An infinite journey starting from paradise

"And... and..."

The most terrifying scenes Aso Kasumi had ever seen kept emerging in her mind. She had seen the female drug lord riding on the man she had beheaded, twisting her waist and drinking the blood gushing from his cavity; she had seen rows of naked boys' corpses hanging from the beams in the rich man's secret vault... These horrific memories made her, who was already extremely terrified, even more silent, as if she had once again returned to the horrific and dangerous situation she had experienced before.

At this moment, she heard Lin Shangren's gentle whisper: "Don't be afraid, you are safe now. There are no robbers who killed your parents, no adoptive mother who forced you to put your hands in boiling soapy water, and no one who wants to hurt you."

Along with soft and seductive words, Lin Shangren's index finger gently brushed across Aso Kasumi's slightly sweaty body, her forehead, nose tip, soft cherry lips and tender chest.

"You no longer need to be afraid, nor do you need to be anxious about an unknown fate. You no longer need to risk stealing property to make yourself feel at ease. Now you are extremely safe, and you don't need to worry about anything else..."

Soothing Aso Kasumi's frayed nerves, Lin Shangren lowered his head and gently kissed her delicate body. Her red lips were growing hot, and so was her body. Lin Shangren's tongue licked the hot, delicate skin, and he could clearly feel Aso Kasumi gradually letting down her guard. So Lin Shangren continued to stimulate her, sliding his tongue over her breast mound, flexibly circling the cherry-red hard nub, licking it until it stood up.

"Woo..."

Aso Kasumi's back straightened, her breathing becoming heavier. She suppressed a moan, purring like a kitten. Her consciousness gradually faded, fear gradually giving way to confusion, and finally confusion turned into a sense of security and an instinctive desire. But her remaining rationality still resisted.

"No...let me go, don't touch me!"

Aso Kasumi closed her eyes and shook her head randomly, tears welling up in the corners of her eyes, her tightly closed legs rubbing against each other, her body suddenly stiffened, her moans turned into short, rapid hums, occasionally with one or two sharp tremolos - Lin Shangren's hand had already roamed over her lower abdomen and penetrated into the most secret and precious place between her legs.

"Don't resist. Just accept me and you'll be able to realize all your wishes. You won't feel fear anymore. You'll have the power to protect yourself, and you can live in peace.

You're longing for this, aren't you?"

Lin Shangren traced the arc of the bulge between Aso Kasumi's buttocks with his fingers: "It's like the mouth of a carp just out of water, wet and sucking non-stop."

"Woo!"

Just one step left.

The ambiguous and charming atmosphere in the air was almost solid, waiting for Lin Shangren to break through Aso Kasumi's last defense.

"Why would I do this? Shouldn't I have extracted information about the Monument Guardians from her and investigated the notebook? Why would I indiscriminately press this sexy and beautiful woman down on me, preparing to collect her first blood?"

Lin Shangren sensed something was amiss, but immediately threw the doubt out of his mind.

Why should you care about this?

Look, before you lies a beautiful female body, waiting for your favor. Seize her, conquer her, make her fascinated and lost in you. Make her yours alone, yours alone, a plaything devoted to you.

Go ahead and do it.

As long as you want it, you can do it.

Why not do it? You have the ability to do it.

Possess everything, dominate everything, and make everything submit to you.

You can do it, can't you?

Countless pieces of information flashed through Lin Shangren's mind, like Mephisto's temptation to Faust.

However, Lin Shangren turned a deaf ear to it.

At this moment, Lin Shangren really didn't care about morality and other norms. The problem was that he didn't care too much, so that at this moment, all he could see in his eyes was Aso Kasumi's delicate body and his surging desire.

"Don't be afraid, it won't hurt."

Lin Shangren hugged Aso Kasumi's body, and Aso Kasumi also hugged Lin Shangren.

"Hey!"

Aso Kasumi's body trembled violently, and then she bit Lin Shangren's shoulder. She said in a trembling voice: "You lied... This... hurts..."

"I'll be more gentle."

Lin Shangren hugged Aso Kasumi's beautiful body, penetrated deeply and powerfully, savoring everything about her: her strong and slender figure, flat belly, delicate skin, breasts, beautiful peach buds and anus... His inner shadow also turned into tentacles and reached into Aso Kasumi's conscious world, constantly pumping and inserting her past memories.

