Chapter 1: Memory Fusion

  "Dizzy, didn't I die? How could I be rescued again? Impossible, to protect Professor Cheng Wen, I threw my entire body onto the bomb...” The first thing Special Forces soldier Lin Lei remembered when he woke up was the events that had just transpired. Suddenly, he felt something constricting his neck and his entire body was suspended in mid-air, with his tongue still sticking out. No wonder he couldn't speak earlier. Fear interrupted his thoughts."

  As a special soldier, Lin Lei quickly understood the current danger, with a rope around his neck, his whole body suspended in mid-air, his tongue sticking out, of course it was a scene of hanging oneself to death. His hands quickly grabbed the ropes on both sides and his head stretched outwards, making a sudden jump, easily escaping the danger.

  He fell to the ground safely, but before Lin Lei could catch his breath, he suddenly felt an intense headache, covering his head and shaking it hard, his consciousness slowly becoming dizzy, struggling, unaware of what he had bumped into in the chaos, finally feeling a surge of weakness as he crashed to the ground, and then everything went black, fainting away, remaining in a coma.

  Lin Lei inexplicably fainted due to a headache, and when he came to again, he found that he had merged with the deceased's memory images. He discovered that his identity was actually that of an imperial soldier in the Kastel Empire, which was the only empire with a lifelong occupation system.

  The so-called permanent title of a small soldier, that is to say, as long as the Kastel Empire exists, no matter how great your achievements and merits are, your identity will forever remain at the rank of a small soldier, without any official position or status, and even his descendants will be forever stuck in the position of a small soldier, cannon fodder material.

  Just like in the movie "King of Comedy" where Stephen Chow played So Chan, no matter how great your achievements are, your identity will forever be fixed as a beggar, even if you're the leader of the beggars, isn't that still a beggar?

  The two above, Su Qi'er and Lei Er, if they want to change their situation, unless the dynasty changes, otherwise their descendants will forever live in the shadow of beggars or small soldiers.

  Raine's death was like this, he couldn't bear the title of lifelong imperial soldier, depressed every day, and died by suicide at the age of 18, and the title of lifelong imperial soldier only lasted for seven days.

  "Am I doomed to be a low-ranking soldier in the Empire's lifelong occupation system? Is my future really set in stone here? No! For the rebirth of a new world, for the hardships of crossing over, for myself, and for my descendants. Haha, Lin Lei is reborn, Rayn Green revives, I've arrived in this new world, ah......" Lin Lei excitedly stretched out his hands, clenched his fists, closed his eyes, and shouted loudly, then let out a long sigh of relief.

  You don't have to worry about being reported by 'kind-hearted' neighbors, nor do you have to worry about scaring away passing pedestrians or children, because within a radius of ten miles, it's all desolate, with the only existing thing being an abandoned castle, the property of the Green family, and also the Empire's 'gift' to the only descendant of the Green family, Rain Green.

  The valuable items in the castle had been looted clean by the emperor's troops, and what was left had all been sold off by Renn Green. He was accustomed to a life of luxury and revelry, unable to extricate himself from it. The meager salary of a small soldier could not satisfy his extravagance. When he had squandered all the money from selling off everything and still hadn't received his salary, he chose to take his own life. Death might have been the best destination for him, and this was also his helpless choice.

  He had just been reborn and after a long period of coma, as well as intense mental activity, Lin Lei finally couldn't bear the strong feeling of hunger, forcing him to frantically search every room in the castle, rummaging through boxes and cabinets, looking for money or food.

  "Dizzy, the castle gates are all sold out, ah, it seems that there is no need to make another move." When Lin Lei arrived at the castle with nothing, seeing everything here, he sighed, as if like a deflated balloon, unable to muster up any more spirit.

  "Rayne Green, your body is too weak, you don't have the ability to handle so many women. As an excellent special forces soldier, even if I go hungry for ten days or half a month, I won't be in this state, it's infuriating! Am I going to starve to death here?!" Lin Lei leaned against the wall, bent over, his hands still tightly clutching his stomach, scolding and cursing nonstop. However, his complaints only echoed through the empty castle for a long time, buzzing and stimulating his eardrums, almost making him dizzy.

  Lin Lei's endless complaints were of no use, and now his body was extremely weak, putting him in a very dangerous situation once again.

