Chapter 427 Tomb of Chronippus [Two in One]

The feeling of being transported across dimensions is amazing.

When traveling through the astral world, you will feel an illusion that your soul is separated from your body because you are traveling too fast. At that time, your brain will automatically activate a certain protection mechanism to fill the lack of vision with false images in your mind. This is called "illusion" for short. See】.

The protective mechanism of vision will also make many intelligent beings who experience cross-dimensional teleportation for the first time think that they have seen their deceased relatives on that day - the brain will always give priority to recalling the things they most want to see in their subconscious mind. exists, and people always add a different kind of beautiful filter to the things that have passed away.

Fortunately, even though it was his first interdimensional teleportation, Ron's powerful body and soul prevented him from triggering this mechanism.

(The time in the Fire Elemental Plane does not count, because at that time the system automatically adjusted the causal relationship and the transmission channel, causing Ron to have no sense of vision as if he had stepped into the teleportation gate normally)

Time flows through everyone in the same way, but everyone spends time in different ways.

now

In a dark world not knowing how many light years away from Karen

"Buzz"

As the teleportation aura penetrated the long-defunct spiritual array, two black shadows, one large and one small, suddenly appeared in the night sky and fell downwards at an extremely fast speed.

"boom!"

Ron, who had returned to his iridescent dragon form, was keenly aware that he seemed to be out of touch with the teleportation aura. Without thinking much, he quickly spread his dragon wings in mid-air and waved forward.

boom! boom! boom! boom!

Accompanied by a series of air explosion sounds, huge physical kinetic energy burst out during the swing of the dragon wings, easily allowing Ron's super giant dragon body of more than 500 meters to hover in mid-air.

"Arrived so soon?"

Ron, who had just finished the plane transfer, shook his head to dispel the slight dizziness in his mind.

This time the inter-dimensional teleportation time was a little shorter than he expected. Ron thought he would maintain the super-light teleportation state for at least a week, but in fact, in his senses, he only teleported for a short period of time. It’s only half an hour in the astral realm.

He raised his head and looked around in confusion.

After a period of dizziness, the world slowly revealed its unique outline in the nine-color dragon eyes.

next second

Ron's pupils dilated instantly!

"what the fuck?!"

With the echo of the curse that didn't fit the style of the painting, this new world was completely revealed.

The wilderness is covered with fine red sand. On the sand, there is a looming dark luster, like a coral reef in the deep sea, which looks strange and unpredictable.

Ron glanced around, but saw only dead silence wherever he looked.

There was no sign of life in this world, the air was silent, no wind, no sound, not even the echo of his breathing.

Ron understood that there was something wrong with this transmission, and several # symbols suddenly appeared in the back of his head.

"Damn it, where's that bastard Elizabeth! Is this the teleportation circle you made!"

A certain iridescent dragon who was furious had his senses fully activated. After a lot of effort, he found Elizabeth in a sand dune who was in a deep [vision] state.

Looking at Elizabeth in front of him, Ron was silent.

At this time, Miss Succubus had lost all her elegance. Her upper body was buried in the sand dunes, leaving only half of her body exposed. Her two long, fleshy legs were unable to hang down, forming a strange shape with a splayed figure.

Obviously, the 'bang' that Ron heard before came from her close contact with the earth.

The corner of Ron's mouth twitched as he looked at Elizabeth who was lying upside down, and the complaints in his heart were about to explode.

Who can tell me why an ancient god fell into a state of teleportation?

three seconds later

"Poof! Wow--"

With a flash of light blue magic, a large amount of water elements flashed through this silent space, bringing the sound of waves that had not been seen in tens of thousands of years.

Apparently, Ron's wake-up call was perfect this time.

"Ugh! Cough cough cough"

After being soaked by the spray of water, Elizabeth finally woke up and patted her chest. After draining the excess liquid from her mouth, she looked up at the rainbow dragon in front of her with tears in her eyes:

"┭┮﹏┭┮Can't you be gentler in the way you wake up the girl?"

In response to her coquettishness, Ron, who returned to the body of a young dragon, just continued to keep his dead fish face and stared at her expressionlessly.

