Vol 6 Chapter 3072: rain of chaos

   Chapter 3072 Rain of Chaos
  Laplace recounts some of the memories she saw in the sea of ​​empty mirrors.
   It emphasized "one man, one beast and half a city".
   The so-called "one person" refers to a wizard who is suspected of being a time-related person.
   From the perspective of picture recording, it should come from a water curtain hanging in the sky, and the scene reflected by it.
  The water curtain may be a kind of water dome, or it may be a sea of ​​sky, because of the angle, it is not clear what the specific situation is. But the ground scene reflected by the water curtain can be clearly seen.
   On the ground, there was a witch wearing a phantom cloak. She moved quickly on the treetops and quickly passed through a forest.
   is just her movement, not the displacement that ordinary people see, but a strange movement.
   Before each big stride, she would show two phantoms.
   For example, if she wants to go to a treetop five hundred meters away, she will first show a rainbow phantom A at the target point. This phantom A is stationary.
   After Phantom A appears, a rainbow Phantom B will appear at a distance between Phantom A and her body, which is about 250 meters away. Although Phantom B also stayed in place, it was dynamic, like running.
   Shortly after these two phantoms appeared, the cloaked witch teleported from the same place to the location of phantom A.
  After the cloaked witch arrived at her destination, the two phantoms disappeared.
   simply means this shift. Angel didn't see any clues, but Laplace was very sure, this is a kind of time ability.
   seems to be the transmission of the space system, but it is actually the use of the ability of the time system.
   She used phantom A to simulate where she finally reached the target point, which is a "result"; she used phantom B to simulate the scene when she was moving, which was a "process".
After she has the process and result of the movement, the "event logic" is established; once she starts to move, the "time logic" is also established; if there is no problem with the appearance logic, then the final "practical result" will definitely succeed, and this practical result That is - reaching the end.
   This creates a scene similar to space teleportation, but this is not teleportation, but an illusion that deceives the logic of time.
Although   Laplace explained the situation in detail, Angel was ignorant.
   After saying "one person", the second memory picture that Laplace said was "one beast".
   This beast refers to an unknown monster.
Its body shape is like a snake; but its specific appearance, including the pattern of patterns, whether it has scales or not, whether the head shape is triangular or oval... etc., Laplace has not seen it, because it is covered with pancreas. A rainbow-like light obscured his sight.
   This snake is very peculiar, it was seen by Laplace while looking at the "landscape".
   At that time, Laplace did not deliberately look for the special memory picture in the Sea of ​​​​Empty Mirrors, but stared at a nearby picture in a daze. This picture has no characteristics, and it shows "the calm sea under the moonlight".
  I thought it was just an ordinary picture, but suddenly, Laplace saw an illusory shadow above this sea, the shadow was like a snake.
   Just after Laplace looked at the somewhat illusory snake in the picture, the next second, the snake appeared beside Laplace.
  Yes, literally - the real snake came to the vicinity of Laplace's body.
   It drilled out of the image of the Sea of ​​Empty Mirrors, directly changing from the virtual to the real, and showing the entity in the mirror domain.
   At that time, Laplace was shocked, and it was the first time she saw that a creature jumped out of the picture directly.
   And after the snake appeared in the mirror field, it still couldn't see its appearance, and the whole body was covered by the rainbow light. After it appeared, it looked around.
   It glanced at Laplace and then at the sea of ​​empty mirrors floating around.
   "It turned out to be observed by the creatures in the mirror domain. No wonder it fell out of the time gap... The sea of ​​empty mirrors is really dangerous, and there are still creatures that can survive here."
   "Unfortunate, forget it, go back first."
   The glowing snake muttered these two words to himself, then turned into a rainbow streamer and disappeared.
  Laplace went to look at the "calm sea under the moonlight" again, and he didn't find the other person's shadow in the picture.
