Chapter 253 038: Time Fragments
The old man said slowly: "After all, I am also curious about what people will be like thousands of years from now."
Thousands of years later, Luo Xi was stunned.
He was surprised and asked, "Is this really the Sigrama Dynasty? Have we really gone back thousands of years?"
The old man smiled and said, "Is there any other explanation?"
Luo Xi shook his head and said firmly: "Impossible, how can magic like time travel exist?"
The most basic time paradox cannot be explained. If he really returned to the previous time and space, then if he made any changes here, how would the subsequent history deal with it?
The old man nodded and smiled: "Not bad, it seems that your basic supernatural knowledge is very solid."
After a pause, he continued to explain.
He raised his hand and lightly drew it in the air. Immediately, a picture of a world appeared in the air, with villages, towns, mountains, rivers and lakes. He then used both hands to enlarge the world, selected one of the towns, and drew a circle around it.
He said: "Just like this, I borrowed the power of magic, selected a part of this world, and circled them out separately."
As he spoke, he dragged the circle outwards, and all the scenery in the circle was pulled out. However, the original world did not change, as if only a part of it was selected from this world and copied.
The old man explained: "The object in this circle is the area I chose at that time. I used magic to pull this area out of this world and formed an independent space."
Luo Xi frowned, looking puzzled: "Copy a part from the world? You mean you copied this town? No?"
Although it is difficult for wizards to simulate a town, it is not impossible. However, simulation and copying are two completely different things.
As I walked and observed along the way, I found that the scenery here is absolutely real, and the people walking on the road are also completely vivid.
If one were to perfectly replicate this real substance, the elemental energy that would need to be mobilized would be simply unimaginable. Even the legendary God of Magic would not be able to do it.
The old man smiled and said, "If you want to copy it from the world, then of course it is impossible. I don't have that much spiritual power, and my friend who assisted me in completing the magic may not be able to do it with his current strength."
"But what if it is taken from time?"
Luo Xi was stunned: "Intercept time?"
The old man nodded, and then drew a line in the air again. Suddenly, a river appeared in the air, flowing continuously into the distance.
He said: "Time is like a river, and we are the fish and shrimp living in this river."
The old man then drew a circle in the river. The river was still flowing, but some fish and shrimp were trapped in it. "I cut off a part of the river from the middle. In this way, I don't have to use elemental energy to copy the world one-to-one. I only need to mirror this part of time."
"The ever-flowing time will never change. Even if I pull out this fragment of time, it will not change anything for the entire river of the world."
As he spoke, he dragged the circle out of the river, and immediately a small section of the river was formed in the air. The original river did not undergo any changes after a part of it was cut off. The fish and shrimp in it continued to swim, as if they were unaware of what had just happened.
Luo Xi was a little confused. Could it be done this way?
This was the first time he had heard of and appreciated such knowledge. The knowledge related to time was quite advanced and was the most top-notch knowledge in the wizarding world. It was far beyond what a little wizard like him could access and understand.
After thinking for a long time, he still had no idea, so he could only say: "Sorry, this is probably beyond my understanding."
“That’s normal.”
The old man nodded: "After all, there are only a few people in the entire Sigrama who can comprehend this level of knowledge. This requires strength. Only when you reach that level can you know the rules about time."
After a pause, he explained simply: "You just need to understand that the world you are in now is not a complete world, but only a part of the original world time, a time fragment. All the scenery, people and creatures you see now, including me, are just parts of this fragment."
Luo Xi seemed to understand a little.
He said, "So, you intercepted a period of time in the original world, so this place appears to be in the past, and the you who is talking to me now is also you in the past."
The old man nodded: "It is like this."
Luo Xi opened his mouth, dumbfounded.
This explanation shocked him no less than turning back time.
It took him a long time to accept the message.
Then, he asked in confusion: "Then this spell was cast by you? Who are you? What is your purpose in casting this spell?"
The old man smiled and said, "So many questions."
After a pause, he performed the noble etiquette first: "Let's get to know each other briefly first. My name is Felix Ando, and I am the bishop of the northwest diocese of the Sigrama Dynasty."
Roshi returned the greeting: "Roshi Herat, nice to meet you."
At this point, he seemed to have thought of something, and looked the old man up and down, his eyes gradually widening: "Felix Sigrama's Eternal Flame Felix, the sixth of the ten great sages of the Eternal Church, and the Eternal Stigma behind him?"
He had seen this name in books. He was a very famous character in Sigrama and one of the top 20 apostles of the Eternal Church at that time.
Felix smiled with a hint of curiosity and said, "Oh? So my future self is so famous?"
Oh my God Luo Xi opened his mouth again and said in confusion: "No way? Doesn't this relic belong to the priestess Natalia? Even as a subordinate of the High Priest Xia, it shouldn't be related to you, right?"
Felix's status in the Eternal Church is no less than that of High Priest Xia.
Felix said, "Natalia? Haha, the one who received you and showed you the way just now was Natalia. I am indeed planning to recommend her to be a subordinate officer to Xia. Does this mean that Xia was successfully promoted to the high priest this time?"
Listening to Felix's words, Luo Xi was a little speechless. After all this time, it turned out to be such a complicated relationship. If I were not in this era, I would not be able to figure it out. I just don't know why Felix is completely missing from the clues of the ruins? Is he drowned in the long river of history?
While Luo Xi was thinking, Felix's expression suddenly became serious: "By the way, I just heard you mention the ruins, can you tell me about the future?"
He asked a little nervously: "What about the future?"
