Chapter 710: Lord of Time
"Boss, you should go and have a rest too. I'll stay with Sister Xue." Xiaoya looked at Mu You with some distress.
Everyone was guarding Lin Xue, but she could see that Mu You was also very tired, but he just didn't show it.
"Okay."
Mu You nodded and didn't refuse. Although he used the archiver, he only restored his memory. The fatigue accumulated in the long time of the time cage was not so easy to erase. At this time, his fatigue was not much less than Lin Xue.
After guarding the bed for more than half an hour, Lin Xue seemed to fall asleep, her breathing became long, and her hand holding Mu You gradually relaxed.
Mu You carefully withdrew his hand, covered her with a quilt, and then quietly left the room with Linglong.
Regarding the trauma of Lin Xue's soul, the two made a blind guess, but in the end they couldn't discuss a conclusion, so they had to let it go.
"Tell me, what happened during this period? How is the situation in Gaotian?" When he came to the hall downstairs, Mu You sat down at the dining table, and then looked at Linglong and asked.
When he synchronized his memories with Linglong just now, he had actually seen some of the situation, but he was worried about Lin Xue's situation at that time and didn't pay much attention.
"A lot of things have happened in this month..."
Linglong went to the refrigerator to get a cup of ice cream, sat down opposite Mu You, and slowly told the story.
Mu You listened patiently one by one.
This time he didn't leave in an ordinary way, but completely lost his whereabouts.
As the most watched person in the entire human world, if the ghost captain was only missing for a day or two, it would be fine. There was no news for a whole month, which was enough to cause panic among many people.
For a month, the topic of "Ghost Captain's whereabouts" on the forum has been fermenting every day. At the beginning, it was just sporadic discussions, but as time went on, the rumors became more and more outrageous, and the ghost captain himself never really stood up to speak even once, so more and more players joined the discussion camp.
And their home, there are countless visitors every day.
Fortunately, the two clones are quite reliable. During this period, the herbalist and Ava have been staying in Gaotian to help him deal with the affairs of the City of Order and the City of Dawn.
Linglong will handle all the affairs and visitors on Earth.
"Don't worry, our external statement is that you are in seclusion in a secret place and cannot come out for the time being. All matters will be handled by me and the herbalist. We have also refuted some rumors about your whereabouts one by one." Linglong said.
During this period, she and the herbalist cooperated to suppress the rhythm many times, which stabilized public opinion.
"However, you'd better show up in the world as soon as possible. Ordinary people are easy to fool, but the masters of those big forces are not easy to fool. They will send people to visit every now and then to investigate. After not meeting the real master for a month, the people in the big forces are actually panicking now." Linglong said.
Mu You can also imagine the situation of these big forces to some extent: with a big enemy at hand, he, the "savior" recognized by many people, suddenly disappeared. I believe that many forces have secretly made the worst plan. Once Mu You really can't come back, then mankind will almost certainly fail, and they must prepare a way out for themselves in advance.
"What about the night watchman?" Mu You asked. The night watchman and the snake had set out to track the other two disaster beasts, and they had been gone for a while.
"No news yet."
Linglong shook her head: "But something happened in Gaotian, you have to know."
"What happened?"
"Dawn City, Dawn City, Rising Sun City, Dusk City, these four cities have recently found traces of giant scouts around them." Linglong said.
"Oh? Just scouts?" Mu You raised his eyebrows.
"Well, there are only scouts at present. We have also sent people to conduct large-scale searches around several cities, but no traces of giant troops have been found."
"However, according to the analysis of military experts from various countries, it is unanimously believed that this is a precursor to a major war. The Devouring God Beast is likely to gather troops around these cities in the near future."
"The reason why we haven't taken action yet is because we are still in the stage of spying. Once we find out our strengths and weaknesses, we will most likely find weak points to suppress them..." Linglong said.
Mu You's face became solemn after hearing this.
The enemy's intention of this action is too obvious. Not to mention those professional military personnel, ordinary people like them can clearly smell the breath of the war.
Moreover, this time is different from the last battle in the City of Order.
Last time, they were in the dark, the enemy was in the light, and they only faced one enemy city, but they almost dispatched all their combat power, which was equivalent to a civilization attacking one enemy city.
Even so, it was difficult to win because the enemy was careless and not prepared.
After that battle, no matter how slow the God Eater was, he should have realized the threat of humans and would not underestimate them again.
In addition to the things in the Ring Forest, the God Eater's power in the Ring Forest was uprooted by Mu You, and the Savages were likely to join the camp against the God Eater. These things must have been reported back to the God Eater headquarters.
