Chapter 1469 Accident and Departure Again

Just like the previous hunter's cabin, after the collapse of this space based on Vivian's dream, Hao Ren still retained a certain range of "safety zone" around him. This was a grassland with a radius of only a few hundred meters, and on the edge of the grassland , a shimmering space crack has opened.

The space crack is the crack left after the Rose Gate exploded before - now its shape has changed, becoming more solid, and there is a faint ray of light coming from the crack. Hao Ren knew that it was the passage leading to the next fragment of time and space, just like the wooden door of the hunter's cabin before.

"You can enter the next time and space through that door," Hao Ren pointed at the crack. "If there is anything else to do, get ready here."

"Is there anything we need to prepare?" Hesiana shrugged. "We just entered this time and space with consciousness, and we didn't bring in anything from the future. The only equipment we have at hand can be useful. That one over there , do you have anything to prepare?"

Facing the little bat spirit's unkind tone, Hasselblad was not angry and just said lightly: "It's nothing, let's go."

"Okay, okay, let's go then~~"

Lily was probably the one who was most looking forward to the next adventure. She couldn't wait to know what the time and space on the other side of the rift looked like, so she ran over happily. But just when she was about to touch the rift, she His body suddenly stopped for a moment.

I don't know if it is accurate to use "stasis" to describe what happened, but Hao Ren really didn't know what happened: he saw Lily's body suddenly covered with a layer of gray-white, as if the surrounding "people" had been solidified by time and space. "images of the past". As gray-white covered her body, Lily suddenly stood still in mid-air as if the pause button had been pressed. Her breath also quickly left the world, and her entire body became a fixed image. .

The "stasis" did not last long. In fact, just when Hesiana, who had witnessed all this, was about to exclaim, Lily suddenly returned to normal. The latter fell from the air and staggered for two steps before barely regaining his balance. Then he raised his head and looked around in confusion, as if he was a bit fragmented.

"Landlord, landlord, I seemed to have suddenly returned to the real world just now. I also saw May, Sanba and the others!"

The husky girl scratched her hair, looked back at Hao Ren and said with a confused expression.

Hao Ren and the other two people spoke almost at the same time: "What happened just now?"

"Of course I don't know!" Lily shouted confidently, crossing her arms.

"Could it be that the signal is poor?" Hesiana said this, and then explained, "Look, except for you, don't all of us enter this world with consciousness? The body is in the real world, receiving In this world, there are only brain waves jumping around, just like wifi. Maybe when the wifi becomes unstable, won't we stop moving here?"

This little bat spirit seems to have a very different approach...

And just when Hao Ren was worried about whether something was going to happen to Lily, Lily's temperament suddenly changed.

Yes, from a second-rate B to a funny B...

Hao Ren is no longer unfamiliar with this kind of change. Lily had changed like this once before when he completed the Siberian backtracking. He knew what happened: Raven 12345 used Lily as a springboard to project his consciousness into this time and space.

He quickly explained the situation of Lily being possessed to Hesiana and Hasu, and then said before Raven 12345 could speak: "Boss, what happened just now? Something is wrong with Lily's situation."

"Is the signal bad?" Hesiana also threw out her guess, and then explained her thoughts in detail.

Unexpectedly, Raven 12345 actually nodded: "You really guessed it by mistake... Although the situation is a bit off, it is generally the result of 'poor signal'."

Hao Ren suddenly became nervous: "The sandbox system is malfunctioning? The people projected in can't continue their activities?"

Hesiana became frustrated when she heard this: "Don't! I just came in and haven't done anything yet. I was hoping to see Lady Vivian in history. Now I'm going back?"

Raven 12345 interrupted Hao Ren and Hesiana's speculation: "It's not what you think, not everyone who is projected in will be kicked out - it's because Hao Ren, as your retracement process deepens, the distance from your current time coordinate is getting farther and farther. The farther away you are, the harder it will be to survive.”

Hao Ren was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding: "Um...boss, can you explain it more clearly?"

Raven 12345 seemed to have known about Hao Ren's question for a long time, and was not impatient. Instead, he explained carefully: "You are going back to ancient times along the timeline, so from the timeline, you are getting farther and farther away." Modern', and everyone around you has a fixed threshold for their active time in history. Lily was active within one hundred years of modern times, Hessiana was first active in the first year of AD, and Hasselblad was first active in BC. For more than four thousand years...the original positions of these people in history are like stations, and the process of your continuous tracing back, Hao Ren, is to fly past these stations and fly all the way to a farther point in time."

