Volume 15: Organisms and Organisms and Organisms Chapter 18 Accelerating World
When the sun still hadn't risen after eighteen hours, even the most dull-witted person would realize that something was wrong.
The sun of this planet is not a star in a galaxy. Rather than a star, it is a torch used to light up the void in an ancient war a long time ago. When this star torch is lit, it can make all the ground fall into light, rather than leaving a part of it in the dark. This is obviously the style of the temple. They don't want any shadows in the universe, so wherever their coordinates are, it is basically bright.
This has certainly caused distress to many people, but no matter what, this thing has replaced the role of the sun. The original sun was blown away to who knows where, and now this thing allows people on this planet to have food and drink, and allows them to have a preliminary concept of time and space, which is already good enough.
Although this has given rise to many sects that worship the Astronomical Torch, this is all well within control and there is nothing to be surprised about.
The problem was that a full twenty-four hours of darkness had passed, and there was no sign of the Astronomican being lit.
At first, people were in a panic, thinking that the world was about to end and everyone would be judged. They prayed nervously that the Star Torch would rise from behind the horizon again at some point, hoping that the planet would be filled with bright light. However, this was not the case. The sun never rose, as if the planet had been abandoned and no longer had any use.
The local people were in turmoil for quite some time, and various messages began to appear one after another. However, in the highest capital of this planet, the wizards gathered together and announced that they had discovered a reality that was more terrifying than the extinguishing of the Astronomican.
"Our time has been reset."
At the highest summit of the planet, the spellcasters gathered together and presented the projection to everyone.
It was a finely crafted clock-shaped object, of course not a high-end product that could be obtained on this planet, but a time component left over from a battlefield, used to locate the basic time for magic rituals. There were so many abilities in the time system, and the judgment and decision of the basic time of the universe was also a relatively important matter, especially in some major magic rituals. And this instrument was now projecting some unstable red light.
This means that the entire planet is shrouded in a large-scale time distortion, and all high-level ritual fields and all time experiments will be prohibited. It's not that there will be any conflicts, but it will be disturbed beyond recognition. This is a very common thing in that era.
But on this planet, this can be said to be the first time in history that everyone felt the powerlessness after time was distorted.
The wizard from the Star Torch Research Institute pointed at the projection, pushed up his glasses, and explained in a low voice to the people around him:
"The entire planet is surrounded by a powerful time field that It's not that the Astronomican didn't rise, but that our time is repeatedly reset to night. The basic clock has pointed out this reality. We in the Time Hall haven't announced this news yet, because eternal night is much stronger than eternally repeated time. But this situation cannot be concealed for long. We must brainstorm to break this cage."
"But the main problem is that we don't even know who set up this horrible time cage and for what purpose. We don't know exactly what he wants to do, what he wants us to do, and whether he is friendly or hostile to us."
"It is more likely that we were just passively dragged into some unknown battlefield, acting as part of some big shots who were accidentally stirred up. It's like when children accidentally demolished an ant nest while digging in the mud. This is very possible. But we must free this planet from eternal time. I don't know if you have noticed this. The current time is just a blink of an eye for the outside world, but on our side, it has been a full eighteen hours. We may even die inexplicably."
The most powerful minds on the planet gathered in the hall, arguing with each other and wondering why such a scene had occurred.
But no one had any clue, or rather, they were confused as to why the eternal night phenomenon occurred. They had been living and working in their respective territories, and then inexplicably, with a shaking and time fluctuation, they found that their time had been frozen.
What the hell is this? An unexpected disaster? A premeditated conspiracy? Because there , all the mages looked at each other blankly, using their own shallow foresight to make various deductions and calculations. However, the results were all chaotic and unknown. There was a terrible force interfering with their predictions and knowledge, and even suppressing their thoughts to a very vague judgment. It was not even known what the mindset of the person who made all this was.
In this situation where they knew nothing, the mages could only put on a sad face and use the most clumsy method to weave and analyze various spell formations bit by bit.
This method was very crude and brainless, simply using infinite computing power to deduce the possible past and future. It was taught by elegant wizards as a very useless skill, but it was surprisingly effective. It took only a few minutes to figure out where the impact factor was distributed.
Right in their center.
At the moment the calculation was completed, a huge force suddenly emanated from the room, pushing everyone up from the ground. They staggered back a few steps and looked at the distorted scene in the air in surprise.
"What's going on!"
Amid the wizard's roar, the torn space in mid-air slowly took shape, and a distorted and blurry figure stepped out from the broken darkness, spreading its tentacle-like wings of light. A shivering whisper gradually sounded in everyone's heart, cursing everything in this world.
"Hello, fellow mages."
"For my father's instructions, please die."
The girl who appeared uninvited in the air looked indifferently at the commotion in front of her, and rushed forward calmly waving the sword in her hand.
