Chapter 383 Time Moves (4452)
Amidst the vast sky and earth, a giant pillar stands upright in the clouds.
In the "holding station" on the first floor of the Lorin Tower, Adam Meyers curled up in a corner of the interrogation table, trembling all over.
This is Lorin Tower!
The infamous Lorin Tower!
The nightmare place of all chaotic creatures - Lorin Tower!
How did I end up at Lorin Tower in such a short time?!
Who the hell is this guy? Not only is he already a mid-level mage at such a young age, but he can also instantly transfer from Blue Star to Lorraine Tower. Could he be the illegitimate son of Estrel Lorraine?
Fang Yu sat on a chair with his legs crossed. Opposite him was a crystal screen, which separated him and Adameyes.
Adam Myers still maintains his human form, showing his white teeth, holding the bars of the cage, looking like a cotton picker.
On the surface, the two people were only separated by a thin crystal screen, but in fact, they were not in the same space at all.
After Adam Myers was taken into custody, he was imprisoned in a demiplane called "Prison".
Then, this half plane folded the plane space in a cipher-like manner. Adam Myers, who seemed to be only two steps away, was actually in another plane that could not be reached even if a light-speed spacecraft flew for billions of years.
The "internment station" is a place in the Lorin Tower specifically for detaining neutral evil and chaotic evil creatures. After being detained, these creatures will be eliminated or deported depending on the crimes they have committed in the past.
In the Age of the Great Arcane, because the abyss creatures had basically no material value, and most of them had mistakenly entered the main plane due to the ubiquitous space-time rifts in the abyss, and had no intention of settling in the main material plane, these contained abyss creatures would basically be sent back to the abyss.
But some of the capable subordinates of the Abyss Lords are exceptions.
On the surface, the abyss and the main plane do not interfere with each other. Both sides dislike each other's environment, so naturally there will be no conflict.
But in fact, the Abyss Lords of some layers will invade the main plane regularly. They do not want to rule the main plane, but to plunder the spirituality of the main plane in order to bridge the many very unstable spatial rifts in the abyss.
Some rifts were too unstable, giving the Abyss Lords a headache. They often sent a team of demons to attack the Lords of other layers, only to be swallowed by a rift that suddenly appeared halfway through.
For the Lord of the Abyss, the death of some soldiers is nothing, but he may lose the war just because this team of soldiers is not in place.
Therefore, before the Great Arcane Age, every few dozen or a hundred years, the Lord of the Abyss would launch a demonic disaster, launching a large-scale invasion of the main plane and harvesting spirituality, which lasted until the early period of the Great Arcane Age.
In TR1, the twelve legends of the Union of Arcane Law launched a raid on the Endless Abyss, forcing the Abyss Lords of more than 300 layers of the Abyss connected to the main plane to collectively sign a treaty under the city, promising not to launch demonic disasters again.
In exchange, the Arcane Union also established a special agency to regularly send arcane mages to replace spirituality with arcane power to help the Abyss fill the rift.
But even in the Great Arcane Era when the Arcane Union was at its peak, there were still resistance forces such as the Shadow Plane. These forces would still make deals with the Abyss, summon various demons from the Abyss, and do evil in the popular sense.
Adam Myers responded to the call of a low-level wizard from the Shadow Plane. It was his first time responding to the call, but he lost consciousness while passing through the abyss passage. He didn't know if this was normal, but after waking up, he appeared on the Blue Planet.
Fang Yu touched his chin and pressed a button casually. A whip of light appeared out of thin air behind Adam Meyers and hit his back.
Snap! Puff!
Adam Mayes howled silently. If it weren't for the suppression of the laws here, he would have revealed his true form with this whip.
The "Whip of Order" that embodies the power of law is the natural nemesis of abyssal creatures.
"As expected of an Abyss Demon, even though he's just a minor Nabasu from the first level of the Abyss, he's so stubborn. Even under such severe torture, he still refuses to confess."
Fang Yu showed admiration on his face and pressed the button a few more times.
"Pah! Puff! Puff!"
After whipping Adam Meyers several times in a row, Fang Yu actually felt like he was reborn in the Civil War as a southern plantation owner.
"Snap!" Another whip.
Adam Meyers was beaten so hard that he rolled his eyes and roared in his heart.
It's unfair! Who said I didn't recruit? Why don't you ask? You didn't ask me what I recruited?
Fang Yu originally wanted to whip him a few more times, but as soon as he pressed the button, the crystal screen prompted: Your punishment of the prisoner has exceeded the necessary scope. Please ask the prisoner questions as soon as possible. The authority of the Whip of Order will be locked until you ask again.
What the hell?
Well, it turned out to be the White Left Alliance, no wonder it perished so easily.
