L077◇Oracle Guard
The darkness ahead seems to be endless, and if you keep walking, you will inevitably despair if you can't see the future 20 meters away.
"Asahi."
“?” Lin Xiaoxu paused for a moment and stopped.
"We've come to the place where we fell, right where you stand."
Is that so? Lin Xiaoxu moved his foot and looked down, there was a large trace of the stone brick being soaked in water, and the soil that had been moistened had dried up half; And there was nothing overhead, and it looked like a ceiling that was no different from other places.
"How do you know this is it? How long have I been walking, is it here that the water dries up so quickly? Could it be that time passes quickly here. ”
"As you say."
As I said? What is as I said? Don't...... Time passes really fast in this dungeon?? I said no wonder that the incendiary stick, which can burn for more than ten hours, burned out in more than ten minutes...... No, no, then why can't I feel hungry? Supposed to make me so hungry that I can't walk? And correspondingly, shouldn't my somatosensory responses, thinking speed, etc. be improved accordingly?
"Perhaps, the speed of time in this dungeon is normal, and we are slowing down."
Hearing that Kamanos denied himself again, Lin Xiaoxu couldn't help but complain: "How did you come to this conclusion?" ”
"Because the soul is only affected by the slower flow of time, and the faster flow of time is ineffective for the soul, then I will not be able to communicate with you at all, and it may take ten times longer for you to say a word, and you will speak extremely fast in my ears."
Kamanos paused for a moment, and then said, "This is a lethal part of restraining soul creatures, because the soul's reaction ability cannot be accelerated, only slowed down, and you physical creatures can increase their attack speed and thinking time by increasing their reaction speed. This is similar to why your physical beings cannot exceed the speed of light on their own, because you need to maintain a normal balance of systems in your body, such as the flow of blood, the secretion of hormones, and the minimum requirement is that you must protect yourself with a layer of non-entities."
“……”
The more you talk about it, the more mysterious it becomes, and you don't understand what you're talking about, okay? Grand Mentor of Kamanos?
「…… I don't know how to forget it." In his tone, Kamanos couldn't help but carry a hint of helplessness.
Lin Xiaoxu: "Then why does the burning stick burn so fast?" ”
"Maybe it's because time slowdown only works on creatures, but vice versa we have normal time, and maybe it's accelerated for non-creatures."
"But you're not a creature, are you?" Lin Xiaoxu propped his chin and tilted his head in confusion.
"Although we undead have no flesh and blood, we have the ability to think, judge, and have independent logic, and we can exist in this world as 'undead' until our souls are completely dissipated."
"Crooked." In Lin Xiaoxu's opinion, a guy who can't even beat his heart can only be regarded as a dead thing.
"Isn't it a fallacy, you should ask the creator gods of this world how they made the laws of the world."
The system says that this world is customized for me, but I am not the creator god, so who should I ask! Q system? The system replied to me that it was strange!
【RS:Bingo! But/no/reward。 】
Lin Xiaoxu sighed and raised his head: "Then how to explain this?" ”
「…… How can the building be repaired on its own?"
Lin Xiaoxu was dumbfounded: "What the hell is that?" ”
"I don't know, I've read it in Daystar's book before, but I can't understand the text below except for the title."
Lin Xiaoxu fully expressed with his expression: What do you want?
"......" Kamanos was helpless, even though he knew Asahi was joking......
There was no solution to the problem, so Lin Xiaoxu had to continue to walk forward, and found that the previous hole had disappeared, so he cut off the back way to climb out of the hole if he couldn't get out. As he walked, Lin Xiaoxu suddenly said, "Hey, didn't you leave before, how can you have the heart to pay attention to whether I have returned to the place before?" Anyway, you still have a question that you haven't answered, how do you know this is it? ”
"I originally wanted to get out, but since entering this passage, I have found that the soul body cannot penetrate the stone bricks here, and there must be something wrong with the stone bricks here. As for the solution...... In fact, it is very simple, it is to absorb the free soul particles around it like a flower, give birth to a soul fire that belongs to itself and does not belong to itself, and then put it in the place where we pass by, and this soul fire will become a beacon-like thing, always able to tell me its location, and it can see things in its field of vision. It's a method that all the undead do, but the undead with low IQ don't know how to use it."
Lin Xiaoxu blinked: No, 4 understands very well that you are shrinking the mold. Soul fire that belongs to you and doesn't belong to you? What the hell is that, can we talk well?
「…… I don't know how to forget it."
Again, Grand Mentor Kamanos, can we still have a good chat? Lin Xiaoxu held the lantern to deflate, and her leaping thinking immediately reminded her of a new question: "You didn't go out, so why didn't I feel very heavy?" ”
"Because I'm not possessed of you."
"Then why didn't I see you?" Saying that, Lin Xiaoxu was still looking around, but he didn't see the faint blue figure of Kamanos at all.
"Because I'm invisible."
So good? The undead can still be invisible? Isn't that not even knowing that you were stabbed while sleeping?
"Foolishness! It's just that you're too weak, and when you reach a height, you'll slowly have the ability to feel the soul, and that ability your order profession seems to call beast realization?" He shook his head as he spoke, "...... No, maybe it's the ability to feel everything...... But the subtleties of this realm can only be understood when you ascend to that realm yourself."
Lin Xiaoxu thought that Kamanos still had something to say later, but after waiting for a long time, he came to the conclusion that there was no follow-up, and he suddenly felt that he had been trapped. Is there a difference between this and not saying it! Lin Xiaoxu wanted to go crazy, but this strange passage didn't give her more time, and the next second she felt a wave of heaven and earth, and the stone bricks on the four walls in front of her suddenly shifted strangely several times, and raised the lantern forward, and saw some stone bricks that fell out of nowhere quickly reorganized, and a giant like a golem was built out of thin air, completely blocking the road ahead.
But unlike the golem, the golem is more like a technological product of the white dwarf, and the joints of this thing are empty, and even the head has only one shell, not even a face, let alone facial features. The thing now had limbs, torso, hands and feet stacked on top of each other, filling the entire passage.
[RS: Oh no! It's the Oracle Guard! 】
What the hell is that! The system is very quick to introduce!
The system did not respond to Lin Xiaoxu, and what followed was that the pile of things seemed to be charged, and clusters of magic formed on the joints, and some thread-like magic power was divided into the limbs of the oracle guard, and with a soft "click", the oracle guard moved!
