I Created the Myth of the Old Ruler

Lu Tan and Xia were completely confused.

They sat on the metal equipment and watched people coming and going.

There are not many giants on this island.

Even though they were all wearing yellow clothes and looked similar from a distance, Lu Tan still roughly remembered the guy who brought them back just now.

"...The pollution has finally been stabilized, but this is not the end. The real battle is about to begin now."

The giant came back after a while. He didn't take off his coat. You could see from his hood that he was sweating a lot, and he seemed very tired.

"May I have your name?"

Shia asked.

"Me? My name is Song. You can call me Lao Song. Yang and I are very good friends."

The giant sat next to the device, pulled out a gray tube from there, and connected it to a small metal box on his clothes.

After a while, along with the sound of something running, Lao Song let out a long sigh of pleasure. His whole body relaxed and his sweat disappeared.

Lu Tian guessed that this might be some kind of cooling device, and maybe it could also relax the nerves.

Although Lao Song said that foreign gods are not a big deal, the process of civilization fighting against pollution is always extremely difficult. There are many dead people on the beach. The problem cannot be solved with just a few words.

He must have been under a lot of pressure.

"Song, I want to discuss something with you."

At this time, another giant with a larger stature came to Lao Song. He patted Lao Song who was resting and said.

"For the next three rotations, you stay here and don't go."

"Why?"

When Lao Song heard this, he immediately sat up.

"I just got the news that Chen has died."

The man's words made Lao Song stunned, and he looked at him in disbelief.

"What did you say?"

"During the retreat, the structure collapsed due to the disturbance of the outer gods. At least [alienation] concentration of pollution spread and surrounded his team. As a scholar in the team, he stayed at the last one, and he and another team member were The pollution eroded and stayed there forever.”

He explained, his voice trembling slightly.

"So, Song, you are the only scholar in our area now, and you can no longer go to the front line."

"But... the disturbance data needs to be processed by me. Ordinary team members cannot resist the spread of pollution. Without scholars, the risk of controlling pollution will increase by at least 30%."

Lao Song tried to argue something, but he soon discovered that this proposal was the best choice.

"We can no longer bear the loss of the last scholar. The Tavel Time Anchor requires the permission of the scholar to continue to operate and close. If you also sacrifice, we will be trapped here forever until others find out about this. , looking for anchored points in time to find us.”

The giant said again.

Lao Song lowered his head, nodded in an incomprehensible amount, and watched the other party leave.

"scholar?"

Lu Tan asked curiously.

"Are you a scholar?"

"...Yes, you may not know that the identity of a scholar is not just a person who studies knowledge, but the core assistant of a legion. If there are no scholars, then you will lose your direction when traveling to foreign lands. It is also difficult to use some divinely-given equipment including the Tavel Time Anchor.”

Old Song said, pointing to the silver pile in the sea.

"And the time anchor also needs to rely on scholars to provide coordinates. If the scholar is lost, the people in the time anchored by Tavel's time anchor will lose contact with the outside world. It will be very difficult for outsiders to find the people here."

"Why?"

Lu Tan asked subconsciously.

Now it seems that Lao Song is quite willing to talk to these "experimental subjects". Although he doesn't know what the experimental subjects refer to, it is at least a good opportunity to gain knowledge.

Anyway, it doesn’t cost any money, just listen to it a little bit.

"Heh, you may not quite understand what a time anchor is."

Lao Song stood up, grabbed a handful of sand, and sprinkled it on the table of the metal equipment.

"I grabbed sand just now and scattered it here, causing it to accumulate here. It's like the outer gods have polluted this foreign land, and our job is to prevent this, so we will intercept it through the Tavel Time Anchor This period of time anchors the time before the first grain of sand falls to after the last grain of sand falls.”

"In this way, my hands did spill sand, but the Legion had properly disposed of all the sand during the anchoring time and put it back on the beach, so in the end, there was not a grain of sand on the table."

"Actually, the period of time from when I spread the sand to when it fell is very short. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to completely remove the sand, so it is necessary to anchor the time, even though the sand falls for only one second. , but we actually spent hundreds of years in anchor time getting the job done.”

"After hearing this, you should understand that time may be anchored at any moment of this second. Even if the outside world knows that we are anchored at this moment, if we don't know the specific anchor point, we still only To be able to be within two similar but completely different anchor points, unable to influence each other.”

After hearing Lao Song's explanation, Lu Tiaoduo thought of the plan they had discussed before to rescue Drizzt.

However, in that plan, no one needs to witness Drizzt's death to avoid a closed loop of fate. But according to Lao Song, even if the thing has already happened, as long as the corresponding time anchor can be found, it can be anchored. , find a way to solve the problem and then leave.

Of course, the premise is that the matter can be resolved.

Judging from Lu Tian's "timeline", this island should have been polluted a long time ago, and was later discovered by these giants to anchor time. And the fact that he can see Hedao that has not been polluted means that the efforts of these giants should Got a success?

But he quickly thought that this was not certain, because these giants were actually still trying to fight against the outer gods who were about to awaken. Their anchors only temporarily isolated the pollution. If they failed, they would be accompanied by the time anchor. When the last giant here dies, the pollution here will completely leak out, bringing destruction to Wajima.

"How long have you been here?"

Shia noticed this and asked.

"How long? According to the time of this world, it should be almost...seven thousand years?"

Lao Song did the math casually.

"Seven thousand years..."

This is an extremely long time for both Xia and Lu Tan.

During this time, these giants faced the awakening of the outer gods, and even contained and controlled the pollution that might have spread in just an instant for seven thousand years.

The skills, strength, and perseverance these people possess far exceed their imagination.

Lu Tuan quickly thought of an existence.

That is the glorious state.
