LOL: The dark goddess covets me!

Chapter 71 Return to Shadow Isle

"Such a dangerous thing should not be done by you!" Cassili was the first to disagree, and refused sternly.

"Teacher, you should think about it again." Tai said.

Saisha also dissuaded him: "I know you are eager to return to reality, but you don't have to worry at all. Even if Cassili travels back to reality and stays for decades, it will be our present time point to return."

Josh shook his head, "What I'm worried about is not entirely about time, but about risk."

He glanced sideways at Kieran, who was silent beside him, "Did you tell them that we haven't been able to observe reality for a long time?"

"This..." Kieran scratched his beard in embarrassment, "Because I don't need it, so... I only told Cassiri privately."

The original time anchor point was calculated based on Josh entering the time gap at that time.

At that time, they could still observe the development of part of reality, and Kieran's contact with Cassiri came from some time in the future.

However, the longer Josh left reality, in the next few decades, the time branch born due to his existence was gradually covered by the shadow of time, making it difficult to observe the reality.

Because of this, in order to avoid the emergence of space-time causality paradox, Zieran has not accepted new members for a long time.

In addition, at that time, Josh was eager to project the time clone into reality to talk to Ari, and there was a reason for this.

Josh was a little angry at Kieran's "irresponsibility", pointed at his nose and cursed: "You old man!"

The other apprentices were dumbfounded.

Afterwards, Josh went straight up the stairs and walked to Cassiri's side, with powerful hands clamped on his shoulders.

"Teacher... Please trust me!"

Cassili patted his chest confidently, but Josh could still see the fear of the unknown future hidden deep in his eyes.

"It's not a matter of belief or disbelief." Josh shook his head seriously, "We can't observe reality, so we can't be sure what era this time-space jump will go to."

Josh thought for a moment and continued: "It's okay if it's the future, but if you go to the fixed past, based on your experience, there may be trouble."

Over the past 200 years, Josh and Kieran have also studied the mysteries of time, but the direction of the strategy is different.

Kiran focuses on the study of time, causality and philosophy, with practice as an aid.

However, Josh was completely opposite to him. The theory he studied was only to better study the application of time magic.

In addition, Josh seldom learns about the thinking between "philosophy" and the complicated and obscure "cause and effect".

After all, Josh is very talented in learning magic, and even if a genius comes into contact with a field that he is not good at, his learning speed is often faster than ordinary people.

If you compare Kieran, who has also learned time magic, with Josh, Josh's theory is no better than Kieran, but the various applications of time magic can be said to be better than Kieran.

Although it was the first time to transmit a living body through time and space, Josh could see at a glance that there was no flaw in this time-space jump gate in theory.

And a physical experiment was carried out, and the time robot returned unharmed, which proved its feasibility in practice.

But the key to the problem of traveling through time and space this time lies in the uncertainty of reality.

If there is the slightest accident, Casili will cease to exist.

Or, this apprentice, who is far less proficient in time than the two mentors, goes back to the past and touches some taboos, which affects the already fixed time node, which is likely to cause time turmoil. destroy.

"As I said, I have a world rune, which can guarantee that I will not die, but you are different, Cassiri, you only have one life."

Josh's seriousness is just like how he taught his apprentices how to deal with time and space magic correctly in the past, he is meticulous and does not allow any mistakes.

Cassiri frowned and winked, with a troubled expression on his face, his eyes skipped over Josh, and looked at Kieran below.

"Are you really going to do this?"

Kieran sighed, "You know it well, it would be fine if you travel to the past, you can go back, but if it's the future...

"Although in that case, we can dispel the shadow of time, but the anchor point of time is fixed."

After a long silence, Josh asked, "When is the time point of the main world?"

"It has reached the end of the Rune Wars." Kieran replied, "The first king Oren is about to lead the refugees to the western part of Valoran to establish the Kingdom of Demacia."

"Has it been so long..." Josh couldn't help murmuring.

