Chapter 9: Golden Finger and Going Home (Please Collect It)

The Chinese people believe that a fox dies in its own hill and leaves return to their roots. Kai was born in a more traditional family in his previous life. →He attaches great importance to this, just like he would go back to his hometown every year during the Spring Festival, even if he had no relatives in his hometown, but if he didn't do so, he would always feel that something was missing.

It was the same after coming to this world. He was an adult with a complete world view, so even if his parents and relatives in this life were very good to Kai, Kai was not a real child after all, and he was always a little alienated from them. He was afraid that if he really accepted his relatives in this life, he would forget his relatives and friends in another world. Although he was not sure whether this would really happen, he always had such a thorn in his heart.

Especially when Kai's golden finger awakened, Kai's desire to go home became stronger and stronger. Speaking of the golden finger, Kai didn't know where it came from. Anyway, when he was ten years old and followed King Uther to hunt for the first time, he killed a half-grown wild boar independently, and his golden finger awakened.

Kai's ability is very special, even a little evil. At the beginning, Kai was even very repulsive to it.

Kai's ability is very simple, which is to 'gain experience by killing people'. Kai is not sure whether his description is accurate or not.

But after he killed the wild boar, he could feel a surge of energy flowing into his body from the wild boar. This energy made Kai's strength stronger, his body more sensitive, his mind clearer, his thinking more flexible, and his memory stronger.

At the same time, there were many attribute panels in his mind that would be found in online games. The panel was very simple, with only a few lines of text. There were three attributes: strength, agility, and spirit. And an energy bar. The three attributes were easy to understand. Basically, anyone who had played a little online game or even read a little similar novel could understand them.

What really made Kai feel daunted was the energy bar.

Every time Kai killed a creature, the energy bar would grow a little. When the energy bar was full, Kai would get a point, which could be added to the three attributes.

Moreover, Kai's ability could take away different amounts of energy for different objects. → Generally speaking, the rules it followed were related to two things. One was the intelligence of the object Kai killed. The higher the intelligence, the more energy Kai could plunder.

So humans become one of Kai's best prey.

The second is strength. Whether it is an animal, a monster or a human, the stronger the strength, the more energy can be plundered.

At the same time, this ability will also plunder the ability of the killed object. However, this depends on the probability, a bit like killing monsters to get equipment skill books or something. Generally speaking, the explosion rate is very low, and many abilities are useless to Kai, or even cannot be learned. Kai can choose some of these abilities as his own, and use energy points to strengthen these abilities.

This golden finger gave Kai a very bad feeling at first, because all these abilities encouraged Kai to kill.

But soon Kai adjusted his mentality. He used to be a soldier, and then he has been a policeman. His psychological quality is absolutely strong. He soon figured it out. To put it bluntly, this golden finger is actually a weapon. Weapons are never scary. They are neither good nor evil. The only scary thing is always the person who uses the weapon.

Kai's experience in his previous life gave him enough confidence to use this "weapon" reasonably.

After adjusting his mentality, Kai began to look at his abilities more peacefully, and then he saw the hope of returning home from this ability! With this golden finger, it means that he has the capital to go home!

So he has planned his plan to go home since he was thirteen years old.

First of all, magic and witchcraft are his first choice. After all, no matter how you look at it, his crossing is definitely a supernatural event, so using supernatural power to solve it is undoubtedly the best way.

Unfortunately, King Uther has been cracking down on witchcraft and magic since Arthur was born, causing witchcraft and magic to disappear directly in Camelot. Even if Kai wants to learn, there is no place to learn. So Kai can only change his plan, he must leave Camelot.

He trained hard and strengthened his strength to prepare for his departure from Camelot. Finally, at the age of eighteen, he defeated knights from various countries in the Knights' Tournament and became the champion knight. He proved his ability, and then at the enfeoffment ceremony, he took the opportunity to ask for a trip.

Although King Uther was reluctant to let Kai go and forced Kai to be confined to his house. But Kai is really like King Uther in some ways. At least they are just as stubborn. Finally, one night, Kai, who was confined by King Uther, left a letter and ran away.

In the letter he left behind, Kai did not say that he wanted to go home, but that he wanted to travel around the world, and left a ten-year deadline as a consolation.

Kai thought that ten years should be enough for him to find the answer. If he could go back, then this ten-year agreement would only be a consolation, so that King Uther and the others would have time to accept the fact that he would never come back.

If he could not go back... anyway, ten years would definitely be enough.

