"My name is Xie Zhi, a cyclist."
"When you see this image, it means that my existence has disappeared from this world and gone to the other side of the world."
"In exchange for the will of the world, I found you from the other side of the world who is watching this image, and became the master of this body in my place."
"Of course, I must admit that there is an element of gambling here. I have to believe that this soul algorithm I came up with in 30,000 cycles is really effective. It can accurately find the connection point between the main world and the small world, and also I can find a qualified person from the main world who can replace me."
“At the same time, for me, although the cycle is infinite, if I really enter the process of crossing over, the identity of the cycler will disappear. In other words, the cycle that belongs to me will end at the moment I travel through. "
"So, in my research on the soul algorithm and time-travel process, I can only use infinite loops for trial and error and repair in the first half of the process, and in the second half, I can only pray that there are not too many bugs in the algorithm."
"Anyway, if you can successfully see this image I left, it means that my plan was ultimately successful, even if there may be a slight glitch in the process."
...
Zhou You stood under the dim sky, looking at the huge twisted bubble, with the texture of the sun, moon and clouds, hanging from the sky like egg liquid. Another self showed in the twisted bubble.
But Zhou You knew that it was not him, it was Xie Zhi's photo of him in this special way.
The emotional incarnation projection of Crazy Scissors stands next to the distortion bubble. When the distortion bubble hangs down, Crazy Scissors' body becomes an amplifier. No sound is transmitted outside the distortion bubble. All sounds are transmitted through Crazy Scissors.
In other words, the distortion bubble serves as a display screen that projects the past into the present, and the emotional embodiment is the external speaker of this display screen.
From Xie Zhi's message, Zhou You finally understood the essence of his experience these days.
The good news is that I am indeed a time traveler, not some kind of second personality or third personality of Xie Zhi, who took over Xie Zhi's life after his death.
But the bad news is that his time travel may not be so "conventional". In other words, he is not actually the protagonist of the time travel. On the contrary, because the real protagonist escaped the script he was supposed to undertake through time travel, Zhou You became Xie Zhi's Instead, I came to this time travel.
Traveling through time and space is just a by-product of Xie Zhi’s time traveling.
Xie Zhi traveled from the giant moon world to modern times. In the giant moon world, Xie Zhi's body had a soul vacancy. Therefore, the soul algorithm grabbed Zhou You from the real world where Zhou You was.
Zhou You continued to sort out the information from Xie Zhi. At the same time, Xie Zhi continued to convey information through crazy scissors and hanging yellow twisted bubbles, until Zhou You felt that his entire brain was stuck together like a lake of liquid. Xie Zhi The sound finally stopped, and the Hanged Man in the Crazy Scissors and Distortion bubble looked at Xie Zhi expressionlessly.
"The transmission of memory has ended."
Crazy Scissors talks to Zhou.
"My mind is a little messed up, please let me sort it out..."
Zhou You sighed. Xie Zhi kept throwing all kinds of new terms at him in the twisted bubble like a machine gun pouring beans. He could only receive some of them in fragments and integrate some scattered keywords.
He needed time to sort it out.
"The Klein Bubble can last for twelve hours. During these twelve hours, the time in the outside world will become relatively static due to the existence of the Klein Bubble."
Crazy Scissors spoke again,
"You can fully absorb the information from Xie Zhi during these twelve hours. After twelve hours, the Klein bubble constructed using the Satisfaction Mask will burst, and only your memory can be brought out from this stillness. "
"Wait, Satisfaction Mask?"
Zhou You noticed the keywords uttered by Crazy Scissors. Even though Crazy Scissors said some rare words that Zhou You could not understand, he still keenly found some cause and effect from these rare words.
"Is the mask of satisfaction mentioned here the damaged mask I saw in Tianguang Building?"
Crazy Scissors nodded and told Xie Zhi that his guess was right.
"The correct use of the Satisfaction Mask is to use the moment when the human spirit is enveloped by emotions to the extreme to create a hole in the mind, and such a hole can be used as a bubble of memory. The gram created in this way The Origin Bubble is directly connected to the public sea of consciousness and is not controlled by any cycle, so it can be used as a medium to bridge cycles and transmit information..."
"Okay, you don't need to say anything, let me think about it myself."
Zhou You sighed again.
He felt like he was in a math class.
The teacher wrote a whole blackboard on the blackboard, with a bunch of complicated fixed formulas in his left hand and a bunch of new symbols and terms that he couldn't understand in his right hand. All he could do was to memorize this blackboard writing in his mind first. , and then slowly think about what the things on the blackboard mean, and what is the real solution to this question.
