Chapter 109 The Prisoner's Dilemma
"But something like fate is born to be broken."

Regarding the theory of fate that flashed in his mind, Kaos shook his head speechlessly.The change of time and place will inevitably bring about a change of mentality, and a little frustration is no big deal for him.

If the track of time has been explored, then it means that fate will follow.He who can control time can control destiny.Because no matter how small the possibility is, the success rate is inevitable with infinite time as the base.Regarding whether he could return to the earth, Kaos had never been even [-]/[-] uncertain about it.

Now that the gear of fate has been grasped, it is only a moment before the trajectory of this world is completely overturned.At least it was only a moment for Rosalind and Nya who were waiting in the time and space over there.

The sage in black robe thought for a while, then sat up slowly, took out a map and spread it on the wooden table in the room.

This is the map he prepared in advance before coming to this point in time.In many cases, memory will subjectively distort the views and locations of many things, but objects will not show any awkward emotions.So for the sake of safety, Kaos resolutely brought the map ten years ago to this era as his own coordinate reference for his own judgment.

According to the sky sages, it is better for time travelers to consciously conceal their identities.No one would accept the fact that their world was tampered with at will, not even the sages.Even Olisis himself fought a war with himself beyond the timeline at a certain time, and finally destroyed the worldview that had been destroyed under the throne of the dead god on the God of War Day, and went completely mad The sky sage was killed on the spot.

But the most thrilling scene should be the reference provided by the sage of the earth.A total of fourteen sages from different time periods hunted down the world line. In the end, he resolutely ran to the near era, and lived as another mage for 50 years. Only when the timeline was cleared did he barely return to reality.

This amounts to an obvious question.Just when you thought you were the only master of the world, an inexplicable time traveler showed up and told you that you were just offshoots.Even if you can be sure that these decades have really been spent, there will always be some unnatural emotions in your heart.And when the time traveler's prophecies are fulfilled one after another, this emotion will gradually evolve into fear, and finally turn into a real killing intent to feed back to the reckless traveler.

This is not alarmist talk, but a personal report from the sage of the earth.This crazy humanist once tried to establish a cross-timeline strategy to defeat the entire heaven and hell in one fell swoop, but it is a pity that the timelines are relatively non-overlapping.It is indeed possible to interact with each other, but only one traveler can appear on a node as a factor of change.Moreover, the timeline as a threshold and continuation product cannot go back to the main world, which is still the product of the report provided by the sage of the earth.The reason for being able to determine that it was originally the main world was because they went back and forth over and over again to determine it.

The experience summed up by these tireless predecessors is that it is best not to provoke the bottom line of the sages who extend the world.Even if they are extensions, they are still out-and-out sages, and they can also jump timelines.If you want to go back and break through the timeline threshold, you have to ask the group of aboriginal sages what they think.

After all, even the same person will have different opinions on the same thing at different times. Although Kaos is a time traveler, he is not arrogant enough to single-handedly challenge the sixth ring of the world's mages.

"Although there is a map, how to get in is not too small a problem."

Looking at the markings on the map, Kaos tapped the desktop in distress.

Rather than saying that this is a map from ten years ago, it is better to say that it is a life manual of the royal capital ten years ago.

The shabby-looking map was a full five square meters in size, which greatly exceeded the area of ​​the room's desktop.Fortunately, Kaos doesn't need the surrounding maps for the time being, so there is no big problem in folding them.

In order to better carry out his plan, Kaos made a detailed mark on the map.Including the general changes in the ethnicity of the surrounding population and the impact of several policies are described in secret words in the collection logo above.The map that directly copied dozens of related books as reference materials is simply an encyclopedia of the capital for this era.

The entire capital is divided into six regions.In the past, it was not one of the real core areas of the mainland, but recently, due to the increasingly dense haze, the garrison population has become less and less.Moreover, the appearance of the emperor's entertainment restrictions made the flow of people in the entire capital even more frustrating.Although the foreign population has brought a considerable resident population and capital flow, the real core area, the aristocratic residential area of ​​the entire royal capital, still looks like three or two big cats and kittens.It's chilling to be so empty.

And relatively, as a slum area, it is naturally unwelcome.It is more correct to say that it is a so-called slum area, rather than a prison area.After directly issuing the prohibition order, the army is used to restrain and govern, and has the right to kill at will.In the entire capital, anyone who has committed any crimes will be thrown into the slums without saying a word.Although it can't talk about the dark side of the king's capital, let alone a place where humanity has fallen.But the two most popular occupations in it are still Goldfinger and Liuying.The nobles and the emperor also want to get rid of this cancer, but there will always be an endless stream of poor people and criminals in this world, so it is better to simply centralize the jurisdiction.