Obviously, less than 200 years have passed in the gap between time and decades ago, he still projected his clone into reality, and saw Ahri who was not long after the Great Destruction.

But now, the main world time that can be observed has passed 300 years.

How many years have passed since the reality, and how long Ahri has been waiting for me...

Josh felt bitter in his heart.

"Time is such a complex and wonderful thing," Keelan said.

[Are you sure you want to do this?For your little apprentice? 】

"We have been together for more than 100 years. The friendship as a friend far exceeds that of a master and apprentice. I can't let him die."

[Accidents may not necessarily happen. 】Lunicia's voice was dull, 【But you, are you mentally prepared? 】

"I should be the one asking you this." Josh smiled. "There is a certain chance that we will get lost in the turbulence of time and space. We cannot survive or die. It is more torture than staying in this time gap."

[Stop scaring me, do you think I haven't learned time magic for so many years? 】Lunicia snorted, 【You are avoiding my question. 】

Josh was silent for a moment, "The timeline of the main world has only passed three hundred years, and the reality should not span too long."

【oh?Are you that confident? 】

"..."

Josh cleverly changed the topic: "Do you still want to lift the seal?"

【You...Damn it!Which pot you really can't open and which pot to lift! ] Lunicia gritted her teeth and said, 【I suspect you have been using 'unseal' to control me!In your eccentric terms, what is it called... chopping? 】

"PUA?" Josh smiled, "I've told you many times, it's definitely possible to lift the seal, you have to be patient."

[Patience, patience...you fucking started again! ] Under the influence of Josh, Lunisia will always lose her self-cultivation as a scholar, 【I have been patient for 200 years! 】

"Aren't we going back now?"

Lunisia snorted coldly and stopped speaking.

There was a long silence in the air again, and the atmosphere gradually became dignified.

Twenty or thirty apprentices in the huge hall stared at Josh who was communicating with Lunicia, but no one said anything.

Seeing this, Cassili took the initiative to break the silence: "Teacher, I..."

"There's no need to say more." Josh raised his hand to make a stop gesture, took a deep breath and said, "I've made up my mind."

There was a warm smile on the corner of his mouth, and he patted Cassiri's shoulder twice.

"Mr. Josh!"

"There's no need to persuade him any more. You all know Josh's temperament. Ten Ernuk cows will not be able to pull back what he decides."

Kieran interrupted the apprentices, and looked at Josh seriously, "Are you sure you are ready?"

Josh nodded without hesitation, "If possible, please set the coordinates in the sparsely populated Mang River Delta."

……

……

The process of time and space jumping was very smooth, far beyond Josh's expectation.

He didn't even use the power of the world rune, he just passed through the green time element barrier generated by the ring arch, feeling the dizziness and dizziness for a moment.

When he regained his composure, the environment in front of him suddenly changed.

It was cold and biting, as if the wind that could touch the soul was blowing from all directions.

The environment in front of me is misty and gloomy, absurd and desolate, with superficial or ferocious cracks all over the earth, turbulent currents in the sky, and thunderbolts flickering in the billowing black clouds.

The rustling and inexplicable ravings came to my ears from time to time, like the cruel prelude to death, the eternal lament played by the death singer.

And what enveloped the surroundings was a mass of evil black mist that could continuously draw life.

It's like a picture scroll of a hellish nightmare.

This is the Shadow Island, which is hundreds of nautical miles away from the transmission coordinates of the small island in the Mang River Basin.

"Now is the future, the key is when." Josh spoke in his mind, looking around, "I thought everything would go well."

The magic power in his body surged, and Josh drew arcane runes with one hand, propping up an arcane barrier around his body.

While isolating one's breath, it also prevents the cursed black mist from drawing one's own life.

But after only a moment of hesitation, a distorted soul hidden in the vicious mist appeared, howling and roaring at Josh, almost about to attack.

【Oh, this is not a good sign. 】
