[Endless Killing: My Fireball has a bug! – Chapter 176 The Principle of Time!]
When the “egg” broke the shell, Lin Chuan was actually quite curious.
Will this resurrection be successful?
His mood is much more complicated than Gong Shiyi’s.
Time is a very complex concept.
Whether in his past life or this life, Lin Chuan had never heard of the existence of “time-related” talents or skills.
He even heard a theory at a scientist’s lecture in the origin plane –
Time cannot be defined by the laws of physics; it is an empty existence.
In other words, time is something that does not exist objectively at all!
Rather, it is a concept created by humans to make it easier to understand the world.
The passage of time corresponds to the changing laws of the world.
The specific explanations given by scientists use a lot of professional terms and sound very complicated and difficult to understand.
Lin Chuan simply understood the other party’s point of view in his own way.
In that scientist’s view, the essence of time lies in “change”.
It is a concept created by humans in order to more clearly understand the “changing” laws of the world.
Let’s take the simplest example:
Lin Chuan bought a space rune the day before.
If we understand it from the perspective of human beings’ inherent concept of time, this matter is very simple.
That is, in the rune space, “time” is still.
So the same way you put things in, you take them out the same way you put them in.
However, scientists have explained the nature of the phenomenon of “time standing still” from another perspective:
From the perspective of scientists, time does not exist.
In the “time” that normal humans perceive, hot food will get cold and food will spoil.
But its essence is not the so-called passage of “time”, but the conversion of energy and the movement of particles.
When energy stops converting and particles stop moving, every particle is in an absolutely “unchanged” state.
This constitutes the concept of “time standing still” which is easy for humans to understand.
The concept of “the passage of time” as understood by humans is, in essence, the law of the dynamic change of the world.
These stable laws of change have been set by humans into time concepts such as seconds, minutes, hours, and days.
Even the concept of “heaven” corresponds to very obvious laws of world change.
Ruwu is just an ordinary person, living a simple life.
Then citing the concept of “time” can indeed make it easier for people to understand the changes in the world and live more conveniently.
But if humans want to master the ability to “manipulate time”, they must understand the nature of time!
Facts have proven that humans in the last days have indeed done it!
They stop the conversion of some energy and the movement of some particles, so that some particles will not “change”.
Finally, the concept of “time” really stopped!
That is the principle of time standing still in the rune space!
However, understanding the principle does not mean that it can be done easily!
The difficulty of manipulating “time” lies in that you have to precisely manipulate the movement at the particle level and perfectly “promote” or “inhibit” the transfer of energy.
Even before this, a complete closed system must be constructed!
The rune space was originally a complete closed system.
Therefore, it is relatively easy for people to achieve stillness of “time” through it.
But it is very difficult to construct a single object into a closed system and then create a “time-still” state!
Because the particle structure, energy conversion, etc. involved in a single object are really too complicated!
Not only is it complex internally, you also have to cut off its energy interaction with the outside world and make it a closed system.
Not to mention, in actual combat, you can achieve more difficult operations such as “time speed-up” and “time slow-down”!
Even in the original plane, Lin Chuan had never heard of anyone who could control “time” in battle.
Even for a single object to experience “time stopping” is extremely rare!
Available now!
It seemed that he was about to see it with his own eyes!
The warm white light that enveloped the child’s body spread out in all directions, forming a dazzling light!
Gong Shiyi didn’t blink at all, the light almost pierced her eyes to tears.
The little boy in the light and shadow, like a newborn baby, closed his eyes slowly and confusedly.
He subconsciously raised his hands to cover his neck.
As if he remembered something, his eyes were filled with fear, as if he was suffering from extreme fear!
He trembled all over and suddenly covered his mouth, only his big black eyes could not stop shedding tears.
Gong Shiyi’s tears, pierced by the light, also rolled down.
He rushed over, hugged the child tightly, and comforted him emotionally in his haggard voice: “Xiao Mian… don’t be afraid, we have all passed the test, we have all passed the test, it is safe here, Dad can protect you…”
After hearing this, the child finally hugged Gong Shiyi and cried out loud.
The next moment is the sentimental moment.
Gong Shiyi constantly soothed the child’s emotions while taking out food and water from the space and feeding the child.
Afterwards, I tried hard to organize my words and simply explain the end of the world to the children.
The child was only about five years old. Although he looked more obedient and sensible than ordinary children, he was actually too young.
Gong Shiyi has tried very hard to explain many things, but the children still find it difficult to understand.
There was no other way, Gong Shiyi could only force a smile and continue to coax the child, saying, “It doesn’t matter if you don’t understand, Daddy will protect you.”
“Yes!” The child nodded solemnly and clenched his fists, “I will protect Daddy too!”
Gong Shiyi’s eyes were red, but a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
That was a smile of happiness and satisfaction, just because at that moment, his son was alive.
He prepared his son’s favorite chicken meal.
Then, he calmed down a little and looked at Lin Chuan.
His eyes were complicated, and after a moment of silence, he approached Lin Chuan.
He got very close to Lin Chuan.
As he carefully spread out his palm, he lowered his voice and said, “These three leaves are the price I am prepared to pay!”
It was understandable, and Lin Chuan was not too surprised.
He lowered his eyes and scanned Gong Shiyi’s palm.
There, there are three green ginkgo leaves.
However, on one of the leaves, the clear green was stained with nearly 30% to 40% yellow!
Before he could ask anything, Gong Shiyi lowered his voice and said, “The green color of the ginkgo leaf seems to represent vitality and time. It can make time stand still!”
“When its ability to stop time is completely exhausted, its leaves will turn completely from green to yellow.”
“You must have guessed it. The way I saved my son was by using the power of the ginkgo leaf!”
Lin Chuan took the three leaves from his hand, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and asked Gong Shiyi how to use the leaves.
Gong Shiyi’s explanation is consistent with Lin Chuan’s understanding of “time” in his previous life.
First, there are two ways to use ginkgo leaves.
Infuse mental energy into the leaf, and grasp the leaf on your body.
Then, with oneself as the center, within a certain range of space, the phenomenon of time standing still will occur!
Of course, for me who is at the center of the dot, time does not stop, some energy operates normally.
This method of use will not only consume a lot of mental energy, but will also cause the leaves to turn yellow quickly.
The second method is also the method Gong Shiyi used to preserve his son’s body –
Similarly, focus your mental energy on the leaves, and then place the leaves on your son’s body.
Just keep focusing your mental energy during this period and keep Ye Zi in a static state.
You can stop the time of a single object!
This method requires the continuous use of mental strength.
This is also the reason why Gong Shiyi always drinks blue wine.
It’s not that he’s an alcoholic, nor is it for show.
This was because, in order to preserve his son’s body, he was consuming his mental energy all the time!
At the same time, Gong Shiyi discovered through experiments that
The simpler the object to manipulate time, the less mental energy is consumed.
The more complex the object, the more mental energy it consumes.
Gong Shiyi once tried to use leaves to stop time for the living.
But the fact is, this requires too much mental effort and leaf energy!
He only managed to stay still for a few seconds before his mental strength was exhausted and the entire leaf quickly turned yellow!
Gong Shiyi slowly recounted what he knew about ginkgo leaves.
After listening to him, Lin Chuan suddenly asked, “You only have three of these leaves? Where did you get them from?”