Possess her body, her consciousness, her future life and destiny, and tyrannically rob her of everything until she is completely lost.

……

The next day.

Thick curtains blocked the morning sunlight, casting a hazy gloom over the room. Aso Kasumi lay sprawled on the bed, a mixture of saliva and white, turbid fluid lingering at the corners of her mouth. Her breathing was steady, and her breasts jiggled slightly as her chest rose and fell. She looked like she was sleeping peacefully.

Lin Shangren sat beside her and used the bandage that had completely lost its magic to help Aso Kasumi wipe off the residue on her lower abdomen and belly button.

After coming into contact with the pure energy contained in Lin Shangren's Mi Qing Liquid, the bandage began to move again, but it seemed to have lost something and no longer had the same spirituality as before.

Lin Shangren knew that the missing item within the bandages had sparked his desire the previous night—the bandages had once been enchanted with a magic, like the One Ring or the magic mirror from Harry Potter, capable of evoking the user's deepest desires. It was this magic that had spawned Kasumi Aso's almost pathological desire to steal, driving her to continue taking risks even after she had already settled down.

Lin Shangren was able to release his desires thanks to it. However, Lin Shangren did not blame the bandage for his "violent actions" against Aso Kasumi last night. After all, he possessed the [Sage's Calmness], which, after defeating the snake spirit, made him immune to all mind control abilities.

After releasing the first ball of his own semen into Aso Kasumi's body, Lin Shangren was free from its influence. The subsequent releases he made into Aso Kasumi's mouth, anus, stomach, armpits, thighs... were all out of his personal will.

So, when she wakes up, what are you going to do with her?

"I took her home and raised her." Lin Shangren replied, "Like Wilma said, being my sex slave is probably the best job in the world. You only need to give me your body and loyalty, and you can get almost everything you want."

Lin Shangren raised his hand and took out the old-fashioned kraft paper notebook from Aso Kasumi's sheepskin bag.

"I'm still very curious about what that magic is that was powerful enough to affect me when I was defenseless. Are there other similar things in this world, and what forces control them?"

Lin Shangren opened his notebook.

"Huh? Weird."

Just as Asoka had explained, the notebook contained more than one unprecedented script. Lin Shangren donned the Bruce Hearn Mask and carefully flipped through the pages.

"Oh? That's it."

This notebook is more of a diary for Michael Heinz than a notebook. It records his early years as a painter and his experiences with a few like-minded friends in forming the Monuments Men to fight the Nazis during World War II. Strangely, Michael Heinz would often suddenly change the language he used while writing. He would sometimes start a sentence in German, then in Latin, and then end it in an unknown, seemingly invented language.

Judging from what he wrote, it was clearly not intended to hide any information, nor was it a deliberate code. It was just… a bit like the weather in this world, unpredictable yet self-contained.

As he continued reading, Lin Shangren found that Michael Heinz's account became more and more bizarre, especially after he met Kuloye.

According to the notes, Michael Heinz and von Claude Clement (Kuroba Chikage's grandfather) rescued the unconscious Kroye while exploring a monastery that had been looted by Nazi soldiers.

"He was probably sixteen or seventeen, or maybe twenty-five or twenty-six. I still can't quite tell the ages of Asian people, and Kroye himself couldn't remember his actual age either. He had amnesia. He only remembered his name was Kroye, and that he seemed to be lost somewhere and wanted to go home, but couldn't find the way back.

Clement speculated that Kroye might be connected to a Japanese businessman or even the Japanese ambassador. He spoke Japanese, and although his German was shaky, he could communicate well. The robes he wore were also high-quality. Perhaps we should send him to a location near the embassy…"

However, Michael Heinz didn't send Kroye away as planned. They were attacked by a German squad. Although they barely escaped, one of their members was seriously injured. Worse still, the injured man was their only doctor. Fortunately, the young man named Kroye, skilled in medicine, managed to save the team's doctor. He also deeply disliked the Nazis and joined the Monuments Men.

"Kroye's a good guy, but I suspect the bombardment of St. John's Cathedral damaged his brain. The poor guy is showing symptoms of alienation syndrome, occasionally losing track of time and season, and even misremembering the names and genders of his squad members.

