Chapter 1199 Time Cycle Plane, Return to Sevington
Now that the choice has been made in his heart, Xia Duo no longer piques the appetite of others, but readily agrees:
"If Mr. Cliff insists that I am the 'Crimson Hero' in the prophecy, then I am willing to go to the ruins of the dream to explore, but I cannot guarantee whether I can find the so-called 'power of death'."
Although Xia Duo said that there was no guarantee of success, he at least agreed. Upon hearing such an answer, Cliff's eyes flashed with joy, and together with the previous excitement, it turned into a strange kind of enthusiasm.
At this moment, even the Rising Sun Scepter lying horizontally in front of his knees seemed to be affected by his state of mind, blooming with an uncertain glow.
He looked directly into Xia Duo's eyes, tried hard to control his tone, tried to be gentle, and said intimately:
"Lord Xia Duo can do his best. I believe that the Crimson Brave will definitely be able to find the power of death!"
"I hope so!"
Xia Duo nodded, and then decisively asked Cliff about the specific situation of the Dream Ruins. Although he guessed that it might be similar to the journey to the projection plane, it was still different after all.
The more you understand now, the more confident you will be in the past.
Regarding this question, Cliff did not hesitate at all, and even started to tell it in front of the Theremin father and son: "The Ruins of Dreams are a collection of countless projection planes, but they are not normal projection planes, but the remnants of projection planes.
Perhaps it could be called 'reverberation' or 'projection of projections'.
"The internal situation is also very different from the normal projection plane. Time does not flow down the river, but a very weird state occurs. When time reaches a key node, it will instantly return to the original state, and then
Start over and keep looping!
"It should be noted that this cycle is not infinite. When it reaches a certain limit, this projection plane will instantly dissolve and merge with the star realm.
"That is to say, the time left for you to explore is limited, and none of us can determine this specific time. You must seize the time!"
After listening to Cliff's introduction, Sha Duo suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of déjà vu. Isn't this the plot world of some infinite novels on earth?
Are all the ruins of Dreams filled with such things?
Or maybe the normal projection world can actually be recycled, just because their essence cannot withstand the dissolution of the star realm, or the internal history is too long to survive a cycle?
If this is the case, then if the civilization inside the projection plane wants to truly transcend, it will be even more difficult than reaching the sky!
Unless there is a projection plane that can exist permanently and allow the internal time to move forward infinitely, it is possible to transcend.
But in that case, is it still a projection plane?
That's more like different branches of the main plane on the timeline, similar to a parallel world, but is that really possible?
For some reason, Xia Duo suddenly felt a little empty in his heart, as if there was an existence in a parallel world that was stealing his power and essence.
cough--
Xia Duo quickly shook this bad thought out of his mind. Parallel worlds and so on were still too far away from him. He hadn't even understood the main plane yet. Thinking about those things that existed or didn't exist would only disturb his will.
Returning to the issue of Dream Ruins, Shado asked Cliff the question he was most concerned about: "How does time pass in Dream Ruins?"
"Same as the projection plane!" Cliff replied.
The same as the projection plane, that is to say, every second spent in the ruins of dreams will actually consume one second of life.
Of course, for the main plane, because it is an adventure to the star realm, real time can be ignored. This second has passed, and you may be back the next second.
Therefore, when venturing to the Star Boundary, or any other location in the Star Boundary (such as the projection plane), you must calculate the return time.
If you stay too long and exceed the upper limit of your lifespan, you might as well not come back or die immediately if you come back.
Generally speaking, the life span of astral mages in the main plane is much shorter than that of normal mages, simply because they need to project their spirits to the astral world for a long time to search for new projection planes or other special existences.
It's equivalent to overdrawing your future life every moment.
But for Xia Duo, an occasional exploration of the astral world can also be used as a change in life.
With his current lifespan, whether it is the natural lifespan brought about by bloodline awakening or the use of life-extending spells, he will not lose his life just because of one or two explorations of the astral realm (including the projection plane).
"Sir Cliff, when do we set off? How do we get there?"
"If you don't need to prepare anything else, you can set off now! As for how to get to the Ruins of Dreams, of course you have to go to Giles Tower!"
"Giles Tower?" Shado was suddenly confused.
He was originally prepared to be forcibly taken back to the Mage Tower by Cliff, but he didn't expect to go to Giles Tower instead?
Isn't Cliff afraid that he will run away midway?
In fact, despite the fact that Xia Duo agreed readily just now, if he were forcibly taken to Cliff's mage tower right here, he would definitely betray him midway.
Apart from anything else, at least let him get in touch with Iolum. Compared to Cliff, who has no interaction and has never interacted with him, Shado still trusts Iolum more.
But if you go to Giles Tower, there won't be too many problems.
Sure enough, after Shado expressed doubts, Cliff immediately gave an explanation, but this explanation was not complete. "Yes, it is the Giles Tower. There are secrets involved. We will talk about it on the way."
After saying that, he returned to his original state of tight expression and solemn expression when they first met, and said to the Theremin father and son who had been sitting aside and pretending to be quail until now:
"Lord Xia Duo and I are leaving, you can do what you want!"
Upon hearing this, the Theremins hurriedly stood up from their chairs, bowed, then bowed their heads and left.
Seeing this scene, Xia Duo couldn't help but feel a little funny, and couldn't help but glance at Cliff. Is it really so scary?
However, since theremin and his son were so cautious when facing Cliff, even in their own mage tower, Chateau's emphasis on this exploration has increased.
If he didn't find any "power of death", wouldn't Cliff go crazy?
Thinking of this, before the two of them left, Shado hurriedly spoke: "Sir Cliff, I want to go to the Austrian Law Federation to prepare something first. Let's meet at Giles Tower!"
Cliff was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Okay."
After receiving Cliff's affirmative answer, Shado felt confident. No matter what, if he shared his anger with Iolum first, he could at least rule out most of the conspiracies.
