Chapter 2: TIAN JIAN
Life on the planet Evershine was slowly advancing, and on that planet, humans advanced both technologically and scientifically. The human race dominated that planet.
The planet Evershine didn't have a sun, but it would shine every day and never get dark, and There was a reason for that. In the past, the heavenly sword destroyed a star, but that star core wasn't damaged but stuck to the edge of the sword, and the destructive element in that core was absorbed by the sword, leaving only the pure light source.
When the heavenly sword descended on this planet, the light core was merged with the planet core, and then a mutation had happened to the planet core. It changed the planet into a semi-star, which would be capable of sustaining life.
Because of that mutation, people born on the planet Evershine had a high level of intelligence compared to other planets.
On this planet, a person was born. He was twenty-five years old good-looking, brown-eyed, pitch-black-haired, and light pale-skinned young man. He was Six feet, well-built, kind-hearted, and honest young man, but was less friendly.
That person's name was TIAN JIAN.
Tian Jian's parents died in a car accident when he was three years old child, So He grew up in an orphanage. He was clever and handsome. He always wanted a decent family that he never had.
He was working in a company which was dealing with archaeology items, as an appraiser. He had a lot of knowledge about history and archaeology items.
Yesterday the company had received a batch of goods in a consignment, and the value of the consignment was very high, and it was almost equal to their company's yearly turnover.
Today, Tian Jian had to appraise the value of the consignment, but he didn't receive the consignment from the warehouse, so he went to the warehouse manager named Li Feng.
Warehouse manager Li Feng was an arrogant, lazy, and angry individual. He had some influence in the company, so he became an arrogant bully to low-level employees. Being lazy, he always tried to escape his work and would try to shift it to others.
When Tian Jian entered the Li Feng office, he closed his eyes, placed his legs on the desk, and leisurely sitting in a chair while snoring loudly. Maybe He was having a daydream. Whenever Tian Jian saw him, he wanted to slap him, but he would always control himself.
Hearing the sound of a door opening, Li Feng immediately came back from his dreamland and hurriedly adjusted himself. Tian Jian, with a hidden rage, Entered his cabin room.
"Oh, isn't the young and most talented appraiser of our company, Tian Jian? What brings you to my lousy cabin?" Li Feng also felt Tian Jian's anger, so he in reverse asked with contempt.
Tian Jian was furious with Li Feng's attitude, but even so, he politely asked, "Manager Li Feng, yesterday, did your warehouse department receive a consignment?"
"Yes, We did receive the consignment, so what about it?" Li Feng indifferently, as if he did nothing wrong.
"Then why didn't you send the consignment to my office?" Tian Jian demanded in an ice-cold tone.
"What! You didn't receive the consignment! B-But I ordered my subordinate to send it to you on an ASAP basis. _____I think he had forgotten about it, nowadays he was becoming lazier, so I have to remind him everything two to three times." Li Feng angrily blamed his subordinate.
Tian Jian was startled by Li Feng's shameless lie. Although He knew Li Feng was lying, he couldn't prove it. At the same time, he didn't want to blame Li Feng's subordinate as his nature wouldn't do so, so he tried to shift the issue.
"Oh!, Then leave that issue aside. Send the consignment now.... and also from where did you receive the consignment?"
When Tian Jian questioned where the consignment came from, Li Feng faced changed drastically. Because whenever he thinks about that place, he creeps all over.
Somewhere in the past, Li Feng went to that place to receive a consignment, but at that time, he nearly lost his only dear life.
That place was called the Lightning forest and was also known as the land of death. It would attract lightning bolts throughout the day, but even so, there was something magical about it. The growth of the plants in it was ten times faster than in other places.
The animals that live in the Lightning forest underwent some strange mutation. They were impervious to the lighting and were much more ferocious than other wild animals. Six out of ten people who went to that forest had died.
The lightning forest was also a treasure house. The plants, herbs, animal meat, some other minerals, and everything there was valuable.
Sometimes when lightning continuously hit a rock or something, it would change into a mineral that was hundreds of times more valuable than the diamond.
To Mine those items, humans invented a costly method. That was, they made equipment that attracts the lightings.
The equipment would be fixed in a circle around the area where they would mine those items, then that equipment would attract the lightning that would fall on the area where they would mine.
