Chapter 168
After using the tracing water drops, accompanied by a familiar feeling of traveling through time, Ye Bai and Ottophis once again appeared in the familiar basement of the lord's mansion.
After checking the territory log, Ye Bai discovered that this round trip to the Divine Realm took a total of seven game days, which was much shorter than she expected. It seemed that as her strength increased, the time it took to travel through the Divine Realm through the Well of Origin was constantly shortening.
Then Ye Bai picked up the branch of life that was used as a pendant to check. In addition to the paper man living on it, the traction countdown was still displayed. It seemed that it had not become invalid due to crossing a realm. At the same time, the time on the countdown had been reduced by three days.
It seems that three days is the time it takes Ye Bai to travel to the God Realm in one direction. In this way, she can also arrange the time for the next trip in advance.
Walking out of the basement, Ye Bai could see through the window that it was still dark outside. The whole city was quiet at night, with only a few professionals such as the night guards still working. The source energy crystal street lamps lit up the main roads, bringing a unique sense of security to the city.
After quietly admiring the White Night City under the night sky for a while, Ye Bai walked into the master bedroom of the lord's mansion and logged off to return to reality.
Not long after, Ye Bai opened his eyes in the ether laboratory.
As soon as he returned to reality and moved his body slightly, Ye Bai felt the improvements and changes he had gained from this trip to the God Realm.
The fruit of life is not an equipment, but the attribute bonus it provides is actually given to Ye Bai. When she returned to reality, she felt that her cell activity had reached its peak. Both her body and spirit were full and powerful as never before, and she even felt like venting.
Ye Bai just happened to return to reality. Besides the fact that it was still night in the game, his main purpose was to test the effects of his new skills.
[Historical Tour] only has a release cost and cooldown time on both the career page and the sub-job page, without any content. However, its price is the same as [Time Rewind], which shows that it is not simple.
Historical tour, historical tour... Pondering the possible meaning of this skill, Ye Bai closed his eyes and released this new skill.
The next moment, Ye Bai felt a feeling of heightened consciousness, which was almost the same as the feeling of time going back. Her past experiences were played back in front of her, and both the experiences in the divine world and the real world were unfolding before her.
Afterwards, looking at the items he had handled before, Ye Bai naturally understood what "touring" meant.
The previous time travel could only trace back Ye Bai's own past state, but this ability can really retrieve items from her past experiences.
Ye Bai's consciousness was shaken when he sensed this - what kind of unlimited freeloading is this?!
Almost subconsciously, Ye Bai wanted to bring all the equipment he had in the game into reality.
But she soon discovered that even the Code of Death in her hand in the historical scene, any piece of equipment on her body, and even some ordinary plants in the game scene, were so heavy that it seemed as if there was a thick barrier in their existence that was hindering her and preventing her from succeeding.
Is this... the legendary dimensional wall? Surprised, Ye Bai couldn't help but complain in his heart.
However, her previous second-level class, the Lawbreaker's ability, allowed her to bring in-game skills into reality. Furthermore, many interstellar players active in the Myriad Realms gained a boost in real-world spiritual power upon leveling up. Could breaking through the 'dimensional wall' be conditional? Thinking of this, Ye Bai's consciousness searched through various items from his past experiences.
Finally, the scene goes back to the dream of the Emerald Forest, when Inollucia gave her the fruit of the Tree of Life.
If there is a dimensional wall, can game props that can affect reality be brought out? So, Ye Bai stopped paying attention to her equipment and used her invisible virtual hand to "reach" for the fruit of the Tree of Life that she had eaten.
"Bang..."
Ye Bai seemed to hear a sound of something breaking, and then her mental power was rapidly consumed. The fruit of the Tree of Life in her past experience was "torn" out of a translucent shadow under the grasp of the virtual hand and fell into her hand.
The next moment, the 'past' moved forward rapidly, and Ye Bai returned to the 'present'.
From her mental perspective, her naturally extended mental power now 'grasped' a ball of energy full of vitality.
Ye Bai was so shocked by this scene that he lost his mind. With a slight tremor of his spiritual body, the already fragile energy began to dissipate rapidly.
Seeing this, Ye Bai reacted immediately, took a deep breath, and then quickly stabilized his mental strength. He carefully wrapped up the ball of energy, and then operated the ether laboratory to study it.
Ye Bai did not obtain much property-type spoils from the "Black Hole", but he obtained the other party's most valuable intellectual heritage.
In the past, she took time out every day to learn this knowledge, supplemented by B-level mental power and ether laboratory. Although Ye Bai's current level is not that of a great scientist, she at least has the ability to independently use this high-tech laboratory to conduct research.
Soon, through analysis, Ye Bai quickly confirmed that this energy brought from the fruit of the Historical Tree of Life was indeed a special energy with extremely strong restorative and active power.