I don't understand what the public sea of consciousness is, nor what is the bridge between spiritual hollow and Klein Bubble, but fortunately Xie Zhi has enough time left so that I don't need to use it during these twelve hours. In the face of external interference, just absorb and digest these "knowledge points" wholeheartedly.
Even if you are a scumbag, you can still understand it a little bit.
"Do you have paper and pen?" Zhou You stretched out his hand towards Crazy Scissors.
"Time has stopped. The only thing you can mobilize in Klein Bubble is your spirit." Crazy Scissors means that there is nothing that can be done to help.
Zhou You could only exhale and then rubbed his face.
"Where's the incarnation?"
"It is possible to open an incarnation, and due to the expansion of the Klein Bubble, the energy consumption when summoning the incarnation will not be reflected in your body. During these twelve hours, you can continue to summon the incarnation."
"Isn't it possible to incarnate as well...you think it's OK?"
"Yeah, okay."
…
Crimson Oath, wearing a red wedding dress, appeared next to Xie Zhi. It could be seen that Crimson Oath was also very surprised by his sudden appearance.
The expansion of Klein Bubble not only brought Zhou You to the realm where time stood still, but also separated the original emotional transformation into the summoning of the incarnation. In other words, when Zhou You summoned the Crimson Oath, in this area of the school, Appearing simultaneously in the memory illusion were Zhou You in school uniform and another in a red wedding dress.
The two Zhou You glanced at each other and said in unison,
"I think I understand why I feel so hungry after every emotional transformation. It turns out that the essence of emotional transformation is to maintain the survival of two humanoids at the same time."
After the Crimson Oath was summoned, Zhou You clearly felt that his five senses and thinking ability had been greatly strengthened, and the strong hunger in the past did not appear. It seemed that Klein Bubble had indeed achieved the effect of stopping time.
After thinking for a moment, Zhou You asked Crazy Scissors to replay the Klein Bubble information left by Xie Zhi. The two Zhou You recorded the information at the same time, and tried to organize and retell the information in the twisted bubble into the truth that they could understand.
This time, the "knowledge points" left by Xie Zhi were finally sorted out by Zhou You.
…
The first is Xie Zhi’s identity.
From the information left by Xie Zhi, Zhou You realized that Xie Zhi's true identity is actually a "cycler". Starting from his awakening ability to cycle, every time he dies, he will be in a predetermined time. Nodes and scene nodes are reborn, and that node is Room 2805 of Tianguang Building.
Before Xie Zhi finally left this world as a time traveler, Xie Zhi had cycled 30,000 times. The result of each cycle was to die at a certain node in the future, and every time he died, he would carry it with him until All the memories of death were reawakened in Tianguang Building.
Zhou You doesn't know how long each cycle of Xie Zhi can last, but judging from his own experience in these days, everything Xie Zhi experienced after waking up from Tianguang Building was a narrow escape, and it was possible. Let him end this cycle directly. Whether it was the attack I experienced in Tianguang Building, the Third Hospital, the Emotional Counseling Center, or in the school auditorium.
If we take the attack planned by the Death Bird and the Human Balance in the school auditorium as the average of the cycle time, then each time Xie Zhi recycles, the time to look back is about 10 days.
Thirty thousand cycles, which means that he stayed at least 821 years during the entire cycle.
And as he controls the details of events and battles after each cycle, it is impossible for Xie Zhi to experience only 10 days in each cycle. 821 years is just a minimum estimate. He actually survives in the huge moon world. The time is at least more than a thousand years, and can even reach more than ten thousand years...
Zhou You scratched his head.
The character he traveled to seems to be more like the protagonist than the Long Aotian protagonists he imagined.
Changing places, if you can repeat your life infinitely in infinite time and retain the memory of each cycle, then after 30,000 times, you may be able to learn most of the knowledge systems in the world.
If Zhou You were asked to imagine the strongest ability in the world, that would probably be the limit of what his imagination could reach.
Infinitely reopen, infinitely learn, and finally become omnipotent.
But, if Xie Zhi really has such an ability, why would he help his soul escape from this world through a high-tech product he calls the soul algorithm after 30,000 cycles?
Is it because of the emptiness and loneliness that will inevitably be reached after thousands of years of repetition?
Or is it because... even though he has repeated the cycle thirty thousand times, there is still a life-and-death crisis that Xie Zhi cannot solve and will inevitably face before him?
Zhou You narrowed his eyes and looked at the twisted and weird Klein Bubble in front of him.
Everything in the sky merged into one, falling slowly into the air like gel and asphalt.
Can't figure it out.
Zhou You shook his head.