If there's a chance, we should take him to Austria to see old Sigmund, who might be able to cure Kroyer."

What followed was still the normal actions and adventures of the monument guards until they accidentally discovered a relic of unknown age.

"I must be crazy! How could there be a pyramid under Klovy Vary?! Hahaha, what a discovery! We must have found an ancient dynasty lost in the cracks of history!"

The contents of the notebook then became filled with a lot of misunderstandings. Heinz's writings were obscured, and only a few sentences could be vaguely seen: "Incredible ■■ Magic ■■ Cleopatra ■■■.

Kroye said that ■■ appeared out of thin air, but we have always been together. Even when he was in a coma, it was ■A who took care of him. ■■■

We need to leave quickly, everyone is affected.

The rest of the film is missing content until the notebook's timeline reaches 1944, when the Ancient Guardians meet their two most important members: the magician Maskelyne and the goddess thief Chiyoko Mine (Kuroba Chikage's grandmother). They also receive help from the Phantom Thief Arsene Lupin (the Phantom Thief who once defeated Sherlock Holmes and is Lupin III's grandfather).

With their help, the Monuments Men continue to reclaim historical artifacts seized by the Nazis. Michael Heinz also learns from Maskelyne about the existence of white magic, red magic, and black magic. Under Maskelyne's guidance, he begins studying an ancient magic book they found in a ruin.

"Amazing power! It's hard to imagine that an ancient civilization that possessed such power could have perished...

(Large sections missing)

Clement gave Chiyoko the bandage he had obtained, transforming her into the mummy-like Phantom Thief Lady. But I always felt something was amiss with that bandage. It was as strange as the tomb of the queen of the same name, Cleopatra, from which it came—a sea of ​​emeralds.

As time went on, the notes became more grimy, and the writing became increasingly bizarre, until it was so disorganized that even Bruce Hearn's mask couldn't decipher or learn it. It was as if Michael Heinz's SAN was gradually reaching zero.

After flipping through dozens of unrecognizable pages, Lin Shangren finally came across a clear sentence in Latin: "Kroye is right. This world is constantly being destroyed. Their history isn't fading, it's being destroyed. Why is Kroye the only one who noticed it first? I must be crazy! Pandora... maybe it's because of Pandora... but it still doesn't make sense... Knowing the truth is meaningless. We can't perceive it. They don't understand that immortality is meaningless, or maybe we've already achieved it."

No, they are coming again, I have to escape, I hope my body can hold on.

Humanity doesn't need the truth... I really wish I had never gotten involved. Tears, pupils, love, and what Chloe said about the Kasumi that I had long forgotten... My daughters, I hope we can meet again..."

Chapter 306: Lin Shangren Exclusive

"???"

The sudden surge in information made Lin Shangren a little confused, but he quickly adjusted himself.

Looking at the garbled text, Lin Shangren pulled out the unused causal item, the Double Eagle Coin, from his system backpack. Once the coin's gambling effect was activated, it could directly distort and modify reality, ignoring causality. Since receiving it, Lin Shangren hadn't used it. After all, he hadn't encountered any trouble beyond his personal capabilities.

"This thing should be able to decipher this part that I can't understand, right?"

Thinking of this, Lin Shangren looked at the item description of [Double Eagle Coin].

[Additional Ability "Ocean Gambling" Description: The user can activate this ability when holding a Double Eagle coin.

After the ability is activated, when the user says "I bet you a dollar that there is no XX in your ■■", the ■■ held by the enemy will lose XX in it regardless of any law of causality.

The skill cooldown period is one standard Earth day. 】

"The only conditions are that the enemy accepts the bet, and the only items that can be modified are those in their possession. The ultimate effect is to cause the item to lose something.

The first two are easy to solve: wake up Kasumi Aso, let her hold the notebook, and turn her into the enemy - the two parties in rock-paper-scissors can also be considered as enemies.

It's important to note the subsequent description of the bet. If you simply say, "I bet there's nothing in your notebook I can't understand," then the incomprehensible content should simply disappear, becoming blank. Therefore, the "nothing" shouldn't refer to the actual contents of the notebook, but rather something more conceptual, like "no encryption" or "no dyslexia."

Humph... The coin's ability can only be used once a day. Should I just use the notebook or try something else? I'll go with the safe side. After all, the last thing I lack is time."