Then it was Kai's ten-year trip around the world.

In these ten years, Kai traveled all over the world...

This is not quite accurate, Kai's footprints have not gone that far, and he has only traveled in Europe, Asia Minor and North Africa in these ten years.

But in these places, Kai met many people and many things, many of which were bizarre. It was also these experiences that caused Kai to suffer a very serious blow.

He was sure that the world he was in now was not the same as the original world!

For example, in Northern Europe, he met the Asgardians. Kai didn't care at first, until he wandered around Asia Minor and returned to Asgard. Kai probably guessed who he met.

Or God...

Kai was not very familiar with Norse mythology before, but he had seen Marvel's Thor movie after all! He also knew that frost giants, fire giants, dwarves, and Asgard were elements of Norse mythology! Combining his experience in Asia Minor, it was really not difficult to guess.

Although he did not meet Odin, let alone Thor, the god of thunder, but when many things are combined, it can be basically determined that Asgard is the prototype of Norse mythology. Later, he thought about it and figured it out. It was normal that he did not meet Odin and Thor, because although he was not sure when he was in, it should be BC.

Kai had not yet discovered the Jewish people in the Middle East... That is to say, it was still a long time before the birth of Jesus... So BC was not wrong at all.

Thinking about it this way, it was normal that Odin was not born during this period. By the way, speaking of this, there is another interesting story. When Kai returned to Northern Europe from Asia Minor this time, he visited his friend, King Buri of Asgard.

Buri was not there at the time, and it was Buri's son, Bauer, who received him. At that time, Kai accidentally let it slip and asked if there was a child named Odin in Asgard...

Bauer was very honest and really helped Kai look around, but found that there was no child named Odin. Bauer was curious about why Kai wanted to find a child named Odin. Kai could only make up a story and said that he heard in a place that a child named Odin would do great things in the future.

Bauer really believed this statement, so he decided to name his first child Odin...

So the name of the future king of the gods was determined.

But at that time, Kai was already numb, so he was not very excited.

Could he tell Bauer: Not only did he meet the legendary Olympian gods in the East, but he also accidentally cheated on Zeus. In the more distant Sumer region, he met the legendary Gilgamesh, and fought a battle with the ancient Egyptian gods together with this first hero king of mankind?

In short, it was because of these strange and bizarre experiences that Kai completely understood that this world was completely different from his original world. At least in his world, the above-mentioned people he met were all mythological figures!

Before, when Kai traveled through time and met King Uther and King Arthur, it could be said that it was a historical misunderstanding. After all, in the world of his previous life, whether Arthur existed or not was questionable, and it could not be absent. Maybe he really existed?

But when those mythological figures stood in front of Kai alive, the conclusion was easy to draw.

Before, Kai always thought that he only needed to travel through time to return to the future, but now it seems that he not only has to travel through time, but also the whole world.

However, Kai still did not give up. After finishing his journey in Asia Minor, he decided to continue to the East. After all, no matter what, it is the closest place to home. But the next blow is even greater.

Kai, Gilgamesh, Enkidu and others set out for the East. As a result, only Kai and Gilgamesh returned, while Enkidu and his followers all died. On the road to the East, there are countless monsters and horrific disasters caused by countless mysterious forces. It was pure luck that Kai and Gilgamesh came back alive.

The way to "go home" is completely cut off!

...

Thinking about these things, Kai drank a pot of wine unknowingly. Just when Kai was about to turn around to get another pot of wine, a cloak was draped over Kai.

It turned out to be Morgana, who had not slept. She was very happy tonight, really happy, so excited that she couldn't sleep. Then she accidentally found Kai drinking on the terrace. Seeing that he was still drinking outside so late, Morgana was afraid that he would catch a cold, so she found a cloak for Kai to put on.

Kai had been immersed in his own world just now, and didn't notice Morgana's arrival at all.

"It's so late, don't drink... it's not good for your health." Although Kai's actions tonight almost made the relationship between the two clear, Morgana was still a little shy at this moment.

Kai looked at the beautiful Morgana, and suddenly a sense of absurdity surged in his heart. In his previous life, he was just a small policeman, with little money, busy and dangerous work, and it was really difficult for good girls to like him. Now there is such a beautiful girl who loves him deeply, what else can he be hypocritical about?

Thinking of this, Kai smiled, and at the same time buried his longing for his hometown in the deepest part. Since he can't go back, he will live a good life here... probably.