But all in all, the previous owner of his body was a super strong man who could be reborn in an infinite cycle of time. After 30,000 cycles, he chose to leave and projected his soul to the place where he traveled through the soul algorithm. world, and like a bull's head and a horse's face seducing souls, it lures the wandering souls away from the real world.
It sounds like Xie Zhi is the real time traveler. At this moment, maybe he is in his body before time travel, carrying the memory of 30,000 cycles, performing a drama like "The God of War is Reborn and Enters the Earth" in real life. .
And this "traveler" himself is actually a by-product that will definitely occur after Xie Zhi travels through time.
I am actually a reverse time traveler.
Zhou You sighed. He felt that he always liked to sigh since time travel.
I always experience emergencies that I can’t solve, and I’m always pushed to the brink of life and death by various superhuman characters. I always feel, “Are events like this really something a college student like me should experience?” ?", and always serves as the center of conspiracy and the stage itself for multi-party melee.
Things like this kept happening, and at this moment I finally found the reason.
It turns out that according to the script written by the original owner Xie Zhi, these "edges of life and death" were nothing to him.
Anyway, he can continue to be reborn and hone himself. No matter how difficult the memory illusion is, no matter how lifeless the multi-party melee is, Xie Zhi will definitely find a glimmer of hope in the endless road after being reborn many times...
But when it comes to myself, the most critical "circulation" ability is missing, which makes these events extremely "out of line" for me.
Crazy Scissors told Zhou You that unlike Xie Zhi's infinite loop, Zhou You's physical function and consciousness strength only allowed him to loop three times.
Because Zhou You is not the ultimate adapter like Xie Zhi, but was temporarily dragged from another world by Xie Zhi as a "replacement product of the replacement reaction", and thus came to this body with the ability to circulate.
"Okay, okay, I know what you mean."
Zhou You rolled his eyes.
"What you mean is that Xie Zhi is a perfect creature, and I am just a defective product that passively traveled through time, right?"
Crazy Scissors nodded, showing a helpless expression.
It seems that if Xie Zhi had not traveled alone, he would have followed Xie Zhi.
"Then let's go. Aren't you the incarnation of Xie Zhi's emotions? Theoretically speaking, you will retain some of Xie Zhi's 30,000-cycle memory, right? You can also create a soul algorithm, so we can time travel together. Already?"
Crazy Scissors shrugged and said,
"Actually, it has been taken away. I am just a temporary copy."
Crazy Scissors asked Zhou You to recall everything that happened in Tianguang Building, until he recalled the episode in the Thought Palace when he put all his spiritual energy into Zhou You's body to save Zhou You from the threat of Mani, the son of the moon.
"When Xie Zhi left, he took the real Crazy Scissors with him, which was equivalent to copying the system from the system disk. After that, he formatted the entire original system, and then handed over the entire computer system to The new user is you."
"Theoretically, if you are a cycle-qualified person of the same level as Xie Zhi, then I don't need to save you that time in the Tianguang Building. It's just a matter of cycling a few more times, waiting for you to pass your ability. After breaking through Tianguang Building, I, as the incarnation of emotions, will find a suitable time to appear."
"But it's a pity that your body is so broken that it will fall into the sea of despair almost all the time. This also leads to the fact that the circulation ability that should be endless can only take effect on you three times at most. After three times, your Consciousness can no longer bear the confusion caused by this cycle."
"So, that time in Tianguang Tower, I could only take action and use the only spiritual energy in my body to help you break through the Moon Son's fatal attack. After all, you and I are one. If your cycle is terminated, I Our existence will also come to an end."
"But it is also because of my actions that the remaining energy I have cannot maintain the state of the incarnation summon. I can only integrate with your body like a seed, and achieve the unity of emotional transformation with you."
Zhou You suddenly realized that this was how he survived in Tianguang Building.
He thought it was a few roommates who killed the huge moon balloon in the end, but he didn't expect that he got the killing blow himself.
"Then do you remember what happens next?"
Zhou You thought for a long time and finally asked Crazy Scissors.
Crazy Scissors slowly shook his head.
"I have no idea."
"In the previous 30,000 cycles, I have never experienced anything like this."
"Xie Zhi has never achieved the unity of emotional transformation with me."
Crazy Scissors told the truth that made Zhou You's eyes widen.
"None of the 30,000 times?"
Crazy Scissors continued to shake his head, "Yes, not even once."
Then what he said made Zhou You's eyes widen even more.
Crazy Scissors said,
"After you merge with me, the direction of the entire world will be completely different from the part of the memory I originally retained."
"At the same time, the part of memory belonging to Xie Zhi gradually became like a dream. Until now, I can't think of it myself."
