No Sense of Restraint (@落叶丿飞鸟--大神认证)
Across from the wooden table, Ye Zizhen sat quietly, her expression unreadable.
Brutus stood silently by the table, his demeanor calm and profound.
Where is this?
Song Shige surveyed the surroundings and found that it resembled a long-neglected prison.
"My Talent allows me to imprison things and borrow their abilities."
Brutus eyes were not covered by a blindfold and revealed two pitted holes, said this.
When he was in the Forbidden Existence area slaughtered by the [Watchers ], after entering the Trial Instance, he deliberately sacrificed his eyes and most of his senses, using his Talent to trick and imprison the [Watchers ] who had just crossed the world and were still very weak.
Then, by leveraging the mutual restraint between the two, the [Watcher] in the real world was also imprisoned, leaving a person living in Dead Zone.
He originally didn't want to enter Large Dungeon.
However, staying in the region meant they couldn't defeat the expanding new civilization, so they had no choice but to retreat into the Trial Instance, just like before, to seek refuge and try their luck.
Both [Watchers ] from the previous era were possessed and taken away by [Sai Wangli]. [Brutus] was a little weaker, but this greatly reduced his burden.
"A very interesting Talent. Can you borrow the power of Survivors?" Song Shige asked.
He could feel a force binding him, but he could easily break free after activating his Talent, probably because he hadn't been to prison.
"Yes, you can even borrow some of their Talent, but the price is too high. I haven't really developed it much on my own."
[Brutus] shrugged, not particularly interested in the topic.
"Alright, let's get down to business. I entered the [Jump Gate] just before the finals were about to begin, and then I encountered the [Silk Woman] in the [Jump Gate]."
"How did you survive?" Song Shige asked first.
"That's a good question. I know I'm not that powerful, so I just added some points before entering the [Jump Gate]. The instant I entered the [Jump Gate], I sensed the [Silk Woman's] gaze, chose to imprison a strand of Rainbow Threads beside me, and then... and then I appeared outside the Fixed Star."
After speaking, [Brutus] turned his gaze to Ye Zizhen.
After all, it was Ye Zizhen came to take [Brutus] away, and [Brutus] didn't actually know the specific process.
Ye Zizhen crossed her arms, blindfolded herself, and said slowly and deliberately:
"I was first approached by [Wu Guang], but fortunately it was just a Clone, and I managed to escape using some means. Then I immediately went to the Jump Gate to rescue [Brutus]. The whole process was that simple, but I discovered some information."
Song Shige interrupted Ye Zizhen: "Wait, you mean [Silk Woman] has been blocking the door the whole time. But we've been observing Survivors leaving the Fixed Star from the outside."
"The Survivors who come out later are most likely problematic. I don't think any Survivor can leave [Silk Woman's] embrace so easily."
Ye Zizhen answered the question without hesitation.
He didn't pause. "The first information I discovered was about [Chaos]. [Chaos] is a terrifying being in the Mystery Side Survival World, and I even suspect that it is Great Being."
There are many Survival Worlds on the Mystery Side, more than on the Faith Side, but many of the Kin in these Mystery Side Survival Worlds are interconnected.
In other words, the influence of these Mystery Side extends beyond just one Survival World; it clearly encompasses All Heavens and Ten Thousand Worlds.
"One of His known titles is [The One Who Unifies All Things]. A trace of His power has descended upon this era. Coupled with the silence of [The Mother Goddess] and the disappearance of the citizens, something is definitely wrong with them. You'd better stay away from them and stay away from all Jump Gates."
"We'll agree on a new location and meet up after the Scholar's promotion."
"Understood." Song Shige nodded.
Even if Ye Zizhen hadn't reminded them, they would have done the same thing.
"The next piece of information is even more important." Ye Zizhen darkened.
"I originally intended to only tell the Scholar, as the secrets of time can have backlash, but since he's half-dead now, I'll tell you."
Upon hearing this, [Brutus] turned and went deeper into the prison to beat the prisoners, ignoring what was being said.
"Please speak," Song Shige gestured for him to continue.
Ye Zizhen, with her eyes blind, glanced around and began to explain:
"Firstly, in the first three eras, the timeline of Large Dungeons was Lock-On. I've basically never seen Survivors with time-related abilities, except for those with time-related combat skills."
"I thought the first two eras were Lock-On Large Dungeons, but after [Wu Guang] disappeared in the [Demon Realm] in the third era, the timeline Lock-On ended."
"You mean, the Timeline Lock-On is Lock-On by the existence behind [Wu Guang]?"
Even Song Shige, a veteran of bandages, showed a hint of surprise.
They might as well just come down and make the arrangements themselves; how shameless!
The person who best sells their butt in the Survival World.
Actually, [Wu Guang] is the most captivating Survivor in the Survival Game, don't you think?
"That's what I thought until I saw [the Silk Woman]."
Ye Zizhen shook her head, her expression becoming complicated:
"This idea was overturned when I discovered that the [Silk Woman]'s Cognitive Shielding effect on [Eternal Paradise] was achieved by deleting individual time."
"Delete... time? What kind of operation is that?"
The older generation, when it comes to playing games, just doesn't know their own strength or boundaries.
He truly couldn't understand the phrase, "Forgive Song Shige."
"It's this [Silk Woman] who, on the surface, possesses unparalleled combat power, capable of plundering skills, absorbing strength, and repairing space, etc. Her Rainbow Threads seems to be omnipotent."
"But actually, she achieved this effect by stealing other people's time. I'm not entirely sure of the specifics, I can only see the incomplete timelines on other Survivors. Your timelines also have very subtle incompleteness, but it's very rare, I didn't notice it before I unlocked your Essence."
"The abilities of other Survivors in the previous eras were merely temporary additions; this is her original ability. It's a time-based ability, and not just any ordinary time-based ability."
Song Shige suddenly recalled the scene from the previous era in the [Wasteland] where the [Silk Woman] recovered her strength in a very short time.
"So it's the two of them who locked the Large Dungeon timeline?" Song Shige finally asked.
"I took a look, and it's about right." Ye Zizhen didn't know how to describe it, so she could only reveal as little timeline information as possible.
"It's roughly the timeline of the original Silk Woman's promiscuous behavior that was swallowed up by the Unknown Being behind [Wu Guang]."
"So all that's left is a single, lonely timeline. The real reason you're in prison is most likely [Silk Woman]."
"As for why this era wasn't locked, I have no idea."
