What?You say His Majesty is a war criminal! !

Chapter 279 Dante’s Time Journey (Please subscribe)

Time is a very complex existence. It is multi-dimensional. The phenomena that people observe depend on which dimension they are in.

Some people think that reaching the past can change the future, and even cause countless forks in the past.

Some people think that time will correct all paradoxes, which is the famous grandfather paradox.

You can say they are wrong, or you can say they are not wrong, because these people have observed too little, like a blind man touching an elephant.

Some people touched the elephant's trunk, some touched the elephant's tail, some touched the tusks, and some touched the elephant's legs. They all spoke about the elephants in their minds.

Are they wrong? No, because that’s what they perceive the elephant to be like, and part of the elephant does look like that.

But they were wrong, because what they said was not what the elephant really looked like.

Human beings are the blind men, and time is the elephant. Human beings only feel a part of time, not all of it.

Human beings are simple creatures with one dimension of time. They can only perceive and live in the present. Some time creatures can swim freely in the long river of time, because they are multi-dimensional time creatures. They can see time more complexly than humans and can do more things.

Qin Zheng is also a human being, but he is different from other human beings.

He can see fragments of the future and everything that has happened in the past.

In his eyes, time is multi-dimensional and can be shaped.

Before Qin Zheng left the First Expeditionary Force, he asked Xu Fu to establish the Time Tribunal to recruit people with special physiques and train them as time agents to hunt down the time creatures lurking in human history.

Its fundamental purpose is to establish an effective defense system.

It would be foolish to simply think that the ancient creatures in the subspace can only deal with human beings by corrupting their souls, launching stupid physical attacks, sending their minions to go to war with the empire, and other such old-fashioned methods.

If they only had this level, they wouldn't be called gods by so many races.

Subspace is a place without reason, order, and rules. It is illusory, a dream, and idealistic.

It can distort everything, even time, even everything that has happened in the past, it can distort it.

Those ancient subspace existences can distort the past and history of a race, silently tamper with it, and completely erase it, thereby turning the entire race into ashes in the universe, taking with it the past. All traces are also erased, so that no one who comes after you can find any trace of the existence of this race.

Time is a very complex thing, and it is also a very fatal thing. It is usually insignificant, but it is the source of the movement of everything.

If humans do not want to resist subspace and are willing to accept their own destiny of destruction, those ancient existences will protect the human timeline and ensure the growth of humans until they become a green leek field and then enjoy a gluttonous feast.

If humanity is to rebel against the Warp, it will need to protect its own time and its ancient symbols, such as Mother Earth.

The war with subspace is a real war, a war in subspace, and a certain kind of metaphysical war.

To protect time, relying solely on the Time Court is not enough. Qin Zheng made two preparations.

The Time Chamber is a bright line, a target that can be seen by the enemy. When a war breaks out, they will attack the visible target first.

Qin Zheng secretly used those time agents to compile a human timeline, connecting the past and the future into one, forming another kind of defense.

Time Agent No. 9527 is one of the threads. Qin Zheng tore his time apart and turned it into an unclosed ring. When the time was ripe, he closed the ring again, thus connecting those times.

In the Cape Town Incident, when Dante was fighting against the Weeping Angels, the descendants of the Supreme God, he was banished to the past by the other party.

With the help of Time Agent No. 9527, he returned to the battlefield and killed the Weeping Angel.

Time Agent No. 9527 only entered the Time Tribunal after the Cape Town incident. Until now, he was sent to deal with the incident of Dante's disappearance and help the other party return to the original time coordinates.

Such an operation goes against the laws of the universe, but the existence of subspace makes everything possible.

"let's start."

Qin Zheng, who was sitting on the throne, smiled. His will controlled the entire empire. Everyone was his pawn, controlled by him to move forward.

A world that doesn’t know the exact point in time, nor the exact name.

All Wingate knows is that this is part of time travel, a transit point that must be passed through.

He wanders among those magnificent buildings, and the crowds on the streets are incompatible with him. Even if he is bumped into, he will forget everything the moment he turns around.

He walked out of the hive city and into the wilderness, and before going deeper, he took out a pointer and a special parchment map.

There are densely drawn icons and symbols on the map. There are no mountainous landforms, only weird colors and obscure icons and symbols.

Ordinary people cannot understand this map because it is a subspace map. It depicts the flow of the ether. On a journey across time, it is a good habit to always pay attention to the ocean currents. Wingate has to make sure that he does not open a path that will lead to his own death.

Under the guidance of the map and compass, Wingate arrived at the target point, a river not too far away from the nest, not too close to the nest, and there was an agricultural town next to it, responsible for planting the invisible farmland around the city. .

The place where Wingate is located is very desolate, there are no mechanical equipment around, and it is night time.

The sky was full of stars, and the breeze blew Wingate's cheek. He checked with his pocket watch and found that the time was wrong. He had to wait until the time was right before he could open the time rift and embark on the right path and arrive at the right place. place.

This wait lasted for several days. During this period, Wingate also witnessed a murder.

A sixteen-year-old young girl was invited to the river by the boy she admired. In the end, she was dragged into the grass by the boy and his companions, who took turns to humiliate her and then strangled to death.

The girl who lost her life was finally thrown into the river by the horrified murderers.

By the time the body was discovered, it was already several days later. After such a long time, all traces of the crime had disappeared.

No one paid the price because the murderer could not be found. The murderers even stood in the crowd and pretended to be sad for the dead girl.

As a witness to the murder, Wingate just stood and watched without doing anything, and people were unaware of his existence.

Wingate saw with his own eyes how the girl died in despair and how her body was dumped by the murderers.

In this process, he can save this cute and cute girl just by moving his hands.

