This Text Adventure Game is Totally Poisonous

"You just said that the God of Chaos stole most of the fragments of the future?" Lin Xue suddenly looked at the Fairy Queen.

"Yes." The Queen nodded: "What?"

"If the God of Chaos has mastered the ability to peer into the future, is there any point in what we are doing now?" Lin Xue asked.

"Don't worry, the future won't be rewritten that easily. The future is made up of countless uncertain branches. Even if the God of Chaos gains the ability to observe the future, he can only change some details in a very limited way to guide the future to a relative advantage. direction, but cannot directly obtain a certain future.”

The Fairy Queen said: "Besides, what they snatched away was only the original Heart of Time fragment. It was not naturally occupied by the divine system. It was equivalent to unprocessed 'ore'. They wanted to integrate these original ores into the divine system. , it will take an extremely long time to turn it into an authority that can truly be used."

"How long does 'a long time' mean?" Lin Xue asked.

"The span is at least millions of years."

The Queen said: "Otherwise, the will of the original world would not have had time to slowly awaken. The moment it encountered the divine system, it would have been quickly swallowed up. It is precisely because the fusion of each time stone will It was a long process that gave Jie Lin the opportunity to take shape.”

Lin Xue nodded.

That's no problem. The God of Chaos stole the time fragments only for tens of thousands of years. Even if they fuse day and night from that day on, it is still only enough to fuse a very small part of the stones. More time fragments should be It's still alive, and as long as you defeat the God of Chaos, you can get these fragments back.

"The piece that was snatched away by the God of Time..." Mu You hesitated.

He remembered that when he met the first-generation leader before, the first-generation leader had told him that the time agent of the previous generation had seen part of the future through divine power.

This shows that the fragment of the future that the God of Time snatched away has been successfully fused by him, at least partially.

"Oh, that piece has been recovered," the Queen said.

"Huh?" Mu You was stunned, and then remembered that in the middle of this era, the two first-generation leaders also came to the Heart of Time. At that time, they obviously came with divine power, and they probably recovered it at that time.

"About a quarter of the stone snatched away by the God of Time has been fused by it over the years, leaving three-quarters remaining.

Those two fools were very sensible. After arriving at the Heart of Time, they actually chose to cooperate with us and handed over the remaining time fragments. In return, the Heart of Time provided them with the opportunity to enter the time cage and experience it, and helped them understand part of the divine power of the future. "

"At the same time, according to their wishes, the divine power of time was divided, and a part of the divine power that represented the 'past' was cut out separately and turned into a special prop..."

"So that's it..."

Only now did Mu You fully understand the experiences of the first generation of Fools.

The special props separated here obviously refer to pocket watches.

When the first-generation leader told him the origin of the pocket watch, Mu You was surprised. He was also an agent of divine power. How could the first-generation time agent have the ability to divide divine authority? He couldn't do this anyway.

Only now is it clear, it turns out to be the beating hand of time.

As the originator of time in the entire world, there is really no need to make a fuss about the Heart of Time taking action to divide the divine power of time.

Mu You shook his head and looked at the Fairy Queen: "Where is the time cage you mentioned...?"

The Fairy Queen and Vivian mentioned the 'Time Cage' again and again, and in the past so many big names were vying to get in, which made Mu You start to become curious about this place.

The Fairy Queen pointed to the time cube in front of her: "The time cage is inside the Heart of Time. The passage arranged for you has been prepared. As long as you get close to the cube, you will be automatically transported into the time cage."

"What's it like inside?" Mu You didn't rush over and asked some basic things first before talking.

"Inside, there is a false boundary."

"Fake?"

Mu You was at a loss, he understood the Zhijie, but what was the false Zhijie?

"Specifically, it will generate a world that was fixed at a certain point in time that you have experienced in the past. Time in this world flows, but the flow rate is extremely slow. It will be so slow that if you stay in it for thousands of years, the whole world will It runs for one second, so it can be approximately regarded as a stop."

The world that was fixed at a certain point in time... Doesn't that refer to a certain moment on earth in the past?

Mu You thought to himself that he had stayed on earth for most of his life, and could even further go to China, K City and several surrounding counties and cities - before the appearance of the Fool's Game, he had never even left the province.