Adding these two things together, the God Eaters could not fail to realize that the Fool has now grown into their number one enemy, and is even more threatening than the Savages.
Facing such an opponent who has the ability to overthrow them, the God Devourer will definitely not hold back this time. Once it strikes, it will definitely strike with all its strength!
In other words, the next battle will most likely be a decisive battle between the two sides!
"According to those military experts, with the current scouting power of the Devouring God Beast, the war is very likely to start within a quarter." Linglong said with a serious face: "And this conclusion is also recognized by Ava. Even according to its calculation results, the war may start 15-30 days earlier..."
Mu You understood what she meant. Compared with the judgment of humans mixed with emotions, they believed in Ava's calculation power more. What's more, the prediction results of both sides were almost the same, which meant that the war was a foregone conclusion.
"Less than three months..."
Mu You breathed a sigh of relief. It must be said that time was really a bit tight. Whether it was himself or the Fool as a whole, they were not ready for a full-scale decisive battle with the Devouring God Beast.
For him, if the decisive battle could be delayed for a few more decades and held on the eve of the Great Disaster, it would be the best rhythm.
Unfortunately, this is not a joke, but a life-and-death racial war. The enemy knows that they are a threat, so it is impossible for them to continue to grow. As long as there is a chance, they will launch a thunderbolt at the fastest speed to destroy them in the bud...
Mu You shook his head. Let's talk about these later. Now let's deal with the problem at hand.
Mu You took out his mobile phone, turned it on, and opened the forum.
The message box of the forum was indeed 999+ red dots. As soon as the software was opened, tens of thousands of messages came in.
And this was the result of him turning on the non-friend blocking. All the people who sent messages were people he knew.
Mu You screened and picked out some important people to reply, such as several city lords, members of the Mystic Association, and acquaintances in K City, Lin Hai, Lu Yao, Zhang Yang, etc.
Of course, Mu You did not fall behind the administrator and Ava. The causal line passed through and simply reported safety.
After a series of replies, Mu You specially posted a city-wide announcement in the city lord interface of the City of Dawn as the city lord, stating that his "retreat" had ended and he had now returned.
This show of presence finally calmed down the panic rumors that were originally boiling.
Some people who had small thoughts because of his disappearance also hurriedly suppressed their thoughts.
After dealing with the forum messages, Mu You had time to log in to the game and sort out the gains of this trip.
[You have obtained the characteristic "Time Observer": When someone activates the time system ability within a certain range around you, you will automatically follow the initiator and enter various time changes. ]
[You have obtained the complete time god power. ]
[It is detected that there is already a main belief. Before giving up the main belief, the god power cannot spread the belief to others, cannot gain believers, and cannot condense artifacts...]
Clicking on the panel, it can be seen that the time god bone has indeed been fused, and it is not an ordinary fusion, but a complete inheritance of the god power, but it is impossible to gather believers.
At this moment, the growth rate of his seed of time, like the seed of order, has become 100%, and the stock of the power of heaven has also increased tenfold!
As for the specific abilities of the divine power of time... Mu You tried it on the spot and found that there are mainly three types.
The first is naturally the realm of cessation.
Now Mu You does not need to turn the gyroscope, he can open the realm of cessation at any time, and there is no fixed duration. In theory, as long as his mind does not fluctuate, he can even maintain it forever.
Of course, in reality, it is impossible for the mind not to fluctuate.
Unless he simply maintains the realm of cessation and does not do anything that uses energy in the realm of cessation, such as just taking a walk in the realm of cessation and looking at the scenery, then the realm of cessation can be maintained for a very long time at a time, and there is no problem for several days and nights.
However, once he wants to fight in the realm of cessation, whether it is using divine power or magic, it will cause mental fluctuations, and the time to maintain the realm of cessation will be greatly reduced, and it will last for a few minutes at most each time. Moreover, the more intense the battle, the more intense the mental fluctuations will be. Facing a strong enemy, the time of the realm of cessation will be further shortened.
Of course, the mental stability here should be extended through training. For example, the last time he met the first generation leader, the world of cessation at that time lasted for at least an hour.
The owner of the world of cessation, the first generation of the Lord of Dawn City, seems to be still being hunted by the enemy. It is a miracle that he can maintain the world of cessation for such a long time in the battle.
The second ability is the "world of cessation shield", which can temporarily pull other people, objects or energy attacks into the world of cessation, allowing them to temporarily exempt the rules of the world of cessation and operate normally in the world of cessation.