Fang Yu released the button in disappointment. Adam Myers was so excited that he wanted to shout "The Austrian Federation is wise."
"Oh well."
Fang Yu's eyes rolled. "Suppose G is a finite group with order |G|=60, and H is a subgroup of G."
"Q: If the order of H is 15, explain why this contradicts Lagrange's theorem."
"Also: Assume that the order of a subgroup K of G is 12. Calculate the number of left cosets in G and explain the significance of left coset partitioning."
"Answer it."
Adam Meyers: …
Fuck you.
"Don't tell? Humph! You're still not telling the truth!"
Fang Yu's face darkened and he pressed the button hard.
"Pah! Puff! Puff!"
Adam Meyers was in tears.
Damn it, are you the devil or am I the devil?
You are just looking for an excuse to beat me, right?
How could there be such a mean arcane mage! ?
"Sir!!! I'll tell you!!! I'll tell you!!! I'll tell you whatever you ask!!! You are my father!!! Is that okay???"
Adam Myers, who was confined to human form in the "shelter", had all the natural human reactions, including tears and snot, and the only thing missing was changing into a brown linen shirt and putting a crushed watermelon next to him.
Fang Yu released the button reluctantly, drank a sip of the ice-cold Fiery Sun Essence Liquid in the thermos, and began to formally interrogate the Nabasu.
Adam Meyers didn't dare to play tricks. He knew that the shelter in Lorinta had a way to tell whether he was lying or not. Besides, there was no need to lie, so he recounted his story in detail.
"You're saying you were summoned here in TR 1340? And you woke up in the Great Zhou? It was around 2820? You didn't see the summoner? And how do you know you woke up in the Great Zhou?"
When Fang Yu heard the date calculated by Youzi based on Adam Meyers' confession, his pupils couldn't help but narrow.
Is it TR1340 again?
And this abyss demon awakened in the year 2820 of the weekly calendar?
During the Qianlong era? The Jurchen emperor who loved writing "I've been here" on cultural relics?
Adam Myers smiled apologetically, "Yes, my lord. The Abyss has no calendar. I answered the call when Lord Maduras attacked the 175th layer of the Abyss. Perhaps this happened in the year TR1340 you mentioned. It was only decades later that I learned that the place was called Da Zhou. I didn't understand the language of Blue Star at the time. I only remember that the people there had pigtail-like braids..."
"Pah! Puff, sizzle, sizzle~"
Adam Meyers howled again.
Damn! I said the wrong thing!
That’s not right. This guy is obviously an arcane wizard from the main plane. What does he have to do with the Great Zhou of Blue Star?
Could he be a native of Blue Star?
Impossible. It seems that no one in this strange plane can sense the nodes of the magic network. Otherwise, I would have accumulated enough arcane wizards for sacrifice in the past few hundred years.
"Oh, it's okay, my hand just shook. Go on. Then, how did you get from Da Zhou to Mai Kingdom?" Fang Yu pressed the button again.
There is no demon that will not succumb to the whip of order. If there is, then give it two whips.
Adam Myers twitched for a long time before finally recovering, tears streaming down his face. "My Lord, I didn't want to do that either, but I had just woken up, and for some reason my strength and sanity had regressed to that of my birth. I crawled out of the water and found a few people nearby, intending to devour their spirits to restore my strength. But soon after, I was chased by a group of people on horseback, brandishing weapons and shouting words I couldn't understand..."
Hearing this, Fang Yu had an idea and interrupted Adam Meyers: "Wait, you said you crawled out of the water? You were in the water when you woke up?"
Adam Meyers shrank his neck for no apparent reason, and it was obvious that he was scared of being beaten.
"Do you remember the specific location?" Fang Yu opened a map of the Great Zhou Dynasty and asked Adam Myers to confirm where he woke up.
Adam Meyers grimaced at the map for a long time, thinking, "Who the hell can remember what happened back then? And there were no maps back then, so how would I know where I was?"
But I didn't dare not answer.
"Sir, I was so busy running that I really don't remember where I was." Adam Meyers had a sad face. Seeing Fang Yu's face darken, he immediately said, "But I remember there were tall mountains nearby. Now I think that the water was composed of two lakes, one large and one small. There was ice on the water's edge at the time. It must have been winter, I think."
Did you grow up in Luzhou? And what about the inverted sentence?
Fang Yu was shocked after hearing this.
Sure enough, it was Huaqiao Reservoir and Cuiping Reservoir.
The Rubik's Cube was caught by Gao Mingkai from Cuiping Reservoir that day.
And three hundred years ago, there was indeed a military camp stationed here for a long time.
Was this guy brought here by Rubik's Cube?
Then why did it awaken over 200 years ago? Or was the Rubik's Cube dropped here over 200 years ago?
"Okay, go on."