Hao Ren vaguely realized what was happening: "People who enter this world with consciousness rely on the body in this time and space to move around, but as I continue to look back, they have transcended the era of their birth - — Will their 'existence' lose support as they continue to look back?"

"You are very smart," Raven 12345 gave a rare compliment, "That's it, the helpers around you will enter the era one by one before they were born, and their existence in that time and space will create paradoxes—— The sandbox system can buffer this paradoxical effect, and the consciousness they transmitted to the past can also forcefully support their activities around you, but as the backtracking process continues, the pressure the system can withstand will become greater and greater. I put The point in time when those friends around you first started to act is called their 'historical reference point'. As you continue to enter the ancient times, they will become further and further away from their 'reference point' in history. The transmission becomes more and more difficult, and finally... the connection can only be disconnected."

Hao Ren thought of Lily's behavior just now: she was obviously offline.

"The further away from my active period in real history, the harder it will be to connect, right?" Hao Ren frowned, "In other words, as I continue to enter the ancient era, Lily will be unable to connect first, Then Hessiana, then Hasselblad…”

"In the end, you will be the only one left," Raven 12345 said lightly, "because in the original ancient times, none of your friends were born. They were active on the earth ten thousand years ago and you still knew them. There is only one person, and that is Vivian Ancesta.”

"What an unexpected situation," Hao Ren couldn't help but sigh, "I originally thought that I could collect friends along the way, and finally form an elite group to sweep the entire dungeon... In the end, I was the only one who dared to love me. one person."

Hasselblad also understood the whole process, and the old hunter's question was more practical: "How long can we persist after crossing our own 'historical benchmark', that is, the year of birth?"

"It's hard to say, there are too many variables, and there are no precedents to follow. I can only make a rough calculation... Even if you cross your own historical benchmark, you should be able to continue your activities for one or two thousand years," Raven 12345 said cautiously, "So actually you don't have to worry too much about being kicked out immediately after crossing the benchmark point. You can still move around for a long time."

Hao Ren sighed: "It looks like Lily will be the first to leave."

Hesiana shook her head: "There is no way, she is the youngest among us."

"But I'm quite satisfied," Hao Ren laughed. "Just now I thought you would have to leave soon after you crossed your historical benchmark. I didn't expect you could still live for one or two thousand years. This margin has exceeded me. Expected. If you think about it, even Lily can hang out with us until the first year of the Christian era..."

"I thought you would be very shocked," Raven 12345 looked at Hao Ren's performance through Lily's eyes, her tone was half-smiling, "After all, the situation is getting worse."

Hao Ren's performance was very free and easy: "It's nothing worse. It's better to say that I started this retrospective journey with the determination to go alone. Now I have so many helpers - even if they are temporary - —This is already better than initially expected.”

"Very good, it seems that I saw the right person," Raven 12345 smiled (although it was Lily's face), "My connection is also starting to become unstable, so I'll leave it here. I will explain it after I go back. Find ways to widen the fault-tolerant bandwidth of the sandbox system, which can allow your friends to maintain a continuous and stable connection as much as possible before 'exiting'..."

Raven 12345's voice gradually became lower, and her breath gradually left Lily's body. The latter stayed there for a while with her head lowered, and suddenly woke up: "Landlord, I seemed to have lost my body again just now..."

"Raven 12345 came just now," Hao Ren waved his hand, "Lily, I want to tell you something."

He told the husky girl in front of him exactly what happened with the "historical reference point" and the "interruption of consciousness projection connection".

Although Lily seemed careless, she was never vague on such complex issues that required strong understanding. She quickly understood the whole process and showed a regretful look: "Oh - so I can only follow you. A paragraph... I thought I could see a giant bat from ten thousand years ago in one go."

Hao Ren responded with a helpless smile, while Hesiana next to him thought of another thing: "By the way, weren't you the leader of the demon hunters in your last life? If we calculate the historical benchmark for you from that life on, you actually You can follow Hao Ren to the end..."

"Nothing, nothing," Lily waved her hands carelessly, "I am Liu Lily in this life, and I am no longer the same person as I was in my previous life."

Hao Ren glanced at her: "Then don't you always call yourself the Demon Hunter Emperor?"

"Just talking," Lily smiled easily, "I just want to pretend to be X. I know that the number one saint of demon hunters and Liu Lili from the southern suburbs have been together for two lives, so don't expect what happened in the previous life."

Seeing the serious expression on her face, Hao Ren nodded, took a long breath and looked towards the space rift not far away.

Lily also looked over, and then still walked ahead: "Let's go, landlord."

Without any hesitation, the group of four stepped into the twisted time and space with an unknown future.
