1923.

Miskanitok University, girls' dormitory.

It was summer vacation and the dormitory seemed extremely deserted. But some people still lived in the dormitory, some were students who were unwilling to go home, and female visitors who took advantage of the vacant dormitory to pay for the temporary accommodation.

Arkham has a "female apartment", but it will be full every time this time - Miskatonik University is one of the first universities to open co-educational colleges in Quanmi, and one of the first colleges to start raising female graduate and doctoral students. Many women seeking higher education will come to this beautiful campus for practical inspection. The dormitory administrator saw business opportunities from it, allowing students who have not yet officially entered the school and their parents to move into the school dormitory at a low price.

From time to time, bored students would run to the streets and buy alcoholic beverages at high prices in underground bars. The "prohibition" made the public sale of alcoholic beverages a legal prohibition. However, people's love for alcohol has increased.

Regular restaurants that cannot serve alcohol have gone bankrupt, underground taverns are booming, poor people use alcohol to relieve their sorrows, and members of the upper class think they are not within the limit. Clubs and salons secretly engage in high-end alcohol business, and even doctors are willing to trade medical recipes for profits.

In contrast, the girls' dormitory is a little calmer. It is already late at night, and the sound of reading is still ringing in the public lounge. Compared with the scorching sun, a cool night is a good time to read.

"'This is the best time, this is the worst time, this is the wisdom time, this is the stupid time, this is the faith time, this is the doubt time, this is the bright time, this is the dark time, this is the spring of hope, this is the winter of disappointment; there are all kinds of things before people, there is nothing before people; there are straight to heaven; and there are people going to hell..." A girl with braids held her glasses, "Who do you know, which writer's work is this?"

A blonde girl sitting opposite her hands raised.

"It's not a classroom, Lily," said the glasses kindly, "but you can answer."

"It's Dickens, The Twin Cities." The blonde girl Lily replied.

"The answer is correct," the glasses nodded with a smile, "The School of Languages ​​and Literature welcomes you at any time, Lily."

"I won't welcome me," another girl complained. "I'm going to be admitted next month, and Lily will wait until next year."

It was already midnight, and there were only three people left in the lounge.

"It's almost time to rest." said the girl in the eyes.

"I want to talk about Dickens more," Lily said regretfully.

"'This is the best time, this is the worst time,'" said the glasses girl. "Do you agree with this statement, Lily?"

"Come on. Dickens passed away fifty years ago, and he was describing the story of fifty years before he was born in imagination." The girl who was about to enter school yawned.

The other two girls frowned.

"If Dickens had lived to see the European war, he would have known how the golden age of opportunities in the 18th and 19th centuries were experiencing, and what dangers and boring situations we need to face now." Leaving this sentence, the girl who was about to enter school left the lounge.

The girl with glasses forced a smile: "That's how she is."

“My father often said that people always think that an era in the past was a golden age, but only the present is our era, and history is always beautified by memories,” Lily said. “He said that the times are always improving—so I really want to see what the world will look like a hundred years later.”

She looked to the window. In the distance of the town, colorful aurora lights lit up in the night.

"Will there be aurora of Arkham?" Lily asked in confusion.

"I heard from my seniors that it was a strange weather phenomenon," said the girl with glasses. "Maybe we should report it to the professors."

...

Outside the suburb.

The aurora stops.

Helena felt lucky: she knew very well how dangerous this sudden physical body and space shuttle was. It was normal to lack arms and legs, and it was easy to fall into the cracks in the space, or get stuck in the wall or even the land.

"Are everyone okay?" Chen Qiang's voice came.

[Chen Qiang Physical Test 49/50 was successful]

The experience of traveling through time was dizzy, and his stomach was turbulent, but he could barely endure it.

Everyone agreed. Except for Helena, who had long been used to time travel, several people seemed to be as painful as Chen Qiang.

"It seems that this time-space transfer is safer than we thought," Helena breathed a sigh of relief to confirm that everyone was safe and sound, "The whole land was traveling with us."

Behind everyone, the abandoned factory in the 21st century that was transformed into a temporary base stood there intact. For safety and confidentiality, the factory did not connect wires from the outside, but used an internal generator, and even the lights did not go out.

"No, the question is, have we really traveled through time?" Mao Mei wanted to protect Chen Qiang handsomely, but her dizzy travel experience made her be able to lean against the wall and mutter.

[Chen Qiang's investigation and inspection were successful 70/72]

"At least you can look at the lights of Arkham," Chen Qiang said, forcing him to stand up, "It is obviously not the 'Arkham' we came to."

[Qin Lingxue's physical fitness test was successful on 7/55]

[Qin Lingxue's detection and inspection was successful on 27/44]

"There is still a road," Qin Lingxue showed a complicated expression. This was not the first time she had crossed. "The concrete road turned into a dirt road."

[Qin Yixian's physical fitness test was successful on 13/70]

"Leave one person to look at the wind, and everyone else goes in," said Qin Yixian, "We cannot confirm what era it is now. Also, turn off the lights... If this is really Arkham Town a hundred years ago, we should try not to attract attention."

The "Green Delta" has arranged double-digit staff in the factory, but there are obviously not so many people in the house at this moment.

...

Chen Qiang and his friends didn't know that compared to him who had completed the time travel with the earth beneath his feet, the fate of other time travelers was much more miserable.

When they came to their senses, Pickerman and Mr. Shani found themselves in mid-air - the building of the Orthopedic Clinic was not traveling with them.

The next second.

Two mythical creatures bound by gravity fell straight down from three floors high.

“fk”

“teke————li-li?!?!”

【Pickman Jump Check Failed 9/60】

【Mr. Shani failed to jump check 7/55】

The two managed to remove the impact with rolling and rolling, but the ending was that they fell directly to the ground in a messy posture.

【Pickman Physical Test 92/95 Success】

The unlucky Pickerman felt that he was almost thrown out of the prototype, and when Shani landed, he turned into a sticky colloid, and then slowly cut back to the human posture.
