Time Traveler Help Hotline

One of the defining characteristics of the mortal realm is that everyone there is a genius.

To give an analogy, the extraordinary talent is like a gacha pool, where the probability of each person drawing an SSR is different.

The selection range for ordinary people in the other world is 0.01%, for those from families with a lineage it is 1%, while for the natives of the mortal world it is 90%.

As long as they leave the mortal realm and receive a little stimulation, they can basically awaken into extraordinary individuals with exceptional talent and quickly advance to level three in a short period of time.

The fourth tier is a hurdle; once you break through it, you'll enter another period of rapid upgrades.

This is why Ji Mo wasn't surprised when Chen Zhuzhu immediately leveled up after observing the Divine Mirror.

Only here do you dare to call me a mortal.

If you see me elsewhere, what should you call me?

Originally, Xiaoyan's parents planned to take their child to a world outside the mortal realm for a period of time, and stop once the child awakened to the extraordinary.

Upon discovering that his child was protected by the mortal realm and possessed even greater talent than he had back then, growing to such strength in just one year, he immediately lost control of his desire to train him.

My son has the potential to be an emperor; how can he waste his time like this?

Practice, practice like crazy!

Train until you drop dead!

The two applied their idea that the best way to make progress was through fierce fighting back then to Xiao Yan.

After hearing the whole story, Ji Mo's first thought was of Jiu Chong Lou.

Could Xiao Jiu have been living a similar life back then? Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain her terrifying skill set for her age group.

The police couldn't help Xiaoyan, and neither could Ji Mo.

Because Yan's parents were clearly controlling the intensity of the training, ensuring it was at a level where they were pushing themselves to the limit but wouldn't actually kill them.

If the law for extraordinary individuals even covers this, then 99% of families with extraordinary individuals will have to resort to written exams to educate their children in order to ensure the safety of their education.

Think about it, they're just letting their children fight wild beasts to toughen them up.

It's not like raising a venomous insect to reproduce and clone multiple times, requiring the blood relatives to fight each other to the last person, nor is it like feeding the body with rare and precious herbs, waiting for a certain level to be reached before taking over this young body.

From this perspective, the family seems to be quite harmonious.

Having figured all this out, Ji Mo's eyes were instantly filled with pity.

He gently pushed Xiaoyan in front of him, leaving behind a word of encouragement before departing: "Good luck winning the championship in the next Junior Extraordinary Cup."

"Wait! Uncle! Don't go!"

Xiao Yan watched helplessly as Ji Mo stepped through the teleportation portal and disappeared, while the corner of the portal that she had lunged to grab was empty.

He burst into tears again.

"At least take me back to the Mortal Realm this time! This is false advertising, I'm going to report you!"

The crying drowned out the slow approaching footsteps behind her. When a terrifying shadow fell overhead, blocking out the sunlight, Xiao Yan realized that she seemed to have forgotten about something.

Before he could even try to argue, vines appeared out of nowhere, completely covering his body and mouth, leaving him only able to roll on the ground.

Meanwhile, my respected mother was making a phone call while hitting someone.

"Hey, honey, are you busy right now? If not, come over for a little training session. I'm worried I might lose control of my strength later. Come back and prepare a healing spell, just in case."

……

The second person seeking help was a young man with a clear mind.

He identified himself as Zhang Jun and seemed to be in a relatively safe situation, so he talked on and on about his own affairs, setting a record for the most talkative person seeking help.

When Zhang Jun woke up, he found himself sold to a slave mine. With his excellent eloquence and keen sense of situation, he managed to get in touch with the merchant in charge of ore sales and transformed himself from a miner who had never seen the light of day into a salesman.

He described his career advancement at length, claiming that he became the best salesman in the eyes of ore merchants, and that he could sell by-products that were considered waste at high prices.

"I'm not bragging, but wait... wait, help—"

The final plea for help suddenly rose in pitch, sounding so sincere that it seemed as if the person was in grave danger.

Communication was unilaterally cut off.

Realizing that the person seeking help might have been discovered during the call and was in danger, Ji Mo was dispatched again.

The landing site was a high-end office, with valuable oil paintings hanging on the wall and a man and a woman lying on a leather sofa.

The woman is on top of the man, who appears to be an assassin, with a short knife embedded in the sofa next to the man's head.

"Why did the call suddenly drop? Is it because you can't feel the danger anymore?" the woman said slowly, while making a move to draw her knife. "Don't rush, let me help you get back into the swing of things and unleash your potential."

With a knife pointed at him, Zhang Jun raised his hand slightly, surrendering helplessly: "Wait! I hanged myself! You could at least have waited until you were sure rescue wasn't coming before putting on this show—"

Ji Mo, standing quietly to the side, remained silent.

Did he come to the wrong set again? Or is he also part of their game?

"They're here! Get downstairs right now!"

The woman reluctantly climbed down, staring at Zhang Jun as if afraid he would run away.

If Zhang Jun's earlier statement is true, and considering the girl eyeing him so intently, Ji Mo thinks he's already a winner in life here, and it's unlikely he'll actually go back. At most, he'll ask the show to let them know he's safe.

Even so, he still had to ask the routine question: "How much do you know about the rules of the show?"

"Each person is only allowed one call to the hotline, and repatriation assistance is provided free of charge, is that correct?"

"Okay. Now that you understand, I won't waste any more words. Do you want to come with me now?"

A flicker of something in Chen Jun's eyes. "Can I take her with me?"

"Does she have official status? I mean, the status of a free person officially recognized by the world."

Chen Jun: "..."

Ji Mo roughly understood, and sighed, "If she was sold into this place like you, she's a slave. You can buy her first, then return her to her free status, and she can leave with you."

Before Chen Jun could even feel overjoyed, Ji Mo ruthlessly poured cold water on his hopes, "...Under normal circumstances, the only visa she can obtain is a tourist visa, which allows her to stay in the mortal realm for a maximum of one month. Once the visa expires, she will be deported."

"You'd better not even think about smuggling her across the border. If you're caught, you don't want to know what will happen."

In every world, there are people who think the moon is rounder on the other side.

Moreover, the situation in the mortal realm is extremely friendly to ordinary people, and the majority of the world's population will always be ordinary people. Therefore, in the eyes of ordinary people in other worlds, the mortal realm is a real-life Shangri-La.

The problem is that for ordinary outsiders, let alone obtaining citizenship, even obtaining temporary residency is extremely difficult.

If there were a way to cross the void and precisely smuggle oneself into the mortal realm, then one would no longer be considered an ordinary person.

Many ordinary people from outside the world obtain citizenship by attaching themselves to people from the mortal realm who live outside the world.

Originally, the authorities turned a blind eye to such situations, but after some cases that proved human diversity occurred, they began to crack down hard.