Having made the decision, Lin Shangren turned to look at Aso Kasumi who was still sleeping soundly. Looking at her heaving chest and belly, he couldn't help but poke her twice with his fingers.

"Let's use this experiment."

Lin Shangren injected spiritual energy into the magic ring that could engrave obscene patterns, and then used Morse code to write a secret message on the snow-white cloth above Aso Kasumi's pubic mound, and then carved a uterus-shaped border composed of hearts and bat wings around the secret message.

"Okay, done."

Lin Shangren touched Aso Kasumi's smooth belly and woke her up from her sleep with his eagle fingers.

"ah."

Aso Kasumi kicked her bare feet suddenly and then woke up and opened her eyes.

When she saw the man who had forcibly taken possession of her body looking at her with ill intentions, Aso Kasumi instinctively curled up her body and looked at Lin Shangren in fear.

"You...don't come over here..."

Lin Shangren tried his best to give Aso Kasumi a gentle smile. He could feel obvious fear and hostility from this panicked beauty.

"I'll make a bet with you. If you win, I'll let you go. I'll also give you this cash and the pile of artworks you stole before. How about it, do you want to bet?" Lin Shangren said.

"bet…?"

Aso Kasumi looked around, and after seeing the artworks she had hidden in another safe house, she knew that she really had no way out.

She mustered up the courage to ask, "What are you betting on? It's not about souls, is it? Are you a demon like Mephisto?"

"How could that be? Don't worry, we're not betting our lives or our souls. We're betting your freedom and a dollar. If I win, you're mine. If I lose, you're free and you get a dollar."

As he spoke, Lin Shangren showed Aso Kasumi the [Double Eagle Coin] he was holding between his fingers, and then said, "I'm not interested in a dollar. The ciphertext on your lower abdomen is not encrypted."

"Huh? What's that on my belly?"

Aso Kasumi lowered her head in confusion and found that a strange tattoo had appeared on her lower abdomen. In the middle of the tattoo was a line of Morse code consisting of "?" and "-".

"When was this painted on?!"

Before Aso Kasumi finished her words, the Morse code on her lower abdomen suddenly began to change, from the original cipher text to five Chinese characters: "For exclusive use by Lin Shangren".

At the same time as these five words appeared, the Li Cong Yin pattern was completely completed and began to exert its effect.

Aso Kasumi only felt an electric current flowing from her abdomen through her limbs and bones. Her muscles suddenly became soft and she had difficulty mustering strength. Then she felt an itchy and numb feeling like an ant bite.

"It seems you lost." Lin Shangren reached out and stroked Aso Kasumi's smooth abdomen.

"Yeah!"

And the moment Lin Shangren touched her skin, Aso Kasumi suddenly screamed, her body tensed like a crescent moon, her two white legs stretched straight apart, her toes curled up, and she trembled as if she had cramps.

"So sensitive?" Lin Shangren's hand slid down, covering her pubic mound, which was as bulging as a steamed bun fresh out of the steamer. His fingers gently hooked it.

“Don’t… don’t put it in… ah!!!”

Aso Kasumi kept shaking her long hair, saliva dripping from the corners of her mouth, her hazy eyes seemed to be struggling to survive, and her trembling throat kept twitching. After Lin Shangren inserted two fingers, she suddenly raised her head and choked, her eyes widened, and she opened her mouth but no sound came out. She arched her waist and raised her hips, her snow-white buttocks trembling violently, and a puff of transparent liquid like a slurry spurted out from between her legs, flowing all over her body.

"It's a mess, Kasumi."

Lin Shangren bit the tip of his tongue and kissed Aso Kasumi's red lips.

Feeling her sweet tongue being roughly stirred and sucked, and drinking Lin Shangren's sweet blood, Aso Kasumi, dazed by the shock, regained consciousness. However, by this point, she had completely lost the thought of resisting. The bad news was that she had been captured by a demon. The good news was that the demon didn't want to hurt her, but only wanted to toy with her, and being toyed with felt quite good.

Aso Kasumi closed her eyes and began to cooperate with Lin Shangren's kiss. Just when she was ready to welcome Lin Shangren's visit again, he suddenly stopped.

"Have you recovered enough? Then put on your clothes and follow me. I have prepared a new life, a new job, and a reason for survival for you."
