"Actually, before the Shadow Dragon appeared, we had a plan. All of this was based on the three of us' research on the black spectrum and the related time rules, originally in order to reduce the time flow rate of those origin worlds and maintain the stability of the entire universe, and I went to borrow the materials of the world generator as one of the steps. Of course, this scheme can also be used against Shadow Dragons. ”

Zhao Mai, Iluvita, and the old man gave Soka a science popularization and described the plan in detail. The plan is divided into two parts, one is to use the Creation World Generator to restart all the origin worlds again, and the second step is to use the "stagnant" black spectrum in the internal network to connect with the "black spectrum" of all origin worlds, so that everyone can achieve a completely uniform time flow rate.

"The headquarters of the Ring Alliance is used as a point, and the old man is here as another point, using two benchmarks to adjust the lifespan of the multiverse. Whether it is the old world or the new world in the future, everyone will develop at the same rate and die at the same time. Zhao Mai cleared his throat and said, "Since the internal network is not a world, it will still be there at that time, which is enough to become a refuge for various civilizations." As long as the multiverse can develop steadily for a long time, the next cycle can be opened by the fusion of the original forces, and the civilization of the internal network shelter can also develop again at that time. ”

"Is that okay?" Soka looked at the old man, trying to get an answer from him. The old man rarely did not answer, but covered his mouth with his hand and slowly combed his beard.

Illuvita snapped her fingers and immediately said, "The old man alone can't do it, I need to do some work—being a creator god transcendent always has some additional benefits." I can control the work of the Creation World Generator to achieve the desired results. And, as long as the internal network can always connect to those origin worlds, I will be able to suppress all secondary creations and prevent the Templar of Nakus from messing with generators, ensuring that the desired effect is maintained. ”

"My mission is to hold the Shadow Dragon until the entire multiverse reboots—and, of course, all of the Templars of Nakuth. Zhao Mai shrugged his shoulders: "I'm not sure if this can be done yet, maybe I'll be beaten down soon." Of course, there may be better news, such as when new detached people appear, relying on the intranet, they can come to my aid and relieve my stress - especially if they can manipulate the rules of time. It's a very risky approach, but it's a way to do it. We can't kill the Shadow Dragon, but the multiverse is really going to be destroyed and restarted, and there is nothing to do with the Shadow Dragon. Hehe, it's really strong, but there's going to be nowhere to show it, and it's weird!"

"You're fighting for your life!!" The old man finally spoke, "That shadow dragon is not worth ......"

Zhao Mai interjected with two "hehe", and then said, "Teacher, I don't care if it's worth it or not." The Shadow Dragon is by far the greatest threat and challenge to the multiverse, and there is nothing more than this to stimulate the evolutionary momentum of life! I've been worried about running out of things since I've been immortal, and now there's one thing that can last for the same amount of time as I do. Moreover, excluding other objective reasons, if I don't do this and can't do my best when I can, I will not be able to get over it in my heart. ”

"You...... You can't stand it, you know?" said the old man suddenly.

"Of course not. My current data - appearance, brain, etc. - are very average, but I can't kill and I am very powerful in both aspects, this is obviously the template of the protagonist! I will not give up a good protagonist template to become a villain, what a loss!" Zhao Mai said with both hands on the back of his head.

"It's better to have a plan than not to have a plan. Sokka said, "I've figured it out, if the Shadow Dragon reaches the Alliance headquarters, everything will be ruined. Elemental networks, intranets, or anything else are just as wasted. So, if you want to use the intranet, you can use it, and at least it can save the whole world once. ”

"It's going to save the world. Zhao Mai rubbed his hands and said. "Soka, apart from Device Zero, does the Ring Alliance have any other killer features? The Shadow Dragon is determined to win the Alliance Headquarters, I don't understand why, but it certainly won't be a good thing. I mean, if the three mages of the past have any means left, now is the time to use them. ”

Sokka shook his head. If only Lynch and Siegel could show up and kill the shadow dragon. But...... Where are they? Soka has called on the resources of the Ring Alliance more than once to look for them, and has found many clues, but after tracking down, he finds that the clues lead to nothing.