This incident had a great impact on Laplace. She never thought that the object of her observation would pop out of the screen and face her face to face... But it was also because the other party appeared beside Laplace in person, which made her capture it. opponent's breath.
   Later, by chance, Laplace finally confirmed that the breath on the other party's body was... the power of time.
   The above is the story of "One Beast".
   It was just the story of this "one beast", and Angel was more confused than the previous "one person" story.
   Moreover, Laplace is also vague in some places, for example, how did Laplace determine by chance that this is the power of time?
   Laplace was reluctant to go into details, and Angel was naturally inconvenienced, so he could only confine the scope of his thinking to the story itself.
   After pondering for a moment, Angel asked: "Are you sure, those two sentences are what it said?"
  Laplace: "It is certain that it is not spoken in words, but a special wave of thought."
   After confirming that these two sentences were said by the glowing snake, Angel fell into thought.
   From the other party's words, two pieces of information can be captured: First, it seems to know the Mirror Domain and the Sea of ​​Empty Mirrors. Second, it explicitly refers to 'self-observed'.
   Inferring from the meaning of the words, it seems that the snake fell out of the time gap because it was "observed".
   As long as it is "observed", changes in traits will occur.
  This reminds Angel of a famous experiment on Earth that Jon once talked about...
   In the end, Angel still didn't figure out what this ability to "get away with 'law' in a time gap without being observed" was. His abilities in the time system are still very vague, so he can only put them aside temporarily.
   The example of "one person and one beast" that Laplace mentioned earlier is actually quite outrageous, and the "half city" that Laplace described at the end is even more outrageous.
Laplace doesn't know where "Half City" is.
  The perspective of the half city comes from the glass installed on the top of the clock tower of the human city, because this clock tower has only one side of glass, and there is only one side in the opposite direction.
   Therefore, the scene presented in the picture is only the "half city" reflected by the glass.
   But through this half of the city, Laplace saw a very strange scene.
At first, I thought it was a very ordinary human city...or a small town, because there are no towering buildings. From the perspective of half the city, the tallest building is just a cathedral, and the highest part of the church is actually Not as tall as the bell tower.
  Other houses are very ordinary with red walls and white roofs.
   The character of the whole town is probably clean, tidy and mediocre.
   But soon, the picture changed abruptly: in the clean sky, thick dark clouds suddenly floated, and then, a downpour fell from the thick clouds and sprinkled on the town.
  As the rain fell, this ordinary town began to change.
  The rain is like a paintbrush for drawing lead dust. In the blink of an eye, the clean and tidy town was covered with thick moss, and the walls of the houses that were originally white began to show mottled traces.
The most obvious change of    is the towering church... its top collapsed.
  There is no external force to destroy the top of the church. From the picture, there is only one reason for its collapse: aging.
  It is not only churches and houses that are aging, but also the people living in the town!
It can be clearly seen from the picture that a young man is wiping dust on the outer dial at the top of the clock tower. Under the heavy rain, his skin begins to age, and spots appear on his body. In just a few seconds, time has passed. Dimension, became a vicissitudes of life.
   After a few more seconds, the old man continued to age, and eventually turned into a skinny corpse. Because of the weight loss, coupled with the sudden wind and rain, the corpse was blown off, and finally fell into the ground and turned into scraps.
   This scene is already very surprising, but what is even more surprising is that this heavy rain is not only aging.
   Actually, at the top of the clock tower, that is, on the outside of the glass, there is not only the young guy wiping the dust. There is also a middle-aged hunchbacked uncle standing on the edge of the clock tower.
   He was originally instructing the guy where to wipe.
   But unexpectedly, a sudden heavy rain turned the young man into a skeleton.
   The middle-aged hunchbacked uncle was stunned by the scene in front of him, so he slumped on the ground. Fortunately, there were handrails next to him, otherwise he would have fallen off the top of the tower.
   The heavy rain is still falling, and the middle-aged hunchback uncle was actually exposed in the rain, but the amazing thing is that he did not age in this rain, but instead appeared younger.
