"But he may have met with an accident."

"No, for some reason, all the monsters in the map should have come to me, and after so long, there have been no monsters I haven't seen, which means that Lab 2 should not be a threat. In short, if you want to leave, go and see, and if you find something unusual, it's never too late to come back. After Yu Ci finished speaking, he wanted to turn around and leave.

"Then why don't you leave?"

"I have important things to do, do you know Dr. Smart?"

Shaka nodded.

"He's not dead, and if I'm doing well, he'll be able to go back soon."

Finally sent Shaka away, Yu Ci didn't want to take Shaka for the most dangerous operation.

Although he could have left with Shaka to complete the main quest, he has always had a great curiosity about the unknown, and he had to test his ideas.

Yu Ci walked into the laser array, let the war horse go in first, and then followed behind it.

He counted the time, twelve minutes had passed, and he only had three minutes left.

He put on his elastic stepping shoes, leaped to the conference table, and used the [POW-3 Generation Metal Long Knife] to cut open the wooden plank in the drawer, and took out the demon contract, and quickly read the missing content as he went.

The Demon Pact, which is a contract between Smart and the "Demon Wings" Trickster, reads: 1. The Devil agrees to stop "stealing time", but Smart has to provide a way to make him have enough food and disappear from the sight of others. 2. Smart is allowed to continue experimenting with all kinds, but only under the supervision of the tricksters. 3. Smart agrees to be a servant of the treacherous indenture.

This contract is monitored by the judgment of heaven and earth, and the demon side loses the right to life if it breaches it, and the human side will become a permanent demon if it breaches it.

After reading it, Yu Ci also walked around the corner, looked far away, and couldn't see through the end, this is an extremely long passage, surrounded by dense, exactly the same door.

"If I hadn't noticed the movement of the curtains, I'm afraid I'd have wasted my time in this passage that is used to confuse people and is of little use."

Yu Ci lifted the curtain, and the wind swept in, and the scene behind the curtain was different from the painting style of the entire underground laboratory, it was a purple vortex, slowly swirling, and the ripples rushed to the center point. In the center is a metal combination lock with three wheels, which appears to be a lock composed of "twenty-six letters".

"Aprolo didn't bring the password...... However, I always have a strange feeling that the password can't really be this......" Yu Ci raised his hand and typed in the letters "H", "E", and "Y".

Suddenly, the wind blowing out changed to inward, and Yu Ci's whole person was sucked into it, and even the irascible war horse behind him did not escape.

"Hey, you really came." Tricky.

It was a normal room, but very well equipped - food cabinet, computer, drink box......

"There are only two chairs here, so you have to stand." Smart turned from a chair in front of a computer, his face still covered with beads of sweat, as if he had just gone through some strenuous exercise.

"You won." The trickster turned to Smart Road.

"I won." Smart smiled, it was a human victory.

"The cycle of time outside is not affected here, right?" Yu Ci said suddenly, the irascible war horse behind him looked a little frightened for some reason, it shrank in the corner, and looked at the trick carefully.

"That's right, time here is not swallowed up, it's the normal flow rate of this world." Smart Road.

"How did you find out who he is?" There was a sad smile on her face all the time, but she couldn't hear the slightest emotional fluctuation from her voice.

"Almost everyone here, I've figured out the identity, but it's only him, and I've been figuring it out. But if you think about it carefully, whether it is to supervise various laboratories or to have access to the general laboratory, it shows that his identity is not simple.

Subject 11 is the so-called first test subject, so who was in charge of the staff before that? Of course, it's the founder here, and when I saw the Demon Pact, I was sure that Smart and you founded this underground lab.

What made me know Smart's identity the most was when he said to me, 'It's not easy here', and only the founder should know that the secrets of this place are still there. Besides, he also gave me a watermelon knife for some reason, but it was not easy to lay it out to that extent. ”

"Oh? Can you read my intentions? Smart looked at Yu Ci with an excited gaze.

At this point, the system prompt sounds.

[Side quest triggered: Solve all situations, reward: Time shrinks]

"If I hadn't seen through it, I'm afraid I would have died a long time ago." Yu Ci said, "If you don't mind, would you like to listen to me analyze what happened here?" ”

It is easy to narrate the daily life here........

After discovering that people's life expectancy was shortening, Smart continued to investigate, and found that their corpses were much older than the age of death, which was a very abnormal thing, so he continued to delve into it, and finally, one day, he thought of the possibility of devouring time, and it was because of the arrival of the trick that this strange phenomenon occurred.

In order to find the trick, he created a device to be installed in his brain, which is a device at the level of the spirit and soul, which can find the breath of life of different creatures, even high-dimensional creatures.

From this, he finds the trickster, and he offers to stop stealing the crowd's time, while offering another plan for him to get food, which is time.

In the conversation with Smart, he keenly discovered some information: Trick is a high-dimensional creature, and his current image is only produced after the concretization of low-dimensional beings.

On this basis, Smart pondered why the trickster would run to Earth to steal time, and naturally thought of breaking the law, smuggling into a foreign country, and getting away with it.

So he uses his invention, the quantum signal, to threaten Trick that if he doesn't agree to stop stealing time, Smart will send signals to all corners of the universe and let the higher-dimensional life forms sanction him.

So, the trickster can only reluctantly agree, but in order to prevent Smart from breaking his promise, he signs a demonic contract with him.

Smart then recruited several condemned prisoners and made them test subjects and devourers.

This involves another invention - the "time compressor", which can compress the time in a certain space into a shorter time, and the time that disappears can become the food of the trick.

Although the more compressed, the shorter the extra time to each subsequent time, but this is like a logarithmic function, even if it gets more and more flat after that, it is still unbounded.

And because he is a high-dimensional creature, he is not governed by time, and in his eyes, he only has the amount of time that can be absorbed, and there is no amount of food that can be eaten in an equal amount of time to reduce this trouble.