And regularly, they will conduct concentrated clean-up and encirclement of criminals in a certain area defined as a virus.The executors are usually new knights and their companions.Knight's Pilgrimage was the name given to justify this siege.Five years later, Kaos, a young man in the slums, will kill several knights to get the appreciation of the wizard, and finally walk on the road of the sage.And now, five years ago, there would be a crack in the mechanical realm, allowing Kaos to get enough data and information to make up his theory.

"First of all, the trajectory of the test field must be determined, and then the coordinates can be determined." Looking at the enclosed land that is two-thirds the size of a slum area, Kaos felt that this was simply a difficult task that couldn't be more difficult. activity.

In this world, he cannot use time to stop and turn back for his own benefit.Because he is a time stowaway himself, it is very possible that a disagreement will directly demolish the entire capital.If a large-scale time power is used, no, even if the time power is used, it will be observed.It's no fun being caught by a sky sage.

And that proving ground of the hell wasn't built in real space.Instead, it used the method of virtual replacement to construct it in the demiplane, and carried out patrol operations on the slums to extract the power of the leylines to make up for its own weakness.There's no good way to find that goddamn proving ground other than a capture under the must-have path.Moreover, as a small matter such as the experimental crack trajectory, as a product of automation, there is not even a word mentioned in the report.They were more focused on the failed experiment itself.

Crown Town is quite reliable as a distribution point in this day and age.There is almost no need to worry about anyone coming to make ward rounds, let alone worry about the impact of His Majesty's orders.At least that Emperor His Majesty did not have the habit of massacring his courtiers.As a gathering place for nobles, Crown Town can be said to be an excellent observation place carefully selected.But who will collect the data is a big problem.

Although it seems that the problem can be solved with human charm, but if you really want to find a person with spiritual sense as a guide, human charm will almost inevitably cause accidental triggering.That mage-controlling sage Olisis will never be idle.From the perspective of the original world, the character that was almost the most favorable was the worst enemy ten years ago. This feeling is really uncomfortable.What's more, Kaos didn't have the confidence to defeat Olisis.In any case, it is also the ring of the sky, the overlord of the sky, playing tricks on his territory, the quasi-sage Kaos really doesn't have much confidence.

"The second point is to get in touch with the Mechanical Realm if possible. Even if necessary, you must maintain the stability of the Mechanical Realm by yourself. And you must get the method of entering the Mechanical Realm, at least in the Stationed there for three years for mental preparation of intelligence analysis.” After drawing a circle with a pen on the slums to indicate the focus of care, Kaos frowned and drew a necessary mark on the conceived machine world, Demonstrates a determined sequence of actions.

As a mechanical realm that is extremely similar to the earth's technological system, it would be unbelievable to say that the theoretical model and the specific crystal wall method of the world's existence are completely different from the earth plane.Moreover, judging from the outflowing mechanical realm products, there is still a clear division of lines and determination of functions, and concepts such as miniaturization still do not appear.From the point of view of the means of technological display, it is almost the same as the memory of the earth at the end of the 21th century and the beginning of the [-]st century.This is even more of a benchmark.

From the deduction of hell, heaven and the world of the undead, then the mechanical environment is relatively certain to interact and correlate information with similar interfaces.From this, it can be inferred that the possibility of intercommunication between the earth technology and the mechanical world is a matter of course.Although the universe model of the earth's technological system is really hard to remember, even if it is a one in ten thousand possibility, it is worth a try.

"Goal [-], to find qualified guides and bring them to the demiplane without using time magic. Goal [-], to maintain the opening of the mechanical crack and collect data. Goal [-], to suppress the violent mechanical king and communicate into the machine territory."

Looking at the three targets on the parchment, Kaos suddenly had the illusion that he was looking for a dead end.

The power he can exert as a stowaway is definitely not too high, even if he can suppress his own power, but as long as high-level elements are involved, he will definitely be noticed by the sky sage.Moreover, with the personality of that mage-controlling person, he will definitely do everything possible to abduct and persuade him, and guide that mage to the 'regular' path.

After all, he was a person who wouldn't get angry when a new mage pointed his nose and scolded him.Once time travel is involved, Kaos doesn't know what he will do when he confirms that he is a branch product and cannot be traced back.

"The prison of time, no, is it the prison of fate...?"

Looking at the perfect cage constructed due to the time difference, Kaos frowned deeply.

　It feels so good to dig foreshadowing... the first update~