But That equipment could most attract lightning for three months, and after that, it would be scrapped.
That process was a costly affair. The labor cost was also very high as there was a risk of death involved in mining there.
"Tian Jian, the consignment was received from the site in The lightning forest." Li Feng said with a shivering tone.
Tian Jian was also surprised by Li Feng's words, but he suddenly remembered a past event, so he pitifully said, "The lightning Forest!..... Ah! Isn't that place where you almost lost your life!..... At that time I thought you are almost dead, but you got lucky that time,"
Li Feng was angered by Tian Jian's cursing words, so he hatefully thought inside,' This Tian Jian has cursed my death.'
"Yes, it is that lighting forest, and also this time the consignment is the most value consignment we ever received," Li Feng said coldly.
"I know about that. ___ You would better immediately send the consignment to my office for further appraisal."
"I will send it right away," Li Feng replied. After that, Tian Jian left the Li Feng cabin.
At the appraisal office, Tian Jian received the consignment. When he opened it, he saw, Two fist-sized blue-colored stones, one purple color shining stone, one old and golden crown which may be antique, and an ordinary-looking sword.
Out of these items, the purple-colored stone looked most peculiar and attractive. Its shine, color, edges all were perfect. Its value was unmeasurable, the crown also looks very old, and those blue-colored stones are also valuable but not valuable as other items.
'what about this sword, this looks like a new sword made from normal steel. I think someone lost it when they ventured to the forest, but its body is perfect. Its hilt, edges, length, handle they are perfect, and it looks like made by some divine being.' Tian Jian thought inside.
"Whatever, it's just a normal sword, and the purple stone is a real item, and I will try to appraise its value first." Tian Jian convinced himself.
When Tian Jian was about to appraise the Purple stone, his office door opened with a loud sound, and from that door, four black masked people, equipped with a suit and weapons, forcefully came in.
The sudden and forceful entrance of the four people shocked Tian Jian, and For a second, he didn't understand what was happening there. After some time, he realized that these four people were robbers who came to rob the consignment goods.
"don't move." The Tallest person in that group shouted.
"Who are you?" Tian Jian asked with surprise.
"You have no right to know who we are, and from now on, I would be the person who asks questions here, not you. You should have to answer obediently, also don't play smart, or else, your one dear life will be gone." Tallest Person said with a grave threatening tone.
To that person's threats, Tian Jian wasn't afraid, so Tian Jian fearlessly asked, "What do you want?"
"Did you receive a consignment most recently? If So, Where is it now?" The Tallest Person sternly asked.
"What consignment? I didn't receive any of the consignment, and I think you got the wrong information." Tian Jian said immediately with an honest and confident voice.
"You think we are fools? I know you received consignment goods from the lightning forest, so don't play smart here." The tallest person furiously shouted at Tian Jian.
Tian Jian was surprised by their accurate information, so he knows that his lies won't work anymore, so he asked them boldly, "I think you didn't have come for the consignment, but particularly come for that purple stone, right?"
"Oh, then you know our purpose, that makes our things easier, so obediently tell where that stone is." The tallest person asked with a playful smile.
"How do you know about our company consignment goods?" Tian Jian asked skeptically.
"You have no right to know that, and I also remember as I told you not to ask questions here!" the Tallest person angrily shouted at Tian Jian.
By that person's shout, Tian Jian immediately went into deep contemplation about his plan of action. He thought for a while and then, with a fearful tone, said,
"Don't do anything to me, and I will tell you everything."
"So, you know how to behave. I promise you if you obediently tell me everything, then I would spare you life." The tallest person, with a proud and satisfactory smile, promised to Tian Jian.
"That item is right over there." Tian Jian pointed with his right hand, but that direction was fake.
Then those robbers, with a smile, moved in that direction, but when the last person in the group is passing by Tian Jian, he, with a powerful punch, attacked right on that person's face.
The Sudden attack caught that person off guard, and before he knew what happened, he crashed to the ground.
"Bang," A loud sound was heard by the remaining persons of the group, so they abruptly turned back.
The third person also turned back, but he didn't expect a surprise hateful attack was locked on his most valuable part. Because when he turned back, Tian Jian was already about to kick into his crotch.
"Plop!" The attack didn't miss.
That person's face turned purple, then he painfully held his crotch and slowly collapsed to the ground.