"First of all, you are no longer a girl, and secondly."

Ron stretched out his finger and tapped the ground, and squeezed out a few words through his teeth in a bad tone:

"Yi, Li, Sha, Bai! Can you tell me where we are?"

Elizabeth, who was dizzy from the impact of the water gun, rubbed her eyes blankly:

"According to the settings of the teleportation stone, aren't we teleported to the Omir plane? It's strange, why is it so dark here? Oh! Is it just time to go to bed?"

Seeing that she didn't seem to understand the situation, Ron's eyes narrowed slightly and his tone became dangerous:

"Please give me a closer look, or... do you call this the main material plane?"

After realizing it, Miss Succubus glanced around in confusion, and then realized that the world she seemed to be in was "somewhat" different from the plane she had perceived, where birds were singing and flowers were fragrant.

"That's not right. I've checked the teleportation coordinates several times, and everything is correct. We should have appeared in the fertile continent of Omer, how could we?"

Elizabeth took a deep breath. She reviewed the teleportation coordinate verification process countless times in her mind, and each memory told her that she had done an impeccable job.

Miss Succubus, who finally understood the situation, turned her head and looked at her "client" with an embarrassed look.

As the maker of the teleportation stone, she obviously bears the greatest responsibility for such a major mistake.

"Perhaps we just shifted the coordinates a little bit, causing us to be teleported to Omir's interplanetary layer?"

She scratched the back of her head, a guilty smile on her face.

".You say this, do you believe it?"

Ron raised the back of Elizabeth's neck with one hand and pointed at the dead sky angrily: "This is not the Omir plane at all!"

"Why are you so cruel? If you make a mistake, you will make a mistake. Why don't we just teleport it again?"

"You are such a big dragon, why do you still bully me, a poor girl who has no power to restrain a chicken? Even if I am wrong, don't you have nothing wrong at all?"

The succubus lady, who was lifted up like a kitten, pouted her red mouth in grievance and looked at the rainbow dragon in front of her with tears in her eyes, looking like a victim of your bullying of an innocent girl.

Her acting and boxing skills have always been good, but it's a pity that Ron is not a warm-hearted man and doesn't like this at all.

"Haha, my biggest mistake was believing your lies!"

Ron threw her to the ground and said expressionlessly:

"Try it yourself to see if you can activate the teleportation circle here."

"Hmph, just give it a try!"

ten minutes later

After trying space teleportation magic several times to no avail, Elizabeth finally gave up her futile struggle.

She sat down on the ground and said helplessly:

"There seems to be something wrong with the space of this plane. I can't locate the coordinates of other planes. It's like"

Ron on the side took over the words: "It's like being separated from the star realm, the rules are completely chaotic."

Miss Succubus's eyes lit up, as if she had found a soulmate. She nodded quickly and said excitedly: "Yes, right! You feel the same way, right?"

"I feel your size!"

Ron reached out his hand angrily and gave her a merciless shudder: "Is this something worth being excited and happy about?"

"Well!."

A certain former succubus queen who was pretending to be tender covered her head and showed a pitiful expression again:

"I don't want this to happen. Also, don't bully me all the time. I'm not your little golden dragon~~"

"."

Taking a deep breath, Ron resisted the urge to continue consecrating the head of this tea-talking succubus.

He unfolded his dragon wings, turned around and flew high into the sky without saying a word, trying to explore this world to see if there was a way out.

Seeing that the other party no longer "bullied" her, Elizabeth's eyes flashed with a trace of pity and pride.

Elizabeth, who is much older than the Mother of Dragons, is not a real little girl. She just acted like this just to meet the needs of the performance.

She felt that she had figured out Ron's character, and showing weakness was the best way to attack this guy who was soft-hearted but not strong-willed.

"Huh, what a ignorant guy."

After getting up and patting the non-existent dust on her butt, Elizabeth hummed a song she didn't understand and followed silently behind the iridescent dragon.

She was really curious about the world she entered by mistake, and wanted to see who had interfered with the coordinates she had set.