  The special forces training made his body strong, but now he is powerless, with a thin and weak physique, being blown by the wind will make him sway back and forth. Moreover, in the past few days, he (his original master Rain Green) indulged in excessive lust, his legs were like lead, and he couldn't even stand still. Adding to that, just now, in order to find food and money, his body became even weaker, almost fainting again.

  "Concentrate, gather energy, energy flows to the dantian..." Suddenly Lin Lei seemed to have thought of something, leaning against the thick city wall, barely maintaining his balance, sitting cross-legged on the ground, with both hands placed on his knees, cultivating his original special forces heart method, silently reciting the incantation, in a state of deep contemplation.

  Whether the current physical condition can be improved by relying on this heart method, he doesn't know either. He can only do so and there is no other way out. After all, he cannot just sit and wait for death.

  After a long time, his body finally slowly recovered, only slightly improved, without any rapid progress (special forces' skills), at least he had spirit, his legs were no longer soft, he could walk, and didn't shake much.

  Gazing at the abandoned castle, Lin Lei suddenly had a good idea and couldn't help but feel secretly delighted, with a smile on his face and a sly grin, was he planning to take over the castle?

  It's just as I thought.

  "Haha, Ryan Green, you haven't completely squandered your fortune yet. I'm the current Ryan Green, and I'll take the wasteful activities to the end. I want to fulfill your last wish, which is... I want to be rich, I want to have many beautiful women, I want to..." Lin Lei burst out laughing, holding his stomach in laughter, rolling around on the ground, tears streaming down his face from laughing so hard...

  He almost choked with laughter, and once again turned around from the Ghost Gate, he remained silent, still excited and thrilled in his heart.

  After much deliberation, Lin Lei left the abandoned castle, which had witnessed the rise and fall of the Green family's glory. Little did he know that its new owner was about to sell it off?

  Lin Lei was running wildly in the desolate and uninhabited area, even unaware that his worn-out boots had fallen off, and he continued to run barefoot, shouting "ahhh" in his mouth, whether it was excitement or...

  In the prosperous streets of Lost City, the capital of the Kastor Empire, a rumor spread that a madman appeared, wearing a blue small soldier uniform, barefoot, covered in bloodstains all over his body, with a seemingly broken head, a face full of scars, and red marks on his neck, occasionally looking around restlessly, as if searching for something.

  One spread to ten, ten to a hundred, and everyone rushed to watch, making the already crowded streets even more congested and difficult to navigate. The Imperial Guard deployed a large number of personnel to maintain traffic order, strengthen vigilance, and search for the madman's trail.

  When the Imperial Guards, clad in armor and holding weapons, arrived before Lin Rui, two soldiers placed their long swords at his neck, only then did Lin Rui understand what it meant to be on the verge of tears, what despair was, what...

  "Rayne Green, it's you again, you coward. Can't you come up with a new trick?" One of the soldiers grabbed his hair, and due to the impact on the wall, the newly formed scab was torn off again, and fresh blood gushed out, covering his face. Although he was in great pain, gritting his teeth, he remained silent. At this moment, he was exceptionally clear-headed, maintaining the dignity of a special forces operative, even the blood flowing from his face seemed too much trouble to wipe away (not that he was lazy, but simply because his hands were restrained).

  "Haha, this kid has grown gutsy, he's a completely different person now, very spirited! If you can crawl over from my **, I'll spare your life today! You usually do it like this, hurry up!" The soldiers put down their long swords, and one of them struck a pose, intimidating him.

  On the bustling streets, passersby continued to hurry along, with only a few stopping for a moment, and some idle shop assistants occasionally gazing out, as if this phenomenon had become all too familiar.

  "No!" He finally shouted loudly in protest, although it was just a simple interjection, at this moment, he really did it.

  No matter how the two soldiers beside him went crazy with their hands and feet, he still maintained a shaky standing posture. Now he was really a different person, calm in expression, his eyes filled with anger, and his fists were still tightly clenched, as if ready to counterattack at any time.

  The gaze of passersby was drawn over by a burst of angry shouting, their faces filled with shock as they stared at the enraged Rain Green, a fallen noble, a lifelong imperial soldier, a madman, and a coward, who dared to defy the Imperial Guard, which held the power of life and death. Had he really gone mad?

  "Hey!" The two soldiers beside him exchanged a smile and slowly raised the long swords in their hands, gleaming with cold light...