"Then...what do I need to do inside?" Mu You asked.

"You don't have to do anything, you just need to stay awake and live." said the Fairy Queen.

"Alive?"

Mu You was a little surprised.

If the scene inside is the realm of cessation, then there is no one who can move in the whole world except him. In addition, there should be no need to eat, drink, and eat in the realm of cessation. When there is no danger and no need to worry about livelihood, what is the difficulty in just living? of?

"Yes, in the time cage, as long as the person who enters can live for more than five hundred years, he will automatically obtain the 'time observer' characteristic."

The Fairy Queen nodded, then looked at Mu You and muttered: "However, your goal is to digest the divine bones, and the time you need to stay inside is far longer than five hundred years..."

"How long will it take?" Vivian asked with a frown.

"Ten times... at least!" said the Queen.

"Ten times? This is impossible!" Vivian was shocked and immediately shook her head: "No one can do it!"

"I know it's difficult, but this is the path he must take." The Queen spread her hands.

"Why can't it be done?" Mu You looked at Vivian strangely.

Ten times five hundred years, five thousand years.

If he only wants to stay there for five thousand years, it doesn't seem to be that difficult. When he faced off against the chaotic clone in the Tower of Order, he even stayed in the cracks of time for ten thousand years in order to understand the laws of order. , just now he had learned something and killed the clone.

Vivian looked at him solemnly and shook her head: "You don't understand, this is different from your usual recollection."

"Why is it different?"

"The reason why the time cage is called a cage is because it is depressing enough and no power system can be embodied in it. You will return to the state of ordinary people, and because it is the limit, your physical condition is also locked. You won’t get sick, you won’t die, and no matter how much you exercise or exercise, it won’t make your body stronger in the slightest.”

"At the same time, because it is a scene built with you as the core, there will be no things in the scene that are beyond your knowledge at the time, such as books, books that you have not actually read. In the scene, you can only see a cover. When you open it, it will be blank inside.”

"This is the biggest difference between time cage and your usual way of backtracking. You usually go back thousands of times. The reason why you don't feel much is because you always have a fixed target for you to chase. Every time you go back, , are meaningful to you.

But in the time cage, you can't do anything meaningful. The only thing you can do is to be in a daze and go crazy. "

"Loneliness, decadence, emptiness, madness...these negative feelings will quickly envelope you and become stronger as time goes by."

"In the first few years to decades, the novelty can keep you calm, but in the long period of time, the novelty will soon pass away, and you will go crazy trying to escape from the cage and return to normal. The world, and when your inner desire to escape reaches a certain level and you can no longer stay awake, your experience in the time cage will fail." Vivian explained with a solemn expression, seeming to recall her time in the time cage. The experience in the cage that nearly drove her crazy still leaves her with lingering fears.

"Then what will happen if the experience fails? Will you return to the real world?" Xiaoya asked cautiously.

Vivian shook her head, looked at Mu You and said: "You will be pulled into a deeper void of time and become nothingness. In reality, your existence will be directly erased, and no one will remember it anymore. You, all traces of your existence will be erased from the roots."

"ah……"

Xiaoya exclaimed, no one remembers, even the existence has been erased, this is worse than death...

After listening to Vivian's story, Mu You pondered for a moment, nodded, and stood up: "I almost understand... I'm ready."

"Wait!" Vivian suddenly said.

"Vivian, I have to go." Mu You looked at Vivian, thinking she was trying to stop him.

"No, I mean, you can't go in alone." Vivian shook her head: "A person will never pass the test of the time cage. Find another person to accompany you. If there are two people, you can't go in alone." The stay will be greatly extended.”

Mu You was stunned: "Can more people go in together?"

"The tester can bring people into the cage, and can also send the people you bring in safely out at any time... But every additional person will add an extra burden to the Heart of Time, and with the current situation of the Heart of Time, you also I see... you can only bring one person with you at most." The Fairy Queen said.

Only then did Mu You realize. No wonder the Fairy Queen said at the beginning that she had left "two places" for him. This was a tacit admission that he was allowed to bring one person in...

