as a paradise on earth for eating, drinking, playing, having fun and gambling, especially gambling.

It can be said that every casino in Las Vegas is greedily seizing wealth from the world and devouring the wealth of those with weak wills all the time.

Here, miracles happen every day - no matter whether you are from the poor class or the rich class, as long as you are lucky enough, you can get a huge fortune through gambling here, which is enough to even change your life, like entering heaven.

At the same time, this is also the darkest hell - except for the lucky few who are extremely rare compared to the total number, every bet made by others to trigger a miracle is only to increase the wealth of some people.

And naturally, where there are people, there is a dark side, and this principle also applies here.

Because only those who can truly walk home with the wealth they have won and live to the end of their life can be called "lucky".

It is both heaven and hell, this is the best adjective to describe this place.

And at this moment, in one of the casinos in Las Vegas, a miraculous victory is taking place.

"9, 10, J, Q, K. It's a little off, but it's still a straight flush. I'm really lucky."

A middle-aged man with soft silver hair and bangs slanting to the right that slightly cover his right eye, wearing a high-end and retro black suit, gently lifted the two playing cards covering the gambling table in front of him, and smiled politely at the stunned dealer and other players.

Mature, elegant and humble, polite yet calm and reserved.

This is the first impression that everyone who sees this man will have.

The temperament that naturally emanates from him makes him look like an elegant gentleman from the Middle Ages, and the faint scent of elegant perfume is always stirring the hearts of the opposite sex.

Especially his amazing performance at this moment caused the female guests surrounding the gambling table to cast meaningful glances at him, regardless of their age.

The other male spectators and the players at the gambling table couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, their stunned expressions as if they had witnessed some unbelievable development.

"How could it be another straight flush?!"

"Seventh straight flush... Hey, hey, hey, is this real?"

"After seven games, he's already won several hundred million, right?"

"This man..."

Some players who had almost put all their chips into this game stood up and pointed at the man, and even cursed at the dealer's nose.

"Damn it, you're cheating!!!"

"How is it possible that every hand is a straight flush? You must be a shill hired by this casino!!"

"Where's the security guard?! Break his hands and feet! He's definitely cheating!"

"Hey, how do you deal the cards, you rubbish? Why do you always deal him good cards, but deal us such bad cards?!"

The commotion at this table also attracted the attention of guests at other gambling tables. As the situation escalated, the scene suddenly became full of noise and tension.

Faced with this situation, the faces of the surrounding staff and dealers suddenly turned extremely dark.

Especially the dealer who was innocently implicated, he even wanted to cry.

You are a bunch of idiots. Do you think that you can get a commission just because someone lost so much money in the gambling game you hosted?

The possibility of having your salary docked or even losing your life is higher! !

As another target of public criticism, the man not only did not feel any retreat, he even seemed not to care about the insults and slanders of the people around him. He just slowly picked up the wine glass at hand and sipped the wine in the glass calmly without even looking around.

His arrogant attitude only added fuel to the fire and stimulated the emotions and nerves of the people around him. Some of the more impulsive people had already raised their fists, ready to make the man's handsome face bloom.

"----ah!!"

"What do you want to do?!"

"Let me go, do you know who I am?!?"

"it hurts!!"

"He's the one who cheated, catch him!"

However, just as the fists were about to be thrown, countless men in black rushed in from the surroundings and quickly controlled these impulsive guests. Ignoring their shouting, they mercilessly pressed them down on the gambling table, unable to move.

"Thank you for all the trouble, Ms. Isabena."

It was not until this moment that the man slowly stood up from his seat and smiled at a graceful lady who was walking towards him surrounded by people in black.

"It doesn't matter. This is a deal between us, Mr. Hilbert."

Gently lifting her skirt to the man named Hilbert, the lady called Isabena smiled elegantly.

Although her attitude seemed very calm, the look she gave Hilbert was filled with undisguised desire and passion. She did not look like a weak woman, but more like a carnivorous female beast.

"I've already put a quarter of my winnings on the gambling table. My apologies."

As if he couldn't stand Isabena's gaze, he returned a slight salute, then Hilbert picked up the suitcase beside him and slowly left the casino.

......

......

After leaving the casino, Hilbert first got into the luxury car he had driven, and then after driving to a sparsely populated suburb, he got out of the car and walked into an uninhabited forest carrying a suitcase containing chips worth hundreds of millions.

Step…Step…Step…Step…

The hustle and bustle of the downtown gradually faded away. In the silent woods, only Hilbert's footsteps echoed. Against the backdrop of the birdsong in the forest, the place seemed particularly peaceful.

The moonlight spread down like a veil, and as it gradually penetrated deeper, the visibility around was gradually decreasing. At the same time, the cold feeling was constantly depriving the living of their body temperature.

Soon, as Hilbert moved forward, an amusement park that seemed to be abandoned and gave people an inexplicable feeling of gloom and desolation against the backdrop of the night appeared before his eyes.

"Come out, please, the rats following me."

As if he had finally arrived at his destination, he stopped in front of the rusty entrance of the amusement park, raised his deep golden eyes slightly and looked at the abandoned amusement park in front of him, which made his hair stand on end. Hilbert suddenly spoke without turning his head.

