Chapter 283 The World in the Hourglass

Cheese was still sitting there, watching the people around him walking past him. He seemed to have been forgotten by this world, and no one could see such an existence holding a wooden stick and wearing strange clothes.

They were still immersed in their lives, as if they didn't care about the routes the ants on the ground were moving. Cheese's expression did not change, because in his blue eyes, they could see a ray of brilliance that was incompatible with the surroundings.

It was the color from the previous cage. Because the cheese had not moved, it remained on the mage, making it impossible for the people in the cage to detect him.

If you want to be perceived, you have to change yourself first. This seems to be the rule between different cages. Cheese shook his fingers slightly, then slowly stood up with a stick. As the magic light on his body changed color, the pedestrians around him began to exclaim. In their eyes, a living person suddenly appeared here.

The gray-robed mage looked at these people. There was nothing strange about their reactions. Does this mean that the things contained here are not these people? But if it weren't for them, why would the teacher imprison a group of innocent people here? No, no, this makes no sense.

Cheese looked up and found a house about five floors not far away. Its eaves were decorated with patterns made of bright colors, which looked very conspicuous.

The gray robe mage used his strength and secretly used spells. With the mutual assistance of the two forces, he suddenly rose from the ground and stepped on the trunk platform of street vendors. The second foot had already reached the eaves of the first floor of the house, the third foot was on the flagpole, and the fourth foot turned on the third floor. The cheese lifted the pepper wooden staff and pressed the bottom of the staff on the wall of the house. The magic made a fulcrum that should not have generated enough power. The gray robe flipped up the fourth floor, and then made the same move, appearing on the fifth floor in the blink of an eye.

The women who were originally standing on the roof enjoying the bustling street scene exclaimed, but the mage had turned to the roof. Standing on the tallest building nearby, Cheese's eyes did not look down, but looked into the distance. The vision enhanced by magic is enough to be comparable to the eagle in a short time.

The mage exhausted his eyes and saw the boundaries of the city and the boundaries beyond the boundaries. Looking around, the entire town is actually quite large, about the size of two valley cities, most of which have two floors, which can accommodate more people. Of course, this is not the point, the focus is on the boundaries of this city, or the cage.

According to what Cheese observed, it is less than a kilometer outside the city wall. This means that the natural output of this world is absolutely impossible to supply the food and drink problems of this population in front of him, and no, even the excretion problem cannot be solved.

Humans actually unexpectedly need a considerable living space. Of course, in the era of more efficient and higher technology, this required space range can be greatly compressed, but it cannot be done in this era. Therefore, this city is by no means as simple as being cut out.

"A illusion? Or something similar?" Cheese looked down at the street view. His eyes saw the reality in those raised eyes, which meant that these people were not false images, or even illusory ghosts. They were as real as him. But that wouldn't make sense, right?

"Hourglass?"

Hourglass is a paradigm. Many people will use this paradigm to describe things that are cyclical, such as spring, summer, autumn and winter, such as night and day. But that is not accurate. The scope of the hourglass is only applicable to the hourglass. The world is not an hourglass, and time is probably not. After everything is over, will everything be reset really be consistent with the previous one? I am afraid it won't.

But now Cheese is not facing these illusory problems. With his experience, if he just drags a city into a time loop like an hourglass, then magic can still be done, just like the former Iron Fort.

The city should have been destroyed at the worst stage of the plague, but its wizard and the lord used the magic that had been arranged long ago to pull the entire city into a state of static, dragging it to the cheese and the others who almost solved the rat-man plague before breaking the spell and letting the dead survive.

Cheese stood on the roof, and he could hear the commotion getting bigger and bigger. Many people seemed to be preparing to climb up to catch this rash outsider. Of course it was impossible. No one here could step on the platform where Cheese was unless they had the ability to break through the gray robe spell.

In fact, cheese can calm the riots. He has at least twenty ways to make these people think that the scene he just saw is just an illusion, and even make them forget to see the existence of cheese.

But he did not do this. There are two best ways to destroy the hourglass. One is to find the gap between the hourglass connecting the two sides, and the other is to disrupt the law of sand flowing and break the so-called cycle.

When doing this, Cheese has no concern at all. He does not ignore the life and death of these people, but does not think that the people here are really alive. If he is simply limited by magic and repeats a date or an experience, then life is not continued, it is just trapped there.

As for whether the people here will die of old age after breaking the hourglass, it is not a very important thing for Cheese today. You can say that too many experiences make him heartless, or you can say that his rational way of thinking makes him cold, but Cheese himself only makes him firm choices and he has absolute trust in his choices.

The riot continued. The mage waved the peppercorn wood wand and made a whimpering sound in the air, allowing more people to look at him and notice him. This behavior is actually very dangerous for people who have just entered a strange environment, but Cheese has a considerable degree of confidence in his abilities and is not worried about the attacks that follow.

Those people seemed not as aggressive as they thought. After seeing the exaggerated and horrifying actions of the gray robe, many of them began to give up and continue to watch and turn away from here. It doesn't matter, because they have seen cheese, and their behavior has changed.

The sky was covered by dark clouds floating from somewhere. People on the street had obvious fear as the sun disappeared and began to burrow into the house frantically. Soon, only the lonely mage was left here, waiting for the source of those fears.
