073. It's hard to go back

"Since you can bring me into this world, there must be a way for me to go back to the world I lived in before, right? Can you ......"

"Can't!"

Without waiting for Luo Hao to finish speaking, Xia Ke directly gave him a very ruthless veto.

Luo Hao looked at her unwillingly: "Why? ”

"I said, are you underestimating world-level shuttles! I'm glad you think so highly of my abilities, but there are some things that I ......."

Shak sighed, a "you know, don't let me say it" look on his face.

"Is it still difficult for you?" Luo Hao asked very unwillingly.

"Hmm......"

Shak pondered for a moment, and then said with a hint of helplessness: "It is not difficult for me to travel through the world, but it is not a simple problem to shuttle back to the world you are in. ”

"How?"

"Every world is constantly moving forward in the torrent of time, for example, if the torrent that encompasses all time is a river, every world is a small grain of sand carried in it, and the direction of the sand changes dramatically every moment. If you want to go back to the old world, it's the equivalent of jumping out of the river and pinpointing the specific sand in the fast-flowing river and sand. Do you think it's easy? ”

“……”

Luo Hao shook his head gloomily.

Shak continued: "I've simplified this example a lot, and it involves specific matters of safe travel, the torrent of time, the collision of worlds, the disappearance and rebirth of cause and effect, and the countless identical worlds that have been derived, all of which must be considered......"

"Well, I already know that there is little hope of going back, and it will be very difficult. But is there no hope of going back at all? Luo Hao still asked without giving up.

Looking at the young man who looked at him expectantly, Xia Ke showed a hint of imperceptible cunning in his eyes, and a look of embarrassment appeared on his face: "It's not that there is no way to go back, but it's ......"

"Please tell me!"

“…… All right. ”

Xia Ke sighed in embarrassment, with an expression of "I really can't help you": "Originally, this is not allowed to be easily told to the next person, but who made you my chosen agent, I will tell you." ”

"Thank you!"

Luo Hao didn't have time to refute the title of "subordinate", he just looked at Xia Ke expectantly, wanting to get a way back from her.

Shaq said, "First of all, you are already my agent, and you will exist as a human for the rest of your life. And with human ability, you will never be able to go back. So, the so-called way to go back is actually to let me take you back to the world you live in. You can see that, right? ”

Luo Hao nodded in understanding.

He's just a slightly more powerful human, and the difficult job of shuttling through the world is not something he can do, and the only person he can rely on is this Shak.

Seeing Luo Hao nodding, Xia Ke continued: "Since you don't have an effective positioning of the world you live in, I didn't pay attention to the world you live in before I contacted you, so I can only take you to shuttle from world to world, if you are lucky, you should be able to find it, if you are unlucky, you ......"

At this point, Shak shrugged his shoulders, and the meaning of his words was obvious.

“……”

Luo Hao was completely speechless, not to mention that he didn't know any effective way to position the world, because he would never have thought that there would be such an encounter, just a chance to shuttle through the world. Just now, Shak also said that there are countless worlds in the river, and the probability of finding the original world is close to one in infinity. If you are lucky, you may be able to go back, but if you are unlucky, then he will never be able to go back!

Despite this, however, he could not give up.

After all, as long as he is alive, there is hope of returning to the original world. Even if he is no longer in the world after he goes back, he wants to go back!

"But you don't have to be too pessimistic!" At this time, Xia Ke spoke up and said to Luo Hao, who was puzzled, "Didn't I say that there is a means to effectively position the world?" You won't, but I will! I only need to locate the world that you and I are not experiencing in that world one by one, and the probability of finding it back will naturally increase! ”

"That's right!"

Hearing this, Luo Hao's eyes lit up.

As long as you continue to locate the world you experience, the probability of finding it can be improved, although the probability after the promotion is still very low, but it means that the hope has increased!

But......

Luo Hao thought of something, and turned to look at Xia Ke suspiciously: "You must have something to do with me as a contemporary walker, and you will allow me to do not do my business in various worlds?" ”

"Ahh Before I even said it, you already thought about it, yes, yes. Xia Ke looked at Luo Hao appreciatively, and then said, "Didn't I say it, I found you simply because I was too bored, so the task or anything is your imagination." You can do whatever you want, and I don't force you to do it. It's like if you want to go back, I have neither opposition nor support! ”

"Neither against nor for it? That is to say......"

Luo Hao was taken aback.

Shak laughed, "That's right, let's talk about the price." ”

"Why do I think I'm still being calculated by you?!" Luo Hao sighed, "There is no free lunch in the world, let's say, what is the price for you to help me?" ”

Xia Ke looked at Luo Hao with a smile: "You should want to get it, after all, I'm a god of death!" ”

"Life?"

Luo Hao's face sank.

"That's right." Xia Ke stretched out his white finger and pointed at the codex in Luo Hao's hand, "In addition to letting you see me, this codex has some other functions. One of them is that as a proxy for the Grim Reaper, for every creature you kill, you get one-twentieth of the time remaining in their natural death. If you want me to help you, exchange the life you've accumulated in the Codex with me! ”

To be more detailed, in the eyes of death, everything has two lifespans. One is the natural lifespan and the other is the actual lifespan. The former is the lifespan given by the law of operation of the world, which is a value that cannot be changed, because once it is changed, the law of operation of the world will also be ****, and the latter is the actual lifespan of the living body.

Natural lifespan is the theoretical lifespan given to living beings by the laws of the world, but it also allows for accidents and accidents. Most people or things will not live to the day when their natural life ends, after all, who has not had a natural or man-made disaster, and it is not uncommon for them to die one moment in the last moment.

And the moment the agent of death officially becomes the agent of death walking in the world, he has the ability to take the difference between the natural life span of others and the actual life span, and can use one-twentieth of it to nourish his own life. The actual lifespan of an ordinary person cannot exceed the natural lifespan, but the agent of the god of death can, and if he has enough lifespan, he can live forever.

Let's put it this way, in the eyes of the Grim Reaper and the Grim Reaper's agent, the natural lifespan is just a measure of the time you should get after using the Codex to kill someone, and it has no practical meaning.

"And what about the other nineteen out of twenty...... Forget it, if you don't say it, I know where to go. Where are you the Grim Reaper, it's a combination of Sherlock and Grande! Luo Hao sighed.

Xia Ke "snapped" and slapped Luo Hao's head again, and snorted dissatisfiedly: "Don't think that I can't hear you scolding me around the corner!" I know more about the development of human civilization than you think!! ”

"Sooner or later, I want you to look good!"

Luo Hao muttered quietly.

Shak didn't care about his small movements in the slightest, and continued, "In addition, this Death Codex has some other uses. Well, that's a rule that the Grim Reaper specially added for showing compassion to the agent. After all, the needs of agents are also diverse, and there are many people who don't want to live longer but want to live wonderfully. The Reaper Agent can exchange the Codex for the Grim Reaper's abilities, and the Reaper uses it to reclaim the Agent's lifespan. ”

Luo Hao said helplessly: "In other words, I want to collect my life by killing other creatures, and then exchange my accumulated life for the opportunity for you to take me out of this world, right?" ”

"Well, you're right, I think I'm very clear." Shak smiled proudly.