Elizabeth, who had many years of experience working with the gods, knew very well that everything that happened before her eyes was definitely not a so-called coincidence.

To be able to interfere with the teleportation coordinates set by an ancient god, the other party must also be a quasi-god, maybe even a true god.

"But why does this place always give me a familiar feeling?"

Elizabeth muttered and followed Ron.

And in the corner that she didn't pay attention to, a pair of blue dragon eyes were silently looking at the backs of the two of them.

"Damn it, what the hell is this place? Is there no end?"

Ron, who had been flying in the air at close to the speed of light for several hours, couldn't help but mutter in his mind.

According to his speed, even in Karen it was enough to cross the territory of the entire Rose Kingdom, but in this strange world, the surrounding scenery did not change at all, as if he was standing still.

Ron's eyes wandered in the surrounding sky, where countless clocks and hourglasses of different colors hung, quietly flowing time that did not belong to any world.

The hands of the clock move extremely slowly, and some hourglasses even stand still, as if time has lost its meaning here.

His eyes continued to move upward, and at an altitude of hundreds of thousands of meters, he vaguely saw the black stone continent.

The floating land and the timepieces in the sky together formed intricate patterns. Although they looked different, the same thing was that they all maintained a deathly silence.

Ron also went up to check it out, but there was nothing there, just simple stones.

They float silently high in the sky, seemingly never falling.

Thinking of this, Ron couldn't help turning his head and glanced at Elizabeth, who was following behind like a follower. The confusion and surprise in the latter's eyes did not seem to be fake.

"It seems that she did not make the mistake intentionally. So what exactly interfered with the transmission and caused the coordinates to shift?"

Ron frowned, feeling that things were starting to get a little tricky.

However, after all, he is no longer the young dragon that just emerged from the shell of the fire elemental plane.

His strong strength gave him enough confidence to slowly explore everything around him.

"Inside."

Suddenly, Elizabeth's weak voice sounded from behind.

"If you have anything to say, please tell me quickly. My time is precious."

Ron stopped waving his dragon wings and turned to look at her.

Miss Succubus's eyes did not see this. She still kept flying forward at the same speed. She didn't react until Ron lifted her neck again, and she almost hit the arms of the dragon in front of her.

Elizabeth, who was lifted up like a kitten, had no intention of resisting. At this time, she changed from her previous antics and showed a worried look on her face:

"Have you noticed that this place looks a bit familiar?"

After saying that, her eyes wandered around cautiously, as if there were eavesdroppers around.

Just now, she suddenly realized that although the hourglasses and clocks circulated independently, there seemed to be some deep connection between them.

In an instant, Elizabeth had a new understanding in her heart: [This world, the world they accidentally broke into, is not connected by space, but by time! 】

To put it simply, they are not actually traveling in [space], but in [time and space]. This is also the reason why Ron and Elizabeth failed to release space magic - the two concepts of time and space are inseparable to a certain extent. On the other hand, it can be said to be "like glue and paint" but it can also be said to be "incompatible with water and fire".

They are like Tai Chi circles

There is me in you, and you in me, but they are distinct.

Even the apostles and scholars of space and time (beings who master space magic and time magic) will have very different relationships after meeting each other because of this characteristic, such as becoming close friends or mortal enemies.

Except God, of course.

"Familiar? What do you mean?"

Ron didn't quite understand why the former Succubus Queen was so crazy. If he was familiar with her, he wouldn't have been stuck here for a long time without finding a way out.

"What I mean is that we may have entered a space beyond the main plane, a dimension woven from time."

Elizabeth's voice held a tremor that was both fear and awe of the unknown.

"Time. Dimension?" Ron repeated this sentence, his brows furrowed, and a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind:

"What do you mean?"

Miss Succubus nodded, her pupils looking particularly bright in the dim light:

"If my guess is correct, the location we are in now may be a space forgotten by the gods, but I think this is definitely a famous place for you."

"Don't be the Riddler!" Ron simply said.

And Elizabeth didn't show off.

She looked around at the densely packed time clocks of different styles and asked in a low voice:

"Have you heard of the Tomb of Chronippus?" (End of Chapter)
