A passing traveler through the heavens

Chapter 196 Main Mission Completed

Just as Ji Lin successfully condensed the radiant golden wheel of merit, a crisp notification sound suddenly rang in his mind.

"Ding! Congratulations, host, on successfully completing the main quest. You are now authorized to leave this plane at any time."

At this moment, Ji Lin was immersed in the wonderful feeling brought by the Golden Wheel of Merit. He felt as if he had been reborn and his life level had jumped to a completely new realm.

This feeling was hard to describe, but it made him truly realize that his own strength was vastly different from before.

In the days that followed, Ji Lin first gathered with Max, Rachel, and others as a farewell before leaving.

After that, he traveled tirelessly to every corner of the United States, buying up all kinds of items and storing them all in the system space for later use.

Once everything was ready, Ji Lin took Xinghai and Huan'er into the system space and began to have in-depth communication with the system.

In an instant, a dazzling light flashed, and Ji Lin's figure vanished without a trace from the American crossover world, embarking once again on a new journey...

An antique and magnificent manor is now being mercilessly consumed by raging flames. Flames are shooting into the sky and thick smoke is billowing, making the whole scene shocking.

At the same time, a group of mysterious figures dressed in black rushed into the manor engulfed in flames like ghosts.

They moved swiftly and coordinated perfectly, clearly with a specific objective, seemingly searching urgently for someone's whereabouts.

Suddenly, a loud baby's cry pierced the night sky, sounding particularly jarring in the noisy and chaotic environment.

The group of men in black instantly locked their gazes on the direction from which the crying was coming, and then sped off towards that place without hesitation.

In no time, they arrived precisely at the front of a side room located in a secluded corner.

The moment the door was pushed open, a chilling aura rushed out, and a mysterious figure dressed in black appeared in the doorway. Inside the house, a woman was gently cradling an infant in her arms.

A hint of surprise crossed her beautiful face, but she quickly recovered and carefully placed the baby in her arms onto the soft bed beside her.

Almost at the same moment, an unexpected scene unfolded—the woman pulled out a gleaming pistol from somewhere and, without hesitation, aimed it at the black-clad man who rushed in and repeatedly pulled the trigger.

In an instant, the gunshots rang out like thunder, shaking the entire room slightly.

With several screams, the men in black at the front fell to the ground, their blood splattering everywhere and staining the ground red.

However, the fierce battle did not end there. Just then, another figure slowly walked into the manor.

The newcomer was also dressed in black, but his face was covered with a black cloth, obscuring his eyes, making one wonder if he could really see everything around him.

Strangely, despite his apparent blindness, he moved with extraordinary agility and flexibility, as if he knew every road and every corner of the place like the back of his hand.

The blindfolded man in black moved through the rooms like a ghost, and wherever he went, those who had just rushed in were brutally killed without any chance to fight back.

In the blink of an eye, the room was filled with corpses and the strong smell of blood in the air.

Finally, the blindfolded man in black approached the woman and said respectfully, "Miss, I'm late."

The woman shook her head slightly, indicating that she didn't mind, and then softly instructed, "It's alright, take the child away quickly." As she spoke, she gently handed the child to the blind man's arms.

Just as the blind man was about to say something more, suddenly, a series of noisy footsteps came from afar.

The woman's expression changed, and she suddenly pushed the blind man, urgently shouting, "Go quickly!" The blind man understood, hugged the child in his arms tightly, and in a flash, he disappeared without a trace, as if he had never been there at all.

After watching the blind man leave, the woman took a deep breath, as if she had made a decision.

With a calm and composed expression, she walked out of her room and headed towards the center of the manor.

When she stepped into this open space, she found herself surrounded by a dense crowd of men in black, all of whom had their faces covered by black masks, making it difficult to discern their true identities.

Just as the man in black was about to kill the woman, Ji Lin suddenly appeared in the manor and took the blow for her…