"Oh, that's right...... Do you know what's going on in the Ring Alliance headquarters space?" Zhao Mai said, "I found that the end of that space is Nakus. ”

From Soka's wide-eyed expression, she knew that she didn't know, so Zhao Mai said: "The location of the headquarters, various rules are very active, I think they should have been brought from the internal network or from the elemental passage channel. But in the distance, all rules are dying, like plants withering, especially outside the boundaries. I was only two or three paces away from the rest of the earth, and I almost died from the rapid loss of energy. ”

"The Shadow Dragon is unaffected in that environment, and I suspect it was born from that environment, but I haven't found any tangible evidence yet, and I don't know how it suddenly appeared close to the Alliance headquarters. Zhao Mai finally said: "Standing on the boundary of the soil, relying on the ability to distinguish the black spectrum, looking into the distance, there is the presence of Nakusi in a dead black background. The earth fell into the void of Naykos at the edge of the world. ”

"The Ring Alliance has sent expeditions into the depths of space on several occasions, partly out of curiosity, and partly out of suspicion that the Three Mages might be hiding far beyond the horizon. Most of these expeditions didn't make it back alive, and a few who returned said they still saw the endless wilderness—none of them made it to where you say they were. Soka frowned: "I only know that this space was found by Siegel among the three mages, and he said that this world should have been destroyed, but he happened to save it." There will be no gods here, and there will be no more world will, which can be used just in time. And the original population has moved out, and it is easy to deal with everything empty. ”

"The world that should have been destroyed and being targeted by Naykos should mean the same thing...... I wonder how Siegel managed to get it out. Zhao Mai looked at the old man and Iluvita, and the two of them also said that they couldn't think of it.

"I can go and look up the earliest information. Soka finally regained some fighting spirit, and she stood up and said, "I can't help with the battle, but the knowledge and materials that the Ring Alliance has accumulated over the years should always come in handy." It is impossible for that shadow dragon to be without weaknesses, and even if it is not now, it may be able to find the answer from the past. ”

"Well, that's a good way to do that, too. Zhao Mai pinched his chin and said in a strengthened tone: "Although I can't directly influence a strong person like the Shadow Dragon - except for the key points like finding a foot - maybe I can find some way to limit him, hopefully." ”

"Well, at least for now, we're hopeful. Soka nodded: "Zhao Mai, if you still have to fight the Shadow Dragon, if you need anything, the alliance can prepare it for you." ”

Everyone sent Soka away, and then sat down on the long steps in front of the gate of Hakkeigu Palace. The three of them didn't know why they were sitting here, but they all had such an "impulse". The Queen of Blades felt that the atmosphere was a little awkward, so she poked Zhao Mai's back with her bone wings. Zhao Mai glanced back at her, squeezed his eyebrows, and said that he also felt very strange and didn't know what to do.

"There have been a lot of bumps along the road. The old man suddenly said, "I still remember that after I became a detached person, many people came to congratulate me and ask for advice. From the door plaque to the mountain gate, there are people all the way. But after a catastrophe, it was empty. ”

"You're talking about the Romance of the Gods, right?" Zhao Mai said tentatively in a low voice.

"It's a romance, it's dramatic. But the real catastrophe is not drama, not chic and graceful, not making a fuss, not even artistic creation. The Apocalypse is always bloody and full of violence, death, madness, and all things negative. The old man said: "In the romance, it is said that as long as you can survive the catastrophe, you will have a harvest, but I have experienced several catastrophes, but I don't have the slightest feeling of this." I never think that putting my friends who are alive in the past into the list of gods is like taking pictures of people, and this can be regarded as a reward!"

Iluvita didn't understand what the Gods was, but her instincts told him it wasn't a good thing. Zhao Mai didn't dare to ask specifically, he felt that the old man was full of anger now, and the next target of anger was very likely to be himself.

