396. Old Thing!
"Yanan's time loop, do you know what the situation is?"
Lann's surprise showed on his face.
He had imagined many situations, such as rummaging through the legends of the ancient gods in the mountains of old papers, and finally finding a clue about the ancient gods of 'time'.
Or when he was looking for the truth of the time loop, the human believer of the old gods took the initiative to come to the door and ask him to stop this blasphemous act, and then fight with blood.
The only thing I didn't think about was that the answer came so easily!
"Ah, I know, I'm a little surprised right now."
The old man whispered plainly, without waves.
"The superior who causes the time loop is a 'spider', and the web woven by the 'spider' can trap time and even turn back time. My student, Roma, trusted me with all his heart, so I was able to help him become a 'spider' who could hold the net. ”
"As a result, he is the same as Carlisle's rune, the crowning masterpiece of Byron Weis's research."
Lan En listened to the words of the old man in front of him in a daze.
Under the stunned exterior, the emotions of surprise have surged like a stormy wave.
"You're saying you've made your students time in control. Old Gods? ”
Lane's surprise was that he had actually drunk at the same table with an otherworldly demon who could pause time in the past.
He clearly knows how outrageous this ability is.
But now, an old man who is dying of old age said lightly that he has 'created' a 'god' who can manipulate time!
"But why are you?"
The young man asked, confused.
"Why are you letting your student, that 'spider', restart Yanan's time over and over again?"
Lane decided to put his word for fear at Master William's words, and he had discovered it along the way.
The world in which Yanan lives may even have a cosmological view that is very different from the world he has been to in the past, and it is better not to take a negative attitude towards the creation of ancient gods by human beings too early.
But there should always be some reason for the laborious act of letting your students control time again and again, right?
"Because the ritual requires a special moon phase, and if you want to stop all the rituals, you have to stop the moon phase from changing."
"The old gods all longed for their own children, and once those rituals continued tonight, the flesh of the gods would be inevitable."
Receiving flesh refers to the act of receiving flesh in the human world by super-material gods. The birth of the Son of God is also a type of flesh.
"The gods want the Son of God, that sounds understandable, why are you trying so hard to stop them?"
Lan En still had a question.
And Master William seems to be patient.
Come to think of it, his students have been able to control their time, and patience is limitless to him.
"The gods are all longing for the Son of God, but at the same time they are jealous and hateful of the old gods who can get the Son of God. If one of the old gods succeeded, then Yanan would not get liberation, but many old gods would have cursed like crazy. Because the Yanan people helped other ancient gods get their own children. ”
So either let all the old gods get the Son of God, or let all the old gods not get the Son of God.
And considering that the ritual of the birth of the Son of God must have been very complicated, the second option is undoubtedly the most suitable.
Lann somewhat understood the meaning of Master William making time repeat.
"So why do you say, 'If I want to end the time loop, just jump from here'? Shouldn't you avoid getting the cycle broken? ”
Lan En's brow furrowed slightly.
The cycle of time lies in the 'spider' that nets time, and if it is only necessary to say a word to break this cycle, Master William should not have a place to use himself.
That is, to get hands-on?
The old man's quiet voice paused for a moment before continuing.
"Go and kill Rom, Outlander. The night and the nightmare were too long. ”
"You want me to kill your students? Not to mention whether I have the ability to kill an old god, but do you really want to kill the student who became an old god for your orders? ”
"Yes. Kill Him. ”
All hesitation seemed to have been overcome in the silence just now, and the old man's soft tone did not pause in the slightest.
"The consciousness of being a human being has disappeared in the process of becoming a superior being, and Rohm's becoming a 'spider' is not a sign of the success of Byron Weis's theory, he is only a stage verification of the results of a research, so he has not been able to retain his consciousness. The cycle of time is just the inertia left over from when you were still human. ”
"So, if you want to get out of the loop, you have to kill him."
"You have the power to kill Him, stranger. As long as you see Him, you will know that the power of the Old Gods is great, but they will still be killed. will be killed by you. ”
Lan En looked at the old man suspiciously, his hands on his chest to show his distrust and resistance.
"You still haven't explained to me why you decided to open the time loop now. How many times has this cycle been going on, and why are you opening it this time? ”
The old man didn't reply, he just dangled in his rocking chair, his scepter pointing to the great moon beyond the terrace.
And under the moon, the dark waters of the lake.
Lan En suddenly had a bad feeling.
Wait, how long has it been since Henrik spoke?
Where did he go?
Realizing this, Lan suddenly felt the emptiness under his feet, and gravity captured his body, causing him to fall downward.
Glance at your feet, where else are the terraces?
I didn't know what was going on, and I walked out of the terrace!
At the last moment of the fall, Lan En turned his head to look behind him, and the old man in the rocking chair was already holding his scepter and lying quietly.
"You son of a bitch. Woo! ”
This old guy is playing yin with his [spiritual vision]!
Without even shouting the last three words 'old fellow', Lan En fell directly to the surface of the lake.
But when the witcher was ready to accept the impact of falling into the water, he suddenly realized that he had only passed through a film of water, and then continued to fall.
After crossing the lake, it fell about ten meters and a strange surface of the lake appeared in front of me.
Lan En still didn't fall into the water, and the lake surface was so calm that it was a little weird, so he stood up directly!
There is no impact of falling, and there is no damage from falling.
It's as if the laws of physics don't apply here.
Except for the lake, everything is white.
Lan En didn't have time to hesitate, thinking that he was being thrown down by that old guy to fight against an old god.
Lan En immediately pulled out his potion combination from the alchemy leather bag on his back.
[Thunder], [Blizzard], [Swallow], [Maribo Forest].
The vial of the glassmaker's trait was drained in one go, and the toxicity of the four potions began to work in his body.
