Chapter 508: The Paradox of Time
Mark's actions were as efficient as ever, and as soon as he made a plan, he led the elves into action.
After three hours, the number of inhabitants of the robber camp after the interrogation had increased from 253 to 87, and the rest had been burned to ashes and buried in the snowy mountains by Mark and the elves.
Subsequently, the entire camp of the robbers was covered by a fire and burned.
In the darkness of the night, a young boy fled the bandit camp in a panic led by several villagers.
It was the young Laika, and the villagers who fled the village with Laika were the few people in the village who had not done anything bad.
After being interrogated by a memory potion, Mark tampered with some of their memories and released them.
The men then leave with the young Laika, and the climate in the permafrost gets colder and colder for decades to come, and finally after a few decades, the middle-aged Laika returns to the snowfield in search of the legendary King of Fertility......
"Mark, why do you want to take Laika away and burn this place, just let the Lei Guanwang help, and bury Uncle Laika in Qingxi Village?"
Although he acted according to Mark's instructions, Kira Qi didn't understand why he did it, and so did the little dream on the side.
In fact, not only Kira and Dream, but also Billen, Green Caterpillar, Rabi, and Hogg, the snow insect catcher, are all very confused.
Among them, the confusion of the snow insect catcher boy Hogg is even more.
Because, the camp of Big Brother Phyllis of Hogg was also raided by Mark.
The animal trainers and elves who were planning to attack the bandits' dens were all asleep at this time.
Now that Mark has already taken action against this bandit den, isn't it good for everyone to do it together?
As for the middle-aged Laika himself, he was not puzzled by this.
Because after thinking about it for a while, he secretly poured a memory potion on himself, and he had forgotten everything at this time.
"You can't do that."
Mark looked at the puzzled elves around him, and then at the Thunder Crown King.
"Because, the paradox of time." Mark pointed to Laika, a young boy who was fading away in the night, and said, "The Laika we rescued in the past is a middle-aged man, but what will happen if he becomes a frozen child in the future and is dug out of the foot of the mountain by us?" ”
Kira Qi blinked, looking a little confused.
Mi Yang on the side realized something: "I know, Uncle Laika will disappear, because Uncle Laika's past has changed, and without those things that happened later, then he would be gone." ”
Kira Qi and Dream exclaimed, if this is the case, doesn't it mean that they have indirectly killed Uncle Laika here?
Mark gently touched the heads of the two little ones, and continued to explain Miyan's words: "Laika's disappearance is just the result of the paradox of time.
The real paradox is that we have taken a time travel that would not have happened and could not have happened.
If we hadn't encountered the frozen Laika when we were catching the ghostly horse, how would we have gone back to 3,000 years ago to do what we are doing now? ”
Kira Qi suddenly said, "Yes, if we hadn't met the frozen Laika at that time, we wouldn't have been able to travel back here, and we wouldn't have a reason to come here......"
Little Dream nodded continuously: "Miyo, Miyo!" ”
Mark said: "So, if we freeze the little Laika there directly, then after we return to the future, in addition to the middle-aged Laika will disappear, there will be a time bug in our world." ”
Mark narrowed his eyes and frowned, "I don't know what the impact will be after the bug appears, but there are some speculations that it may have some bad effects on the stability of the world we are in, and it may also create some chaotic space and cause some disasters."
If it's like Miyang in the No. 1 parallel world, in order to change the direction of the world, it would be okay to stop his father, and the price can be bearable.
What we are doing now is just a small matter that has nothing to do with the historical process, so it is better not to cause a space-time paradox, lest our act of saving Laika indirectly lead to a greater disaster. ”
Mark said, gently touching Rabbi's head.
"I also gradually figured out all this after traveling through time and space, so when you help others travel through time and space in the future, you should try to be as cautious as possible, I know that you have a good heart, but good intentions can sometimes lead to disasters."
"Pull?"
The rabbi blinked, his face dazed, and he fell into deep thought with the elves.
However, it was the green caterpillar that constantly transformed from the [Chrysalis of the Primordial] and the [Chrysalis of the End] that figured everything out first.
"Hiss, hiss?"
So Mark set fire to the robber village also to restore the fire in Uncle Laika's memory?
Mark smiled: "Yes, we have to restore everything in Laika's memory as much as possible, so that there will be no space-time paradoxes, bugs, and we will temporarily stun Phyllis and the group of animal trainers because of this."
Normally, little Laika will run away with more of his clansmen, and now that all of his powerful clansmen have been killed or frozen by us, it is very likely that little Laika will die under the pursuit of Phyllis and them. ”
After Mark finished speaking, he looked at the King of Abundance, who had always been silent, and said, "Is there anything I said missing?" ”
The Thunder Crown didn't speak, just stared directly at little Laika's fading shadow.
Buzz –
With a roar, a set of images appeared in Mark's mind again, which was the future that the Thunder Crown King was looking at.
In the future, little Laika will live a peaceful life on the outskirts of the snowfield, and then as the weather gets colder, the middle-aged Laika will go to the depths of the snowfield to continue the journey to find the Thunder Crown......
The image in my mind played for a long time, but the real time was only a moment.
"Looks like it's fine." Mark turned his head to look at Rabbi and asked, "It stands to reason that we can continue planeswalking now, but I want to stay here for a while, and how long we can stay here." ”
The rabbi came back to his senses and quickly began to feel.
According to everyone's original willingness to travel through time and space, Uncle Laika's will was the strongest, Kira Qi was second, Mijan and Mark were almost third, and Green Caterpillar and Dream were last, and everyone could probably stay for about three days at that time.
At this time, Mark's willingness to travel through time and space has come to the first place, and this desire is very strong, and he can probably stay for about ten days.
"Pull-beep, pull-beep~"
The rabbi was quick to give the answer.
"In that case, let's stay here for another ten days, and do some actual combat training by the way." Mark said and looked at Hogg, the snow insect catcher who was looking around not far away: "Meeting is fate, do you want to come with us?" ”
"Huh? Yes, I want to be together! ”
Although he didn't understand what the legendary beast tamer was saying, Hogg nodded very quickly......