The third ability is "time elimination", which directly erases himself or the people or objects he directly touches in the current time, and the duration depends on his understanding of the rules of time.
Mu You tried it on the spot. Now he can make an object disappear out of thin air for up to 32 seconds.
These three abilities were used by Zuo Qiu before, and they belong to the basic abilities of the God of Time, but it does not mean that the God of Time has only these three abilities. Next, as long as he has a deep enough understanding of the laws of time, he can take these three abilities as the core and continuously develop and extend various time-related magics.
It was no wonder that the Fairy Queen asked him to consolidate the divine power after he returned before leaving.
The divine power of time that he inherited now was, to put it bluntly, only the most primitive form, equivalent to an uncut jade, and there was still a lot of room for development.
…
The first day after Mu You returned was spent in a busy schedule.
Lin Xue slept until the evening before waking up. After a rest, Lin Xue's mental state was finally better and he was not so weak anymore.
At this time, Mianmian, who was attending a nearby elementary school, also came back with her schoolbag.
Yes, during the month when Mu You was away, Linglong arranged for the little girl to go to school properly. After all, it was not a good thing for a child to stay at home and sleep all day.
At first, the little girl was said to be very noisy for a few days and refused to go, but later she seemed to have made a few friends at school, and finally stopped resisting and went to school obediently every day.
However, Mu You took the time to look at her schoolbag and found that there was no book in it, only a pillow...Mu You was very suspicious about what she was going to school for.
In addition, Lin Hai received the news from Mu You and drove over in a hurry to visit his sister.
Even the herbalist made a special trip back from the high sky world after receiving the news.
Mu You specially ordered a table of dishes. It was rare for the family to get together, and he wanted to have a reunion dinner.
As a result, the atmosphere at the dinner table today was particularly weird.
"Then... I, we'll go back first..."
After a simple meal, seeing that it was getting dark, everyone looked at each other and went back to their own homes.
Lin Hai and Mu You said something and left directly.
Xiao Ya yawned and went out with sleepy eyes. She was really tired after taking care of Lin Xue for a day.
The herbalist hurried back to the City of Order, saying that there were still a lot of military affairs waiting for him to deal with there, and he took time out of his busy schedule to come back.
"Be good, sleep downstairs with me tonight."
Linglong got up and pulled Mianmian's arm, wanting to take her away from the table.
"No, I'm not full yet, and I want to talk to Mu You. I haven't seen him for a month!" The little girl grabbed the corner of the table rebelliously and refused to move.
Linglong's eyebrows flashed two black lines, silly girl, can you take a look at the atmosphere.
Helpless, for the happiness of the original body, she had to put her ear close to Mianmian's ear and whispered to her.
"The glowing Kamen Rider? Where is he? Take me to see him?" The little girl's eyes lit up, and she instantly forgot about Mu You, and turned around to urge him.
Linglong's plan succeeded, and she pulled the little girl out of the door. Before leaving, she did not forget to look back and secretly gave Mu You a few "come on" eyes.
And Vivian and Coke, after eating some simple food, quietly left the scene and entered the backpack space without even saying hello.
Only Mu You and Lin Xue were left at the scene.
"Uh..."
Mu You watched a bunch of people at the dinner table leave in an instant, and the table of dishes was almost untouched, even Coke's cat food was half a bowl left, and his face looked weird.
Of course, he actually understood why everyone left in such a hurry.
After Lin Xue woke up, he ate some more food, and his condition was obviously much better. Except for his pale face, he looked no different from usual.
But this refers to the outside.
Lin Xue inside, today, seems to be a completely different person.
Just now at the dinner table, in full view of everyone, she naturally took Mu You's hand and sat with him.
Then, as if no one was around, she picked up dishes again and again and sent them to Mu You's mouth, then smiled and watched him eat, her face would become very satisfied...
So Mu You actually understands other people's feelings very well.
It's normal not to eat much. Faced with such a scene at the dinner table, what else would ordinary people eat? Just watching can make you full...
Not to mention other people, even Mu You himself was sweating profusely.
This is the legendary, as long as I am not embarrassed, others are embarrassed.
But what's even more bizarre is that he didn't feel abrupt, as if this was the daily routine they had repeated countless times.
Back to the point, if Lin Xue was just being intimate in front of everyone, it would be fine.
But then when Mu You cleaned up the table, washed up, and prepared to return to the bedroom.
Lin Xue also followed him into the room naturally... (End of this chapter)