Fang Yu nodded calmly.
Eh? No whipping?
Adam Meyers was a little uncomfortable for a while.
"Pah! Puff, puff, puff."
Fuck! It’s too early to be happy.
Following Adam Meyers's narration, Fang Yu roughly understood the origin of Nabasu.
It is possible that a catastrophe occurred when this Nabasu was responding to the call of the shadow plane. For some unknown reason, this Nabasu fell into Cuiping Lake along with the Rubik's Cube. After an unknown amount of time, when Nabasu woke up and wanted to devour the spiritual energy of several people to restore his strength, he found that he could not even defeat an adult man. In the end, he could only return to the form of a gargoyle and disguise himself as a sculpture, hiding in a house.
As luck would have it, the family was a smuggling merchant. After seeing the statue, they sold it to a Dutch smuggler.
This group of Dutch people also engaged in the slave trade. After setting out from Da Zhou, they went directly around the Cape of Good Hope to the Gold Coast, intending to first send the slaves and Da Zhou's silk, porcelain and tea to Beimai, and then return to the Netherlands from Beimai.
After getting on the boat, Nabasu found that this environment was simply a paradise.
Bah, bah, bah, it's like returning to the abyss.
The conditions on the slave ships were terrible, and the casualties could sometimes be as high as one-third or even more. But with just this one trip, Nabasu accumulated enough spiritual power to reach adulthood.
But at this time he discovered that the summoning time had long passed, but it was not forced to return to the abyss.
You know, if it cannot return to the abyss smoothly, it will never reach adulthood until the end of its life.
The lifespan of the abyss demon is certainly long, but it is not infinite. If Nabasu cannot reach adulthood, his longest lifespan is only three hundred years.
This made Adam Myers panic. After regaining his strength, he looked everywhere for ways to return to the abyss. He even made a magic circle to summon demons, hoping that through the opened abyss passage, other demons could inform the lord of the first layer, Pei Zuzu, to take him back.
The ending is predictable, it's completely useless.
During this process, because Adam Myers needed to devour the spirits of intelligent creatures, he created a large number of urban legends on the North Mai Continent, such as the Lighthouse Ghost, the Bunnyman, the Alligator Sewer, the Goatman, the Wind Walker...
That is why the ritual of exorcism is more popular in North Mai than in Europ.
When he reached level five, Fang Yu once studied the spell of summoning demons, but he also found that he could not summon demons at all.
The Abyss still exists, and the occasional cracks that appear in the main plane are proof of this. Otherwise, succubi like Claudia would not have been born.
But the abyss seems to have been pushed away from the main material world, and the passage between the two worlds no longer exists.
Adam Mayes could not find a way to return. If he wanted to maintain his life in the main material world, he had to rely on constantly devouring the spirituality of intelligent creatures. However, as human technology and organizational strength became stronger and stronger, it became increasingly difficult for Adam Mayes to obtain spirituality. It was at this time that he disguised himself as a slave of John Adams, a founding father of the country of May.
John Adams was the first to discover his unusualness. After conspiracy, John Adams successfully became the second president of the United States. It was also John Adams who used it to establish the prototype of the "Omniscient Society".
Adams' name is also the origin of Adam Meyers' name.
After John Adams' death, the cunning Nabasu also devoured John Adams' spirit and officially gave himself the name Adam Mayes.
My goodness, if I tell this to others, people will definitely call it a conspiracy theory and urban legend.
After Adam Myers confessed everything, Fang Yu thought about it for a long time, but still did not kill this guy completely. He decided to lock him up in the "shelter" for the time being.
Not to mention an underage Nabasu, even if the demon lord came here, he would have to be locked up honestly, which is safer than anywhere else.
Moreover, after I leave, the time here will stop, so there is no need to worry about any problems.
Fang Yu yawned, switched, and returned to the Chuanbao International Hotel Building. He quickly dealt with the finishing work, and then teleported to Los Santos and went into every nook and cranny.
It’s okay, Da Mimi hasn’t adjusted to the jet lag yet and is in high spirits.
The next day, when Fang Yu switched again and was about to find Adam Meyers to ask for the secret materials accumulated by the Quanzhi Society, he was stunned when he saw Adam Meyers as soon as he switched back to the shelter.
Is this guy asleep?
When did you fall asleep?
It was clearly still awake when I left.
Could it be...
Fang Yu's heart was pounding. He took out a spare phone, turned on the timer at the same time as his own phone, put the spare phone on the table, and then turned on the switch again.
Not long after, Fang Yu switched back again.
Seeing the timer numbers displayed on both mobile phones at the same time, Fang Yu couldn't help but open his eyes wide.
01:03, 01:04, 01:05...
01:03, 01:04, 01:05...
When I returned to Blue Star, the time here moved!
