Chapter Eighty-Three: The Cone of Light

Two thousand seven hundred and forty-fifth cycles.

The basement is no longer visible in its original shape, leaving only a huge crater hundreds of meters deep and more than ten kilometers in diameter.

Like a meteorite in the center of a spectacular crater filled with fly ash, the black-brown soil rose with scorching heat, and the groundwater slowly overflowed the ravines for unknown reasons, washing away the mess caused by the battle.

The heart of London has been completely erased. The British people who rebelled against oppression, the blood clans who led beasts and cannibals, and the Nazi soldiers who fished in troubled waters have all become embers that are slowly burning in the pit.

Silence, deathly silence hung over the crater, and occasionally there was a shallow and ignorant breeze that still blew the side walls of the crater, creating a noise.

The expressionless Li Ang fell half-kneeling in the center of the hole, and most of his body turned into crystal clear crystals, which continued to weather with the passage of time.

The cold moonlight shrouded his body, refracted on the ground through the crystals, and looked mottled.

Monk Jindan's strong vitality barely hung on his last breath, and he stood up in thick clothes, and small crystal fragments fell from his body with a "click", and fell to the ground in a few breaths.

He looked around, and the raven had been shot off in the head; Dumbledore's whole being cut off by the waist; The Manchu man was even more dead, crushed into flattened flesh.

As for the Ancient One, she collapsed on the other side of the pit, her body split into countless pieces, each of which was attached to the space fragments. These space debris are angled to each other and implicated in each other, but they do not form a plane uniformly.

Like Pablo Picasso's cubist abstract paintings.

"You've lost."

The Ancient One mage said in his four-petaled shard-like mouth, his voice distorted by overlapping, "Each time, we're one step closer to defeating you. ”

"But how much longer can you repeat?"

Li Ang said coldly: "People have limits. Even if you are a monk, you can only hold on for a little longer. Countless cycles, countless reincarnations, will completely wear out your will, and you will eventually become an ignorant and unconscious walking corpse. ”

"Until then, I think we'll be able to hold out a little longer." The Ancient One Mage smiled faintly, "On the contrary, you were in a hurry, didn't you?"

You know, not only can I manipulate time within my authority, but I can also penetrate the river of time and foresee the world line of the Ganges River.

Put a monkey next to a typewriter and command the monkey to make irregular taps on the typewriter.

Just spread the constraints of this scene to an infinite amount of time. Then there will always be a world where the monkey unconsciously knocks out "The Complete Works of Shakespeare", and it is exactly the same. ”

She paused, then smiled, "I think we have a better chance of beating you than a monkey typing out the Complete Works of Shakespeare."

If you try slowly, you'll always succeed, won't you? ”

Leon grinned and said lazily, "Maybe, but I'm impatient." ”

"Oh?" The Ancient One mage raised his eyebrows, "Do you want to choose to cooperate with us?" ”

"No," Leon tilted his head and said with a smile, "I have seen through all your possibilities and learned everything about you through this 2,745th cycle.

Since there is no surplus value to be tapped, then I intend to completely wipe you out in the literal sense of the word, once and for all. ”

"Hehe," the Ancient One Mage Wan Er, ignoring the other party's threat.

The Eye of Agamotto has an unimaginable mystical priority, and according to its forger, Supreme Mage Agomore, it is a magical artifact that helps the user see through the never-ending river of time and peer into the ultimate secrets of the physical constant of time.

Not to mention a mere Jindan monk, even if Li Ang really had an epiphany and became a god on the ground, it is impossible to break the time loop like a Mobius ring.

Gu Yi was thinking about it, but Li Ang raised his palm, and with lightning speed, he randomly released a beam of light towards the sky.

The Ancient One Master subconsciously planned to restart the time loop, but he heard Li Ang say leisurely: "Within the light cone, it is fate. ”

"What?"

Gu Yi was stunned, but Li Ang didn't answer in a hurry, and paused before saying, "This is a physical annotation of the word 'fate'.

Set a two-dimensional coordinate system, the origin O is the light source, the X axis is the distance between the observer and the light source, and the Y axis is the time after the light source is lit.

Because the speed of light propagation is finite, in a two-dimensional coordinate system, the propagation of light along the Y-axis appears in the shape of a cone, which is called the light cone. ”

Gu Yi frowned puzzled, as an old monster, she had enough time to dabble in some strange knowledge.

Science and magic are both ways to explain the world, and there is no distinction between superior and inferior, and the ancient mage who can adapt to modern life can naturally understand Leon's explanation.

However, why did the other party mention this?

The Ancient One mage was worried and wanted to restart time, but he was worried that he had missed some key information that might affect the outcome of the battle.

"Anyway, the Eye of Agomoto has the highest level of priority, and even if the other party has any strange moves, it can be solved by going back in time."

She comforted herself and decided to keep listening.

"In the vast three-dimensional universe, the cone coordinate system of light will be skewed, for example, a massive celestial body will deflect the curve of light towards the Y axis, while a black hole capable of devouring light will shift light to the second quadrant."

Li Angwan smiled and said casually: "The above two special situations aside, in most cases, it is impossible for any information to travel faster than the speed of light.

This means that if you are not within the range of the light cone, you will not be able to observe light, you will not be able to obtain specific information about an event, and naturally you will not be able to interfere with the event in any way.

On this basis, we can conclude that the event will never have an impact on us, and that it does not happen at all at this moment. ”

Gu nodded, and she understood the concept effortlessly.

Like throwing a pebble into the middle of a pond, it takes a few seconds for the ripples to reach the edge of the pond.

Until these seconds are up, the insect entrenched on the edge of the pond is not affected by the pebbles in the center of the lake at all, for which no stones have fallen at all for a few seconds, and must be mediated by ripples in order to form a causal relationship between the two.

The stone is the event itself.

The pond is the time and space in which the observer lives.

Ripples are the causal effects of events.

The speed at which ripples travel is the speed of light.

The propagation curve of the ripples is the light cone.

The insect is the observer.

Li Ang smiled freely, "Any event in the world, whether it is a star explosion or a fart by Wu Ergou next door,

A future cone of light is created, and the event approaches the observer at the speed of light, and since nothing can exceed the speed of light, the physical impact of the event itself is completely unpredictable until it arrives, and no changes can be made to the event itself.

It's like the sun suddenly stops shining, and the observer doesn't know about it eight minutes before the beam reaches the Earth.

This event only makes sense when the time of eight minutes arrives and the beam reaches the observer. However, by this time the observer is already within the light cone, and can no longer make causal changes to the event. ”

Li Ang's smile became brighter and brighter, he raised his head, stared at the bright moon in the sky, and muttered to himself, "Even if it is the time rewind effect, it can't surpass the light cone."

So, I just need to release an event at a speed extremely close to 299792458m/s before you start the time regression, and create a future light cone.

You will never be able to catch up with me, and you can only passively stay outside the cones of light in the future, waiting in vain for the predetermined destiny to come.

And this is the true meaning of 'within the cone of light, all is fate'. ”

He leaned forward, looked directly at Gu Yi's shattered pupils, and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, you're now within the scope of fate's whipping. ”
