This is an autistic, crazy, and paranoid eccentric.

Because of his personality, he has never stepped out of the bell tower for almost his life, but he likes to use the time to adjust the clock at the top of the clock tower, spying on the crowd below with terrifying eyes, imagining how to kill them.

Ingres was imprisoned in the body of such a strange man who was crazy at heart.

He can't manipulate the weirdo's body, but he can feel his thoughts, spirit, and obsessions, like a second soul in the same body.

Even if Ingres is an independent being, entering the mad mind of this strange man is like falling into the dark mire.

The weirdo must have felt Ingres' presence as well, but because of his autism, he never said a word to Ingres.

Although Ingres is trapped in the weirdo's body, he knows how to get out.

There are two ways, either merge with the strange man's soul and accept all his thoughts and obsessions, or be a bystander and wait for the strange man to die.

Only these two methods can break free from the physical grip of the weirdo.

The first method may be the fastest, but it is also the most costly. Although this strange man is a mortal, according to Ingre's observations, his inner distractions and mad thinking are simply beyond ordinary people, and if he merges with him, his own thinking is likely to have problems at that time.

Integrating such extreme thinking may also make a huge difference in his personality.

Has his personality changed, but is he still himself? This may be an unknown question. Therefore, Ingres did not choose to merge with him, but watched the life of this strange man as a bystander.

In the process, Ingres also tries to communicate with the weirdos, and whenever he has crazy thoughts, Ingres will explain his ideas to him.

The other party's thoughts are not necessarily wrong, and Ingres's own ideas are not necessarily correct, but their positions are different. Ingres expounds his point of view in the hope of having a collision of ideas with the eccentric, and if there is a spark sputtering, maybe it can change some of the eccentric's personality flaws, such as autism.

But the weird man never talked to him, even if Ingres could feel it, and the other party could know what he was thinking.

In this way, Ingres lived in the body of the strange man for five years.

He knew that he was in the vision space, so the concept of time must be wrong, but he could really feel the experience of the weirdo in the past five years.

The strange man still lives lonely and autistic in the clock tower, and goes to adjust the clock at midnight every day, which is his job and his source of livelihood. When adjusting the clock, he would still look down on the beings and think about how to torture and kill them.

Angel quietly watched everything about him, other people's lives are like a duckweed in the sea, no matter the storm, no matter the tide and waves, he quietly rides on this duckweed, slowly sailing to the other side.

Angel thought he would be trapped in the weirdo's body for decades.

But on a snowy night in the fifth year, when the strange man was adjusting the clock, he jumped down the stairs without warning and smashed into the snow. Pure white and bewitching red gradually merge together.

Under the exclamation of the crowd of onlookers, the strange man closed his eyes.

Angel knew that he should be able to escape the freak's shackles. But at this moment, the strange man, who had never responded to Ingres's conversation in his heart, suddenly said to him: "You are very strange......

You're weird.

At the last moment of his life, the weirdo broke through the high wall erected by autism, and said this to him with a puzzled whisper.

Angel has always thought weirdos are weird, but the other party thinks he's weird.

Although they live in the same shell, they are still like two sides of the same mirror, and the person in the mirror may still feel the surface.

As the snowflakes fell, Ingres felt like he was once again hearing the roar and roar of fate.

Then, he woke up.

After waking up, Angel was silent for a while, even if the long river of fate in front of him slowly disappeared, he did not react, but digested the previous different life experience.

It took a long time for Ingres to come to his senses.

At this time, he was no longer on the bank of the long river of fate, but in a void and bleak world, and the only bright spot in this world was the huge clock above his head that made a "tick-tick" sound.

The clock is a roulette wheel, and when the hands inside are moving, the outer gears of the wheel are moving slowly.

And the gears connect the unknown void, and what its rotation means, Ingres doesn't know.

But he vaguely guessed the name of the clock: the Wheel of Time.

The Wheel of Time, like the River of Fate, is still one of the three major schools of prophetic wizards. Ingres wondered, could it be that he had to go through the test of the three schools of prophecy in constructing an object that depicted a blank poem?

In his trance, a strange laugh came from the top of the wheel of time.

Ingres looked up, he couldn't use any tricks now, he couldn't fly, he could only watch from afar. It seemed that on that wheel of time, there was a swarthy figure sitting at the top of the roulette wheel.

