Chapter 3375 Use the time you create to defeat you
Realizing this, Xia Duo looked at Daphne without much worry anymore, because he knew that the other party could no longer trap him, not because the existence of the divine messenger could help him anchor her past.
But through this series of trials, he discovered a fatal flaw in the other party's time-related magic, which was that it could not act on different events at the same time.
Although the same event may involve very complex connections between people, and may even involve an entire plane, these people are all in the same timeline of manipulation, rather than multiple completely different timelines.
This means that as long as the Illuminati uses this method of manipulating the timeline on him, others don't have to worry about being manipulated.
And the most important thing is that this method only creates a virtual timeline parallel to the current world. As long as it does not cover the current world, it can never exceed the time node of the current world.
To put it simply, although Xia Duo seems to be trapped in a time loop now, time outside the loop can be regarded as stopped, and the time he perceives is the time of the main plane.
If the Illuminati is willing to keep him trapped here, it actually means that the Illuminati's own plan cannot advance at all.
Therefore, Xia Duo speculated that the opponent's purpose for using this method against him was probably to kill him, a key figure in the alliance, but he did not expect that he could retain consciousness (or maintain the continuity of consciousness) in the time loop.
, and even find countermeasures.
At this moment, the initiative in this incident was no longer with the Illuminati. Because he could retain his consciousness, Sha Duo even hoped that the other party would cycle through it a few more times to buy time for him to study the details of the ritual he had collected from Teardrop Lake.
This is something Xia Duo never dared to think about before, letting his enemies serve him.
And if the opponent no longer cycles, then Shado will unceremoniously use the characteristics of the divine envoy to anchor those local battlefields where the alliance has already won, thereby stabilizing and ensuring a minimum winning rate.
…
As Shado thought, Daphne is indeed in a dilemma now. If she continues to create a new timeline, it will only allow Shado, who can retain consciousness during the birth and death of the timeline, to collect more information.
At the same time, the Illuminati's plans will come to a standstill in the process, not to mention the price she pays for it.
But if Xia Duo is let go, it is obvious that Xia Duo has found a way to counter the timeline tactics. Once Xia Duo is let out of trouble, it will probably lead to the collapse of the entire plan.
Between letting go and not letting go, Daphne felt extremely embarrassed.
So she could only repeat the previous operation, but the "reversal" time interval was much shorter, almost reversing every second or two.
Although it is uncertain how many details about time-related magic Shado will be able to learn in this process, Daphne is more worried about the risk of overall collapse caused by Shado's escape.
And she also needs to find a way to truly solve the other party in this constant "cycle".
…
On Xia Duo's side, the time reversal every one or two seconds did cause him considerable trouble. He tried several times, but the two divine envoys could not send him a message within one or two seconds.
Once he fails to receive a message from the divine envoy, the two parties will not be able to form a connection that is sufficient to anchor the past. As a result, although he can retain consciousness in the reverse flow of time, it will be difficult to organize effective research, let alone going backwards (at this moment)
Future direction) advances the opponent's countercurrent node.
Countercurrent for one or two seconds and countercurrent for one minute have completely different effects.
Of course, for Xia Duo, the shorter the past that the other party can change, the better, while for the Illuminati, the longer the past that can be changed, the better.
Even if we could reshape a new history from the moment the Illuminati was born, we wouldn't have the troubles we have now.
But reshaping history or reshaping the timeline is not a simple matter, nor is it cost-free.
Although Xia Duo is a little troubled at the moment, after all, he has to go back to the past every one or two seconds, which makes everyone feel uncomfortable, but fortunately, his consciousness can still maintain continuity during this process. Now is the time to compete with Daphne in terms of will.
Whoever can't bear it first will lose.
Although high-frequency time reversal makes people feel very uncomfortable, but everything is afraid of comparison. Compared with Shado, Daphne not only has to endure such an experience, but also needs to pay the additional price of manipulating the timeline.
Isn't this more uncomfortable than Xia Duo?
And because consciousness can remain continuous, although Chateau cannot use tools outside of consciousness, consciousness itself can also carry out organizing, analytical and research work beyond practical operations.
Just spend it like this and see who can spend it more!
…
Finally, after two days in Sha Duo's perception of time, Daphne finally couldn't hold on any longer. She did not immediately stop controlling the timeline, but asked Sha Duo at the beginning of each cycle:
"What on earth did you do?"
It's a pity that Daphne is not the human mage in the movie, and Chateau is not Dormammu.
The time loop started from the other party being silent for one or two seconds, and now he has started to speak actively. Xia Duo still doesn't understand that the other party is at the end of his rope!
And it’s only been two days, who are you looking down on!
Since the loop lasted only one to two seconds, Xia Duo simply gave up on the incarnation. Everything else that the body was doing was actually impossible to do. While retaining the basic vigilance of the avatar, he concentrated on analyzing the data collected during the previous operation at Teardrop Lake.
.
Two days have passed. Since he cannot borrow the intelligent brain and computing power pool (because these two kinds of assistance cannot maintain continuity in the time loop), his own processing speed is actually a bit slow.
Especially in the past, I was used to the assistance of the computing power pool and the intelligent brain. Now it feels like it has suddenly become a sluggish speed, but two full days are enough to eliminate a considerable amount of useless data.
The data collected through the alliance mages and psychic detectors at that time was all the magic network data that could be collected in the ritual center, not just the ritual-related data. It was simply impossible to collect only the ritual-related data during the magic network riots.
If you can do this, it actually means you have a very good understanding of the details of the ceremony.
Chateau needed to eliminate the background parameters of the magic network as much as possible by comparing the trend of the magic network riots before and after the ritual went out of control in Operation Teardrop Lake, leaving only the details related to the ritual.
This is a very huge project, and Xia Duo has been prepared to fight for several years, but he didn't expect that Daphne would be exhausted after just two days.
"You must persist! If you persist for a few more years, I will be able to completely analyze the previous rituals at the Teardrop Lake!"
No matter how much time you experience in the time loop, as far as this world is concerned, it will always be just the one or two seconds of the loop.
In other words, Daphne is destroying the plan she insists on with her own hands at the moment. The longer the cycle goes, the better the effect of the destruction will be.