"Then you were..." Mu You looked at Vivian, a little curious about who she was partnering with.

"I went in with the forest spirit..."

Vivian sighed: "We stay awake in the cage by discussing black magic. There is no magic system inside, and everything can only be made up in our heads. This kind of discussion is very boring. We just force ourselves over and over again. Discussion... When I was about to have a mental breakdown, I finally managed to survive five hundred years... If the forest spirit had not been with me at that time, I probably wouldn't have been able to survive even fifty years..."

Mu You breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. He could bring people in, and the difficulty seemed to have eased a bit.

The question now is: Who should he bring in?

Vivian, who has had experience in a cage, is of course the best choice.

Mu You subconsciously looked at Crow, but Vivian shook her head: "I really want to help you, but unfortunately I can't."

"Why?"

"The person you follow is also conditional. It must be someone who already exists in that scene. After you enter, you need to find the person's position in the scene first, and then touch the other person to get the other person out of the limit state. ." The Fairy Queen explained.

"People who already exist..."

Mu You was stunned for a moment. The scene he was about to enter was most likely the Earth at a random point in time in the past twenty years or so.

Naturally, there cannot be Vivian in this scene, and even the three clones, Mianmian, Mulan, and Coke, will not exist.

The only people who can meet the conditions are the natives of the earth, and they must be close to him in age, and at least they must be alive and standing on the earth at that point in time.

Fortunately, there are people who meet these two conditions on the spot.

Mu You and Vivian turned around in unison and looked at the two people behind them.

Xiaoya and Lin Xue both meet the requirements, and the three of them are all from K City. For most of the past time, the three of them were not too far apart, so it should not be difficult to find them in the scene.

Lin Xue and Xiaoya were both startled.

Lin Xue quickly understood what it meant, while Xiaoya reacted for a few seconds before understanding the rules: the only ones who could accompany Mu You in were the two of them...

"ah……"

Xiaoya suddenly blushed.

She actually didn't understand much about the risks of entering the time cage, nor did she care much about it. The only information she clearly understood was that she needed to accompany Mu You and stay in that place for more than five thousand years.

It's just her and Mu You, a man and a woman alone for five thousand years, isn't that...

Xiaoya's cheeks became hot: Will it develop into that kind of relationship? No, it should be said that it will definitely develop into that kind of relationship. After all, it was five thousand years...

Xiaoya's mind was in chaos for a moment. Various pictures of her and Muyou over the years flashed through her mind. The big brother in the dream of redemption also overlapped with Muyou's figure. The pictures gradually extended and extended. To the auditorium of the future, flowers, wedding dresses, babies crying...

Just when Xiaoya was covering her hot cheeks and immersed in random thoughts.

A voice suddenly sounded beside her: "I'll come."

Xiaoya was stunned, and the messy thoughts in her mind suddenly stopped. She turned her head and looked at Lin Xue in surprise.

Lin Xue's face remained as calm as ever, but her eyes were particularly firm.

"I, I can also..."

Xiaoya reacted and hurriedly followed, but her voice was involuntarily lowered.

In the end, Lin Xue just turned to look at her, smiled and shook her head: "Be good, let me do it."

The tone of the discussion revealed an unquestionable determination.

Xiaoya stayed where she was and opened her mouth to say something, but was momentarily shocked by Lin Xue's aura. In the end, she couldn't say anything and could only watch Lin Xue walk out.

"Xiaoxue, are you really sure?"

Vivian looked at Lin Xue seriously.

"I must warn you, this matter is not as simple as you think. Once something goes wrong, the outcome will be more terrifying than death."

"Is it more terrifying than death..."

Lin Xue murmured these words and looked at Mu You, but the childish voice from the dream not long ago echoed in her mind.

"...If I can make you less afraid by following you to hell, then I will accompany you..."

…

"Xiaoxue, let me ask again, are you confident that you can spend five thousand years in it?" Vivian's voice interrupted Lin Xue's thoughts.

Lin Xue glanced at Vivian, sighed, and shook her head calmly: "To be honest, I don't know..."

"But the only thing I'm sure of is that I don't want to give this position to anyone else..."

"So, let me do it." (End of Chapter)