I couldn't see his appearance clearly, perhaps it was deliberately concealed, and all Angels could see was a dark shadow.

"Who are you?" asked Ingres, confused.

The black shadow did not answer, but smiled more strangely and cheerfully, and after a long time, the black shadow on the clock suddenly said, "It's a pity that you actually chose to wait." In fact, if you fuse directly, won't you be able to come out faster?"

Angel was stunned, was the other party talking about the different life he had experienced before?

"That's right, boy. The dark shadow's tone was upturned.

"I don't want to be changed. Ingres pondered for a moment, then answered the Shadow's question.

The black shadow sighed "hmm" and said suspiciously: "However, every time you go to a place, every time you meet someone, every time you experience something, when you make a choice, aren't you changing who you used to be?"

Ingres frowned, thinking he was quibbling.

"Yesterday's you are not today's you. The black shadow suddenly laughed: "The future you imagined when you were a child is not what it is today, right? Moreover, you ask yourself, are you living the way you were when you first started? Is the way you are now, the way you used to be?"

"You're stealing concepts. Even if I live the way I used to hate, it's my own choice. Ingres said as he looked at the dark shadow suspiciously, could this be the test that the wheel of time had put on me?

The black shadow seemed to have the ability to read minds, and instead of dwelling on the previous topic, he said to Angel: "Wrong, this is not the consideration given to you by the wheel of time, but the choice I gave you." ”

Ingres didn't understand the meaning of the black shadow, and subconsciously asked, "What choice?"

"You've made your choice. As I said earlier, you chose the latter between merging and waiting. ”

"But what does this have to do with the present?" Ingres wondered.

The black shadow let out a series of strange and strange laughs, and finally said, "Since you chose to wait, then the other option, I will take it." ”

"Huh?" Ingres' head was suddenly full of question marks, what did he call another choice and he took it?

"My test is over, and even though I can only take away one of your past choices, it's still delicious. At this time, the black shadow suddenly and slowly turned into black spots, as if it was about to disappear.

"Who are you?" and "Who are you?"

A faint answer came from the void:

"My real name is very long, and I prefer to be called by others...... Cassini. A few of you people from the wizarding realm often call me ...... Time ......"

His voice grew quieter, and Ingres heard him talking, but in the end he didn't hear what he was saying, only that his name seemed to be "Cassini"?

As the shadow vanished, so did the giant wheel of time.

At this time, the surroundings began to change, and Ingres thought that he would experience the last of the three schools of prophecy: the strings of the world.

But as a result, it didn't.

As the surrounding nothingness dissipated, a door appeared in front of Ingres. Behind the door, he could already faintly see the cloak that he couldn't wait to break out of the shackles of the golden lines.

Angel stepped out the door, and everything behind it became an illusory bubble.

At the same time, when his eyes slowly opened, the clouds and mist around him dissipated at a speed visible to the naked eye, and strange energy poured into the cloak, and at the last moment, Dacheng!

The three people on the mountainside also saw the changes on the top of White Oak Mountain, and they felt a spiritual force patrolling the surroundings.

"It's done. Bai muttered in a low voice.

The silk vine on the side said, "Moreover, according to this huge omen and the previous energy fluctuations, this is at least the alchemy product of the mid-level peak. ”

Half-step high-level Bai looked at the changing clouds on the top of the mountain, with surprise in his eyes: "Then isn't he, one step closer to the alchemy master?"

Si Man also sighed: "I never believed the popularity of the alchemy circle before, but now that I have seen it with my own eyes, I have to believe it." ”

Bai also sighed, you must know that the most powerful alchemist in the Song of the Deep Sea is now, and the highest level of refining is only half a step high.

If Angel joins the Song of the Deep, it is estimated that he will immediately have more treatment than a formal wizard.

"Such an alchemy genius, the savage cave was actually sent out, and the most troublesome guide task was given, I can't figure it out. ”

While Bai was muttering, Jiebo, who had been silent, jumped on the back of the whale on the side: "Bai, it's time to go." ”

"My lord, aren't we going to meet him?"

"Didn't you feel that spiritual power just now, whether he was grateful or disgusted, he already knew we were here, and that was enough. ”

"A new alchemy product has been born, do you think he has time to take care of you now?" Silk Man also turned his arms into black feathers at this time, sneered at Bai, and then flew away first.

After Bai was stunned, he also jumped on the back of the whale and left with Jiebo.
