Zhong Jianbai held his head, his fingers in his hair, and only raised his head again after a long sound. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 He looked at the screen, and then frowned: "Zhao Mai, when did you know that you could travel through other worlds? Can you say that it will be within two years or two years ago without telling me the specific date?"

Since the time difference is to be removed, only the time of the earth is calculated, so Zhao Mai replied: "In two years, what's wrong?"

"That's the problem. Zhong Jianbai said: "The old man will retrace the incident and eliminate the impact." If you go back two years, what happened backwards from that point in time wouldn't necessarily be the same as it is now. In other words, you may no longer be able to access the magic skills you currently have. It's not a big possibility, but it's there. ”

"Then if I go to other worlds, can I avoid it?"

"I don't know. Zhong Jianbai replied, "Except for the detachment and a few traversers, everyone else will be backtracked. Because the energy level of ordinary people is relatively low, they will basically not be greatly affected. For example, your parents and family will definitely not be affected by memory erasure anymore, and the basic trajectory is still not much different from the current one, but you may not be able to. I'll contact the old man for you, and be sure to ask clearly. ”

Zhao Mai thought more. The old man told him more than once to "rest well, and when he comes back there something important for him to do", does it have anything to do with this? If the transcendent really transcends time, then isn't everything that is happening now expected? Why let it happen? Is there some kind of script for the earth and other worlds, like Atas or Westeros?

Could it be that he was just another Jon Snow or the Witch King Karrak, whose fate had already been decided? I still remember the joy in the heart when the old man congratulated himself on taking the "first step", but now that I think about it, it may not be so simple. Zhao Mai waited with mixed feelings, as if waiting for the verdict to be announced, and every minute and second seemed to have become an ordeal.

All the text on the screen is gone, leaving only a decreasing number. "This is the normal living population on the planet," Zhong explains, "and this number can reflect the severity of each incident." I've only seen this in the records, and this is the first time I've experienced it myself. ”

"How do you know if you can't remember all of this when you go back in time?"

"The old man always leaves a detailed record of what happened and what went wrong. Zhong Jianbai sighed and said: "The last time the world looked back on history was the Cuban Missile Crisis. Nuclear wars and annihilations have already taken place around the world, only to be reset, and that time it was numbered six hundred and thirty-three, and this time it was six hundred and thirty-four. ”

"So many times?"

"Yes. I know you have doubts in your mind, and I did the same for the first time. But you must remember one thing: don't rush to conclusions, you must read and think more, many things can only be solved by time, and a small number of things cannot even be solved by time. ”

"I understand that this time it was the wizarding world that was in trouble, and it has become like this, and I can understand it when I go back in time. But why not stop it in advance, and doesn't it affect people's memories as well? Aren't the detached people very opposed to such a thing?"

"Let me explain it to you. The old man appeared in the room out of thin air. He nodded to Zhong Jianbai and motioned for him to stay and listen. "We have come to the conclusion that even if we foresee a disaster, we cannot prevent it from happening by our own will. Each of us will see too many possibilities, in countless worlds that exist at the same time, which is the diversity and the basis of true vitality and cosmic existence. We detached people also observe and learn in this diversity. If you change all the formulas in the world to 1=1 according to your own ideas, then where does 1+1 come from?"

"So you just let it happen?"

"We keep learning from our mistakes, staying with them, and then teaching. We don't interfere with listening or not listening, learning or not learning, doing or not doing. And I can rewind the event and give people a chance to do it all over again. The old man said, "It's tiring, but it's necessary." Progress is a good thing, but mistakes are also precious, and mistakes should not be considered necessarily bad. ”

"But those memories?"

"I'm not the only one who can turn back time, but I'm the only one who can make sure nothing goes wrong. And it's not a matter of memory, it's about human potential. The old man stroked his beard and said, "What we value is people's wisdom, creativity and development potential, especially a few detached people whose earliest state is human beings, and they are naturally very emotional. We unanimously agreed that we must not affect the future development of humankind, which is the highest criterion. ”

"If the knowledge of the universe is a blank sheet of paper, we transcendents are an ink dot on it, spreading and expanding, but more and more slowly. If there is no new addition, we will stop developing, and for us no change means death. The old man said, "We allow mistakes to happen, because that's also change." But we must correct things that seriously affect the next change, as was the case in this case of the Oblivion Charm in the wizarding world. ”

"Now I understand what you're doing. Zhao Mai nodded, "Thank you for telling me about these things." I think if I were also within the scope of time rewinding, there would be no need to know about these things at all, right? After all, as long as I go back in time, I will have no idea what has happened, unless I go to Zhong Jianbai to check the information this time. So the final question is, what do I need to do next?"

"I need you to go back in time and save something for me as insurance against accidents. The old man said, "This vote is very strange, and something happened that I didn't expect. On the one hand, I am interested, and on the other hand, I have to be cautious. ”

"Based on the results of the vote, I will go back two years to the world. But there will actually be eight people going back even earlier, in 1995. The Earth will be protected, while the wizarding world will not. These eight people will compete separately to change the trajectory of the wizarding world, thus determining the future belonging of the wizarding world. ”

The old man said it lightly, but Zhao Mai's heart was flooded with a monstrous wave: "Does this mean that I am one of these eight people?

"No, you're the ninth, and your role isn't to compete, you have another mission. On the one hand, you have to go back and live until now. On the other hand, see if you can do anything to prevent something like the Global Oblivion Curse from happening again. The old man said: "At this stage, you must not return to China, nor can you contact the relevant ministries and commissions, let alone disclose your relationship with the relevant ministries and commissions. You'll need to change your name and spend this time in a foreign country as an insurance measure to protect your present, and even protect me. You and those around you will have enough youth and longevity, and you can rest assured of that. ”

"I don't understand, why me?"

"First of all, you can grab someone else's crossing plan so that you don't have to be one of those 8 people and have the necessary conditions to go back. And you've taken the first step to be unique in your own multiverse. When time goes back, people like you have to avoid yourself. For example, if you appear on the return train at the same time half a day ago, doesn't that contradict the point that "you are the only one"? Therefore, you will not be backtracked without your consent, and you are the best person to preserve the current state of the world. But you can't take the initiative to go to yourself and deliberately create contradictions, at least not until you have the power of time. You will hurt yourself and seriously affect your potential. ”

"Do I have any other choice?"

"Yes. The old man said, "You can go now, go to any other world, and avoid backtracking." But then, from your family's point of view, these two years will be different, and now everything they have gained will definitely change. You might even have to deal with a history you've been missing for two years, and that could be a new timeline. The safest way is for you to go back to an earlier time, to strengthen but not affect this history, just as we transcendents will always go back to the earliest to strengthen our existence. My advice is that you need to do at least one time travel to find out what the hell time is. ”

Zhao Mai snorted heavily from his nose: "Actually, I don't have a choice, do I?"

"No, you do have a choice. The old man said, "You don't understand it now. But you've at least taken the first step, you can watch things unfold, and you have the potential to figure it out. (To be continued.) )