Through analysis of the large number of samples stored in the black hole, its essence is somewhat similar to the power released by healing abilities.
In order to achieve the best experimental effect, Ye Bai gritted his teeth and hit his arm.
"hiss……"
Blood immediately oozed out of the wound. Ye Bai controlled her muscles and did not let them automatically tighten the wound. With her current physical condition, if she did not intentionally control it, the bleeding could be controlled the moment the wound occurred, and the wound would probably heal with only a barely visible blood line.
Then Ye Bai drew some energy and applied it to the wound.
Accompanied by a cool, numb and itchy feeling, this energy was like an eraser. Wherever it passed, Ye Bai's wounds were directly smoothed out and completely restored to their original state.
Although Ye Bai's healing ability is now very strong, and the newly acquired title of "Natural Shelter" also increases the speed of health recovery, it is definitely not to this extent.
However, apart from the powerful recovery ability, the various abilities possessed by the real Tree of Life Fruit were not increased. It only brought out the temporary special effect of the Tree of Life Fruit after consumption, "Life Surge", which is the extremely strong recovery ability part.
After this experiment, Ye Bai figured out the current effect of [Historical Tour] in reality: it can only bring out a limited variety of game props, and they are intangible. Equipment and permanent effects that can constantly enhance one's own strength cannot be brought out.
Even so, the current effect of being able to bring out the fruit of life is enough to make Ye Bai excited, because she feels that this is not the upper limit of this ability, but the upper limit of her current strength.
If your strength improves in the future, you might be able to "bring" items out of the game.
Moreover, in this experiment, Ye Bai is trying to make a huge leap from game to reality. If it is changed to 'reality to reality, game to game', without the 'dimensional wall', will the effect be different?
At the same time, Ye Bai was also extremely curious. What would happen when two objects from the past and the present existed at the same time?
After choosing to gather this ball of life energy into the future as a 'medicine', Ye Bai began his own tests.
At present, [Historical Tour] has entered a cooling-down state, but [Time Rewind] has not.
Realistic experimental items...
The skill cooldown time is one day, so it would be a waste to use ordinary things as test subjects. After thinking for a moment, Ye Bai's gaze finally fell on the jade terminal under the skin of his arm.
Taking out the jade terminal and holding it in his hand, Ye Bai communicated with it through mental power and spent 20 points to purchase the ether laboratory to charge it.
The points were consumed, and the next moment, Ye Bai received a reminder that the energy of the Ether Laboratory was full.
Just like the micro wormhole, this laboratory, whose exact location even Ye Bai didn't know, completed the charging process. The reason for this was that she had seen a record of black hole charging in the laboratory log.
After doing all this, Ye Bai's current star points totaled 2236.
Then Ye Bai immediately used [Time Rewind] to reset the cooling time of [Historical Tour], and she used Historical Tour again.
This time, Ye Bai only went back a short time, to the time before she bought the recharge.
With her will infinitely elevated, she stretched out her hand towards the jade terminal that used to be in her hand.
The cool touch of the middle of the jade fell into his hand, and the scene in front of him "moved forward", and Ye Bai returned to the present.
As if her soul had returned to its place, Ye Bai saw the two jade terminals in her hands overlap in front of her, and then merged into one at an extremely fast speed. If she had not been paying attention to all this, she probably would not have noticed it at all.
Ye Bai picked up the jade terminal and carefully examined its appearance. It was still as round and smooth as before, with no change in appearance, weight or texture.
It turns out that things that existed in the past and present will merge and will not exist at the same time.
After confirming this, Ye Bai, with a bit of trepidation and anticipation, invested his mental energy into the terminal in his hand.
Immediately, Ye Bai's whole body shook.
The terminal has the same functions and user numbers as before, but this terminal mainly serves as a platform and wallet, and the number of points now is 2256.
Ye Bai had specially purchased a laboratory charger just to test this hypothesis.
And the fact is just as she thought, [Historical Tour] does not cross dimensions, and its effect is like [Time Rewind] acting on items, which replaces the current state of items with the past state, so the points value that Ye Bai had before purchasing the recharge also came back.
Ye Bai had an idea and connected to the Ether Laboratory again. The energy was still full - the target of the patrol was not it, and it was still in the state it should be in now.
"It's really freeloading..."
After waiting for a while, the points in the terminal still did not change. It seemed that as long as Ye Bai did not use his time ability on it again, it would remain in this state forever, and the 'present' would be completely replaced by the 'past'.
As for the inconsistent accounts behind the charging of the Ether Laboratory, how to balance them in the end, Ye Bai didn't know, but now, if he didn't take into account the potential risks that this anonymous terminal might bring -
It can be said that the exchange area is free for Ye Bai from now on.
