"Good afternoon, everyone. I'm your tour guide. Just call me Afu."

Lu Ren greeted enthusiastically the two women who had been waiting here.

"Are you our next tour guide?" One of the white-haired women looked Lu Ren up and down with a playful expression.

"The boss was really angry just now and even gave us some coupons."

Lu Ren couldn't help but feel ashamed after hearing this, but he didn't want to be late. It was just that it was already very late when he woke up from the hospital.

"Well, it turns out that you can't eat random things." Lu Ren sighed.

The system said, "You should thank the boss for calming the emotions of these two guests, otherwise you would have received complaints by now."

Lu Ren looked around but did not see the boss standing in front of the counter in the hall.

"Are you afraid that I will return the extra money? Boss, you really put a lot of effort into this." Lu Ren thought to himself.

"My name is Lina, and this is Vita. Now that we are here, let's go." The white-haired woman named Lina said with a smile.

"Vita?" Lu Ren glanced at the red-haired woman next to him. It shouldn't be that person, just a coincidence of the name.

"What are you looking at?" Lina patted Lu Ren's shoulder and asked curiously.

"Ah, nothing." Lu Ren shook his head, but the pat on his shoulder just now reminded him of what happened in the past.

"The dream is over, everything is over..."

"Why don't you hurry up?" Lina coughed a few times, "Then, Avalon, start!"

"Who is the tour guide here? All you said were my words." Lu Ren complained.

Lina stretched out a finger and waved it in front of Lu Ren, "No, no, no, I'm just trying to relieve your work pressure."

"Then thank you so much." Lu Ren said in a strange tone.

Vita on the side looked at the two of them, and there seemed to be a gleam in her eyes, but it soon dimmed.

"..."

"Avalon is another name for the paradise in Welsh mythology. It is also called the 'Blessed Island' or the 'Blessed Island'. For a long time, there have been different opinions on the location of the Island of Avalon, but now people believe that it is in Glastonbury in southwest England.

Likewise, a famous figure is buried here. He is Arthur Pendragon, the most legendary and great king of ancient Britain, known as the 'Eternal King'. He left behind many deeds..."

When he said this, Lu Ren's mouth was already dry.

His mouth has been moving constantly since he came to the island. He feels that if he does this for a long time, his mouth will eventually be covered with thick calluses.

(Can calluses really form on the mouth?)

He took out the water he had brought with him and drank most of the bottle in one gulp.

Perhaps shocked by Lu Ren's bold drinking posture, Vita, who had been silent all along, finally spoke.

"Aren't you afraid of choking?"

"Ahem, is that the reason you asked this?"

Lu Ren wiped the water from his mouth. He was not choked at first, but Vita's words almost choked him.

"Oh, I'm sorry, Afu. Vita has experienced some things in the past that made her forget a lot of experience in dealing with people." Lina explained.

"It's okay. You must keep this outspoken quality. Otherwise, you won't be able to get it back once you lose it."

Lu Ren organized his thoughts and thought about where to take these two people for sightseeing next.

"Afu, Merlin never asked King Arthur whether he liked the scabbard or the sword body, right?" Lina suddenly asked from the side.

"Yes, King Arthur replied that he preferred the sword. Indeed, it is good to exercise more."

"Don't use Chinese puns, they won't understand." The system said.

"Uh, these two don't seem to mean the same thing, right?" Lina said.

“Wow, you understand Chinese.”

Lu Ren just said that in Chinese, but Lina understood it. Are the quality of tourists so high nowadays?

"I lived in Shenzhou for five years." Lina saw the surprise in Lu Ren's eyes, so she took the initiative to explain.

"What are you talking about?"

Maybe the previous conversation brought them closer together. Seeing the two people talking mysteriously, Vita couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Anyway, after Merlin heard what King Arthur said, he said, 'You must know that the value of the scabbard is ten times that of the sword. The one who wears the scabbard of Kingsword will never bleed, so you must protect the scabbard and carry it with you.'"

Lu Ren said this, but he was thinking about something else.

“Tongzi, logically speaking, King Arthur is a guy who awakened the stigmata because of Kevin’s Stigmata Project.

Although he later received help from Sue and believed Sue to be the Fairy of the Lake, the story did not mention anything about Merlin at all. How did the story of Merlin come about later? "

"Host, is there a possibility that you are the Whitebeard Merlin?"

The system's tone didn't sound like a joke, so Lu Ren froze.

"What, that old white-bearded Deng is my old self?"

"You were not an old man with a white beard at that time. It's just that you deliberately changed all the texts and paintings related to Merlin."

While Lu Ren was still immersed in the shock that the charlatan turned out to be himself, the system threw him a bigger surprise.

"You and Kevin worked together on the initial Stigmata Project, and you specifically selected King Arthur."

Lu Ren was speechless. The system, which used to take a long time to explain, gave him a strong dose of medicine this time and told him so many things from the past.

He suddenly felt that not knowing anything was also a kind of happiness, and it was difficult for him to understand his past behavior.

"I was thinking that since I have lived from the ancient civilization to the present day, but have left nothing in history, it turns out that I deliberately covered it up."

"Yes, so, host, if you want to find out the truth behind this, please work hard to collect all fourteen seals."

"So you told me a little bit about the past just because you wanted me to collect the seals quickly. Tongzi, you are so utilitarian."

"Thank you for the compliment." The system humbly accepted the praise from Lu Ren.

"Wow, what a wide lake, like a mirror that can reflect everything in the world. Ah Fu, what is it called?"

Lina's exclamation made Lu Ren realize that he was still acting as a tour guide, so he stopped talking to the shameless system.

"It's called Lake Avalon. Legend has it that King Arthur saw the Lady of the Lake (Sue) and got the sword of Kings here (actually, he didn't). After his death, he was brought back here and buried by the lake. The tombstone also has the epitaph 'Here lies Arthur, the Eternal King'."

Lu Ren told the story in a leisurely manner, and Lina, who was standing beside him, was fascinated by it.

After listening, Lina asked a question.

"King Arthur had so many achievements, why did he only carve such a short sentence?"

Lu Ren thought carefully for a while and then spoke.

"This is probably similar to the saying that someone's life is too long and their epitaph is too short. Their magnificent life does not need to be explained by a tombstone after death."

Lu Ren looked up at the sky. The blue sky was clean and beautiful. Who could have thought that the world would be turned upside down in a few years.
