Bang, bang,

Zhang Xiao is powerful and fast, and in a few clicks, the room was chopped to pieces, and there were wood dregs everywhere, and the ornaments and clothes were completely unrecognizable.

However, it didn't seem to be of any particular use, and there were no strange changes in the room other than destruction.

Zhang Xiao had no accident, put away the fire axe in his hand, and left the confessional directly, he did not stay in the church, this time he actually pushed open the door of the church directly and walked out.

As soon as he pushed open the door of the church, Zhang Xiao looked around vigilantly, and this time, he had to observe carefully in order to determine when the mutation had happened.

But this time, it seemed that he didn't need to look closely, because the moment he stepped out of the church door, the world changed in front of his eyes!

The corridor, which was originally clean and tidy, was covered with all kinds of suspicious black stains as soon as he walked out of the church, and those stains appeared out of thin air, on the floor, on the guardrails, on the hull, and even on the ceiling.

A strong smell of rotting pork also emanated from every corner, filling the tip of the nose, and even the sea breeze could not blow it away.

"It's ......"

There was no big surprise on Zhang Xiao's face, he had guessed that the "door" might be one of the keys to the change, and now it just completely proved it.

To say that the accident is the scene in front of him is still slightly beyond his expectations, after all, although there were also changes on the ship before, they are nothing compared to what he is in front of.

Zhang Xiao, who has experienced a hundred battles and is well-informed, can see the origin of those black stains at a glance - those things are all blood, or most of them are traces of dried blood; There are also some suspicious things in it, which seem to be human organ tissues, skin, muscles, bones, etc.

Although there were no other changes except for the terrifying scene in front of him, and the surroundings were still quiet like ghosts, Zhang Xiao was still very vigilant.

For the sight before him did not frighten him, but the meaning contained in it was important to pay attention to - the ship was not safe, and at a time he did not know that terrible horror had taken place.

Zhang Xiao carefully held the fire axe in his palm, this thing could rarely give him a sense of security.

Drops –

Suddenly, Zhang Xiao's face was cold, he reached out and wiped his face, and saw the dark red and almost black liquid on his hand, and when he raised his head, he could faintly see the liquid seeping from the upper deck.

Zhang Xiao's face changed, and it seemed that this tragedy was not too long.

It is important to know that the blood clotting time of the corpse is about 10~30 minutes, which will also be affected by the temperature, humidity, and air circulation, but it will not exceed one hour at most.

Although the blood on his hands had turned black, it had not yet completely coagulated, indicating that the terrifying scene in front of him was likely to occur within half an hour to an hour.

Zhang Xiao cautiously glanced at the deck above, did not hesitate, and immediately turned around and was about to retreat into the church.

But when he turned around, he saw that the door of the church, which had not been closed behind him, had been completely locked at some point, and it was covered with black stains.

You don't have to look closely to see the scars under the smudges: nail scratches, punches and kicks, and even slashes from sharp objects.

Contrary to these traces, the door of this church was not opened at all, and Zhang Xiao could not open the door of the church even if he pushed and pulled the door.

"Sure enough, in addition to the door, the other key to the mutation is time!"

This door was obviously pushed open by him from the inside, but now it is locked, which is completely unreasonable, and combined with other discoveries, Zhang Xiao has been able to come to this conclusion with certainty.

The inexplicable floating dust, the crowd that disappeared and disappeared, and the extra robes on his body, the blood that could not have dried up in front of him, and the church door that should not have been locked.

Every time you enter a door and leave a door, it is as if you have entered another world, but in fact, it is not only space that has changed, or rather, the base of space has not changed, what has changed is time!

All this shows that the time he has experienced is not coherent!

"Entering and exiting a room takes you into another time period...... However, it is not yet possible to determine the direction of the time span. ”

What Zhang Xiao means is that he can't be sure whether time is going to the future or the past.

While there is evidence of backward time in the way of floating dust, there is also evidence of forward time.

For example, the extra robe, although Zhang Xiao didn't know if it was the one on his body or the one on the old priest, there was no doubt that there must be a robe that should not appear.

Yes, Zhang Xiao suspects that anything that is taken away by him is likely to be completely out of the timeline, otherwise it makes no sense that there is no change in his body at all.

There was no blood, no scars, and no dust, which meant that everything on him was consistent with his timeline, not the timeline from which he opened the door and entered.

Then think about it, and know that the extra robe could not have come from the future, but could have appeared in the past, before the old priest had changed his clothes.

Only in this way, after Zhang Xiao took the robe and left the church, time and space changed, and the old priest could have taken the same robe, so the only hanger would be vacated.

Otherwise, there should be two empty hangers.

Of course, speculation is always just speculation, and Zhang Xiao knows this, so he is going to see the evidence nowβ€”to see what has become of the church room that he has destroyed.

……

Although the door of this church is locked from the inside, it is just an ordinary door after all, not to mention that Zhang Xiao still has a fire axe in his hand, even if there is no such thing, this door cannot stop Zhang Xiao.

"Bang-" The blade of the axe slashed precisely through the crack in the door, and there was a faint sound of metal grinding there.

Although the door in front of me has not yet opened, I know from the sound that the lock inside should have been damaged, and it will definitely not withstand another axe.

However, Zhang Xiao had some scruples, and did not split another axe, but pressed his hands on the door and pushed it with his luck...... Click!

The door opened in response, Zhang Xiao did not hesitate, and immediately walked in.

The church in front of him was not the same as the situation outside, there was no horror, but it was no different from what he saw when he entered before, it seemed that Zhang Xiao's guess was wrong.

However, Zhang Xiao did not draw arbitrary conclusions, he consciously observed everything he saw, compared with what he saw when he came in before.

Soon he was sure that the place in front of him was not the place he had just come, no, it should be said, not the time he had just been.

The most obvious thing is the floating dust, the thin floating dust that was originally on the rows of chairs is gone.

Seeing this, Zhang Xiao turned his head to look out of the door again, and sure enough, the outside of the church door was still the same as before, and there was black stain everywhere.

"It looks like time hasn't changed for the time being......"

Zhang Xiao turned around and walked towards the confessional room, where he wanted to make sure of the changes.

There was no accident, when Zhang Xiao walked into the confessional room, he saw the room intact, without any traces of destruction.

Zhang Xiaodi opened the wardrobe, and the robe there was the same as before it was destroyed, one less.

Zhang Xiao was thoughtful, he seemed to understand the situation in front of him.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I see, the timeline outside the door is fixed, and as soon as I walk out of the door, I will enter a stable period of time. ”

"No, I should say that as long as I step through the door of a certain room to the outside world, the timeline will be fixed, and as long as I don't cross this door again, time will not change."

"So Second Officer James was able to contact Father Harry because they were actually at the same time as me when I was in the surveillance room."

"But as soon as I left the room...... Wait a minute! ”

Zhang Xiao's face changed when he thought of this, "If it is really the same as I guessed, then why didn't the time change when I left the monitoring room with Father Harry?" ”

Yes, if it was really the same as he thought, then as soon as he left the monitoring room, he had already stepped into another timeline, how could the old priest still be in front of him?

Unless......