Huhuhu————

A cold breeze blew gently through the woods, causing a rustling sound of leaves rubbing against each other. The birds singing in the woods seemed to have sensed the current atmosphere, and their melodious calls suddenly stopped.

No one responded to Hilbert's words. He was the only one standing there calmly in front of the silent abandoned amusement park.

"Now that we've followed you here, what's the point in hiding any longer?"

As if feeling somewhat helpless about the situation, Hilbert sighed softly, then turned his back to the playground and faced the woods behind him.

"I've even prepared a nice burial place for you. Isn't this just a waste of my sincerity?"

As Hilbert's soliloquy finished, the wind gradually grew stronger.

In a trance, it seemed as if there were whispers and murmurs carried by the night wind. The only source of light—the crescent moon in the night sky above my head—had been covered by large clouds for more than half.

The light gradually became dimmer, and finally, when the clouds completely blocked the bright moon, the light disappeared, and the entire forest and playground were plunged into darkness.

At the moment the light disappeared, the abandoned amusement park behind Hilbert seemed to wake up. A certain breath began to permeate and diffuse in the air, and the sound in the wind became clearer and clearer.

I could already hear the sound mixed in the wind.

It was a wail, a howl, and a roar.

It is hatred, resentment, malice and unwillingness.

That is definitely not a sound that humans can make, nor is it a sound that can be produced naturally.

“Uooa ...

In the silent woods, several heart-wrenching screams suddenly rang out, breaking the silence and adding a touch of horror and weirdness to the night.

The night gradually deepens.

After continuing for a while, the screams gradually weakened and finally returned to complete silence.

Only a hint of rusty smell floating in the air explained what had just happened.

Hilbert seemed to have noticed nothing about all this. He just stood there and spoke again after a while.

"Excuse me for making such a fuss, guests from afar. The rats that might have interfered with our communication have been dealt with."

He still had that gentle tone and that gentlemanly demeanor. If someone had just seen Hilbert, they might not have guessed what had just happened here.

"Thank you, Mr. Hilbert Hills."

Under the cover of night, a young voice responded to Hilbert's words.

Reflected in Hilbert's pupils, there were two figures standing in front of him without knowing when, without any sign, as if they were a frame of the picture suddenly inserted at that position.

They were a young man with flame eyes wearing a strange black military uniform, with a gentle smile on his handsome face, and a girl with cherry-like hair who was as delicate as a fairy.

"Or should I call you that? Paridon Orekarux Hilbert, the high priest from the ancient deep-sea empire of Atlantis."

In Jiaye's vision, countless hideous and terrifying vengeful spirits were slowly retreating from the woods, gathering behind Hilbert, and finally blending into the shadow under his feet.

"I haven't heard that name in a long time."

He shook his head with a sigh, and then Hilbert slowly raised his hand to comb his silver hair back. In an instant, his gentlemanly demeanor was gone, replaced by a noble and dignified temperament.

"However, the high priest Paridon died with the fall of Atlantis. Now, the only one left here is just an ordinary old man."

Smiling, Hilbert gently extended his hand to signal Jiaye and Kaguya.

"If you don't mind, could you please come with me to another place to talk?"

"As the host pleases, please."

Chapter 319: Quantum Mechanics in Undecided Times, Ancient Civilization Atlantis

In a conference room of a hotel in Las Vegas.

"I'm not particularly interested in wasting time on rhetoric and probing, so I just went straight to the point."

Sitting beside Kaguya with a calm expression, without touching the luxurious wine and food on the table, Kaguya looked at Hilbert sitting opposite, whose temperament was completely different from when he was in the casino, and spoke softly.

"Mr. Hilbert, since you once offered the Ring of Tiamat, could you please join my family and become my guardian?"

"Atlantis", commonly known as the Atlantis Empire, Atlantis, and Atlantic Island, was recorded and written by an ancient Greek philosopher. It actually existed in a prehistoric civilization about 10,000 years ago and was also the "center of the world" at that time.

At that time, "Atlantis" possessed technological power that surpassed that of its time, and even overflowing resources and a huge population base. At the same time, it also possessed powerful non-common sense power. It was the only most powerful civilization among all known civilizations on Earth.

Only the successive emperors of Atlantis and the high priest Hilbert before them knew that Atlantis had achieved such success because they were the chosen power to enshrine and protect the "foundation of this world."

Because they were chosen and given a mission, they were able to receive corresponding rewards—advanced technology and unmatched power.

It can be said that the mystery and profundity of the universe do not exist for Atlantis, because they already have the ability to freely travel throughout the universe.

Things that are impossible for human civilization today were just a piece of cake back then.

However, such a powerful force is now regarded as a fictional legend. Why?

Because "Atlantis" perished around 10,000 BC.

It did not come from enemy invasion, nor was it caused by a natural disaster.

It's just because I killed myself.

The desire for greater power and a desire that will never be satisfied is common to all human beings, even those from prehistoric super civilizations are no exception.

"...Is that so, Olihagang—No, has the Tiamat Ring finally found its true owner?"
