Márquez's consciousness was indeed asleep due to exhaustion, and the Nightmare Merlin took the opportunity to coerce Sheldon to make his inner choice. In fact, Nightmare knows that even if he is not the driving force, he will make a predestined choice......

The kid actually woke up while Sheldon was eating, but Nightmare said to tell him something about gaining powers, so he listened to the aroma of the creamy soup.

Fortunately, Sheldon didn't make a lot of noise when he sipped the soup, otherwise Merlin's saliva would have stayed.

"The ability of the pupil of Diddama is to control time, and the most intuitive content is to view and manipulate the [Timeline], note that you are only pulling the time of an object or creature, not any other state of movement, this needs to be clarified." Nightmare still plans to explain this ability to Márquez in detail, "In addition to making something change back to its appearance in a short period of time, it can also speed up or slow down the time of an item." It's similar to a normal spring, how long you slow down an item or creature, and how much you slow down the multiplier, how much it will speed up at the same rate for the same amount of time after that. To put it more intuitively, if a stone falls on top of your head, you pull its time line to slow down the flow of time for a while, and if you walk through the falling stone for one second, then the stone will fall faster in the next second. ”

"If you let it hit me on the top of my head......"

"The force with which it hits you doesn't change, it's exactly the same as it was at the beginning. That's right, it's simply time that manipulates the distortion of the thread of time, not any other concept. Vice versa. Nightmare continued, "The Pupil of Diddama also includes other abilities, which are more abstract and complex, and I will only say it once, you have to listen well. ”

"By the way, why are there so many flowers in my space?" Only then did Márquez discover that there were a lot of black and white flowers in his soul space, "What's the point of them...... Just to look good? There's no need for it......"

If the nightmare had an entity, it would have rolled its eyes a long time ago: "Of course not, the black flower is the flower of lies, Mo Xi; The white one is the flower of extradition, and the desert is a symbol of the power of the pupil of Didama itself. The flowers created by my own abilities can effectively stabilize the abilities you have acquired, and the two are mutually reinforcing. Moreover, the white flowers themselves have a lot to do with the more interesting abilities you gain. ”

"Every time you tell a pure lie, a white flower blooms in your soul space, and you can use it to observe what happened in the past at a certain time, and the length of this time is determined by the effect of the lie. The more potent your lie is, the longer the observable period of time in the past. Every time you tell the truth, but achieve the effect equivalent to a lie, then a black flower will bloom in your soul space, and it will take you back to the past, and the amount of time you go back to time is also determined by the effect achieved by this truth. ”

"How do you use it...... Márquez didn't quite understand these strange abilities, "it sounds complicated, and it'...... What does it mean to tell the truth, but to achieve the effect of a lie......"

"It's up to you to experience it yourself, I'm just deconstructing the message in the rune and telling it to you. There's more complicated one, and I'm not done yet. Each flower that blooms with every lie can be used five times, so there is basically no need to worry about running out of flowers here, but you can't use it indiscriminately. Xi Mo and Mo Xi themselves are homologous, both are five petals, but they are contradictory. Nightmare's words are obviously composed of one word, but I always feel more and more incomprehensible, "Every time I use my ability, a petal will fall from the corresponding flower, and this will be counted." You can't go back to a point in time that is beyond your means. ”

"What if some facts change because of my actions?"

Nightmare seems to appreciate the little boy's intelligence: "You don't look that stupid either. You'll have to listen to the rules for the rest. Time itself has a very complex set of runic laws, in short, it is self-correcting. Going back to the very recent past is actually equivalent to going back in time with your own memories, and you are equivalent to having a second chance. Five minutes ago, someone was killed, and you wore it back to prevent the murder from happening, because the interval between the time point is very short, so the probability of correction is very small, and the space-time distortion is close to none. ”

"What if it's five days, five months, or even five years?"

