Fighting you is like being in jail.

"Anyone who has come into contact with me will notice if they observe carefully that their eyes are filled with sadness when they look at me, especially when you are around..."

"Clearly, clearly this is the only way I can see you, so why does everyone say it's delusional?"

Why can't I just stay here in silence?

She cried out to Leng Chang, wiping away her tears again and again.

"Because...it wasn't your fault, you made the right choice."

Leng Chang's gentle voice rang out, once again revealing her inner conflict.

I hope you get better.

"This is what you expected, otherwise I wouldn't have appeared."

"I'm sorry... please, you must survive..."

A voice, as if masked by static, came from Ye Lisha's mouth: "Okay..."

This moment feels just like that moment back then.

The next second, Ye Lisha felt everything go black and she could no longer feel anything.

She resisted the surrounding darkness with her inner sorrow as she fell into an endless abyss.

The moment Ye Lisha opened her eyes again, she took a deep, rapid breath, like a drowning person gasping for air the instant they surface.

"hiss--!"

In the ward, Ye Lisha suddenly opened her eyes, her pupils contracting as she stared at the ceiling that appeared before her.

Footsteps sounded beside me, and I glanced to the side to see a middle-aged man in military uniform and the attending physician.

"How long have I been in a coma?"

Ye Lisha looked at the doctor and asked in confusion, but her emotions were extremely calm, as if she had seen through everything and nothing could disturb her.

"We found you unconscious in the living room, with medicine scattered around you... It's been two days since we found you. How are you feeling?"

"It feels like being in hell..."

She gave a bitter smile, knowing she would never see him again; the gentle Leng Chang who had always supported her was now completely gone.

He said he'd take me to the amusement park...

There were no farewells, no words of comfort, only a cold, cruel, and bloody reality laid out before us.

The attending physician hesitated for a moment, then nodded silently.

After their last conversation with the general, both sides ultimately decided to forgo treatment.

But no one expected that Ye Lisha herself would recover from various mental disorders, which can be described as a medical miracle, only such a medical miracle is too cruel.

After comprehensive analysis... the final result was even more cruel: Ye Lisha saw that Leng Chang was not the real Leng Chang, but rather the embodiment of the guide she desired.

The mind is amazing. She knew she couldn't hold on under those circumstances, but the mental stimulation created an object of dependence, which gradually guided her to accept reality and heal herself.

She has now miraculously recovered.

But... isn't this an even more terrifying mental disorder?

The attending physician saw through it but didn't say anything, feeling an indescribable sense of unease.

It seemed that no words could describe everything at the moment; only silent bitterness remained.

At this moment, Ye Lisha looked at the man in military uniform and said seriously:

"Ye Lisha, requesting to return to the team."

……

A month later.

Ye Lisha died in the Battle of the East District at the young age of 28.

Chapter 271 Whose Hat Fell Off?

At the university where Leng Chang works.

As night fell, Leng Chang, exhausted from reading all day, walked across the playground. He had never imagined that he would study so intently, to the point that it made his scalp tingle.

But it doesn't matter, it seems that everything is not a problem at the moment.

Overall, humanity held a subtle advantage, managing to thwart most of the beast tides. Although several small spatial vortexes appeared, they did not cause chaos.

It's just that there's an added danger, and we've gotten used to it, like a car accident.

Just as Leng Chang reached the gate, he heard the sound of a helicopter overhead.

hum hum hum!

A strong wind rushed towards the ground, stirring up dust on the playground and making everyone's eyes blurry, forcing them to squint or even raise their hands to shield themselves from the sandstorm.

The students around were shocked by what they saw, and when they saw the TS-09 logo on the helicopter overhead, they gaped and swallowed a mouthful of sand.

"Holy crap! Special forces!?"

"Who's got such a big shot? Coming all the way here by helicopter?"

"At least a school-level official?"

"Look, someone's coming out!"

Amidst gasps from those around them, the door of the armed helicopter was opened, revealing a young woman in a black military uniform—this was Ye Lisha.

Her dark eyes scanned the playground, finally settling on the person she had been longing for.

"It's so good to see you again."

“You haven’t even joined the army yet… but I’ve been in control of the situation for over a decade, and I’m in a much better position than in my previous life.”

"This time... I absolutely won't miss it."

Her voice was barely audible under the spinning helicopter rotors, but that didn't matter. What mattered was that at that moment, her eyes were fixed on Leng Chang.

The next second, she took a step and fell straight down from the sky.

