"The next 30 years were the 30 years with the fastest research progress and the happiest 30 years for me. Fira leaned back in her chair and looked out of the transparent crystal window, as if she had fallen into a memory: "In the past thirty years, I have made myself a little younger every year, and the other time and resources I have gained have been used to carry out a lot of practical activities. I've used these thirty years to make two breakthroughs, and as you can see, I can make five of myself appear in different locations at the same time. But that's when I stopped researching for a while. ”

Pannis frowned, deliberately ignoring the source of the time resources consumed by Fira in the past thirty years, not counting how many lives these resources represented, but sighed softly and said, "Is it because the consumption is too great?"

"There is also a reason for this, at that time it was almost a thousand to one consumption, but as long as you don't use it regularly in your daily life, it's fine. Phila shook her head and said: "The key is that I am not going to continue to make more attempts to separate, I have already carried out the research of knowledge in this area to the apex, and then continue, but it is just a repetitive operation, and there is not much meaning." Therefore, since about 50 years ago, I have been conducting more in-depth research with the time of fragmentation as the breakthrough point. ”

"More delvement?" Pannis asked, "For example, do you turn back time?"

"That's the problem now, and it's my last hurdle. Phila shook her head and said, "At that time, I hadn't gone deep enough to go this far, and my first research was only about the application of my own time. Fifty years ago, when I stopped researching myself, I began to study the impact on the outside world. ”

"Like Victor?" asked Pannis, "Is it possible to control the flow of time in some areas?"

"Yes, that's what he learned from my notes. Phila nodded: "First of all, on the basis of not changing his time flow rate, change the time state of a certain item, let it change, and then I can make a piece of meat deteriorate within five seconds and finally turn into dirt." It can also be left fresh after a month, as if it had just been cut. Once this has been done, turn to the regionalization of this technique to slow down or speed up the flow of time throughout the region. By the end of the day, I was able to make an entire field ripen in a day, or a large area of grassland to wither in the blink of an eye. ”

"Very good way to apply. Pannis said with admiration: "If it is really applied to civilian use, I am afraid that it can play a decisive role in promoting the development of the Yala world, but unfortunately, the cost is also very large." ”

"Oh, of course. Fira chuckled and said, "Every change in the flow of time over a large area is enough to turn a middle-aged mage into a dying old man. If his original lifespan was not enough, I am afraid that he would have died of old age halfway through the spell. Therefore, it is impossible for this kind of magic to be used on a large scale, unless the user has eternal life like the gods and can squander their time at will. ”

"Actually, this technique is also the inspiration you got from that magic circle. Referring to the problems related to the circle, Pannis said with a somewhat awkward face: "It sounds very similar. It's just that one is for range and one is for creatures. ”

The same can be said. When it comes to the knowledge related to time magic, Fira's nature seems to be very high, and she nodded: "But that magic circle was for me at the time. It was so profound that I could only be inspired by his effects, but not really understand him. Later, when I was able to do the things I just mentioned, I went back to study the circle. I can finally understand most of the content. Oh, then I finally knew why I could only get less than a tenth of the harvest after using the circle. Except for the loss between the aliens, most of the time is spent on providing the consumption of the circle. It's no wonder that the circle consumes very little time to use itself, and it is all provided by the sacrifices in the circle. ”

"Sacrifice, hey, sacrifice. Pannis chewed on the word repeatedly and said with a wry smile, "It seems that you really have the heart to break the line between mortals and gods." ”

"Of course. Fila said with certainty: "There are no gods in the world about the rules of time, so some of the beliefs about time will naturally be concentrated on me after I have thoroughly mastered the rules of time, and I can use this energy to regularize myself and become a new god." Therefore, I do not lack pan-believers, I also have many devout believers, and the only thing I lack now is that I am still short of the rules of time, and the last fortress has not been breached. ”

"About time retrograde?" asked Pannis, "what you said you were working on right now?"

"Yes, by ten years ago, I found that my research was stuck again, and this time there was no room for any progress. Phila said with great regret: "The normal rules of time, I have almost completely seen through, except that because I want to seize the time of the living, I will be disturbed by the life energy and cannot succeed, so I can only use that set of magic circles to bypass the life energy, the rules of time almost have no secrets for me anymore, but I found that even if I master these, there is still a large secret in the depths of time that is closed to me." According to my reasoning, this area should not be difficult, it should be easy for me to break through, but in the last ten years, I have stood on the edge of these secrets almost every day, but there is always a final obstacle that prevents me from excavating these secrets, as long as I break through this barrier, I can achieve complete success. ”

"So, in the last few years, you have changed your previous cautious style and frantically collected time, just for this purpose?" The smile on Pannis's face gradually disappeared, and he squinted his eyes and asked, "Accumulate enough time reserves, and then use these reserves to break through this barrier at once?"

"Like, time is a very abstract thing, and obstacles are abstract things, but if you explain it into a theory that you can understand, it will be similar to what you said. Phila nodded: "However, in fact, to break through the last obstacle, I have two conjectures, this is only one of them, and it is only the one with a small probability of the two conjectures, probably only one in ten of the possibility of success." (To be continued.) )