Now, he can still stand up, reveal the truth to those people, and let the real culprit be punished.

But Wingate did nothing. He was indifferent to the girl's tragic death, and he had no intention of seeking justice for her, because all of this happened in the past, and his intervention could not change anything.

As a time agent, he can witness those tragedies and witness those heartbreaking moments, but he can do nothing but watch those good people who don't deserve to die die in pain.

For a long time, people in the world have always felt that good and evil in this universe are rewarded. Wingate thought the same way at first. It wasn't until he experienced more that he realized his stupidity.

If good and evil were truly rewarded, the natural order would have collapsed long ago, and with it the universe. If any animal wants to survive, it must hunt other creatures, even its own companions.

Kill prey, kill enemies, kill fellows, and even kill your own blood parents. The fittest survive, and the dead have nothing. This is survival, this is the normal state of nature, and this is also the normal state of life. It doesn't talk about good or evil. It's good if you can live, and nothing if you die.

Wingate used to prefer his job as a time agent. Every time he performed a mission, he was very happy. But when his authority increased, he received more and more tasks, came into contact with more of the past, and witnessed too many dark secrets and unsavory history, he was no longer happy.

Time agents are neither mysterious nor powerful. They are just workers who protect the human timeline, preventing those time races from wreaking havoc inside and preventing the human timeline from being destroyed.

Changing the past requires time from the future and time from the time traveler. But how can one person's time change the fate of so many people? ?

If there is no way to completely change and only change the fate of a few people, it will be a terrible nightmare for those people.

Without the time that symbolizes the future, those whose destiny has been changed will be stagnant at a certain moment, never able to enter the next second, and thus fall into greater pain.

Their flesh and blood bodies will be imprisoned in the timeless space, but their souls will remain active, and they will eventually be driven crazy alive, unable to die or live.

While people were still crying for the girl's misery, Wingate's pocket watch rang. The time was up and the etheric current had arrived at the correct location.

Wingate opened the time rift and walked in without looking back or showing any pity for the girl's death.

People didn't know that there was a witness here, let alone that he was gone. They just cried for the dead girl and cursed the murderer who committed such a terrible crime.

After crossing the time rift, Wingate arrived in a desert, which was the coordinates of the mission.

But there is nothing here, he still needs to wait, waiting for the target to appear.

Wingate stayed in the desert for several days, until at noon one day, a strong time fluctuation suddenly occurred, and he knew that his mission goal had arrived.

He wrapped himself in the robe that he had stripped off the bodies of dead people in the desert to protect him from the wind and sand, and walked toward the flashpoint indicated by the scanner. He moved quickly and arrived at the target area, near the bursting point of the time flow.

A fierce warrior wearing black armor was looking around blankly in the desert, shouting as he looked.

"Geralt, Geralt, can you hear me?"

"Triss? Triss?"

"Urid? Urid?"

"Rosen?"

"."

This warrior in black armor is the unlucky man sent back to the past by the Weeping Angels - Dante.

He called those names one after another, but only the cold wind in the desolate desert responded to him.

When Wingate approached, he heard the black-armored warrior muttering to himself.

"Illusion, or something else??"

Perhaps because of the warrior's keenness, or something else, when Wingate approached, Dante suddenly turned his head and pointed the sword in his hand at him.

Wingate hurriedly raised his hands, indicating that he had no weapons and was the first.

"Oh, God Emperor, I finally found you."

Hearing this, Dante frowned, his eyes became sharp, and he asked.

"who are you?"

Wingate took out an ID tag with the emblem of a flame-wrapped clock engraved on its surface.

The uneasiness and vigilance in Dante's eyes were much less, but he still did not relax his vigilance.

"Imperial Time Court, Time Agent No. 9527." Wingate took back his identity tag and took off his robe, revealing a troubled face.

"I have never heard of this department. When did the Empire establish the Time Tribunal?"

"There are many things you don't know. This is the will of the God Emperor. He needs someone to maintain the human timeline and prevent someone from causing damage, causing the human race to wither and die. Those guys in the subspace are so bad that they ooze pus, and humans must have enough Only by being careful can you protect yourself.”

"When you were sent here by the Weeping Angels, we detected abnormal time fluctuations in the human timeline. I have spent several days trying to pinpoint your location accurately."

"I just came here." Dante said coldly.

"Time is a very complicated thing and difficult to explain. The only thing I can tell you is that our time is different. You stayed here for more than ten minutes, but when you go back, you will be in the same place, and Time doesn’t flow either.”

Dante frowned slightly after hearing Wingate's words.

"Then where are you now? When??"

"You don't need to know this. What you have to do now is to go back and complete your mission." Wingate took out a pocket watch, "We have to go to a safe place and then send you back. Those bugs are coming soon. Don't you Will want to face them."

"What bug??"

"You don't need to know this, you just need to know that I can take you back safely." Wingate fiddled with the pocket watch in his hand, and Dante showed discomfort.

"Let's go." Wingate pointed to the distorted space ahead.

Dante hesitated, but walked in anyway.

"Those things are really haunting." Wingate looked around, and there was still only the sound of wind and sand, but he knew that the time worms that feed on the abnormal time flow are coming from various points in time.

They would never mind eating a few time travelers. After taking one last look, he walked into the distorted space and disappeared, leaving only the raging storm.

They arrived in the more distant past, at a time when humans had not yet reached the stars and had just walked down from the trees.

The road back to the future is very tortuous, and they must follow that special etheric wind to move forward, otherwise they will risk getting lost.

Time travel and faster-than-light navigation have something in common, that is, they both need to use the mystery of subspace and ether to complete the journey from one place to another.