"Holy crap! Jumping directly?! How much blood essence would that take?"

"Brilliant!"

The students on the playground were utterly astonished and expressed their envy.

Boom!

With the sound of Ye Lisha landing, she stood on the ground of the playground. The strong air currents lifted her black military overcoat, and her dark eyes gleamed with a sharp light.

Then she stood there, motionless, under everyone's gaze.

She stared intently at Leng Chang, who was about to walk out of the school gate, her face flushed with a mixture of embarrassment and anxiety, but she remained still and watched quietly.

Her slightly trembling legs said it all.

My feet are numb...

Ye Lisha stared at Leng Chang with blushing cheeks. She had wanted to give Leng Chang a cool entrance, but she was too excited and forgot to release her tension, landing directly on the ground.

But it doesn't matter!

It was just instinct; she could overcome it in a second and take a step with an unwavering determination.

When Leng Jian saw Ye Lisha walking towards him, he immediately felt that this girl should not be allowed to live.

No mistake! This feeling, this momentum!

Just like when Jotaro clenched his fist and approached Dio, it was as if this guy wanted to kill me!?

There's no reason for this. I don't even know her. Why would this guy want to kill me?

When Ye Lisha stood in front of Leng Chang, a gentle smile appeared on her face as she gazed at him with delight.

"Leng Chang, it's great to finally meet you. I'm the commander of the Ninth Special Forces Detachment in Canglan City. I'm here to talk to you about your plans after graduation."

"You came all this way just to find me?"

Leng Chang cast an uncertain glance at Ye Lisha, then looked past her toward the helicopter landing on the playground.

“That’s right, you are an exceptional talent, and I need you to join my team.”

Ye Lisha nodded seriously, her dark eyes filled with anticipation and a desire to rush forward.

Leng Chang raised an eyebrow, sensing something, and asked subtly, "Have we met before?"

"No. I know you have many questions, but that's not a problem. I can explain everything to you. Now, come with me to a place where we can talk."

She glanced at Leng Chang reluctantly, then turned and walked toward the principal's office.

"?"

Leng Chang was completely confused and bewildered, but he did not hesitate to follow Ye Lisha.

……

University President's Office.

The middle-aged principal looked at Ye Lisha and Leng Chang, who were sitting on the sofa opposite his office, with a smile on his face.

"Good, good, good. Leng Chang, I knew you were no ordinary person. I never expected you to achieve such success. Our university will definitely live up to the expectations of the military. We are very happy that you were specially recruited into Comrade Ye's team."

The principal's beaming face left Leng Chang completely bewildered. He turned to look at Ye Lisha with a puzzled expression, feeling that this matter had nothing to do with him.

This guy must have picked the wrong person.

"Is it possible? I mean, possible, that Comrade Ye has contacted the wrong person? I don't even know her."

"No, I trust my eyes."

Ye Lisha looked at Leng Chang with certainty, certainty, and conviction.

"Fine……"

Although we don't know what happened, one thing is certain: the other party definitely mistook us for someone else.

If not, then it must be that one's identity overlapped with that of others when the world merged.

Because God does not take on any object, He knows nothing.

After the principal finished talking with Ye Lisha, Ye Lisha asked Leng Chang seriously, "Leng Chang, what is your decision? We fully respect your choice."

"This……"

Still bewildered, Leng Chang was a bit overwhelmed by the situation, but one thing was certain: joining the army would allow him to obtain information that he couldn't get outside.

So there's only one answer!

That is to join.

"I'll join!"

Leng looked at Ye Lisha with the confidence befitting a college student, his expression full of affirmation.

The principal's smile widened even more; these were all achievements! Not only that, but they could even secure more funding.

Upon receiving an affirmative answer, Ye Lisha smiled happily.

"Then come with me, it's time to eat, let's go get something to eat together."

She stood up and took a step outside, not forgetting to pull Leng Chang along with her.

……

In the restaurant.

Ye Lisha ordered some of Leng Chang's favorite dishes. When the food was served, Leng Chang felt a little lost, as he had a subtle sense of familiarity with the dishes he was eating.

Why did this guy order all the things I used to like?

Does she really know me?

No! This subtle sense of familiarity, and the grasp of my personal preferences…

Caw! Oh no! It's a reborn person!

In an instant, Leng Chang analyzed an impossible idea, after all, how could a world of high martial arts be without reborn people, especially a world where even Emperor Ruyan existed.

Doesn't that mean... this woman in front of me will have some kind of strange connection with me in the future?