"That's a good question!" "The premise is that we have enough to go back five days, and in general, it's hard to go back five days. Assuming that we have overcome this difficulty and delusionally go back in time to change a fact, or the truth, a strong distortion of time and space will swallow us up in an instant. Like the lead words erased by an eraser, our bodies, our time, our destinies, and even our existence and concepts disappear from this world. ”

"Really....... It's horrible! Márquez exclaimed, "So in the end, will the facts really change?" ”

"There are a few more things you need to know before that. Time is independent of space, and there is a special rune law composition in this world, which is also linked to other rune laws, the most classic of which is [Fate]. When you change the facts, you change the cause and effect. Even if time itself does not make corrections, fate itself will not allow such things to happen. Unless it is the power of God, it is basically impossible, and at the same time that the bamboo basket is empty, you and I will become an untold lie and disappear into the rift between time and space. ”

"God...... Is He omnipotent? ”

Nightmare smiled and asked, "Isn't He the one who created the world omnipotent?" ”

"......" Márquez was speechless.

"So, there's a few more things I need to explain to you before I can use this ability. There are optional events in history, as well as inevitable events, and you can judge whether to go back in time based on this. ”

Now Márquez is about to faint.

"The revision of space-time itself is very abstract. Let's make another hypothesis, assuming that a person's death has no effect on the world, and that you can choose to save him. In this state, if you save him, the result is the same as if you don't save him, and the impact of going back to the past is about negligible, and you can let it go. The problem is that if you want to change a Probability Event, you're in trouble. ”

"A probabilistic event is something that has a probability of happening at a particular time period, and if you change that fact, space-time will make very interesting corrections to that event. Going back to the hypothesis, if you save someone who has a high probability of dying during this time period, then the laws of time and space will create other events that will cause him to die again. Of course, you can 'straighten' this correction by working tirelessly. "Nightmares seem to have a lot more to say.

"Is there still a [necessity]?"

"That's right, in this case, no matter how much effort you put in, there is only one end for this brother, death." Merlin quipped, "It's a headache that you have to rely on your own actions to determine the types of these three events. In this process, a series of painful reciprocating loops are inevitably created. ”

"Hopefully we'll never have to deal with these things...... I barely understood what you said above, but I barely ......"

"Haha, the fundamental power of the Pupil of Diddama is the true eye that can see through the present, the future, and all hypocrisy will be hidden in front of Him. Ironically, however, this ability itself is also creating inevitable, seemingly true, and logical lies in disguise. Nightmare abruptly reverted back to the subject, "Oh yes, there are two more very important abilities that I haven't told you about. ”

"Really...... It's too much trouble. I'm really hungry right now. Márquez manipulated Merlin's body and began to interact with Sheldon, "You can eat while listening to what you have to say, to be honest." You can do it in batches. ”

"Alas......." Merlin sighed and said sullenly, "young people are never patient, and young nightmares have long been eaten by me. ”

"You're also inevitably getting younger." Márquez teased.

"Ho! It's just back to basics! Merlin protested, "Listen to me!" Don't chirp when eating! ”

Merlin obediently took the spoon Sheldon handed him and swallowed a mouthful of the hot soup.

"One more thing to add, because you are now beyond the scope of the existing time, all the lies you have told before will also be recorded by the soul space and bloom flowers, as evidenced by the flowers stored in the soul space now." Nightmare didn't get angry, "It's the last one!" Give me a good listen! ”

"I'm listening!" Márquez's voice was like a lot of food in his mouth.

His mouth was indeed stuffed with a soft bread core.

"You can consume a Moshi and a Momo to create another you that will exist for a while, and you can choose one of them to become the future you. During this period of time, the two causes and effects that you have formed will be forcibly equaled, even if they may not seem so equal. The moment you choose to start, another cause and effect that you caused will disappear and become another cause and effect in your desired time. You can simply think of him as your doppelganger, because people in this one plane will indeed see both of you. ”

"Will the soul be copied in two? When there are two identical 'I'' at the same time. ”

"That's right. As for the specific effect, I admit that it is difficult to explain, so it is never too late to see when it comes to using it. Nightmare said categorically.

Black and white flowers instantly grew in the soul space belonging to Merlin, adding a lot of beauty to this somewhat lonely space.