He underestimated the old man. "This catastrophe is coming again, and I'd rather be the one who is missing this time than be unfortunate enough to fall on someone else's head. Anyway, no one left the stone steps, and the house was empty. The old man put his hand on Zhao Mai's shoulder: "I don't know if you can succeed when you go, and I don't know if you will meet again." I know you've made up your mind, but I hope you'll give it a second thought. ”

Zhao Mai shook his head: "Teacher, you have to go, because you can't beat it." I've fought the shadow dragon, and I know best what was going on. I had a slight advantage in this battle, and maybe I could have an advantage next time, but the advantage will always disappear. That bastard is a detached from the black spectrum, which means he's sure he'll be able to learn all the applications of the black spectrum! he's just become a detached and still a novice who can't fully master all the rules. And the three of us researched something happened to take advantage of it and caught him off guard. When he comes back to his senses and ponders slowly, he will soon be able to learn. ”

"That's what worries me. Iluvita nodded: "Zhao Mai is right, as long as it is related to Heipu, it won't take long for the Shadow Dragon to figure it out." Including how Zhao Mai hurt it, even it can use the blue flame itself! Moreover, it is now faltering and can only move slowly, but it will one day be able to swim in the black spectrum, and it will not be too difficult to travel through space in an instant. I have a hunch that the Shadow Dragon wants to go to the Alliance HQ, if not for Device Zero, then for the internal network. Its target must be the entire multiverse, everywhere!"

"Therefore, I must go back in time and eradicate its roots. Zhao Mai said to the old man: "In the process of destroying its body, I touched its core a little. That guy used to be a dragon, and he had ordinary days, and he could be killed, as long as he traveled far enough in time! Soka had figured out its roots, time and place. Even if there was no Ring Alliance at that time, I could find it with the ability to tear through space and reset it all!"

"As long as time travel is far enough......," the old man stroked his beard and said, "Without the help of the Origin Power and the Transcendent, your method of time travel with the help of the Black Spectrum is very innovative, but is it feasible? The Black Spectrum does have the ability to compress time, its rules are more monotonous than the Origin Power, and the difficulty of passing will be less, but I always feel that things will not be so simple." Zhao Mai, I only ask you to face up to the risks, and you can't do anything you are not sure of no matter what!"

"I've already been through time travel, this time just a little further. Zhao Mai spread his hands and said with a smile: "Anyway, my lifespan is almost unlimited, and I have the ability to transform the world." As long as you can bring the whole family with you this time, it doesn't make much difference when the knight lives. Even if I stopped halfway and didn't get back to my destination, it was equivalent to gaining a certain amount of time, and I wouldn't lose anything. ”

"No, you either don't do it, you have to succeed if you do it. The old man said, "You only have one chance to use the Black Spectrum to time travel, and then the shadow dragon will soon learn it by virtue of its status as a transcendent." Everything depends on your subjective sense of time, and when you go back in time, you have to eradicate it immediately to turn everything around. If the Shadow Dragons followed suit, or had the same ability to time travel, then the Universe would be even worse than it is now. ”

Zhao Mai nodded, keeping this in mind. The most troublesome thing about the Shadow Dragon as an enemy is that only the abilities related to the rules of the black spectrum can hurt it, but at the same time, as a detached person from the black spectrum, it can always learn all the abilities related to the rules of the black spectrum, so Zhao Mai's means will always be exhausted one day. Technically, the Shadow Dragon "inevitably" won—it didn't lie to Zhao Mai.

The rules of the black spectrum are very monotonous, and there is no room for two detached people. The Shadow Dragon had taken its place, and no one could squeeze it down. However, the Shadow Dragon's own complete emotions and personality gave Zhao Mai a chance to take advantage of it, and he turned his arm into a scarf, which suddenly frightened the Shadow Dragon, making it think that Zhao Mai could also become the second Black Spectrum Transcendent.

"Time waits for no one, let's act first. Zhao Mai had to finish the arrangement before the shadow dragon came back to his senses. "Let that stupid dragon stay at the Alliance headquarters for the time being, and have no time to care about the black spectrum of the other worlds. Soka gave us the intranet, so let's quickly connect the black spectrum of the entire multiverse and build a super slingshot for time travel!"
