Chapter 73: Adaptation Period

When Emily left the house, it was 7 p.m. on July 12, 2006. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

At this time, on the other side, Ye Yu and Shen Bing were already ambushed in a secluded corner of the wetland park.

"Alas, it's up to them to face death step by step." Shen Bing said with some sadness in his heart.

She knew very well what kind of fate Emily was going to face next, watching such a kind girl slowly walk into the fate of death, which made Shen Bing couldn't help but feel a little sad.

"Don't be stupid this time, I can understand you for the first time, and I can also feel your determination to give your life in order to change their lives, and let me feel the desire you want to pursue beauty. This is the belief required to be a backtracker. But now that you've been through so much, you should know what to do to really change their lives, instead of adding a lot of tragedies to nothing. Ye Yu reminded.

"Well, don't worry, I know what to do. I want to quickly find the causal entanglement on the poisonous spider's body, and then unravel it and save Emily. ā€

Speaking of this, a pleasant female voice sounded in the ears of Ye Yu and Shen Bing at the same time.

"Tracer numbered YX212-B9527, please note that your adaptation period in the current film universe is coming to an end, and your current stay time is 5 days and 22 hours, and your adaptation period is still 2 hours. Notice is hereby given. ā€

After listening to this sudden "system prompt", Shen Bing asked suspiciously: "What does the adaptation period mean?" ā€

Ye Yu explained: "As outsiders to this shadow universe, we will be implicated in a lot of cause and effect if we stay in the shadow universe. Therefore, if we want to stay in the Shadow Universe, we will inevitably consume a certain amount of Cause and Effect Coins. ā€

"However, because each Tracer only had 100 Initial Causal Coins when they first entered the Shadow Universe. In order to prevent the backtracking staff from failing the backtracking mission because they have not had time to adapt to the current shadow film universe, the Empire gives each backtracking member a period of time as an adaptation period. ā€

"During the adaptation period, the retrospective's stay in the Shadow Universe does not consume causal coins. In this way, the backtracking staff can collect as much information as possible during the adaptation period, find the causal entanglement point and accumulate more causal coins. ā€

"Once the adaptation period is over, the Tracer will need to consume 10 Karma Coins every day if they want to continue to stay in this shadow universe. And for each additional person carried, the consumption is doubled. ā€

Shen Bing heard this and asked, "Then how long is this adaptation period?" ā€

"Normally, there are 6 days, and this 6 days is calculated based on the actual time we stay in this shadow universe."

"For example, if you stay from today to tomorrow, this is 1 day. Then you go back 2 days and stay for another day, and the timeline goes back to square one, but the actual number of days you stayed has already become 2 days. ā€

"Our actual stay in this film universe is already 5 days and 22 hours, and the adaptation period is over in two hours."

"At that time, if the two of us continue to stay in the entire Shadow Film Universe, we will need to consume 20 Karma Coins every day."

"Once the causal coins are exhausted and go to 0, the backtracking task will be judged to be a failure. As a backtracking officer, once the backtracking task fails, the backtracking points will be deducted, and the performance appraisal will be reduced, and the year-end bonus will be greatly reduced. ā€

After hearing this, Shen Bing suddenly realized: "No wonder, when you went back to 3 years, 2 months and 21 days before, you didn't choose to go back directly to 3 years and 3 months ago. ā€

"If you go back to 3 years, 2 months and 21 days, you need to consume 1,910 Cause and Effect Coins, but if you go back directly to 3 years and 3 months ago, you only need to consume 1,800 Causal Coins."

"I thought it was strange at the time, why don't you just go back to 3 years and 3 months ago at once, and instead save an extra 110 karma coins."

The problem that Shen Bing said is because it takes 10 causal coins to go back to 1 day, but it only takes 100 causal coins to go back for a month at a time. Obviously, the longer the one-time backtracking time, the more discount there will be for the consumption of causal coins.

Ye Yu nodded and replied: "That's right, the reason why I didn't go back to 3 years and 3 months ago at one time is because the adaptation period is approaching." If we go back 3 years and 3 months, it would have been a full 10 days since Emily died. As soon as the remaining 2 days of adaptation are over, we will need to pay 160 Karma Coins for the extra 8 days of stay. Therefore, it is better to look back 3 years, 2 months and 21 days on a budget, but it is more economical. ā€

"Every causal coin is precious, so you have to be careful and don't waste anything." Ye Yu advised.

Shen Bing nodded and said that he had written it down.

During the discussion between the two, the time slowly came to 19:40, and Emily also arrived at the wetland park at this point in time.

Emily looked very nervous, and after getting out of the car, she stopped at the entrance of the wetland park by herself, hesitating.

After 5 minutes, Emily took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to slowly walk into the wetland park.

And just 5 minutes after Emily entered the wetland park, Huang Yong also rushed to the wetland park.

Huang Yong was not as hesitant as Emily, he looked very anxious.

Ever since he couldn't help but call Emily five minutes ago, only to hear the unreachable voice prompt, his inner uneasiness has become more and more intense. Such a strong uneasiness even made Huang Yong feel a little panicked, he didn't know why he was so abnormal today, but he knew that he would only be at ease if he saw Emily immediately.

So as soon as he got out of the car, Huang Yong ran into the wetland park and began to look for Emily everywhere.

However, San Francisco's wetland parks are large and crowded. And unfortunately, the first direction Huang Yong chose after entering the wetland park was exactly the opposite of Emily, and the two drifted apart......

Emily was walking aimlessly on the forest roads of the wetland park at this time, and the occasional couple or strolling tourists around her did not bring her a sense of comfort, but made her stare at everyone very vigilantly, as if wondering who was the one who was ready to tell her life experience.

The time slowly moved towards 20 o'clock, and at the moment when the time came to 20 o'clock, Emily suddenly heard a public phone booth not far from her, suddenly ringing a rapid phone ringing.

Emily looked at the public phone booth in disbelief, the shrill ringing of the bell in the quiet park.

So, by the hands of the ghost, Emily slowly walked to the public phone booth and picked up the phone.