   In just a few seconds, the uncle's hunchback disappeared, his stature became taller, and his sallow skin became fair and elastic.
   Soon, a young man who was somewhat similar to the uncle appeared on the screen.
   And the heavy rain came fast, and the sound was fast, and it had already begun to subside slowly.
   But before the heavy rain stopped, the uncle was still getting younger, youth was not the end, and a few seconds later, he appeared as a teenager.
   After a few more seconds, until the heavy rain stopped, the former middle-aged hunchback uncle turned into a six or seven-year-old child. If it weren't for the oversized shirt he was wearing and if Laplace had not witnessed it with his own eyes, no one would have thought that a middle-aged man would return to his childhood in a few seconds.
  This rain, just from the changes of these two people, seems to give people a pattern: the old will become young, and the young will become old.
   But this is not the case. There are old men who turn into bones in the blink of an eye. Similarly, there are children who turn into babies in the blink of an eye, and eventually disappear, erasing their traces directly from the world.
   So, this is not a regular rain, its changes, as far as this "half city" is concerned, is completely random.
  The only thing we know is that this rain contains the unknown power of time, it has integrated into this city, and it has also changed this city…
   This is the story of "Half City".
   It can be said that this is the most outrageous among "one man, one beast and half a city", but it is also the most in line with Angel's imagination of the power of time.
   In the previous "one person and one beast", Angel still needs Laplace to explain, or think for himself, to understand the limit of the power of time. But this "half city" directly demonstrates the power of time, not only changing the color of the earth, changing buildings, but also causing irreversible growth and aging of living people.
   This is the power of time.
  Although Angel can understand "Half City" the most, it is also "Half City" that scares him the most.
  Because according to the theory that Earl Black told him before, this kind of direct change of external time, at least ordinary wizards cannot do it, nor can legendary wizards do it.
   This rainstorm of time is either an unknown miracle wizard method...or it may be the effect of a mysterious thing.
The reason why    speculated that it would be related to the mysterious thing is that Angel knew that the Prophet's Temple contained a strategic-level mysterious city with a Hoopa coefficient as high as 75, called the "City of Reincarnation".
  This city of reincarnation has evolved a city from prosperity to destruction for three days. After three days, everything will be reset, the destroyed things will disappear, and all people and things will change to three days ago.
   Of course, this mysterious thing is not limited to the superficial three-day reincarnation. It can be used as a strategic-level mystery of the Prophet's Temple, and naturally it has a deeper effect.
   But just talking about the effect on the surface, you can know that this "city of reincarnation" must be related to the power of time.
   And this rainstorm in "Half City" represents both new life and destruction... If it is not the handwriting of the miracle wizard, it may be made by a mysterious thing.
   As for the source of the mysterious thing, Angel doesn't know, but it may be... rain.
  Mysterious things never stick to the outside, it may be a city, it may be a heartbeat, it may even be a ray, or a budding concept.
  Since mysterious things can have various forms, it might not be a heavy rain.
   Of course, all of this is Angel's guess.
   However, having said that, there is another reason why Angel guesses that "Half City" is a mysterious thing, that is, it is missing a point.
The person and beast in front of    all have the iconic rainbow light of time.
The phantom created by the cloaked witch exudes a strange rainbow light; and the snake, which will appear when observed, also exudes the light of the rainbow... Angel remembers that in the ring of the cave, Aikes created The iridescent silk thread and the rainbow figure on the top of the head are also rainbow rays of light.
  It seems that this strange iridescent light has become a sign of the time system.
   But in "Half City", there is no such light at all.
   It is certainly impossible to say that the rain in half the city has nothing to do with time. Such an obvious difference made Angel come up with different guesses.
   But no matter whether this guess is right or not, the magic of the time system can be seen just from the time system ability learned from Laplace's mouth.
   Anyway, when Angel finally left the heart space, the whole person was still immersed in the strange ability fantasy of the time system.
